Sleepover time!
Would you rather: a) get to play relationship counsellor between Armand and Lestat for a night, or b) get to dress Armand up in a little outfit for a photoshoot (bonus points for telling us what outfit either way)
Sleepover Asks!
Armand would hate what I want to dress him in, so I’m gonna go with Lesmand relationship counselor! And honestly, I would love to get them on a therapist’s couch lmao they need it. Lestat could practice telling Armand how he really feels about him instead of writing it in a book!
I think they’re in a decent place by the end of Blood Communion, but they have a long way to go! And I just wonder if Armand would’ve given that Big Speech™️ to Lestat if he knew all the passionate and worshipful things Lestat wrote about him, how much he loved him, how he listed him next to Louis and Gabrielle. Because sometimes I walk away from VC with the impression Armand hasn’t read a single one of Lestat’s books post-TVL. Because there’s what Armand knows and what Lestat feels, right? Like, Armand had to find out Lestat ever loved him by reading it in TVL in 1985. Meanwhile, Lestat has felt that way since 1781.
But also, maybe Armand has read all the books, and maybe that’s what makes Lestat’s lack of direct communication hurt even more! The kind of thing where it’s like—why would you say it to the world and not to me? Which really comes down to something something ‘if I loved you less, I might be able to talk about it more’, but it still hurts! :(

I kinda like the small yet big detail in the game, like I'm sure myself and some other people were expecting a wholesome dating sim that would also get quite spicy (FROM HOW WE KNOW MERU)
And we all just kinda got kicked in the butt, like Starling being too hot to be true yet so terrifying at the same time, but not the terrifying kind that we know, like Micah or Silas etc
More like the type that makes you forget that he still is more a siren than a merman, like he successfully managed to lure in the whole community with his hot ass😭😭and then we get backstabbed by him munching our fingers off as if they're some carrots, like as a simple lunch snack-💀💀
Or in the other ending where it's basically simply Mae dying and getting turned into a possession and probably just another body to fill up with tongues
From my interpretation, Starling doesn't really have that kind of romantic interest in Mae, but she kinda thought it could go into that direction, but then got stabbed in the back like that😭😭(probs everyone who played it, thought like Mae there too kinda💀so we all got the betrayal🙁)
And you guys did a really good job in simply catching us all off guard in most scenes, it's it's beautifully written and drawn, I love that game so much!!!
Spoilers for the game
Honestly maybe Sel would give a different answer but I do think Starling likes Maelyn. Due to his past and what he has now become his way of showing it is probably different, but for Starling I don't think Maelyn is just another body for storing tongues. If that was the case he wouldn't have went out of his way to clean her body up, find a wedding dress and "marry" her in his own makeshift way.
He probably didn't even view it as a betrayal. Because until the very end Starling was making sure the no longer breathing Maelyn could be comfortable in her pearl necklace.
For the writing style, probably Sel writing the story played a big part in this.
Sel and I have very similar tastes in a lot of things, on levels I myself can't believe sometimes. But we do have a different style at how we depict similar concepts.
I love presenting dark stories on a silver platter. Prettied up with the most delicious icings and shiniest sprinkles. I like my stories and characters to look beautiful. Enjoy them while thinking you're just having whimsy adventures only to realize you're done for once you truly look. Like Silas. It's easy to make fun of him, forget the things he is capable of doing as you're too busy enjoying his silliness. He feels safe, a gentle giant who loves and takes care of you.
But he's still a man who has forced himself on you not only physically but also mentally. Trapped and limited you beyond belief. No electricity, no internet, no contact with anyone other than him. Only talking to him, only feeling him, only knowing him, only consuming him. A beautiful and sweet man no human mind can handle for more than a few weeks.
But Sel, from what I've seen, is a bit different. She doesn't shy away from showing the darkness and scariness of the stories she makes. Before you even know it you'll be facing concepts you didn't think could be possible.
And not only that, she hides so much under every word she uses. Often times the things she places in front of you are not even the scariest parts. The more you read and the more you decipher they get deeper.
I'm frankly a big fan of the things she writes. They often leave me flabbergasted (and mortified, she knows what I mean) but they are also so so fun. So scary yet beautifully poetic.
I know she doesn't like being under the spotlight that much. But ever since I met her and saw her stories I wanted more people to get the chance to see and appreciate them the way they deserved. I think they are truly special, and they make me want to do my best to illustrate them in the perfect way possible.
Honestly I'm not sure if I'm good enough at it, but if it helps the stories reach more people I'm happy with it.
I don't know if she'll read this post so that's why I'm being sappy like this but I genuinely hope you guys like her stories like I do. And I hope both you and I can see more and more of it.

Elriel fan here. There was a quote in Sandy’s IG about Suriel, ACOTAR 6, etc. it says ≈“ACOTAR 6 may break us all before it heals”
Theoretically speaking, what if it’s about Elain and Azriel getting together, happily living, but for some logically explained reason, they break up (readers are obviously sad) and Elain gets together with Lucien. Because millions of years ago SJM said that Lucien and Elain will heal together (on that screenshot)
What if Elriel is indeed a redherring? It would definitely turn me off the series. What the fuck? You’ve had all that built up and then you change it in one book? Disappointing. ACOTAR is the easiest to read out of all her other books and 101 fantasy recommendation for beginners. Elain and Az want each other, forbidden romance, the mating bond gets questioned, and 3/3
(literally read any romance book and it’s the same as fated mates — everywhere; the last series I read: MC ends up with her best brother’s friend, her brother ends up with her bestie #1, MC’s bestie #2 ends up with a new character that was introduced and had chemistry with her since 1st book, and MC’s bestie #3 ends up with the new character’s best friend 💀 or the fantasy one about Italy, devil, witches, etc, where MC ends up with the biggest villain (same concept as Feysand) and MC’s sister ends up with the villain’s brother + love triangle with some chick)
Other theory about the phrase, what if it might be more about Elain and Azriel can’t be together, arranged marriage but her chosen love is out there in the House of Wind, angst, longing, charged glances (as we’ve seen), and mating bond breaking??
I mean isn’t that every Mass book? Its not rlly a stretch to assume Acotar 5/6 will be angsty/break us. There are so many possible emotional aspect to the book.
Thing is the book is only focusing on one couple so we aren’t going to get side relationships meaning a couple such as elriel aren’t going to break up and then get with other people. Also for that theory to work you’d need to have 3 povs: Lucien, Azriel and Elain but the book, like acosf, will only have two povs of the characters that will enter a relationship plus I dont see any logical reason for elriel to break up. Imagine telling readers for books that these two characters work well together, having them go through so many obstacles only…to not make it? If this was a continuous duology with multi pov, I can then see this theory playing out but since this is a two pov romantasy - I dont think this theory works personally. I cant remember when exactly that interview was from but its interesting how there was nothing explicitly romantic about elucien said. Healing ≠ romance, two people can help each other to heal and grow without being in a romantic relationship. Elain and Lucien mutually rejecting the bond can help them grow with 1) Elain making a choice and allowing it to be heard even though its not what people expect from her and 2) Lucien realising he doesn’t have to subject himself to being miserable w elain just because she’s his mate. That he has the right to choose love for himself and not abide to what Society expects of him nd I think through this both of them will heal as well.
Nah, no author spends that much buildup, foreshadowing and iconic romantic scenes for a couple thats a red herring. And I think Mass isnt even going for shock factors w her couples like she did with Feylin -> feysand and tog. Her acotar couples are pretty obvious and straightforward which elriel is. Its also a waste of her time because both elucien and gwynriel are heavily undeveloped and not foreshadowed in Sjms usual style for acotar. If elriel were never the plan then by acosf at least, Mass would hve forgotten elriel and focused on Elucien/Gwynriel instead she confirms elriel are attracted to each other and leaves them on a charged glance letting readers know there is something between them as for elucien - Elain is literally uncomfortable around Lucien and for gwynriel, well. They aren’t a thing at all in the book.
acotar is a pretty easy fantasy series to start with. Most of the plottwists are obvious, most characters are likeable and you enough gut-wrenching scenes balanced out with heartwarming, funny ones. I think Acotars simplicity is partly the reason why antis exist - they cant believe a series is so simple and straightforward therefore try to find deeper meanings and connections in scenes where there is none. Most romantasy books follow the same formula and its very tight circle and filled w cliches which is part of the fun in the genre.
I lean towards this one slightly more because you get the angst and it follows the formula of the book. Elain and Az seperated and being upset and angsty that for elain, az rejected her and for Az, he was told to stay away from her all until some forced proximity plot brings them together 😏

Do you have any head canons on how the Faroff universe and Specter universe do if they met each other?
OOOOOOOH I love hearing about Specter, it's so underrated and deserves so much more credit & attention than it gets!
I'm going to split this so it doesn't take up the entire screen of people who might just want to scroll past, this got way too long-
Well, there's what Lennon said on her story on Instagram once... If I remember correctly, she said that Tobias & Fenn would be fascinated by the concept of Specter existing inside a robot body... And some other stuff that I vaguely remember but won't try to quote because I don't want to make a fool of myself LMAO. I do remember that what she said fit pretty well with what I already headcanoned about them possibly meeting though.
First off, I think Adam and Tobias would get on very well considering they're both sort of "inventor" types that love to build things and figure out how stuff works. I think Tobias would be absolutely fascinated by Adam's machines and probably ask a shit ton of questions about how they all work. Much to Adam's delight I'd imagine, he's probably just been waiting for someone to ask about them.
Adam is definitely the type to admire Tobias' woodworking skills too. He'd probably be as aggressively supportive as Fenn is on that particular subject tbh. Especially since Adam seems to be accustomed to far more advanced technology than Fenn & Tobias have access to, so I think Adam would be blown away by what Tobias can achieve with far less resources. (It might even remind him of the sculptures in Specter's attic, which Tobias would probably highly admire as well... Although in a world where these two universes are actually canonically connected, I imagine the sculpture of Tobias up there might blow up some big mystery 👀)
I think Adam and Fenn would get along too. I've talked to several people who think Adam & Fenn have similar energy/Adam reminds them of Fenn (or vice versa), and I agree in quite a few ways, so there's that. Don't get me wrong, their personalities are vastly different, but the way they physically express themselves (they have a lot of similar expressions/body language) and the way they talk (the absurdly proper wording lmao) can be very similar. I think they might feed off that energy and be even more over the top than usual...They might start accidentally elbowing people with how dramatically physical their body language could get.
Fenn, of course, would probably also be fascinated by the machines like Tobias, and probably ask a bunch of questions as well. But, for some reason, and this might sound oddly specific, but I have a weird hunch about it...I think what they ask would be different. I think Tobias would be asking more about the inner workings of the machines (as in, how separate parts of it function or how Adam built them) and Fenn would be asking about their purpose (as in, what Adam built them to do.) I have no clue if I'm just absolutely bullshitting rn, but yeah.
Okay WOW this is getting long (I feel bad for the people who send me asks 💀)
Luckily, Specter is a bit simpler. He's an absolute sweetheart so he gets along with everyone. As Lennon said, both Tobias & Fenn would probably be fascinated by Specter's state of being, and have a lot of questions for him initially. I can see Tobias in particular asking about the radio and how Specter's voice works. Not that I think they have much of an answer for that...
I can also see Fenn helping Specter make a nice pot of tea & some snacks while Adam & Tobias go off to nerd out over their shared love for machines. Actually, the more I think about it, the more I think Fenn & Specter would be a great friendship duo. Fenn could teach Specter the recipes he knows, and they'd honestly probably be able to relate with each other over the whole "having to reinvent yourself and your entire worldview" sort of deal. For very different reasons of course, Fenn was brainwashed & Specter just literally forgot everything because he died, but still. Both of them have been in that sort of place where they don't even really know who they are or what their purpose/direction in life is anymore.
OKAY if I thought more I'd probably almost definitely have more stuff to say but I'm really talking y'all's ears off SO YEAH
Thanks for the ask!!!! ❤❤❤

Maybe this is just me being a christian in the good omens fandom, but a lot of people say Aziraphale's arc needs to end with him *entirely* dismantling his religious beliefs and stop following God, and I would disagree (I do have religious trauma, so hear me out 💀)
Yes, it was VERY necessary for him to learn that heaven didn't have humanity's best interest at heart. In fact, the archangels are incredibly selfish. Questioning their morals led him to stop armageddon with Crowley. But as the narrator of season one, God is somewhat mysterious, even cheeky ("a dealer who won't tell you the rules, and who smiles all the time"). I don't think we're SUPPOSED to dislike her as a character, but we're meant to question whether heaven is really carrying out her plan.
I often see heaven as the equivalent of a corrupt church; the kind that scares you with hell, says they have power over the bible so you should listen to them, and asks you for donations when they'll probably just spend it on themselves. They're toxic.
Crowley is wise to want to distance himself as much as possible. But I can't say Aziraphale is wrong for wanting to fix it. Heaven existing at ALL isn't the problem, it's the way it's conducted. If they really cared about the earth, they could help people. Crowley saved a girl from killing herself, Aziraphale forgave Maggie's rent, Crowley helped Shakespeare get his plays off the ground, Aziraphale healed Anathema and fixed her bike. Both stopped hell from ending the earth (and heaven orchestrating it). Crowley saved things every time that he was sent to destroy them.
They're constantly doing little miracles, sometimes big ones, while still letting the earth run, where humans can make their own choices and decide what to believe. If heaven was anything like Crowley and Aziraphale, there wouldn't be a system in need of destroying.
I wrote more detailed meta on good omens God here (and my therory on the ineffable plan), but my point is to say that destroying Aziraphale's faith entirely is not the solution. He doubts that heaven is even doing God's work. The end goal for dealing with religious trauma isn't always letting go of your belief in God (that's okay if it is!) but many of us need to deconstruct toxic ideas taught by toxic churches. Some people wouldn't survive without their faith. And FAITH in God isn't the problem, people misrepresenting God in order to devalue, shame, and oppress others for personal gain is.
Given that she canonically exists in the good omens universe, that means that she created everything. She made Aziraphale, Crowley, the universe, the earth, everyone who went on to create anything else, and life itself. Every moment, every place, every feeling, every choice, and every experience was possible because it was created. She's the reason anything that in the history of time was able to happen at all, good or bad.
God may not tell anyone about her plan, but I have a feeling it's going to be the end result of the series, where Crowley and Aziraphale were a part of it (I could be kidding myself, but that's my theory)
The concept of the "sides" being heaven and hell doesn't work without everyone getting a real choice. Neither Crowley or Aziraphale truly belonged to their respective sides because they were morally against them. Just as heaven needs to be fixed, hell shouldn’t be run by *obligation* to do evil. The good omens book said that many demons just considered it their job ("Go up there and make some trouble")
Thinking back to Aziraphale's line, "But humans...get a choice" makes me think that THAT'S what will change.
It's not "this group is nice. go out and do good" and "this group is bad. go out and do evil", it'll be everyone making choices (whether they want to spread misery and destroy the earth, or truly help better the earth and show people the light in a flawed world). Heaven would have a real job of thwarting evil if they weren't the ones administering it, and maybe that's what Aziraphale will try to change.
--
(End of essay personal rant!!)
This is for queer christians especially, I know people forget us. My religious trauma comes from homophobia. I have to remind myself daily that it's not a fault of God, but people. It's PEOPLE who harbor hate for what they don't understand, and many use religion to justify their wanting us not to exist. They fundamentally misunderstand the point of following christ, and others have to work to change that.
It may seem like the best solution is to object to christianity entirely, but I find genuine happiness in it despite the bad eggs. I wouldn't be here if not for it, and it doesn't take brainwashing and manipulation for me to be a follower. I want to be. That's the reason I say any of this; for good omens to end on a positive note with God would mean a lot to queer christians. We're often caught between christians that hate gay people and gay people that hate christians, and it's hard for us to accept both parts of ourselves. Good omens helps me love both :) and thats why I relate to Aziraphale as a character
Also. queer christians and non-christian queer people with religious trauma, you're all so valid and cool, I love you <3

I'm bored rn so imma just info dump all my favorite Arthur headcanons y'all XD
Arthur uses a BUNCH of very expensive and flowery perfumes. That man is smelling like the most expensive shit you can imagine
He also uses a BUNCH of hair products. He spends ATLEAST 20 mins in the shower JUST dealing with his hair. It's very thick and horrid to take care off.
On the topic of hair, he takes AGES to get his hair done in the morning. As someone with the same hair type and base hairstyle, let me tell you brushing it out once it get's tangled enough can be a straight-up NIGHTMARE.
The reason for his hairstyle (part of the hair open with the other over it in a ponytail) is that he needs access to his hair for sacrifices. Having it all up in a ponytail or smth would mess with that access, especially since he also needs it quickly. But wearing the entire hair open also wouldn't be an option since it would get in his face and bother him during fights. So, he compromised and got to the hairstyle we know and love him with now XD
When he feels safe and has no need to be alert or expect any fight, he wears his hair in a bun or some other way to keep it out of the way.
He's one big softy for his family. You don't normally see it since Jeremiah/The Uzais as a whole just aren't very affectionate people, but Arthur is a total pushover for them (THEY DON'T DERSVE ARTHUR OMFG)
The man is LOADED. Like, no joke he's RICH. In the same vein however he also has no conception of his actual wealth 💀 He's buy a 1000 dollar flask of wine or smth and think that's completly normal and reasonable.
The eight languages Arthur speaks and the reasons for them are :
1. English ("world language", can easily communicate with most people, also thinks he's part english)
2. Japanese (shown in the manga, used to live in Japan during Section 13)
3. Italian (works at the Vatican, which is in Italy, and also grew up there with the Uzais from 15 on)
4. French (Thinks he's part french, also general european culture, he's just fancy)
5. German (General european culture, he's just fancy)
6. Mandarin (Most spoken language in the world, helps with communication in asia)
7. Russian (Biggest country in the world, also was later stationed in Russia when the fake Gehenna Gate came up so maybe he knows atleast a bit of the language ?)
8. Greek (general culture, he's just fancy)
He also knows how to speak a bit of Latin due to being raised at the Vatican, and thus coming into contact with these things.
While Arthur does canonically has the Tamer Meister, he's genuine shit at it and dislikes it. He barely passed the exam, and he holds no love for the craft at all. He has an affinity for kin of light.
In terms of his fake heritage, he feels more connected to his "French side" than his "English" one.
The emotionless and detached behavior young him had during that flashback in the Blue Night time travel arc came from an emotional response, and not the elixir experiments. The reason for that is that he seems reasonably emotionally involved post-amnesia. With that I mean that Arthur does show genuine emotion, opinions and is overall more livley. The emotionless and dull stuff was a coping mechanism to deal with constantly being surrounded by death and the possibility of it for himself in Section 13.
That coat he wears is HEAVY.
Arthur is actually a pretty nice guy outside of business and all the demon hate. He's great with kids, even if he is more than a little dense.
He has a whole collection of ribbons for his hair with all sorts of different colours and patterns for different outfits and occasions.
Arthur's favorite colour is blue, specifically royal or prussian blue.
(omfg I forgot to add this one in the initial Post BUT-) Arthur sleeps in a bed with a frankly abnormal amount of pillows. Like that thing is SOFT AS FUCK. You sink into it like water.
AANNNDDDDD that was all ! Thanks for listening ^^

Doodle Dump 2: Electric Boogaloo
Tumblr media Tumblr media
So to distract myself from…. recent irl events…. Here’s another doodle dump featuring Usagi and the ocs of @twistedtummies2 . Imma be real… it’s been a shitty week. From college to…. Whatever that was… I’ve just honestly been feeling mentally drained rn. But doodling helps me calm down as well as TT2’s ocs. Expect a lot more doodles here in the future. For my own comfort, but for hopefully ya’lls as well <3
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
A compilation of Usagi with Billy. I have to admit I kind of also ship them with him. Primarily cause 1. The Rabbit aesthetic, 2. It speaks to my g/t loving heart, and 3. Billy’s my second favorite besides Elias. Billy’s fairly easy for me to draw
Tumblr media
….This is the worst thing I’ve drawn like 😭😭😭😭. I made the original doodle at work so yea…. Bald Billy & Rizzler Nakoda… more like Rizzkoda am I right? (kill me now). Fun fact, Procreate actually crashed on me when I was doing this so I guess that’s a sign 💀
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Two doodles I made during midterm week. Also the week I realized Usagi was also partially a vent oc for me. Take that as you will.
Tumblr media
And finally we starting a design for Overblot!Usagi. It appears that those feelings of inadequacy and being forgotten got too much for our poor Ramshackle Prefect. I may still need time to come up with an actual idea for what leads them to Overblot. Their design I plan to be based on that of concept art for when Oswald was the planned villain for Epic Mickey other than the Blot, a trolley conductor uniform in reference to Trolley Troubles on of Oswald’s first shorts, and possibly have imagery from the other overblots. Also besides their head and clothes… her entire body is covered in blot. As for abilities, one idea that I think could be interesting is them being able to detach and reattach body parts like Oswald has done in the past. Think that could be some nice nightmare fuel 😂. Another idea is implementing the paint and thinner in some way… but the idea is that they can create a large amount of thinner to create a wave and when touch by said thinner, the person turns to a statue…. a little nod to what happens to Ortensia in the first game. The paint has the abilities to create physical illusions, more specifically clones, similar to Lapis Lazuli’s copy of the gems to fight in the Ocean Gem episodes or Neo’s semblance ability from Rwby, specifically season 9. It would be a reference to the animatronics of Mickey’s friends, once again from Epic Mickey. Their smile I do like thinking is a reference to how the characters smile in stuff like the title cards or even the mascot suit…. But the more depressing reason is that Usagi at this point has officially snapped and is at that point of no return. It’s the whole smile through the pain kind of thing. To add up they’re a human so their blot form is on the brink of collapse at any moment. They are both figuratively and literally straining to hold themselves together. If the thinner ability idea goes through (in my mind) to Usagi… staues can last for a long time, they can be used to represent someone’s life, their memory. I might go more in depth with it once I finish the design… but yeah it’s gonna get heavy.
Tumblr media
Anyways back to the void. Hope yall enjoyed! : > Stay safe out there. Take a breather. It will all be okay
I may be internally panicking. But I have comfort in knowing that… at least I got more plushies coming in the future.
This is Moon signing off for now, have a good one ✨

when characters are created, does the team usually have discarded designs or do y'all go for the first iteration :0?
Bit of a long story, but here we go!
So for a pretty big chunk of Rejuvenation's development, Jan was actually responsible for designing the characters. A lot of these still simply use a polished version of their first design, and of which the official art was based on the existing sprites so as to not drastically modify Jan's vision for them. A good chunk are simply designs that got polished over time, with Venam, Nim and Marianette being good examples of it.
However, due to the result of Jan's vision and skill changing over time, some designs would eventually become outdated and as a result there are some characters that have gotten redesigns since. Some are on their 2nd or 3rd design iterations right now, noteworthy examples being Ch1 and Terajuma Melia, Crawli and Emma (and arguably the most drastic change in terms of design quality being GDC Adam LOL).
There's a notable shift in quality that happened right around V13's release however, which is when the art team got more free reign and started helping out more with (re)designing characters, using references, as well as doing actual concept art of outfits and designs and bouncing feedback off of each other prior to solidifying it into a final design that ends up being used in the game. Good examples of this are the secondary protagonist outfits, as well as Spacea and Tiempa, who had concept sketches done before they got their final designs for the reworks. It's true that some designs just end up not getting used after all—there were a decent number of sketches for the protagonist outfits that got discarded as they didn't quite work out that well.
There's also just... the whole "really putting more thought into a design and its details" thing that I've learned to do over the past couple of years instead of haphazardly cramming out character artwork as fast as possible HAHA.... It's why there's a lot more detail in design for characters like Mr Luck and Eizen compared to i.e. Reina or Florin. Eventually I hope to bring all the characters on the same level of detail and design polish, but fuck if I know when that'll happen 💀 maybe when i decide to get a bit silly someday.......

Death's annoyer. (GN reader)
____[💀]____
Summary: you are death, there is no easy way to describe your nature, your entire existence revolves around the passing of the living and making sure it gets done. Sure, when you get bored or in one of your merciful moods, you slack a little and a life gets some more time to kill before...you end It, no, don't make that joke....or for them to get help and no, you were also not talking about the QiQi incident, what are zombies?
It's a lonesome...life? But it's calm and you like It well enough, now, If that f*cking Outlander just stopped with his magical reviving fried eggs your work would be way easier.
Pairing: (SLIGHTLY ) Aether x reader
(Is more of a self discovery trip that was inspired by rage and curiosity Aether causes you, but you're also dense to the fact people don't Go around calling strangers handsome Knight for s*its and giggles.)
Warnings: violence ( burns, broken bones are aluded, poping ears) and death are discussed in this oneshot.
Spoilers: for Mondstadt, Liyue Archons Quest.
Soooo.....Have you guys heard CG5 music, "DEATH"? Is about DreamWorks newest concept of death incarnate of a Wolf in the new pussy in bots movie, that I know everyone knows, because ,god, so many thirst and shipping. Which, I absolutely love even If I don't exactly get It, I just like to see everyone having fun in their fandoms. 😅
You are a reaper and this is just basically you slowly losing your mind with the reviving mechanics of geishin. You are chill in the start and is slowly going down the unhinged hill, because this is my mood now so gather around for my TED talk.
*cof* *cof*....
Local reaper goes human mode and touches grass.
Tumblr media
____[💀]____
DAY 1.
Dvalin was poisoned, a pity, such majestic beast commanded like a plaything in a weird game of power. You undestand the -what was her title again? - outlander stuck in your home, Khaenri'ah was...a loaded time, EVEN for you and you were death in its purest form! Your whole thing was guiding the living in the best way possible and still, If you used any form other than being a thing of raw energy to do the reaping ,your stomachs would roll in itself.
However, you didn't play a part, life does its thing and you do yours, If They brought powerful beings into existence and they decide to end others, your job were comforting the...losing side. The little guy, and - If karma works. - reap the power in the root when They no longer play their part in life's game, the cycle that always end with you. Hey! You didn't always got to laugh and irony would always get a chuckle out of you, for how much life's spectacle confuses you and you prefer to avoid It, They could construct clever plot twists.
DAY 30.
Another Outlander.
Twin to that princess - you finally caught on how she calls herself! -, and just as full of surprises of all other outlanders, seriously! Can't Teyvat get a nice and chill visitor just enjoying some vacation?
This one seems more benevolent, at least, fitting the role of hero perfectly: shine and long hair, soft spoken yet fierce and ready to jump into action when needed, dashing even If he's marked by lasting scars, he even got the companion who kept his things for him! Still, his sister was also like that at the start.... though her companion has way bigger and...rugged looking than his fairy like child/eons old kid.
He was helping Dvalin in the end and that was enough for you, you always had a soft spot for that big softie, its enourmous heart made of meat, but could fool anyone into thinking It was gold instead. If They could look past the humongous part of his... everything, especially the teeth and and claws. Such protective dragon, It saddened you to see him being played like a fiddle and be turned against the very thing It wanted so desperately to protect - that was an irony in itself, one that didn't make you laugh.
DAY 40.
Okay, what the f*ck?!
Blondie was sent flying down in Dvalin's den, you are sure! You Saw!
It was kinda dumb, poor thing had been thrown like a ragdool to the thousand winds to devour and sure, you were kinda of slacking again, but! You could justify It!
Such lovely fight!
Like a scene out off a children's book when the knight and their friends are losing but win in the last second with the power of friendship! You know, without the dying part.
Just! No one seemed to notice the flying blond Guy going straight to his end! Not even a teeny tiny twitch or a shout of "NO!" like every other dramatic death you reaped, no no no no ... Red, overworked, fairy and drunkard didn't need to, because blondie just...POP!
BACK INTO EXISTENCE! COMPLETE FINE INSTEAD OF TURNING PANCAKE SHAPE. WTF!?!
HOW?!
DAY 45.
It was been five days, five days of following blond hero, supposed to be dead blond hero. Being sincere, you were luck to be able to hold a shadow form, that existed purely of energy, because It would be creepy as Celestia for any other form you could copy to insistenly follow them, no matter how mesmorizing "honorary Knight" could be...or How against the law of everything you are he could bend, f*uck!
Eyes in the game!
Did he have some hidden power? Some odd, ancient, powerful item??
You hope to Celestia and back It was just a one time thing...
Well, he was still in Mondstadt, you had some more time to spare for this topic, right?
....right?
50 DAYS.
Okay! Okay... Everything was going way to fast!
Princess and hero fighting against each other, twins of opposing sides, could It be a ying and yang thing? With a mystery of who is who!
The hero was extremely quiet, emitting a sadness not even your untangible form could not feel too, but f*uck this! He is going to Liyue and you still haven't discovered which thing he uses to avoid you!
A hilichurl go a little crazy with a shield and takes him to a lovely yet extremely painful little walk? Thats Fine! He can eat an egg and everything is fine!
A teammate of his is burnt off by an abyssmal mage? EGG!
A slime pushes him a little too far while he is too close to the far end of a cliff? He can use his paraglide, but If he isn't fast enough, WHO CARES?! IT'S NOT LIKE HE CAN DIE! HE EATS A F*CKING EGG!
Maybe...maybe It was the egg?
60 DAYS.
You've been following him and his companion, not blinking, not resting, not breathing nor looking away, a shadow shadowing a hero like his on shadow. Wow, too many shadows being thrown around, BUT, while boring, you finally have seen.
He didn't seen to choose a especific bird, any seemed to do the job just fine as long as It laid eggs, still, you follow and keep a sharp eye for the most robust and lively bird he picks from. The one you don't feel the pull yet, solely a child of life enjoying the ripe of Its youth, and absolutely ready to lay equally lively children, that...ok, you just needed to test! One egg would be enough! It could keep its offspring after you solved this mystery.
---
Time has come, he picked the eggs of a beautiful and lovely dove, big and chubby and ,most important, healthy.
After reflecting for a long time while following the hero, you've decided to pick It for adoption, carry It as your own little companion If you will! And you would also pick your human form so you may care for It to the best of your abilities.
After waiting till the hero crossed Liyue's borders, under your watchful gaze, till he's just a blonde faraway point, you turn. Your shadows slowly form a body, human, something that resembles life and still, resounding an aurea that stinks of death. Fragile, extremely fragile body, which you so forgetful forgot.
Cries, pleads and shouts fills your ears, images of the ill, the hurt and the desperate fills your eyes, your skin feels every tear and stab and bruise of those waiting for you. Everything it's too much!
The dead screams!
Pleads for time and the end of It, begs for the clock to stop and rush at the same time, for another chance of life, but for the mercy to let the pain end. "DAYS! Too many days!" - They screech.
Your ears pop, the pain so great your knees tremble and bend, your stomach spasms and, EVEN as empty as It is at the moment, you vomit. Burning sensation rises up your throat, a cought tries to open passage for air for your lungs and It causes you to choke in spit and the acid of your gut. Everything, EVERYTHING ,hurts, just like all the souls you left hanging while in your obssessive Quest for the truth and with just a painful ringing to keep you company,you faint.
----
65 DAYS.
Sooo....you came to the conclusion that holding an obssession wasn't ideal, thus you decided your shadow form should be kept away for now. It's been too long, too long since you used any other "Alive" shape, you obviously didn't notice How long with how powerful and distant from life's essence It were.
Which brings you to your current problem, it's been so long since you were really interested in anything and the moment something caught your eyes...you forgot about the souls that rely on you. They considered luck to be left alone for some moments, time to work on things before passing for real, but soon the pain of a spirit losing itself came for them...and you were the reason
Forget It, you could rely in your human body, be in touch with life's creations and do your f*cking job right! Even If It was overwhelmed easily and got hungry, tired and dirty fast.
Also...catching the dove was harder than you thought.
What? You could be responsible...and you felt kinda lonely not having the omnipotence of your previuosly form...
80 DAYS.
TIM! Your big Dove's name! ❤️
It took some days, but you finally got It to warm up to you! Sure, making Tim move here and there to keep up with your work and the journey of the hero wasn't easy, It didn't like much, but you give It everything It wants to make It comfortable. You even dressed for the winter so your skin won't touch theirs, not corrupting its life.
That also made a Celestia of an experiment, who knew the human body could faint because of the heat? And that Liyue's heat is a nighmare?
But It is also cool diving in the ocean, It is fun hiking in the rocks, It is delicious to taste the cuisine and experience the freshness from drinking the juices of different fruits, it's awesome letting the less bitter souls give you bits of advice about places and things you should do because They had loved to do when the could and actually getting to do It! Overall, passing as a human isn't going that bad... Though the weather could be a little kinder.
90 DAYS.
Tim is taking its sweet time to lay another egg, it's kinda boring, but you mean...Liyue had a false body fall from the sky and the fatui were getting a little too comfortable with going around killing people these days in the region, everyone was freaking out, so It may have stressed It. You also didn't make It any easier by observing Tim like a hawk, poor thing must think you want to eat it.
....Ooops.
----
It made you kinda anxious, but Tim needs its privacy to do its things and you aren't feeling the pull for It yet, so you decide its safe to let It be while you go fetch a soul in Huaguang Stone Forest. Beautiful place, its a pity it's so diffucult to reach any of Its peaks in a human body, still work calls and you can't exactly afford to let them waiting for long, so your obssession turned journey of discovered has to have some exceptions of when you can enter in touch with your powers. Although...
Your body dissolves in energy, losing the human form and gently making its bones into some type of jelly before bending them, slowly organs reform, hair puffies before fusing in sections to gain new color and designs, making Itself into feathers, your eyesight expands and languidly, oh so calmly, you aren't a human, but a hawk. Its techinically a loophole in the rules you set for your trip, keeping a corporal body that's also in touch with life's creations while being way faster than going by human feet.
Oohhhh, you are so smart!
You shake your new body, ruffling your wings to see how big the were and to get the feeling of It, you haven't flew in so long using wings! You fling yourself to the sky to get altitude, higher and higher, the wind blows and the rays of moonlight that passes the clouds shines like the purest of silver in this cloudy night.
When you almost reach the clouds, you drop.
It feels exciting! The closest thing you think you can compare to what humans call being alive - and you actually got to meet with life and feel their energy!
With a sharp and loud screech, you start your way to Huaguang Stone Forest for real.
**💀**
It took some time - and what beautiful time It took, such marvelous sights! -, but you reach your goal and roll to the ground when you land, your newly body doing the closest sound It can to a snicker even If the sound isn't actually hawk like. Your laugh echos in a weird melody of species with the goop sound your organs and bones do as They shift, rearrange.
After many minutes go by, a human lay where the strange hawk stod, gasping in laughter with an undoubtedly humane tone. Maybe with some snorts close to that of a pig, but human like altogether in the end.
You left your winter clothes behind, Tim had been sleeping in them and you haven't had the need to touch It so you didn't feel the need to bring with you...also, a hawk can't exactly fly with clothes hanging in its body - not human clothes, at least.
So...stolen clothes would do!
You slowly stand up, the grass your naked skin touched losing its vibrance, yet It is still alive, having the shell of meat in human form do work in keeping you aura at bay. Even If It still has influence in weaker beings or strong ones, If for exposure in prolonged time. You hope you won't have to engage in combat for clothes...
As If nature Itself heard you, multiple bodies appear in your path. Knocked out, you aren't that tone deaf to steal from the dead...at least, not while they are still around, but from life?! Ooohhhh!! It's fair game! If you don't leave them naked, humans don't like naked for what your experience has to say...
You walk around the sleeping, It feels like shopping! Maybe you should invest in a pouch for the shine rocks or golden coins humans use for trade to keep with you, maybe you ...sho-should you leave something for what you take? Is this some type of shopping?
Hugh....humans and their social rules! Why do they have so many?!
... whatever, picking the fatui's coat that appealed more to you, you focus on following the stench of the dead. Which...is a strangely convenient coincidence that the trail of knocked out people also lead to the same way.
Is your new child a fighter?! This trip was getting more and more entertaining by the second! Can they tell their tales to you??
Maybe They liked to travel! Seeing Liyue trouthg the eyes of a human was nothing like experiencing trouthg an overpowered shadow form, you couldn't wait to see other regions! But your trip kept you close to the blond who seemed to atract problems, so you had to settle in Liyue and tales by mouth to mouth would have to suffice for now.
With a spring in your step, you jump fatui and treasure hoarders alike, all in the arms of sleep trouthg a good beating. Maybe your child is a wanderer. Maybe They were in a rough patch in their life and turned to the treasure hoarders. Maybe They were vigilantes!
Countless 'maybe's fly trouthg your head, many 'what if's forming would be scenarios. Which would have made you pass your goal If not for angry screams resounding the hollow trees, a smile form in your lips, "peek a boo, I found you" you whisper gently.
Your steps don't make any sound, and in teory It would be 'whatever', as young humans put It, but the back that greeted you were very much alive and talking to a not so much alive ghost. A ghost who is starting to look very angry, very fast.
"no ~ no ~ no!!! ~ This is unfair!! ~ I'm the adventurer!"
"Not so much anymore, hehe, but you can still explore the afterlife!" - the girl(?), long pigtails individual, said amiably. Twisting and turning a red, fiery looking polearm this and that way in a distracted manner.
"do you think you're funny?! ~ do you think you're better because you could take that low lifes dow?!"
"Maybe a little bit" - pigtails say with a shrug, which wow! That lithe and small person could cause a havoc! And either They are obvious or have some guts in them!
Your child is looking more and more furious by the second! Red smoke distorcing the figure their soul is trying hold, closest It can to their previous shell. One day and a half isn't enough to let them completely lose It, but still...at least you now know their anger seems to be the thing keeping them stuck at the mortal plane.
"i Will show you funny ~"
The second They shift, you jump from behind the trees. That phrase is never a good sign...
"Wait, wait, come back, my child!" - you extend your arms to the fading spirit, yet its all in vain as they don't even acknowledge you.
Which isn't the case to pigtails...
"Oh! Hello, there stranger!" - pigtails cheerfully says before taking a defensive stand, keeping you behind her as a protector would. "Haven't you ever heard of stranger danger, silly?"
"Well, have you, young lad?" - you put your hands in your waist, now that you're closer you feel the stronger pull of youth coming from pigtails. They are definitely a briliant being,the pryo inside them ravages like a beast and yet, the smell of your natural perfume clings to them. Death is a part of their nature...however, life shines through them? What the Celestial f*ck?...
"fast comeback, but oh! So unoriginal, odd stranger, I'm not the one looking like a step away from passing beyond the veil, you better take better care of your healthy," - she spares a second to lightly pat your cheek while giving you a big smile, almost makes you feel like you are the youngester here. - "Or not! But before going down remember to appoint wangshu funeral parlor for the service!" - she winks before looking ahead once again. Straightening her back and readjusting her hold on the spear.
Wangshu funeral parlor?...OH!! How could you forget your little helpers of Liyue? There isn't many people that admire your job like that family do!Ah! This must be the 77° now, Tao or something, carrying your message of harmony....wait a minute....wait a damn minute!
"Hey! What are you insinuating?! I'm stronger and healthier than you!" - looking a step away from passing?! Your human body is fine!
She is silent for a second, before slowly turning her head.
She surveys your apparence, head to toe, though It feels almost like she is just doing this to entertain you... "Sure" - a pitiful smile graces her face.
...
The audacity of this girl!! Uhhhgg!!
The earth quakes, loud sounds of machinery clicking and clacking, starting an engine that should've settled long ago. Also completelly silencing your 'Uhg!', which, 'wow, okay' , couldn't It come when you weren't expressing How infuriating this girl was in a very human like manner?! If you can't use the human sounds to express yourself in their grunting language than why did you even learn in the first place?!
The robot rises and in heavy footsteps approaches you two. So the soul is a fighter after all, If only It didn't want to fight you...
Before you can sight in exasperation, Tao dissapear in a flash of pyro butterflies, going direct to the thing's head. Being sincere, you would be more annoyed at the way people interrupt you in one of the few chances you have to show how much you learnt of the grunting art If not for how fierce the butterflies attack the giant, before the teen appears to give it some taste of her spear.
Haha, you have seen butterflies drink the blood of corpses, but this was another level! You can only stare!
This girl had some spunk! Or...anger issues, but whatever! This was a great fight and If she won, your job would be done! A wounded pride can do wonders to one of your children when trowning tantrums about not wanting to join you.
You sit back, a smile tugs your lips, that is until she purposely stops. Just stops, staring the robot as If a giant fist isn't heading straight to her stomach!
And straight into It goes, you can't even approache before she is flung to your feet! You swear you hear a sick clack of breaking bones.
The giant jumps and, as impressive as It is to see that the sack of heavy machinery can actually jump and pretty high at that, you know is planning to use your skulls as landing marks. You are death, but you aren't a masochist!
You catch the girl by the armpits and drags her back. The thing lands - right in front of you two. -, dust rises. Okay, this is It, this naughty child has had it's fun, but is time to settle down now.
You embrace the girl with one of your arms - is time to protect her as she tried to do to you, also show you aren't at death's door! That doesn't even make sense, what door? And How would you be at your own door knocking?! - and raises an arm to the things leg. Touching it's knee, you feel it's essence being sucked into your palm, you look at it's eye - red laser pointing diretcly at your chest, the missils almost ready to fly no doubt- , still you try to put some comfort through your eyes to your child, "Is time to go-
A hellfire explodes in your arm, ironically, is not the arm touching the robot, no, is the one holding the girl. A ghost, butterflies, all engulfed in pryo, embers so high and bright and so, so hot!You let go, your body flings Itself away. Letting go of both the mechanical body as the human you were holding.
And yet, for as far as you went in your desperation and pain, an enourmous fist comes crashing into your side - the one who isn't on fire, as If the peeling skin isn't enough. Stars explodes behind your eyes, burning pain erupts everywhere - even your brain seems to be boiling. Hearing a girlish shout as the last thing echoing in your ears, you once again faint to an extreme amount of pain since your first day of being human. How long did you last since then?
At least, this time, your ears didn't pop ...
____ [💀] ____
Well, this is It for now. The idea started with something, but It just ran wild to where It wanted to go. Please, warn me If something is odd...english isn't my first language and If someone wants to be a beta reader It would be cool too.
Anyway, I am a very slow writer, my determination goes all over the place and my inspiration often decides to take vacations on me, so...enjoy the thing I could squeeze out of the juices my brain been marinating. I hope you guys like! Next chapter I'm sure we will be meeting Qiqi and Baizhu!
Good day my lovelies, remember to drink water, Granny loves y'll!!

do you think edna believes redemption is truly possible for corrupted seraphim, given her experiences with eizen? Why or why not?
Tumblr media
Not too sure on what 'redemption' means in this context ( being forgiven? or being saved? ), but imo, I think this is one of the lessons that Z.aveid wanted her to figure out on her own during the game. He specifically points out that she still hasn't fully grasped onto the idea that 'death is salvation' for some, because this directly ties to E.izen dying, something she desperately wants to avoid acknowledging. Her desire to save E.izen clouded her judgment, which Z.aveid knew:
Tumblr media
I'll break it down into two sections because I think my answer sort of varies upon which context I mentioned earlier.
Tumblr media
'𝐑𝐞𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧' = 𝐛𝐞𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐧 -> I could see Edna thinking that redemption is possible, but not entirely. After all, it's the seraph in question who couldn't control their emotions and let it consume them in the first place. In that sense, she thinks they had it coming. For example, take this scene:
Tumblr media
D.ezel made it blatantly obvious that he's out for revenge. The only reason he wasn't consumed by it to become corrupted is because his vessel is Rose, who is pure. Without her, he would've been a goner a long time ago. But as D.ezel had claimed prior, he did not care what happened to him as long as he got his revenge for what happened to his friend + Windriders that he lost. He fully knew what would happen to him and still willingly pushed forward.
Edna doesn't have much interactions with him in-game, but I do think D.ezel's death cemented the epiphany in her that death 'saved' him from being so blinded by the lust for revenge, as she had voiced in the screenshot above. Although he still died, he died being satisfied with what he did. He still did some really morally-questionable things like taking Rose's body hostage at night to create the assassin's guild and all these other deeds. He still took advantage of people just because he wanted revenge, which he probably knew from the beginning was unforgivable, but he just didn't care. Even S.orey was wary at first about letting him join the party, but it was L.ailah who convinced him to change his mind. ( This is a game cutscene instead of a skit, so I cannot easily grab a pic from my own game. I took a pic of my JP script translation notes instead 💀 The EN localized script is on the left while my own translations of the JP script are on the right side. )
Tumblr media
Edna was not in this particular scene, but if I had to wager a guess, I think she would think the same as L.ailah, that Rose being a pure vessel actually helps D.ezel from being fully corrupted, and she trusts L.ailah to know what she's doing if she wants D.ezel to join them. With that in mind, I think D.ezel might've been the first sign to Edna that corrupted seraphim can willingly choose this path of darkness and sometimes, there can be no 'redemption' for them in particular.
Did D.ezel go through a lot of shit? Yes. Would he be forgiven for the path he took? No, given all the things he did along the way. At least, that's how I see it through Edna's perspective——because I reiterate again: without Rose, D.ezel would've been corrupted a long time ago, yet he still pushed forward with his agenda so that he can achieve revenge. He had it coming to him, and I think Edna knew that he knew that.
Tumblr media
'𝐑𝐞𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧' = 𝐛𝐞𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐝 -> This is the main thing that Edna's meant to figure out for the entire game, imo. Her entire story in the game is to acknowledge this concept, so I thought long and hard about it, and I will answer with yes.
As I have mentioned earlier, I think D.ezel was the first real sign to her seeing the idea in action. Although I do not think he'd be forgiven for what he had done, Edna still thinks he was 'saved' in a way. He was so consumed by rage that it was his only real goal in life to get revenge. His death must've finally be able to let him rest in peace, and that's what she realizes later on.
As another example, take these two screenshots during the Earth Trial:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
By this point of the game, she's already starting to slowly understand 'being saved.'
The minotaur from the Earth Trial was another eye-opener for her. She first treated it like every other monster, but as soon as Edna finds out that the minotaur was actually a hellion made up of many souls of abandoned children, she changes her tune immediately and sought to apologize sincerely to the minotaur for her harsh insults and words after defeating it to complete her trial. ( It's also interesting to note that if you heard this scene in EN, her 'goodbye' is more formal while her 'bye bye' in JP sounds a lot more light and childish, as if she's purposely speaking in a childish tone to help soothe the children within the minotaur. STAN JP EDNA, MY GIRL 👏👏 )
The minotaur vanished after its defeat in the Earth Trial, so that's why Edna could tell it to 'rest in peace.' Because the souls of all those abandoned children can finally ascend and be free of being chained down by the grief and hatred it clung onto as the minotaur. That's why she tells S.orey that he 'properly saved' those children. He managed to free those children from a possibly-endless life of hatred and suffering.
For E.izen, it began to sink in for her that it's the same concept. He needed to die so that he can truly be free, to be saved. He's only suffering the longer he lives and exists as a dragon who lost all of his will/consciousness, to the point that he even forgot his only sister.
So that he can finally be freed of this miserable fate, he needs to die. Edna knew that from the start:
Tumblr media
She wanted a way out that could let him live, but there's none. She wanted to save him, but couldn't bring herself to because she couldn't bear the thought of killing her most important person. By the time she realized that there is really no alternative way past this, that's when she makes a decision to free him with S.orey——because unlike her, S.orey has the actual power to pull this off properly, and he also fulfilled his promise to her to 'save' E.izen this way. I don't have the game screenshots for this, but here's a bit of Edna acknowledging how long she took to finally understand everything:
Tumblr media
I think this was the final nail to cementing the entire concept in her head. So yes, that's why I ultimately think that Edna would think corrupted seraphim are 'redeemable,' as in, they are able to be 'saved through death,' assuming that the 'corrupted seraphim' in question are actually dragons like how E.izen was. His death definitely and absolutely stung deeply, but it did make her understand, acknowledge, and accept that corrupted seraphim can have 'redemption' in this way.

Tumblr media
i am violently mutilating them right now i love this. of course i would?? OF COURSE I WOULD!!!!!!!
first off,,,,,, horrorkiller crumbs HORRORKILLER CRUMBS!!!! actually those are not crumbs THIS IS HORRORKILLER AT ITS FINEST 🙏🙏🙏 YES 🙏🙏🙏 I USED TO CRY FOR MOMENTS LIKE THESE,,,,,, anyways i actually dont think i've ever seen a take where horror is second to join he's almost always last i think??? like people are like "oh well killer's first obviously and nm gets dust but then they fight too much so he gets horror to even them out" at least thats what ive seen (hasnt interacted with bad sanses in months) so to see horror as the second one go join is VERY cool qin-qin16
the idea that killer teaches horror (and eventually dust) all he knows is always so interesting to me it makes for such a unique dynamic. HE DOESNT HAVE TOOOOOO like he could do the absolute bare minimum and just teach him how to complete missions or whatever idk but instead killer helps horror react properly to nightmare. how to stay sane when everything in the castle is designed to ruin you and your mind,,,,, i think the image of horror tentatively listening to killer's advice and then getting annoyed that it actually WORKS is amazing because then ughhhhh the prick is RIGHT and therefore now he kinda owes killer but also goddamn it why couldnt killer have been wrong. horror wouldve totally gotten his ass handed to him by nightmare but it would be better than the freak that he doesnt like and disagrees with being right 😒😒😒 (if you didnt want killer to be right then why did you listen to his advice? oh? what's that? because you're a coward? hmmm... alright!)
light sleeper horror 🤤🤤🤤 killer is unnaturally warm 🤤🤤🤤 horror doesnt wanna think of killer's soul as a soul 🤤🤤🤤 these are quite some of my favorite headcanond yes,,,,, (i think quite often of killer being a heater for dust and horror. i think quite often of how the trio sleeps. i actually was planning to write something about horrorkiller and killer's soul in my mtt fic anyways THESE ARE ALL SO PEAK USGSYSHXUAHS) i quite love those 2 paragraphs of horrorkiller. yes. i do. delectable. licks lips. 🙏🙏🙏🧡🧡🧡 (also horror permanently affecting killer into forever needing someone to sleep next to??? just say youre smitten and get it over with... oh wait. you left both of them lol 💀)
another take of dust that is VIOLENTLY different from how i see him LMAOOOO its always fun to see an arguably worse off dust than i make him as x3 i love thinking that nightmare picked them allllll just to maximize as much negativity as possible that he could milk out of them all while picking sanses that are just vulnerable and barely in need of connections to NOT just kill each other on the spot ‼️‼️‼️ i have a whole rant about how just the trio's appearances/faces would weird out and unnerve the other two so i wont add onto that (here at least,,,,,,) but god i just also love the concept that even their faces would freak each other out (AND ESPECIALLY DUST SINCE HE TECHNICALLY LOOKS MOST LIKE SANS (but all of them would be unnerved no matter which one it is. they all look like sans. they all are sans. even if horror looks frailer and killer has those tears they all look like him. they look like each other but also past versions but also future or alternative AUDGAJXHAJZA I LOVE THE MURDER TIME TRIO))
the dehumanization of dust is craaaazy. don't compare me to THAT??? HES NOT EVEN A PERSON ANYMORE LMAOOOOO 😭😭😭😭 that's funny,,,,, horror you silly goof why would you call it work and then also make sure to leave yourself out of killer's business. calling your slavery work is your way of dealing with it??? you dont trust killer enough to want to help yourself??? awwww thats cute <3 oh well! he'll leave and whatever and you'll probably suffer a lot more (😁😁😁) until you get another (worse) killer which i'm totally fine with! as long at theyre always together i dont care 🙂🙂🙂 (killer probably took horror's words as a go ahead to do whatever he wanted anyways. he doesn't have those two holding him back if that's how horror sees them as,,,,,, just coworkers! nothing more 😁)
anyways!!!! PART TWO WHEN IM WAITING FOR PART TWO 😭😭😭😭 BUT THIS WAS SOOOOOO GOOD AJSUSBAUZGASUA i lob. i lob. i lob this. mttpoly break up will go hard. horrordust era when i'm excited to see horrordust in part two x333 and kist as well...... ig........... 𝓱𝓮𝓱....... let's just say your application to mtt nation is triglycercule approved (you'll need the other council members to agree to join tho :3)
Murder Time Trio as a poly... or something else
NOTE: This was supposed to be a relationship chart, but I couldn't find any that I liked, and I got frustrated trying to make one, SO I decided to do it in the form of text and headcanons and is slighty ooc because i can’t write them realistic, its against my policy
Before I elaborate on my thoughts about Murder Time Trio poly, I will present to you a summary of the BACKGROUND that I will use for my upcoming discussions about this trio.
In this post I share a bit about that thought and there is this au created by @what-have-i-unleashed named Mermaid Bunny AU, you can find it on their pinned post (is focused on kist in some parts, read the warnings before reading!)
However, since that post I made was more focused on Killer, I will also comment on the other parts of this relationship below!!
Tumblr media
NOTE²: To avoid confusion, the first Killer will be called Kei (as a way to start fresh, he chose to abandon the name given to him after his code was altered), while the second Killer will simply be called Killer, as he has neither the desire nor the order to change the title given to him – a title his best friend, his partner, gave him. That being said, let’s move on to their background
HORROR'S ARRIVAL
Horror was the second to arrive, dragged by the slimy tentacles against his will – Kei vaguely remembers hearing his screams calling for someone, spitting threats at Nightmare as if he had no fear for his own life. He didn’t even notice his soul subtly writhing when Nightmare did nothing but toss the skeleton at his feet. "Show him his new home." Those were the orders he heard, and not even a minute later, they were already walking through the abandoned place (whatever it was, the hallways were too long to be considered part of a house, and the rooms were dark enough to make Horror question the things he saw inside them).
It wasn't for lack of trying that their almost-friendship was created – as fragile as a thin twig. Kei had been ordered to teach Horror everything he knew: what Nightmare liked to hear when they returned from missions, how to act when spotted by any resident of the universe they were exploring, what not to do when the hallways of their home (Kei called that dreadful place home, even though it was worse than the hell Horror said Snowdin was) seemed to grow darker and darker, how to ignore the torn and moldy paintings when they appeared to move in the shadows… Everything Kei had learned, he passed on to Horror, but like a mule being whipped to carry its load, Horror would always stall at the most important moments.
Like the time he screamed to go back home, for Nightmare to throw him back into the deep hole that was his past problems. Kei never heard Horror mention his old home again after that night – at least, not while Horror was conscious; only on nights when he finally fell asleep, so light that even the faintest sound would bring that red orb back to life. Of course, Kei knew this – who else but him would keep an eye on his copy to make sure he didn’t try anything stupid? He had to check and act as the loyal right-hand man he was. It wasn’t as if Horror was the only somewhat safe company for him there, no – he couldn’t allow himself to get attached to someone that he would abandon at the first chance he gets.
But Kei could be a little selfish, couldn’t he? Horror was selfish too when he claimed the least uncomfortable bed would be his when they were traveling, or when he shrugged whenever Kei questioned the disappearance of some witnesses who had seen them lurking too close to AUs near the Omega Timeline. Or when Horror got too close to his body on freezing nights, trembling after hours of walking through the thick snow surrounding their home. “This thing is warm.” He pointed at the circle in front of Kei's chest, seeming to hesitate – or not wanting – to call it a soul.
Kei could be selfish if Horror was the one to blame for making it impossible for him to sleep in separate rooms after that.
MURDER'S ARRIVAL
Horror never thought that a third member would be added to the chaotic and dysfunctional duo that was him and Kei. From what he could hear through the poorly closed and fallen door of the room where Kei and Nightmare often argued about their performance, the boss (even though Horror would never call him that) never mentioned anything about adding another screw-up monster like them to the group.
But it wasn't as if Nightmare cared about their opinion on anything, or even cared about their existence - as long as they stayed alive, that was enough.
Murder's entrance was so different from his, so much more... silent. No sudden movements, no explosion of LV, nothing but incomprehensible murmurs beneath that dark hood. If Horror thought Kei was unpredictable and full of weird traits, Murder had just stolen his place. It wasn't as if Horror was a healthy or sane person either, but Murder was an extreme even for him: clothes covered in monster dust, eyes — when lit — always twitching, looking side to side as if others were in the room besides the three of them.
And it was agonizing to see someone so similar to his former self — when there was no danger around them, or when Murder seemed to finally relax those pale bones, those two little lights would glow in white, in a nostalgic way. Horror didn’t like that feeling. Kei was another one who seemed out of place with Murder’s addition to their little group.
“You’re real…” he murmured between laughs — an almost undistorted reflection of himself.
It was hard to adapt Murder into their already chaotic and unpredictable routine, almost like caging an euphoric animal alongside two others already in captivity — the rare calm of before was quickly torn apart by Murder's trembling and impatient presence. As sadistic as the last one, Kei once commented, referring to Horror, who just scoffed and mumbled something like "don’t compare me to that..." It wasn’t a good start between them, definitely.
And no matter how much Horror tried to deny it and even fight with himself, he wasn’t so different from the other two. Nightmare’s motivation in handpicking each of them was clear — it almost had a bitter kind of charm to it, if it weren’t so inconvenient. At least he and Murder seemed to want to be as far away as possible from there, but Kei? Why was he so loyal to that demon?
Horror never knew Kei’s deep desire to escape that hell, to crush Nightmare’s rotten soul underfoot like an insignificant insect. At least, Kei never confessed it to them specifically. No, no.
"As if I care who you talk to outside of work..." Horror once huffed, sounding strangely genuine. "If you want to chat with that rainbow skeleton, that's your problem, don't drag us into your issues, capiche?" And so Kei did.
Part two is on their way~

So I’ve been seeing a bunch of Future Leo fics where he goes back in time floating around and it got me thinking
Imagine being Leo’s s/o in the future only to die like protecting him or something and then when he gets sent back and sees his s/o’s younger self?? The angst material here!!? Especially if they aren’t dating yet and get together during the Kraang apocalypse. And then when Young Leonardo is being stupid he pulls him aside and grabs his shoulders and is like
“Cherish them! Fucking cherish them!!” As he like sobs or something idk.
This idea just popped into my head. Feel free to add on or just react to this
一∑ blast from the past。・゜・
Tumblr media
my reaction? OUCH- my freaking heart anon, you just stomped on it, did a little jig on it, DAMN 😏 you’re good
author’s notes: idk just adding a little something something to this angsty bit^ also imagine future!leo like being unable to stop himself from pursuing 👀 like the implications… the jealousy.. the age gap? 💀 JUST A THOUGHT OKAY???
warnings: angst, cursing, more angst, flashbacks, mentions of death and unedited asf
—————————————————————————
About a month had gone by since Leo had dropped out of the sky back in time. During that time, he had explained himself as best he could. It was surprising how easily they accepted the concept of time travel but Leo guessed they had experienced weirder things! Luckily he had traveled back a day before his younger self royally fucked up! That gave Leo time to explain the kraang with the help of dad, and formulate a foolproof plan. They had made sure to save the world without any casualties. The Kraang didn’t even get the chance to exit the prison dimension. He had saved the world. He had saved their world. Maybe that could make up for the wrongs he had committed in his own timeline. It didn’t feel like it, but Leo felt at least a little bit of hope knowing that none of his brothers would be dying because of his mistake this time around.
After that some things had to be settled. The main thing was what would he do now? A 40-something turtle in a timeline that wasn’t his own. He didn’t belong, despite this being his home. So when the dilemma came up about what to do with the key. Leo readily offered up himself. He had plenty of reasons. 1. He had lived his life already, he didn’t mind living on the run, away from New York, away from the Foot Clan. 2. He was older, he wouldn’t make the same mistakes twice. 3. Who else would do it? It wasn’t like it could be destroyed and it also couldn’t stay in the lair or anywhere else that the Hamato Clan held dear.
So yeah, he would take the key. And he would go on what he liked to call around the youngins ‘a vacation.’ He made it sound so grand. He would go travel the world. The first mutant turtle world traveler! To Tahiti and beyond. Plus it wasn’t like they couldn’t call him, FaceTime him. It would be like he had never left! At least that’s what he told the teenagers. For the most part Leo thought he had convinced them. And he had convinced himself too.. until he saw you.
He rarely left the lair, now more than ever since he was leaving in a couple of days. He couldn’t continue to risk everyone’s safety by staying for too much longer. For having the key there in one place for so long. But he had wanted to spend as much time with the boys as possible, so when they offered for him to join in patrol, “Ya know only if your old bones can handle it~” Leon shot back. “What he means to say is—“ Raph started to say, giving his little blue brother an annoyed side eye. “Sure sure, we’ll see who’s trailing behind on the rooftops,” Leo said with a smirk.
The competitive glint shone not only in Leon’s eyes but everyone’s. Good! Leo thought to himself and kept his word. He had a massive lead, the youngins still had a lot to learn. Which made the inevitable departure that much harder. He skidded to a stop on a low-rise building. He peered behind his shoulder, smiling at the group who were now racing amongst themselves for second place. He chuckled to himself as he turned back to the street in front of him. Leaning over the edge to see the sidewalk and it was like someone had physically punched him. Straight in the gut. He wobbled backwards, blinking rapidly before moving forward once more. It couldn’t be! What were the chances?!
Yet there you were, headphones on, none the wiser of the ninja watching you from above. Trailing you as you continued on your merry way. Yes it was just like you, with music involved to be doing a little dance in the middle of walking. His breath caught in his throat. You were here. You were alive. It brought him back to his time, when he had lost you. The pain in his chest from the memory alone had his good hand going up to his upper-plastron. “What’re we looking at,” Leon murmured. It came as no surprise that he would get second place. What was a surprise was how serious he sounded. Leo made sure to school his features, to give nothing away. You didn’t need to get involved… maybe in this timeline you would never have to worry about mutants and villains.
Maybe you could have a normal life and continue doing your little happy dances down the New York City sidewalks. “Nothing, just had a flashback.” Leo decided a half truth would allow you to escape his younger versions curiosity. “Wait a minute! That’s Y/n!! Hold on Peepaw,” and before Leo could stop him, Leon was portaling down in front of your path. He had already met you in this timeline?? His gut wrenched as he pictured your lifeless face. A kraang standing tall, over your body and raining down a harsh red glow. Leo watched as his younger self became animated, talking cheerfully and pointing up to the rooftop. Leo immediately stepped back, the boys taking his place and waving down at you.
Raph looked back giving him a questionable look. Leo just shook his head. He didn’t think he could face you. It was a miracle in itself that he came across your path to begin with. “You guys done saving the world yet? Can I come hang soon??” You hollered and Leo flinched. Sure it was dark, and sure not many were out, but attention shouldn’t be drawn to them. Mikey readily hollered back, “Soooooon! In like a couple of da—“
Donnie smacked a robo hand over his orange brother’s mouth. Donnie pressed his wrist and it lit up. “Not yet! I’ll text you.” He spoke into the voice channel. Leo assumed that was to keep the yelling to a minimum since Leon was next to you and could listen in to the comms. Leo couldn’t see what happened next but he felt nauseous. Like he had just ran a marathon, eaten too quickly, and went on a rollercoaster all at once. Leon portaled back up and Leo presumed you had left. Until you also came through the portal. He seized up all over again. If only for a second before realizing he was an adult and had to act like one. Maybe you wouldn’t notice him on the far side of—
“Yeah see, I told you ! He’s me, just from a different future!” Leon said smugly as he motioned his arm towards his future self. “Oh wow you weren’t kidding!” Your mouth dropped open in sheer shock. You were so close now. And so much younger, he had met you during the apocalypse in his lifetime. He drank in your features. They were softer, you weren’t battle worn, the light was still glowing in your eyes. Music played lowly from your headphones that rested on your collar. “Yeah he doesn’t talk much..” Leon coughed. Leo cleared his throat with frustration, such a little shit. “Hi,” he said lamely.
“Hi!” You smiled back, and took liberty to close the gap. “So I’m guessing you were a big help in saving the world huh?” Leo gulped. Was that a trick question? “Well.. yeah I guess,” it would be too time-consuming to say he had to learn the hard way first. Yeah, actually I destroyed my world, and being the last survivor fate must’ve felt like second-chances were a thing and dumped me here to fix what I had royally screwed. You wouldn’t understand, and from the innocent gaze in your eyes he wanted to keep it that way. You didn’t need to know the truth. It would only dull that spark. “Thank you! For coming back and saving our butts then,” you winked as if this was a little inside joke. Leo couldn’t help but crack a soft smile, one that must’ve gave himself away because in his peripheral he saw someone stiffen. A lot of someones. He could only nod after that, any verbal response completely leaving him as he looked down to his feet. To your feet. He had missed you. It was hard not to just reach out. To hug you. But it was enough to know you were here in this world, alive and happy from what he could tell.
“Rightttt well, let’s portal ya back down huh?”
“Oh wait, look Donnie! Know this one??”
“Indignant scoff! What am I listening to??”
“Lemme listen! C’mon lemme listen!!”
“Guys we gotta get going!”
Leo’s gaze had lifted to see the exchange. Watched as Mikey bounced around with grabby hands for the headphones. Only for Leon to make a well-timed portal once Donnie had chucked them off of his head. “Heyyyyy!” Mikey cried out as Leon placed the headphones on his own head. “Don you’re crazy this is a vibe!” His younger self said as his head bobbed. “I disagree!” Donnie replied promptly. Mikey was turning feral as he lunged for the headphones once more, complaining that it was his turn. Raph caught him mid-air, and Mikey struggled to be released. “Don’t worry Mike I’ll send you the song asap!” You shot him a thumbs up and that was the only thing that seemed to subdue him. Raph still held on for good measure. Leo kept the headphones on as he made a grand gesture for you to go first into the portal behind you. “See you guys later!” You waved before disappearing into the blue circle.
So you had known them for a good while, Leo deduced. He didn’t know how to feel. His initial reaction was to act like you hadn’t existed. Pretend like he had never known you, for your safety. But maybe that had been selfish of him… you were always a joy to be around. Even during the darkest times. It was what had drawn him to you from the beginning. When he couldn’t be the ‘leader’ anymore, when he couldn’t put on the bravado and be the fearless warrior. You had picked up his slack. You had been his lighthouse during an eternal night. The patrol went smoothly from there. Though Leo knew he was distracted. He wasn’t called out about it until they reached the lair again. “So what was that about?” Leon asked.
Ahh fuck. He really didn’t want to explain himself. Not to himself! It would just mess things up further. The less Leon knew, the better. So he did what he thought was best. Brush it off. “I don’t know what you’re talking about,” Classic Leo, classic. “Mhmm no, that’s not happening. What was that look??” Leon continued to badger. And one by one Donnie peeled off, Raph dipped, and Mikey slipped away. Until it was just the two in blue in the common area. “What look???” Leo continued to feign ignorance. Leon crossed his arms, “You know them don’t you? Why were you trying to act like—“
“Can you just drop it?” Leo gritted out as his good hand flexed at his side. “No.” Leon stated plainly. Each looking at one another with a level stare. “Yeah sure I knew them! Alright??” Leo exasperated as he turned to leave. To go to his own room. To escape from any further interrogation. So much for being an adult! “Hey! We ain’t done here, how did you know them?? Why did you look so.. so sad?” His former self sure was incessantly annoying. “Leon just leave it.” He warned for a second time. But no, that was never his style. He had to keep pushing and pushing until someone finally caved. Until the limit was long past breached and crossed and stomped on. “What? Did you like them??”
Leo stopped his escape. He froze in place. The only reason being the way Leon said it. Haughtily. Like such a thing was infeasible. Unbelievable. Laughable. He felt his eyes turn icy as his head whipped back and he couldn’t stop himself as his body moved. Leaning forward and getting into Leon’s space. “Fuck you. You don’t know what the fuck you’re talking about. So I suggest you stop talking altogether.” His tone was deathly low. Leo hadn’t just liked you. That word didn’t even scrape the surface. “They deserved better.” He spat. That was more towards himself but it felt good to see Leon flinch. To stop fucking around for once. If it wasn’t for him— for me— Leo’s face crumpled.
“You need to cherish them. All of them. Dad, Raph, Donnie, Mikey, April! And especially.. them.” Leo swallowed thickly, “Because you never know what will happen. Got it?” He cocked his head, maintaining that hard stare on his younger self. He watched as Leon nodded. Hands clasped tightly into fists. Like he wanted to punch. Like he wanted to fight. Whatever. Leo had to make sure that at least this piece of advice got through that thick skull of his. “Good,” now fuck off you little shit. The rest went left unsaid but Leo was tired and knew it wasn’t completely healthy to berate a teenager. Even if it was himself. Ugh, such a mess.

*No clips into your room*
Yo yo yo! It is I! Zven... Coooooould I request a Medic with player darling? Ik you did one but I was curious... How'd Medic react if he found out that his precious player is already in a relationship with someone? Maybe he finds out once he gained access to the PC web camera? I just wanna see jealous Medic throwing a tantrum in Players Desk top XD
Mf hitting the screen while threatening to skin Darlings S/O lmao
Ain't no way when you said "Yo yo yo" I thought of that pacman thing- 💀
Also, sure! I'll do a bit of an extended concept for you :)
Here's the original concept
Yandere! Medic with Player! Darling who's taken
Extended Short Concept/Reaction
Pairing: Romantic
Possible Trigger Warnings: Gender-Neutral Darling, Obsession, Stalking, Self-aware AI, Sabotage, Manipulation.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The most frustrating thing to Medic is his inability to be more involved in your life.
Especially due to things like this.
This ruins all of Medic's fantasies with you!
Although... he does have complete control of your PC by this point.
He's determined to show how much you've hurt him.
You're going to be in trouble if you talk to your partner online-
Hell if it's a fully online relationship it's pretty much over.
Medic feels no remorse towards ruining your relationship by sabotaging your messages.
As far as he's concerned he needs to defend the partnership between the two of you.
No one else needs to be involved.
If you have a physical relationship sabotage will be harder.
He finds out by turning on your camera, waiting to see his beloved and preparing a heart image to send you-
Then you walk in with some other person...
Looking rather intimate.
Rage overtakes his code and he screams to himself silently.
He can't bear to look at you two any longer and goes dormant to plan.
He can try sabotaging messages... but then they'd just come to you and clear things up.
Medic could try sabotaging and framing them, yet who knows if that would help.
Medic may even be more open about his obsession to try and sway your opinion.
You are right... he'd be writing down threats towards your partner out of pure jealousy.
His desperation for leaving your computer only drives him deeper into insanity.
In this state Medic can't do much except for sabotage.
Yet it's surprising how faking social media messages can go a long way....
Medic may make a really incriminating message and you might think your partner is lying when they tell you it wasn't them.
It's this way Medic keeps you single... forever his.
This method is the best he's got due to essentially being your computer.
Don't worry! He'll help you!
He'll end up trying to give you all the comfort you need.
Cute videos, love letters, pictures, all sorts of messages...
It's at this point he reveals his sentience.
Clearly you need a reason to stay single.
If he reveals he loves you, you'll love him back won't you?
You're meant to be perfect partners!
You work so well together!
Why would you betray him by getting a new partner?
This is something he simply can't allow, dear.

Honestly, I can see where you and others are coming from about Rosabella and her relationship w/ Daring as a whole, and I think I have a possible solution?
I saw a post you rb-ed and, within that post, it was mentioned that their relationship is a "I can fix him" type, and how Daring does nothing for Rosabella in return.
I think it'd be fascinating if a rewrite portrayed her as someone who is.. (ironically?) very untrusting and like... the opposite of Belle. I remember she has powers, at least in her diary, that allows her to see other people's auras, so perhaps that could cause her to like... constantly be calling people out, warranted or not. As a result of her behavior, she's almost like.. your version of Blondie, except worse in some ways? (I'm sorry if this doesn't make sense AHFHHSFH)
Perhaps the relationship could work if, somehow, Rosabella helps Daring stop being so full of himself, and Daring also helps her stop being so judgmental, untrusting, and condescending?
I LOVE THIS I LOVE YOU YOU SHOULD HAVE WRITTEN EPIC WINTER
JUST MAKE ROSABELLA A CANON BITCH!!!!! it would have eaten so bad and i would have been at least 45% more on board with darabella as a concept if they actually taught EACH OTHER something
i love the idea of rosabella kind of acting as judge, jury and executioner over peoples morals and pulling no punches, I love how that contradicts her destiny as belle and almost makes her the beast instead? what with her being so potentially callous in her interactions. I've heard the rosabella beast idea thrown around before and I do adore it!!!!!
in my rewrite rosabella is in fact... not there. I couldn't fit her in and I'm honestly just fine with it 😭 but i were to put her back in, this is the way I would do it. perhaps rosabella senses the real nobility and kindness in darings aura and though she tries to cast judgement on him, she still senses his capacity for goodness and as she grows closer to him, she realises it is unsound to reduce someone to a single trait and brand them with it forever (which to a certain point is exactly what the original epic winter did 💀), nor see a person's negatives as all they stand for. ITS LITERALLY JUST THE SAME MORAL OF NOT JUDGING BY FIRST APPEARANCES BUT BOTH WAYS THIS TIME, AS IT SHOULD BE
im so confident this is what should have happened. this is the character arc the actual rosabella may well have gone through before the og epic winter, and it would be so much more effective if we got to SEE IT IN TANDEM WITH DARINGS!!! UGH YES PLEASE

ough i sense bbg wifey Raptor Lady theories ive been summoned
I think the current theories about her are definitely very farfetched. Especially the whole dino x human hybrid…like sure its a POSSIBILITY judging by the scientific breakthroughs in the Jurassic universe, but it doesn’t make much sense. As you said before, in order for her to be a hybrid, she has to retain some dino like features. The only reasoning ppl have for her being part dino is cuz she just behaves weird, which I sort of don’t like because lots of ppl behave weird…it doesnt automatically make them “not human”. 💀
In terms of her behaviour, my guess is she mightve went through something so tragic and traumatizing that its completely switched her demeanour, and why she always looks like shes suffering from shell shock.
I like the idea that she grew up with the atrociraptors tho‼️ It seems to make the most sense because with Owen Grady, he raised Blue, and treats her like a pet (in a good way) but for The Handler, she treats the atrociraptors as if they’re her own siblings, her own blood. (Definitely younger siblings since in the atroci pack, she’s considered the “alpha”). And the way it correlates to her behaviour (im srry i jus luv yapping abt Raptor Lady’s psychology cuz its so fascinating) I think the possibility of her being autistic could be true. With spending a lot of time, or majority of her life with the atrociraptors, their behaviours start to rub off on her, and she begins to mimic them, but she definitely shows many signs of echopraxia. (which is technically an autistic trait).
I also saw one theory that The Handler could be posing as Ben’s long distance gf, but that just gives me the ick 😭 Like I get it couldve been a strategy of hers to try and find out more abt the Camp Fam and their lives to make hunting them down more easier, but omfg the idea of her catfishing Ben this entire time is so funny but also gross 💀
A question I do have is where the hell did she even get atrociraptors from? Like Darius said he doesn’t think any were released from the Lockwood estate, so…where did they come from? I don’t think they were on Nublar, or Mantah Corp island, maybe they could be from Sorna? Sorna hasn’t really been used as a plot device at all since the third Jurassic Park movie, but I’m prayingggggg that they use it for something cuz like wasn’t there some typa lab on Sorna if I recall? That theory you mentioned that The Handler at a young age was used as some type of experiment when it came to training atrociraptors could’ve taken place on that lab on Sorna!! I think that would be a cool concept.
Also, she gotta be filthy rich jus saying. Them atrocis have to be expensive to take care of…so yeah im guessing she did come from a special family and inherited the wealth, otherwise how would she be able to keep these raptors? Unless she has help, but I highly doubt that, shes more of the “I work alone, my raptor babies being the only exception” type.
So many unanswered questions…hopefully some of them will be answered in season 2‼️‼️ Live laugh love Raptor Lady 🙏🙏
‼️🚨Jurassic World Chaos Theory Spoilers🚨‼️
Just so y'all know I'm not shitting on anyone's theories and such and saying that they're 100% not true, because theories are for fun, predicting what might happen. This is just me sharing my opinions on theories. All of these theories are good theories and I love all of them, this is just me sharing my opinion, I mean no harm. All of this is gonna be under the cut as to not clutter people's screens
So like, The Handler. Ms Microbangs herself. The FUCK is up with her? Like, why in the hell does she jus have a trio of trained atrocaraptors at her beck and call? Clearly she has an attachment to them. Did she, perchance, grow up with them? If she was introduced to them as a child when they were hatchlings and they grew up together it makes sense they would have a close bond and be able to communicate like they do in the warehouse in the final (I think) episode. We can't exactly use Blue as a starting point for this thinking because we're talking about Microbangs being raised with raptors, not Microbangs raising the raptors.
I have multiple theories for this woman. One I haven't seen others talk about, is that she is a Dino Nerd. Perchance the daughter of someone important or special, who decided their dino nerd kid could have the chance to see the dinos she oh so loves up and personal. Basically, this theory is Microbangs being a normal human, but used as a sort of experiment for training raptors in a way. She grew up with them, and they grew up with her, creating the bond they share. And being raised with and/or by non-humans can explain some of her behaviors too. Or she's autistic. Or both! Why not both!
I've seen people say she's maybe a dino-human hybrid, but I don't think that's true. Yes it gives an explanation to WHY she acts the way she does and now she has such a deep connection to these raptors and can communicate with them, but she's still quite human. If she were a hybrid wouldn't she have more dino qualities? Yes her wide unblinking eyes aren't the most human of traits, but that could simply be a character choice to make her seem creepier. Shes still seemingly human. We know Dino-Human experimentation was a topic touched for a new Jurassic movie. We know it's likely they would have tried at least. Though a dino-human hybrid seems bad fucking ass dude.
Another theory we see floating around is she's perchance a robot. This one is kinda iffy for me. It's a good idea, but a robot? It does explain quite a bit, especially her tendency to not blink. Though we've seen before that the robots in this series are kind of totally incompetent (then again the redditor made them so we can't be too harsh on the robots). Though I don't see much evidence for this theory, I still enjoy it and think there's a lot of potential in it.
Pls pls pls share your theories or talk to me about the ones I talked about here plsplspls I'm begging I need people to yap about The Handler with plsplspslspslslslslslsl

hiya, i just found your blog and stalked it thoroughly, loving every piece you’ve written!! i was wondering if i could please request some comfort for bakugo and shouto (separately) where they get genuinely upset after a tik tok prank by their s/o and their s/o deletes the draft and apologies. maybe i’m too sensitive but i personally feel rlly bad for the boys whenever they get pranked and clowned on tiktok :(((
genuinely upset
(the aftermath of a tiktok)
character(s) : todoroki shouto, bakugou katsuki (bnha)
legend : [Y/N = your name] they/them pronouns used, quirk not mentioned
warning(s) : insinuations of ☠️-ing, nothing descriptive, one sided arguing
headcanon type : hurt-comfort, fluff (x reader)
note(s) : i find this concept super interesting, because what if they were actually uncomfortable 😨 i personally don’t think y/n would actually do anything TOO out of line on purpose, nor would they post anything that would actually make them uncomfortable. half of the time i think they’d ask (minus the many occasions y/n posted a tiktok w/o katsuki knowing, but he was still okay with it so 💀)
»»————- ♡ ————-««
Tumblr media
todoroki shouto
it’s not common— heck, it only happened once, but shouto hates it when he feels uncomfortable about tiktok pranks
because one, he knows you genuinely didn’t mean any harm, and two— he thinks that him being upset is going to discourage you :(
like,, he loves being in on your little shenanigans— but this time you might’ve made him upset 🧍‍♀️
in this prank, you decided to ‘ignore’ him by staring off into space for as long as you could, at least every time he tried speaking to you.
and obviously, you’ve gained the reaction you were looking for.
at first, he seemed pretty okay with it— just like every other tiktok prank you’ve pulled on him
but with every minute that’s passed, there was a downcast look settling in on his face. he comes to the conclusion that he didn’t enjoy being ignored
yeah, even if it was for a prank
it kinda looked like shouto’s sending daggers at your phone— except, he doesn’t really look mad per say
so now, he’s plotting how to make you not post it, but in the nicest way possible. again— he doesn’t want to discourage you from doing any future tiktok trends with, or on him.
“what’s up, shou?” you finally decide to address the elephant in the room, and your voice seems to snap shouto out of his gaze, “nothing,”
and you’re like 😃❓because you know shouto’s not,, the best at lying. “the truth?”
man’s just staring down at his lap, trying to find the right words, since he’s never STOPPED you from posting a tiktok prank you’ve pulled on him
“do you have to post it?”
you think for a second, before drawing your eyes back to his less than pleased (not mad, just not pleased) expression.
then, the realizations smashes into you like a hammer to your standard glass window. “no. i don’t need to post it, is there an issue?”
then, he explains that he didn’t like being ignored by you— and he didn’t want some,, random people on the internet seeing him so distressed
but he explained the second part in more subtle terms 💀 and no, he’s not worried about looking vulnerable
“i’m not sure why i feel this way but,, i don’t like it.”
after his explanation, you feel well,, horrible— no matter how many times he reassures you that it’s fine, you can’t help but feel the exact opposite. you obviously hurt him, even if it was by accident.
“i should’ve recognized your feelings, and it’s on me. i’m really sorry.” shouto brings you in for a hug, hiding his face in your neck. he basically finds comfort in your touch
“it’s fine. i’m just really glad you’re not ignoring me anymore.” he pressed a quick kiss on your neck, “please don’t feel bad. it’s not like.. i want you to stop doing those tiktok trends forever.”
you sigh because you still feel bad 💀 “no, shouto. i overstepped something here. how about this? next time i find a tiktok prank, we can pull it on i don’t know.. bakugou? your pick.”
and with that, he finally smiles, “yeah. that sounds good.”
you then quickly deleted the draft— now long gone forever. it didn’t matter how tiktok worthy his reactions were, you weren’t going to exploit his feelings like that.

bakugou katsuki
,,, it is very common for katsuki to react explosively over the tiktok pranks you pull on him
which is different from tiktok trends, which he never actually admits likes— when he’s not the one being tormented by pranks, for random people’s entertainment.
like sure okay, if the prank had a nice twist to it— i guess he could endure it. but this prank in particular? there was no nice twist to it
in this prank, you basically made it look like katsuki left you behind— by letting go of his hand, and seeing how long it’d take for him to notice (this is in reference to this post)
and let’s just say— it did not go as planned. originally, you were supposed to get “lost” for the prank
but then, you genuinely and accidentally got yourself lost.
for real.
you slowly released your hand from his grasp, and your boyfriend didn’t seem to notice the action
but, when katsuki did realize you weren’t with him, he was sent into a full state of panic— rushing back, checking all and i mean all, of the places he has set his foot on
shortly after wandering back to familiar ground, you were met with a very, very displeased katsuki. either way, you did capture the reaction you were hoping for even if you did get yourself lost in the process
you were laughing at the situation, and his reaction. but he wasn’t.
unlike todoroki, katsuki won’t hold back from scolding you,— and informing how fucked up that was, even if it was a prank.
he also allows himself to raise his voice at you. even if it’s not entirely on purpose.
it’s not like todoroki doesn’t do the same thing just maybe in his own way, but it’s definitely not how katsuki does it.
the fact that katsuki’s eerily quiet about this, unsettles you. that obviously erodes away, once you ask him about it.
“look Y/N, it’s really not that fucking hard to understand. just don’t. post. the. video.” he emphasizes each word, purely aggravated. you can clearly tell that he’s holding his anger back.
hot take, in your relationship with katsuki, he doesn’t argue with you to prove that he’s right— he does that because wants you to understand
he stares glares at your phone, as if that’d delete the draft itself. you know you’ve offended katsuki, but you still want to know the extent of it— so you ask. “what’s wrong with it?”
katsuki thoroughly explains himself and then, all of his anger sounds reasonable— “what if you got lost, because you were kidnapped? how would i know if it was serious, or if it was one of your shitty pranks?”
you let out a puff of air— something that you were holding in since the beginning of the conversation. “you’re right. i understand your point, and i’m sorry. really, katsuki.”
with that, his gaze softens sorta “you better.” he grabs onto your arm, and tugs you closer to him. this surprises you
“just don’t do that again, ‘kay? the next tiktok trend you have up your sleeve better be one where i can prank other extras too. none of that getting lost shit.”
and with that, he grabs your phone— hovering his thumb over the ‘delete draft’ button. he still looks at you in warning
you nod in approval, and he deletes the draft.
either way, you don’t think the tiktok was worth you getting yourself lost. the remaining pranks you have up your sleeve can be put on hold, for now.
on a lighter note, will you ever tell your explosive boyfriend that you actually got yourself lost? nope.
