#if this has been done before oops i didnt see it...

[meatcatt]

has this been done yet?

[tryingahandinholdingapen]

edited to add that this is during the warring clans era, pre-Konoha, just realised I didnt necessarily make that clear enough throughout the post oops

anyway

concept: the real reason Tobirama wears his big fur ruff, or at least one of the main reasons he wears it so consistently, is to hide the collar he refuses to take off. Izuna gifted it to him and Tobirama doesn't want to remove it but it's not exactly SUBTLE (uchiwa fan symbol, writing which reads "property of Uchiha Izuna") so if he wants to wear it without immediately getting murdered for treason he kind of has to hide it. and he DOES want to wear it. thus, the big fur ruff which he can conveniently blame on being important to him due to his summons and/or Hatake heritage, so nobody questions it, and which hides his collar from view (Izuna absolutely knows why he's wearing the fur and the knowledge that his Senju is taking such a risk just to wear the collar Izuna gifted drives him a little insane)

different flavour of the same concept: Izuna didn't GIFT it to Tobirama, but INFLICTED IT on him. Izuna thinks it's the greatest thing he's ever done and is maddeningly smug about it but fortunately, or unfortunately depending on whose perspective you're considering things through, he can rarely ever SHOW that smugness or gloat about it without others catching on that he collared Tobirama. And he doesn't want that. Tobirama, meanwhile, has repeatedly tried to remove the collar and failed. He was pissed off when Izuna first got it on him, got steadily more annoyed when his first several attempts to remove it whilst on his way home from the mission/battle Izuna had caught him on failed, and reaches incandescently furious when he finally gets a mirror and sees exactly what he's been branded as. He probably broke the mirror actually once he realised the collar he can't figure out how to remove declares that Izuna OWNS HIM how dare he-

After that point Tobirama definitely puts even more effort and fury into trying to kill Izuna, and possibly spreads that fury to other Uchiha as well which is partly emotions getting the best of him and partly his assumption that surely Izuna couldn't have come up with something impossible to remove himself and therefore there must be at least ONE accomplice. There we go, secret behind Tobirama's hatred for the Uchiha unveiled: Izuna massively overstepped and Tobirama will hold this grudge until the end of time, against everyone even mildly associated with Izuna

optional add-on, for either version of the concept: the writing on the collar is actually in Sharingan code (if you haven't seen that concept around before, idk if it's canon or fanon but basically it's writing that you can only read with active Sharingan, otherwise it's just decorative looking squiggles), and the uchiwa symbol is on the BACK of the collar. This means that dependent on exactly how long Tobirama's hair is vs how high or low the collar sits on his neck, and/or how careful he is about nobody getting a look at the back of his neck, he could actually openly wear the collar around any non-Uchiha without getting accused of treason (though if he's wearing it involuntarily he probably wouldn't want to). Though "not getting accused of treason against the Senju" would not save him from "judgement for wearing a collar with fancy attention-grabbing squiggles". Also, what would happen if he wasn't covering the collar (thru choice or bc he lost his fur or whatever) on a mission and then - whoops. That's a Uchiha. That's a non-Izuna Uchiha. That's a non-Izuna Uchiha with sharingan currently active and looking in this direction and- ah fuck please say they can't read the writing at this distance-

another optional add-on, for any of the above: I couldn't decide when initially thinking about this if the collar should be JUST a claim or if other bullshit is going on. So the optional add-on is: Izuna gifts/inflicts on Tobirama a collar when they're both younger, like pre-teens or smth, which is nothing except a claim. Later when Tobirama inevitably outgrows that collar, Izuna has another one ready with the same visible claim, but also has seals stitched in - may or may not actually be visible when looking at it, Izuna may or may not bother telling Tobirama about them. Of course Tobirama would be significantly more upset about this in the "get this fucking thing off me I hate you how dare you" version of the initial concept than the "yesss gift thank you I'm never taking it off" version,,,,but I'll leave it up to you to decide exactly what functions Izuna includes in the collar, because otherwise I'm going to be sat here indecisively chasing different versions of it for like, hours. Although I think in the "gift" version, Tobirama may also add his own seals to it

could we still get some Dahlia thoughts even tho she didnt win the poll? (also, I tried finding the fic for her yesterday but I cant find it, do you have a link for it?)

I got so excited seeing this it went straight to the front of the queue wjskkx LMAO. Dahlia hasn't been posted yet :3 obligatory tag for @hypnoneghoul

Dahlia was the oops baby of Swissalps. Swiss didn't even have ANY idea he was knocked up until he was 12 weeks. They had just gotten back from tour and Mountain had been BEGGING him to get checked out as obviously this wasn't a normal cold picked up from humans.

When he found out he just... Kinda paled. Him? Knocked up? There's no way in hell. Do another test... No, that one can't be right either. There's NO way! Ohh, but yes way. He ended up walking back to the den in a daze, finding Mountain and talking to him about the results. They talked for HOURS. Mountain completely neutral on any choice Swiss wanted, Swiss at a loss of what to do.

Laying cuddled up that night before he finally whispered he wanted to keep it. "Then we'll keep them... If in the end, we don't want them, we'll talk to the delivery team, okay?" Mountain nuzzling down on Swiss' neck. "Okay..."

They told the others pretty quickly, getting excited and supportive reactions! Papa even sat them down and had an equally long discussion about how they'd move forward for tours, etc! He was happy to start arranging accomodations and care, even saying how he'll start getting things for a nursery if that's what they wanted (they ended up asking him to wait a bit on that.)

You'd think Swiss was an earth ghoul from how frequent he got flowers in his hair, but they very much copied what he was feeling. Lilies when he was upset, roses when Mountain or someone did something really nice for him, or dead flowers when he wasn't feeling well or just in a bad depression rut.

One time he got mad at Cirrus for some reason, and as she went to follow him in the room, vines shot out from a nearby pothos they kept and completely closed off the entry. After that, it wasn't uncommon for vines to be covering Swiss like a cocoon when he wanted to be left alone or felt like he was in danger.

When he finally had their little daughter? Oh she was perfect in every way. Honestly looked a lot more like Swiss minus the hooves and her horns matching Mountain's. She loved chewing on her hooves a lot, biggest gummy smile ever, chewing on Swiss' braid.

Her name is Dahlia, and literally has the WORST bambi legs. Despite this, she's always had a knack for sports especially (American) soccer. Even as a kit would squeal watching the children of sin playing, or when they'd turn it to the American channel. When she was able to get leg braces? PHEW it was done for.

Just super loud, "Dad! Think fast!" And kick it towards Mountain, only to completely miss and break the window. "Oops..."

[salad-006]

is there anywhere to read ''why didnt you do it sooner?" by any chance? it sounds so good

It was written when i was 13 so i can promise you its not good lol

It was only.ever uploaded on amino and frankly i dont care to link back to that nightmare , so you know what ill just put it here . Its not that long

Contains: death, blood, decay, bad writing and tom crying like a wimp

"Tom, have you seen my camera?"

Tom sighed and looked up at the ginger. Once again, he had barged into Tom's room without knocking. "Matt, can't you see I'm busy?" Tom gestured at the harpoon gun in his lap, which he had been in the middle of cleaning.

The previous week hadn't been a very good one for Matt and Tom. With every passing day Matt somehow managed to be even more annoying than the previous day, and Tom had just about had enough.

"Oh sorry, I just want to see if you knew where my camera was" he dug around in a drawer for a second, before accidently knocking a pair of glasses of the tabletop. Apon reaching down to pick them up, Matt somehow managed to step on them.

"Oops" he picked up the now smashed glasses and held them in Tom's view. "Oh god damnit Matt! Those were my dad's glasses!" Matt inspected the glasses for a moment before putting them down. "Really? I didn't know you had a dad."

Tom's expression gave a look of pure rage as he sat up and pointed at Matt. "Are you seriously THAT stupid?!"

Matt looked up at Tom, confused. "What?" Tom rubbed his temples. "Oh my god. Literally everyone has parents Matt. Even people as ugly as you!" Matt frowned, clearly upset. "I'm not ugly! My face is beautiful" he gestured to his face.

"Yeah right, your face has the look of someone who was dropped as a baby- oh wait! You were!" Tom went on, not entirely thinking, as he was still engulfed with the rage from his idiot of a friend. "That's why you're about as dumb as the kitchen shelf, except even the shelf does SOMETHING right."

Matt took a step back, realising how enraged Tom really was. "I-" Tom cut him off.

"What, Matt? Are you going to continue to try and tell me how you've done no wrong and how you're perfect? Don't even try it, I know you've got nothing! That huge head of yours has such a tiny brain that can't think about anything that could be classified as smart whatsoever!" Without even thinking, Tom yanked the lever on the harpoon gun down.

It was all so...sudden.

Matt looked down at the harpoon which had forced its way through his chest, and was poking out his back. Blood was already soaking his clothes and spilling out of his mouth. His arms fell limp at his sides, and he took a single step forward before falling to the floor.

Matt could just barely hear the sound of someone desperately calling out to him, but he didn't care.

The ringing in his ears was getting louder, drowning out the voice. Matt felt like he was going somewhere. Somewhere nice.

Tom, who had dropped to his knees next to Matt,

clutched the dying ginger. "Matt, please! Don't go! I'm so sorry!" But it didn't matter how many times Tom apologized, it was to late.

Matt was gone.

Tears began it pool in Tom's empty eyesockets, and eventually they overflowed. Tears streamed down Toms face like waterfalls as he hugged Matt tightly, even though the harpoon made it nearly impossible.

"What have I done?"

He sat there, clutching Matt's corpse for what seemed like an hour, until he heard something.

Footsteps.

Right outside his door.

Edd was right outside the door. Tom began to panic, there was no way he could let Edd see what he had done to Matt.

"Tom? Is Matt in there with you?" Edd called out through the door.

Tom responded with a shaky voice "N-no, I think he went out for a w-walk or something."

"Oh. Strange, I could have sworn I heard him in there with you" Edd footsteps moved away from the door, bringing Tom some relief. He looked down at Matt. Despite the harpoon lodged in his chest, he seemed so peaceful. Tom was on the verge of tears yet again.

"I'm so sorry"

Months went by, and Matt's mysterious disappearance was never explained. Of course a missing person file was set up, but without any clues, the case went cold. Both Edd and Tom had been greatly affected by Matt absence. Edd went out nearly every night and walked around for at least an hour in search of his friend. Tom, however, spent most of his time in his room. Eventually grass grew over the unearthed patch of dirt in the backyard, Tom's nightmares finally seemed to stop, and Edd regained some of his positive attitude. Although, it would never be the same. They both knew this.

The two remaining friends were sitting in the living room. Edd was flipping through channels on the tv, and Tom was reading. Other than the tv, the only sound in the room was coming from the rain outside. It had been raining since the early hours of the morning, and had been gradually increasing until the point where it was almost pouring. Tom flipped through his book, not really focusing on the words.

BOOM

The sound of thunder exploded within the room, causing the two to jump. Edd looked over at the window "Jesus, that sounded like it was right next to us" Tom walked over to the sliding glass door and looked outside. "That's because it was right next to us" Edd walked over to the sliding glass door "Holy crap, you're right" Indeed he was. A patch of grass had been scorched and was smoldering a little. But that's not what Tom was looking at anymore. He was looking down at the section of concrete in front of the door.

There was a trail of muddy footprints.

Someone was walking around outside their house.

Tom looked around outside, but couldn't find a trace of anyone.

Then, he heard the sound of the front door opening. Tom whipped his head around to face the door, which was on the other side of the house.

Nothing.

The front door was slightly ajar, the muddy footprints tracked inside.

"E-Edd, you better come see this"

Edd turned around a looked down at the footprints. "What the hell? Where did those come from?"

Tom slowly followed the footprints. "I think someone's in our house." Edd opened the front door and looked outside. Tom continued following the footprints until they faded out, leaving Tom at the end of the hallway, confused.

A freezing cold hand reached out from behind Tom and touched his shoulder. Apon impact it sent shivers though Tom's entire body. He slowly turned around, fearing the worst.

Time had not been merciful to the poor being in front of Tom.

He was covered head to toe in dirt, his once ginger hair had turned a dark, dirty orange color, and was falling out in some places. His eyes were glassy and pale, although pupils could be made out if one was to look hard enough. His hands had deteriorated over time, leaving them nothing but bone being held together with bits of muscle. The ends of is sleeves and the cuffs of his pants were frayed, and the front of his hoodie and overcoat combo was completely covered with dark, dried blood.

And the harpoon.

The harpoon was still lodged deep in his chest, just below his ribcage. It too was covered in dried blood and dirt, as well as rust.

Painful memories flooded Tom's head. This shouldn't be possible, Tom had killed Matt himself.

Yet here he was, standing infront of Tom.

"N-no, this isn't possible. You can't be here" Tom stuttered out. "Matt is dead. Y-you're not real"

Matt didn't respond. He took a single step forward towards Tom. Tom panicked and backed into the wall. "N-no stay away from me!"

Matt just stared at him with a blank look on his face. Finally, he spoke in a soft, raspy voice.

"Are you proud of yourself Tom?"

Tears began to flow down Tom's face. He slowly sunk to the floor. "Of course n-not Matt. I never ment to..." he trailed off, not wanting to finish the sentence.

Edd closed the front door and locked it, drowning out the sound of the rain. With the sound of the rain gone, Tom's wimpering was clear. Edd peaked into the hallway, horrified. Yet at the same time, he was happy. Matt was finally back, even if he was half-dead.

Matt spoke again. "You never even told Edd, didn't you? You just let him worry about me for god who knows how long" Tom didn't respond. Matt uttered a soft sigh. "I just have one question for you, Tom" Tom looked up at Matt, trying to avoid eye contact.

"Why didn't you do it sooner?"

Blarrgh i throw up blood everywhere after reading my own writing blaaurggh

[dexaroth]

megapost of commentary on the watcher dlc that ill keep editing multiple times below the read more hehe

HOLY FUCKING SHIT THIS IS THE BEST TITLE SCREEN ART EVER. the nice blue and purple ooough.. and what are those glittery moth things. they remind me of the way the batflies get turned into white pixies in the random buff mod

i always stare at the cutscene art so much bc it looks so nice and yet so simple. the parallax and blur effects make it so much more than just cutscenes. god i love the cutscene artworks

spent a lot of time fucking around (going up and turning back at the industrial complex region) and died to rain bc i didnt really see much point in saving just yet. oh well

i also completely forgot about the echo vision. which im gguessing, like saint, i have to find an echo. oops

Also Also one. annoyed that i cant eat meat and two. Why are there king vultures. AND why is that industrial complex region supposedly not behind a gate A N D why does it look like a bottomless pit though i think it isnt bc it doesnt have the famous pit gradient. god i miss the screen peek mod

i also just realized there are no batflies nearby?? rain world without batflies. can you fucking imagine. how

ITS THE SECOND DLC WHY ARE THE SHELTERS STILL THESE SHITTY BOXES. MAKE BETTER SHELTERS!!!! RAAAAGH

release me wench!! (i injured them and am awaiting the once present scavs to come back for some reason) -> i died lol

ok well i explored all pipes and it seems the only way is to go to the IC pit apparently. wack. i dont remember whether downpour named the starting regions or not. i wonder if i could go back up the intro ledge with a squidcada

ah. it really was just a named starter area. always cute when they do this thing of using an out of bounds part of a vanilla room as part of a 'new' region

went straight to chimney canopy since ic doesnt have an echo and im assuming this is a future timeline where pebbles is dead or collapsing. also the echo sent me to a room that wasnt rot-infected before yet it is now. dunno what to make of that

eww. what the fuck is this pulsating thing. if i can ill bring it to a shelter and see if it hatches or something bc apparently it tastes bad. also why are there so many bugs everywhere. good lird <- brought to a shelter and slept. nothing happened. i gguess theyre just rotted? or have bugs in them? they only exist in areas with a lot of bugs so..

ok. everything is rotten and a lot of regions are lost to rotten pipes. and the mysterious echo replaced all the others and theres fucking bugs everywhere. nasty! its not even blue rot, its the purple rot. i dont remember what campaign has the purple rot tbh. rivulet i think? it keeps sending me to the same place and im getting annoyed at the back tracking, but i also think the echo doesnt want me bothering it apparently?

OOOOOOOOO

oh god the lizards are rotting.

torrential highways! i can inside the little wagons! awww

FINALLY a different shelter. get real

oh wow. straight up portals. inchresting. hello coral caves

AETHER RIDGE LETS FUCKINGG GOOOOOOO <- i forgot about the annoying wind mechanic. nevermind

WHAT IS THIS CUTE THING???

OH MY GOD YOU CAN EAT THEM NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! theyre so cutes..

ah. i believe ive been poisoned

gonna give this thing the time of its life

ok well clearly theres these purple signal hotspots that need Something to be done to them but other than that i feel very clueless. gguess ill just fuck around anhd find out. tomorrow. im tired

my spiky slug guy simply despawned from my shelter. rip lil dude

huh. at first i thought they were like batteries, but then i thought they looked like test tubes and. well

speared this guy to see if they were unkillable like those damned frogs but erm? poison spear? and they didnt die either lol <- ok well they survive one hit but not two. and the one lizard i hit with the spear died so cant really say if its poisonous or not

i thought the yellow ring meant i already got the echo in the region but its absolutely the contrary and i was going crazy in rusted wrecks for no reason. theres always this one stupid obvious thing i get wrong. sigh. also there were so few rooms with a sand ground which is kinda sad.. i hope the snowy ground region has the same or more amount of rooms

badlands has been the most impressive so far though the moths are an absolute pain in the ass. i saw a scav use a spore puff though which is really cool. i never saw them do that even in downpour or arena, i wonder if its part of the dlc <- also i immediately lefft bc i found the echo in the first like 7 rooms lol. will go back later. heat is not my element

oh god what have i done <- food. yummy but also gross. ew

whoag.. floating whale.. also why did the echo marking in the map icons disappear. am i nearing the end?

go, my flying horsies

oh wow that was actually the intended solution to get to the other side. fucking awesome <- nevermind, you can grasp their whiskers apparently. neat either way

im atop the right(if there is another one?) tower in this pink region and im convinced theres literally no other way to get up here. i had to do trickshots off vultures bc there really seems like no other way. considering i was meant to grab the whiskers there i can only guess there HAS to be another way but. how on earth???

what the hell is the deal with this echo girl. whats up with her. is anything gonna make sense ever

WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME!!!! WAAAAAAUUUGHGUAAAGH

ok read the wiki and i dont have the karma for that. also i started today at 11h in the save and am kinda pissed i dont know where to go. eventually found the portal to unfortunate development though but im still annoyed i couldnt just make new portals -_-

there seems to be a rotted leviathan in the walls and somehow the pips indicate Something will happen at the end of the cycle.. scary

went to the left side of outer rim for absolutely nothing apparently. must be some kind of end game thing. but i do like the sandy part of the region quite a bit! i wonder what all the green glitter is though.

machine riser started playing help. scary. scared

ok theres fucking nothing in these towers apparently. well there was one of those waypoint markers that i cant do anything about but i had to just jump off bc the cycles are so small. annoyed rn

not sure if its a glitch but it seems slugcat is getting used to eating the rotten fruits? sometimes they faint sometimes not, but the times they do the stun seems to take less time. inchresting <- nevermind, eating rotten popcorn it just seems the stuns are uncommongly faster. sometimes

dude. that's where i already am. what

IVE ALREADY BEEN HERE WHY. WHYYYY. i dont have enough 'ripple' for that!!!! ughhhh. i am gonna mouse drag and do whatever i want this is so annoying

welp apparently ive explored the entire region already and didnt get anything from it. i guess all i can do now is go to other echo-marked regions apparently.

ive gotta say that while all the regions have been neat the fact that youre just a cowardly survivor is really really boring. this wouldve been fine if it was the first dlc but like, this really has been a walking simulator more than anything. i dont think ive really been enjoying it. there isnt any history for any of the regions (that i know of so far) so they really are entirely disconnected and hard to care about :/

Doctor Who Season 2 Episode 3- The Well

Why do you keep watching something that pisses you off? You may ask

(Reasonable tbh)

But its because i have hope that even in the trenches of misery there will be a glimmer of something beautiful.

Like a diamond.....

Look....Just...dont touch such a beloved episode. Its never gonna pay off.

We had nothing left to do with that concept, it was done it was complete, no touchy. Sometimes what we imagine inbetween the gaps will be far more than anything textual.

But basically this episode did finally make me work out what has been pissing me off all this season .

Its the redundancy. Every line and concept is repeated at least 3 times and it makes its pacing so quick yet so slow.

Quick in that we cut back and forth a million times but slow in that only 1 point is ever made. You could do twice as much with the run time if we didnt spend 10 minutes going back and forth over oops i see something. Wait no. Wait yes. Wait me too. But you cant i didnt see anything. Oh but like i can too.

Also it sucks having a deaf character in such a poorly written role because her character made 0 sense. She knows nothing and then exposits everything???

It felt really strange that at no point she communicated anything that her character knew and could have been replaced with a spooky lamp or something with the same effect.

I also just didnt like how they kept turning the translator on and off casual like. Like you cant have a character talk about how everyone should be able to sign and then constantly cut communication in front of the deaf woman. It comes across really shallow and performative.

Again sets, vfx, costuming and even acting were great but fuck me its in service of awful writing. Like what is going on?

Every moment holds a beat too long and then beats you over the head by repeating itself. And repeating itself.

Like i genuinely don't get how people can give it praise?? What are you seeing that i can not?

Every character acts like they came into existence 1 second before their line. Nothing before or after matters its just a series of shiny images being played really fast and that's not what a good episode should be.

[geeneelee]

Hi! Its me the anon from. Im gonna assume Its yesterday for you bcs timezones.

And oops sorry - turns out i know excatly what ur talking about and agree completely.

Ig ur first post just activated a sleeper agent inside me due to all the ... Interesting takes ive seen on my culture from westeners. Esp those who are left leaning but have not internilised at all that the rest of the world has diffrent politics. Im not even talking only about USAmericans here, ive seen French documentaries that make me want to bang my head against a wall.

Sorry. :(

I am from a post Soviet state and even though im not One of the indegenous peoples that live in Russia that the Kin was also based on - being from a post Soviet state and living in One of the cities most impacted by the Soviet population engineering and ethnic cleansing project (and just like for the Town in pathologic - if this is the result who cares if it was done with intent. Its still what happenned) - it always Made my blood boil when the patho Russian fandom said their not imperialiatic. People saying the Kin were based on the indegenous peoples of America always felt horrid to me bcs what abt ur own indegenous population. The One still living under you. The One who didnt manage to get away like We did.

Like. I was born 10 years after the fall of the Soviet Union and still i feel the effects it left like scars. Im indegenous to my land but i feel like calling myslef an indegenous person feels disengenous in this context. Bcs that term. At least in English i feel has p strong conotations.

But seeing People go "The Kin - oh their like the American indegenous People." And gloss over the fact that not only is ur country imperialist, colonist pricks to your own indegenous population. Your imperialist, colonist pricks to the populations of countries Near you who you still consider your property.

Its also fucking bizzare that someone said that the RCM is not supposes to be read as currupt when theres a whole ass song my country has about Cops being v currupt. It plays in partys. Its a banger. Ive never seen People argue that abt disco elysium before (thank fuck it seems), but it reeks of western european tbh. Who from eastern Europe would praise our police Force. Like. Theyre not AS Bad AS USA police. Ofc. And theyve gotten better over the years. But like. To say their good? That boggles the mind.

But yeah, sorry for all the esseys.

Best wishes from a random eastern european person 🤝

Thank you! Yeah, I suppose I wasn't specific about WHAT people were saying "Americans don't understand!" about. Both of these games should absolutely be analyzed through the context of the cultures and histories the devs grew up in, even if they took inspiration from foreign media/history. It just made me furious to see people try to absolve their own histories that way.

And you're right about the cop thing, I think it was western Europeans (and in one instance an Israeli guy) saying that, because they were arguing that the RCM is based on french cops who are fine and normal, as if there haven't been anti-cop protests in France because of police brutality and racism within the past few years.

tl;dr most countries have corrupt police and a history affected by imperialism, I get mad when people try to use "Americans are stupid" to sanitize their own history

It's pretty blatant phallic imagery, how Will turns on Mike and Mike gets turned on by Will

I just wanna have a little natter about hosegate because its beloved for me in this fandom, one of the first things i really fought tooth and nail for, because to me it was fun and actually made me laugh but also giggle and go 'Oop!' when i watched. also my art background means i am aware of historic phallic imagery, and while i can appreciate that many people wouldnt know about that per se, i didnt expect anyone to outright denounce it. if someone told me 'thats actually meant to be a penis' i would laugh and immediately prefer that to whatever it was before hahahaha. plus people have dirty minds, especially young people, its fun and i've never seen anyone say 'stop' unless its a teacher, so i was confused about why people didnt want hosegate to be real. but also, you know that basically every skyscraper is a phallic symbol, right? men have been competing to build the biggest building since time immemorial. there's even a joke about this in shrek of all movies. 'do you think he's compensating for something?'

so yeah i loved that shot, and while i wasn't exactly scouring the show for easter eggs on my first watch, i definitely dropped down to a lower fuzzy brain state while watching the back end of s4. i was so overwhelmed by everything going on that my brain kind of lost track of the big A plot and settled into this dreaming/waking feeling, and i started taking in the minor things instead of the Big Things. Hence, picking up on the hose scene, mainly because that shot of mike is incriminating AF. you don't even need the metaphor of will turning mike on (though it works well considering the specific shape of the tap itself, very penis + testes-like, could have been any other kind off tap but no?) - i think it works well enough to simply suggest that will is sexually attracted to mike. will has been in love all season but this shot cements his physical attraction to mike: the shot is from will's pov; mike is essentially standing there holding his dick in his hand and will is ogling him, seeing him in a new light, and we the audience have a front row ticket to Kneeling In Front Of Mike Wheeler, where will wishes he was. Could easily have shot mike as if from will's pov, that too would have looked sus, although much more like standing next to a dude at a urinal. this shot, as is, is... wild actually. because somehow we're on our knees inside the freezer. VERY specific sequence.

and what's not to love? love me a phallic symbol haha. it's a powerful thing in art.

so yeah, will is in love and sexually attracted to mike. this itself is revelatory for s4, narrative-wise. loved loved loved it. and i think we will get mike's pov version of being attracted to will in s5 with all his other reveals, but i'm happy with hosegate being just for our boy Will.

Yay!

ALL OF THIS! Hosegate is only a gate because people argued about it because some babies managed to watch the show and decided sex is bad. Boo. "I don't believe in hosegate" pedantic, but a gate is a gate in this fandom as lore/theoretical debate or fandom prominence. The scene literally happened! Fighting over it being or not being a sexual reference is the thing, but that's so boring - it just is. Being uncomfortable with that is a personal issue. Take some self reflection!

Anyway, being silly 😊 The Reference as I'll call it. Though there are many in the show (the way Will holds the painting in the van, the drill in shop class, etc.) It's very much about Will as much as Mike, I skipped over that part which you've detailed wonderfully. It's so sad the things people want to ignore to satisfy their agenda of personal discomfort with themselves - it's a show about teenagers but done through quite the intriguing lens of the literal horrors as actual horror. But it's about puberty and coming of age and sexual discovery. Especially for Will. To a point, blatantly about Will. The Reference is very much about his attraction to Mike.

He's a gay teenage boy. I forget the statistic, but some insane figure of how often sex or topics about sex flash through the mind of a teenage boy? It's wild. It's true. Hormones are insane. So of course The Reference is gonna happen, he's probably thinking it! Can we imagine for a second the agony this boy was in, besides all the other stuff going on, with Will already being kind of bottled up and uptight in guarded personality, tye the subject of his love and lust is back in his life, in the flesh, right there. He can touch him, see him, smell him. Will must have been going out of his mind internally. Mike Mike Mike.

All of that to say - love is good, great, important. The future for Byler is going to be about love. But... it's also gotta have the physical angle. That's the determining, differential angle. There's passion and arousal built into their feeling for each other. Something you can see with every other couple in the show, gay or straight. Chemistry. Desire. Attraction. As Steve rightly put it - sexual electricity 😉

WHAT IS VIGISECTIA WHAT IS THAT LIKE. WHAT . TELL ME MOREEEEEEEEEEEES PLEAAAAAASEEEEEE ‼‼‼

Actually, I am VERY glad you asked, as this gives me an oppurtunity to show off some. IMPORTANT !!! LORE!!! That i have not yet been able to touch on. The existence of other multiverses/universes outside the sillyverse!!

Vivisectia is the multiverse created by Noir. Id put a picture here for the people who don’t know him yet but uhhh i dont have a completed one. oops.

To Be Clear! I’ve been mainly focusing on the sillyverse (and a bit of Everything), Vivisectia is definitely the Least Developed universe/multiverse. But as characters for it are developed more I’ll be sure to tell you all about it!

It was a place that started off hopeful, Empty As Hell, but hopeful. It was similar to the sillyverse void at first, but it didnt even have the gray rocks it was literally Pure Nothingness. As time crawled forward, there were cities created, with thousands upon thousands of people, it looked pretty similar to Earth, Just with like some really weird creatures and unexplained entities. Soon, more worlds were developed, and Vivisectia blossomed into a full-on universe!. but Anyway things went down hill FAST. Noir began to gain this sort of Fascination with making his creations Suffer. He grew Tired, bored of making governments and peace and sunshine and rainbows. Characters he loved were torn apart and put back together, with some of the most over the top horrifying backstories you could imagine, there were tons of evil labratories and deadly plagues and famine and Basically Everything Bad You Could Ever Imagine.

I forgot if i mentioned this, but the Puppetmaster and Noir were close partners, even before Vivisectia was made. They both often helped eachother by sharing ideas and whatnot, which you’ll eventually be aboe to see once I’m done with some of the Vivisectian Designs. Also, the Sector-A vessels (along with Leafy) were made specifically to fit into Vivisectia, so the Puppetmaster could experience Noir’s worlds and spend time with his creations. The PM was particularly fond of two characters, Juno and Expy, who they often would snatch away from Vivisectia and take to a safe haven in the Sillyverse, before Noir would notice they were gone and they’d have to put the two back home. Noir also grew attached to a select few vessels, which is part of the reason the sector A vessels were put back in containment for so long. Not to protect them, but rather just because the PM couldn’t stand to look at them anymore. Brung back some bad memories.

But as time passed, they both grew.. well, distant. Noir often lied or hid things about Vivisectia, not wanting his friend to think less of him, all the while he got more and more extreme, putting all his morals aside for the sake of trying to freak the hell out of the Watchers and for the sake of his own sadistic joy. But Noir couldn’t hide what he was doing forever, and the Puppetmaster found out about the Many skeletons in his closet.. The two had a big arguement, in the Sillyverse which ended in Noir being cast out into the Abyss, never to be freed (a creator has much less power when not in their own universe, so he couldn’t just teleport out or anything).

At this point, the Sector-C gang had already been created, including Offiz, who’s basically a bioweapon MADE to fuck up another universe, that being Everything. So the PM ordered them to go into Vivisectia and basically take over everything. The most cruel entities there were killed, and peace was established for a while, until the universe started to collapse. A universe can’t really exist that well without its creator. And uhhhh yeah thats all i got so far

Like i said, more is coming soon blabla

“FROAKIE WHERE-“ oops went too far in this story hehe sorry now let go to the real story of today

Btw: This is a few weeks later when Furina joined the team and then meets senpai

(As ash and his friends with Furina on their side are going to get ash’s next gym badge  they meet a familiar person)

“Woah so you already have three gym “ Furina said as the group was making lunch thanks by clemont” Yeah it was kinda hard tho but we managed to do it “ Ash said as Furina nods” So what about you how many badges do you have” Ash said as Furina sweats” A-ah I um have none right now but I am training my froakie and my other pokemon to be more stronger to I can finally beat a gym” Furina said as ash’s Froakie and furina’s shiny froakie were talking’ So that really happened’ Shiny froakie said as Froakie nods’ Yeah but I learn quick attack faster then ever thanks to-‘ Froakie stopped talking since he sense something in the bushes and ash did too but Furina and her froakie didn’t know what’s going on’ Froakie what is going on’ ‘ you’ll see’ Froakie used bubble as another bubbles come out as well in the bushes” Well done Ash your Froakie has improved a lot the last time we met” The familiar person came out of the bushes with a frogadeir as everyone beside Furina her froakie know who it is

‘“SENPAI !!!”’

“Oh hey senpai nice to see you again” Furina said as everyone looked at her with confusion “ Wait what you two know eachother “ Bonnie said as senpai and furina nods” That is right we met when she came to see her brother in law aka her sister lover”*Yes from demon slayer cuz I got no ideas for this so bare with me*Senpai said as Furina walks up to him” That’s right say have you met my starter pokemon before” Furina said as she point at her froakie as senpai looked at it” Wait you a froakie have a froakie but a shiny one” senpai said as everyone was shocked” A SHINY ONE HOLD ON FURINA YOU HAVE A SHINY FROAKIE AND YOU DIDNT TELL US” Clemont said as Furina did her uncomfortable smile” Yeah I do have a shiny froakie plz forgive me for not telling you guys I am suck a mess right now” Furina said as she bowed down as to apologize to ash’s friends “ Nah it’s no problem Furina “ ash said as Furina smiled as senpai’s frogadier went up to the Shy shiny froakie to say hi’ Hello their-‘ frogadeir said but then the shy froakie went behind ash’s froakie as she got scared of senpai’s frogadeir” Sorry frogadier but my froakie is shy right now but you can hang out with her if you want “ Furina said as frogadeir nods to Furina” So why is your froakie scared around other pokemon that is the first froakie that is ever shy before “ senpai said as Furina looked at him” Well I am not sure right now but i made a promise to her that I will protect her no matter what” Furina said as the other nods.

The three water type pokemon starts chatting about stuff about what happen on their journey together’ So your trainer has three gym badges right” frogadeir said as ash’s froakie nods’Yup my trainer had work hard on getting those badges what about you froakie ‘ ash’s froakie said as shiny froakie spokes’ W-well my trainer has been teaching me how to do a move that all water type pokemon can do but only if they are strong enough’ shy froakie said as froakie and frogadeir nod ‘ And what is it?’ Froakie said ‘I-its -‘ then a net came up to the shy froakie as it screams’ AHHHHHHH’ shu froakie said as everyone but mostly Furina was shocked “ FROAKIE!!!”furina said as ash spoke” Alright who are you*too lazy to do team rocket hehe* “TEAM ROCKET!!!” “ It you again” senpai said as Furina was confused” You guys know them” “They are the ones who try to steal other people pokemon” ash said as Furina was shocked” Oh you must be Furina the famous performer I got to say your performance are amazing but sorry I have to take this Froakie away from you if it has been train to do a powerful move by you hehe” Jesse said as everyone was shocked “ What move is she talking about” clemont said “ I don’t know how you know that but I will not let you take away my Froakie as I promise it that I will protect her from any harm” Furina said as team rocket laughed” Ahaahahahaha you may say that but in reality you will lose your pokemon for good” James said as Furina grow angry “ Fine then if that what you want, Milotic and Dragonair I choose you and use water dragon” Furina said as she took out two pokemon and they use water dragon” Water dragon that is a ancient myth power only a legendary pokemon can do but only the water dragon pokemon the pokemon of justice” clemont said as everyone besides senpai was surprised “ A legendary pokemon that amazing “ Ash said which doesn’t surprised senpai since he knew that her pokemon could master the water dragon move.

Then team rocket got blasted away in the sky” I WANT MORE SCREEN TIME!!!” Jessie said as they went into the sky” Froakie thank goodness you are safe” Furina said as Froakie jumped into her arms nuzzling in her neck “ Good that you are safe little Froakie “ Ash said as Bonnie spoke” We should name the shiny froakie yn so we won’t get confused by your Froakie ash” Bonnie said as everyone nods” Yn it is “ Furina said as Froakie jumped off of Furina’s arms and went up to ash’s froakie’ Good to see you are safe yn’ Froakie said as yn smiled’ Thanks Froakie i am glad I am safe with you guys-“ then they heard Pheromosa calling and then gave a letter to Furina” Oh guess it’s time to go yn” Furina said as everyone expect senpai was shocked” What why can’t you stay a little longer Furina” Bonnie said as Furina nods her head no” Sorry but this is important and I have to return by home or my sister Kocho will be mad at me for not coming back” Furina said as ash whines” Aww man I forgot to ask if I can battle you in a pokemon battle” Ash said as Furina chuckles “ Until we meet again we will have a pokemon battle deal” Furina said taking out her hand as ash nods” deal “ they both shakes hand as senpei went to his own way with frogadeir and ash and his friends went to the other way as Furina and yn went to the other side.

(As yn has been save and Furina kept her promise and went through her own way and ash and his friends are going to the next gym to win the next gym badge what will happen as the journey continues

ok zoochosis review/critique From someone who hasnt even played the game lmao

for those who dont know, zoochosis is a horror game abt dealing with mutated animals while "interviewing" for the night shift at a sketchy zookeeper job. heads up this ended up being WAY longer than i thought itd be & it might not make any sense without having seen at least one playthru. oops!

i think it has a great premise! its got an interesting concept but it isnt done as well as it couldve been. theres a lot of questions that either get left unanswered or the youtubers ive seen play so far just didnt find the answers, which sucks. the story doesnt feel finished, & i will give the developers some slack given that the screenwriter for the game passed, but that doesnt excuse releasing the game in the state ive seen in the gameplay videos

to start, the tutorial doesnt explain everything it should. youre only guided thru Some of the main tasks & sure, ppl can figure the rest out on their own, but when the entire gameplay loop revolves around diagnosing animals you need to make sure the players know how to use all the tools to get the correct diagnoses. maybe its in character for doc, the tutorial npc/antagonist to leave you half-informed, but it can just be frustrating for the player. it isnt Too big of a deal but i have seen ppl make a few easily avoidable mistakes bc they werent properly filled in at the start

next, the bugs are Nasty, to the point of preventing you from progressing or getting the ending youre attempting to get. you have to collect parasites for a shot at getting a good ending (killing "the mother", who ill get to later) but some of the parasites will either vanish when theyre needed after collecting them or inexplicably be dead when you need them alive. ive seen animals mutate while the player was still in the exhibit & be killed, only for the mutated animal cutscene to trigger as the player was leaving. the mutant was already killed, so theyre stuck with danger music blaring & the species name & empty health bar at the top of the screen. i have yet to see manlys playthru, but i hear he suffered at the hands of bugs as well

pausing to say smth positive before i move on to my main issue, the visuals are fantastic! the animals, being the main feature of the game, are very well done & i rlly enjoy how they incorporated certain behaviors, such as the giraffes spreading their legs out to get low enough to eat out of the trough & a few of the animals randomly sparring (giraffes fighting with their necks, moose butting antlers). its a real nice touch & adds a bit more life to the animals. the mutant designs are a little hit or miss, theyre definitely scary & unsettling but some are better than others. it doesnt help that the lights in the enclosures often go out when they mutate, making it harder to even see the monster design as they scurry around

the animals you can visit rotate in & out every time you finish a run, which i guess is supposed to keep things fresh so players replay multiple times but it just gets annoying. 1 new animal every couple hours doesnt make up for the fact those animals will eventually stop being new Or that you get locked out of a different animal. why cant they just all be available & the player can choose which ones they visit each run? probably to force them to see all the mutant designs... which. all the mutant encounters play out almost the exact same way. only the elephant has an interesting mechanic, its got armor plating that you have to get rid of before you can dart it either to cure or kill it. you have to bait it into charging at a wall to knock off its plating, thats cool! it adds strategy to the fight instead of just shooting 3 times. none of the other mutants have smth like this, they just run/climb/fly around

but my main critique is the Story. it feels rushed & poorly paced. a lot of commenters on jacksepticeyes video said it wouldve worked better as a slower burn & i agree. a single night isnt enough time to let anything simmer or have any big realizations or payoff, & it makes replaying the game over & over to see more endings or get more lore incredibly tedious bc of how repetitive the tasks are

the characters motivations are either entirely unknown or not strong enough. the player, paul, takes the job in the first place bc his family is allegedly impoverished, to the degree you have the option to smuggle meat-based animal food to his wife so she & their daughter can have "real food." the reveal happens not too long after; its human meat. which, even if it Wasnt, why would he ever think to give his family animal food?? itd be nice to break things up by days with sections at home so the audience can see what his home life is like & get a better idea of why he would be so desperate

additionally, he shouldve been offered an even higher salary as hush money to give him more incentive to go along with the downright illegal things going on! paul is shockingly nonchalant abt everything going on & goes along with it with little resistance. he just tosses a LIVING WOMAN into a meat grinder bc he was told to!!!! i will say the player can choose not to do this, but itd be nice if paul at least hesitates a little so the player actually knows they have a choice & arent being forced into it to progress

doc, on the other hand, has No known motivations for any of the aforementioned illegal goings on & makes No attempt to hide it!! he doesnt even try to cover up what his whole little scheme is, doesnt try to soothe paul by claiming the woman "deserves" to die bc shes a criminal or smth, or that the bodies are sourced from somewhere "more ethical" or even try to make up some nonsense abt human meat having health benefits to the animals, he just comes out & says "yeah the animals mutate & they can only be satisfied by human flesh. dont tell anyone bc u signed an nda & itll be a violation + ill kill you" ???

he explains "the mother" sends out parasites to infect & mutate the animals but we never get to know Why. why is he going thru all the hassle of appeasing this monster? the zoo has been closed for at least a year, how are there still funds to keep everything running? he supposedly has big connections to the point cops are covering for him, but WHY? why is he so important that the cops cover for him, what do they get out of letting it all slide?? does he actually still care abt maintaining the animals or is the whole zoo now just a front to funnel in more sacrifices?? was it always that way?? where did the mother come from?? what, exactly, is she?? nothing is ever explained abt this!

By the way, theres some extra, completely missable dialogue if you grind the woman right away after being told to. you get another call where paul Attempts to protest, but doc is like "lol lmao btw you have the same parasite the animals do. maybe if you survive the night ill cure you or smth. at least the mutants see you as own of their own. also ur poor & u need the money so do this" & like. the game Starts with paul saying he might get the job if he survives, then he gets locked into the zoo & his phone taken away & it somehow doesnt raise any red flags for him while his wife is like "this isnt normal!!!!"

also, completely irrelevant, but when doc leaves he offers to tell pauls wife hes staying the night bc shes waiting outside bc yknoe. it was supposed to just be an interview. but paul says "nahh dont tell her shell figure it out" so like. wtf paul. its Raining & ur letting her stand out there waiting for you??? some husband you are :/

anyway. if the game took place over a matter of days, we could have time to adjust, rlly let things sink in & maybe get some more answers drip fed to us over time. maybe youve been smuggling meat to your wife for a few days, having it for family meals until you get your first paycheck, but now the zoos supply is out & you need to refill it; cue the human meat reveal. it would also be nice if you could monitor an animals symptoms over days & potentially prevent them from ever mutating! the games subtitle is "rescue the animals" after all. youre supposed to be able to pacify mutants by feeding them the meat along with their regular food, but if you leave to go prepare the food mix, you risk the normal animals in the enclosure getting attacked & dying!

the game leaves clues like "monitor how often an animal sleeps, it could be a symptom of illness" or "look out for wounds on the animals" but when everything can be diagnosed with the main tools, & noticing these things doesnt do anything to prevent mutation, it just ends up being useless flavor text. also, every enclosure has at least one sick animal & a mutant Every Time, theres no variety. maybe its not "scary" to not have a monster attack you every 10 minutes, but itd definitely add some suspense. maybe you cure an animal only for them to remain sick, showing that smth deeper is ailing them

a night by night system would also be more interesting storywise! instead of finding out all thr dark secrets right away, things just seem more & more strange as you go on. maybe youre advised not to look into it if you wanna keep your job so you fall into blissful ignorance so you can provide for your family. maybe you do snoop around & get offered life changing amounts of hush money for your silence, since theyd "hate to lose a good worker :((". maybe there are more employees, some innocently unaware of the truth, some burdened with the knowledge of what rlly goes on but too desperate or afraid to speak out

the woman mentioned a few paragraphs ago, the one who gets meat grinded, shes actually crucial to getting a good ending. shes sarah, an investigative journalist, & you have to rescue her so she can help you get the recipe for a poison to kill The Mother & all her parasites (which will save your life). the motivation for her murder is obvious, she was gonna leak the whole operation, but wouldnt it be much cooler if she was undercover as an employee throughout the course of the game? shes working alongside you, trying to get more info, trying to convince you "hey, isnt this weird?" only for her to vanish one night, fired for "accessing unauthorized locations." if you already have suspicions you might be inclined to dig deeper & be able to rescue her, or maybe you take her firing at face value, thats what she gets for snooping, right?

one last little thing id like to mention here, in the best ending of the game you save the woman & expose the zoo, kill the mother & doc in one fell swoop as her poison needs delivered in live food, & save your wife. thats right, your wife gets dragged into this! yknow why? bc if you dont answer her calls, she reports her worries to the police & they kill her! & you are misled into doing this!!! when you save sarah, she tells you not to call your wife back & to save your phones last bit of battery for the police when you get some more evidence, makes sense right? except if you dont, she gets killed by said police! you Have to call her back & soothe her so she doesnt report you missing at the zoo & get killed. theres No way of knowing this before it happens, forcing you to replay the game to get the best ending even if you already got the good one (but your wife died)

it couldve been so, so cool but the story especially just falls flat. it seems like they either rushed it or just cared more abt having an excuse to show off their scary monster designs & threw the story to the side. ive seen ppl complain that the game was too short for the price, but ironically you have to play it over & over for hours to get more story ...unless you happen to get the default bad/death ending & assume thats all there is. or get too frustrated by bugs & glitches that you drop it entirely. its not Awful but its definitely unpolished & it shows

[helmet-heart]

last book: Ngl it was probably the manual for a Mimaki Direct Heat Transfer printer. Digital copy I got from their website, but whatever.

sweet, spicy, or savory: spicy!!!!!!

last thing I googled: "mcgarrett and danno" becuase I couldn't remember their ship name. That didn't work so i gave up. It was also lowkey to check how to spell garrett because it looks wrong to me for some fuckin reason.

current obsession: still F1!!!!!! The WDC this year makes me want to bury my head in the sand tho. (NICE STORY TO ADD TO THIS: I texted my old coworker laughing because I didnt realize he was on the phone with my friend (thought it was another mutual old coworker) and he segwayed from that DIRECTLY into F1 yap about the WDC (he's a Max fan lolll) and I feel so fucking loved aidjsidosoj I'm usually so insecure about that stuff eeheeee.)

Looking forward to: SUMMER STILL!!! IT'S 15C OUTSIDE AND SUNNY AND I'M LIVING ALREADY. I'd like to FINALLY finally get back into sports and finally start working out now that it's warmer... I'd like to take up a kind of morning jogging routine if my knees can handle it. Start to work of some chub I've always bad and work on my upper arm strength at the gym to make part sof my job a bit easier... ALSO THO!!! The Historic France GP this weekend! I can hopefully find a stream of somewhere to watch Alain... and May 2nd I'm out for drinks with my old coworkers to celebrate someone leaving that hellhole so I get to see everyone again :)))))))))

ultimate masterlist.  ҉  myso masterlist   ҉   previous. ҉   next.

✼　 ҉ 　✼　 ҉ 　✼　 ҉ 　✼　 ҉ 　✼　 ҉ 　✼

✼　 ҉ 　✼　 ҉ 　✼　 ҉ 　✼　 ҉ 　✼　 ҉ 　✼

It’s happening, you think, picking the discreet, angelic white color for your astronaut - with a halo and all, truly, you are a seraph that stepped through the gates of heaven and descended onto earth to grace these morals with your presence...quite literally, you’re not only donning white in game, but also in real life, cute as a button or more like as a bunny. Cat girls are overrated - cat boys, on the other hand, you’ll ardently defend till your last breath - but bunny girls...Safe to say, your chat had been going feral. Your endless ego is fed well. You even swore on your heart that no devilish trickery would follow in this game - you had left your snake ways behind you.

No one believed you. The Roaches know you too fucking well.

The influx of new subs, however, do not. Look at this cute girl! She wouldn’t hurt a fly! You chuckle at the compliments. At the exact same moment, Rae pipes up on the discord call, “Y/n is leering and cackling evilly. No one trust her.”

Demon woman herself must be watching your stream before starting her own. You pout, all adorable and innocent, but your eyes gleam slyly. Truly, a mastermind of manipulation! Look at you go! The chat is swooning. The viewer number steadily climbs past 16K and you hum happily, welcoming all that decided to join your little clan, “Don’t listen to Rae. Wifey is mad because I said I’m not bringing her back a souvenir. Well guess what, bitch, I’m the gift.”

Your perfect image does not quite align with your tone, nor the affectionate nickname you call your roommate (bitch, not wifey). The new viewers are none the wiser though, just like your new stream mates.

There is laughter from people you don’t quite know. The lobby is almost full, but not everyone has trickled in yet.

“Filing divorce papers right now.” Rae mumbles, but you hear the smile in her voice. It makes you crack a grin, too. 

More hello’s and shy introductions to the people in the lobby. Sykkuno’s green astronaut pops in with a upbeat, “Hey, everyone! Hi, Y/n!” as his character circles around yours. A collective awww echoes in your stream chat as you, quite breathless at the wholesomeness, reply with a “Hi! Hi hi!” as well.

Corpse is next to join, mysteriously ominous. The discord call is pure chaos, everyone screaming over the other variations of his name while stressing different syllables. Silent as a grave, he just stands there, his black astronaut seemingly eyeing everyone in the lobby. 

Alas, when the noise dies down, he utters, “Whaddup, baby.” and it’s pandemonium all over again. You are screeching/laughing along with the rest. His astronaut swiftly glides to Sykkuno, still circling around you, “Hey, Sykkuno.” He says. The latter abruptly stops. The game hasn’t even started, and already - betrayal! Sykkuno starts circling around Corpse now, leaving you in the dust.

“Hey, dude!”

“Yo,” You interrupt, “I’m like here too, yeah?”

“Fight, fight, fight!” Pokimane jeers. You can’t see her, but you’re certain she’s pumping her fists in the air. 

“Let’s leave the bloodshed for the game, yeah?” Dream offers past her laugh ridden urging.

“No, fuck that, let’s start this shit right now,” Charlie declares - his monotone is strangely pleasant to the ear, and you lean back in your chair with a thoughtful hum. Something about his energy just clicks with yours instantly, but perhaps you’re judging too quickly- “Got my fucking knife ready to slit some throats. You can all pretend you aren’t ready to kill on sight, but that’s not me. I’ll teabag your dead fucking body.”

-yeah, no, your initial estimate had been correct! What a pleasant surprise, you feel like you and he will get along beautifully. 

“Way to be subtle, Charles.” Rae snorts.

“Subtle doesn’t make an interesting game, Rae,” He’s quick to bite back, “and if I’m Impostor, you bet your fucking ass I’m going after you first.”

“Noooooo!” She shrieks, rushing to your astronaut, which is still just standing there, abandoned, like the equivalent of that one emoji, “Y/n, protect me.”

“Of course, baby.” You purr. 

There’s mumbling in the discord call, though it’s barely audible. Corpse seems to be repeating the word to himself: Baby...Baby?...Baby...

“You’re gonna stab me in the back the first chance you get, won’t you?” She questions, already painfully aware of the answer.

“You know it!”

“Finally, someone that’s not fucking cowering in their boots and flaunting their real nature.” Charlie says, “Y/n, form a Big Dick Alliance with me.”

“Oh for sure, man.” You agree immediately, trailing to his in game figure, “Let’s show these virgins how it’s done.”

“This is going to be a mess, isn’t it?” Sean’s voice rings with a cheerful laugh, making you flustered. Yes, you’re actually playing with THE JacksepticeyeTM. You still haven’t fully wrapped your head around that part, “I’m very excited to see where this will go.”

“Nowhere good.” You say with unparalleled sincerity - every word you speak to him, the icon, the legend, the one of the few youtubers you actually actively follow, must be genuine. You doubt you can lie to him. He’s too good of a person. You admire him too much. Stuck between wanting to be a shady bitch and an absolute saint, you refrain from addressing him more - you are simply not worthy.

its the y/n trying to act like a normal person in front of jack for me

ikr she looks ready to join the monastery

each day we stray closer to gods light???

Your viewers are snide as always. Gosh, you love them.

The last player pops in, fashionably late, “Hey, y’all.”

“Hey, Bretman!” The call choruses somewhat harmoniously.

“Hi, daddy.” He’s speaking to Corpse now, a smile in his voice - you can hear it even past the static of his atrocious mic. Your eyes widen, eyebrows shooting up. Your friends are cackling, but confusion refrains you from doing the same - were you not the only one Corpse offered, seemingly so long ago!, to be his sugar baby? 

One betrayal after the other. You’re glad for the Big Dick Alliance. The name has a nice right to it, too. 

Corpse laughs, “...Hey, Bretman. How are you today?”

Damn, two sentences for him, but not even a word spoken to you!? You’re already scripting a very melodramatic paragraph you will text him after the stream. With poorly masked discontent, you mutter, “Wow, thanks for such a warm welcome, Corpse, my day’s going great, yeah, loving the company.”

“Now now miss girl,” Bretman chimes, “we can’t be all daddy’s favorite.”

“Careful,” Charlie drones, “I think you just got yourself onto Y/n’s shit list.”

“Right next to Corpse Husband and Valkyrae.” You agree, “Sykkuno!” You suddenly call him.

“Uhm-Uh-Yes?” Is his nervous reply.

“You’re safe.” You state coldly, “For now.”

“You are not going after Sykkuno on my watch.” It must be a belated holiday miracle because Corpse finally decides to address you. His words seem to awake something in him, “Hey-Hey-Hey-” He swiftly glides to you, standing right next to your minute virtuous angel, “When are you coming back to Cali?”

corpse stop acting weird challenge

literally omg lmao

he does bring up a good point y/n y u not in cali yet?!

^pack it up corpse simp he disrespected the queen when he didnt say hi

“Back off, buddy,” Charlie interjects, “this spot is for Big Dick Alliance members only.”

“I’m never returning.” You inform him, your voice cold like the Arctic snow, and the look in your eyes is no kinder. You feel like you’re having a stare down through screen. 

Silence stretches. Is this an intimidation tactic? Because if it is, it’s a paltry one. Your conviction to be petty is stronger than any vulnerability you might feel.

“Then I have nothing to say to you.” He admits and fucks right off with that. Fine, go join Sykkuno and Rae in their little corner of betrayal! Friendship ended with Corpse, now Charlie is your best friend.

“Okay, guys, guys, guys-” Toast, noting this is going to spiral any minute now, tries to catch their attention, “Let’s start?!”

You look into your camera, and the roaches know what you’re thinking. You’re twins like that, communicating telepathically. You are taking back your tender promise of not being a conniving bastard. It’s fucking on. You will destroy everyone in your path, starting with the guy you have a stupid crush on - maybe?! Feelings are confusing, you’d rather just not think point blank period.

With no objections from the cast, the counter ticks away seconds and, for the first round, you’re stuck as CREW MATE.

Charlie is a gift. Truly, you had not expected such a sudden, wonderful relationship to bloom. How have you not known of him sooner?! It’s a crime that you hadn’t spoken to him earlier. You are a 100% certain if you had found him before you started streaming, he would’ve been a big inspiration. 

The two of you do your silly little tasks and curse like sailors, commenting about this and that thanks to proximity chat. You wouldn’t have been able to stand the claustrophobic silence if it was just a normal Among Us game - to think, missing out on all his foully worded quips! It almost springs a tear into your eye. He’s just as unhinged as you.

worried about this dynamic 

its a trainwreck lol i love it plz collab more plz

Caught in a headed discussion in Electrical - TikTok trends, or audios specifically - you defend the app the best you can. Charlie thinks it’s super cringe, and you insist it’s part of the charm as you connect wires.

“I mean, have...-do you know that one audio, the one that goes, like,” You’re spilling your words, heated, frustrated that he’s so dismissive of the app that literally saved 2020, “it goes like, uhm,” You clear your throat, prep your voice - even take a sip of your favorite drink. Drawing the syllables, you try your best to make it drop an octave - it must sound like you’re doing an atrociously bad and nauseatingly scratchy Corpse impression with an extra dramatic flair, “My assssssss, your cockkk, you do the mathhh.”

“Did-Did I just-” You freeze hearing Corpse’s voice, finally done with your task. Charlie is muffling his laughter behind his palm; Corpse’s astronaut stands in the doorway, “What the fuck did I just walk into?” He seems genuinely confused, though a strangely winded. You’re mortified. Your shoulders are shaking. You look at the stream chat but it’s going too fast for you to follow. Manic laughter bubbles in your chest and you squeeze your eyes shut, mouth split into a toothy grin, lowering your head and trying to hide the blush dusting your cheeks.

“Hey? Guys? What the fuck are you talking about?” He questions again.

“Honestly?” Charlie chimes, “No fucking clue. TikTok, I think. Ask Y/n.”

You can’t reply. You’re crying. You cover your face with your palms, muttering a soft oh my god before bursting into a full blow laugh, throwing your head back, the motion accidentally knocking your headphones off.

“Y/n.” Corpse calls you, “Fuck was that?”

You’re howling. Your stomach hurts. There are literal tears in your eyes. You think Charlie might be laughing too, but you can’t really tell over your loud screeching. Hastily fixing your headphones, you wipe away the tears stuck to your lower lashes, heaving, “S-Sorry, I-” You stutter, breaking into another fit of giggles. Corpse patiently waits you to calm down. Catching your breath, you start again with a sniffle, “TikTok, yeah.” You idly fix your hair, trying to bite down a smile, “It’s an audio.”

“What- What kind of videos are you watching?”

“The good kind.” Your reply is instant, merciless, “Also, why are you here? We’re having a BDA meeting, you know.”

“I-I...” He trails off, “I...I heard people talking and...I just came here to check it out, but...I’m regretting it.” There’s a lilt in his voice, and you know he doesn’t regret jack shit. You bet he’s smiling. You wish you could see it.

“Bitch, then leave!” You huff. You aren’t sure what is with him today, and you don’t want to stick around and find out - his playfulness makes your stomach flip at the most inappropriate times! Like when you’re trying to sound threatening. You must retreat posthaste, “No, wait, I’ll do it for you.” You say, brushing past his character. Charlie follows after you.

“Dude, you’re so fucking lucky neither of us are the Impostor because you’d be deader than I’ve been feeling since I was 10.” Your favorite companion comments. Charlie is truly a modern wordsmith. You’re pretty sure you adore him, because you’re nodding your head, so quick to agree with him that even you’re surprised. 

✼　 ҉ 　✼　 ҉ 　✼　 ҉ 　✼　 ҉ 　✼　 ҉ 　✼

A meeting is called. You spare a glance at your fallen crew mates. They will be missed. Sean most of all, God, why does heaven always take the good ones?! The game feels emptier without him, even if you really only passed him once on your trek to Cafeteria with Charlie.

You may or may not have been avoiding him, afraid you’d accidentally say something horrible and he would hate you. It’s a silly fear, though a deep one. And with Charlie keeping you company, you had not uttered a single objectively  good, or even coherent, sentence. Your parents can’t watch this stream once it’s uploaded onto your Youtube channel. They know you’re barely keeping it together in most of your videos, but here, now? Yeah, no. Charlie is already hard to listen to on his own for sensitive viewers, and hearing you agree with literally everything he says with your own chaotic ideas? Your dad would stumble into an early grave.

Mom probably wouldn’t mind too much, but you’d have to explain your relationship status again. She is under the assumption that everyone you collab with is your significant other. You’d say it began with Sykkuno, though the exclamation of “Finally! My daughter isn’t pathetically single! We need to celebrate.” had started with Rae. Truly, a scandal.

Speaking of which, Sykkuno is gone, too, but you had time to mourn him already. You found his body roughly ten minutes ago; so torn with the fresh agony of heartbreak, you could not do anything else but cry. It was Charlie, bless his heart, that reported it.

“Someone killed Jack,” You say, voice dripping with venom, “court is now in session. I’m ready to vote the fucker out.”

People speak all at once. Toast roars over them, “ORDER! ODER IN COURT!” as he slams his hand onto his desk repeatedly. That seems to work, though briefly.

“I think it’s Y/n.” Corpse says. You stare at him, hand gripping your heart, mouth falling open in surprise.

flame him

corpse boutta be a corpse fr

beat his ass queen!!!!!

“Pardon my french,” You grumble, “but nani the fuck?!”

“It’s definitely Y/n, I found her and Charlie conspiring in Electrical. Surrealist experience of my fucking life, but it’s definitely her.”

“Dude, we’ve been over this,” Charlie sighs, shushing Rae who was about to comment something - knowing your luck, it was probably in favor of the man throwing you under the bus, “we would’ve snapped your fucking neck the moment you walked in. But we didn’t.”

“Yeah, we didn’t.” Corpse notes, “I said nothing about you, I’m just saying it’s definitely her. She probably didn’t kill in front of you because of your stupid alliance-”

“Someone sounds salty because he wasn’t invited.” Pokimane snickers.

“-or possibly she did tell you and you won’t betray her for the exact same reason.”

“That’s some big brain logic you pulled there, genius,” Charlie says, absolutely unimpressed, “sure you didn’t have an aneurysm trying to connect all of that together?”

“Well,” Rae pipes up, “Y/n and Charlie did say they will kill right before the game started. If you ask me, it’s not unbelievable. And Sykkuno was sorta on the shit list.”

“I’m writing down your name twice, Rachell.” You spit.

“Not helping your case at all, Y/n...” Dream worries, “And Rae makes a good point. Charlie and you have professed desire for murder. I’m just saying! It’s a bit suspicious, you know?”

The next words to leave Corpse’s lips sound incredibly smug, “See?” He drawls.  The pressure is getting to you - you don’t understand where this beguiling talent of his to convince literally everyone comes from, but it doesn’t inspire any confidence. Your fist suddenly feels incredibly lonely, so useless - oh, how you long to swing at him, “It’s definitely Y/n.”

“I dunno...” Toast mumbles.

“It’s Y/n.”

“Corpse-” You try, but he's ignoring you - shocker, as if he hadn’t been doing that from the very start of this stupid game - and chanting your name like it’s a fucking mantra or something, a smile in his voice, knowing, relishing in the fact that he’s grating on your nerves, “FIRST OF ALL,” You scream into the mic, successfully cutting him off; catching your breath, you exhale, and continue, calmly, lowly,  “get my pretty name out of your mouth.” 

There’s a pause full of tense silence. 

Then, there’s a sound, seemingly stuck in the back of his throat, “...O-Oh...?”

“Second of all,” You continue, words like honey dipped in arsenic, “This is the clearest smear campaign I have ever witnessed. By how hard you’re trying to frame me for fuck knows what reason, I’m led to believe it’s you that killed them. You’re the Impostor.”

“Corpse wouldn’t kill Sykkuno, though.” Rae comments, skeptical.

“Then the other Impostor did it.” You counter.

“Maybe you’re both Impostors.” Pokimane chirps.

“Y/n would never betray the Big Dick Alliance like that.” Charlie states.

You grin, “Charlie, I literally love you.” 

“Wait hold up now,” Corpse seems to get his bearings together, “what’s this about love I’m hearing?”

“I have none for you, dick.” You snap, flipping him off. Your chat cheers. While he can’t see it, you hope he senses it through the screen, ��I officially hate you.”

“No, wait-”

“Boo, Corpse, you suck.” Toast laughs.

“Y/n, please-”

“Let’s all vote for Corpse Husband, okay?” You say it like it’s his full official name with an encouraging smile and multiple soft nods. Sykkuno can’t be here to nod, so you’ll do it for him. You eye the rapidly decreasing timer before clicking on Corpse’s figure and voting for him. The VOTED icon instantly pops up beside your adorable astronaut.

“Baby, I-” It slips past his lips so easily, as if he’s not even thinking about it, like it’s only natural to call you that and a spike of anxiety shoots up, making you glare. It’s only halfhearted. You try your best to ignore the rapid and uncoordinated pulses of your heart. Replace unwanted feelings with anger and hate - works like a charm, every time.

“You are not allowed to call me that.” You hiss. The chat spams snake emojis. 

“Wait-” Bretman chimes, “Hold up, y’all, slow down a minute. Why does Corpse never call me baby?”

“Yeah!” Pokimane agrees, “I want to be baby, too!”

Pokimane may not have been called baby, but you just single-handedly decided her nickname for her - Target 4. Welcome to the shit list, she is officially your public enemy number 1. You aren’t sure why the thought of Corpse ever referring to anyone else as baby makes you sick to your stomach (you actually do know why, but brain no think at the moment), but you wish this whole conversation never happened. You don’t like it.

20 seconds left. More VOTED icons appear by your friends. Corpse is the last one to cast his ballot at, you assume, you, as the rest wait for his quick explanation before everyone (or not) returns to the game, “...Because she’s my baby.”

Goodbye. Life had been sweet, and there was sorrow, though the amount of embarrassment you feel now is worse than when the internet found your cringe worthy high school pictures on your mom’s Facebook. It’s a mixture of dread and excitement - the pleasure of being noticed, cherished even, though anxious from vulnerability. Someone is screaming a very prolonged “WHAAAAT?!”, or maybe multiple people are, you aren’t sure, your ears start to hurt from the loud, conflicting cacophony of voices as you stare blankly at the screen. You received two votes, just like Corpse, Charlie got one, the rest skipped. With no one flung out, you all find yourself back in Cafeteria again.

Baby. My baby? My baby. My baby. The sentence is playing ping-pong in your mind, reverberating louder each time. You’re actually speechless for the first time in your life; your chest hurts, your heart beating so fast your hands start shaking. Had he meant it? Or was this a some joke? Was he trying to get a rise out of you again? You might just go insane from so many questions. My baby. Holy shit, this is a heart attack, this is what a heart attack feels like, dear God, you figured you at least had ten years before you get one!

First round ends with IMPOSTORS raining victorious. Your sixth sense had been working wonders since, true to you previous estimate, it had been Corpse. His companion was Pokimane. For absolutely no reason what’s so ever, you change her name once more from Target 4 to Target 1. Normally, you’re all for girls supporting girls. Men don’t deserve anything, really, but now you’re so flustered and still reeling from what you are 80% sure was cardiac arrest that you genuinely don’t care about your established morals.

Round two starts without much deliberation. You get CREW MATE again; the game must sense your growing bloodlust, making sure that once you do get IMPOSTOR, you will not hold back. True power is granted to those who are ready and strong enough to wield it. You wait for your moment with bated breath.

Charlie is taken from you too early. The two of you were once again caught in a discussion - God knows about what, Minecraft, hentai, oh! your server! - as you tried to card swipe for the umpteenth time. The lights blew out and you just knew one of you was getting murdered there and then. Charlie’s voice abruptly cut off, and you think a part of you died with him.

It’s a cold meeting; with your new best friend being the first to go, everyone decides to skip. You proclaim you seek vengeance. When the meeting comes to an end, Sykkuno is the first to offer his condolences.

“I’m sorry, Y/n.” He says, and while he’s not in Brooklyn, you somehow feel him patting your back. You feign a sniffle.

“There’s nothing to apologize for...” You murmur sadly, “Unless...” Your voice turns sharp as the knife that was surely twisted into Charlie’s back, “It was you?”

“NO!” He exclaims, “I would never-you gotta believe me! I would never kill him. I know he’s important to you. I wouldn’t do that, I swear.”

“He was like a brother to me.” You admit, solemn, “Charlie, if you’re haunting me right now, know I will avenge you. I will not let this go.”

Sykkuno hums, circling around you, “Hey, I have a task in Greenhouse. Would you, uh--Would like to, uhm, join me?” Despite the shaky start, he finishes on a firm, pleasant note. He’s trying to cheer you up. Having lost your closest friend, he’s offering you his company. You accept with a soft smile and a cute “Yes, please!” and he releases an airy little laugh. The two of you make your way to your favorite place in map MIRA.

It’s difficult to stay sad for long when Sykkuno’s so sweet; the atmosphere of the Greenhouse is strangely calming; your problems seem to be left behind the shut doors. If you tried hard enough, you could imagine being in an actual Greenhouse - the warm, damp air clinging to your skin, the unmistakable smell of earth and vegetation, the pleasant silence broken only by yours and his hushed voices and clumsy footsteps.

The two of you are talking. Mainly about your choice of attire. Cat first, Sykkuno ponders aloud, doing his task as you watch the plants grow, now bunny, what’s next? You affirm that you will most likely dress up in cow-print next, or as an adorable sheep. He laughs, admitting you’ll look good in anything before he trails off. His awkwardness is really endearing. 

“Or!” You chirp happily, content with being locked away with him for the whole game. The idea must be playing in his mind, too, because he seems in no rush to leave, “I could, like, dress as someone from My Hero Academia. I watched the stream you did with Stella, the one where she made you look like Todoroki. It was really cute. You were really cute.”

“Oh, uhm-well, uh, thank you, thanks, I, uhm-” He clears his throat, and despite his stutter, you hear the smile in his voice, “I-I think you’d look better, though. Not as Todoroki. Or, probably as Todoroki, too. But, uhm, what character are you thinking about?”

“Maybe Momo?”

“Momo!” He yeps, “Momo is good. Yeah, she’s great. You’ll-uhm-you’ll look amazing. Really. Momo is awesome. Very pretty. Just like you.”

You are blushing. A stupid, toothy grin makes your cheeks hurt. Your eyes flicker to the chat, but again, it’s going wild. Giggling, you thank him for his sweet words, so giddy it’s honestly embarrassing. Why can’t you stop smiling? This is incriminating. You hide your lips behind your palm.

“...What’s this?” Corpse question. You had failed to note his sudden appearance, too busy gushing. “Am I interrupting?”

“Hey, Corpse!” Sykkuno greets. For someone so awkward and shy, he sure is good at hiding it when he wants to. Perhaps it’s all an act and you had been deviously tricked! Probably not, but you can’t help but narrow your eyes suspiciously, finally able to calm down. You definitely underestimated him, you just haven’t figured out how yet, “Not really! Y/n was sad Charlie died so I took her here.”

“You interrupted our date, dipshit.” You deadpan. 

“...Fuck you say?” Corpse dares, his voice low and somewhat menacing - for someone who exclusively portrays his emotions through only his voice, he’s incredibly hard to read. This is payback. Your love for wreaking havoc resurfaces suddenly. Serves him right for pulling all this ignoring shit at the start. Maybe you’ll make him say oh again.

Your sly smirk is promptly wiped. Fuck. He said oh, he literally said oh out loud. The Teruhashi fangirl in you is screaming. You had been so caught up in defending yourself you didn’t even register it at first. Alarmed, you look at the camera, then at the chat. First oh, then my baby. There’s no way he had been teasing you, and this proves it. Holy shit. You mouth the words “HE SAID OH!” for your audience only.

now she notices

snail pace baby we’ve been loosing our shit for the past hour 

corpse x y/n saikik au enemies to lovers 500k words slow burn im here for it

opening wattpad rn^

Your heart races in your chest - it might be considered an Olympic medalist at this point; flustered yet again, you wish you could cave into yourself. You should’ve brought your bright blue wig with you to Brooklyn. Turns out it would have been perfect for this stream. Yes, yes thinking about unnecessary details always works in distracting you from the butterflies throwing a fucking rave in your stomach. 

“I guess it is a date!” Sykkuno admits, “Kinda after a funeral, but still.”

Corpse hums. You’re still too stunned to say anything. The black astronaut with adorable cat ears approaches Sykkuno. 

“It’s not.” He states. Your mouth falls open in shock as your date, your companion, the Shoto to your Momo is murdered in cold blood right in front of you. His lifeless body, cut in half, lays on the tiles by the growing flowers, right beside you, “You didn’t see shit.”

“...I didn’t see shit.” Is all you can utter, breathless and terrified.

“Thaaaat’s fucking right, baby.” Corpse coos, “Now I’m gonna report it, and I’ll say we found Sykkuno together. Better stick close to me after the meeting, got it?”

If Sykkuno is Shoto, then Corpse is definitely Dabi. 

why is that kinda hot tho omg

didn’t know i needed dom corpse since now but i do

y/n looks like shes boutta throw up lmao 

✼　 ҉ 　✼　 ҉ 　✼　 ҉ 　✼　 ҉ 　✼　 ҉ 　✼

You follow him around like a lost puppy - because what else is left for you to do!? You’re helpless in this situation. He’s got you in the palm of his hand, successfully eliminating everyone you had previously interacted with. First it was Charlie, then Sykkuno, even Sean, who said hello in passing, was shot instantly. Real Sangwoo behavior. You almost want to scream warnings at everyone to not approach you. You cannot mourn another lost crew mate, you don’t think your conscience can take it. But words fail to form. You’re too weak. You fake cry to your audience. They’re quick to remind you to stop acting like a little bitch.

“Mean.” Is all you say, eyeing the comments.

“Hm?”

“Was talking to the roaches.”

“What are they saying?”

“That I should betray you.”

“...Better not.”

A shiver shoots up your spine and you half believe he will bust down your door and drag you into his basement for real. A nervous laugh slips past your lips, “I won’t, I won’t.” You reassure him, “Don’t worry, I’m sticking with you. I haven’t seen shit.”

“I like that you listen to me. You always this agreeable?”

“You’re kinda not giving me a choice right now.” You grumble, vending yourself a drink while he looms behind you, protecting you. From who?! Himself?!

“Oh my fucking God, finally,” Bretman exclaims, “girl, I’ve been running around the whole map trynna find someone, is everyone like, dead?”

You’re scared to reply. Corpse does it for you, “Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, maybe? Not sure. Where have you been?”

“Oh you know,” Bretman grins, “doing tasks, talking shit, the usual. You two are not, like, Impostors right?”

You shoot a look at Corpse, but he obviously can’t see it. Biting your lip, you murmur, “Nope.”

“Just your regular crew mates doing regular crew mate things.” Corpse says, no, purrs. Because that’s not suspicious at all. You’d recommend Bretman to run, and not only because that sounded shady as fuck. But he seems to enjoy danger, or he just doesn’t care.

“Hmmmm, crew mates, sure. Miss girl Y/n,” He’s addressing you now; you smile anxiously, “How come every time I see you, you’re with a different man?! Like damn, leave some for the rest of us, for real!”

You like Bretman. You like his high-pitched whine and drawl. You would like him even more if not for the complex situation at hand. You fear for his life. Chewing at your bottom lip, you snicker, “Sorry, Bret. I can leave you Corpse if you want?”

He laughs, “Girl, I’d say yes so fucking quick, but I know he wouldn’t want that. Normally I wouldn’t care, but y’all are such a cute couple it’s making me not want to be a shady motherfucking bitch. Changing my ways, embracing the lord. Love it.”

 Corpse doesn’t correct him that you are, in fact, not dating. His lack of reaction unnerves you slightly. Does he...? No! No think! Only exist! You catch that train of thought and steer it away from forbidden territory. Looks like it’s up to you to clear the air, and that is exactly what you do after trying to swallow down the lump in your throat, “Uh, we’re not together, actually. We’re just really good friends.”

“Bitch, then move over,” Bretman says snappily,”go like, back to your other boyfriends. Or find another one. I think I saw Dream near Navigation.”

“Near Navigation, huh?” Corpse hums thoughtfully. It’s a subtle warning, but you catch it. Yeah, even if you try running, Dream’s going to join your other ‘boyfriends’ in the afterlife. Granted, killing someone by just talking with them is kind of cool. Or maybe Stockholm Syndrome is finally kicking in, “Bret, the thing is, Y/n’s scared of dying, so she asked me to stay with her.”

It’s disturbing how good at lying he is. It is also really really attractive, as bizarre as that is.

y/n stop being in a toxic relationship with corpse challenge

making fanart of this omg her face

its the blushing for me girl get your head outta the gutter!

^she cant, it lives there

“Baby, you’re gonna fucking die if you stick with her,” Bretman points out, “have you noticed the mortality rate of her partners? Rest in peace, daddy.”

“He’s right, you know.” You mutter, dramatically looking to the side, “I’m no good, Corpse.”

“Not leaving you, end of discussion. Bretman, join us?” Corpse offers, catching you by surprise. He might still be lying, though. Creating a false sense of security before eliminating Bretman. Probably would laugh while doing it, too. Wow, he truly is evil.

Turns out he doesn’t have to do any of that, because when Dream strolls into Cafeteria, he kills Bretman instead. The two Impostors are finally revealed. You promised not to snitch on Corpse, but you didn’t say shit about not exposing Dream. You press the REPORT button and say just that: “Dream just murdered Bret right in front of me and Corpse.”

✼　 ҉ 　✼　 ҉ 　✼　 ҉ 　✼　 ҉ 　✼　 ҉ 　✼

The last meeting is called. Dream had been voted out with the help of Corpse, and now only you, he, and Rae remain.

“Baby, you know what to do.”

The VOTED icon pops up beside Corpse’s astronaut. Rae wheezes, “No! Y/n, it’s not me, you gotta believe me, I swear it’s not me!”

“...I really don’t know,” You murmur, “I’ve been with Corpse a lot, and...Rae, I’m not sure...”

“Please! I swear it on my Kagayama cardboard cut out, I’m not the Impostor, please! You know me, I’d never lie to you like this.”

“She’s definitely lying.” Corpse says, sounding pleased.

“Don’t listen to him! Remember, during the first round, when he tried to convince us that you were the Impostor? He’s doing the same shit to me!”

“I also remember you agreeing with him.” You remind her.

“I was stupid! Small dumb brain moment! He was using us to win! He’s using you right now!” She votes, “Please, Y/n, make the right choice.”

You’re silent for a moment.

“I’m gonna...I’m gonna vote for who I think it is.” You lastly say.

A slow, lazy grin makes it’s way onto your lips, eyes gleaming mischievously. You had not forgotten your promise to your brother from another mother, you had not forgotten the pride of the BDA, you had not forgotten your beautiful friendship. Two miniature astronauts pop up by Corpse’s at the exact moment Rae screeches “YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!”

“Fuck.” Is all Corpse says with a laugh.

The screen changes, informing of the first CREW MATE victory.

Your ears are assaulted with different voices as you appear in the lobby.

“Now that’s what I’m fucking talking about.” Charlie raves, “I swear to fucking God, Y/n, you even got me going for a second. Pulled some 1000 IQ shit right there. It was fucking amazing. Best back stabbing I’ve seen in a while, and I’ve seen a lot.”

“That was absolutely fantastic, Y/n.” Sean applauds, “I really thought you joined Corpse like some crew mate accomplice or something. Can’t believe you switched on him at the last second.”

“That’s my wifey!” Rae cheers, strolling to you, “Love you, mwah.”

“Hey, Corpse,” Charlie calls him, “How does it feel to be a fucking loser?”

“I’m surprisingly fine with it.”

yeah he would be lmao

mom is the best snake ever i love you sm y/n

rae and y/n’s friendship....the feeeeeels

As the rest sing your praises for another solid minute or two, the third round begins. CREW MATE again. Though, just because you’re stuck as an underpaid worker in a dying spaceship, it doesn’t mean you’re innocent. Your last round proved that quite well. You can’t help but silently snicker.

dp megapost part 3: while waiting for the fansub of mirai days to appear i decided to get back onto dp. didnt fall off because i was bored! i had apartment maintenance. then holidays which were a little stressful. then back pain. then more maintenance. but that's all over now! watched till the end of episode 9. i'd have done more but the fansub appeared before i could start ep10. first: ran.

i demand that you look at her. do you see the vision. this bitch is ransgender... also, super sillymoder. i thought yui was the sillymoder but we now have a superior sillymoder. two sillymoders on the same team... what a time to be alive. second, mem-mem.

of course the tgirl gets the gnc fairy dragon boy. we love to see it. i've only had three episodes with him, so not much in the way of personality yet, but these two on top of gay kokone and enby rosemary are starting to challenge kira for the queerest team title. i do not say this lightly. i only say it because there's only one character with a very solid trans allegory argument with akira (sorry muffinmoonn i DO respect the transmasc ichika hc i just didnt see much basis for it in the show please do not strike me down with furious vengeance). the rest of the cast may be gay there, but with only one trans person it feels a little token in comparison. here though we have two of em! and a gnc fairy to boot. yui is currently an enigma but we shall see how the foodie polycule theory evolves. third, takumi, and also the bundoru gang. i'm sorry man, that wasn't your fault. burger date is an a+ idea you almost had it. at first i was a takumi hater because i wanted to see the gay happen, but honestly it can probably happen WITHOUT yui given how episode 9 went. the girlies WERE fighting but they figured stuff out. as such, takumi is fine by me. hes ok. at this point for someone whos in the op and all that im not sure why hes not in the show MORE. time will tell i suppose... funny part about gentlu: i had a friend accidentally spoil the reveal that she was amane- but that was in the middle of my unplanned hiatus, and i didn't even realize itd be the literal next episode where the show itself would allude to it. oops. anyway, "gentlu" is seemingly something of a twilight from gopri situation, where the evil gentlu has seemingly nothing to do with amane, judging by what narcistoru said. takumis potential relationship with the baddies based on images ive been semi-spoiled on seemingly relate to this... but i'm probably too early to tell. we shall see. as for secrotoru, still completely in the dark. dunno who she is. currently my only complaint is how much of each episode is transformations. this is enough to make the second half of mahopre blush. i'm aware that at some point during this shows airing that toei was hacked, so its possible that they wanted the all three ready by now but were impeded (and the transformations are there to pad time since thered be less time to make actual episode), but i just hope this isnt the case for all the way till cure finale. also its a little bit cocomelon-core but im willing to overlook it. anyway, still absolute cinema. will be filling the time between gay witch weekends with more of this.

i watched episode 1 of delicious party precure tonight and can i just say that rosemary is the best thing ive ever seen in this series. thats a nonbinary person. and they get to just hang out. and beat up bad guys with the cures. this is huge.

if we ever get another emissary-from-the-fallen-kingdom type person i dont want any more okada joes or cocos i want nonbinary people and i want them now!!!

hi hi its me again i loved how you did my request and its so good!!! i am probably going to idea dump sorry anyways so what if c!reader knew how to play the guitar and woke up and teyvat just gave them a guitar after they were like 'i wish i had my guitar to destress because this is very stressful' and then one of the acolytes hears them playing in their room but the lyrics are in their language and sad and self-deprecating but they dont know that so they just brush it off until they hear the reader playing again later and its like alien blues or something but theyre speaking in teyvat language. ok so that was idea one (this might get a bit long sorry about that) NOW LET ME PROPOSE TO YOU FLOWERFELL READER, AN IMMORTAL READER THAT CAN STILL DIE BUT GETS REVIVED AT LIKE THE WINDRISE TREE WHERE THEY WAKE UP!! they like wake up with flowers coating their face after they fall out of a tree because the CLIMB instinct was strong and suddenly oops i cant see out of my eye uh oh!! idea 3 so what if reader didnt actually go to the main nations and just lived in like a tree or something and got food from the squirrels and foxes that climbed the tree?? and next, may i propose, reader with tattoos or seaperson reader from like luca or something!!! but also just sleepy zoned out reader and really clumsy c!reader or reader with hearing aids!?! hhh reader with a HUGE sweet tooth like larger than ei's but also reader who just radiates warmth and reader who is absurdly flexible and like put their ankle behind their neck flexible-- thank you for coming to my ted talk and i have SO many more ideas but jf9aj

WARNING: mentions of death, not graphic or detailed, but I'll put a warning anyways.

Okay so- Flowerfell AU but Angsty Sagau!Venti x reader?? Once upon a time, he takes you on an adventure (maybe you're flying with him????) and it doesn't end well. You wake up at Windrise but somehow your vision has changed. Now growing from your left eye, there are many cecilias covering your vision. Que the angst with Venti wanting to protect you but it keeps happening no matter what he does? And then after your last death, he keeps waiting at Windrise, but you're too covered in flowers to talk or move??? 👀👀

Or with Angst Imposter!Sagau. You died during the hunt for the imposter. When you died and revived yourself, it was obvious to the people that you are the real deal. Sadly, your vision is already gone since flowers are covering your face.

OR reader getting teleported to Tevyat, either as the creator/isekai AU. Them not wanting to interact with people bc they are supposed to be 2D? You're not ready to talk with people who seemed so out of reach from you. SO, you're just living in the wild. Chilling, and if you're a SAGAU reader, hillicurls and slimes will provide you food and comfort.

AND HOW I LOVE HEARING AIDS READER!! I was born half deaf in both my ears, so I've been wearing hearing aids my whole life!!

You really make my brain go brrr with ideas,

I might write a short thingy for one of these but all of them are good and it's hard to choose AAAA

Also, I'm supposed to finish chapter 5 of sagau. It's done, just sitting there, but I need to edit it before I can publish it.
