Ghouls as Lifeguards
Because I am, once again, bored at work. Don't worry abt it. Sometimes life is making bad posts to appeal to you and only you .
Frostheim
Ohhh you'd think they're good. You'd really think. But you would be so wrong.
Jin Kamurai
His ass is NOOTTTT WORKING. Oh my god he is Not working. He's the supervisor you have who sucks and doesn't do anything yet bosses you around forever. You make a group chat to complain about him and he inexplicably discovers it. Its horrible. You hate him. And yet, somehow, you never have any issues with patrons.... (its because he Makes Them respect you. And then denies doing it. You will never learn he fights for you. He will always be That Asshole Supervisor). 5/10
Tohma Ishibashi
He's the tolerable supervisor but he's like. He scares you. Lowkey. If a parent comes up to him he's like sorry my guard did that I'll Talk To Them. EVEN IF IT WASNT YOUR FAULTTTT but the way he says it really makes it feel like your fault. However. Later you learn that parent got in trouble and was banned from the pool for completely unrelated reasons and you looked at him and he went 'That's unfortunate for them ^_^' and the look in his eyes was so cold you searched for every life preserver for yourself Just In Case. 8/10
Kaito Fuji
Took this job for: cash and to be popular with women. Ended up: sunburnt as hell and ready to go homeevery goddamn second. He turned his back once to flirt with someone and a kid started drowning and he panicked so hard he tried to save the kid and he DID but passed out immediately after. And then. He was fired. 3/10 bc he Did Save That Kid...
Lucas Errant
Bad in the other way. He's not Quite 'no fun allowed' but he's close!! Always blowing his whistle and telling kids to stop doing things. Always worries someone is drowning when they clearly aren't. Doesn't understand waterslide dispatch. The parents love him tho. Kaito is so mad about it, always. 3/10 but if you put him with Kaito they both get 4.5/10 because the sheer disbelief at the other motivates them to be just a little bit better (but Not Much).
Vagastrom
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh if I saw a pool with these guys as the lifeguards I. Would feel an Emotion. Which one? Certainly An Emotion.
Alan Mido
No. Well. Yes? But mostly no. Good news is he can definitely save you if you drown. Bad news is he's terrifying, for one, and always looks mad at you, for two, and if you ask him for a bandaid he'll glare at you on accident and too many kids have cried when he's on shift so he's not. Working as a lifeguard for long. Sorry king. Maybe next time. 2/10
Leo Kurosagi
He's on his phone and I am personally going to fire him. If a kid drowns on his watch he blames the parent, and lowkey he's probably right, which makes it worse. I think if he had a reason to do his best he would and he would do great, but until then, we will all drown in the pool on his watch Together. 1/10
Shohei Haizono
He tries. He's fine at it, too, and the kids like him well enough, and he does a well enough job. Genuinely probably the best in Vagastrom. However, when Leo is fired (or quits) Sho also bounces, mostly because he finds it boring and he already has to bathe Enough. 7/10
Jabberwock
I already worked with a Ren before and it was horrible. Unfortunately, I am a Haru. I haven't worked with a Towa yet, but if I do, I'll probably burst into tears. However. ?
Haru Sagara
Have you. Do you. Well first of all no he's not getting 10/10 so don't expect that. I only mostly play favouritism. Reasons he would be good is that he's pretty diligent and would respond quickly and appropriately. He would be a great supervisor. Reasons he would be bad is that he would probably be concerned abt his arm (and would waffle abt whether to keep it on or not, which would make him hesitate methinks). and two. If he is not in jumping distance of the water he is Sprinting and using his stigma and catching a rock or whatever and eating Turbo Shit and now your supervisor needs a lifeguard and it is Bad All Around. awesome. 7/10
Towa Otonashi
good news. 8/10 if he likes you. Bad news. 0/10 if he doesn't. Someone who was rude to him starts drowning and hes like damn not my problem. someone annoys him when haru is down for the count and he electrocutes the Whole Pool. he does not work. the pool frequently has bad weather. he sees MC and leaves his stand. Awesome. Worlds Worst Pool. 1/10 bc if he likes you he'll save you
Ren Shiranami
TEN SECONDS TO IDENTIFY 20 SECONDS TO TAKE ACTION LETS GO 30 SECOND STANDARD KING!!!!!!! However. He . HESITATES. His ass is like I have 20 seconds uhhhhh fuck uhhh shit uhhhh fuck. uhh. and then its drowning situation and then its unconscious and Haru intervenes and hes like this fucking sucks . BUT! He'd be good at CPR. He can do it. My man can work an AED. I know in my heart and soul he's a lil fisherman boy who knows whats up. 8/10 bc I rated Tohma too low if I give Ren 9/10.
Sinostra
goodbye cruel world. ill miss you when im underwater. and dead.
Taiga Hoshibami
I need us all to take a second and just think about this. Can we all do that. All hold hands and try to imagine Taiga Hoshibami as a lifeguard. Can we. BECAUSE I CANNOT FATHOM IT. IT IS FUNDAMENTALLY WRONG. WHY IS HE THERE? THATS NOT THE RIGHT ENVIRONMENT FOR HIM. PLEASE GET HIM OUT OF THERE????? To be honest. He probably wouldn't show up anyway. Sorry buddy. 0/10
Romeo Scorpius Lucci
I can't. He has a big sunhat and all the sun protection and he has an umbrella and a misting fan and sunglasses and he looks downright absolutely fucking miserable. Tells kids not to run and they ignore him and they eat shit and he's like IFTYS and the parents are like can you stop speaking letters at us and help our child. Please. And he quits on the spot. 3/10 he's too pretty to fail
Ritsu Shinjo
He has read every manual front to cover he is so prepared in an accident he's got this shit DOWN. In theory. Can he swim? Unknown. You ask him. He does not answer. Ren sees him from across the pool and they share a Look. Ritsu quietly pulls you aside. He can't. You sigh and put a frowny face next to his employee progress report. 1/10
Hotarubi
Subaru Kagami
He would be so nervous but I honestly think he'd be fine. Like genuinely just fine. He would probably be nervous every day and it'd shave years off his life as he imagines everything that could possibly ever go wrong even a little. It truly haunts him every waking moment and it feels sort of like he's dying? And Haku listens and is like hey. its. hey subaru? It's okay to quit, and Subaru is like. IT IS? And then. he doesn't quit. 5/10 book a spa vacation
Haku Kusanagi
He's a sleeper agent lifeguard. He's like so stereotypical good lifeguard he's almost Bad? LIKE . FOR ALL INTENTS AND PURPOSES HE'S DEFINITELY A GOOD LIFEGUARD. CERTIFIED GRADE A. BUT HE'S LIKE. ITS JUST OFF. IT SCARES YOU. He has an energy on stand that you can't quite place. MC looks at him and then looks up and realises he is on hour nine of Zenji Kotodama's greatest hits and that energy is On His Last Legs. and she's like ohhh okay. Yeah okay. 8/10
Zenji Kotodama
The retail post was predicated on the idea that Zenji is not a ghost because that was funnier than ghost Zenji. This post is way funnier if he's a ghost. Your ass is NOT getting saved today buddy. You see the world go dark and a hand reaches out to you and its Zenji and you're like ohhh I'm saved. No. ghost. good luck. goodbye. He'll sing a song as you go 1/10 (For real though, 4/10 because he helps keep ppl calm and also is like dont worry my dears. zenji kotodama will keep the beat going for CPR.)
Obscuary
Obscuary is actually a 0/10 dorm . Lyca 'Tries so Hard' Colt a dn Rui 'kills you' Mizuki are an outlier and should not have been counted
Edward Hart
I cannot in good faith possibly give him more than like 3 points guys. Truly I cannot. I cannot fathom who would let him be a lifeguard. Probably the same ppl who let Taiga be one. Bad people. bad people who should feel bad because WHAT IS HE DOING THEEERREEEEE!!!!! I GUESS. HE COULD GIVE ADVICE? I GUESS? 1/10
Rui Mizuki
so. um. so. SO BASICALLY? IF HE DOESNT HAVE TO DO A RESCUE ITS FINE? I THINK? PROBABLY? BUT LIKE. OTHERWISE......... i cant. picturing rui trying to do a rescue without touching the person. TEARS IN MY EYES. PLEASE. WHO LET HIM DO THIS. PLEASE HELP HIM? PLEASE? HEY GUYS? TEAM? HEY GANG? -5/10 PLEASSE DONT KILL THEM MORE THAN THEY ALREADY ARE.
Lyca Colt
He's so good. Chat you gotta believ e me. There's nothing better than a guard who is rlly willing to do their best even if they're a little confused. HE'S GOT THE SPIRIT!!!!! Lowkey he'd actually be kinda bad bc the smells would overwhelm him and the sounds and he'd prbably get too mad at the kids and yell and call them stupid and make them cry but he's also tryign so hard. You can't fault him. AND he would be good in a rescue situation for sure. Trust me. Trust me. I'd trust him with my life. Maybe not in CPR. But surely the rest 7/10 but 10/10 in my hearrt
Mortkranken
Ohhhhhh no ignore Sinostra's note. No yeah. No we've done it. Mortkranken once again wins Worst At This Job. Yup. Yep. No yeah. Yep.
Yuri Isami
Imagine Yuri in a pool. That's it. NO BUT FOR REAL? HE'S LIKE JIRO. SAVE THEM. And Jiro is like I can't swim though. But okay. And Yuri is like JIRO DON'T. and then they stare at the water and you drown and die and then Yuri is like OKAY. NOW . IS MY TIME. he's like. Do you see the vision. He can't help you Not Drown. But by god. You are in the best hands when someoen else gets you out of the water. He sure does guard your life. Just not. IN THE WATER. 2/10 BECOME A PARAMEDIC INSTEAD.
Jiro Kirisaki
Hey if you need a lifeguard for your lifeguard that's a bad lifeguard -10/10 jiro please stop drowning on the job and making the others save you its really inflating the incident report economy and making everyone's lives worse and zenji is crying so now we can't even giv you cpr to baby shark anymore thanks buddy

im 19 now, which is crazy, so this is me word vomiting my thoughts because its really hard for me to believe i made it this far and im really proud of myself.
in january of 2024, my mom fled our home state of ohio and moved us down to texas. i was forced to drop out of highschool at age 17, only 6 months away from graduating. i had to cut off all of my friends, all of my support system, and go "off grid" as she put it. i wasnt allowed to leave the house without explicit instruction, but that wasnt really new to me.
in february, the cops found us and took my little brother out of my mom's custody. she was in a custody battle for him, and moving out of state violated the court orders. so it was just me, and i wasnt being forced to hide anymore since our location was known. so i got a job.
in april of 2024, i ran away. nearly exactly 1 month before my 18th birthday. i had nowhere to go, it was a panic decision, and i did something that could have gone very wrong but thankfully didnt. i hid in an empty housing plot over a hill, literally on the water, and once it got dark and i was sure the cops had given up searching for the night, i walked 3 hours to my coworker's house. no phone, no plan, just hoped the address i had seen once was accurate and that id be able to find it.
i found his house, and he let me stay with him until my 18th birthday, when i was legally an adult and could move into a homeless shelter. i turned 18 in his house, quietly and with no fanfare, staring at the clock and waiting for the fear of being found to lift off my shoulders. 2 days later, i moved into a homeless shelter.
i spent the next few months in the shelter, bargaining with my mom to get some of my belongings back, and working full time in fast food making $9.25 an hour to try and keep myself alive. i qualified for food stamps, but they got shut off and i couldnt figure out how to turn them back on. i qualified for reduced housing, but i still couldnt afford the rent and utilities in the area. i got lucky though. the coworker id stayed with while waiting to turn 18, who is now one of my best friends, offered to have me move in with him when my time at the shelter ran out.
i spent 6 months living with him, cutting off my mom in september. ive been no contact with her ever since. i job hopped a bit, nearly starved a few times, and lived on a cot in the corner of a room already occupied by someone else. i was struggling constantly- with money, with my mental health, with the complete unknown that was my future. but i was alive, and i was away from my mom, so i considered it a net positive and pushed forward, trying not to kill myself or get jumped in the street.
then, this past february, i got more in touch with my aunt. id never really known her, my mom banned her from my life when i was little, and we didnt reconnect until 2024 over facebook. we started talking, and i started venting about my living situation and my financials and how scary it was. and... she offered to let me move in with her. in michigan, in a nice clean house, in a safe area, where minimum wage was nearly 5 dollars higher than what i made. so i took her up on the offer, and she paid for my flight.
now, ive started to settle into life with my aunt. my emotions have been all over the place, as i try to unlearn trauma responses and figure out who i wanna be and what i wanna do. for the first time in my life, not only am i free, but im safe. i dont go hungry, i dont go cold, and im always gonna have a safe place to stay as long as my aunt is alive. it was strange at first, and still is, that i can simply exist and follow my passions with no risk of the rug being pulled from under me, no risk of ending up homeless again or hurt if i dont keep constant vigilance. its calm, its peaceful. its so fucking weird.
and now here i am, typing this, as i turn 19 in a comfortable bedroom that i have to myself, having just eaten food i know will never be scarce, and i dont feel afraid anymore. for the first time in my life, theres no crushing weight on my shoulders of needing to survive. theres no walking on eggshells to avoid my mom's temperment. im safe, and its starting to sink in.
i never thought i would make it this far. i didnt expect to turn 18 at all, especially after my mom got us stranded in texas and my support system no longer existed. i had nobody to rely on. no plan. and i still turned 18. i still stayed alive, somehow. through all the challenges and all the rock bottoms i hit in the past year, i still stayed alive. and now? im safe. not for a day, not for an hour, but forever. i will never be in the position i was last year ever again, and that truth is finally starting to hit me. and im turning 19. im gonna turn 20 eventually, then 25, 30, 40, ect. im gonna keep living, and i dont doubt that anymore.
i dont see the future as inevitably nonexistent anymore. i see it as tangible. i see it as real. i see myself in it. and thats... new. but im happy, im at peace, and im so excited for what the next few years are gonna bring.
so, happy birthday to me. and here's to many more. i made it. im proud of myself. im so happy.

In this discduo timeline pastebin i read, you can see tommy did care about dream for a very long time even while his friends were trying to convince him that dream was bad, he continued to praise dream and had plans to meet him irl. It wasnt until june july 2023 when tommy started believing the lies his friends and fans kept telling him and thays when he banned the words dream and discduo in his chat and said that he didnt wanna go all the way to florida. I think he genuinly thinks dream wronged him based on his body language in the podcast and how he dissocoates, like tommy now percieves all his past positive interactions with dream as a negative and jack, harry, and tommys fanbase fed into that, but he also is lying about dream with other things. And i mean he could be faking that body language to garner sympathy Im not entirely sure. Im just looking at the nuance here. He knows dream or at least he did. He used to check up on him all the time and he knew how bad dreams mental health was, but he still lies and claims dreams apathetic and thinks dream cant take accountability and thinks dream doesnt care about him when dream has always cared. I can send you that pastebin if u want, u can see the decline in where tommy starts turning against dream its aroundn the time where he and harry got closer. But before that, he saw dream as this brilliant helpful guy and referred to him as a friend, even in the past referred to him as closer than a brother. He cared for dream at some point for a long time, then ditched him and betrayed him. Also dream refers to tommy as emotional, and i can see how someone so sensitive can interpret a long dm as an attack, and apparently he did explain his issue to dream before but it never got resolved or tommys lying about that too. I dont doubt that he is doing a lot of this to get attention, but i do think some feelings could be genuine despite it logically not adding up. I can see how someone could interpret dreams dms in a stressful way. But the fact tommy even gave a shit about dream in the past to begin with makes this worse, because the way i see it, if someone close to me turned on me i would be a lot more hurt by that than if someone i was only colleagues with turned on me.
Was gonna chrck back on their past interactions to see if i can spot anything shady on tommys part if yk what i mean even if this is gonna make me sad. One of my co workers offered to do a watchparty💀
(I should preface this by saying I have not yet watched the podcast, because at the moment I’m little too triggered to even give a shit about what Tommy has to say to be honest. I don’t really see what defense or reasoning you could possibly have for calling anyone, nonetheless your past friend a “proper movie villain” while accusing him of things that aren’t true, knowing the consequences. I mean I just don’t think people have really let that fact truly sink he, Tommy publicly compared Dream to Darth Vader, Bane, The Joker, Voldemort…etc mass murderers. Just think about that for a second. That’s not okay. People are out there comparing him to Hitler and talking about brutal ways to kill him, a go fund me to kill Dream has started. I don’t think there is a damn thing Tommy can say Dream did to excuse that shit, he will get no sympathy from me. Even if Dream physically abused him, which ain’t true since they’ve never met, Dream still shouldn’t be compared to freaking Hannibal.)
Even so, as I have said in some of my past posts on the matter, I do think perhaps Tommy was hurt by something that happened with Dream in the past and in retrospect realized perhaps things weren’t as good as he thought. Which happens, sometimes we look back on things and are like - hey wait a minute that wasn’t okay and that hurt. But that doesn’t make that person a shit person.
The example I believe I previously talked about was my first kiss, but to give another example, a guy I was good friends with freshman year of college was very handsy and I didn’t really realize in the moment how I felt about it or that he was pushing boundaries he shouldn’t. At first I didn’t think much of it. I was naive and autistic and didn’t really know better, and he was too. He didn’t have sisters, hell he thought woman were always making milk lol. In other words, we were both dumb. And looking back he did a lot of things that really were not okay, but once I came to realize and set boundaries he respected them. In fact, we are still kinda friends today, we’re even roomates for a bit after I graduate back in 2023. So, suffice to say, sometimes people can do shitty things or even things that you realize later were not okay, or even things that traumatize you, but that doesn’t make that person shitty. Especially if you didn’t call it out in the moment. This is what I mean by giving Dream the benefit of the doubt, sure I could perceive my friend as manipulative and taking advantage of naivety or whatever, or I recognize that he really just doesn’t know better. Now when you tell someone to stop and then they continue (depending on what it is because ya know old habits die hard or like my adhd is gonna try my hardest but I will inevitably skews up pronouns - just like I screw up everyone’s pronouns) now you’ve entered into the malicious and intentional area.
Bringing it back to Dream, Tommy was upset and told him to stop texting his mother, so Dream apologized to both and stopped. It becomes harassment and malicious if Dream continued over and over to do it, but he didn’t. This is why Dream is frustrated because he doesn’t know what behavior is upsetting people, and in his heart that’s not what he wants to do, but if people don’t tell him how is he meant to improve. At the end of the day, he doesn’t want to offend anyone or hurt someone, that doesn’t mean he hasn’t done so though as these things happen, nobody is perfect.
So I think maybe Tommy was hurt, maybe it was in retrospect looking back, maybe it was friends pointing things out and were like - hey that’s fucked up that happened. Maybe some of that hurt is genuine. And maybe you could make the case that that hurt has spurred him to take revenge and ruin Dream in whatever way it takes. So the jokes and lies are just part of his lashing out because he feels wronged.
However, there is also a case to be made that given Tommy’s history as pointed out by Dream with Logan Paul, maybe it was all an act. Maybe he was using Dream from the start and Dream being the naive, good hearted, autistic guy made an easy target. Maybe he only pretended to be good friends, sure Dream doesn’t have anything to gain from being Tommy’s friend but that doesn’t go both ways. Tommy has a lot to gain from being Dream’s friend, but as the tides turned he had a lot to lose by being Dream’s friend and it was easier to switch sides not that there was no incentive, as Dream pointed out as the USMP fell through so did Tommy switch sides. Once he couldn’t gain clout for being on Dream’s side but being against Dream, he switches. Because a lot of his audience has always been against Dream, struggling to tell the difference between character and person and as is human nature, instinctively hating an autistic person. That has been the case for ages, Tommy could have given into his audience for ages but even during the allegations height he still did that dsmp finale and posted that picture on Twitter (which he got a lot of hate for)…
All I’m saying, is even the people who have wronged me, even the person who pushed me to almost kill myself, I wouldn’t wish death or harassment upon them. I wouldn’t do the shit Tommy has pulled, because there was a time when we were friends. There were times when they were good to me. And maybe that makes me an exception to the rule, that people would be so cruel to the people they once called friends, but I couldn’t and that’s what makes me question Tommy’s sincerity and capacity for empathy…
Though perhaps both can be true.

A happy and crazy black family au
where despite their faults love eachother and love to joke around.
They love that remus is a wearwolf.
Euphemia and walburga have tea and go shopping at least 5 times a month, they became friends after prongsfoot.
None of them are hetero.
They basically adopted peter, barty, evan, and pandora bc their home lives suck.
They have tons of bets going around, peter keeps track of them all.
They blend their japanese and indian cultures really well and always try to celebrate together.
When orion finds out about the lupins locking remus up in chains and their general attitude towards his lycanthropy he chews them out to hell and declares that remus is spending all full moons with them, they own a large forest covered in wards so the boys can play safley.
When lily is introduced she feels insecure due to her sister's taunts and her calling lily a wh*re, but they all like her immediately and think shes good for the boys.
Fleamont and Walburga are so bad at cooking that their completely banned from stepping into the kitchen, they don't even have to touch anything for something to go wrong.
Sirius inherited walbugas temper but regulus inherited orions pettiness.
The Blacks have no serious qualms against murder and the potters are loyal to a fault.
The day bellatrix came home after rita betrayed her for a job in the daily prophet to tells lies about the black family and then proceed to break up with her after, bella was in tears and begged the family to forgive her, that day the entire black family swore to make skeeter pay in ways she couldnt even imagine.
The blacks belive in power over blood tourjus pur to them means that their power is always pure and strong thats why they encourage the kids to be as crazy as they want as long as they also act in a way befitting their status and prestige.
The myth about no one being able to name their child after a star/constalation if their not a black comes from people trying to in the early 1900s as a sign of prestige put sadly all these children died befor the age of 3, it actually wasn't because of the blacks and was just a sicknes going around that was particularly harmful to children, but the stigma stayed and none of the blacks had any reason to dispel the rumors.
When ted and andromeda got together the family was weary because he was both a muggleborn and a british wizard so the were concerned he would insult/disrespect them or that he just wasnt worthy of her in general but after 2 months of stalking, scrutiizing and trying to scare him off they realized that despite his heritage he was still an ambitious person who wasnt scared of cutting down people who purposely get in his way and was also very good at talking around and subtlety manipulating people wile also being incredibly kind and also having a strong sense of family loyalty befitting a spouse of The Most Noble and Most Ancient House of Black.
Peter Reguls and Orion spend the most time in the library learning, studying and debating over ancient magics and civilizations, they were onced locked in there without food or water for 2 and a half days and didn't even notice.
Remus likes going in there from time to time but most of the things they talk about confuse him too much so he mostry spends his time reading in the garden while pandora and evan take care of it. Pandora can also study and debate with them but she prefers being in the sun.
Bellatrix and barty get along like a house on fire and when sirius get involved all hell brakes loose.
pandora and peter like to talk about bugs together and sometimes fleamont gets them sample to study.
While no one can see the things pandora sees, ephie is skilled at sensing and seeing magic for short periods of time due to her magic sensitivity, and when pandora is feeling frustrated at the fact no one can see the things she does ephie is always ready to talk her through it. Orion is also good for her during these episodes because of his calm demendor soothing voice, and his relaxing and steady magic

You dont answer dms, period. Revise your bio.
yes i do? i'm confused as to how you came to this conclusion. there are many people that could tell you that i've talked to them, even had long conversations with them. i cannot get back to every single message i get, or maybe i could but it would take a lot of time & energy. ive said before that i dont reply to "hey" or "hi" so if thats your message, dont expect a reply lol. i also dont even see all of my messages, i had a mutual of mine (who i was also mutuals with on my last account that got banned) message me a few weeks ago and i hadnt even seen it. i would have never left him hanging like that, but that goes to show that i dont see all of my messages. i appreciate the messages i get & i do enjoy talking to people sometimes, but i cant be available 24/7 to people trying to talk to me. replying to tumblr dms is not my job, im not obligated to do so & the entitlment always blows my mind. lately ive been esoecially bad at getting back to people. i have an autoimmune disease & it drains me. im on daily medication for it, but it only does so much. my social battery is lower than most and that extends to messaging. ive had a lot going on recently, i went on two out of state trips and in between those trips (and before and after) i was working 7 days a week where i would have to get up early in the morning with no days off. it took SO much out of me & i wasnt even really on tumblr. most days i dont have enough energy to even reply to my friends. thats why i pick and choose the dms i reply to, i answer the ones that interest me (& im sure there are ones that would interest me that ive just never seen, thats why i encourage people to try multiple times)
as for my bio. i'm not sure why it bothers people? it simply states that i wont reply to dms from people who arent following me, & thats true. i DONT reply to people who arent following me, so what's the problem? the most confusing part of that is that the people who usually have a problem with my bio ARE following me. so whats the problem? its not about you. i dont need to revise it because its true

hello everyone i have spent roughly the past three weeks making all of my D&D/pathfinder blorbos in hero forge and i now present them to u
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
in order: wyrgriss (dragonborn fighter), yalann highever (half-elf bard), brígh o'rinn (human rogue), emil armati (human gunslinger/fighter), lissa (elf druid), amalia (air genasi gunslinger), maeve (scourge aasimar paladin)
babbling about them under the cut beep boop
Tumblr media
wyrgriss
babby's first D&D character
more commonly called 'thresh' or 'wyr' because the way his name is pronounced is rough on non-reptilian vocal chords
he wasnt originally a dragonborn. just an alien lizard whose species name escapes me for a sci-fi homebrew campaign.
didn't have horns either, but hero forge's customization for non-humanoids is abysmal so he's got them now.
huge, hulking, not terribly friendly, follows the grog strongjaw school of problem solving.
the first ability check roll i ever did in D&D involved me attempting to move a massive alien worm out of the way of a doorway the party needed to get through. we're talking like 20 feet long, hundreds of pounds massive.
thresh had a base strength of 17. the ability check was 16 with disadvantage since the party just walked out of a nasty ship wreck. i rolled a 23.
thresh proceeded to send the 20 foot long hundreds-of-pounds worm flying with a light shove. my DM was both infuriated and impressed that the intentionally placed obstacle meant to steer the party elsewhere was defeated by the first roll of the campaign.
Tumblr media
yalann highever
created solely for a one-shot campaign and somehow managed to become one of my favorites
they/them af
follows the bard's school of glamour
visual inspiration was yuj from final fantasy 13
semi-possessed. i mean like they are very definitely possessed but the line is pretty blurry because they and the fey trickster god that possessed them are literally so well-aligned behavior and motivation-wise that the two are essentially one entity at this point and the difference is moot.
animal motif is foxes. when they aren't sowing subtle chaos and playing Traditional Bard (aka spy) they can probably be found causing mischief transformed as a common red fox.
besties with @miitgaanar's perpetually-tormented-by-the-dungeon-master player character
acts as a perpetual thorn in the side to said dungeon master in turn
often breaks the fourth wall. delights in breaking the fourth wall (again: feywild trickster god). never actually abuses their ability to break the fourth wall purely because their genre-savvy commentary and subtle digs (as well as the knowledge that they probably could but still plays along anyway) piss the dungeon master off to no end. and also yalann loves the confusion they cause being so offbeat.
Tumblr media
brígh o'rinn
it's pronounced bree
she actually has two versions
original version: sci-fi homebrew setting. basically more machine than human by the present day due to extensive cybernetic enhancement. fantasy/current version: basically the same, minus the sci-fi.
princess of a kingdom that worships the stars/celestial bodies. headstrong. meets a charming con-man on a day she sneaks out of the palace as a flighty teenager and learns the tricks of the rogue-ish trade from him. loves hearing his stories.
winds up running away from the kingdom when she finds out her parents had him run out of town and banned from returning.
arcane trickster
in her late 20s
very soft-spoken with a nasty mean streak when provoked. tries to diplomacy-talk her way out of nasty situations before bringing out the knives.
really likes knives
due to her background and her kingdom's advanced astronomy knowledge, she's stellar at navigating by stars (pun intended)
Tumblr media
emil armati
aforementioned charming con-man
way of the drifter gunslinger (with a side spec in swashbuckler/fighter, game version dependent)
capable of bullshitting his way out of most situations and often does just that
failed spectacularly in bullshitting his way out of the situation that cost him his right hand.
tinkerer, something of an engineering savant, not terribly interested in using his intellectual and mechanical talents for the betterment of society
is somewhere in his mid-to-late 30s
his prized possession is a spherical artifact that is somehow both impossibly advanced and inexplicably ancient. he swiped it off a cult (coincidentally based in his rogue princess's home kingdom) that now wants it back and wants him dead.
in his defense it's very pretty and also probably most likely better off in his hands.
it's a running joke between him and brígh that he's a horrid influence considering he'd been teaching her to be a scoundrel for the better part of a decade since meeting her--meanwhile she's leagues more vicious than him.
faceclaim (as well as visual and personality inspiration) is michiel huisman as daario naharis.
Tumblr media
lissa
have not gotten the chance to actually play her. she's a concept after i realized i really want to play a druid at some point.
elf druid, circle of the moon
carries a sickle but 99% of the time prefers to default on her clawed gauntlets or outright claws in beast shape
she is mildly (read as: a lot) feral and unsocialized, having spent most of her life raised in the wilds among beasts instead of people
viciously protective of the woods she grew up in and all the creatures that also call it home. viciously protective of wildlife and nature in general.
Tumblr media
amalia "mal" revna
mal. bad. in the latin.
bounty hunter
way of the spellshot gunslinger
quiet, calm, and warm-hearted. acts like everyone's big sister.
makes for a terrifying enemy because you never know you're on her bad side until she outright shoots you.
didn't get much of an opportunity to play as her and haven't had much of an opportunity/reason to flesh her out further
faceclaim: gina torres.
Tumblr media
maeve
another one-shot character
oath of vengeance paladin
had been sworn into service to a king who ordered her to do something unthinkably cruel--who then had someone else do it anyway when she refused
she paid the king back his cruelty but ever since then she's been almost single-minded in her focus on stopping injustice by any means necessary

Tension. (part 2)
Tumblr media
⁎ warnings: romantic slasher ? manipulation, mentions of murder, mentions of death, obsession, female!reader.
⁎ summary: you were fell for him. hard. the murders started, and you knew it was him. billy lured you into his dark and twisted intentions. it was so wrong. but it doesn't feel wrong... there was something stopping you. or someone.
⁎ author note: hi guysss ! sorry, i got shadowbanned yesterday TT thats why the first part wasnt visible in the tags :(. but tumblr lifted the ban so im backkkk. sorry this is even longer than the last one :p. THANK YOU FOR 10 NOTES AND 3 FOLLOWERS ! :D enjoy !
Tumblr media
You barely made it to your room before collapsing onto your bed, the weight of the night pressing down on you. The ghostface costume was still crumpled in the corner, staring back at you like it knew everything you were thinking.
Billy had dropped you off not too long ago, that gentle look in his eyes still burning in your mind. The way he talked, the thing he said about love and Sidney ?—it stuck with you. You couldn’t shake it. Part of you wondered what he was really thinking, and why you kept falling deeper into this mess.
Your housephone rang, breaking the silence. You grabbed it, half-expecting it to be Tatum or Sidney, but your heart skipped a beat when you saw Billy's number flash across the screen.
''Meet me behind Stu’s place.'' his voice came through low and serious. “We need to talk.”
Your stomach flipped. Talk ? About what ? You knew better than to ask over the phone. Whatever it was, it wasn’t going to be simple. But you couldn’t ignore it either.
You arrived at the back of Stu's house, bringing your knife and mask just in case. The cool night air whispered through the trees, carrying distant sounds of laughter from the party. You saw him waiting in his ghostface costume, his mask off. He looked so devourable, as always. He noticed you walking up to him and grabbed your hand, softly to not hurt you, pulling you towards him. ''What's going on ?'' you whispered, making sure no one heard that you were sneaking around with Billy. ''Tatum and Stu are the next victims, alright ? You don't have to lift a finger. Just go and wait with Sidney for me.'' he answered.
Wait, so soon ? You thought you'd maybe get to hangout with Stu and Tatum more... You've only known them for about a few weeks but you already got attached. Stu's awful humor and Tatum's caring personality. You couldn't lie, you were going to miss it. Your gaze dropped to the ground, the weight of guilt pressing on your shoulders. You felt... guilty.
Billy noticed the guilty expression in your face. He frowned, tilting his head. ''What ? You feel bad ?'' he asked, his expression changing into a cold one. ''I thought we were in this together.'' he murmured. ''You agreed yourself, we would stick together no matter what.'' Billy added, feeling somehow betrayed. ''W-We are, it's just… they haven't really done anything to me you know ? They have been good friends.'' you said, feigning guilt. He stayed quiet for a few seconds before putting his hand on your shoulder. You look at his hand touching your shoulder. You feel his warmth rushing through your skin, feeling the way his hand grazed your shoulder.
You gulp softly before looking at him again, a slight flush on your cheeks. ''Is that why you killed Casey ? Steve ? The principal ? They haven't done anything to you right ? So just try to forget about them, you got me.'' he said, his tone genuine, but also laced with . But you couldn't help it. You loved him too much to refuse anything he asked you to do. You nodded, locking eyes with him for a short moment before both snapping out of it. Billy puts on his ghostface mask and runs to the garage.
Tumblr media
You walk inside and push past the others to see Sidney sitting on the couch alone, zoned out and thinking to herself. You sit beside her and give her a smile, which was fake. ''Everything alright Sid ?'' you asked her just to be nice. She looked at you and smiled back. ''I have a feeling you and my boyfriend have something going on.'' she wanted to say. But she didn't like drama, so she shrugged it off, shaking her head. ''I'm okay, I'm just not fond of parties haha.'' she chuckled softly. You nodded and looked away before Sidney looked around. ''Uhmm, have you seen Billy ? or Tatum and Stu ? I cant really spot them.'' she asked you, looking just a little skeptical. ''Huh ? No, I havent seen them. Maybe they left together.'' you answered, looking as innocent as possible. Even though you were the complete opposite of that.
After a while, the party died down and people were leaving. Tatum, Stu and Billy were still nowhere to be found. And Sidney was starting to look concerned. Where could they be ? ''BOO !'' you both turned around quickly to see Billy standing behind you guys with a cheeky smirk. ''Oh, Billy, where were you ?'' Sidney chuckled as they kissed eachother hello. You rolled your eyes discreetly before smiling at Billy. Billy gave you a nod with his head as a greeting, and as a gesture. Tatum and Stu are dead.
''Hey, I kinda need to talk to you Sid. Privately.'' Billy said. Sidney’s eyes lingered on me for a moment too long, her smile faltering as if she didn’t quite know what Billy was planning. Sidney reluctantly agreed before they both went upstairs together, closing the door to the bedroom. You could feel your blood boil. What were they doing ? Why did Billy wanna be alone with HER ?! You were so close to just punching a whole in the wall. Why did he choose Sidney instead of you ? He clearly likes you more then why wont he just ask you out already ?! So many emotional questions were going through your mind you just wanted to know WHY ? You couldn't help but tear up. This couldn't be healthy. You were OBSESSED with him. About 5 minutes passed, and you heard a scream upstairs. Could it really be...?
To Be Continued...

i totally get the pain struggle. i still battle with my carpal tunnel, and the time that i draw has definitely gone down....i found i didnt really get true relief until i was like. banned from using my hands outside of work and having help with most things at home. literally just. sitting and doing nothing but heat therapy and gentle stretches. slept in wrist braces.
but! after the rest period, it did eventually get easier to handle, and once i found a good pace to manage myself at, ive been drawing again...i dont wanna preach a bunch of tips you might have already heard, but if youd like some id be happy to shoot some resources your way.
i really hope your pain eases for you soon. its a pain in the ass not being able to do the things you enjoy from something that seems so small...like ridiculous in proportion to how it effects your life when it wasnt a problem before....
wishing nothin but goodness for your future 🫂
tips wouldn’t hurt. i appreciate it. my main issue isn’t so much knowledge of tips as it is actually operationalising any of it long term. i have a bad combo of apathy/executive dysfunction/time blindness/lack of object constancy that can be debilitating at worst. hence why i rlly want legit medical help/direction.
4 clarity on my situation i’m hyper mobile & have had wrist/hand problems most my life. i’ve dealt w rsi & carpal tunnel, theoretically, but my early life was full of medical neglect & so no diagnosis there. my current main problems r regarding the ulnar nerve & cubital tunnel. braces r the one thing i manage consistently. stretches i *try*to keep on top of. i haven’t tried heat pads for my wrist problems but probably should’ve at some point
i’ll take whatever u got, thanks.

Since everyone's been showing off their Hello Puppets! OCs lately, I might aswell show mine!
Tumblr media
"Nick's friendly feline! Angel is a sassy but curious cat, mostly seen in Nick's arts studio. Ironically she's bestfriends with Riley's good boy, Rosco."
In the show:
She was a stray kitten Nick found in an alleyway near his local supermarket, he ended up adopting the feline when she suddenly climbed onto his leg and wouldnt let go.
Outside of the show:
She was one of Jake's 2 pet cats, one day he brought them to work after a vet visit because he couldnt find a cat sitter(and also because Owen was very strict with the work schedule). Somehow she escaped her carrier and endep up walking onto the set, while they were filming! Luckily, Jake was able to improvise the whole scene, saving the crew alot of time. The feline even played along, acting as if she was always planned to be there.
Owen was not happy with the sudden intervention, but after hearing some feedback from the fans, he decided to let the incident slide and eventually added Angel to the show.
Relationship with the Handeemen(Show counterparts):
- Rosco: As said before, she is best friends with the good boi! They're always seen playing or even cuddling with eachother.
The writing team thought it would be pretty ironic for the main cat and dog of the show to not act like cats and dogs(its also so they contrast their owners), another reason was because she was the only cat who wasnt afraid of the Rosco suit, infact, she was fond of it.
- Nick: She is very fond of him(considering he adopted her and all), however she can get abit annoyed at his dramaticness(on some episodes she's his meow of reason).
Nick sees her as his sassy daughter, he likes to dress her up and put her on mini fashion shows(Angel doesnt mind, as long as she gets a treat later). He also taught her how to paw paint ever since she had showned an interest in it(with pet safe paint of course).
- Riley: She's pretty neutral with the scientist, tho she does dislike the loud fights she and Nick would cause. Sometimes, both her and Rosco would try to break them up, and in some cases, they would succeed(only for them to start arguing again a few minutes later).
The feeling is mostly mutual, with Riley having a slight dislike towards the feline. The reason being how Angel(like every other cat), would purposely knock over random stuff off of high places, which annoys the scientist greatly.
This behavior led to a small(and thankfully harmless) explosion to happen, which also led to the feline getting banned from the Ruckus Lab™
- Daisy: While she can get abit uncomfortable with the baker's constant smothering, she enjoys spending time with her(mostly because she knows Daisy wont hesitate to give her free treats).
Daisy absolutely adores Angel and would often make homemade treats for her(the feline reminds her alot of an old family cat Daisy used to have when she was still living in the country side), however she does wish that Angel would shed less she would also knit sweaters for her and help make cat clothes for Nick's mini fashion show.
- Mortimer: Angel is pretty friendly with the old man, she's usually seen sitting on his lap while he's drinking tea or reading a book(sometimes he'll even read one to her).
Its the same with Mortimer, he considers the feline as a great practice audience for his magic shows and storytelling.
More Info about her:
- The B stands for Beatrice(which was named after Nick's dead mother).
- Her real name is actually Cookie(Owen thought it wasn't a name Nick would pick, so he changed it to Angel), her brother's name was Cream(he was a a turkish van cat with heterochromia).
- Sometimes her brother would make a cameo in the show as a backrgound character, tho they couldnt make him Nick's second cat. Mostly because, unlike his sister, Cream was terrified of the puppets(especially Mortimer).
Feel free to ask some questions about her!

this song gives me jason vibes lowkey
Tumblr media
dude
this IS jason vibes thank you (apparently id heard this song before but never knew the title or anything? so double thanks bc i like it a lot)
theres so much here that screams jason to me i fear this may turn into a long post 😔
"all the things you told me where they meaningless? i needed to know" <- jason and his thoughts abt like. his place in bruce's life yknow? especially with the whole good soldier thing i think. just wanting to know if he was cared about, if that stuff was real, or if it meant nothing and he really was just another soldier in batman's mission.
"told you i ain't mad, so let's stop before we crash / cause i don't wanna run anymore" <- DUDE this is so utrh coded specifically what do you mean!!! it's like his whole speech there!! nd the whole confrontation!!!! & that confrontation does signal the end of jason's running!! bc he's back in gotham and he's finally at the big finish of his plan!! this line drives me insane bc i can see it so clearly in like an edit or something. bc it works so well to me.
"cause you know i wear my heart on my sleeve" <- THIS ONE IS REAL TO ME AND REAL IF U UNDERSTAND JASON AS A CHARACTER AT ALL I SWEAR! LISTEN! YES HES CLOSED OFF AND SHIT BUT HE DOES! SHOW HOW HURT HE IS AND HOW ANGRY AND THIS JUST MAKES SENSE TO ME BC JASON IS SUCH AN EMOTIONAL PERSON N NOT EVERYONE SEES THAT! HE FEELS THINGS SO BIG! ND HES NOT ALWAYS AS GOOD AT HIDING IT AS HE THINKS! NOT EVEN RELATED REALLY BUT IT REMINDS ME THAT JASON IS AN ANGRY CRIER!!! IVE GOT SO MANY THOUGHTS I CANT PUT INTO WORDS ABT JASON TODD AND EMOTIONS!
"you'd be praying on my downfall with each and every phone call / just to see if i'd stay away / you and i could never break this never-ending focus of seeing who could keep playing games" <- very rhato 2016 to me. specifically like around #25 & the annual n stuff. idk if anyone else will see the vision or if it's just smth in my head that makes sense but yknow. bc rhato #25 is the big batman and red hood fight that ends with jason leaving gotham with roy and at the time he's pretty much Banned from gotham bc he'd broken the rules (not really) and batman made it clear that if he did that there'd be no more red hood, jason wouldn't be allowed to do as he wished anymore and all that shit. the whole stay away part is very much abt how jason is sort of Banned and stays out of gotham for awhile. idk can't articulate this one as well
"you lie through your teeth, feels so incomplete / wait for your story to take you too deep / and i call out your name" <- THE FIRST PART IS THE VICTIM BLAMING NARRATIVE AROUND JASON’S DEATH!!! THAT EVEN JAY WILL ADD ONTO BC NO ONE BLAMES JASON TODD FOR HIS DEATH MORE THAN HE DOES!!! U CANT CHANGE MY MIND!! BUT SERIOUSLY EVEN FROM A META POINT ITS ABT HOW EVERYONE ACTS LIKE ITS ALL JASON’S FAULT HE DIED BC HE WAS RECKLESS N SHIT ND MAYBE HE WAS A LITTLE BUT ITS NOT HIS FAULT! IT IS IN NO WAY HIS FAULT HE DIED! HE DIDNT TURN HIMSELF OVER TO THE JOKER AND HE DIDNT BEAT HIMSELF OR BLOW HIMSELF UP! IT WASNT HIS CHOICE TO SUFFOCATE BC OF ALL THE SMOKE HE WAS INHALING!! HE WAS JUST A KID!! AND HES TREATED LIKE THIS CAUTIONARY TALE IN UNIVERSE SO OTHER ROBINS (MAINLY TIM AT FIRST) KNOW WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU DONT FOLLOW ORDERS!! JASON DIED AND WAS TURNED INTO AN EXAMPLE! ITS ALL FUCKED UP!
then the calling out your name part is so. it's so evocative of the panels of jason in his grave waking up and realising he's trapped and calling out for bruce!!! it's so. it's got me fucked up
this is a very jason song to me now

I got too silly in duviri. It wasnt even circuit. I was just living my horse girl fantasy and exploring before I remembered DE bans for suspiciously long missions.
(I did not get banned. But I went "you know maybe I should leave.")

Can't even speak to people coming from neopets, but a lot of people who joined with me during one of the sign up windows way back, were coming in a mass Exodus from Gaia because it had been going downhill for a long time. Or from RP Tumblr. The thing about Gaia is, multi accounts is not only the norm, but expected. Especially in rp circles! Need an NPC? Brb, lemme make another account for them to post with. Need to make a vent post but don't want to have it associated with your main? Hammer out a quick throwaway account. Want to use another character in the same/a different RP? Make an account for them. The same is absolutely true for Tumblr where you could have a thousand accounts/pages for interacting with specific content be it a character or a vibe (how many of you have a side blog that is either your main or your fr?)
I've never played a game that didn't allow multiple accounts, much less one that was so strict on the policy. That part of the TOS should be in bright 2 foot red letters at the very top of the TOS because it's not/wasnt normal for a pet/game site to have, well, any rules about multi accounting, much less such cut and dry ones where you'll get banned 10 years after the fact if you oopsied once and had a second account for even one day before realizing. I don't know how it is now, but when I signed up the rule about multiple accounts was waaayy buried deep in the TOS after all the standard behavior rules that most people gloss over because they're all the same across the Internet: "don't be a dick, here are the things we specifically find to be dick behavior, it's pretty much the same here as everywhere else butalsodon'tmakeasecondaccount" I had to hunt for that shit on purpose, scan the whole of the TOS to find it the first time they started mass banning people. It was not easy to find! Especially for a bunch of kids.
And tbh, it would be one thing to ban funneling, via any accounts wether they were multis or otherwise. Because funneling has always been a dick move. But to be as strict as they are over a rule that, at least back then, is so hard to find is genuine insanity and it doesn't surprise me at all that the main admins are/were cops/friends with cops where the rule of the world is "Everyone is evil except us. We are the only ones who are good and it's us against them."
For the record, I'm not arguing that multi accounting should be allowed, I understand why they're doing it even if I don't agree with it. I'm just saying how strict they are is crazy, especially when it comes to mistakes someone might have made as a literal child and punishing them for it as an adult.

anyways a quick good news bad news i normally do this just in my own head so today im sharing
good news : supreme court isnt entirely corrupt they did remember what the constitution says and did support the right to trial! thank fucking god lets hope they do it again with the citizenship case that theyre also currently hearing ! (alito and thomas are the weak links of us all they did vote to do away with the right to trial)
bad news : one of the worst days of bombing in gaza today. as israel enjoys eurovision ! at this point theyre bombing rubble - so you know damn well they know theyre hitting civilians they can fucking see them. OH! and they themselves said 80% of the people being hit were civilians per their own records. so. thats something.
good news : chris brown's bail was denied and he will be in jail until at least june 13th (he got arrested in the uk)
bad news : major storms across the us!! last i checked 600k without power ; probably will go up as there are more storms on the way!!
weird news : yellowjackets fans ask for their show to be cancelled for the 15th time this year ! (a bit ridiculous) AND 911 fans have been asking for their head writer to be sacked ! (arguably it seems less ridiculous) (but listen to the secret ! what both sets of fans dont know is that the tv industry is actually crumbling as we speak!!! these are the shows on the titanic lifeboats ! they need quite literally all the support they can get ; so we should really fact check things before we scream about them!)(and google definitions. and maybe foreshadowing. or the concept of a slow burn. i thank you hacks fans for doing those two things)
god news ; the pope has a twitter and plans to be active on it. for some reason i have followed him. i am not catholic. but hes cousins with one of my favorite tiktokers so like .... thats friend
dumb news : trump complained about taylor swift and bruce springsteen. i really dont know the man picks weird petty fights he with his full chest said he was hot and taylor swift wasnt i dont know
fashion news : the majority of dresses im seeing on the TL are made out of scraps of fabric. the economy is dire.
economy news : soooooo i dont really know what it means (guessing its like pokemon cards) but we got downgraded from a AAA economy to a AA1 and apparently thats like a going from a 10 to a 9 but in economy it has to be like really worse to do that rather than with cards where its anything so as i said per my fashion statement - economy dire
annoying news : if the us porn ban goes through be prepared to have lots more of the subtle fetish content everywhere. weird mukbangs, weird 5minutecrafts. oh and of course for a lot more sex workers to be put in danger but unfortunately most of the people supporting the bill do not give a fuck about sex workers and actually generally get a kick out of giving them punishment and i'd honestly assume some get off on it under the guise of religion. but sure we gotta ban the places they can safely work and make sure theres not child porn right right right (as much of the internet would have you think - im very disappointed in many of you) (i hope you understand this is quite literally the direct impact of antishipping - welcome to an example of ~manufacturing consent~ ; where the government (or people within it or marketing or or or) really want to do something, but they need the public to support it. so they find a way to get that public support ! even if it takes tricking them, manipulating them, hurting them, they dont care, so long as the public now also want to do the thing they want to do). i wrote way more than i intended here.
my tiktokfeed news : someone made one of my fave titktokers cry :( be nice
ugh news : hacks fans - could they just fucking make out already they're getting on my nerves
updates on the fascism : after a few congressmen (ex but still) were tweeting about '86'-ing people, a journalist did the same as a satirical pointing out of the other, received a chat from the secret service. so just keep that in mind i guess
THG news : we got snow today. mixed reception. he has a very not good history of being a jk rowling backer (he is voldemort after all). as a whole; this was the only fancast i had seen, so i assumed everyone was expecting him to get the part. seems that was not the case. (the children are not taking the roles of their dead fathers guys )
upsettingpersonalnews: you ever do the thing where you say something then an account you love sees you do it then complains about you doing it ? yeah. that happened. in my defense - im right. this will make no sense ; but its not even the same outfit anyways its a completely different fabric and im so sorry for thinking a baroque velvet would have looked cooler than polyester blue. but i digress.
ugh 2.0 news : tate mcrae wont leave any of my timelines. im so sick of seeing her. no shade or anything. i just do not like her or interact with any content about her nor listen to her songs and i am not even a fan of olivia rodrigo like that - but she is every 5 posts and has been for 4 months. i am sick of her. and addison but thats all shade
realizations of an american news. : asian culture like film and tv is soooooo chill with sapphic media i am so jealous yall have so much fun stuff ! i have no idea how or where to find any of it much less what to even watch but.... its like grown up wlw barbie movies over there i am jealous as hell (obvious obligatory not all but like, at least 4 which is more than the white people have we have ~maybe~ france)
silly news??: fortnite got blocked off apple
anyways i shall leave it there i hope this was entertaining or informative or both if you read this far. started as like very serious but then i ran out of news but not the need to deliver information so this is what you got. please know if its something ridiculous im either being sarcastic or saying it in the tone of the toymaker in the 60th specials all 'this is fucking absurd but it seems to be what is actually fucking happening in actual real life despite how absurd it is!!" okay cool <33

early 2010s tumbkr fandom to mid was a really specific era too... ppl blame the nsft bans for what tumblr became but there was a really specific shift happening around 2016-2017 that was like. i always say u couldnt do the onceler fandom after. like moment in time for multiple reasons (askblog culture was at its peak) but esp bc it was pre before everyone got nervous abt what they posted.
partially bc 2014-2015 was when anti culture became a thing (n sjw which was a precursor for names the groups in question never called themselves) n everyone was figuring it out n both had lasting consequences in terms of how media gets consumed but more importantly being like Cringe or Too Authentic abt things u enjoyed wasnt cool anymore which turned any communities into private friend groups n also the search function stopped working somewhere in there thats right ive been here so long i remember when it DID actually work

another quastion. how does zelda feel about the castle. pre and post calamity. have people gone into the castle after the calamity and could she sense them/how does her telepathy work/what can she see if anything
HM!!!
ok so. this had me rethink a Lot about my zelda because. trying to tie her into the story and/or give her thematically relevant motives/problems is Specifically Hard with the theme i chose (if you can even call it a theme). and also i had to go over what she would actually think in her situation and it. not really tying into how she thought of it beforehand. im still going over it honestly and canon botw makes this so much harder why did they Do That…. this especially complicates her father and hers relationship at least from normal fandom standards but at the very least i can deal with that
castle time ok!!! pre cal its mostly just her house. one that has stupid rules sometimes but otherwise shes doing pretty great!!! the sheikah tech are extremely abundant near the castle, both seen in the memories (including the champions dlc memory) but also makes sense given where the sheikah tech was buried to begin with. her relationship with her father gets. More Strained as time goes on. to be clear he does care for her and the whole reason he bans her from the tech in a memory is so she can prove to everyone how she isnt a failure. the problem with that though is that he prohibits her only real solution to her powers, the one tangible thing that Can stop the calamity. id also feel like at he end of conversations he would ask about her training which could lead to arguments. shes still able to infodump things to him (only really more towards the beginning though), which he takes more to heart once hes dead. and he kind of has to unban her from the sheikah tech at one point, nearing the calamitys arrival. it leads to a Hell of an argument from both of them because he Wants to keep her banned or grounded more than ever before, but well. circumstances have changed. but back on topic castle wise everythings chill. most of the knights or soldiers cant go into the castle having like. 2 rooms where they are allowed, and the guards are just like maids and such to her. theyre there and they dont intrude Too Much. gestures to the post she doesnt want to Not be a princess she doesnt want to be a Failure of a princess, and the castle doesnt really remind her much of that. her room might..? but theres no signs to that when you go into it when its broken and such. there isnt even a goddess statue in there. so. yeah! i may add that? BUT ANYWAYS.
post cal!!! mixed feelings. on one hand? Anger. anger that the calamity revived There, angry that it came early when she was so close, angry that the payoff she hoped for never came and she had to do all of that only for the castle to get destroyed and 100 years to pass and her friends to die. she doesnt think she did it for nothing, but shes Close to thinking that just by proxy of how events happened. she needs to go in there eventually to retrieve Her Stuff (plushies, printed photos that werent taken by purah, diagrams, books etc) and it just. messes a bit with her how everything is destroyed and how the grass and trees are all dead from malice and guardians. if she rebuilt the monarchy she’d likely leave the old castle in ruins, building another one in a different location, leaving the old one as a monument of sorts to What Happened. she wouldnt view everything as her or links failure she’d just view it as a stupid stupid moment that didnt have to happen but did anyways. especially because she Has Her Powers Now. she got to the springs she has her powers shes a Princess. she didnt fail at what she was supposed to do, its just her monarchy is a failure rather than her if that makes sense??????????? she has no place to Be a princess after she spent so long trying to be one. an ending that wasnt worth it. so the castle is generally unpleasant to be around. shes upset about everything being destroyed but also pretty mad about it. she keeps it there more to hurt herself than anything else. she thinks its a reminder and in part it is its just not a useful reminder of any kind . not to say the monarchy was good mind you just the circumstances in which it got destroyed, Especially For Her, werent great!
people have gone into the castle after the calamity!! or at least before link wakes up but during when zelda is still fending ganon off. that mostly aligns with canon surprisingly as npcs can tell you how they Used to be able to get into the castle for gear but now theres monsters all over the place. i think that ganons malice was still there and the cocoon was also still there he just was less actively fending off the castle because there was no need. priorities 🔥🔥🔥. i..! think she could sense them, but not really realize it was them for lack of a better word. like she knew someone was in the castle but she either was A not able to focus on it too much or at all or B could focus on it but had no idea What It Was. like it couldve just been a feeling when someone was in the castle but she’d have no idea thats what that feeling came from if that makes sense. once link wakes up shes able to focus on other things more outwardly but still focuses more on ganon. her telepathy i think works based on ganon and sheikah tech alerts :] like for example theres apparently a control unit for the towers underneath the castle. if ganon was using that accidentally then zelda would also have a tie to that just by proxy of being eaten by him. its like. she could visually see or audibly hear something change, and that goes for when the divine beasts yell when you come near them and she warns you of them if you havent talked to impa or when ganon yells when you come to the castle. she was able to wake you up to do the shrine of resurrection letting out an alert of some kind. how it works or even if its connected to the castle at all i dont know though. maybe a hivemind or a message system like the divine beasts? where the shr actually the shrine of resurrection Is Technically a divine beast so it could absolutely have a messaging/alert system. how it gets to the castle i have no idea. either the castle is also a divine beast or theres a main control unit under there. or the alerts from the SoR get broadcasted across the main tech that needs it, though i dont know why theyd do that… but the tower is more straightforward thats connected to the castle. the five minutes after playing she just has no idea what links doing and tells him to head there out of necessity . the divine beasts yells are just Loud and more loud to her specifically because ganon has a hand in that. ganon yelling is self explanatory. how shes able to talk to link telepathically to begin with ? no clue. it probably has something to do with whatever her powers are or how zeldas of the past were able to use telepathy, but its more likely just a result of her powers. i think she more or less found out via ganon though. either he can also do that or she just. kind of Had To after being eaten.
for what she sees….! thats tough. i saw a comic once that had zelda be able to see through hylia statues, which is cool however thats kind of bogging her down to being hylia 2.0 which. she isnt. and also considering her Issues with hylia i almost feels mean. she Could be able to see through the divine beasts possibly ? whether im doing that is up for debate though. Though it could make for some accidental horror? like having a divine beast constantly Facing Your Direction no matter how far away you are, or when its moving in a circle it suddenly just doesnt turn and either stands and stares at you or goes towards your direction. horrifying and i dont think zelda would be able to do that (more looking through them rather than controlling them) but i like divine beast horror. anyways considering the divine beasts have consciousness? i dont know if she’d be able to. do that. like hijack it just to see whats happening
inside ganon she can actually see things.! not from the outside mind you but its not just pitch black. whether its a different world, pure malice, just sheikah tech, is up to debate. or up to how i design it honestly i need to figure . that out. but yeag. i shall draw it once i have an idea of it
also please note how she feels about the castle is . Subject To Change. i feel like a conspiracy theorist trying to make her work here. but for now!!!!! yeah!!!!!! im going to try to expand her when i expand the champions. or when i decide how the relationships are going to work and what works better . 👍
