Audio Drama Sunday - 25th May ✨

I had to return to the 9-5 this week, but having a commute again did mean that I got to listen to lots a great audio drama!! 

🌲 @hellofromthehallowoods (191) Shelby and Shank’s relationship is so awfully delicious. They know each other so well but only the worst parts. I do hope their paths cross again for a more healing goodbye. Danielle! The woman that you are! I adore her!! Cole is like a cornered animal and it’s going to change things when he snaps for sure. Victoria! come back to us!! The only thing more important than a scoop is friendship, honey!! 

🍎 @notquitedeadpod (XLVII) These gd vampires are going to be the death of me. I love Alfie calling out Neige’s hypocrisy of getting annoying at his experimentation while running secret experiments on him… Always so fun to hear from a stricken Hayley! She’s more unhinged than we give her credit for. I literally wouldn’t go to Paris?? But I guess that’s why I’m not final girl material… 

🎃 Waiting For October by @monkeymanproductions (8) ahhh! What a lovely end to the season! Of COURSE October was pulling out all the stops for our girls 🧡 I’m so glad they got to have a conversation true to both of their needs and work out how to proceed in a way that’s good for both of them! We SHOULD be celebrating our differences within a relationship and ensuring everyone’s needs are met! And THE MOON! That made me smile so much!! 

🧋 @hinaypod (58) Ooh, Laura! Ooooh oh dear!! Just as I thought this show couldn’t get any messier! Jesus! Call me old fashioned, but I think if you need to have a discussion about messing around with a piece of your girlfriend’s ex-girlfriend’s soul … that shouldn’t be left for later. . . I loved J’s account in this one! Really creepy! 

🔮 @spiritboxradio (1.33-1.36) Stickler and Stickler!! In the flesh! They’re so fun! I loved the letter about the pigeons, perfectly chilling! 🐦🩶

💬 @clinical-space-podcast (2) Space octopus! That’s so fun!! Imagine having going to the psychologist because a big old octopus tried to shag your ship 😭 that’s why the job is important, who else can you speak to about that?? I’m sad that the cows have gone, even the good ones ☹️ And hell, yeah, mummy issues, let’s go!!! Government mandated friends is such a wild concept, hope they’re not the most irritating people on the ship! 

🥊 @killjamxxx (01-02) Sign me the fuck up as a card-carrying Fetamite!! I’m 2 eps in and already obsessed with this audacious, vicious, hilarious new show! Faustina is impossible not to adore! I read Chain Gang All Stars last year and this feels like that book did a line of bubble-gum scented cocaine and somehow got even more queer! I can’t wait to see where it goes! I have a feeling it’ll keep me guessing! 

Have a great week! 💙

[thewritetofreespeech]

Yay for headcanons! Do you have any for how Noe and Vanitas would be in a poly relationship w reader? (can be any aspect, though i can narrow it down if that's too vague!)

In my humble opinion, this is the most accurate depiction of a relationship for Noé or Vanitas.

Noé is used to being ‘1 of 3’ from growing up so close & so intimate with Domi and Louis all his life, and Vanitas would never truly feel comfortable being in a 1-on-1 relationship. Vanitas would need that buffer, which he has decided is an intimate blocker, when in reality it is an intimacy gateway.

Their relationship would start out as friends. The collective trying to save vampire kind. Over time it would become more intimate between the danger and just close quarters.

Noé would likely make the first move for intimacy. Touched starved he needs physical attention to calm down and right himself after a particularly hard conflict.

[Y/N] would of course accept him openly and that is how it starts.

Vanitas is at first jealous of their change in relationship. Thinking he’s being pushed out, but [Y/N] lets him know that’s not the case.

Most of their relationship doesn’t change, only added to.

Noé and [Y/N] still act silly. [Y/N] showing him around Paris or some of the interesting things he might not have experienced being ‘locked away’ for so long.

Vanitas and [Y/N] can share their cynicism. Snarky comments and jokes about vampire hierarchy, as well as a deep hatred for the church.

One aspect that does change is when they are out on missions.

The boys are hopelessly in love with [Y/N] and will do anything to keep them safe. Mostly to their detriment.

This becomes an issue during fights and [Y/N] has to remind them that they are perfectly capable, and don’t need rescuing in most cases. They hear them but do not listen very well.

At night, Noé and [Y/N] always share a bed.

He’s desperate for touch still and wraps around them like an octopus during the night.

Vanitas doesn’t always join, still a big fan of his own space.

When he does join though he either sneaks into their bed in the middle of the night or just pushes them over to the other side before bed and lays himself down, both without a word.  

Noé & [Y/N] are more sexually intimate. Vanitas participates but infrequently. He will never admit it but he prefers when it’s all 3 of them vs just him & [Y/N].

[thesiltverses]

forgive me if this has been answered before, whether in canon or tumblr, its been a minute since I've listened. Are animal sacrifices common? What would happen if you turned an animal into a saint, and like, whats the difference between human and animal saints if there is any? (If its something like consciousness or whatever, would an octopus or similar hypothetically work just as well as a sacrifice?)

I imagined animal sacrifices as roughly analogous to how feeding upon animals is often presented in vampire lore - it happens, but it's generally viewed as a second-rate or emergencies-only measure, or even a blasphemous insult depending on your point of view (after all, so much of hallowing is specifically about human beings becoming animalistic or primordial in some way)

Dungeon Meshi Quick Reacts

Monster Tidbits: 3 & 4

Forgot to do this for some of them so I'm going back and getting the ones up through chapter 28

I read this tidbit and immediately went 'how close ARE squid and octopus phylogenetically?' And it turns out they're kinda close, but also. Vampire squids are closely related to octopods! Moreso than to other squids. That's neat!

Anyway.

The dungeon and its vast resources are really wasted on hack-n-slash adventurers. It feels like only Senshi really appreciates how much you can strip and use from such a large animal.

Though I suppose the ecosystem gets it in the end anyway so it's not a complete waste....

I'd forgotten Laios hates kraken lmao.

.................dude really pointed a sperm tube at his own face and shot a load at his forehead. Incredible. World's least sexy facial, confirmed. Congrats, Laios. That's the worst anyone's ever done it, buddy.

Chillchuck, you only live to be like, 40. Maybe stop trying to reinvent the wheel capitalism in your lifetime....

Meaning Chillchuck can live to be poor enough to travel with them another day! Hoorah!

...can this translator just not ever spell the word tentacles?

You don't need a brain to grow in good places. You just need to grow in good places and survive to have progeny that also favors good places to procreate and then-- ah, nevermind. Why am I explaining evolutionary pressure to a manga.

You did your best, buddy.

didn't you guys encounter mermaids? Or were those... sirens...?

hang on, what do you mean they die?!! Just from being the first one to hear it?!

Oh, wait, you mean like, they hear it and jump in first? Damn.

Ah, right, they're completely different species.

go, girl, get your calories.

.........how much mana can a dragon store, huh marcille. How much.

no need to brag....

need me that meme of a fat kitten that's full of milk, but make it Namari, full of mana.........

I was gonna say 'fluffy pitbull' but then I saw 'clever'.... ah, bully breeds. Braincells are in short supply.

GET. THAT. MAN. A. PUBBY.

Listen, you. Laios is a treasure, you hear me? He's a treasure. He's also way too much of a freak for you to reason with. Just leave him alone with his warg plans.

Bag of Holding MIGHT actually be the most broken thing there is. Hm.

THE BULLYING! WHO IS IT FOR?! WHY ARE YOU GANGING UP ON HIM

Laios: If I can't be THE MOST OBSESSED then what's even the point?

King shit. Absolutely pathetic meow meow. There is so much wrong with him.

Kinktober: October 20th - Morning Sex (Papa Emeritus I x Female!Reader)

Tags: Established Relationship, Sleepy Sex, Spooning, Creampie, Age Gap, 1st Person POV

Sunlight streamed through the window, flooding the room and shining down on my face. My eyes blinked open, taking a moment to adjust to the morning light. I groaned sleepily and stretched, reaching for Primo to hold him closer to me. I was curled around him, arms and legs wrapping around like a sleepy octopus. I knew Primo liked to be up as soon as the sun was, but I wanted a few more moments of this bliss, to cuddle with my love, listening to his heart beat and the birds sing pleasantly.

Primo shifted closer, gently wrapping me in his arms and placing a soft kiss on my forehead. "Good morning, amore mio." He whispered, his voice deep and laced with drowsiness. "Did you sleep well?" I huff and grumble incoherently, trying desperately to cling onto my last ounce of sleep.

"Does my love need to rest some more?" Primo coos almost condescendingly. "I'll never understand your generations disdain for waking up before noon." I roll my eyes, nuzzling my face on the wrinkled skin of his chest. "Stay in bed with me..." I plead with him.

"Oh, my sweet girl, I'm afraid I cannot. There is a very busy day ahead of me. Important meetings to attend, flowers to attend to. Now that I'm remembering, the marigolds were looking particularly dry the last time I saw them..."

"You're putting me to sleep again." I tease, cutting him off with a long fake snore. He slaps my wrist in a playful warning. "Rude." He tuts. He tries to get out of bed, but my grip on him is firm and unrelenting, refusing to let him rid me of him. "My love, I have to go."

"Nuh uh. Sleep."

"I'll whip up some breakfast for you before I leave, how about that?"

"I'm not so easily swayed, Papa." Primo scoffs. "Clearly." He mutters, my stubborn nature both a thrill and a challenge for the old, lovesick fool. Suddenly, a small, mischievous smile twitched on his lips.

"Perhaps I can do something to help wake you up, dear?" He purrs, his hot mouth on my neck in an instant, planting soft, wet kisses. "Something to help get your blood pumping?" I shiver and lean into his touch, but he nudges me back the second I get close.

"No, no. You wanted to lay down with your Papa, si? So lay down, dear. Let me take care of you." He maneuvers me to my side, laying with me in a spooning position, bodies warmly pressed together. I feel his half hardened cock teasing my folds as his tongue continues to lap over my neck, sucking like a vampire. Primo loved to leave marks on me whenever he could, to let the whole world know I'm his.

He humps against my mound, hardening himself up from the feel of my slick. My sleepy quivers spur him on enough to make him grow quickly, working the tip in, then inch by inch, his long and veiny shaft. I feel the vibrations of his moan against the flesh of my neck, the smooth sliding in and out of my gummy walls was indescribably perfect. He didn't prep me before, but it wouldn't change much, considering the stretch is always mind blowing.

He thrusts as much as his old joints will allow him, my cunt clenching tighter with every delicious movement. The intimacy of the moment felt beautifully divine, sun beams dancing around the room, bodies tangled together in the sheets, the sound of wind whistling, birds chirping, and skin slapping, moans and murmurs exchanged between lovers. It was warm, gentle, fading in and out of consciousness from the calamity. Anytime I would get close to fading asleep once more, I was shocked awake from a particular snap of his hips, pulled back to reality.

"This must be the closest thing I'll ever get to heaven." I sigh, little whimpers of ecstasy spilling from my lips as my body jiggles from his thrusts. He titters softly. "Bold of you to say something like that in a church that worships the devil. Is that a compliment or an insult, mio fiore?" That would pull a laugh from me if there wasn't a huge cock pounding balls deep inside of me. His words were not my main focus at the time.

The anticipation was building, and it wasn't long before I came, my eyes rolled back in my head and my back arching impossibly high. I felt comforting kisses trailing on the nape of my neck. I feel him panting and growling against me, his nostrils flairing like an angered bull. I could tell his impending doom was creeping upon him as well. A relaxation washes over him as his orgasm breaks, warm cum filling the depths of my cunt, stilling inside of me.

"Y-you know what, amore?" Primo pants, body succumbing to exhaustion from overexerting himself too early in the morning. "I think we can sleep a bit longer, now that I think about it." I chuckle, but don't say anything in retaliation, enjoying the moment. We fall asleep together like this, his cock still stuffed inside me, the twitching and softening of his length lulling me into deep slumber.

Reading wrap-up April 2025

Less books this month but that's mostly because I didn't read as much poetry as I used to in the first three months of the year and also basically listened to zero audiobooks except for that little blip where I started The Soul of an Octopus

Mini reviews under the readmore

What My Bones Know by Stephanie Foo: 5/5

Loved, loved, loved this one. It's probably the most well-written and relatable memoir on complex trauma and more importantly recovery that I've read. Stephanie Foo doesn't sugarcoat anything and the first few chapters are pretty graphic on the depictions of child abuse. But that's also something I liked. How honest this book was about everything about complex trauma, especially the ugly sides. Also really related to her struggles with the social and interpersonal aftereffects of complex trauma and that's not something I've seen focused on a lot in memoirs. None of the memoirs I've read by other trauma survivors really focused on how this kind of trauma just makes you shit at being a human being and interacting with others but Stephanie Foo gives this a huge place in her book, including accounts of her own shortcomings due to her trauma and also how she worked on it with her last therapist and I was so utterly fascinated by what they did together in terms of analyzing trauma responses and how trauma comes up in relationships. Yeah, anyway, huge recommendation for anyone dealing with complex trauma

Nimona by ND Stevenson: 4.5/5

I got this at the Leipzig book fair and read it one evening when I struggled to sleep. It's pretty sweet and funny and I liked the worldbuilding and the twists on classical fairytale roles of villains and knights and so on. Nimona was a fun character too and I related to the bit of backstory we saw. I just feel like there wasn't enough of it at all, so that's where the -0.5 stars comes from

Sister, Maiden, Monster by Lucy A. Snyder: 3/5

This started out as pandemic horror with undertones of vampirism and then it verged into religious apocalyptic horror and I didn't see that coming. The premise was interesting, I just wasn't really a fan of the sexual stuff because it's not something I'm remotely into lol. Also would have liked to get some more information on what the heck was going on and who those beings bringing about the apocalypse were but oh well

Before the Coffee Gets Cold by Toshikazu Kawaguchi: 3/5

There's a café that allows you to travel back in time but there's a few rules and one of them is that you have to finish the coffee you get when you travel back before it gets cold. Or you get stuck in the past. Also you can't change anything about the present. No matter what you do, the present stays the same. It's a sweet premise, focused on interpersonal relationships and what you'd say to someone who matters to you if you got a do-over of a conversation. It just kind of fell flat for me because I felt zero connection to these characters and like the narrative kept some distance between them and me. I'm not sure if it was a translation issue or just the style of the book, but yeah, not the biggest fan

The Midnight Feast by Lucy Foley: 5/5

Just a superb thriller. Loved how it kept up the suspense throughout with the different timelines, the present one where everyone prepares for the party at the hotel, the future one where we already know the hotel burned down but not why and that someone died but not who and the journal from the past that gives us clues about who all these characters are and how they are connected. Loved how it wove everything and everyone together in the end. Just really really enjoyed this one so much

The Unbinding of Mary Reade by Miriam McNamara: 3.75/5

I wanted gay pirates. I got gay pirates but also way too much religious guilt and shame. I liked Mary and Anne together. I liked the gay exploration and the gender confusion Mary dealt with because of dressing as a boy and pretending to be one all her life. It wasn't even unrealistic. But then the book stops way too soon for me. We don't even see them do any actual pirating together. I feel like sometimes books about pirates get a moral panic about implying pirating is morally good and then do some weird dance around it and trying to get the characters out of actually doing any pirating and being morally grey. Just with the historical knowledge I have about the golden age of piracy and Mary Reade and Anne Bonny, it would have been entirely possible to show them pirating together. There's an entire part of their story missing, the getting caught and tried for piracy. We could have had them escape then if we're going to take historical liberties anyway. Hell, we could have had bi Mary, Anne and Calico Jack in a poly relationship. Instead of "all men are bad and possessive and basically the same evil". Anyway, yeah, could have been better but also worse, I guess

Wie Sterben geht by Andreas Pflüger: 4.5/5

German espionage thriller. Title sort of means "How dying works". It's set during the Cold War and follows Nina who is sent to Moscow by the BND (German foreign intelligence agency) to lead one of their sources there. She starts out with almost no experience but soon becomes an excellent spy and develops some attachment to the source person, who's a high-ranking KGB officer, and tries to get him and his son out. There's two timelines as well here. The one that follows Nina's espionage journey in Moscow and the one where we first meet her where she's involved in an exchange of two prisoners to get the person she was working with in Moscow to safety and it all goes to shit. Which again made the book so much more suspenseful because you know that her Moscow timeline ends with them being found out but don't know how and you want to know if they're all fine after the exchange went awry. Knocked half a star off because it felt sort of like I didn't get to know the characters super well. But otherwise I really enjoyed this one

Burning in This Midnight Dream by Louise B. Halfe Sky Dancer: 4/5

It's a poetry collection about the (intergenerational) trauma of residential schools in Canada and it's very touching and emotional. I just don't really have much to say on it

[arc-misadventures]

So, my Spotify account gave me this little list of… stuff. Top songs, and what not, and I feel like sharing with you. Cause I also like to ask some questions if you would be so kind.

First off: The hell is, Otacore? Sounds like a robot, or some… fish. I’m going with a octopus.

Or, its the name of a transformer. Probably an, Autobot.

It was playing, ‘In Flanders Field’ when it showed this.

I’m Canadian so this song has very special meanings to me. It is by far the best rendition I have ever heard, the way the chorus keeps growing bigger with each verse. Ahh~! It’s sound perfect! Better then when we recited in grade school, where we all sounded like emotionless robots…

Honestly, until this I’ve never heard a good rendition of, ‘Flanders Field.’

I listen to it every, Nov. 11, since I first heard this song.

I’ve had this song in my like list for a month, and its my top song?

I thought that would be, ‘Soldier of Heaven,’ by Sabaton.

It is a good song.

And, lastly…

Dis…

Dis is cringe…

I mean, it makes sense I do like emotional dark atmospheric music.

But, vampire?

Dat’s cringe, no?

That’s it, sorry to bother you with a non-RWBY related story.

Till later then~!

[raggstorice]

So uh...

An anon( I think) asked for Jamil/Azul headcanons Azul/Idia headcanons or Azul/Idia/Jamil headcanons and I accidentally posted the answer before I was ready, panicked, and deleted it not realizing it would delete the ask too.

Oopsy?

(IM NOT IRRESPONSIBLE I SWEAR)

Anyways I'm doing all of them

Jamil/Azul:

An OTP of mine. I love them. Chapter Four was the gayest shit since sliced bread.(and vampire nails those are-)

@masterofrecords has an amazing fic for them it's gorgeous. (MARRY ME YOUR WRITING IS SO GOOD)

Anyways. Headcanons!

In above mentioned fic Jamil makes food for people to say that he cares about them. And he makes food for Azul. A lot. Soyeahthatsathingnow.

Azul comes to ALL of Jamils basketball games! The American football movie stereotype!

Azul likes Jamil's shiny hair things. Octopus instinct.

Jamil gives Azul shiny things as gifts.

"hey I found this coin in the vault at Scarabia do you-" "YES"

Jamil will never see that coin again

Azul/Idia

BOARD GAME CLUB BOARD GAME CLUB!!!

The nerd duo

This ship has really grown on me!

There's a comic on the Twisted Wonderland subreddit by u/Kamapon that really introduced me to the ship! It's slightly suggestive but it's so good! The art honestly looks official.

Gossip buddies over chess

"Did you hear? The science club room was set on fire." "EXCUSE ME WHAT?"

Idia is so shocked his hair flares up and the Board game clubroom almost catches too.

Idia takes Azul to a Premo concert and Azul just stares at their shiny costumes and light sticks

The blue lipstick gets everywhere.

Jamil/Azul/Idia

THE GRAND FINALE!!! This is so cute!

Obviously Azul and Idia go on dates to Jamil's games.

Jamil and Azul once held a conversation as to who could make Idia's hair the pinkest.

The only time it turned fully pink was when both of them worked together. Yay! THE POWER OF... Ship? What's a romantic word for friendship?

Azul introduces Jamil and Idia.

"this is Idia! He also doesn't like people!"

"...Azul. listen to yourself."

Everyone else on campus thinks they're weird.

They are.

Authors Note: IM SO SORRY ANON 😭😭😭😭

WIP Nearly-Wednesday!

💚💛 Fishtank fic! 🐟🖌️

I'm not sure how to tag this one...

❗Warnings for angst/whump/IVs. References Gordon having tried to treat his own injury to avoid hospital/smotherhens.

Only just rattled it off the top of my head so it's likely pants! 🙈

---------------

"Bag of the house white, if you please, my good sir!"

Gordon presented his preferred arm as though he were about to receive a stamp at the nightclub.

A nitrile-gloved hand turned his arm over and began searching for a vein.

"Your veins are awful. Keep collapsing," Virgil grunted, tightening the tourniquet.

"Can you blame them? I feel like an inverted hedgehog the amount of needles you vampires keep trying to stick me with!"

"There."

Virgil hooked the saline on the stand, then rummaged for some IV paracetamol.

"I'll not leave my crunch bar wrappers in Two if you swap the saline for something good..."

Virgil silently flushed the drip.

"Rum! Rum is good."

"No."

Virgil faced away, leaning the majority of his weight on the side counter and inhaled deeply.

Gordon watched his brother's back, seemingly able to read Virgil's silent thought-process through the minor tells of his breathing and body language. Virgil simmered with the quiet anger that was infinitely more terrifying than flat out rage.

Any minute, any second now; Virgil's calm facade would fracture, and the tirade would begin.

And three, two, one...

"Besides, we're all out of rum."

Gordon blinked; surprised by the absent lecture.

The aquanaut tried to read the room, but Virgil's poker face was just too good, so he offered up an impish grin. It was an artform Alan and he had mastered to disarm any disgruntled older brother.

"You know what I'm gonna say, right?"

"But why's the rum gone?"

"Virg! You do listen! We'll make a pirate of you yet!"

Virgil was quietly tapping the medscanner; focussing it on Gordon's knee.

"Blackbeard! You grow this stubble out..."

Gordon prodded the Bear's chin, and Virgil's brows relayed his annoyance for him. Brother medic clearly making that mental note to shave later.

"Not happening Fish. There's only room for one pirate in this family."

"John?"

"No-wha?"

"C'mon...have you seen his movie collection?"

"He lives in space."

Virgil opened his mouth to argue, then seemingly tired of the conversation and returned to the scanner.

A high-pitched beep, and an image of Gordon's right knee hovered in the air before him.

"Jesu-

"-Check it out! I only need four more legs, then I'll be an octopus!" Gordon joked, in a last-ditch attempt to distract from the horror written on his brother's face.

"Four? Wait. No. It doesn't matter. You're not distracting me from this."

"Ehhh, worth a shot."

Virgil folded his arms. Stood straight, still heavy-booted; his brother cut a rather menacing figure when riled.

The wall of muscle spoke.

"How long?"

"Idunno." His answer was more sound than word.

"How. Long?"

Virgil wasn't even looking at him now. A sure sign that his medic brother was anticipating his answer.

"Hydrofoil."

Virgil threw his arms up then turned to face away.

The engineer stared out of the curved glass window, and his mutter was lost to the ocean - which was probably for the best.

Gordon focussed on steadying his breathing. Who knew you moved so much simply by breathing?

"The consultant said it's more prone to dislocating now," he offered by way of an explanation.

Virgil scoffed, then tapped on his watch.

"You didn't say anything. I'm your brother and..."

Virgil began reorganising supplies.

Guilt gnawed alongside the aquanaut's pain.

"You'd just take me back to hospital," he mumbled.

"So?"

"So, A&E'd just refer me to the people I'm already seeing."

"Well sure, but they could at least reduce the joint for you?"

"Why bother? I can do that."

You're not medically trained.

"S'not that hard...I'm basically a human Rubik's cube. YouTube-"

"YouTube?! Christ Gords! Do you realize how reckless you're being? You could seriously injure yourself! You'll destroy your joints!" Virgil waved fiercely at the scan.

Gordon shrugged.

"They're toast anyway."

Virgil dragged his hands down his face and groaned through clenched fingers.

"Gordon. I get it. Really, I do. You don't want to worry anyone. You hate hospitals - we all do! But don't you owe it to the people out there to look after yourself better?" The medic jabbed at the horizon.

Heyo! Meet the person doin the art stuff!

( • ̀ω•́ )✧

Issa meee! In case one cannot read my chicken scratch handwriting, here's the rundown under the cut:

My name is AC, 25*, Sagittarius, She/her and They/them, from the USA. I've got two cats (Tux and Dragon) and two dogs (Marti and Coco) whomst I love very much. I'm also Bi/Omni and my gender is fluid (at least those are the labels that fit me in this portion of my life)

Fun Facts! I'm a rightie but I lead with my left foot (which is uncommon for those who are right hand dominant, I believe) I think that's because it's a habit from when I was learning Tae Kwon Do. I have three tattoos (currently, but I've got plans for MORE) and one of them is a glowy UV ink tattoo of the 2017 total solar eclipse! I was also on a bowling league! I think my highest game was 267 but it's been literal years so I could be off.

I like: cats, music (seriously the playlist I consistently listen to has a little bit of everything), vampires (or more generally gothic stuff), whiskey, pins and stickers (I have a little collection), writing, fantasy, and all things beachy!

I dislike: avocado, clowns (coulrophobia baybee!), the sound of scraping against ice/ice skating, piercing noises in general, anxiety (it is HELL), and my own handwriting lol

and for the little blurbs next to me: Yes, my ears are pointy, I'm 5' 4", I have a memorial tattoo on my arm (it's representative of my grandparents), comfort above ALL, I have a blue ringed octopus tattoo on my thigh, and ankle socks FTW

*Gotta update the pic

[tomicaleto]

For the duolingo prompt 🥺 #18 “By the way, nothing happened.”, please???

Thank you for sending this one to me! It took me a bit but I bring it to you now! And it's 2562 words so at least we have that!

Prompt list (feel free to send me another one!)

Context: this is set in the same AU as this snippet. Basically it's a Ben 10 AU. You can find more context for it in that post linked there, but basically, Ahsoka, Anakin and Obi-Wan are filling the roles of Ben, Gwen and Kevin. Ahsoka is still a Togruta.

For this snippet's particular context: the plot follows the one from an actual episode from the series but adapted to these characters and from my vague memories of it and also this breakdown of the episode. By this point in the AU, they still don't know Anakin is an anodite. Hope you enjoy!

“By the way, nothing happened.”

Ahsoka watched as Obi-Wan paced across the room, over and over and over, until she was almost sure he was going to leave a trace over the wood. It’s not like she wasn’t worried, Anakin had left for a date earlier today, after a fight with Obi-Wan, and had yet to show any kind of life signal since. 

She didn’t even know what they had fought about, with Obi-Wan being private about his relationships and Anakin being gone and also usually closed off in general. He was –slowly– becoming better about talking about his past and feelings with his team members, but they still had a long way to go. 

She was about to tell Obi-Wan to sit down and drink the coffee she had so kindly made him when her phone rang.

Anakin had honestly not tried to end up in this situation. He had had an argument with Obi-Wan and said some hurtful things and got hurtful things said to him in return. And so, temperamental as he was, he had stormed away from Obi-Wan and wandered around the university halls where he taught until he had come across a random dude and invited him for a drink. It had been a petty move and he wasn’t really proud of it, but the man had accepted, looking him up and down with a lecherous glint in his eyes and it was too late to pull back. 

The man, Rush Clovis, behaved… acceptably, despite his eyes revealing his less than pure intentions towards Anakin. He had planned to do the bare minimum and leave as soon as possible, but then Clovis had asked Anakin for help with a situation that had been worrying the faculty for some months and his curiosity had been picked. This guy knew something that had Obi-Wan and his colleagues worried and he had kept it hidden from Anakin (possibly Ahsoka too, but he had known her before he had even met Anakin, so he doubted it). He also had a badge on his belt that Anakin pretended not to notice.   

And so, Anakin found himself listening to a vampire-like situation. Girls and young boys showing up with pale skin sucked into their bones, strange suction-like marks, like those of an octopus on their arms and necks, passing out as soon as they were found, their ailment unknown. 

“The only clue we have,” Clovis explained, “is that they are what is considered to be conventionally attractive, before being attacked.” 

They explored the university grounds, asking around and looking for further clues. Clovis, when he was not leering at Anakin, turned out to be a… passable guy. He was nowhere close to Obi-Wan, who could be so chivalrous and witty, but since he was pissed at Obi-Wan, Clovis would do.  

Anakin was about to call it a day, go back to his little one room apartment and eat some food and wait for the next day to ask Obi-Wan for more information, pride be damned. 

And then, as he was about to part ways with Clovis –nevermind his almost pathetic attempts to get Anakin to stay– a woman came across them, matching the illness’s description perfectly. Anakin rushed to catch her as she collapsed in his arms, energies completely drained. 

As subtle as he could, he checked her mana and found it almost gone, by all accounts she could be considered dead, or close to it. “She needs a medic.” Clovis took her from his arms. “The infirmary is just a couple of meters far.” Anakin frowned, he could have carried her himself, but in the end shrugged and followed Clovis.

The nurse on shift quickly began caring for the woman once they had arrived, her worry clear, and Anakin saw the hint of at least another three occupied beds. Just as he turned to check on the victim they had brought in, he caught Clovis with his hand on her forehead, a yellow glow surrounding it. The girl seemed to recover some of her colour, and Clovis let out a tired sigh. 

Before he could pull his hand away, Anakin grabbed his wrist and a spark flowed between them. “You have mana.” He stated, still shocked. Clovis studied his expression before his shoulders dropped. “This is not how I wanted you to find out.” He said. “I’ve seen you around, with professor Kenobi. I noticed the way you use mana on a daily basis. And the faculty seems to be taking their time dealing with this situation. I've been trying to cure them and find the cause, that’s why I asked for your help.” He sounded genuine, and there was no trace of his earlier leering.  

Anakin bit his lip and finally let go of Clovis’s wrist. He hesitated, considering his next move. “We’ll need help.” 

—

“Anakin!” Ahsoka and Obi-Wan got down from the car and hurriedly approached Anakin. “We were worried about you! You didn’t text and you have been gone for hours!” Obi-Wan was the first to get near Anakin, already venting his worries, the early anger forgotten and he moved as if he were about to hug Anakin when Clovis stepped in between them. 

He froze in his place, arms falling to his sides as Clovis smiled pleasantly at him and Ahsoka, who had caught up and was looking at Clovis and Anakin with a confused look. “Professor Kenobi, I’m so glad you joined us.”

Obi-Wan’s frown deepened and he turned to stare at Anakin, who had remained quiet so far. “Anakin, what’s going on?” 

“Clo– uh, Rush here has power like us.” Anakin said, only gesturing towards Clovis with his hand. The man smiled with his most charming smile to them as his answer. “He’s a plumber kid, showed me his badge.” 

Ahsoka turned then, more interested by that fact than by Clovis himself. “How did you two meet?” Obi-Wan’s eye twitched. “Anakin has been helping me investigate the attacks on the university students.” Clovis answered and it made Obi-Wan turn his head sharply towards him. 

“That’s not your responsibility, as part of the student body, you should have left it for the authorities to handle.” 

Clovis shrugged casually, carelessly. “And let more people get hurt? No, I have powers and I can help.” 

As if sensing the rising animosity in the air, Ahsoka shuffled closer to Anakin and cheerfully said: “Well, what are we waiting for! Today is a school night, so we don’t have time to waste before my curfew!” 

—

Hours later, the three of them found themselves driving back home, no answers found yet. Anakin had been relegated to the co-pilot seat, since this was Obi-Wan’s car. Ahsoka was asleep in the backseat and the silence was awkward and stiff. 

Obi-Wan’s hands were tight on the wheel, knuckles almost white with how tight he was gripping it. “I cannot believe you spent all afternoon with Clovis!” Anakin tensed in his own seat. “It’s not like I am committed to anyone, is it? I can go out with whoever I want to.” 

Obi-Wan scoffed, but didn’t answer. They eventually reached Ahsoka’s house and Anakin got out of the car and concentrated. With careful and slow movements, Ahsoka’s body began floating, her body surrounded by Anakin’s pinkish energy. He moved her up to her window, and opened it with his other hand as well. 

While he did all that, Obi-Wan studied him. What Anakin had said was true, they weren’t committed to one another, they hadn’t even admitted their feelings for one another, even if they both knew what the other felt. Or at least, Obi-Wan had thought so. 

He was broken off his thoughts by a knock on his window. “I’m gonna walk the rest of the way.” Anakin told him. “You go home now, You have classes to teach and we have another afternoon with Clovis ahead.” 

Obi-Wan tried to stop Anakin, but the man was stubborn and left on his own. With a tired sigh, Obi-Wan shifted gears and left as well.

—

“Have you noticed something weird about Anakin?” Ahsoka asked the next morning as Obi-Wan drove her to school. 

As a matter of fact, Obi-Wan had noticed plenty of things weird with Anakin, like the fact he had texted them that he would have a late morning that day, even with him being the early bird of the group. Or that he had gone on that little date with Clovis at all. And he could go on, but instead gestured to Ahsoka to say what she was meaning to say. 

“It’s just, and I may be wrong,” she hesitated. “That when we got to university yesterday, he was wearing his hoodie even while it was quite warm.” 

Obi-Wan frowned. “What do you mean?” “Isn’t it weird? He never really covers his arms when it’s hot outside.” 

“You think he was hiding something?” Obi-Wan asked, worry clear in his voice. Ahsoka shrugged. “You never know with him, what’s with all his secretive past.” She pouted. Anakin’s tendency to avoid talking about himself unless it was on vague and concerning statements was something that Ahsoka often took personally. “I like to think he’s been slowly getting better about it but I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s hiding something.” 

—

They were supposed to meet again that afternoon, see if they could find something now that the four of them were working together. But neither Clovis nor Anakin were at the meeting point once Ahsoka and Obi-Wan finished their job and school day respectively. 

“I don’t like this.” Ahsoka said. “I would understand Anakin not being here, if he slept in today but what about Clovis? He’s the one that dragged us into this.” Obi-Wan coughed into his fist and she stuttered. “I only mean that I wouldn’t have found out about this without him!” She explained. “I think I can track both their scents, see if they are on campus.” 

Before Obi-Wan could say anything, she had dialed up her selected alien and had turned into the Vulpimancer programmed in the watch. She sniffed the air around them and took off so fast that Obi-Wan was almost left behind. 

She ran across campus, until reaching what seemed to be an abandoned building. Obi-Wan recognised it as the old Chemistry building before they had updated the labs in the newer place on the other side of the place. 

Ahsoka turned back to her Togruta form, she turned towards Obi-Wan with a grim expression. “They are both in there.” She said. “I don’t understand why they didn’t wait for us.” 

Obi-Wan looked over her shoulder, he had a bad feeling about this whole thing. “Let’s go and see what we find.” 

—

What they found was Clovis, his skin seemed like a gold plate, yellow energy surrounding him and what looked like…

“Anakin!” Ahsoka shouted, revealing their position. 

Anakin was laying in Clovis’s arms, barely conscious. His skin had turned grayish, and his arms, that he had covered the night before were covered in the suction like marks. It was so obvious right then, what had been going on at the school for the last couple of weeks. 

“You! You are the one behind this all!” Obi-Wan exclaimed then. Clovis just laughed. 

“Indeed, and I couldn’t resist getting a taste of Anakin. He’s just so powerful, so casual with his powers. Simply delicious.” 

Ahsoka snarled, her hand already preparing her watch. “You’re such a creep.” 

If anything, this only made Clovis laugh harder. Behind him, the previous victims shifted slowly towards them. “Don’t blame me, I need the energy to live.” 

Finally, he let Anakin go and he fell to the floor with an ugly noise. Ahsoka turned into her Aerophibian and shot a laser at Clovis, but was easily rebuffed.. Clovis’s counterattack threw her hard onto the floor, the transformation breaking. 

Obi-Wan’s turn. He kneeled down and absorbed the concrete of the floor before sprinting towards Clovis, but couldn’t get close as the next shot of yellow power hit him straight. He covered his face with his arms, but felt as the layer of concrete fell apart and soon, he was landing next to Ahsoka. 

“Seems like I’ll have to get rid of you before you go tattling to the university authorities.” Clovis drawled, as if he weren’t talking about killing them. 

He took two steps forward and charged again, but just when he was about to shoot, Anakin’s weak hand grabbed his wrist. 

“What are you doing?” He cursed, as Anakin took the hit directly, his eyes glowing menacingly as he absorbed the hit. “Let go right now!” His skin began returning to its golden colour just as Clovis’s went grey. As the attack lost its power, so did Clovis, hair losing its healthy volume, lips dry and sucked in. Anakin, on the other hand, only got stronger as his energy returned to his body, and he only let go when he was done. Just before turning towards Ahsoka and Obi-Wan, he said “get him, girls”. 

He didn’t turn to see as Clovis’s victims turned on him, hungry for their own energy. He ignored the pained screams of Clovis as they stole what little energy he still had left.   

—

Only hours later they finally were done with the clean up and driving back home. The recovered victims, healthy once again, were guided to the infirmary to spend the night under supervision. Clovis was put into power-repressing cuffs and handed to the actual official from the plumbers that had shown up once they had contacted them. 

Anakin had been quiet, staring out of the window as they left Ahsoka home, watching as she knocked on the door and was received by her uncle. 

“Can I drive you home?” Obi-Wan asked, hoping Anakin would look at him. 

And he did. There was no smile on his face, but he didn’t look angry or sad, just tired. “Yes, please.” 

A couple of blocks on their way, Anakin quietly feigned a cough, and Obi-Wan turned his head slightly, indicating that he was listening to him. “I’m sorry about what I said the other night.” Anakin whispered. 

He fell quiet after that, and Obi-Wan thought that would be the end of it. He had even opened his mouth to answer Anakin. But then Anakin spoke again. “By the way, nothing happened. I know I went out with him but I wasn’t really serious about it.” 

Obi-Wan closed his mouth, not sure what to say. Anakin took it as an opportunity to go on. “I would have left earlier if he hadn’t asked for help, but I guess in the end it was good he did.” 

“Anakin, you should not explain yourself to me.” 

Anakin chuckled, but it was a hollow laugh. “Yes, I do. Because I told you I wasn’t committed to anyone. But that was a lie.” 

He didn’t add anything else, but he put his hand over Obi-Wan’s on the gear shift and sent him a shy smile. 

They didn’t say anything else the rest of the way, even as they reached Anakin’s house and he got out of the car. 

Obi-Wan watched him walk towards the door. Anakin opened it and turned the lights on. Just before closing the door, he sent Obi-Wan a look and gave him a small wave. Obi-Wan smiled at him before pulling away from the sidewalk and going home.

(ok so I realized I haven't introduced my poly polynesian OC relationship so imma do it rn)

INTRODUCING.. VĀ-KĀ YIPPEE ✨️✨️✨️

Vā-Kā is this kinda NZ K-pop group / band I made way back in lockdown, which was 4 years ago, and have since then been thinking about sm (along with all my other 100+ OC's but shh I'll talk about em in another post maybe lolz)

I created them because I was really bored and sad, and it was like, "mm wonder if there's like an NZ K-Pop group... imma make my own for funsies 😈😈😈"

It was supposed to be like a one-off thing, but they turned into this v real thing I could pull off when I'm older and have more experience with art, like I'm literally crying inside because the edits I could animate?? the music?? the unofficial photoshoots?? them in general?? so many ideas are crammed in my head fr

Anywaysss onto like actually talking about them!

There's 8 members overall, 6 girls and 2 dudes, and they're all best friends turned band / K-pop group turned lovers (cause I'm a sucker for friends to lovers fr)

It's kinda like a K-Pop group but not really it's like.. looser. Idk

I will post proper art of them eventually, but I'm so worried about like repping em wrong since like 7 members are POC, and even tho I'm POC, I'm feeling like I'd do something wrong so yeah

But anyways, time for actual lore stuff hooray 🥳🥳🥳

(Lore under the cut lolz)

Members:

💜 Tori Tuigamala / Lunar 💜

Tori is the oldest of the group and is one of the main leaders (the group doesn't really have leaders, but they all follow her and Kora since they both have the most level heads about shit.). She's introverted and a bit motherly, except its kinda like she'll nip you around the ears if you don't listen to her fr.

It always feels like she's the one who knows what to do because of how organized she is. She seems to plan out everyones schedule without their permission, even if it comes from a good place.

However, she follows through with the promises she makes every time, and actively tries to own up to whatever wrongdoings either her or her group cause, while watching out for the groups safety because she cares and loves them all so much, even if she doesn't say it enough like she'd want to.

Silly facts:

Dyslexic so often she'll record her notes through voice messages or voice-to-text to make it easier. Otherwise, Kora will note the stuff down when they're in meetings n stuff

Loves mochas, ube roll, chocolate chip cookies, and straight black coffee

insomniac, probably

Smells like pomegranate

Samoan-French, has 2 dads and a younger sister, Toni, who's also in the band

25 years old, oldest member. Bday is 31st August, starsigns a Virgo

Her as a squishmallow would be Violet the Octopus

Bisexual and Demigirl, pronouns are she/her + they/them

Height is 5'9"

A friend said that her clothing style would be similar to Hoonjoong from Ateez, and from analysing, it'd be like.. baggy shirts tucked into high-waisted pants or mom jeans-eque pants, washed out colours, sweaters, and cardigans, generally very soft and casual yet trendy if you style it right yknow

Seungmin-core from the "Which SKZ member are you?" quiz, and Yoongi-core from the "Which BTS member are you?" quiz

Favourite colour is purple 💜💜💜💜💜

One of the main singers of the band/group, the other one is Harper

Music taste is like.. jazz. soul music. R&B. idfk fr 😭😭😭😭

Voice claim is AACACIA cause I've always felt like she'd have this kinda deep-ish soul voice that's a lil bit floaty and lilty (idk how to explain my brain properly fr) and like.. soon as I listened to AACACIA, she just fit

Probably had an emo phase. or a vampire phase. maybe both. we don't talk about it

Eats plain rice when she's stressed, bored, overwhelmed, or all three (like me 😍😍😍😍)

Link to voice claim: https://youtu.be/bAAExYOc3VY

💙 Diana Kim / Fluxx 💙

Diana's a smartie seems so very cold and somewhat distant to the public because of how harsh and blunt her remarks come off as.

Their fandom + her group know that she isn't at all like that and that she has trouble communicating her feelings properly. She loves to talk about space and / or the ocean (it changes each day), makes clothes for group sometimes, does photography, and is actually a very soft and caring person, she just doesn't know how to express it properly sometimes.

It takes her a bit of a while to tho, and when she does, she puts in a lot of time and effort. On the inside, she's very expressive and ambitious, always eager to learn something new, and is encouraging her group with how she sticks constantly to one goal until she makes it without Diana realizing her effect.

Silly facts:

Loves earl grey tea, caramel brittle and carrot cake.

Smells like peppermint

Blasian (African-American + South Korean), has 3 parents (two are her birth parents)

24 years old. Birthday is 16th December, starsign is Sagittarius

Her as a squishmallow would be Perry the Dolphin

Bisexual and Demisexual, pronouns are she/her

Height is 6'0"

Friend said that she'd dress like smart but fashionable. Has a similar style to Seungmin or Hyunjin from Stray Kids, so it's half comfy and fashionable n half smart and fashionable

Changbin-core from the "Which SKZ member are you?" quiz, also Yoongi-core from the "Which BTS member are you?" quiz

Favourite colour is blue 💙💙💙

Plays keyboard / synth for the group

I'm not sure what her music taste is either, but it feels like a mix of classical and jazz music + BTS

Voice claim for her is Bic Runga

Ocean and space hyperfixation, my dudes

Takes photos of her members lovers and sticks it up on her room walls

BTS stan, biases are SUGA / Yoongi and RM / Namjoon

Has an Avatar (blue people) OC lolz

Link to voice claim: https://youtu.be/WJXfwo68C4M

💚 Asher Kieu / virt2 ��

Asher is v v quiet and soft-spoken, barely speaks up in the interview's or stuff the group has. Even though Asher's quiet most of the time, she's very perceptive and can often pick up on what others don't, making her a real good listener.

Is secretly a good cook + baker and sometimes plays piano pieces for the group or the fandom when she has the time on her solo livestreams. (I say secretly cause none of Vā-Kā let her into the kitchen. There's like... a 75% chance she'll set the entire thing on fire. Maybe. Probably.)

She's a very emotional kinda person, can kinda come off as being a bit sensitive even if she doesn't mean to get hurt. The fandom + members compare her voice to like an angels because of how like soft and gentle it sounds. It helps some of their fans, n tbh Asher loves being able to inspire their fandom even if she doesn't involve herself as much as she would like to.

Silly facts:

Likes mint chocolate chip ice cream, lemonade and caramel apples

Smells like vanilla sugar cookies.

Dark skin Vietnamese (still need to figure out the deets), also has 3 parents and a younger brother

23 years old. Birthday is 25th February, starsign is Pisces

Friend said that asher would dress in stuff that's really comfortable, like it doesn't have to look crazy good it just has to be comfy for them to hide and not draw attention yknow

Hyunjin-core from the "Which SKZ member are you?" quiz, Jimin-core from the "Which BTS member are you?" quiz

Fav colour is green (more specifically, mint) 💚💚💚

Backup vocals for the group, n plays acoustic guitar + piano if needed

I have literally no clue for what she listens to 💀💀💀💀💀 maybe like lofi, but I'm not sure yet

Voice claim is Georgia Lines (found her on a NZ mix playlist on Spotify and she kinda stuck instantly)

Strong self-esteem issues (me too ✨️✨️✨️✨️). doesn't choose to be in the spotlight in case it's seen as them showing off

Loves baking. Secret hobby of hers. Has a lil secret room in her room where she bakes and vibes

Autistic probably (me pt 2)

🧡 Kora Faletau / sivk 🧡

Kora is a grouchy but lovable and stupid idiot, keeps the group in check when they're in public, and helps to lighten the mood with some self-deprecating jokes at his expense.

Very intelligent. Smartiepants. High IQ mother fucker. Really tall. And strong. uh. yuh

Is almost always done with the groups shenanigans (especially when Harper, Micah, Toni, and Alto are being lil asshats), but he deals with it because they're the only thing that keeps him sane.

Most honest person in the group tho, will not be afraid to call you out on your shit. You lie to him, he will wrestle ur ass off that high horse in a second (he inherited his mother's sass and attitude to a point ong)

Silly facts:

Likes pizza n pasta despite being lactose sensitive / intolerant. Dumb shithead

23 years old. birthday is 21st September, starsign is Virgo

Demisexual Pansexual + Nonbinary, uses he/they pronouns

Height is 6'3", tallest member

Friend said that Kora would wear whatever he pulls out of the closet and somehow he'd still make it work, so they don't really have a set style and it's all over the place but it fits them

Bangchan and / or Changbin-core from the "Which SKZ member are you?" quiz, Namjoon-core from the "Which BTS member are you?" quiz

Fav colour is orange 🧡🧡🧡

Bassist, does keyboard/synth when Diana's not free + main rapper

Listens to rap n stuff, like Kendrick Lamar, J.Cole, Logic, and then siren jams because man's would not be complete with blasting some shitty siren jam early in the morning

Voice claim for him is Kings because he's kinda got like a deep kinda scratchy n smooth voice fr

V v Bangchan n Changbin-core like have you seen this dude work out. Mans used to play basketball too cause of his height, so he'd probably be real good at sports shit n like lean n built n muscular lolz

Hates physical contact when they're in interviews or other (hugs and kisses in front of people make him lose his confidence and gets him all embarrassed and shy), but loves it when the groups behind closed doors.

💛 Harper Mayfield / Sun-E 💛

Harper is an absolute ball of sunshine, jokes around and makes fun of her friends, very energetic, and hypes everyone up.

She's always on the move, whether it be from cleaning, cooking, to her favourite dancing, she's always found to be doing something in order to improve on herself.

Bros surprisingly wise and almost always manages to talk down confrontations, and her smile is known to brighten up both the group and their fandoms day. Whenever she makes someone happy, she's happy.

Favourite colour is yellow 💛💛💛

2nd Main Vocalist + Saxophonist for the group

Down bad. Down horrendously. Easy to fluster and easy to please. Silly silly Harper

Makes a lot of kandi n stuff for the group as accessories for when they dress up n shit. Loves it sm

❤️ Micah Tyjani / DUSK ❤️

Micah is very laid back and chill, takes a whole lotta shit to piss her off. She sometimes helps out Kora with cooking or the younger members (Toni and Alto) with being stupid as shit, but she goes with the flow most of the time.

She's a night owl kinda person too lol. Most of the group go to her for a place to vent or cry because she's so laid-back and lax with it, and she welcomes it all, as she always makes sure to check up on her members.

She cares a lot, and she cares very deeply about all of them, just like they all care for her fr.

🩷 Toni Tuigamala / Eris 🩷

Toni is the absolute opposite of her older sister. Where Tori is organized and figured out, Toni is brash and all over the place.

Although she fools around a lot and kinda comes off as a bit of a jerk, she can be quiet and caring when needed mhm mhm

Unafraid to speak her mind, and probably joins Kora in the "I shall beat u up with my words and my wit" category. Her wit is sharp, but her tongue is even sharper fr. Sassy lil shit.

Offers the best fashion advice and makes sure that everyone looks their best.

Sometimes, he surfs when he's got the time, but most of the time, he spends it doing gymnastics and / or working out and / or playing with Toni. Likes helping out around the groups house and gives the best hugs for such a short guy. Always energetic and bubbly, will not stop until he'd able to make your day better.

[konpakutodisukushonen]

So it's Easter weekend, resurrection time, and while the rest of the world is hunting eggs and pretending to care about ham, I'm locked inside communing with the ghost of Cream—baptized once again in the holy feedback of Clapton’s wah-wah gospel. The sun’s out, birds are chirping, but I’m on my own pilgrimage, digging through the wreckage of British blues like some deranged apostle of distortion.

Cream? Yeah, that Cream. Clapton's guitar a firehose of molten syrup, Baker playing like a pissed-off octopus, and Jack Bruce screaming through his bass like he's trying to punch a hole in God. I got obsessed again. This happens. When I fixate, I go full vinyl vampire, scavenger of the sacred. No stone unturned, no pressing unplayed. I dusted off that 1997 remastered box set—bright, shiny, surgically clean, like Cream in a tuxedo. It sounded good, sure, but something was missing. The dirt. The blood. The accident.

Then I stumble across this gnomic post on some half-dead internet forum, some digital alleyway reeking of geek musk and holy revelation: "The Dennis Drake Polydor CDs from the mid-’80s are the real deal." Boom. I was in. Hunted them down like a man chasing the ghost of the first high he ever got from a fuzz pedal.

And let me tell you—sweet Lucifer on a Les Paul—those discs are it. No compression, no noise reduction, no sterile remaster polish to bleach the guts outta the grooves. Just raw, wide-open sound. Like someone ripped the gauze off your ears after decades of listening through cotton balls soaked in battery acid. It’s like the band crawled out of your speakers and punched you in the chest. It's revelation, it's revulsion, it’s reawakening. Like you’re hearing Cream for the first time, not as a myth or a logo on a t-shirt, but as three lunatics locked in a room full of amps and rage and heroin and English teeth.

I scooped up all the Drake-mastered discs like a junkie finding a stash in a dead man’s coat. Got the deluxe Disraeli Gears—that paisley nightmare of a masterpiece—and the BBC Sessions, where they sound like they're trying to outplay the concept of time itself.

And man, how the hell did a band that imploded after barely two years leave behind this? This towering cathedral of noise and ego and brilliance? It's not a legacy—it's a damn monolith, Day-Glov and buzzing with the hum of a thousand bad decisions made right by sheer force of sound.

Okay SOO shes a axolotl named pearl,but her true form is a vampire octopus (fanmade species i made up for it to fit her personality) named bloodstone,despite not being a mimic octopus,she can shapeshift via a core on the back of her neck wich is covered by pearls pigtails

pearl: *yapping about her partner duo*

corsen and taraka (srry bad with names): *awkwardly looking at eachother since i hc they know who duo really is with a look that said 'whos gonna tell her?'

OH WOW THATS SO COOL!

Corsen wouldn't really know duo all that much so she'd be nodding and listening in! But yeah takara would definitely make a face as she knows her dad and Duo's plans in the current idw arc! ^^ how cool!!!
