You used to tell him that love in wartime was like tea brewed too long—bitter, bold, and far too honest.

Draco would laugh, lazy and smug, brushing your hair out of your eyes. “You’re so dramatic,” he’d say. “And you’re so blonde,” you’d bite back. He’d kiss you for that.

But that was before. Before your sides split like the seams of a too-tight dress. Before secrets clung to your skin tighter than his hands ever did. Before you both bled loyalty, just not to each other.

Now it’s smoke and static and moonlight over ash. Now it’s wands holstered and bullets loaded, names whispered in the dark like ghost stories. Now it’s you on a rooftop in Prague, wind slicing at your coat, waiting for the man with the silver hair and the target on his back.

You used to love him.

You still do.

God, that’s the worst part.

── .✦

He sees you before you see him. You always were dramatic, standing in the middle of the rooftop like you're Juliet begging fate for a final monologue. He wants to call out to you, say something dumb like, “You still owe me a chocolate frog, you know.” But this isn’t a duel. It’s a mission. One of you won’t walk away.

And Merlin help him—it can’t be you.

── .✦

“You look like hell,” you say, when he steps into your line of sight.

He smirks. “You still look like heaven.”

And then it’s silent. A quiet that thrums like a violin string too tight. Even the war holds its breath.

“I didn’t want it to end like this,” he says, voice brittle.

“I didn’t want it to end at all,” you whisper.

── .✦

You fire first. He dodges. He fires second. You don’t.

You hesitate. Just one heartbeat. One breath too long.

Because it’s him.

And he doesn’t miss.

── .✦

The bullet lodges just left of your heart. Irony, really.

You fall back, like a curtain drawn too fast.

His scream doesn’t sound like him. It sounds like something feral. Something dying.

── .✦

He drops the gun. Crawls to you. “Don’t,” he begs, pressing his hands to the wound, as if pressure and regret could rewind time.

“Draco,” you breathe, smiling, teeth red. “Guess I still owe you that frog, huh?”

“Shut up,” he whispers. “Don’t make this funny.”

“Can’t help it. Dying’s boring.”

He sobs. It’s ugly, broken. You’ve never seen him cry before. You wish you weren’t bleeding out just to witness it.

“I loved you,” he says.

“I still do,” you reply, voice thin as mist.

You reach for his cheek, and he leans into it like a boy—not a killer. Not a spy. Just a boy. Your boy.

“For what it’s worth,” you murmur, eyes fluttering, “you always kissed better than you lied.”

And then you’re gone.

── .✦

He stays there for hours. Cradling you. Talking to you. Begging.

When they find him, he's still holding you, whispering your name like a spell that never worked.

Draco Malfoy never speaks of the rooftop again.

But he sends one chocolate frog every year on your birthday—to nowhere.

── .✦

This was the war. You both knew it might end this way.

But love, real love, should’ve been stronger than strategy.

And Draco will never forgive himself for choosing the mission.

Over you.

── .✦

The manor is silent. It always is now.

Dust gathers where you once danced barefoot, humming some Muggle song he pretended to hate. The hearth hasn’t been lit since you died. It’s cold in every room, but not like winter. More like absence. More like rot.

Draco hasn’t stepped outside in weeks. Maybe months. Time folded in on itself the moment you took your last breath.

He can’t find your laugh in any of the echoes anymore.

── .✦

He writes the letter by candlelight. With the same quill you used to flick ink at him when he got too smug.

It smells like you—lavender and treason.

── .✦

"To You, Always—

You’d mock me for starting this like a letter to a lover in some tragic novel. You always said life was a bit of both—romance and ruin.

You were right.

Do you remember the first time you hexed me? Sixth year. I called your handwriting "charmingly unrefined." You nearly set my eyebrows on fire.

That was the moment I knew you’d undo me. And oh, love… you did.

I keep hearing your voice in the walls. I know it isn’t real, but I answer anyway. I tell you about the rain. How it sounds different now. How it hurts to watch it fall. I tell you I’m sorry. Every hour. Every breath.

But it’s not enough. Nothing ever will be.

You should’ve killed me on that roof. You would’ve done it clean. Quiet.

Instead, I live. And every second of it feels like being flayed from the inside.

You were the only thing in this world I wanted to protect. And I destroyed you.

Funny, isn’t it? The boy born to bring blood and legacy ends up mourning a girl who believed in none of it. You were fire. Rebellion. Laughter at funerals. And I was a boy in a cage, watching you burn brighter than any spell I ever cast.

I don’t want to forget your voice. So I’m coming to find it.

I’ll see you soon, love.

Save me a seat in the afterlife. And for Merlin’s sake, don’t hex me when I get there.

—D.M."

── .✦

They find him two days later. Slumped beneath your photograph. Wand in one hand. Letter in the other.

A single lily rests on his chest—your favorite. You once said it reminded you of softness that survived war.

He made sure it would.

── .✦

They bury him beside you. The letter tucked in his coat. No eulogy. No grand speech.

Just the truth, written in aching, smudged ink.

── .✦

And if the wind ever sounds like a girl laughing and a boy apologizing— No, you didn’t imagine it.

It’s just two ghosts, in love, still dancing through the wreckage of the war.

To the venting Anon.

It will be harsh to hear but this is the truth: Austin simply doesn't come across as sincere for someone who is not deep into the fandom. Compared to TC who seems always "on brand" and being himself ( love or hate this) Austin seems performative. For example, in the Actors on Actors video, he has these fake sound hummings, when he says "hmmm... exactly..." Sorry, but this is not seems honest, just an act. I do not like TC but he is never fake.

On the singing: TC sings all of the songs in the Dylan movie, AB doesn't sing all of the songs. Maybe he recorded all of it, but in the movie it's a mix. So there is a no question. Singing by yourself is a bigger achievement. Ramy Malek won an Oscar but he also got backlash for something similar, so since then, people judging harder this type of movies.

On the fame: being an actor and wanting to be famous is 2 different things and I don't like entitled fans who think they have a right to gain access or tell their fave to change profession. Margot Robbie doesn't have an insta, she deleted it and she is just fine and she is bigger star than Austin.

But the main problem is the first one. there is something in Austin that repels people if they are just ordinary moviegoers and not fans. He is like Henry Cavill who literally has no career anymore.

Okay, now see, what we're not going to do is have you, a Timmy Stan Anon (idc what you call yourself), come on to an Austin Butler fan Tumblr account (the blog name and pfp are pretty obvious) and proceed to just insult the man and not get checked for it.🤨

Second, I'll just add that I think it's very sad that people like you (who don't even know Austin), are just blindly following others online like sheep, and hopping on the "let's all hate on Austin Butler!" Train, instead of just thinking for yourself.

Honestly? I think a lot of the hate that Austin gets is not just because he's good-looking, or because of the Vanessa breakup (I've known plenty of actors to breakup with their gfs and they never received this amount of hate online), but also because so many girls/women online stan their favorite actors (like say Timothee), and they're threatened because Austin actually won two prestigious awards before Timothee Chalamet has, in half the time. I think some fans in some fandoms of famous actors are just upset that Austin (in their minds) seemed to come from out of nowhere, and shook things up a little bit, and now, their faves have someone else that they didn't expect to see coming competing in the big leagues right along with their faves. That (imo) is where most of the hatred online (especially from women) stems from. It's just jealousy and feeling threatened on behalf of their own faves if you ask me. Which, I'm not even sure why, because most of these actors don't even view themselves as competing with each other smh.

Anyway --- Before I go into this further, I have to say this:

**Disclaimer: I don't really like making too many comparisons when it comes to actors and comparing them to each other. It's just not really my thing, and it's kind of silly (imo), but for the sake of this post, I'll engage your comparisons.

It will be harsh to hear but this is the truth: Austin simply doesn't come across as sincere for someone who is not deep into the fandom. Compared to TC who seems always "on brand" and being himself ( love or hate this) Austin seems performative.

Umm first of all, Austin has NEVER been fake, EVER in his life. You can even look back to his old Tumblr posts and Tweets. He has always been who he is, which is a very sweet, kind, and down to earth guy. You (and some others on the internet) are the only ones calling him "fake", "pretentious", or "performative". 🙄 Those are your personal labels that you're putting on to him. Learn to know the difference. You don't even know him personally, yet you're putting negative labels on to him like you know him personally. 😒

Everyone who has ever worked closely with Austin has always had nothing but glowing things to say about him as a person, and has never ever called him "fake". From his co-stars on "The Carrie Diaries", his co-stars on "The Shannara Chronicles", his co-stars and even extras on set of "Elvis", to even his co-stars in Dune Part 2 (including Timmy, mind you), everyone has always said what a pleasure it is to be around him, and have never once called him "performative", or "fake". Not once. Not film crew, not interviewers who have interviewed him. NOBODY. Everyone (even directors) talk about how genuine and down to earth he is. Even that woman on the plane said just how "normal" he was and didn't seem like a celebrity at all. He's certainly never been called a "diva" before, unlike your precious Timothee Chalamet.😒

Even fans who have met him just briefly in person have always had wonderful things to say about him, and have never ever said he was fake. ☺️ If anything, they have said quite the opposite -- They've always said just how kind and genuine he is as a person. He's really someone who is attentive to you, listens, takes in what you're saying, and is very present and in the moment with you. ☺️ But yet, we're supposed to believe you, who doesn't even know the man, has never met him, and doesn't take into account what people who actually do know him have said about him? 🤨 Yea, okay.

For example, in the Actors on Actors video, he has these fake sound hummings, when he says "hmmm... exactly..." Sorry, but this is not seems honest, just an act.

Since when has saying "umm" or "hmmm" ever been seen as being "fake"?? Are you serious? 🥴

I do not like TC but he is never fake.

Uhhh actually, there are a lot of people who find Timothee fake. Some people find him (and his team) super calculated. There have even been rumors of him having diva behavior on set, which would negate the whole "wholesome good guy" image that he has curated for himself.

Could these articles/rumors be fake? Sure, they could be. But what I'm saying is that Austin hasn't even had anything of the sort like this come out about him. Yet, he's the one who's fake? 😒

Anyway, make of that what you will.

On the singing: TC sings all of the songs in the Dylan movie, AB doesn't sing all of the songs. Maybe he recorded all of it, but in the movie it's a mix. So there is a no question. Singing by yourself is a bigger achievement. Ramy Malek won an Oscar but he also got backlash for something similar, so since then, people judging harder this type of movies.

Excuse me, but please get your facts straight before making up stuff like this. First of all, Austin prepared to sing all of the songs in the "Elvis" biopic. He's a very thorough person and actor, so it's not something that he would have neglected.

He also sang all of the Elvis songs from the 1950s in the film because the older original Elvis songs were in such bad quality for a modern movie, that Baz simply had him sing all of the younger Elvis material. That included "Trouble", and everything prior to the Vegas scenes.

For the Vegas scenes, Baz shot the film with Austin actually singing live, and they blended Elvis' voice in some of the songs for the latter years of the film, but Austin is still singing. The decision to blend the voices was Baz's idea. Maybe he wanted to pay homage to the real late Elvis (who is dead btw -- Bob Dylan is not), and felt it was a nice way to show honor to the late singer.

But Austin can sing. He's been singing for years on TV shows. He also sang on SNL for Cecily's departure. The man can sing. It's not his fault if Baz wanted to blend the voices of the two singers in the latter Elvis years. That wasn't his fault.

He worked with a vocal coach and a movement coach and trained for a long time to be able to sing, move, and perform like Elvis. The man dedicated a lot of hard work and years to his craft for that film. So I don't really appreciate you trying to undermine his work.

But the main problem is the first one. there is something in Austin that repels people if they are just ordinary moviegoers and not fans.

No girl, that's just you and a few other bitter weirdos on the internet. 🙄 Real people (who can think for themselves) and who actually have met Austin, who know him, and who don't just follow the trends of whatever people are saying on the internet actually love Austin. Even those who aren't fans of Austin love him.

He is like Henry Cavill who literally has no career anymore.

No he's not. Girl, you lost all credibility with this statement alone. And what on earth does Henry Cavill have to do with anything? 🥴

Austin has like 4 projects lined up, has won a lot more prestigious awards than your Timothee, and directors love working with him. Not sure why you're comparing him to Henry Cavill (who just had a baby btw with his partner).

You may want to go back to the Timothee tumblr fan accounts, and please leave us Austin fans here alone. 😤 Thank you.

Note(s): Hi everyone!! I'm so nervous to post this. This is my FIRST Joel x reader fic and one of my first rare attempts at second person, first tense so I'm sorry if there are mistakes. I also rarely write smut! I wrote this as a vent piece and I hope you like it or it can help you. Enjoy and follow my main blog: @delliestattoo

The sound of the rain splattering against your living room window is nothing compared to the harshness of his tone. Joel’s yelling at you, finger raised and pointed with that same, sly smirk on his face; he knows what he’s doing, he’s making you weak.

And not in the good way.

You can feel tears threatening to spill over your waterline, fresh and hot and not at all helpful to the situation. You want to speak, you want to scream, you want to yell right back at him; but you find yourself completely mute, barely even able to process the words he’s throwing at you. He doesn’t get like this often - the first time was when you brought up Sarah the first time, and the only other time was when you threatened to leave him; but those times were both understandable now, sole misunderstandings that you had caused. 

This time, however, was honestly just stupid. You two had been arguing about where to go for dinner, and he called you indecisive, which your brain translated to immature and here you were. 

“J-Joel,” you whisper, though you know he can’t hear you. He’s still shouting, and you know you have to do something. You have to say something. You have to get out of this.

“Joel,” you say again, louder this time, “P-Please -” you stop yourself from continuing, bowing your head with a muffled sigh. You didn’t want to argue anymore, you didn’t want to fight. 

You just wanted him to stop yelling at you.

Silently, the tears begin to fall, and it quickly turns to broken sobbing, a hand covering your mouth to try and stay quiet. Quiet - which is what Joel is now, silent and staring at you while you try to compose yourself. You know he’s hating himself for the screaming, but you know you deserve it, and you think deep down he does, too.

“I’m s-sorry,” you manage to stutter, and you glance up at him, and that’s when you notice Joel has gone not only silent, but also still, his face completely changed from the moment before. You’re puzzled for a moment, unsure of how to proceed, when he walks towards you. 

On instinct, you flinch.

“Joel-?” It’s more of a question than a statement, because now you’re just confused, though your tense body relaxes underneath his touch, his calloused and rough hands reaching for your shoulders, fingers dragging down your arm, and despite being relaxed, you freeze. You don’t know what he’s doing, and all you can do is look up at him with unsure, teary eyes, as a few tears still fall.

“Oh, baby, -” Joel says then, and you blink, mouth suddenly dry with a sense of something else entirely. Suddenly, you’re not crying anymore. 

Everything’s fine. He’s talking to you. He’s looking at you and touching you and he has that sweet, thick southern accent - everything seems okay now; and you know it may only be for a moment, and you know you missed your medication this morning, but it’s okay now.

“Darlin’,” Joel begins, and you know this is about to be good, “Why’s my pretty girl cryin’ like that? Come on now, chin up for me,” he says, and you obey, raising your chin and wiping your tears. You have the sudden urge to call him daddy - the way he’s looking at you, the way he was yelling at you. It fits. It fits so well and so would he. 

“That’s my girl,” Joel praises, and you feel your mood shift, already having gone from upset to nonchalant; but now it’s something different, now it’s a yearning you know only the man in front of you can fulfill. 

“Joel-” you huff, biting your lip. You don’t know what to say to him to make him understand what you need now. 

What if he wasn’t interested? What if he didn’t want you? What if he was just trying to fix what he had started?

“What is it, pretty girl?” he whispers then, and you feel your core burn hot. You want to sit down, but there’s nowhere to go, nowhere but his arms. You feel mute again, silenced, but then Joel rubs your arms again and you’re fully there.

“Need you, daddy,” you mutter, and your pussy throbs with want, with need. You need him to kiss you, to put his mouth on your neck; and you want him to shove you against a wall, throw you around, praise and degrade you at once. He’s staring deep into your eyes, like he’s trying to decide whether he wants to give in, and you open your mouth to say something but…

You’re cut off by movement, his hands falling from your arms down to your hips, and fuck, fuck, you couldn’t take it anymore. 

“Goddamnit, Joel,” you curse, though you’re sure he knows you don’t mean anything by it. You grunt, moving backwards, and pull your blouse over the top of your head with ease. The remainder of your clothing consists of your black biker shorts and a black, lace bra that you know damn well Joel wouldn’t be able to take his eyes - or hands - off of. 

“Goddamn, you,” Joel grunts back, and just like you thought, his hands are immediately on you, fingers laced underneath the hem of your bra like he wants it off already. You smirk. The tears on your face have dried, and you no longer have bloodshot eyes, no, now they’re full of lust and longing that belongs to Joel and Joel only. “Need me already?” you ask teasingly, and you expect him to laugh, play it off like he usually does, but you’re met with a sudden force, throwing you up against the wall just like you had wanted. “Fuck, Joel,” you can’t help but moan, the force making your panties wet, heart skipping beats and core throbbing with a desperate need. “Joel,” you mutter, as you move to wrap your arms around his neck, “Please.”

He seems to understand what you want by the look on your face and the pleading sound to your begs, hands reaching around to undo your bra strap. You don’t have time for that - you move away from his hands, instead your body presses close against his and you can feel his cock hard in his jeans. “I wanna get you off,” you whisper, leaning close to his ear. Your hand moves down to cup his balls underneath the fabric and you give them a gentle squeeze, a gesture that was almost like asking for permission for you. Joel’s breath had already been heavy but now it had picked up, and his fingers were thumbing over your nipples, and you knew that was an okay.

You drop to your knees, not wasting any time with Joel’s belt. He helps you, and before he seems to know it your mouth is on his cock, lips wrapped tastefully around the tip as you bob your head back. His arm is hovering over your head, his hand pressed against the wall as he resists the urge to thrust his cock into your mouth; you know that’s what he’s thinking, because you’ve talked about it. 

And you want him to.

“Come on, daddy, fuck my mouth,” you say, as you pull away for a moment to spit. You take his cock whole, and Joel cries out, hips moving to fuck your mouth. Your eyes roll back in your head, mouth dripping with saliva and pre-cum as he fucks into you. Your panties have to be fucking soaked by now, you’re so needy, you’re grinding down into nothing. There’s no sound in the room except for the wet slapping sounds of Joel’s balls against your cheeks and you don’t mind it one bit, muffled and strangled heavy breaths coming from your end and rough, heavy grunts from Joel’s. 

He’s getting close, you can tell by the way he’s breathing now; you’d been together for so long you had gotten accustomed to every sound. “That’s enough,” you say, voice hoarse now, as you pull away from his cock, which still thrusts towards you even after the loss. He’s not saying anything, and you know he’s pissed, but you know that would just make him fuck you better.

“Come on, daddy,” you murmur, your legs moving to stand, “Come fuck me.”

The two of you manage to make it to the bed, but you don’t manage to make it much farther. Joel’s got his hands on you again, and you can see the remorse from earlier reflected in his eyes, but you see way more lust. He throws you down onto the mattress and you let out a soft sigh, body going pliant. This is what you wanted, what you seemed to have needed. You just needed a man to throw you around and fuck you right. Treat you right.

You don’t bother helping him with your pants. He makes quick work of ripping them off of you, revealing your matching black, lace panties, and the sound he makes upon sight of them is comparable to a wolf’s snarl. 

“Like what you see?” you ask, smirking as you position yourself for missionary - it was your favorite position, your go-to, and if you were being honest, you needed the honest connection right now. You needed to really feel him make love to you.

“‘Course I do, pretty girl,” Joel confirms, pulling his own shirt over his head. He’s completely naked now, and you feel overdressed. You shimmy your hips. “Take ‘em off me, daddy,” you purr, and Joel can’t resist you, diving for your cunt. You scream and fall back, a laugh falling from your lips as he drags your panties down to your ankles and then off fully. You can’t even take a breath before he’s got his mouth on you - and he’s eating you real good, tongue flicking up and down and swirling around your clit in perfect motions. It’s not often he does this, either; Joel never really seems to enjoy it, but right now he’s all in. You’re left wondering if he’s even breathing while his tongue attacks your pussy. Your back arches and you feel an orgasm approaching, and it’s coming up fast, your breathing now labored and your hips bucking up into his mouth for more, more friction, more anything.

You need his cock. You need it deep, nestled inside of you, holding you together.

“J-Joel,” you pant, a hand reaching down for his hair. You try to pull him off of you, but Joel only presses his face deeper into your cunt, leaving you breathless and out of energy. Your core is burning hot, ready to cum, and you need to. You need to release. You need it so bad.

“Fuck, fuck - gonna cum,” you manage to mutter, pulling at his hair again. Joel’s lips wrap around your clit and he sucks, and you scream, your orgasm rippling through you at the speed of lightning. Joel doesn’t pull away, either; he helps you through it, licking your folds gently as you try and breathe, cunt twitching underneath his tongue. You still want his cock, more than anything now, and you feel tears welling up in your eyes again as he continues to stimulate you.

“Joel… p-please,” you whisper pleadingly, with another tug, “Please.” He pulls away then, looking up at you, and you swear you could see the devil in his eyes, he looked that sinful. His hair was messy, his chin dripping with your juices and lips red and puffy. You almost wanted to grab your phone and snap a photo, but you know he’d kill you.

The both of you take a minute to just breathe. Joel reaches to wipe his mouth before kissing you but you stop him and pull him forward anyways, wanting to taste yourself. “Need you to fuck me,” you whisper against his lips, the sickly sweet taste covering your tongue, “Need it, baby. Need you.”

Joel pulls away, only to look you in the eyes. “Need me that bad, darlin’?” 

You nod in desperation. Your eyes are filled with tears. All Joel does is let out a chuckle, and then he pushes you back down into the mattress. “Alright,” he mutters, “be a good girl for me and stay there, alright? Gonna fuck you nice and right,” he says, and you go pliant once again, body completely relaxed on the mattress. Your juices are flowing out of you and soaking the sheets but neither of you seem to care. They can always be washed.

Once you’re fully relaxed and ready, Joel climbs on top of you, and you instantly wrap your arms around him to bring him closer, his cock rubbing against the folds of your cunt. “Fuck,” the both of you say in unison, and then you both laugh a little, too. You’re always glad you can laugh with Joel in moments like these, serious or not. 

“That’s my girl,” Joel praises, his breath coming to a halt as he presses his cock into you slowly. The both of you adjust for a moment, and then you’re grabbing at any part of him you can reach. “Fuck me,” you beg, “Please, Joel. Fuck me.”

He obliges quickly, shifting his weight to his hands to begin thrusting his cock into you. It’s a quick pace, balls slapping against your thighs every other second, and you feel so fucking full. 

“Feels good,” you moan, “Feels - feels f-full, Joel.”

“Yeah? Fuck, darlin’, takin’ my cock so good,” Joel praises in return, and you feel your core start to heat up again and your heart swell. You’re going to cum again, and you’re probably going to do it quickly. 

“Harder,” you huff, fingers digging deep into Joel’s shoulders. He grunts at the pain but says nothing, allowing you to take hold of him. If anything, it spurs him on to fuck you harder. “Harder,” you repeat, throwing your head back, “I’m gonna fuck - I’m gonna fucking cum,” you warn him, moving your hand to reach down and rub at your clit quickly. You swirl your finger around the little sphere and cry out in pleasure, bucking your hips up to meet Joel’s pace. “Fuck, fuck, fuck…” you cry, breathing strangled, and Joel didn’t even have his hands on your throat.

“Yeah? Come on, darlin’,” Joel pants, his own orgasm approaching, though his focus remained on you, “Come for me. Come for me, pretty girl. Come on this fucking cock.”

He doesn’t have to say it twice - only once and you’re crying out again, overwhelming pleasure taking over your whole body. You’re trembling underneath him as you cum, fingers digging deep into his shoulder, so hard it could possibly draw blood; and despite the pain, Joel enjoys it, and it floods his own orgasm through him, streams of his seed spurting into your pussy. You can feel him filling you up and it feels better than anything you could ever imagine, and you’re way too dreary now to care there was no condom.

“Did so good,” Joel praises, as he pulls his cock out of you, and you whine at the sudden loss. You find yourself reaching for him, but he’s already shifting to move off of the bed. “Where - where are you going?” you whisper, sadness taking hold of your voice; was he leaving?

“Nowhere, my sweet girl,” Joel whispers then, leaning down to press a kiss to your forehead, “Gonna get a towel, clean you up, ‘n we can lay together. Okay, baby?”

You can feel your eyes closing from exhaustion; between the fight and sex, you were beat. “Okay,” you whisper quietly, “Baby.”

HS^2 bloggin’ mainline 2024-08-04

(Previous post - current page 440)

Breaktime's over, it's about time to continue! Expect me to take a handful of days between each posting-day like this just to pace myself, and have time for fun video games and other such. But I've been really enjoying finally reading more HS2 too, especially seeing such hopeful stuff like this last pair of pages really hitting home on the optimism! Let's get back to it.

Meanwhile...

Wait did we SEE her keel back over like this? Alt!Callie in this younger/teenage corpse of Jade Harley's body I mean? When did that happen? *thumbs back through old pages...* Let's see here... my browser still glitches the fuck out seizureways at the few pages that were Blacked Out, so i'll use a backup browser for those... no, further back... oh wow I forgot Aradia got such a cool Calliope-supporting outfit to show off she's on their side, literally zero memory of that and that's some FINE drip...

Oh shit wait, so it happened back over here??? (289/290)

--I figured back then she'd gotten a snap headache because of having to abandon possessing Jade's MAIN body in the struggle Alt!Calliope had with Jade's consciousness culminating around page 168, but these cuts are all so far apart-- and being knocked out of the other Jade's body shouldn't have knocked her out of this CORPSE. So is somethign entirely NEW going on that has to do perhaps with Dirk Strider's plans to maintain control of the narrative when the other kids arrive there?? Hmmm.

Anyway now I know where that bonus panel I'd accidentally glimpsed with "god-tier bodies don't decompose right" that I mentioned last blogging session came from. But why the fuck?

==>

Gosh I've missed seeing panels like this.

Wait, why are we cutting to CANDY JOHN like that's relevant here? Wasn't he in Roxy's secret lab last we saw him? Does THAT have something to do with this?! Oh shit.

(John: Investigate noise.)

Following Roxy's instructions, you proceed in the direction of the noise to go and meet up with your old friends. You approach where you thought you heard them, but to your surprise you hear an unfamiliar voice grumbling something incoherent.

JOHN: uhhh, rose? jade? JOHN: ... kanaya?

Hm? What was going on upstairs again, Karkat met up with the other liberators right? Okay let me not be so lazy and go back and check again...

Excuse me for a second, I'm going backwards to review and post some older HS2 stuff for a bit:

No they left, then John came from his destroyed old house to his and Roxy's NOT-old house, then they transportalized downstairs to the secret lab buried "hella underground" not directly under the house, where Calliope is wearing... suspiciously the EXACT new outfit that Aradia is wearing, and gives her hints that she enjoys all sorts of alternate stories like watching Roxy be in a relationship with John here in Candy instead of with herself in Meat, and added fuel to our obvious theory suspicions that Meat Alive Calliope is the author-narrator shaping the (Candy) timeline with her wall drawings and Muse of Space powers, and that they are... standing in the location in their reality that corresponds to the exact center of the singularity / black hole they're trying to stabilize? I'd forgotten about that... and then Calliope told John that alt!Calliope and Aradia and such had broken out of the black hole's event horizon for their mission, while Calliope explained that (Candy)'s timeline is so WEIRD because they've been disconnected a little TOO much from the canon of reality, like a fanwork that strays a little too far from the source material, so they need to stabilize it somehow AND NEED VRISKA (to either steal some relevance back from Canon or to get swapped there with something else or, something else we might have theorized?) but I had plumb forgotten that they SPECIFICALLY say that for their plans to work they needed John to leave and do something:

ROXY: this is finally where u come in jegbert ROXY: we gots quests for yous CALLIOPE: hee hee, yes. CALLIOPE: or *a* quest, to be specific. JOHN: oh boy!

ROXY: i mean yeah ur gonna obvs facilitate it in a sense ROXY: but only by going and busting the person who can actually help us outta normal earth jail CALLIOPE: we need yoU to free vriska from the clUtches of oUr misgUided friend jane, and bring her here, to the singUlarity. ROXY: weve been calling it the plot point CALLIOPE: yes, the plot point is a key part of oUr plan. CALLIOPE: as far as we have been able to sUrmise, the only remaining method for escaping oUr grim confinement depends on leveraging the UniqUe properties of this location to create an event of sUch catalcysmic proportions that it simply cannot be contained within the black hole any more. CALLIOPE: something SO dramatic, so hyper-relevant, that it becomes ontologically impossible for anyone to ignore it. CALLIOPE: for that, we need an individUal of sUfficient narrative cloUt, so to speak.

Right, Vriska's constant focus on making herself one of the most relevant characters to Canon and her powerset actually making her perfect TO do that as a Thief of Light (relevance/importance) makes that a good plan. And I fully expected one possibility was that they somehow allow her to break through to the Canon Meat timeline and both (1) influence it some way, and (2) get to a place where she could eventually reunite with Terezi Pyrope finally instead of just having left her a parting message, which may or may not happen if Meat Terezi is going to focus possibly a bit more on her relationship with John(June) once somehow resurrected or such but would definitely be amazing to have them reunited when Terezi spent SO MUCH TIME looking for her that she wasn't even part of the (Candy) timeline of events? Enough re-theorizing let me keep re-reading-- And... oh right,

CALLIOPE: and to liberate her, who better than the embodiment of the aspect of freedom itself?

I'm sure I was happy as hell to see that explicitly spelled out in canon for once instead of implied, because it may have been obvious to those of you who follow theoryblogs but one of the big reasons I'm glad to see these things made more explicit out in HS^2 is so even casual readers can pick up that these aspects always had these additional more important purposes that line up with all the events that happened in the past of the original comic.

But anyway. John's about to go on his bust-Vriska-out-of-prison quest:

And it's not like he has other plans. He may as well do this! It's at least going to get him involved in things again, if nothing else. He turns to go, and then hears a sound. It's the sound of feet and knocking on doors, echoed through stone and digital static.

And then,

JOHN: did you hear that? ROXY: wha ROXY: oh yeah uh ROXY: i may have messaged rose and kan and jade to check on them too ROXY: so its prob onea them showin up ROXY: they don't need to know bout all this tho ROXY: we got time to chat with them b4 u go get vriska JOHN: i'll go stall em. ROXY: thx babe ROXY: oh is it 2 soon for that joke or JOHN: no, weirdly enough, that one's fine. ROXY: oh good ok see u up there soon!

And that's where we left off-- wasn't it their kids' team who got back into their house or something? Eh I'm done looking, now I at least know there was A NOISE that was playing through the monitors from the topside of their house above the teleporter that he's running to intercept.

Okay, past catch-up over. Back to present liveblogging. Looks like this isn't Rose and Kanaya like John expects, from the sound of it-- but the way John's running down a hallway makes it look like this is INSIDE OF THE LAB STILL, so the question is who is down here or CAME down here or...

(==>)

Oh, Sollux is helping Roxy and Calliope out with their project, playing on Roxy's pink retro consoles. That shouldn't actually be too shocking should it.

Wait, how is he playing video games if he's BLIND? Robo-eyes? It's gotta be robo-eyes.

(==>)

Stare

(==>)

Sandwich stare

(==>)

SOLLUX: eating a sandwich.

Brilliant. And yeah he lives here-- but he's actually LOOKING at stuff isn't he, with eyes of some sort? Even though he's still using the 0 quirk? Tell us what's up with that!

(==>)

John stop thinking this is a relationship between Sollux and Roxy, your divorcee/ex. Unless it is, which would be pretty cool honestly.

(==>)

SOLLUX: y0u w0rried im m0ving in 0n y0ur ex? JOHN: ...hmm. SOLLUX: ... JOHN: hm. hmm. hm. JOHN: hm? HMMMM. SOLLUX: what is g0ing 0n here. JOHN: sorry, i had an answer but then i started actually considering it. JOHN: am i jealous? JOHN: hmmm... SOLLUX: if i tell y0u straight up n0 we arent h00king up will y0u st0p? JOHN: ...maybe? SOLLUX: g0ddammit.

I'm really enjoying all this for some reason.

JOHN: are you still hanging out with that creepy alive girl? SOLLUX: SOLLUX: 0n a spiritual level. JOHN: cool! JOHN: is ... she also dating roxy? SOLLUX: what? SOLLUX: idk.

I'm pretty sure I get excited at the idea of literally ANY relationship potentially happening between all these characters I love.

(==>)

Oh no John is offloading his personal problems on him in longform conversation. He doesn't want that! XD

JOHN: and it only changed because i started talking to people again. SOLLUX: (i did this t0 myself why did i ask) JOHN: i guess in gamer terms it's the same as screwing yourself over by not checking every non playable character dialogue box. JOHN: any one of them could have the clues you need.

Feels kind of like we're doing the thing from that Steven Universe: Future episode where Steven is critically upset that important things happened in the lives of his friends offscreen somewhere he wasn't around to be aware of it, when realistically as a person you can't keep up with everything, especially not John who kept to himself in a slump for a decade as he puts it in some of the conversation I'm not fully requoting.

Okay Sollux dunks on John a bit, possibly deservedly... and to some extent, in a misogynist gamer phrasing typical to Sollux, John's lack of agency? Which I think would improve somewhat once the gender issues Roxy alluded to both upstairs and in the lab with him are resolved in part, because he can't be FULLY comfortable swept up in a relationship while he's still considering herself "he"...

SOLLUX: i have n0t been able t0 play this game the wh0le time because s0me0ne was talking 0ver the s0und. JOHN: oh! JOHN: sorry : (

Oh he's been using sound-only and audio assistance to play the game like a speedrunner almost instead of seeing it. That explains that.

(==>)

I don't quite understand the shape of that thing to the right of Sollux's head, like there's some sort of watermark over it WAIT THAT'S A DOOM SYMBOL WATERMARK TAKING UP MOST OF THE FRAME WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON HERE

SOLLUX: w0rds d0nt mean much. SOLLUX: 0nly acti0ns.

(This is a perfect sort of thing someone for someone on the Life/Doom spectrum to say, which would be MUCH MUCH HARDER for someone on the Light/Void spectrum to say or especially a Light player. Doom being about the consequences of one's actions in part and all.) Is he about to use some Mage of Doom powers visibly onscreen?

(==>)

Ohhh. So he was making a dramatic Doom Prophecy that will matter to John's choices in the future if he heeds the right lessons, while also hinting toward the nature of Doom itself as I covered. Got it. That's fun! Also it was a pink cat pillow behind his head, that's the thing I was having so much trouble seeing.

(==>)

SOLLUX: WAIT. JOHN: !

He's gonna ask him to pass him a soda from across the room or something.

(==>)

SOLLUX: change my game f0r me.

This is so cute.

(Be Vrissy.)

GODDAMNIT JAILBREAK AGAIN LOL

Vriska the elder has decided to take it upon herself to test if you measure up to the arduous task of being a Vriska. For your first test: find a way to bust out of this dump. What will you do?

Stop judging her on your stupid Vriska standards, Vriska! I hope the way this plays out eventually plays straight into the idea that this very-Vriska-like-but-not-quite-Vriska individual has her own unique strengths. I'm not sure I mentioned it earlier, but when I said that it's possible that Vrissy is a Mind player, I'm actually really excited to see the comic demonstrate that (regardless of whether or not Vrissy is or isn't completely genetically identical to Vriska) because not only would it be a good lesson for the original Vriska that Vrissy has her own value, it's also a great Classpect demonstration of how the difference in their characters and action styles amounts to a different effect on reality in the form of a Hero Title that is different...

...and in fact now that I think about it, even though it may have rubbed me just slightly wrong somewhere inside that Vrissy and Vriska could have different Hero Titles even if they WERE genetically identical, I'm actually gonna turn around and say I've decided I love that, because if Sburb gives the genetically identical Vrissy a different title and she unlocks a different powerset purely because of the unique combination of nature *AND* nurture that resulted in her, that would emphasize much more properly that Sburb isn't FORCING or pigeonholing you into a Hero Title that doesn't suit you, it really is reading into your future and soul to tell you THE MOST EFFECTIVE WAY you PERSONALLY would find right to influence reality around you. That makes the lesson of its title assignment and the answer to the Ultimate Riddle that I've long discussed a STRONGER answer, not a weaker one.

And I'm encouraged by the very first thing Vrissy tries being something the original Vriska would NEVER have tried first, which Vriska over here probably is gonna be snide/discouraging about:

(Vrissy: Call for help.)

Have we SEEN their chumhandles before? I feel like we've seen Vrissy's before at least-- "adamantGriftress" is an awesome chumhandle for her, and I know for SURE I've already seen thespiansGlamor as Harry Anderson's. Who the fuck is glutinousGymnast, is that Yiffy's handle, and what does glutinous mean again?!?? (I had to google it just in case, it's New Tavros's handle. Glutinous is "like glue in texture; sticky.", often referring to sticky rice or baking dough. Ew. Stickiness sort of implies the opposite of Breath doesn't it...? And he's a gymnast?)

Now. Who the fuck is "recidivousGainsayer"? Vrissy didn't know Yiffy existed, so she wouldn't have her in her phone already unless they'd been internet friends without knowing each other personally, which would be... kinda sweet really. And Yiffy is certainly rebellious, but she seems more recalcitrant than recidivous, though I can't rule it out, especially since she's basically grown up at a boarding school; a quick google to see if we'd seen the chumhandle before also highlighted someone commenting that "RG" doesn't follow the ACGT DNA pattern, and even if you switch to RNA it just swaps the T with a U. Could be that this is a chumhandle of one of the characters we had been following over in the Bonus Comics or something.

You're pretty sure that would be an automatic fail on Vriska's test. But even if it wasn't, it isn't like you could message anyone; not anyone worth talking to anyway. There's no service in here, the only bars you've got are the ones on the windows.

Yeah, Vrissy at least knows Vriska well enough to know what she'd approve and disapprove of most broadly, unfortunately. I hope she comes to understand how Vriska should really not be her role model.

Oh not this again--

(Vrissy: Get key.)

Vriska drew this shitty key on the floor "juuuuuuuust in case you need a reminder of what you should be working towards ::::)."

Vriska, you asshole!

(Vrissy: Try the door.)

You fruitlessly pull on the bars. Vriska says it looks like it's still locked. Yeah???????? No shit, you tell her. You're just trying to see if you can get a guard's attention. She says ooooooooh that's a good idea.

If you don't keep complimenting her I'm going to be very cross with you, Vriska.

Hm, it'd be really fitting and interesting if Vrissy Mindgames her way out of this one by putting on a façade of distress and convincing the guard to barge in, maybe saying Vriska's escaped or such.

(Vrissy: Get a guard's attention.)

One of those guards Jane intentionally had all dress like Dave to taunt Jane about Dave's death or just make them harder for her and Rose to stomach fighting, right.

Maybe you should use some of your SICKNASTY BRAIN EXPLOITABLES on this jabroni.

How much practice does she have with her psychic powers? All Aranea was able to do with Cerulean psychics on humans was get a vague sense of the emotions of people around her toward her like she always does, and Vriska WAS able to put a human to sleep or wake them in another universe but only when trying so hard that her Light symbol flashed in her eye, emphasizing that a Cerulean troll who WASN'T using the powers of a God-Tier Thief of Light wouldn't necessarily be able to do the same to a human. Stealing wakefulness or stealing through wakefulness, wakefulness being a part of Agency and thus Light, where Void is associated with sleep and dreams, et cetera. (Vriska put people (like Jade D:) to sleep FAR FAR MORE OFTEN than she woke them up, and when she woke John that one time it could have been considered "stealing THROUGH Light" because it deprived him of an opportunity in his dreams to meet his Dad as his dreamself just to give Vriska the selfish opportunity to speak with him at the exact time she'd wanted to speak with him.)

Also, if Vrissy DOES refer to her Cerulean mind powers as "sicknasty BRAIN exploitables" that does put Mind more in mind than usual... and exploitables could just be flavor or it COULD be a reference to EXPLOIT, the theoretical Knight/Page action verb?! --Nah that's probably a stretch.

(Vrissy: Use your Sicknasty Brain Exploitables.)

You apply the focused totality of your psychic power into this douchebag's cranium. Frustratingly, it looks like this guy is resisting your psychic enthrallment so he can get at that donut. Other than occasionally making Tavros dance when he's being boring, you honestly don't do this much.

Holy shit, if she could make New Tavros DANCE, this actually means that Vrissy has more control over human minds than Vriska ever had?!? That or New Tavros is uniquely impressionable, which is ALSO a possibility; the original comic itself emphasized that the "impressiona8le" were more vulnerable to her abilities... those who had less control or agency over themselves.

Also, Vriska had only just met her first humans when her psychic talents were limited to making them sleep-- Vrissy grew up alongside other humans, and that might just be enough for her to understand their minds enough to do some occasional manipulation.

Your mom is always like, "You Need To Listen To Me Vriska Its Important To Keep These Skills Honed In Case Shit Gets Real", but shit so rarely if ever gets real so mom should get OFF your CASE!!!!!!!! Until now, you guess. Wow do you hate realizing your mom was right about shit. ANYWAYS, LAY OFF THE FUCKING DONUTS AND GET OVER HERE ASSHOLE!!!!!!!!

On the one hand, it's unsurprising that Vrissy didn't keep her talents honed for battle or anything, and wouldn't have invested nearly as much energy into exploiting people with psychic powers as Vriska's twisted childhood forced her to; but on the other hand, like I said, this is STILL a bit more direct influence over humans than Vriska ever had, even if it's not working right now!

(==>)

Hell yeah!!!!!!!!

HOLY SHIT SHE ACTUALLY OUTCLASSED ORIGINAL VRISKA IN CONTROLLING A HUMAN MIND.

Is Vriska going to feel jealous?! Holy shit?!?? Or is this old hat for her now and she's gonna say she could do it all along, or a retcon along those lines or-- gosh just PLEASE I WANNA SEE VRISKA JEALOUS AS FUCK OF VRISSY'S PSYCHIC TALENTS PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HAVE ORIGINAL VRISKA GO "WHOA HOW DID YOU DO THAT"

(Vriskas: Exit the cell.)

Damn that felt good. After locking up the guard you turn to Vriska and ask her what next. Vriska says that now it's time to fuck some shit up. You like the sound of that. You ask her if there's any specific shit or place she wants to go fuck up. She says you'll just walk around until you land somewhere cool. You both laugh. You ask her what her real plan is. She keeps laughing as she walks away.

That's definitely her real plan. But anyway-- UGH, missed opportunity here. I guess we're just supposed to take it as a given that if original Vriska had had enough time, or grown up more, she could do the same thing to impressionable-enough humans as she did to trolls too, or the like.

(==>)

ALARMS BLARING, GUARDS RUNNING-- yeah they didn't cause this, this is some other assault on the Jail, right?

Okay, that's a lot of goons. You suggest to Vriska that you should go the other direction. Vriska says nah this is definitely where we wanna be. She says between the two of you, you've probably got enough luck to take this whole place off the map if you really wanted. You ask her what the fuck she means by that. She says you know like with your Thief of Light powers. You tell her you don't have anything like that. She says huh, weird!

VRISKA WHY THE FUCK WOULD IT BE WEIRD, VRISSY DIDN'T PLAY THE GAME OR GO GOD-TIER, YOU DIDN'T KNOW YOU HAD LUCK-STEALING POWERS UNTIL YOU PLAYED THE GAME!!!

Wait, let's back up a sec.

Vriska is smart enough to know that you CAN tap into your Hero Title powers even if you're not someone who's hit God-Tier. As a gleaner of deep lore about the game, Vriska ALSO would put together that the powers you get in the game are inherent to you even before you PLAY the game if you're skilled enough or high up on your echeladder enough to access them, so even if she never Stole Light directly before she played Sgrub, she technically COULD have. Maybe she figures Vrissy, as a coincidental genetically identical alt-version of her, should have access to the same powers just by virtue of having the same genes and training from her Seer of Light Mom knowing she'd have that potential in her genetically, OR, hear me out--

Vriska has already let us know that she's PLANNING ON STARTING A NEW GAME SESSION which we all figure will include Vrissy and the other kids as the players, and Vriska probably figures those kids will be the players too!

So, and I know this is some 3D-chess assumption-maneuvering here and I might be way off base, just taking so much from this single exchange...

...My guess is that Vriska thinks Vrissy ought to ALREADY HAVE inherent Thief of Light powers deep inside her and untapped, because she thinks Vrissy is going to be a PLAYER and thus ALWAYS WOULD gain her powers! Powers which she, of course, would ASSUME would match hers given their genetic similarity-- she would ASSUME Vrissy would also be a Thief of Light.

Except that none of the way Vrissy has actually behaved has resembled a Thief of Light much at all, and Hero Titles are inherent to your PERSONALITY and its method of action of influencing reality around you... and we already have background hinting that matches MUCH closer to her character and her behavior/actions in dialogue with others that she may be a Mind player.

Vriska didn't scold Vrissy for not having tried hard enough to develop the Thief of Light abilities she ASSUMED were inherent to Vrissy. She instead seems confused that she's never manifested any, and said "huh, weird!". Despite the knots in her psychology, both Vriska's smarts and her hero title are likely hinting to her that there might be some flaw in her assumptions here-- something that's keeping this from being a sarcastic scolding and instead telling her something isn't right about the knowledge she thought she had at hand.

(==>)

Vriska says that's perfectly fine as she always prefers a challenge. Vriska Serket, the daring Thief of Light and her imitation kid Vriska sidekick against countless foes. Marquise Spinneret Mindfang leading her Neophyte Bluehair, it's a tale for th- w8 w8 hold the fuck up. You ask her what the fuck does she mean "imitation.

Of course, just because Vriska isn't going to be an asshole in that PARTICULAR direction was never any assurance that Vriska wasn't going to be an asshole. She still views (Vrissy) as the less important version of the original her, and she's still going to frame everything in that light because of course she would, it's still in her nature and she still hasn't fully learned her lesson yet.

(==>)

I'm at the image limit so I'm gonna hold off on posting Vriska's hilariously condescending greasy expression and Vrissy squinting hilariously absolutely having fucking none of it:

Vriska says to not let it get to you, but she's pretty much figured out that this whoooooooole timeline is phony. You know, inauthentic. Fake. Bogus even. She says it's somehow the off brand equivalent of a universe and she really hopes you kept the receipt. You assure her that both you and this timeline are in fact, real as shit. She doesn't seem convinced. She says it's mostly from the little things she's noticed. You ask like what, she's only been on this planet for like a day and a half. She gestures vaguely and tells you to give her a boost so she can reach that ventilation shaft.

Yeah, the way this version of reality isn't as tethered to Canon means Vriska isn't going to take it seriously-- she shares Dirk's view of the (Candy) timeline in that regard, really. And they BOTH are going to receive their comeuppance and learn their lesson.

Phew-- that image limit was a good sign, I was already hitting the limits of my energy for the day, that was hours of liveblogging and typing. I guess we'll leave off here until another day! As I said at the outset, I'm still going to be pacing myself and only doing liveblogging every few days like I mentioned, but that doesn't mean I'm not VERY MUCH enjoying this and very looking forward to where it's going. If I weren't liveblogging, I'd get there a lot faster, I assure you, but then you wouldn't get to see me go off on random Classpect tangents about stuff you already guessed! :D

See you in a few days!

"i-it's not like i like you or anything but we're FRIENDS NOW. youre my friend. BUT ID STILL LEAVE YOU THE MOMENT THIS COMPANY FAILS OKAY ITS NOTHING PERSONAL" and proceeds to like clean up corpses for this guy on the down low. (Otto bdsm post)

I just find that last part so funny to compare pride if Otto with. Pride If "Otto was forced into destroying the kingdom for Subaru" vs Envy If "Otto was stopped from destroying the empire for Subaru" I'd love for those two to be able to talk.

haah i love how you quoted my own otto bdsm post... HAH (it is once again funny to me that ive opened pandoras box on this blog man........ now i get bdsm asks.... literally a dream come true and none of my mutuals will let me live it down BHAHA)

anyway!!! yeah yeah pride if otto vs envy otto are soo soo funny to compare <3 pfft i think ive seen you around in the comment section of my pride otto multichapter fic (ty once again for the nice comments and cool asks :O !!) but no yeah like pride and main otto are really funny. but the parallels too are super interesting..... you summarized them really well pfft.

like.... the way pride otto is Forced to do these things for pridebaru. like of course pride otto barely gets any screentime but theres stuff implied yknow? like he has to meet with subaru often, hes the messenger boy of sorts between subaru and russell fellow, otto also delivers the poison that kills julius, otto also dies somehow off screen before the climax of pride if.... and then main otto over here Choosing repeatedly to follow subaru and die for subaru and do all these sorts of things for subaru HAH - the contrast is really really strong!!

like of course wrath if otto is also a debt slave like pride if otto, but pride if otto's his own flavor of unique just bc hes forced to stay in proximity to subaru when he either may not want to or he feels similar to subaru (who goes "maybe in another life we couldve made good friends, but this Isnt that life")!! seeing how jaded and empty pride if otto is is super fascinating, bc you can kind of see the origins of it in main otto's tendency for cynicism and ruthlessness !!

but also on another level i feel like pride otto would be soooo confused and disgusted hearing about main otto. pride otto might be out here like "so not only are you friends with this guy but youre his boytoy too???? lmfao you loser" HAH

but yeah i think itd be fun for them to meet. pride if otto, the otto who never made friends and only learned to harden his heart and be forced to be an accomplice to horrible crimes...... main otto, the otto who made friends and is so so painfully devoted but it drives him to do drastic things some times.... crimes in the name of love versus being forced to assist in it.... like main otto learned how to make friends, learned the power of friendship with other people, but his loyalty is "poisoning" him while pride otto supplied the poison that kills julius...... ough......... and pride otto dies at the end...... all alone.... poisoned by other people, poisoned by what he had to do.....

but also i think my favorite bit of pride otto trivia is that word of god thing that pride otto took advantage of the fire and went to go kill russell fellow before he died.... specifically to avenge frufoo, his ground dragon.... like. ough. pain. absolute pain. pride ottos last act was to kill his main abuser??? to avenge his one and only friend????? im gonna bawl my eyes out HAHHA. but it seems that the power of friendship may have briefly won for a second there.... :,))) like im sure ottos most definitely killing russell fellow also bc thats Literally the guy that enslaved him but - the way its specifically noted that ottos main reason was Frufoo. im sobbing on the floor.

anyway i completely forgot where i was going with this but in conclusion pride otto is such a guy. 20 seconds of screentime??? dude stomped over my heart in 20 seconds. and if he met main otto i think he'd either go "wtf is wrong with you why would you do all of this for subaru??? him??? that CLOWN???? why???" or pride otto would wanna strangle main otto for being so lucky HAH. pride otto learns frufoo is still alive and well in main route and pride otto instantly launches himself at main otto like a feral cat -

[tonydaddingham]

ok it's not actually as epic✨ as i thought it would be but here is my episode-title prediction but it's very rough and in note form and no doubt is all over the place and pls feel free to discuss in the replies and ill amend accordingly,,, PLUS i need to go through it again in more detail cross referencing my sideburn theory bc some things might actually belong in other episodes and yeah im exhausted from the sheer speed at which i pulled this together fucking enJOY

(note: now contains mention of the leak, proceed w caution)

1. THE ARRIVAL

main storyline summary:

OKAY SO LETS START with this article on mr g's blog - scroll to the last two paragraphs - potentially see pre-fall heaven or the immediate moments before/after the fall which when you consider the opening credits begin with crowley climbing out of the pit/aziraphale descending from heaven, AND the BEAUTIFUL (this isn't being discussed enough imo) fall sequence in the hillywood parody, im tentatively suggesting that we might have a cold open of the fall

✨✨MURIEL PERSPECTIVE ON THE FALL?????✨✨

sosososo in the trailer obvs crowley and muriel are jn heaven and muriel says "you're a demon!!! // im going to get into so much trouble!!!" so WHAT IF DURING THE FALL THEY SMUGGLED CROWLEY OUT OF HEAVEN TO AVOID THE CONFLICT???? and crowley took like the back staircase down so he didn't fall so violently and got to keep his wings and *GUNSHOT* ok so im only like maybe 5% certain it's a flashback after ive rewatched that bit of the trailer oooh maybe 26 times but sTILL imaGINE yeah don't think this anymore, send me an ask if you want to know why bc i cba to write a post explaining

and then presumably a segue? into the first few events ive listed in this post about the start of the second coming idk it might actually be a flashback in another episode hmm yeah actually that seems more likely but anyway

then - present day, gabriel arrives on earth, lost memory/human, "something terrible" in the box that he was meant to deliver to aziraphale (?) that going by that second coming (SC) post i think literally contains jesus

ok update after the gumshoe az pics: so if gabriel is connected to the pub, and by the extension the jukebox, it must be the record that arrives in the box with the address attached, and aziraphale starts looking into it from there????? idk see ep 2

crowley gets evicted, then crowley and shax interaction in the park

presumably an introduction to maggie and nina, plus the "naked man friend" clip

discovery of gabriel at the bookshop, and ensuing argument leading to crowley summoning lightning, and the boys going no contact sob

2. THE CLUE

main storyline summary:

*edit because my draft didn't save properly and ive only just noticed - believe that this ep has the job minisode

SO following the newest pic release of crowley and aziraphale and the record, which ive gone off about here, i think that the skip doesn't quite happen yet BUT aziraphale obvs has the record which i think god has sent him as a clue and then goes to find crowley to talk about it ✨A cLuE✨ but crowley tells him to fuck off

also crowley is a bartender

THEN we have a present-day time skip, gabriel being a very good assistant in the shop

again after the SC theory i think that gabriel lost the box and instead god somehow sends aziraphale the record and address as a clue

aziraphale (unsure of the genesis here) starts researching the jukebox and the everyday song, presumably buys the record from maggie

aziraphale in the bookshop, looking at the jukebox articles, crowley storms in, "im back" see below!!!

THEN second time aziraphale approaches crowley, pub drink ft crowley in jeans and a nice top™ which i think is actually his work top™, then the clip ✨a cLuE✨

crowley and shax in the bentley having a heart to heart, and i worry that she essentially tempts him into luring goob out of the shop so hell can get to him and crowley can get back his precious 😭 peaceful 😭 existence with aziraphale EDIT FOLLOWING THIS!!! I think she definitely tells him to get chummy with aziraphale again

AND NOW we have the "im back" scene

possibly the beelzebub clip from them in hell? possibly an interaction between them and shax? beelzebub manifests as a fly and plays a game of tag in the bookshop with goob, trying to make up for their failure in losing track of jesus

at some point the other angels come to the bookshop to interrogate aziraphale for if he has seen gabriel, believes he's lying, and resolve to send in their ✨top agent✨

3. I KNOW WHERE I’M GOING

main storyline summary:

✨MURIEL MY BELOVED✨

whole "cup of tea" scene, plus crowley removing plants from the bentley "why don't you go by train? you love trains"

possibly muriel feeding back to heaven with her report about aziraphale, his grumpy friend, and his assistant 💓

aziraphale off up to edinburgh in the bentley, possibly crowley has stayed behind to babysit gabriel? (i feel like the 'are you a bookseller too? / not even at gunpoint' interaction was a bit foreshadow-y)

UPDATE: WHY IS GABRIEL CONNECTED TO THE JUKEBOX MYSTERY?? WAS THE RECORD IN FACT IN THE BOX??? AND ITS SOMEHOW LINKED TO HOW GABRIEL LOST HIS MEMORY??? IM SO CONFUSED

still confused but see above SC theory

was the resurrectionist address already taped to the record when it arrived in the box? NOBODY KNOWSSS

UPDATE 2 re: the meme template prime just gave us: so what IF AZIRAPHALE goes to the pub, asks if theyve seen goob, the pub owner (who is in the meme) says "shhhhh I have some intel meet me at the graveyard at 6", aziraphale goes and they show him a pic of gabriel in the pub like removing the everyday record from the jukebox? bc gabriel removed it and that's why the jukebox is now stuck on that song??? AGHHH now I'm wondering if the pub people got a video of the graveyard fight or a pic of the box or something and that gives aziraphale the indication that the whole thing is centred around the second coming

shax possibly knows that crowley is there, and calls the bookshop? or crowley calls heaven to narc on gabriel? OR aziraphale calls him from the phone crowley possibly lent him and idk but a conversation along the lines "hey crowley so i think a fight with demons caused goob to lose his memory and lmao but i think he also lost jesus!!!

either way crowley uses aziraphale's phone specifically and is obviously looking intently at something

and lastly again i think this has the resurrectionist minisode - fitting given that they decked out a pub in edinburgh with resurrectionist signs etc so that probably triggers a flashback for az when he goes there for the jukebox mystery

4. THE HITCHHIKER

no official press photos for this one as far as i know , but possibly????

main storyline summary:

first, *SLAMS HAND ON TABLE* 🚨40s MINISODE🚨

i think however that this is where muriel is back on earth, potentially rooting around greek street trying to be as nosy as possible

and crowley now loaded in with info hot off the press (lmao aziraphale) knows that the second coming is involved and realises he needs to get into heaven to find out more info which is so james bond of him what a legend

and then WELL WHADDAYA KNOW muriel turns up and therefore im wondering if the above is from crowley's pov - muriel spots him in the shop and gets a tad excited

then - bless their soul - muriel gets coerced into helping crowley infiltrate heaven, or he follows them back to the heaven entrance they're using, and jumps in the lift with them last minute (ie the hitchhiker)

god knows why he's going to heaven in disguise but he's living his best life bless*

ALTERNATIVELY see ep1 about the muriel/crowley scene

5. THE BALL

okay i admittedly have no idea on this wtf happens in this one

do they DANCE

is aziraphale checking off a GUESTLIST for their disco ball?????? WHAT IF ITS MAGGIES BIRTHDAY OR A FUNDRAISER AND THATS WHY THERES RECORD GARLANDS ON THE SHOP IN THE OPENING SEQUENCE????

rap battle

a lil SMOOCHY SMOOCH??? (NOT the leak one, a different one)

6. EVERY DAY

✨everything goes to shit lmao✨

i can't even be bothered write out everything that happens in this episode because i think we can guess the bare essentials - crowley is on the throne in hell, demons attack the bookshop, metatron appears and declares war, aziraphale sharts himself, DEMONS destroy said bookshop and aziraphale's FUCKING HOME

i do feel like EVERY is in here because i reckon aziraphale finds out crowley was betraying him to hell, even if for a good reason, and crowley desperately tries to make aziraphale see that it was "for us, for you aziraphale!!!!", SNOG, and aziraphale tells him to get fucked bc now he can never trust him, crowley said hed never lie to him "obviously, you're a demon" from s1, and the cliffhanger is them being on their OWN own sides @azirafuck back me up here

Update 19/07: and what if aziraphale can't forgive crowley and literally tells him he can't forgive him... and fallssssss?

like I'm SORRY but i need heartbreak like THIS

IF AZIRAPHALE FALLS THO IM GOING TO KILL EVERYONE ON EARTH AND THEN MYSELF💓✨

ACTUALLY MAYBE THIS???? IM GOING INSANE NOW

rollo: what is this?

rollo: have you taken pity on me? am i so weak and pathetic to you?

rollo: SPARE ME YOUR PITY.

idia: ugh... some people just take their own ideas and run with 'em.

rollo: what do you mean?

azul: i thought you would've realized by now that malleus isn't some sap.

rollo: explain yourself.

malleus: i've come up with a fitting punishment for you.

malleus: will you confess to your misdeeds or continue to feign innocence? the final decision is yours to make.

rollo: heh... hahaha! what a feeble punishment!

rollo: all i have to do is keep quiet, and i get off scot—free!

malleus: that's acceptable to me.

malleus: you'll be able to deceive others, of course, and even yourself.

malleus: but you'll never deceive the bell of solace that's watched over you all this time.

rollo: the bell of solace...?

malleus: indeed. you hold it in high esteem, do you not? and yet you sought to misuse it for your own ends.

malleus: how you live with your deeds is up to you.

rollo: ......

malleus: you can come clean or hold your tongue. either way, you'll regret it.

malleus: no matter which choice you make, you will spend the rest of your days racked with the fires of remorse.

malleus: there's no greater punishment i could inflict upon you, flamme. wouldn't you agree?

rollo: ...touché.

rollo: you villains are quite well—versed in tormenting others.

rollo: hmhm... mmhmhm... hahaha...

malleus: i trust the rest of you are fine with this?

silver: malleus... you've turned this into a matter of conscience for rollo.

silver: what a brilliant decision. i agree it's for the best.

sebek: if such is your wish, malleus, no one would dare object!

sebek: oh, how truly lucky i am to serve such an incredible liege!

azul: so theatrical...

azul: speaking of, aren't you forgetting something important?

rollo: what's that?

azul: THE BALL.

azul: you know, the main event of the social? the ball's to be held on the second night. which, if i might remind you, is tonight.

azul: it's been bad enough dealing with those firelotuses.

azul: if word got out that the noble bell student council president was behind them, the ball would be called off in a heartbeat.

azul: if you're going to confess, i ask that you save it for AFTER we've left.

malleus: agreed. do as he asks, flamme.

rollo: how self—centered can you people be...?

rollo: were you that excited for the social? are you truly so eager to attend a ball?

malleus: YES.

sebek: YOU HEARD MALLEUS! DO AS HE SAYS!

idia: no, no, it's okay! you can call off the ball if you want! in fact, please do!

idia: everyone's exhausted. any reasonable person would cancel it after such a huge catastrophe! call it off!

rollo: ...fine.

rollo: people will be amenable if i tell them you night raven students insisted on it. you saved the day, after all.

rollo: the ball shall proceed as planned. i'll take responsibility for that, at least.

idia: WHYYY?!

malleus: excellent. now i can truly say that i've been invited.

azul: indeed. now, i suggest we all enjoy a well— deserved rest. we certainly look like we need it.

malleus: heh heh... yes, we do look rather scorched and sweaty.

malleus: we must ready ourselves for the ball.

idia: oh nooo... this means we still have to do the thing...

Masterpost

— I write gn/fem reader

— I love dark themes, but not zoo, pedo and other things like that. I love gore. Also, not a fan of sex-related NSFW, but if combined with gore/injuries... Yeah. I can write about that

— Therefore, my blog is strictly 18+. Also, your triggers aren't my fault. Your triggers are your responsibility. I cannot know every existing one, so I'm not listing any of them. It's all or nothing. I chose the second option. Moreover, I just consider them spoilers that ruin the fun of reading

— I can slightly deviate from the requests or, in the contrary, go deeper into them. My interpretation depends entirely on how detailed your request is. However, I prefer general ones, since detailed sound more like a commissioned work and turn to fanfiction rather than mere headcanons

— I post requests not as direct answers, but as separate posts, as well as answers/thanks for the request itself. If you don't want me to make a separate post with just an answer to your request, but to proceed to the said request immediately, let me know in the ask box

— My no-nos are everything that's illegal. Otherwise, I'm happy to serve. Don't be scared to ask, at least. If I'd feel uncomfortable, I just won't do the said request, but won't block you or anything like that

— I write in many fandoms and there's the list of those I can write about, but better to look at what's I'm fixated on at the moment (just glance at the last posts)

— There was an another blog of mine, called grimtrail, but it was terminated recently... I've contacted the mods and now waiting for the answer, but this blog will remain my main anyway

— I'm not quite stable in terms of writing. I write only when I feel like it, and when I feel like I can put words into something coherent and interesting for myself primarily.

[jessaerys]

out of curiosity does messaging someone who blocked you work out most of the time ? i know you’ve posted about it but idk if it’s worth it. a blog i liked blocked me probably for some annoying fandom thing i said :/

kajsdjkasjkd honestly it's a total crapshoot, i don't do it often unless the blog in question looks like someone i'd like to follow or is in my close orbit (and specially not if i see something on their blog that indicates something about my blogging would be triggering OR if they just seem prissy/annoying).

it's a delicate balance because obviously you don't want to push on people's boundaries, so whenever i do it i just reblog one of their posts that came across my dash (important to reblog it from someone you follow)(ideally the post has under 2k notes, if it's too big it's likely they won't see it, and you really only have one shot)

to whichever one of my blogs is not blocked by them (main or this sideblog)(if they have you blocked on two blogs i say definitely leave it alone. that's a clear sign they DON'T like u) (i also wouldn't recommend doing this if the second blog is NOT active. that just seems creepy. so personally this works for me because i have two active blogs)

with like a lighthearted silly/funny/witty tag (ie. [standing outside op's window with a boombox] pls unblock me on sideblog/blog)(note: not the url itself) upon which, if it works, is because they've messaged me to ask what the blog is. imo it's important to have direct contact with the person! (often it's something along the lines of "omg i'm very liberal with blocking what's ur url!")

if they 1. don't approach you or 2. (worst outcome) block you on the second blog, then it's best to leave it alone and move on. do not attempt again. there's a very fine line between attempting diplomacy and being creepy 💀 proceed with caution

Welsknight Season 7, EP 3 and 4 a Rat's report

So I guess I am doing this, I am watching the entirety of Wels Hermitcraft Season 7 series and doing a actual written report on it.

First / Next

Deep Storage Warehouse | Hermitcraft 7 - Ep. 3

27:41 lenght, posted 29 may 2020, watched 30/01/2023 and 31/01/2023

He clicks record button and it starts raining. He complains that this is "Just his luck" and I agree, this sums his lucky very well. (Personal note: I had a brief flashback to Doc in season eight talking about the fact of how hard is to see rain in Hermitcraft, and I find it amusing that Wels is one of the culprits, as one of the local sleeping maniacs.)

He is tiding up his river "Basically you are trying to avoid the appearance that you just spammed bonemeal, even though you just spammed bonemeal everywhere" (Time stamp 3:50)

"So I don't think there is a rule against two timelapses in a single episode, lets do it!" Stares in House Flipper series at this 3 year old video.

Personal note: I was building a puzzle with friends while watching it and I zoned out a bit, when I zoned back he was so amused talking about his own building that it just put a big ol' smile in my face.

Fwhip mentioned! He built one of Fwhip's boat designs and gave credit, he started talking about Fwip and how he likes his videos and how he watches it! Idk it just made me soft seeing he talking about Fwhip, knowing that in like 2 years? The man would be steeping in Hermitcraft ground, its a shame Wels wasn't active and didn't got to interact with the Empire people.

"My knight time senses are tingling" *proceeds to spam clicks a bed

"My sleep sense are tingling again" *proceeds to spam clicks a bed (I guess this is his superpower now)

He needs to make a shop

-Wels: No one sell leather and I need a good source of food -Me: Nodding in redstoner "Okay so he will make a hoogling farm, sounds fun" -Wels: I need some cow -Me: Excuseme what? -Me: Stops and thinks for the exact amount of 3 seconds, oh yeah the nether was still bad.

He will vote for Joe as dog catcher! Good to know!

He bought the Hermit Heralds!!! The only thing I managed to read was "Unsanitary Scar"

Wels is talking about cow, stops mid phrase "Problem must sleep" Sir just admit you have a problem.

Wels is doing a cow pen (This is where I suffered from multiple organs failure) "Ha you are mine, forever forever, forced to live a life of breeding" SIR (pERSONAL notes: Yes I am one of the mods in correct Hermitcraft quotes, and yes I have posted worst things there (It was Keralis and xB), and NO, I will not post this in the blog, for the sake that my little rat hearth will NOT survive receiving this quote as a notification.)

FULL House Interior! | Hermitcraft 7 - Ep. 4

25:12 length, posted 5 june 2020, watched 01/02/24

This is a interior decor episode, this Brazilian redstoner Rat will do some comments about Wels decor, be prepared.

Decor talk: I love what he is doing with the ceiling, I could never though about that, I would have let it as it was and sulked.

"If I decided to put a basement in this house, this would be the ideal place to put it, and if not, this can be storage, closet, stairs, you know; Harry Potter could live in there or something" (Time stamp 7:30)

Decor talk: Ok that bedroom is gorgeous, the bed isn't functional, but at least he can sleep in the bench (that is actually a bed)

I will describe the next sequence of actions because it's funny

Goes to the shopping district to buy skulkers

Sees the free samples barrel

clicks on it

Zombies appears out of nowhere

It's a trap.

False for mayor trap!

She kills the mobs and walks away looking honestly cool

It actually worked! Wels retreat his concrete vote for Stress

He realizes that got distracted and goes and buys the shulkers

No free samples for Wels

The great entrance hall is attached to the wrong door, the main entrance door is connected to the kitchen "Planning 10/10" At least it's pretty?

Decor talk: He keeps making benches, he doesn't have a functional bed, but he has a lot of benches.

One of his goals for season 7 was to get better at doing interior!

Decor talk: He is doing great, all he builds is so good omg. For all that I joke about his house flipper, this man knows how to decorate and I really appreciate his buildings.

Beef tunes! He is buying a piano!

So I will cut a bit here, to say that Wels did a honestly moving speech about things that were happening at the time in the world, and I feel like are relevant to today 3 years latter.

I urge everyone to go watch it, because it's truly powerful and it was a good reminder of why he is one of my favorite youtubers.

Its starts roughly at 16:53 and ends at 20:06

I will now transcript part of it here, but I can't stress enough, go watch the whole thing, it got me really by surprise.

"However I will say this, I don't give a damn, and I use that word deliberately, because this is important enough to warrant it.

I don't give a damn about the color of your skin, who you love, your religious beliefs, what political party you belong to, or other description that people may use to categorize you, good people are always welcome in my community, and all it takes to be a good person in my book is to follow the golden rule of treat other as you wish to be treated."

The speech is way longer, and I got really really touched, I am still looking at it and reflecting.

Anyway back to normal now.

Some time and world observation:

In the Hermit Heralds it was written "Get gorgeous" I am curious how much it cost Stress to put this there

Shopping district remains a ugly mess

I did this at 2 am, good night.

Sorry for the delay, but something I keep seeing from Africans

Africans: Ugh can Americans stop showing that we are all in huts or war zones?

Black Americans: But Africa is a sacred place for us!

Africans: You do know we have electricity, have the Internet and watch stuff on Netflix?

Black Americans: Huh?

Africans: We also tend to combine our tribes designs with modern architecture and clothing…Wait…We usually became independent in the mid 20th century….You guys don’t think we completely took out the (usually shitty) electric systems the French and English implanted rather than improve on them?

BA: yeah

Africans…Holy shit this explains Wakanda in the movies

Now I been taking to Indian friend to help make a better Wakanda. And one thing I been noticing about people in the old world like in England, India, and especially Japan. Is that they prefer to combine their historical past with modern times

Of course there is conflict between say old New York and modern New York. And Mexico City blended their heritage with their modern style

Now on sir your being mocked, there a very old thread he reblog about someone saying Killmonger represented the conflicts between black Americans and Africans

Now Killmonger and Wakanda was a special case…the thing is with modern black Americans is that current dispora is self inflicted. Like that college of black Americans students complaining there were too many African ones

African Americans activists: We are so oppressed in America *proceed to walk past pictures of the Obamas, famous black civil rights activists like MLK and Rosa Parks, proceed to listen to Micheal Jackson and Beyoncé music*

Oh and the blm shitshow

But the issues is that a lot of black Americans activists never left their 10 year old understanding of Africa. They cling onto a FETISHIZED version of it, and romanticize the Dahomey….who the og source to all the evil shit that happened to our enslaved ancestors

I mean we would have these dark jokes (pun intended) about Thomas Jefferson and his slave if it wasn’t for Dahomey…also Nigeria banned women king? Wait isn’t that also what Yorubaland is at?

In a alternate universe, Israel banned a movie that said that the NAZIS ended the concentration camps

Oh thanks Viola Davis, John Boyega(wait isn’t he a second gen Nigerian Britian? Well shit), and that white chick for damaging our media bond with Africa

Thank youuuuuu

But also the main issues is the ENTITLEMENT my community have towards Africans cultures because we have the same skintones as them. You guys treat Africa as a fucking Disney fantasyland and have tantrums when Africans point out the differences between us and them

Probably a second one, but the feminists panel video I sent. The YouTuber Synder pointed out in the video she felt like she was in a room of people who think their the main protagonist of a young adult fictional novel

It’s terrified me to how much that with black Americans around Africans

Africans: Ugh can Americans stop showing that we are all in huts or war zones? ect....

Post floating round on here, couple of them actually they go different ways but start the same. With pointing out the western idea of what Africa looks like is wrong and racist.

Where it gets funny is the one with the mud huts and such that are actually in Africa and pictures of I thought it was Mexico city but it's not popping up as examples of what they have going on in Africa.

If I hadn't checked the OP's blog I'd have thought they did that on purpose.

Now I been taking to Indian friend to help make a better Wakanda. And one thing I been noticing about people in the old world like in England, India, and especially Japan. Is that they prefer to combine their historical past with modern times Of course there is conflict between say old New York and modern New York. And Mexico City blended their heritage with their modern style

Mexico City couldn't keep all its old traditions alive, had to get rid of that temple in the middle of town where they did the human sacrifices and such, still shows up in their artwork tho.

A lot of these places where they do that it's connected to whatever the faith of the people is, it's 'sacred' architecture, not a hard and fast rule but you'll see it if you look in a lot of places. They also tend to be very homogeneous populations where that happens, be why in the US that just ain't happening. Japan on the other hand.....

Now on sir your being mocked, there a very old thread he reblog about someone saying Killmonger represented the conflicts between black Americans and Africans

I don't recall that bit off hand, but I can see the comparison.

African Americans activists: We are so oppressed in America *proceed to walk past pictures of the Obamas, famous black civil rights activists like MLK and Rosa Parks, proceed to listen to Micheal Jackson and Beyoncé music* Oh and the blm shitshow

2016 some blm activists/leaders were invited to the white house to meet with obama for a chat, barry asked them what they wanted and such the response was along the lines of, we don't think we're being taken seriously and it feels like nobody is listening to us.

I will point out the irony of, saying that to the president of the United States when you are meeting him on his invitation in the Oval Office, because lots of people seemed to miss that one.

I mean we would have these dark jokes (pun intended) about Thomas Jefferson and his slave if it wasn’t for Dahomey…also Nigeria banned women king? Wait isn’t that also what Yorubaland is at?

that and Benin, which benin is actually the successor state to the dahomey empire, so they probably have some band blood still in Nigeria if they did ban that, credit to a lot of various black led publications in the US, they took the opportunity that woman king gave them and proceeded to be honest about it, pretty much out of options other than ignore at that point tho.

In a alternate universe, Israel banned a movie that said that the NAZIS ended the concentration camps

Don't know that I'll ever understand why they made the film, could they possibly have thought people wouldn't look.

But also the main issues is the ENTITLEMENT my community have towards Africans cultures because we have the same skintones as them. You guys treat Africa as a fucking Disney fantasyland and have tantrums when Africans point out the differences between us and them

Was looking for something else to add here and ran into this which just may be better.

ARTICLE LINK HERE

This is one of those things that tend to get black Americans to expose their own anti-blackness, because often times I see the comments made about actual Africans after a thing like this pops up and the entitled children come out of the woodwork with any and every reason why it's tottaly different when they do that.

Any other Black Americans visit Africa to see their ancestral homeland?

This is from a travel forum and it starts out in the most American way possible I think.

There's some nice information in there, some countries in West Africa have made a industry out of black Americans returning to the motherland and are making a fair deal of money out of it, which depending on the history of that country they may be double dipping since they got the money when they sold their ancestors too.

But they probably don't want to talk about that, lol

Still can't find what I was looking for, some IG "model" flaunting herself in the middle of the dirt road in a African village with her fancy shiny new "authentic" clothes with a good portion of the folks that actually live there giving her either bewildered or annoyed looks, reading their minds I can hear them all screaming 'just spend your money and go back to America please' in their heads.

Not Kenyan Hippie is fun with some of that, she's sassy too I like her.

The Eve of Our Return to Finland

Well, I should warm up my blog-writing muscles! Once we're back in Finland, I should probably get back in the regular routine of documenting our stay, for both posterity and for friends/family back home. So, here is to a Happy New Year to all and to the resumption of my blog-post-writing ways.

Since my last post, the New Year arrived and with it, many activities in Albuquerque and environs. Because it is already late on the eve of the kids' and my return to Finland (Eric is staying in New Mexico for a few weeks for work; perhaps I will return to this topic below, but, if not, I will definitely return to in a future post!), I will likely just catalogue here what we've been up to in sunny New Mexico. First, about the "sunny" part. It has been so sunny, and unseasonably warm! Honestly, if we were in NM full-time now, I would surely be complaining about the unseasonably warm temperatures, but, right now, it has been fine. When we return to Finland, we will have snowfall of a few inches, a few times this coming week, and weather in the teens and twenties. And then there is the "getting dark at 3:30 p.m." phenomenon, which certainly takes some getting used to. It really has been nice being in bright, clear sunshine, with what I understand to be "normal daylight hours." I know I have mentioned in several previous posts about how excited I was to be reunited with my Albuquerque bathtub, and, my, what a reunion it has been. I have taken a bath every day I think. In fact, that is what I am about to do, to bid a fond farewell for now to my good friend, my bathtub. (I should add that there was an inflatable bathtub for sale in the Normal, a store I mentioned a few months ago, leading up to Christmas. We considered it. But, in the end, we did not proceed. I was not sure how to fill an inflatable bathtub, and it would just not, obviously, be the same as the hard-sided variety.)

While in NM, we participated in the purchase of a piano for my sweet mom. Now, it has already been delivered, and it looks beautiful in her dining room. I will probably post about her voice lessons (she sang opera as a young woman) and music therapy in the coming months, but, for now, suffice to say, we're all very excited about the piano.

We ate at some of our favorite places while in Albuquerque: Flying Star, Dion's, Frontier, and then a few that have not been in regular rotation before, but are still nice, like La Quiche Parisienne. We went to the ABQ BioPark Zoo, and it has so many new habitats and changes! I am so glad this was on the kids' to-do list. We also hosted a bridal shower for McKenzie at Savoy. It was a small event but a super fun time, with excellent food. I had lots of games for all of us to play at the shower and McKenzie and Brian seemed to have a lovely time, which was the whole goal! McKenzie has been such a wonderful part of our lives since Cece was three and we were glad to have the opportunity to celebrate her upcoming nuptials.

In Albuquerque, we spent a lot of time with my parents -- and that was, quite simply, the main objective of our trip. If the first term in Tampere is any indication, this second term will fly by, too, and we will be back in NM in what seems like the blink of an eye -- back to my parents, able to help them when needed and spend time with them as often as we wish or need. But, I am also really excited to get back to Finland on Tuesday. I am glad we have six months still ahead of us; who knows how many new adventures we'll have?? Cece has two ice-skating competitions coming up and I learned that Rowan's spring ballet/tap recital will be his ballet school's 60th anniversary! So, that should be a real shebang! I start teaching right away once we get back, in fact, the very next day. And, I have a lot of travel coming up in March. I also hope we have some time to just enjoy the winter months without too much hustle and bustle -- and hopefully see that elusive aurora!!! I cannot wait to see my doggy when we get back on Tuesday. He has been pampered by his dog-sitter Laura, but being back with him will be so wonderful. And when Eric is finally all done with Wells Fargo and returns to Finland, I will be very happy, relieved, and so ecstatic to have our little family all back together again.

OK, so, the next post will be from Suomi! Take care, everyone, and I hope your 2025 is off to a great start!

Are you tired of writing boring blogs, emails, and ads that don't captivate your target audience? It's time to give a shot at the possibility of an AI writer! Over the last year, I've tried and reviewed various paid and free AI creators of content. Today I'm back to introduce you a new intriguing artificial intelligence writer Copy AI. This AI writer is gaining popularity in the marketplace lately. So, I decided to taking a look and determining whether it's really worthy of the hype. It's not going to create long-form content in a matter of seconds, or even create complete blog posts with a single mouse click. However, it could aid in the creation of content such as blog titles, outline or points to paragraphs blog intros and outros metadata descriptions, and the like of thing in only a couple of clicks. For this Copy.ai Review I'll begin by discussing User Interface and the working process of Copy AI. After that, we'll proceed to talk about its pricing plans, the most important features, pros and cons of this Ai Writer. With no further waiting, let's jump straight in to the review. About Copy Ai Copy Ai was founded in 2020 by Paul Yacoubian. This company has headquarter in Memphis, Tennessee ,USA .Crunchbase records that the team received a seed funding that was $2.9 million from investors like Adam Morley and Sequoia Capital. At this point, there are more than 3 million+ active users and popular companies like Microsoft, Nestlé, eBay, and Ogilvy use Copy AI for their professional work. My First Impression My initial impressions and experiences using Copy.ai are that it is able to be a valuable and beneficial AI device for appropriate person. It's a great way to push yourself to complete the content you've written even when you're not very imaginative. If you have to create a large number of smaller chunks of content in a short time. The accuracy and truthfulness of the information must be verified in certain areas, especially ones that concern the well-being and health of humans as well as animals. It should therefore be utilized in a way as an aid during the content creation process. In this reason it can prove extremely effective. I have found that the Copy Ai is better suited to general issues than for specific ones, but I believe that with time I will be able to utilize it more efficient. For instance, it produced some nonsense about one specific product, but when it was writing content for the specific product category, it far outperformed. At this point this is probably not the best option for those who want the highest quality long-form content. If you're simply looking for something to throw in a description of a product or in a social media post and you're not concerned with quality the content is fine. But when it comes to producing truly great material, I do not believe it's yet there. What GPT Copy Ai use? CopyAI is a tool for copywriting that is based on the most recent model for language prediction, known as GPT 3. Generatorate Pre-trained Transformer (or GPT3) is the most advanced model built on over 175 billion variables. This is why it creates highly refined as well as high quality content. Copy Ai User Interface The interface for users of Copy AI appears modern and sleek with minimalist layout. Once you sign into your account with Copy AI you'll be able to see a tidy and organized user interface. The left-hand panel offers options to create a brand new project, and you can use the various tools and templates that are available .The main screen offers some useful examples of use as well as a list of projects and folders that were that you have created. It is possible to access the account and language settings in the upper-right corner. The interface however is sluggish and slow. The outputs are a little slower for certain scenarios. Use Cases Copy Ai Interface Copy AI Copy Ai Features Languages As of now, CopyAI supports 25+ languages on its Pro plan.

You can set different languages for input and output, which is great. Some popular languages supported are German, Italian, French, Japanese, Spanish, Russian, Chinese, etc. However, you won’t find Hindi as the supported language at the moment. I hope they introduce it in their future updates. Tone With Copy AI, you get a bunch of refined tones to mold your content according to certain moods and occasions. It offers 8 preset tones, including Bold, Friendly, Luxury, Relaxed, Professional, Adventurous, Witty, and Persuasive. Unlike all the other AI writers I’ve reviewed so far, Copy AI offers the option to create custom tones. If your preferred tone of voice isn’t on their list, you can create a customized tone for any use case. But do they work well? Keep reading to find that out! Plagiarism In the case of plagiarism using Grammarly's AI text, Grammarly detected 16% plagiarism. This is a little high, especially if accustomed to checking lengthy blogs for evidence of plagiarism. I've seen these result in one or two percent level of plagiarism (which is typically from completely non-related content). But, since I had to test such a small amount of text, it's logical. I also ran five tests using other paragraphs created by Copy.ai to determine whether they produced more positive results. They showed zero plagiarism on the five tests. Use Cases Copy AI comes with an extensive library of 90+ AI use cases belonging to different categories. For instance: EMAILS-Discount Emails, Follow-up Emails, Welcome Emails, Confirmation/Cancellation Emails, Cold Outreach Emails, and more. BLOGGING-Blog Ideas, Blog Intros, How-to Blogs, Meta Descriptions, Listicles, Long-form Content, etc. COPYWRITING-Landing page copy, AIDA copy, PAS copy, Features to Benefits, Product Descriptions, etc. SOCIAL MEDIA- Facebook posts, YouTube descriptions, LinkedIn posts, Instagram Captions, etc. BUSINESS-Job Descriptions, Rejection Letters, About Us Copy, Hiring Blurb, etc CREATIVE WRITING- Short Stories, Song Lyrics, Poetry, Dating Profile, etc. Accuracy If we speak about accuracy you have to be with your eyes open here. Check everything. Algorithm needs more improvement. You can get misleading output. For example you can write about tennis balls but output you can get talking about all kind of it. Reader can be confused. Copy Ai and Editing The content from Copy Ai is among the most impressive I've observed from AI. I was very pleasantly amazed. In my Welcome Email, I wouldn't need to alter much. The ability to select several options helped me choose the right paragraphs for me and, in turn, help to reduce editing time. But, as with all AI software for writing, it is best to hire an editor in your company review Copy.ai's output. When I was testing a different software, Copy.ai gave me some mathematical figures that my brain was aware were wrong. The rest of the content was excellent however, Copy.ai cannot solve math . Therefore, please ask your editorial staff to go over the work. Do not blindly publish an article. Copy Ai Pricing Copy.ai's Pricing plans are extremely simple. They offer a free plan which is free for the entire month which means that every month, you can use at least 2,000 words for free without having to input credit card details. This should show you how sure they are in their ability to upgrade. Next is called Pro that begins at $49 per monthly for the use of 40,000 words. It will increase based on the amount of words you intend to use each month. All the excellent features regardless of the number of words you select.

It will give you access to all more than 90 use cases, with a the word-generation limitation of 2k words per month. Payment Methods Copy AI allows payments using Credit Cards.

Blog Post #15: Tampopo by Itami Juzo

I’m really upset that we had to watch this film because of the sheer torture it was to watch people eat ramen, because at the end of this film, I was left craving ramen. Sadly, Gainesville isn’t really known for its ramen so now I am writing this post sad and hungry. I am also upset for other reasons which I will dive into later in this post but to continue our 80s film, I watched Tampopo by Itami Juzo. The story follows the main character Tampopo (no way just like the title of the movie), a widow who runs a measly ramen shop that gets barely any customers. While minimal amounts of people visited her shop, two of those who did were Goro and Gun, partners-in-crime truck drivers who stopped their drive one day for some food. The two stop at Tampopo’s ramen shop and are quite disappointed in the standards of ramen as part of the bleak and cramped shop, Goro immediately notices how the water used to make the ramen is not even boiling. Goro then gets into it with a drunkard who’s an alleged local of Tampopo’s shop, gets his ass kicked, then decides he wants to help Tampopo and help her become the best ramen chef in all of Japan. This kickstarts a whole training arc of Tampopo’s journey to learn how to properly cook ramen and be the best chef she can be. And if that’s not exciting enough, viewers also get to enjoy some light porn involving numerous food kinks AND a three-minute-long shot of a baby sucking a woman’s breast! I think you know where this review is going.

Personally, I really did not like this movie. If I compare it to the films I loved that we watched for this class, it does not even come close. Comparing this and Morita’s “The Family Game,” I cannot understand how Tampopo gets more fame than that movie since I think it’s miles better. I’ll try to keep it concise as there were many things I disliked about this film, but two of the main things that stuck out to me were the side plot with the gangster and just the overall story. The story of Tampopo was, to put it simply, boring. I did not find myself resonating with any of the characters, the plot was confusing at times, and the story just did not make me want to keep watching. I thought it was a bad decision to depict Tampopo as this desperate widow who cannot do anything in her life because to me, it was really setting women back several years. The film’s plot only spurs from these two men with a savior complex to come in and help this woman sheerly out of pity. Because of how ingenuine and immature the characters' motives were, I did not find myself interested in any of them. To add on, I still have no idea why one moment I’m watching a truck driver in a cowboy hat yell at a helpless widow that the broth is boiling, I close my eyes for five seconds, and then I’m witnessing two people make out with a raw egg in their mouthes and have this gangster straight-up season a woman’s booby with salt and lemon and then proceed to suck it like it was a red, white, and blue popsicle you get from an ice cream truck. Then they killed a live turtle. And here I am thinking I’m supposed to be watching a movie about ramen…

I did think that the film had some interesting takeaways on the power of food and how it brings people together. Through helping Tampopo open up her shop, many characters of the film whom we saw earlier would come together with Goro and Gun to help Tampopo out. For example, it’s revealed that Pis-Ken is the drunkard from the beginning of the movie, he sees Goro’s efforts to help Tampopo, is inspired, and decides to join in and help using his interior design skills to redecorate the shop. Unfortunately, that was not nearly enough to make the film enjoyable for me. Sorry for this angry blog post, but I’d be lying if my opinions on this movie were positive.
