#so for now i'm just having fun in SP until we want to do something else w/the servers XD

[afkintheark]

Gave the servers a break tonight, got back on Volcano and built his dino pen. \o/

Keeping it simple because it's mostly just to keep whatever he's currently breeding safe from the occasional dilo that spawns here. This area is pretty safe and calm.

He's tamed a bunch of argies too, and I'm in the process of breeding him a super-bird. He's also got a pair of deinosuchus now, gonna breed them just to get an imprint and then he'll be heading back into the ocean. \o/

Fellow SP fan artist here, do you have any tips on designing sigils? I’d love to draw China more but any time I try my hand at putting sigils on her, they never feel quite right. Do you have a process on figuring sigils out?

Hello! This turned into a REALLY long post I'm so sorry, but I'm flattered you're asking me for advice! Take everything I say with a grain of salt bc there are absolutely no thoughts in my head :]

Okay, here's a secret. You can't tell anyone okay? It's suuuuper important that we gatekeep this. /j I go into a sigil design with absolutely no idea what's going to come out of it. Maybe I have like a very basic shape in mind, but generally I just scribble until something pops out at me and then I keep adding stuff and erasing until a cool design happens. I come up with the meanings as an afterthought, and usually only if someone asks about them; Skulduggery's right facade sigil is the one exception because I went into designing that with the reflections sigil in mind. My China's tattoos are all designed with only 'ooo that looks cool' in mind.

Under the cut: My personal process, How to design sigils (with n without function in mind,) references, and two of my super secret!! canvases

Warnings: doll-like nutity, blood and burns, a lil angst

Here's my personal process: - Scribble - oh I like that shape - make thicker and erase designs into it - Figure out where it would fit on her body - Panic when someone asks what it means - Gaslight myself into seeing a function - Profit

How to design sigils:

Think about where it's going to go on the body.

The back is a bigger canvas than the forearm. What will fit there?

If you're designing sigils with a function in mind:

Is the function used often? It should be easily accessible.

Is the function an emergency or last resort? You shouldn't be able to bump it, but it should still be easy to reach.

Arms, face, and chest are easy to reach. Legs are harder and you need wiggle room. Palms, hips and thighs are good for subtle taps or stealth sigils. Are your hands bound behind your back? What can you put within reach that will help?

What shapes resonate with the function? Triangles could mean fiery or offensive functions. Squares could be defensive. Circles are good catch-all designs. Circles are very magicy

If you're designing sigils without function in mind:

Think about design: Use negative space! Use thick lines or thin lines or both! Overlap shapes and angles! What looks cool?

Do you want them to all flow together? Do you want patchwork? Both are valid! Maybe one arm is a sleeve, and one is patchy!

You can design the sigil first and figure out where it fits on the body, or you can keep the body part in mind while you're designing.

I like thicker sigils/designs, so I start with a blob of ink or a solid shape and erase until something pops out at me.

For thinner designs, the opposite applies. Scribble until something resonates with you or looks cool. What shapes go together?

I like to write little sigil 'letters' alongside thick lines or shapes.

Have fun with it! You can figure out technical stuff later, or never!

References:

I like to use the Twilight Princess Hylian alphabet if I get stuck, or if I have a function in mind. If you glue a bunch of letters together and erase bits, eventually something looks magicy! (Different Zelda titles have different Hylian letters, so you could mix n match as well)

Maybe you use a different sort of script you like. Maybe a code or sorts, or icons from medias you like. Take letters or characters from languages and warp them into something that looks like a sigil

How badly can you draw a 5? There's a sigil! Can you use dots instead of lines? Now add random lines! There's a sigil!

Circles are always good starting points. Eyes are good details. Egyptian glyphs and runes are good starting points. Just make sure not to rip anyone off :]

My China only has like two or three sigils that I went in knowing what I wanted it to look like overall, and those are: - The huge sigil wheel on her back, which I knew I wanted to be a a big circle with swirling symbols and such. - The belt-like design around her waist, I knew I wanted those to look like the top of Midna's Helmet - The upside down crown like triangles on her forehead (which have sort of changed to how I wanted them originally) and the designs under her eyes and on her chin and throat. There's many ways to come up with sigils, and here's another secret: They don't all have to have meaning! My China has a ton of designs, but I've only assigned functions to a handful of them

Keeping it consistent:

I also have a 'China sigil map' I have for reference, but it's not even fully filled out because I got distracted. If part of her skin is visible and I haven't drawn that part of her body before (like the ONE time I drew her back, or her left leg or something) I come up with the sigil then and there xD If you're interested, this is what my 'sigil map' reference canvas looks like. It's nowhere near complete and frankly, a huge mess: but it works for me. Started this like a year ago and just kept adding to it when I needed to

Here's my canvas of previous China references I use to keep everything consistent

Here's where I started rambling and I can't be bothered to edit it, so its prob repetitive lol

One tip I do have is decide if you want thin or thick designs. My China started off with thin and squiggly sigils, which ultimately I never actually liked, but now she has thicker tattoos and I think it feels more athetotic If you go a thinner route, I recommend using lots of squirls and angles together and finding one basic shape and then adding to that. A good example of this are my facade tattoo designs, where I took the reflections sigil and altered it, or took the hourglass shape and added smaller designs around it. However, if you go with thicker designs like I have, ERASE more than you draw. I start with a blob of ink, and then erase designs into it. I reallllly like how negative space is used in tattoos and think about that as I'm designing Chinas sigils as well.

If you're going into designing a sigil with the intent of 'this is going to make her skin hard like iron' then think about where she would logically put it? - To me, that sounds like a 'tap the chest' sort of sigil. The chest is a bigger canvas than a forearm or something, so it can be bigger and more detailed. - Maybe instead, it's two sigils, one on each arm, and she crosses her arms to active it. Okay, that's two smaller sigils bc you have less space for detail. - What reminds you of iron skin? It's defensive, so that makes me think of squares and hard angles. Maybe you straight up draw a shield shape and erase markings into said shield. yeah sigils n stuff! Thanks for the ask and hopefully this was somewhat helpful :]

just wanted to share something positive regarding manifesting my celeb sp to vent and maybe motivate ppl! for context, i discovered loass back in july and have been consciously manifesting a relationship with sp ever since. i didn't really understand how to do things "correctly" and was relying on methods to get me what i want (that i knew did nothing to make me confident in having my desires but i forced myself to do it since it worked so well for other people *sigh*) until i had a big 'aha!' moment a couple months back where my understanding of living in the end/living in the 4d finally clicked. so, around that time i was scrolling through social media and saw a quick advertisement about travelling to sp's home country and had such a strong urge to book a holiday there next year and so i just did it, and it felt so right. after that, i've been walking around with such a deep feeling in my gut that we're already together, we're perfect for each other and that we will meet on my holiday. no matter what i'm doing or where i am, being in a relationship with him is always in the back of my mind like it's something instinctual. my sp is someone with a very busy schedule, to the point where he doesn't have any free time at all to be wondering the streets and meeting new people. well, it just got announced that he will be taking a long break from his schedules (for the first time in his career) at the time i will be visiting. also, last week while visualising what our meeting will be like for fun, i briefly thought 'it would be so cute to meet him at a record store', then shortly after he mentioned he visited a record store recently (something he hasn't done in years). also, all of my friends and family keep telling me that they see me dating/marrying a celebrity even though they know nothing about me manifesting him lol. this period now where i'm just waiting for the months to pass by until my holiday is very strange honestly but nice, since it gives me a chance to focus on manifesting other things in my life and letting sp take a backseat since oddly i found it way easier/more natural to manifest him than anything else (i guess my self concept is stronger in that regard)? also, people put wayyy too much stress on which tense to use when manifesting. you can affirm "it will happen" instead of "it has already happend" as long as you have that true belief in what you're saying. sorry if this was really clunky to read, i've never actually sat down and layed it all out for anyone before hehe <3

yayyyyyyy ngl im so curious hahha

anyway thank you for choosing me to tell this, and congratssss for your manifestations.

its amazing to see how you got this, it’s already done and its all yours <3

Brudick for the ask meme!

001 | send me a ship and I will tell you:

when I started shipping it if I did:

Probably since forever? I shipped Batman and Robin before I even knew there were multiple Robins

my thoughts:

I've been binging Wormsin's fic the past couple days, which means I'm in a darker place when it comes to Brudick. (Also I've been craving some erotic thriller recently and that should just be Brudick: the genre. Can you imagine Bruce and Dick doing the piano scene in Stoker? Amazing).

Right now, I'm lamenting how rarely we see Bruce and Dick together anymore. They are the relationship that defines the Batverse, but almost three decades of Robin being treated like a bad word in DC cinema, I am missing Dick being Bruce's foil. His mirror. The one who took Batman's ideals and became something Batman himself could never be. But more than that, I'm just missing them right now.

What makes me happy about them:

I love mess :D

fr though I just have a thing for super messy father and son-esque mentor relationships where they're perfect together except one is definitely going to kill the other someday. They have a blowup and I wiggle my toes, but I think their sweetness gets me the most. I'm not big on the current era of comics, but I do love Bruce acknowledging Dick's worth and strength and I think Bruce needs to it more often

What makes me sad about them:

Their relationship is so heartbreakingly toxic sometimes, and not even in the fun way. Slade can almost kill Dick and it's hot, but if Dick was my friend and Bruce treated him that way (either as a partner or a parent or even just as a boss), I'd be begging him to leave. There's a real bitter undercurrent of Bruce being expected to do no wrong but also be dark and broody and grim that leans on Dick to always forgive, always come back, no matter what Bruce does to him. I think that just makes me sad about Bruce in general-- I am gagging for character development and DC steadfast refuses to give it to me.

things done in fanfic that annoys me:

I think a lot of fic makes Bruce either too good or too awful, until it's either boring or ooc. I just can't with a Bruce who is just the worst, or at least so deeply profoundly mediocre that he may as well be the worst. But also sunshine and rainbows seems too happy for them. It's a hard balance for the source materials, let alone the fic. And I include myself in this! I think Brudick is a genuinely difficult ship to write, because their dynamic is just difficult to nail down in general. Honestly I struggle to write them because of it, myself

things I look for in fanfic:

Passion. They may be the old married couple of the DCU, but Brudick are sexy. Any fic where they're a couple has to include the fact that they're an extremely taboo relationship but they're just so into each other it doesn't matter. Sizzling chemistry. Raw desire. The kind of mental anguish to keep Catholicism alive til the next millenia.

Who I’d be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other: 

Realistically, I think Bruce is going to end up with no one, but I'm down for some BatCat. Dick I ship with almost everyone

My happily ever after for them:

Dick being in a fucking live action film again

The DC world is so incredibly unpredictable that I think any ending I can imagine now would be completely incongruous to what would make sense five or ten years down the line. And honestly it's hard to imagine an ending for them. Right now, I would just like a run where Dick and Bruce have to lose their current status quo and have to genuinely understand and accept everything they are to each other. Yeah yeah, they hugged recently, but god I want them both to be stripped down to their darkest secrets and bared to each other; where Bruce can't make empty platitudes and Dick can't just forgive everything. Something where they get the choice to walk away and instead hold each other twice as hard. And then I want the hug

who is the big spoon/little spoon:

Bruce is the big spoon. Dick is the loose limbed jellyfish who can't stay still for five minutes and prefers to be face buried in Bruce's chest anyway

what is their favorite non-sexual activity:

Fighting Swinging through the city, grappling hooks not necessarily required.

started watching delicious in dungeon/dungeon meishi (sp?). or as i like to call it

~*AUTISM COOKING DUNGEON*~

dear god y'all have undersold this to me. and like i get it. spoilers and all that. but holy shit

our boy isn't like... "tee-hee little-bit of autistic, just a smidge" like you were all making me think. no no. no, this guy is DEEPLY autistic. we're talking "normally we only give THIS much autism to aliens and robots" kind of autism. the "i need an allistic translator for my social fubars" autism (rip your sister dude). the "i learned a thing! so now im not gonna shut up about it for at least an hour" autism.

and they gave this to THE ONE SINGULAR HUMAN IN THE PARTY. this guy is a HUMAN FIGHTER/KNIGHT-type that is like the MOST BORING/NORMIE shit in a d&d style setting. that is "why are you even playing a fantasy game?" level of normie shit.

and THAT is who gets to be The Party Freak(tm)

i love it. completely unironically/unsarcasticly i love it. they took the "that much autism isn't human anymore" bullshit thats so prolific its basically a trope and went NOPE FUCK THAT NOISE

what i find unforgivable though is that none of you mentioned he's a Kronk too.

boy sounds SO SO STUPID but is so so smart when you actually listen to what the fuck he's on about now (and think on why he's on about it right then). he's a big tank (literally in the fantasy class sense) that just wants to help everyone and do his little special interest shit on the side. and it is on the side because the other two seem like they had no idea it was more than trivia until he didn't have to help micromanage a massive party. like this shit has clearly been on repeat in his brain in the background for A WHILE but he was so busy helping/keeping everyone alive it got shoved aside of his outward behavior unless it was useful. he is a lovable dorky himbo and NONE of you mentioned this.

anyway, i'm also loving the way this whole show is basically only like this because him and senshi are vibing on the same wavelength and the other two are basically just along for the ride to save their friend/part member

the whole thing has a Green Eggs and Ham kind of thing going on with it too. but like...environmentalist about it? like it was more subtle about the whole "hey maybe work WITH your current environment rather than against it" bit and then we found out what senshi normally does and subtlety just went right out the fucking window on that front.

i'm also liking the way it both explores the horrors of dying in a world where being brought back to life is common, while also kind of...poking fun at it? like its reminding me of a thing i heard something like "the difference between comedy and tragedy is how far from it you are" kind of concept.

like they are so fucking ... how the fuck do you spell it blase? with the little "/" over the e. that. the story is so bland in how it handles how people came back from horrific deaths and yet when the characters have to face things that remind them of their own it gets heartbreaking very quickly. but like...chillchuck. goddamn. we get just enough from his perspective that its harrowing but the way its shown to us the reader/viewer is like a comedy skit

cause like...its both.

these guys keep dying/nearly dying to THE. SAME. FUCKING. SHIT.

mage elf is slimebait, chillchuck is basically Dungeon Canary with an emphasis on mimics, and himbro over here is gonna get himself killed trying to pet/eat a new monster no one else knows about at some point. probably why his sister seems to have specialized in healing magic.

i know the fandom is thinking once they get his sister back that she's gonna be Just Like Him but i think it would be much funnier AND more 'realistic' if they were classic autism-adhd alliance but siblings about it. like him being better at staying on a task and her being better at navigating social cues and shit. and both of them with their own little special interest energy. i'm betting her's is magic. and thats why even magic elf is like "omg shes so good at magic i'm no where near that level" about it. i mean its also the lesbianism but there IS more to that than thirst from what i've seen.

anyway i'm 6 episodes into what seems to be 12 available on netflix and i'm already hooked. might have to see if i can get my hands on the manga or something too

Shifting motivation; benefits and opportunities you can achieve with shifting

we all know there's a lot of benefits and new opportunities that come with shifting and today i'm going to mention some of them, hope you feel motivated and enjoy!

New experiences that can seem impossible here

think about it, there's a million of new and cool experiences you can have with shifting, you can literally be fairy in an enchanted forest or even a superhero that has to save the whole world, there's a bunch of cool stuff you can experience and everyone is fully capable of it, don't limited yourself and have fun!

Be able to visit all the places you've dream off

you can literally go to any of the places you've been dreaming since you where a kid and you're telling me that you're not motivated enough? come on. You can literally can go anywhere you decide right now so why you keep wasting time?

Acquire new knowledge

shifting is so amazing that you can literally go to another reality to only learn a new language or to learn how to play piano or even to study the career you have always wanted but couldn't because of your parents idk , what im trying to say is that there are infinite opportunities with shifting. Shifting is way more deep than only going to another reality to make out with your SP, you can literally have the secrets of the universe! (but its also valid if you only use shifting to experience your teenage romance btw), And of course its possible to learn something in your DR and came back to your CR with that knowledge (i´ll probably talk about this in another post).

Quantum immortality

for some people this might sound scary as hell and i understand that cause, who wants to live forever in a shitty world? but you don't have to live forever in a life you don't enjoy/want. This is not something that is very talk about in the shifting community so i thought that'll be good if i talk about this today. Quantum immortality is literally what the name says but to explain in it in a deeper way is that you're capable to live forever with shifting because you can shift to a reality where you stay 78 years for example but when you came back to your CR you're only 20 years old cause when you went 78 years to your DR but in your CR only have passed a few days since you left (its way too confusing ik) this meaning that you can travel realities forever until you get bored and it may sound scary but if living forever is not what you want then you can literally don't cause we control our reality so do what you want and what you're comfortable with, im just saying all the possibilities that shifting has.

this is just a brief list of benefits but i will for sure make another one, hope you enjoyed this one!

SP Special Containment Part 14

If you are new to the story or need an update please use the hashtag SP Special Containment. -MJ

Sorry it took so long, I've been busy. -MJ

The Director stepped into Mitch's holding room.

Mitch chuckled, "that sounds like the Director."

The Director sighed as he stepped into Mitch's line of vision.

"Now how did you know that?", the Director tried to hide a shudder.

"I've learned the sound of everyone's heartbeat when they come in here. I learned yours when I first came into the facility", Mitch grinned, "though it's beating faster right now, are you that scared of me", Mitch chuckled.

"Can you blame me?", the Director leaned against the wall, but noticed a mirror, "what's this for?"

"Cass put it there so I could see who is coming in, I like that Cass kid. Though they keep a respectful level of fear, they have taken good care of me."

"I'm glad", the Director nodded.

"So I see someone put the head straps back on. What happened to cause that?", the Director sighed.

"Aramais's caregiver, that bastard can't take a joke", Mitch chuckled, "just like Aramais can't. He came in with Cass last night to check on me, I made a comment. He got annoyed and put these on me. I'm quite ticked by it honestly."

"I would like you to be respectful to the staff, you're not exactly everyone's favorite right now", the Director frowned, "they're working hard to keep you as comfortable as possible here. Though I know the chair hasn't been very comfortable."

"Aye Captain", Mitch laughed, "this chair has sucked."

The room was quiet for a minute while the Director thought of what to say.

"So are you here to tell me the date I'm scheduled to die?", Mitch grinned, "it's not fair to keep someone waiting for that you know."

"No actually I have an offer", the Director looked at Mitch, "I do apologize it has taken a while, the facility has had a few obstacles to get through. I had to meet with several people regarding you."

"Oh, I thought my ears were ringing, I thought it was just the alarms from the other day", Mitch frowned.

"After we got you contained, I messaged my higher ups to see what to do with you. They messaged back that I could do whatever I wanted, but they recommended I destroy you."

Mitch made a digusted face.

"I can't bring myself to do it, you haven't truly given me a reason to go that far", the Director continued, "at least not yet. I've met with everyone in this unit, pretty much everyone says you deserve a second chance. Even Whumpee has agreed as long as you are kept far away from them. There will be some minor adjustments to attend to, but would you be interested in becoming one of this facility's contained weapons. You'll be given a caregiver, but you will have to work on gaining our trust though."

"Someone is actually willing to take care of me?", Mitch seemed shocked.

"Yes, I've been monitoring your interactions with them. You seem to like them a little. They also enjoy your sarcasm", the Director looked at the door as it buzzed open.

"Cass?", Mitch laughed.

"If you're open to this, I will start working on a schedule. Cass still has morning classes a few days a week", the Director smiled, "I just need a yes."

"You know what, why not", Mitch laughed, "especially if it means I get out of this chair sooner."

"Alright, I will work on the schedules, we will transfer you to your new holding room later today", the Director smiled.

The Director left, and Cass came around to Mitch's view.

"I have the room set up as well, Andy showed me how to prep your room and how to take care of everything", Cass smiled.

"That's cool", Mitch smiled, "how fun, something I never thought I'd do."

"We will have a lot of fun", Cass smiled, "I'm here until next Monday, though I'll have to go back to campus to return something one morning before I come in this week. I'll be shadowing Caretaker tomorrow so I can learn to be the best caregiver possible."

"Oh good, I'm sure you'll do great. Tell me, is there a guard in here right now", Mitch couldn't tell in the mirror.

"There isn't, that's a first", Cass chuckled.

"We are still watching you", a voice came over the speaker.

"I was just checking", Mitch sighed, "I couldn't see anything. You guards are so strict."

"Do you need anything right now Mitch, I still have a few things to do before you get moved", Cass looked around.

"Nope I'm alright right now, thanks", Mitch smiled.

Andy walked past Mcgee.

"That is a rather large bag", Andy gauked.

"Yep, Jaimie requested a giant soft blanket when the Director stopped in the other day", Mcgee grinned and held up the blanket, "I went to town today, so I picked it up."

"These weapons", Andy laughed, "I sometimes forget they are capable destroying armies, especially when they ask for stuff like this."

"I know, it's kind of sad though. They are asking for comfort items, things we've had access to all of our lives. They've probably haven't had these things for a while", Mcgee frowned, "I always try to say yes to Jaimie because I know she really wants these things."

"I'm happy they trust us enough to ask", Andy nodded, "I feel bad, Cass was showing Aramais some of their homework. Aramais picked up this book, and said it was interesting looking. Next thing I'm getting a text from the guards at three in the morning to tell me Aramais is still awake reading. I never asked if he wanted to read something, and some of his past came out to, before he became a weapon. He had a hard childhood."

"Jaimie was picking at her nails the other day, and I asked if she wanted a manicure", Mcgee agreed, "she said she remembered getting them with her mom when she was younger, before she was kidnapped. She was very happy to have her nails done again."

"Kidnapped?", Andy frowned.

"Yep", Mcgee nodded.

The Director came by, "you got the blanket?"

"I did", Mcgee showed the bag off.

"That looks huge", the Director grinned.

"I know", Mcgee laughed, "she's going to love it."

"Are you heading to her right now?", Andy smiled, "I see Caretaker and Cass over there, do we want to all go watch Jaimie open it? If Mcgee doesn't mind."

"That would be great, kind of like a birthday party or something", Mcgee smiled.

Everyone piled into Jaimie's room.

Jaimie looked at them all weirdly.

"What's going on?", Jaimie frowned.

Mcgee was buzzed in carrying the giant bag.

"I-is that the", Jaimie got onto her knees excitedly, "is it Mcgee?'

"It is, everyone wanted to see you open it", Mcgee handed the bag to Jaimie, "we can show Aramais and Whumpee on Monday."

Jaimie shook excitedly as she opened the bag and revealed the blanket.

"It's so soft", Jaimie smiled as she picked it up and squeezed it, "and big, I love it."

Jaimie couldn't contain herself, she got up and hugged everyone.

Mcgee helped open the blanket and let Jaimie unravel it.

"It's so so soft", Jaimie smiled as she wrapped herself in it.

"It looks very nice", the Director smiled, "I'm glad you like it."

Jaimie happily twirled around for a few moments before collapsing into her bed.

"I can't wait to sleep with this tonight, it's going to be so cozy", Jaimie giggled.

Guards lined the hall as Mitch was pushed to their new holding room.

Cass talked excitedly throughout the entire transfer.

Mitch tried to be patient so he didn't get this messed up for himself. Cass was driving him crazy though as he tried to concentrate.

Four guards surrounded Mitch as two guards undid his straps. Two others stood with their guns pointed.

"Nice and easy", the guards guided Mitch behind the bars, then quickly locked it.

Mitch sniffed the air, "Aramais has been in here."

"Yes, he made sure the room was ready for you", the Director watched Mitch crack his back.

"If I never have to sit in that thing again it would be to soon", Mitch sighed, "let's hope Aramais didn't lie to you and give me an easy escape."

"I doubt that, but if you do find one, just let the guards know", the Director frowned as they watched Mitch look around.

"I'll keep that in mind", Mitch chuckled.

"We'll let you get settled in everything on that side of the bars is yours to use", the Director followed the guards to the door, "if you need anything the guards can hear you. They'll either do it or message Cass. Then Cass will check in periodically and bring your meals like normal."

"Okay, well thankyou I'm happy to be allowed a room finally. Mostly so I can move", Mitch laid on the bed, "oh, that's nice too."

Andy watched from the monitor room, "this just seemed too easy."

One of the guards nodded, "I agree, we will be monitoring him fully. None of the guards trust him, especially around Cass. I wish Cass would listen to Aramais, I don't think they've taken those warnings to heart."

"I know", Andy frowned, "I don't think so either. Aramais gave me several warnings to watch for before I even started taking care of him. Just in case he did lose control of himself or something happened with the other two."

"Aramais has earned all of the guard's respect, Whumpee and Jaimie have as well", the guard zoomed in on Mitch, "he's planning something, and has had plenty of time to do it."

Andy nodded in agreement, "I need to check on Aramais, excuse me."

Aramais groaned as he forced his eyes open.

"I shouldn't have stayed up so late", he groaned and glanced at the book, "it's a good book though."

"Finally awake Aramais?", one of the guards came over the radio.

Aramais yawned and stretched before sitting up.

"Yep, I'm going to pay for that later", Aramais looked at the camera, "my body isn't use to doing that."

The buzzer went off and Andy came in with a big grin, "you didn't even hear me come in to check on you earlier. You were out."

Aramais nodded, "I heard the buzzer, but didn't have the motivation to move. I figured if anyone was coming to kill me, the guards would help me, or I would accept my fate."

"You've slept way past breakfast and have an hour before lunch. Do you want anything to hold you over until then?", Andy reached into the pocket of his lab coat.

"What do you have?", Aramais watched.

"I've got a granola bar and a bag of chips", Andy pulled them out.

"Both, I can already feel my sugars are low", Aramais held up his hand to show the shakiness.

"Here you go", Andy handed over the snacks, "and here's your water."

"Thanks", Aramais sighed, "I feel like what I think being hung over feels like. I haven't slept like that since before becoming a weapon."

Andy sat down, "yeah, I got a text at three this morning that said you were still awake. Was it that good of a book?"

Aramais nodded, "yes it's pretty good. I used to escape my life by reading. I lost that comfort when I became a weapon. We weren't allowed comforts and escapes during that, we had to always be ready. It's nice to get away every once in a while. Nothing against being in here, the accommodations are great, but a book is nice to get some freedom."

"I'm sorry Aramais, I feel bad that you all are forced into this. You must feel trapped", Andy sighed, "I wish I had known you liked reading as well. I would have gotten you books sooner."

"It is what it is, I figured I would have died or something would have happened before I got older. I know I'm too dangerous to be in the world, and like I said, I appreciate the care I receive and I know Whumpee and Jaimie would say the same."

"I'm glad you feel that way", Andy smiled, "they moved Mitch today, it went smoothly. I don't trust him though."

"Neither do I", Aramais opened the chips, "as long as Cass listens and the guards are watching he shouldn't be able to find a way out."

Andy nodded, not wanting to admit Cass was still not listening as well as they should be.

"They are heeding my warning.... right?", Aramais frowned having seen Andy's body shift.

"I won't lie, I know it doesn't work with you. They are somewhat listening, but not as much as they could be. I think they see you three and think Mitch will fall in line the same way", Andy frowned, "Cass probably thinks Mitch will be like you."

"Cass is killing me", Aramais frowned.

"They're with Caretaker and Whumpee tomorrow, but the next day they are shadowing me", Andy stood, "if you want to..."

"I'm not doing anything else, if they don't want to listen to me then they can learn the hard way", Aramais watched Andy, "the lesson is going to be harsh though."

Andy nodded, "I'll be back with lunch, unless you want to go out for a ride in the hall."

"How is this going to work with Mitch?", Aramais stretched, "I could use a ride in the hall."

"Mitch has scheduled times he can be out, during those times you three stay in your rooms. If he decides he does not want to come out, he loses that time slot and has to wait for the next one", Andy stood, "I brought the chair just in case. Mitch probably won't want to come out for a while though, I think they're done with the chair."

Aramais took a sip of water while Andy rolled in the chair, "what is it doing outside?"

"There was a storm earlier, I think the rain has let up though", Andy moved a few straps for Aramais to sit, "do you want to eat by a window?"

"That would be nice if it's not a problem", Aramais sighed as they got up and walked to the chair, "something different to see."

"Not a problem at all", Andy started to do the straps, "I'll have a guard watch you while I get your food."

Aramais nodded.

In the cafeteria Andy waited for Aramais's meal to be prepared. Each of the weapons had a specific diet to serve their needs.

"Hey Andy, we are having a milkshake special today. Do you think Aramais would like one?", one of the workers came up excitedly, "I'll make you a shake as well."

"I think he will love one", Andy smiled, "what flavors are their?"

The worker started to list the flavors.

"Did you say peanut butter?", Andy grinned, "he loves peanut butter. Can I have strawberry."

"Yes of course. That's what Jaimie wanted", the worker grinned.

Andy rounded the corner and saw Aramais talking to the guard. The guard stood but was totally relaxed with Aramais.

"Aramais has earned everyone's respect here", Andy whispered to themself, "I'm glad to be taking care of him."

Aramais saw Andy getting closer.

"What are those?", Aramais eyed the clear cups on their tray.

"Its milkshake day in the cafeteria. I thought you'd like one", Andy smiled as they sat the tray down, "I got you peanut butter."

"That sounds so good."

"I'll be over here if I'm needed", the guard interrupted briefly, "nice talking with you."

"Thanks", Aramais smiled, "nice talking with you."

Andy held the shake for Aramais while they drank, they also took a sip of their own.

"Hmm, that is so good", Aramais smiled, "I haven't had a milkshake for a long time."

"How long?", Andy started to feed Aramais.

"I think", Aramais thought while they chewed.

"It was a mission. I had gotten hit pretty bad, and I was waiting for my pickup. I was shaky. I hadn't been given a meal before the mission, and they didn't give me rations because it was a quick mission", Aramais had another bite before talking, "I was hiding in an ally and across the street there was some sort of ice cream place. I had a few dollars on me that I smuggled and kept on my person at all times in case I attempted to run away. I knew I needed something in me, I wasn't probably going to get much for food. So I ordered a small shake. It was enough to hold me over until I got a meal. I took a few sips before my pick-up got there. I was forced to hand it over to my trainer and watched them down it."

"Aramais I am so sorry", Andy frowned as they offered more of the shake.

"It is what it is. I was just glad the mission was successful so I didn't I get punished", Aramais smiled, "I think they forgot."

"What was the mission?", Andy tried to pry more.

"I'm sorry, but there are things that I'd rather be kept secret. For your own safety and innocence, I'd rather you not know what I did", Aramais frowned, "it wasn't good, I've seen and done a lot of bad things and I want to leave it in the pass."

Andy nodded, "I understand, I was just trying to learn more about you. There isn't much we know outside of your files and the last few months.

"I appreciate that", Aramais looked around, "but you are better off not knowing certain parts."

"Okay, I understand", Andy nodded, "you know the facility has a library. Would you be interested in visiting it? I have to get permission to take you as guards don't normally get stationed there."

"I would like that", Aramais took another bite, "I almost finished that book last night."

"I'll put in the request", Andy looked down at the empty tray, "you finished everything. Are you full?"

"Yes very. That shake was really good", Aramais eyed the tray.

Andy set the tray on Aramais's lap and started to push to the cafeteria.

Aramais kept his head low thinking about the mission he had mentioned.

'So much blood', Aramais remembered quietly.

"Andy?"

"Yes, Aramais", Andy kept pushing.

"I'm sorry but could you take me back to my room?", Aramais turned to look at him.

"Yes of course. Are you alright?", Andy turned to go to the holding rooms.

"I'm fine... uh.. just some memories I need to work through. I don't really want to be in the noisy cafeteria and chance going into a survival mode", Aramais frowned, "I need alone time."

Andy went back to Aramais's viewing room after dropping off the tray and reporting to the Director what Aramais had said so it could be recorded in the chart.

"How is he doing?", Andy looked at the cameras.

"He asked for it to be kept quiet in there and that he be left alone", the guard frowned, "then he wrapped the blanket around himself and flopped on the bed."

"He covered his face even?", Andy frowned.

"I think he's hiding the fact he's crying", a different guard mentioned, "he's doing a good job besides his shoulder shaking a little."

Aramais quietly sobbed knowing the guards could hear. He didn't want anyone to see him.

He was being haunted by the faces of everyone he had killed.... "so many.. faces."

"He asked for some alone time. Let's let him have it, I trust he knows how to work through whatever is going", Andy frowned as he watched Aramais move his arm under the blanket to wipe his face, "please update me if anything changes or if he needs me."

[thisdreamplace]

Hi dream! How was your time away? I hope you’re doing better now and life is treating you kindly.

I wanted to have a good update for when you got back, I kinda do lol. I used to have celebrity crushes. They would be my sp (it was always kpop idols). However, I am black. Despite every kpop idol I “wanted” having said or did something offensive to my race.. I still wanted them. That bothered me. I the law says we can manifest anything, but I had to realize how f*cked up that truly is. 😭 Imagine having a sp that is potentially racist, but you still want them? I had to ask myself, how desperate can you be? What is wrong? (not in a condescending way, but truly) I recognized that it came from an insecure place. Placing everyone and everything on a pedestal, when it should be me there for my life. I don’t know these people, but I do know what they have shown me on camera and it hasn’t been good. The person I dream of being wouldn’t want this. She would live and know that she could have the most perfect person for her. For some reason, it was a hard concept to grasp. I was so stuck on having a kpop sp. I guess I viewed them as perfect (EVEN THO I COULD CLEARLY SEE THEY WERE NOT) and if I could have them, then I must be on their level. Whew. Thankfully, I have come to my senses lmao.

I saw the Barbie movie last week. I do not regret it. I wanted to have fun for once. Everything was okay until I took pictures. Let me tell you, I had the worst breakdown ever. I’m still currently having it. So I took pictures that day and I fell apart. My appearance has always been a struggle to like within. However, it made me feel much worse this day. So much worse that I have not looked at myself on camera since then. I do not look at my reflection anymore. I have been too scared to see myself because I know I will be reminded of how it hurts to even look at myself. I used to check myself whenever I could to see if I finally manifested, but now I can’t handle doing it. I have always been uncomfortable with my appearance (I didn’t even go out because of it). I know we can’t force what we truly feel away, but because of that, I am not sure how to get out of this. I try to live but a part of me truly feels that I deserve to be nowhere or do anything I like because I am not worth anything. I should be embarrassed of myself. I remember my mother playing a video of me yesterday and I wanted to cry because I had to hear my voice………See how bad it is? 😭 I feel lost because I am allowing what I truly feel and think to come forward, but it’s not easy. I don’t know what to do with it all.

One of my parents has also been a problem in my past and now (due to my mind). I still carry resentment from the way they were in the past. I understand it, but I don’t want to deal with it anymore tho. They are better now, and sometimes I am able to let it go but then I think about how much stress they caused but I really just want to let go. When I tried to get an apology, no one listened tbh. I do not care about that, I just want to be released. I am not sure how to release myself from the anger and resentment. I do not need an apology but I do need to free myself. I realize that I can forgive and let go without an apology. I don’t know how to get to that point.

Despite circumstances, the Barbie movie made everything better. I stepped out of my comfort zone, I got a Barbie outfit and I went out. I know my entire message has been such a rollercoaster. It was a little up and then it went down. 😂 I was still happy that I tried. I love the movie.

Its nice that you are back tho, dream. Have you watched Barbie or are there any movies you have watched/will watch? I want to go to the movies again, just for the snacks LMAO.

-😵‍💫 anon

hiiii <3 i'm so happy to hear from you !! 🥹

my time away was... really, really lovely. although it wasn't such a long time away, so much changed and materialized in my life. it was such a reminder how... natural this all is. how the things we want most, that align with our heart, really aren't anything we have to strive for. it's so weird to think, to the ego that,,, we have to do nothing. but my time away was just a really strong reminder of that, as i experienced it all happening so effortlessly. now, i'm just remembering how it's safe to believe in the best outcomes for myself, to sit with everything through the practice of indifference. 🫧

first of all, love how that all came full circle for you !! like seriously, i love how you were able to realize what you truly wanted vs what the ego thought would fulfill some idea of lack within you. thats the thing. our true wants, our true desires, don't ask anything of us other than to just be. to embrace ourselves and who we are, we dont have to bend or anything for them. it's actually really lovely, and i'm glad you realize that for yourself now.

awwwe i wanna see the barbie movie but tbhhhhhh ive been really busy and when im not busy i just wanna lay around hehe :3 its just that kinda end of summer for me rn ! i'm really glad you go to go and dress up and enjoyed it !! i'm really sorry how it ended though. you remind me a lot of myself though, many years ago now. but i lived like you for most of my life. i remember i wouldnt dare look in mirrors, and theres many years of my life where i have no photos to show for it because i absolutely refused to let myself be on camera. sadly, i hated myself to the core and i thought i was so disgusting and terrible. so actually, i understand your pain in that way. but for me... my advice is that kind that might not help you because it's extremely straightforward. the truth is that... i just realized one day, when i began my self love journey (before i even knew the law or anything), that there's really no point in hating my looks bc like. literally. what does it do ? actually nothing. so overnight i decided to think i'm pretty because it literally costs nothing and it literally does no harm... while hating myself actually did a lot of harm. now, i accepted i'm pretty to myself but when i came back into the world (this all happened around covid time) i realized i still think others can think i'm ugly, so i wasn't fully comfortable but... slowly, i just allowed myself to build my confidence. the more i looked in the mirror and hyped myself up, liked what i saw... the more i stopped being afraid to be seen. and it's not always perfect but... you just have to remember it's a daily practice. there's ebbs and flows to life, and safe to be wherever you are.

anyway, thanks so much for your update !! honestly, that's how it is sometimes !! despite everything, i can't say everything these days has been totally easy for me. i can see how my life is beautiful, but the anxiety within me doesn't really care these days. but that's just part of it. and literally, yes. i love movie theatre snacks sooooooo much. thats 75% of the reason i love going hahahah

take care !! xo <3

2025, May 27 Tuesday

Sucks that this NPC's name in Star Stable is Tai, which is similar to someone I knew who was a real piece of shit. I wonder how long it'll take me to get over that.

_____

This morning I had a way too big bowl of tuna alfredo. Before lunch WL and I watched Rosie and Jim which is something we haven't done in probably 2+ years. It was nice and interesting how we just got back into the swing of our banter. Lunch was cobbled together instant ramen situation which wasn't bad but I'm finding I really need to add less water. Thickening with corn starch doesn't do what I wish it did in this case. Speaking of food, I have a few solid recipes now that I'd like to document on my cooking blog with pictures. Just for fun. After today's request, SP and I did our shows. Then I cleaned for an hour again. I was actually looking forward to it all day because right now cleaning is an exercise in agency and will. I like scrutinizing literally anything in my room and decided whether or not I should change it. Remembering that the small things add up, I'm also confident that paying attention to the small things I ignore will make a big difference over time. I believe this strongly when it comes to money and I know it applies everywhere else too. I just forget that sometimes. Tonight I was diligent about picking commissioners for next month. And I got briefly setup in a clan for Foxhole.

Today I was yearning a little bit. I deeply want to feel cared for like I used to but I will not be fooled by this feeling. I have a void that is crying out to be filled but nothing can fill it correctly. The void shouldn't exist at all, thats the real problem. In this case the void is a lack of self appreciation and acceptance. Without that I desperately need someone else to make me feel appreciated and accepted. Seen even. Thats just not sustainable and I've learned that. So until I can eliminate this void, I am lost and empty. It feels like this could go on for months.

Im starting to think it's just over with her. I really don't deserve the position I've been put in for a couple years now. When I think about everything that's happened, it all makes sense. Her actions tell me she really doesn't want me in her life. Her actions have said that for a long time, not just lately. I think she had an idea of what she wanted me to be and that's what kept her around. I really did want to be able to properly talk about things and work through them mindfully but she doesn't want to. I don't even know if I want to at this point. With where we left off, I had made such a strong attempt using what I had learned to state my feelings as gently as possible. What I got back was more defensive manipulation and total silence. That feels horribly disrespectful, being treated this way having shown such vulnerability. But I've known for a long time that I cannot trust her word or her behavior. I can't even trust her to be honest about her feelings. It was like walking on eggshells for so long. She manipulated the hell out of me without even knowing it. Now I'm in a weird place where yeah I'd love to sit down and reflectively listen to her more. I'd love to keep respectfully asserting my feelings. But I also don't want anything like what we had again. Something new could be nice sure but I don't think she wants that either. I don't think she wants me at all.

Transformers: BotBots Season 2

S2 EP 10: "Assault on Already-Own Property"

ESCALATOR--NIGHT

Burgertron, Dimlit, Kikmee, and Clogstopper, and Bonz-Eye sled down the rails of the escalator, celebrating loudly, enjoying their fun. Dimlit's love interest, Jacqueline is sliding down in glee with her boyfriend as they slide next to each other as she and the Lost Bots land on the floor.

"Well, I gotta say Lost Bots that was a moment of fun, as I say so myself!"

"Totally!"

"Couldn't say so myself..."

"Ready for Round Two??"

"WOULD I?"

"OH YEAH!"

As the Lost Bots walk back up the upstairs escalator. Kikmee taps on Bonz-Eye's shoulder.

"So, Bonz-Eye, I got to ask you something..."

"Sure thing, Kikmee what is it you want to say?"

"What were you doing at the Candy Store with Lady Macaron?"

Bonz-Eye blushes.

"A-hem...you know Macaron and me are like friends! You know one-on-one meeting!"

Kikmee raises an eyebrow

"Look, I just like hanging out with the Sugar Shocks, okay?? Even though I don't like "sweet" like them! I'm a tree that likes to meditate and practice karate!"

Kikmee gets a confused face.

"Okay!! Okay!! I'll tell you the whole thing! *sigh* I've been having this feeling since I went to the Dark Side of the Mall where I told me that alone is fine--*breathes in and out* then came Bot Prom and--and--*gulp* okay--Kikmee, I like--I like

Kikmee's eyes widen in glee

"Oh my gosh..."

"I like gir--"

"MADE IT TO THE TOP!!!"

Clogstopper whoops and slides down the escalator along with the other leaving the two dumbfounded before Bonz-Eye's 'coming-out'

"Bet I can beat you in a milisecond, Dimlit!"

"Oh! I can catch you up in a mile, Burgertron!"

"Oh no, watch out Dimlit!"

Burgertron and Dimlit whoop and holler in glee until they crash into one another as they tumble down the rails and fall flat on their faces.

"OH NO! DIMLIT, are you okay??"

Jacqueline feels Dimlit's pulse on his wrist.

"That. Was. Awesome!!!"

Dimlit jumped up, surprising Jacqueline as she sighs in relief.

Bonz-Eye leaves a smile but fades quickly but thinking about her feelings towards when she's in the Sugar Shocks.

NORTH SIDE OF DARK SIDE OF THE MALL

Star Strike and Llandra are locating energon readings on Llandra's tracker.

"These energon readings are off the hook...it's all over the place..."

"Have you double checked it again?"

"I've tried! since this place is full of Earth born bots it's entirely difficult to track where the 'Cons are!"

Llandra palm slaps the tracker's screen

"Try looking again...we need to be aware if they strike out and don't want to any bot hurt..."

"Especially Burgertron..."

Llandra folds her arms in annoyance...

"Yes...Including Burgertron..."

"But, Llandra you know how Burgertron can be, he cannot bring himself into this! He's like a human preteen--who knows what trouble he can cause!"

"So? He's still young! He's been online for a year now and he wants to know what's right for his friends and his squad! I know you want to protect him I want to protect my loved ones as well! You need to let this go, I know you miss them but that will get you nowhere. What if he goes offline and who are going to blame?"

"*sighs* I guess your right...Let's focus on the mission..."

Star Strike and Llandra continue to find Decepticon sightings as Star Strike begins to have horrifying images of his old teammates/friends being murdered four years ago during a mission. Energon splashed on walls and water, Rip Runner faceplanted with a diagonal slash of energon, Lockjaw with his torso and his legs sliced off laying on the ground.

"DIE YOU DECEPTICON SLAG HEAD!!!"

A silhouette figure with a red eye slashing down his katana on Freely, as her torso gets split from her body leaving Star Strike covered in energon.

Star Strike gets spooked and hyperventilates.

"Um...Star Strike, are you alright?"

"...Yeah, yeah I'm alright...I'm alright...L-let's continue on with the mission..."

Haunted anonymous sounds plays in the background.

DARK SIDE OF THE MALL

Micro-Masters starting with spiky, muscular, deranged looking surround the mall with Sonar waiting.

"EY-OH, Sonar! When it's bird brain get get here! I'm sick of waitin'!"

"He'll get here, when he gets here, Rancid Maker, you just have you wait patiently..."

"Well, I'm sick of waitin' when we are gonna slag some scraplets around here!! I got my acid blaster ready to aim!"

"And you will, Rancid Maker once Laserbeak and the rest get here..."

A jet soars above them.

"Oh, he has to be here..."

The jet shapeshifts into Mercenary with the tied up Science Alliance.

"Hey, hey! Look what I got! I stole some walking and talking piece of scrap metal during my self-own mission! Are we cool now?"

Sonar and Rancid Maker gave disapproval looks

"What?"

"Mercenary, when we ask you to hunt down these Earth based protoforms. WE asked you to hunt down tons of them--THESE you found doesn't come close to what we're hunting!"

"HEY, HEY! At least I did you guys a favor! I DID LASERBEAK A FAVOR! I did what you guys do and this is the thanks I get???"

"The thanks you'll be getting to show loyalty to Megatron and YOU didn't show any sign of that!"

"Oh, please! Like the old man EVER want my loyalty! Especially, that walking and talking cassette feathered pterodactyl who acts like he's the boss of us with that black cat and those two hammer-slamming dorks! If I were him I would've plucked those feathers and serve him on a platter!"

Laserbeak lands behind him.

"Like...what?"

Mercenary turns around as he sees Laserbeak, Ravange with Rumble and Frenzy.

"OH! L-L-LASERBEAK! I'm just speaking about how great you are! look, I brought you food!"

Laserbeak gets an disapproval look.

"You know me! I'm part of the Decepticons! Proving my loyalty to the almighty Megatron! Yep! That's great--OH! I got these scraplets you asked!"

Laserbeak walks over the kidnapped Science Alliance and looks over Mercenary and lefts up a claw to grab the kidnapped bots but aggressively grabs Mercenary and slams him to a wall.

"*chokes* What the tailpipe? *chokes*"

"Why would I seem impressed by your lack of duty as a Decepticon? You couldn't match up a little bit of a RANKING of showing to prove yourself WORTHY to US. Since we found you were just this displaced bot who was treated like a outcast and needed assistance, YOU chose THIS to be a part of our fighting force to wipe out an OUNCE of whatever insect for the sake of Cybertron's legacy. Well, news flash, Mercenary...WE'RE NOT IN OUR HOME ANYMORE. THIS IS YOUR LAST CHANCE. You are going to knock it off on behaving like human juvenile delinquent AND act subordinate to the Decepticons and MEGATRON! Or we'll leave you in the dust like any other lowlife bots we've found in the streets of Iacon...Your choice..."

"I'll-I'll be..."

"TICK, TOCK..."

"I'll be loyal..."

Laserbeak's claw leaves Mercenary's neck and plops down.

"Very good...Do us a favor, Mercenary, do not speak to us..."

Laserbeak flies away as other Micro-Masters walks away leaving him behind as breathes in fear.

FOOD COURT

"So then Clogstopper showed me to his infected toenail collection and some of them looked like dried blood!"

"Uh, Barts I think you should hang out with Clogstopper less..."

"Like, why not?"

"I'm not doing this to be mean and all...doesn't it seem gross..."

"Well Ulf, he showed his collection of toilet h--"

Ulf covers Fottle Barts' mouth.

"*stammers* TMI, TMI, TMI!"

"Let's talk about OTHER things..."

"Well, Brock O'Lonley is doing a duet with Snorg..."

"That was two weeks ago..."

"Oh, okay...Wanna talk about how Burgertron is doing..."

"Sure, let's go check on him and see how's he doing..."

Ulf and Fottle Barts walk to Burgertron, Clogstopper, Dimlit, Jacquenile, Kikmee, and Bonz-Eye are...

"Hey, Burgie!"

Clogstopper turns to have moldy gum in this mouth.

"*stuffed with used gum* HEY BURGERTRON LOOK WHO'S HERE!"

Ulf and Fottle Barts grunt in disgust.

"Yeah...he's just looking for another--kind of gross, part of his collection..."

"You're telling me, Burgertron..."

"Whoa, used gum?"

"*creepy and sinister* CAN I TOUCH IT..."

"Really? Sure thing!"

Fottle Bart happily follows Clogstopper

"How about we move on?"

"Agreed..."

"FAST FOOD RESTAURANT STAND"

Burgertron and Ulf the Orange look up at the starry night sky.

"So, this is what you do when you're alone?"

"Yeah, I know! Just looking at those shining dots at the night really bring you out, huh?"

"Hey, uh...Burgertron--can I ask you something."

"Yeah, sure thing, Ulf what you want to talk about?"

"About what happened over a year ago, when Spud kicked you out and you and the Lost Bots became a burden to our society, the one thing that always come back to me, did I acted terrible to you?"

Burgertron ponders

"Well, I wouldn't say--"terrible" but--well, you did...okay, maybe you weren't a good, decent bot but..."

Ulf's head looks down in shame.

"Okay, okay! Maybe you acted bad toward me but that was a year ago! We lived up to it besides, look at Dimlit and Jacqueline! They are like a couple now!"

Dimlit and Jacqueline kiss each other.

"Also, look at Kikmee and Bonz-Eye they are friends at a close nought!"

Bonz-Eye twitches as she blushes as she looks at the female mannequins as she covers herself as Kikmee places her two hands on her back.

"Alright I get that but still I couldn't even imagine I was that disrespectful, I even fell for Spud Muffin's lies!"

"Spud Muffin manipulated you?"

"Oh yeah, you couldn't even imagine how badly HE manipulated us!"

MONTAGE

MALL--MOP BUCKET SPILL

"Who in the blazes spilled this all over here?!"

"UH...LOST BOTS!"

Spud Muffin pointed to the confused Lost Bots to Sergeant Scrubforce

ARCADE

"How come this arcade game isn't working?'

"LOST BOTS!!"

Spud pointed to Kikmee playing a game to Game Over

"Ugh, I cannot stand this waiting around here! Is this line gonna move?!"

"...BLAME THEM, UH NOT THAT GUY--THOSE...LOST BOTS!"

Spud pointed to Dimlit to Krontzel

FOOD COURT

"Uh, Spud why are you wearing a take-out container?"

"It's my comfort zone when I feel alone...BUT ALSO LOST BOTS!!"

END MONTAGE

"Wow...he was a master manipulator, huh? Well, that didn't stop him from creating the GoldRush Games to get us all banished..."

"Oh, man...Oh, I'm sorry, Burgie...I've I would've discovered who Spud was I've could've told you by now..."

"C'mon Ulf, that's old news..."

"How come he was such an awful manipulator! If it weren't for you helping out Dimlit from the final section of the GoldRush games, Brock O'Lonely playing the GamesMaster, his theory on french fries--"

"ULF! That was the past! For what we know now, Spud's gone and he's not gonna harm us anymore! He's not gonna harm you and your friends anymore! Believe me!"

Ulf blushes and stands up as the two get closer and about to kiss until--

"YO, BURGERTRON!"

"ME AND BONZ-EYE ARE GONNA TELL YOU SOMETHING!"

Burgertron and Ulf give confused looks to Kikmee and Bonz-Eye.

"Kikmee, don't..."

"BONZ-EYE LIKES GIR--"

They hear a missile sound.

"Does anyone hear that?"

Kikmee and the rest look up as they see a jet with Rumble as jumps from it and slams down creating a crater at the Food Court where the sound is from across the mall from the Janitor's Room, a Sports Store, The Electronics Store, and the Candy Store.

DECIMATED FOOD COURT

The BotBots cough from the smoke from Rumble as he appear in front of Burgertron and Ulf.

"YOU??"

"Well, if it ain't the greasy bot from before..."

"No...you were trapped..."

"YOU KNOW THESE GUYS???"

"It's a long story to explain--ARGH!"

Burgertron dodges Rumble's hammers as stumbles on falls on his butt in front of Laserbeak.

"Miss me?"

"YOU AGAIN?"

Laserbeak opens his wings like a buzzard trying to grabs its prey to Burgertron.

"COME ON, JACKIE-BEAR! I'LL GET YOU OUT OF HERE!"

Ravage pounces from the escalators as he roars at Dimlit and Jacqueline.

"Kikmee, Kikmee? Kikmee you there?"

Bonz-Eye gasps as she sees a unconscious Kikmee on the ground as she picks up her body.

"COME ON--WE HAVE TO--GET OUT OF HERE!"

Micro-Masters do their assault on the Food Court, making the Hunger Hubs evacuate, most likely displacing them.

"TEAR THIS PLACE APART, I'LL DEAL WITH THIS ONE"

Burgertron tosses an empty soda cup to Laserbeak at flicks it away as he charges, head forth toward him, finally grabbing him with his talons.

"I've always wanted to do this in a very long time, now it is my TIME."

Laserbeak slams Burgertron on the ground, Laserbeak uses his index finger as he throws down to stab Burgertron's face. Suddenly, a face mask, and face shades appear on Burgertron blocking the sharp talon from Laserbeak.

"WHAT?"

"Hey why is the mall so blue all of sudden, WHOA! My voice sounds cool! Is this a power up??!!"

Laserbeak grunts furiously

"OH boy! ARGH!"

Burgertron dodges a talon about to crush him.

"How do I take this off?"

The face shade and mask go off.

"Oh, I took it off...OH MY GOD I TOOK IT OFF!!"

Laserbeak charges at him. Burgertron dodges his beak slamming on the ground.

Ulf runs in midst the chaos.

"Brock O"Lonely?, Fottle Barts, Tappy?"

A lizard Micro-Master appears in front of her.

"Hello, little lady..."

It licks its tongue around its mouth. As it charges like a crocodile about to catch its prey. Ulf yells in fear

Bonz-Eye kicks the lizard bot as it falls on the ground.

"C'MON, FOLLOW ME!"

"Wait, what about the others??"

"Dimlit?"

"STAY AWAY, YOU--YOU BAD KITTEN!!"

Ravage growls at Dimlit and Jacqueline with a miniature umbrella for drinks as Ravage smacks it away.

"Dimlit...I don't think he's backing off..."

Ravage roars at them as Jacqueline trips making Ravage rushes to her as covers herself from the right side of the mannequin head as Ravage bites on it making it yelp in pain.

"No...no...no...Stop it..."

"Dimlit!"

Ravage digs his teeth further making her yelp in pain

"Stop, stop it, stop it, stop it, stop it, stop it, stop it!"

Small sparks of lightning appears from his body.

"Stop it, stop it, stop it, stop it, stop it, stop it, stop it, STOP IT!"

Dimlit unleashes a full blast of electricity unleashing lightning, hitting Ravage knocking him off the food court.

Dimlit pants from the amount of power from him.

"DIMMY, HOW DID YOU DO THAT?"

"What happened?"

Bonz-Eye and Ulf run and take it shelter as they see Clogstopper and Fottle Barts are with them.

"Oh! Hey guys! trying to survive?"

"CLOGSTOPPER, WHAT WERE YOU AND FOTTLE BARTS EVEN DOING?"

"Hiding from the chaos, as usual..."

"MAYBE YOU COULD'VE HELPED US AT FIRST!!!"

"OF COURSE, ULF! BUT THE SCENE WAS JUST TOO INTENSE FOR US!! Besides, where is Burgertron?"

They hear Burgertron yell as Laserbeak flies him around the food court.

"Oh, there he is..."

Laserbeak slams Burgertron all over columns, walls, and slams him on a soda machine, dragging him through it as different varieties spurt out--root beer, orange soda, fizzy sprite, lemonade, lime, and cherry soda. As Laserbeak throws him and slams him down as Burgertron is covered in cherry soda.

"Offline, YET?!"

Burgertron breathes heavily as he tastes the soda.

"Cherry soda wasn't even my favorite..."

"Still talkative...I'll make this quick and painless as possible..."

Laserbeak's talon sharpen.

"And, oh I would like to thank you of bringing out that signal to occupy this mall as our own. Good night..."

Laserbeak raises his talon--

"LASERBEAK!"

The bird turns around as he Night Thrash.

"This battle is over, we've already taken space as our own--there's no time for executing insects..."

Laserbeak looks at Burgertron and back at Night Thrash.

"We'll might again, this time it won't be pretty...You'll be offline as soon as you may know it."

Laserbeak walks away from a almost breathing Burgertron.

Rancid Maker runs to Laserbeak.

"We've decimated this space, Laserbeak! We ready to demolish?"

"Precisely...But we don't need explosives for this space..."

"We don't?"

"The grill...It's still on...I know what to do--bring in the new recruit..."

The Micro-Master that matches Spud Muffin's height walks toward to the completely destroyed Food Court as he looks around and brings out his sword as it glows a light green color, leaving the BotBots shocked as the sword blasts at the grill as it explodes, causing the Food Court to explode all over the place as it begins to collapse.

"COME ON!"

Bonz-Eye signals the rest to escape, the debris slums down, rubble and boulders all over the ground.

DESTROYED FOOD COURT

Micro-Masters investigate the rubble of the Food Court.

"There isn't an ounce of energon around this place! It's presumedly that burger bot died in the rubble."

"Pity, I would've killed then, oh well..."

Laserbeak leaves with the Micro-Masters.

Two silhouettes appear in the rubble where it reveals to Star Strike and Llandra rescuing Burgertron.

"Don't worry, kid we'll get you to safety..."

[spjohnv-blog]

chey i am sorry to do this again haha

Somewhere I still have an old document I'd typed out about the candidates for Mysterion and who was most likely to be, from an old blog at the time.

Me and @muttsterion had a lot of discussions at the time. She was positive it was Kenny and I was like, "I want it to be Kenny, but I'm just not confident in Matt and Trey enough", and I was wrong and very happy to be wrong about this. We actually started a Coon and Friends-style fic before the episode aired and then adjusted plans.

A then-friend told me at the time she and her tattoo artist thought it was Kenny, which always sticks in my head as a funny anecdote.

A lot of people did think it was Clyde, because he falls asleep during Cartman's presentation and some people thought this was a 'clue' he had been up all night as Mysterion.

One of my friends planned out an elaborate, epic-length fic where it was Clyde, and gave him a dark backstory, and ended up losing interest in this as a fanfic and repurposing it for some original fiction. For him I think he viewed Clyde as a blank slate.

I recall vaguely a fanfic with Craig!Mysterion and Kyle at the time, but not much details. This was the main instance of Craigsterion I saw at the time. I got the vibe some people liked the concept but nobody thought it was the canonical answer, especially because "Pandemic" had just happened and so "nice and boring just the way I like it" was right there, and "Fishsticks" also reinforced this attitude.

I also remember a fanfic where Kenny claims he's going to fuck Mysterion, no matter who he is, to which someone points out he might be Mysterion, and he's like "then I'll fuck myself if I have to!"

I don't really ever remember anyone who thought it was Stan, but I think a lot of this was that Stan was such a main character I think subconsciously a lot of us felt like we'd KNOW if it was Stan. One of the main Stan fans I knew at the time gave him his own hero identity, as did I, although mine was.... very Mysterion 2.0-y.

For a dark horse, I drew Pip as Mysterion at one point and SPS included Dogpoo in a poll for Mysterion's possible identity which I found funny.

When "Mysterion Rises" was about to air, a trailer consisting of Mysterion's opening monologue (including "I do have a power...") was released alongside the poll I mentioned, and Kenny won by a landslide on the poll. I'm not sure how much the trailer might have helped.

Oh, and between "Coon 2: Hindsight" and "Mysterion Rises", there was speculation, too. Some people expected Mosquito to be Kyle because of the lemon bars and doing good deeds and standing up to Cartman (bummed this was COMPLETELY dropped once we found out it was Clyde) and some of us thought Mint-Berry Crunch might turn out to be Kenny. I really really did not like the idea but I felt sort of resigned to it. It sounds silly but I was very deep in "Matt and Trey won't let Kenny be cool" until that point. A few people thought Bradley was Human Kite because of the lower pitch and lack of dialogue. (Yeah, the fact it was setting up a joke about a Jewish slur was something a lot of us guessed, too, and some didn't want to buy.)

I will say one reason something feels slightly lose in the later Coon saga when they sort of just accepted we know who's who now. There was a lot of fun magic in not knowing who everyone was, the creativity is lended toward, and the heroes kind of feeling like unique characters, but it does feel like by Fractured but Whole, they were pretty resigned to letting them be kids in costumes, which sometimes worked really well and other times was... okay, I guess Mosquito's at Raisins now. Very heroic, very demure.

Speaking of superheroes, it must to have been a fun time guessing who was who in the Coon trilogy.

so i dont have direct experience with it (before my fandom start) but I know people who did and from what I understand, most the heroes were figured out pretty quickly without much fuss or debate. The only one that I know really was a bigger debate was the original "who is mysterion" in which a decent amount of people thought it was Not Kenny (ive heard craig come up often as one of the Other guesses) though from what i understand a lot of people were on the kenny train

how to manifest quick guide

+ success story

hi guys, my name is flora ! i've been in the manifesting community for a bit more than year and in this blog i'm going to share with you how i personally manifested my dream life and how you can do it to !

⚠️ if this doesn't work for you and something else does, then it's absolutely fine ! just bcs we don't manifest the same way doesn't mean one of us is 'wrong'... as long as it works !

HOW TO MANIFEST

1.Self Concept

For me, the most important thing is to have a good self concept. I have personally never manifested ANYTHING without having a good self concept. I had my sp having a crush on me for 2 years and I only knew it when my self concept was right and I knew my value.

It may not seem fair, but you can't attract anything if you don't love/respect yourself. And yes, it's hard to do so when you hate everything about your life, your body, your relationships, your financial situation etc but nobody's going to help you unless you step up for yourself.

First key to manifesting is knowing your worth !

2.Deciding you already have what you want

You don't have to overcomplicate it. It can be as simple as : healthy relationship with my sp, new clothes, bigger lips.

Once you know what you want, decide that it's already yours. It can be a bit hard to do it at first because you're going to think that you're delusional. But when you think you're delusional, remember who tf you are?! you can get whatever it is that you want and it's not a mirror or numbers on a screen that are going to tell you otherwise.

Look around you and see how the world is abundant. And how many people have what it is that you want, the relationship, the clothes, the lips. All you have to do is choose it.

3.Make the process fun

Manifesting shouldn't feel like a chore. You can do whatever makes you feel good, like turn it into a game maybe ! Create playlists that match the mood of what you want, draw something, visualize if you like it, write a journal...

Things I personnaly like are :

playlists

when there's a storm everytime there's a ⚡ i tell myself it's manifesting

pretending that my desires are in a 'package' that the universe is going to deliver to my door

rampage abt how happy i am to have my desire

4.Live the present

You are going to enjoy your manifestation in the present moment. So there's no point in living in the past. Your past doesn't need you. Do the healing you need to do and never repress your emotions, but don't let yourself spiral or get stuck because it is not serving you and simply not going to help no matter how stressful the situation may be.

DON'T FOCUS ON TIME for the love of god ! Just keep going with your life and don't overcomplicate the process. Treat yourself like a baby and do everything you like. Never force yourself to do something just to please someone. Enjoy your life !! Everything is going to be okay

SUCCESS STORY

Physical appearance (SP + dream life later)

I used to look like this. I know I was not ugly but this was not the appearance I wanted and I was actually getting bullied at this time so my opinion of myself was really low. I felt lonely all the time, I had almost only one close friend, and my love life was basically desastrous.

(i look 11 but i kept looking like this until last year lol i am 16 now)

Listen, I never affirmed. I never did guided mediations, or sport, or affirmations, or visualization, or SATS, or anything. Physical appearance was my first successfull manifestation and I wasn't even aware that manifestation was a thing back then.

But one day I realized I was really fed up and I told myself 'no but i am smart and pretty and everything why would ppl keep bullying me like tf. also why wouldn't i attract the guys i like have you seen me ?' and it's a bit weird but somehow i was immediately convinced of what i was saying.

Now my body/face look like this and when i tell you i pull up anyone i want its true. When i go out litteraly all men break their necks to try to see me again and i get asked for my insta/snap like 15 times at least whenever i go out. SO BELIEVE IN YOURSELF PLS ITS REALLY NOT THAT HARD I PROMISE !

I will post the sp + dream life success story in another post since this one is already longer than the bible alzjzkaoal.

Love &lt;3

The joy of a routine

It was strange that settling a bet between two friends turned into this, and while you had agreed between the three of you that the arrangement would continue, you never thought it would blossom into what it was today.

In a matter of months, the love you had for each other, a love reserved for friends alone, had grown into something different and now you could safely say you loved both of them and they loved you.

The house you had bought together was nice, certainly better than Angel's dark cockroach hole and Manny's tiny little apartment. You had just finished washing the clothes while Manny and Angel cleaned the hardwood floors when the call came from Bishop and Manny and Angel wandered into the laundry.

"We got to go, Club stuff but we'll be home before dinner." Angel didn't sound happy, none of you were planning on leaving the house today.

You smiled and kissed each one on the cheek, "that's alright, be safe you too."

Manny smiled, "you know I will be, I can't say the same for Angel."

Angel huffed, "screw you man."

You shook your head, "behave boys, I'll do dinner tonight."

****

They got home to the food on the stove, walking in and kicking off their shoes then heading to the kitchen to greet you, "what's for dinner tonight Querida?"

You picked up the spoon and took a scoop of the sauce and held it to Manny's face, "give it a taste."

He smiled, "shit that's good, what is it?" Angel reached over you and swiped his finger through the sauce then stuck it in his mouth, "this is good corazón."

"It's a stew with chicken and onion and some pastry twirls, it should be done in about thirty minutes."

Angel came up behind you and wrapped his arms around you, "can we do anything to help?"

You smiled, "get the pasty out of the fridge, cut it into strips then hold each end and twist them into opposite directions until they twist together. It's already rolled out so you don't need to worry about that but get it into the oven as soon as you can, the colder pasty is when it goes in, the more it puffs."

Manny and Angel exchanged looks, the rivalry hadn't gone away, it had simply changed. Now, the prize wasn't who was the best lover, it was you, who got your mouth or who got to fuck you first, who got to go down on you that night before a nice fuck. You were glad it was something easy because the last time this happened, they were weeding the backyard and ended up with poison Ivy because they were too busy trying to beat each other to pay attention.

Manny smiled, "winner gets to eat dessert off her tits." They raced to the fridge and Angel yanked out the sheet, throwing it on the bench and trying to block Manny so he couldn't get close enough to help.

"Behave, if I have to go over then and cut it in half so no one cheats, no one is going to be eating anything off anywhere. One inch strips please."

Angel rolled his eyes and grabbed two knives, handing one to Manny. You could almost hear their hands moving as they performed the task and to your amusement, they were done at the same time, they looked at you like little boys and you shook your head, "you know the rules, if it's a tie, no one wins."

Manny made a sad face, "does that mean we both get to lick dessert off your tits?"

You rolled your eyes, "no, now go bathe so you're clean for dinner."

****

The shower was another competition but your yell of no running in the house and only touching them if they were spotless stopped them from extending it further.

Angel came out first, trying to sneak a pasty twirl, "don't you dare young man, this is for dinner which will be ready the moment Manny is done. If you want to help you can serve yourself some stew and take five twirls and only five."

He made a sad face, "don't even try it Angel."

He walked up to you and placed his hand on your cheek, pressing his lips to the side of your head, "alright corazón, I love you."

You sighed, "I love you too but stop sweet talking me."

Manny came out and you handed him a bowl, "go and sit."

He looked at Angel, "what did you do?"

Angel made a face, "nothing."

You shook your head, "it's dinner time, stop fighting."

****

The plates were clear and Manny and Angel cleaned up while you enjoyed a cup of hot coco. When they came back, you expected them to have dessert with them but they didn't, "where's the chocolate cake?"

Manny smiled, "we've decided that you can be dessert." They walked up to you, each one standing beside you, Manny stretched his hand out and you took it, then they were walking you towards the bedroom.

You took the same position you always did, right in the middle of the room with one of them in front of you and the other one behind you. This time Angel was facing you, his hands on your shoulders, "I want my dick in your mouth."

You smiled, "I want that too." You sunk down onto your knees while Manny went and got comfortable on the bed, making sure he could watch the show. You placed your hands on Angel's thighs and looked at up him through your lashes, "can you lose the top?"

Angel smiled and raced to remove his shirt, dropping it to the side and returning his hands to your shoulders. You untied his sweatpants and pulled them down, his half hard cock springing free, "no underpants, really?"

Manny chuckled, "we don't really need them with you, it's just something that's going to be wore only to be washed hours later, what's the point?"

You sighed and turned your head, "I am not that bad." You turned back to Angel and his hand rubbed your cheek, his cock growing fully hard as you reached to stroke it. His head tilted back as you licked the tip, Angel gasping as you took it into your mouth while your hand covered the rest of him.

"Fuck I love this view."

Angel chuckled, "you should see it from here, best fucking sight ever."

Manny smiled, "oh, once you're done I will."

You pulled back with an eye roll, "say who?"

Angel chuckled, "stop paying attention to him and get your mouth back on my dick." You did as he asked, sucking him in as far as possible while he grunted in pleasure. You could vaguely hear the rustling of clothes as Manny got naked, his hand stroking his cock as he watched the show.

Angel pulled you back far sooner than you would have liked and waved to Manny, "get off the bed, I'll get her ready and you can have her mouth." Manny scrambled to stand at the side of the bed while Angel waved you to lie down. He stopped you half and removed your PJs, his hands brushing the skin as it was revealed to his eyes. You did as he asked, getting comfortable and relaxing as he spread your legs.

Angel's hands ran up your legs while you turned your head and reached out to take Manny's cock. Angel's hand reached your centre just as Manny's cock reached your lips and it was hard to decide between leaning into the pleasure or focusing on getting Manny off. Manny's hand was on the back of your head as you took him into your mouth and Angel pulled down your panties then ran his fingers up and down your slit.

"Fuck Mano, sucking dick gets her so wet."

Manny chuckled, "I know dude, it's so fucking hot." He went to say more but the words were stolen from him as you took his as far into your mouth as he could go, then Angel's thumb found your clit as he slid two fingers inside you.

You moaned around Manny's dick and Angel shook his head, "I bet that felt good?"

Manny groaned, "fuck yeah it did." Angel worked you up slowly, his fingertips pressing to your G-spot as you reached out to cup Manny's balls. Angel scissored his fingers open and Manny tapped your cheek, signalling for you to pull back.

"What gives?"

Manny smiled, "I want to cum inside you, don't be difficult."

You went to respond but you were cut off by a moan as Angel doubled his efforts, the edge approaching fast. "Come on Querida, give him what he wants and then I'll fuck you so hard you won't even look at Angel."

Angel rolled his eyes, "I'm the one making her cum, you're the one who will be enjoying the show tonight." Angel turned back to you, his face full of charm, "come on, cum for me then I'll send him out of the room to take care of himself."

You sighed, "you can both have me, but if you don't behave, I'll let him go first."

Manny smiled, "yeah Angel, behave or I get to go first." Angel's fingers never let up through the whole thing and with one more pass to your G-spot, you were arching off the bed.

"Please stop fighting and just choose."

Manny smiled and reached out his hand, clenched in a fist, Angel shaking his head as he did the same. After a few shakes, Angel's fist stayed clenched while Manny's went flat, "fuck yeah, I win."

Angel stood up with a huff, "fine man." He swapped places with Manny, a smile on his face, "I think we'll pick up where we left off."

Manny hovered over you and pulled your attention away from Angel, grabbing his cock and running it up and down your slit, "you want this?"

You nodded, "yes please." You threw your legs over his waist and he shifted his hips to slide inside you, your breath getting caught in your throat as he bottomed out. Manny paused to allow you to adjust and Agnel pulled your attention back to himself.

Manny's hips started to rock as you took Angel into your mouth, Angel's hand on your cheek as you hollowed them around him. You whimpered around him as Manny angled his hips to rush your G-spot and his thumb came to rub your clit, Angel's brow furrowing as he did his best not to choke you.

"That's it, holy shit you are so good at that." You hummed a thank you and Angel's hand moved to hold your head. Manny's hips picked up speed and you found yourself right at the edge, Angel holding your head while he pulled his hips back so you didn't bite him. You turned to face Manny and he took your face in his hands, looking into your eyes as you clenched around him.

You sighed as Manny's hips slowed, the twitching of your core getting too much for him, "I ain't judging man."

Manny glared at him, "shouldn't you be focusing on getting your dick sucked?" Angel smiled and looked down at you, his hand brushing your cheek as he turned your head back towards his cock. You took his shaft in your hand while you wrapped your lips around his head, Angel grunting as Manny's hips picked up speed again.

They shared a look that you knew well, they were both close and they were in competition about who could last the longest. You moaned around Angel as Manny's hips took a steady pace and that seemed to do it, Angel letting out one more grunt as he came down your throat. That was all Manny needed and his hips slammed into you as he chased his own high, finally coming inside you with a bite to your shoulder.

Manny flopped on top of you while Angel climbed onto the bed with a sigh. You shoved at Manny's shoulder and he rolled off you, kissing your lips on the way and making a face, "dude, you kissed me so shut up."

Manny shook his head, "your lips are so pretty that I forgot you just had his dick in your mouth."

You rolled your eyes, "Who's turn is it to get the snacks?"

Angel smiled, "mine, I have a surprise." He got up in a rush and you watched his bare ass as he went Manny shaking his head.

"What, I can't appreciate the view?"

He sighed and kissed you again, "you are insatiable."

Angel returned and threw something at you, it glancing off your chest while he laughed, "that isn't funny Angel, you know I have no hand eye coordination." You looked at the purple and white packaging, "freddo frog faces?"

Angel smiled, "from the land down under, I got them at the international section."

You opened the packet and took a sniff, "they smell good."

You held it in front of Manny's face and he took a sniff, "it doesn't smell like our chocolate."

You shook your head, "no, our chocolate has butyric acid it was a mistake to start with but it became part of the brand."

Angel smiled, "crikey mate, you're one top Sheila."

You shuttered at his terrible accent, "if you ever do that again, you are never going to touch my naked body ever, understand?"

Angel smiled and kissed you, "understood."

i got bored and decided to take requests from friends :) enjoy @revallala <3

arcade shenanigans; suna rintarou

things to know: one-shot, fem!reader, fluff, lowercase intended, established relationship, tsundere suna, suggestive language, he's such a dork and simp, sorry for the atsumu slander </3 i promise i love him

the arcade was your favourite place to go on the weekends. it always has been ever since you were younger.

it wasn't childish or anything, arcades were almost like your safe place at this point. there was no need for an occasion, you'd just find yourself at one. sad? arcade. happy? let's go to the arcade. want to be alone? once again, the arcade. you didn't have to do anything there, you just needed to be there.

however, your boyfriend, suna rintarou, never understood why you liked the eye-blinding place so much. everything about it somehow irked him—the kids running around, how bright and childish it was, the food.

despite all those very valid reasons, there was one thing that pissed him off the most. it was the fact he could not win even if his life depended on it. he never openly admitted it, and he didn't wanna accept it either, but that's why he hated arcardes so much.

besides, he had another definition of fun. he'd find other things much more interesting, such as playing volleyball and video games, or recording the infamous twins fighting. he'd even consider being forced to play dress up with his little sister more amusing.

"but rin', you're basically playing video games here too," you tried to sway as the two of you walked through the entrance.

you asked suna to come down to the arcade with you this weekend. you had a busy week, not to mention, shitty as well. to your surprise, he said yes despite hating the place so much.

"she has a point, suna," the blond twin said as he stole some popcorn from his brother.

now, you initially wanted to invite suna only but of course, the twins overheard—atsumu in specific. to make things even better, atsumu's known to have a loud mouth. he ended up telling his best friends from volleyball about the plan and they invited themselves.

well, you won't villainize them that much. kita and aran asked you beforehand if it was okay for them to join. you wanted to spend some time with suna alone but didn't have the heart to tell them no.

it wasn't entirely bad either. you genuinely enjoyed spending time with the four. osamu always came in clutch with food, kita kept an eye on you like an older brother, aran never failed to make you smile, and atsumu... well, he's just atsumu.

"we'll be sitting at that table, alright?" kita mentioned as he pointed at a table in a far corner. you nodded and watched as aran, osamu and atsumu followed him.

one thing that caught your eye was how suna was discreetly following them while watching something on his phone. you pulled his arm, "where do you think you're going, huh?"

he sulked before retorting. "i'm gonna go sit with them, duh."

"no?" you were about to argue until you remembered he simply did not like arcades. suna being here with you was a huge step forward in the first place, there was no way you were going to mess it up somehow.

you kissed your teeth, a little irritated because of the situation. "okay fine," you started, "how about we play one game together and then you can sit with the guys. or even better, we can get out of here. how does that sound?"

"one game only?" he questioned, not believing you for some reason.

you nodded slowly, "do i look like a liar? one game only, i promise."

"yeah, you do look like one," he smiled. suna found his way to your waist, casually as he always does. he leaned in and kissed the side of your head, "what game are we playing?"

you gave in. you couldn't get upset with him, even if you really tried. "there was this new one that caught my attention last week, but it's a two player game so i never got to try it."

you and suna made your way to the front of the booth. it was a game similar to need for speed however it had to be co-op.

the booth had black curtains surrounding it for privacy and a few game posters in glass frames. once you stepped in, there were pedals for the accelerator and brakes on each side, as well as two seats that replicated drivers' seats. there were also two steering wheels and two controllers, indicating a player can choose one or the other.

the concept of the game was to escape a bank after robbing it whilst fooling the police. one player was supposed to be the pawn as the other got away with the money.

you two took your seats and decided who was going to be the decoy and runner. suna offered to be the decoy while you had to get away with the thousands of dollars.

before starting, you two fist bumped each other for good luck. it's something you and suna always did—kinda like tradition.

even before his volleyball matches, rather than providing him words of affirmation or doing anything too scandalous, you two would fist bump each other and he'd end up pecking your lips quickly.

the game started and you two were on the run immediately. suna's decoy was a black bmw m3 while your getaway was a white skyline gtr. you two drove together above a beach before splitting up.

this was when you caught suna taking things seriously. you'd find yourself glacing at him once in a while and noticed he decided to use the controller rather than the steering wheel—you did the opposite.

however, what really caught your attention was his smirk you'd see from the corner of your eye. he was legitimately having fun throwing cops off the road; and he had the nerve to call you childish for liking these games.

there was an immense amount of focus the two of you had. you don't know what gotten into him but it was getting you excited, it made you wanna win with him.

all of a sudden, suna took a look at the map on tbe corner of his screen. "oh shit, a cop's gonna-"

he got cut off when the sound of two cars colliding came from your screen. "-cut you off.."

"well shit," you exhaled, nearly having a heart attack when the crash occurred. you didn't expect suna to be so hyperactive, nor did you think the sound of the collision was going to be so loud. you took a deep breath in again to contain yourself, "come on, let's go now-"

you felt your arm get pulled back by suna. "hold on, let's play one more," he said stoically. although there was no emotion in his voice, taking a look at his body language gave you all the answers you were looking for. he seriously wanted to play again. "let's beat their asses this time, yeah?" he uttered, glacing at you subtly.

"let's do this then," you replied as he gave you another a fist bump.

it wasn't because he pitied you—he was genuinely having fun for once.

this time, you two finished the run successfully. the two of you kept an eye on your individual maps for more sneaky cop cars. suna was able to call it before one of them tried cutting you off this time.

he kissed the side of your head and grinned softly, "that was fun."

you'd never expect those words to leave his mouth. he didn't like arcades but finally managed to find something he liked. you were grateful he gave in and played with you.

you returned the same smile, "it was."

you ended up catching a cold. it was the end of the school day and it wouldn't stop raining. you had a sibling to pick up and guests coming soon so you took the risk and ran all the way back home while it was pouring.

you didn't come to school, yet alone leave your room. suna however, took that as an opportunity to go to the arcade without you.

he ended up dragging the twins along with him to find more co-op games in the arcade. he wanted to get a gist of them so when you two came here on another day, he'd be able to accompany you entirely.

"holy fuck, i hate this game!" the blond exclaimed while covering his face.

rintaro and atsumu had been trying to complete this game for the past thirty minutes. they weren't even close to getting an idea of it.

suna scoffed, "well maybe if you used your fucking brain for once, we could've passed this level."

the twin and his fox-eyed friend kept colliding into each other no matter how many times they tried. at one point, they were both yelling at each other—it was like a knife fight.

at that very moment, suna thought of you. he thought how easy it was to play with you because you knew the way he did things and vice versa. it was like telepathy between you two, there was no need to verbally communicate at all.

he wished you were with him rather than his idiotic, good for nothing friends. he missed you a bit.

"you calling me stupid rin'?" atsumu questioned, getting into his face.

suna sighed as he scrunched his face. "yeah, because you are! i could've brought my baby sister here and she'd do better than you."

osamu chewed on his chips as he watched as his brother and friend fight each other over an arcade game.

"here," he called out, putting his bag of chips down, "lemme try."

atsumu got out of the booth scoffing and osamu took a seat beside rintaro.

they were off to a really good start. this attempt was the farthest suna had progressed this entire time.

it was going so well and they were almost at the end of the level until osamu got distracted.

"'tsumu, stop eating my fucking food!" he yelled at his twin brother while sticking his head out the booth.

"no. no no no no no no no-" suna repeated rapidly as he saw osamu's character fall off the platforms. he could've sworn he saw the avatar fall in slow motion. it pissed him off.

suna stared at the the screen in disbelief, 'game over' written in bright red. he stared at it for so long, he was about to tear up. that machine was definitely laughing at him. it ate all his coins and he didn't even win the game. 

the twins outside did not stop their bickering either. he felt like the whole world was against him at the moment.

his intrusiveness got to him and he started hitting his head against the machine several times. he didn't know if it was because of the game or the twins.

"yo, suna," the grey haired twin said softly, almost sounding extremely concerned.

suna looked to his left just to see both of the twins staring at him. osamu's mouth was slightly open as his brows were raised. atsumu on the other hand scrunched his entire face and looked at his friend in the booth as if he was crazy.

"... you good?" atsumu asked cautiously.

rintaro just stared at his friends. he didn't say anything at all, he just stared at them with zero expression.

the twins started to back up a bit. "'samu, i think we should run," the blond whispered.

osamu just nodded, "i sense danger."

atsumu immediately faced his brother, "you think you're an empath? fucking idiot."

the twins continued to bicker. they got so carried away, they didn't realize suna had left the booth.

he was about to walk out the arcade until he saw a claw machine. there was one thing in there that caught his attention in an instant. a pink dinosaur.

everything in him told him to not walk towards that machine, but his legs moved on his own. the dinosaur just reminded him of you. there was no particular feature or anything, he just thought he'd get to see you smile if he did win it for you.

it took him a little too many tries before he was about to give up. he was so close to hitting his head against the machine again until a little boy came up to him.

"you want me to try?" the kid asked.

the tall brunette shrugged with his hands in his pocket, "it's all yours man."

the kid walked up to the machine and started explaining his strategy for winning. as he was talking, suna watched as the boy successfully won himself a blue alien.

"go on, it's your turn now."

he was in front of the claw machine again, taking a deep breath in and out. he really treated this as if it was a life or death situation. though it was... for his wallet.

he closed his eyes and did as the kid said.

as expected, suna had gone broke at that machine, but at least he didn't leave empty-handed.

when he had the pink dinosaur in his hands, he quite literally jumped up and down with the kid.

"you won't believe what just happened to me." suna had called you as soon as he was outside the arcade.

you sneezed when you answered the call. "bless you," you heard on the other end.

you couldn't stop sneezing. they just kept coming nonstop to the point where your guts would literally start aching. your eyes were watery, your nose was red, and your trash can was overflowing with tissues.

"fuck. thank you." your voice was extremely raspy. it was so different, suna had to double check he was calling you and not some random. "but go on, what happened?"

"so i'm at the arcade-"

your jaw dropped, "you? arcade? i don't believe it."

"believe it or not, i am," he sighed. "i'm gonna kill the twins."

you coughed up a laugh, "oh, please don't do that. if you are, just spare 'samu."

"if anything, i'm going to kill 'samu first."

he explained the entire situation to you, excluding the claw machine part because he wanted to keep it as a surprise. you couldn't help but laugh at his misfortune.

"rin', my insides already hurt," you explained while taking a deep breath in. "if you make me laugh again, i'm probably going to die."

"ha, ha, ha. very fucking funny," he mocked sarcastically while rolling his eyes.

suna listened to you laugh at his dry humour. it made his day so much better.

he looked down at the pink dinosaur he won for you at the claw machine and sulked. he thought you were an idiot for running in the rain despite knowing the outcome. it took him forever to win the stuffed animal and he was annoyed he couldn't give it to you—at least not until you were free of your sickness.

"just hurry up and get better. if i have to do this with the twins again, i'll probably commit several crimes."
