How do partygoers blend in?
Good Question!!
Well, here are some small facts about em. It seems they've been improving their game, huh. :]
In rare cases, they DO wear black hoodies to blend in much better at night. But they usually avoid wearing black clothes since it's a very boring color to them. (They'd rather kill with style.. they got standarts too, you know.)
#backrooms au#Questions#level fun#partygoer#i've been taking a while to post things#sorry about that!#i've noticed some new asks >:]#i'll be responding to every one of em#stay tuned for more!

Anaxa fingers you like he'd stuff a chicken
#I'm so sorry but he's so eager to do well and so focused that he ends up completely tuning out how you're responding#he's so In The Zone and focused on not coming in his pants at the wet feeling around his fingers#and he ends up just jabbing them in there because it makes a delightful sound#his curiosity works against him here guys#sorry but this nerd has the most beautiful fingers imaginable but no intuitive grasp on how to use them#crow screaming

Au where Caspar is an older gentleman with a one man podcast rambling into the microphone and that's the podcast. A sleep pod, if you will. A cast that is designed for other people with insomnia to keep people compnay and space out to and listen vaguely to instead the late night bedtime thoughts.
He comes up with stream of conscious lullabies and pauses when he realizes he goes onto different tangents that stop making sense. Almost putting himself to sleep mid podcast. Bedtime stories, he does his voices the way he would berate his poor son with stories and work them into the bedtime stories for the bits he'd do picking David up.
Thanks for reading my jumbled ass insomnia headcanon
#midnight burger#im just thinking of him in one of my comfort podcasts that does this#sleep with me podcast is literally this#its a great background podcast but like#the host is more like doug we love doug but doug would be a listener#except maybe post wayfaring stranger where he ;_; has a broadcast on the underground frequency#okay but Lief tuning in and listening and losing him mind#hed either hate it or think its hilarious#i think hed listen to it once and turn it off#esp if it ended up being caspar#ged think doug is goofy#its a very particular podcast#its one of the few times i dont mind being talked at because i dont have to respond to a conversation#i can tune out my own thoughts#i can opt in to listen and tune out the voice and idk its a good through phases and periods too#got me through 2020 holy shit

Bandee and Starstruck 🎀💖
starting off my february starstruck dee ship-a-ganza with the big one. they do seem like... the obvious answer, huh...?

they have far and away the most development together and the strongest personal relationship, both in what i've posted, and in her story overall! would kill or die for each other in a heartbeat. i would be absolutely lying if i said i'd never thought about it, but i'm not 100% convinced my thoughts lead me to romance specifically...
they're already pretty insane about each other! starstruck in particular is madly in love with bandee in every way it's possible to be. loves him the way he loves kirby, i think (pretty sure he does not know this. might be shocked to learn it.)
however she's daft as bricks, so he'd have to initiate, and i can't really imagine anything in their relationship would change.... so he'd have to mostly want The Title or the Performance one way or another, and i'm not super sure he would!
#so... this comic is canon to her storyline and is meant to be read as platonic friendship for now!#but i'd be v interested to hear anyone else's thoughts on this pairing in particular!! COULD it be romo??? like.. sure! but how?#i think it would be super cute. but HOW?? i'm just kinda stuck. they're already nuts about each other. what else is there? qpp maybe.#loves him the way he loves kirby. devoutly. viscerally.#the spot carved out of your heart that's just the right size. pulse beating someone else's tune. it's not your palm you know best.#do you get what i'm saying. someone please read these tags and respond i gotta know i'm not the only one#'starflung is all your prose like /that/' yeah sorry. and this is why i don't share my writing lmao. pretentious loser#starstruck dee#bandana waddle dee#my art#my comics#🎀💖#gravitational collapse

"I don't like [this character] because they are imperfect and have demonstrable flaws"
uh yeah that's how plots work!
(did everyone read too much fluff fic or something where is this aversion to any kind of conflict/growth coming from??) (oooh no is this part of purity culture too like they want to only see perfect people even in fiction because if someone isn't perfect they think it needs to be punished like the fucking Hays Code demanded comeuppance????)
#genuinely where does purity culture end???#i hate it i hate it i hate it#this was responding to discourse about The Pitt which i have not tuned into but like its s1 of COURSE people have to DEVELOP as CHARACTERS#what is the show they want??? a bunch of people doing their jobs competently???

I feel bad because Ayo is clearly legitimately pissed about the baseball video of her and Jeremy blowing up like this and her feelings are valid but in my extremely unprofessional and not at all certified PR perspective - she/her team are handling it SO BADLY.
Deleting her tik toks or IG pics, not dropping another vogue partnership video that (allegedly) was coming today, reposting that video about filming people in public - BABY THE STREISAND EFFECT!!!
The more rattled you seem, the more the internet is going to think they caught you at something and the harder they're going to read into everything. Hell, half the people who saw the video were like "oh this must be a marketing strategy" and while that makes literally no sense because you don't promote a ~platonic~ friendship by stirring up dating rumors, it was still something people were willing to believe. She should have posted "anyway The Bear Season 3 airs June 27th! Go cubs" on her IG story and kept it pushing
#ayo edebiri#jeremy allen white#someone made a tweet comparing her and jeremy to Kerry/Tony and Andrew/Danai and they could never#while the natural chemistry that makes people respond so strongly to them is there#it's like they get mad when people notice#whereas Kerry and Tony break that shit out to boost their engagement whenever they feel like it#YEARS after their show ended#and while I kinda don't think Andy is that calculated#he's earnestly obsessed with Danai and clearly doesn't give a fuck who sees#And I think Danai is tuned in enough to use it for promo when necessary#It feels like Ayo/JAW are going to put in a bunch of effort into not being friendly or affectionate from now on#when they could simply go the other way#go so far over the top that everyone is left too baffled to really speculate

if I could indulge in one "it's played for laughs and not that deep, but anyway" approach to fiction, I love that sam sheepdog and ralph wolf's relationship develops from them being civil co-workers, to friendly neighbours, to living together by the end of the shorts.
#looney tunes#cartoons#videos#it's like listen I completely get that the comedy comes from framing wolf and sheepdog as jobs in a mundane workplace scenario.#including all the niceties and familiar domestic settings an audience will recognise and respond to.#but also look at it.

as someone unfamiliar with date everything, labeling a fic as 'don't read this until you've Realized keith' keeps getting a chuckle out of me. do not read unless you Understand him as i do. you must Realize that his bastardness is his best quality. only then will you be able to place your eyes upon mine masterpiece.
LMAO this is SO funny, i actually love this read 😂
DON'T ✋🛑🚫 read my fic if your 🧠BRAIN🤯 has not been 🗝️UNLOCKED🔓✨ to the possibilities of keith's ⬇️HIDDEN DEPTHS🕳️, lest you prove yourself UNFIT to receive my 🔮ESOTERIC💎 wisdoms✨
#in all seriousness i wouldn't prohibit anyone from reading just bc they aren't convinced YET. bc i want to make u convinced.#but you have to be nice to me 🫵#put on your dateviators and tune up that suspension of disbelief bc i'm taking u for a ride and ur going to like it#or don't that's fine too#grateful to all my readers but please read responsibly#someone called my fic ''ragebait'' and while they thankfully made it clear through context that this was a compliment i#wasn't entirely sure how to respond to that lol#date everything spoilers#keith date everything#date everything keith#keith date everything spoilers#my fic#nemo me impune lacessit

Get to Know You Better Tag Game
Thanks @themildmahariel for the tag on this one!!
Tagging @silent-words @nevarrantorte @in-the-drowning-deep @themagistersbirthright @tevivinter if you'd like to join in <3
Last Song: Scars by Dirty Honey (this band is sickkk--discovered them when they opened for Slash a few years back!)
Favorite Color: Pink! or purple.
Currently Watching: Chicago Fire (if half-paying attention while someone else is binging it counts as watching) (I do like it though)
Last Movie: oh jeez. I don't remember the last one I watched all the way through. Caught the second half of Jaws on TV last weekend though (faaaave)
Sweet, Savory, or Spicy: Sweet, without question. getting a piece of chocolate as we speak. i deserve it
Currently Reading: I... hate to admit this, but I haven't been much a reader for a long while. 😭 I want to read some of the DA books at least... I will... eventually...
Current Obsession: Dragon Age! in case it wasn't obvious.
Currently Working On: What I should say is "my fics." But that's barely been happening lately. So instead what I'm really working on is giving myself grace for that, and not beating myself up so much for not having the energy for all the things I want to do sometimes. you can't pour from an empty cup.
#y'all have no idea how much shame i feel for not being a reader anymore lol#i used to be that kid who could devour several books a week#now i pick one up and fall asleep it's terrible#(audiobooks don't help either. i don't enjoy that format at all. i'll just tune out)#i can't even commit to reading fics that aren't oneshots most of the time#'but how are you a writer if you're not a reader?' oh believe me i am barely a writer these days too#anyway! also gonna admit that the first responder shows are a guilty pleasure of mine#yes i watch 9-1-1. yes i'm still crying over what they did to [redacted].#tag game#brooke.txt

Mars, you have a lot more patience than I would at this point gdhfkjgdsfg. If you'll allow me to choose violence for a second:
-
Hi anon! Did you know you can engage with other people without interpreting every word they use in the worst way possible, making a million assumptions about their background and prescribing opinions to them they've explicitly told you they don't have?
I don't even disagree with all of those rebuttals, but if you want people to engage in discussions with you you have to treat them like human beings, not your opposition in a court case. What are you expecting to get back when you act like this? About nonexistent fingers in his ass guy?
You should at least have got off anon and owned what you said- unless you're using anon to block evade, in which case you should consider respecting people's boundaries.
:D waow…. feeling very cared for in this chili’s tonight
#ask#lyre#as for my patience: yeah i am a bit more patient than i’d like to be#but anons like that are enrichment to me lmao#i try not to feed the trolls but there’s smth very satisfying in showing someone that they have failed to get under your skin#it was how i dealt with troublemakers/bullying in school as a kid ^_^#in one of my art classes (8th grade i think? so like 12-13yo) there was a kid who just refused to follow any directions#and would also try to distract and annoy everyone else#it pissed me off. so i decided i would literally just pretend he didn’t exist#he would get my attention and i wouldn’t respond. he’d try to startle me#wouldn’t even flinch. i got to the point where i could look Through him#it pissed him off so bad. i think i lowkey crave returning to the level of power i felt in that moment#anyways i employ a similar strategy with these types of anons. i’m trying to have Less patience with people but i’m not an angry person?#i don’t experience anger at individuals very often#i DO however have a strong competitive spirit and a trickster’s sense of humor#(yes i was raised on looney tunes can you tell)#so i laugh whenever ppl try to get under my skin like that because. heheheheee they’re madddddd they’re soooo angry#and it must piss them off sooooo bad that their words don’t make me feel bad :(( poor thang#this is probably a character flaw of mine in excess. but right now it’s funny#and hey if someone is gonna refuse to treat me with respect i think i’ve earned a few potshots right

i get so uncomfortable when coworkers tell me they're reading my body language or interpreting my facial expressions. like. don't you have anything better to do. leave me alone.
#i'll concede that there are some expressions that are most likely representing a certain emotion or reaction#but it's weird to me to suggest that you can read nonverbal communication like it's an exact precise language#like if i'm grimacing in a meeting it's probably a headache not a reaction to what someone said#and it feels almost...dismissive of my interiority? to suggest that i made x expression and that automatically means i feel y#that people are machines who always respond to an input the same way?#also in my experience the people who claim to be the best at reading people are. not in tune with reality#my former boss always bragged about being able to read people soooo well and a lot of those people hated her#and have told me that now that we don't work with her anymore

Tfp soundchet what are your headcanons. How do they meet? Did they like eachother prewar? Do they continue to have one-sided feelings for megatron/optimus? How do their teams react? How do the kids react? I need a 34 page doc rn
okay, so in my mind there are no one-sided feelings for Optimus + Megatron, mainly bc neither one of those ships are my cup of tea and I don’t really like them anymore sorry gang 😭
I think they probably had chance encounters when Soundwave was on the Council and stuff, but avoided Ratchet bc of how often his mind sort of sparked w/ agitation and annoyance constantly and SW was kinda like yeah don’t need that thanks and left him alone (Ratchet never noticed any of this)
they’d meet officially through Orion and Megs bc yknow, and Ratchet after awhile became the twos sort of private doctor bc he didn’t like how the Gladiator medics were doing it and they both got along a lot better than expected (also SW’s cassettes really like Ratchet too bc he treats them like actual individuals which automatically made him worthwhile in SWs eyes)
I think they formed a very tentative relationship together after some blooming feelings and a not so subtle push from the cassettes, it was kept quiet from Orion and Megs, it was a very sweet baby’s first relationship type deal and SW would get to confide in his telepathy w/ Ratchet which he took in stride though of course that would burn in flames when the war started me thinks. Ratchet would be left angry and resentful while Soundwave tried to bury any remaining attachments, but he’s sad and lonely and doesn’t want to admit it
After a lot of encounters in the battlefield and forced time together they.. kind of talk it out? As much as these two possibly can? It takes a bit to put it lightly but they kind of continue their relationship, with both of them doing what they can to keep the other safe (eventually they make the horrible decision to bond but yknow, it’s easier than trying to be in the same place together ig)
After the series, Ratchet is (somehow) able to convince the Autobots that leaving SW in the shadow zone is super unethical guys 😭 can we at least throw him in prison 🥹 and everyone’s sort of like yeah okay ig 😒 and then after a little more convincing SW eventually gets to be under house arrest at the base with Ratchet and they live on Earth together now yippee!!! They keep their relationship on the down low of course but probably get caught by Miko or something and both of them decide to play it off as something that happened totally during SW’s time under house arrest and never before I promise
#I think that’s it honestly#I do actually plan writing a fic about that last part so stay tuned ig#Also dw your ask didn’t sound mean 🙏#red responds#tfp#transformers#maccadam#soundchet#soundwave#ratchet

I can imagine a scenario during the war where Wu, Acronix, and the previous EM of Ice are all meant to be the seers of the Elemental Alliance, and they're all huddled around a bunch of Spirit Smoke, trying to trigger any possible future outcomes/visions.
#I think Wu doesnt have inherent vision powers but the spirit smoke responds to him greatly because of how in tune he is with spirits#he meditates a lot which makes him sort of a spirit magnet#which is why spirit smoke shows so much#the spirits of time smile greatly upon him#spirit smoke on a seer can typically trigger their visions#and on a master of time it can help them more clearly understand each outcome#i think visions are inherently tied to ice#a friend mentioned the ice caves when i brought the ice ems have visions idea and i havent been normal since#i think when the first em of time stole the power from cloud kingdom#an amount of vision powers somehow stuck themself to the element of ice. thus all ice ems get visions#ninjago#raine's rambles#raine's lore#wu ninjago#ninjago wu#master wu#acronix ninjago#ninjago acronix#ice ninjago#ninjago ice
