“Cybertron is the center of my universe. How is it not at the heart of yours?”

Cole!Trip’s anger is different from every other Trip’s anger. I think of it like a blue flame. It’s not as huge and consistent as other Trips’ anger is, which I think of as an orange flame. His Trip’s anger is quieter and more hidden behind a trained facade, but when you get too close or he gets too caught up and consumed by it, it’s hotter and more dangerous. But he works to keep it under wraps. Instead of immeditaly going to violence, he tries to shut down instead. Like in JFT when Marcia gets up and goes to Cherry, he shoves his hands into his pockets and maybe balls them into fists cause he feels the anger coming but he knows it’s best to just shut down. But then suddenly Paul is yelling and Cherry is denying and blaming them instead of the kid who stabbed Bob and it’s like gas is being thrown into what is normally his small and hot flame. Suddenly it’s like it’s exploding. It becomes a huge and blazing fire that consumes and burns everything in its path.

another dumb Phumpeem AU

But what if we go even more ridiculous. What if, in parallel to PhumPeem's slave deal, Fang also plays even harder to get and teases Tan by saying "Hmm, I don't know if I'm able to enter a relationship right now. I'm kind of very worried for Phum- he seems so lonely nowadays. Hasn't had a relationship in two years almost-"

And Tan being Tan, takes it to heart. He can't let his man be so worried for his little brother?? So what does he do? He plans on setting Phum up. Worse than any cupid work Pun has ever done.

He starts sending Phum dating profiles and going "aren't they cute? what do you think? do you feel any butterflies yet?" and Phum always answers with "???"

But then it gets worse. And Peem and Phum start spending more time together due to the deal, Tan also gets even braver with his plans. And one day Peem and Phum are out together and Tan walks up to them dragging a handsome man with him

He's like, "Phum! I have to introduce you to-"

And Peem is so confused?? Why does it seem like Tan is hooking Phum up with a random person he met like a week ago? What's going on? Thing is it doesn't stop there. Tan sends so many people their way. Now Phum can't go anywhere without someone walking up to him and being like, "Hey, I heard from a good friend that you're single and ready to mingle."

And it's all the funnier that it's especially happening when Peem is around, now that the friend groups merged and they are all hanging out together, Tan is more relentless than ever in getting Fang's little brother a lover.

It was amusing at first, but then Peem starts to get weird feelings whenever someone chats up a still very confused and flustered Phum. And then he realizes he likes Phum and the weird feelings become full on jealousy.

He tries to subtly tell Tan that he shouldn't bother, only to receive a "Ah? Why not? Phum is smart and handsome! He deserves a boo."

Then he tries subtly hinting that Tan doesn't need to bother because Peem is already interested, but it goes straight over Tan's head.

"I just think it's not necessary."

Tan cocks his head, blinks. "And why not?"

"Because-" Peem exhales. "Because I'm hanging out with him most of the time." Tan still looks confused. Peem wants to throttle him. "And- and he doesn't seem to want a relationship?"

"Ah, I see what's happening here." Peem tenses up when Tan points a finger at him. "You're jealous!"

"Huh? Well, I-"

"Don't worry, friend." Tan pats him on the shoulder with conviction. "We can find you a boo as well!"

Peem deflates, groans. "No need, Tan. For real. Don't even bother."

So now it's either Peem sucks it up and finally confesses to Phum so Tan can stop throwing pretty and handsome men his way, or he goes to Q.

"You need to help me stop Tan from trying to find Phum a boyfriend."

Q raises an eyebrow. "Why?"

Peem huffs. "Because. Just help me, alright?"

But Q understands the assignment completely wrong, or maybe he's just a lil shit because he just goes bluntly and tells Tan to stop it, and when Tan asks why, Q shrugs and says: "Do I need a reason? Alright. Have you considered that someone in our friend group may be head over heels for him and you're making it harder?"

Tan gasps, looks at a wide-eyed Peem, then back at Q, and asks softly, "You have a crush on Phum, Q? But- But what about Toey?"

Q's splutter is incoherent at best.

Peem puts his head in his palms.

How did you manage to handle not one, but FOUR separate accounts in fl? I recently made the account for my HD little guy but having to do the tutorial again just seems miserable

there's... weirdly several answers to that question, actually??

a HUGE part of it is due to the way FL is structured. the 10-minute action timer is a core part of the game on a fundamental level, and the fact that i can very easily run out of stuff to do on one character and thus have an excuse to quickly and easily swap to another is just... convenient? satisfying? i'm not entirely sure how to explain it. the fact that i can make progress even while i am fundamentally simultaneously Not Making Progress is like pure dopamine for my freak insane awful little brain. there's just something really pleasing about spending all of my actions pursuing The Goal Of The Day™ on one account before casually swapping to another and doing the same without feeling like i'm wasting time or acting to the first account's explicit detriment. the downtime helps! the recharge time helps! the structure really really works!!

i'm technically only actively playing three, maybe two accounts minimum. the only reason the fourth (the one that'll be my future BaL playthrough) currently exists at all is so i can get his earlygame completely out of the way now and not have to waste time running through it all later, when what i actually want to do is play the ambition i've made myself wait a full year to play. and also getting free goodies as seasonal stuff happens,, something something surprise tools to help us later. the only two accounts i'd say i'm really "actively playing" at the moment are caeru and lark- and of the two, lark takes the most priority, since his ambition is the one i'm currently pursuing in earnest. for a couple months now- despite being My Main FL Character- the scoundrel has actually been pretty inactive on a gameplay front outside of the occasional progression in TLC and discordance content. purely by virtue of having Very little left to do outside of Very long-term grinds and vanities. they're in their "now what?" "now you can start playing the game" era. they've graduated to previous protagonist background cameo in a sequel anime series. they're like the yin FLPC equivalent of red at the top of mount silver. they're Literally just vibing rn. i only keep posting about them regardless because i'm insane and i will never ever ever ever ever let that bat go. but yeah, big TLDR, outside of doing the bare minimum to keep making waves/notability up every week, i'm not actually spending that much time on accounts i'm not currently actively interested in playing. and that accounts for way more gaming spoons than you might think.

i have a virtually lifelong history of playing MMOs, especially and specifically world of warcraft. i was born in the endless grind for useless video game pixel vanities and/or bragging rights. molded by it. you all have merely adapted to doing the same piece of content a pointlessly excessive amount of times for literally no reason besides whimsy and folly. me? i've done my time. i've served my sentence. i've spent weeks doing the original burning crusade netherwing dailies. i've devoted days to running praetorium over and over and over again, back-to-back, nonstop, long before square enix cut it in half and made it NOT take at minimum an hour and a half per run. i've perfected my silverwastes + auric basin goldfarming strategies. i've (almost) crafted dragonwrath tarecgosa's rest. i've killed the sha of anger so many times its dying scream of agony is embedded into the very fabric of my being. ""only"" doing making your name content four times over? that is nothing to me. it means nothing to me. it is so infinitesimal i can do the persuasive seduction quests in my sleep. it's not a matter of handling misery, or having the capacity, or even sighing as i remember the brass embassy raid segment of the watchful questline seriously i don't know why i keep forgetting that exists or what even is my problem with it i just am so consistently mildly inconvenienced by it and its highly specific resource requirements and it is the worst thing ever. maybe i'm just so used to the scoundrel's near-infinite money and troves of disposable items that i've completely forgotten what being poor is like. despite having done that step 3 fucking times now. ahem. anyway. i have transcended the feeble mortal bindings of my resistant-to-grinding flesh and ascended to a higher plane of enlightenment, they may call me insane but they will be the ones left laughing when they see what that "insanity" has wrought, i've usurped them, i've usurped them all-

hacks and coughs and awkwardly clears my throat. i mean. uh. um. Ahem.

the empress' court artistry + tales of the university nerfs helped too.

Thoughts on the new DMC trailer?

Going to be honest I haven't watched any trailers since the trailer at the Game Awards (or whichever one I have those 2 breakdown posts for) 😅 I keep seeing the trailer announcements when I don't have my headphones on me, and I've been behind on watching them once I have the time... maybe tomorrow I'll finally get to watching them! Tonight I'm dead tired so I don't think I'd be in much of a good mood and I don't want to start off on the wrong foot, so to speak. When I watch them I can make a write up on it though! Would probably be fun.
