can't believe they gave us another guy. oh my god. so I guess Kelka is more, uhhh, more OOO then, and Fralio is Ankh? not that it matters too much, although they do seem to be doing something with the connected Riders so. who knows. anything goes! or if I may, anything gOOOes! god. of course they're the Ambition parallel. of course they are. oh my god.

fortunately there's nothing else they can throw at me right now that could possibly --

Nat Chen as CHEN YI KISEKI: DEAR TO ME (2023)

[stevieharringtonwifeguy]

ovulation being a hell of a drug that ends up getting steddie together like

eddie and queen bee stevie harrington who have a weird kind of friendship where they share like. Everything. not a single secret between them. like eddie's got stevie's cycle pretty much memorised and she knows about every inappropriately timed boner he's ever had. and they're talking one day, smoking, shooting the shit, and there's a second of silence before stevie's like. oh my god. im so horny im gonna die. and eddie's like huh what. and stevie goes like there's a stain on your wall that's kind of shaped like a sperm and that made me think about cum and now im all bricked up. my vaginas haunted. fucking sperm shaped stain.

and eddie's like. wait girls- ok you know what im saying this in my head and im realising this sounds dumb but like. i thought girls didn't like. Get Like That. like i thought random horniness at a stiff breeze was a guy thing

and stevie snorts like nope girls get it too we just get to hide it bc we don't get boners. swear to god there's like a week of every month where i get fucking possessed or some shit. robin says it's like a period thing

but you're not on your period?

and stevie's like no it's like. the opposite of a period. like your period is your uterus being like hey you fucked up you're not pregnant but Horny Week is your uterus being like okay im ready let's get a baby in there time to get pregnant you know what to do. it's called like. oval. something. oval something. im all fertile and my body's trying to trick me, the fuckn prick.

and eddie just kinda goes huh and then there's another second of silence where he tries very hard not to think about stevie being pregnant. and then stevie throws her arms up with a frustrated sigh like god DAMN it now im thinking about being pregnant and eddie's internally like well at least it's not just me

and anyway another joint later this obviously devolves into stevie shoving eddie's hand down her pants and telling him please it'll be so quick he doesn't even have to do anything and she just ruts against his hand while he stares at her bc he's so high and the girl he's basically in love with just told him how fertile she was and then started rubbing her incredibly wet pussy against his hand and he feels like he might pass out

they do this and more about once a month for like a year until stevie does actually get pregnant. her stupid uterus successfully tricked her 😔✊

[halfbaked00q]

I think we should put Bond in more "normal people" situations where like sure his spy-training social mimicry can get him by, but there's still a limit to what that can do and he will have to defer to Q to actually successfully navigate the situation due to his own lack of real-world experience and like, context with said situation.

[polysyndetonaddictsupportgroup]

hello I love love love pez dispenser debris with my whole chest. its my roman empire I treat it like its canon.

Its so fun going back and re-reading everything (but especially the social media parts) after seeing your Battle of Yokohama posts. Its not even a fic?? but still managed to make me emotional??

I also notice and appreciate how you're setting up the stage for the whole thing (?) with bakugou. Like. There's Izuku's subtle resentment that's barely noticeable to the naked eye. There's that starburst scar. There's the tremble in Little Izuku's hands.

But then the first time he's really introduced it's through KIRISHIMA's pov!!! Kirishima who only has a boundless supply of love and affection for him. Kirishima who says THIS line: "He’s fucking good, and he’s always known it, and there’s not a single person out there that could ever change his mind about that. "

And the Audience shifts uncomfortably in their seats. They exchange nervous looks. They can hear the Greek chorus in the background. But they don't get the chance to make excuses or hide from reality because immediately after? We find out the awful, heart wrenching detail of that injury....you know, the on that left that starburst scar?

THE DREAD THE DICHOTOMY THE DISSONANCE

its gonna be a shitshow and i am HERE FOR IT

I’m so so glad you like it!

I won’t confirm or deny anything with Bakugou but I am very excited for my plans for him in pez. I hope y’all like it as much as I do.

Bakugou’s one of those characters that I had to shelve for the sake of pacing. The inclusion of some characters precludes certain plots or storylines or arcs for the other characters. So I sort of push them back to give the other characters a chance to breathe.

Yagi had the same issue. None of the very early events in pez would have worked out right if Yagi had been there, because he would have showed up to the hospital room, and putting All Might himself in the room is just a fucking grenade toss into the life of any version of Midoriya Izuku.

It’d fuck up the pacing. “All Might” affirming Izuku’s story kicked off Theory Four for Tiny Izuku. Having All Might in the room from the start would have fucked with Izuku’s initial reliance on theories 1-3, the start of his relationship with Hitoshi, his first meeting with the class, all of it.

So Yagi ended up shelved for the open of action so Tiny Izuku and Hitoshi and Aizawa could have their time developing before his presence pulled the pin on the grenade, so to speak. Which culminated in making up a nebulous fake gala in America for him to be attending and tossing in some jokes about how his agency fucking hated his guts.

It helps with the pacing. Aizawa can’t properly build tension if Yagi’s there to help smooth things over or sort of take the lead on this from the start. There’s a chance (not a good one, but a chance) that Yagi could have swooped in and convinced Aizawa to let him handle this had he been the one to arrive at the hospital wing first. If he had been an option, Izuku probably would have called him first and tried avoiding looping in Aizawa at all.

Aizawa’s had time to start understanding just how fucked this entire thing is. Every single point of his investigation uncovers new abuses with terrifying implications, and the fact that Yagi knew something from the beginning hangs over him throughout like a specter. And by the time Yagi finally comes off the shelf, Aizawa’s at the point of boiling over. It culminated in that contentious, infuriated discussion in the halls that wouldn’t have felt realistic for me if Yagi had been there from the beginning. Aizawa needed to hold his student’s burnt and bloody shirt in his hands and have to wonder if Yagi knew about this to get to the point where he’s punching lockers.

Bakugou’s got the same issues as Yagi. He’s the pin on a grenade that gets pulled as soon as he gets involved. Without even touching on how Izuku got injured, he’s just too tangled in Izuku’s canonical past to properly build up narrative tension and let the other characters slowly figure out how they occupy this story.

Like, obviously I won’t say what I’ll do with him in pez, but it’s one of those things where it’d utterly fuck the narrative pacing if he was involved from the start. It would feel rushed and off balanced. The overall story needs more time to build tension before really addressing him.

So he ends up on the shelf for the first part, and I have him be in the gym without his phone because he exercises without music like a psychopath. The other characters get to meet Tiny Izuku without him Right There, already knowing him and being able to be questioned about what the fuck happened.

Then, when he finally shows up, he gets a very slow assimilation into the narrative. He’s only there in flashes. He’s not doing much actively because he’s trying to talk to Izuku first. We don’t see his POV.

I personally love sitting on a POV, as like, a writing mechanic until the time is right. It’s just so useful for building conflict and avoiding reveals until the perfect moment.

The entire class has a very different understanding of Izuku and Bakugou’s relationship than what happened in canon. Half of them low key believe Kaminari’s theory that they were each other’s disastrous gay awakening and that’s why they were at each other’s fucking throats when school began.

Both Bakugou and Izuku are in a very interesting position where they’ve had the (questionable) benefit of growing and changing and building major relationships without the people in their lives knowing about their past. Now, they’ve found out about Izuku’s past, and he feels like the foundation of those relationships are getting ripped out. Pez is playing a game of jenga with their interpersonal relationship right now. They haven’t figured out yet if the entire tower comes down.

One of my mutuals opinions is the "bro code" thing, that Curly is one of those guys who wouldn't care about the victim because the perpetrator is his friend and I'm really banging my head on the wall like that other anon. I've only played through the game once but Curly's behaviour/reactions etc read completely different from the "bro code" thing and I have to wonder if my mutual and I even played the same game.. like the constant digs at him from Jimmy, his body language in his face reveal and so on like you mentioned in your post. While this game is a little different obviously, it kind of reminded of a point in Alice Madness Returns that makes it very clear that Alice's pain blinded her to the abuse of the other children and her failure to act earlier because of it. Curly is guilty of a similar inaction but it doesn't change the fact he was a victim of Jimmy too. I don't think I can look at it any other way because both of these games have really stuck with me.

I genuinely think it really is the idea that people want a simple easy to blame problem and the idea that the only relatable victims of abuse are those that "surpass" it or do a lot to help others. When it comes to victims, especially those that don't fit the typical demographics, who either accidently perpetuate it, enable it or aren't ideal in some way shape or form, people jump to ignore what they went through as it's easier than dealing with those conflicting sentiments.

The bro-code conversation in Mouthwashing stems from a concept I generally dislike that there had to be something about Curly that made him meet or keep being friends with someone like Jimmy. I think people genuinely underestimate how many like decent and good people just know an asshole or are friends with someone who is really bad outside of their view/established dynamics. The game makes it clear none of the inaction against Jimmy is because of a lack of care, it is a lack of understanding from the privaleged postions they have as men to not have to worry about what Anya does/went through and the type of extremes men like Jimmy will go through to cover it up. They are all too preoccupied in their own strifes.

Another thing I see being oversaturated the idea that you have to be a freak, misanthrope or have a disorder to do the thing Jimmy does. The game is an escalation, it's a spiral that I don't see people comment on that Jimmy was not likely having the mood swings and episodes of rage/frustration we were seeing in the game. This is after they all start experiencing the worst moments in their lives that he got THAT openly bad. Of course, this is just my interpretation but much like in real life, people that go to extremes like that usually live mundane lives. It's a pressure cooker affect to where the stress made them pop. It's self inflicted but still the case.

I really think people need to be more willing to acknowledge that not everything needs to be an extreme or in black and white or easy to understand. It doesn't need to be happy or have an answer or solution, especially in the cases where the abused sadly helps perpetuate what they experience. It's not he should've known better from experience or shouldn't he have known what could've happened because victims tend to not like to think in matters of the worst. Not to mention, especially in cases of abuse where it feels so personally directed that you don't expect to happen to someone else.

okay just one more little thing. and then sleepy time

[gifti3]

the goverment is definitely figuring out this alien situation asap right?? cause whats happening currently is not feasible in the long run is it not??

im sure they are trying to maybe figure it out...probably, but part of me feels like it is not being treated with the seriousness it should be by them, which ig is in character LOL

pretty much relying on one guy (who doesnt even wanna be doing this) is actually scary

and the mc still has to like 'encourage' him to do it, tho its much easier in the 'ray ending' for sure. that man just wants to live a regular life with mc (unfortunately for him that means continuing to be binary star and dealing with aliens)

and if i was a citizen and knew this id be panicking

like yea u have these other heroes helping and stuff which im sure looks comforting from an outside point of view! but like the actuality is that its ray keeping things afloat

AND ON THE TOPIC OF THE MC, i was definitely in my head like....wouldnt rays superiors (managers??) get like curious about them? like no way theyre not being nosy about it after a certain amount of time passes. it really feels like something that could be leveraged against him,,, (if there is fic about this pls send it to me lol)

honestly i feel like mc and rays relationship would have moments of high stress. like there will be good times but also the bad times will also be there and its sometimes gonna be because of outside factors they cant control

[lemodoe]

along the lines of the 'jonathan sims would not survive in malevolent' post I am here to posit that he would Also not survive in wolf 359. like you dont even understand it would go So Badly. he would be Too Adamant on figuring out the whole conspiracy thing Way Too Soon and would probably end up shot as soon as the si-5 team shows up. he'd just get too involved. eiffel's survivability is still up in the air though.

Pupper tears au

Kyle, see Nightwing new dog friend for Hayley: oh hey little guy - *Wally, the dog, bite his hand* oh.... aaaaaAAAAHHHHHHH

---

Wally, shifts into his human form alone with Kyle looking him dead in the eye as naked as a junebug: nobody is gonna believe you. *Shifts back*

Kyle: I hate you ladybug, I hate you so much...

----

Wally, on Kyle lap sleeping:

Kyle, who has to pee badly: oh, oh I know why you were sent to the pound.

---

Kyle: and then, Hal just left Guy there, guy punched for breaking a mug, a regular mug too like one you see in the shops

Wally, doggy form, enjoying this tea:

---

Someone Kyle pissed off: I'm going to kill you shrimp!

Wally, attack the person because only he gets to terrorize the twink:

---

Wally and Kyle being super close, spends so much time together, are just two besties: I hate this mfer with a passion.

Dick: Kyle can you stop beefing with my dog, this is getting weird.

Kyle: he is the devil reincarnated, D, trust me!

Dick: do you need the migraine meds again, your head hurting?

Kyle: ... Maybe

---

Kyle: so yeah this little shit now follows me when Nightwing leaves or does bat stuff.

Connor: ... You made enemies with a dog that protects you from the many people you piss off?

Kyle: listen... Warn me before you call me out in front of this demonic beast.

Wally, brought Connor his ball to play flash ball, waggy tail:

Connor:

Kyle: he is nice to other people, somewhat.. I made a flow chart of his hatred.

Connor, throw ball and watch Wally zoomed past and brought back happily: I want to study you, I mean this as a good thing.

Kyle: yeah yeah play with the dog.

speaking off the other electric type gym leaders, do you think clemont would know them? do you think the other members of the league knew about the crisis? do you think they wanted to do something to help? and if they do know each other, do you think post crisis some of them made a beeline to kalos?

and if your au also sets in the galar/kalos is part of the same island mass theory, do you think they heard what was happening and wanted to get involved or something? because... you know the sub-theory that the war was between Kalos and Galar

-⚡ (my personal headcanon is that they do know each other and that volkener and clem have a sorta petty rivalry between inventors. (siebold and clemont too. but thats more silly because professional chef working in a fine dining setting, vs a teenage who maybe sleeps in his own gym and probably lives off instant noodles when he isn't cooking for others.))

Hmm, for me, I would say he has a passing knowledge of them? Like that academy he went to probably covered some notable Type users and all that, and when he was fiddling around on the web for inspiration/appliances/going on the Pokemon equivalent of eBay and checking out antiques, he's seen their name around. Similarly, Gym Leaders from other regions would've heard of Clemont (moreso as the rising young Gym Leader who's also a great inventor) and were like 'cool, what an inspiration to young folk everywhere' and proceed to forget about him. Clemont isn't very sociable, and while he was enamoured by the stuff other Gym Leaders, especially Electric Type users, would've done (like amusement park by Elesa or whatever zany thing Volkner made up on the spot), he was much too shy about it. Easier to just reverse-engineer it and figure out how it ticks from the safety of his own (totally not safe for his back) room. And then he had his problem with the Gym and you know the drill.

It's most probably after the whole journey that he mustered the courage to talk to the others and connect with the other Gym Leaders all around the world heh. Throughout the journey he became more aware of the Gym Leaders in Kalos and actually got to know them well (and through the Crisis everyone got to know each other better), and that kickstarted Clemont's desire to see how everyone else was like.

Surge would be a bit dismissive until he heard about the Crisis and Clemont's role in it (he would totally break down at that and just care for him so much, I can tell you that). Very tough love but also a great listener, makes sure that he's keeping well and not getting too lost in his work.

Wattson is just going to be a crazy grampa in the corner isn't he lol. But yeah, very much going to push him into 'renovating' Prism Tower into a death trap (but a fun one!) and telling him to have fun (he knows about the Crisis and this is his way of helping him, but to be honest he would've said this regardless). May or may not have a rivalry with Volkner, in which...

Volkner is just a little (a very tiny miniscule) impressed by Clemont. But would not say it. He expects so much more than that, don't you know, that's just childs play and if he was really into it he would've done so much more. They both have petty squabbles but then five minutes later they are dragged away by their Luxray from taking down particle colliders or smth idk.

Elesa had a very superficial relationship with him before, having met through friends-of-a-friend kind of deal. They make small talk, try to connect, and then after some time one of them admit something deep and then boom, penpals lol. She bugs him for good fashion in Kalos and he gets her back by requesting schematics of various mechanical attractions in Unova. Basically trading for their interests while also having some support on the side :3

Sophocles is totally roasting him online the first time they meet. They both get into this thread where they argue about something that they totally forgotten and just go on and on until they actually meet face to face. It's a love-hate relationship with collabs and everything, and they will simmer down one day. Eventually. Hopefully. (Soph has heard of the Crisis and done so much study but has not connected two and two and two together with Clem and also with a certain Ash having just come out from there. He's busy, okay?)

Iono scares him but he doesn't say it outloud. Very interesting with the whole livestream! Just not being on the livestream. He's also interested in those Magnemite hairclips and the concept of Terastallization but maybe he better make sure he's not broadcasted on 10 million screens before talking to her.

Going to be honest here and say that's the first time I've ever heard of that theory myself, but then again I haven't dived too deeply about it. Most of the ones I've saw were about how Kalos had an internal war (this is a great one btw heh), which made sense to me, although I do like the idea of Galar going up against Kalos (especially with the gimmicks and the problems they faced). Hoenn is definitely connected to the Crisis itself and has offered aid, and ngl I feel like most of the regions are nice enough to try to help at this point, since either they went through their own problems beforehand or have that feeling of foreboding that they are next. The Pokemon World is very idealistic in that sense! People do tend to travel around, so there are a lot of connections all over the world.

Modern au

I dunno i feel like Manon in sickness recovery is just.. doing things wrong.

Example:

She’s recovering from an illness that had her bed ridden for like 3-4 days. When she’s finally responding to meds and feeling much better (keyword is better, not recovered) she’s out there acting like she’s not still getting over her sickness.

Dorian was laying down in bed next to her one evening. Manon remembered something and she just— bolted out of the room. Dorian barely blinked and she was out of the bedroom already.

While he was still trying to make sense of that, he waited for Manon to return. But she didn’t. Nearly five minutes passed before he heard call for him.

Because she is still recovering from sickness. She isn’t at full health yet but the way she sped out of the room? Just leaving the bed and out of the door in under a second? Yeah, witchling, you only do this when you’re healthy because of course everything spinning now and you can’t even stand up just take it easy for few more days okay??

Dorian was kind of amused but also not while he carried her back to bed because sudden movement like that is not going to work. Not in her condition. Like not even 24 hours ago he was with her at the hospital and now that she had a few doses of the many meds she was given she just thinks she can do this??
