Whos the silly lil guy with the hat in azalea valley?? They look so cute I'd love to know more about em
his name is Julián Quispe and he's one of the OCs my friend Berurun (@flying-in-a-starry-sky) currently has in the rp group! Beru also owns Demian, the werewolf guy!
Tumblr media
you just gave me an excuse to gush about one of my friends' OCs so thank you for that bc I absolutely adore them all :'Dc
a Peruvian cook, Julián is an absolute sweetheart! a really chill fella with an almost infinite patience. He's 28 years old (4 years older than Nohreh) but looks a lot younger bc of his laid back and fun attitude, he's a bit of a clown and always makes me laugh ;__;♥
he traveled around South America learning old and forgotten recipes and landed in Azalea Valley as his last stop. He met Demian during his stay in Chile and became friends with him and his family, that's why they're always around each other in my drawings (Beru sometimes rp them at the same time since they're both Nohreh's friends).
he also just learned the fact that supernatural creatures exist and he's really excited about it, he didn't know it could be possible and always thinks about them as possible new friends haha! he also has a bit of shared history with my second playing character I have in the rp group (who I should introduce here too now that I think about it...)
you can find a few more drawings about him on Beru's IG (instagram .com/beruruun/) but she doesn't really post her drawings online that much, I'll see if I can bully her into posting a few more she has about Julián on any of her accounts hehe

common questions about Au
received a lot of questions from @chokehoe /thank you very much :D/ to make it more interesting, I've made it into a topic, and I've made some sketches! hope you enjoy!
So for your au where gojo locks geto in his basement, dose geto hate gojo now? Like I can imagine and understand why because he locked him away in basement, but I need to know.
This is a question I've answered before /You can search the hashtag, I could write more about it there/
He takes offence to it, of course, I don't think anyone would like someone locking you up. He still has love, Satoru is not a stranger to him after all, but there will be resentment. I think by the time Yuji shows up, their relationship will be very strained
Also does suguru use Yuji to get himself out? I feel bad for Yuji if so because then he’s gonna be stuck in the middle of that whole fiasco
I think he might take advantage of Yuji's kindness /oh yeah, manipulative Geto/ I think he'll want to get Yuji to take something from Satoru's room / and Yuji will have doubts about Gojo's mental stability/ If Satoru spots him, it's gonna be really creepy….
Tumblr media
Was gojo just going to keep suguru locked in his basement forever, or did he have some other plan like suguru becoming a teacher?
I don't think he has any plan since he did it all on emotion. And I don't think Satoru will let him go anywhere now. Maybe he'll try to re-educate him /or maybe he's just calming himself down with these thoughts of re-educating/
Dose suguru have a plan for what he’s going to do if he does get out. Are nanako and mimiko ok in this one?
I think Suguru is just thinking about escaping right now. But even if he does, Satoru can easily find him by scent, will he have enough time to go somewhere before Satoru realises he's escaped? And if he is caught, will Satoru become even more insane? Suguru could also end his life if he realises that he has no other choice /I don't miss that thought/.
Nanako and Mimiko gone and are doing the same things they do in canon
Does anyone else know he’s down there, either by gojo telling them or by finding out by accident?
So far, only Shoko and Yuji know. I'll mention that the action takes place after the alley when Satoru "ki-lled" Suguru. Shoko knows because she healed Suguru /yeah, glued his arm on, that's just how I want it to be/. I think Shoko accepted since Satoru probably scared her, and she doesn't want to lose Suguru. But she probably wasn't surprised by Satoru's decision. To put it shortly
Maybe Megumi and Nobara will start to suspect something if Yuji !accidentally! says something XD like
Yuji: ...haha, yeah, like that strange guy in sensei's basement. Meg/Nob: what
Yuji: what
Also, I can’t stop imagining if the basement was the laundry and gojo & suguru are having some deep conversation and all you hear is the washing machine going in the background.
omg it's interesting! I pictured this place as where Gojo dragged Yuji to. Because, in theory, it could have held Suguru. But maybe then he moved it to another location, as you suggested, or converted this basement into a more habitable space. That's how I imagine this
/the room is quite small, I drew it like this for easy reference/
Tumblr media
Has megumi or tsumuki walked into the basement because they needed something and just found suguru there and just didn’t know what to do so they just walked out, or do they not know? I feel like it would be funny but also creepy if they found suguru there because like the laundry used to be down there or something
Oh, this is gonna be really creepy XD I actually like this idea!
I think they'll get very scared and Megumi will probably encourage Nobaru not to ask Gojo since he heard from him about his ex-friend /understood from Gojo's description/ Since it's very strange and creepy, so better not to trigger Satoru
Why was gojos first thought to lock suguru in a basement in the first place?
I think he just realised that Suguru wouldn't be around him normally. And yeah, and he was determined to kill him.
Again, he did everything on emotion and from a selfish point of view. Also, I think he was just tired and just wanted to be around him all the time
@tug-tries-to-draw @morgraythedark @ediblespider @dreamhusbando @myssteriouss-wanderrerr you had similar questions, so I hope you find the answers here! If there are any more, I'll be happy to answer them! ⸜(*ˊᗜˋ*)⸝

My Hero Academia Chapter 430 Spoiler Talk: The True End of An Era (Part 1)
This is it, the final chapter of My Hero Academia. A series 10 years in the making has finally ended. It's really insane to think about. This series has done so much good for a lot of people despite the fandom's flaws. MHA was both people's introduction and even reintroduction to manga and anime. It's bittersweet to write about the final chapter, but I will do the best I can to honor the series I love. This is going to be a very long one. Also a lot of screaming.
Now, please, if you want to wait until the official translation releases on Sunday, PLEASE TURN AWAY NOW! Save this post and come back to it on Sunday when everyone has read the chapter. I will be using spoiler hashtags for this, so if you end up spoiling yourself because of my post, that's on you. THIS IS YOUR FINAL WARNING:
Here we go. We first start off with our Final Color page for the series! It's a gorgeous double-page spread featuring all Class 1-A (Now 2-A) kids that we've grown to know and love throughout the past 10 years including Shinso, Aizawa, and All Might of course. Izuku Midoriya AKA Deku, our beautiful MC who I will miss with all my heart and soul 💚, is leading the page and his friends towards the bright future they all fought so hard for. It's a wonderful way to conclude the series and I will make sure to get a high-quality version of it to use as my computer wallpaper.
The final chapter is titled "My Hero Academia" because of course it is 🥹. This was truly My Hero Academia.
OH FUCK WE GET A TIME SKIP TO THE FUTURE SOMEONE HOLD ME 😭
KOTA IS THE THE UA HERO COURSE AND IZUKU IS HIS TEACHER IT'S SO PERFECT FOR HIM!!!💚😭 I BET MR. AIZAWA AND ALL MIGHT WERE BIG INSPIRATIONS FOR HIM TO TAKE THIS PATH 🥹
IT'S ONLY BEEN 1 PAGE AND THIS CHAPTER HAS ALREADY ENDED ME IT'S SO JOEVER FUCK
BTW, Deku is saying a more optimistic version of the "Not all men are born equal" narration he told us at the beginning of the very first chapter of the series. Very nice way of bringing the story full circle.
Ok, the next 2 pages have a lot of things in them, so I'm going to try to sum it up as best as I can:
Izuku finally came home to see his mother, Inko, at their apartment and she looks happy 💚
All Might is out of his wheelchair and helping old Gran Tarino walk with a cane (how he still survived I have no idea).
All the kids running in their gym clothes in what looks like their second Sports Festival (god, what I'd give to see that in its entirety).
Miriko is very happy with her new prosthetics including one that looks like the Bullet Bill from the Super Mario series.
The kids struggling taking either mid-terms or finals written tests. Bakugo is still using his left arm to write, so I assume his right arm is still barely usable.
Shoji and Kota shaking some prominent mutant's hand I assume from their contributions towards the war.
Mt. Lady and Kamui Woods working together as usual!
Tokoyama meeting up with Hawks.
KOTA AND ERI HOLDING HANDS AND GETTING READY FOR SCHOOL WITH MADALAY'S APPROVAL THAT'S SO FUCKING CUTE 😭❤️🤍
Endeavor being followed around by his sidekicks and Hawks.
Aizawa and Present Mic visiting what I bet is Shirakumo's grave 😢
The fan translator says that the kids finally meet Melissa from the first MHA movie! We don't see her face, but I'll take what they say is truth.
Spinner's book selling and Compress reading it in jail.
Bakugo going through rehab to get his right arm back!
Deku and Ochako spending time in the snow.
OUR KID'S GRADUATION OH MY GOD MOST OF THEM ARE 18 THERE AND THEY'RE OFFICIALLY PRO HEROES I'M SO FUCKING PROUD OF THEM 😭❤️ Interesting though since none of them really look much older except for maybe Iida and Shoto, but it's hard to tell from the scans. And Bakugo and Monoma keep the crazy graduation tradition of blowing things up as their goodbye present to UA!
And finally, we see the embers of One For All slowly fade away in Izuku's hand until there's nothing left...
Oh, god. The time skip takes place 8 YEARS in the future geez. So, if this is 8 years since we left the kids in Class 2-A, they would be about 24-25 years old now damn. We're actually going to see them all grown up that's crazy.
The next page shows us a middle school class very similar to how we saw Deku and Bakugo at the very beginning of the series. The teacher asks them what they want to do in the future and we get to see small glimpses of other characters now such as Hatsume who has her own lab (go, girl!), and LaBrava who seems to own a company with Gentle!
The main kid we focus on in this class is Dai, the young boy with dark blue-ish dotted hair who was looking at the All Might statue in Kamino before the first war started (I don't blame you for forgetting; I had to look him up too). He says he wants to be a hero, but everyone else says that his Quirk is too weak for him to become one. Despite that, he still goes to the All Might statue (which sounds like has been rebuilt) for inspiration. Sound familiar? 🤔
Next we see Shoji accepting a prestigious award for his efforts in resolving mutant prejudice-based incidents! He looks SO BULKY HOLY SHIT DUDE 😳 And his hair got longer to the point of putting it in a ponytail! Also, Koda and the glue Class 1-B kid (I think his name is Bondo or something) are there to congratulate him too! I bet you that Shoji making it to the top 10 in the final popularity poll helped Horikoshi give him a little spotlight and it's a good way of following up on what happened after his bout in the Final War.
Next up, we see Ochako, Tsuyu, Momo, and Iida visiting schools across the country! Ochako has also set up a Quirk Counseling expansion project that's become one of the most essential things in the future society!
Ok:
1: It's hard to tell with Iida, but the girls all look slightly older especially with their hair being a little longer.
2: Their future costumes look great! It's not a 100% match to what we saw in Endeavor's vision, but it's still great! Iida's armor got more detail to them; Tsuyu's frog goggles got gogglier?; Momo is finally coving up her cleavage and showing less exposed skin took you 10 years, but you finally got there, Horikoshi; and Ochako's got updated headwear, the two dots on her outfit are side-by-side instead of on top of each other, and her collar thing looks similar to Deku's hero mask which I know was intentional.
3: Good for Ochako for doing something about Quirk Counseling. Definitely inspired by what happened with Himiko Toga. I hope this means that we won't have another incident like Toga had and that kids are now able to get help with their Quirks as opposed to being villainized. I hope Ochako's making good money out of this too for her family like she originally intended.
We also see a teenage Eri going to her music club with a guitar on her back! She has a normal girl's sailor uniform, so my best guess is that she's either still in middle school (I think she would be 14-15 at this point) or she's not in UA like a lot of us thought. Either way, she wants to pursue music instead of Hero work so I wouldn't be surprised if she didn't go to UA at all. It also looks like her horn did fully grow back, but whether her Rewind Quirk still works the same is up in the air.
And we see that Mr. Aizawa is still working at UA, BUT HE CUT HIS HAIR SHORT 😭 WHY DID YOU CUT HIS BEAUTIFUL, LONG LOCKS, HORIKOSHI??? OF ALL THE PHYSICAL CHANGES YOU GIVE OUR CHARACTERS THIS IS THE MOST DEVASTATING 😭
*BREATHS* But, he shows Deku and us a video of Bakugo SCREAMING AT A CIVILIAN FOR FILMING HIM TOO CLOSELY 😂😭 PLEASE NEVER CHANGE, KATSUKI BAKUGO 🧡 I'm also really glad he still got to be a Pro Hero despite his injuries.
AND NOW WE SEE MY SWEET FAVORITE BOY, SHOTO TODOROKI WHO CUT HIS HAIR A LITTLE SHORTER!!! I DON'T CARE WHAT ANYONE SAYS, I LIKE HIM BETTER WITH SHORT HAIR AND STILL LOOKS LIKE THE BEAUTIFUL PRETTY BOY HE ALWAYS WAS! STAY PRETTY, SHOTO!!! 🩵
Anyway, Shoto patrols day and night and is very nice to his fans! Kind king 👑! He's also become his own man to the public now as he's barley called "Endeavor's Son" anymore. That's a real relief because I know for a fact that that was haunting him for years. Also, there's a chance he'll pass Mt. Lady, Kamui Woods, and even Mirio in the rankings! I'm so proud of my fave! 🩵❄️🔥
GAH! I'm actually hitting a world limit here! I have to make a Part 2!

Kitty Cat
chapter 3 - "the internet cafe's loyal customers"
cat!scara x collegestudent!fem!reader
SYNOPSIS
You are just an ordinary college student, having friends, hard projects and surviving on a low budget. Every week, or saturday to be specific, you would come by your favorite cafe in town, Fatui Cat Cafe. It is such a calming and lively place for you after a busy week as a student. In the cafe, there's one cat that despises everyone, except you.
A/N :
i add a little change to the story. Before, it was Teyvat's Cat Cafe. But I changed it into Fatui's Cat Cafe, due to some stuff. Who knows? Maybe you'll know the story if you match it with the harbingers' actual lore..~
MASTERLIST - previous | next
Tumblr media
It was dark outside. All shops were closed, some of the are still open. But only a few. The scenery was lonely. Lonely streets were lighted by street lights that light up during the night time.
Next to Fatui Cat Cafe was a dark alleyway, they throw out their garbage and leftovers there.
It was quiet, too quiet. Until there was the sound of a door opening from the dark alleyway.
There was a male coming outside the door. He looked fishy, wearing a cap and is hooded with a black hoodie and is wearing jeans. He has indigo colored hair.
He was busy fixing his attire. When he was about to leave, he felt a hand on his shoulder.
"Hey comrade! What are you doing outside at such a late time?" Taunted a guy with ginger colored hair.
"Back off, dont call me that. And dont be so stupid, you know what im outside for" Said the hooded man coldly, not bother turning to look at him.
"Hmm? Let me guess..~"
"It's neither you going to the internet cafe you usually go to or the 24 hour convenient store" Guessed the guy.
"What? Who told you about this?" Asked the hooded man furiously, turning to look the other man.
"Ahaha! Dont act all surprised Scara, everyone literally knows you leave the cafe every night. Signora saw you walking out of the door" Explained the ginger man, giggling.
Scara just glared at Childe harshly, not answering.
"So? What brings you here then?" Asked Scara again, hands crossed against his chest.
"Hm? Whats wrong with me being outside? I mean, you are even outside yourself" Childe answered and scoffed.
Scara just answered with a "ok" and started to leave him.
"H-hey!! Wait for me!!" Childe shouted from afar as he ran towards Scara.
...
They stopped by an internet cafe, it was usually crowded. But since it was midnight, of course it isnt.
"Its up to you whether you want to rent or not. Also, Im not paying your bill." Scara exclaimed, opening the door.
"Huh??! What do you mean?? I thought you are paying me?? How do even have money??!" Childe asked, surprised.
"I stole it from the cashier" Scara confessed, not feeling any guilty of doing it.
"Hey! You stole it?! I'll report you to master Tsaritsa!!" Childe warned.
"Pfft why should I care? Go on and report it to her, I really dont care. And also, you sound stupid calling her master Tsaritsa." Scara mentioned as he payed for the billing, 1 hour.
As Scara was heading towards the computer he always used, Childe kept on complaining.
...
"Hufff, what do you even need to rent a computer anyways?" Childe sighed and stretched in his seat.
Scara did not answered anything. He countinued on to type on the keyboard for something. On his screen, showed a search bar. He was searching his own name, his intend was to know his reputation on the internet.
The loading took awhile, but it had finished anyways. He clicked his own hashtag, #scaracat.
The very first post on the top, which is the most popular and recently post, was a video. He hovered the cursor to the play button and clicked.
The video started, it was a video of a girl crouching to a black purple-ish cat, she is stroking the cat slowly. The place was familiar, it was the Fatui Cat Cafe.
After a moment of watching he finally realised its him, in his cat form.
He was surprised. Since when did he started to be gentle to someone? Why is he so calm and enjoying the girls touch in the video?
At the end of the video, he woke up suddenly and bit the girl's hand that was stroking him and the video was cutted off.
"Oohh, thats the video from yesterday's feeding with customers event" Childe commented as he saw the screen.
He remembered again the warmth and affection he received in his sleep yesterday afternoon. He thought it was just him feeling things. Well, it sure isnt him.
He scrolled down to the comments and checked, it was all positive comments.
The comments were just dry, like "aww cute!! 🥰🥰🥰😍" or "aww🥺🥺". He expected to meet a comment or two like, "man wish that was me" or "hey women move‼️‼️ my turn❗" or basically just simp comments. But who would simp for a cat??
He still expects like a comment like so, he countinued to scroll down the comments.
He the came across a comment, saying "the girl in the video is @/y/nn". He clicked the tagged user and the page loaded.
Childe on the other hand who was watching the same thing as Scara, is very interested in this girl.
@/y/nn is actually just a normal typical girl who does dance videos or vlogged her day with her friends, nothing special.
Her latest video has many views than her usually views on other videos, maybe because she recently got famous due to being one of the persons to calm him.
The video that got most views was a video of her dancing the newest trend, Casey dance. She isnt like most girls that really showed off their curves with the dance, she still kept her image well and kept her curves covered with baggy and oversized clothing despite the slight explicit dance.
(For those of you who dont know the dance, here's the video)
"Mannn, y/n is pretty~" Teased Childe beside Scara.
Scara only kept on looking on the screen with a slight blush on his cheeks. His cat ears which are hidden and blocked by his cap and hood were twitching to rise up, a sign of him being flustered. His tail was also itching to wag a little.
Childe only looked at him with a smug smile plastered on his face.
...
Eventually their rent time for the computer has ended so they left.
Childe insisted on buying some snack or stuff at the 24 hour convenient store with some money he found on the computer desk he was sitting on, Scara agreed.

Hello, luv what you do ^^
I wanted to ask you something, sorry for disturb and some of my vent, but, how can you make your comic more known? I'm not talking about your comic, yours is fine and it's known, I love it!... it's because of mine, I want to post someday a LMK comic I have, but I dunno how to make people get interested into it
I love to draw, it's my passion, but sometimes I get really depressed because most of the time I get ignored in social media with my fanarts, making me ask if I'm doing ok or not, how can you make yourself known in social media? Or dow did you?
My dream is that someone wants to pay me to make them a drawing, because that means they appreciate what I do, and it will make me happy, also because of how I need it in these hard moments of my life, thanks if you could answer me, I'll be very gratefull if you do <3
first, thank you sm! im happy you like my comic, and i totally get your dilemma. i started making my comic a year ago and it took me at least 6 months after i started posting for it to start gaining traction. before that it was no more than 10-20 or so notes per page.
but i think what it really came down to was how driven I was to make a story that was special to me, even if no one else read it at first. the right audience will come to you as your work develops and improves. the best thing you can do (and im still working on this too) for yourself is to try and prioritize the passion of storytelling/making art over immediate likes/reactions.
in technical terms of growing, i suggest also to use hashtags and try and keep a consistent posting schedule (I post once every 3/4 days). and if you want to advertise commissions to get paid, maybe make a google doc or caard sheet with prices you'd offer! some of it comes down to luck, some to skill, but everyone starts from somewhere and its very rare where ppl will get instant gratification from their work when they just start out.
best of luck to you and your LMK comic! we need more of them in this fandom, theyre so cool to read!

R Malleus Draconia PE Uniform Personal Story
"This is a first"
Tumblr media
[Sports Field]
Heartslabyul Student: Look. It's the Malleus Draconia… He's really taking class in his PE uniform.
Octavinelle Student: Since we're not in the same class as him, we don't really see much of him, so it freaks me out whenever he's in a joint class with us.
Malleus: …
Heartslabyul Student: Looks like he's gonna be stretching on his own. Wanna reach out to him?
Octavinelle Student: No way! It might just be stretching, but what if he puts a curse on us just for pushing down on his back?
Malleus: …
Cater: Malleus-kun, you're all alone. Want me to ask my partner if you can join us to make a trio?
Malleus: I do not mind being alone.
Cater: There you go saying something all dreary again! Don't you think you should be making some fun, exciting school memories here every once in a while?
Cater: These are precious memories, yeah? They'll probably last forever, y'know? …Ooh, yeah! Memories are better if there's a physical reminder ♪
Malleus: Diamond. If there is something you wish to say to me, why don't you speak plainly?
Cater: Aha. Guess I was obvious I had my own plan up my sleeve, huh?
Cater: Wellll, I thought maybe I could upload you to Magicam~
Malleus: Magicam?
Cater: Basically, I wanna take a picture of you! Ah, and if you want, I'll join you for it ♪
Malleus: I was curious what your aim was… Just a photo? You called out to me for such a thing as that?
Cater: I'd been waiting for that chance that we'd be in the same class, y'know ♪
Cater: I bet you in your PE Uniform'll totally go viral, don't you think? 'Specially because I bet photos of you are rare in the first place!
Malleus: I must admit, this is a first. I never had someone like you wish to take a picture of me before.
Cater: I mean, I guess it might be pretty difficult for people to ask you for a pic normally. Kinda like, you got too much of an intimidating aura, Malleus-kun.
Cater: Like, you're a bit out of our league, or like, we can't really read what you're thinking… And maybe just a little scary~?
Malleus: …
Cater: Sides, us commoners can't even hope to think about what your personal life is like.
Cater: Like, do you even show up in pictures? I'm just kidding. Obviously, you'd totally show up, right~? Ahaha!
Malleus: …
Cater: Haha… Uh, oh. Malleus-kun, did all that make you made?
Cater: Sorry, sorry, I was just kidding around.
Malleus: Of course not. I would not be angered by such banter.
Cater: Ah, whew, glad you're the type of guy who can take a joke.
Cater: I mean, Malleus-kun, you're an enigmatic and mysterious guy, after all. You scared me just a bit there.
Vargas: That's it for stretching, everyone line up!
Cater: Ah, he's calling us. 'Kay, we can talk about this some other time…
Malleus: Alright, Diamond. I do not mind. You may take a photo of me.
Cater: Oh! Awesome~ Glad you're up for it!
Cater: Cay-kun's so happy~! Thanks, Malleus-kun ♡
Malleus: So... What sort of photo were you hoping to capture? Unfortunately, I have no experience with Magicam.
Cater: Hmm, let me think. We're in our PE Uniforms, so we should make it look like, "we're about to exercise," or something like that? And our hashtags can be…
Cater: #NRC #MalleusDraconia #SportsAttire #PhysicalEducation #SSR
Cater: …How about that?
Malleus: Then, why not take one while I run?
Cater: Ooh, nice, nice~! Let's try to take one shot like that ♪
Cater: Ah, but you only need to pretend to run, 'kay? If you really run, you'll come out blurry on the picture.
Malleus: Pretend? Then would that not be a fabrication?
Cater: It's fine, it's fine, that's basically all Magicam is. Rather than a blurry picture that I can't enhance, it's more important to make it look good from the start!
Malleus: Is that so?
Cater: That's so! Okay, then let's snag a pic ♪ Can you make it look like you're running?
Malleus: Like this?
Cater: Can you lower your arm just a bit? And tilt your head a little…
Cater: OK, OK, perfect! This'll be a great picture.
Cater: Okay, I'm gonna take it. Say ch…
Cater: …eese!
Cater: And hey, why'd you move? If you move then, it'll be blurry, and I won't get a good picture.
Malleus: Ah, apologies. It seems I unintentionally tensed up there.
Cater: Eh~ Did you seriously get nervous there for a bit? Wow, you got an adorable side to you too, huh ♪
Cater: OK, no worries! Just relax~ We'll try again ♪
Cater: Say ch…
Cater: …eese!
[zoom!!]
Cater: And this time he ran off! Hey, hey, Malleus-kun!? Where are you going!? Come back, already.
Malleus: What is the matter, Diamond?
Cater: H-Hey, come on. If you move that much, I won't be able to take a picture~
Malleus: I see, what a bind. …Ah, perhaps…
Malleus: You are unable to take a picture of me because I am a scary, enigmatic, and mysterious guy who you cannot read?
Cater: …Eh? Hey, isn't that what I just said earlier?
Malleus: I couldn't say.
Cater: It totally is! Ehh~ You're totally holding a grudge!
Cater: Guess that really did bother you earlier. C'mon, I'm sorry, OK?
Malleus: It does not faze me. You may take as many pictures as you wish… If you can capture me, that is.
Cater: C'mon, you're really gonna tease me like that~?
Cater: Oookay. I'm definitely gonna get that miracle of a picture of you and totally go viral, so you better be ready for it!

BumbleBee who in the Malto family is the most mischievous? Also how sad are you that Hashtag did not become an ice cream truck? :)
Hi! OK, this one's kinda hard to answer, because they're good kids but they all get into stuff and trouble always finds them.
I guess Thrash finds it hardest to follow rules if he doesn't see why they're important. You have to explain why they matter if you want him to obey them.
Jawbreaker doesn't listen when he's excited. Megatron seems to be the best at keeping him calm and not letting him get too excited to start with. Wish he'd give me tips on that.
Twitch is competitive and gets mad when she's frustrated. I find that hard to handle sometimes, but she usually calms down pretty fast and she doesn't usually break stuff.
Hashtag mostly gets into trouble online. She's had some flame wars with Soundwave and his cassettes that got out of hand fast.
Nightshade would give us the least trouble if it wasn't for the accidents waiting to happen that they regularly cook up in the lab. In that sense, they're a lot like Wheeljack.
Ugh, everyone keeps talking about the ice cream truck thing! I didn't really want her to be an ice cream truck! I don't think I even told her that. I said I wanted all the GHOST vans to be... oh. I see why she thought I meant that, now. OK, look, I would never tell one of my kids who or what to be. I just like ice cream and wanted a fleet of ice cream trucks.
I think I'll go see if Alex has any ice cream I can sample.
One scoop. No more, no less.
Yes, Dadbot.
I could make that no scoops!

omg I loved the request for older! Sibling! Reader, it’s very rare in the fandom unfortunately.
could you possibly add to that trope with this prompt: One day the bowers gang are hanging at (depend’s on who the sibling is) and Reader just walks into the kitchen in a top and they just have scars. Just scars on their back or front of arms, just a scar that certainly wasn’t by being reckless or self inflicted.
wether it be they used to be bullied heavily, they got into fights a lot, (if Henry then maybe their dad’s abuse), maybe even a rare occasion where Reader might’ve been in a deadly situation and somehow survived.
I just need older sibling reader to be loved more than younger, and always female, reader.
ok im gonna do how each guy would react if it was their sibling! idk if you want it like a fanfiction or something! (i might make a hashtag for older sibling bowers gang cause i honestly love writing this...) if you guys love older sibling reader PLEASE request prompts i love writing prompts
HENRY BOWERS - the scars are likely from butch - henry knows that butch obviously beats on you too but you never let him know the extent cause c'mon, thats your little brother, you don't want him to see that. - when he sees deep scars like that he freaks out and starts yelling - he really does care about you more than everything, he's yelling saying shit like "i'll kill him" "what the hell did he do" - although he knows he can't really go against butch - he makes you sit still while he basically covers you in scar cream, glaring if you move while breathing - he cancels any plans he had and you guys spend the day together, you don't really talk about it but henry keeps his eye on you all day VICTOR CRISS - probably some sort of bullying scars
- he's shocked when he see's them, cause he had never heard of any bullying issues from you or your guy's parents
- a little upset you didnt tell him even though he was probably young when it occurred
- he tries to get you to talk to him about it
- when he finds out its a bullying situation he starts to feel guilty..maybe he should stop bullying the losers...no no. that's different. they're freaks, you're his older sibling, you're cool.
- later in the day he barges into your room with your favorite snacks, drinks and candy, actually paid for by him..for once, since he usually bugs you for money
- you guys watch a movie together and he tries to not stare or bring up the scars
BELCH HUGGINS
- scars are either from bullying or some sort of fight
- freaks the hell out.
- even though you aren't bleeding he acts like you are
- goes to get some scar cream and says you HAVE to use it
- silently thinks the scars are badass but he wont tell you that
- you guys go on a silent drive, minus the radio playing, you just listen to music and don't talk
- he treats you like glass that whole day
- tries to cook for you since your guy's mom is working, emphasis on tries. its horrible but you try to eat it anyways. ...you guys end up ordering pizza.
PATRICK HOCKSTETTER
- the scars could literally be from anything
- he doesn't exactly care.. but he wants to know how you got them
- probably the first time he really has a conversation with you, in a long time at least.
- he had stopped making drawings for you when he turned 10 but this day he comes into your room with a drawing, its just with brown and black and its mostly scribbles but you can make out two people who look like you and him
- he doesn't love or care for you but you're a part of his routine so he doesn't want you gone, he doesn't want his routine disrupted so he tries to keep you around.

Angel Exterminatus 3
well we had like 4 solid pages of description of slaaneshi shenanigans should maybe not have read that while eating my delicious mushrooms
THEY HAVE A SMOKE MACHINE WITH PINK AND PURPLE SMOKE for Fulgrim's entrance hashtag iconic
AAAAAAAAGH! MCNEILL MUSCLE MOMENT!!!!
okay i have to share this description
Tumblr media Tumblr media
for the crime of insulting Magnus I have been cursed with McNeill Muscle Moments when I least expect them squints wait, is he NAKED
OH NOOO welp Imperial Fist dude I really hope I don't learn about what happens to you in detail I am a delicate flower note from future bluejay: lol
Tumblr media
i'm surprised it didn't mention the violation of good taste as well but then i suppose the iron warriors have no conception of good taste
Tumblr media
I love this entire exchange
like as a former theatre kid I gotta admire Fulgrim (I've been the Fulgrim in this type of exchange) but Perturabo's straight man "no"s are some good comedy (I have also been Perturabo in this type of exchange, except at least by the time I was in my 20s I was usually doing it on purpose)
Tumblr media
ok then
note from future bluejay: THEME RELATED MOMENT SPOTTED AWOOGA
Tumblr media
okay i have a lot of thoughts about this, this is very personal for me i need to get my thoughts together ...i'll do it when i write the tumblr post project for future bluejay note from future bluejay: thanks a lot, past bluejay. Okay, fine, I'll give it a fair shake.
I think I actually got more into this is later parts, so I won't unpack everything, but, my philosophy on arts is that...they're very much shaped by our imperfections and the material we work with, and they combine to create something more filled with truth than what we can imagine. You have to accept that what you create will never match your perfect vision in your head. But sometimes, it's better. (with writing, it's always better, lol, and more eloquent people than me have written on the subject). But if you never create it, all it will ever be is potentiality. If you never actually commit and start creating, you're not actually an artist, you're someone who just likes playing around with ideas. You gotta shoot the engineer and put the design into production. I find this mindset especially...kind of troublesome? because that used to be me. It wasn't until I started doing embroidery that I was able to get out of it.
anyways. Not entirely sure I was able to say what I wanted to there. Moving along!
Tumblr media
this entire conversation is just gold oh, cerulean hair better than cerulean orbs- im sorry i will run a joke to the ground
Tumblr media
There's the McNeill we know.
Hi Lucius, been a hot minute.
perturabo has done one (1) good thing for his kids threw lucius off of kroeger fulgrim and perturabo: literally holding their kids back from getting into a fistfight Fulgrim puts his hand on Perturabo's arm Forrix internally: HDU touch our primarch!!!

in zombie au, what if the hypothetical situation where the gang does indeed run into Zero food supply, would zombie mob really eat either or both tome and ritsu :o (i literally laid awake last night imagining this scenario jwndjwndkwn)
oh and one more thing! i would very much like to know what goes on mob's thoughts when said hypothetical situation comes around :3
hogod . oh god i did this didnt i. i did this im so evil im so
ok. this is the evil timeline.we don't talk abt this timeline very much, it's evil. so this is prolly the only ask i'll answer abt it. warning for cannibalism, mcd, and suicide
in the not-canon hypothetical where they Do run completely out of food, mob would indeed get desperate enough to snap and lunge at one of them, and he'd go for tome first. she's less familiar, she's Not his sibling, and she's only been around for a few months
how ritsu responds to this sorta depends on the situation, but in that particular scenario from the previous ask and its tags ritsu probably Doesn't have it in him to shoot mob and he lets tome get killed. he feels like a Monster for it, but he's simply not going to kill his own brother for a girl he just met a couple months ago. he's going to choose mob every time
given that ritsu doesn't have any food for himself here, he's sorta trapped in a nightmare. if they leave after mob gets his fill, he'll feel like tome kinda died in vain, or at least smth close to it. through the fucking Raw Fear he's probably feeling after watching his brother eat another person, he's doing his best to grasp onto logic and say well we should stay here. bc that means shige will get rly well-fed. there's a perfectly good... food source right here. we shouldn't waste it
but ritsu has no food, and he literally can't resort to eating her bc that's tainted meat now. he'd just turn afterward. so they have to leave her. and that makes him so fucking upset in the grand scheme of things but rly, in the moment, he's glad to make that decision bc it means he can stop being in the same room as her corpse
now if it somehow happened Again and mob got that desperate a second time, with nobody but ritsu around? uhm.,,,,he would? i think. he would. as much as i'd love to say he wouldn't, he's a zombie. instincts takes over eventually. and then he'd wander aimlessly until exhaustion, a patrol, or starvation claims him. hashtag bad ending hashtag throwing tomatoes at the stage
to answer ur second question: after mob gets cured, in the middle of his recovery, he starts to remember bits n pieces of the journey, and while it's very fuzzy and it jumps around a lot, he Thinks there was somebody else w them at some point
so he asks ritsu. hey was there ?? anybody else with us? and like.whatthe hell do u say to that. ritsu knows that if mob knows, he'd lose his mind. he wouldn't be able to handle that. so he Has to lie, and he kinda panics and fucks it up a bit bc he says, "nah bro just us ^-^" and completely omits tome from the picture. fucked up but he panicked, okay
mob goes hm. ok. but then he remembers more. he remembers her face, vaguely, and her name, and at first he kinda chalks it up to brain weirdness in his recovery stages, but as time goes on and he gains more and more memories of this girl that ritsu claims was never there, he comes to the conclusion that ritsu Lying might be more likely
and if ritsu lied to his face about this, about a Whole Person being with them, what else is he hiding?
if mob ever did find out what exactly he did to her, or even to that man he mauls to protect ritsu in the canon timeline of this au, i think he'd lose it. he wouldn't be able to live w himself. i genuinely don't think he'd be able to go on after that

Hi. So I’ve been enjoying your blog for a few days now and I just want to say ‘thank you’ for giving King Magnifico fans the safe space they deserve. Thank you for giving King Magnifico the safe space he deserves.
I tried to find other blogs that defend him the way you do but I couldn’t. I agree with you 100% on Magnifico and honestly think he was the only good part of the movie.
You’ve inspired me to create an OC of my own to ship with him. I’m remaining anonymous and don’t want to tell you about them because I don’t want to offend you, due to your faith. But I will dedicate the OC side blog to you once it’s open.
Without you, I would’ve felt like a silly 37 yr old caring so much about a Disney character. Especially while I’m going through a hard time. Now I will preserve my endangered mental health by spending time on developing my character and my Magnifico fan blog.
Please keep it up. You’ve given me a Magnifico safe space and have inspired others to celebrate their love of this character.
Oh my goodness!!! *emotional noises*
Tumblr media
I'm so immensly moved I'm struggling to find the right words. Thank you doesn't even feel enough! I feel beyond happy and honored that I've managed to help, inspire, motivate and comfort people. That's what I want to do and if I manage to, it fills my heart with so much gratitude and joy!
But really, without you guys, I wouldn't be standing where I'm standing with my blog at this point.
I loved Magnifico from the moment I first saw him on screen and as soon as I understood enough of his story, it was more than clear to me, that I had to not only create a safe space for fans who - just like me - realized that he isn't a villain but also a place where I can fight against the very toxic stance against traumatized people and mental disorders.
Tumblr media
And no! Never feel bad or silly for loving something because of your age! Age doesn't matter. I'm in my late 20s and one of my friends is already 30 so 🤷🏻‍♀️ Who's to tell us we cannot love certain things anymore just because we aren't kids/teenagers anymore? People who spread such information aren't better than all those other bullies and they're obviously wrong. You can be a 100 years old and still love plushies and dolls, or Legos, or disney - it's not just for kids!
Also, while I'm more than pleased to see that more and more people start siding with Magnifico and becoming vocal that he's not a villain but a traumatized protagonist, I'm also greatly concerned by people still shaming, ridiculing, belittling and villainizing trauma.
The fact that Disney itself has pushed those toxic stigmas is beyond me! Just like one of my greatest fellow defenders stated : When did bullying a traumatized person into uncontrollable rage become acceptable? When did it become acceptable to villainize traumatized people? Since when does the message "true love breaks every curse" matter no more?
When did people lose so much compassion and became ok with pushing hate and unforgiveness?
Standing up for trauma and defending those people is not justifying wrong actions! It's calling awareness! Compassion and love! It's explaining and drawing a big difference!
There are so many toxic statements I hear people make toward traumatized people and people with mental disorders. And I think it's one of the cruelest, most disgusting and heartless things!
Magnifico has become a symbol for so many and a beacon to rise awareness to trauma and the toxic stance of disney and some people out there.
Btw, Japan has even created a hashtag that celebrates Magnifico. The japanese have been stressing from the start that Magnifico isn't a villain. The japanese amazing! ✨️
Tumblr media
So, I thank you for being a part of this incredible supportive, growing defender squad! I'll keep doing my best to fight for what's right and keep this blog growing ✨️
I wish you all the best from the bottom of my heart! ❤️ And again, thank you so very much!

CHAPTER 6; SPLIT UP
Halloween time had come around pretty fast. All kinds of friend groups both guys and girls in your class were already discussing what they should do together for the holiday. Today's a Saturday night, and you were having a sleepover with the girls Asuka and Yumi in order to plan what to do this Halloween. You all were gathered in your living room, each having their own blanket as y'all huddled together on one big air mattress.
"We should go to one of those haunted houses! You know, the ones where they can grab you and things! It makes it more realistic and scary." Yumi suggested, rather randomly.
"Girl, what?!" You looked at her like she grew three more heads.
"It'll be fun! And think...you could ask Kazutora to come too! It can be like a da-
"I am not asking Kazutora on a date, Yumi." You deadpanned.
For the past few weeks of October, ever since Asuka witnessed the interaction between you and Kazutora after he fought Osanai, they've been trying to set you two up since, allegedly, 'you guys need to just date already'.
"You should! Something needs to happen with you guys! I'm beyond tired of this slow burn, idiotic nonsense." Yumi grumbled.
"Not slow burn!" You laughed out loud.
"Yeah! All of Japan knows you guys like each other at this point! I mean, what is the issue?!" She ranted, throwing her hands in the air, only making you laugh more.
"The only issue here is that y'all want us to be more than friends! We really are just-
"I swear, if you say you guys are just close friends one more time, I'm gonna shave your eyebrows off." She glared.
"Yumiiiii!" Your jaw dropped.
"Don't Yumi me! Asuka, back me up here!" She obnoxiously patted Asuka's shoulder, disturbing her 'sleep'.
Asuka opened her eyes, lazily turning her head towards you.
"It's true, the slow burn needs to stop. Hashtag stop the slow burn." She mumbled tiredly, nodding her head slowly.
"Y'all are ridiculous, you hear me?" You chuckled, "Besides, if I ask Kazutora that'll make it one guy with three other girls. It's not an even ratio." You shrugged nonchalantly.
"You gotta be freaking kidding me. Obviously we'll be inviting other guys too." Yumi facepalmed.
"Oh, so you're finally gonna talk to Harada-kun and ask him to go to this haunted house with you? As a date, since that's the type of time y'all wanna be on." You question sassily, giving Yumi all types of neck.
"I-...you know what? Yes I will. But not before you ask Kazutora out first!" She smirked, a challenging tone in her voice.
"Ok, fine! I'll call him right now; facetime him even." You shot back.
Asuka shook her head, knowing the two of you were gonna fold eventually like y'all always do.
"Do it then! I dare you!"
You grabbed your phone aggressively from the floor next to the air mattress, pursing your lips as the realization finally hit you that you were about to ask Kazutora out. Your heart started racing, thumb hovering over his name.
"Is there perhaps...some hesitation I'm seeing?" Yumi teased, snickering evilly.
"Ain't no hesitation." You rolled your eyes, getting a tiny burst of ego-driven confidence from her words, facetiming him. As your phone rang you looked up at the two of them shook. They both had the same expression, shocked that you were actually doing it. Asuka was even fully sitting up and awake at this point. After a few more seconds, Kazutora finally answered. He had a dim lamp turned on in his room, laying in bed on his back with the camera facing him. He looked so so good, and his shirt was off!
Keep it together...
"Hey Kitty." He greeted. His voice sounded much lower than usual, and a bit raspy since it was really late in the night. It was almost one in the morning so it made sense. Yumi and Asuka slapped a hand over their mouths, attempting to muffle their whispered screams as both of them swatted and slapped at your legs excitedly. "Stop stop!" You mouthed instantly, feeling your heart about to pound out of your chest.
"Hey...did I wake you up?" You asked softly, trying not to sound as nervous as you felt.
"Nah, not really. What's up?" He brushed a hand through his hair lazily, a pretty luxurious looking sight in your opinion.
"Umm.." You trailed off, forcing your body to regain the courage you previously had while bickering with Yumi. The girls both gave you thumbs up for support and reassurance, helping you a little bit. There's no need to be nervous. You're just asking to hang out with a friend, you don't need to say it's a date. Yeah, just treat it like hanging out!
"Me and the girls are all planning to do a group trip to this haunted house or whatever on Halloween. Would you wanna go too?" You asked shyly, avoiding looking down at him out of embarrassment. Whew, you did it! That's all that matters.
"You of all people wanna go to a haunted house?" He chuckled lightly, trying to mess with you.
"Aye, it wasn't my idea! But for real though, you wanna come? Yumi was saying a bigger group will make it more fun; and maybe less scary-I don't know." You shrugged.
"On Halloween? Yeah, I'll go. You're not gonna cry all over me are you?" He smirked.
"Watch it be you screaming and cryin', lookin' like a fool. You better not jump at a single thing, Mr. Gang Division Captain!"
"It's third division captain not gang division captain." He grinned, shaking his head at you.
"Same thing." You chuckled.
Yumi and Asuka were so proud of you, both of them watching you like overjoyed moms. They both whipped out their own phones, texting each other about how this'll be the perfect set up for you two to finally steer things in a more romantic direction.
Halloween Saturday 8PM
Asuka, Yumi, and you were able to form a big group for the day. Miyazaki, Hanako, and Hayashi all joined and brought along a date (unfortunately, Yumi's date got sick and couldn't make it). Kazutora also brought along a friend, some guy named Hanma, so the grand total of participants is ten. All of you met up together near the entrance of the theme park, Fuji Q Highland. It seemed everyone had the same idea of coming here this year. So many high school and even college aged folks were out here, all bringing along their significant others or coming as a group as you all were.
You had spent almost all evening into night yesterday doing your hair for today. Wanting to do a cute perm rod set, you carefully get to work on your hair as soon as you got home so that your hair would be dry by tomorrow afternoon.
Perm rod sets is one of your favorite hairstyles, as it always gives you the cutest, fluffiest look. Your hair is pretty long, stopping at nearly mid back when blow dried or straightened out. Yumi and Asuka also got their hair done after school, going straight to the hair salon for wig installs. You had helped them pick out wig styles and colors that would suit them best.
For Asuka, you choose a cute 1B/30 ombre balayage body wave wig, and for Yumi you picked out a sixteen inch middle part black wavy hair wig with neon green roots. It gave very much Billie Eilish, a look that Yumi is really into right now.
Yumi loves short hair styles, and more far out colors so it was perfect for her. They decided to go for wigs because they liked the idea of being able to change up their hair whenever they want, a mindset they acquired from you.
Your outfit for today was an all black, long sleeved jumpsuit with white air forces and gold jewelry for accessories. A Nike wind breaker with all kinds of countries flags on it was your jacket, though you were really using it as a way to kind of step up your look. You had it draped off of your shoulders cutely and about two thirds of the way zipped. You also carried a sparkly mini black backpack, opting for that instead of a purse for an amusement park setting. Kazutora's outfit funnily matched the style you chose too. Black cargo pants with a white top and an olive green bomber jacket with accents of red.
The whole day was going so well so far. Even though Yumi's date wasn't able to come, she was hitting it off pretty well with Kazutora's friend Hanma that he brought along. He was tall and seemed to love thrill seeking, taking Yumi along to do all kinds of crazy stuff together.
Due to that, it landed on Asuka to play the role of wingwoman for you, even though they both had bickered back and forth yesterday about who would be chosen to do it. She won anyways. The whole point of this was solely to get you and Kazutora closer, the bonus was that they'd be able to have fun and bring someone too. So Asuka stayed by you with her date.
Now it was around time for the haunted house walkthrough. Everyone met up near the entrance of the theme park where the line was starting to grow. As you all gathered and got in line, you heard people talking excitedly and mostly nervously about what was going to happen inside.
"I hear they're splitting large groups up!"
You overheard someone say to their own group of friends. It was all guys, six of them. Your once cheerful and excited expression fell instantly.
"Aye Yumi. Didn't you say the bigger the group the better for the haunted house?" You inquired, your expression not matching your voice at all. "Yeah! That's what I heard." She nodded.
"Well how come I just heard someone talkin' bout they're splitting people up?" You tilted your head to the side.
"What? You scared about that or somethin'?"Hanma teased, smirking devilishly.
"It's not about being scared! It's about bein' black! Black folk don't split up! That's white people type shit!" You exclaimed. Everyone laughed.
"Don't you know in horror movies when groups split up they always die?" Miyazaki added, looking towards Hanma.
"It's fine if we split up, we're an even number." Kazutora assured you with a light chuckle, placing his arm over your shoulder. Yumi and Asuka both smirked at each other.
"Naaaaaah! That's the exact type of mindset that gets you killed in horror movies." You shook your head.
Your two friends held a telepathic conversation with each other, tuning out of what the rest of you were talking about.
Asuka: We need to utilize this whole group splitting thing.
Yumi: I lied, by the way. I knew they split groups into four already. Four'll be perfect.
Asuka: You dirty devil! Ok, who's gonna go with who?
Yumi: So there's ten of us. Miyazaki and Hayashi are obviously gonna go in together since they don't have dates. And then Hanako and her date can be with them. I can stay with Hanma and Kazutora. That'll make four. And then you and your date can have some alone time.
The two girls snickered in hush tones, coming to an agreement about their plan. You all made it towards the front, actors were out scaring people in the line to set the creepy mood. Eerie music played from speakers, and the sounds of distant screams filled the air. Your group was split in the way Asuka and Yumi planned, leaving you with Hanma, Kazutora, and Yumi.
The entrance into the haunted labyrinth was pitch black, freaking both you and Yumi out instantly.
"Guys, I can't see not a thing! I don't know about this." You murmured softly. Suddenly, Yumi bumped into you from the right, making you jump. "AAAAAAH!" You screamed, making her scream right along with you. The both of you grabbed onto the guys, you wrapping your arms around Kazutora's arm while Yumi gripped Hanma's jacket from the back. "Girl! What are you doing?! You can't be playin' around like that!" You scolded out into the air since you couldn't even see her.
"I'm sorry, I lost my balance for a second!" She quivered in a meek voice.
"It hasn't even been five minutes and you guys are already freakin' the fuck out." Hanma shook his head.
"Shut up!" You both said at the same time.
Suddenly, a hissing sound of steam came from behind you all. This time you made Kazutora jump too due to the way you pulled on him. The sound of someone laughing maniacally to themselves filled the air. You and Yumi both squealed. There was no light, no signs, no nothing. Just noises and you two girls making each other jump by constantly bumping into one another.
Finally you guys made a right turn, then stopped as it lead to a long corridor. The dimmest of lights showed the way. Blood splatters scattered the dirty floor, and the ambient eerie music was long gone, leaving it completely silent...like dead silent. "Wai-wait a minute y'all...." You said anxiously, not liking the looks of the hallway. Something wasn't feeling right. Yumi and Hanma continued on forward, lowkey leaving y'all behind. "Come on." Kazutora urged quietly, starting to cautiously walk forward. You let out an uncomfortable hum.
An abrupt and loud triple banging sound like metal against metal coming from behind scared you all at the same time. Then, the sound of heavy boots also running from behind was all it took to have y'all scrambling out of there like back in the day Looney Tunes characters.
"AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!" Yumi let out the longest and loudest scream you've ever heard, practically floating down the hallway since she could barely keep up with Hanma's long strides. You went from holding onto Kazutora's arm to just holding hands as he lead you through the corridor. Your heart was pumping fast, a wild mix of fear and slight excitement coursing through you.
"AH HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" The person from behind laughed, only fueling your legs to move faster. The hallway felt like an eternity to run through. Finally as you reached the end y'all all scrambled into a small room.
"I can't...y'all, I can't." You huffed, no longer able to maintain speaking in Japanese. This damn haunted hospital, labyrinth-whatever the hell don' knocked the Japanese outta you! You noticed that Yumi had herself snuggled up close into Hanma's side, his right arm wrapped around her by her shoulders keeping her tight next to him.
"Oop..." You whispered to yourself, keeping a mental note of what was possibly going on between them. You weren't really with them during the day so you hadn't seen anything with them until now. You lowkey shipped it so far, their height difference was so adorable. You all proceeded forward after catching your breath. It was another dark room, nearly pitch black with hospital furniture all over the place.
"Oh Jesus!" You hollered, squeezing Kazutora's hand subconsciously as the sound of a desk scraping against the floor startled you.
"My bad." Hanma snickered. He had allegedly 'bumped' into one of the desks causing it to move and make that creepy ass noise.
He definitely did that on purpose...
As your group exited the room, you entered a short hallway that lead to multiple flights of uneven steps, all spiraling so you couldn't see what was ahead. It was so dark though it didn't matter, you wouldn't be able to see regardless. Old looking posters of skull charts and spinal chords adorned the walls, torn and tinted a faint brownish yellow.
The boys helped you both make your way up the stairs, you almost fell about four times before reaching the end. Now there was another room, much larger than the last, with clear hospital curtains at the entrance.
"I don't like the looks of this one..." Yumi whined. Neither did you to be honest. It looked like a surgical room. It was still completely quiet, nothing but the mixed sound of whimpers and breathing coming from the four of you, mainly you and Yumi. A few whitish blue shaded lights helped light the way for you all, showcasing what was all over the room. You were exactly right, there was surgical equipment laid out on tables, some of them bloody. Bodies covered by light blue drapes laid on two tables.
Walking straight you came to an opening.
"Oh my gosh y'all, it's multiple ways we can go." You mutter in a defeated, fearful tone. It lead to a hall, truly like a hospital, leading to the right or left, nothing straight except for a front desk looking area. To the right had more curtains some fully closed and some open while the left was just pitch black. "Which way should we goooo?" Hanma asked in a fake spooky tone. He was having a little too much fun up in here.
"Clearly not the pitch black ass way." You shot back sassily, pulling on Kazutora's hand to take the lead in front of Yumi and Hanma. Yumi agreed with you, nodding her head frantically. "Yeah, the light is always safer." She murmured.
"Nah nah! Let's go the dark way!" Kazutora beamed, pulling you back. He sounded so excited, just like Hanma.
"Let's do what?!" You looked at him like he just grew two more sets of eyes.
"Heehee, that's the spirit! C'mon." Hanma grinned, leading Yumi into the literal darkness. You frowned, huddling up close to Kazutora, using your free hand to grip onto his bomber jacket while the other still held his hand. You walked down the dark hall, entering some room that would eventually lead to another right or left way split like the previous one.
Suddenly, out of everywhere you've been this spot was different. There were sounds, lots of subtle but clean cut sounds that freaked you the hell out. Clanging, squeaking, shuffling, all those quiet yet eerie noises surrounded the four of you. Then, a bit ahead of you to the left, was a figure. Someone in a wheel chair, just barely moving towards y'all.
"What the fuck is goin' on?" You asked aggressively. When you were scared you lowkey got aggressive, it was just a thing for you, your own personal coping mechanism. Everyone stopped moving, Hanma made spooky "Oooo" sounds. In a much slower pace, y'all continued on, keeping your eyes on whoever or whatever was in the wheelchair.
"You better not do anything stupid! This guy's tall and he'll beat your ass! His friend will too!" Yumi shouted anxiously, her voice cracking here and there as she spoke. "Right! They both got mad hands!" You said back with a self-assuring nod. The boys both chuckled pridefully at the two of you. Out of nowhere, the sensation of something warm, damp, and furry dragged across your ankle in the area where your jumpsuit ended, a little bit of skin making contact with whatever was touching you.
"It's a rat!" You screamed, jumping backwards, letting go of Kazutora in the process. This made everyone jump in response. The person in the wheelchair took it as the perfect opportunity and quickly hopped to their feet. They screamed loudly, tilting their head side to side as if analyzing you, only making you scream again.
You all scattered, trying to get away from the creepy person all blood stained in that nasty looking hospital gown. Yumi, Hanma, and Kazutora all ran down the hall and to the right, while you were forced by the way the 'patient' chased you to go to the room to the left. Frantically you swatted in front of you, making sure not to bump into anything while you continued running. You kept going until you felt like you weren't being chased anymore.
Looking side to side and ahead of you seeing absolutely nothing but black petrified you. Wherever you were was completely silent like before, not a single sound except your soft panting.
"Yu-Yumi...?" You called out barely above a whisper. There was nothing in response.
"Yumi?!" You whisper-yelled a bit more forcefully, starting to get more worried as there was still no response.
"K? ....Kazutora?!" You paused, waiting to maybe hear one of them answer. "Oh my fuckin' god..." You murmur, the realization finally sinking in that you were indeed by yourself currently in this labyrinth. Your hands raised to your chest, clinching onto your thin gold chain necklace you had on. Not feeling comfortable standing still you decided to walk forward. Maybe you'll find them somewhere on the way out?

What’s your opinion of Kristal trying to out someone in “Truth Hurts”?
Like what were she thinking? She is a 28 year old woman and she think that’s ok?
Even Yul was horrified by that. That tells something. (I don’t think he care all that much of trans people but at least he knows how horrible it is to out someone unlike the hostess there.)
She is even worse than her dad. At least in my opinion.
oh gosh. i hated that whole thing. i'll talk more about it under the cut.
gonna start this off by saying i absolutely hate that ep as a whole because of that moment specifically. i get what the writers were going for—learning secrets from different characters serves as some form of potential drama fuel + helps us learn more about said characters. but it was so fucking uncomfortable. (which is the point! i know! kitchen found in fork! but still, wasn't a fan personally. hashtag hit too close to home.)
but yeah, it just made me extremely ickyyyyy. kristal never outright said aiden's name, but the mere fact that she revealed somebody on his team was trans on a televised show was... certainly a choice! and then we kinda brush past it afterward which is like. weird. i always side eye kristal for that idk.

hi! could you explain what the love/hate gloves are? if you feel like it <3
hello!!!! of course I can <3
ok this one is a little bit more sad than the butterfly mural but still an insane part of time in the Swiftie History Books. I also had to do a little bit more research on it because i vaguely remember this part of time like idk why but it was a blur. I'll link my sources at the end!
a lot of the posts, photos, etc. from this time are like almost completely gone, except for the glove photo lmao
ANYWAYS
so to set the stage, it's 2015. taylor had been on tumblr for a while now and interacting a lot with fans both online and in person. following the 1989 secret sessions, we saw a lot more of taylor sending gifts to fans (eventually we got Swiftmas from this), following/replying to fans on tumblr, etc. she was like such a big part of the community in ways outside of just being the celebrity we all loved. she genuinely felt like a friend (and this was before we really knew the concept of parasocial relationships lmao)
so, as taylor got to know us online she also would get to know online fans in person. this included seeing that fans were at events and award shows and actually making it a point to seek them out. that was sort of the start of the domino effect for what would eventually become the love/hate glove situation.
I believe it was at the Brit Awards where taylor met and took a photo with a certain fan. I do not want to name them here bc I don't know them, I never interacted with them, I never saw anything, etc. But this fan she had, from my understanding, went out of her way to take a photo with was known for being just nasty online (on tumblr, in particular, i believe). The fan would bully other fans in some pretty disgusting ways and was just genuinely not a good person
It also didn't help that taylor had sent this fan a Valentine's Day gift just a few weeks earlier. This person had the full love and support of taylor despite being a gross human online.
naturally, swifties got VERY upset with this. and rightfully so. many fans started sharing their experienced with the fan in question and i think even twitter swifties got involved and started calling out taylor and i think even calling for her to quit tumblr (I'm not sure if this stems from them having experiences with this fan or if they were just annoyed taylor was on tumbr lmao). Also in my research I just learned that the hashtag "#SwiftiesWantTaylorSwiftDead" started trending but idk what the HELL that's about!!
Flash forward a few days I think and taylor is beginning to elude to taking a social media break. this did send some fans into a frenzy mhm bc of course dfjalsfjlkj some people's only business on this sight was trying to get noticed by taylor and weave their way into her group of favorites LMAO
and a lot of people began really coming to taylor's defense and that turned into them defending the bully fan. it got really divided!! I honestly think this was her first swiftie community controversy since joining tumblr
but it was, you know, a genuine concern for most fans that people could be like "taylor this person is very mean we don't think you should give them your attention they don't deserve it" and have taylor just ignore it or, as her tumblr likes eventually showed, want to move on. but we have we seen that behavior again recently
so, in the midst of all this shit online, taylor decides to take to instagram to post this photo with the caption: choose the right one <3
Tumblr media
all hell breaks loose. people were like ???? what the hell??? it genuinely felt like taylor was taking the side of the bully fan and ignoring the victims. it was SO weird and hurtful for people to see. it was like she just didn't get it or didn't want to think she could do something wrong.
this ended up with a lot of uproar and eventually the bully fan did come out to apologize and explain his actions in a giant tumblr post. and even the victims began worrying about what they had done and had made taylor feel. and the main fan who had called out the bully fan was getting some unsavory comments directed toward her. this probably should've been when people noticed how peculiar her relationship with fans was getting
however, eventually this all trickled down and everyone did end up moving on. now The Gloves get posted at the most random times and have become almost a ridiculous joke in the fandom lmao it was a whirlwind and really only was the beginning for taylor on tumblr!
