arcanists: we wield the most complex form of magic... arcanima. one must master arcane geometry to weave patterns that respect the flow of aether, which in turn will create powerful creature that can help you in combat. this is very dangerous and very powerful, it's not for the weak of mind

also arcanists: anyway we use that power to inspect ship crates lmao

I think @spooky-circuits 's OC Jackie is adorable so I felt compelled to draw a reunion between her and JD!

Mike talks about how cool it is having various people from different cultures in the same community, and how that's something he really liked about QSMP!

Bruce is actually really attractive, and I have enough reasoning to make a list

He's:

Tall (. Tall enough to hit his head on the vault doorframe)

Long-legged

Has a straight nose bridge

Has high cheekbones (more noticeable in 2nd pic below)

Has a strong jawline

Sharp eyes, but they aren't small (plus eyebags if you're into that)

Overall, he has strong, attractive facial features

Has broad, refined shoulders. You can tell he works out (or he did, when he was alive)

Even has a thick, muscly neck

He has MUSCLE. Is SCULPTED. NOICE. VERY NOICE. (nice arms. Nice shoulders. Nice neck. Nice legs. Nice butt-)

(There are actually panels where you can see some of his muscles. Other than those already shown here, he's got bricky thighs-

-and in the panels where we first get his name dropped, he's got those shoulder blades too-)

The one time we see him smile, and he actually has a scary one

Has small, kinda sharp pupils, and his eyes remind me of a cat. We only ever saw him tense or defensive, so his resting/listening face is really cute

Other than the physical appearance stuff, he also:

Takes shit without batting an eye (patience, knowing it's just how Kudo is, etc)

Kudo being all "Cut the crap Bruce and give it to me straight", after Bruce tests his blood and is rightfully Concerned because they just faced AFO

Put up with Kudo's experimenting and testing over Yoichi's transferable Factor

Did ya'll see the look on Kudo's face when he realized he had Yoichi's Factor/will? Kudo was going to start in nonsense and Bruce just dealt with that.

Also something I noticed when looking back at the images here; Bruce has bandages on his arms in the void. But not when he faced AFO in the sewers.

Were he and Kudo cutting their arms open in their experimenting over Yoichi's theory? Is this why Kudo has two gauntlets instead of his one? Why we never see his bare arms in the void? That he always keeps his arms down so there's no slip?

Is smart enough to run blood tests, plus has enough common sense to pick Shinomori as his successor

He picked a guy who avoids society, has an Ability to detect danger so he can always stay away from AFO, is also a coward so he's never going to go throw himself into danger, even without knowing instinctively he stands no chance, etc.

Meanwhile, Kudo chose Bruce, who he played Hot Potato Yoichi with; but he did also trust Bruce, and put the only pure combative Ability in OFA through Bruce.

These two made their choices based on what they valued and saw the Factor needed.

Is logical, analytical, and calm.

He tried advising Midoriya on their Abilities in One For All, especially his own.

Midoriya then tried ignoring him about using Fa Jin for the first time, but found he was right, thinking: "Dammit!! I had [Lady Nagant] right where I wanted her, but... ugh! The Third was right. My parallel Quirk processes are all screwed up!" (ch. 314).

Plus, when Midoriya fixed his processing mistakes, Bruce was analyzing the way he reached his new conclusion. Pure facts, no bias, very calm, just saying it as it was.

We never see him panic. When he's caught by surprise in the sewers by AFO, Kudo, and Yoichi's little bubble event, he immediately reacts. He doesn't falter, he just knows he has to do something right now.

Was more willing to listen than Kudo to Yoichi's beckon, and probably was just following Kudo's rejection of Midoriya

While we don't see Kudo's face, we see Bruce's eyes when Yoichi calls on his heroes. Bruce was more open and receptive, or at least more impacted.

Bruce was also the one to start talking, while Kudo just kept quiet.

He actually communicates a lot

When Yoichi called them to support Midoriya, Bruce started talking to paint a picture of why they thought the way they did, so Yoichi understood where they were coming from.

(Though he seems to beat about the bush sometimes, since Kudo spoke up to be direct on how they couldn't just put their trust in some starry-eyed teenager. Plus, when Kudo tells him to just tell him what's wrong [double Factors])

When Midoriya first used Fa Jin against Nagant, Bruce came out just to tell him he knew what he was trying, but that Midoriya wasn't ready; and Midoriya found he was right. Midoriya just didn't want to listen to him then.

He asks Kudo for clarification after finding Kudo had two Factors in him after the sewer incident ("Just to be sure, All For One didn't touch you, right?") Kudo knew him well enough to go "stop beating around the bush and tell me", so Bruce was probably gonna start with questions, theories, and trying to understand everything in general, before saying "yeah you have two Factors. Don't know why".

Is strong-willed and loyal.

He followed Kudo, even to death, carrying on the cause he started until it ended with him.

Plus, when talking about how AFO needs a strong will to override OFA's own, we first see Bruce, Kudo, and Yoichi.

AFO couldn't steal OFA because the will was too strong for him, and that was back during Banjo's time. Since Shinomori never actually tried opposing AFO and just hid, we can assume the first Three (Yoichi, Kudo, Bruce) already had an accumulation of strong willpower that made OFA un-stealable. Those three are a strong enough foundation, and the main wills, that the other users just become bonuses.

Kudo, also saying that Midoriya needs allies with the same will and drive as him... hey Kudo, you're talking about yourself and your old allies, aren't you? That's why you look at Yoichi and Bruce when you say this.

Not only is Bruce attractive, but he's got good character. THE END.

Can someone show me where everyone got the info that nightmare replaced killer three times? I tried searching for it but I can’t find it…

[kaeyas-nalgas]

[robin-with-a-pen]

Okay I’m having ideas I need someone to stop me-

Anyways, so we all know that Chilchuck probably doesn’t have the healthiest relationship with food? Right?

I don’t think he has an eating disorder but more so disordered eating- that hellish middle space, right? I mean “maintaining his body weight at an acceptable level” really sticks out to me

So picture this- my man retires, he doesn’t need to control his weight anymore, no worry about setting off or anything, but he realizes that the unhealthy habits he’s developed over he past ten years are harder to break than he thought

Okay now I'm really thinking about the Victorian SBURB session

I need to find reliable Victorian photos immediately, I need to make at least one Victorian child.

I have no idea how the game portion of SBURB would work in this world but I'd like to think that the machines that you make in SBURB would have a more steampunk-esque look to them.

Gotta admit I’ll be seated for the FNAF movie

I'm going to be making a more expansive timeline for these guys eventually, but a quick recap of what Roberts and Nite have been up to since coming to London:

Roberts arrives in London, ready to slowly infiltrate the revolutionaries and work his way into a cell of liberationists, lead by January.

Shortly after arriving, he's kidnapped and experimented on by a group of scientist working out of Benthic College, trying to cure people who have been dawnpilled.

He manages to escape with some documents he'd grabbed but wakes up confused with only his alias, Nite, as his identification. Nite takes on the role of a revolutionary, unaware that it's not his identity, slowly climbing his way through their ranks.

Roberts, meanwhile, does not remember why he's in London. He busies himself with picking up some of the ties between Zelo's Town and London that have atrophied over the years and soon falls in with Beverley, trying to rebuild/searching for the missing dawnlight bomb.

Nite, meanwhile, has slowly become notorious in revolutionary circles and gained the attention of, and entrance to the liberationist circle, led by January. He learns of their plans for Liberation of Night and is caught up in their vision. In fact, he seems to have some ideas of his own, and they just might work. He just needs to do some research. It's around this point that he meets and begins a relationship with Jones. Jones never seems to mention what it is that he does for a living, and Nite feels in turn that it's not the time to mention his involvement in the Liberation of Night.

Whilst Roberts and Beverley seem to be initially working well together, Roberts' constant disappearances and inconsistency leave a dent in their relationship. Moreover, rumours of a man of a similar description making waves with the revs triggers Beverley's suspicions. Nonetheless, Beverley does eventually come to Roberts with rumours he's heard of a Benthic laboratory conducting experiments with dawnlight and the potential dangerous consequences for the New Sequence. Roberts investigates, and eventually decides to send the Pawnbroker to eliminate the researchers (entirely unaware of his own personal connection to any of this). Beverley, who had hoped for the okay to test out a new explosive, was not happy with this decision. The Pawnbroker proceeds with the assassinations, setting fire to the laboratory and destroying their work for good measure.

Nite continues his research in how to develop a more effective set of bombs to kick start the LoN. In pursuit of this, he befriends Myfanwy, a researcher specialising in the Correspondence. Shortly into their acquaintance, she comes to him, distraught. A laboratory at the college appears to have been burnt, and several of her colleagues were dead. The official university line is that it was an accident involving the Correspondence, but she knows from a cursory glance that this doesn't add up. She asks Nite to accompany her to the lab at night as backup, so she can do some investigating for herself. Whilst sifting through the burnt rubble, he discovers some documents that enable him to make the connection between himself and the group's last subject. This is information that he chooses not to reveal to Myfanwy.

Nite does go to Jones, however. He reveals to Jones his memory problems, missing time, flashes of memories that feel as if they belong to someone else or maybe a past life, and that he may have been under the Dawn Machine's influence. He's not even certain that Nite is his real name. Jones is unfazed by all of this, and simply draws him in closer, comforting him. They will find a way to sort through this together.

Having been passed up for the job and a chance to test his inventions, Beverley attempts to blackmail Roberts with the knowledge of his degrading mental health, in an effort to be allowed to test his bombs. This fails, leading to Beverley’s temporary death via blunt force object. Before Roberts could ensure his permanent death via cement fluke-baited shoes, however, Nite regains consciousness and flees the scene, abandoning Beverley's corpse. Beverley later bombs Roberts' lodgings in retaliation, leading to them both being presumed MIA.

Work with January has not been going well. She seems to be keeping Nite at a distance, playing him off of two other revolutionaries in her inner circle. He doubles down on his work to try to progress their goals. Meanwhile, he's actively aware of the time he's missing, and that there may be someone running around with his face doing lord knows what. He needs to learn more about his alter ego. He goes to Jones with a plan--Jones should try to find him in his missing time and try to pick him up, just as he had the first time. Jones could get information out of him and what he's up to.

Roberts is not doing well. He's exhausted, his lodgings were blown up, Beverley is in the wind. His latest reports to the Commodore have gone unanswered. The missing time has been getting worse, and he's been getting flashes of strange memories and emotions. He needs a break. Some form of stress relief. Time to haunt some of the local nightlife.
