continuing to think about data a lot. juliana says they hoped the logs and memories of the people from omicron theta would give data Something To Work Off Of For Social Situations. i wonder to what extent he did reference them at first. like, in thine own self when he loses his memory for a minute he just blankly repeats everything that's said to him until he seems to remember how to actually form original sentences. i can imagine data after first being found and activated just directly quoting sentences from the journals in his brain until he works out how to actually use language himself.
#STARTS THINKING ABOUT THAT ONE BIT OF DIALOGUE ABOUT HOW THE PROCESS OF INCREASING IN SENTIENCE AFTER BEING ACTIVATED#WAS REALLY DISORIENTING FOR HIM#you could even bullshit out of this some random explanation for why he can't really use contractions idk#basilposting#star trek tng#data soong

Do yall think sometimes Siffrin does normal human things that make sense but are deeply unsettling when you remember they dont remember their childhood. Like do you think Siffrin once woke up startled and shouted "Oh SHIT MY HOMEWORK" and scared Mirabelle who went to wake him up? Or they complained about not wanting to eat certain things cause it made them sick and their parents were upset about it when they were a child? Or they see a stuffed animal and buy it for Bonnie cause they wished they still had their stuffed animals when they were Bonnie's age? Or he sings a lullaby to himself when trying to fall asleep and Isa asks for its name and Siffrin just kind of shrugs and says it was what his mom used to sing for him? Just so normal and deeply ingrained but forgotten? Like I think that would be fucked up, yall think its fucked up? Also it would be mainly childish things cause ya fella ran away when they were a kid </3
#isat#in stars and time#isat spoilers#isat siffrin#I am THINKING!!!!!#Just the homework one really got me#maybe one time someone woke them up and they were disoriented and said something abotu being late for school#and they kind of laugh and ask home about it#and still half asleep he mutters something about how hes gonna be in soooo much trouble he hasnt been to school for years hes so late#and they kind of laugh about it but Siffrin keeps going and it gets increasingly clear something Happened to make him not able to go#And then they forget. They forget and suddenly the party knows more than they should.#YALL THINK ABOUT THIS???? I THINK ABOUT THIS!!!!

while the concept of samuel existing in maia's room as some sort of afterlife has been wonderfully and sincerely portrayed in some recent fanworks, it's also very funny to me because I imagine the first few moments of samuel being in the room going something like
#on a less funny note#go check out its-short-for-jackalope's really cool art for this concept#as well as snarky-wallflower's and midnightnautilus' fics about it#their art and fics are incredible!#pulp musicals#samuel stratford#maia pulp musicals#m.a.i.a. pulp musicals#<- not entirely sure how to tag her#the searcher in the shadows#pulp musicals spoilers#the searcher in the shadows spoilers#tsits spoilers#pulp 4 spoilers#my art#also a side note about the “grappling with his own demise” part#i. definitely think he had accepted his own death in samuel and the sun (reprise)#but i would imagine the first few moments after it occurring would be. quite disorienting. hence him being understandably shaken#(at least at first)#have now made myself sad. oh dear

Strangers From Hell Incorrect Quotes [13/?]
insp.
#strangers from hell#seo moonjo#yoon jongwoo#gifset#*brace's#incorrect quotes#//#ok so technically the quote is from IWTV#but what inspired me was this one fic I read yesterday#where Jongwoo tells Moonjo he hates him while they're making out#and the Moonjo there enjoyed that so much. So much you'd think that's dirty talk to him#and. hm. yeah. to me that tracks.#the idea of being able to get under Jongwoo's skin deeper than anyone else#to provoke burning and disorienting reactions with your existence alone#in such a way you just CANNOT be ignored#that sounds. uh. pretty good. very satisfying. from a Moonjo point of view.#but. why did I match this dialogue with this scene you may ask-#well for one I really like the acknowledgement that comes with ''as you should''#no denial. no begging. no bargaining.#if that person hates you that's because you gave them a reason to and you know it#you know you deserve it#you deserve the consequences of your actions. your punishment.#this time. from this one person.#the one person you hold in higher regard than yourself. the only one whose feelings matter more than your own.#if you're in the receiving end of their rage and disgust you should cherish it#that might be all you are ever gonna get from them. all of them that is ever gonna be yours.#their hatred might be the most personal‚ most intimate feeling they will share with you.#... and that's why I picked this scene: the closeness. the intimacy.#Moonjo's surrender. the way he just lays there and wait. watch. the look of reverence in his eyes.#reverence tinted with fondness and pride. with bliss.

Wild of this episode to directly parallel Louis and Daniel being haunted by figures from their past that are actively preventing them from living their lives, and show that while Louis tries to banishes his ghost to move forward, Daniel is now trying to face his in order to do the same.
#iwtv spoilers#interview with the vampire#Daniel asking louis if he’s schizophrenic only for him to have another severe and disorienting vision of Armand a few seconds later#really shows how much they have in common while also denoting their opposing reactions to issues#i mean they both also deflect but again in different ways#louis de pointe du lac#daniel molloy#god i love when the show parallels them#and of course the lestat and armand parallels are delicious too

hi sel!! i missed seeing you around dash - i hope you’re enjoying your lil vacation!
n for your lil game.. if it appeals.. may i suggest touya + rain/storm ?
scar hello!! sorry i've been on and off these past months 🥹 i missed being on here too!! i have been enjoying my lil vacation though 🥺 it's been a while since i've just chilled at home! thank you for sending in a prompt 💗
contains: fallen angel touya, visions in dreams, kind of disorientating what's reality vs not, reader tries melatonin, there is a fire
touya + storm
there's a storm outside your window.
the rattling of string lights on your balcony jolts you awake, the wind howling an eery melody. this weather is common at this time of the year, but tonight, you feel uneasy. you think there's something on your front yard.
your footsteps are light as you make your way down your staircase, the flashlight on your left hand clutched tightly as you reach for the umbrella by the door.
it's zero visibility on your front yard, heavy rainfall being dragged sideways by the wind. you squint, flashing your light at the area in front of you.
a broken branch from your neighbor's tree dangles loosely towards your fence, but you can't make out anything else apart from that. you contemplate stepping outside to get a better look, but a burst of light streaks itself across the sky, lightning flashing before thunder rumbles loud enough that it reverberates in your heartbeat. a sudden chill breezes over you, your skin prickling from strands of hair standing.
your flashlight flickers, the light going out once before you tap it on your wrist twice. and when it turns back on, you think you can make out a figure hunched over the shrub at the far right of your garden.
you flash your light over the area to get a better look but it turns black―your vision or the light, you're not sure.
the next time you open your eyes, you're tucked in bed, squinting your eyes at the brightness of sunlight.
a dream? you wonder. the jacket you're certain you reached for is still right by your vanity, untouched. could be.
your front yard is trashed, just like you expected it to be, if your subconscious was trying to tell you anything from last night's dream. plants are uprooted, with small branches scattered all over the grass. you suck in a breath when you spot the broken branch from last night just as you saw it―still barely hanging on as it dangles over your fence.
you must have heard it break off in your sleep, you tell yourself. the mind can be quick in associating these things.
things become weird after that.
you get more visions in your sleep, mostly when the storm beats heavy raindrops against your window. sometimes, they're the same as the first time―instances of you searching outside but blacking out and waking in your bed the next morning. others, they're stranger, more vivid. you see a man with white hair turning red at the tips.
he comes to you in flashes―in between lightning strikes and thunder claps; in fragments, distorted by sheets of rainfall. you can never fully make out his face, but his eyes glow a striking blue amidst the darkness that often surrounds him.
the melatonin makes it worse. for a few nights now, you've begun to see more of his silhouette, similarly hunched over that shrub from the first night, except it grows taller, almost as if he's standing.
you wake up every time he almost reaches full height. but were you even really sleeping?
your therapist tells you it must be stress. this particular time at work is busy, after all. and, "halloween festivities can be impressionable when the mind is tired."
so you let it go, hoping that the dreams disappear eventually.
but then you find a feather. it's long, far too long to belong to any animal you know of; the color is charcoal black, with its tips slightly crisp as if it's been burnt. you find it by the shrub, where the silhouette crouches over every night in your dreams.
your palms sweat as you handle it, a mixture of anxiety and fear. you feel sick to your stomach; scared and disoriented. what even is real?
you call your friend, midoriya, to keep you company. he's no cynic, but if anyone could think up an explanation for anything, it'd have to be him. he has notebooks and journals full of analyses and theories on a bunch of weird things.
"can you tell if he's... uh..." he tries to find the words, as if trying not to scare you, "demonic?"
though with how jittery he is, you're pretty sure he's just as, if not more, nervous.
"i don't know yet," you admit, setting down his blanket for the night, "i guess he does feel kinda angry, but..." you think back to those blue eyes, trying to discern the exact emotion in them, "not at me i think. i don't know."
midoriya jots down some more notes as rain increasingly patters outside your window. you're sure he'll spend the whole night figuring this out from the way he continues to ask you more questions.
that night, you dream of the figure again, but something about this time feels ominous; larger. it starts out with his face, lightning illuminating glimpses of his expressions. you see scars across his cheeks and his hair turning a shade darker. another crackle of lightning brings him further away, hunched over the shrub again, except this time, he begins to stand; and you're prepared to wake up again right before he shows himself in full height―except you don't.
he stands before you still concealed by the downpour, but his presence is simultaneously chilling yet glorious. and you don't expect it, what happens next―the unfurling of wings right by his sides. they span the width of your entire yard, large and so unlike anything you've ever seen before.
then, an alarm breaks, and you wake, neither in bed nor on your front porch.
your feet touch wet asphalt, the sensation hardly differentiating itself from how drenched you are by the rain. thick smoke fills your lungs as you stand before a blazing house a few streets down yours. sirens sound around you―an ambulance, a firetruck, and a police car, all managing the commotion.
people evacuate their nearby houses as the policemen round them up at a safe distance. out of everyone in the scene, you seem the closest of all, the heat from the fire nearly licking at your cheeks.
"everybody, please step back!" one of the firemen shout. to your right, another one hurriedly hauls a body down to the stretcher beside you. a paramedic immediately tends to the person before you can even catch a look.
"please step back!" the fireman closest to you calls out, but the sound is muffled in your ears, almost by a dull ringing and the subtle sound of wings flapping. an unexplainable urge pulls you toward the body.
"hey―!" the fireman tries to call for your attention, but you ignore him, inching closer towards the stretcher. you tiptoe to get a better look, and as you catch a glimpse of the body's face―
the fireman holds you by the shoulder, "i said―!" as another paramedic addresses you and asks, "do you know this man?"
and right there on the stretcher is him―white hair with red at the tips; his cheeks are an angry shiny red, like its been melted, burnt. he remains only semi-conscious, eyes half-lidded as he is tended to. but when you peer over, he blinks and manages to look at you.
you find the same striking blue.
#touya x reader#bnha x reader#shotorus.workbook#omg this one got waaaaay long but i enjoyed playing with this concept!! a bit of a spooky one ? maybe ? (not really!)#i hope you enjoyed!#i wanted to do something that was halloween themed ! and was floating between the idea of making touya smth that was haunting reader#or smth mythological like this ! ultimately i decided on this ! just bc#i felt like a haunting would have the same tone as the prev touya one i did#hmm... if this feels confusing or a bit disorienting that's what i intended ! but also this is my first time doing smth 'horror esque'#midoriya slept in reader's guest room so he didn't hear reader go out of the house#though he heard the alarms and def found reader gone when he woke up#tried calling reader frantically but also realized that reader left their phone !! so theres nothing he could do LOL#man was STRESSIN you can bet. was calling the police and everything. def eventually just went out and tried to look around for reader#then stumbled upon them at the burning house#and when he saw touya he as well. was shookedth to the core (bc he knows it aligns with ur dreams. u told him everyth)#anyway !! im not sure if this is what you had in mind but it was a fun genre to explore!#ask#rep#dieno-tsuki#ask game answered

I do forget the fact that while we focus on dunya and primarily svidrigailov for a while rodya is genuinely just wandering around god knows where. He is goneeee
#floyd.txt#i want to know everything about him ever. honestly really good#everything begins to eat at him so bad he finally becomes so restless and disoriented he wanders and wanders and wanders#as he toils over his final decision. ahhhh#rodka.#hes been found out. he will be arrested. what the hell can he do now. every possible option is so drastic#what else can he do but wander... etc...

Love the new video! Ur singing voice is awesome <3
What do u think Mudpaw was dreaming about in the video? (Or just in general)
Waaaa thank you!!!
I think Mudpaw's bad dreams tend to be very disjointed and hard to follow. They're the type where you wake up afterward and can't make sense of what you dreamed of, you just know the feelings they instilled. I'd liken it to the emotional and mental equivalent of vertigo.
However, i will say that the most common thing to wake him up from a dream these days is the sensation of falling.
i wonder why :)
#ask#mudpaw#giving him my most common type of nightmare: What In The Hell Is Even Happening#anyone else get incredibly disorienting dreams full of The Vague Sense Of Unease and Vast Amounts Of Confusion#genuinely i can only really liken it to vertigo. except instead of your vision spinning it's your brain. im not explaining this well

probably had the sweetest two dreams about gym guy to date
#*#i don't remember how the first started but it became known that we were interested in the other#he was really physically affectionate in that one#brushing pinky fingers#holding hands#his hands softly on me#the second dream was a follow up to the first#we were on a date#and i just remember him telling someone#'see how she glows when she smiles'#or something to that effect#even other people around us told us we were cute together#he made me feel so special in both dreams#in fact he showed me that he thought i was special#man this is gonna make it so disorienting when i see him at the gym later

🌹 🌹 🌹 I’m in baby Jamie withdrawal 😩
HERE YOU GOOOOO would love to share some thank you :) especially now that i'm making progress again
from the kidgang detour i'm taking in chapter 9 of wriggle up on dry land-
The more he learns about them, the more Ted’s view of them evolves, and they've started feeling less like fixtures in a world that he still feels out of place in and more like people he knows - like part of his community alongside Mae Green and the night shift security guards at Nelson. Things mentioned offhandedly in Jamie’s stories betray so much more than he realizes they do about the way he sees the other kids, both what he thinks about them and what he wants them to think about him.
#gav gab#gav answers#ask box games#fic: wriggle up on dry land#writing liveblog#trying to illustrate some things this chapter#and one of those things is jamie's relationship with these school friends of his#and the way it's like#he really wants to be close to them#but won't let them get close to him#and bounces back and forth on that#in a way that's unhelpful and disorienting#while also being equally sweet and sincere sometimes

Song fronting is always very random and sudden WE HOPE EVERYONE WAS NICE YESTERDAY!
#it’s a little disorienting afterwards when we come back to front#cause unlike everyone else song sorta gets stuck in front alone#nd can’t really trigger anybody else#song was a little scared last night because they felt bad for being at front instead of us#cause usually our plans gotta completely change when song fronts because song’s the most detached from us#she struggles to mask nd stuff#song likes introducing himself and being open !#scratches head . song’s got crazy amnesia rn . doesn’t recall lots of stuff we’ve done recently#maybe that’s freaking him out too#that he’s ’too separate’ from us nd therefore letting others down#ahhh hope this makes sense!#thank you everyone who was kind and said hai to song#somebody even drew a picture for them ^_^#did tag

not my dad not liking moral orel season 3 🤭🤭🤭that's so embarrassing for him (<- he's not wrong for feeling that way but i think it's like 60% because he doesn't like it when art gets weird and that's so so tragic for him)
#i actually think his points make sense this time. which tbqh is not normally how i feel when he criticizes smth i love#basically he was like s3 was a completely different show from the first two seasons#and he didn't like how all over the place and directionless it felt#and honestly yeah ok i can see that#personally i think the choice to broaden the focus to moralton broadly vs mostly just orel is really interesting#and it allows for different facets of their critique of fundie waspisms to extend to situations/characters orel wouldn't really be privy to#(could you imagine 'alone' with orel there? me neither)#and i personally liked them fleshing out the marginal characters. i never found that boring or like a major diversion#again they're like 11 min episodic(ish) things it's hard for them to feel like they drag on y'know#it shows a lot of ambition and i think they pulled it off really well tbh (cancellation aside)#but i will agree that the transition is a little sudden. nature is such a big moment for the series#and for orel's arc specifically but then we spend little time with orel post-nature so the tone shift doesn't#necessarily align with his realization (at least in terms of the canon timeline. ep release order does align)#it's sudden but we jump back to before the shattering. it's disorienting and i think it's kind of cool as hell#a realization like orel's in nature is gonna throw the past into question and color his life and thus the town#(bc let's face it orel is the real mayor of moralton kfhsjs) and while we've been seeing Some of moralton's ugliness#in every episode until now it's shown in full force in and post-nature (release-wise). so when the timeline jumps around#and it all feels twisted and hazy and sickening and it All Comes Back To The Hunting Trip as our point of reference#for when things are happening it makes it feel like the trip Caused this disturbance. it's almost a spatio-temporal THING#like orel IS the center of this universe. my point is it's weird and i like it a lot i think it works#but anyway i think s3 is a natural evolution of s1+2 albeit an accelerated one#and i really wish we'd gotten to see more of what s3 morel was cooking bc it was setting up some really cool stuff imo#like he hated everything w mommy censordoll x clay but it's SUCH a cool place to take their characters. freud would go crazy#moral orel#and i think if they knew where they had to end the season maybe focusing on other characters was a way to keep orel stagnant enough to like#end the finale where they needed him. maybe.#we actually DID finish it yesterday. i rewatched the finale the day before bc i was impatient but yeah 👍#now it's chapter black time >:}

jonathan jarchivist sims is such a funny character bc. wdym he lied and said he was ten years older then he actually was because he wanted to seem professional. god i love him
#the magnus archives#tma#jonathan sims#the entirety of the birthday tapes were just so#alsjdjakdkakd#because he was so professional and really just playing the role of Big Bods#he sounded so young but wanted to be Big Boss yk#and he was so disoriented by the change in his plans and the surprise#which is#i want to put him in a blender#<- that
