I did an art style study of Lack
I fell in love with his artstyle and tried to follow along on his newest vodstream were he drew Arurandeisu
These are my personal observations on his drawing process which might be usefull for other,though I do highly recommend following along too to his streams
Tumblr media
Tumblr media
he drew a rough sketch in red in which he also more or less decided upon the composition,anatomy,pose and angle of the illustration
after that came the refinenment of said sketch and general clean up
he then blocked in the base colors and added light and shadow to everything
important to note is the fact that I don't know if everything was done on one layer or on multiple,so I just did everything on one layer
Lack then made the colored sketch less visible and started with the lineart
he began with the face by using the symmetry tool. Because I couldn't rotate mine,I did used it like normal and then moved it into position afterwards
the lines are thin in general,thinner on the face and slightly less thin on the clothing,also he made the lineart really thick where no light was hitting the object/figure,but used this sparingly
when he started the coloring process I couldn't really follow along. Mostly because I couldn't figure out how he did it exactly. You see,he first colored in a base(say the skin for example) and then clipped it with the colored sketch? I'm not sure on that one,so I just redid the colors
final cleanups on smaller things,adjustment of the lighting and colors
that was what I could take away from this. If I knew Japanese I would've probably been able to learn some more but also,he was talking about video games and I think vacation somewhere sooo,,,maybe I did understand everything there was about drawing

Chucky headcanons: Charles finding out you are being harassed at your workplace (requested)
Tumblr media
Warnings: Implied sexual harassment leading to assault and Chucky avenging the reader. The description of the abuser was especified by the requester.
Notes: I didn't properly proofread this cause i'm finishing writing from my phone and i don't have my translator on it. Also, this is the first male reader request i got and i hope i'm doing it justice :) My inspiration for this were bits of the series and the Curse deleted scene where Chucky kills Daniel. Despite being two different versions of Chucky at different points of the franchise, i found both usefull to imagine this.
-At first you were very afraid to tell Chucky of what was happening to you. You know he has volatile, violent reactions and you were afraid of what that could unleash.
-Your abuser was a coworker and it all started in little hints, jokes going a bit too far and confusing episodes that left you feeling like it all could be a misunderstanding.
-The accumulation of those ' misunderstandings' changed your perception and you started to be very afraid of being left alone with him. You were feeling constantly surveiled and terrified but the source of your fear was completely invisible to everyone arround you.
-The creepy old dude harassing you was a long term employee everyone knew. Even you were deceived by him at first, at least untill he started getting too " friendly" with you.
-Chucky perceived something was wrong. Not that you have allways been super passionate about your work, but he could tell you didn't want to go there anymore. You would allways deny every of his attempts to point out you weren't alright. He just wanted to help, but you wouldn't let him.
-He may not be the best talking about feelings, but he is very protective and he hates to see you suffering. You may think he didn't, but he realized you are terrified. He knows the signs of fear in a victim too well to not spot those.
-In the first discussions your position oscilated between denying everything and begging him not to interfere because you needed the job, but the situation kept escalating untill reaching a point of no return.
-You were supposed to pick up a few boxes from the warehouse. While you were searching for the stuff you didn't realized you were being followed inside. You ended up completely alone with your abuser and he cornered you, taking advantage of your shock, then easily overpowered you.
-That was the moment in which you knew it had to stop. As soon as you could you reached the phone to call Chucky.
-You tried to explain yourself, but couldn't get into details. All he heard clearly was your wrecked voice begging him to come pick you up.
- It was the sign he was waiting for. Not that Chucky needed any permission to do it, but he didn't want to upset you and he had been craving to step in for so long.
- Only that his intervention could have one single possible end and you were aware of it, which was the cause of your refusal. Chucky wouldn't just scare him, he was not going to let the job unfinished.
- He had killed for way less, you could be sure he was 100% ready to get revenge in your name.
-By that moment he was aware. He has passed by your workplace a few times and had seen the dude. You wouldn't have to tell him anything for him to spot your " friendly " coworker is a creep, he could smell it from a mile away.
- Chucky has been stalking the place behind your back, learning his schedule and following him outside to figure out his after work habits. He had it in mind all along.
- " Don't worry, I'm coming for ya." He interrupted your rambling on the phone with macabre excitement. " ... I got you, let me handle it."
-You stoicly endured the rest of your shift with the only comfort of knowing he would show up, but it was taking too long.
- He was going after your abuser, following him out. They already knew each other and he wouldn't suspect of anything when approached.
- During the last moments of his life he made him experience the exact kind of powerlessness he made you feel. Chucky utilized his trusting appearance to deceive him into keeping a lower guard, followed him like a shadow and cornered him in a spot where no one could hear him.
- " This goes for (y/n). Did you think you were gonna get away with it, you piece of shit? Is that what gets you going? " He mockfully asked him ríght after the first stab. " Well this is what gets ME going and you ain't messing with him anymore"
- The lifeless body of your attacker was still in the trunk of his car when he arrived to pick you up.
- It was his surprise for you and that night you helped him dump it in the river.

Would Lloyd still get kidnapped by the snakes and Garmadon would have to help the Ninja ?
Would Nya find her true potential the same way Kai did ?
Yes, unfortunatelly Lloyd would get kidnapped and they need Garmadon.
How would Nya find her true potential?
Unlocking her true potential would be diffrent to Kai. They are two diffrent people who have other weaknesses.
So what's blocking Nya form unlocking her true potential?
Guilt Nya feels guilty towards Kai. She feels like she owns him something.
To explain everything when they were young Kai had to take care of Nya. During this time it wasn't easy for both of them, especially since Kai was still a child.
He had to find work, so he could provide money and food for both him and Nya. During her childhood Nya could often see Kai working very hard and often comming back home and immiediatelly going to bed, because he was so exhaused. He was always tired and on his hands she could always see wounds and scars from overhelming work.
After a while Kai also dropped out of school, because he couldn't work and study at the same time. It was simply too much for him, so he decided that, he'd only work instead.
Even though Nya wanted to do the same to support him, he refused and told her to go to school, so she would be well educated. He wanted her to have easier in the future.
During her childhood Kai was amazing brother, who cared deeply about her. He played with her, fixed her clothes, helped with simple stuff, bought or cooked meals and always smiled.
Even Kai's best efforts, he wasn't able to hide their poor situation and at some point Nya was able to notice. She was very cleaver girl.
Kai sacrificed so much for her.. His time, energy, health, childhood.
Seeing her brother sacrificing so much for her made Nya feel guilty, to the point when she started to ask herself if it would be easier for Kai if she wasn't there.
But the breaking point was when she noticed one time that Kai didn't eat anything on purpose so that it would be enough food for her.
Often their financial situation had ups and downs. I those times when there wasn't enough money for food, Kai lied to Nya that he had already eaten or wasn't hungry, so that she could eat.
But one time the brunette was able to catch him, drinking lots of water to numb the pain in his stomach.
This memory became deeply embedded in her mind and every time the situation in their home wasn't good, she started asking herself question.
Would it be better if I wasn't here? - If not me Kai wouldn't have to work that hard, to support two people. Maybe he'd still go to school. He wouldn't be so tired-
Nya just feels guilty.
She feels as if she's an albatross around Kai's neck. That she's holding him back or she isn't doing enough for him, as much as he for her.
Every time she got a present form her brother, she'd be excited because of it and then later sad, feeling like she doesn't deserve it.
But she didn't tell anything about this to Kai, thinking she'd make even more problems for him.
So she kept quiet.
Then suddenly there was a time, when Nya took a part in the technical competition and won. The brunette always loved building and at the teacher's urging, she applied. At first it was nice and funny experience for her, but then she recived a cash price for the first place.
That's when something new started. Nya won money and finnaly could help his brother.
In that moment she felt usefull, like she could help Kai and the fact that he was proud of her achievement made her even more motivated.
Nya started participing more in this competitions. She was determined and hard working.
To get some money she had to won first places. To achieve her goals she had to be the best.
If she wanted to be the best her projects had to be perfect, she told herself. There couldn't be any mistake.
Because when she was the best she could make a diffrence, she can help or even protect him.
Druing this time her guilt turned into light obsession over being the best, which had a big impact during her life as a ninja.
In the pilot when sceleton attacted Smiths Kai was kidnapped instead of Nya, because he kinda sacrificed himself.
Kai preffered that they'd take him instead of his dear sister. He'd do anything to protect her.
Meanwhile Nya was devastated, but also determined to get her brother back. That's why during her training with master Wu she was working very hard and became a ninja.
Later after she got Kai back they moved in.
Nya was actually very happy. They had new home and everything in abundance. She was very happy, because she could train with her new friends and Kai didn't need to work anymore.
Of course nothing would bring back his childhood and that time, but it was better than nothing. But at least now Kai could do anything he wanted and be safe.
But then as we know things started to get complicated and snakes appeared.
Kai & Lloyd's relationship improved and later Nya found out that Kai was Samurai X.
At first she was very mad, because she hated the man who stole her project, but then she felt confused.
Nya felt confused and angry, because why her brother had also to risk and fight for her? Why couldn't he just stop looking for her and simply enjoy his life?
Nya was angry, but once again left those thoughts only to herself.
And later we come to the (s01.ep10) when ninjas are going to safe Lloyd and go for the blade.
Kai didn't stay at the Bounty, because he wanted to make sure that his brother will be safe. So he went with the others.
During the missionin the end Llod, Nya & Kai are stuck in the vulcano and here Kai & Nya argue.
Kai: Nya c'mon we need to go! I've got Lloyd.
Nya: Then go! *still tries to take the blade*
Kai angry: Nya the whole place is going to errupt! Please take my hand!
Nya stubborn: I can do it myself!
Kai irritated: Why won’t you let me help you?!
Nya yell angrily: Because you’ve already done enough for me!
Kai confused: ..Nya what- What are you talking about?
Nya: *just realised what she had said and is terrified*
Nya: You sacrificed so much for me- If not me.. So let me just take care of you as you did for me!
Kai finally reasiling: Nya-
Nya desperately: Please, let me stop being your burden-!
Kai: You've never been!
Everyone: .....
Kai: Nya, you don't need to be the best or even good. You've always been enough for me-
Nya: Stop! If not me-!
Kai: Without you I wouldn't be here.
Nya shocked: ....
Kai: If not you, I wouldn't have strengh to fight. You were my motivation to keep going. Every time I felt like everything was breaking, you were the one that help me go through this- *smiles genuinely*
Nya: *smiles and takes his hand*
After that Nya found her true potential.
Nya played an important role in Kai's childhood, when their parents were gone.
If not she, he'd have been at his breaking point.
That little girl made him smile every time he felt bad and didn't make him feel lonely. Nya made him less scared and give him hope.
At that time he also made two promises:
I'll protect you at all cost.
I'll never leave you.

No one can convince me Carmilla didn't gave at least Jonny, Aurora, Nastya and Ashes THE TALK. They are her kids. She hates every single moment of the conversation but she did try her best to be a good mom (with very mixed results).
Assuming Jonny was at least partially telling the truth, when she got him he was a teen from an asteroid that seems to be a crime riding conservative based hell and I doubt he went to school for long if at all anyway. So he certainly needs it (also potentially Carmilla teached him to read/write).
Nastya was an overprotected princess and while I think Carmilla almost didn't gave her The Talk cause she was a princess with tutors so maybe she had it? When her and Aurora started dating Carmilla felt the need to give both of them the talk.
Now she was already Aurora's mom for a while but before Nastya she had no idea how intimacy would work for the Aurora and had to really do her research so she could truly help her daugthers (she considers both of them daugthers but they met older and are not in any way sibblings) navigate their relationship.
Now I'm uncertain if she did it to Ashes or assumed they had learned it with the Lucky Sevens but as a doctor I think she wouldn't want to risk and would give them the talk as well. Jonny would love the fact he wasn't the only one to suffer through that and properly terrorize Ashes with the idea beforehand, Nastya would just shrug and say it was not a conversation she ever wanted to repeat but was usefull, Aurora would beep to say it was akward but blushing Nastya was adorable the whole time.
I think Ivvy would already have the information about it stored in her brain together with basically everything else so no need. And Brian was already a full educated adult before being Mechanized. No one knows if TS had sex ed or not but it never appeared to be a problem.
Marius, Raphaela and Tim all became mechanized after Carmilla and were old enough to have had the talk anyway.

Genshin boys and unexpected confession
Summary-they confess unintentionally
Characters-xaio, diluc, scaramouche
Xiao
-confession would be only in a situtation where he had to act before thinking
You and xiao were friends, actually pretty close friends. You usually visited him or went on walks with him, he tho knew that he liked you more than other mortals he was unsure of how to approach it so he kept it in himself for a long time. Well until one time, you came to xiao to tell him about ur day as usually, he was listening to you while looking over liyue. Suddenly you got interrupted by a guy approaching you. The guy was really shy and red in the face. He stuttered something about taking you out for dinner. You quiet didnt hear him and when u were about to ask what he was saying xiao jumped in and snapped at the guy "theyre not interested you can leave". Xiao is very feared amongst the people of liyue so the guy dissapeard faster than my dad. You (still confused) turned to xiao and confusedly asked why he made that guy leave so quickly. He instantly just blurred out "bc i dont want anyone else to love you" or smth like that you were to shocked and flustered to hear anything anyways. After realizing what hes said he just dissapears u can tell him u love him too after he decides to show up again
Diluc
-would do it witbout even noticing at first
After the tavern closed, diluc usually lets you stay around because u always insist on helping him clean up. Today was no different, you guys were busy cleaning the whole time so u didnt talk a lot. After some time you were so tired, you litteraly sat on the first wooden chair u found and juzt wanted to fall asleep. Diluc walks by u and taps you on the shoulder, "you should go to sleep". You quickly stand up and shake ur head in disagreement, "noo dont worry about me ill help u finish it". Diluc takes the brrom next to the chair and starts sweeping "how can i not worry about you?" he asks sighing. You quickly say "why do u even care so much if im tired" in a teasing/cheerfull tone. He says "i care bc i like you and dont want you to overwork urself", he instantly looks at you trying to see if you heard him say that, he really didnt want to confess his feelings like this... But for his unluck( or luck?) you heard him loud and clear ;)
Scaramouche
-would be in a life ir death situation
Scaramouche never thought about confessing, like he didnt want to show his vulnerable side did he. So he denied his crush on u for damn ages, until one day you were on a mission with him, shneznaya is a cold place so you were partly freezing partly dying from the enemies. Scaramouche hates going on missions with you, like yes he loves spending tine with you and it helps him get closer to you but he hates the pressure of having to be a show off the whole entire time when ur around. Like bro is tryna prove that hes usefull in all possible ways he will litteraly randomyl start picking fights with people that look at you guys wrong just to show off hoa strong he is🙄. But this time the enemies were a lot more trained than the other basic hillichurs these were some well trained bandits. You guys were almost done with them, when in the corner of ur eye you see one bandit half bleeding swinging at scaramouche. You dont think any second and jump in to take a hit for him, then everything is dark. The only thing you can here next the 6th of the fstui harbingers holding u and yelling at you "YOU IDIOT,... hey hey dont you dare die dont die on me i love you alright?". That dumbass thought u were unconscious, hah.
REQUEST OPEN!!
Feedback, likes, reposts and comments are very appreciated <33

While I agree that liddol Toshi wasn't saying that there was no other role for him in the society, even with your interpretation he still gives himself less value as the others. 'Nothing is expected from me and I have no family, so I can freely go and put my life on the line to protect everyone else'. And it's not just that he was brushing off other people's kindness, it's also the fact that he saw All Might as more needed and important than Yagi Toshinori. He felt useless and helpless once he lost OFA, and had troubles with seeing how he can still be needed and usefull. Horikoshi even brought up the moment Toshi told Izuku that he can't be a hero without a quirk in this fight.
I definitely agree that Toshi felt useless and helpless without OFA. But I’ve come around to the idea that there’s not really a duality between All Might and Toshinori Yagi. OFA or not, they are the same person. It’s what Toshi tells Shoto in Ch. 386 — the body and mind are two halves of a whole. And I think Toshi’s need to feel useful arises from the person he is. It’s not that Toshi values himself “less” as much as his heart beats for others. His soul and his consciousness are at peace when they serve others. It may sound “crazy,” but young Toshi originally intended to become the Symbol of Peace without a quirk. As a teenager, he thought of his quirklessness and orphan status as assets — it meant he had nothing to lose. Why not try to change the world without a quirk? Like Izuku, Toshi just doesn’t care what happens to himself. Toshi is glad to try saving someone with his metal pipe, even if it’s a dumb idea that probably couldn’t succeed (like Izuku charging at the slime villain). Toshi thinks saving is “the coolest thing someone can do,” so he thinks nothing of putting himself in danger. Toshi’s fantasy was never having a quirk or being a superhero; it was stopping the cycle of grief and hatred so everyone could live with a smile.
Tumblr media
Once he had OFA, and became All Might (which was before Nana died, as she calls him by his hero name in All Might Rising), things got muddy. Actually, I dare say it’s Nana’s presence in his life that changed things — she cared about Toshi, and was like a mother to him. That screws up his entire reason for himself being the ideal symbol that had nothing to lose. And then he DID lose Nana, so he doubled down on keeping others at arm’s length. I don’t think it’s possible to separate young Toshi’s understanding of himself as “All Might” from his need to be isolated. He successfully pitched the idea of becoming “All Might” because he was alone, and then his life experiences proved to him that, yes, All Might needed to remain alone. Then, the more successful All Might became, and the more people forgot about the man behind the hero, the more Toshi got lost in All Might.
Over time, Toshi distanced himself from his original idea to be the Symbol without a quirk. He became less “human.” In his 50s, having survived a gruesome injury, he saw that idea as youthful folly. So when Izuku asks in Chapter 1 if he can be a hero without a quirk, well, we get Toshi answering “no.” Just like Nana, Izuku’s young enthusiasm and selfless spirit wins the hero over, but Toshi still thinks Izuku needs a quirk. It’s only after Ch.326 and the Stain pep talk that Toshi understands the real “All Might” was his heart and soul all along, not OFA. Toshi realizes his original teenage ideals were right. It’s why Ch. 398 shows us these 3 panels together:
Tumblr media
Toshinori Yagi cannot live his life in any way except for the sake of others. That means accepting he will put himself in danger in order to save. As he told Nighteye after his initial injury, he won’t stop helping until he’s dead. The difference is that now the risk of his death is far less because he’s accepting his humanity and accepting the help of others. Toshi is understanding that he’s not the only one who lives for others — people are willing to die to save HIM.
That’s why I struggle with the argument that Toshi and Izuku see themselves at this point in the story as having “less worth” than the people they save. We’re now seeing other characters like Stain laying down their lives (or close to it) to save Toshi and Izuku, as well as other heroes, villains, and civilians. The story has been clear that true heroism inherently involves risk, and frequently some kind of sacrifice. The key is knowing the difference between needlessly rushing towards death and living on to save another day. Right now, Toshi has to keep living to distract AFO, as he’s the only one who can. Beyond that, I’d say he has to keep living to see AFO eradicated, and Izuku and 1A rising to take up the mantle of the Symbol along with citizens. Creating a bigger network of hope and light is how Toshi’s fantasy becomes reality.

Hello! I read some of your reposts about importance of comments and that any can be usefull to self evaluation as author. My question - is it weird and uncomfortable if people bring too many personal problems commenting your fics? Like, do you distant yourself out from comments that bring a lot of person's drama, does it feel uplifting in the end, if comment is a lot about reader's not so happy history? Can you still feel joy from that kind of comment?Thanks for unswer if you do.Have a nice day!
Hi anon,
So, this is kind of complex. I would say the vast majority of people don't overshare at all, and when they are sharing from their lives, it's in a way that makes complete sense and is very 'contained.' I can tell they're not expecting emotional labour from me, and that they're sharing because they found a point of resonance between themselves, the story, the situation, or the character/s, or a combination of all of the above.
And like, that's a part of why I write, y'know? I want to strike up that sense of resonance in folks who relate to these characters, so when people share that it has resonated, that's like... purposeful and meaningful to me. I feel like I've made a connection. I also sometimes feel sorrowful - like when someone explains they relate to Efnisien because of abuse they've also experienced, or when someone explains that they relate to a character's chronic illness because of their own.
But I can also generally tell through tone and language that the commenter doesn't expect labour from me, they're speaking their pain into the world in a way that's like 'this is me, and here's this character, and we both share this thing in common.' In a perfect world, none of us would know what this kind of pain is like. In this world, a lot of us do, and we get to feel less alone when we read stories where we feel seen.
And that is, by and large, the general experience when readers share something personal that they resonated with in a comment.
That being said, I do also maintain very strong boundaries with people's personal matters, because I'm not someone who's 'healed and above all my own issues who is sharing what I've learned to people still going through it' I am someone who is still going through it. And often folks have no idea what kind of day I'm having or how I'm feeling when they comment, and so... on the very very rare occasion I do get a comment that feels like it's pushing for some kind of emotional labour that's beyond what I can give... I will not give that labour. I will acknowledge their comment, thank them for reading, and not...give energy I don't have to spare.
And like, honestly, 99 times out of 100, everyone is very respectful of that and even caring towards it.
I can probably count on like two hands, in ten years, the commenters who I felt had become very self-focused or what I felt was over-sharing in comments in a way that sort of...was no longer about me or the story, where they just treated the comment section as a diary instead. In those cases I tend to leave very brief acknowledgements, as a kind of 'I see this, I know this is painful, but this is not my lane, and I don't want this to be my lane.' But a more compassionate version of that.
If anything, the most personal stories, anon, come to me in Asks that are sent via Tumblr, off anonymous, so I can reply privately. These folks are usually very...aware that I might not be in the space to hear them, and are frankly the most 'if you don't have time or energy to reply please don't pressure yourself', so I feel no burden or obligation and that usually makes it easier to reply in my own time.
The ones that come to me via anon, I only reply to selectively, and that depends on a few factors. Some things are extremely personal and frankly I'm not comfortable replying because even if I did it would be to say 'I think a professional needs to handle this.' I've also - very rarely - had a few people do things that were not cool, to manipulate me into caretaking them, usually because they want the comfort feeling that one of my characters creates, and then from there thinks 'Pia made that character so they can give that to me instead.' This doesn't happen often, but it's very distinct when it does.
But that's rare! Super rare!
It might be that others read the comments of folks in fics and think 'I would never share those kinds of details about my life like that' and that's fine for them - but some folks do need to share, and want to feel seen because they felt seen during the fic, and I have no problems with that in general.
I have learned so so much about the human condition, about the fact that things that I thought literally no one would relate to are things that actually a lot of people relate to, etc. through the grace and vulnerability of the folks who comment on my fics with personal anecdotes or even just 'I've been through something like this, and I thought you showed it well / it's a painful thing to go through.'
I know a lot of authors wouldn't have much patience with that maybe? I don't know. I'm literally writing trauma recovery, mental illness and chronic illness, queerness and neurodivergence, and people going through tough times. I don't think an author ends up writing that stuff if they're generally not looking to make a connection with fellow folks who have also gone through some tough times! And even if I can't be those people's support systems, I think all of us having these ephemeral moments of effectively saying: 'Same bro' through the comments, is pretty powerful, and magical, actually.
Caveat: If a person brings personal problems into my fics with the expectation that I will then fix them, that's something I don't really do and don't enter into. That's where my boundaries are firm. Sometimes I won't even acknowledge those kinds of situations at all. If a person reads something for free and then seeks to obligate a complete stranger into being their support or therapist, there's a much bigger issue going on there that isn't my business, and I generally will maintain significant distance in those situations.
TL;DR - I don't think I'd write these stories if I didn't want to make connections with folks who have also gone through some hard times. The vast majority of people who bring up personal stuff aren't necessarily bringing me 'joy' - but I don't just look for joy in the comments, anon, I also look for connection, resonance, moments of feeling less alone, and sometimes that's not easy, but it's still very special. As for the very rare occasions where someone wants me to personally hold their hand, I step back, because a) that's not my job, and b) I don't think folks realise sometimes just how much proverbial hand-holding I need as well lol - I might sound like I have my shit together, but I do not.

Are you indiginous Russian, or etnic Russian? I'm asking this because I'm confused. If the former, then I understand. It's a shame Russians killed a lot of those tribes (a lot went extinct). But if the later, then I don't understand. You are now not part of a group, culture, and country that doas not view women as people, is about only vailenc in every form of it (phisical, mental, emotional, sexual, ect).
I mean Russians view wife beating as a form of love to the point that women who abendond it, and got together with non Russian men, were questioning if they partners loved them dou to them not beating them. Just look at Russia's domastic vailenc statistics, or how they say "It's a family value" about it. Or how there are up and running websites there, where they dox people who live there and part of the Lgbtq community, in hopes that they will get killed for it. Or what are they doing in Ukraine, and in the countries they went to. In Georgia Russians are openly fetishes the locals, whaile taking resorces away from them. Ask people from Ukraine, Poland, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Hungary, Romania, or from any country that Russia has a history with. They will tell you the truth, and that really nothing good, or usefull, or worthy come out of that country, that culture, and those people seince the Russian revolution.
Sorry if I sound rude, but I just don't get it, why someone would be proud of it, and call themself that.
I'm both. My mother is Russian & my father is Chuvash. I have never been ashamed of my Russian family & I never will be. Being ashamed of it & pretending it doesn't exist won't magically make the bad parts dissappear. I simultaneously have a deep love for Russia's rich culture & history while not ignoring the suffering & wrong that's happened along the way (& is still happening). Holding both truths at the same time is possible regardless if people believe it or not. In my humble opinion, holding both truths & acknowledging the ugly parts of one's history is necessary for genuine healing, progression & a complete sense of self. But of course, that doesn't mean we endorse those horrible things. We should use them as a blueprint to do better in the present & future. That's all any of us can do.
These days it seems like so many people can't see outside of this Black vs. White polarizing way of thinking. It honestly drives me insane.
There's not a single country that hasn't committed atrocities in it's past. There's not a single person alive who's ancestors haven't done some fucked up shit. Are you sending these types of messages to Japanese people? They were committing some pretty horrific war crimes back during ww2 like The Rape Of Nanjing. What about Germans? They were genociding Jews, Slavs & Romani. What about the Dutch? They killed a fuck ton of the Lenape people when founding New Amsterdam (now known as New York City). Wait what about the various tribes in Africa that have been at war with each other since time immemorial? Ever heard of the Volhynia Massacre where Ukrainians slaughtered & raped Poles? What about Turks? Mongolians? Chinese? Indians? Need I go on? Are all people everywhere supposed to hate themselves? Or is it just Russians who are expected to perform this masochistic self-flagellation to appease random people on the internet?
Take a long hard look at your own history before pointing fingers at others. You're bound to find a skeleton or 2 in your own closet that you're not proud of.

One question often asked when talking about dwarves is… “what did they eat under their mountain?”
Well we know dwarves – especially in times of great riches – traded large quantities of food with men.  To quote Thorin Oakenshield: “we never bothered to grow or find food ourselves” (-p28 – The Hobbit).  To sustain a large population of dwarves however ocasional trade of food from the surface wouldn’t have been enough to prevent mass starvation underground.   Which brings us to the question, what is there too eat in dark places of the world ?
Firstly we need to get a bit of an idea of how many dwarves we are feeding.  At the end of the Third age dwarven numbers were on the decline, but judging by the dwarven armies, the fact that 1/3 is female and dwarves aren’t exactly rabbits when it comes to reproducing, numbers couldn’t have been much higher then 15.000 at any given time. Let’s take the Lonely Mountain in 2760 of the Third Age, some ten years before Smaug attacked… The Halls of the Lonely Mountain would have been bursting with dwarven life, likely up to 8.000 dwarves around this time.   So this amount of dwarves isn’t fed by the occasional food trade with the men, nor by the stray bat… it would take a food industry to keep them alive and thriving.
If we consider healthy dwarven males and women would eat about 1100 grams a day,  And we take into account a population of 8.000, we need just over 3 million kilo’s (6,6 million Lbs) of food per year.  If dwarves would rely on trade to feed their own then they would need about 13.000 wagons (230kg a piece) fully loaded with food each year, or about 35 a day.  So, I believe it is safe to say there is no way Dale and the surrounding region could have sustained the dwarves of the Lonely Mountain.
This creates a major challenge you might think… where do the dwarves find over 3 million kilo’s of food under a mountain ? Is it even possible ?
Yes, it is… let me tell you how.
First thing you need to know is that bats are the corner stone of the dwarven food-pyramid.  Bats are not just hunted on by chance, in order to sustain a dwarven population of several thousands, dwarven cities would have had several dozens of bat farms.  Bats aren’t just usefull for their meat, in fact they would have been mainly used for their sh… uhm.. their droppings (guano).  Yes you read it correctly, their droppings… which would have provided nutrition for a whole foodchain.  The guano is food to countless creatures, including flies, beetles, bugs, millipedes, springtails, cockroaches, worms, mites and moths. These animals are in turn fed upon by the cave crickets, centipedes, scorpions, whip scorpions and spiders. And these provide food for small mammals (rats, cavemice), cavecrabs, frogs, toads, salamanders, snakes and turtles.  The dwarves would have farmed many of these animals, sometimes growing them by the millions or billions, either as a direct food source or as food for the dozens of fish, frog and turtle farms found under the dwarven mountains.    Bats even provide milk, indeed… bat milk… not going into the details on how they were milked, but trust me, it is possible.
Now in most temperate caves – climates found in most of dwarven caves of Middle Earth – dwarves run into the problem that it is too cold to support the amount of fauna needed to support their population.  In order to sustain large amounts of life in caves, the micro climate inside the mountain needs to be warmer, verging on tropical.  This allows the bats to breed faster, providing more droppings, which in turn allows the insect population to boom – ensuring a steady food supply for the fish and bat farms under the mountain.
Even in the colder subarctic climates of the Grey Mountains dwarves managed to create different inner climates in their Halls that allowed to sustain the food sources of their population.  This is done mainly through creating lava chambers deep in the heart of the mountain and creating steam channels that lead to the various halls in the mountain.     Their adapted mountain microclimate would have also provided for quite a few natural salt caves, which isn’t only handy for seasoning or keeping food.  In case you believe living underground would be tremendously unhealthy… in our modern times people pay hundreds of dollars to spend a few hours in fake salt caves.
Also, their mirror systems allowed them to channel natural sunlight from openings in the mountain sides to every corner of the underground mountain, even allowing them to grow some vegetables (potatoes and carrots), northern grains and berries deep inside the mountain.
With all of the above in mind, the Lonely Mountain dwarves in our example would have been eating the following over the course of a year (some examples of dishes added there too – by the way these dishes actually exist – so for the squeemish… you’ve been warned)
* 1.190.000 kilo’s of batmeat (crispy fried batwings, batsoup)
* 1.120.000 kilo’s of fish and crab (boiled cavecrabs, cavefish cassarole)
* 146.000 liters of fishoil
* 890.000 kilo’s of bugs (crickets on a stick, cheesy beetle dip, millipede-paté)
* 657.000 kilo’s of snakemeat (snake hotpot)
* 340.000 kilo’s of spiders (fried spiders)
* 124.000 kilo’s of turtlemeat (turtle stew)
* 216.000 liters of batmilk – you would need to milk about 5800 bats for that each day – but still possible though
* 450.000 kilo’s of vegetables (rootpuree, cavepotato soup)
* 235.000 kilo’s of scorpionmeat (scorpion kebab)
* 389.000 loaves of bread
as you can see, no shortage of food in the mountain

Trauma dump and a rant about g house.
Every once and again you get struck by motivation. And so was I. So gather up children as I tell you the story of my fucked up relationship with this absolutely amazing genere of music:
Let me set the stage, I was around 18 at the time and I adored anything and everything that came out of confession label, I just broke up with the first real boyfriend I've ever had. To make matters worse I tried molly (escapism taken to the maximum) and I had just finished watching bojack horseman.
I was invited to a party, becasue the host wanted my best friend to come and it would be so fucking bizzare if she came without me apparently. I knew like 3 people there but most often they were too bussy with each other to even care about me.
Long fucking story short I really had a bad time being the outsider. So to deal with that I was drinking. HEAVILY. Literary black out drunk. Than a thought was in my brain 'I want to see the view from half-down, so maybe I could feel any kind of regret, any reason why I should have lived.'
I didn't even have time to process the thought because the next thing I saw was the view from the 6th floor balcony's barricade. And I felt people dragging me off of it. Needless to say I was under constant surveilence for the rest of the night. There were 2 older guys who were also doing music, so they were designated to watch over me because they had something they could be talking about with me.
I felt jelous. They were so much better than me at that point. And actually cool. Even gave me some usefull tips for singing and producing.
I wanted to pretend to be someone, to be happy with the work I put out. And so I set my sights on captuchring the jelousy, anger, hatered, and hopleness into an EP. That was the 'philosophy' released on my youtube channel in 2019.
Later I became ashamed of myself. I wanted to cut myself off from that person and never look back. 'Burry this old version and don't set up the grave stone so he can never be found' type beat. But my life has gotten better. And I've grown so much as an artist. I decided that I'd rather celebrate the overcomming of those emotions and bettering oneself instead of hidding away.
So I created a track emulating that old school g house. It's avilable too see on my channel right now. Along with the rest of the ep because I truly believe that now I am someone, I am happy with the work I put out.
Thank you for listening to my story and remember: just because a world died, does not mean it will stay that way.
Here is the link to the entire ep. now featuring the newest track 'the last philosopher'
(yes I do feel kinda bad self promoting after that huge wall of trauma dump but I know I would be curious to hear those tracks)

DBH 9
Character references: C: Chance, Fa: Fabian (one of C’s friends & an actor from Na’s favorite show), Na: Naomi (K & J's daughter), Br: Chatty/Bratty (N's & Ct's Daughter, but bratty fits her way better if you ask me lol), Mel: Melody (Fa's girlfriend), Mi: Mindy (one of Na's friends), Lv: Levi (C's childhood friend & one of the Stanton Grand kids)
As you could imagine, Br was not happy about his treatement towards her. After Some more bickering C finally had enough and just left her at the table. Br was devastated. She was very sure that he would try to make amends. But she was clearly wrong on how it ended. She knew that she could have been nicer to him as well but she was too prideful to openly admit it.
C was about to reach the exit until he goy held up by one of the waiters. The waiter asked him if he already played for his drink. But this waiter felt oddly familiar to him and asked the guy about his name. The dude started acting sketchy and C secretly pressed something in his pocket. His dad wanted his kids and wife to be prepared for any kind of problem. Yes, even C. They had enough troubles b4 to understand that they cant just do what ever they wanted. Not like S would have done anything stupid like the other ppl had in The past.
That's why he gave C and S some little device that functions as a recorder and a silent alarm for their own protection. The 2 functions can be turned on and off individually. But his dad tells him everytime to let both turned on. C was appreciative, but he didn't like the alarm too much since his bodyguards would storm in with no regards to the other guests. But he really liked the recoring feature otherwise.
Some would think that recording a conversation would not be usefull. But then again that guy was too unerving with every question our boy throws at him. Cl came inside after his passenger wouldn't come back. As their eyes met the older man rushes back to his young master and excuses himself. Cl dragged the teenager away from the waiter and went straight home.
Back at the Ferguson estate
S was catching up on some sleep while Se and some of his playground friends were watching the fantasy show he liked. He found some kids that were fans of it as well and he invited them to watch it on their big TV screen.
Because Se was not enrolled in an official school he didnt have many friends outside his parents circle of business partners and their own kids. But those were the 1st ones that he seems to have a connection with. As C walked inside he went traight bavk into his room and placed his device next to his laptop. That thing had a useful extra about it, when connetetd to a pc or other device with a screen it would upload the content that was recored prior, and it then searched automatically for the voice/s that come close to the person speaking.
Since some of his words were recorded as well, the first few findings were his own videos and chats he had on his pc. And it happens that he had a small voice clip of this dude a few months ago. The guy tried agin to get an interview but C stopped what ever he was doing and cut the video. So the device found the source pretty quickly as it poped up on screen. He called Mt to get some information about this guy, which his dad's assistant obliged with no further questions.
While he waited for the results, C decided to look up Fa's GF. He was curious if Fa was right about her being a great designer. And wouldn't you know it she was. Mel was not a big fish by any means but the was good enough to have some of her things featured in a small amout of popular magazines.
He saw a beautiful hand bag and matching bag charm, that Mel designed, and was thinking to purchase it for his parents anniversary next week. He got E one of his favorite wine he sometimes likes to drink.
After some brainstorming he ordered the bag with his bff's GF trinket so that it arrived on time. Since he got all their presents taken care of, the boy started doing his homework.
At E's work place
E was reviewing some of his papers as Mt walked in. E was not happy about his employee to just storm in his office without knocking, but Mt said it was urgent. The guy he investigated was known for either joke articles or trash talk media. The mans name was Garry Flor, he was following E and his fam for a while now. Hoping to get a scoop for his stories. But luckily for the Ferguson's, they knew how to avoid him. But sometimes he tries to get creative.
In case he needed to be in front of his target, he dresses up in unsuspicious attire, like a sales man or in that case a waiter. Some speculated that an accomplice makes the clothes he needs or bribes the store owners to lend some work clothes.
Garry just had one problem. He was an attention seeker. So he would be a guest at late night talk shows. With that he would get exposer but, at the same time, wouldn't need to worry about majority of the puplic recognizing his face.
To his bad luck tho, C likes to sit in the living room on weekends and watch some trash TV to make fun of their shows. One late evening C stumbled on one of those shows Garry was present. He found him nothing short of annoying. His bragging got on his nerves. Thats the first time he saw his face clearly. In previous attempts of getting any statements, they wouldnt give him any attention and just avoid eye contact.
After finishing his report, Mt asked his boss what he wants him to do. E was irritated by this news and tells him to lok further. After Mt left, E urgently called his son to get some much needed answers.
C was still working on some math task when he got straddled by a sudden noise. As expected, his dad's name appeared on sceen and casually picked up the call. He knew his dad would get to know about this. He has been with him long enough to know his personality. E was trying not to be angry, but his son was supposed to be careful when he is out. C explained what happened after encountering that Flor guy while E already planned to get to the bottom of this. E berated him for his negligence b4 hanging up.
C was already expecting him to be mad. It was not like he wasn't aware of his carelessness. He was just so mad at Br for being blind to the obvious things regarding her and her brother's behavior. To get his mind out of things he decided to get back to his homework after this rude interruption.
Cut to N & Ct's home
Bu was throwing a fit, like he usually does, while the staff were trying to get out of his way. Some emploees even quit after he got too rambunctious. N was at her wits end. Thinking That she shouldnt have told him about the trip. She didnt even tell him the truth for his up coming travel. She told him that he will be in a special show overseas but the kid was not having it. He was sure that his lackey wouldn't be able to get things done the right way.
Few days after the water gun incident, he and his parents put out a statement apologizing for the puplic and the victim and hoping for forgiveness. Ct did most of the talking and answering. As soon as the reporters finally came to the long awaited question if that little girl was in any way connected to the stanton family, both grown ups were unsure what to say. K and J asked the family to keep her Identity a secret until Na was more Comfortable with it. Only Bu was smirking. He could easily make her life a problem by exposing her even more. But b4 he could reveal it to the crowd, N quickly made something up to honor her best friend's wish.
Na and her parents watched everything on tv. J was relieved that her Sister-in-law still kept her word. After they wrapped up the interview, socical media is still devided. Some forgave them and praise their honesty. Others still give them negative comments that they should get the kid out of their country for not onlu his current behaviour but his past pranks as well.
Mi and Le were obviously on the negative site of the debate. To was adamant thay he wont participate on this feud so that he can concentrate on his own problem. His mom's side of the family had invited them to come overseas, so his days are filled with getting all the travel essentials. And those travels normally always get stressful bc of the chaos at home.
Few days after the live broadcast
C brought Na and Mi to the hospital where the boy still was recovering. Na was worried that he felt alone in his state. Mi just came along for the ride. She didnt have anything to do so she joined. His allergic reaction was so bad that he had to stay for a good month to get better. The boy's mom was standing in the room and greeted their 3 Visitors.
The girls chatted with the boy until they finally were allowed to see the kid. The young girls apologized for what happened to him but the boy, Xavier (Xa for short), reassured them that he was just glad to be alive. C and Xa's mom got to know each other. C had to calm her down first but the woman eventually got better while she watched her son talking to his friends.Na asked out of the blue if the Lo or Bu came to visit him. To that question the boy went quiet. His mom scoffed. She told them only the lackey came in, but not the other brat.
Na just rolled her eyes thinking, „Of course he wouldnt.”
After the trio left the building, C invited them to some ice cream. Mi's parents were not able to get her because they had work to do, and Na didn't want to wait for her own to come home alone.They went to a secluded ice parlor to get their frozen treats. To their surprise they met Le and Fa on a table. After Fa called them over, they finally noticed a girl, seemingly the same age as the boys, sitting at their table. Na quickly recognized her from her show. She called out her name in excitement. C covered her mouth b4 anyone would hear her.
While the little girls got acquainted with Mel, C asked his cousin what he was doing here with Fa. Fa explained To him that they met each other on the street and started talking. And b4 they knew it they went inside the little shop. At Mel's side of things she could not help but be charmed by Na and her many questions. The kid had questions about her character role. But her attention was grabbed by a bracelet she wore. After telling her that she is working a jewelry designer, all other things were forgotten and the girls were more interested on her profession.
Lv was finally dropping the question he had for a while. „What happend with you and Br?” As her name fell, so did C's mood. He requested his long time friend not to talk about her and to ask her him self. Lv knew that his previous interest for her subsided after the years. But that C completely avoided her existence alltogether was new, even for him.
Fa sided with C on it as well. The girl started hanging out with him even after politely asking her to leave him alone. He didn't like her that much b4 that either. Especially after rumors went around of them being a secret couple. Not wanting for Mel to worry about it if she ever heard about them, he told her about them and confessed straight out that this wont ever happen. And that he would never trade her for anything in the world.
While Mel knew that he meant all of his promises, she still could shake off the bad feeling knowing that the rumors could spread all over the internet. That happened a few days ago and she still was not feeling like herself. That was also the reason why they went on a walk so that she could get her mind cleared out. Lv understood Fa's dilemma, but Br was not like her usual self either. But C was having none of it and changed the subject. The Ferguson boy had noticed her behavior as well in school but thats the only place he saw her for just a moment. Otherwise he made sure not to interact with her or her sibling.
Na kept asking her many questions, but Mel had to stop her so she could use the Bathroom. As soon as she left the table Mi & Na noticed a table not too far with another group. They were acting suspicious, glancing from time to time while mumbling to each other. Mi counted the ice cream sundaes and noticed that one extra cup was on the table. She hinted at her friend to follow Mel just in case. And good thing she did.
To her disbelieve, her older cousin Br was chatting with Mel at the sinks. Or rather Br rambling her ear off about how she and Fa had such a Good Connection. Na was not happy about the things Br said to her new friend so she came between them. Br was annoyed that she came between them but she just ignored her. Mel & Na listened to her rambling for a bit b4 Na stomped on her foot. The bragging teen screamed out loud. For a sickly girl she sure had some powerful stomps.
As if that wasn't enough, Na enlightened her entitled cousin: „You sure Like to talk big for someone who hasn't any kind of dignity. Mel is my friend, so you better her show some respect in the future, 'cousin'. And stay away from her boyfriend, he doesnt even like you. Cousin C had enough of your nonsense as well. So why dont you stop pestering us?”
Na dragged Mel out of the bathroom and went back to their table. Na explained to the other what happened back there and that's when they decided finish their desserts to finally leave.Only Lv decided to text his dad about if his aunt N knew about his cousin escaping her house arrest. From what he knew was that Br was grounded until Bu finally went to the program.

WWE Night of Champions (2023) - Results
Tumblr media
Well, to be honest, the results of this pay per view weren't my favorite. I don't mean in regards of who won and who lost, but it's how they lost. There were so many cheap finishes that either the writers didn't know what story to tell or the wrestlers called audibles during the matches. This seemed more of like a "hey we have big names on the card" pay per view, and less of a "we have good stories to tell and the following weeks will mean something". The only match that meant something was the tag team championship match, and even then we all knew what would happen and it came down to seeing how it was going to happen. Let's take a look at the matches and see how my perdictions were. Seth "Freakin" Rollins vs. AJ Styles - I was right. This seemed like the match went on too long with not very much going on. There was a lot of story told with injuries, but I think they relied too much on it. The story throughout the whole night seemed to be injury based come to think of it. It was pretty evident that Seth was going to win since the belt was revealed, so at least now what everyone predicted came true. Becky Lynch vs. Trish Stratus – I was wrong. It looks like we'll be seeing more of Trish since she won with the assistance from Zoey Stark. I'll go ahead and say that Lita will come back and team with Becky and defeat Trish and Zoey and Money in the Bank and that will be their redemption and how Trish will be written off. Bianca Belair vs. Asuka - I was right. Damage CTRL wasn't involved, but there seemed to be a lot going weird with this match. The focus of Asuka on Bianca's hair was an ongoing situation, and there were chunks of hair even pulled out. I only see this being an issue if there were kids who thought that was all of her real hair, and getting freaked out over clumps ripped out and left on the mat. Asuka's taked up fingers were noticed, but I thought something had happened to her and she was just wrapping them for safety reasons. There were also times where I felt like this was almost a triple threat match, because the ref was extremely vocal and would interfere in the match to break them up. I don't think I have ever seen a ref get in the middle and break them up unless it was a boxing match or UFC fight. I wasn't a big fan of the ref being a part of it and the match looked like on the fly calls that resulted in botches. The hair situation bothered me and in the end it was a win for Asuka, but it didn't seem well thought out. Rhea Ripley vs. Natalya. I was right. This was just a flat out squash match. Thanks for coming Nattie, hope you enjoyed your mini vacation and travel pay. Cody Rhodes vs. Brock Lesnar - I was wrong. This ending pissed me off out of all the matches tonight. The match itself proved finishers are as usefull as lockups. There were so many crossroads and F5's that it didn't make any difference. The arm being used as a weapon was fine for a hot second, then it turned and it didn't matter anymore. Cody really milked the kimura and trying to grab the rope, it was like he had forgot what was going to happen next so he needed to buy time. The finisher with him going to sleep was weak and a slap in the face to the WWE universe who deserved a better ending. Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn vs. The Bloodline (Roman Reigns and Solo Sikoa) (with Paul Heyman) - I was right. Other than Roman eating two purposeful super kicks from Jimmy and not Solo on accident, this match ended up going the way everyone who was watching had predicted. Smackdown had the beginning of the fallout, the Uso's attempted redemption that backfired came to be and now the end is in the near future. Roman hit his milestone or 1000 days and his faction is slowly going away. Solo is either going to sink or swim as a brute for Roman Reigns, but if he doesn't start doing some mic work he'll get cast to the side. There's no reason for Roman to hold the belts anymore, and as much as I like him I feel like he just might end up dropping them to Brock again when the time comes. Read the full article

Light in the darkness (One)
Pairing: Yandere!C!Technoblade x Bookworm!Enchanter!Female!Reader
Type: Romantic (Technoblade is yandere) Trilogy - part three I. (Previous part) (Next part)
Warnings: swearing, possessivness, yandere, angst, injury, blood, death, threats, sugestive content, silly jokes created by me.
Summary: Technoblade won't give up on Y/N. She belongs to him and only him, if he has to show it, then he will do it.
Author's note: This is the last part, but I had to splited it, because Tumblr said, that post is too long ;-;. Nezt part will might take a while too, I am so sorry for not posting this earlier. Thanks you all for reading, all likes and reblogs ❤. This one is again inspirated by ACOTAR a little bit. Sorry for any mistakes, English isn't my first language.
Words in red colour, are Technoblade'a voices.
Words in blue colour, are Y/N thoughts.
Technoblade stood up, covering Y/N, because Ranboo's sight was locked on her figure. She literally froze at this moment.
"I am so, so sorry..." his voice was breaking.
"What the hell is going on here?!" Piglin hybrid yelled gripping the hilt of his sword.
"Calm down Technoblade. He knows... I... I am sorry, I didn't want to drag him into troubles, I am so sorry." Y/N hugged his arm, to prevent violence actions.
"How?!" He growled loudly.
"Ranboo wanted to borrow supplies, when you were on adventure." She said slowly.
Phil moved closer to Enderboy, to protect him in any case. He was breathing heavy and slight fear was in his eyes.
"They are coming... if you think, that Butcher Army was something, now it's more." He said fast.
"Why did you tell someone?" Y/N asked with panic in her voice.
"Tommy... and Tubbo were devastated, I couldn't... it just slipped..." Ranboo sounded like he was about to cry more.
Phil pated his arm to calm him down, he won't let Technoblade hurt anyone in this room.
"Who is coming?" The Blade cold voice cut the silence.
"Quackity, Sam, Foolish, Eret, Tommy and Tubbo. I was able to sneak out and got there before them, when I was leaving, they were about to end preparations. If they won't capture you and free Y/N, they are going to kill you. But if you survive, they are going to lock you in the prison. That is why Sam is coming too." Enderman hybrid was shaking.
"I... you warned us. I forgive you." Technoblade nodded to him gratefully.
Y/N's stomach twisted, when she heard news. She knew about past history of Dream Smp, so Butcher Army, wasn't new thing. She just didn't want to Technoblade being hurt at all... yes he was rough, kidnapped her, but this soft moments... He was a person, he didn't deserve being killed.
"What we are going to do?" Teenager asked.
Phil's and Technoblade's eyes met, they were already planning soultion.
"You will stay with Y/N inside. You had nothing to do with it." Pigling hybrid stated.
"But how you are going to face them? Foolish is literally god and from Ranboo's news, they aren't going to talk."
"This time, he won't be alone." Philza's dark tone caused them to shiver inside. "We dealt with something bigger than this in past."
"I won't be here watching how you are doing. I can be usefull." Y/N said looking at Technoblade.
He smiled warm and kissed her forehead gently, the cupped face. Ranboo opened his eyes wider, he wasn't expecting that.
"Princess, this fight isn't for you. I am not going to risk. Ranboo is going to take care of you during this whole frace."
Enderman hybrid nodded, they went to brew potions, at least this way they could help. Phil and Technoblade needed to gather equipment. There was no hurry in their movements only definitely and determination. Y/N get lost in her thoughts, what if they started to fight? She didn't want to be cause of fighting. She cared both about Technoblade, Phil and those who will come. Ranboo seeing her worried face, patted a little her shoulder.
"Thank you for letting us now Ranboo, it matters a lot to me." Y/N said looking at him.
"I am sorry for all of this... If I wouldn't..." Sight left his lips.
"It's not your fault."
}*{
Quackity lead the group of people through snow and trees. Sun started to going down, leaving sharp shadows, light slighty started to be orange. They had full netherite, enchanted armor and weapons. Potions hanging from belts, tridents, even bows. Through darkness, small point of light was piercing.
"We are coming closer." Tommy said quietly.
After a few minutes, forest ended and they could finally see cottage. Around were quiet and calm, animals in farm were peacefuly sleeping, but when they get closer, view started to be concern. Technoblade was standing in front of his stairs, around ready, deadly hound. He had netherite equipment too.
"How? How did he know?" Sam whispered.
None answered, they just stopped few meters away from him. His red eyes was locked on them, right hand laid on sword's hilt. Wolfes showed their teeth, but didn't move.
"Funny, history is repeating itself." Quackity said slowly, looking at him.
"Just as that time, we can do it peacefully or I will again choose blood." Technoblade's voice was dark and cold.
"What the fuck man? You kidnapped Y/N! That is beyond all limits!" Tommy yelled, but Sam put hand on his shoulder.
'Blood for the Blood God!' 'Tear out their throats! Rip them to bits!' 'Life is ours, to end!'
"Just give up Techno, maybe last time you were able to beat us, but this time is different. You are alone, we won't make the same mistakes." Big Q said slowly.
"He is not alone."
Philza stepped into their vision. He also had netherite equipment and his face was stern. Wings spread in threat.
"I can't believe Phil, that you support, what Techno did." Tubbo said with disappointing tone.
"Technoblade is my friend and I am with him at good and bad."
"We don't need to fight. Just release Y/N and we can forget about this whole stupid situation." Foolish said, trying to calm them down.
"I don't think, I will listen someone, who is trespassing on my land." Technoblade hissed.
"You two should be put in the prison." Sam's eyes narrowed. "You once blew up the nation, then kidnapping, what will be next?"
"I don't think, we are going anywhere." Phil pulled out sword.
Silence filled the place, sun was low, throwing red like blood light at world. Two groups was looking at each other with concern and focus. None wanted to give up.
"I am so tired of this bullshit. You reign now is over Technoblade!" Quackity screamed and they charged at pair.
Sound of breaking bottles was loud, then wolfes started to howl and attacked them. Sam and Big Q were taking The Blade, Phil was dealing with Foolish and Eret, hound took Tommy and Tubbo. Fight started for good.
}*{
Y/N and Ranboo looked through window. They saw Quackity's group approached and heard their talking. She couldn't stand, that she is the cause of all of this. Her breathing sped up, when Technoblade was fighting with Sam and Big Q. Enderman hybrid was observing with concern Tubbo's and Tommy's struggling.
"We need to do something!" Y/N yelled and stood up.
"Technoblade said, that you not going to be involved in this. Please if we show up, he will kill us, at least me." Ranboo stopped her.
"I can see, that you are worrying about Tommy and Tubbo. We need to do something." She told him, eyes lighted by determination.
Y/N went to cellar and started to search her trident, after few attemps, she found it in hidden chest, then took one of Technoblade's spare capes. It was so cold outside. When she was about to leave, Enderboy sticked to her.
"I am going with you, you are barely prepared."
When they stepped outside, they could saw, that fight was still on, some of Technoblade's wolfs were dead, but some of them still were attacking Tommy and Tubbo.
Y/N threw trident and it landed in the middle, then summoned thunder, taking fighters' attention.
"Enough!"
They all stopped.
"Y/N! Are you all right? They didn't hurt you? How are you feeling?" Foolish started to ask, but Phil was holding him at the reach of sword.
"Ranboo? What are you doing here?" Tommy asked with anger in his voice.
Technoblade kicked away Sam and turned to her. His eyes narrowed, blood was boiling and sight became red.
'They are going to take her away!' 'Why she left the house?' 'Blood for the Blood God!'
"I told you to stay safe." He said slowly.
"I don't want anyone to die here..." She said with voice cracking.
"Go back to the house!"
"No, she isn't going anywhere." Sam got back at his last position.
"I am good, nothing bad happend to me. Technoblade is taking care of me with Phil, we don't need this fight." Y/N said with confidence.
"For the love of DreamXD, they kidnapped you, forced to stay here, and now we see, that even brianwashed you!" Foolish screamed with fear.
Y/N flinched at this words, it wasn't true... they didn't do such thing! But suddenly, realization hit her... why she didn't fight against Technoblade grasp anymore? Why didn't want to escape? Cold shiver went down at her spine.
Piglin hybrid saw Y/N's reaction and flinched inside. None was going to take her away from him. Everyone noticed this scared eyes of her.
"It's all right. Just come to me." Eret said gently and slowly. "We are not going to hurt you."
"Stop fucking confuse her!" Phil hissed, his wing spread warningly.
She hugged herself, suddenly lost and didn't know what to do, everyone started to saying something, but cacophony of voices was too loud. Then groups again started to argue.
"Everyone already know, that you have obssession about Y/N Technoblade! You were fucking torturing me after I was in her house!" Quackity yelled with anger in his eyes.
"Wh-what?" Y/N asked, after regaining some awarness.
"He fucking almost beat me to death, few days after you took care of my cut!"
"Maybe you and Sam should tell everyone how you earned it, huh?" Techno hissed in response.
Argue became fight again, when The Blade charged himself at Quackity with battlecry, it was enough for him, this stupid idiot had to die. Ranboo covered Y/N , because Sam and Foolish went for her, Tubbo and Tommy yelled across the field, chaos was divine. Phil joined Technoblade's attack, he too had enough, Eret crossed his way.
"We need to go, it's too dangerous!" Tommy said and took her hand.
Ranboo was able to push away Eret, but Sam quickly reached for Y/N. "Tommy let's go!"
Young boy pulled confused enchanter with them, Foolish covered Quackity, which had hard time with Technoblade and Phil together.
"Run!" Demigod screamed to his friends, while thunders couple of time hit the ground, cutting them away.
Y/N fell over, because of chaos and fear, her vision went blurr, all her limbs went down at snow, cold brushed over her skin. Someone helped her, it was Quackity, fight turned into deadly chase. Again she was a prey, wolf's howling was loud, Ranboo was helping injured Tubbo, when Tommy was fighting with wolfs. What a madness.
'Blood for the Blood God!' 'Blood for the Blood God!' 'Blood for the Blood God!'
Technoblade was determinated to get Y/N back and punish these, which took her away from him. His sword and axe were thirsty for blood, Phil alinged himself with his friend, then again they charged. Quackity pushed Y/N away, when winged man reached him, fight started very fast, sound steel hitting on steel was ringing in her ears. Phil kicked Quackity, so he lost balance, weapon fell off his hand, when he tripped. Defensless against the angle of death, he could only wait for hits. But they have never come. Phil performed sword stab, but it went through like into butter. He was wild, actually as much as Technoblade. Usually netherite armor could stop a netherite sword, although it could have been tampered. Quiet groan caused him to lift his sight, he wasn't expecting this at all, but view made his blood to freeze.
Sword pierced Y/N' body, in place a little higher than a stomach. Quackity stood behind in shock and disbelief. She gripped the edge, forcing Phil to look at her. Blood stained her fingers and started to drip from fatal wound.
"It's not your fault." She whispered weakly, than pushed herself away and landed on knees.
It seemed, that everything stopped only sun setted down and darkness fell upon the world. Technoblade pushed away everyone, voices went quiet. His pupils widened and he found himself kneeling down.
"Please don't blame Phil, it's not his fault..." Y/N said slowly and quietly.
He nodded looking at injury, they ran out of healing or regeneration potions and he doubt if that would be enough. Totem, only totem could safe her for sure.
"I told you to stay in the basement..." His voice was shaking.
"I am so sorry..."
Technoblade got her closer and put her head on his shoulder. He listened her slow, sharp breathing.
"Everything will be all right." He whispered.
"Liar..." Quiet chuckle left Y/N's lips with some blood, staining his skin and clothes.
Everyone gathered around in silence, Tommy and Tubbo were crying, when Foolish clenched his jaw and fists. Sounds of storm appeard out of nowhere. Ranboo put hand on his mouth, trying to hold back stinging tears.
"I am here, you are not alone." Technoblade said holding her hand.
"I never was."
Eret found himself smiling at this words, he felt that she was talking about all of them, he put hand on Foolish'es shoulder.
"You are my light, please don't go."
"You got this Technoblade. You always did." Y/N said quietly and smiled.
Then, he didn't hear her breathing, hand fell on the snow and eyes closed. The Blade hugged lifeless body, when single tear left his eye.
"Shit..." Quackity whispered.
"What did we do..." Ranboo groaned, Tubbo hugged him.
Piglin hybrid carefuly put Y/N's body on snow and stood up. His hand gripped sword, when he turned to rest. He looked emotionless. Attack was unexpected, Foolish weakly blocked Technoblade's sword by shield, now in his eyes were fury, anger and rage. They didn't even try to calm him down, his hits were inaccurate, after this one hit. Phil moved away, he breathed heavy, he just killed Y/N. She said, that it wasn't his fault, but... he did it anyway.
Technoblade ran away, he reached the forest and disappeard in darkness.
"Phil?" Tommy asked weakly.
"Leave him alone. He need time." Winged man sighed and looked around the battlefield.
For him and The Blade death was something bizzare, something unusual. But here they were. Surrounded by snow, with one beautiful soul gone.
}*{
Before storm there is a calm. Technoblade was calm, when Y/N died in his arms, he released true rage in the forest. His training place didn't even looked like earlier, now it was big mess in the middle of the forest. Voices went feral, he didn't even can understand them, they were screaming in pain, agony, rage and sadness. He didn't want to come back to cottage. No, when Y/N won't be there anymore. So what to do?
When Technoblade didn't show up after three days, Phil started to worry, but didn't know if looking for him was a good idea. He wasn't in good mental state too. In their cottage now, where useless Y/N things and when Snowflake was waiting for her owner, he felt like his heart was about to break, not mentioning Trio Bench sadness and misery.
Technoblade showed up after a week. His steps were slow and careless. He was paled then before and small bruises covered his skin. Phil was staning in bridge, which connected their homes. He looked up at his friend and hugged him tightly, The Blade hugged him back.
"You came back."
"I am lost. I don't know what to do. I for sure not have this."
Winged man sighed, truly Technoblade was the first time in situation like this, even Tommy's betrayal didn't caused so much feelings.
"You need time..." Phil said slowly.
Being with Mumza, taught him a lot and he has know, that time can heal broken or lonely heart. Of course, it won't happen soon, but better late, than never. They entered the house and winged man started to make tea and meal. Technoblade had to be hungry and tired. When he went in, slight Y/N scent again hit his nose, causing his voices to became more quiet.
"What happend with...?" He asked looking away from him.
"Foolish... he built a tomb in his summer home. There were also a funeral. Almost everyone attended."
Technoblade nodded, they ate a meal together, Phil told him about some recent news and rumors, they even had some laughs. When night was coming, piglin hybrid went to bedroom. It... it didn't change at all. Probably Phil cleaned it, Y/N thingh still were there. When he entered, Snowflake showed up, he didn't even notice the basket with her. Little ball of fur rubbed off her small body at his legs, then looked at him with big, hoping eyes.
"Oh little one..." Techno said and picked her up.
Fox snuggled into his chest and curled. His chest tightened. "I miss her too..."
Next day he made the decision. Early in the morning he woke up and went outside. He has never been collecting flowers, but that didn't matter at this time. He chose colorful tulips, even went to the village, to trade, to get all of types. Phil was awake, when he came back.
"You are going to pay a visit to the tomb?" He asked slowly.
"Yes. I hope that Foolish allow me to get in. If not... I don't know." Technoblade sighed.
"Beautiful flowers. She would love them for sure." Phil smiled gently.
"Oh yes. She would..."
In silence, piglin hybrid nodded to his friend and went outside, he thought, that making own way will be better, than using portal. In the Nether, flowers could suffer from heat. He was wearing iron armor and took his axe and sword in any case. Carl was trusted and had diamond horse armor, so he didn't worry about tim.
"Wish you luck." Phil said with small smile.
"I will need it for sure." Technoblade responded and mounted Carl.
Trip wasn't that bad, they travelled alone, didn't meet unexpected visitors or troubles. When they entered the desert, it was harder becasuse of sand. Finally he reachd the Summer Home, big temple was intimidating. Foolish was truly a builder, Technoblade dismounted Carl and slowly stepped into bright halls. Sounds of waved crashing the into coast and dolphins were loud, but peacefuly, almost like paradise. Place where all the problems were gone.
"Technoblade."
Piglin hybrid looked up, Foolish was standing in on of big terraces and watched him with cold gaze. Although he was in desert, cold shiver went down at his spine.
"Foolish."
"What are you doing here?" He asked and his eyes narrowed.
"I... brought flowers..." Techno responded with a little crack in his voice.
Demigod's posture softened a bit. He nodded and went to meet him, after a few moments he was at the same level. Technoblade for real was holding bonuquet of tulips. Without any words he started to leading him into unknown direction. They reached small building made from carved sandstone, enterance was lighted by torches and glowstone.
"It's here." Foolish looked at him and left, without more words.
Technoblade sighed and went in slowly, Carl stayed outside. Tomb was bigger than he expected... made from pure gold and decorated by all gems. He could spot, that some parts were made from netherite. There were a lot of flowers, things and gifts around. He suddenly felt so small with his tulips, but got closer, he touched the surface... it was so cold. Quiet sigh left his lips.
"I am so sorry... I have sworn to protect you, and how it has ended?"
Silence.
He put tulips into small vase, close to the tomb. It was all he could and had strength to do. Maybe the myths and legends called him heartless or emotionless, but now it wouldn't be true. Technoblade felt like the walls were getting closer to him, silence ringing in his ears and cold taking over the body. He left tomb and his whole figure was shaking. He didn't want to meet and memorise Y/N in such place. It was like end of his love, death and fall coming together. Being dead while being alive was very bad, despite fire of revenge burning deep inside of him.
}*{
Days, weeks has passed and seemed, that everything went into fragile peace. How small Y/N's death has become upon the newest events. Red Banquet, Foolish death, but well he was demigod, he was fine after that. Las Nevadas and Quackity gathering power.
Though his birthday party was warm, funny and friendly, Techno still felt, that something was missing. Ah yes... Y/N. Long time has passed, but he would never forget. Now he wasn't seek as much revenge, but still this desire was in him. Phil said, that despite all this happenings, Smp was calm. He liked it too. Really her death caused him to be tired and hesitant.
That's why, he didn't visit Dream short after reciving the letter from Quackity. They were working together versus Eggpire and this stupid Egg, but still cold remind between them. Not mentioning Butcher Army or making government by Las Nevadas owner. Well Snowchester was dudes being dudes, so Technoblade didn't have much problem with it. And yes... he noticed that Ranboo spent a lot of time here, but he couldn't blame him for this. Everyone wanted to be happy. Enderman hybrid deserved it all.
Y/N's death changed him a lot. He started to notice some things, that he couldn't before. People always wanted to be safe, feel being safe. Taking this, because of some selfish reasons caused him to hesitate now.
Well, if he felt tired or lazy, then Wilbur's revival shook him to core. Technoblade remember, when he came back from his training and spotted Phil and Ranboo talking quietly, then by his surprise was new bed and their hesitated eyes. He thought, that someone new is moving on to tundra. How wrong was he...
"Technoblade!" A little too happy, too sick, too loud voice said his name.
Piglin hybrid would always recognize it. Even after centuries. He turned only to see Wilbur, dressed the same as in La' Manburg first blow up, but with white strand in his hair, bandage at arm and looks little older. He froze. All his memorises came back, not only with him, but even with sweet Ghostbur.
"Oh come on you look like, you just saw Ghost." Wilbur joked and smirked.
"Well, I feel like that..." Technoblade admitted.
"I am alive Techno! Dream revived me!" Wilbur grabbed his shoulders ad screamed with voice full of happiness and sickness.
"Really... that's wonderful." Piglin hybrid smiled a bit.
"I can start from the begining! Do something more! I am like newborn!" Wilbur was rambling about his future plans.
"What about Ghostbur?"
Ranboo shook his head with sadness. Technoblade sighed. That was really unexpectable. He listened to Wilbur, they talked a little bit, Ranboo came back to Snowchester and Phil made supper. After all of this The Blade was sitting outside looking at stars. Phil joined him. There were comfortable silence and peace outside.
"I know what are you thinking." Winged man said after a while.
"What do you mean?"
Quiet chuckle left Philza's lips. "I know you long enough Techno. You didn't belive in Tommy's revival, but now we have clear proof. If somone that long dead as Wilbur can be back..."
"It means, that with Y/N shouldn't be problems right?" Piglin hybrid whispered.
Their eyes met.
"Are you sure, you want to do this? Wilbur said, that he spent about thirteen years in his limbo. What if Y/N will has the same?"
"I... I think it's worthy. For once someone usefull will be revived." Technoblade joked slighty.
"But how did we do this?" Philza concerned.
"Dream's own me favour and I think, that it's time to bring Quackity down."
Winged man smiled, it seemed like Technoblade had a plan.
}*{
Sam reached Las Nevadas and immediately went to meet Quackity, he found him in the roof of casino, standing there with wings spread and gambling tokens.
"Well?"
"I can't believe, that Technoblade fall for this trap so easy." Sam said slowly.
"So he went to visit Dream and now he is inside Pandora's Vault?" Quackity asked looking at him.
Warden nodded and looked back.
"That's wonderful! I don't care, if he was that stupid or had too much ego. Most important, he is inside and he won't leave. Forever." Big Q smiled madly and spread his arms. "What a lovely day we have! Tonight we celebrate."
"Aren't you afraid of Phil? He for sure will notice and will search for Technoblade." Sam noticed carefuly.
"I respect Phil, but he can't do nothing without Techno and he is depressed. First killing Wilbur, then Y/N... He won't get up after this."
"Well..."
"Listen, you and Dream said, that none escape Pandora's Vault. I trust this. He is there for half year, I am beating shit out of him, people were visiting him, but he still is there." Quackity said darkly.
"What if someone will know... they won't let it go just like that." Sam didn't give up.
"They won't know anything. Even if some miracle will happen, they still do nothing, because Las Nevadas is power, understand?"
Warden nodded, Big Q came closer and put a hand on his shoulder.
"Relax for a while Sam. Today we won a war. Nothing can threat us."
They both smiled and went down. In casino lights were bright and music was playing, drinks were already made on bar.
}*{
Heat was nice, but Guardian's aura, which were enlanced them was annoying. Technoblade looked at Dream. This was his 4th day and masked man was still writing plans about the prison. As Quackity promised he had his free days from tortures.
"So, you know that plans won't help, when we are inside right?" Dream said looking at him.
"I know."
"And we are not going outside? I have tried all possibilities."
Technoblade looked at him, their eyes met for a while. He stood up, Dream did the same.
"You called me a favour and I will release you from here...
"But you won't help further. I know."
"That is another case. I can help you, but you will have to do something for me." Technoblade stated.
Dream rose his left eyebrow with curosity. What the great Technoblade could possibly want from him?
"I am listening." He nodded carefuly.
"I know, that you can revive people. I saw Wilbur." Piglin hybrid started slowly.
"So you want me to revive someone? Who?"
"Y/N."
Masked man blinked few times.
"How...? Wasn't she nice enchanter helping everyone with enchanting and potions occasionaly?" Dream was surprised.
"Yes, but there was an incident." Technoblade sighed, didn't want to talk about it clearly. "Listen, if you do this, I will help you outside the prison, I will help you take revenge on Quackity and Sam, because she is dead mostly, because of them. I want them dead, I want their blood on my hands."
His voice was dark and cold, in eyes was dangerous gaze. Dream looked at him and he could say, that Technoblade was desperate.
"Why... why you want her alive so bad?" Masked man finally asked. It was strange that The Blade have cared about someone so much except Phil.
"It's not your buisness Dream."
"Really?" He asked crossing his arms. "I would want to know, what I am getting into, before doing anything."
"She got killed for no reason, that's all you need to know."
"Where is her body?"
"In Foolish Summer Home, it's in the desert."
Dream sighed. "So we will have to go there. I need to revive her near the body."
Technoblade nodded. "When you will end writing?"
"Probably tomorrow, why?"
"Tomorrow I am leaving." He said calmly.
Dream nodded, but didn't comment it at all. He wasn't going to question his 'roommate' doings or words, but he was curious about it.
Next day masked man gave all his plans and books about prison to Technoblade.
"So we have a deal? I am going to break you out from there, because of favour, but you are going to revive Y/N, because I will help you after the prison and help you make revenge on Quackity and Sam."
"Yes, we have."
They shoke their hands, while their eyes met. None of them was lying for sure, the price was too high to lose. Technoblade smirked and saluted playfuly to Dream, which rose his both eyebrows, then disappeard just like that and prison alarms went wild. The clock started to chimming.
}*{
First, everything was in chaos, Sam and Quackity rushed to prison, then main cell, scared that they both escaped, but seeing only Dream made them confused. He stated, that he didn't know what just happend, so they let him be. Now was the time, to search for Technoblade, but Dream for sure will has hard time later.
Meanwhile, he appeard in Syndicate room, Phil was standing right near the pearl static chamber.
"And? Are you all right? Something happend?"
"I'm good, dear Square God, finally free from Guardian's aura." Technoblade sighed and smiled slighty.
"You got everything?"
Piglin hybrid nodded and pulled out plans and papers from pocket.
"And Dream agreed?"
"He actualy didn't has other options."
Phil smiled in response. "Let's get started."
With prison plans and look from inside, they had easier job and more options. The main case was actually break inside, they could navigate and reached the main cell, Sam and Quackity weren't obstacles, Techno could take them both at once. His fury was limitless now.

I've been considering starting a weekly fancomic for a personal Homestuck AU ever since I began keeping up with your Crow AU. If you don't mind me asking, how do you keep up a consistent schedule with it? Do you mind sharing tips? Thank you for reading this either way :>
I'm not sure if i have the best methods but i'll share what works for me
1. You need to have word document with a rogh timeline of the events from start to finish. you need to know how it ends from the begining and how they get there. It can be really really vage, but it has to be there. it can go like
.They start the game, the trolls bother them .both games go to hell .scratch .trip, develop relationships .new set of kids/ teen drama .old kids they get there .to hell again .John retcoms everything .new timeline .they win
and that's homestuck simplified, Those are your Acts you will know where you're going and if you need to change something earlier. Everything will be constantly up to change of course, but you will be going from point A to point Z more easily. From there you go to every point in that list and create a word document for all of them, i have then in diferent folders to have every act separated and in order. A folder for the Doc for every Act, and in each one make more lists like that one telling what happens , for example "They start the game, the trolls bother them"=
.john needs to get his game .introduce Rose .introduce the trolls on pester chats .John gets the game .introduce Dave .etc
and those are your chapters Now you can now the extent of what you want to do and if it makes any sence
Another advice i can give you it's to Hint to anything important, thats a rule of comedy actually, the comediant usually closes the show with someting related to the first things they said. That works for everything, and makes people go "oh the thing! the meaningless thing they said earlier, it was a clue all along!" interconect it like a web and that web will stop the story from falling
Homestuck it's so ridiculously interconected that you loose track of the stuff, objects that repeat that have no way to be where they got to be, songs and people and events that are too similar to not be conected but nobody adresses, things like that make it feel like you're dealing with a universe and not just a line of events
Yet another thing it's something i'm still trying to asimilate, and it's that less it's more, sometimes things don't need to be said, and expresion, a gesture, a flinch can sumarize them. backgrounds can be reduced, ideas can be conveyed.
something that i always have in mind when writing the dialogs and sketching the scenes it's
"i have an idea, what's the easyes way for someone to get the idea, to get the feelings i want to transmit from the idea"
that will save you time and work and could prevent you from getting stuck with a proyect to big to handle
I hope those tips are usefull! And good luck with your AU

Can I have headcanons for the brothers with an Mc who switches languages whenever they’re angry or arguing with someone?
I live in a Asian-Hispanic household and the amount of times I’ve switched languages whenever I’m arguing with my family is uncountable.
I am im this ask and I don't like it lololololol
I am fluent in two lenguages and know many words of other lenguages, my communication is a MESS, I am speaking portuguese but then suddenly english comes out and I say sorry for that in korean, then because my brother likes to tease me with japanese terms I end up answering it back in japanese, it's m e s s y.
I'll make this into...
.
Switching Leguages As a Bi/Multilingual ft. The Seven Demon Brothers
Warning: Uncensored Swearing
.
Lucifer
That shitty smile of his, those disgusting eyebrows that raise up as he pointedly looks at you, his entire fucking existence as he teases you for fubbling one word in your sentence with another lenguage.
It's not easy knowing more than one lenguage, you're basically a newborn who just learned to talk sometimes and Lucifer is having a great fucking time with it.
Thankfully when he has better things to do than help you dig your own grave, he let's any fubbling go unnoticed, specially if you're arguing, at those moments he may, in fact, switch lenguages entirely to match yours, which would be a pretty amusing sight if not for the fact that the two of you arguing is one of the most scary things to ever witness in life-
Speak in another lenguage while he's tired and you will make him purposefully say things like 'stop fooling around' in the same lenguage, it's pretty adorable 🤭
.
Mammon
He knows quite a few lenguages himself (it's usefull for scammig people) so yes he is going to tease you about it.
And then he will proceed to fubble his own words with another lenguage right after.
Seriously have pity on this man because everytime you speak one single word in another lenguage that he also knows his brain will automatically change into that lenguage and now he has no idea what the fuck he's even trying to say.
He finds it adorable if you become a lenguage switching mess when happy or excited, but you bet he's terrified out of his damn life if you do so when angry, like seriously, he is very close to shitting his pants.
.
Leviathan
Hoh boy he had so many mixed feelings the first time you spoke in another lenguage, his brain immediatelly shut down and he refused to accept that you could speak in a lenguage he did not understand and it was so cool he was so jealous and terrified out of his mind that if you got any cooler than this you would definetelly leave him at some point because compared to you he was less than nothing-
He secretly tries learning said lenguage so he could understand some of your mumbles, the curses under your breath and the fubbles here and there with certain words.
You know when a kid is learning new words at school and they come home and say said word to their parents or to someone else like 'I learned how to say this!' with so much pride and confidence? That's Levi to you at any given oportunity.
Also terrified when you switch lenguages while angry.
.
Satan
He will outlenguage you.
You know when you are trying to remember one word in a lenguage but you can only remember it in another lenguage so you end up saying it in that another lenguage and people around you look at you weirdly? Well, with Satan that doesn't last for long because now he is speaking in that lenguage and he uses such an unnecessary ammount of ☆°.•fancy•.°☆ words that you can't understand shit that he's saying even though you are most likelly fluent in said lenguage.
I can't blame you if you choose to kick him where the sun doesn't shine because although I know how much it hurts he kind of was asking for it-
And oh b o y anyone would rather be dead than deal with both you and Satan arguing in another lenguage.
Expect to hear Satan say 'meow' in like, 100 different lenguages at some point.
.
Asmodeus
Okay but if there is one thing that is hot as fuck is Asmo dirty talking in different lenguages, he sure has one hell of a flexible tongue.
Now that that is out there, of course he gets excited to hear you switch lenguages, and of course he will start speaking some unholy things in said lenguage most likelly right into your ear when you least expect it like the first thing he tells you in the morning at the table while you're eating breakfast.
And sometimes it's not even just to you, sometimes he will just say it out loud and everyone is suddenly choking.
Don't expect him to be anything other than extremelly attracted to you the moment you switch lenguages while angry unless it's actually something serious.
.
Beelzebub
You have gained +10 points of respect from Beelzebub
This man is a big baby but his twin is Belphegor so you can't seriously expect him to not be at least a bit of a tease, so he will definetelly be amused by your lenguage rollercoaster and he will definetelly point them out from time to time.
You could say there is no way you would get angry at this baby but he definetelly needs some scolding sometimes and he will be absolutelly unsettled by any lenguage switch you do while at it.
Yes you guys will manage to spend at least a full minute saying the same word to each other in another lenguage because neither of you are really sure what is the correct pronunciation
.
Belphegor
Speak one word in another lenguage on accident while around this cow and it will be your nickname for the rest of the week.
The more words you switch within said week the longer and the more bizarre the nickname becomes as he puts all said words together into a single one. He even mimics your accent.
He's definetelly too lazy to keep up with your rambling in a whole different lenguage while angry, and though he understands and pays attention he would definetelly rather not have to deal with switching lenguages.
Also you know those very offensive swear words every lenguage has? He definetelly uses them on Lucifer.

Do you gave any advice for a still (kinda new) artist?
that is... a loaded question...
work smart not hard is my way to approach art though. and i would have loved if someone would have drilled that into me when i was younger? like... i still strugglewith that. but... it connects to the questions: what do i want to tell? and how can i show it?
defining this is a huge help to me. because some things need a bg to tell the story better. in other moments i don't need it because what i try to say is already told with just a pose or an object.
a bit rough and unperfect lineart is something most people don't look at. a bit a crooked nose or uneaven eyes, in general minor mistakes or crookedness in your art is something people usualy don't tend to see or point out because people look ant the entire picture and composition. (oh... -uncaps red marker- all my mistakes you guys ignore)
so... take shortcuts to achive what you want to tell. if you want to take them of course. don't push yourself because you think you have to. you don't know how something looks you look it up. if there is a free (emphasis on free) pattern use that. or learn how to make brushes for braids and pattern to have an easiertime.
the key for working smart for art are refrences. and to not shy away form them. there are usefull 3D tools in the web for free. you can use fotos to look how angles look like, you can take pictures of yourself.
there is this idea of art having to be hard and difficult in order to be worth something. which is just a stupid point of view. if you use CSP and have these 3D dolls available, use them. there is a reason they are there. use google sketch up as help for environment. if photos don't do it for you. there are many 3D design tools that help visualize what you would like to draw. and there are even artifical drawing rendering tool that can help you with environment.
to struggle through art and forcing yourself through something unpleasant will hurt you mentally on the long run. it kills the joy in the process and at the end can lead to burnouts or just dropping the hobby. (there is a slight difference if it is your job but there are methodes for these scenarios too) so work smart. us the tools that are here to help you visualizing what you want to show us. uhm... finding ref is relative easy but in case you would like to see what i use
adorastock: for posese
for artifical enviorment: this one got really popular a while back. its als just fun to play with :D
animal head references: sould my sould to this for obvious reasons!
manekin for shadows on the face: you can also just use it for head angles :D!
so... i think i talked to much ;;; sorry for the long post!
i couldn't find any art on your blog so i can't give you direct feedback. but you are a talented writer, i like how you portray izumi!
