ME, THIS MORNING BEFORE LEAVING FOR WORK: Hey Big, there’s some coffee left in the pot - you want it?
BIG: You betcha.
ME: You’re gonna control yourself this time, right?
BIG: You betcha.
ME: Only have a little bit, okay? You remember what happened last time.
BIG: You betcha.
ME: *filling his designated cup* This has bad news written all over it.
BIG: You betcha.
*ten minutes later*
BIG: I JUST CREATED THE PERFECT WEAPON
ME: You just...what...?
*something whizzes past my head*
ME: What was that?
*a second projectile flies past my face and imbeds itself into the wall by the refrigerator*
BIG: *maniacal laughter*
ME: WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?!
*third unidentified flying object hits the wall and sticks there*
BIG: I LOVE COFFEE IT MAKES YOU AN EVIL GENIUS
ME:
ME:
ME: Is that a Nerf dart
BIG: *cackling like a maniac*
ME: *hears Nerf gun being cocked*
*PSHOOM*
*THUD*
ME: WHAT DID YOU DO?!?!
BIG: I STUCK A THUMBTACK IN THE END OF A NERF DART!!
ME: Holy shit I forbid this. How much ammo do you have?
BIG: I MADE LIKE TWENTY OF THEM THIS IS GREAT THEY STICK IN EVERYTHING GOD I LOVE COFFEE IT’S THE BEST STUFF IN THE WORLD
ME: *hears gun being cocked again*
ME: DO NOT SHOOT ME WITH THAT!! Where’d you get the thumbtacks?
BIG: THEY’RE YOURS I GOT THEM FROM YOUR DRAWER WHERE’S THE GLUE I CAN MAKE THIS SO MUCH BETTER -
ME: *ducks as potentially lethal projectile zips past my head* I want those back, do NOT get any more, and if you shoot ANYTHING other than the cardboard box in the livingroom I’m not going to let you have coffee ever again -
BIG: BUT MOM IT ACTIVATES THE PREFRONTAL CORTEX AND DIRECTLY AFFECTS JUDGEMENT, IMPULSE CONTROL, AGRESSION MANAGEMENT, SELF REGULATION, PLANNING, AND SOCIAL SKILLS
ME: Great, you’ve become a combination of Doctor Evil and Megamind. So what’s your brother’s excuse then?
BIG: HE’S JUST LIKE THAT
*PSHHHINNNNNGG*
ME: STOP!!!
BIG: *evil laughter diminishing in volume as he runs back to his room to reload*
ME:
ME:
ME: Yeah okay I’m gonna go to work, there’s no way this could possibly go wrong.

I love how MXTX's first two books do not take long to show you what weirdos the main characters are. Shen Yuan was waiting his whole life to die and get transmigrated and judges other (fictional) characters for reacting to transmigration poorly. Wei Wuxian wakes up in the body of a deranged lunatic and he disguises himself by acting like a deranged lunatic and does not stop for the rest of the book
Xie Lian is a total weirdo too he's just better at hiding it

Honestly, the most genuine advice I can give to other traumatized queer people who were traumatized by other queer people is that you need to internalize the fact that queer people who share an identity with your abuser(s) are not your abuser(s).
You cannot project your trauma onto others in that way. It is not fair to you and it is not fair to them. I understand. It's a fear response. It's PTSD. It's trauma. But you cannot let it control the way you view other queer people who are not your abuser(s) because they are not your abuser(s).
Queer people are just that - people. We can hurt each other. We can traumatize each other. We can do horrific things to each other just like any other human being can. But you cannot fall into the mind trap of blanketing your trauma around entire identities. The problem with your abuser(s) is that they abused you, not that they were a particular kind of queer.

When you really think about it, Daniel Molloy being a vampire is objectively terrifying. This is a guy who, as a mortal:
- Followed a stranger to a second location in peak serial killer era California.
- Was down to fuck in a coffin.
- Was down for fangs in his neck.
- Consistently interviewed dangerous or powerful people and was antagonistic to them.
- Literally never stopped when on the hunt for a story to the point it destroyed his personal life.
- Got on a plane in the middle of a pandemic with a degenerative disease because the guy he barely remembers following to some place on Divisadero, who he knows is an immortal killing machine, is offering Daniel his story and this also means Daniel could get some clarity on his fucked up memory.
- Has a big fucking mouth. He will just say fucking anything regardless of it being inappropriate.
- Has a fantastic bullshit radar.
- Beat a professional gaslighter at 3D chess.
...and then said powerful 514yo gaslighter gives this man litres of his, essentially, untouched blood and makes him his fledgling? Like...INSANE.
Daniel is, no doubt, EXTREMELY powerful and with a personality type that will probably make him a good vampire. Absolutely terrifying...and hot. God I hope he's still "sun challenged."

Technically a Cult
So! Danny has been hearing through the Grapevine that a large Cult has been Summoning all the biggest Magical Creature's for some reason. Demon Lord's, Fae Kings, even a few Gods. Clockwork was summoned a little while ago, and so was Fright Knight and Pandora
And he has been patiently waiting his turn for a while. Apparently everyone they summon has gotten a really good deal from them, all in return for a few favors, sometimes a promise to not go to a specific place.
Danny really wants to strike a deal with them. He wants to ask them for a favor so he can get out of work for a few weeks, he's been planning on taking a vacation with Sam and Tuck, but the Eyeballs are being annoyingly resistant.
He feels the familiar pull of Summoning, and realizes that it's time. Awesome, time to meet this mysterious Cult!
...
Why is the JLA standing in from of him?

those three dilfs from mamma mia are so lucky they're in a romantic comedy and are only faced with undetermined paternity hijinks when they accept a mysterious out-of-the-blue invitation to an island and don't end up in some scary horror movie plot like the menu or the most dangerous game or scooby-doo 2002

Tl;Dr - I stopped playing the game but I like the characters and I wanna draw them but idk if the wiki I use is up to date for cards
Do u know any wikis that have up to date cards for all the twst characters-
Asking specifically bc of Malleus cause I can't tell anymore if he has any more new cards bc HE DOESN'T EVEN HAVE A 100 DISNEY ANIVERSARY CARD IN THE WIKI I USE 😭
Like compared to everyone else in Disanomia, he has 12 cards (in the wiki I use) and then Lilia has 17 cards 💀
Cause I think Malleus has a Bean's Day card as well, but that could just be a fanmade one, I don't have JP twst nor ENG twst anymore so I can't confirm it myself urhghrhevw 🫠
Malleus doesn't have a Beans Day card, so that would've been fanmade! and the 100 anniversary cards are actually the new round of birthday cards, so most of the characters don't have 'em yet -- Malleus should be getting his in a couple of days, when his birthday event starts! oh god my keeeeeys
I think the wiki.gg stays pretty up to date? it looks to me like they have everything that's currently up through JP, at least. :O I did go through and do a quick count just because I couldn't believe Malleus only had 12 cards, but. he really does have the least...defeated only by Silver with 13...astonishing. we need his gargoyle club wear immediately.
