General Decrease in Social Media Interaction, Not Just Reblog to Like Ratios
I see posts about reblog to like ratio all the time, and I 100% agree that the reblog to like ratio on Tumblr has significantly decreased over the decade...
But I feel like it really isn't just Tumblr- it's social media in general. The same problem is on DeviantART with view to favorite to comment ratios... with comments equating to a reblog (or "interaction")
Take popular DA artist Griffsnuff. Sampling 20 random images from 2023, 2015, and 2010 and noting their averaged comment count:
(rounded up) 2010: 208 2015: 44 (78% decrease from 2010) 2023: 11 (75% decrease from 2015, 94% decrease from 2010)
Taking someone less popular but who recalls an avid community growing up- me:
2010: 3 2015: 0.75 (75% decrease from 2010) 2023: 0.7 (90% decrease from 2015, 76% decrease from 2010)
These are only two examples, but between a super popular DA artist and a nobody, there's a pretty consistent 75%-78% drop in interaction rate between 2010 and 2015, with another sharp decrease 7 years after that.
With Tumblr's reblog to like ratio also sharply dropping, it's possible the same can be said for other social sites, that "passive" interaction (liking/thumbs up/hearting) has overtaken "active" interaction (commenting/sharing/reblogging). An exception is possibly TikTok with its remixing feature which works, in a way, as a transformative response to the original content, and is baked into the app's culture... but I don't know what remix-to-like ratio it has, and TikTok doesn't exactly have videos from 2010 to reference for a then-and-now comparison.
Regardless, this kind of insane decrease in active interaction warrants more serious study from academics as a social phenomenom, to assess how legitimate it is and hypothesize the reasons (the algorithm? culture? attention span? over stimulation? marketing?) Because an artist like griffsnuff who is more popular than ever at 98k watchers and 13M views having a 94% decrease in comment rates after 13 years sounds... fake. Shouldn't interaction be going up...?
If someone at 98k can't even keep consistent interaction how does anyone with a smaller audience expect to get any? (No wonder why even at 870 followers on Tumblr, 65 on DA, and 95 on Twitter I see squat come from it)

YOUR BIGGEST FAN — GETO SUGURU
Tumblr media
✧・. on vacation with your family, you discover that your biggest fan may not be a mystery after fall.
( TW ) f!reader. camgirl!reader. stepbrother!Geto (in a plot device way, no nii-chan and stuff.) unprotected sex. cream pie. phone sex. squirting. fingering. mutual masturbation. cunnilingus. deception. mentions of bullying. misunderstandings. hurt/comfort. explicit content.  
word count - > 6.6k
authors note. can you see I wasn’t creative with the username? I have a love-hate relationship with this fic because I feel like it goes from 0 to 100 real quick lmfao. This is heavily inspired by the book Eyes on Me! 
Tumblr media
“I bet you look handsome.” You smile at the black screen with the default profile picture floating in the middle. 
‘Nah.’ User @Sssman72  types into the chat the takes up the left half of your computer. 
“Stop! Don’t say think bad things about yourself,” You laugh, making sure your tits jiggle in the flimsy red lingerie you're wearing. “I know your handsome baby.” You reassure your favorite client. The man who alone gives you 50% of your income. He’s the one who bought you this pretty lingerie set you're wearing.  
‘You look tired babydoll...how was today?’ He types. 
“I’m fine, I promise, just had a long day, was on a few other private chats with some other customers the entire day.” You confess. In all honesty after this call you were planning to pass out and try to get a few hours of sleep before you had to fly out to your family's vacation home. Today on your live stream, you told your followers you were going on vacation for the next two weeks and wouldn't be online. You didn't plan to get on a call with @Sssman72 but he had texted you as you were getting ready to go to bed that he had a bad day and wanted to see you. Before you had a chance to protest, he spent you 500 and said it would only be 30 minutes. You gave in because first he was your biggest supporter and you wanted to be there for him in some way with all the money and gifts, he sends you and second, you didn’t mind chatting with him, you thought he was the sweetest and you struck lucky the day he joined one of your lives.  
‘I’ll let you go then, I want you to get some rest before your flight, sorry for keeping you up beautiful just needed to vent about my ass job.’ 
“I’m always here for you handsome, I'll make sure to send you those pictures you requested through the week.” 
‘Make sure you enjoy your break babydoll, don’t gotta worry about me. Goodnight.’ 
You say your goodbyes and end up falling asleep in the lingerie bought you as soon as you shut your laptop. 
— 
“How’s college y/n?” Your stepfather asks when you slide into the back seat of the car. Your mother fitting the last of your luggage into the trunk.  
“it’s fine, some of my classes are difficult but nothing I can't manage.” You answer as you buckle in. 
“Oh yeah? Thats good. You mom tells me you started a job a few months ago, how's that working out for you?”  
You tense under the small blanket you’ve thrown over yourself. 
“u-uhm yeah its good—yeah it’s been fun.” 
“I’m sorry sweetheart, I don't remember what you mother told me you did again.” He chuckles. 
“Uhm—I'm a bartender, m-my friend works there and got me a position.” You tell him the lie you've rehearsed hundreds of times. You start to sweat under the blanket. Did he buy it? What if he and your mom found out what you did? Are they planning to ambush you when you get to the house? They're going to make you drop out and chain you up in the basement when they find out. You throw the blanket off, suddenly too hot and alert. Guess that nap you were planning on taking during the drive wasn’t happening. 
“Oh, that’s fun sweetheart, I remember I bartended awhile when I was in college, got fired for stealing the alcohol though,” He laughs at the memory before turning to look at you. “You wouldn’t do that though, you’re a good girl.” 
You nod, thankful that your mom decided now to take your stepdad's attention away and get in the car. 
“Alrighty were good to!” She cheers. Your stepdad turns back around in his seat before starting the car. 
“Finally, thought we were going to get a fine parked here another minute.” 
“Oh, shut up! Y/n are you excited to go back to the vacation house? You haven’t been in years!” You mom asks as you guys pull out of the airport.  
“Yeah, I can’t wait to, I missed the hiking trails and the waterfalls. None of that in the big city.” You answer truthfully. You did miss the silence of the secluded house you vacationed at every summer since your mom married your stepdad. It was the company that you hated. As if your mom heard your thought, she says something that makes your heart drop. 
“Suguru feels the same way, we didn't even have to blackmail him to come! That boy...” 
“Suguru is coming?” You scream.  
“Coming? Sweetie, he’s already arrived this morning. I’m so excited were all together as a family again.” 
“Are you fucking serious mom? Turn the car around and bring me back to the airport!” You screech. You were not going to spend the next week with your bully of a stepbrother.  
“Y/n!” You mom gasps. 
“Sweetheart, he’s changed.” Your stepdad tells you as if that's going to make it better. 
“That’s what he wants you to think! He’s the worst human being on planet earth, please don’t make me spend the next few weeks with him, please mom,” you lean over the consul. “Please dad.” You pout at your stepfather. You know he gets weak whenever you call him dad. 
“Sweetheart...” 
“No! You aren’t sweet talking your way out of this, he’s changed. He isn't the same teenager with a chip on his shoulder, he’s matured. He even told me the reason he’s coming is to apologize and bond with you y/n.” 
“He’s lying mom! He doesn't care about me; I wouldn't be surprised if he told you that just so he could drown me in the lake. You guys own the land so nobody would find my body!” You start to tear up. You were going to jump out of the car if your parents didn't turn back around. Your stepbrother was your biggest tormentor since the day you met him. From picking on you at home to getting the girls to bully you at school. He made your life hell for four years. The day you left for college you screamed how much you hated him and told your parents that the four of you would only be in the same room again when you lay in a casket. 
“Oh, don’t cry sweetheart. Your mother is right, he’s changed, I wouldn’t have allowed him around you if he hadn’t. Give us a week and if you want to leave, I promise I'll drive you back to the airport and you’ll never have to see him again, please?” 
“No.” You cross your arms and look out the window despite knowing that they’ve won. You can’t jump out of the car now that you are on the highway, and you didn’t bring your own car to drive yourself back to the airport. 
“We’ll give you the master suite, the whole attic floor to yourself.” They bargain. You act like you’re thinking of accepting the offer. With the master suite taking up the entire third floor you could lock yourself up there and ignore Suguru. You could also film videos and even go live because the room is soundproof. You perk up at that. You could just spend your vacation on stream and chatting with @Sssman72. He’s somehow always free for you and told you that if you get bored you could call him. He’ll make up for your stepbrother’s awful behavior. 
“Fine, I’ll take the master suite.” 
— 
“Okay that's the last of your luggage, we’ll be having dinner in a few hours on the dock.” 
“Kay, thanks.”  You watch your stepdad shut the door. Once he does you release the tension in your shoulders. You lock the door before running to throw yourself onto the huge king bed. You sink down. You didn’t see Suguru when you arrived, you mom told you he was probably in town. You hope he stayed in town for the next two weeks.  
After laying it bed thinking about how much you hate Suguru with a passion you pull out your phone and open the porn app. You click on messages and open your chat with @Sssman72. 
‘Hey...I know I told you I was on vacation but I already wanna go home. You don't have to answer lol.’ You send. He immediately starts typing.  
‘Of course, I'll answer you babydoll. What’s wrong?’  Your face heats at the pet names. You wish you knew what he looked like, all he told you about himself was that he was in his twenties and worked for his father's company. You want to know more, what he looks like, what he sounds like. If the messages he sends make you sweat, you wonder what’ll happen if he spoke to them to you. In your head he’s a handsome bachelor who just so happened to find you and deem you worthy of his time and money but hell, he could be lying. He could be some old rich man in his eighties who likes young girls like all the rest of your viewers. The romantic part of you ignores that and is convinced he is who he says he is and that one day you’re going to meet in person and fall in and have a bunch of his babies. 
‘You know that stepbrother I told you about?’ 
“Mm, that asshole who bullied you?’ 
‘Yep, that asshole. Anyways I bet you won't guess who's here on vacation with me?’ 
‘Are you serious?’ 
‘Dead serious...my parents didn’t tell me until I was already trapped and now, I have to spend my vacation away with a man who hates me for no reason.’ 
‘Wow that’s crazy lol. Did your parents tell you why he chose to vacation with you if he doesn’t like you?’ 
‘Apparently he’s here to make amends...he’s probably here to kill me so he gets all the inheritance.’ 
‘Well, what if he’s really there to make amends baby?’ 
‘You should've heard the groan I just let out. I can’t believe you’re on his side babe. When I tell you that he too evil for that I mean it.’ 
‘Hey, you know I'm always on your side babydoll, I'm just giving you a man’s perspective on it. Maybe he realized he’s fucked up and he feels back so he wants to apologize for all the wrong he caused you’ 
‘Yea well from a women's perspective he’s an asshole who doesn’t care about anyone else but himself!’ 
‘Don’t say the baby...hypothetically what would he have to do to get you to forgive him?’ 
‘Hypothetically he's going to have to get on his knees and beg for my forgiveness every time he sees me until I deem, he's forgiven. And he’s also gonna have to send every dollar in his bank account to me AND be my slave for the rest of his life...hypothetically.’ 
‘Lol you never know babydoll, he just might be willing to do anything for your forgiveness. I know I would.’ 
‘That’s because you’re perfect and care about my feelings...now I'm gonna go get some sleep before having to eat with the devil. Pray he doesn’t poison me and I survive the night.’ 
— 
You sit at the dinning room table waiting for Suguru. Of course, he’s late, he doesn’t care about anyone's time but his. You say so to your parents. 
“Y/n stop being so harsh and give him a chance please.” You roll your eyes and go back to scrolling on social media.  
“Sorry I'm late.” You jump at the deep voice before whipping your head to the left where your stepbrother stands looking so...so different. 
“Suguru! No need to apologize! Come sit.” Your mother points to the empty seat opposite you. Suguru glances at you and smiles before walking to the seat. You gasp. You don’t think you’ve ever seen him smile at you or anyone else. Actually, you know he hasn’t smiled at anyone, he was know for being so stoic. You watch intensely as he pulls out the chair and sits. He looks like a different man, his hair is long, down past his shoulders, the black shirt he's wearing stretches around a huge chest. He looks like he spends half his day in the gym. And those eyes—those eyes that always had heavy eyebags and glared at everyone that looked his way, look at you with gentle look you can’t place. They even crease with the smile that he’s wearing. Your eyes widen, he has a fucking dimple. He looks like a gentleman, he looks handsome. You can't stop staring at his smile. 
“Y/n? You alright?” You Stepdad breaks through the haze you were in. You look at your parents and back to Suguru who all have concerned expressions on their faces.  You feel your entire body heat in embarrassment.  
‘Uhm—yea I'm fine.” You look at your parents, refusing to look back at that smile.  Suguru has different plans. 
“Hey y/n, it’s been a long time yeah?” Suguru says in that deep voice that has your heart beating faster.  Out the corner of your eye you watch as Suguru reaches over the food, holding his hand out. Does he really think you’re about to give him a damn handshake?  
...Are you seriously thinking about shaking that huge hand? No, you won’t. 
You purse your lips and cross your arms over your chest. You swear you see him glance down at your cleavage but the next second, he's holding eye contact. You blink and look away with a ‘hmm’. He lowers his hand.  
“Alright guys let's eat, okay?” You mom breaks the tension. Everyone grabs their share, and you eat in silence for a while, nobody brave enough to speak and you simmering with anger at Suguru. You throw glare at him every time you look up from your plate which happens more times than you’d admit.  
“You got something there.” Suguru points the sharp end of the fork at you. 
“What?” You ask. 
“There,” He grabs his napkin and starts to reach for you. You tense suddenly locked in place. Suguru brings the napkin to the corner of your mouth and wipes it. “There you go.” 
You stare at him like he's grown three heads. Maybe he’s dying and wants to make amends? Why else would he be treating you like this. Maybe someone took over his body? That has to be it. 
“Uh thanks?” You mummer, unsure what to say. 
“You're welcome little sis.” You choke on your spit. What the hell did he just call you!? He must be messing with you; you’re suddenly filled with rage. You glare at him, hoping he disintegrates with the sheer force of your stare. 
“You’ve grown up.” Suguru says after another blinking contest, you lost. 
“Yea, have you?” You snarl. He stops smiling. 
“I have,” he says seriously, setting his fork down. “I want to talk about—” 
“I don’t care.” 
“Please—” 
“No!” You slam your hand on the table, and he goes silent. You’re overcome with guilt before you remember that he bullied you for a year, that he told the entire school to bully you after he graduated. Fuck him. 
— 
You slam the door the door of your room speed walking to the bathroom. You strip your clothes before turning on the tub. You finally breathe when you settle into the scolding hot water. You needed to wash his gaze, his touch, off your body. The entire dinner after your conversation was awkward, your parents didn't really speak, and you refused to glance back up at Suguru who wouldn't stop staring.  
You hated him. You hated him. You—you can’t bring yourself to hate him. For some unknown reason you can’t bring yourself to hate him despite everything he's put you through. Why? You shake your head. You don’t want to think of Suguru while you're trying to relax. You phone dings. You pick up and a smile replaces your frown. @Sssman72. 
‘How are you babydoll, you alive?’ 
‘Yes, wish I wasn’t though.’ 
‘Why what happened during dinner?’ You sigh and send him voice message detailing everything that happened. 
‘Oh wow.’ 
‘I know.’ 
‘You gonna give him a chance to explain?’ 
‘I don’t know I don’t want to but also, I want to hear his explanation...can we call I really don't want to type all of this out?’  
‘Course, give me a second. I'll call you.’ You wait a few minutes before you hear the familiar ring. 
“Hi handsome.” you smile at the blank profile. Right now, you’d do anything to see him, to hear him comfort you, to be in his arms. He could be the ugliest man in the world, you wouldn’t care. 
‘HI beautiful. Talk to me.’ He types into the chat box. 
“I don't know. like I said I want to hear him out but also, I don't want to hear it because what it it’s bad, what if it doesn’t excuse it? But also, what if it does and I feel like shit for being mean back—it's just so stressful.” 
‘I know babydoll. I wish I could be there right now and hold you. I would do anything to take that hurt away. I'm sorry. I’m so fucking sorry.’ 
“Stop, don’t apologize you didn’t do anything. If anything, I should apologize for using you as a therapist when you paid to see me naked.” You laugh. 
‘Beautiful girl—I would rather pay to hear all your problems and be able to comfort you than see you naked again.’ 
“Wow you don’t want to see me naked, I'm hurt. Just kidding, thank you for saying that handsome.” You feel your heart skip a beat at his message. Maybe you can convince him to turn his camera on tonight. 
“I kinda wanna take my mind off everything right now.” You murmur into the phone before turning on your camera. You hold it above you and smile so he can see everything.  
‘So, fucking beautiful, prettiest girl in the world. You gonna give me a show?’ 
“hm,” You use your free hand to tap your chin. “Only if you do something for me.” 
‘And what is that?’ 
‘Can you turn your camera on? And before you say no, you don’ have to show your face—maybe you can just show your dick or something else. We can masturbate on the phone, please handsome please.” You whine giving him your best puppy face. You watch as the chat bubbles disappear and reappear. You’re about to back out but all the sudden you’re looking at a dim lit room and a huge cock between a big hand. Your eyes widen and the sight. 
"Y-you probably won’t be able to type and jack off at the same time” You suck in a breath. Please turn your audio on please... 
‘I’m gonna turn my audio on but I won’t talk, okay? Think you can get off on my moans babydoll?’  
You nod. 
‘Good girl now show me that pretty pussy, make it squirt for me.’ 
You lift yourself up to sit on the corner of the tub, propping one leg on tub and spreading the other that rests in the water. You flip the camera so your mystery man can watch you finger yourself. You hear him groan and spit onto his hand. 
You moan softly at the sound, teasing your entrance. You wish he was talking to through it, but you’ll settle for this for now. One day... 
“Mmm, wish you were the one fingering me right now,” You circle your clit before gliding your fingers out your cunt. 
“Wish you were here, holding me n' fucking me.” You curl your fingers into your g-spot and moan. You look back at your phone, watching your stranger play with the tip of his long cock. It looks so big compared to his hand, you know you’ll struggle to take it. Your pussy clenches around your small fingers that do close to nothing compared to your dildos at home.  
“Wan’ your cock in me so bad, it looks so big you’ll have to force me to take it, you’ll have to hold me down and make me take it.” You cry out. You watch as he squeezes his hand up and down his cock. It looks painful. He grunts louder. 
“M’gonna cum for you handsome, m’gonna give you what you want and make a mess,” You speed up your fingers to match how fast he slides his fist up and his cock. You moan louder, thankful that you got the suite and aren’t in the room next to your stepbrothers, how embarrassing it would be if he could hear you pleasuring yourself.  
You clench harder around your fingers. Your stranger starts to grunt and groan louder. You shiver at his deep voice on the edge of cumming. 
“Please please let me cum please! Can I come for you please?” You cry, your pussy starts to squelch, spurts of liquid coming out. 
“Yes, cum for me.” Your mystery man groans in an all too familiar voice but before you have time to think about it, you’re squirting, the grip on your phone loosening and falling into the water. 
“N-no!” 
— 
“Yes, this phone is done for, your mother and I are heading into town we can try to find a company that sells phone, but you know how small towns like this are.” You stepdad stares at your phone that’s been sitting in a container full of rice since last night.  
“Fuck, I need it for work! What am I going to do?” You look up at him in distress. 
“What do you need your phone for bartending?” He looks down at you incredulously. 
“My boss is sending me some important email and I didn't bring my computer.” You lie. 
“Well, you can use Suguru’s laptop, I saw him using it this morning in the sitting room. Think he left it there before he went on his run.” Your stepdad points down the hall as your mother rounds the corner.  
“Ready to go honey?” She asks your stepdad. 
“Coming! Use Suguru laptop to check your email, if we come back and you haven’t got the email you can use my phone. Bye! Have fun and be nice!” Your stepdad waves before following your mother. You wave back. 
 Of course, you had to use Suguru’s laptop. Maybe you can just log in, tell your stranger that you’re okay and that you won’t be able to contact him until you get a new phone and then delete the history before Suguru comes back from his run. It’ll only take a few minutes...you hope he doesn’t a password.  
You run to the sitting room, but you don’t see a laptop anywhere. Dammit, he always has to make things hard for you. You walk up the round staircase and down the hall until you're standing in front of Suguru’s room. You look around, as if Suguru's gonna pop up out of nowhere and attack you from going into his room. You shake the thought off and open his door. You stop and stare at the bed, you feel like you've seen that duvet. You chalk it up to a bunch of man having the same bedding before turning to scan the room for a laptop. You quickly spot the laptop on his desk and run to it. You sigh in relief when it opens to the last tab he had opened. Thank you Suguru for not caring about who gets into your shit. You click new tab and start to type in the name of the website you use before you freeze.  
You only need to type in three letters before the website popped up in top hits. You stop breathing. No... He couldn’t know what you do. Is that why he came here? Was he going to expose you to your parents? Was he acting nice to butter you up before crushing you? Your vision starts to blur. All boys watch porn, maybe he just happens to watch porn on the same website you film on. You can block your account from him so that he never finds you. You swallow before clicking the tab. You shakily move they pointer over to the search bar before you spot something in the left corner that makes you dizzy.  
Right where the username of the viewer is supposed to be is the username @Sssman72. Your heart stops and you feel wetness hit your hands. This can’t be real. You move to chat and cry out when you see your username. The last text he sent was asking what happened. No—this is a dream; you’re going to wake up and this is going to be a bad nightmare. You refuse to believe the man you’ve been slowly falling in love with over the last six months is your stepbrother, your bully. The man you confessed all your darkest secrets is the man who never showed you an ounce of kindness. Is this a part of his master plan? Is he going to blackmail you and hold all the nudes you’ve sent him and all the secrets you’ve told him over your head. You’re going to become his slave, doing whatever he wants of you until you die. You curl into yourself and cry harder at the thought.  
“Y/n? What are you do—” Suguru stops when he sees what's on the screen. “Let me explain please baby.” He reaches out to touch your shoulder. You flinch away from his touch.  
“D-don’t call me that,” You sob staring at him with such heartbreak in your eyes he wants to drop and beg for your forgiveness. “You-you, it was you the whole time.” Your voice breaks. 
Suguru nods slowly trying to reach out for you again. You take a few steps away. “Was this some masterplan to hold me under your thumb for the rest of my life!?” You scream at him. 
He’s grateful your parents went out of town; this would be an absolute shitshow if they were here.  
“No babydoll—” 
“I said don’t call me that you asshole! Stop pretending. I hate you Suguru! You win okay, you win!” You tell him before you run out of his room. He curses before running after you, you run up that stairs and into the suite but before you can shut the door Suguru shoves it open. You drop to your knees to pull your suitcase from under your bed. 
“Please listen to me y/n. I wasn’t faking—stop packing and let me explain.” Suguru pleads as he watches you throw your clothes into your suitcase. 
“Y/n, baby, please listen to me please” He grabs your arm, and you try to fight him, but he pulls you down onto the bed with him. He hugs you around the waist and you push in this chest trying to break free. His heart aches. He hates seeing you hurt, he hates that he was the one who made you cry like this. He hates that you only associate him with the version of himself that he created to stop anyone from seeing what he was truly feeling. He hates that you won’t accept the real version of him now that you know it was him. He holds you tighter as you scream and cry. He whispers sweet nothings as you whisper how much you hate him. At some point you stop fighting and wrapping your arms around his neck. You sniffle into his neck, and he rubs your backs and rocks you.  
“Why?” You ask hoarsely after all the anger leaves your body. Now you feel numb, like you're watching your life from a third perspective.   
“I never hated you, I never lied, and I never planned to blackmail you—I know you don’t believe me baby but everything I've ever told you on that app was real. Everything I feel for you is real.”   You pull your face out of his neck and stare up at him. You don’t believe him. 
“I have never hated you y/n. I swear it. I hated the fact that my father replaced my mother with yours not even a year after she died. Baby, I never fucking hated you. I was just a teenager who didn’t know how to express my emotions so I took them out of the person I knew I could hurt the most. It was bad I know; I feel like shit to this day. When I graduated and got away from my father, I realized how bad I was to you, and I got into therapy. I wanted to be better for myself, for you, for everyone around me. I didn’t know that the bullying continued when I left. I didn’t know how bad people had taken it until that day I came back home. When you told me off about it, I was so confused. I’m so fucking sorry. I want to reach out and apologize for everything and the day I planned to do it Satoru—my best friend, you remember him—well he sent me the link to your account and so I made an account and it all just spiralized out of control after that. I was too embarrassed to tell you it was me and then we started to form a connection, a real connection, and I didn’t want our conversations to end so—fuck I'm sorry. Everything I told you; I meant it. I fucking meant every word.”  
You sit there stunned, trying to comprehend everything he said. You never knew about his mother. You thought she had passed away long before your mom and his dad had met. But you remember when your stranger told you that. God, you remember when your not so mystery man told you about his family the seemed so familiar to yours. And he didn’t tell all those people to bully you after he left? Did he mean every word? Every word of affirmation he gave you. Those times when he told you that you were capable of being loved and that you were going to find someone who would love every part of you, the good and bad. Was that the same Suguru? You try to wrap your mind around the fact that the man you love is your stepbrother. 
“I know it’s a lot of information.” 
“It is.” 
“Do you believe me?” He looks at you with furrowed brows. You do. Despite everything you find yourself nodding. He sighs and you feel the tension release from his shoulders that your arms are wrapped around. You suddenly realize the position you two are in and feel your face heat. Your arms are wrapped around his neck and your legs are on either side of his thick thighs his cock, the cock that you saw last night, is right underneath you, if you lower yourself an inch, you’d be sitting on it.  
Suguru grips your waist with one hand, the other cupping the right side of your face. You look up at him and sniffle. He leans down until your foreheads are touching.  
“If you give me achance, I'll treat you like the queen you are. I’ll love you the way you’re meant to be loved. One chance is all I ask for.” He mummers rubbing your noses together.  
You hesitate, one part of you wants to run away with him because he’s the man you’ve wanted for the last six months. The other part of you wants to run away from him, he’s your stepbrother, he lied, and you don't know if he would’ve ever told you the truth. But isn’t that what he came here to do? Can you blame a little boy for being mad at the people who replaced his mother?  
You give him his answer by grabbind his neck and push his lips towards you. If this does go to hell at least you’ll have a story to tell your feature children.  
Suguru kisses back before standing and pulling you off him. “What—” 
“You said you wanted me on my knees, didn't you? I’m ready to serve you in any way you want. I can have my savings transferred to your account by tomorrow night.” He says as he drops to his knees. You stare at him with wide eyes as he holds your legs and starts kissing from knee to right where your pussy starts.  
“Suguru—” 
“Shh babydoll let me take care of my girl, show her how sorry I am for hurting her.” He mummers before dropping your leg and picking up the next one. He repeats this a few more times before finally asking you to lift your hips so he can pull your leggings and panties off. Suguru throws your pants behind him before standing up to pull your tank top off. You reach behind to unbuckle your bra and toss it on the floor with your other clothes. Suguru chuckles, reaching up to kiss all over your face. 
“Take your clothes off too Sugu.” You giggle, reaching for his sweatpants. You get a firm grip and yank them down. His thick cock bounces out. Your mouth goes slack. The phone call didn’t do it justice. It somehow looks bigger than before and if you weren’t wet before, you are now. That thing is going to be inside you soon.  
“Like what you see beautiful?” You nod dumbly as you watch Suguru step out of his pants and take his shirt off with one hand. He’s so fucking sexy.  
He drops back down to his knees and pulls you until your ass is hanging off the bed. “Lay down and let me please you.”  You comply and watch as Suguru lifts your legs up and buries his face in your cunt. Your hands fly down to his long shiny hair. 
“Suguru!” You moan as he licks you from asshole to clit. He sucks on your clit before biting both lips. Your pussy clenches. “Feels s’good Sugu!” You grind down on his talented tongue. Suguru hums into your clit before setting one of you thighs in his shoulder and bringing his fingers to your entrance. He teases you, only pushing his fingers into the joint before taking them out. You cry out in frustration before pulling on his long hair when he finally slides two big fingers into you. 
Yours definitely don't compare to his long thick ones. Your back arches off the bed as Suguru fingers jackhammer into you all the while his mouth sucks on your clit.  
“S’good Sugu! Don’t stop!” You scream letting go of hair with one hand to cover your loud mouth.  
“Don’t hide those sweet moans from me babydoll. If you want my cock, you’ll let me hear you scream my name as you cum on my fingers and mouth.” 
You bring you hand back to hair and grind hard as you get closer and closer to orgasm.  
“Gonna cum! M’gonna come!” You cry, as you release all over Suguru's face. He moans and sucks even harder before adding another finger. You cry at the sudden intrusion. It doesn't take long before you’re coming all over again, this time liquid shooting out of you and onto Sugu’s chest.  
“Yes baby, that's it—what a good girl,” He praises as he slurps up all your juices. “Such a fucking good gril f’me.” 
“Gimme a kiss.” You say between heavy breaths.  
“Does the pretty girl want kiss?” You nod, pulling Suguru down with you by the shoulders. 
“Want you to kiss me while you fuck me for the first time. Want it to be special,” You confess shyly. Suguru leans down and pecks you on the forehead, then the nose, and then both of your cheeks. 
“Don’ tease meanie!” You laugh when he kisses the corner of your lips. 
“M’sorry baby, can you forgive me?” He pouts.  
“Hmm—I’ll forgive you only if you kiss me right no—” You don’t even finish your sentence before Suguru shoves his tongue down your throat. You kiss him back and your tongues fight for dominance. Suguru wins and smiles into the kiss. You can’t believe this is happening. Your bully, your stepbrother, your mystery man is kissing you right now. Your about to make love with said man. 
“You okay babydoll?”  
“Mhm, just can’t believe this is all happening.” 
“Me too beautiful, you sure you want to do this right now? We can always wait.” 
“No, I want to. I want you.” You raise your hand to tuck his hair behind his ear. He smiles, showing you that adorable dimple. You kiss it.  
Suguru kisses your lips once more before he grabs his cock, rubbing it up and down your cunt. 
“Fuck—I don’t have a condom.” 
“I’m on the pill—please Sugu.” You beg, frustrated from all this foreplay. You’ve been on edge since last tight in the tub.  
“Alight beautiful,” He pushes the head of his cock into you. “Fuck me—you feel so good. Always knew you would.” You feel his fist guide his long cock into you. You moan. He fits you perfectly.  
“Sugu—feel’s s’good, want more!” You cry, fisting the blanket’s underneath you.  
“Does my baby want more—does she want to orgasm on my cock?” You nod watching Suguru lift your legs to his shoulder. He leans down, bringing your feet to the side of your head. You whine at the stretch. 
Suguru groans as he pulls his cock in and out of you.  
“S’too much!” You moan into his shoulder. He just laughs and picks up his pace. The fancy headboard above the bed starts to slam against the wall. You watch with blurry eyes as the stock photos hung on the wall shake.  
“Said you wanted more baby, ‘m giving you more.”  he says before biting into your neck. Hard. You scream, back arching at the pain. Your hands fist the sheets even tighter, knuckles turning white. Suguru unlatches his jaw. Lifting his head to admire his mark. Now all your customers will know you belong to someone. To him. He kisses the mark. 
“Sugu, It’s too much. Hurts! m’gonna cum!” You cry, tears soaking the blanket breath you. 
“Oh, don't cry baby—shhh—you’re so beautiful y/n. So damn pretty.” He whispers, coaxing you to orgasm. Your eyes roll to the back of your head. You stop breathing for a second as your pussy contracts around Suguru's cock. Suguru follows in suit, spurting his cum deep inside your pussy. 
“Fuck,” he draws out, collapsing onto you.  
“T-that was—” 
“The best sex ‘ve ever had.” 
“Same.” You smile before wincing. 
“What’s wrong babydoll.”  
“You're about to break my damn hip if you keep my legs up any longer,” Suguru lefts himself enough to bring your legs to his sides. “And you probably ripped a chunk of my neck off with that little trick of yours.” You grumble. 
“It’s not bad, promise.” He kisses the bite mark softly. 
“And all the pictures fell of the wall.”  
“I’ll put ‘em back up baby,” He laughs into your ear. “Just let me hold you for a second.”  He kisses your cheek before snuggling deeper into you. You throw your arms around his shoulder while you both try to wrap your head around everything that happened.

Reading SVSSS: Chapter 8
Tumblr media
For those who don't know, I am reading SVSSS for the first time and sharing my thoughts!
If you have not read it, there will be spoilers! Consider this a warning.
Also- if you want to follow along, I am aiming to post updates daily. You can find all the posts in the tag bloopitynoot reads SVSSS. You can also check out the intro post for context on my read.
Tumblr media
I am back! I know it's been a few days, but this week has been the absolute pits at work. Semester start up, new students, ramp up in projects, and alarm testing; it has been A Lot.
I am back though! I'm not going to lie, I am kind of scared that this chapter is titled "death". I may not be emotionally prepared.
No cat pics this week, Charlie has decided to abandon me- but I did break out the pumpkin mug for some pumpkin tea :'3
Here we go!
Tumblr media
I love how Shen Qingqiu seeing this fight and an out of place person is like "only one type of person is like this" and then just doesn't say anything about who/what they are. p143
Wait, why does he toss the cat in there LOL 144
I am actually so glad that Little Palace Mistress got slapped twice! no one knows who actually slapped her- I do wish it was Ning YinYing, but it doesn't say who? (Is this revealed later? or just like left to the imagination?) pp144-145
oh shit! Another sower?!?!? p146
I feel like anytime this guy (shen qingqiu) tries to save himself Without a Cure really just ends up doing him dirty. p147
omg not his right hand again (re: touched by the sower) p148
and now he's (SQQ) being blamed again for yes another death he did not do (Re: toxic demonic poison and the disciple in the water prison). p149
oh no. did Luo Binghe kill Gongyi Xiao too??? I actually liked him (him being Gongyi Xiao) :( p150
oof. again I am so mad that these sects are quick to persecute SQQ without literally any proof. I am once again having flashbacks to MDZS. p152
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Oh bless Liu Qingge to the rescue (reluctantly lol) p152
and shit, we have Luo Binghe here to snatch his man once again p153
Does Luo Binghe not know Gonyi Xiao is dead? I totally thought Luo BInghe killed him? I am confused- maybe this is revealed later? p153
why do I feel like there is another plot happening Like I get this vibe that Luo BInghe did not actually kill all those people in the Water Prison or those 100 disciples. we'll see I guess? p154
and Luo BInghe is letting him go??? p154
oh gosh! Luo Binghe pulled his sword?!?!? everyone knows about the demon things now. p156
okay now they are going to attempt to "resolve" things. I'm so nervous - these two better talk. It feels like they're always having two different conversations p157
I mean I get it Luo Binghe, If that was my life I too would say "fuck fate" p157-158
wait
oh no
oh no oh no
self detonation??? My heart :'0
why am I crying right now omg
"for all that has passed, I repay you today" p159
what the fuck :'((((((((
Tumblr media
omg the amount of pain that just happened
this boy is fully breaking down and then Ning YingYing stands in to speak up
she really has grown on me as a character. Her evolution in this is so good. Good for her for standing up to literally everyone and talking some sense. pp162-163
oh gosh, it gets worse. And then here is Luo Binghe hearing from his old sect siblings about how distraught and lost SQQ was when they all thought Luo BInghe was dead. p163
Sweet baby boy Luo BInghe, just having an entire breakdown pp164-165
Well fuck.
Fucking hell, is this fool really dead?? Where was the system in all of this- we didn't even hear from it. No rescue or usage of points :(((((
I need it to be tomorrow so I can see what happens next.

more thoughts (positive for a change)
sorry to keep treating this like a personal journal when most of you are here for CoB content but it remains the 1 place where i feel semi-safe talking about things w/o blasting them to 10k+ people while also having more than 0 people listening
but just feeling a little hopeful for once! i got invited to speak on my 2nd ever panel today. it looks like it's a small convention and it's far too early to know if it'll actually pan out (not even responding today bc im trying to be more strict about giving myself wednesdays off), but it's still just...really cool that i'm actually being recognized as a professional and invited to things.
i still think so much about how when i was like.....12....or something, we had to do one of those like...dream life assignments. and i remember exactly what i said- i wanted to be a mangaka in japan with a studio apartment (yes, i was a very cringy kid. i called my friends -chan and -kun too). then i got older and more realistic. realized i could do art, but never my own project, and yeah, that's what i did for a long time.
yet... here i am now?!! granted, i never moved to japan (which i'm fine w/ lol) and it turns out studio apartments kinda suck and i much prefer a 1 bedroom...but i'm making a living off of that comic i came up w/ in middle school when had 0 concept of reality and how unlikely the chance to do that would be. and... i dunno! for a kind of rare moment, i feel like i can keep doing it (knock on wood)? if it's not obvious by now, i can get kinda doom and gloom about my future (and i wont even think about the industry as a whole w/ AI becoming more of a problem every day), but just for this moment i feel kinda optimistic?
i still have no idea what my future holds with webtoon. I have no idea when I'll have something ready to pitch again or if they'll even take it, but for once I feel like that uncertainty doesn't mean all or nothing. I kinda feel confident for once that even once CoB concludes on Webtoon, I can keep doing this to some capacity, whether that's through another series, physically printing CoB, somehow continuing CoB, I dunno yet. like i dunno. i think i'm just finally having this dawning realization that i am a professional? and other people see me as such? ik, probably a dumb thing to just now be realizing but blah blah, imposter syndrome or something, etc etc.
not sure where i'm going with this but just thank you guys for your support. if you're one of the like 100 people who actually follow me here, tbh you're probably one of my more dedicated readers, so thanks for being part of making this quite literal childhood fantasy dream come true. and shout out to the people actually inviting me to stuff on the super slight chance they actually follow me here. it seriously gave me kind of a reminder that oh yeah, i am a professional and good at this

whats crackling? whats snackling? in the near future, possibly YOU! This next one might be good for those of yall who dont have big kitchens. Today on our cooking review revue is Golden Hill pears from the Redwall Cookbook- 
(for crackling and snackling purposes you can find the original recipe at the bottom to follow along)-
MY NAMES CROSS NOW LETS COOK LIKE ANIMALS
SO, “what goes in to Golden Hill Pears?” YOU MIGHT ASK
sugar
water
4 medium pears (peeled, halved, cored)
ground allspice
As you can guess by the ingredients, golden hill pears are just caramelized pears. Am a huge fuckin fan of caramelized stone fruits- peaches, pears, plums,- but contrary to my normal method of using an oven to achieve the desired syrupy goodness, this recipe calls only for a little sauce-pot and lid! 
AND, “what does Golden Hill Pears taste like?” YOU MIGHT ASK
If you've had caramelized fruit before you'll get the gist, however, these are on the higher end in terms of taste 100%
The allspice is such a brush of warmth and comfort
Tastes like cuddling the person you love in front of the fire
Caramel taste is even throughout
Would be so so so good paired with a nice pulled pork stew
And warm apple cider would be perfectionx2
A fulfilling end to a fall season that passed too fast
. Where pear halves called for, strained and used canned pear slices (0% added juice) . Where sugar called for, used fine granulated sugar . Tripled cooking time for initial caramelization
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Go fucking hogwild with the allspice honestly, i used about 2 soup-spoonfuls of it and couldve still probably done more. its up to personal preference but its damn good.
Also; cooked way more evenly than youd think. Once the initial caramelization was done each 'batch' of pears cooked pretty quick.
SO, it took me about 3 tries to get this right as the book describes itself. My first mistake was letting it get to a golden brown color, as the book says you should, because by the time the sugar and water is that color alone in the pan, it is already way too late and is going to burn by the time you add the pears in. You need to add the pears in a bit earlier than whats going to feel right- when the mixture becomes a strong yellow-ish color id say?
The second time, because the first try had burnt, i tried lowering the heat/going against the books advice and stirring throughout. In all previous times ive caramelized something it was good to get some motion in there, so i figured if it burnt before maybe the issue was too much heat and no movement. This didnt work. This instead somehow created massive sugar crystals which over the period of about 30 seconds (once reaching temp and adding to the pan) quickly hardened and had to be chipped away until it broke off the spoon and the pot. Im not a scientist i have no fucking idea.
It mightve tasted good and been a cool cake topper but at this point we were 40 minutes in with no delicious pears so we werent wasting time with tasters.
Third attempt; corrected from previous mistakes. Watched the saucepot like a fuckin HAWK, didnt stir or disturb the pan, had it on medium heat for about 21 minutes until it started turning yellow, added the pears and allspice in immediately, covered and simmered it. I had 2 cans of pears that i strained and patted dry of excess fluid, so with 2 seperate batches for the one pot. I think the second batch came out richer but there wasnt too much a difference. Both came out lovely to eat with the syrup drizzled over top.
All in all, from deciding to make them to having them in my belly, and subtracting failed attempts, id estimate it took about 30 minutes? It would be longer if you prepared the pears yourselves, along with the cooktime for them probably, but its not neccesary for this recipe.
It tastes fuckin good and would be excellent in living situation where all you have available is a portable hot-top. I could see myself making it again now that i know what visual cues to look for.
I give this recipe a solid 8/10 (with 1 being food that makes one physically sick and 10 being food that gives one a lust for life again.)
🐁 ORIGINAL RESIPPY TEXT BELOW 🐁
Ingredients:
3 tablespoons sugar
4 medium pears, peeled, halved lengthwise and cored
Generous pinch ground allspice
Method:
Put the sugar in the bottom of a heavy saucepan and sprinkle 2 tablespoons of water over it. Cook over medium heat without stirring until the mixture reaches a golden brown caramel, about 7 minutes. (Swirl the pan if the caramel colors unevenly).
Standing back, pour in 1/4 cup of water, taking care as it will spit.
Add the pears and allspice to the pan, cover and simmer until the pears are tender, 10 to 15 minutes.
Use a slotted spoon to transfer the pears to a serving dish. Raise the heat and boil the syrup vigourously for 1 minute.
Pour the syrup over the pears and serve immediately, or let cool and then chill before serving.

Light a Fire
a/n: i’m going to be honest about this request, i loved writing it but i know 0 about f1 except from a few videos i see on tiktok so dont hate me
Tumblr media
“What do you even know about F1?” Mat laughed and all that really did was irritate you. You could feel your cheeks start to burn, a good indication of your annoyance. Maybe you shouldn’t have said anything at all to him. But then he would have gotten irritated that you didn’t tell him you were seeing someone. “Oh I’m sorry, do all of your exes have extensive knowledge on hockey? Is that a requirement?”
His eyes widened slightly at your snippiness towards him and instead he held his hands up in surrender. “I don’t get why you’re getting so defensive over a joke.” Both of you had been friends for years and this was one of those rare moments that you would consider a fight. Usually Mat was the person you’d go to for anything and everything but right now he was making it really easy to not want to talk to him.
“Whatever Mat, anyways. Lando is flying in later today. I was going to invite you to get food and drinks with us later but don’t bother showing up if you’re going to be annoying.” That was a clear warning because last thing you wanted was for your dinner to be ruined by Mat saying something rude or being this weird version of himself. “I’ll be there. Got to make sure he’s cool.” He left it at that and you weren’t really in the mood to keep on talking so instead you gave him the details he would need for later.
Once at the restaurant you didn’t even think about the irritating events from earlier, not as you and Lando walked up to the table he had reserved. But when you caught sight of Mat you did feel some nerves in your stomach and silently willed him to be on his best behavior. “Hey, I’m Mat.” He held his hand out for a handshake as Lando returned it. “She’s told me a lot about you.” Which was true because Mat was in a lot of your stories but you couldn’t help but pick up on the slight tone of irritation in his voice.
Throughout the dinner there were slight bits of attitude here and there coming from both guys and honestly by the time the food came out you were ready to just be back home. This wasn’t going the way you wanted it to. “You’re still coming to my game tomorrow right?” Mat asked and you wanted to hit your head against your hand because how could you forget. It was a pretty important one for him and he had asked days back if you wanted tickets.
“Actually we already have plans for tomorrow.” Lando started and Mat let out a laugh that let you know he was pissed. “Could you maybe get one extra ticket? I’m sure we could adjust our plans.” You asked, hopeful at least that maybe just maybe Mat would be okay with this and not hold it over you. “It’s last minute and I already got tickets for my dad too. I can’t just give out tickets, you know that.” 
With those words being said, Mat pulled his wallet out, pulling out a $100 bill and putting it on the table. “I’m going to head out, sorry to be rude.” And he was exiting the building. What was his problem? “I’ll be right back.” You quickly said and followed him on out. “Mat, wait.” You called out after him as you stepped outside in the cool air. Mat paused, turning around slowly and you could tell he was definitely upset.
“I’m sorry I forgot about the game. You know I wanted to be there.” But you also felt bad canceling on Lando when he had flown out here. “You just don’t get it, do you? You don’t see it and I don’t know how. Call me when you figure it out.” He went to turn around and your head was spinning slightly from his words, you had no clue what he was talking about. “Mathew what are you talking about?” You noticed the pause from using his full first name and he turned back around again. “I’m in love with you and you don’t even see it.”

Literally just found out about you today and I'm already follow in you. As fellow tele-GONE-y hater, I absolutely stan with all the hate we have for that stupid fan fiction. Circe used to be one of my favorite books, I still think the writing is good. But when you look at the original source material? Yikes- I don't get why Miller chose CIRCE out of everyone. If she wanted to write a feministic story that's fine. But why chose a female character whom you have to make better and corrupt all the other characters in the source material so that Circe is more sympathetic? Why couldn't she write a TRUE feministic story about some other character?? I personally would've loved a story about Nausikaa. Which would make more sense considering she is a character who is often forgotten in most retellings of the Odyssey.
Circe isn't a sympathetic character, she was never supposed to be one. To make her sympathetic is to make everyone around her terrible. I'm so angry when people use this book for insight on Circe character because it is so different to actual Circe.
I'm also so very salty about what she did to my boy Hermes because what.
Thank you so much!!! Sorry this took a while to answer! Thankfully most folks are not a fan of the Tele-GONE-y either :'D it's mostly the "well, actually" folks who talk about it. >:(
"If she wanted to write a feministic story that's fine. But why choose a female character whom you have to make better and corrupt all the other characters in the source material so that Circe is more sympathetic?"
This right here, is exactly how I feel with so many of these "feminist retellings". Feminism is about lifting each other up. If you have to make everybody else "worse" to make your main character better, then...that's just not good storytelling.
This goes along with the whole "all men are bad no matter what" that happens all the time and I hate it so much. Even if the system may be sexist, that does not mean that every single male agrees with it.
You put everything into words well but I like to ramble so Ima say shit too but it's basically the same thing lol
With the whole "every horrible thing Circe has done is done fo a reason. she's defending herself, she was wronged, men are so evil uwu" is just fucking lazy and SUCKS. >:( LET WOMEN BE FLAWED, COWARDS!
I actually really love Odyssey Circe as a character. She's morally gray and does whatever she wants as a goddess. Yes, she terrifies Odysseus but she's COMPLEX. Why does she need a reason to turn men into pigs? Why can't she just do it "for funsies"?
I think it takes away from her as a goddess to always have a reason for her to do the things she does, you know? Immortals are fickle and don't have the same morals as mortals. I think Miller changed so much as "to have a morally gray protagonist?? No, that's wrong!" which BORING!!!!!!!
I fucking love Penelope. But I still have her a lil mean and even a bit snooty sometimes as her and Odysseus are like-minded. Hubris would be her downfall as well. She is petty and holds grudges like no other. because she's a PERSON. Not "bland empowerment in a can for everyone to consume". Ofc, she has her wonderful qualities like her intelligence, devotion, determination, and yes, she does have her kind moments (she goes 0 to 100% real quick. She takes the "Do no harm, Take no shit" phrase to the extremes. lol)
But honestly? I think there's a real problem in writing in many YA books and especially in fandom where people treat female characters as goddesses (which yes, understandable) but then they can't...make her human you know? Almost like they cannot see any of the woman's flaws or even WANT her to have flaws because "woman doing a bad thing that isn't done 'cutely' ("endearingly clumsy", "quirky chatterbox", etc. traits that are usually not the greatest are "cute" now simply because she's a woman. Maybe a love interest sees her that way but those traits would probably be considered annoying to many others.) regardless is antifeminist"
And even then, so many things that I want to write about are what many would consider feminist when...She's just existing. And I'm getting silly with it. Penelope is athletic and a naiad (75% but you know. with her parentage) but I don't write her that way TO make it feminist. I'm not doing it for that. I just like tiny but mighty wife ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I don't plan to write other women as "lesser" for not being athletic for example. Anticlea doesn't understand why Penelope likes doing that stuff but she's still supportive and they enjoy weaving together. I am NEVER putting down another female character for not being "girlboss" enough.
I really hate that this book has made people constantly bring up the Tele-GONE-y AND Shittalking all of them. I don't like looking at retellings and seeing "a new feminist take". Usually goes against the entire story to begin with. Often portraying good male characters in the original as "bad and horrible".
Also no hate to those that enjoy Circe the Book, but to me, it sounds like trauma porn. adding rapes that were never there, making the victim of the situation the PERPATRATOR because, clearly, a man cannot be a victim. I heard about her hating being a mom despite her literally having servants and she's a GODDESS in the Odyssey. She could literally have a nanny/nurse if she wanted.
Fun fact: I was watching a video essay about villainesses and how to write them well and as soon as it started to talk about historical villainesses and how Circe was a "femme fatale", I exited the video. She's an "antagonist", she lets them stay there but she's still...Not GOOD. To be a femme fatale means to usually seduce. She does not seduce Odysseus. He was literally commanded to by Hermes and her.

William Rex Main Story: Chapter 0
Tumblr media
This is a fan-made translation solely for entertainment purposes with no guaranteed perfection. I do not own any of the original content. Please support CYBIRD by buying their stories and playing their games. Reblogs appreciated.
❥・• Warnings and FAQ
≪ this story is in william's pov ≫
If life were a fairytale, happiness would be easy to find.
As long as you stayed away from sin, did as you were told, behaved yourself, and remained on the bright and safe path.
However, if… your innermost desires wanted another path,
Would the “happy ending” you obtained by killing them off be real happiness?
My answer is… NO.
William: — Slit your throat open. As slowly as possible.
There was no target of Crown’s who could escape us.
That included our target for tonight. Unable to even scream in agony, he picked up the knife with trembling hands.
In my hand was an envelope I found in that mansion we were in, with “Golden Butterfly” stamped onto it.
(To think I’d ever see this again.)
(Evil truly never learns its lesson.)
(That goes for them — and of course, myself included.)
If you asked 100 people, you would receive 100 different answers. There was no such thing as absolute evil.
If there was actually such a thing, it would be what’s residing in everyone’s hearts.
Something utterly unforgivable. Once forgiven, they would lose their individuality.
(To me, trampling on the freedom of others is an absolutely unforgivable sin.)
(And this “Golden Butterfly” was guilty of exactly that.)
In order to punish those unforgivable sinners, I was willing to go as far as to become a sinner myself.
If this were a fairytale, I would face the same fate as this man, which was to be painted as a villain.
Alfons: Ordered to “shut up” and unable to scream even in his last moments… how pitiful.
Elbert: … We didn't have a choice. There’ll be trouble if his neighbours hear screams.
Roger: Damn, that’s a convenient ability. It’d be a real nuisance if you were my enemy.
William: Ahaha, if you become my enemy, I’ll write it down on a calendar to give you an advanced warning.
While talking to those people who had long grown used to witnessing the punishment of sinners, I sat down in front of the piano in the hall.
William: Since we’re here, let’s play him a song.
I didn't have a specific melody in mind, I only moved my fingers across the piano keys as they pleased.
Ellis: That’s wonderful, he can die happy now.
Jude: … How is that possible? You’ve got a screw loose.
Every member of Crown had a different outlook on death.
There were some who pitied, some condemned themselves, some would laugh coldly, some who mourned the deaths, and some who simply accepted death as a matter of fact.
(Their similarity is that they’re all here because they followed what their hearts truly wanted.)
However, not everyone was capable of doing that.
I suddenly recalled those greedy eyes I saw in the evening.
(It’d be good if “she” could take the first step.)
Those were my thoughts as the knife went deep into the man’s neck, and fresh blood spurted everywhere.
— The door to the hall slowly opened.
Alfons: My, my, we weren't expecting an audience tonight.
(... That’s…)
William: Now look who we have here, aren't you the little robin I met earlier today?
Kate: Um… uh… eeh…?
I remembered that woman, who was petrified by the bloody sight she witnessed.
She was the postwoman I happened to meet in the evening.
– Flashback Start –
Kate: Pardon me, that envelope is mine. I have to deliver it.
She had a calm look in her eyes as she ran after the envelope.
William: Here you go, my lady.
Kate: … T- Thank you.
William: You’re welcome.
Kate: …
When I handed her the envelope, she seemed to have forgotten herself and stared blankly at me.
(... Found another one.)
(People who have this look in their eyes are often holding themselves back.)
(Holding themselves back from saying things that shouldn't be said.)
I loved witnessing the moment they decided to speak their mind.
I stared at her in silence, watching her calm gaze waver.
At the moment — it was as if I saw the burning flames of desire in her eyes.
Her heart was overflowing with emotions, and she was doing everything she could to suppress them.
“Take me to another world.”
(— “Anywhere”.)
It was as if I heard those words coming from her tightly shut mouth.
(Ahh.)
(What a pity.)
I didn't know what motivated her, but I knew that she wanted change.
There was a desire hidden deep inside of her, struggling and desperate to be free.
(If she were given the chance to freely follow her desires… how beautiful would that be.)
William: You only have two more deliveries to make?
Kate: … Huh?
Kate: P- Pardon me, I was in a daze—
William: You should hurry. It’ll get dark soon.
(It’s too unfortunate I can’t take her away right this instant.)
(Even if that “somewhere” you desire is this abysmal darkness.)
(But… if you follow your desires and take the first step…)
(Perhaps, we’ll meet again.)
– Flashback End –
(... I didn’t expect us to meet again so soon, and in this kind of setting.)
Liam: She’s acquaintances with Will? Does she know about us?
William: We merely exchanged a few words on the streets, Liam. She doesn't know about “Crown”.
Liam: Then we’re in trouble. What should we do…?
(If I say to kill her, you would surely not hesitate to do that immediately.)
(This cat living with the guilt and pain of taking a life is awfully commendable and lovely.)
Harrison: My apologies if it’s freaking you out. That thing is actually just a stage prop used for a play.
(... You’re still the same as ever, Harrison.)
If you took into consideration the reason why he was present on this dark night, you would understand why he tried to create an escape route for her.
He looks like he doesn't have a care in the world, but he had a strong will.
Kate: Y-You’re lying…
Harrison: … It would’ve been better if you at least pretended to believe me.
Unfortunately, she instantly ruined her chance of escaping.
(Well, I suppose that’s to be expected.)
(She was meant to come here.)
Harrison: What do we do about this, Will?
William: Of course we should — take her to “The Palace’s Grim Reaper”.
Jude: Tch… I told you to lock the gate.
Roger: Haha I didn’t think anyone would trespass. You’re a naughty girl, aren't you, young lady?
Ellis: Why don't you come over? There’s no escape.
“There’s no escape” — the moment she heard those words, her body grew stiff.
She tried to back away, but her leg only moved slightly.
(Sorry, I can’t let you leave.)
(“Because you saw” is, of course, one of the reasons… but that's not all.)
It must've been a coincidence that one of her deliveries was addressed to this mansion.
However, our meeting right now was no coincidence.
(The sound of a piano being played is a sign that there's someone in the mansion, but a postwoman has no reason to enter a mansion in the dead of the night.)
(You came here on your own will.)
(You have yet to realise that.)
With great pains, she took the first step.
William: “Come here, poor little robin.”
(Let me see the desire that’s propelling you.)
Her legs obediently started moving.
Kate: I don’t want to…!
(Haha, I’m finally hearing her say her desire out loud.)
Like she was presenting herself, she stopped in front of me.
I could clearly see a splash of red on her cheek.
(... Beautiful.)
For some reason, the colour of sin suited her.
(If your will leads you to be stained with blood in the future, that would suit you much better.)
William: Pardon my discourtesy.
I pulled her closer, and she shut her eyes out of fear.
William: Done.
I wiped the blood off her face and let her go.
As if all the strength had left her body, her legs gave way and she fell onto the floor.
The calm gaze I saw in the evening was now shaking like a violently stormy sea.
It contained feelings of fear, confusion — and small bit of anticipation.
(What’s hidden in your heart?)
(What was it that made you brashly run into the darkness?)
The thought of finding out the answer to that mystery made my heart dance.
(Ahh, this will be fun.)
William: A late self-introduction. My name is William. William Rex.
William: I’m inviting you for dinner tonight. What is your name, dear guest?
(I’ll give you as much love as I can.)
May you be a flower blooming beautifully in the darkness.

Exactly what I was thinking when I said petty
100 PERCENT SATORU
And suguru would be like really irritated with you 🤭🤭🤭
ANONNNNN you’re so right. Satoru would literally pick a fight with you over something soooo stupid it could even be arguing about something as silly as the temperature outside like walk w me…
“It’s cold out here.” Satoru would say already amping up to switch replies if you agreed.
And with you being who you are in 30 degree weather (0 degree weather for the °C gang), you have to agree.
“Yeah I don’t know how I’m gonna survive this winter.” You reply to him all sniffly. You look at him, expecting him to agree but when you saw that glint in his eyes you knew he was about to start.
“Its not that cold you big baby.” He teases and you immediately shoot him a glare.
“Satoru, you just said it was cold.” You argue but he only shrugs
“I don’t know what you mean.” He smirks. You roll your eyes.
“Satoru I can’t fucking stand you”
“Good because I plan on bending that pussy over and fucking it over the couch,” Satoru turns his head to look at you before continuing, “so keep getting mad baby I’ll make it worth it in the end.” He finishes his sentence with grabbing your hand and kissing the knuckles. You can only sigh aloud as heat traveled from your face and between your legs.
The saddest part? You knew he was right about making it worth it in the end…
Now SUGURU? — you’re for certain picking the fights because whereas Satoru loves to fuck you when you’re pissed, you love to have Suguru fuck you when he’s pissed (and he can’t lie he loves it when you piss him off deep down for a special dick down). Again! Take a quick walk w me!
“Ru, baby can you hand me the salt out the cabinet.” You were cooking a meal after being away from Suguru all day. He came through the door a little tired but still slightly handsy on you but something about the way he looked today had you wanting him to fuck the life out of you.
So instead of asking, you did the following:
“Here you go baby.” Suguru says when he hands you the salt. You look at him, furrowing your eyebrows but only snatch the salt from him. He raises an eyebrow at your sudden attitude.
“Why you look like that?” You as him, feigning like you did nothing wrong.
“Nah nah why do you look like that?” He flips back on you sucking his teeth, “and snatching the salt out my hand like that whats wrong with you?”
“Aint nothing wrong with me you the one with the face all tore up.” You deflect back and Suguru doesn’t say anything immediately. When you feel his stare on you for a moment longer you look over at him to see him staring at you. A slow gaze all over your frame — taking in your thin cami and famous shorts that always slid up your ass. He wasn’t dumb. You only wore those shorts for him and when you were in that mood.
So instead of getting further worked up, he sucks his teeth and reaches towards the stove. Before you can even register he cuts off the burner, causing your head to look at him but he also grabs onto your arm. You look at him, seeing the annoyance over his face but that dark glint behind his eyes… you knew you succeeded.
“If you wanted me to fuck you baby all you had to do was say so,” he says darkly before grabbing onto your face and putting his thumb in your mouth, “now be a good girl and show me what this mouth can do other than being fucking mean.”

Haddie Harrington Pt 2.
Tumblr media
“Come on Haddie, let’s get our shoes on.”
She shook her head ferociously in response, turning the simple task into a game of wits; who could outlast the other in the battle of fussing over which shoes to wear.
“Duckies.”
“It’s not raining.”
“Duckies.” Her voice stern, she mirrored Steve in all the ways that count; long luscious chocolate brown locks that are untidy and unkempt even in pigtails, brows puckered and furrowed in attempted anger (she was too cute to be fully angry), and those hands on her hips. Wonder where she learned that from…
“They don’t match your pretty first-day-of-school outfit.”
Closing her eyes, crossing her arms, and shaking her head, she was taking an early lead. “Duckies.”
“Fine.” He had time to perfect the disappointed father's voice and gave up without an aggravated tone, perhaps because he knew he could never win.
With a smile that seemed a little too victorious, Haddie dropped to the bench in the mud room of their little two-bedroom bungalow on the opposite side of town where he grew up, kicking her feet happily as he helped slide on the bright yellow rain boots with duck bills and eyes painted on. 
He’d be lying if he said they didn’t look adorable with her little black and white striped dress and blue and yellow polka dot headband. (Yes, she wanted to dress herself and who was he to deny her?)
Once she was happy with her boots and her dress and the little backpack he helped onto her shoulders, she put her arms up, a silent plea to be picked up and held tight. He wasn’t about to deny her that either; it was his daughter's first day of preschool, after all, she was getting too big too fast and he would give anything for another moment or so where he got to treat her like his little girl.
Haddie-1, Steve- 0.
He kissed her cheek with an over-exaggerated mwah and he sighed in relief when she accepted it with a giggle rather than with a look of disgust. Steve’s eyes fell on the mirror in the hallway, raking a hand through his own unkempt hair, Haddie following suit. It was unmistakable how alike they looked, especially today with his shirt matching her duckies. Earlier, he had reached into the closet for the yellow collared polo he had in the back, some incessant voice in the back of his mind telling him that yellow looked good on him with his dark eyes and hair. 
It was his first day just as much as it was Haddie’s. 
First impressions meant everything.
That’s why they were leaving 15 minutes earlier than necessary, Steve leaving his little girl in a fit of tickles after buckling her up tight. He locked eyes with her in the rearview mirror, asked her a question with a flick of his brow, nodded, and turned the radio up almost to 100, signing together to her favorite tape of silly kid songs. Signing and driving with the windows down with his favorite girl.
“And that’s where Daddy went to high school, and that’s where Daddy used to work-” He tried not to shutter at the old lot that once was teeming with life, Starcourt mall nothing but the shell of a building now. “I used to scoop ice cream and eat ice cream all day too.” She thought it was the coolest job ever, and that’s all that mattered. 
“What’s that?” She asked, little finger wiggling at something on the other side of the window. 
Squinting, there were still some things new to Steve, the bronze statue in the middle of Jackson square one of them. It looked like a little girl, hair down to her shoulders, wide stance, a hand raised out and up, bronze, cold eyes staring straight up at nothing. The plaque would have told him it wasn’t a statue of Jane Hooper, or Eleven as he and her best friends knew her, though the statue’s likeness to the alien girl was uncanny. The plaque would have told him it was in honor of those lost during the ‘86 earthquake and in honor of those who never gave up searching.
That’s why he responded to his daughter with an “I don’t know sweetheart,” because it had been an awfully long time since he was driving these streets, following the directions to the school scribbled on a piece of paper, being careful it didn’t fly out the window. He used reference points to get there; left at Starcourt, down and left on Winslet, past the public library, and one block over. Thankfully, most everything was the same, but it felt so different; felt like he was a traveler, a tourist in his own town. 
He hoped it would feel like home.
Main street looked exactly the same as when he left, the flags and the streetlights, the same old parked cars, he wondered if they had even moved spots since he was here last, the stores he knew with ads and signs in the window. But now he found he didn’t know who worked in those stores anymore, if they were still open, worried if he parked his car too long or in the wrong spot he’d get a ticket. 
Unless Hopper was still sheriff. What were the odds of that? And what were the odds Hooper would still keep from giving Steve a measly parking ticket; he wasn’t the same washed-up teenager who could use a favor once in a while, wasn’t the same asshole whose parents were influential and wealthy enough to not only pay off the ticket, but pay off the right man on the force to keep their son’s record clear. 
He hoped it wouldn’t be that way.
People treating him like the old washed-up teenager he used to be. King Steve, who would have drunk a six-pack in thirty seconds before warming up to the idea of settling down with a girl who wasn’t a cheerleader or a beauty pageant winner and starting a family. 
“Daddy, look.” Safe from the rest of his looming thoughts, Steve’s gaze followed Haddie’s finger, pointing to the stop sign and the children and parents crossing the road. He came to an abrupt halt, laughter ringing through the car as he turned the music down. The school was in view, sunshine among the old buildings with its freshly manicured floral entrance and rainbow murals on the walls of the building, welcoming and sweet. 
The parents in the crosswalk examined him. He waved a friendly hand, wondered if any of them recognized him, tried to make out if any of them were old Hawkins’ High classmates. Most ignored him, glared at him angrily because the stop was a close call, one waved back. 
Pulling into a spot at the school, he tried to ignore his sweaty hands. He brushed them through his long locks before letting out a sigh when the BMW was put in park.
“Ready Haddie?”
Her brown eyes were big and wide with excitement or fear, Steve couldn’t tell. She nodded, pressed her nose up against the window, and squealed, “Ready Daddy!”
He helped her out of the car, watched her kick her feet as he knelt to put her down and just like that it was two points Haddie, zero points Steve. 
“Are you nervous duck?”
“What’s nervous?”
“Like being scared.”
“I’m not scared, Daddy.”
“Not about making friends or meeting your teacher?”
“Excited!” She squealed back and he knew saying goodbye would be harder for him than her. He watched in awe as her eyes lit up the closer they got. When she smiled, he smiled. His cheeks hurt, his shoulders loosened, and he peppered her rosy cheek with kisses just to hear that infectious giggle of hers.
And suddenly he didn’t care what people thought about him being back. It wasn’t his ego that led him back to Hawkins when figuring out the perfect place to build a home for himself and his daughter. Not only did he seek out a fresh start, but a place that was safe, where she could grow and learn and thrive. When he thought of that place he didn’t see California in his mind's eye, or Arizona where he’d stayed for a while, or anywhere on the east coast. 
He thought of home. 
Hawkins, Indiana. 
Even with all the demogorgons and demons, there was a network of people here who would love and protect Haddie. Love and protect him.
If they were still around. 
If they recognized him.
If… 
Maybe he should have told someone he was coming back instead of wondering if, and when, he’d run into someone familiar.
“Daddy, Daddy, look! Teacher!” The intensity in Haddie’s voice was impossible to ignore, the rhythm of it springy with excitement.
“Is that your teacher, huh? Let’s go meet her.” She clapped her hands, wiggling in his arms. “I wonder what her name is, huh?”
“Pretty dress.” Haddie clapped. 
In the process of the lengthy move, some of the documents had been misplaced, finding home somewhere on the kitchen table among unpacked boxes and empty take-out food containers. Feeling silly for not remembering his daughter’s teacher’s name, he waited until she was through talking with the other family. A quiet game of “I Spy” ensued, all his attention on Haddie, praying he was smart enough this time to even out the score. Nothing was strong enough to pull his attention away from the new game at hand except that voice.
The incessant one he had heard earlier that day. 
“Harrington.”
It had been a long time since someone called him that.
A delicate smile formed on her lips looking soft as rose petals. Bright as the sun, instantly making Haddie smile back.
“Me!” She shouted.
Silence lingered, though there was nothing left unsaid as eyes fell on each other, drinking the other in.
“So you must be the famous Haddie Harrington.”
“That’s me!” She clapped again, the look on her face proud. 
“It’s nice to meet you Haddie, I’m Miss. Y/N.”
“Hi,” she said, suddenly shy, curling further into her Daddy’s chest.
“Hi.” 
“Hi Harrington. Long time, no see.”
Suddenly, he felt a little closer to home.

Vowels for Cordelia and Ivy if you want!!
hell yeah! always happy to talk about my two favorite mage ocs <3
i accidentally wrote a lot about them, so i’m chucking it under a readmore ^^;;
ivy first-
A. what nicknames do they get called?
ivy ! tbh i keep forgetting that her actual name is ivanna
E. what is their love language?
physical touch! ivy stays close to those she cares about. she often follows them around without realizing it. she loves holding hands with cordelia and giving her little kisses on the forehead.
I. what makes them feel safe?
lorne makes her feel safe. he’s like a big brother (despite being younger lmao) that she knows would protect her to his last breath. once she gets closer to cordelia, that’s another person that makes her feel safe. ivy finds refuge in people more than anything else!
O. what motivates them?
she wants to get rid of the fear/superstition that always surrounds dark magic. it's banned throughout the country the story takes place in, and dark magic practitioners are feared and shunned by most.
about a third of the way through the story she’s in, ivy also gains the motivation to rescue her mentor, fiensal, when ydrenth captures him. 
U. what do they like to do in their spare time?
ivy loves exploring old ruins and observing wild creatures! ever since cordelia started teaching her how to fight unarmed, ivy has also started to practice for fun in her spare time.
Y. what physical object do they value most?
she really values fiensal’s grimoire. he gave it to her shortly before ydrenth captured him. it’s a well of knowledge and a deeply personal item. she tries not to read it. it feels like an invasion of his privacy even though he outright told her to study it. 
—-------
now for ydrenth! this one’s a little difficult because i just decided earlier today that she’s not getting a redemption arc.. here's Mean Ydrenth for u
A. what nicknames do they get called?
i’m not sure if it counts, but “the necromancer” is something she gets called pretty often lol
E. what is their love language?
ydrenth’s love language is words of affirmation. she likes to make the object of her affection feel like the most important person in the world. however, she has a mean streak and can quickly become very manipulative. ydrenth is 100% aware of her behavior and doesn’t care to fix it. she is not a good person.
I. what makes them feel safe?
her home/research facility is the only place she feels truly safe. only she knows where it is and how to get in it.
O. what motivates them?
ydrenth wants to rebuild the old world and shape it to her liking. she keeps herself alive by sapping the life from other creatures, but as time goes on, she needs more and more energy.. she's starting to fall apart. ydrenth's current goal is to obtain a dragon heart, which is rumored to grant immortality.
U. what do they like to do in their spare time?
ydrenth likes to read, conduct experiments (usually focused on dark magic), and observe the world to learn about how it's changed over the centuries. she also likes cooking wjdslfk, you get good at it when you live alone for a couple hundred years
Y. what physical object do they value most?
her most treasured possession is an old-world pistol that she found in some ruins. she carries it with her everywhere she goes. the new world has recovered and developed to the point of being able to make basic pistols, but they’re too weak and unreliable for her liking.
—-------
since this ask is about my ocs that use the most magic, i'm gonna throw in a bonus and add some context for how magic works in my story setting :-)
dark magic basically = radiation
in my story, magic came to earth (idk how yet lol). humans combined magic and science to study both. unfortunately, they went too far and caused a nuclear/magic catastrophe that wiped out most of civilization. the earth and everything on it was fundamentally changed. radiation warped to gain "magical" traits and dark magic was born :0 i know it isn’t realistic, but the idea was too fun for me to pass up !! plus nothing that has magic in it is going to be realistic anyways wsdfjlk
there are four races in my story- humans, elves, drakonians, and orcs. i could write actual essays about them.. anyways they were all created/influenced by magic & genetic engineering. humans and drakonians are resistant to dark magic, orcs are immune, and elves are very weak to it. however, even an elf is more resistant to radiation than an actual human on earth irl
dark magic can be used to cast incantations with “unnatural” effects: seeing through walls, healing injuries, creating undead, etc... there are a lot of creative uses for it that cause harm, but there's also a lot of potential to help others.
accepted types of magic include divine magic (very rare) and common elemental magic (fire/water/earth/wind/etc- used for mundane tasks like purifying water or generating electricity)

The Forbidding Five FEH Theorycrafting
OH BOY
We all love refines, and we want all our favorites heroes at be the best, but some heroes have been denied this gift. Today, in this blog, I will give my reasoning to why these 5 heroes have not gotten refines, despite how old they are. These 5 are not dancers/singer or 3/4 star staff units, which makes it even weirdier. For each, I will also give my idea for a refine if they must have one now.
Tumblr media
Hector: General of Ostia
Armads: Unit makes a guaranteed follow-up attack when attacked at HP ≥ 80%.
Pavise - Distant Counter - Goad Armor
Hector was a power house at launch, despite Armads having just Quick Repost 2. Now, this weapon is left unrefined and under powered, solely because Hector can evolve Armads into Berserker Armads from Hector's "Day of Devotion" alt, and then refine it again. For refences here's what normal Armads is up against.
Berserk Armads: "Accelerates Special trigger (cooldown count-1). At start of turn, if unit's HP ≤ 75% and unit's attack triggers Special, grants Special cooldown count-1, and deals +10 damage when Special triggers. If foe initiates combat or foe's HP = 100% at start of combat, inflicts Atk/Def-5 on foe during combat, and also, if unit deals damage to foe using a Special, restores 30% of unit's maximum HP. (Triggers even if 0 damage is dealt.)"
Many other heroes got the ability to evolve their weapons to match other alts, got their normal weapons refined, and then their evolved weapons refined. Hector missed that second part for unknown reason. My best guess is IS, at the time Seliph, Eliwood, and Ephriam, were getting refines, wanted players to inherit Vengeful Fighter to Hector, the better option for him, then evolve to Berserk Armads. It would be cheaper in Divine Dew to do evolve than refine the old version, but now it's more expensive to refine the new version. Why even bother?
With this in mind, normal Armads should not be better than Berserk Armads nor should it completely replace Vengeful Fighter.
"Grant Atk +3. If unit's HP ≥ 70% and foe initiates combat, unit makes a guaranteed follow-up attack. If foe initiates combat or if unit is not adjacent to allies, inflicts Atk/Def-6 on foe during combat, neutralizes unit's penalties on Atk/Def."
There, the base effect is just Quick Repost 3. The special effect is a foe initiating or solo condition to get more damage and take less damage. The solo is akin to the early game of Blazing Sword where Hector is doing extra chapters by himself (Mathew is there two but it's all Hector). This is no where as good as Special spamming but for a cheaper option, this can be a pass for most people.
Verdict: Just get Berserk Armads, don't wait for the refine.
Tumblr media
Reinhardt: Thunder's Fist
Dire Thunder: "Mt: 9 Inflict Spd-5. Attack twice when initiating combat."
Blazing Thunder - Vantage 3 - Goad Cavalry
If you found my blog, you must like FEH, and you must already know this man. He has a brave blue tome, he's a cavalry, and despite the low base stats, he has enough Atk combined with Death Blow 4 + 3 to 2 tap a about 2/3 of the cast. All this and he's 3-4 star. That last (accidently?) gift is why Dire Thunder is not getting a refine. He is so accessible to new players that they will rely on him to solve every, arena counter play will only consist to beat him (with most of those heroes being meta in their own right), and the new players will either get frustrated when their Reinhart gets beat, on they get beat by Reinhart. It's a hypothetical, but it's more IS don't want to buff him, but rather make new heroes that do a better job than him (cough Ninja Corrin).
So, if I have to buff him (and his sister, we'll get to her later), we can increase his damage and resistances, but we can't improve anything outside of his initial two tap. I got a suggestion for making Dire Thunder a duel phase brave tome, like Sword!Reinhart's weapon, as it would open him up to Close Counter Vantage, as weak as his defensives are. But not only would that make his enemy phase harder to counter, we don't even have one mage with a duel phase brave tome (there's some conditional braves, but none have the stats to be full enemy phase). Giving it to a 3-4 star would be dangerous. I also can't give him anything related to specials or follow-ups as there is enough good skills out there he can inherit or get from allies that would make him too powerful if stacked together.
One more advantage Reinhart has is Cavalry bonuses that gets to improve ally cavaliers and get bonuses for himself. Full cavalry teams were a popular noob stomping tactic that have been slowing down thanks to infantry and armours getting new abilities to counter sudden attacks, and trenches started showing up. That's not to say we don't have OP cavaliers, but we don't need all cavalry teams to come back.
So, my best idea for a fair refine is a really unfun one.
"At start of turn, if unit is within a 2 tile radius of an ally, grants Atk+6 to unit and allies within 2 spaces for 1 turn. Granted only if number of unit's or that ally's movement type on current team ≤ 2. . . ."
For the first effect part, it's what I'll call Joint Atk Tactic. If the team contains no more than 2 cavaliers (including Reinhart) they get Atk+6 when near Reinhart and Reinhart gets Atk+6 too. This combine with his already available Ward Calvary means only the one other Calvary will receive the benefits. Yes, Tactic skills do restrict the team available but at least that's not the only benefit.
". . . If unit initiates combat unit or a [Bonus] is active on unit, inflict Atk/Res -5 and Special Cooldown charge -1 to foe per attack during combat (Only highest value applied. Does not stack.)."
5 is the most amount of damage / RD I can give him, he would reach effectively 14 Mt, and would lower all range weapons to that 9 Mt. As for the Guard, apparently ranged units can't get Flow skills so this is a great ability to prevent special retaliation. It would not stop Breath, Tempo, Pre-Charged, Blades, or Special Fighters. It also won't stop power houses one shots, follow-up attacks, effective damage, stacks of Res, damage reduction, or Miracle.
Verdict: He's still the bang for your buck, don't expect a refine.
Tumblr media
Olwen: Blue Mage Knight
Dire Thunder: "Mt: 9 Inflict Spd-5. Attack twice when initiating combat."
Reposition - Warding Blow 3 - Ward Cavalry
Now, Olwen on the other hand, is another story. Olwen is a 5 star (4 star special) with 26 Atk and 34 Spd compared to Rein's 32 Atk and 23 Spd. While Rein can't follow-up attack, this Atk is enough to kill before a retaliation. Olwen has enough Spd and Res to stop follow-up attack and survive mage attacks, or follow-up herself, but that Atk isn't helping. With the same Death Blow 4 + 3, Olwen only beats . . . 50%, that's actually better than I thought.
What about Life and Death 4 + 3? Slightly better.
Okay, she's fine but a 5 star should be better than the demote version, right? Giving her the same refine as Reinhart will work well as surviving the foe's counter attack and allow for a follow-up attack (which would be 4 hits total, allow for a 2-4 specials to trigger). What we can do is give her true damage and ensure the follow-up attack. So, what do we do? Give her a new perf weapon! It's like Linus's Fanged Balisto.
Dire Thunderhead: Mt. 9 "Grants Spd + 4. Inflicts Def/Res - 4. If unit initiates combat, unit attacks twice."
Yeah, now is a good time to inherit Life and Death.
"At start of turn, if unit is adjacent to an ally, grants Atk/Spd+5 to unit and adjacent allies for 1 turn. . . ."
Remember how I said I don't want the cavalry meta to come back? Forget 'bout, give Olwen Fortify Calvary to buff the near by calvary a bunch and give herself the offensive bonus. It would be nice to make it two range or +6, but she still has another effect.
". . . If unit initiates combat or unit has [Bonus], grant Atk/Spd+5, increases damage by 50% of the total amount of bonuses on unit."
First, more Atk/Spd. Second, it's a blade tome that is half the effect. With the buffs she gets herself, it's 5 true damage, which is as much as the Finisher skills. Combine with a double rally or link skill, she would get a total bonus of 22, giving her 11 true damage per hit. And of course, the maximum amount of bonuses is 7 in each, 28 total, 14 true damage. This is something not even Ninja Corrin can do, but then again, she has 41 Atk, 40 Spd, and can get a max of 7 True damage from out speeding the opponent. Olwen is starting from 26 Atk. 14 + 26 is 40 and True Damage has the advantage of bypassing weapon triangle disadvantage and high Res, but she still not quite as good as N!Corrin since field bonus need to be have to team comp to facilitate. Also, N!Corrin has her Dou Skill.
Verdict: Stuck in shadow of her brother.
Man, I've been slacking on this batch. Let's split this up. What do this about these reasons for their lack of refines or these best case scenario refines. Also, care to guess the last two?

Update Post: About UTAU Wiki (Fandom), Altericide Official Website, Voicebank Progress
Greetings! It's a bit soon to post another update blog already, but since some things happened in only one week, we feel in the need to do this.
As always, here is a summary of topics covered:
The UTAU Wiki incident and our solution
Changes to the official website
Current voicebank progress, on hold voicebanks and more
As always, the full-detailed post is below the Read More.
1. The UTAU Fandom Wiki incident
Some of you may be completely unaware of what we are talking about. So here's what happened:
Tumblr media
We were the first ones to notice this and bring this issue to admins and friends. The pages were restored but we can't make sure that this issue won't happen again.
As we have said some times, we are working on a Wiki of our own. With this issue, the page creation became urgent. Right now we have all the archive pages, but not all of them are stylized to fit the Wiki's pages.
2. The Solutions to the UTAU Wiki Incident
So here is our solutions to prevent similar incidents in the future:
All the voicebanks will have their own wiki pages in our personal wiki.
All the voicebanks will have "archive links" in Nexys4t's UTAU repository.
All the voicebanks should have updated/created wiki pages in the following sites: voca.db, UTAU wiki 2.0
As well, we will search for other similar-topic Wikis in wich we can include our pages. This includes Spanish language wikis.
Sadly we won't reveal our Wiki name yet, at least not until it's finished. We apologize for the inconvenience.
3. Changes to our Official Website
As you have seen, our official website looks a bit... crowded. And this may be an inconvenience to many people.
As much as we like the current looks of our website, we also know that it might be hard to navigate or result in hard to read content, specially when there's so much text in the pages.
So we decided to remake our website almost from scratch. The current website as well as the early access website will still be up. But we will be working on a new separated one until it's ready, then we will take down the current website.
The new aesthetic will be aiming at a computer Operative System like Windows, Ubuntu or MacOS. Since now you can make little tabs in our website maker, we hope we can make a good use of that feature.
Hopefully we can organize things better without making the header menu a nightmare to navigate through. If there's a way to make little icons or put them in the footer while it stays as the user scrolls down, it will be great. We will also look into separating voicebanks by engine and including lateral menus to make navigation easier.
But we want to make sure that the Wiki and the current Voicebank are the priorities, so we will start with the website when those are finished.
You will have to stay a bit longer with the crowded design. Sorry!
4. Voicebanks: a full overview
Right now, we have various voicebanks:
Public release: AC, Heccan
Currently in development: Caché Völatta, Morpho Morphae
Development on hold: Destruction, Loop, Angel
Not started: Luminous, Wanderer, Porcelain, AC for Diffsinger
As you have seen, the voicebanks that have not been publicly revealed use a codename.
That makes a total of: 5 female voices, 3 male voices, and 3 androgynous voices. All of them are UTAU-OpenUTAU compatible except AC for Diffsinger, wich we are still debating if we will keep it as AC or make it a different voicebank. However, we are 100% sure that we want to make it usable on Diffsinger.
Now some progress report on Caché Völatta:
Artworks: 3 from 6 artwork done.
oto'ini: 3 from 7 pitches done.
1 pitch oto in progress.
0 from 5 Breath oto done.
That's it for today! Thank you for reading.

Midjourney Creates a Feature to Advance Image Consistency
Artificial intelligence imaging service Midjourney has been embraced by storytellers who have also been clamoring for a feature that enables characters to regenerate consistently across new requests. Now Midjourney is delivering that functionality with the addition of the new “–cref” tag (short for Character Reference), available for those who are using Midjourney v6 on the Discord server. Users can achieve the effect by adding the tag to the end of text prompts, followed by a URL that contains the master image subsequent generations should match. Midjourney will then attempt to repeat the particulars of a character’s face, body and clothing characteristics.
From MidJourney founder David Holz’s note about it:
… we’re testing a new “Character Reference” feature today This is similar to the “Style Reference” feature, except instead of matching a reference style it tries to make the character match a “Character Reference” image.
How it worksType  --cref URL  after your prompt with a URL to an image of a character
You can use  --cw  to modify reference ‘strength’ from 100 to 0
strength 100 (--cw 100) is default and uses the face, hair, and clothes
At strength 0 (--cw 0) it’ll just focus on face (good for changing outfits / hair etc)What it’s meant for
This feature works best when using characters made from Midjourney images. It’s not designed for real people / photos (and will likely distort them as regular image prompts do)
Cref works similarly to regular image prompts except it ‘focuses’ on the character traits
The precision of this technique is limited, it won’t copy exact dimples / freckles / or tshirt logos.
Cref works for both Niji and normal MJ models and also can be combined with --sref
Advanced FeaturesYou can use more than one URL to blend the information /characters from multiple images like this --cref URL1 URL2 (this is similar to multiple image or style prompts)How does it work on the web alpha?Drag or paste an image into the imagine bar, it now has three icons. selecting these sets whether it is an image prompt, a style reference, or a character reference. Shift+select an option to use an image for multiple categoriesRemember, while MJ V6 is in alpha this and other features may change suddenly, but V6 official beta is coming soon. We’d love everyone’s thoughts in ⁠ideas-and-features We hope you enjoy this early release and hope it helps you play with building stories and worlds

JOSH TAYLOR VS. JACK CATTERALL 2 MANCHESTER PRESS CONFERENCE QUOTES

Published: February 20, 2024
JOSH TAYLOR VS. JACK CATTERALL 2 MANCHESTER PRESS CONFERENCE QUOTES
  Eddie Hearn, Matchroom Sport Chairman:   "Welcome to Manchester for part two of a slightly lively press conference ahead of the British fight of the year, the rematch between Josh Taylor and Jack Catterall, April 27 in Leeds. We have a night that you are not going to forget.    "The controversy of the first fight will be settled in an unbelievable night live and exclusive on DAZN around the world, part of your subscription on the global home of boxing."
  Josh Taylor:   "I’m looking forward to getting this fight done. The first one is done, he couldn’t beat me the first time and he certainly won't beat me this time, so I’m looking forward to it. "It’s been a long two years coming. We tried to get the fight done straight away and it never happened, the mandatory then came in. But we’re here now, there’s no point in keeping on talking about what happened, we’re going to settle the score on April 27.You need to have a word with your man, that’s three times he’s tried to put his hands on me, he’s meant to be a professional athlete. Keep your hands to yourself you little rat.    "It is must-win, it’s a crossroads fight for us both, when I beat him this time again, he’s got nowhere to go. His biggest night is me and when I beat him again, he’ll have nowhere to go and he’ll retire without a prime, with no belts and he’ll never be a World champion.    "You’re in the wrong game if you don’t believe in yourself, so of course he’ll think that, but he’s never knocked anyone out in his life, not anyone credible.     "On April 27, I end Jack Catterall’s career, one that he never got going, and he’ll never be a World champion."    Joe McNally:    "I’m 100 per cent confident in Josh. the first fight was a cracker and I just hope that we get the opportunity for Josh to showcase his skills, Jack with his counter-punching and we have the right official, so there’s no holding and clinching and they let the fight flow. If we get that, we’ll get a good fight and we’ll be in for a good night.    "We’re in professional boxing, small gloves, anyone can be knocked out, but Jack isn’t a knockout puncher and that’s a fact. He couldn’t get an old, shot Jorge Linares out of there, so to think he’s going to get Josh out of there? Not a chance. I just hope he performs and he’s ready because he’s with a fantastic team, because Josh will be ready, may the best man win and we’re really confident.    "There were a few things that needed addressing in the camp with Teofimo, I personally think we shouldn’t have gone ahead with the fight off the injury that he had. But it was one of those fights that a round here or there, we wouldn’t be sitting here right now, he’d be fighting a Devin Haney or Gervonta Davis. We never got the decision so we’re sitting here because of Josh, not Jack, that’s a fact. I’m excited for it and to go into this one all guns blazing."   Tom Grant:    "This is what it’s about, these domestic dust-up are what the fans come out for. All that matters is what happens on April 27 now, and that is that Josh Taylor is going to beat Jack Catterall on April 27 and all these people are going to struggle watching it."      Jack Catterall:   "I want to thank everybody that has come out today. It’s an exciting fights, it gets the juices flowing, it’s been talked about for the last two years and it’s the same for Josh, everyone always asking when the rematch is, so it’s good to have the rematch locked in, and I’m ready to settle it.    "You know what it is, they’ve said it’s the England vs. Scotland heritage, but it’s more of me just fighting a pr*ck. He’s just not a nice person. That’s it.    "I know what lies ahead of me. As much as we have the press conferences and the weigh-ins, I have a job to do on April 27. I’m preparing for the best of Josh Taylor, so when I beat him and do it convincingly, I can move on with my career.     "I think he’s there to be beaten and I’ve got his number, and it’s only a matter of time before he touches the canvas again. Can we get some more tickets for the fight Eddie, please? We’ve had a great response and that’s expected with a big domestic fight, so I’m very grateful for everyone’s support. "Josh, you are finished after this fight. In nine weeks' time, we get to put him to bed." Jamie Moore:    "I’ve always been a big believer in Jack, I’ve always said the day that he came into our gym that he would be a World champion. I’ve just done loads of interviews and basically said the same thing, this is such a good fight because it’s been created by that narrative. It was a controversial decision in the first fight, and the vast majority thought Jack won. The two years in between has created a better story and made people more interested in it now than when it first should have taken place six months afterwards.    "You have kept Jack busy, he’s active and that’s the main thing that’s not been good for him over the last five years. He’s always in the gym. Josh has had that one loss, but I don’t buy into the fact that he’s on the slide because he’s lost to Teofimo Lopez because he’s an unbelievable fighter. So, we’re going into the fight knowing we’re going to get the best version of Josh Taylor because it’s such a grudge match and we’re going to train hard for it.    "The first fight is irrelevant now, all that matters is what happens on April 27."   Sam Jones:   "Yesterday we were in the great city of Edinburgh, and it is a great city, but it’s not a patch on Chorley. I didn’t hear what Tom said yesterday, he mentioned Ben Shalom for some reason, but they have a bit in common, they both got the charisma of the weather outside.     "It’s a fantastic fight, we’ve got two of the best trainers in the country up here today, all I want is for Josh not to make any excuses. He demanded it to be at 140lbs, I think that is a ready-made excuse right there, but it’s just a fantastic fight, British boxing needs rivalries like this, with two great fighter, one former undisputed champion and one guy that should have been undisputed, and it’s going to be a great fight, and as I said yesterday, Jack Catterall is going to whoop Josh Taylor on April 27."

TGIWednesday: The owl winked & it blended into ONE
Tumblr media
TGIWednesday News
It seems like a lifetime ago when my father dragged my brother and I hunting and fishing worldwide.  On one such outing, we were on our farm in North Florida where there were plenty of wild turkeys and deer.  On this particular day I was reluctantly tasked with cleaning out the deer stands.  And if you didn’t do it to Father’s approval, he might make you help him take his belt off or go get him a switch in the woods!  Well there was no way on a sunny, yet chilly, afternoon that I wasn’t going to take in the fresh air and liveliness of the forest sights and sounds.  Standing in a tree stand, I noticed an owl perched on a limb a few trees away.  He was so beautiful; I just starred at him.  At some point he winked and for me everything in all directions switched to what looked like a blended kaleidoscope of fall colors.  It was as if all colors blended into a fabric where everything was seen as interconnected.  My first thought was, "Man this is wildly cool," followed by my second thought of static terror thinking, "I hope I come back out of this!"   What lasted only about 10 seconds felt like an hour, but as fast as it happened, it snapped back to a reality that made more sense!  Still in my early 20’s, I will never forget this event or the lesson of how interconnected EVERYTHING is.  Stay Tuned... When did we last have a session together?  If the answer is too long ago, get on the schedule today...  Let’s do this!

~ ALL THINGS BLENDING INTO ONE  ~ I believe, think, know and feel that every aspect of this world, all others and even my very own little world, are all interwoven and connected. I know, when, where, how and why to remember that I am part of a tapestry of life and that we are all a collective consciousness of powerful force. I am ready, willing and able to be more positive knowing that it’s not the destination but the journey & that we should enjoy contributing in any way we can to others for the benefit of all. I am asking in all languages and throughout all time lines and so it is.  Making a little daily progress will cause the rest of your life to be the best of your life!
On Deck... What is Life Force Energy?
We’ve done a ton of fishing on word tracks, affirmations and clearing negative and downloading more positive and - oh my goodness - what amazing effects we’ve seen and experienced!  But what about numbers? Numbers you ask?... Yes numbers!  Sitting next to someone on a plane who does not speak or understand your language - if you write down 2 + 2 = ___  they will write down 4.
Tumblr media
Everything can be broken down into the language of numbers and those numbers measure Life Force Energy - positive vs negative, flow vs block.  So what Spirit came up with and gave to me to give to you, along with the concept of fishing, is to use numbers as a percentage of strength or weakness. How weak are your eyes from 0-100%?  Let’s erase those blocks.  Are there blocks in your finances?  If so, on a scale of 0-100% what’s the percentage of the block or the flow?  How about being chosen for a new job? Or whether we’ll have a baby or not? What are the strengths and weaknesses of the percentage of probability? We can change them!    We’re going to simplify and show you how to get even MORE results out of your fishing and show you how to DECREASE taking on blocks and INCREASE your energetic flow.  We will address with finger muscle testing, pendulums and of course standing sway testing. Stay tuned for this ingenious way to get even more results and amazing outcomes!  It will be in our new Masterclasses Training Center taught in written, audio and video lessons.

  Hi Jimmy. You did two readings for me in Feb. and March. I was very worried I had lung cancer or some other cancer because of a pain in my back. Both of your readings you didn't pick up on anything and said "nothing catastrophic" that became my mantra. Well I finally went to the doctor and had a series of screenings. You were right. I thought you should know that. I do have severe arthritis of the lumbar spine but everything else was clear. Thank you for all you do. - Kathy S.
