Here are some of my designs of the Clone High Next Gen Kids.

I might post some facts about each one individually, but in the meantime you can post a question or dare for them in the comments or give them asks. Until then, enjoy!

Top 5 Fate blorbos NOT including Limbo.

this one made me laugh bc like, yeah limbo is my special little princess but also he is one of my many special little princesses, like i love limbo but im not The Limbo Guy, if that makes sense (i have many guys)

That said there are simply too many fate blorbos i have and no easy way to list them in a perfectly objective top 5, so I shall do something fun instead, listing them in tiers. As expected, the list expands as it goes on (not every servant listed obvs)

5. Characters who I am passively aware of. This is for characters who are somewhat relevant enough for me to like. think about

Gilles Saber, Caesar, Paris Hektor, Circe, Lu Bu, Spartacus, Eric Bloodaxe

4. Characters who I have a light inclination towards. Maybe they were useful for farming or I read their profiles and was satisfied

Jason, Billy The Kid, Oda Nobukatsu, , Tristan, William Tell, Medusa Lily, Janta Lily, Tawaru, Achilles, Wu Zetian, Cleopatra, Darius III, Kiyohime

3. Characters who I just like. I look at them and go "its the guy :)"

Senji Muramasa, Fergus, Robin Hood, Leonidas, Enkidu, Nezha, Anne-Bonny & Mary Read, Bartholomew Roberts, Red Hare, Scheherazade, Anastasia, Kyokutei Bakin, Charles-Henri Sanson, Assassin Emiya/Kerry, Ushiwakamaru, Gray, Huyan Zhuo, Penthesilea, Kijyo Koyo, Asterios

2. Characters who I love. This one is a substantial jump upwards in quality and they only have like 1-2 things missing (to me) that prevent them from being numero uno

Altera, Bedivere, Okita, Beni Enma, Sigurd, Saito Hajime, Artemis-Orion, Emiya, Atalante, Baobhan Sith, Cu Chulainn, Romulus (and Quirinus), Caenis, Vritra, Melusine, Boudica, Marie Antionette, Mandricardo, Habetrot, Dobrynya Nikitich, Hans Christian Andersen, Mata Hari, Charlotte Corday, Katou Danzo, Koyanskaya of the Light, Tezcatlipoca, Sen no Rikyu, Kriemhild, Koyanskaya of Darkness

@4fter-hours continued from here : x

"Hmmmm~" She mimicked his hum, pretending as if there was much of a choice. While she enjoyed Van Gogh and his works, she was more of a Titian fan. "I'll take the chick with a knife one. I can't use it in a hospital, that's probably not very baby mama friendly. But when i'm feeling feisty -" She turned and poked his side swiftly, over and over with her pointer fingers, until she made her point. "Stab, stab, stab, goodnight Caesar."

.Sunflower. Clone High//Van Gogh x Reader

Van Gogh x Reader

A/N: It’s been a while hasn’t it?

Word Count: 1957

As a photographer, you saw the world in frames, scenes that were waiting to be captured. Sometimes, if you had the chance, after you’ve taken some photos, you’d return home and use them as references for your sketches. Most of them were of nature scenes or cities, but a decent size of your photos were of people. Most were of students at Clone High while the rest were of people you’d see on the streets, but recently you’re Nikon’s been filled with one person in particular. 

He was an odd choice and even you couldn’t explain why he had caught your eye, but your new subject was none other than Van Gogh. 

Call yourself strange or weird, but Van Gogh was generally just…handsome in your eyes. He was petite and short in height, yet he stood out in a crowd with his bright, orange hair and those striking celeste blue eyes. Many of your photos of him were taken from a distance and without him knowing, so he’s not even facing the camera in them. But the few that you did have where he was looking at the camera, where he was smiling, you cherished and often redrew. 

Along with photographing him, however, you began to photograph the things he likes, mainly sunflowers. Before, you never really cared much for sunflowers; they were just another flower to you. However, after meeting Van Gogh and learning his love for sunflowers, you gained a new admiration for them. 

Speaking of which, you were photographing a wheat field that had sunflowers scattered about in it -- you had found it after speaking to Van Gogh and finding out that that was one of his favorite places to just hang out -- when inspiration had struck. 

You were currently working on a piece for Van Gogh himself. You had heard from a little birdie -- that birdie being Joan -- that his birthday was coming up, so you decided to make him something. 

It wasn’t much, just a collage of a sunflower field that you made using the pictures of sunflowers you had with Van Gogh in the center (using, of course, one of the less creepy, stalkerish pictures of him). You had originally wanted to paint it but your painting skills were…less than desirable, so you stuck with something you knew you could do well. 

You had finished it a few days before his birthday and were quite proud of it. You wrapped it and waited for the day to come.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Time flew by and his birthday was today. Joan had informed you that her and Caesar were going to visit him and had invited you to join, which you hastily agreed to. The only problem is that you had to stay after school that day to help out the freshmen in photography (since none of the other juniors would do so). 

Joan had asked where you were and you quickly sent her a text explaining that you were stuck with the freshmen and would be there as soon as you could be. Turns out the soonest you could be there was way after they had their gathering, close to 8 pm. You had told Joan to let Van Gogh know that you’d still stop by to see him. 

True to your word, after closing up the photography classrooms and making sure all the freshmen had gone back to their dorms, you went back to the student dorms and made your way to the 4th floor, where Joan and told you his room was. 

Collage in hand, you knocked on his door hoping that you weren’t waking him. You didn’t know how early, or late, he went to bed. After a moment the door opened and Van Gogh was there, looking up at you. 

“Oh, there you are,” He began, “I was wondering if you were coming at all.” 

“Sorry,” You said with an apologetic smile, “I got stuck helping the freshmen out in photography. No one else wanted to do it so I was left to.” 

“You’re fine. I remember earlier this year, I spent 5 hours helping some of the sophomores in painting I. It was…not all that fun.” He said with a small smile. You laughed at that and he soon laughed with you. 

“Did you want to come in?” He asked after the two of you had calmed down some. You shifted on your feet before answering, 

“Only if it’s okay with you.” 

“Oh it’s more than okay with me,” Van Gogh said, opening the door wider and moving to the side to let you in. Doing your best to keep your face neutral at that comment, you walked in and sat in an offered chair in his kitchen. 

Van Gogh followed suit, grabbing two waters from his fridge and giving one to you. You thanked him as he sat down in the chair across from you. The two of you were quiet for a moment before you spoke. 

“Sorry again for coming so late,” You began, “I really did mean to come here while the others were here.” You looked down at your hands where they were folded on the table. 

“And again, it’s fine,” Van Gogh said, making you look up, “I of all people know how difficult it can be when it comes to helping lower class men.” 

You smiled at his understanding before asking, 

“What did you guys do anyways?” 

“Not much,” Van Gogh said, “We just talked and listened to music while we painted. It really was nice; normally I spend my birthday alone.” 

“Paintings. Crap your gift…stupid.” 

“I’m glad to hear you had a good time, and before I forget,” You said, placing your gift on the table and sliding it over to him, “Here’s your gift, for me to you.” You finished with a smile. Van Gogh took your gift with a smile. 

“Aw, you didn’t have to.” He said, running his fingers over the wrapping. 

“I know I didn’t have to, but I wanted to,” You said, rubbing your upper arm, “Now, open it!” 

“Now?” 

“Yeah now.” 

Van Gogh began opening it, gently removing the wrapping paper instead of tearing it. He placed the paper on the table and his face contorted when he looked down at the collage. 

At first you thought he didn’t like it, but that thought subsided when you noticed how his mouth opened slightly and blue eyes widened, tears beginning to brim at the corners. He sniffled and that’s when you spoke up.

“Hey,” You called out softly, “Are you…” 

“I’m okay.” He said, “I just-” He cut himself off by covering his mouth. He looked away from you, doing his best to not cry in front of you. You remained quiet, waiting for him to calm down. You were concerned, but you waited patiently. 

“I love it,” Van Gogh said after a moment, “I’m sorry, I just…” He said, covering his hand against his mouth. He stood up, walking over to you and hugging you. You hugged him back, wrapping your arms around him and resting your head on his shoulder. 

“I’m always making art for other people,” He said into your shoulder, “No one’s ever made something like this for me. Thank you.” You smiled. 

“You’re welcome.” You whispered before he pulled away, wiping his eyes with the palm of his hand. 

“Sorry,” Van Gogh said, looking over to where the collage was still sitting on the table, “It really is a beautiful piece.” He sat back down where he was a moment before, looking over the collage in more detail. 

“I’m glad you like you,” You said with a smile, “I had to go through multiple flash drives in order to find good enough photos for this, so I’m glad my effort didn’t go to waste.” He didn’t say anything, simply looking over the collage more, but you didn’t mind. After a moment, Van Gogh’s face scrunched up and he looked up at you asking, 

“Are these…from the wheat field? The one with the sunflowers that I told you about?” You felt your face flush and you looked away from him. 

“Some of them, yeah,” You answered, “How could you tell?” 

“Here, look,” He said, waving you over, “This sunflower, the one that’s got the tiny center, is from the field. So is this one with the orange petals aaaand…so are these ones, the little siamese ones.”  He pointed to each sunflower and, sure enough, those were in fact the ones from the field. 

“You’ve got a good eye, Van Gogh.” You said surprised. 

“So do you,” Van Gogh said, looking up, “Most people would use the ‘normal’ looking ones but you chose the ones that were different. Why?” He asked. 

You thought for a moment before answering, 

“Well, I just thought of the person I was giving it to,” You started, which seemed to peak his interest, “You’re different. You’re somewhat ‘ratty’ looking, but you’re not gross. You’re -- despite how cheesy this is going to sound -- unique, and that’s what I like about you. That’s… was looking for in the flowers.” You quickly added onto the end. You felt your face burn as you finished explaining this, and you hoped to God that he didn’t notice the heat rising to your face. 

Van Gogh smiled softly, running his fingers over the work. 

“Thank you, Y/N,” He whispered, “I really appreciate this.” He looked up at you and you felt your heart melt at the smile on his face. It made all those late nights worth it. 

“You’re welcome.” You choked out. He stood up, walking deeper into his room and placing the collage and paper on, what you presumed to be, his desk. He ran his hand over the gift one more time before saying, 

“Damn I miss the field; I haven’t been there in a while.” He walked back over to where you were standing at the table. 

“Hey, I have tons of images of the field,” You said, “Did you want to see them?” You asked, holding your camera up. 

“Only if you want to.” He answered. You sat back down at the table, Van Gogh to your left, as you turned your Nikon on. 

The two of you then spend the next two hours or so flipping through the pictures you had taken of the field, along with some of the students, plants, and other landscapes while talking about whatever came to mind. 

You had only noticed how late it had become when Van Gogh pointed it out to you. 

“It’s past 10, I don’t want to keep you any longer than necessary.” Van Gogh said while he stood up. You followed suit and let him lead you to the door. “It was really nice having you over, even just for a few hours.” 

“Thanks for having me,” You said as you opened the door to leave, “Oh and before I forget,” You said turning back around. 

“Wha-” Van Gogh started but quickly stopped when he felt you soft, yet chapped, lips pressed against his forehead. 

“Happy birthday, Vincent.” You said quickly, pulling away when he just stood there and turning to leave. You had walked out the door, worried that you had made a mistake, before hearing Van Gogh call out to you. 

“Wait!” You quickly turned around and before you had time to think, Van Gogh had pressed a kiss to your cheek. You noticed that he was on his tippy-toes and that fact alone made you smile. He pulled away saying, 

“Goodnight, Y/N,” He smiled up at you and the pink-peach color that spread across his face was absolutely beautiful. 

“See you tomorrow,” You smiled, turning back around and closing the door to his dorm.

This is the er uh, the big gig. Badabing Badaboom.

Figured I’d work a lil bit on my writing and post the fanfics that I know everyone has been waiting for on Wattpad and AO3. The only ships I will write for are Caesar x Van Gogh, Cleo x Joan, Joan x JFK, and Abe x the fiery pits of hell ^^ (sorry Abe stans, he ain’t my cup of tea). But most fanfics will be x reader because, we all know at least to some degree we’re either here for Cleo’s beauty tips and spoiling, Joans sarcastic remarks and making fun of the fact you’re taking history notes on yourself, or JFK’s sweet juicy a $ $. When it comes to x reader, I’ll write for any character requested, that includes Abe and Gandhi. So, send requests whenever y’all~

CART Weekly Report 7/18/19

MORE STORE CLOSINGS COMING: AN ESTIMATED 12,000 SHOPS COULD CLOSE BY THE END OF 2019 | USA Today

Gary’s Take: A recent report from Coresight Research states that 2019 store closings are already ahead of last year by 20%; they estimate store closures could reach 12,000 by the end of the year. UBS Securities estimate that 75,000 stores could close by 2026 if ecomm sales rise to 25% of retail from current level of 16%. The supermarket channel has largely escaped any significant closings thus far but I do not expect this to continue as online grocery continues to grow and disruption continues sweeping the industry. As happened in the mid 1990s when Walmart entered grocery, triggering a wave of consolidation as bigger players sought to scale up to compete, independent and smaller regional retailers are going to take the brunt of the hit as they can't keep up with tech innovation and investment. Smaller retailers must quickly find a way to truly differentiate themselves if they have a hope of surviving. The alternative is either going out of business or becoming a glorified convenience store as primary grocery sales are rolled up by the bigger players.

PERSONALIZATION MATTERS: HERE ARE 5 GREAT EXAMPLES | Smart Design World

Gary’s Take: Personalization in retail is rapidly becoming a customer expectation and a need-to-have by retailers. Like other terms that become 'hot', personalization is the latest overused buzzword. The scary part is that many retailers are not experts in this space and can fall prey to 'personalization' capabilities that are really not. I would suggest that retailers should really be focusing on providing contextual relevancy that goes beyond pure personalization and focuses on providing meaningful messaging (recipes, savings, new product intro, etc.) to each customer. And, like some of the examples in this article, state of the art is realtime relevancy. This is very challenging to do and is dependent on deep integration between digital touchpoints and a relevancy engine that processes in realtime.

FLORIDA’S DMV IS SELLING DRIVERS’ PERSONAL INFORMATION TO BILL COLLECTORS AND DATA BROKERS | Fast Company

Gary’s Take: Data privacy? Really? A recent investigation by ABC affiliate has just found that Florida's DMV has been selling license data to bill collectors and data brokers. This while governments - from state to federal - are increasingly inserting themselves into the ongoing privacy debate. Data privacy is an issue that continues to percolate, boiling over periodically as malfeasance by Facebook or assorted app providers comes to light. I do believe that privacy is going to become an increasingly important issue that is going to threaten digital advertising and marketing initiatives. Retailers would be well served to really focus on driving comprehensive digital engagement with their shoppers ASAP to build their repository of first-party data for the future. 

WHAT MAKES GREAT RETAIL LEADERS | RetailWire

Sterling’s Take: Having a CEO that exemplifies what the company stands for and puts themselves on the line for significant positive change is key to culture. And culture is the key to everything (what it’s like to work there, why everyone is there and what new ideas come up/are embraced, etc). Supporting those same traits amongst the team is a success recipe that transcends any strategy, technology or trend.

WHO OWNS CUSTOMER SERVICE IN AN AGE OF CO-BRANDING | RetailWire

Sterling’s Take: The responsibility for customer service comes down to the person standing in front of the customer (or on the phone with them). It’s definitely a growing issue with all the co-branding and partnerships and ultimately retailers need to ensure great customer service, no matter what agreements are in place behind the scenes. The co-branding can only be as great as the service and customer experience they can provide.
