Prisoner 006, Yoshioka Eiko, is officially voted..

Guilty! (75%)

OKAY. OKAY THIS WAS. UNEXPECTED. i genuinely thought eiko is gonna be voted inno again?? :'D like i actually tried to make her look more sympathetic when i wrote her mv, like "hey ik she dismembered a guy but look. she was struggling okay" and i thought her vd would also show that side of her and. WOW.

and as you can probably guess from that, her trial 2 canon verdict was supposed to be innocent, which is so funny to me bc her season 1 canon verdict was actually supposed to be guilty so it's like. we got a completely opposite version of the canon route jdkslssl.

so uhhh congrats eiko, you're the second official member of the t2 guilty squad! and who knows what's gonna happen to naomi..

El Cazador De La Bruja ep 11 aka God Forbid Women Do Anything! Let's get to it!

Sadly, Camera Guy is all caught up to our girls now. Get him out! At least we saw him in cat ears and got a good laugh out of it... well, would've, if we weren't so focused on being scared for our girls. Thankfully, we did see Big Guy (I finally remember his name is Ricardo, yay!) and Lirio partake in the cat ears, which was sweet!

We've finally found our equivalent of Les Soldats from Noir and Enfant from Madlax! This one seems to be run by women though, so that's a certified feminism win. Office Lady is in cahoots with them, so I can't wait to see how that plays out.

Our episode character of the day was a woman who can see other people's memories. She saw what happened with Ellis and the doctor, but refused to tell us, the audience! Rude! She's also a scam artist, and a sad character. In the end, she girlbossed too close to the sun and got taken out by the Council. RIP to a real one.

Ellis and Nadie... girls are gay *sighs dreamily*. First, Ellis jokingly sang the little taco song, which prompted Nadie to look at her like this:

She then started laughing, and Ellis laughed along and looked at her like this.

I would do anything for them, can you tell?

[hydrangeawise]

Alright, EP11 of El Cazador de la Bruja really did add some spice to the story!

Shoutout to the Psychic Lady (whose precise name I've already forgotten, I'm so sorry) for making Ellis and Nadie wear cat ears, that was delightful! She really got caught up in Ellis' whole thing as much as the girls got caught up in her witch act and the consequences of it (goodness, why can't they just let a woman have fun with her scam in peace?). It was fun to get to know Psychic Lady (and the inside knowledge of her witch scam; I too would make a goddess out of my beloved cat for a witch scam) and interesting to compare her to Ellis. She was so lonely, too! Asking Ellis to stay with her forever without even knowing her or anything about her situation really spoke for itself in my opinion. But the supernatural powers aside, there was not much she and Ellis had in common. Their personalities and take on life are very different; where Ellis is learning and exploring, Psychic Lady was still clinging to happier times of the past and let herself be guided by chances of maybe getting some parts of these happier times back. It was very unfortunate for her that in trying to use Ellis, or rather her past, to do so was what brought her down in the end. She, in @yokoya-sapphics 's words "girlbossed too close to the sun" and I do agree with that sentiment.

That aside, a somewhat new major player got introduced in the form of the council! (Maybe it is even The Council, maybe that's just their name, who knows!) They, or some of their members, give me distinct Enfant/Weekday Guy vibes with how they want to destroy Ellis simply because they think she's going to turn into a disaster for the way she is. It seems that they are not working with Glasses Guy, but Jody is apparently involved with them or part of them, which makes me curious if Glasses Guy has some sort of bigger organisation at his back as well or if he's just out there, doing his own thing. (I cannot wait to meet the other long-haired lady in the next episode though!) That some members of the Council just took steps to take Ellis out by themselves is a bit worrying. Now the girls not only have Camera Guy to worry about, but also the Shadow Guys (once they make themselves known that is), and I suppose to and extent Ricardo (shoutout again to Lirio for being an excellent assistant once again. I cannot believe Camera Guy went "Must have been another guy" simply because Ricardo had Lirio with him. I hope he never makes the connection between Ricardo and Lirio, it's bad enough that he is out for Ellis. I can only do some much frothing at the mouth because of rage with that guy, and should he set his eyes on Lirio as well, I'm simply going to implode out of a mixture of disgust and fury). Nadie is going to have her hands full! She already does with Ellis, I suppose, but given that she almost knocked herself out with a rug this episode, I am a little worried for the future!

Thank you for humoring my fascination with the yj animoprhs au :) Could you talk more about Taissa and how she's affected by everything happening? How does she reconcile her need for control and solutions with such a complicated and chaotic (not to mention seemingly endless) war? Does her fugue self make an appearance? Thank you!

thank you for humoring ME by enabling this nonsense! <3

anyways, happy taissa tuesday to you and yours. dear, sweet, precious tai. constantly girlbossing too close to the sun.

the thing about tai is that she likes to stuff all her problems into a box and shove them into a dark corner and pretend they don't exist.

taissa likes to think she's got it all under control. her peers elected her student council secretary, and her soccer coach passed the captainship to her after jackie was declared presumed deceased. she's maintaining a 4.0 GPA, and howard university, her dream school, is offering her a handsome scholarship and a position on their first division ncaa soccer team. oh, and she's running military tactics for an underground guerilla war on top of all that. she's doing fine. no, not just fine, she's doing GREAT. you'd think a war would be a natural habitat for a control freak, and that's probably what tai would say if someone asked.

she reads sun tzu's the art of war from cover to cover, and then she reads it again. then, she moves on to the works of machiavelli. she studies military treatises from every era, and she jots down all her thoughts alongside her notes on defensive and offensive soccer formations. she tries to convince herself that leading a team of soccer players and leading a team of soldiers aren't entirely two different ballgames.

sometimes, after practice, she and van will rendezvous in a locker room shower stall. van will press her against the cold tile wall, and tai will card her fingers through van's matted hair, and neither of them will say anything after they're done making out.

the problems can't stay in the box forever. her grades start slipping. she fumbles what should've been an easy pass during a game. she can't avoid the nightmares that wait for her every time she closes her eyes. if they botch a mission and something goes wrong, they get even worse. she's slipping, and she's too proud to ask for help.

she thinks nobody notices, but van does. it's the littlest things that she notices, like when a little part of her blouse isn't perfectly tucked into her jeans. or during ben's health class, when she starts scribbling in the margins of her notebook instead of actually taking notes - that's when van knows something's absolutely not right, and the minute the bell rings she drags tai towards the locker room.

"van, what? we can't be here - do this - not right now -"

"that's not why we're here." van locks the door to the shower stall behind her and folds her arms across her chest. "you can't keep going like this, tai. we have to talk about it."

and finally, the walls start to crumble.

okay now that THAT'S out of my system, onto the other question: i am not sure if i will be incorporating Other/Fugue Tai into this story yet. if i do, want to make sure i handle it right. sorry i cant give you a better answer than that!

anyways. thanks for the ask!!! i could literally talk about this au all day

329.

i may have girlbossed a little too close to the sun this weekend.

first of all, i've been out every night since thursday? truly only family (including chosen) could make me do a triple night out, my god.

thursday i went to dinner and a play with my parents. which was a real sweet time. took them to my favorite halal cafe up the street from me and then went to see 'the wash' at synchronicity theater. my mom knows the playwright and i believe this was her first major production, if i'm not mistaken. her mom and mine have been friends since we were in elementary school so we've kinda grown up adjacent to one another? anyway, it was really good and i'm both proud and inspired. i keep thinking about what it took for her to get her script onto a stage and wow. being a creator is unlike anything.

that night was quaint and slow, 8/10. -2 cause i started my period and i was unprepared like fuck. i had on cream pants too, wtf was i thinking? but everything worked out. pants still intact. i'm too grown for that type of miscalculation lmao.

earlier in the week pro called me and said that she wanted to take coco to the strip club since she was going to be proposing on saturday. i agreed because, sure. when she called on friday though, we thought maybe bowling would be more coco's speed. coco loves bowling lol. so i thought that's what we had agreed on. i pull up to pro's and i'm there for like two hours before coco, her brother, and nia pop up. turns out.. we hitting the booty club. my god.

being sober in the booty club is wild as fuck. a first for me. it turned out to be a good time though, can't lie. i hadn't been since like 2018 when i used to perform at onyx on mondays. we all sat at the bar, settled in, they all pregamed before and resumed drinking once we got there. me? water on the fucking rocks. i didn't plan on doing anything forreal, i just came to support coco and be with the homies. i took out $100 and didn't even plan to spend it all. we on a budget round these parts baby.

but then i saw this one dancer LOL.

she was on the stage wearing this black fishnet bodysuit. she had a white satin bow in her head fastening a long black ponytail. she was wearing two pearl strand necklaces too. idk but the pearls really set it off for me. she looked like an amalgamation of all the brownskinned 90's sitcom actresses. i kept my eye on her for a while til coco caught on and called her over to me for a dance. this nigga lol. the dance was good. awkward because i didn't count on having a strangers bare ass in my lap when i was at work earlier that day, plus i was sober so i was just very aware of it all lol. but she was bad so i threw the money. when in rome, y'know. at one point she had her legs on my shoulders and i'm just staring into her pussy. like do i ask her name? hahaha.

when she was done, i felt bad that she had to pick up all the ones i threw so i bent down and started helping her. she thanked me and i thanked her for the dance.

the night pretty much went like that. i got a dance, coco got a few, nia and pro too. hookah and wings were bought. drinks for them. water for me.

around 2am, i'm thinking we're all on the same wave of winding down and calling an uber but no. that's when coco's other bff rolls in. and she is LIT. it's like she put a battery pack in everyones back lol cause niggas went BACK to the atm and did it all over again. we didn't leave til 4. when i tell you it took everything in me to stay awake omg. it felt like purgatory. there's only so much ass and titties i need to see before i simply don't give a fuck anymore, man.

the music was loud. the smoke was thick and cloudy. i got wing sauce on my seafoam sneakers. we stood outside for like half an hour waiting on an uber.

but coco had a good time and that's what matters. not my old cranky sober ass lmao.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

i woke up with the craziest headache man. and i still got it a whole day and a half later. and i ain't even DO NUN. sober hangovers are so dumb lol. i heard em mentioned in podcasts and was like "no way" but yea... definitely a thing.

saturday was the suprise engagement. we all got to the claremont early. the decorations were so cute. we mingled and baked in the sun while we awaited the fiance-to-be to arrive.

it all went down so beautifully. i cried as soon as she turned that corner lol.

i can't believe my friend is engaged. like i can because she's been talking about it forever but i still CAN'T believe the quiet lil 19yo i met on church street in decatur all those years ago is now ready and willing to tie the knot.

emotionalllllll. i'm so happy for her.

the night ended with everybody drunk and annoying lol so i dipped. at one point i was holding two drinks in my hand and even though i knew i wasn't going to drink them... i feel like i shouldn't be putting myself in those types of predicaments regardless. like, it just felt unnecessary and it started making me anxious.

anyway, now my sleep schedule is all fucked up. getting older is a trip lol. i'm good on socializing and staying out all night for a good minute tbh.

but aside from that, so thankful for my friends. so thankful.

if you're reading this, hey!

-"Hey, Daiji, stop being cringe."

-Ohhhhhh, the gash got bigger.

-...actually, since she's a snake, could she just be shedding her skin?

-...that's still kinda terrifying, but

-Wish we could've gotten more of this Tamaki/Hiromicchi interaction, it's nice.

-Daddy :(

-He left the cool rock :(

-Oh lord he sleep walkin'
