Hey y'all! Slightly weird question, but you know I love making and giving themed gift sets: Do you have any recommendations for board books or picture books with a sunshine or lemonade kind of theme? The set so far is a pink and orange and yellow quilt, a plushie sun, and a pair of pink and yellow baby booties with lemon slices all over them. It's good as-is, but I think if I can find a book to tie them all together it'd be even better

yakou furio's character is so tragic to me. i wanna meme about how they used the fridged wife trope but other than that it's like. he lost his family and later all of his coworkers and just. existed alone for years.

looking at the state the submarine and especially his bedroom was in, with everything being a mess and all the cigarette butts in his bed, yakou was clearly depressed. he wouldn't even take on any interesting cases to fulfill his passion as a detective because he was so afraid of the peacekeepers. instead he just kept his head down. surviving but not actually living.

and then he finally gets some new detectives to work at his agency and the first thing he can do is fail to save most of them from dying horribly. but the five that yakou did manage to save latch onto him and he starts getting into a leader role! even if his new coworkers are all rowdy and get into trouble they still respect him as a leader and look up to him.

the detectives keep picking fights with the peacekeepers that yakou has been trying so hard to dodge. and usually the resolution is kind of messed up because the victims die but the detectives prove themselves capable of handling the peacekeepers! they're helping people! for the first time in a while, yakou comes toe to toe with peacekeepers willingly, to help his new friends. he realizes that he is able to stand up against amaterasu corp, with the help of the others.

but by the time he realizes this, the stage has already been set. the letter from yomi turned his grief into anger and a thirst for vengeance. although yomi gave him the information and opportunity, yakou was ultimately the one who chose to murder the man who murdered his wife.

yakou has already rebuilt his life after his wife's death. the detectives at his agency look up to him and he would do anything for them. it would never be the same as the life he had with his wife but yakou had the chance to turn over a new leaf with a new found family who cares about him.

but instead, yakou plans a murder. he needs to die, over and over, in order to access the man he wants to kill and he accepts it. he needs to trick two kids, who look up to him and who he cares for, into becoming his accomplices to the murder and he accepts it. in the wake of forcing his detectives to witness his murder, he needs leave them in a lab filled with peacekeepers who want to kill them and he accepts it.

and it's not that he doesn't care about his detectives. yuma and halara disobeyed his orders and assaulted several peacekeepers, and he was willing to be arrested himself before throwing his employees under the bus. yuma and fubuki were implicated in terrorism and yakou and the others solve the case for them, then prepare to fight an army of peacekeepers to protect yuma.

for his murder plan, yakou only needs desuhiko and fubuki's powers. but he brings halara and vivia along as well because they would be able to protect the two younger detectives and fight their way out of the lab after yakou dies. he enacts his plan on a day that yuma wasn't around because he won't be able to help fight peacekeepers, so it's better to just keep him out of this mess. he covers up his murder-suicide to protect his detective's feelings, but also because they would be implicated as his accomplices if his plan was revealed.

and yakou probably expected that the other detectives would be fine. if they'd left him behind to die, the other detectives probably would have been able to either fight their way out or hide out in the lab a bit longer and figured out a good plan to escape. if yakou had his way, he would have gotten his revenge and his detectives would have gone home grief-stricken, but unharmed and forever unaware of their roles in his death.

but yakou doesn't account for the fact that the other detectives would try to save his life. yuma doesn't run after the hitman and escape the peacekeepers, he stays behind to beg yomi to help yakou. fubuki uses up all her energy to rewind time to try to prevent yakou's death instead of helping the others escape the lab. halara, vivia, and desuhiko not only have to fight off peacekeepers, but they also have to carry yakou to a hiding spot to give first aid. and instead of calmly planning their next move, everyone is desperate to solve the case so there would be any chance of getting yakou to a hospital as quickly as possible.

one major theme of rain code is that despite tragedies that may have happened in the past, people can work together with those they care about to live a better life in the future. and yakou could have had that. his wife's death should have stayed in the past, and he should have continued to mentor the other detectives, solving mysteries together and enjoying each other's companies.

but yakou couldn't let the past stay in the past. he had every chance to not go through with his murder. he has new people he loves, but he manipulates them and puts them in danger in order to get back at the person who killed the last person he loved. his victory was a pyrrhic one. he got his revenge but in return, he destroyed himself and his detectives' trust in him. he enjoyed his revenge momentarily before dying and leaving his new family, who he used their love and trust for him to his advantage, to pick up the pieces.

yakou furio had lost everything in the past. but in trying to pursue it he destroyed everything he had in the present. that's the tragedy of his character to me.

my pet headcanon that has 0 evidence is that post canon emira gets music lessons from raine

both of her siblings got to have mentors and i think she could use an outlet to express herself as well as a positive adult figure to go to outside of her family

Got introduced to the concept of glimmers today. They’re supposed to be the opposite of triggers. Little things that make you happy for no apparent reason.

@nightingaleinberkleysquare @wyrmtung @crowisachad @existing-is-bothersome @milonator @mrbango @caffeinated-octopus @wizardsnorlax @lonesome-drunken-dwarven-sailor any glimmers you’d like to share with the class?

[whumpitisthen]

is it strange that i genuinely kinda wanna be an irl whumpee? like im aroace so its not like That, but like being kidnapped and held captive sounds almost comforting to me for some reason and i always imagine myself as the whumpee in my whump scenarios. dunno what this means about me but i saw ur reblog and it got me thinking lol sorry if this is weird

Well if it is considered strange it's no more strange than me wanting to be an irl whumper so 🤝 you may come by my inconspicuous black car and get tied up and thrown in a trunk any day you wish i will take such good care of you i promise my basement is very damp and miserable and my thoughts about you are mean and evil only <3 for no particular reason i must ask are you more of an impersonal whumper or a carewhumper kinda guy.

But also no it's not strange you're not alone and im not alone i guarantee so many people are into whump in the same way you are. in fact, there's almost definitely more irl whumpees than whumpers out there if poll results i keep seeing are anything to go by and also. I heard kinks aren't explicitly sexual all the time? Which is a strange ass thing to comprehend for me bc then. The fuck is a kink. Just something that people like? That is strange? Bc then stuff like asmr and whump are absolutely kinks no questions asked no discourse needed. People can be sexually into those too, but it's always explicitly said that they aren't Always sexual, so like? And while i am also ace i have come to the conclusion that whump to me may be a kink too, even if it is absolutely not sexual to me ever. I like it, it is considered a strange thing to like, i even get physical reactions to it if it hits just right and i can't tell the difference between that and "actual kinks". All that is to say, dont be too pressed about it darling this is tumblr you are a clown just like the rest of us jingling foolishly across the floor of this circus (affectionate)

I love fanon Coven Heads and fanon GGs they’re so special to me. Getting us through the dark and cold. Caleb and his little kiddos hanging out. Hettie with her gamer girl set up (she’s streaming FNAF). Darius carrying Eberwolf everywhere as his emotional support demon. Raine playing the Darth Vader theme when Belos walks into a room. Terra smokes weed. This is all so real.

@raindovemodel together with a team is doing grass root work helping displaced Gazan Palestinians.

They're an activist I've admired for a long time. They’re not active here, but you can find them on instagram where they’re actively documenting the work they’re currently doing.

Consider sharing this around to help innocent civilians caught in the crossfire. 🕊️

I feel like my main take away from the Somerton situation is, thinking about it, the sheer damage he’s done to a certain subset of the queer community due to that information being passed on and shared around. And how much of that needs to be fixed or reversed.

Particularly by making sure anyone who got trampled by his actions get the compensation they deserve, and by learning what the red flags associated with blatant misinformation and outright plagiarism are.

…Given Somerton’s main internet presence has all but been nuked at this point, I can only hope he’ll one day come clean without the truth being twisted, and actually do better by the community to make up for it.

But that’s just wishful thinking on my part. The best thing here, is he just stays gone and the rest of the community can start to heal.

It’s enough of a spectacle as it is, what with various blogs cheering and shouting, parading the corpse of his Youtube channel around at this point. The next step is making sure anyone who honestly got caught up in Somerton’s lies get the guidance they need.
