Does anyone know what the timeline of the TWST main story is??? iirc Heartslabyul takes place in September before Ace’s birthday. Actually I think Prologue & Heartslabyul spans at least a week at max 😭😭
Savanaclaw is probably Late October… purely bcs I don’t think they’d do a school festival so early into the year
Octavinelle is like November-> Early December to me bcs it’s the midterm exam period, & idt they’d do exams right after a festival, but who knows…
Scarabia’s over winter break so December ->January
Pomefiore is probably??? somewhere around January as well?? Because I remember it was still snowing from the cutscene that Prefect has with Kalim abt his disappointment on not being a main singer. I’m betting on Late January at earliest. And Ignihyde takes place literally the night after Pomefiore 😭😭😭 This is also just guesswork based on how far up north the Sage’s Isle is, I assume the winters last longer there.
As for Diasomnia I got no clue at all 💔💔 all ik is that it should be getting warmer bcs of the reactions the characters have towards Malleus causing snow & winds to pick up… I used to think it was March but it probably isn’t 😭
if anyone would like to refute/add onto anything please feel free to do so!! This is all just guesswork 🙏🙏🙏
#i say stuff#twst timeline#idk how to tag this i won’t put too much stuff in it because i dont’t want to clog up the tags too much 😭😭😭#also the events exist in like a vacuum to me 😭😭😭 except for Halloween those r always in Octber#*october#Terror is Trending & Spectral Soiree happen back to back so those have set dates I think#October 31st to November 1st#Glorious Masquerade is a little tricky but it’s at least Late October bcs NRC’s Halloween celebration happens during the exchange trip#thank you ace jack and deuce for producing one of the funniest scenes in that event…#the same could be said for Stage in Playful Land but i think it has the possibility of being set in early October purely bcs#one of ace’s excuse on skipping school to go to Playful Land is that he wants to let loose before exam crunch + Halloween prep#As for LiTB with Nightmare Before Christmas mayhaps its somewhere during the Halloween celebration#or like literally days before. since in the finale they used the Halloweenified version of Main Street as the background#Harveston is like TWST Finland to me so like it could take place in like March or smth with how much it seems to snow 😭😭😭#LiTB with Stitch is right before summer break from what i remember#Sam’s New Year Sale is in New Years bcs duh 😭😭😭 but I assume it’s after Winter Break because the cast is all there#The rest are a bit muddy to me tbh…#live laugh love#wow i ended up yapping a lot again teehee

My absolute favorite thing about the casting announcement for Jeremy Renner in Knives Out III is that it’s already been established that he exists in this universe, so either he’s playing himself or the writers are setting up the funniest gag of their careers. Personally I’d like to think he’s trying to get Benoit Blanc to sign off on an advertising deal

some compelling byler proof?
the fact that before s4, david harbour said "if you've been watching the show you should know, will isn't interested in el, he's interested in someone else in the group"
"If you've been watching the show, you should know."
that's interesting considering before s4, will doesn't do much of anything that would blatantly show he has feelings mike. all of will and mikes relationship in s1 and most of it in s2 is emphasized on mike. will is just existing, and mike is reacting to him. the only things will does (which according to the cast is supposed to imply his romantic feelings) is yell for mike when he was having an episode, and say only mike understands him. so that's supposed to imply romance, but mike initiating physical touch (putting an arm around him x2, holding his hand), being protective of him, noticing the slightest change in his behavior, sleeping on his floor, sleeping in his hospital room, saying asking him to be friends is the best thing he's ever done while CRYING DOESNT? NONE OF THAT MOUNTAIN OF INTERACTIONS IMPLIES ROMANCE??
in fact, before s4 lots of people didn't believe will was queer at all, let alone had feelings for mike. but those people were wrong. if you've been watching the show, you should know.
that without a doubt means they have been hinting at will's feelings, you just have to pay attention. you're supposed to be noticing these small things. it means exactly what you think it means. sometimes it's the small things that say everything.
david harbour in that same video also said "will said he wants to be in the basement with mike playing dnd for the rest of his life."
and finn wolfhard chimed in "--for the rest of his life, exactly! and he said that!"
the funniest part of this is that will didn't say that. it was mike who brought that up, will just said "yeah i did think that." in a dramatic fight where MIKE IS THE BAD GUY!!!! MIKE IS THE ASSHOLE AND FEELS GUILTY!!!!!
and the way finn emphasizes "and he said that!", clearly frustrated with the people who tried to twist it to not be romantic when it means exactly what is said. and it's not like will or mike imply it's romantic either.
when you want to spend the rest of your life with someone, that's romantic.
so it seems fair to say when you think asking someone to be your friend is the best decision you've ever made in your whole life, that's romantic too.
"What did you think, really? Did you think we were never gonna get girlfriends? That we were just gonna sit in my basement all day and play games for the rest of our lives?"
"Yeah, I guess I did. I really did."
all of that is, according to the cast, meant to directly acknowledge will's feelings, EVEN THOUGH there is a thin veil that could potentially lead you to believe that will is just mad because the group is falling apart. will wants to be in mikes basement playing dnd for the rest of his life, and he confirmed it himself.
if you've been watching, you should know.
so that is supposed to very obviously be hinting at will's feelings, but mike saying "it was the best thing i've ever done" means nothing? that has no veil. that is not unclear. after s5 i could definitely see the cast saying "mike thinks asking will to be his friend is the best thing he's ever done" and finn going "HE SAID THAT!!! HE SAID IT HIMSELF!!!!!!!"

BABE WE NEED A PART TWO OF THE CLONE DICK READER STORY
Tumblr media
It's not part two as such, but I can give you some general ideas of what would be happening after Clone!Reader is put in the ambulance with Jackovy.
First, Dick really feels like he screwed up. And, because he has a weird big brother/father complex, he wants to see how he can fix it. Don't get me wrong, Bruce doesn't have an overnight change of heart about Clon! Reader. He's just scared now because for the first time in a long time, if not years, he doesn't have a way to hide or a backup plan about what would happen if the Reader opens his mouth.
Dick would be meddling, and very early on trying to get his other brothers involved, in Reader's rooms inside the hospital; only to find that his clone's husband is prostrate and bolted to the floor of the reader's bed.
Dick and Bruce are frustrated, because apparently the reader and his husband are in one of the few hospitals in the city that is not under the care or sponsorship of Wayne Industries. And thus, they have no legal way - no such legal way - of knowing about you and his recovery.
Jackovy ends up actually marrying the reader, since it's a really nice beneficiary marriage anyway. And he has too much time on his hands to want to fuck with people who make his favourite person in the world miserable.
The Reader would definitely ask for a birth certificate as a fake wedding present. Paz would fulfil his whim.
The funniest thing about it all? The certificate had its debut and scandal when it appeared where it really should appear in the original and true records. Tim thought it was real when he noticed that even the registration codes were - much to his and your and everyone else's surprise - correlative to each other, had they actually existed.
Jackovy signing, always in front of Bruce and Dick, the papers or talking aloud to the doctors about HIS HUSBAND'S condition.
Clone Lector asking, because she likes to fuck around and asks no less, loudly, very nicely, for HIS HUSBAND to come and help him take a shower, because the casts are uncomfortable.
Jackovy always talking or suando old slangs to give Dick an aunerisma, as he knows how it makes him uncomfortable that he looks older than the Clone! Reader.

heal - @jegulus-microfic - words: 1,191
Come October, Regulus is quiet. Closed in on himself. Almost non-existent. He won’t come out of the bedroom, James says. He’s been shut in there all day and he won’t look at James. 
Sometimes James thinks that Regulus is punishing him for everything that had happened between them. For all the time that was lost. For all the fights that were had. For all the betrayals that occurred on both sides.
James has no regrets. And James has all the regrets. 
James has no guilt. And James has all the guilt.
In October, Lily brings the baby around to visit. He’s not really a baby anymore, honestly. He’s walking (running, really) and speaking in two-to-three word sentences, and he has the funniest little shoes that Sirius bought him and drags a stuffed dragon wherever he goes.
James had been devastated to have missed when little Harry started to really run (or at least as well as a two-year-old can run); he often is when he misses the milestones. So, when Harry begins chasing Regulus’s cat, James doesn’t intervene. If anything, he encourages the behaviour. The cat is a nasty, spiteful little demon anyway. 
‘It’s hard for him,’ Lily says gently. ‘He went through a lot.’
‘We all went through a lot,’ James mutters, frowning. ‘It was war. That’s the definition of war. War is a lot.’
Lily rolls her eyes and takes a sip from her glass of wine. It is Regulus’s wine and he will have a fit when he finds out, but right before shutting down, they’d had a vicious fight and James is still reeling a little from it. ‘Stop being such a little bitch,’ Lily says, her expression entirely reproaching. ‘Callousness doesn’t suit you anymore. Regulus almost died. I think he’s allowed to be a bit torn up about it occasionally. Have you tried…talking to him?’
‘He just ignores me. That’s the problem!’ James groans, looking over to where Harry is trying to crawl under the coffee table to reach Regulus’s little demon cat. ‘Actually, right before the whole ignoring me problem, he told me to fuck off and find someone else to—and I quote—“cast as your trophy husband in your little perfect white-picket fence delusion”. I think he’s trying to break up with me, Lils!’ 
Lily snorts into her glass of wine. Because, of course she does. Regulus might have issues with her, but she’s still always appreciated him for his nasty acid tongue. In some ways, they really are one of a kind, and James occasionally wonders if he has a type.
‘He’s not wrong,’ she says. ‘You have always really loved playing house. Okay, okay, have you tried...just giving him space.’
‘There’s a continent of space between us!’ James exclaims. ‘That’s the problem!’
‘Alright, alright.’ Lily grabs Harry when he starts trying to grab the cat’s tail to yank it out from its hiding place beneath the glass coffee table. ‘Have you tried bitch slapping him, then?’
‘…thanks, you’re such a huge help, Lils.’
‘You can’t force someone to be okay if they’re not, James. You can just be there for them.’
Trapped in Lily’s arms, Harry shouts in protest and starts to squirm around like a fish out of water. He’s a spirited child (a tiny human, as Regulus puts it). Regulus has always loved that about him. That Harry is bold. Tenacious. At times he can be an absolute menace, a quality that Regulus nurtures in him. 
‘I’m just going to��’ James grabs Harry and tucks him under his arm. ‘Give me a moment.’
He races upstairs, Harry giggling and thrashing about excitedly. When he reaches the bedroom, he doesn’t knock; Regulus will not permit him entry if he does. Inside, Regulus sits on the bed staring blankly at a book that is open in his lap. The curtains are drawn, so it’s not like he’d even be able to see well enough to read anyway.
Even in the darkness of his own tiny, private world, Regulus is so beautiful. His hair has grown long recently, the weight pulling his curls looser. James used to love tucking the loose strands behind his ears so he can see Regulus’s silver-grey eyes, so he can see all of Regulus’s face before he kisses him.
And then he realised, after a while, that Regulus lets his hair grow out when he’s not in a good way.
Harry waves exaggeratedly and shouts, ‘Hi!’ because he has yet to work out volume control. He crawls across the bed towards Regulus and perches next to him, reaching up to pat Regulus’s cheek.
‘I’ve come to bribe you with a tiny human,’ James says with a smile. ‘He’s been asking for you, you know.’ 
Regulus sighs and sets the book aside. I’m not in the mood, his expression says. I want to be alone, his expression says. But he, himself, speaks none of this because he’s always so cautious about Harry. So wary of breaking him the way he had been broken as a child. He takes the stuffed dragon that Harry offers him and sits it on his lap.
And then, slowly, he looks up at James. ‘Why am I here?’ 
Sitting down on the edge of the bed, James frowns. Because you lived, he wants to say. There is not a day that goes by that James does not thank every higher power in and out of existence that Regulus lived, because he would he would have died with Regulus otherwise. He would not have been able to survive such a loss. Not intact. Not whole. Regulus would have taken every vital part of James with him.
‘Why am I here?’ Regulus repeats.
James reaches over to stroke Harry’s hair. He wants so badly to run his fingers through Regulus’s hair, but he fears that Regulus will not accept touch right now.
‘Because I want you here,’ he whispers. ‘And I love you. And I hope you want to be here too.’ And I hope, he thinks, that you love me too.
‘Why?’ Regulus asks. 
And James knows what he’s asking: why do you love me? It’s just that James does not know how to answer this. He just does. He loves Regulus because he cannot imagine any other way of being. He loves how gentle Regulus is, how simultaneously fragile and strong. He loves how clever Regulus is. How good Regulus is, how good Regulus wants to be. How brazen and forthright, how Regulus always speaks his mind.  How fussy. How loyal. How intense. How proud. How Regulus’s feet always get cold. How Regulus loves cats because they’re independent and particular. How Regulus is slightly addicted to grapes. How he goes crazy if someone dog-ears his books.
James leans over and gently kisses Regulus’s forehead. The tip of his nose. His lips. A soft, chaste, closed-mouth kiss that he hopes says everything he cannot find the words to say right now and will hopefully be able to say one day. Soon.
He needs Regulus to know. To understand. To feel and believe it. That James wants him here. That James would not have it any other way.

It occurs to me that Mairimashita! Iruma-kun and Rosario + Vampire have, if not the same plot, at least functionally the same setting, so now I'm trying to decide what would be the funniest outcome of a crossover between the two.
A) Yokai Academy and Babyls both still exist as rival schools
B) All the characters go to the same school. An early contrivance outs Tsukune and Iruma to each other as humans, though not to the cast at large. spider_man_pointing.jpg ensues.
C) Iruma and Tsukune do not get outed to each other, but they both keep getting swept up in the same situations, so we get constant comedic irony as they both try to keep the other from realizing that they're human.

---
Crackships and Rarepairs by QueenOfHearts7378

The Markov Alliance by CrochetJellybean
Slight spoilers for season 5! Markov was excited to use Max's class time to learn more about the AI system within the Alliance rings. In his exploration, he accidentally discovers a chat room of 14 non-humans connected to the Alliance network, so he decides to join it.
This was hilarious and fun and heartwarming. Markov accidentally stumbling across the kwamis and them hinting as best they could about what to do and who to tell about them (as best they could without spewing out bubbles) was great, along with the Miracuclass’s reaction to finding out about them.
Also their groupchat name is “plagg is oblivious” due to Plagg not figuring out that Nooroo was in the same house as him all this time, which is just perfect XD. I’ve reread this fic several times, it’s so good and bite-sized!
---
A Monumental Disaster by @uptoolateart
There came a point when you had to say enough was enough – and Eiffel was so THERE. Constantly being flung about – knocked over – severed in two – bent in demeaning poses – vanished from existence – sent to the Sahara – flooded – completely obliterated – dressed up like a Christmas tree…. There was only so much a tower could take. [The Eiffel Tower gets akumatised]
---
Gabriel Seeks Financial Planning Advice by @uptoolateart
As Gabriel accepts his imminent demise, he decides to make plans to protect Adrien's inheritance and livelihood. This is the letter his trusted financial adviser writes to him, summarising the key points of that meeting. ------------ So, I really do work in financial planning, and my team and I got to talking about Harry Potter's needs. Before I knew it, I was writing a post-meeting summary letter to Harry, as if he were a client. Then a colleague said, 'You should write one to all the characters on Miraculous.' Well, I don't know about ALL of them, but Gabriel's letter started writing itself in my head without me even trying. The objectives list had me cracking up and suddenly I had my laptop out, writing this crazy thing.
This is hilarious. The financial advisor just takes all of Gabriel’s statements and aspirations at face value and writes up a letter to help work out what to do, no matter how ludicrous it all sounds.
---
Chat Noir Cataclyms Hawk Moth's Balls by @a-flaming-idiot
It's what it says on the tin; Chat Noir castrates his unaware father. And at the same time, Gabriel hits a high C to shatter glass, Nathalie realizes she wasted her life, Chloe accidentally outs herself, Adrien becomes homeless, there are no more secret identities, Tikki thinks she's funny, Nino and Alya take what's their's, and Chloe finally respects another human being. And a partridge in a pear tree~
So this is a fun little crackfic! Lots of jokes and absurd scenarios, you're likely to giggle at least a few times (and hopefully several times) while reading this.
---
The Magical Rainbow Flying Caticorn by CrochetJellybean
Kagami is just trying to have a fun day with Marinette when Felix keeps messaging her. Apparently Adrien stole the peacock miraculous and won't give it back.
So this is a fun little fic. Felix is very annoyed at having lost his Miraculous, but hey, at least the kwamis are amused with the situation! There might as well be some sort of upside to being a Senti XD.
---
Draining the Tank by @trinketsinthesun
After a hard day of being Paris's most famous fashion designer and supervillain, Gabriel Agreste wants nothing more than a hot bath. But with the hot water tank always empty, he starts to wonder - why is Adrien taking such long showers?
So this fic is rated M, and it's rated that high because Gabriel comes to suspect that Adrien's long showers are due to him masturbating while he's taking them (no masturbation actually takes place in the fic). Then he notices that Adrien's long showers happen to occur most frequently during akuma attacks and draws his own hilariously wrong conclusions XD.
---
Swallowing Rings Is Bad For Your Health by @flightfoot
Marinette swallows the Black Cat Ring. Plagg wakes up. ------ Based off of Buggachat's Bakery Enemies AU, part 34.

Adrichat Hell by @flightfoot
So I saw that this was Adrichat November and decided to just unwind and write some ridiculous stories with my favorite Crack ship! Adrien writes Adrichat fanfics
---
Cut the Cheese by @flightfoot
Sleepily he groped around on the desk, trying to push himself upright. His hands made contact with a goopy substance. His eyes flew open. A familiar yellow, smelly substance greeted him as an awful stench assaulted his nose. ------- Plagg has an idea for defeating Hawkmoth. Gabriel wants to escape his atelier before he passes out from the cheese fumes.
---
Never Sing At Home by @flightfoot
Based off a tumblr post by pipiezexal --- Chat Noir, telepathically: hey bugaboo I have some bad news and some good news Ladybug: hey chat how are you in my head Chat: I’ll get to that- so bad news, hawkmoth knows who I am Chat: good news though, I know who he is Chat: bad news, he has my miraculous Chat: good news, I have his!

nuts reading in jp 11 - wrap up for vol 2 + i can talk about TriStamp undertaker wolfwood a little!!! whooo!!!
its been hella weird to read trigun in japanese since my first read was in english. i think i dug out a few extra stuff i didnt know existed in the work during this little journey. (thank you for joining in on my rambles!)
no real translation word related stuff today. mostly culture stuff dump.
but man i was right on the money when i said vash was stressed in #10. i forget he actually falls unconscious after dominique quits the narrative. yay~
Tumblr media
me after i finish these posts at 5am every time
and then, him.
🥺✨✨raidei the blade. ✨✨ 🥺
Tumblr media Tumblr media
listen. this guy. this fucking guy is, personally, the funniest guy in the entirety of trigun. for that line above in the 98 anime, and also for some stuff he represents. ...and it's not for larping reasons. ill get into that another day, please look forward to it. (i say this knowing his backstory was rough.)
anyway its time.... for Wolfwood's 'job change'.
Tumblr media
in the manga he introduces himself as a tradesman Priest. it doesnt make much sense to outsiders but despite people getting confused, it mostly gets hand waved off as the guy being a little eccentric. and also prideful.
we then get more information about that being a cover for him being one of the Gung Ho Guns, Chapel. he can fight, hes an assassin, his job is to somehow get at Vash while being technically employed by Knives.
this wolfwood has absolutely no struggle with himself as a Priest specifically. heck, its even giving him some confidence bc he actually knows his stuff and can get by with those priestly things alone. at least, i assume so, bc otherwise the pride thing would be very misplaced as he is revealed that he really wants out of the insane GHG business, and wants nothing to do with his coworkers, as it were.
but TriStamp Wolfwood is... different in that pride regard
Tumblr media
this version of wolfwood introduces himself as an Undertaker. he's technically a Priest, but he clearly lacks so much pride that he chooses to be an Undertaker.
the narrative tracks since he's the guide to send Vash to hell in tristamp, but theres at least 1 more layer to this.
so, Shinto! Shinto has played a very big part in Japanese culture and history since idk the beginning of Japanese history, affecting society and culture and governance.
key thing for this post: Shinto has a concept named Kegare/Defilement, which you can think of as an accumulation of evil energy. bad energy. bad enough to attract misfortune, evil spirits, and evil evil evil bad bad bad. (ive actually written about this in video game context before if you wanna read it here)
Kegare is generated upon death, blood, menstruation, and all that. in some modern media, Kegare can also be depicted to be generated by an accumulation of negative emotions from people. but for the longest time, it was mainly Death. (oh and somewhat also women with the whole uh.... you know, menstruation, childbirth, and stillbirths etc.)
but: Kegare is NOT sin, and should not be seen as such.
old japan governance also used Caste System. so combine that with shinto, and society and here's the not fun stuff: we now have a discriminated class of people who did all of society's very necessary but deemed dirty jobs. these are the Butchers, Leatherworkers, Executioners, and Undertakers. (which is wild. a society would not be able to function without them.)
they are shunned, deemed too dirty, too tainted, too polluted to ever have a hope of having a better life. since social mobility wasnt a thing with Caste System in some eras. and coming too close to them means pollution on the self too.
the Caste System got abolished, and today the descendants are called Burakumin 部落民. they are still being discriminated against to this day. the remnants of the dirtiness with certain jobs still remain, especially with jobs that involves the dead. its also possible to know who is a descendant of one through family names, which can be used to trace family registry and sus out old residences etc.
youtube
feel free to watch the above video for a clearer explanation by a japanese man instead of just taking my word for it >_>
back to wolfwood.
studio orange making him go from Priest to Undertaker is likely rooted in a logic associated with this. that TriStamp wolfwood lacks the confidence to have a strong identity outside of GHG, whereas manga wolfwood has. that TriStamp wolfwood really does think of himself as trash and worthless even before outsiders' judgement, whereas manga wolfwood's struggle is more about an internal struggle of being lost.
manga wolfwood is also never truly free from his identity as part of the EOM until the very end.
Tumblr media
but TriStamp wolfwood gets a full contract saying that hes free from the EOM (i assume!)
Tumblr media
i think theres also additional implications but im losing braincells by the minute. the change makes so much sense and tracks so well that apart from the confidence thing, everything is more or less intact.
(worth possibly nothing also, I think TriStamp wolfwood isnt fully checking boxes of uhhh Normality in japanese context. hes dressed in a mess, hes not clean shaven, his skin is kinda dark and not fair, he speaks in non-standard japanese. but ymmv, he will be ok in kansai at least, but not fully fitting in in Capital Tokyo nor ex-Capital Kyoto.)
i also, admittedly, dont know much about the culture surrounding death and undertakers within the states or europe so i cant comment much on that aspect. im aware i must have missed something. on that front, sorry D:
anyway thats all i got for now! thanks for reading this long ass post!
Edit: smooshing a bunch of add ons that are important into this og post, originally here
#OOOOOOOOO#Tbh I've always wondered about the Japanese context#Because it's more straightforward here in the US I feel like#Also I love love love where this put Stampede Wolfwood#Because they DID say that Wolfwood is still finding his footing#His shirt is grey because he isn't settled in who he is yet#So I'm curious where they're gonna go#Anyway thank you for the wonderful meta as always#Trigun Meta#Trigun -@revenantghost
thank u for the tags once again! and for putting this on my dash bc i just remembered something as i looked through this post with fresh eyes again.
it might be important for a potential future plot point in Stampede. it's about water and some parallels with a potential baptism. (though there is 0 guarantee this addendum will happen, im going into wild speculation territory here)
there is technically 2 ways to purify Kegare. Harae and Misogi
Harae is performed by a shinto priest/ress with shinto rituals on a target to exorcise/purify them. this is external, and involves ritual tools. or even a dance or song.
Misogi can be performed by the self. this involves basically washing oneself in cold ass clean water. it can be in a moving water or still, so long as its clean. shinto priests usually do this before they perform a ritual themselves.
Tumblr media
visitors to shinto shrines are expected to do the same at the water spots for their hands and mouth. this act is called temizuya but the concept is still the same
so uh
remember ep 10-12 where its shown that vash going into the Pool puts him in total disadvantage and was a whole thing that wolfwood stood outside for? and that there was at least a few post calling this Pool a baptism bit?
;)
Tumblr media
yep. im thinking of wolfwood a potential shinto priest on top of the catholic variety. im gonna bet my 1 monster energy drink this pool trap will happen again and wolfwoof is gonna go swimming for a bit of his own free will, if this plot point comes up again ever

You wanna know how buddie entered the chat and became part of it heads up?
Well that’s easy.
We are the fandom who hacked Lou on Twitter in a global strike to discredit him because time zones don’t exist and planted years old Instagram posts on his instagram which we collectively hacked as well!
We as a fandom used our super secret team of super spy fans codenamed BOB to hack Disney itself because they aren’t a world known giant corporation with people who’d love to hack it to mine and sell user data with the single thought and goal of finding and releasing the cut never before seen buddie karaoke footage!
We are he fandom who’s guy single handedly has the power to hold the entire show nay… the network! hostage and demand they run it how he wants, including forcing the cast and crew, Angela included, to say nice things about him for good publicity with the power of his mustache despite the fact he holds all that power he somehow still thought he was fired
Search your feelings Anna. You know it to be true.
Adding in buddie to heads up? Childs play for a fandom as powerful as ours.
😂😂😂😂😂
Oh my god, how could I forget about how incredible hackers we are, we obviously hacked the heads up source code and added the answer in, just like we hacked into the pop culture jeopardy teleprompter and forced that to happen 😂😂😂
(the funniest thing about the Disney data leak is that what leaked was actually slack conversations, no scenes, it was internal communication, the biggest issue there is that it could contain sensitive information like passwords and stuff, and there were some financial information that they definitely didn't want out there, but sure, blame the buddies lol)
Anyway, we are so powerful, yet the show will never go there, such a beautiful paradox.

obviously i’m biased (bc have you seen my blog ever) but i do think the nsbu cast is arguably one of the funniest casts to put into the setting of literally Any other campaign bc they’re literally just Regular People. like the plot of just about every other campaign is like. well sure this is weird but within the confines of our pre existing world. but in nsbu it’s just six absolute nobodies getting jumanji-ed into an incredibly unhinged fake vhs tape via alien technology. and they just have to live with that.
even in comparison to tuc or something it’s like. well the dream team have dealt with numerous magical occurrences at this point. they’re pretty used to it. the nsbu cast had one (1) wild experience out of absolutely nowhere and then never again. they learned aliens exist and they all very loosely had magical abilities and then what. what happened after that. put them in more scenarios. quangle those guys

Hello, I saw your requests are open after I read some of your stuff and wanted to give an idea. One thing I don’t see too often in fantasy is anti-magic types so I’d like to request a Tav that is magically blank. What I mean by that is where everyone else either has magic or is effected by it, Tav can be neither of these. Try to hit them with a lightning bolt? Doesn’t work. Illusions? Doesn’t work. Enchantments? Nah. This makes them a terrifying mage hunter that can go toe to toe with many magic creatures and users. Of course they need to work around not being healed by magic as well. (Choose whoever for the characters!)

How would the boys react to a Tav who’s incapable of being harmed by or creating magic?
(If any of you won't see one for the girls, just ask <3)

“I know I’ve already got the delightfully excellent privilege of looks to me, darling, but damn it all! You’d think those lazing Gods would grant me more than just a dashing face to get me through my troubles too!”
Immediately comes asking how the hell you gained such an ability and if so, how could he get some of that for himself.
He's envious of the fact that nearly all magic seems to have little to zero effects on you. He's far too consumed by the amount of advantages it gives you that he doesn't exactly see the downsides.
I mean, he’s seen you take a fireball to your face and shake it off as if it was nothing. However, the sight of you bleeding out as every magical healing potion and spell does absolutely nothing to aid you ends up being the very thing that makes him wonder if it would be worth it.
But hey! It's rather entertaining for him to watch every foe you encounter gasp in shock when they realize all the magic spells they throw at you do nothing to hinder your each attack.
The funniest thing he saw was someone trying to manipulate you with a charm spell only for you to humiliate them for their obvious attempt.

“By the hells, you’re immune to magic? That’s one darn good of an advantage to have, especially on a journey such as ours. Though, it's a shame that you’ll never get to see the delights that come with it, you would have loved it, I’m sure!”
He wasn't all too bothered by the fact you couldn't create magic. Some people lived all their lives without using them and they still made fine warriors, why should he judge you?
However, he was completely shocked when he first watched a lightning bolt strike your body only for you to shrug it off. You didn't even have the burn marks that would have came from it.
After figuring out your little situation, he was both deeply fascinated and impressed. There's no way anything is stopping either of you now, not when you are immune to nearly all types of magic.
Be prepared because this man does start to give you ridiculous titles over your unique ability. “The anti-magician”, “The impenetrable magic consumer”, it gets worse and worse but it's making you both laugh.
Yet, what he does find quite concerning is the number of times he's witnessed your other companions use you as a personal test dummy in terms of magic-based attacks. He’s always quick to grab you out of those situations even though you were mostly okay with it.

“Immune to magic? Truly? Are you telling me a particularly powerful sorcerer could cast a tremendously potent necrotic spell on you and you’d just... Stand there… with not so much as a bruise? Are you certain you’re from this plane of existence-”
What in the fuck <— His initial reaction lmao
He’s never even seen anything that could resist most if not all magic, even worse that you can't even seem to make it yourslf.
He’s spent the majority of his life so heavily involved with magic and the weave that he could hardly see himself without it, better yet, he doesn't even understand how you live so mundanely.
Heck! Even lower-class citizens could learn magic if not already know how to cast a basic spell or two. Now he has a hundred different questions running through his head and you could probably only answer half of them.
Perhaps he even suspected that you may have just used a multitude of potions of resistance on yourself to turn out this way but if so, the effects should have worn off by now.
Either way, he’s bewildered by you. Intensely interested in how this situation of yours came to be and if there is truly a limit to what magic you can resist. Though, trust that he won't try to experiment on you for himself.

“Ah, though I understand the loss of seizing the art of magic for oneself is rather unfortunate, this only means that perhaps a far more naturalistic path awaits you. One I hope brings nothing but joy and aid in our journey ahead.”
Pleasantly surprised but also curious about it all. When you say all magic do you truly mean all? And if he were to bring a magical flame near your skin, would you feel it's warmth?
Though, he doesn't press on the matter too much. However, there are occasions when he has forgotten about your immunity and ends up shielding you from a magical blast you could have easily taken yourself.
Reflexes perhaps. He’s fairly used to jumping in to protect those he cares for and he does get a tad bit embarrassed over the fact that your magic immunity slipped his mind once or twice due to his own impulses.
Though worry not if magical healing spells or potions don't work on you! He knows plenty of natural ways to heal your wounds. Though it will take significantly longer.
Regardless, he's happy to be of service to you, even teaching you some ways to use herbs and the fauna around you to make a quick remedy to all sorts of wounds so you won't have to ever struggle as much as you did before.

Thinking about R-Cana the (hookup?? Dating??) App for lithe old magical men again. Which is the funniest fucking thing to me it carries insanely funny implications. Canon users are Aguefort and a version of Lapin that has access to a phone. Do you think these two also use it.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is where I point out that Brennan seems to like making crazy magic skinny old black men. Three times is a pattern. I don't know what the fuck this means. Anyway.
The quangle in general invites the most insane crack fics with an actual basis in canon but the existence of this app makes it worse and it's so funny to me. And like. The quangle shows aren't canon in the way that the characters we see are not from the canon timelines and nothing they do should matter when considering them, but it IS canon in the sense that the Time Quangle is very real and actively what Aguefort is dealing with in junior year right. So the existence of R-Cana is canon. Interdimensional gay app goes crazy.
NOW. Proposition to make my hypothetical crack fic based on the existence of R-Cana even more insane. Brennan says that Aguefort texts Lapin over "one of his apps". There are MORE. Who knows what the premise of those are? I don't. But hey if lithe old magical men is one then a general magical men one isn't that far fetched. Introducing: Sir Theobald Gumbar. THAT'S an old magical man. LITERAL bear. He belongs on this app.
How about Alejandro from unsleeping city?? OLD MAGICAL MAN. And he's charming he fucks. I know he has a wife but it's okay they can be polyamorous.
Wait wait Theobald is probably in like his fifties and if I count him I have to count Kingston too. I DON'T think Kingston is the kinda guy but the quangle isn't canon characters anyway and my insane crack fic cast grows. KUGRASH IS LIKE SIXTY. KUGRASH FITS IN HERE TOO. Do you understand how fucking funny the introduction of interdimensional magic gay dating apps is do you UNDERSTAND. Fully no one can tell me I'm wrong because this is based on something Brennan Lee Mulligan himself decided to establish GOD the quangle is a gem.
PLEASE don't take anything in this post seriously I just think it's so funny.

Funniest SAGAU reverse isekai settings for them to pop into existence in:
1. Renaissance fair
2. Norway (Khaenri’ah is based off Norway so I think everyone would freak out)
3. Anime/Video game convention
4. New York City babey (or any major city) (like Enchanted but worse)
6. Haunted house
Nobody is having a good time, but it would be so funny.
I am so very sorry that it took me this long to write this, life kept throwing things at me and so I died before writing this
I haven't been to most of these places, but you are so correct, I'm mostly having them react to the places, and it's not necessarily focused on them searching for you
If it wasn't quite how you wanted, please ask again? I'll try my best
Renfaire:
Fischl, would fit perfectly in a Renfaire, overwelmed at first but slow grows to like more and more, before proudly proclaiming "I am the Prinzessin der Verurteilung" and all the people clap and bow down and respect her like a princess
What about Ayaka, joining in, changing into some of the clothes available and joining into the festivities, someplace where her responsibility don't weigh on her, somewhere the honor of her family doesn't follow her like a shadow
Both girls probably would this a blessing from 'Your Grace' a chance to relax and unwind in a place that welcomes them so warmly
Norway:
Dainsleif holds a bated breath as he looks around the place, familiar yet, unfamiliar. He torn on whether this is a gift from you or a curse, just what has he done to deserve this?
Zhongli feels his memories of the war coming back to him, flooding his thoughts, so many people... dead, why did you show him this place? Did you want to him something? Are you displeased with him?
Norway fills those who know about Khaenri'ah with a hidden dread, they misunderstand and think somethings changing, the world's getting overturned
Anime/Video Game Con
Nahida walks around the con glancing around, she understands that she's in a different world almost instantly, she's curious about the customs and world she just appeared in, does everyone try and imitate others? She does rather feel unnerved around the Dottore cosplayers
Collei immediately gets intimidated by all the loud sounds and the bumping bodies, although luckily several kind cosplayers took care of her and gently lead her away from the crowd, she honestly just very confusing and overstimulated
The con is a curious place for those who visit it and almost everyone who has trauma from Dottore wonder why there's so many Dottore clones all in one place
New York City:
Venti feels stifled, the air didn't have the same clean crispness of Teyvat, and although the sights are sounds of city are music to his ears, the air pushes on his chest like a heavy weight, making it hard for him to full enjoy his trip into the real world
Xinyan absolutely loves the city, the aesthetic, the feeling of expression, all kinds of music and styles, she wasn't getting weird stares or her style choice, she love her time in the city, her only problem? The how dirty the streets were
In New York City, it goes about as well as you'd expect, it's exciting to all the new sights, however... if it's extremely easy for one to get overstimulated
Haunted House:
Chongyun probably knocked out the first person that tried to scare him before realizing that it was just a normal person and not a evil spirit, he still gets his hopes up that he'll encounter a true ghost through
Hu Tao absolutely loves scaring the cast and guests, she'll find all the hiding spots and lay in wait for her next victim, honestly has a huge blast even though she's been transported into a different world
A/N Ahhhhh I posted it too early!!!!!!
Thanks for Reading

Do you think that homeless/impoverished wizards exist? Is there a wizarding welfare state?
I think it's implied in the text that wizards run more or less the same policies as the UK government, save some differences in law enforcement, although it's weird because it's not clear what in their government would do that? Like, St. Mungo's seems to be a standard socialized hospital, in that the Weasleys never have to worry about hospital bills or anything. And Hogwarts is free public education for all students 11-17. (The lack of information about what education, if any, pureblood wizards get before 11 is one of the funniest parts of the books — muggle-borns and half-blood kids presumably go to muggle schools, but what about purebloods who can't afford private tutors? Who taught Ron long-division??) So we can assume the Ministry administers the magical versions of customary British public services like education and healthcare.
As for whether wizards can be homeless, I think yes, because we know that wizards can be poor and needful — the Weasleys struggle to keep their kids supplied for school, and they don't seem to have any form of long-term savings. And we know from Book 7 that magic doesn't really help you with most of the challenges of poverty — you can cast heating and cooling charms, and you can produce potable water, but you can't use magic to make food, and if the Trio hadn't been able to borrow a glamping tent from Arthur's friend, they would've been functionally homeless for most of Deathly Hallows. Hermione shoplifts eggs and other food staples so they can survive. Granted, you might say that's because the Ministry's out of commission, and that if they weren't trying to keep a low profile, they would have been able to access social services. To that I say: sure! Possible. But if we assume wizarding Britain more or less models contemporary Britain in terms of politics and culture — and frankly, wizarding Britain seems to lean more conservative, if anything — it's hard to imagine wizards having a more expansive welfare state than muggle Brits do. So I think you'd see homelessness and poverty among wizards, although it would obviously be tempered by the presence of magic.

the funniest thing about fire emblem disability/neurodivergent headcanons is that even though half of the cast in almost every game read as autistic to me, the concept probably doesn't exist in their world. i don't think any terminology for non-physical conditions exists, they'd just assume they're possessed by ghosts and try to treat depression with leeches or something. they're really trying their best
they have mind control magic luv. they definitely know about autism and quite a bit of psychology.
