thinking about how way to dawn really was like the most iconic keyblade ever that so neatly summarized riku's journey and ideals and had so much meaning and history and so uniquely his and kh3 really threw it away for a fucking car key

man im watching clips of y8 with the eng dub and its uh. i mean, kasuga and chitose sound alright? robbie daymond makes a decent zhao too (and can sing, damn), but the rest...............
#rambles#yakuza liveblogging#i think some VAs were straight up miscast#like kiryu and adachi sound WAY too young#and them + nanba + yamai all sound like theyre going for a voice thats way lower than their normal range#so it sounds very forced/unnatural- they shouldve just cast people with deeper voices if thats what they wanted#but others seem like a case of poor direction#like tomi sounds too...... peppy? i guess?#his character is very reserved/introverted so in jp he speaks with a pretty flat/monotonous affect most of the time#but in the dub he talks like a pretty normal somewhat outgoing dude so you lose that dimension of his character#same with joongi and seonhee- in jp they speak with a particular precision/sophistication#theyre leaders of a huge organization and as such are very careful with their words and you can hear that in their tone#but that element is completely missing from the eng dub#how kiryu's eng voice has been handled in particular is baffling- i know they recast him after 7 with some youtuber#which like. not knocking youtubers as a whole but the dude simply does not fit the part#and i looked up the VA they'd used for kiryu previously and he's fine? like nobody can ever be takaya kuroda but the old VA fit way better#plus hes like. actually close to kiryu's age (58) vs the new guy who's 32. and of course VAs can play characters of a variety of ages#but when the main problem with the new voice is that he sounds too young and you had a guy who sounds better and is the right age....#why recast him??? i dont get it. even if the old VA was no longer an option for some reason *surely* there was a better fit out there

Tumblr media
not too long ago you were watching the girona and barçelona match, knowing girona were doing good the season, there was already bad luck for barçelona. shot, after shot after shot from fermin and the others, the game ended with 2-4, you knew you’d be getting an upset fermin or just a non talkative fermin. you turned off the match the second they lost, you had texted fermin but you got left on opened, so there was your sign. an upset fermin, who knew what’d he be bringing home with the energy. now, you were currently laying on your bed, the lamp being the only source of light after you were writing on your book marking some pages, you grabbed your phone opening it and still no message nor call from him. the sounds of cars driving by and just the wind hitting by the window were heard, everything around you was quiet until the second the door was opened then slammed loudly, you sighed before flipping the page off your book as fermin walked in and looked at you, your eyes peeking out the book as you looked up at him. “no me mandaste mensaje de regreso..” (you didn’t send me a message back..) you said as he looked at you, “¿tuve que hacerlo?” (did i have to?) he said walking to the bathroom putting his stuff in the closet, you sighed putting your book down, rolling your eyes before you got up walking to the bathroom, “no..ni te importa..” (no..you don’t even care..) you mumbled as he looked at you, “como que no me importa? obviamente tu crees que estoy en buen humor.” (what do you mean i dont care? obviously you think i’m in a good mood.) he said before you looked at him, “mkay.” you said walking back inside the room before he slammed the bathroom door again, you got in the covers as you heard him turn the shower on.
you got in the covers laying down as you went on your phone, scrolling through instagram. nothing but a bunch of posts about today’s match, you looked at the bathroom door before you pulled off your shorts, now being in the tanktop and your panties as you grabbed your book again, filling in some of the pages. you were reading through before the door opened again after a few minutes, your eyes slowly peeked out of the book watching fermín walk around shirtless. you bit down on your lip before putting your book away, inside the nightstand drawer before you went on your phone. he was wearing just sweats and no shirt before he laid next to you going on his phone as well, you looked at him at the corner of your eye. he was definitely upset, you had something in mind but it was already late, “so no me vas hablar? o te vas a quedar callado como pendejo.” (so you’re not going to talk to me? or are you going to stay quiet like an idiot.) you said putting your phone away as he looked at you, “mejor cállate la boca.” (instead shut your mouth.) he said as you tilted your head, “en serio?” (seriously?) you said before he went quiet, the volume of his tiktok just being heard before grabbing his phone placing it on your nightstand as you cradled his lap sitting on his crotch. “talk to me..” you whispered cupping his cheek as he looked at you, you looked at him rubbing his cheek with your thumb, his breathing getting louder before he flipped you over. you giggled as your back hit the sheets, your head resting on the pillow, your arms wrapping around his neck as you pulled him closely, leaning into his ear. “take it out on me..i want to feel you..” you whispered as he chuckled, “works with me.” he said as you kissed him deeply, he kissed back holding onto your waist.
your lips moving with his as he pressed his body against yours, you felt his bulge slightly growing as you moaned once he bit down on your lip, his tongue slipping inside your mouth tongue fighting with yours. you smacked his arm before he pinned your hand above your head, you whined before he grabbed your chin pulling away from the kiss. “what’d you tell me? that i was allowed to take it out on you, i’m in charge. not you.” he said before you rolled your eyes as he slapped your hip, grabbing you from your back before he laid down. you were now on his lap, you looked at him before he tugged on the shirt, you swallowed nervously now thinking. what did you get yourself into. he lifted it up slightly, your boobs barely bouncing out as you slapped his hand off. “slappy much today?” he said, you attempted to crawl off before he pulled you down now infront of his bulge. you looked up at him as he chuckled at your reaction, “it’s not going to suck itself preciosa.” he said as you swallowed down your saliva before you pulled down his joggers, his cock aching under the fabric before your hands wrapped the hem of his boxers, pulling them down as his length sprung out now laying against his tummy. you licked a long stripe around his length as he groaned tugging your hair slightly, his hand wrapping behind your hair holding onto the back of your head as you stroked the rest of his cock that you couldn’t take in your mouth, his groans began getting louder as your tongue hit beneath his balls, you held in a gag. “fuuuck cariño..” he said before pulling your shirt up as your boobs popped out, you pulled your mouth away taking your shirt off as he smirked at your actions before you placed your mouth back around his length.
you continued bobbing your head as spit trickled down, you held onto his thighs before he sat up, he pushed your head down. your head bobbling deeply as you gagged around him, your tongue swirling around the base before more spit trickled down to his balls as you moaned around him. your heart fluttering and your pussy throbbing at the sounds of his groans and low moans, he thrusted his hips up into your mouth as you moaned around him again. your eyes tearing up at the burning sensation in your throat, you gripped onto his hips. “i-i ca..can’t..” you gurgled out before he pulled his cock out your mouth, you coughed as spit fell from the corner of your lip. you looked at him before he sat on his knees, “go on..” he said as you widened your eyes nodding your head, you wrapped your mouth around him again before he pushed your head down again thrusting his hips into your mouth, he began to fuck his cock into your mouth as you gripped onto his waist before he slapped your hand off. “remember what you said earlier? hm?” he said as you gagged around him before he pulled out your mouth, a string of saliva around the tip as you spat on his chest before he glared at you.
“en serio?”(are you serious?) he said as you swallowed down nervously before he pushed you down you were now laying against the pillows, your lips all plumped and your eyes glossy from the sensation. he opened your legs, spitting down onto you before he rubbed himself against your folds, a whine escaping from your lips before he slid himself inside your glistening hole. you arched your back at the stretch as he groaned out feeling you tighten up at first, “w-wait..” you said as he shook his head, “can’t.” he said before thrusting into you, pushing your hips down as you moaned loudly trying to cover your face into the pillows before he grabbed your jaw staring down at you, “you agreed to this. now deal with—“ he pulled your hips up looking for that specific spot, “—it.. s-so fucking tight.” he said groaning loudly before he thrusted harshly as your eyes rolled back with a moan of his name, your hands gripped onto the duvet as you felt him thrusting deeply into you, his hips thrusting slowly and hardly into you causing the bedboard to hit against the wall. you bit down on your lip as he fondled with your boob, “so glad i-i have you.” he whispered before burrying his face into your neck, thrusting into you. your legs slightly opening up even more as your cheeks tinted pink at the sound of your wetness combining with the sound of your skin slapping against his pelvic bone. your hands running down his back, scratching his back when you felt the tip of his cock hit your g-spot as your legs wrapped around his waist, his thrusts getting deeper. your moans getting louder as you whined in between your moans, “i-i need..m-more of..y-you..” you murmured as he chuckled, “mi princesa..” he whispered into your ear as you breathed shakily.
he continued thrusting as you shook your head he continued thrusting as you shook your head, he pounded into your g-spot over and over and over again. the butterflies in your stomach overwhelming you before he backed away from your neck, he chuckled before throwing both your legs onto his shoulder. the angle making it much deeper for him a groan spilling mouth as he watched your facial expressions. your brain was fucked out, your moans mewling out const even stopping. you cried out as he lifted your hips thrusting into your spot, you were about to bury your face into the white pillow before he grabbed your chin you look at him, you looked up at him. your eyes all teary as you saw sparkles in fermins eyes, you whined as he chuckled, “look at me hermosa..” he said as you nodded your head, your stomach starting to slowly warm around your lower area before he felt you tighten up around him, “close aren’t you?” he tilted his head as you nodded your head, he chuckled lowering down to your height as he kissed your forehead before he held onto your your hips, penetrating mercilessly into you as you choked on the air, “fermin! o-oh my g-god!” a whiny sound escaping your lips as he gripped your boobs slapping them, “so glad we agreed to this..fuck..” he groaned feeling you tighten again as you whined, his thrusts getting slower and harder at you tightening around him.
“i..i’m close..”
he pulled out before you whimpered at the emptyness, “why’d y-you..stop..” you said attempting to catch your breath before he pulled your legs off his shoulder as he kneeled down now infront of your clit, licking all over your juices. you screamed the over sensitivity starting to hit you as he sucked around your clitoral area, his tongue licking around your folds as your hand gripped onto his damped hair. “i-i can’t..f-fuck!” you screamed as you rolled your eyes at your orgasm, your hips lifting off the bed as he held onto your ass. you rode out your orgasm as you laid there, thighs shaking and your breathing being heavy.
he grabbed your waist turning you around to your stomach as you swallowed nervously, you moaned as he slapped your ass cheeks, “you don’t under-” he said pushing himself in, pulling his hips out before slamming his hips back in harshly, first time. “-stand, how much i tried.” he said as you moaned loudly into the sheets, your face burrying in the mattress before he pulled out again, “fucking..shot after—“ he said before slamming himself again, second time. a scream escaping from your lips as you gripped the sheets. “—shot after shot, i never made it in.” third time, as he said before thrusting harshly into you.
you screamed out yet again. you were slowly recovering from your previous orgasm, he was definitely angry.. as you were left with no time to adjust, no warnings. no nothing.
“i-i saw..” you said breathlessly as you moaned loudly at him pounding into your guts, you were biting into the sheets as he pounded harshly into you, pushing your back further as he gripped onto your hips tightly. his free hand slapping your ass taking his anger out on you as he chuckled, you were slightly shaking at the pain that wasn’t really turning into pleasure. “even the keeper tried to argue with me.” he said thrusting his hips in and out of you as he spoke, you gripped onto the duvet as he continued drilling his hips into you. he sneaked his hand under your tummy before his fingertips gazed across your clit, slightly rubbing on it as you shrieked, his hand rubbing in circles as he pounded himself into you. you moaned into the duvet as he rubbed your folds, suddenly you were at a frenzy. your eyes rolled to the back of your head, your body trembling and your eyebags all wet. he continued thrusting into you as you felt him twitch before he smacked your clit harshly. you screamed as you jolted at every thrust, you were crying underneath him as your moans covered the sounds of your sniffling before he began thrusting his cock sloppily inside you, “dios mío, estás temblando tanto.. joder! voy a-“ (oh my god, you’re shaking so much.. fuck! i’m going to-) he said before he shot his loads inside you, his cum filling you up before he pulled out as you fell on your stomach, you had your cheek resting on the duvet as he looked at you, “ven..” (come here..) he said as you sat up, your body all shaking and limped before he pulled you closely, carrying you to your spot on your bed before he laid next to you.
your head was resting on his chest, hearing his heartbeat pounding quickly as he was trying to recover from the session, you were somewhat still slightly tearing up as he looked down at you. “está bien..shhh..estoy aquí contigo..” (it’s okay..shh.. i’m here with you..) he said wiping your tears with his thumb, he kissed your forehead as you smiled lazily. “no te duele?” (does it hurt?) he said as you nodded your head, “p-poquito..no m-mucho..” you murmured, nuzzling your head against his chest, he chuckled rubbing your back in circles with his thumb as you smiled. “gracias por pensar en esta idea..” (thank you for thinking about this idea..) he said as you kissed his cheek, “mmmm..te a-amo..” (i love you) you said as he looked down at you smiling at your tone, “te amo mas preciosa.” (i love you more pretty.) he said before you rested your head on the pillow, he burried his face into your neck as you giggled as you heard him fall asleep, his hands wrapping around your waist as you two dozed off soundly.

gray and sharing screentime with himself
Tumblr media
in my current brainrot over a singular character, i decided to compile all the distinctions between gray and graham
looking at a very rough approximation of the screen time gray has throughout the show, the weird thing is that he is himself at the beginning and at the end.
graham takes many actions during s1 and s2 that differ from the gray we meet in the train in s1
Name: from found cut content from the original pilot of cs before netflix, it is carmen who suggests gray as graham's nickname. gray takes it without much care. graham, on the other hand, insists on his full name. seen in s2 ep7, both when carmen meets him up at the cafe and after FALLING FROM A PARAGLIDER. when asked his name during s4 ep3, his va emphasizes graham -- though i could be reading into things. guess brainwashing came along with a hatred with nicknames lol (probably to prevent carmen ever triggering gray's memories)
Life goal: we get gray's interview tape that showed his interest in vile, revealing not only was he a criminal before vile but he primarily "[wants] to be successful". (In cut content, during the detention scene where they all discuss code names, gray refuses sheena's suggestion of power failure because he didn't want to be thought of as a failure). gray joined vile because he didn't want to play within the system, believing he's deserving of success more than others due to his own skills so he's better off cheating the system. in contrast, graham in s1 ep6 declines being carmen's guide due to having to go to work early to fix something. He even declines carmen's payment for his work during s2 ep7, only stopped cuz carmen is good at dramatically disappearing. he is so diligent that within eight months, he was able to work up to be a lighting tech from just starting out as an electrician. meanwhile, he gave up being a junior electrican at the Sydney opera house as a teen due to disatisfaction (idk anything abt australia but isnt being a junior electrcian at the sydney opera house a big deal??)
Morality: most blatantly in his line "but we are the good guys" in s2 ep7 (i think he repeats this again during his interrogation with acme in s4), graham has a sense of morality that gray obviously would lack since he joined vile willingly. gray has no issues with stealing and has had a clear arrogance in his abilities ever since he was a teen. killing doesn't seem to be off the table for him, but he only does so if that compromises his mission. (for example, he gives chase a chance to leave during s4 ep 7, so he def isn't taking any excuse to take a life). graham's main act of "goodness" is risking his own life to save a kid in s4 ep3. while im sure gray is heartless enough to watch a kid die, i dont think he would be as ready to risk himself for a stranger. he likely would be more apathetic and would do so if it has some benefit to him or look the other way -- right after saving the kid, "crackle" steals the nameless kid's wallet with a smile. from his confrontation with carmen in the himalyas, he responds to carmen using his old words as him being an "innocent fool", dimissing whatever he believed then as not his own
crackle is another semi identity we get from gray during the fugue state he enters following regaining his memories from acme. it seems to be just due to how drastic the memories are for graham's mind to handle, the split is very direct, with "crackle" - all of gray's training and criminal instincts - being pretty non verbal (he does i think talk on the phone with vile once) and expresionless (he does have an evil little smile after stealing nameless kid's wallet but thats abt it). it honestly is dropped fast once gray is arrested (had to bolt the moment it faced consequences or whatever lol) but it def was entertaining to watch
overall it is just so odd how gray himself is barely in show and if u were to cut out the graham stuff, gray's arc of reconciling his relationship with carmen is largely unchanged. goes to show how wasted the cool amnesia plot stuff was (tho i like brainwashing angst, but i dont blame anyone for not enjoying it. it takes away a lot of the autonomy gray could've had in actually making his morally gray decisions). it honestly feels like they pumped the break of the brainwashing angst we were getting from gray and give it to carmen for the final arc tbh

Fun fluffy animes that I loved
This is basically a list of animes that helps get over or deal with the trauma inflicted by various animes. At the moment, I guess fellow JJK fans might need this, and prolly AOT fans on November 5. Have fun watching
Haikyuu
Tumblr media
Short Synopsis: Determined to be like the volleyball championship's star player nicknamed "the small giant", Shoyo joins his school's volleyball club.
Episodes: 85 + 5 OVA
The worst thing that can possibly happen is either the 3rd year students graduating or you being unable to support a specific team (nah cuz bro how do you pick and root for one? I end up being happy for the team that won and depressed for the team that lost)
Two movies are coming up soon
Highschool Babysitters
Tumblr media
Synopsis: After the sudden death of their parents on a plane crash, two young brothers named Ryūichi Kashima (a freshman in high school) and his younger brother Kotarō (a preschooler) are left orphaned and having no place to call home. The chairwoman of the prestigious Morinomiya Academy offers to take the boys into her care, giving them a new house and free tuition, on the condition that Ryuichi helps out with the school's daycare center while also attending normal classes during school hours.
Episodes: 12 + 1 OVA
Note: Plane crash seems sad but trust me, its only mentioned in the first episode, and the rest 11 is just fluffy goodness. Nothing can prepare you for the cuteness.
Cells At Work
Tumblr media
Synopsis: One newcomer red blood cell just wants to do her job. Between bacteria incursions and meeting a certain white blood cell, she's got a lot to learn.
Episodes: 31 + 7
A good mix of science and entertainment. The episodes dont have to be watched in any specific order.
Mr. Osomatsu
Tumblr media
Synopsis: The everyday lives of identical sextuplets who cause mischief.
Episodes: 75 + special eps + movies
Has a good amount of 18+ jokes, but its not too overwhelming. It doesnt necessarily follow a plot, and each episode is usually two different stories combined. So, skipping episodes should be fine. Also, it features very popular voice actors for the sextuplets (Geto's VA, Gojo's VA, Levi's VA, Koro sensei's VA, Erwin's VA and Haku/ Sugawara's VA), Iyami (Obanai Iguro's VA), Totoko (Shoko's VA)
The Vampire Dies in No Time
Tumblr media
Synopsis: The story follows the famed vampire hunter, Ronaldo, who receives a job to destroy the supposedly invincible vampire lord Draluc and rescue a human boy he allegedly kidnapped.
Episodes: 24
Note: Its a hit or miss, the running gag is used constantly and gets tiring at times, but the overall anime is a good watch. I personally loved John the Armadillo
Buddy Daddies
Tumblr media
Synopsis: Assassins Kazuki Kurusu and Rei Suwa meet Miri, a girl looking for her father on Christmas Day. Kazuki, Rei, and Miri unexpectedly end up living together.
Episodes: 12
May get dark at times, so I wont guarantee that itll be a smooth sail, but we get a wholesome conclusion so you can count on that! Otherwise VERY fluffy
Blue Lock
Tumblr media
Synopsis: High school soccer players from across Japan gather for a controversial project designed to create the best and most egoistic striker in the world.
Episodes: 24
Isnt exactly true football, but yeah. The anime is pretty fine. It doesnt exactly go under the fluffy anime like i mentioned in the title, but you can check it out if you want.
Free!!
Tumblr media
Synopsis: The story is centered on high school student Haruka Nanase, a gifted swimmer. After encountering his childhood rival, Rin Matsuoka from Samezuka Academy, he and his friends revitalize Iwatobi High School's swim team.
Episodes: 37 + specials and movies
This anime to me, personally is what haikyuu is. A great comfort anime which knows how to make the viewer connect with the characters. I dislike it when the whole anime gets reduced to just fanservice, like guys lets look beyond that and actually enjoy the plot.
Life Lessons With Uramichi Oniisan
Tumblr media
Synopsis: From smoking and exercising to nihilistic outbursts, everyone's big brother Uramichi always brings up the not-so-moral side to his life lessons
Episodes: 13
This one is very real and relatable in many levels. Theres a lot of screenshots and panels available online, so you can check a few out before watching!
Obey Me
Tumblr media
Synopsis: Brothers Lucifer, Mammon, Leviathan, Satan, Asmodeus, Beelzebub, and Belphegor are among the most powerful demons in the Devildom, serving as officers on the student council at the Royal Academy of Diavolo (RAD). However, being avatars of the seven deadly sins, their behaviors often tend toward the extreme. Their everyday antics belie their high status and fearsome reputations among others of their kind. When viewed behind the scenes, the members of this family are more lovable—and laughable—than they first seem!
Episodes: 24 + 1
It's based on a popular otome game, and can be watched as it is even if you havent played the game. The basic idea is that theyre based on the 7 sins, so their personalities are really amusing. As for the plot, its pretty wholesome.
Play It Cool Guys
Tumblr media
Synopsis: Despite their distinctive personalities, Souma Shiki, Hayate Ichikura, Shun Futami, and Takayuki Mima all have one thing in common: though naturally clumsy, the four disguise their embarrassment from tiny slip-ups by maintaining a composed demeanor. However, it is actually the guys' airheaded natures that makes the girls' hearts throb. No matter what happens in their daily lives, the boys do their best not to lose their cool!
Episodes: 24
Each episode is barely 10-13 minutes, so it just doesnt feel enough lol. Most of their slip ups are relatable and could get a chuckle from the viewer. The art style is a little different but its good. Definitely worth watching, once or even multiple times.
Tanaka Kun is Always Listless
Tumblr media
Synopsis: For high school student Tanaka, the act of being listless is a way of life. Known for his inattentiveness and ability to fall asleep anywhere, Tanaka prays that each day will be as uneventful as the last, seeking to preserve his lazy lifestyle however he can by avoiding situations that require him to exert himself. Along with his dependable friend Oota who helps him with tasks he is unable to accomplish, the lethargic teenager constantly deals with events that prevent him from experiencing the quiet and peaceful days he longs for.
Episodes: 13 + specials
Not gonna lie, Ive wanted to act like Tanaka. The characters are lovable and the anime is worth giving a try. An underrated gem. I personally loved the school festival episode.
@satoruukisser hope this helps!

SEMIFINALS: Max Goof (Disney)/Yakko Warner (Animaniacs) VS Dimentio (Super Paper Mario)/Jevil (Deltarune)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Propaganda for Max Goof/Yakko Warner:
I just like them. I think its cute. Romeo and juliet vibes because theyre from different studios, Disney vs warner brothers. They're both funny, dorky guys, and they bring out the best in each other. Plus only child vs overworked older child turned parent is a really good dynamic too.
YAX SWEEP
#YAX SWEEEEEEEEP!!!!!!
#yakko x max opened my third eye #this needs to be a thing
Cameo of Max's VA expressing approval of the ship~!
#YAX SWEEP #LETS GOOO
#yax propagandists ASSEMBLE
#yax sweep #they deserve it
Ok I keep forgetting to submit my own Yax propoganga but I have put so much thought into them.
They have the same sense of humor, we literally see them tell almost identical jokes. They’re both such dramatic showoffs and they both are schemers, they're both the brains of their group (friends v family)
They’re complimentary.
They’re foils.
Beause Yakko isn’t as open with his emotions, he’s more sarcasti. But Max has been truthful about what he feels since Goof Troop. It's there on the surface and he communicates and understands in ways that would be SO good for Yakko. They're two sides of the same coin. They are opposites but they support each others weaknesses. Yakko wants so badly to make people laugh, and it’s so important to him to do so. His self worth is connected to it, but Max doesn’t like his laugh and suppresses it. It practically writes itself. So yeah, there’s all the fun WB/Disney forbidden lovers, but it works off a dynamic that would already work really well. That's why I like them so much
Propaganda for Dimentio/Jevil:
#JEVENTIO MADE IT IN!!
They’re both insane clowns, they both have purple and yellow in their colors, they both (if you make it to Jevil’s fight) make an effort to kill the player, there’s so much in common.
Silly little guys who kill
CLOWNS
#JEVENTIO SWEEP #I love my chaotic bastards
#JEVENTIO
#GET THOSE CLOWNS TO THE TOP OF THE BRACKET #CMONNNNNN
#as the number one jeventio fan i order ya'll to vote jeventio #PLS PLS PLS PLS PLS PLS PLS #I CAN'T BELIEVE I'M SEEING THE SHIP GET RECOGNITION THO THIS IS INSANE
#yay for the clowns!!! #I hope they win this!!
#please vote jeventio!!! #it's a lot more fun!!
#JEVENTIO SWEEP!! #two chaotic clowns is a match made in heaven!!
#JEVENTIO SWEEEEEP
#JEVENTIO?!???? #GO FOR THE CLOWNS YOU DONT UNDERSTAND #spm 🤝 deltarune (having a singular goofy jester. they’re in love btw) #manipulative evil bastard who almost destroyed the ENTIRE MULTIVERSE #x chaotic little ball whos fully convinced you’re all trapped and doomed #also they’re both non-binary. if you even care
I really feel like Jevil and Dimentio would level each other out well! Sure they’re both villains, but that doesn’t make their ship any less sweet!
#GO GO JEVENTIO! WIN WIN WIN!
#VOTE JEVENTIO!! just because something is chaotic doesn’t mean it’s any less loving!!

Night Out
Female Lead: A necromundian named Smoothie Universe/AU: Warhammer 40k/Yandere Space Marine Canon Status: I dont have any Yandere Custodes so not canon yet?
Note: This one was HARD because I don't exactly have any Yandere Custodes made. I'm still figuring out how to portray the Custodes and how much from Fanon/funny vas (like DreadAnon/My Golden Buddy/TTS) I'm going to be incorporating. (But this is less about how it is and more of what I'm trying to do)
She missed Necromunda that much was obvious as some glammed up tall boy told her she was going to be the cause for some great triumph. Yeah Smoothie heard that one before of some drugged out man getting higher then the spire. That was some really good shit she smoked too!
She crawled up the vent as she was going up and away from the area that made her nose bleed. She lived in a hive long enough to know if something was making you bleed you were most likely already dying but hey a little bit of radiation here and there wasn't going to kill her any faster. Though she was confused as she fulfilled what she needed to do... she had a kid... gross little thing with a grosser man but whatever if the Throne man said her kid was going to become important then she'd do it.
The glam man had asked her a funny question. Why she wasn't so torn up... a kid should be something that brings good memories about a good time. Everything in the lower hives was about survival and well having a kid was no easy choice like those upper hivers getting to have kids like its no one's business. She wasn't torn up because she didn't really care about the guy she had the kid with.
Maybe she shouldn't have answered and just fucked off then she wouldn't have been dragged to Terra. She grinned as she knew he was probably trying to find her, serves him right for putting trackers into her.
Smoothie crawls up the vent before kicking the gilded piece of metal open and breathing in the relatively clean air this high up. "God my tits are freezing." She mutters as she pulls herself up and stretches as she sits down on one of the golden gargoyles and waits for. "There you are big guy took ya long enough to find me."
She feels his massive hand grab the back of her jacket just like he did back in the hive. A man doesn't grab a lady like that for no reason... hell the rations he got for her always tasted better and she'll admit she was getting pampered here with some fancy golden collar. She smacked his hand, "Fuckin sit down feather brain." She says in reference to his plume.
"Smoothie." His voice rumbled with some slight annoyance.
"Just fuckin sit with me and enjoy the night out." She says lighting up some scum lho as she looks out at the golden sea. "Its pretty aint it..."
She feels him wrap her in his purple cloak as she is plucked from the gargoyle and into his lap. "Why did you need to come all the way out here."
"When we were coming in the first time I saw this... first time I saw anything from so high up." She says and her eyes sparkle with the same glow that she held when they were above terra at night when she was arriving. "I'm so use to being under everything seeing all the wires and the ugly underbelly and all the shit they try to hide but this... " She lets the blue green smoke roll out of her mouth. "It's pretty... and not so gaudy like everything else here. Who the fuck even decorated it's so much gawkin gold." She says with a chuckle as his massive arm wraps around her.
"Thank you for giving me a reason to... have a... night out." He says with a sigh as his stuffy demeanor melts a little as he holds her tightly and Smoothie just chuckles.
"Of course big guy I mean least this sewer rat you brought home can do for you." She kisses his faceplate grinning as she leaves a neon green kiss mark on the gold.

I finished hazbin hotel last night, and while it was mostly not very good, the finale was decent.
This has nothing to do with tdau, but what’s your opinion on the hazbin/helluva boss franchise? (If you have one)
keep in mind i never finished hazbin: i think the majority of it is cheap shock humour like south park except its not even trying to say anything, its just trying to be edgy for the sake of being edgy. one of my friends really likes it and even he admits it sucks at points. we both like sir pentious but ive heard hes literally a caricature of one of vivs ex friends she hates and wanted to make fun off. i hate how the only lesbian is vaggie. i liked vox, and think his musical number with alastor was the only good one, although i only watched the first two episodes. my friend who likes hazbin also thinks all the musical numbers suck, however, so ive got it on good authority from a smart man who i trust the opinion of (love you bestie if you want me to continue watching for you i will xx)
helluva boss, even though i only watched season 1 (maybe an episode or two from season 2), was a lot better than hazbin. it was funnier (i really love brandon rogers' work. when i heard him do the bryce voice for katie killjoy i was excited bc i thought his involvement meant hazbin was gonna be a lot better than the pilot. it was not) the animation was SLIGHTLY less overdone (from what ive seen thats not even true anymore) even though i didnt really care for most of the characters i did like a couple (blitzo is your classic brandon rogers "asshole with problems you sympathise with before they remind you theyre an asshole". fizzarolli and asmodeus were VERY cute and alex brightman is a talented VA)
i think the fact she got kesha, a SINGER, to voice a character, but ONLY THE SPEAKING VOICE, is literally the dumbest thing ive ever heard in my life. it makes me so goddamn angry. if you couldnt afford her to sing, get someone else. dont get a SINGER to voice a character who SINGS but NOT VOICE THEM SINGING. ITS SO FUCKING STUPID. WHAT THE HELL. HOW DOES SHE SLEEP AT NIGHT. I AM SO SORRY KESHA. I AM SO SORRY THE GUY WHO SIR PENTIOUS WAS BASED OFF. IM SO SORRY EVERY GENERALLY RESPECTED VA OR BROADWAY ACTOR WHO NOW HAS THIS PERMANENTLY ON THEIR IMDB PAGE. KEITH DAVID YOU DESERVE SO MUCH BETTER!

Doing this completely anon cause I'm genuinely scared of the backlash that may occur - This is controversial and also contradictory so im willing to be shat on for this hot take.
Charles cannot seriously be hoping to win races and be a world champion. I've got no proof just my own absurd theories but I seriously cannot see him becoming a wc. Lando is the same. They both are so alike. One bad race or bad moment and they shit on themselves and lose control and take a week to bounce back from it. I as much as I have love for them and am starting to think they genuinely believe they will win a dc. Oscar and Carlos are the only ones who could on either team as it currently stands. Unlike merc where George could in the team even tho he is lewis' teamate he actually could. But Charles and lando can't unless they change their mindset and team. And tbh to some extent I see both Charles and lando not nearly serious enough about f1 at the moment. And I know 'social media is fake and only shows so much blah blah blah we dont know them personally' but if they gave a fuck they'd risk the money and try and get into redbull. They'd risk thier paychecks and get the money invested into the team. And again I know I don't know what is happening behind the scenes and I'm whatever for saying this but Charles won't win a dc and neither will lando. Max is by far the most authentic, marketable, talented and most relatable driver and I'm a lewis girl (well more lance than lewis but just showing my bias that typically happens with lewis fans).
- Charles isn't dedicated (I believe)
- lando isn't either
- neither will win a wdc
- this celebrity branding thats going on is fucking ridiculous, lewis and max (although he's not nearly as willing to want the title) are the only ones who truly deserve it
- Daniel while yes is charismatic isn't all that talented anymore and would do better in another series. (I included Daniel cause I thought of the celeb status and him)
- and also drivers can only be so relatable and likeable as long as they stay grounded and don't seem so big for their boots and tbh again as a lewis fan (initally) I'm just not really caring for him and the va va voom of him anymore (that was wierd admitting) and when Charles is getting more 'celeb-like' he becomes more unlikable same with lando...
This was long and I apologise 😭🫶🏻
WOAH. Okay we about to get trashed for this but ya know what, idc, I partially agree with you.
I don’t think Charles, or Lando, will ever win a WDC. I think of the two of them Charles is the one with the real shot, because I think he has a much stronger mentality than Lando. I don’t think the pressure gets to him for pressure’s sake the way it does with Lando. I think where Charles knows he doesn’t have the equipment he gets desperate, and mistakes happen. Whereas Lando just can’t seem to hold it together over a weekend, and I think a lot of what affects Lando happens outside the car, which is why he would crumble in a title fight. That said, I think time will run out for Charles, George, Carlos, Lando, etc. Those teams won’t catch up to Red Bull before ‘26 and by then Oscar, and whoever else has come in from the next generation will be younger and hungrier, and the next cycle will start. For me, they will miss their window. I won’t say for sure but that’s my feeling, and if by the end of next season the Ferrari team is not operating like Red Bull (meaning they have a clear #1 driver, and their strategy and pit stops are where they need to be) it will be clear that not even Fred can change the tide and they are an unserious team where Charles will waste his talent.
I disagree that it would be a smart idea to get into Red Bull. Tbh I don’t think Red Bull would want Charles, but that’s another issue. That team is Max’s and it will be until he leaves (or suddenly can’t drive a car anymore but that won’t happen). As a driver, you have to think you’re the best driver, but I don’t think either Charles or Lando is delulu enough to think that they could beat Max in Max’s Red Bull (and this is not me saying they build the car for Max, I’m saying that when Newey hands you a car and Max is saying “make it faster” and everything you do to the car to make it driveable only makes it slower…you are fighting a losing battle). Red Bull would not only be a waste of time for them, but yes, probably a big financial loss, because they both benefit from marketing themselves as #1 drivers at the moment.
I have to say, I agree that it doesn’t seem to me that Charles is as committed to being WDC as he could be. Disclaimer - this is purely based off vibes, I don’t know the guy. I’m not saying he’s not doing his job, he absolutely is, but the self promotion levels, at a time when the results are not resulting…signals to me he’s branching out. I talked a lot last season about how I think he’s transitioning out of the “Il Predestinato” image, and how I felt part of that is because it is becoming less likely that he will win a WDC. I think it’s clever of him to think about doing other things though, because so much of what it takes to get a dc is out of his control, and he doesn’t even have the bare bones of a team or a car that will let him challenge for a title. There is no point in him waiting around for Ferrari to get it together, if they get it together he can revisit but right now…I think it’s in his best interest to get his bag.
I don’t think there’s many similarities between Charles and Lando’s path here, Lando is a wholeeee other essay 😂
But I disagree that the branding is ridiculous, I think it’s a logical thing to do. Yes these guys make good money from their teams but that won’t last forever, they have pretty short careers. It’s good for them to use their platform to build income streams for themselves that will go beyond their F1 career. Charles previously hadn’t been able to do that and now he is, which is definitely a positive. I will give Max and his team props here because I think he’s sneakily got the best alternative income streams of anyone. Verstappen.com must absolutely be raking it in with those grandstand deals, the merch is consistent, his brand deals are minimal but they’re big and they stick with him. My point is, drivers do need alternative income streams, especially when their brand can’t just be “I win”.
Lewis a master at this, I will admit, I just don’t like his brand. But it is consistent and he has managed to transcend F1 as his own brand which will keep him comfortable for the rest of his life, so good for him. I don’t buy into the brand but the brand is branding, I have to recognise.
I don’t really get Charles’s brand identity yet lol so I can’t tell if how likeable it will be. I mean, currently he is very liked, it’s possible it will stay that way. I really couldn’t say. I think Lando is about to have an unlikeable season but I also think his “babygirl brat” thing is pretty amusing and won’t ultimately alienate his fan base.
It was long but it was fun. The villagers will come for us with pitchforks for this opinion though.

oh my god. oh my GOD mechs esmp crossover. this is for SUCH a niche audience the esmp fandom is dead i dont care mechs esmp crossover
LISTEN TO ME okay ill have to add a sci-fi element to my established esmp world i am OKAY with this, grimlands are already victorian steampunk its not that big a stretch to add space travel, especially in the place of dimension travel.
okay so in my esmp lore the emperors are blessed by the gods with conditional immortality and flight, they know a new ruler has been born by if they're born with wings. i bet though i could twist that into the king cole/olympians idea of trading their citizen's lives for immortality. although it is kinda reversed? (mechs immortals tend to stop aging but can be killed, emperors still age and can die of old age, but cant be killed). hmm i mean theres definite differences between king cole and the olympians so maybe its just another variation, or something closer to the mechs themselves? though that ones less likely
honestly there literally is an esmp1 musical so i reckon its interesting enough to attract the mechs
but lets be honest with ourselves here, the only reason im doing this is so i have an excuse to draw grimlands!marius lmao
i think raph would be interested in it too though, with how they're so much more reliant on technical advancement than magical.
ivy would love the rivendell library, and crystal cliffs
hmmm jonny might have fun between mythland and the cod empire,,,
hmmmm brian would maybe like to hang out with shrub in the undergrove? he does like his garden,, maybe the overgrown with katherine too,, or gilded helianthia!
hrm,, i keep wanting to put people in the grimlands but i know thats only because its my favourite so therefore the most developed and also the most similar in vibe to the mechs
with that said though, tim really would have fun there,, like hes the gunpowder guy!! fwhip is the gunpowder guy!! they both r in charge of weapons!! guns, crossbows, same difference really
oough back to raph i think she and fwhip would bond over making their own wings,, fwhip made his to prove that he is fit to rule after gem fucked off to wizard school and raph,, uh actually i never found out raphs backstory beyond the fact im like 78% sure she made her and marius' mechanisms,, although that could be widely accepted fanon who knows not me
i think marius would also enjoy mezelea
but OH MY GOD TOY SOLDIER IN MEZELEA,,, i cant believe i almost forgot it,, i think it would immediately blend in with the clones and pretend to be one right up until they leave the planet, and have the time of its life the whole time,,
i dont know where ashes would go either.. i cant just say grimlands again because theres like four of them there already but,, the explosions!!
maybe mythland, or rivendell, those both seem like they'd appreciate a good mob boss taking over the place tbh
i think brian would get along with pix also
okay this isnt mechs but the fandom is a circle so if theres actually any fans of both out there reading this post, has anyone else noticed just how similar pix and jon's (tma) voices are?? genuinely when i started listening to the podcast i had to double check the va wasnt pix (and imagine my confusion when they share the same name too..)
anyways if anyone wants to scream about this with me please do, or if you want to know more about my esmp expanded universe feel free to do that too! in asks replies or reblogs idm

Fate Charles Leclerc Story…
Tumblr media
…Chapter 11…
Waking up felt like a dream... like a pinch me moment... 
I never thought someone like Charles would ever express interest in me. Charles was a world famous racer and I was just an ordinary girl from Miami Florida. What did he even see in me? The self doubt was starting to set in... Charles was this handsome, funny, kind man... and I was just an ordinary girl who worked as a nanny. 
We spent the night cuddling in bed talking until we both had fallen asleep. I had fallen asleep wrapped up in Charles arms with my back pressed against his chest the weight of Charles arm resting on my waist. 
For the first time in forever, I fell asleep feeling safe and cared for. There was something about Charles that made me feel so comfortable and safe since the moment I met him. 
Everything with him just felt right like there was an invisible string pulling us together from the moment we met at the airport... almost as if we were destined to be together. 
From the moment I met Charles he has done nothing but prove to me that he is a gentleman... I had only known Charles for less than a month and he was proving to me he was nothing like my past relationships. 
I could feel Charles start to stir in his sleep as he wrapped his arms tighter around me slowly pulling me closer into his chest, sighing in content.   A faint smile forming on his face as I kissed his forehead. 
Flashbacks of the night before fresh in my mind... we spent most of the day cuddled on the couch as we discussed our childhood memories... our goals and dreams. We sat for hours talking and enjoying each others company. 
Charles even tried to impress me with his cooking skills as he made pasta for dinner. Everything felt different in regards to Charles... and for the first time in forever I felt cared for and happy. 
"Morning Belle," whispered Charles, his voice raspy as he slowly started to wake up, "God you're so beautiful." 
Charles leaning forward to his my forehead as he sighed happily... he still couldn't believe that I was finally his. He had dreamed about last night since the moment he met you and it was better then he could have ever imagined. 
I rolled over slightly so that Charles and I were facing each other. I reached up with my hand and brushed the hair out of Charles eyes before kissing his lips lightly. I couldn't help but giggle as I pulled away from the kiss, as Charles had an adorable pout on his face as soon as your lips left his. 
"Mmm...more kisses." He moaned as he pulled your lips back onto his, deepening the kiss. "That's better." He said as soon as your lips left his once again.
"Am I dreaming or are you really here?" Questioned Charles jokingly  as he started to pinch himself. 
I couldn't contain my giggle as I said "yes, I'm really here."
"Can we just stay in bed all day?" Questioned Charles just as his cell phone started ringing from it place one the bedside table. 
Groaning Charles rolled over and picked up the phone, "Bonjour maman. Comment vas-tu?" he said sweetly into the phone. (Good Morning Mom. How are you?)
My eyes slightly widened as I heard Charles start talking to his mom... I wonder if she had also seen the new paper article. 
"Je vais bien Charles. C'est la fille dont tu me parlais ? La fille de l'aéroport ?" (Im good Charles. Is that the girl you were telling me about? The girl from the airport?)
Charle winked at me, "Oui maman. Je lui ai finalement demandé d'être ma petite amie." (yes mom. I finally asked her to be my girlfriend.)
"tu avais l'air si heureux sur la photo du journal. Quand puis-je la rencontrer?" (you looked so happy in the picture from the news paper. When can I meet her?)
"Je ne connais pas maman... Peut-être bientôt ?"  Charles said as he kissed my forehead, and started to play with fingers with the hand that was not holding the phone. (I dont know Mom...Maybe soon?)
"Ce soir Charles... Je préparerai même ton plat préféré." (Tonight Charles...I will even make your favourite food. )
"Mais maman." Charles started to say before getting cut off by his mom.  (But Mom)
"Je ne prends pas non comme réponse Charles." Pascal said before hanging up the phone.  (Im not taking No as an answer Charles.)
Charles shook his head laughing as he set his phone back on the bedside table and kissed my lips. 
"My mom wants to meet you tonight..." Charles said as he studied my face hoping for a good reaction to what he had just told me. 
"Really?" I questioned, "I would love to meet her." I leaned in to kiss him once again on the lips. 
"Are you sure? I know its pretty early into our relationship to be meeting my mom." Questioned Charles with a big smile on my face. 
"Yes Im sure Charles, I want to meet the women who raised you to be such a gentleman." I said as I smiled at him.
"Why are you so perfect Belle?" Charles said as he looked at me with such admiration in his eyes. 
I blushed at his words and I smiled at him, "when are we heading to your moms house?"
"Whenever we want... she didn't give me a time. " Charles said smiling at me. 
"Oh My God... I hope she likes me." I said as panic started to sink in... "what should I wear?"
"Belle, she is going to love you. Your amazing." Charles said as he gave ne a reassuring smiles. "as for clothing, I like what your wearing now," teases Charles. 
I couldn't help but roll my eyes, currently I was wearing my underwear and one of Charles Ferrari t-shirts that was two sizes to big for me. 
"I don't think I should have my ass showing when I meet your mom." I said as I sat up in bed. 
"Fine..." teased Charles as he stood up from bed... he leaned down and kissed my forehead before he made his way to the doorway heading into the hallway. "I'll be right back, stay there princess." 
"Okay," you giggled as you shook your head smiling... it honestly felt like you were in a dream. 
Not to long after Charles disappeared into the kitchen he came back holding a tray filled with two coffees and some cut up fruits with some yogurt and granola. 
You couldn't help the gasp that escaped your lips at the sight of Charles looking as sexy as ever wearing only shorts carrying some breakfast in bed for you. No one has ever done something like this for you before. 
"For you my Belle," Charles said as he placed the try down in front of you. Quickly climbing into bed so that his back was touching the backboard of his bed. Smiling he pulled you into his arms so that you were sitting in front of him in between his legs so that your back was up against his chest. 
"Thanks Charles," I said as I leaned up and kissed the base of his neck snuggling into the warmth of his body, before reaching down and picking up a piece of fruit placing it in-front of Charles lips so that he could have a bite. Smiling as he took a bite of the strawberry.
"My turn," Charles said as he reached down and picked up a piece of cut up pineapple and placed it in my mouth. 
"Mmm, my favourite,"  I said as a soft moan escaped my lips as soon as the sweet pineapple was placed in my mouth. 
"Belle," he groaned at the sound of the moan escaping my lips. 
I smirked at him, before reaching forward to pick up one of the two coffee mugs that were sitting on the tray. 
I couldn't help but feel at ease as Charles and I sat eating breakfast in bed and sipping coffee as we sat talking. 
Charles had to leave for a training session with Andre, so we said goodbye to each other and headed our separate ways. 
By the time I got back to the apartment Lucy was also arriving. We shook our heads laughing as we opened the door of the apartment 
"Well...well...well...what do we have here?" joked Max shaking his head as both Lucy and I arrived back home. 
"Oh Max, Leave the poor girls alone," Kelly teased as she also walked into the room where we were all standing. 
"So Elle?" Questioned Kelly, curious to know how last nights conversation went after I had gotten the advice from her especially  because I didn't come home last night. 
"Well...I'm officially  joining the F1 WAG group," I replied with a big smile on my face as I remembered the night before. 
"Woohoo," Kelly exclaimed as she pulled me in for a big hug "I'm so freaking happy for you, you deserve all the happiness in the world." 
" What!" Exclaimed Lucy as she gave me a look to spill the tea, "Apparently I missed a lot last night."
"Charles asked me to be his girlfriend last night," I  said as I gave Lucy a grin. "How was your night with Lando?" 
Instantly Lucy started blushing, "it was amazing Elle.. we just sat and talked the whole night until we both fell asleep cuddling on his couch." 
"I'm so happy for you Luce." I said as I gave her a big hug. 
"He is so different Elle, he's not like any other guy I have ever been on a date with. He actually seemed interested in getting to know me better instead of just wanting sex from me." 
Lucy didn't really have a good track record when it came to dating. Most of the guys she went on dates with only wanted one thing, and as soon as they got it they would end up ghosting her. They would only put in enough effort to get what they wanted and then they disappeared into the night... never to be heard from again. 
Lucy has a heart of gold and anyone would be lucky to be with her, and my only hope is that Lando also realizes what an amazing women she is. 
"Okay... I think this is my cue to leave," joked Max as he stood up from the couch and made his way towards the front door, kissing Kelly before heading out to meet up with his trainer. 
Laughing as Max left the apartment I turned my attention back to the ladies, "I need both of your help."
"Ooh what do you need help with?" Asked Kelly intrigued. 
"I'm meeting Charles mom tonight... she phoned Charles this morning and demanded that he bring me over to meet me." 
"No way!" Gasped Lucy in shock "your meeting his mother already."
"Ooh you are going to love Pascale" Kelly said as she smiled at Elle. "I've met her a couple of times she is amazing." 
"Jeez, I'm so nervous... I need some help picking out an outfit."
"Don't worry Elle, we will find you the perfect outfit." Kelly said as she grabbed your hand and started dragging you towards her closet.
"Okay, I'm thinking Jeans with a really cute sweater. What do you think Lucy?" Kelly said as soon as we step into her huge walk in closet. 
"Ooh paired with a pair of cute heel booties." Suggested Lucy as she looked at all the different pairs of shoes Kelly owned. 
"Here," Kelly said as she shoved the clothing into my arms, lightly pushing me towards her bathroom door. 
Laughing at my two best friends I made my way into the bathroom to try on the outfit. 
Stepping out of the bathroom, I made my way over to the mirror to see what the outfit looked like on. It was the perfect outfit... the prefect mixture of cute and conservative.
As soon as I got the text from Charles saying that he was ready to go. I grabbed my purse and made my way downstairs to meet Charles in the lobby. 
Charles eyes lit up as soon as he stepped out of the elevator and locked eyes with me. "Elle, you look so beautiful," 
Within seconds Charles was standing in front of me pulling me into his arms and kissing me on the forehead murmuring just loud enough for me to hear him 'I'm such a lucky guy.'  
Charles looked as handsome as ever wearing blue jeans, a white T-shirt and a black leather jacket. 
"Thanks Charles, you look handsome," I said as looked up at my boyfriend. 
I couldn't help but check out my hot boyfriend. I still couldn't believe that one of the worlds hottest drivers was my boyfriend. Surely I was one of the luckiest women in the world. 
"You ready to go my belle?" 
Nodding my head, Charles gave me a smile as he grabbed my hand slowly bringing it to his lips before placing a gentle kiss on my hand. Winking at me before moving his hand towards the lower part of my back, Gently leading me towards the parking garage.  
Charles stopped in front of a red Ferrari and opened the door for me. I couldn't help  the shocked expression on my face as I sat down in the Ferrari, I had never been in such a nice car before. 
Charles couldn't help but laugh at my expression as he shut my door and made his way to the drivers seat. 
 "Babe, you're going to have to get used to driving in style." Charles teased as he put the car in drive and made his way out of the parking garage and into the busy streets of Monaco.  
Watching Charles drive through the streets of Monaco was so hot and the way he concentrated on the roads made me melt into a puddle. It didn't help that while he was driving he had one hand on the steering wheel while the other hand rested on my thigh as he absentmindedly rubbed up and down on my thigh.
We listened to the radio as we drove through the streets of Monaco, Charles pointing out things for me to see while we drove to his mothers house. 
"Who will be at your moms place tonight?" I questioned randomly as the nerves started to kick in... holy shit I was meeting Charles mother the day after we made it official and a month after our first meeting. 
"My mother Pascale, and I think maybe my younger brother Arthur who still lives at home," Charles said as he looked over at me and smiles reassuringly. 
"Hey..." I teased "Eyes on the road mister...you're carrying precious cargo." 
"Don't worry... I'm an excellent driver!" Joked Charles as he stepped on the gas pedal making the car jolt at the sudden increase in speed. Causing me to jump in my seat I shook my head at my crazy boyfriend as laughter filled the car. "Plus it's my job to drive fast belle." 
"Maybe we should talk to Max about driving slower every once in awhile  so that you can have the fastest car, " I teased Charles as I stuck my tongue out at him. I may not know much about racing but I did know Redbull has one of the fastest cars on the circuit. 
"Im deeply offended," teased Charles as he lifted his hand of my thigh and placed it on his chest. 
"We are here," Charles said as he pulled up in front of a beautiful house. 
Before we could even step out of the car, the front door flew open as Pascal rushed out waving at us. 
"You ready?" Questioned Charles as he reached over an gave my hand a reassuring squeeze, before he opened his door and stepped out of the car. 
Taking a deep breath, I slowly opened the door. Charles rushing over to me to help me get out of the car. I could hear Pascal awe at the sight of her son helping his girlfriend getting out of the car. 
"Bonjour Maman," Charles said as we walked up the steps to where she was standing waiting for us. 
 Before I could even finish climbing up the stairs I was being pulled into her arms, her arms engulfing me in a big hug. The second Pascales arms wrapped around my body I instantly  felt at home and comfortable.
"Oh my Elle, you're so beautiful my dear. How did my son get so lucky...." Pascale said as she pulled away from the hug so that she could hug Charles, "blink three times if he is holding you hostage." She teased as she reached up and pinched her sons cheeks. 
"Very funny Mom," blushed Charles as he shook his head at his mothers joke. 
"I mean... she is definitely out of your league bro," Charles younger brother Arthur said as he stepped into the door way holding his hand out towards me so that I could shake his hand, "Hello Elle, Im Arthur the better looking and more talented Leclerc brother."
Before I could reach my hand out to shake his hand, Charles pushed my hand away "don't touch that" he teased "Im not sure where that hand has been."
I couldn't help the laugh that escaped my lips as I watched the two brothers interact with each other. 
"Boys," Pascale called out putting a stop to the shoving match that the boys were just about to start, "Behave, I don't want Elle to think I raised animals instead of men." 
"Sorry mom," both boys said as they looked over at Pascale. 
"Come on Elle,"  Pascale said as she grabbed my hand and led me into her beautiful house. 
As we walked further into the house I could hear Arthur tell Charles how beautiful I was and that he was lucky to be with someone so pretty. 
"So dear, how is are you? Is my son treating you well?" Pascale said as she lead me towards the couch in the living room. 
"Im doing good Mrs. Leclerc." I said smiling at Charles mom. "Charles is a perfect gentleman, you raised him well" I added as I watched Charles walk into the living room and  sit down beside me on the couch. 
"Oh Elle, please call me Pascale... Mrs. Leclerc makes me feel old." 
"You are old mom," teased Arthur as he sat down beside his mother on the couch. Which earned him a gentle slap to the back of the head from mother.
"Ouch... So how are you liking Monaco," questioned Arthur as he rubbed his head in the spot his mom had just smacked him. 
"Im really loving it, everyone I have met here have been super nice." I responded as I looked over towards Arthur and Pascale smiling. 
"Oh Im so glad," Pascale said as she reached over towards my hand in a reassuring gesture, "Charles has mentioned how you guys first met... it's absolutely adorable that you guys kept running into each other." 
I could feel Charles arm wrap around me as he pulled me closer into his sides, "Im just glad I kept running into you... it took me a couple run ins to finally get the courage to ask you out." Charles said just before he kissed me on the forehead. 
Out of the corner of my eye I could see that Pascale had lifted her hand towards her chest with a happy expression on her face as she watched her middle son interact in a loving way with his new girlfriend, while Arthur was pretending to gag. 
"Im just glad he got his head out of his ass," Joked Arthur "you should have heard him the whole flight home... complaining about how stupid he is for not getting your name or number." 
Charles rolled his eyes at his brothers behaviour and reached for the pillow beside him and threw it at Arthur smacking him right in the face. 
The shocked look on Arthur's face made everyone burst out laughing.
"Oh Elle, do you think you can handle my crazy family?" Pascale asks with a big grin on her face. 
Laughing I replied, "yes.. I think my family is even crazier then yours if that is possible... you should see how me and my sister behave when we are together."  
"Then I think you are going to make an excellent addition to our crazy family." Pascale said as she shook her head at her sons. You could see how much Pascal loved her boys and how happy it made her to have her boys at home with her. 
"Where is Lorenzo?" Asked Charles as he started looking around the house wondering where his older brother was. 
"He's on a work trip." Pascale answered as she smiled at her middle son and his girlfriend, "he told me to tell you that he is sorry he isn't here and that he can't wait to meet the women who has made his little brother smile again." 
I looked over towards Charles with a questioning look. Was he not happy before he met me?
"Before I met you I was having a rough patch... especially because I was struggling on the race track and in my personal life." Charles said as he gave me a reassuring smile.
"We hated Charles ex girlfriend," mumbled Arthur just loud enough so that Pascal and I could here. Thankful Charles didn't hear or Arthur would have gotten another pillow to the head. 
"Maybe Elle will be your lucky charm" suggested Pascale as she observed how her middle son and his girlfriend were interacting with each other. She could already tell that her son had met his match and that Elle seemed like the perfect person for her son. 
"Elle, are you excited to be going to the races this year?" Asked Arthur
"Very excited, though I think I will be in the red-bull hospitality and Garage with Penelope and Kelly most of the weekends." I said as I looked over towards Charles, wondering how he would feel about his girlfriend spending most of her time in the red-bull area of the paddock instead of in the Ferrari area with him. 
"Oh Belle, I think I will be able to convince Max to let you be in my garage during the races" Charles said with a determined look on his face. "Im not going to let him take away my good luck charm." Charles added as he gave me a wink, instantly I could feel a blush start to creep up my face. 
"When did you become such a romantic," teased Arthur as he looked over towards his brother, the look of admiration present on his face. 
"The moment I found Elle," replied Charles as he winked at me. 
God... why is this man so hot when he winks at me like that... i could feel the blush start to form as I looked away from Charles gaze. 
"Oh no!" Pascale exclaimed as she stood up quickly from the couch. "I've been so distracted with getting to know Elle, I forgot to offer you something to drink."
"It's okay mom," Charles said as he stood up from the couch as well "you sit down Arthur and I will go get us all something to drink." 
As Charles started to walk out of the room he turned and winked at me before  continuing on into the kitchen 
"Thanks boys" Pascale said as she sat back down on the couch. 
"Thank you Elle, I have never seen my son so happy. For a long time the only thing that would bring him happiness and put a smile on his face was racing. Ever since the death of my husband he has been very guarded especially when it come to his heart. I think it is because he is terrified to lose another loved one. Even when he was with his ex-girlfriend Tessa you could tell he was holding back on loving her. You have only been in his life for less than a month and you have changed his outlook on finding love." 
As I listened to Pascale talk I couldn't help the tears that started to roll down my face.
"Oh Honey," Pascale said as she pulled me into her arms, giving me a sense of comfort as I thought about everything that Charles has went through with the death of his father, and everything that Pascal went through when her husband passed away...  leaving her to take care of her three boys all alone. 
"He saved me too,"  I said as the realization hit me, I may have saved Charles but he had also saved me. Especially after everything that Jake had put me through. 
Charles came back into the room carrying a bottle of white wine, Arthur following closely behind carrying four wine glasses. 
As soon as Charles locked eyes with me from across the room he could tell that I had been crying. With a concerned look on his face he rushed over to where I was sitting and pulled me into his arms whispering 'are you okay?' 
Nodding my head yes, instantly feeling comforted by the fact Charles was sitting down beside me once again.  Charles wasted no time resting his arm around my shoulder, grinning as he absentmindedly began rubbing his thumb up and down my arm as my body melted into his embrace. 
Once Charles noticed that I was okay, he reached forward and began pouring the wine into the glasses, handing everyone a glass when he was finished. 
"To love... Happiness... and winning some races." Charles said as he held his glass of wine in the air 
"Cheers," everyone said as we all took a sip of our wine.
From across the room I could see Arthur studying his big brothers moments. A big smile on his face as he watched his brother interact with Elle, he had never seen his brother so happy. Growing up Charles had always been his role model and mentor on and off the track. The brothers both working hard to achieve their dreams, and now that Charles had achieved his dream of driving in formula one, he could see his older brothers dreams evolving as they got older and older. Charles made it perfectly clear that his next goal besides winning the world racing championship was to get married and start a family. The minute Arthur met Elle, he knew that Charles was going to accomplish his goal of finding his wife sooner then they both thought, and it would not surprise him if Charles and Elle got engaged by the end of the year.
"Mom, why don't we just order a pizza?" Suggested Charles, "That way you can relax and not have to worry about cooking." 
"Ooh..." answered Pascale her eyes widened at the idea of having pizza for dinner and not having to cook, "but the restaurant we order pizza from doesn't deliver so one of us will have to go pick it up." 
"I can pick it up mom," Charles offered "Elle do you want to come with? Or you can stay with my mom." 
"I will stay with you mom Charles, Im really loving getting to know her better." 
"Arthur why don't you go with your brother, that way Elle and I can have some girl time," 
"We should probably order the pizza soon," suggested Charles as he look at the time on his watch. 
"Yes we should. Elle is it okay if we order Charles favourite pizza?" Questioned Pascale "I promised him on the phone this morning that if he came tonight, I would make him his favourite meal." 
"Of course," I said as I could feel Charles looking at me with a look that made me want to melt from happiness. 
"You are going to love it." Charles said with a big smile on his face as he thought of his favourite pizza. 
Pascale quickly pulled out her phone from her pocket and phoned the restaurant ordering the pizza. 
Hanging up the phone she looked over at Charles and Arthur, "Boys the pizza will be ready for pick up in 20 minutes, maybe you guys should leave in the next couple of minutes. Its about a fifteen minute drive to the restaurant from here." 
"Okay, ladies we will be back soon," Charles said has he stood up from his spot on the couch, leaning down and kissed my lips, before heading towards his mom to kiss her cheek. 
Charles walked over towards the door, where his car keys were hanging and made his way to his car. 
"Bye Ladies," Arthur said as he followed his brother out the door. 
"God, I never thought they would leave," Joked Pascale as she smiled at me. 
Pascale and I sat down on the couch and chatted about anything that came into our minds. I felt so comfortable with her that I even told her about everything that happened with Jake. Just like Charles, Pascale made me feel comfortable and safe the moment I met her. Pascale was an amazing person and I could already tell that her and I would have a good relationship. 
Time seemed to fly by when I was with the Leclerc family, and before we knew it Charles Ferrari pulled into the driveway. 
Seconds later Charles walked into the house carrying two bouquets of flowers in his hands as Arthur carried in the two boxes of pizza. 
"For the two beautiful women in my life," Charles said as he walked over towards both Pascale and me. 
I couldn't help the gasp that escaped my lips as I watched Charles walk into the house carrying the most beautiful bouquet of flowers I had ever seen in my life... flowers are not cheap and they mist have cost a fortune. 
Pascale quickly walked up to Charle and grabbed the flowers, saying a quick thank you as she followed Arthur into the kitchen to set the table for dinner.
"For you," murmured Charles as he walked closer to where I was now standing. Holding the bouquet in one hand and pulled me close with the other. 
"Thanks Babe," I said shocked that Charles had bought me some flowers. 
"Anything for you mon Cheri," Charles said as he leaned down and kissed my lips softly. 
I melted into his kiss as fireworks once again went off in my body, it felt like time had stopped and that there was no one but be and Charles. 
"Uh hum," Arthur said clearing his throat trying to get both Charles and my attention. "Im sorry to interrupt your love fest but dinner is on the table." Arthur added as he teased his brother. 
Pulling away from the kiss I could help by laugh at the look on Charles face, he was very annoyed that Arthur interrupted his kiss with you. 
"Don't worry Elle, we will get him back one day... he just needs to find a girlfriend that will tolerate him," teased Charles as he grabbed my hand and pulled me towards the kitchen.

The Monkie Kid Style Shift
(from the perspective of a fictive. i promise that's important)
To start, for those who are unaware of my existence bc you only know mills or just dont know us at all, hi! I'm Cicada, he/she pronouns, and I'm a Tang fictive. I wanted to give my opinion on all the shit that happened today, because I believe I and other fictives have unique experiences regarding source media changes :3
(the rest of the post will be under the cut, scroll away if you'd like to avoid spoilers from the trailer) (and, quick side note, NO MATTER WHAT I SAY HERE, PLEASE DO NOT HARASS ANYONE. CHRIST I CANT BELIEVE I HAVE TO SAY THIS, BUT PLEASE DO NOT HARASS REAL PEOPLE OVER THESE LEGOS. K? K.)
Okay, so we all know that Flying Bark's animation has always been an integral part to the spirit of Monkie Kid as a show, and is the main reason why a lot of people love it. As a semi source-connected fictive, seeing that style is like literally seeing me and my family in photographs.
Tumblr media
like, y'all have no idea the emotional damage this shot specifically does to me whenever i see it.
and while, yes, there is a possibility that WildBrain can simply just be learning the style (hell, even FlyingBark had to kinda learn their own style in the early days), it's an extremely drastic change and, thus, is bound to cause collateral damage.
I love speaking about my husbands, for example, and the FlyingBark style luckily gives me a great outlet to do so (pignapped lives in my mind rent free).
However, and I can't speak for any other fictives, but the art style shift is kind of like if you watched your family get replaced by aliens or robots right in front of you and couldn't do anything about it. Stiff, doesn't really have a lot of character. I've seen people theorize that they're gonna be animating on rigs instead of handrawn, which matches up. That means, however, that we can't achieve awesome shots such as. every lbd scene ever.
I know plenty of Singlet but neurodivergent people who are also distressed about this, there's familiarity. Especially in my fellow autistic folk, that feels natural, good, and we wouldn't give it up for the world.
(We mod in one of the biggest Monkie Kid discord servers and, dear gods, the fucking backlash. we're all going through it.)
I'm kind of worried that this was pushed, not only because of the ATLA movie, but also because everyone on the staff team was worried because the fandom was antsy.
Can't speak for anyone else, but all the "save me s5" jokes I made were just light hearted, and I'd much rather have quality over quantity. Personally, i'd be willing to wait years for the next monkie kid season if it meant that we could still have it animated by FlyingBark.
Now, of course, this isn't what we're getting, and we'll have to accept that, I just think it should also be valid for fans to be reasonable skeptical at the quality, no matter if it's still the same writers and VAs. It's a huge change, and all I ask is that you're patient with me.
WildBrain is an amazing studio, but I'm not sure they can adjust to the shift in style. Of course, someone's bound to be dissatisfied with it, including myself, and I ask that y'all are patient with people like that. Don't say shit like "if you're a real fan, you wouldn't care about the art style change." That's not nice.
sorry if this isn't coherent in the slightest, I have been crying for a while for the reasoning i mentioned about feeling like I've lost a part of myself. This is terrifying for me, and i ask that you please be kind to others like me <3
anyways, follow if you wanna hear me yap ab BreakfastShipping

In the ask you answered about songs that remind you of Tony you included Rooftop from The Beginner's Guide, I'm curious about your reasoning for that! (Now in an ask so you are free to wax poetic about it hehe)
I did include Rooftop! I also included Va, Machine, and D.S Al Coda. Each of these are from a video game called The Beginners Guide (as you, dear asker, know lol). I am absolutely obsessed with the game and its implications, so of course I had to connect it to Tony Stark (very easy to do actually, given what the game is about).
If you have not ever played The Beginners Guide or if you haven't seen a play through, please do watch a play through before reading the rest of my response. The songs and my explication are entirely tied to the plot surrounding them. I recommend Jacksepticeyes playthrough, linked below.
(I'm generally pro-spoilers, I dont tend to care about things being spoiled and such. But this is the game which is the exception. Don't spoil the game for yourself and read ahead, truly, the game dosnt have the same impact if you already know what happens. I would give so much to play this game for the first time again.)
youtube
Now for all of y'all that know about the game. I'll give a quick refresher on the level in which the song takes place for each explanation.
Rooftop - This is the song that plays at the end of the staircase level. Within that level, the player has to climb the stairs in an attempt to reach the room at the top. The player slows involuntarily while they climb, until they're barely moving at all. The player has the option to take Daveys shortcut and speed up the process to the top, or they can just keep inching forward. But either way, a player gets to the top eventually, and they see "A room that's warm, and nice, and filled with little ideas for games." As you know, Coda's a game developer. So a room full of ideas for games, a room thats welcoming and inspiring, would be worth the slow climb to the top. Once you're in the room of ideas, "Rooftop" starts playing.
Rooftop - What makes this level so Tony Stark is what Davey says: "Coda would often tell me that he didn't mind if people thought of him as cold or distant, he said that he knew he was actually a vibrant and compassionate person, but that it takes time to really see that. It can be a very slow climb to get there." Tell me thats not SO Tony. People see him as cold, and he dosnt care to dissuade someone of this unless they make the climb to see it. And... the room. The room of ideas. Thats Tonys workshop. Its somewhere you have to work to get allowed in, its filled with things that [Tony/Coda] is passionate about, it reveals that the owner isnt entirely cold and distant. You've got to work to get there.
Va - This is the song that plays during the housekeeping level. Complete transparency: this one is my favorite. Up to this point, Davey has observed that Coda seems to be talking to himself continuously. This level comes right after the prison games, when Coda spoke to his past self on the phone. The level opens with Davey pondering aloud: "So what would it look like if Coda wanted to make a game about talking to someone other than himself?" The game that follows includes the player repetitively cleaning a house, chatting with a profesional housekeeper who gives the player instructions. Its later revealed that the housekeeping game was intended to loop forever. with the player continuously cleaning the same things over and over, chatting with a friend who is equally passionate. Davey claims that "This [game was developed] during a period of a few months where he was grossly happy, all the time, just walked around with a constant smile on his face." "Va" plays throughout the level.
Va - This song is SO pre-endgame Tony. What would Tony like more than to engage in repetitive tasks with someone who cares equally about the task? If you dont think Tony would enjoy that repetitive passion, ask Pepper during IM3 how many Iron Man suits Tony made. If you dont think Tony would enjoy having someone equally passionate to chat with throughout, tell me why Tony coded Jarvis to respond to sarcasm with sarcasm. Tony describes himself as a mechanic, and i truly believe that he conciders his "mechanic" self to be the best version of him. So I think he would be his happiest as a mechanic, or as a "housecleaner", simply creating over and over with an audience to discuss WHY he loves it. Someone who believes him about how calming the process it.
Machine - This is from the Machine level. (Side note, but I find it interesting that this is one of the only songs that has the same title as the level its in. To me, thats a testimony to this level being about the destruction of creativity for the sake of creativity itself. but thats a side note). The machine level is the one in which the player observes Coda, the machine, fail to create, and so the player destroys everything the machine has ever created.
Machine - This song is in the playlist because of one of my WIPs. In the story, Tony never finds the cure to his blood poisoning in IM2, and he slowly convinces the people around him to stop associating him him. He destroys almost everything he's ever made in an attempt to avoid it being used for harm after his death. In the end, he dosn't die. someone else comes up with the cure, and Tony is left with nothing he once had, knowing he wasnt good enough to save himself.
D.S Al Coda - This is the song that plays after Coda is revealed to have stopped because of Davey. This song, to me, just summarizes the whole concept of declaring someone elses identity through supervising their creation.
D.S Al Coda - This is a Tony song simply because I believe he would find the game interesting lol. The song just represents the game to me, and I would liek Tonys throughts on the game.
