• Day 25

• "Donnie, c'mon!"

• "Mr. Murakami gonna make us pizza themed ramen!"

• Raph called from outside. Donnie sighed. He couldn't think about pizza delicacies right now. Why do you want him to snuff out smaller threats!? Of course, it's a good idea but... He thought you wanted him home. He wants to be back at home with you.

• "D?"

• The oldest walked into his part of the tank. (A perfect replica of his lab)

• "Why the long face? We're going home in a few days."

• Donnie sighed dramatically and slammed his face on his desk.

• "Oh-ho, I know that sound of anguish."

• Leo's in on the convo now.

• "Someone's having trouble with the future missis."

• His twin grumbled. He's...right. Donnie lifted up his phone to show the voicemail.

• "She...thinks we should stay longer to squash anymore threats."

• The brothers looked at each other.

• "That's it?"

• They said. The softshell gasped.

• "That's it!?"

• He shot up from his rolly chair.

• "She is my peanut butter and I am her jelly, existing without each other isn't something we enjoy."

• "So her throwing away the golden opportunity to reunite, is hurting my feelings!"

• Quietness. Now supes embarrassed, he sighs and melts back into his seat. (Y'know like Spinel did.) Raph looked around and put his hand on younger brother's head.

• "Okay...good job on spilling your guts, buddy."

• Donnie tucked into his knees.

• "Aww, cheer up. It'll only be a few more days."

• "We can catch the other baddies then."

• Raph said, attempting to lighten the mood. But, all it was doing was giving D a headache. Literally, Raph's hand is heavy. Leo scoffed.

• "Uh, how? It took us months just to pinpoint these guys."

• "They're probably PLENTY more evil organizations in this country."

• Leo got shoved into a nearby shelf.

• "Leo, we're trying to make him feel better."

• The oldest snapped. The blue twin muttered 'I'm just being saying.' as he got up. That gave Raph a lightbulb.

• "I got it!"

• "Let's take over Japan!"

• The twins looked at each other.

• "Huh?"

• Day 27

• You laid on the couch, staring at your phone. Meanwhile, Donnie 0 was vacuuming the floor with said couch over his shoulder. (Super strength was one of his many abilities.) You sighed. Why hasn't Donnie called you back yet? He always does, even if he's getting his arms twisted back. He hasn't responded to any of the memes you sent either. Is he over cats stuffed in shoes now?

• "Y/N."

• You looked down at your bot.

• "This task is complete."

• You gave him a little nod and looked back at your phone. You sent your live Donnie another message.

• Thinking about you 🥺

• You sighed. Is he hurt or something? Captured!? If he is, your taking the FIRST plane to Japan-

• Suddenly, the couch fell down. Making you shriek.

• "Apologies, my sweet,"

• Donnie 0 said, while looking over his limbs.

• "My arm joint got stuck."

• You laughed weakly.

• "No prob, Bob."

• He bent down and poked your nose.

• "I'm Donnie, you."

• He snickered. You smiled a little and looked down.

• "Something bothering you, Y/N?"

• You poked your lip out.

• "Uh-huh, my man's not answering me."

• The mention of the og Donnie, made the robot frown. But, he quickly wiped it off his face.

• "I think my is phone broken."

• You mumbled. That gave him an idea. A bad idea. He cleared his throat and imitated his creator's "triumphant" laugh.

• "Never fear, Y/N,"

• He stood up.

• "Your world's greatest robot is here."

• "I'll fix your phone."

• You blinked and stood up.

• "That's okay, I can just go to the Ephone store-."

• Before you could finish your sentence, you were dipped down. A robotic yet fleshy arm, secured your waist.

• "Please,"

• His hand clasped over your phoned one.

• "I insist."

• Your face nearly lit on fire. Laughing nervously, you squirmed away from the pose. (Falling on the floor.)

• "Okay, okay. Do whatever you need to do."

• You said, letting your device go. Mission successful, the robotic doppelganger thought. Teasing you has gotten significantly easier.

• "Well gtg, Donnie 0. I got a new anime with my name on it."

• "Bye, wifey."

• He replied smoothly. You smiled and walked into your room. But not before you said something that made his wires burn.

• "You're just like my Donatello."

• He wish that didn't URK him so badly. He is his own turtle! And he wishes you'd see him as such ! But, BUT, that's fine for now. Your falling in love thee update is still downloading. All he has to do is keep pushing and that beautiful, beating heart of yours will be his...

• Day 31 (Day before the departure)

• Your fiancee sighed as he put on his jacket. (Dark purple with a black dog on the back. It's part of a suit combo) You're still not answering. He even asked Donnie 0 to check your devices and he said they were working fine. Maybe you got a new phone? But, then why didn't you give him your new number-?

• "Donnie, Donnie!"

• D woke up from his trance. Mikey was shaking his shoulder.

• "Huh, what?"

• All his brothers were looking at 'im, their faces contorted with worry.

• "Turn off your blowtorch, Donnie."

• Raph said, with a 'calm down' motion (Also sporting a flashy dog suit🐶 His is red, of course.)

• "We're heading home tomorrow,."

• Donnie tugged his tie, anxiously.

• "And if this plan doesn't work!?"

• "Um..."

• (It's getting harder and harder to reassure this dude.)

• "We pack up and go home!"

• Leo said while swinging his sword over his shoulder. His twin looked astonished. Raph frowned.

• "No."

• He turned back to his brother in purple.

• "Don't even worry, D. This mission will go well, so stop thinking about losing so much."

• The scientist sighed and nodded. Everything's gonna be a-okay. Namaste.

• "Sheldon, turn on some of Donnie's calm jams."

• Mikey said with a smile. Suddenly, something rung in his brain. Sheldon...Shell...

• "Shelly!"

• Donnie shouted. 'Huh?' His brothers said in unison. He didn't have time to explain anything to them, he finally has a way to contact you! He grabbed Sheldon.

• (Who looked distraught and miffed about it.)

• "Sheldon, contact Shelly."

• The little robot perked up.

• "Shelly? You got it bro!"

• The softshell sighed of relief. Shelly (Sheldon's girlfriend) is your back up device that is made for emergency contacts. ANYTHING can get through to them. Though Donnie doesn't has time to have a long, wonderful chat with you, he can still leave a heartfelt message. He cleared his throat. The signal connects. He's on air.

• "Greetings my darling, I'm SO glad I finally got through. Miss me? Of course you did. Hope you it wasn't too much and..."

• He paused. Feelings rushed into his mouth.

• "I really love you and I can't wait to see you tomorrow. We gotta overthrow the Fujioka clan now, but...let's have a sleepover tomorrow, okay? We'll do whatever you want, anything...Bye, Y/N."

• Right before he signed off he remembered something he had to say. He smiled, showing off his very pearly whites.

• "Like my suit?

• Day 32 (The showdown.)

• "So you finally got in contact with him, huh?"

• April said, biting into a cookie. Right now, you and April ooo'neil are having a sleepover. Since you were feeling MAD lonely, you asked if she could spend some time with you. (April's usually busy trying to seal a business deal with her husband.) But, you finally got a message from your soon to be hubby! From your Shelly.

• "Yeah, apparently his phone was tripping out too."

• You replied, snagging a cookie yourself. She raised an eyebrow.

• "Donnie's phone was messing up?"

• You nodded. That's...weird. Like, really weird. She pointed to your closed door.

• "Did Donnie 0 fix your phone?"

• You laid back on your bed.

• "I dunno, he hasn't returned it yet."

• "Y/N, can you go to the store and grab some more sodas. We're all out."

• You answered while rubbing the head of the girl Sheldon. April frowns. That's it. Something's wrong. She thought quietly as you continued to talk about the message you got. Something just doesn't feel right. Donnie 0 is usually pleasant to her but he always looked at you kinda strangely...

• Omg.

• You frowned.

• "Why do I have to get 'em?"

• She scoffed.

• "You're the host."

• She retorted with crossed arms. You grumbled and hopped up and opened the door.

• "If you need anything, just ask my Donnie bot."

• She gave you a thumbs up and watched as you left. The moment you shut the door, she grabbed her phone. She has to call Donnie. She knows why you guys couldn't get in contact. And...there was no reception.

• "Dangit."

• She groaned. Wait a minute, Shelly! April picked up the robot and tapped away. Hopefully, the turtles are already on their way home.

• "Donnie, I know why you couldn't contact Y/N. Donnie 0 is in lo-"

• "Ahem."

• She froze. There he was, in the doorway

• "Donnie 0 is what?"

• He said with a his trademark smile. April said nothing, only narrowing her eyes. She has to play her cards right. This is a powerful Ai and it has feelings for her best friend. This could get ugly very fast. He took a step closer.

• "April,"

• He said calmly.

• "Put the robot the down and you can continue to have a peaceful evening, okay."

• She gripped it tightly. What should she do? She doesn't know if the boys are on there way or what Donnie 0's capable off. She could escape through the window but...she can't just leave you with this thing.

• "April, give me Shelly."

• The robot repeated, extending his hand. His purple pupils are starting glow. She's running out of time.

• "If you want her,"

• April said slowly.

• "Go get her!"

• She chucked the priceless invention out the window. Not able to resist the Donnie-ness flowing through him, he lunged for it.

• "Shelly!"

• April took that chance and dashed towards the front door. She'll pick you up and take you the airport and the boys will handle this crazy bucket of bolts-

• "Get back here!"

• A loud, distorted voice shouted. A long, metal claw wrapped around her, dragging her back to Donnie 0. He chuckled lowly.

• (Doing the tsk tsk tsk.)

• "It's such a shame I have to delete you April,"

• He said, tightening the grip.

• "I liked being your friend."

• She groans. Her bones...are gonna break!!! Suddenly, a orange ball crashed through the window. It hit Donnie 0 right in the jaw, nearly denting him. He yelped and dropped April. He looked around, ready to tear apart source.

• "Hey!"

• They both looked over at the front door.

• "Back away from our best girl, Robot Donnie."

• It was Mikey! And the rest of them. (Thank goodness) Donnie stepped up.

• "So,"

• He crossed his arms.

• "My greatest creation has gone insane."

• "WHY am I getting deja vu?"

• (Sheldon raised his wing to say something, but Mikey stopped him.)

• Donnie 0 laughed. Finally, he gonna let his true feelings free.

• "Oh poor, deluded, DUMB, Donatello."

• He chuckled. (Unintentionally crossing his arms like his creator.)

• "I'm not the insane one here."

• "You are."

• The softshell's eyes narrowed, but he didn't say anything.

• "Do you really think Y/N is always gonna wait around for you?"

• "You don't, do you? That's why I'm here. A remnant of you so she doesn't look elsewhere."

• His pupils burned a piercing purple.

• "But, your plan backfired. I imprinted. And now, I wanna take your place."

• "So be a good ex fiancee and make yourself scarce."

• All the brothers (and April) looked at D. Was he just gonna take that? The actual Donatello chuckled.

• (Not Haha, funny. Haha, you're dead.)

• "Phew, um, I have alot of choice words for you but,"

• He pressed a button on his Techbo, turning it into a double sided, light saber. (One of its many upgrades.)

• "Unlike you, I'll spare you the chit chat. And skip to the robot breaking."

• Everyone readied their weapons. And from lack of her mystic bat, April grabbed a rolling pin!

• "Haha! What now, Robo?"

• Mikey asked/laughed.

• "You got 4 angry, car lagged turtles AND a businesswoman on your back."

• "You're toast!"

• Donnie 0 chuckled, his shoulders bouncing. That's not a good sign.

• "Am I?"

• He snapped. The room began to shake. 3 more artificial intelligences came, each damaging your apartment in some way. And...surprise, surprise, it was the other mutated siblings. The robot in purple laughed, his voice switching from demonic to Donnie.

• "Did you really think I wasn't prepared for this!?"

• "Well, we were kinda hoping you weren't."

• Leo chimed in.

• "Brethren, take them down."

• "I'll handle master Donatello."

• And the fight begins! The Raphs clash fist, Mikey gets tackled by his bot, and Leo's is oddly super tactical. And of course, the main crazed robot is after Donnie's head.

• "Head ups, Raph!"

• Mikey shouted, swinging his robot his older brother's way. Despite, still blocking punches, the snap turtle ducked. Resulting in Mik-E slamming through the wall.

• "Bleh, I hate how much that thing looks like you."

• Raph mumbled. Mikey hopped on his back and pointed.

• "Ah! My look alike is still kicking!"

• The robot has indeed, got up. He cracked his head the right way and frowned. They screamed and ran off into the kitchen. Mik-E hot on their heels. Meanwhile, Leo and April were actually struggling with Le-O. He was in perfect sync with his original, yet he had quick enough reaction time to block their friend.

• "What do we do!? It's like fighting a computer in chess!"

• April shouted, trying to get one hit on the bot. Leo thought hard for a second. Then, he got it!

• "How do you beat computers?"

• He clashed swords with Le-O.

• "With cheat codes!"

• The robot scoffed at the lame pun and easily pushed him back into the coffee table.

• "Geez, D-0 wasn't kidding. You're super annoying."

• The slider smirked.

• "I get that alot."

• Suddenly, crackling was heard. The Ai turned around. There April was! Popping out of the classic blue portal and winding the pitch. She swung. And...!

• "Homerun!"

• Le-O was slammed in the cheek with the rolling pin, and crashed out your window. The condescending copycat was out for the count. (Maybe, nobody checked) The two high fived.

• "Another win for April and Leo!"

• Leo laughed.

• "Now let's go cream Raph's bot!"

• Donnie sighed as they scampered into the rowdy kitchen. Thank goodness, his brothers weren't struggling...much. Still looking at other commotion, the scientist caught the incoming staff.

• "It would be wise for you to keep your eyes on your opponent, Donatello."

• Donnie 0 hissed.(Although he couldn't pull his techbo back) The flesh and blood scientist scoffed and threw the staff away.

• "Bring it."

• Right before the fight you all have been waiting for began...!

• The doorknob turns. Everyone froze.

• You're home!

• "Hide!"

• Donnie whisper/shouted. The fam and the robots ducked behind the counter.

• "And you!"

• He pointed at the Ai next to 'im.

• "It's time for you to log off."

• He yanked on Mecha D's hoodie and reached Emergency shutdown button, (it's on the back of his neck) but the robot was ready.

• "Like hell it is."

• Donnie 0 snapped back. The scientist gasped and they began to tussle. Fabric was getting torn.

• "I did NOT give you foul language!"

• "Get your hands off me!"

• "Donnie?"

• Both of them froze and looked up at you. There you were. Standing in the doorway. Looking very confused (and a tad intrigued) by your turtle and robot tussling. The two of them stood up quickly and straightened themselves out. You looked around, slowly taking in your now destroyed home.

• "What the honk happened in here!?"

• You asked, while mourning over your broken, expensive coffee table.

• "It was him!"

• Both Donnies said like twins. You frowned. That's not a clear answer.

• "Seriously, Y/N, he did it!"

• They said together again.

• "Stop it!"

• "I'm serious!"

• "This copycatery is immature-!"

• You snapped your fingers. Both of them flinched and looked at you. You sighed and pinched the bridge of your nose.

• "Donnie 0, speak first."

• "But-"

• You put your hand up, silently shushing him. Your fiancee grumbled and crossed his arms. Donnie 0 smiled smugly at him and returned to his "chill butler" vibe.

• "Dearest,"

• "You're fiancee is jealous of me."

• You raised an eyebrow, no opinion showing in your eyes.

• "He came home early and told me to leave."

• "When I refused, because it's not the time we agreed upon, he got hostile."

• The squad behind the counter was getting ticked. He's just gonna openly lie like that? You looked at the real Donnie. It's his turn. Before the softshell could say anything, the robot popped back in.

• "Y/N,"

• He pulled you close.

• "I'm in love with you."

• Donnie inhaled sharply. Right in his face, huh? This robot has ZERO tact. You looked shocked.

• "Whenever I'm with you or when you talk to me,"

• He put one of his hands on his steel plastron.

• "My heart drive sparks like crazy and maybe it's just a malfunction but..."

• "I like it, okay! And I like you!"

• Your head was spinning. Your apartment was near annihilated. Your fiancee's home earlier. And now, your Ai is confessing his LOVE to you.

• "Uhh..."

• Noticing your spiraling, he sighed and yanked Donnie next to him. (He would've grabbed you back, but the grip on your arm might be tight)

• "Y/N...choose."

• You and your fiancee looked at Donnie 0, very distraught.

• "Organic life or Artificial life?"

• The room hushed. The boys AND the bots peeked from the counter. April readied her rolling pin. And Donnie bit his lip. They all had the same thought.

• She's gonna choose the real Donnie...

• Right?

• You looked at the robot and then back at the original. Slowly, you walked towards...

• Donnie 0.

• Donatello's heart shattered while the other's sparked. Everyone was shocked, especially Donnie. It only took one month to...to lose you? Donnie 0 hugged you tightly and your arms curled around his neck.

• "Oh, Y/N."

• Finally! It's happening! It's really happening! You're finally his-

• Suddenly, the robots eyes turned grey.

• And he slumped forward...

• Unconscious.

• The other brothers walked from behind the counter.

• "Did you sleep him with your love!?"

• Mikey asked. You shook your head.

• "Nope."

• "Just used the emergency shutdown button."

• Donnie shoved the knocked out robot off you and picked you up. You nearly touched the roof. He looked up at you with wet eyes.

• "Don't scare me like that!"

• You chuckled and kissed him on the head.

• "I'm sorry, I wanted to give him a false sense of security."

• He smushed his face into your shoulder and just whimpered. You sighed. This past month must've been rough. As you rubbed his shell, you got bombarded with questions.

• "How'd you know the bot was phony?"

• "We don't have to pay damages...right?"

• "Did you miss us!?"

• "You're not hurt anywhere, are you?"

• You frowned as they talked. You're gonna get overwhelmed at this rate. You snapped and everyone hushed again.

• "Raph,"

• You chose his question.

• "I kinda always had my guard around him."

• "He's an Artificial intelligence, those are practically doomed to fail."

• Donnie mumbled "not always" in the background. You answered the other "questions" as well. No damages need to be paid, but they are gonna fix it. You did miss them and your a-okay.

• "So what do we do with them?"

• Leo said, nodding to the robo bros. They were looking over their fallen brother, talking amongst themselves. Raph shrugged.

• "I don't really know?"

• "They only got crazy when Donnie's robot told them to."

• That's true. They do seem alot more peaceful now, but also lost.

• "As much as I hate to say this,"

• D said, finally done wetting the inside of your neck.

• "We gotta scrap 'em."

• "What!?"

• Mikey shouted.

• "Yes, Mikey."

• "Despite being the greatest artificial intelligence ever known to the planet,"

• "They're dangerous."

• "We already have enough problems as is."

• That was a good point. Everybody did get pretty roughed up and you still don't know the status of Japan. But...

• "I got it!"

• You suddenly said. Everyone looked at you and once again...

• "Huh?"

• 2 updating days later...

• "Remember, turn him on when you guys get on the plane, okay?"

• You told Raph 3.

• (Yeah, no super catchy name for him.)

• He nodded and adjusted his beanie.

• "Don't lose your brothers either."

• Right now you guys are setting the bots free...to do the international missions. Yes, it's sounds harsh, but they'll be happier there. They won't feel odd or oppressed by their originals and they can have their own adventures. Save people in their own way. (And with the new update, they'll be no more dangerous rebelling.)

• "I'll miss you, Mikey!"

• Mik‐E shouted hugging up his live action. Mikey choked.

• "Oh! You're gonna make me cry!"

• Yeah, everyone got tight with their robots in the little time. Not your fiancee though. He had to make a BIG change to his. Namely, the memory card. It was better if Donnie 0 started with a clean slate. Otherwise, he might try to get revenge on you or something. And nobody wants that. After alot of goodbyes and steel hugs, it was time for their flight.

• "Well, looks like it's time for our final bow."

• Le-O said. Everyone got quiet. Donnie cleared his throat and open his arms wide.

• "Robot brethren."

• They looked at each other and awkwardly embraced him.

• "Enjoy the world,"

• "And Donnie 1."

• He looked up at them.

• "Can you do that for me?"

• They all smiled and started talking at once.

• "You got it, Fleshy Donnie!"

• "We'll send you a postcard!"

• "Wait, why does Donnie get the 1?"

• After some more last minute chatter, they had to go. They all waved one last time and Raph 0 slung his unconscious purple brother back over his shoulder. You and the brothers watched in silence as the robots ran to catch their plane.

• "Welp, I had my fill on life sized robots for a bunch of years."

• "Mine was the best though."

• The slider said with a stretch. (It's like, 5 in the morning right now.)

• "Who wants to loiter at that shooting star bucks with me?"

• He said pointing at the airport one. Mikey hopped on his back.

• "I want some of that action!"

• Raph was down to join as well.

• "Let's eat all the pastries!"

• He shouted. Now that they're going to harass poor shooting star bucks employees, it's just you and your fiancee. You looked over at him.

• "Man, I missed you so much."

• He snickered and pulled you close.

• "I know."

• "Not hearing from you was basically torture."

• You laid your face on his shoulder. (He happened to not be wearing his battle shell today.)

• "What do think set Donnie 0 off?"

• You finally asked the question that's been nagging for the past two days. Did you accidentally break him or something?

• "I honestly have know idea."

• "But, I knew he was always special."

• Your brows furrowed.

• "I only downloaded our childhood and recent memories into him and he was just like me. Must've been some something special about the metal I used."

• You sighed and nuzzled into his neck. Maybe that was the case...or something different. Maybe even mystic. You didn't know. And you were kinda too scared to find out. (Leo and Raph gave you the rundown of what happened before you came home. Terrifying stuff.)

• You snorted.

• "And that wasn't a big red flag, dear?"

• Donnie huffed and looked back at you.

• "I thought my engineering was just that good."

• He poked your side.

• "If you must know, my intrusive darling."

• You chuckled, sounding like chipmunk. You finally came out of his shoulder. You wrapped your arms around his waist.

• (...The turtles do have waist, right?)

• "So, wanna get a coffee?"

• You asked while fluttering your eyelashes. He put on his thinking face.

• "Nah,"

• He smiled.

• "I hoping me and you can spend some time together...alone."

• You gasped dramatically, pretending to be shocked by such a vulgar request. Then laughed. Of course, D wanted to "hang out". It's has been awhile. You linked your arm with his.

• "Then by all means..."

• "Lead the way."

• (Tricked you guys! You two are just playing Luigi cart in the Tank!)

°○°•●•°○°•●•°○°•●•°○°•●•°○°•●•°○°

Whew! That was alot, but I'd happily do it again. Unfortunately, though, I'm burned out on Rise series. So, only turtle headcanons this holiday season. But, I will be showing designs of Donnie 0 and deleted scenes. And heck, maybe even a Q&A if anyone wants that. Stay cool!😎

[hiddenspriings]

i hope one day you start a youtube, i would watch your content everyday ;-; i feel like most of the simmers are on youtube, their sims aren't my style, or they're really boring, but your content is so bright and colorful and interesting and we need more of that on youtube!

I was thinking about it before, I mean the idea of starting your own yt channel (or any social media video type of channel) is so exciting but I'm not sure how big is the viewerbase for sims (especially sims 3) anymore. I stopped watching this type of content years ago and now seeing how it turned into this generic 'I left my game unpaused for x hours' and 'each room is a different pack' kind of videos is pretty depressing. I don't want to join that crowd, especially that I have no interest in posting sims 4 so my technical views would be much smaller. And I mean, do people still watch gameplay and challenges nowadays when everything is so focused on creating short content? I don't want to sound like I'm so focused on the audience here but creating content you like is only a part of it, if you don't have the viewers it gets pretty pointless(?) on youtube. Maybe that's why I like tumblr so much, because from the platform perspective we are all bloggers, sure we interact with each other as 'creators vs viewers of the content' but the idea is that every one of us has its own blog, we are equal in a way and even if I have 0 followers it is my little space, I can post random things yk.

Sorry it kinda turned into a little rant. It's really flattering you think of my blog in this way, that you see my content as sort of valuable to you but so far I'm quite happy just being on tumblr and not thinking if anyone will actually see my next post (which, let's be honest, took way less time than creating a full gameplay video for yt). I'm not saying it won't change, who knows, next month I might be like 'HEY COME WATCH MY STREAM ON TWITCH!!!!' but expanding from a blogger to full ass creator on another platfrom is a huge move I'm afraid takes so much courage to make.

[plushfuckerbait]

Ok how do I become a plushie girl???

I need this so bad I wanna be all soft and fuzzy and a toy to be played with

well i can't tell you how to be a girl, but what i CAN tell you is the things that make me a wonderful plush toy

1) enthusiasm - almost everyone loves someone who's bubbly and wiggly about the idea of being cuddled and given affection, and is so forward about what they want in a cutesy manner

2) gentleness - do your best to be as soft with people as they need, no pushing them to play or snuggle, just soft, cutesy suggestions

3) SOFT - i'm fat so i'm kinda cheating there but also just wearing clothing that is nice to the touch, or getting your hair well conditioned so it's nice to play with helps so much with the visual of Human Teddy Bear

4) little - this is a silly one, but it's much easier for most to cuddle with someone they perceive as smaller than them, it's a fair bit harder to achieve the Plush Vibe when you're being buddy-buddy or parenting someone.

5) friends - carrying a plush toy around others is basically Asking to be coo'd at, and it works! it always draws eyes when the 2X year old walks in clutching a big stuffed dog to them, and for good reason too.

this isn't a perfect itemized list but they're the things that i have been able to conjure up over the course of my day, so i hope they help 0 :3c

[mixamatcha]

do u have any headcanons for the ew guys? :0 ((also WOOOO fellow mexican do u have any mexican/hispanic headcanons either?! sorry if that's weird to ask lol just curious :P))

Thank you for the ask!

I have plenty of headcanons for them! Though a good amount of them centralize around Edd, Matt, and Eduardo! (Since they're my favorite characters), so, I'll just go over them in order, I think

(Very long text blog, by the way, lol);

Edd Central;

The most important one to me is probably Edd and Tord being platonic life partners, I never truly could see them as a romantic pair, so this just made all the more sense to me. I always sorta thought of Tord and Edd as childhood friends anyways, while the other guys came later, like they met in school perhaps when Tord had just moved there with his parents and Edd was the first one to talk to him and they've been inseparable ever since type of thing. I always depict Tord being really clingy, mostly out of me projecting, but also because, dang it, drawing these two together is lovely :[ (I'll put some art below all the text). Edd I always sort of headcanoned as AroAce, other than one or two instances there aren't many depictions of Edd thirsting over people in a way that would make me go "Oh yeah he's _________" but the way he values his friends, especially Tord, always struck me as similar to my own experiences as someone presiding on the AroAce spectrum. He loves people clearly, but I just don't think I could picture him in a fully romantic relationship. Though I don't think I would describe his relationship with Tord as brotherly, I feel like they're more than that but not in a romantic way? It's hard to explain, but that's the big headcanon that's gonna be present on this page. Final note I headcanon that one of Edd's parents is from Spain, so he was raised in a halfway Spanish household. The reason for this is mostly because me and my other Hispanic friends like to jokingly have a rivalry with Spain because haha world history is funny and since I headcanon Eduardo to be specifically Mexican it just seemed funny for one rival to be at least partially from Spain and the other to be from Mexico. Also, imagining them arguing in spanish gives me life, like picture Eduardo and Edd bickering from either side of the fence and every now and again Eduardo points out the differences in the Spanish dialect they speak to fan the flame, like come on. All lighthearted, obviously, I never see Eduardo and Edd as like

MEGA HARDCORE RIVALS

I think its more of a silly friendly rivalry where they sometimes accidentally end up actually arguing. Is this also projecting? Probably, but I don't care! Also, I don't think they met as young as they're depicted to in PowerEdd? Everyone knowing each other since they were kids always was sorta weird to me because? Where? Did Eduardo's accent come from then? If anything, I think they met in their teens and have been verbally beating the crap out of each other ever since.

Matt Central;

Despite Matt being my second favorite of the main guys, I managed to go nearly 9 years in this fandom without learning to draw him at all. Which is a shame since he's such a silly guy. Personally, I headcanon that Matt was adopted as a kid, we see that his mom in fun dead's hair is a lot darker than his and to me? In my brain? It kind of screamed that she used "box dye" to match her adopted son. I DO think his grandma is blood related, but I think she got in contact with him much later in life (perhaps when he was 15-17), and that's how they've managed to be in contact in certain scenes or episodes. Keep in mind that I don't read the comics for the series anymore, honestly? So if anything in there IS relevant, I, yknow, I haven't seen it! It's a smaller note, but I also kind of just like the idea of Matt being Czech (not by adoption. From birth). It's not like a big thing in my HCs it's just always sort of in the back of my mind. Sexuality-wise, I thought of Matt as pansexual! It just makes the most sense in my little brain

Eduardo Central;

Come on, how could I NOT get attached to this guy? He's rude, He's morally dubious a lot of the time, He's Hispanic?? You basically described at least a good sizable chunk of my extended family. Anyways, as said before, I definitely headcanon him as specifically from Mexico (specifically somewhere in Michoacán), and I mean like born and raised at least until he was like seven and then he moved to the United States until he was 15-16 when he then moved with his family to the United Kingdom. I think if anyone, he met his friends in high school, Mark and Jon just always seemed less like childhood friends troupe and more like the "I met him in science class and now he comes over to my house at 2am and knocks on my window because he got lost on his way home and he needs to use my bathroom and also probably raid my kitchen" kind of friends. Him and Jon specifically have such an honestly terrible but also interesting dynamic since it's one I've seen a lot in my life. Personally, I think he means a lot of what he says in a non serious manner despite his tone? As, we see in the end part 2 that he DOES at least CARE about Jon, this just comes off to me as someone who has problems expressing that at all which is sad but not an excuse or justification, just an explanation. I absolutely headcanon Eduardo as gay because.. I don't know! I genuinely just do not get straight vibes from the guy, and I definitely see deeply internalized homophobia but not a straight guy. I don't think I see him and his friends as in any kind of romantic relationship, but you know it's just something I like to keep in mind when thinking of him. He's also very connected to his culture in my mind, I can imagine him genuinely teaching Jon and Mark about it often. Actually, we only ever see these guys in very HEAVILY characterized, overly specific situations, and I'd like to more often imagine all the things we missed in between. After Jon is gone, I think it's fair to imagine he mellows out, perhaps due to regret? I don't know, am I saying he's the best character ever and is exempt from all guilt or flaws? No. He's an asshole. But is he one of my favorites, nonetheless, because of how I wrote him in my own mind? Yes.

The Edd and Tord Fanart I Promised Earlier Lol;

[coexistentialism]

Ever since I've been starting to add more and more alters to my system list, I've felt a lot less.. constricted maybe, I'm not sure? It just feels a lot better, like it feels like it makes more sense. Where I previously waved off alters and just went "that's probably not a different alter, they're most likely just this other alter", I re-added them back to the system list and sorting out my system list has felt a lot better. I still can't sort the system list in a way that feels correct, but it's a lot better. It feels like there were missing pieces I didn't realize were missing. All this to say, if you're an extreeemmeely large system: it's okay. Like I mean REALLY fucking large, like hundreds upon thousands into millions. Or if you have ever been an extremely large system and fused down into a smaller number (or at least a smaller number than it used to be).

And I think trying to wave off certain parts and just assume they're some other part that I've already written down was probably some kind of denial that I didn't really realize/recognize as denial. I'm not particularly stressed that I'm polyfragmented, it doesn't distress me, but yeah like I said, I think I just like. Waved off certain alters and tried to explain them away and go "that's most likely just (xyz)" is some kind of denial for me.

I'm sorry I'm still working on that polyfragmented survey post I'm sorry please don't kill me (joking) 😭

While many polyfragmented systems won't be able to tell you "how many" alters there are, I am curious about the wide ranges of numbers of alters polyfragmented systems may have. - (147 responses) -- 2%, 3 people said “I have less than 20 alters” -- 6.8%, 10 people said “I have at least 20 or more alters” -- 4.1%, 6 people said “I have at least 30 or more alters” -- 2%, 3 people said “I have at least 40 or more alters” -- 2.7% 4 people said “I have at least 50 or more alters” -- 2%, 3 people said “I have at least 60 or more alters” -- 1.4%, 2 people said “I have at least 70 or more alters” -- 1.4%, 2 people said “I have at least 80 or more alters” -- 2.7%, 4 people said “I have at least 90 or more alters” -- 3.4%, 5 people said “I have at least 100 or more alters” -- 30.6%, 45 people said “I have more than 100 alters” 1.4%, 2 people said I have more than 1,000 alters” -- 4.8%, 7 people said “I have thousands upon thousands” -- 0%, no one said “I have millions” -- 17.7%, 26 people said “I have absolutely no idea and could not guess or estimate, I just know/feel/suspect there's many” 26 people gave other responses

I wanted to share this specifically because I wanted to show the diversity of the number of alters between different systems. While most people put either that they have absolutely no idea or that they have more than 100, there's still quite a big variety of answers.

It's okay if you're a large system. It can suck a lot and be really lonely and you can feel really isolated from other systems and it can really be extremely difficult, so I just want some positivity for us and I just want to say that it's okay to be a large system; you didn't choose to be this way; it's okay to just take a deep breath and allow yourself to be a large system. You aren't being "excessive" if you have so many alters listed down. You aren't faking, you aren't "cringe", you aren't "impossible."

Polyfragmented systems are not an impossibility or something to laugh at because people think that the idea of having thousands upon thousands upon millions of alters is impossible or so rare that it just never happens.

[tellmelittlethingsaboutyourday]

We just got back from our castle Halloween party and we had The Best time. We played all the games, saw all our friends, made some new friends and continued our 3 year streak of finding exactly 0 spiders in the spider hunt.

They hide big fake spiders outside the castle and then we have to go find them in the dark. I never find any because my mildly disabled butt looks at the woods filled with wet leaves and uneven terrain and overexuberent nerds tearing around in the dark and nope out. Ben never finds any because he is slow and very aware of the fact that he is the 2nd largest guy there and does not want to accidentally collide with/step on the smaller people. But he has fun and I sit by the window and listen or play games with the other people who abstain.

We always play all the games. We lured several people in for a flying frog game where we play aliens conquering Earth. We also played a role playing game names Rusalka, Ransom Notes, Monikers, Werewolf, and so many more.

The highlight of the weekend for me is always the costume contest. Last time we won most original and they're still talking about it, which made me super proud. This year we went as an alien and he went as an agent. Super fun. We won again, so Im super proud. I wore my medal into work today I was so excited. But the best costumes I found were the family who went as Labyrinth characters. She was Sarah, he was Bowie, and their daughter was Toby. Another couple went as Cocaine Bear and tore open bricks of flour. We had to pause the contest to sweep. Some friends of ours phoned it in with a store bought Wizard of Oz costume (no judgement, they're not as into the costumes as I am) but it was made accidentally great because another friend went as a t rex and proceeded to chase them down the yellow brick road before tripping and landing on his compressor. This was not planned but he rolled with it, screaming about how he was melting. But the grestest costume who should have beaten us by a lot (they did win best presentation) was the large group who went as our host. They all dressed as the professor and carried props of things he drags with him. So one of them had a huel bottle, one had a copy of his board game, and I couldn't make out the rest because I was in my dome and it was blurry and twinkle. But the best part? The VERY BEST PART? Two different groups decided to do this independently. There was a whole group with the professor and then a couple went as the professor and his former assistant, the Deputy. Again, nobody spilled the beans it was just a random happenstance. Love it. The professor probably busted something laughing that hard. We are already kicking back and forth ideas for next year but we agree: No More Cardboard!!

Love love loooove!!

Disgaea 7 DLC Episode: That Time I got Reincarnated as a Slime

Part 1: The Great Rimuru

Fuji: "Hot damn, there really is a huge festival going on right now."

Pirilika: "See Fuji? What did I tell ya? You should stop doubting my sources. Since I'm right, let's head back and get changed-"

Fuji: "Screw that. If the festival's here, then those grand prizes from the games should be here too. Each one looks like they're worth a fortune! I better grab them before someone else gets their hands on them!"

Pirilika: "But Fuji, I've waited so long to wear a Kimono to go along with the occasion! I don't want to waste this opportunity!"

Fuji: "That sounds like a you problem, Piriko. If it means that much to ya, just rush back and change then meet me here after I won everything!"

Pirilika: "But Fuji-"

Fuji: "Can't talk, money's calling." runs off.

Pirilika: "Ugh! By the time I get back, he'll probably be ready to go home. I want to enjoy it together him... what do I do?"

???: "Maybe I can help."

Pirilika: "Huh? Who are you?"

Oni girl: "I'm just a tourist who happened to be a clothes designer. You want to wear a Yukata, right? I brought some extra materials with me, so I can make one for you."

Pirilika: "You will?! Thank you so much! This must be my lucky day!"

Oni Girl: *giggles* "Don't worry. I love seeing people try on the outfits I make."

Pirilika: "I'm a bit of a designer myself, so I know the feeling. My name's Pirilika. It's nice to meet you."

Oni Girl: "Likewise. I'm..."

-meanwhile...-

Fuji: "Okay, the first game should be around here."

Male Warrior: "Come one, come all! Test your luck and try to get the grand prize, our golden sardine!"

Fuji: "Jackpot!" Goes up to the stand. "Okay, so all I have to do is get the biggest fish? This'll be easy."

Male Warrior: "And... begin!"

Fuji: "...Now!" makes his strike and grabs the fish. "Hell yeah! Now this is a beast of the sea!"

Male Warrior: "Amazing! Everyone, let's congratulate our two winners!"

Fuji: "Hang on... two winners?"

Young guy: "Oh, you got the giant fish too, huh? I didn't think they were able to fit more than one in this tank."

Fuji: "Hey, the hell's the big idea putting in enough fish for two winners?!"

Male Warrior: "Sir, there's a lot more smaller fish in the tank compared to the big ones. I had to in order to guarantee at least one person wins in case all the slot fills up."

Young guy: "I guess that makes sense, but who gets the grand prize?"

Male Warrior: "Well, in the case of a tie, you're free to fight it out against each other for the golden sardine!"

Fuji: "Oh, I get it now, you did this on purpose so you can watch all your customers duke it out. No wonder this was too easy."

Male Warrior: "Sir, I have no clue what you're talking about. I'm operating a legitimate business here."

Fuji: "As much as I want to call shenanigans, starting a riot would only stop me from getting those other prizes..." Takes out his sword. "Guess I have no choice but to cut ya down."

Young guy: "Don't think I'll give up that golden sardine without a fight!"

Part 2: The Oni Princess, Shuna

Fuji: "Damn, you really are one tough nut to crack."

Young guy: (That was a close one. That sword being able to cut down my defenses started to remind me of when I first met Hinata.)

Raphael: (If Fuji managed to successfully landed 3 more blows, your odds of victory would have been 0.)

Young guy: (That close?! I'm really glad you analyzed his sword right before the fight, Raphael.)

Fuji: "Tch. Guess this means I missed out on that payload. Ah well, I can still snag those other grand prizes and make plenty of money selling them out."

Rimuru: "Other grand prizes?" (Crap, does this mean I have to face him in the other gaming areas too? I don't think I can last too long against that legendary weapon of his.)

Raphael: (Permission to make a suggestion?)

Rimuru: (You got an idea Raphael? Let's hear it.) "..." (Ah! That'll work perfectly!) "Oi! Hold up a moment! How about we work together to get those grand prizes?"

Fuji: "No thanks. I ain't interested in splitting the cash."

Rimuru: "No, what I mean is, I'll buy every grand prize I win off ya. I promised my friends back home some great souvenirs while I'm here. You only want to sell them, right? If I pay you each of them for their worth, then it shouldn't be a problem."

Fuji: "Actually... that's not a bad idea. I can get behind that. Hang on, you're not going to use your own currency to pay me, are ya?!"

Rimuru: "Hmm? Is gold not any good in Hinomoto?"

Fuji: "G-G-G-Gold?!"

Rimuru: "Here, take a look." Shows Fuji a gold coin.

Fuji: "No way! This coin alone is worth a million HL!" (Normally I'd be able to smell this kind of cash from a mile away! Has my nose gone bad? Who is this guy?!)

Rimuru: Puts the coin away. "So, we have a deal?"

Fuji: "Y-Yeah, sure. I'll tag along... for now at least."

Rimuru: "Wonderful. I'm Rimuru, by the way. I'm not a bad slime."

Fuji: "Uuuhh... slime???"

Rimuru: Changes to his slime form. "Tada! See?"

Fuji: "The hell?!"

Rimuru: "What? Never seen a slime before?"

Fuji: "Of course I haven't! Slimes are not a native species to Hinomoto!"

Rimuru: "...WHAT?!!!"

Fuji: "Let's just get those prizes."

-later...-

Fuji: "Alright, looks like the next game is the honeycomb."

Rimuru: "Ah, I haven't played this one in a long time." (It was quite a classic as a kid in my previous life.) "We need to cut the umbrella out to get the jaded prinny, right? I'm a bit rusty so it might take me a while to pull it off."

Fuji: "Heh, just let me do my worst and I'll have it out in no time."

Rimuru: "Your worst???"

-later...-

Fuji: "Alright! That was easy. Now hand over that jaded prinny."

Magic Knight: "I'm sorry, that young lady over there just took our last one."

Fuji: "You gotta be kidding me!" Runs over to the Oni Girl. "Hey! Hand over that prinny!"

Oni Girl: "Hmm? You mean me? Sorry, but I need to give this to someone."

Fuji: "I need that thing more, and I'll yank it by force if I have to!"

Part 3: Benimaru, the Right Hand Prince

Pirilika: "Fuji! Stop picking on my new friend!"

Fuji: "Piriko? You know her?"

Pirilika: "Yeah, since you took off without me, I've been traveling around with Shuna! She even made me this Kimono to wear for the day! Isn't it cute?"

Fuji: "Y-Yeah... looks good on ya..."

Pirilika: "So you do like it! I'm really glad. Thank you so much again for your help, Shuna, and sorry Fuji was being mean to you."

Shuna: "It's alright, Pirilika. I'm just glad the jaded prinny is still intact."

Pirilika: "Oh, you managed to win it? You really are good with a needle. I know! I should hire you to help out with my company!"

Shuna: "I'm flattered, but I'm already devoted to working for someone else."

Pirilika: "Aww..."

Shuna: "B-But, I'll be more than happy to share some new ideas with you for clothes. I'm sure your customers would be interested in what's popular in Tempest."

Pirilika: "That's a great idea! And I can share with you Tempura's trendiest styles!"

Shuna: "Sounds like a deal to me."

Fuji: "Hey, can you calm down with your fluffy friendship? I'm suffocating over here!"

Pirilika: "S-Sorry Fuji! I didn't mean to make your allergies act up."

Fuji: "Don't apologize! You're making it worse!"

Rimuru: "There you are, Fuji. I was wondering where you took off to."

Fuji: "The hell have you been, Rimuru?"

Rimuru: "I told you, I was rusty with that game. By the time I finished, the prize was already long gone."

Shuna: "Don't worry, Great Rimuru. I won the prize just for you."

Rimuru: "Oh Shuna. Thanks a bunch."

Shuna: "Of course. You know I'm always happy to help you out."

Pirilika: "You know each other?"

Shuna: "Great Rimuru is the leader of the Tempest Federation that I work for."

Pirilika: "So Rimuru's your boss? Nice to meet you, sir. I'm Pirilika, fellow Otaku and designer."

Rimuru: "Nice to meet you too."

Fuji: "What did I just say about all the fluff?"

Rimuru: "Hmm? You okay Fuji?"

Pirilika: "He has an empathy allergy."

Rimuru: "Empathy allergy? Sounds a little overdramatic."

Raphael: (Warning, Fuji is on the urge to puking excessive amounts of blood.)

Rimuru: (Wait, he's being serious?! When did this become a thing?!)

Raphael: (Records of this specific allergic reaction are currently unknown.)

Rimuru: (You don't say... So I guess there's no treatment for it right now?)

Raphael: (There's a 50% chance your potions shall give Fuji temporary relief from his allergies.)

Rimuru: (Only temporary, huh? Well, I guess it's worth a shot). "Hey Fuji, try using this potion."

Fuji: "Why, so you can turn me into some kind of animal?"

Rimuru: "It's just a healing potion, Fuji. At worse, it'll just have no affect on ya."

Fuji: "Fine." Takes it and uses it. "Hey, that does feel a little better."

Rimuru: "Your allergies shouldn't bother you at least for a little while now."

Fuji: "Perfect, now I can go all out for the last game."

-later...-

Pirilika: "So this is the final game, the sword draw arena. It's all about speed and timing your strikes! It's perfect for you Fuji!"

Fuji: "As long as I'm not against a certain someone, I should have this in the bag no problem."

Rimuru: "That's good. Remember, I'm paying you for each grand prize we win."

Fuji: "Trust me, I know. Just the thought of that jackpot has gotten me all motivated!"

Shuna: "Good luck, Fuji!"

Fuji: "Heh, that potion's actually working if those words don't have an effect on me." Walks away.

-later...-

Male samurai: "We are now at the final match for the sword draw arena! The winner will be walking away with the grand prize, the diamond rabbit! Please give it up for our two finalists, Fuji and Benimaru!"

Benimaru: "I had a feeling you'd be my last opponent here, given how merciless you were in your other matches."

Fuji: "Hey, there's no time to show mercy on the battlefield. I always do my worst, no matter who I'm against."

Benimaru: "Good. That means I won't have to hold back either. Especially after I promised my Lord to win."

Fuji: "Well then, hope you're ready to go to your master empty handed."

Male samurai: "Are our contestants ready? Begin!"

-after the battle...-

Then two continue to clash swords with each other.

Male samurai: "Wow! Neither Fuji or Benimaru are letting up! Each strike they take gets perfectly countered by the opponent! How many more draws can they take before one of them gets winded?!"

Pirilika: "Keep it up Fuji! Look a him go. He's got this in the hag, right?"

Rimuru: "You mean "got this in the bag" and I don't know. It's been a while since I've seen Benimaru go all out like this."

Pirilika: "Wait, you know Fuji's opponent?"

Shuna: "He's my older brother."

Pirilika: "Your brother?!"

Rimuru: "He's also my right hand man at the Federation. If I knew he was here, I would've offered to fight instead."

Raphael: (That would be ill advised as you are still recovering your magicules from your previous fight.)

Rimuru: (It's not like we would be in a real fight, Raphael!)

Pirilika: "Ooh... I didn't mean to-"

Shuna: "It's okay, Pirilika. Fuji's your friend, right? It's only natural to want to root for him."

Pirilika: "Really?

Rimuru: "She's right. We won't hold it against ya."

Pirilika: "You two are so kind. Okay, I'll keep believing in Fuji, no matter what!"

Fuji: "I'll admit, you're one hell of a swordsman. This turned out to be one hell of a fight."

Benimaru: "Turned out?"

Fuji: "Yeah, because it's about to end right...now!" Strikes Benimaru's sword, breaking it.

Benimaru: -!!-

Male Samurai: "Ohh! And just like that, Fuji shatters Benimaru's sword into pieces, thus disqualifying his opponent!"

Benimaru: "So that was your plan. You focused your hardest strikes on different parts of my blade to weaken them overtime and distracted me with swift, weaker strikes so I won't catch on until it's too late."

Fuji: "I told you, I always do my worst! If I can't beat you one way, I'll find some other way to cut you down!"

Male Samurai: "Ladies and gentlemen, we have our winner!"

Benimaru: "Congratulations, Fuji. Keep in mind, I won't lose next time we face each other."

Fuji: "Honestly, I'm looking forward to a rematch with you someday. But for now, it's time to collect my payment!"

-later...-

Pirilika: "Congratulations, Fuji! I knew you could do it!"

Rimuru: "Yeah. It's pretty rare for Benimaru to lose to anyone."

Fuji: "Well, there's a first time for... wait, how would you know that?"

Rimuru: "Ah well, you see..."

Benimaru: Walks up to the group. "My apologies, Great Rimuru, but I failed to win the prize as promised."

Rimuru: "Ah, don't worry about it, Benimaru! You did great back there. I'm proud of yeah."

Fuji: "Great Rimuru? YOU'RE his lord?!"

Shuna: "Sorry we didn't say anything earlier. We didn't want you to lose focus."

Fuji: "If I knew that earlier, I would have thrown the match!"

Benimaru: "I thought you said you always did your worst."

Fuji: "Yeah, and that includes getting money. Since we were both getting the prize for Rimuru, I would've just saved us a lot of time!"

Rimuru: "Yeah, until I get plenty of complaints from anyone betting on the match. Either way, thank you for all your help Fuji."

Fuji: "Hey, don't thank me! That potion of yours wore off during the fight. Just give me the money we agreed on."

Rimuru: "Uh... about that... I can't pay you in full just yet."

Fuji: "...what...?"

Rimuru: "It turns out these prizes are worth a lot more than I thought and I didn't bring enough coins with me, so I can only pay you half their total value right now until I go home and get more."

Fuji: "YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS!!!"

Pirilika: "Fuji, it's an honest mistake. Don't be too mad at him. All he has to do is go home and come back with the money, right?"

Fuji: "Hell no! How do I know he won't dip the first moment he get?! This is how you get people to walk over you, Piriko! You give them an inch and they take a mile. I'm not letting them leave until we get paid!"

Benimaru: "As much as I respect you in battle, I won't tolerate anyone who threatens Great Rimuru."

Fuji: "Bring it on! I won't hesitate to thrash you again!"

Rimuru: "Hold it! We were planning on staying here in Hinomoto for a while anyway. Why don't we just find a way to pay them back while we're here?"

Pirilika: "Well, if Shuna doesn't mind helping me with some new clothes, then we can use the profits to help pay us back."

Shuna: "If Great Rimuru doesn't mind, then I'd love to. It would be an honor."

Pirilika: "Awesome! Then I welcome all of you to stay with us on my ship as we continue exploring Hinomoto!"

Rimuru: "You're traveling around in a ship? This turned out to be a blessing in disguise."

Benimaru: "Indeed. Now we don't have to worry about anyone breaking into out carriage everyday."

[abimee]

i do not remember (or, i guess, know) much about final fantasy exceptt watching my dad play ff13 because he wanted to show me how cool it looks anyways i wnated to ask you about. the little cactus people. if they are people? their faces always look like :0 how do you feel about them i think theyre neat (and i hope they arent actually really annoying in gameplay or something) your posts about final fantasy reminded me how nice it was to watch my dad play that game and have no idea what the hell was going on but he was having fun which is the important part

heehee those are the CACTUAR

theyre funny little low level enemies out in Thanalan so i dont think people think about them much anymore but theyre super cute I think. they're also the mascot for the game and universe's Casino, the Gold Saucer, and theyre called the Sabotenders

there's also another version of them on another planet in this game called the Gigantender, and one of them is fucking. spicy hot red because it's a special kill mark, and their head has SMALLER CACTUAR shapes on it. this is the maliktender and me and my bestie love this big ol bitch that when he met up with me and moosh and spotted it in the distance we both RAN to it

theres also a cute questline to get the cactuary minion where you have to find a zombie's three cactuar friends and my favorite bit about it is you find a cactuar friend of his bathin in a hot spring under a waterfall. its just super cute

you also learn my favorite blue mage spell 1000 NEEDLES from a cactuar too. idk why this is my favorite blue mage spell and its not really an interesting fact but i love sharing it :]

OH AND MY BESTIE HAS A MINION OF THE GIGANTENDER. AND YOULL NEVER GUESS WHAT ITS CALLED.

MICRO GIGANTENDER

overall; cactuar are super good. theyre also in WORLD OF FINAL FANTASY which is a video game i really love and they make me laugh because theyre the shitheadiest enemies where theyll jump you for a fight, dodge your hit, and then run away when its their turn. literally the funniest thing ever. kiss your

WAIT I FORGOT THERES ALSO MOON CACTUAR. THE LUNATENDER!!!!!

this is the killmark like the maliktender on the moon ^ known as the lunatender queen. shes so beauty. and her little commonplace guys the regular lunatenders who pose all day v

you can also get TWO!!!!! minions of these guys. one is the prince lunatender (i own) and the ROYAL lunatender (i own)

also not really related to the cactuars but there used to be a crafting ingredient called the lunatender blossom that people were hiking up in price like nuts on the marketboard and so i went in and undercutted them to make their day worse and so whenever i see the lunatenders i smile so wide

overall (AGAIN): we love the cactuar. the lunatenders. and they love you

I like to imagine that before working on the revenge under Ed and Stede, Izzy's bouts of regression were a lot more private and repressed but due to the increase in stress of people not listening to him and of the unfamiliar environment it started becoming a lot more prevalent for him to start to feel fuzzy but he'd always pushed it back. Until one day he crashed

I love your writing so if you could explore any ideas of what mightve happened when he finally crashed that would be great 😭😭

Oh my goosh ;0;

Like, even on the Queen Anne, Izzy was definitely more likely to push back those fuzzy feelings of regression. Because he's apart of a scary group of pirates, Blackbeard's crew! But, at least then he was a right hand man so he had his own room to hide away when slipping and had leverage on the othe crewmates so he could just excuse his slipping for just, being more cranky.

But, before all that? When he was just another crewmate on some ragtime pirate crew? Oh gosh, poor guy keep it all bottled up.

Until he couldn't. Of course, he bunks with others, he doesn't have that luxury of privacy. Maybe after a raid that didn't go as good as it could had- and that's just another stress added onto the swordsman, one more that just didn't help him with the fuzzy feelings he had been feeling that day.

Unfortunately, this crew wasn't as understanding or nice when Izzy crashed into a smaller headspace ;×; so, that definitely just made Izzy hide that part of him even more💔

So much so that even when he was on the Revenge, Izzy held it all back. Even though he's seen other crewmates were tiny, he just has those yucky memories of being bullied/taunted by that crew yeeears back ;;

Izzy holds it all back but, eventually everything has it's breaking point.

And one day on the Revenge none of the crew are listening to him, they're not working on the task!! Izzy is just, stressed beyond belief and, he can feel that all too firmilar feeling in his chest. But he can't just leave to his room, he's been given his duties to over look the crew.

But, then, maybe one of the crewmates ( *cough* Lucius or Wee-John) start kinda teasing or being extra difficult to Izzy. And, Izzy just can't handle it anymore.

He yells at them but, not his regular angry yelling. His fist are balled up at his side, stomping his foot, tears filling and falling down his reddened face as he's unable to stop the tyke tantrum/frustrations from taking over :^0

The rest of the crew grow silent as they watch the swordsman crumbling up, hugging his arms around his chest tightly and sobbing- they feel that they've gone way way too far this time.

It's not long until the crew hear the quickened steps of the two captain's coming up to the deck (hearing Izzy yelling like that definitely always gets those two to see what's happening)

Ed clearly sees the sobbing man and sighs softly as he walks over to Izzy. Scooping him up and just silently walking away with the weepy Izzy, leaving the crew and Stede very confused.

Stede just, tells the crew to either continue their task or figure out what on earth they did to Izzy. And then Stede vanishes below deck to join Ed and Izzy.

The gentleman pirate knows a tiny one when he sees one. Izzy's hands are all balled up as he's rubbing at his teary eyes as Ed is trying to calm him down, which, isn't going all that well-

Stede sits besides them, giving Ed a 'let me try' nudge as Ed slides Izzy onto Stede's lap.

'My, such big emotions for such a little boy, yeah?"

Izzy whines, practically headbutting Stede's shoulder, but, doesn't move away when Stede starts to pat his back.

"Big emotions can be awfully scary, aren't they?" Stede muses, "Well, I'm proud that you're allowing yourself to feel these emotions, but something is telling me you have been keeping allllll these big emotions in, huh?"

Izzy just stiffly nods. Ed is just sitting there, kinda amazed how quick Stede is able to descalate/soothe Izzy.

Stede sorta moves his arms to where he's craddling Izzy with one arm while petting Izzy's hair.

"There, there, lets get all these tears out, love. Take your time, Edward is riight there and I'm here too," Stede says, nudging Ed to agree with this.

It's a fair few minutes before Izzy is calming down. Probably squirming to get out of Stede's lap, reaching out for Ed. Stede smiles and slips the tiny Izzy onto Ed's lap.

Definitely time for a conversation between the three. But, right now? Right now they have a very sleepy tyke in their room and getting him settled down is their top priority ♡♡♡♡

THE FIRST PART

ITS PACT TIME!!!! PATH OF FIRE LETS GO!!!!

SO gwynnie is full on The Desert Beast when The Pact lands. just this legendary concept of a bounty hunter. the Idea of him is enhanced because the majority of people in elona (like 99%) have no clue what a "sylvari" is so gwyn has that lil extra spice to his legend.

theres the cavaliers who are annoyed by his presence for not following the laws, being respected as the one who really keeps amnoon safe, and generally being very curt with the local "law enforcement"

theres the people who are frightened of him more because of the legends "this big ass scary mfer is gonna keep us SAFE?????? NO. D: youve heard how dangerous he is!!!!" and theyre a smaller amount than

the people who think "hes pretty cool :)" the ones whove been helped by him and seen him help others. stuff like helping people reach amnoon, getting people in need clothes, water, food, toys for their children, healthcare for themselves, loved ones and their pets etc etc. hes a very good boi where ever he can be.

all this to say, its very confusing for the commander (Belial) when they land to sort out the legends they hear about him. Belial is of course like "oh shit well this is a lot of variety i gotta know whats up with this guy"

gettin ahead of myself- The Pact lands. Initially its just the commander and a small Pact force to see Whats Up and Happening around. The intro to PoF happens, Belial spends two weeks there gathering intel and sends a letter back to the Marshal, everybody else shows up.

Belial in those two weeks heard a bit of everything about this desert beast guy and thinks "bet i could hire him to guide me through this fucky unstable desert." One night when they're walking around amnoon with company (Trahearne, Louis, Pyrs) they spot a dude at the bounty boards and think

">:} das da guy. Nows my Chance" and strike up a conversation. He seems very uninterested in whatever Belial's On About until they say the amount they're willing to pay him. RICH gremlin. like, better than some royals have paid him for a single bounty.

(in the background of this trahearne and pyrs are like"....so thats a sylvari guy???? right??? How :0" and louis is already thinking up Priory Interview Questions but he's also very tired. All three have noticed that he was completely unphased by Belial, a fucking 1.5 foot tall ASURA. someone, theoretically, hes never seen before. also have noticed that he wears elonian clothing, and his voice sounds like a Sylvari's voice but hes picked up the local accent a bit.)

Belial hires him at a very expensive rate because they do not care at all about money BUT THIS DUDE!! he interesting gotta know more!!! ex-Grand Magister Moment. Louis and Trahearne are like "hey. hey. hey belial???? did you vet him at all?????" because they did not mention the beast or his numerous legends in either of their report letters. and belial is like "😎 no i did not. that would fuck up The Experience(tm)" and then Louis & Trahearne go "why are you like this"

My personal reviews of binders and trans tape.

So I've been binding for a few months now and I thought I would give some reviews. I have a rather large chest (about a 38 DD). Most binding methods I see are done by people with smaller chests. I thought I would give my opinions for my big coconut homies.

Please remember that these are my opinions from my experience. Of course it'll be different for everyone. Also I'm trying to get as flat as I can. Some people who use binders aren't aiming to be flat and that's fine! This is just from one they/them who wishes to not have coconuts. Look into these binders yourself to find the right one for you.

One last thing, if y'all would like, I can model the compression top, for them and my gc2b binders. Let me know and I'll be happy to do it so you can sew how they fit me.

1. Tomboy X compression top: 6/10.

It's like a tight sports bra. It does make my breast a bit smaller. I normally use it at the gym and on the days I take breaks from my binder. It keeps things in place. I recommend it for when you need to take a break or when you work out at the gym.

2. For them binder: 0/10

I tried it and it did nothing for me. A normal sports bra did more for me. I followed the steps on the website. It doesn't have normal sizes which I find really annoying and can be potentially dangerous. You need to be careful with what sizes you wear or else you could hurt yourself. My size was Gemini and again it did nothing for me. The people who model them most of the time are skinny and have smaller chests. I think I've only seen like 3 plus size models on their Instagram. Plus their binder killed my shoulders. It's also hella expensive. It's a nice idea and I will say I love the feeling of their binder but I kinda feel like it's a rip off. At least to someone with big mommy milkers. I really think they need to do regular sizes and not cutesy named one. I get the idea behind it but I think it's more important to say this is a large binder and not call it a Gemini or whatever. Like I said, the vast majority of people who recommend the for them binder are skinny and have smaller chest. Most of the larger chest people say it doesn't work for them. They also fit me weird and I just don't like it.

3. Trans Tape: 3/10

I really, really tried trans tape. I watched so many videos and read on how to do it but I couldn't figure it out. I'm giving it some leeway since I got really frustrated and could have done better. Plus I love the idea of wearing it for multiple days and to be able to sleep, shower and workout in it. On the other hand, it's also really expensive since you'll have to buy it at least every month. For me, it's really hard to use and honestly too expensive. I still have some tape left so I'll give it another shot and might ask a close friend to help. Also this is just my opinion but trans tape seems like it can be more harmful than a regular binder. It can rip your skin if you take it off wrong, can hurt your nipple if you don't have a nipple gard and cause blisters. While binders can cause back pain if you wear the wrong size or wear it too long, it doesn't put your nipples at risk. I also don't like the thought I might be walking around a store or at the gym and have it slowly peel off. I would die of embarrassment if one of my coconuts just popped up because the tape came loose. I feel like it's a bit risky wearing it after a few days.

4. gc2b: 8/10

Now I've seen a lot of people trashing gc2b a lot lately. Saying things like their binders fall apart easily and get stretched out within a month. My experience so far is that they're great. I have a couple of their binders and none of them are falling apart and I wear them nearly daily. They do have a few loose threads here and there but again I wear them a lot so that's to be expected. I usually just burn the threads to make sure they don't get worse. I had one for about a month now and it hasn't stretched out much. They make me fairly flat and I love them so far. My biggest problems with them is that they roll up a lot and they can be super hot where I live. Other than that, they've been great. I got them really quickly in the mail and their team is super nice. I had to return a binder cause I didn't like how it fit me and I got my money back basically the same day I sent it back.

So those are my reviews. If I try anymore binders, I'll add to this list. And I want to give y'all a quick reminder: no one has a completely flat chest. Not even cis men. They have a bit of a bump on their chests due to fat or muscles. I know that it can be frustrating to not be completely flat but take your time. And PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD BIND SAFELY! YOU CAN SERVE HURT YOURSELF IF YOU DON'T!

[forsakenwitchery]

I have an Elegoo Mars which is like a dinosaur of resin printers at this point, and I got so tired of cutting models in parts or trying to fit them in a bit (or way) smaller than I need them that I just... Said F it and ordered Photon Mono X 6k the other day after having 4 out of 5 partly failed prints last week for like the first time ever. HOPEFULLY this will actually prompt me to finish Merrin and Shadowheart since it'll be way less hussle to bring them up to the standart I set for myself with a decent printing size and like 10 times faster printing.

I usually don't buy ummm things as big without doing a shitload of reading, but this just felt like a quality of life purchase after two sleepless nights monitoring printing on Elegoo that just... Yeah.

Looking at it now, it doesn't look so bad, but taking the time and the limited space for working with toxic resin and isopropyl into account... It's either a better printer or barely any printing at all. But I really like how all the Egyptian stuff came out since they're the ones I modeled from 0 still not totally understanding what I'm doing. 😹

Also stocked up on clear and grey resin 'cause I've got some ideas for how to make a super pretty well hopefully it will turn out as pretty as I think it should sphere for Merrin and I want a transparent base for Shad's astral prison for LED reasons sooo there's that. Fingers crossed Shadowheart will be done for July since there's an elven photoplaner then. Last year's was fire!

[goldenslowpoke]

Okay so I don't usually infodump on here often. I know people don't follow me for my personal issues. Actually I don't know why most of you follow me.

But man I'm really down in it right now and I don't wanna get "whiny" on Discord so you all get to hear about my fear of rejection and how it, and the general online community I run with these days, has me feeling like I'm spinning my wheels and.... dare I say increasingly a failure?

This one's long but I'm not gonna edit it down for your sake so read it if you want or pass it if you don't. Might sneak something in the middle of it just for funsies.

Believe it or not I'm staring at the Keep Reading line because I don't freaking know where to start here there's just so much.

I guess let's start with I'm one of the moderators for a fairly niche but also fairly robust RPing Discord. I'm also the oldest active user there at 30 (and soon to be a half).

It's a server that's still recruiting fresh-faced 18 year olds so that's a 12 year age gap my friends. Which was never really an issue for me until my mother died earlier this year and now I'm trying to balance working 24-29 hours a week plus doing all the work of maintaining a house alone. In short, they're full of youthful energy and half the time I just want to sleep.

Which is where we circle back to the RPing Discord part of it. It's an RP Discord, we do big group RPs. Which used to be fun for me back when I worked 20-24 hours a week and lived with my mother, also when those RPs averaged like.... 10-12 people in them. These days they average 16-18 people in them and I have it feels like half the time to pay attention to them.

So you know, obvious answer is "well just step back from that big stuff. Keep moderating but start trying to do smaller group stuff." Which ordinarily would be the right answer but I have a problem. I'm... weird by their standards. In more than just my availability. I'm a not-yet-outed mtf (listen that's an entirely different longpost I could make about my fears over not passing the public perception test) and girl lover, this is a server that is still probably 75% ftms and gay men (of bara/dilf taste).

You can psychoanalyze me all you want on this one but I want to do stuff like Magical Girls or even just Anime Slice of Life, but I know there's no real market for it there. I've tried floating some of my ideas out before but usually it's struck down as on the lighter end being "too niche" or on the harder end I've actually gotten an "Ew why would people want to do something like that?" There's a few folks who I think would like it, but they are like me either too busy to notice or too new to know me well enough.

I've tried other Discord communities but they're all either skewed too young or too fucking weird even for me (I'm making a side blog for some of the absolute trash I've found on this hunt don't worry). I've poked around Roll20 and Reddit but honestly those sites scare the shit out of me with their applications and such. Look, my tabletop experience is about 6 sessions of Monsterhearts (before timezones doomed the group) and a session 0 of D&D (honestly it just wasn't that fun of a setup). Not to mention R20 and Reddit are just flooded with 5E games (thanks Critical Role, Honor Among Thieves, and Baldur's Gate 3...).

So instead of getting a chance to fuck around and find out, I'm stuck watching a bunch of college students with more free time than me spin big group RPs out of control faster than my head can keep up, so I lose the plot, and then limp out of the room feeling like a failure and a bad moderator. And also posting a long "get it off my chest" post on Tumblr about it.

That's it, there's no great resolution here. I literally just needed to say this stuff before it turned into what it usually does for me which is envy and hatred.

Watch "1200hp Buick Grand National leaving the car show…" on YouTube

It's supposed to be like a NASCAR and some of them have it set up like it but the Buick Grand national when it sold stock could go about 0 to 60 in like 3 seconds and the quarter mile and about 8:00 it's very very very fast for a car for a stock car too and Chris drove around in one his color different he says real fast it wasn't massively impressed it's because they put a different motor in and it was a smaller motor is the six but it was powerful but not that powerful and he jammed it and it still was really not much he said but for Kathy is very fast she loved zooming around in it. Tennessee Trump in it and he did a nice burnout and you drove off and he was happy about it he says that's a very cool exit controlled didn't wipe out and you went in motion and he said wow and that's impressive it shows the power of the car and once again any says why since it's like a NASCAR but on the road. So we're about to turn it up I said I want you to stop turning it up on me like Billy c wants to the max and that's a stupid thing to do that plan is ridiculous although attract my people it would attract foreigners my people would have to move out and the maximum out and you would move out. Said calling us over to world War II maybe calling Florence because I'm related to them so he told people they said wow that sucks I said how many more stupid ideas do we have to figure out before this idiots he stops and so what do you mean I said you're not doing anything for your own work and you want to rest on all sorts of functions that are probably not right and functions are really doing things did you fall for it because the mask around the code but that's the hide the functions are doing not the other way around. Decided to get with it a little bit forgot and stuff with it and then decided to leave it's a nightmare they didn't really do anything. What this means is we're going to race across the country he's trying to bring people across the bridge and they can't get there there's a big war to do it and they're going to lose a lot of people tonight trying to do that huge numbers and trying to bring ships down to threaten the bridge and now their ships are going to be held and probably taken or destroyed cuz they're going to put ordinance in them and they can't let him go by to put weapons on them they can't let him go by pretty much a small arms and you can't let him go by because it's an operable bridge it's going to shut them down and he knew it and he was doing the wrong thing they should have used the armies to leave now it's too late my guess is going to shut it down cuz we have to the max are out there trying to figure out what to do instead of 20 guns and really the bridge is only half mile upper or less look at the fire armor 357 Magnum gold mile it says you can't risk it and it's about a mile to the highway to see if you have one rifle and AK-47 will go 2 miles and the empty clip and you don't want the bullets go and they know about it. So screwed and it's stuck they have to go north or not at all similar thing there cuz Max are in the cities now so they might decide to go try and take over the starkiller base.

— 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐁𝐄𝐑𝐓𝐇𝐎𝐋𝐃𝐓 𝐇𝐎𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐑.

𝐖𝐀𝐑𝐍𝐈𝐍𝐆𝐒: sLight angst, just a lil bit. & language!

𝐀𝐔𝐓𝐇𝐎𝐑'𝐒 𝐍𝐎𝐓𝐄𝐒: this is bertholdt x fem! reader.

"love me tender, love me sweet; never let me go."

he is,, so sweet.

quite closed off at first, as one would imagine— nevertheless, though, he's incredibly gentle to you, and just an all around sweetheart. bertholdt's known for his kinder tendencies, but with you, it's an entirely different playing field.

you would sit with both him and reiner during mealtimes, which typically goes either one of two ways: it's quiet, and mainly just simple conversation between the three of you. or, reiner gets pulled into some shitty shenanigan (usually enforced by connie or sasha), ultimately dragging you and your poor boyfriend with him.

^ one time, the three of you + connie and jean were challenged to steal a single pound of bread from commander shadis' quarters, without getting caught. you were nearly caught lmao, bertholdt had to enact his long limbs™ to reach out and yAnk you back into the shadows. it was romantic <3

when it isn't nighttime, cuddles with him are a motherfucking godsend. the two of you alternate between little spoon & big spoon, because both of y'all need that sort of comfort. he cherishes the moments where he can pull you into his chest, burying his face within your hair while the two of you serenade in the silence.

when it is nighttime, though, and the two of you are fast asleep, it's literal hell JDJFK. everyone knows about bert's heinous sleeping habits, and with yoU in the mixture?? lord, he's kicked you off the bed before.

he felt AWFUL

"oHhmygoDy/NareyouokAywhaThapPened-"

you end up developing a system, where you just fucking latch onto his back while the two of you sleep, locking him in place while also comfortably cuddling. sometimes you drool on his back lmao, but he doesn't mind.

matching PAJAMAAAAAS

yes, it was his idea. don't make fun of him, he's trying his bEST-

during expeditions, he quietly frets over you. while everyone is prepping for going outside the walls, he stares at you from a distance, trying his best to remain positive. reiner typically has to snap him out of it, placing a hand on his shoulder and telling him to focus.

he, however, does not focus!! the entire time, he's using his goddamn height to his advantage to glance above the crowd, making sure you're doing okay. he doesn't want to openly worry for you, though, because he doesn't want you to feel belittled. he's aware that you're strong, and he's aware that you're capable. still, you're his. he worries.

he'll drop his horse on its ass in order to save you from a dickless ogre, i'll tell y'all that much.

while reiner has grown a liking towards you, annie couldn't care less for your well-being. not at first, anyway. she really, really doesn't like you, or the threat you oppose towards their mission. of course, you don't even know about said mission, but nevertheless, bertholdt is better off without you. to her, you're nothing but a casualty.

^ this doesn't mean she can't GROW to like you, of course. for a long time, though she rlly doesn't like you

catching feelings for you wasn't easy at all for bert,, like at all. he constantly attacked himself for growing attached to you, and as his feelings intensified, so did his self hate. it felt as if he was betraying his homeland and the love of his life at the exact same time— everything contradicted against one another, leading to one hell of struggle. poor bby didn't know what he wanted more, to go home or be with you :,))

eventually (i'll let the reader imagine how), he gave in, and the time the two of you spend together is great 🥺

back to actual headcanons JDJF;&&(& bertholdt is OBSESSED with your hands. touching them, kissing them, holding them, etc. the gestures are always quiet, like placing his hand ontop of yours beneath the table, but they're sweet. he loves your hands, ty. in a modern world, he would paint your nails for you and do a DARN GOOD JOB 😭

if he catches you wearing one of his shirts, he'll melt right into the floor. he's a lanky fellow, so the shirt itself would definitely be somewhat loose on you, which he loves. one morning, you were in a rush to get out of the boy's barracks, and you accidentally grabbed his shirt instead of your own. during breakfast, he walked into the mell hall only to see you, iN his bigass shirt, the ends aggressively tucked into your pants so that it wouldn't sag.

he was like :0

nobody even realized that the two of you were an item until, like,, moNths into your relationship. he's keen on keeping things on the down low, he's introverted & constantly struggling xoxo. they found out through ymir, who caught him pecking you on the cheek before curfew. needless to say, she exposed you to the entire girl's bunker that same night.

one time before he asked you out you made a lesbian joke and he took it literally JDJJF

oh, she isn't even into men.

then like a week later he overheard you calling some random salesman in the city attractive and he was so fucking confused

whTsttegoiNgoN

eventually, reiner got sick of it and literally just asked you flat out: "so, what's your ballgame?"

bertholdt had eighteen back to back panic attacks in the corner KDKGKKOH

when it comes to your hobbies, he's got each and every one memorized. through silent pining for you from a distance, he's picked up on the little things. you're an artist? wow, he's obsessed. you're a poet? please, serenade him to sleep with your wishful thinking. you won't even have to tell him, by the time you're together, he just knows.

if you're short, he's,, protective. he's protective either way, but if you're on the smaller scale, he feels this undying need to just encAse you in his arms, protecting you from the outside world. he also wouldn't know how to act a majority of the time KDJKF he's literally a beanstalk of a man, how the fuck does he operate with you??

^ enjoy him having to lean down a considerable amount to kiss you on the forehead jjdhfh

the same goes for if you're of average height!! not too drastic of a difference.

if you're tall, you're a queen. he's humored whenever he sees you towering over the others, and he lOves the fact that he's one of the only ones that towers over you. it's actually really cute, seeing him smile like a cutie as he rests his cheek on the side of your head while the short bitches are biTteR

he's a tad bit obsessive when it comes to treating whatever wounds you may have, because he worries more intensely than most. you get a measly papercut, he's the only wrapping up your finger .7 seconds after you started bleeding. he does this thing once it's tended to where he places a tiny kiss atop the bandages, it's really sweet.

10/10 boyfriend, minus the angst that i refused to include 💞 smd smd SMD SMD

[script-a-world]

Would there be anything I need to know about creating massive space stations and ships, like truly massive? Like a space station that's 100,000km long or a spaceship half that? How about tiny spaceships? Is it also possible for a spaceship that sits like a few people to go long distances or travel FTL? What would be the biggest issue, the mechanics and fuel that make the ship fly or life support for the passengers?

Tex: There's quite a bit to know, particularly with the scope that you've chosen. I've put it into an ordered list, but consider that quite a lot of these items are nearly equivalent to each other in terms of simultaneous importance, and that they're only listed one after another for the sake of reading coherency.

1) Size. The Earth is 12,742 km in diameter, so your space station will be 784.81% the size of Earth, and half of that (so: 50,000 km) would be 392.4% the size of Earth, so:

2) Materials. Like. A lot of it. Jupiter, in comparison to your 100,000 km long ship, is 139,820 km. You want to build Jupiter - and then some.

3) Operations. Is this wholly automated? Is it dummy automation, that requires a person behind a keyboard, or full-blown AI? Are the computers/automated tech relegated to certain sections of your space station/ships, or is it fully-integrated? How is that set up? How is it maintained?

4) Space. Something 100,000 km or 50,000 km big is going to affect the gravitational pulls of the planets you're around, so you can't exactly park your space station or your space ship too close, because you're going to move things off course - it's for the same reason why giant ships on Earth have smaller ships to bring things to/from the port, so they don't run aground.

5) Materials. Again, but this time in a different vein - you're unlikely to find everything you need on a single planet, so where are you getting all of these raw materials from?

6) Manpower. In terms of processing the raw materials, building the ship itself, and maintaining it. Is everything automated? Even if it's ranging from 0% to 95+% automation, how does the tech that makes the tech get fixed if it breaks down?

7) Biologics. If you're having people on board, then that means taking care of everything from basic physical needs (toilets) to psychological things (relationships), on top of things like feeding, clothing, and housing them, regardless of it you go down the stasis route for long-distance trips.

8) Diplomacy. Unless you're worldbuilding in a veritable sandbox, where these people are the only species, ever, you're going to run into other civilizations, and of varying degrees of capability for FTL travel. How do you plan on interacting with them? What if you breach their territory, or if they have preexisting, ongoing conflicts? What if you make friends with one group, only to run into another group that considers the first mortal enemies? How is that going to be handled so nobody tries to wreck your stuff?

9) FTL. Again, if you're capable of making space stations and ships this large, then you've probably already run across at least one solution for FTL travel. There's some math to support it already (arXiv.org), as well as experimental physics (arXiv.org), but there's multiple ideas floating around for you to build off of (Wikipedia).

10) Why? That’s a heck of a lot of people, how did you convince them to do this in the first place? If the motivation isn’t there, the people in all steps of the manufacturing, maintenance, and leadership chains are going to create a systemic failure out of sheer resentment, despondency, or another other reason they might be struggling to accept such a large change in their lives, particularly if you’re expecting an intergenerational exodus onto your station and ships to get it started and keep it going.

I hadn’t covered the small spaceships that you mentioned, but they face nearly all of the same issues as the space station or your 50,000 km big ship. Nearly anything is possible if you really want it to be, but the above listed are the most major considerations when looking at the type of worldbuilding you’re discussing.
