in order for GLaDOS to be a milf, she has to have kids duhhh 🙄!!!

portal 1 cores!!! they r all weirdgirls and they help out with testing/the facility in their own ways. morality helps look after the test subjects, curiosity helps to playtest new test chambers, logic (aka cake) helps come up with new puzzle concepts for tests, and anger sets hazards like turrets and toxic slutch in new tests!

Prompt 245

Now Danny would openly admit, if only to himself, that he had a type when it came to relationships. If they were strong, if they were a threat to him, then chances were he would develop some sort of crush. It was how he had dated Sam and Valerie (And Johnny & Kitty) when he was a bit younger, and hell, Sam had technically succeeded in killing him, even if partly. 

Attraction towards smart people who could kill him was honestly par for the course for a Fenton or Nightingale anyway. 

And he’d also admit he enjoyed a bit of time travel, learning about times and culture long before his time, to the point that he could blend in in ancient times just as easily as the time he had been born in. That it was natural to mutter in a language lost to time. 

So color him surprise when another man perks up in the bar he had paused to get a drink in, vibrant green eyes gleaming in interest and responds in turn. And not just in the language, but able to keep up when he talks about things that once existed but haven’t been rediscovered yet. 

And one thing led to the other, and there might have been some assassins and some shenanigans that end with them both laughing together in an inn and then more and- Okay he has a type alright, and he’s ticking each box! How is that fair?

Hi!! I was thinking, what's your opinion about inktolings? Like I'm 99% sure they'll never be properly canon (due to various reasons including biology), but I wondered if you had any specific thoughts or headcanons about them. I'd love to know :')

in general, personally not a fan of the concept of hybrids in the splatoon world. if it were possible for stable hybrids to happen in a society comprised of so many species that have been intermingling for generations, i dont think we'd see the level of speciation that we do. it makes for messy worldbuilding.

inklings and octolings have had peaceful relations with each other for millennia and with how similar they look, i have zero doubt that some have tried for kids. but biologically speaking squids and octopuses as distant as cats and dogs (maybe even more distant than that, at least cats and dogs share a taxonomic order, squids and octopuses only share a class). the only way id imagine an inktoling to exist would be nothing short of a miracle, and would be sterile, likely with some kind of health issues. the sapient herrings in splatoon can produce hundreds of children and this likely applies at least to other species of fish too. for couples of different species who want children, i think there would be no shortage of children to adopt.

So it occurs to me that I posted most of their lore on my OC blog (though a few posts on here have the story info) and honestly I think it's very important to note that the entire reason a guy from Florida is recruited to help defeat the demon lord isn't him as the hero. His younger brother (by about ten years younger) is the Chosen Hero and... not very good at it. So the goddess (Solei) who had selected the hero has to begrudgingly go back to earth and convince his older brother to help save her world.

(Also Reynold admits to Solei that "Sascha could never be a bad influence. He's the best impulse control I've ever had" and she really doesn't like to hear it. That's terrifying.)

i think something needs to be said about the fact metal sonic was created in the image of someone eggman respects, but was coded to be someone metal himself hates

You all know Starbucks doesn’t operate in Israel, right? Yes, they took legal action against their U.S. union for supporting Palestine, but they do not operate in Israel. They also don’t do fundraisers for the IDF, in spite of what decades-old copypastas will tell you. This general lack of anything direct to do with Israel is presumably why the official BDS campaign doesn’t include Starbucks in its infographics, even if it does encourage participation in organic, concerted Starbucks boycotts if such exists in your area. It’s because boycotting Starbucks doesn’t impact Israel. Israel really could not care if you’re boycotting a chain that doesn’t exist in the country.

I love setting fantasy around and after WWI. It's such a good combination. WWI was a loss-of-innocence on a societal level. There had been this assumption that technology and progress could solve all our problems and make us better people, and then WWI comes and shows us horribly and violently that it does not, and then in the aftermath we have to deal with what this means for us as a society and as people.

Throwing magic into that is a perfect thematic fit, because magic and technology are basically the same thing--people trying to impose their will upon nature. It can do good things or terrible things, but the issue is not necessarily the technology or the magic itself, but the hearts of the people using it, the cost to bring it about, the drain on resources and the effect on the environment and people. In the aftermath of a major conflict, we have to take a long hard look at ourselves and the choices we've made and will continue to make. Are the benefits worth the cost? What is the true nature of man--can we ever trust ourselves again? Have we progressed to a better stage of humanity or reverted back to beasts? There is just so much to explore there. The WWI connection has been built into the genre ever since Tolkien, and it continues to be relevant to our modern world.

I keep thinking about this and it is absolutely bizzare but just say Alderaan blowing up could have been for a moment as bright as a star, then it would have been visible at least a few dozen lightyears away, a few dozen years later. So even years after the Empire had been defeated there could have been planets that are just witnessing the initial explosion, where in the silence of someone else's night, for one moment, Alderaan's sun seems to flash slightly brighter, before dimming again.

"misery porn" is another term that should be put on a shelf because people just don't know how to use it anymore. these days it's just used in a negative sense to refer to any piece of media that is intentionally grim, dark and explores trauma as a way to discredit it because it didn't align with your tastes, even if said piece of media was well executed and the writers knew what they were doing.

Ooooo if we’re talking Ashikai- what did you think of her Childe inspiration analysis? I’m not asking about how it may or may not apply to ur fic (though that sounds fun if your up for it!! I just love ur star foxes. Then again… not mutually exclusive ig) but what u thought of it!! I hardly get to talk to anyone about them and ooooough theyre such good videos and leave me reeling everytime.

her childe video was so fucking good holy shit. also i absolutely agree, her videos always leave me sitting there like 'holy fuck', even if sometimes i knew half the stuff she was bringing up, but the way she mixes it with the real-life research and stuff has me,,,,,,,, it's so good,,,

i think the only video that never like- surprised me? or told me something i didn't know or hadn't already like- figured out myself? was the latest one, the one about adepti and their visions. but that's bc i've uh. read xianxia before. so like. you read one xianxia, you know how it's going to go. when she said genshin was a xianxia i was like thank you, that's what i've been saying hahah,,, it was still such a good video, i really liked it;;

No cause they r so right, it’s a good twist, one that can be reasonably assumed, but the payoff shouldn’t be in the files, it should be in the next game, it’s a proper story beat, it shouldn’t be skipped over in the files, and it’s fnaf so obviously they know people are gonna be going through the files
