[twistedoverbloat]

Hey since Grim scratched Yuu's hand while he was under the blot would that end up with some of it in us? Like how if something infected scratches you, you get it too? Would that cause us to end up having some of the blot in and since we have no outlet build up?

Or am I reading into this too much? I feel like Matpat with all of the theories some times I think of...

I think nowadays the temptation of Wellcheers's fishing boat is much more ideal than the work I have to do now. Sure, the work is important, and someone gets it done, but... maybe Griffin knows something I don't... - Eva

(everything else is under a cut so i don't obliterate the dashboard with my answers LOL)

❖: What is the attitude and appearance that your muse presents in public? How does this differ from the attitude they have in private, when they are alone?

Eva tends to present himself as imposing and unmovable, someone who fits the role of "leader" to a T. If he's strict enough, people will listen and take him seriously, minimizing potential catastrophe. When he's alone, he tends to be much more relaxed, taking things slowly to do what he likes. He's still quite orderly both in and out of public, but less strict and sharp when around friends.

Leesihan tends to try to watch over everyone in public, making sure they're okay and not trying to get themselves killed. She's overwhelmingly doting, almost taking responsibility for the welfare of her friends. When she's alone she's more carefree, doing things the way she wants, painting her nails, whatever. Not my business.

Julian's weird due to how much he goes through phases. Generally, though, he tries to seem as chill as possible in public, doing dumb things for laughs and cracking jokes at the drop of a hat. Sure, he's aware of his new responsibilities and takes his work seriously, but has fun while he's at it. When he's alone he tends to be a lot more focused and quiet now that he doesn't have a crowd to please. Still hums and whistles, but less annoying about it.

Narae somehow manages to be a dick in and out of public eye.

✿: Which one act in your muse’s past are they most ashamed of? Which one act in their past are they most proud of?

Julian: OOH boy. I'm very proud of making my way up to where I am. 0u< If you'd seen me on my first days you'd never have believed I'd be Info Team's fearless captain!I'm also real proud of taking down the Red Mist with only my pal Buggy at my side, only slightly scathed! Uh. As for that first one... pass...?

Don't tell the rest of the guys, but...anything I've done (or, what I'm thinking, have neglected to have done) in past time loops stays in past time loops.

Eva: Not really proud of my lack of management in the first few days of the Control Team resulting in a death. Proud of the shrimp scampi I made yesterday evening.

Narae: Hey there. I don't really care to make an intro post yet so I'll just butt in, don't mind me~ I'm proud of every abnormality I've managed to take down alone--that's right, alone. No matter how rough the going gets, I can manage. Everything I'm not proud of comes form my shortcomings and stumbles in the past that I've meticulously corrected to never repeat in the future. Remember, call me if you need me.

Eva: ....Please fuck off.

scenes i loved from Real Enough to Get Me Through by @marriedzukka <333 [ids in alt]

[yeoldenews]

Robert Moss was diagnosed with polio at the age of six, the year before he wrote this letter. He would spend the next nine years of his childhood in and out of hospitals.

He made a full recovery and was a decorated athlete in High School and College, as well as an Eagle Scout. After college, he became a junior high science teacher, while also coaching football, basketball and track.

During summer break from teaching in 1965, his childhood struggle with polio inspired him to spend the summer working at the Louisiana Lions Camp for Crippled Children. He went back the next summer and was hired as camp director.

Robert was the Executive Director of the Lions Camp for 41 years. Over his tenure he expanded the camp to include programs for children with pulmonary disorders, muscular dystrophy, diabetes and autism.

He assisted in programs to set up similar camps in Puerto Rico and Australia, as well as a camp for children with terminal illnesses in Texas.

The Lions Camp still operates and is 100% free of charge for all attendees.

Wes ruins everything

Wes had finally done it, he had finally realized why nobody ever belived him about Fenton and Phantom! It made so much sense now, he had been looking for an answer for years, thinking he was going crazy because everybody refused to see the Obvious!

He was Cursed!

He literally had an Ancestoral Curse on his Bloodline that made it so that all those born with the gift of Prophecy would be ignored! A Gift of Prophecy that he apparently had.

It was Cassandra's Curse, the one from Greek Myths. Apparently she was his Great×1000 Grandmother and passed down the Gift (and Curse) of Prophecy to him. And he knew how to break it!

All he needed to do was gather the right resources, chant the correct incantations, make sure not to accidentally summon a Demon in the process, and he could just foist the Curse onto some other poor schmuck. Sure it would suck for them, and he would loose his Gift of Prophecy, but Wes had been ignored for Years at this point, he needed validation!

So he did the Ritual, and he didn't mess it up, and he managed to get rid of the Curse.

Now all he had to do was convince everybody that he was right for the first time in his life! This was going to be great!

...

Cass didn't know what was going on.

A while ago, she had started getting these...gut feelings that she couldn't explain.

She would look over the details of a Case her Family was working on, and see a patern that the others were seemingly ignoring. Like when she realized that The Penguin was about to raid the Docks on the East Side, but the others were convinced it was going to be on the West.

But when she had tried to tell them, they had brushed her off. "We've already concluded that he will begin the Raid on the West side, no need to go to the East."

She had gone anyways, and low and behold she had been right. But nobody even acknowledged that she had been right at all, they had just wondered how they had missed the signs, not even questioning how she had known.

It wasn't limited to Cases either. Even small things, like telling her brother's where the TV remote was were brushed off, and hours later they would still be looking, never even having checked where she told them.

It seemed that no matter what, nobody cared about her point of view anymore. They kept brushing her off, telling her she was wrong, actively ignoring her ideas.

And it was getting worse. They were starting to ignore her more and more, forgetting she was in the room, not calling her down for Dinner, even forgetting to check in on her during Patrol.

She knew that there must be something going on, Magical or otherwise, but when she tried bringing it up with her Dad or JLD, they would also Brush her off.

Her Family was forgetting her. And they didn't even realize it.

...

Danny was not okay at the moment.

When he had gone to school a few weeks ago and noticed everybody staring at him, he didn't give it much thought. Maybe Dash or Paulina had spread another Rumor about him again, not too out of the ordinary.

When his name had been called over the Intercom, he hadn't thought much of that either. His grades were falling even more than usual, so he assumed his Guidance Counselor wanted to have another talk with him.

When he walked into the Principals Office to see both of his Parents and some GIW Agents, that's when he realized something big must have happened.

He didn't have much of a chance to react when the Shields went up, but he did react when the first Ecto-Blast scorched the wall behind him. His Parents began to scream at him as they fired their Blasters, something about replacing somebody? He didn't know, he was pretty preoccupied at the moment.

It took more effort than he cared to admit to escape the Room, but a stray shot to the hidden Shield Projector under the Principals Desk proved to be his saving grace. Unfortunately the moment he escaped the Office, he was met with a veritable Army of GIW Agents, all armed to the Teeth with Weapons he had never even seen before.

He managed to get away for a moment, hiding in the Bathroom as the Agents chasing him passed it by. That's when he met Wes.

He obviously hadn't been expecting him, but the moment he saw him Wes put on a smug look. "Oh hi Fenton, trying to get away from the other students?"

Danny had replied with confusion, "What the hell are you talking about?!"

"I finally managed to convince everybody about you, now everyone knows that you're Phantom! I'll bet you're hiding from all of the other Students hounding you for questions right?"

"...it was you?"

"Yeah, so? I finally get to be right!"

"...You absolute MORON-"

That was the last Danny got to say to Wes before an Ecto-Blast launched him through a Wall, seeing his face morph into a look of Shock just before the dust cloud covered it up.

Since that day, Danny had been on the Run. Nowhere was safe anymore now that the GIW knew both his Human and Ghost's faces, but he had to keep running. He crossed state Lines already, and was on his way to the next Ecto-Rich City he could sense, somewhere in New Jersey.

He cursed his Fenton Luck every day. Why had everybody believed Wes this time?! Nobody had ever belived him before, nobody even seemed to acknowledge his existence after a while! What had changed?

Danny just wanted to rest already.

...

Cass had taken to Patrolling alone recently. She had taken to doing a lot of things alone, actually.

After the first month, it seemed that nobody could remember that she was in the room with them, even if she was within their eyeline, she just faded into the background. By the 2 Month Mark they had stopped talking to her entirely, although occasionally she would get a Text or two from her dad. By the 3 month Mark she was completely invisible, and By the 5th she had been forced to get used to it.

She didn't know what was going on, was it a Meta Ability? Magic? Alien Tech? She had no idea.

She had begun to cook for herself after the first time Alfred forgot to set her Plate at the Table. The same with Washing her own Clothes, Cleaning her Room, and Paying her Phone Bills. At the very least the Automated Allowance Payments to her Account had kept up, or she wouldn't have been able to go to her favorite Cafe anymore.

It was bittersweet for her. She used to go to that Cafe every week with Alfred, but he didn't even come on his own anymore. Had he only come for her? Did she really mean that much to them? It hurt, she finally had a family that cared for her and suddenly she didn't exist to them.

She sat alone at a Table, ignored by everyone in the Cafe as usual, when a new face walked in. He looked about her age, a little roughed up, walking with a sort of cautious gaint, as if he was scared of something. His Body Language seemed to agree with her assessment, as his body practically screamed "Worry" in its movements.

Cass stopped watching at that point. Just another Gotham Teen, probably worried over something like getting not having enough money or getting mugged on the way home. It was a Common sight in Gotham.

She attention was pricked again for a moment when she heard a voice speak up. "Uh, can I sit here?"

She ignored it, he wasn't talking to her.

"Um, excuse me? Miss? Could I sit here?" He repeated.

She ignored him again, he wasn't talking to her. Nobody talked to her.

"Hello? Do you have Earbuds in?" He said, and he waved his hand in front of her face.

Her face. He waved his hand. In front of Her Face.

He was talking to her.

She looked up at him sharply, seeming to startle him for a moment before he asked, "So, is that a no?"

"You can see me?" She asked.

He looked a bit bewildered, but replied "Uh, yeah? Why would I not? Are you...a Ghost?". That last part sounded a bit suspicious.

"No. Not a Ghost. But nobody sees me. Ever. Nobody remembers me." She replied. She had never spoken this much to anybody outside of her Family, but in the past few weeks she had been starved for interaction.

He seemed slightly interested, and sat down at her table. He looked her in the eyes, and said "Do you...talk about it?"

She smiled. He could see her.

❖ and ✿ for anyone lawl

❖: What is the attitude and appearance that your muse presents in public? How does this differ from the attitude they have in private, when they are alone?

Griffin is silly in and out of public. She does tend to be more composed alone, though, due to once again there not being any crowd to perform to. She's quite crafty and creative on her own time.

Bong-Bong (the shy one, not the funny one) tends to be much less shy and scared to do anything when alone. She does still carry a fear of being watched (haha, oops) but when she lets go, we can see a bit more of her likes and personality shine through.

✿: Which one act in your muse’s past are they most ashamed of? Which one act in their past are they most proud of?

Griffin is proud every time she figures something out herself. She's very capable and quite the bright thinker, but she seems to totally underestimate herself and even surprise herself when it comes through. She tends to dwell a lot one the times when her goofing off got her friends in trouble, or when she just couldn't read the room.

A lot of Julian's regrets stem from the work the Information team is responsible for, submitting reports knowing they'll be picked apart and redacted past recognition. The things that weigh heaviest on him is having to leave his friends behind, knowing a reset is imminent. Surely this will have no effect on how I manage my facility!

[robotbirdhead]

We get, rightfully imo, pretty sad and somber and naval-gazey about Discworld and Sir Terry on the 25th of May but I need everyone who might be discovering this series through this annual outpouring of love and sadness to know that these books are mostly just really fucking funny. Like, they're heart-wrenching and poignant but really they can only pull that off because they're also the funniest books ever written. There's a line near the end of Hogfather that, when I read it, made me feel more deeply connected to, like, the concept of humanity then I ever have before, but the book was only able to deliver that because the rest of it is about what if Santa Claus got kidnapped and a Big Skeleton had to take over his job? It's a patently ridiculous series but that is absolutely also where it's power comes from.

[csamhp]

Polaris wanted me to post this.

They said you would all find it funny??
