"In my defence, I was busy being rather taken aback. What did you expect me to say after you started rambling about immortality curses from Heaven?"

"Probably something about being an angel instead of being cursed."

Aziraphale winces. After a second, Crowley winces, too.

"That… came out wrong," he says guiltily. "That was meant to be. Y'know. A joke."

And finally, at long last, the final chapter is up!

Duel Links - Yuri & Yuya ASMR (english translation)

this title still feels like clickbait. it's not, I swear

Translated this one real quick because boy is it a treat. (Did less proofreading than I've done on some of my other translations though, so some minor mistakes might've still slipped through 😂)

Yuri: You. Do you have a minute? Woah there, don't run away now, will you? There's something I'd like to ask you. You know about the World Championship 2023, right? - Playing dumb won't help you. I heard you know something important about the qualifying rounds. - You're not going to say anything? If you're not gonna cooperate, maybe I should just card you.

Yuya: Huh...? That's weird, we were supposed to meet up around here...

Yuri: This voice...

Yuya: Found you! Huh? (runs over) Are you okay? Yuri, what are you doing here?

Yuri: (sigh) Got discovered by an annoying guy, huh. It's nothing. I was just playing around a bit, wasn't I?

Yuya: "Play"? You...!

Yuri: (sigh) Whatever. I'll be back. I have a feeling we'll meet again somewhere. - You're in the way. Move aside, will you?

Yuya: O-oi...! Seriously... Duels aren't something to hurt people with! You're supposed to make everyone smile with them! - You're not hurt, are you? Are you okay? If you are, I'm glad... Geez, please don't make me worry so much. Anyways, you haven't forgotten about our promise, right? Exactly! Starting on the 30th, from 20:00! Heh, it's okay, you don't need to get so nervous. If you get too anxious about the matters at hand, you won't be able to do anything. If you want to win, then gather up your courage, and let's step forward together! - Ladies and gentlemen! Finally, the entertainment duels are about to begin!

Hiya! I hope you're doing well today! I love your characters and how you've structered their bios! Since Chuusday is listed first, is she technically your official WOL or is it someone else? Do you canonically have a WOL in the first place?

Also, I find it SO sweet that you and one of your partners both play FFXIV and have characters paired together ;w; Did you meet ingame or long before either of you started playing? Either way I wish you both the best!!! <3 - gardenofballads 🌻

Awaaaah! Im doing pretty ok!!! Taking time to answer this as a wind down from Emerald Weapon Ex Brain Soupage. And I’m so glad! ;W; I think I butchered one of those “Get To Know An OC” thingies- uhh… oh [this one] actually! I chopped a lot out and I think added a couple different thingums instead because there was so much to that that it felt overwhelming to try to look at let alone fill out LOL but it was a really good jumping off point uvu;

And!!! Hilariously Chuu was my First XIV Character, so she’s dear to my heart for being the first one- but she very quickly made it known being the WOL even as an AU was something of a Joke (Her character showed great reluctance and even frustration at having to do So Much World Saving, maybe a side-effect of me rushing through MSQ to catch up with my other spouse [Who plays Talia, though they’ve got less time for XIV these days ;0;] and the rest of my friends who were all EndGame already at the time in Shadowbringers fhdjfjsjfs.) So I made…… many alts. Throwing spaghetti at the wall but I have SEVERE side-character/NPC brain and kept making “supporting cast” types =w=; it actually took me like. 3? Alts before making an ACTUAL WoL with my husband (Ishi’li and Kizuna) (as of Right Meow, they’re in post ARR, but we’ve been working on Keathan and Tuesday together because Keathan was… Keathan’s first character in xiv XD so we’ve been jaunting through the story together and experiencing every inch of it so we can pick and choose what The Boys™ get up to when we wanna focus on them x3)

🥰 I knew both speece during at least high school- but I actually knew Keathan as early as Elementary school hehe 😌 tho the speece didn’t proper marry until… i’unno, 2017? (For frustrating legal reasons, I’m not legally married, but. As it goes. Someday we’ll have money to visit the one state that has legal poly marriages. Also I struggle to remember our wedding year 🫢)

Since managing to make a Co-WoL with my husband I’ve managed to make one other Alt meant to be a Solo-WoL (Mochiie) but I have to really wrinkle my brain to sink time into playing him, since I’m trying to take screenshots throughout the story at what I find to be inspiring beats xD And even still he has an alt-universe where he’s just a side-character for the ‘Main Timeline’ (where there’s a bunch of spaghetti and like 8+ confirmed WoL’s and the Msq entourage looks HILARIOUS in canon, someday I’ll get all the data together and take pictures, but I think it’ll cook what’s left of my brain x’3) [it’s less concrete than anything I’ve posted about before or I’d try to explain it ;v;’ it’s just interesting mostly to see how the story gets stretched to fit around a larger community of heroes than a solo guy shouldering the whole burden lmfao.]

🌸🌸🌸…. I also hope you’re having a lovely week @gardenofballads !!!! I am tossing flower petals into the air around you !!! Thank you for the ask and well wishes n kind words 🥺💖 🌸🌸🌸

Fun gmod tutorial. There are a few hl2 models that do this when put on D0G (specifically the antlion + strider) but I've found the most intense come from using non-originally source models.

sometimes you just have to pretend it's 2013. tbh

Where can I read your solo au?

it’s “duo in tempo rubato (no more solos)” on ao3! my username there is Reliquary

it’s only one chapter rn but the plan is to work on updating it as a lighter palate cleanser once a certain future chapter of db (maybe chapter 11 or 12…?) goes up haha

[b3g-bl3ed-cry]

Hiii whatcha up to got anything new going on :)

Currently just window shopping! I should get home soon, someone’s been overly sentimental lately…

[larryrickard]

i had a dream that i made little cards that say "THEY!" on them that i handed out to people at work who got my pronouns wrong, immediately after they got it wrong. and in smaller text (or on the back) it said "i don't want an apology, i want you to do better" or "don't say you're sorry, DO BETTER" and ..... i kind of want to do it. maybe i'll get some moo cards made lmao

various scenarios included:

me slamming it down on a desk in front of them.

instead i had stickers, would slowly peel one off while they watched, and stick it on it on them.

handing out a quarter sheet piece of paper based on the 'i caught being good' tags we'd get in kindergarten which said 'i got caught misgendering hallie/my coworker'. it would have their name and date on it and a giant 🙁 face. i had them as a pad of paper and would hold up a finger to say 'wait a second', dramatically pull it out of my back pocket, take my pen out of another pocket, slowly fill it out in front of them, and hand it to them while staring them in the eyes.

getting a whiteboard for the outer side of my cubicle wall that said '[days] since i was misgendred' (with a bonus by saying 'last offender: [name]'

i also dreamt that i got into trouble for it because i was making people feel bad and was 'creating a hostile work environment'. i was just like.... okay and how do you think i feel? and my boss shut up real fuckin quick. dunno if that would be the case irl but if that does happen i can only dream.

[capricores]

Our project manager has this system that’s just basically employee of the month but every week. So we have this big program wide call every week where everyone gives their updates to the whole team and then at the end of it she announces Winner of the Week (WOW) and then like a month into the project she started doing Winner of Added Help (WOAH) as well. And I kinda interpret WOAH as being the runner up for the employee of the week thing but idk it’s never been introduced as such. Anyway this week I got the WOAH but my buddy Roopesh got the WOW so I was like omg congrats Roopesh you’re amazing i’m glad people recognize all the hard work you do. And I mean it very sincerely but as soon as I sent him that message I was like well he’s just gonna say the same shit about for getting second place so it’s like I was fishing for it but I genuinely from the bottom of my heart was like no i’m happy for my bro

Okay the amount of people I see on the internet who don't know the number of openings the typical afab body has is concerning me. So I'm gonna ask tumblr:

No cheating, honest answers/guesses only!

Vocabulary

AFAB: Assigned Female at Birth. The body and reproductive organs usually associated with women

AMAB: Assigned Male at Birth. The body and reproductive organs usually associated with men

Idk, working on this sidlink fic again is making me really happy. Primarily because i forgot how insanely funny the concept of an abo fic where one of the people involved knows absolutely nothing about abo while Very much being someone subject to that ruleset is.

but also because i haven't written for them since totk was announced and I forgot how much I love them.
