#most likely plottwists

Since I saw how many voted on my last poll about the "Who of the SH survive a Horror movie?" I decided to do something special.

A little text adventure game involving a poll and the Straw Hats.

The first gonna be murder mystery! It will have quite few polls. Depends how the polls look like.

So let's begin!

The Straw Hats are in a mansion, they escaped a stormy night and decided to stay in it until the next morning. The Storm didn't look like it would stop for the Night. What they don't know there is also a killer with them.

They explored the mansion, finding noone. The Mansion looked empty. Looking for rooms they could sleep in. Finding some they had to choose a room. Single rooms. But they decided to stay at least as duos in a room for safety reasons.

Nami stays with Robin and Chopper. Usopp with Zoro. Sanji with Luffy and Franky with Brooke. And Jimbei decided to stay a bit longer awake to look out, until he fell asleep too.

They went to bed.

What they didn't know the Killer had already choosen the first victim.

Who gonna die first?

Who die and survive? Don't forget it's your decision.

Talking with a friend about the Diddle Paper trading scene I was a part of as kid because I came across a random TikTok that memed that whole thing understandably and now looking back at things my path of study sure feels weird because

As child I was part of the local trading scene and knew the "economic worth" of these papers by heart including what colors were currently favored and which type of scented paper was worth the most

Later on I'd choose to do my final mandatory school year in a place where I'd pick "Services (retail and office as primary subject)" as branch

Following that I ended up choosing to spend 3 years in commercial school

And now I have this weird interest in factions like the IPC because the moment a game brings up capitalism I have a high chance to go 🤲 (and be it my past interest in TWST because when Octavinelle came up I was invested 🧍)

↬ two paths 一 ⦁ nagi.s, reo.m

▶︎ sooooooooooooo... this is some rotting dabble i abandoned, and since Im kind of desperate for any glimpse of motivation, i finished it. and surprise, surprise! its a reo and nagi fic lmaolmao.

▶︎ summary: reo have had a crush on you for a good long two years, and when it's the time to word his love to you, but a obstruct of your part says otherwise. ▶︎ context: nagi is your childhood friend, jealousy, idk if this counts as a love triangle? it's more like your a brick head, some angst (ofc) kind of a plottwist !!gn reader!!

"i like you, I've liked you ever since you stepped into my world, i like everything about you, your smile, your eyes, your gentle hands, your laugh, and most of all your soul that kept me hostage. and i-"

the hang up sound cut him off.

silence fell upon the other side of the phone, only the stillness of the disconnected tone nudging him back to reality. his hold on the phone was a robust one, so stout to the point of a crack to echo. the compound of bitterness, remorse, frustration, all were hefty on the little pinning heart of his.

and with that, you rejected reo, without even saying a word.

and the next days were nothing but a grievous duration, to him the most. as much as reo didn't want to see you for a while, there was no escaping you when you were in the same school, classroom, 一hell, even club. you were in every corner and every ditch, and he'll be a dead lier if he said that your appearance alone wouldn't tiptoe on his heartstrings. reo can stay still ever so firmly and yet you'd still be able to prod him out of his ground as convenient.

reo wanted to be mad at you, to hate you even, but he couldn't, he sincerely couldn't. even when the strain was tense, unbearable, but somehow it also felt pitifully suffocated, graciously. it was you after all, where he felt like a fragile creature under your spell, gosh一 you had reo warped around your finger with cement.

nevertheless, what drove him to the edge was how you operated it. while reo handled it by immersing himself in two blankets and eat ice cream to pacified him to crying himself to sleep. however, you on the other hand was having the time of your life. greeting him good morning to saying goodbyes, even asking him how his day went, did his confession meant that little to you?

reo wondered if you bat an eye, you just denied him after all, but some acknowledgment would've been great. or at least have a talk about it. but instead you acted like it never even happened. the idea of you skipping over his feelings made him sick to his core, it sounded so ill-suited, you above all if not the most considerate, thoughtful person he'd ever met. that's how reo fell for you in the first place.

he wasn't gonna apologies for being selfish, he wanted you to himself. reo kept all his feelings for you bottled up for a good old two years, and he just cannot bare with the fear of someone else stealing you anymore 一something that kept him on trails of restless nights一

maybe that's what herd him away from you, the decedent between the two grew by each day. yet reo loved you too much to live with the consequences of his actions, he can't even look at you without screaming 'why don't you care as much as i do', your sudden unfamiliarity stings him slowly and most of all painfully.

for you to blow him away like a dust that burdens your clothes felt it was caused by a clone, or did he just never knew you like he thought he did?

it ached to see you asking him if he's okay, if you did something wrong to drive him away. and goddamn it hurts seeing you like this, he would rather bang his head to the wall repeatedly than see that anguished expression ever again, and worst of all, reo was the reason for it.

you were heavy on his mind 一as if you weren't already一 the recollection of you standing with your sweaty palms rubbing against each other, a bad habit you do when you get uneasy, he really fucked up to the point where you have became a nervous wreck in his presence. your utter was light, questioning if he even wanted to be your 'friend' anymore.

you weren't the one to blame, reo was the one who stopped talking to you, stopped sitting with you for lunch, he even withdrew the club you two shared 一he didn't even have a liking for it, just joined because you were there一 all that and you still tugged on the last tie of faith reo would walk back into your life with open arms.

but reo didn't want to be your 'friend', not anymore. he wanted to be the one to protect you, to understand you, he wanted to be your man, your other half more anything, for him to be your everything just like you are his. you can't just make heaven a living place on earth then walk away when he was on knees for you.

he left you at halt, saying that he needed some time. you never knew time for what because he walked away before letting you word anything out. so now, his hands buried deep in his pockets, he felt heavy, mind and heart on a race track. he felt awful, the image of you standing in confusion, lost on what to do will hunt him to his grave. he tried running his fingers throughout his violet lockes, he was petty, selfish, and reo knew he could've worded it better instead of this.

from the corner of his eye, he could spot a bunch of flowers fluttering under the rush of air, hit by the sunlight to outshine any other plants besides. he could've think of how beautiful they looked, but no, the first thing that popped out his mind was the image of how bliss you'll be seeing them flourish just the way you liked it.

reo contemplating his actions, the pure, straightforward out of his heart gates confession and how far it had driven him. how beyond it had tossed what you two had. something blended with bittersweetness squeezed within his chest, envisioning of your smile made it a challenge to breathe.

so he keeps on strolling, trying to straighten himself until a familiar tall white headed form comes to his view. ranking ahead of a vending machine, nagi was too busy searching for what it appears to be a coin to even notice reo.

nagi was your friend, the one who watched the two of you downfall in silence. he didn't say a thing about it, didn't get involved and much rather concentrate on his phone-games. but there was something else, nagi have been your friend for what reo have been told since childhood. it was something anyone can figure out in the first glance, nagi doesn't leave your side for what it seems like eternally, he remained as your sidekick for decades. he witnessed all your phases, your growth. and he wasn't planning on departure his spot. it was a rare sight to see nagi not glued to your side, did the sky spare him? did his desperation reaches the empyrean?

"hey," reo announced his presence, nagi's bored eyes soaring over him. so the purple head flipped a coin to his direction, nagi tamed it halfway, staring at the single coin then back at his friend. "need another one." he uttered flatly as ever, so reo push out a sigh as he tossed him another one. the snowy head mummers a low thanks.

"listen, i need to tell you something." reo enunciates after a moment of hesitation, caressing the back of his neck as his lilac hues kept on swirling around. his friend just humming in acknowledgment, supporting his chin with his hand while still examining over the endless optionals of drinks.

"it's about yn."

nagi rattled momentarily, your name was like a cold water on his senses.

well, that was easy. reo thought. "i did something a few weeks ago, and i think i fucked up everything." he says, undertone. as if he was admitting an unforgivable crime.

"what did you do?" there was something off about nagi's tone, his grip on the coins was merciless. but his face still seemed boarded, nonchalantly but oddly firmed for some reason.

"i kind of admitted my feelings to them..."

nagi's daze expression shattered in an instant, not anything crazy, but his eyes grew obscure, casing over reo like a giant blacked cloud.

for nagi to carry that kind of aura was eccentric, that face would only arise every time an unnamed got a little too close to you. at that time, reo convinced himself that he was imagining that, because nagi out of all people stood his ground when it comes to dating, he'd always say the same thing 'dating sounds like a hassle'. and sometimes something wild like 'don't need someone else around, I already have yn.' reo wasn't a backstabber, he only confessed to you because he lived under the roof that his friend wasn't even able to handle anything intrigued with romance.

"i just, been liking them for ages. and i found the strength to finally say it to them, they-"

"hung up on you." the snowy head finished his line, which made reo eyes widen a bit.

he shifted awkwardly, "haha, did they tell you? how embarrassing.." he tried laughing it off, trying to avoid nagi's gaze for his sake.

"they didn't." nagi spoke quickly, voice strained than usual.

"oh? so how did you?.."

"because i did it. i was the one who hanged up."

there was a moment of lull, where not even the waves of wind could sooth over the tension. reo stood still, waiting for nagi to stick out his tongue playfully and shout 'gotcha!', praying for whoever might've fell upon to this to be a sick prank.

"you what?" he doesn't even realize he spoke before the words had already slipped.

nagi sigh tiredly, his fingers still at halt to press the numbers of his wanted drink, he didn't like focusing on two thing at the same time. "i thought you'd figure it out already. man, do i have to explain myself now? what a hassle." he let out softly.

"nagi, you-"

reo doesn't get get the chance to speak, to think, before nagi cut him off swiftly handling the conversation, like he knew this was coming. "listen, reo. i like being your friend, but i can't let you have yn." his words kept hurtling reo, it all poured down at his like a sucker punch.

"i don't understand."

"it's not that hard, i liked them first, i found them first. so they're basically mine."

oh, oh.

it all made sense now. reo felt like an idiot, why is he seeing this now? this is why you were clueless, because you didn't answer it in the first place. why, why was he so rushed to say it and not letting what he thought was you speak first.

every time when nagi would drink from the same bottle of yours, when he would twirl around a piece of your hair randomly, when his head would rest on your shoulder in every ride home, when he would shut down every time reo rambled about you, he just got it. why was he just connecting the puzzle? was his feelings for you so blinding that he couldn't see this?

reo wanted to say something, in fact things. but the lump in his throat clogs his attempts to protests. leaving his mouth agape.

and it was like nagi couldn't get a hold of concern about this, in fact he found waiting for his drinks to make it way down more interesting. yet he sensed a blazing breeze from his friend's direction, it was hard not to when they were on the same burden as an elephant. so the snowy head swiftly retorted, "plus, you already are the standard, right? I'm pretty sure you can find someone else, it'll be better if you found one quicker."

after that, nagi bent over to grab what was supposed to be his lemon tea alongside your favourite one. boredom eyes doubled-dyed at the cans, mostly at yours before blowing out a vague breath一did he just scoff?

"why you.."

"sorry, don't like sharing."

and with that, nagi walked away. head empty with the only maintenance thing was a picture of you as he handed you your favourite flavour with the money that wasn't even his. leaving reo dumbfounding at his back, he didn't get a say on this, like this wasn't even meant for him.

this wasn't a stage he can purchase to himself, not even to earn a role. he felt like a third-wheel in you and nagi's love tale.

it loathes him, brings him to edge even. but most of all, reo now wanted you more than anything.

[deeply-unserious-fellow]

HOLY FUCKING SHIT HAZBIN WAS SO FUCKING GOOD IM GOING INSANE AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKENFKCMKWJRKFNSMSMDMSMDN-

Okay. Okay deep breaths. Time for some cool and collected comentary. Okay.

Putting it under the cut so ppl can avoid spoilers :)

HUSK USED TO BE AN OVERLORD!?!?!?!?!? HELLO!?!?!?!?!? FUCKIN PLOTTWIST OF THE CENTURY WHAT THE FUCK!?!?!?!?!?

Huskerdust my beloved

SIR PENTIOUS MY BELOVED

Vox was great. I love him he's so fucking cool-

If Vox wasn't already a Tumblr sexyman he's definitely gonna be one now. He's so fucking Onceler coded it's insane.

Velvette was amazing too. It's so funny that she's British lmao I was not expecting that

Velvette is also very Anne Boelyne(like from SIX not from Real Life) coded it's wild. Her part in that song with Carmila was giving so much Don't Lose Your Head

I swear I'll stop comparing them to other characters I SWEAR

Okay but me and my brother are working on a Hazbin Hotel swap AU where we swap the main cast with the overlords and in that AU we swapped Husk and Vox. The Husk used to be an overlord reveal is gonna make that AU soooooo much easier lmao

ADAM IS REALLY GOOD I promised I would stop comparing to other characters but he was giving SO MUCH Hades from Disney's Hercules like its insane

I think we should let Alex Brightman sing rocj and roll more often that song was such a fucking BANGER

SPEAKING OF THE SONGS- oh my god I love the soundtrack so fucking much-

Stayed Gone was a lil less hype then I was expecting but thats okay cuz it was still a banger and I loved the visuals

That song battle between Carmilla and Velvette????? Oh my god??????

Carmilla and Vaggie's song was also amazing but I think I know why they didn't have Stephanie Beatriz sing her own song in Elena of Avalor y'know, girl cannot hold a character voice while singing

LOSER WAS SO FUCKING GOOD- I love Huskerdust so much. I love Keith David so much. Blake Roman is such a phenomenal Angel Dust.

SPEAKING OF all the voice actors are amazing. Blake Roman, Brightman as Pentious and Joel Perez were the ones I was the most worried abt but I loved all their preformances so much it was fucking fantastic

Valentino can go die in a fucking hole <3

The other Vees are cool and fun to watch but I hope Valentino fucking dies

Okay to be fair he's also fun to watch when he's not in the same room as Angel Dust but tHAT DOESNT SUPERSEID MY HATRED FUCK 👏 THAT 👏 GUY 👏👏👏👏

Speaking of the Vees tho I do love their dynamic

My favorite episode was probably Radio Killed the Video Star bcuz of mY BOYS PENTIOUS AND VOX!!!!!!!!

And the most painful episode to watch was- no surprise- Masquerade

That episode was a fucking rollercoaster Jesus fucking Christ...

Those scenes with Angel and Valentino where so fucking visceral... like. Who the fuck wrote that. Who are you. Are you okay. Do you need help-

Tho I'm not sure abt how they're handling the ah- more serious bits of Angel's character. It is WAYYYYYY to early to tell and I think Loser wasn't like. Trying to downplay the situation. But the writers better have been careful moving foreward bcuz I can def see a world where Angel's arc goes very wrong very fast-

Also while we're criticizing: wasn't a fan of the pacing. Especially in episode two. Like I can look past it, but the way they breeze past some plot points kinda bugged me

Otherwise it was sooooooo fucking good man oh my god

THE HUMOR WAS SO MUCH BETTER THAN PPL MAKE IT OUT TO BEEEEEE PPL NEED TO STOP SHITTING ON THE COMEDY IN THESE SHOWS MAN-

The gag where Niffty just fucking stopped thinking every time the camera turned on was so fucking good

Niffty in general was really fuckin funny

Alastor was a lot less prominent of a character then I thought he would be but tbh I think that's for the best. He's like Discord from My Little Pony, fun in small doses but if you don't set perameters for how often he appears and when he's willing to help it kinda breaks the show

Chaggie is adorable and I love them <3

I think this show does a really good job balancing the focus on the whole cast! These first 4 episodes seem to be pretty Charlie, Angel and kind of Vaggie heavy but everybody still gets their fair share of attention!

THE ANIMATIOJ OH MY GOD- IT WAS FUCKING PHENOMENAL IM LOSING MY M I N D

Im going feral IM GOING FERAL THIS EXCEEDED MY EXPECTATIONS AKFNVKKENFEKFNDN

I love comedy. I love musicals. I love drama. I love silly characters. I LOVE ANIMATION!!!!!!!

It's like the South Park movie but longer and better animated and IVE BEEN WAITING FOUR FUCKING YEARS-

Just. So excited overall. Can't wait to see where it goes. May make more posts abt my thoughts in tbe future.

masterlist

After a long night of hanging out, talking and just watching the movie, Soobin kindly dropped you off at your house as promised. With a head full of thoughts, it distracted you so much that you didn’t see where you were going; causing you to bump into a chest when you were near the entrance to the apartment building.

‘’ Sorry, ‘’ he grunted.

You were about to respond, but when your head snapped up as you were apologising profusely you swear your heart skipped a beat.

‘’ Jake? ‘’

He smiled and tried to go in for a hug. When he was pushed away hard on his chest and it caused him to stumble he scowled at you.

‘’ Why the fuck are you here? ‘’

‘’ Just…hung out with your dad. ‘’

The amused tone in his voice enraged you. In seconds your fists grabbed onto his collar and trying to intimidate him, tugged him towards you. 

‘’ Y/n? ‘’

Your burning eyes softened. Searching for the owner of yet another familiar voice, it soon landed on the entrance where you poor dad stood, looking confused and slightly embarrassed.

He gave you a stern look before marching over, pulling your hands away with great force and standing in between you and Jake so he could bow his head.

‘’ I’m so, so sorry. I- she’s not usually like this. ‘’

A crooked smile slowly crept on your bully’s face, only you could see the disingenuity behind it.

‘’ I know. We’re usually very close, we just had a small disagreement.‘’

‘’ Dad! He’s not my friend, he’s the one that has been bullying me. ‘’ you said exasperatedly, hoping to get through to your dad with those words.

‘’ This guy? ‘’ 

It was almost laughable how hard Jake was putting on a show, blinking his enlarged puppy eyes at your dad while his lips had an offended pout on it. What a shame he was so fucking good at it.

‘’ Yes, I know that he looks…’’ you grimaced, ‘’ Innocent and sweet but he’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing, he- he has kissed me before, without my consent. ‘’

You ignored the way he lit up at your compliment and he seemed to really struggle to not show it while your dad was still watching him, the only sign was the corner of his lips tugging upwards for a split second.

With your dad’s back turned to you there was no way for you to tell if your dad believed your words. But you could sense that there must’ve been some hint of acceptance there because Jake panicked, hurrying to speak before you or your dad did.

‘’ Sir, I’ve been really worried about y/n recently. With her mother in the hospital, she’s been kind of off…’’ you mouth hung open at the scene unfolding in front of you, he really wasn’t giving up.

‘’ She has been confusing me with her actual bully, Soobin who transfered not that long ago, along with this girl. ‘’ he gestured towards your arms, feigning a distraught look. ‘’ They did that to her. They left her in pain and with those scars. ‘’

He pretended to choke up, sighing and looking away from the audience.

‘’ And it breaks my heart that she doesn’t recognize m- ‘’

A cry broke from your lips as Jake was cut off mid sentence. A fist had swung and hit him right in the nose, and when he raised his head you could see blood trickling from it.

‘’ Dad! ‘’ you gasped, both impressed and pleasantly surprised.

Like the crybaby he was, he took a few steps back and then crouched down, pressing his hands to his dripping nose while glaring at you two. Your smile faded when your eyes met, he was even angrier than the last time you swore that was the angriest he’d ever looked. His hands were shaking and he was breathing heavily. You swallowed thickly. What would this mean for your dad? Would he try to get revenge on him too now?

‘’ Let’s go, y/n. ‘’

Your dad dragged you away by the arm, continuing to do so despite your protests and attempts to get out of his grasp. Knowing Jake well enough by now, you knew that if you comforted him and apologized, maybe even hugged and kissed him - then, he maybe wouldn’t hit back. But your dad didn’t even let you try this time, leaving you with a horrible sense of dread at the pit of your stomach as you ascended the stairs.

‘’ You should get in before he comes back. ‘’

You followed your dad into the apartment. Your two distinct moods were pretty apparent to one another. He looked worried and at the same time determined, not an ounce of regret present on his face; you on the other hand, kept your head down, a different kind of worry gnawed on the inside causing you to sit on the couch with a somewhat dead look in your eyes.

You sitting there and staring straight ahead for a very long time made your dad come over, a growing concern having taken ahold of him.

‘’ Hey, y/n? ‘’

You almost had to tear your eyes away from the wall you’d been staring at.

‘’ I’m sorry about that. I hope I didn’t cause any more troubles for you at school, ‘’ he hesitated, ‘’ Did I? ‘’

Robotically your head shook no, although your true feelings were quite different. Knowing he couldn’t do anything to help you anyway, there was no need for him to know anything, right? He’d just worry even more, and he had too many things on his plate as it was already.

‘’ Okay, good good. ‘’ he mumbled, appearing to be stuck in his own head too.

In an attempt to lighten the mood and get you both to think of something else, your dad reached out for the TV-remote and put on a show that faded into the background for you.

‘’ I need to go do homework. ‘’

Your dad nodded but couldn’t help but look after you as you left, a look full with somberness. Well inside the room, you walked over to the wall with the post-it notes. It looked as empty as it had been last time you wrote anything on it.

Now you had more info. Walking over to the desk, you scribbled some words down and hung it up next to the others. Then you moved that one and added seven more notes, all with their names, figuring it would be better to separate the things you knew by person.

Under Jay you added the note that read - dad is the mayor of Seoul. Sunghoon, Sunoo and Jungwon were the only ones except for Jay that had a note, and that irritated you. Sunoo’s read - gave information in the past, someone we can use? While Sunghoon and Jungwon’s said - has my number.

A heavy sigh sounded in the room as you scanned over the other names. Heeseung, nothing yet. Jake, nothing, Ni-ki…Ni-ki? You hurried to the table. With a new note in your hand, you almost ran to the wall eagerly and added the information you got from Sunoo regarding his childhood, adding the same under Sunoo’s. 

The fact was that you knew more about those two than the others. While staring at Sunoo’s name you hoped to yourself that it’d be as easy to get more information out of him as the first time. Maybe giving some clues about the other guys so Soobin wouldn’t have to work as hard.

Once you realised you couldn’t really add anything to the wall for now, you finally sat down at the desk to catch up on all the schoolwork you had neglected the past week. The phone that laid nearby was a powerful distraction to the math you tried very hard to get immersed in. You kept glancing at it, hands clenching the pen in your hand in anxiety at the possibility of them texting you since they could unfortunately do that now.

Almost as if you’d manifested it, the phone pinged after about the tenth time you peeked at it. It was impossible to miss, in the darkened room it lit up and the display shone at you brightly. 

A quick breath was released before you dared to pick it up. Both disappointment and relief filled you instead as the notification was just from an app. The radio silence from the guys felt a bit unnerving. Had he even told them? What were they talking about? Were they angry, would they text- no, you had to stop letting your mind wander. There was no point in trying to somehow read their minds through telepathy, it would only serve to increase the worry.

You looked at the neglected homework and reluctantly pushed it away once again, opting instead for a good night’s rest.

*******

The next day was Sunday. Normally you’d go to weekend-school to do some extra work but after last night’s run in with Jake, you decided to do what Soobin had told you to do, stay at home. 

8:17 am

You: Soobin? I thought about what you said and I won’t come to the academy today. Do you think you’ll be okay on your own?

Cousin: I’m glad you trusted me :) 

Cousin: I will be okay. Maybe I could try to get closer to them today?

You: Yeah. I kinda expect them to since I’m not there. They might ask about me, especially since,

You: Well…

He didn’t reply right away so you exited the messages and instead went to email. During last night, Soobin suggested that you could hire a private investigator. He emailed a suggested official website where you could easily get all kinds of people willing to help with anything, and he even offered to pay for you.

Soobin had said that his dad used it in the past, when trying to find proof of infedelity in his marriage so he’d seen first-hand how it worked. They never asked too many questions or reported anything since they had their own interests. The one he chose was a corrupted cop, working on the side for extra pocket-money. In the end, he proved to be a good choice as he did find proof and the divorce was finalized. 

You scrolled down the long list of names, thumb stopping and hovering over one in particular - Choi Hyuntae, Kim Doyun, Park Chaewoo, Kang Siwoo, Lee Seoyun, Yang Yena…

With swift fingers you clicked to message the person. The probability of you choosing her was low, but curiosity lead you astray for a moment.

8:20 am

You: Yena? Why are you on this website? / from, y/n

A whole minute passed before you got a response.

Unknown number: Y/n? Wtf are you doing here?

You: Answer me first

Unknown number: I recently passed the exam. I’m a cop now.

You: And you’re already corrupt…

Unknown number: Just trying to survive like everyone else. Your turn to answer.

You: I was looking for someone to help me with the situation at school.

You hesitated before giving the truth. But it wouldn’t be the biggest deal if she told Jungwon, you hadn’t even done anything yet and if they confronted you, you could always make them think you had no power to do anything anyway. Your scars hadn’t itched in a few hours, maybe if they did you’d be reminded of the pain and shy away from just jumping into action.

Unknown number: You mean my brother and his friends?

You: Yeah.

Unknown number: I could help you with that. I hate him and have always wanted to take him down. I guess this is fate, huh?

You: Why do you hate him though? Except for his personality ofc.

Unknown number: I was always second best, in school, in looks, in talents and personality etc. Jungwon has dreams of becoming a singer, I guess they found his dream a lot better than mine too. Besides, they only wanted sons anyway.

You: Sorry to hear that. I guess I could give you a chance, but I don’t trust you yet so don’t expect too much.

Unknown: I won’t

You: If you have a car, we can meetup tonight at 9pm in that abandoned parking lot by the beach, the one a bunch of highschoolers used to drive to when they ditched school.

You: Do you know it?

Unknown: I think so. See you there!

It was a bit reckless to decide to meet up just like that, without even consulting with Soobin. Him being away left you feeling bored and restless. You wanted very badly to make moves as well, but you couldn’t go to the academy. Finally he did eventually answer, redirecting your attention elsewhere.

8:22 am

Cousin: Well what???

You: I did something stupid. Jake was in my apartment while I was at your house. I told dad that he bullied me and he punched him.

Cousin: WHAT? Y/n!

You: Sorry…Can you deal with the mess tho?

Cousin: I can try :/ 

Cousin: I’ll keep in touch during the day. Why the fuck was he there though?

While reading the texts from Soobin, your smile faded away. You realized you had never asked your dad about it. Surely there was a reason right?

‘’ Dad? ‘’

‘’ In the kitchen, honey! ‘’

You ran there. 

‘’ Did Jake say why he was here yesterday? ‘’

The typing on the computer stopped for a few seconds. A low hum came from his throat as he rubbed his beard.

‘’ He did…I think- yeah, he said it was because you got injured during P.E and missed out on the last lesson. So he wanted to give you the notes. ‘’

‘’ Did you not question it? I haven’t told you I have any friends. ‘’

‘’ You know your school is on the way to my office. I look through the gates sometimes. ‘’ he shrugged.

‘’ Did you see me? ‘’

‘’ Many times. After school, I saw you once with some guy but I could only see the back. ‘’

‘’ Soobin. ‘’ you mumbled to yourself.

‘’ I got the wrong guy? ‘’

You hummed. ‘’ Seems so. 

‘’ Can you blame me? I saw that same guy be surrounded by a bunch of guys before that, could’ve all been twins to an old man like me. ‘’

His voice slowly dimmed in the background of the new stream of thoughts inside your head. Wait, was he talking about Soobin? With a bunch of guys…

‘’ If you ask me, everyone looks the sa- ‘’

‘’ Dad! Do you think at least one of the guys could’ve been Jake? ‘’ you interrupted.

He was caught off guard by your rapid question and took a bit to recollect his thoughts.

‘’ Possibly. ‘’

Shit. Why was Soobin with them? You felt a bitter taste take place in your mouth. The phone in the backpocket of your jeans was fished up as you contemplated texting him and asking him head on. But that seed of mistrust you always had inside, stopped you from doing so.

It had gotten watered again after having been kept away the more Soobin got you to trust him. Now it was growing, like it had never stopped. Was he two-timing you? You squeezed your hands around your phone, to the point your arm started shaking.

‘’ Honey, are you alright? ‘’

You snapped back and gasped when you realized what you were doing. With an awkward laugh you nodded and smiled, hurrying next to leave quickly so you could lock yourself up in your room.

Had Jake been in your room? You tried to take your mind off of Soobin by ravaging through your stuff to see if there was any trace of him. Then, a deeply unsettling thought popped into your head. In seconds you were at the drawers, pulling them out and throwing things around.

Oh no, that fucking pervert! You counted your underwear over and over. No matter how many times you did so, it didn’t add up - something was missing. Boiling with rage you took out your phone and without thinking, you called Sunghoon.

He picked up on the fifth dial, sounding brash even from the get-go.

‘’ Hey, sweetheart. ‘’

‘’ Sunghoon! Put Jake on the phone, now! ‘’ you yelled.

He didn’t question it or joke around more, probably hearing the anger radiating in your voice. A small laugh slipped out before muffled sounds followed and Jake finally was put on the phone.

‘’ Jake? ‘’

‘’ Yeah? ‘’

‘’ What the fuck did you do in my room? ‘’

The line went quiet, but you heard a few snickers in the background. If he had put it on speaker for everyone to hear, it would solely serve to make you even angrier. You weren’t even sure where all this newfound confidence and boldness came from, or if you’d regret it soon enough. Now all that mattered was your anger, and only that.

‘’ I- uh…what do you mean? ‘’

‘’ Don’t you dare try to play dumb! ‘’ you screamed.

Jake chuckled. ‘’ I don’t have to tell you anything after what you did to me. ‘’

‘’ You deserved so much worse than that. ‘’

He hummed.

‘’ Maybe. But thank you babe, I’ll have fun tonight. ‘’

You screamed in frustration again which doubled when you heard they hung up. You couldn't even retaliate or cuss them out. Falling back onto the soft cushion on the bed, you stared up at the ceiling, almost struggling to breathe properly.

The phone pinged.

8:21 am

Cousin: I’m here. What do you want me to do?

Glaring at the screen, you couldn’t help but feel angry at Soobin even though it wasn’t his fault this time either. For some reason you kept imagining that he was probably looking at his phone while the guys over his shoulder all laughed, calling you all sorts of names and coming up with more plans on how to torture you further.

But another part of you came to the conclusion that you’d have to confront him and talk about it like an adult, because it could still be a misunderstanding; you didn’t want to give more life to the seed of doubt and falsely lash out on him again.

You huffed, but replied for now as if you were completely oblivious about what your dad had told you. Likely, you’d talk to him about it later. But it would be even better if he could get you proof that it was all a misunderstanding without you telling him. Your reasoning for this was that if it was one and you had confronted him, it would probably break his heart that you got suspicious of him again. Problem was, you had no idea how he could give you proof without you mentioning any of that. 

After some pondering, laying on the bed and letting the silence make brainstorming happen, you settled on the first somewhat decent idea you came up with, voice notes. It could potentially mean you could hear in the others’ voices if they were acting or not.

But god, you hoped with every fiber in you that Soobin was still someone you could trust and that he was in no way affiliated with your abusers.

8:24 am

You: Could you voice record the whole thing?

Cousin: Sure!

And now you just had to wait.

*******

The time you spent in the car wasn’t very pleasant. Most of the day was spent finally being able to get into the zone long enough to finish your schoolwork. Soobin had texted about five minutes before you left to go meet Yena, saying that he had the recording and that he wanted to listen to it together. 

You told him you were meeting Jungwon’s sister, which quite expectedly made him freak out a little. He was probably on his way now and you hoped he wouldn’t jeopardize the meetup.

A white honda pulled into the parking lot a few minutes past 9pm. It went round in circles near the entrance a few times. Then the driver seemed to spot your car as it slowly started making its way over.

When it reversed into the empty square next to you, you craned your neck to see the person behind the wheel. You breathed out in relief upon seeing it was Yena like you had thought. For some reason, you always felt like they were watching you and half expected one of them to pull up, either instead of Yena or behind her.

Now that you knew that wasn’t the case, you unlocked the car and gestured for her to get into the front seat of your car. Getting out in the parking lot didn’t seem as safe or discreet, especially in case they did follow her here.

She got in and immediately reeked of pure business. No unnecessary politeness or small talk, just straight into it, ‘’ What do you want me to do? ‘’

Your eyes widened. ‘’ Not even a hi or how are you? ‘’

She just stared at you blankly and you had to look away, getting an awful sense of déjà-vu under her unsettling and very familiar gaze.

‘’ I’m still a cop working full-time, ‘’ she paused, looking a bit more relaxed. ‘’ Sorry, I just always seem to have my hands full. ‘’

‘’ Tough cases lately? ‘’

Yena nodded, looking quite gloomy all of a sudden. But you didn’t press further, agreeing it was best for the both of you to get right into it. You dug in your backpack and taking out a bulky camera, you handed it to her. She started turning it and inspecting it until you had managed to lay out all the equipment on the dashboard.

‘’ It’s not the best. Just an old camera my dad has used in the past, only one I could find. ‘’

She put the camera to her eye and started twisting the lens, playing around with the abilities of it. ‘’ It works just fine. You don’t need anything too expensive. ‘’

‘’ Okay, that’s good to hear. ‘’

‘’ So what do you need me to do? Follow that little asshole and his friends around and take pictures of them? ‘’

‘’ Yeah, pretty much. ‘’

‘’ That’s…kinda creepy, I like it. Anything else? ‘’ a small grin spread on her ruby lips.

‘’ Anything that seems relevant. Like their families- ‘’ you paused and licked your lips, watching her reaction closely, but her expression remained unchanged. ‘’ Things I can use against them. ‘’

‘’ You’re getting revenge. ‘’

‘’ Yeah. ‘’

She laughed loudly.

‘’ And you have no choice but to trust me or? ‘’

‘’ I don’t know. I could’ve picked someone else on that website. I guess a familiar face feels more comfortable. ‘’

‘’ I’m his sister though. If I were you I wouldn’t trust people that easily, even though I am telling the truth. ‘’

‘’ I don’t, and that has been a problem in the past. I need to be a bit more open to people. Let’s say you did tell him, ‘’ you imagined yourself in that scenario, thinking about what you’d truthfully most likely do. 

‘’ What can he do? I mean I can run away, move schools or…something. It’s not like I’ve done much anyway. Or I can pretend I’m in love with them and super regretful about what I tried to do. ‘’

She looked amused and you could see why. The anger from Jake escalating things and getting into your personal space like that had made you be a lot more impulsive. You felt like you didn’t have much time. As if there was some kind of timebomb to something, but you didn’t know what.

All you knew was that it wasn’t completely crazy to think and feel the way you did. They had started closing the circle around you. Meeting outside of school, getting your number, visiting your mom in the hospital, and then going to your apartment to take your things. What would they do next?

There was a feeling that if you didn’t make a move now, however hasty and reckless, you’d never get the chance to even try. You weren’t sure if that was weird paranoia making you try to predict the future or a good intuition knowing what storm was heading towards you.

‘’ They’re probably worse than you think, sweetheart. But okay, I’ll try my best and hopefully the hard work I put in and all the material I will give you, will make you trust me. ‘’

‘’ I don’t have to trust you. I have nothing to lose. ‘’

Yena raised her eyebrows.

‘’ Yes you do. ‘’

You bit your lips guilitly, knowing she was right. But the one who has nothing to lose, is the one who is more likely to win. Fake it till you make it.

‘’ When can you get me the first pictures? ‘’ you attempted to change the subject.

‘’ On Wednesday. Try not to die before then, I heard Jungwon talking about you with them today. ‘’

‘’ What? What did they say? ‘’

‘’ They all came over after the academy. I didn’t hear much except for your name and Jake, those were said a lot. ‘’ she shrugged. 

You hummed. ‘’ Okay, I’ll try not to. See you then, same time and same place? ‘’

‘’ Sure thing. ‘’

She left and you got your phone out to call Soobin. You had noticed a car parking a few spaces away from you, only too far away for the driver to be visible. Just as the phone was picked up, you could see movement in that other car.

‘’ Hello? ‘’

‘’ Are you here? ‘’

‘’ How did you know? ‘’ he gasped dramatically.

‘’ You weren’t very discreet,  ‘’ you sighed, but a small smile tugged at your lips.

‘’ Sit in my car so we can talk. ‘’

‘’ It’s kinda cooler like this though, on the phone. It’s like we’re secret agents. ‘’

‘’ Soobin! ‘’

‘’ Sorry, sorry! I’m coming. ‘’

You shook your head at the sight of him getting out of the car you thought he was in. He looked very funny while running over, hunched over and trying to look in all directions when running which caused him to almost stumble several times.

‘’ Hey. ‘’ 

‘’ Hi. Hurry. ‘’

You locked the door when he was in. The immediate silence after the car door closing made it echo felt a bit awkward, but he looked as happy as ever to see you. That’s when you remembered what your dad had said that same morning.

Soobin noticed the way a scowl slowly crept up on the friendly face you first wore when he got in. He felt a bit self-conscious, thinking that he did something wrong.

‘’ Are you…okay? ‘’

‘’ My dad told me something very interesting about you today. ‘’

He gulped, almost feeling like he wanted to press himself against the door so he could get away from your angry self.

‘’ He said that he saw you with my bullies. ‘’

Soobin went quiet.

‘’ Soobin? ‘’

His face grew pale as he struggled to speak. ‘’ I-I, no! It’s not what you think, y/n! ‘’

‘’ Then tell me. ‘’

He tried reaching out for your hands, expecting you to withdraw them and was surprised when you didn’t. You let him hold you if it helped alleviate some of his sudden anxiety so he could tell you the truth.

‘’ I…went to go talk to them to tell them to leave you alone. ‘’

‘’ What? ‘’

He looked very ashamed.

‘’ It was after the first day, when you showed me your scars. We barley knew each other then, but I- I shouldn’t have, I know. ‘’

You almost felt too stunned to speak. All the questions you wanted to ask didn’t want to come out smoothly and you weren’t even sure what to feel. Were you still angry or suspicious of him or - did you feel a bit grateful?

‘’ I did it quickly while waiting for you after school. Remember, you went to the bathroom? They walked right past me and I couldn’t stop myself. I guess they didn’t want you to hear, so I was practically dragged or pushed out to the front of the school. ‘’

‘’ What did they say? ‘’ you asked after he answered your first question.

‘’ Threatened me. Said they knew who my dad was and that Jay could get my dad fired. ‘’

‘’ Why didn’t you tell me this? ‘’ 

Your groan of frustration was so loud it made Soobin jump. He looked at you, his doe eyes begging for mercy almost as if you were a hunter and was about to take his life. Maybe there was some truth to that, you had the small urge to shake some sense into him and also quite literally choke him in anger.

The plan had quite literally fallen into pieces, the plan that was just made. Now you had to come up with a new one quickly.

‘’ They knew we’ve been friends since the fucking beginning, you sat there with me to come up with a plan and immediately agreed to what I said! ‘’

‘’ I thought I could somehow pull it off and still be useful even if they knew. I would just…find a way, ‘’ he trailed off.

His head had started to hang in shame now, too embarrassed and guilty to look at you. Without doing so, it was still pretty obvious how you were feeling on the inside. He’d likely feel the same if he were you which meant he was well aware that this wasn’t a good look for him at all.

‘’ If you don’t want to be friends anymore, I get it okay- I just, I want to help you. I can promise you that. ‘’

You scoffed.

‘’ It would’ve been a lot better if you were just honest from the beginning. I wouldn’t have cared about your mistake. ‘’ not even giving him a chance to respond, you continued, ‘’ But I guess I have no choice now. For all I know I have two backstabbers by my side, so who cares? ‘’

Soobin sensed the bitterness in your words. He hoped that despite whatever was going on would be solved soon and hoped even more that you hadn’t given up. It was stupid not to tell you, he admitted that. For some reason he was confident it would never get brought up; at the same time, he was happy it did right now and not later when the bullies could’ve used that lie to turn you against him.

‘’ I hope I can earn your trust back. ‘’

You didn’t say anything. His explanation made sense, no matter how angry you were, especially when Yeonjun’s words echoed inside your head. It seemed to be perfectly in character for him. So just before he stepped out of the car, looking very sad, you smiled at him.

His eyes grew twice in size, but he didn’t get to say anything because you gestured for him to get out, not that he’d have the right words anyway. He stood there dumbfounded, staring after your car even as you left.

‘’ What’s wrong? ‘’

His eyes hadn’t widened due to your smile, but something standing in the shadows.

‘’ Y/n…’’ 

‘’ What’s wrong? ‘’

Terror flashed across his face, and he choked out breathlessly,

‘’ He’s watching me. ‘’

HOLY- THIS HSR VERSION?!

FANSGRBDGVHKDFBJVSNLKACMODVSNFIBDJK LSVNK;ACM

I can't calm down!

Major Spoilers to Honkai: Star Rail Main Story of version 2.2 (about basically everything) under the cut

First of all GENSHIN COULD NEVER AND IT NEVER DID! None of the Genshin Archon Quests could ever compare to this.. Masterpiece!

Hoyoverse outdone themseves completely! This whole update was truly perfect!

(Because I saw the leaks) I was like, so Harmony MC wasn't needed in the Sunday fight? But weren't they mandatory? Why was it so easy?

Until the plot went farther and we had a real fight with Sunday! And my jaw dropped. I'm a big fan of this fight! But I expected it to be harder- I literally build my Ruan Mei with some random pieces in one day for it-

This was the most beautiful and emotional moment in this entire version! Also MC's response to 'Why does life chose to slumber'? BHJDwfabshkjnlaksvdjfbkhjsnlBKHAFSDBKJEFL

That moment and the whole quest made me really love this sibling duo! It was so sweet how Sunday was always concerned for Robin and was caring about her more than for himself. Also, Robin got shot at the neck-

I'll admit the moment when Dan Heng and Jing Yuan appeared in Ena's dream was so funny and random, but the entreance was indeed surprising and gorgeous! Honestly I couldn't stop smiling at Jing Yuan🥹

Mikhail's indentity was WTF honestly, the fates of the 3 Nameless were sad, mostly Tiernan. And Acheron's real name!

SHE'S MEI!

*inhale and exhale*

Sunday looked so good and sexy during his boss fight~🤣

I'm happy we got lots of Sunday this version and that Gallagher wasn't really as bad as I thought he would be!

Sunday in the confessional?!?!!?!? I'm dead

But I have so many questions at the end of it all, such as, what exactly happened to Firefly? And will Boothill and Black Swan still travel with us (The Astral Express) just like in the dream? Would everyone really get along in the negotations in the end?

And.. What will happen in the next update? Is story in Penacony really finished?

Our next destination will probably be

Regardless if it happened in a dream or not, they thought it was reality so it's still prob gonna be our next stop-

(Because this planet is mentioned every time, no matter which option you chose, and it wins 4 votes for Edo, and 1 abstained - if you decide to abstrain)

Btw, Harmony MC has such a beautiful icon!

AND THE WAY THIS WHOLE UPDATE ENDED? HELLOOOO?!?!!?

Why does March 7th have Question Marks?

So yeah-

This update had gorgeous illustrations and stories! I love Robin's song in Sunday's fight-

Me casually before facing Sunday's first boss-

The best part is, I was like something's wrong, it's not like on the leaks when the 1st battle with Sunday happened but I eventaully forgot about it and had a big schock at the end- A truly delicious plottwist!

I have lots of the ss's from this update...

[panicflower]

What I need:

I NEED a drag of a fic about reader joining the 141. Everyone liking her, but Ghost. Huge enemies to lovers plot. But him being a CUNT!!!!! Ignoring her for the most part, and sometimes being mean as her superior etc etc you guys get it. And then plottwist he was afraid of liking her, thats why he behaved that way. I WANT “WHO DID THIS TO YOU”. I WANT “THERES JUST 1 BED” ETC!!!!! 👹👹👹👹

(Yes spicy in the end, but after like chapter 7373828)

I’ll eat this up so hard omg but i cant fucking write!!!

If this was a book 💥💳💥💳💥💳💥💳

Warnings: Angst

Part 1 / Part 2

Walking down the street you sighed, you shoulders hurt from the bags full of groceries you had to carry. Your back also hurt pretty bad from cleaning the bathroom this morning. It was hard being alone. You got closer to your small house, which was located up at a little hill. Walking through the door kicking off your shoes you rushed to the kitchen. You planned to make some kimchi fried rice and lobster. You were cutting vegetables when you started to drift through your thoughts. How your life was before, you felt a warm in your chest thinking about this time of your life. How happy you were in his embrace. And..how you left him.

You stopped your movements and laid the knife down, you cut yourself. <Shit> you mumbled. You sat down on a chair. Who were you even trying to convince? This is trash! All of this! The island, the people, your job, this house! Everything! You wanted to scream. This wasn’t what you wanted. Your eyes went down to your cut finger, the red liquid coming out of your finger instantly reminded you of a certain someone..you closed your eyes, replaying this fatefull day in your head.

<Wait! Honey what do you mean?? Did I do something wrong? Or someone else? Do I need to kick someones ass??> You shook your head, looking down at your fingers. <Shanks listen. I..> you took a deep breath <I don’t feel the way I did some years ago you know? I never intended to be pirate. I went along with it because I loved you and I was young and..> your body didn’t get enough oxygen so you took another deep breath. <And I just don’t feel right being here. I always hold you guys back in everything you do!> You were scared to say ‘I don’t love you anymore.’ Or something like this you had to find a less hurtful reason for him. <Listen honey..we had this talk more than once now, everyone on board adores you! You are not holding us down. You’re- > <Shanks.> The room went silent. You looked up at him, you looked right in his eyes. <I don’t love you anymore, Shanks.> The look he gave you when you said those words, you will never forget it. You looked back down at your lap. <Listen I..I really don’t feel like sailing the sea all my life, but I know that’s what you desire. It would be better for us to go seperate ways.> It was silent again. You listened to the little noise that came from him sitting down next to you. You had closed your eyes, no tears should escape your eyes now. Not right now. Not in front of him. < So that’s how it ends, huh?> He mumbled. <You know, when I first saw you..I knew I was taking you with me. It was like a ‘love at first sight’ kind of thing.> you two sat in silence a bit longer before he spoke up again <Well if that’s what you desire..> he laid his hand on your shoulder <Do you wanna stay here? On this island or you want me to bring you somewhere specific?> You took a few deep breaths and opened your eyes again. This time you looked him right in the eyes, he looked so hurt and betrayed. Like a little puppy who’s mother just walked away and never came back. You knew he was so hurt he could scream, but he didn’t because he loved you, he still did. <I will stay here> you said quietly. You looked at the wall in front of you, a pretty old picture of you and him was also in your field of vision. <Can I ask for one last thing..Y/n> you nodded. <Can you give me one last kiss?> he asked quietly. You looked at him, it hurt you so much to leave him. But this life just wasn’t for you. You reach out to him and you two share probably the most passionate kiss ever. You put your hands on his checks and..you feel his tears falling. At this point you also start crying. Pulling back you look right into his eyes. One last time.

You opened your eyes again. Oh how much you regretted leaving him. Taers started escaping your eyes. The realisation hit you once more. He won’t come back for you, he probably got over you. You start crying like a teenage girl who got her heart broken. You put your hand on your belly. He never got to find out he was gonna be a father. He won’t know about the existence of his son, he won’t see him smile for the first time, his first words, his first steps and so much more. You cried even more. You were now all alone on this stupid island with this kid soon to be born. You felt like a terrible person for taking this away from him, you felt so alone.

Reposts are appreciated!&lt;3

Its fascinating how Laito has the second highest grades of all the Sakamakis, considering how he never touched a study book in his life😅It shows how naturally intelligent and intuitive he is , and imagine if he put like 10% effort into that, i believe he would outsmart Reiji and completely dominate him in most subjects.

I just started listening to the cd dramas and ive read how people praise him for being big brain and cunning and ye im starting to see why now

// Hate to break it to you Anon but I’m pretty sure that grade post was a misunderstanding or a joke because I remember Ayato being placed on the third place in terms of grades there and out of the triplets, I’m confident he’s the least prone to open a book for school. 😭😭

In terms of canon grades throughout the routes, I’m 100% sure Reiji is on top. Yui is bad at maths, physics, science, English, PE and chemistry but at least she tries and thanks to Reiji’s help, I guess she can get better grades than the other Sakamakis. The triplets and Subaru don’t care about tests and Shu sleeps during them despite knowing how to solve what’s there. xD

However, I do think Laito is smarter than Reiji and everyone in general. He knows everything and, not counting the Tokutens CDs since everyone is OOC there for plottwists or funny moments, he is the character with the least dumb moments. I can’t even remember any of them to begin with.

[yandere-daydreams]

watched i'm in love with the villainess as per your recommendation and i

a. didn't expect it to actually be this openly gay??? thank god

b. didn't expect to actually consider picking up manga (not having season 2 is cruel as is not being warned about it)

c. need to know your opinion on them comparing homosexuality with incest. i. uhm. almost chocked on my drink? when they put the two in the same sentence? "forbidden love"???

d. find tolerating your crush being into men but getting absolutely pissed at getting outdone by another woman terribly real. how is this show so good. with this silly of a premise.

anyway. thnx. i will be hunting down the rest of your list.

it's a good show!!! and very loudly gay!!! i was first introduced through it via an out of context clip of the scene where a few of the characters sit down with the mc and very openly talk about sexuality, so i wasn't exactly caught off-guard by the gayness of it all, but just how gay the main heroine was allowed to be and how much they're willing to go into it (especially the part where lene is like 'oh i see you love people regardless of gender :)' and ray gets to be like 'no wtf i would never make eye contact with a man'), and how accurate all the references to less-than-great dating sims and what it's like to have just,,, the biggest, gayest crush on the villain of the aforementioned dating sims were all a nice surprise. definitely one of my more recent faves, absolutely read me like a fucking book then said 'but you're valid ig' at the very end.

spoilers below the cut off!!! continue at your own risk!!!

as for the mid-season incest subplot, i didn't actually mind it? i felt like there was a pretty clear difference between the way people talked about ray being into girls and lene being into her brother, with the former garnering, at most, a few insensitive comments and the latter getting more of a general 'girl they can send you to jail for that' reaction. lene was pretty established as a character, so i kind of got the vibe that ray and claire were sympathizing with her and the situation she was put in moreso that the whole ""forbidden love"" thing, and the fact that they kept it more-or-less off-screen really helped. i'm never excited to find out a show i like has an incest plottwist, but i think i can give this specific one a pass in favor of having a good time.

--- The door slammed shut. You just didn't understand. As you walked down the hallway your thoughts were running wild. Tears streamed down your face. You didn't know out of anger or sadness. With shaky breath you recalled the situation that just took place infront of your very own eyes:

"I can understand your curiosity. But I think you should give up your pursuing and just accept it! It's way to dangerous! You live a peacefull live, don't you think it would be better if it stays that way?", says profesor Dumbledor, who sat on his table, drinking his tea. You shook your head and gave him a serious glare, "No I can't do that! It's just not fair! How can I live peacefull live when..", you bit your lip to hold back the tears, "when... I have to find out what happened! If there is a murderer on loose then he needs to face judgement! Who knows maybe he wants me dead too?!", you hissed, slamming your hand on the table.

Dumbledor took another sip of his tea as if your outburst of emotions didn't bother him at all. "And what are you going to do then? Won't you walk directly into his arms if you search for him? It really would be the best if you just remain calm and let the past be in the past! The world will just lose another wonderfull wizard. It would be a pity...", he ended his sentence with a warning glare towards you. You couldn't believe what you just heard. The anger was slowly boiling over inside you. "I thought you would be on my side! But I believe I made a mistake! You completly underestimated me. I'm not going to die that easily! If you would excuse me... I'm leaving now!", with that you stood up and left the classroom. ---

With a sigh you sat down on a bench in the garden and looked up into the sky. Many thoughts crossed your mind. One of them was your past, back when you were really young...

~ Past ~

It was a rainy day, you sat on a huge window in the attic of the Wool's orphanage and looked outside. As long as you can think, you always have been here. Everyday you sat here, on the huge window or in the small library. You didn't really like the other children but you neither hadn't any issues with them. At least they left you be. Everyday you asked yourself the same question. Where were your parents? Why are you here? Did they abandon you? Why?

The question was faster answered than you had expected. "You want to tell me something, right?", you said as you turned around just to look at the nervous eyes of the supervisor, mrs cole. "W-What?.. Y-Yes how did you know?", she asked with a unsure glim in her eyes as she looked at the floor. 'Is she scared of me?', you asked yourself. You smiled softly, "Mrs, you're standing there since 10 minutes, starring at me. Besides you're a really nervous. What's wrong?", you asked as you inspect her body language.  Mhh, it must be something terrible. She has the same body language as last week when so many horrible things happened.

"Oh.. y-yes.. I want to tell you the truth because I think you're old enough now. Can I sit next to you?", mrs cole asked as she was just about to jump into your arms. You nodded and she walked towards you, sat down next to you. "You always asked me where your parents are, do you remember? I'm sorry that I didn't want to answer this question. But you were just to young... Anyway.. do you want to know the truth about your parents?", she asked as she looked at you while playing with her hands. Clear nervous behavior. So it can only be the worst. You placed your hand on her's and gave a nod, "Please mrs cole, tell me everything that you know!", you said with expecting eyes. "You grew up here as a baby, your parents sadly died a few days after your birth. No one knows how or why it happened. A man brought you here, to the orphanage!...  I'm so sorry!", mrs cole told you, her eyes geting wet, suddenly hugging you. It wasn't a suprise, you already thought that might be the case.

It's really sad. Yet you didn't feel anything. No sadness, no anger, nothing. Maybe you already had accepted it? Instead mrs cole cried for you. So you hugged her too, "Mrs you're not the one to blame. Please don't cry. It's alright. Who was the man that brought me here?", you asked curiously, like always. She let go of you just to look at you in shock but answered quickly, "I forgot his name. But he is visiting tomorrow. He wrote me a letter, he asked e to tell you the truth. He wants to visit you tomorrow. You can ask him yourself for more details tomorrow". A bright smile formed on your lips. A visitor? Finally something new! It was always so boring here, you couldn't wait!

"But... aren't you sad at all? It's okay to cry.", added mrs cole. You shoke your head and looked at her. "Thank you for telling me the truth but I already expected something like this. I'm not sad. I'm happy to get a visitor tomorrow!", you smiled and walked past her.

~ Past End ~

The memory made you laugh a bit. This was the first time you met profesor Dumbledor. You were so lost in thought that you didn't notice how a familiar voice called your name, "Hey?! Are you even listening??"

Quickly sitting up and looking in the 3 faces infront of you. "She is day dreaming again. From which boy are you dreaming mhh?~", myrtle asked, sitting down next to you on the bench. "Are you sure she wasn't bitten by a wild animal?", hagrid knealed down infront of you and looked at you worried. "What?? No!! Right?? Say something!! My poor bestii!", sidney, your best friend started to shake you a bit and hugged you from behind. You really couldn't help yourself and started to laugh. How did you end up with such chaotic friends? But you still liked them all very much!

"I'm fine! I was just lost in thought... NOT over a boy myrtle!", you answered and started to laugh even more. You just heard how all of them sighed, starting to laugh with you. "You scared me! My poor heart!", sidney whined dramaticly and cuddled you. "Yes, yes I'm very sorry bestii~", you sighed and giggled.

You took two steps back and looked sceptical at the rose. It didn't have thorns, so someone wants for you to pick it up. You took your wand and whispered a few words. The rose lighted up in a green light. So it isn't cursed. Relieved you breathed out, picked the rose up. With that you turned around and walked after your friends.

"We should go to the hall now, dinner is waiting", hagrid said and helped you stand up. Sidney stepped next to you and toke your arm, holding on to it. "Don't you have to feed Doren first?", you remind hagrid. Doren is hagrids hidden baby-dragon who lives in forbidden forest. "No... I might have.. sneaked out on noon and feed him. So he will be okay until tonight!", hagrid smiled and scratched his neck. This made you all laugh. "At least you didn't forget it this time. Poor Doren~", sidney teased him a bit. Hagrid just sighed and rolled his eyes. You looked at myrtle, she seemed quiet. Knowing what she was thinking about you held your hand towards her, "Come myrtle, you can sit with us! Take my arm!~", you said with a understanding smile. After hesitating a bit myrtle stood up and took your other arm. Hagrid walked in the front and you three behind him. "On which table should we sit today?", you asked. "Not ravemclaw! I don't wanna hear their stupid comments!", myrtle said and looked at the ground. "Hufflepuff, they are all very understanding?", sidney smiled at us. "Because they have the best example!", grinned hagrid, who walked backwarts to look at us. "Well of course! I'm always the best example! Hehe~", sidney laughed. "Hufflepuff it is then!", you added and giggled.

Your conversation was still heard far away as the sun was going down. Suddenly a creepy feeling overcame you. You let go of the others and stayed still. You felt watched. But you didn't see anyone in that slowly dawning light. One step forward, you looked around the corner. Already having your wand ready to attack. Nothing. Nobody. Just dead silence. This silence told you to run. Instead you looked down, you had stepped on something.

A black rose!

"Hey riddle! Where have you been?-", a voice was heared which was cut off.

Even after your smart thinking you failed to notice the shadow hiding behind the wall, walking into the now shining moonlight. A smirk played on his lips. As he played around with his ring, he looked after you. "A black rose, beautiful and special like you~", he whispered bevore he also walked in the same direction.

~♤~♤~♤~♤~♤~♤~♤~♤~♤~♤~♤~♤~♤~♤~♤~

"Out", answered tom riddle and the voices disappeared as the door from the hall closed.

(I hope you enioyed! Chapter 1 will be coming soon~ )

Can I just quickly say that as a fan of New Who and someone who is slowly trying to catch up on classic who, that this season is not fully it?

This is not meant to be offensive but when you promote this as season 1, as a new show in a way or rather a new era, then bringing back a villain from classic Who, a show that is like genuinely hard to find for international viewers, is not the move for the final?

I mean this with no disrespect but promoting this in a way to new viewers that is meant to offer them an easy start into Doctor who but then turning around and making the big bad villain of the entire season, hell even the one that was hinted at before the season, a villain that as far as I know appeared for one arc/episode arc in Classic Who is not the way to introduce a new show.

I love it but it just feels like having a plottwist like this when you claim that you can watch it without prior knowledge is just false advertising.

It just feels weird to pull of a plottwist like that when the entire premises since the specials has basically been "The Doctor is finally letting go off his past and embracing himself."

Again, I loved the episode but as someone who isn't from the UK or anywhere in Great Britain, I truly have to search deeply to even find most Classical Who related things which I can only assume is even worse in other countries. I just feel like this was not the move to get people into Classic Who and it leaves a few of the new viewers, even the older ones who watched New Who, lost because it just feels like the suspense hasn't paid off for us as we don't really know what to do with a villain that seemingly was so brilliantly set up but never once appeared on screen before.

the way yuuji told nobara the plottwist of human earthworm was that it’s actually about love and the way he said it LIKE HES LOWKEYYY A ROMCOM GUY?? he’d sit down and watch the cutest classic romcoms with you and he’d take mental notes to try and be just as romantic and playful with you (though he doesn’t even need to try he’s naturally just like that)

OHMYGODDDD NONNIE URE FEEDING ME SOMETHING HERE… URE SOOOO INTO SOMETHING.. (1) bet he watches the cringiest movies with you just to wince and laugh at the embarrassment tgt (2) has a knack on picking weird movies without knowing what it is about, without reading the synopsis so whatever unfolds, its both your real-time reaction (3) with this information, he’ll be so serious about romcoms LIKE MAN DID A YAP ABOUT HUMAN EARTHWORM TO KUGISAKI WHSHSH and not only mental notes, he actually writes it down girl 😭 has a small notebook to list down the things a good guy does to their partner and it’ll be the obscure ones most of the time (1) they like it when u pin them onto the wall (2) act cold to attract bad bitches (3) so on WHEN BRO DOES NOT NEED THOSE THINGS he alr has a natural Rizz in him . . Seriously bby yuuji dont try so hard on winning your partner over, in the end you’ll only look ridiculous 🙂‍↔️

- Things that bug me about the plot of Iron Flame -

*Spoilers Obviously *

****

Beware I wrote this late at night right after finishing the book

*****

Things that bug me -

Mostly because they're a) plot holes and bad writing or

B) Xaden still lies everytime he opens his mouth :

1) what's with the second signet? I know we had the theory that it's all the rebellion kids because of the relic. Imogen can erase recent memories and is also very fast (and that IS a signet hence why it was forbidden to use on the mat), Liam had farsight but also somehow wielded ice in the final battle of FW... His dragon's name literally meant ice - and most of the dragon's names are related to their riders signet somehow -

So can anybody explain why the two signet thing is suddenly something only Xaden has? And only because sgaeyl bonded in his direct family line?

That doesn't add up. Unless he's still lying and he has actually three...

2.) Speaking of Xaden's second signet - I think he's still lying about the extend of what he can do. If he could only read intentions then he should not be able to respond to things that violet was thinking in that detail. There is also a line "but I have to know what she's thinking" THINKING - not just her intention or half-before-whatever thought. Yes that would explain why he is such a good fighter but he has to be much more powerful than that.

He also projects his thoughts to Violet at one point (You know when) . Probably unintentionally - but now I have only two explanations :

Either violets second signet is also mind reading (YR confirmed it is already manifested in IF and we will spot it if we know what to look for)

OR Xaden can invade other people's minds. Which then got me thinking that maybe there is no bond between the two at all. It's just Xaden reading Violet's mind and projecting his answers into hers. Now that would be a plottwist.

3.) The Rebellion relics. We learn in this book (from Xaden of all people) that the relics are the result of a rune stone that all the children were holding in their hand while their parents were being executed. It was supposed to counter the signet of the dragon that did the execution - which it does - but how can it be that in FW we learn that the youngest of them was born with one?

So is Xaden lying (can you tell I don't trust that guy?) or is it just sloppy writing?

4.) Last but not least - lazy writing or maybe I was too tired during this part and missed something -

But why can Violet only power one ward stone? I get there had to be a plotpoint to reveal Andarna as the 7th breed but when does it say that every dragon's flame can only be used once? Because she couldn't use Tairn again and had to ask Codagh... And now with Andarna being the only one of the 7th there is only one wardstone that can be powered...

You know what - even if it was explained and I missed it that's still lazy writing imo

Anyway I did not hate it. I actually liked it a lot. Andarna and Tairn bickering actually made my day.

I just hope these things will be explained at some point 😂

What if I talked about Magical AU again

genuinely, it's something I'm still working on! I just want to make it count cuz I genuinely plan to do big things with it

like why I like Saiko in it so much and Melony, and the way they will talk about death considering one of them is an AI assistant turned sentient and the latter is a reaper of sorts

everything 3 and 4 go through from giving each other the cold shoulder to not being able to imagine a life without the other, also the way how you can almost see through Mario of all things their development like it sounds kind of stupid but it's real, it's there

the whole thing with Meggy and Tari and how they meet, how they become friends, Tari's origins

hell, Belle will appear in it too actually, with a really cool role, and similarly to Meta Runner, their roles in the story I think.... they greatly constrast each other which I think will work to their stregths

Whimpu is just there, for the most part. Although there's a bit of a silly plottwist about him that I'm not sure I'll keep. And no, I'm not talking about him flirting with a literal demon

1 and 2's roles and all their trauma, the complex character of Spudnick in it that I DON'T want to reveal just yet that makes me want to run circles around my dorm

BUT I still don't have a lot of things I know I want to have worked out

I m i g h t be lightly stumped on it but I'll figure it out

I like figuring things out

I also like talking if yall didn't notice yet
