Hello, everyone!

My first long post in a while. This year, I've decided to start this series, Audio Fiction I Love, where I write about the audio fiction I keep on coming back to. Not necessarily reviews, per se, because I don't plan on being critical, but recommendations.

I'm kicking off Audio Fiction I Love with the Null/Void podcast by Cole Burkhardt. The show description:

After uncovering a malicious plot, Piper and her friends must defend their small town from a family of ruthless billionaires who wish to exploit and destroy it. Piper must fight to save her home and discover the true identity of Adelaide.

This is also a story about baking.

Dr. Theo Ramsey is an ICRS research scientist who may have just discovered an effective vaccine for Apollyon, but the stakes to get the vaccine to the public are higher than she ever imagined.

Between Heartbeats - Tan immersive Urban Fantasy about the hurt, the powerful, and their growth within a broken world. We follow Sundiata, a guilt-ridden time manipulator with a knack for unemployment, and Nadia, a moralistic telepath determined not to lose control, as they balance frayed mental health against an unsympathetic police state.

Hi Ano! Thank you for being here this year and sharing your stories/ideas with us. As someone who is disabled to the point where I can't leave bed very much these days, people like you mean an incredibly lot to me. I can't go out into the actual world much so you and others help me build my own with your stories and art. I can't thank you enough for making my life so much more bearable.

I hope this new year treats you and I well! Much love from me to you 💕

Ohhh this is so sweet thank you so much this means a lot <33333

I hope you don’t mind my absolute lack for words but sometimes they escape me, but I’m genuinely glad to hear my art has helped you build your world and i hope it continues to to so

Here’s a comic i was never gonna share just for you <333

It revolves around Nightmare’s disability, and Dream using his healing powers just to ease the pain a lil, magical painkillers if you will hahaha, just a bit of my fave bittersweet fluff

I never got around to cleaning it up properly, so excuse any rough edges hchcchhc

[donnieisaprettyboy]

I was telling my fiancé that i wish i could just make up genders and I went “no, actually, fuck it. I’m gonna make up my own gender. I’m gonna call it apathy. I have no gender and no feelings of connection towards the concept of gender.”

and he said “new pronouns just dropped, null/void” and tell me WHY those neopronouns go HARD AS FUCK

[wigglybug]

its like. really not that hard.

[eepy-deebser]

sooo heres a fun little thought experiment /rp obviously

Why does Yellow hate Lukey?

A) He killed and is in a feud with one/multiple of their members B) He pranked their entire base, causing the castle to lag C) He was originally part of Yellow, before being kicked out D) He stole many of their members valued possessions for attention E) He existed

VVV Answers VVV

If you guessed: A, I'm sorry, you are incorrect. That is in fact what Badboyhalo (leader & strongest of the faction), Pangi (righthand man), & Krowfang (or: The Red One, hated by the kingdom's architect) have done! The first two are actually generally well-liked by the Kingdom, despite being the biggest threats and aggressors. Krow, while hated by the Royal Architect, isn't targeted by the rest of the faction because of this.

If you guessed: B, you're definitely incorrect! While mischevious, Lukey hasn't actively antagonized Yellow past generally defending himself in arguments and good-natured ribbing that all the realmers indulge in. This was actually Tubbo– the unexplained god and general joy and whimsy haver! Alongside Bad, he bred a crazy amount of pigs in what was dubbed the Porkalypse, and dropped them over Yellow castle. This was seen as fun and lighthearted, and Tubbo is well-liked by the Kingdom.

If you guessed: C, you may be confusing two well-spoken weak white boys. Jester Bartholomew, better known as Owen! Our lovable Jester larked a little too hard and psychologically shredded the prized Architect. Aw man! But he's dead now, after finally showing the King the best part of the joke: the execution.

If you guessed: D, that one was Badlinu. There isn't much to unpack there, just that they all forgave him for having good reasons (being attention-seeking)

If you guessed: E, you'd be right! Yes, Yellow despises Lukey simply because when he appeared, Roscumber didn't like his vibes. So she killed him, and they've been tripping over their high horses to justify it as "justice". Ignore the fact he's never resorted to any violence! He's evil, and if it doesn't seem so yet, remember: he will be some day. If we push him hard enough, degrade and belittle him enough, one day we can mould the perfect monster. Then we have the sacrificial scapegoat. And we were right all along.

I think it’s real interesting that Jimmy cut enough of Curly’s leg off to feed the entire crew. It’s wasteful, it’s a risk that could’ve killed Curly (all the blood loss and shock) but it also shows the exact Captain Jimmy was.

More was lost than gained as is what happens with most of his actions and it was at the expense of others. No matter of it was through delusion, he kept taking from the people, the person he expected to do the most from him and believed the act of servicing him was one that benefited them all.

It was a celebration, not a feast, he did not need a cake nor was one allotted to him anymore per company policy. But Jimmy needed to be the captain Curly was and he got to slice into something didn’t he?

[s0fter-sin]

how canon do we think warzone is? characterisation things like the takedowns and voice lines?

obviously the takedowns are flashy as hell, that's the point, but things like ghost's "cheers ya slag" and "done and dusted" paint him as so much more arrogant than the campaign suggests

but he is arrogant ("i've seen better" "who?" "me") and we never see him work solo except for the opening scene in mw2 where he chooses to remain danger close to a missile (either just bc or bc he wanted to ensure the kill) so who's to say he doesn't act like that on his own? you even see a hint of it in the camera mission when he shows off to soap and jumps off the building to land on the shadow; what is that if not an arrogant, flashy takedown?

if he's happy to do that in the middle of a stealth mission what else would he do just bc he can?

we know warzone is canon in some respects like the seasonal cutscenes (ala alex's resurrection and "i wasn't in that tank") so at least those are canon but what about everything in between? do specgru and kortac exist in canon? is the 141 part of some greater allied team? (which begs the question why do they never try to contact them when the world is literally on the brink but that’s a very meta, “why didn’t anyone call the avengers in their solo movie?” level of nitpick and we don’t do that here, serious nitpicks only)

do we consider them in character? or is it technically an au? is warzone even made by the same team? would characterisation mean anything to them beyond “does it make the character sound cool?”

even zombies, soap takes on a lot more of a leadership role than we see in the campaign, do we think that's how he acts when he's not with the 141? bc that's a significant shift to go from a leader to a clear subordinate without any chafing or annoyance at getting dropped down the pecking order

then you take skins into account; things like ghost's senpai skin is obviously an au but if he gets new takedowns with it (i haven't played and don't know how it works Imao) do we think main ghost still has that skill set? or is it possible for him to learn it? would he want to?

i think the campaigns are set in stone canon but even that characterisation can be touch and go considering how dirty they did price in mw3 and even how mellow he was in mw2 compared to mw19 and just... everything about the final mw3 mission (and mw3 in general, even shepherd being in the helo when they detain makarov in verdansk is ooc as hell and only exists to serve the narrative)

(characterisation in this aspect is difficult to pin down bc it's hard to tell how much is them writing the character of soap, the character of ghost, and how much is them just writing generic military man 1 and generic military man 2; there's some personality and growth but we have to admit it's thin and subtextual at best. how much of soap's behaviour is bc that's how they wanted soap specifically to react and how much is it bc that's how a military guy would react? (things like being angry about releasing hassan when graves reacts the same way))

so if canon isn't even consistent, can we even trust warzone's characterisation?

(but that's a whole seperate gripe let's stay on track Imao)

do we think it's canon? or is it just battleworld where they can act however the devs want so we spend money on it?
