Italian Dreams Ripped At The Seams

Author Chat: The first "chapter" of whatever I'm going to name this series. I'm not entirely sure yet, haven't settled on a name. BUT I have been DYING to post and get the ball rolling. I am in nursing school and I am writing almost everyday when I get home. the ideas are within my notes app, it's just the struggle of sitting down to do it.

Featuring: DarkEra! Dazai Osamu

Summary: Silence, it's something to fear in an already unstable world. In yours, it could mean anything. Your thoughts race as you think to yourself what the silence, the lack of communication, could actually mean, especially when that silence is caused by Dazai.

word count: 3k, fem!reader, pm!reader, sfw (light cursing), reader is occasionally called "Izanami" a nickname given to her bc of her ability (I'll let you try to figure that one out, until then stay tuned), reader is described as having violet eyes bc of her father (mentioned within this chapter) warnings: mentioned of self-harm, suicide attempt

The ceiling of the Italian Villa’s on-suite bathroom was one that could rival the Sistine Chapel ceiling, or at least, you think so. You’d never actually been or had even thought about it while living your life in Yokohama. Perhaps, now with your excruciatingly long stay in Italy, you would find yourself wandering into the building to admire another country’s history and artwork. 

But that is not why you were staring at the ceiling, instead you were mulling through your thoughts of the past week or so. The shortened phone calls, now completely devoid of them, between you and… well he wasn’t exactly your boyfriend. Or was he? You two had openly expressed your feelings, you two fucked around without a care, but was he even exclusively yours?

You scrunched your nose at the thought. That wasn’t exactly the part that irked you. What bothered you was that he had abruptly stopped calling and sending his sweet letters to you six months into your “study abroad” trip that Mori had all but shoved you out for. He was always honest with you, and you with him, so what would change his perception of you now? Was he tired of you? Was he simply that bothered by your leave that distance does not, in fact, make the heart grow fonder?

You splashed more water onto your chest, resting in the warm bath, hoping it would alleviate the migraine that had accumulated while working today. Your last phone call with him wasn’t long enough. It was so short you could remember every syllable that fell from his lips.

“Mori gave him the Silver Oracle, but of course I told him I’d help him even without it.”

“Well, you’re his friend. Did he not believe you?” You brushed your hair, hoping the smell of formaldehyde had been washed away with your evening shower.

“You know he did, but I could still hear some reservations when I spoke to him. Also, you really gotta talk to him about his ‘no killing’ policy.”

You breathe out a laugh, “Look, he’s been wanting me to read those books for the longest. His mantra is his. I’m just gonna let him do him.”

Dazai sighed, knowing far too well that even if your friendship with Oda rivaled that of his, not even you could persuade him. “Oh, I also had to work with your fath- I mean, Hirotsu. I tossed him my game and he totally fucked up my win streak.”

Your eyebrow twitched at hearing the intentional mess up. “Osamu, just commit to the bit next time. Also, why would you even toss your game to him.”

 Dazai chucked on the other side of the receiver, “I had work to do.”

“Oh yes, big mister executive had to go clean up my father’s mess. I see.”

You didn’t hear anything from him for a moment. You knew he was smiling, but it was a solemn one. He knew how much you wanted to be executive. You were born into the mafia, he wasn’t. While it wasn’t technically a birthright, the two of you felt like it was meant to be yours. Pushing back to the previous topic, you spoke again.

“Tell Oda that I’m looking forward to getting a letter from him. He didn’t pick up the phone the last time I called, but it sounds like he’s quite busy with whatever Mori has tasked him with.”

Dazai hummed to you in response, picking his next words carefully. Slipping into rough Italian, as if he couldn’t let anyone know, and spoke, “I’m worried about him.”

Your mouth curled into a frown, placing the brush down on the vanity. You picked your phone up, taking it off speaker, and placing it to your ear.

“How so?” you reply back, your Italian just as rough.

“He’s…” You could tell Dazai hadn’t had as much experience in the language, having only learned it to speak with you while you were in Italy. It was much more help than he could realize, as you were barely able to converse with your mentor, with your native tongue being Japanese and only knowing basic English. Dazai attempted to keep speaking, “He’s up against a skill rival to his. I just don’t foresee any outcome with this group going well.”

You hum back to him this time, unsure of what to say. You had heard through your contacts about this rival group, Mimic. Now, they had taken Ango, one of Dazai’s friends, your acquaintance. You knew dealing with any foreign group such as this always resulted in death, something you were intimately familiar with, so the thought didn’t plague you too much. Rather, the tone of Dazai’s voice and his words meant that it was Oda who could be the one at the center.

You cease speaking Italian, “I’m sure, whatever the outcome, the four of us will end up at Bar Lupin, clinking our drinks together and laughing about all of this in…” You think to yourself how much longer this sentence is, “three and a half years?”

Dazai puffs into the receiver, whining, “That’s too far from now. I’m gonna have to tell Mori I require a much-needed vacation to Italy real soon.”

You laugh, flopping down onto your down bed with satin sheets, “I would like that very much.”

The two of you fall silent, your eyes growing heavier and heavier. The silence was common toward the end of your phone calls. Sometimes, you could swear he would stay on just to hear the sound of your soft breathing. You would have, if that insomniac would ever fall asleep. 

“Bella, you can go to sleep. You’ll get my letter tomorrow. Just imagine I’m reading it to you.”

“It’s not the saammme.” You groan, throwing your arm over your eyes. “I get why Mori would send me here but fuck for four years?! I would serve the organization better if I was there!”

Dazai was silent, almost as if he didn’t want to agree or disagree with your statement.

“He said it was to hone your ability now that he couldn’t focus on you anymore, so I suppose it’s for the Mafia’s benefit more so than yours. You know where I stand regardless.”

“I know.” You voice was light, emphasizing your feelings.

“I’ll be the one that picks you up from the airport, though. I’ll even sweep you up and spin you around if it gives you something to look forward to.”

You roll over, smiling into your pillow.

“You’re definitely going to be dreaming about that now.” He laughs, possibly daydreaming about it already himself.

You chuckle, smothering your flushed face.

“Get some rest, cara mia. I’ll talk to you again in a few days.” His voice was soothing and low in tone, as if he knew his voice was lulling you to sleep.

“Talk to you soon, mon cher.” You sleepily say, waiting for him to end the call-but he doesn’t. You knew he was waiting for you to fall asleep, your eyes closing until you found yourself opening them again in the morning.

You open your eyes once more gazing upon the painted ceiling above you. It had been a week since then, placing you back into your thoughts on why he hadn’t called, written, or at least attempted to contact you in some other form. Even Oda and Mori hadn’t spoken to you. Which placed you in even more confusing thoughts. Surely, you thought to yourself, surely Mori wasn’t eliminating you from the Mafia. If that were the case, you would have already been killed and disposed of, and the mistress of the Villa, nor your mentor were acting anything out of the normal.

You gaze down, pinching the bridge of your nose. Any more thinking on this topic and surely your head would explode, which would be an invited reprieve at this particular moment. Your eyes dance down to the water, noticing your scar, which was deformed by the refracting water. One on your arm, you reached over to touch, remembering how you and Dazai had taken a knife across your arms hoping for it to be a beautiful double suicide, but alas, Mori found the two of you. He stitched up Dazai, forcing you to stitch up your own wound. You could feel a tear breech and slide down your cheek.

The great Izanami does not cry.

You grab onto the porcelain tub, pressing yourself deeper into the water, forcing your neck, then your face into the water. You open your eyes underneath the water, holding yourself there. Perhaps, if Dazai is done with you-if Oda is done with you-then maybe this is how you should go. You release some air from your lungs, allowing you to sink further under the water. You release your hands from the sides, submerging them, too.

Your lungs begin to burn, screaming for you to go up for air, but you refuse. You blink as you hear a garbled voice within the bathroom. If it is the mistress, there was nothing she could do to stop you. One touch and she would be gone. She knew the rule when it came to you. You blink again, seeing a dark outlined figure standing above the tub. You think to yourself, maybe it is him. However, if it is, he would have already pulled you up. So, it couldn’t be.

You find yourself gasping at fresh air as someone pulls you up from behind, their small hands snaking under your arms.

“Honestly, could you please not kill yourself? I’ve invested too much into you.”

You blink as your eyes burned slightly from the water falling from your lashes. A hand towel is handed to you, and you wipe your face roughly before looking behind you.

“Thank you, Elise.” Mori says sweetly to the girl. She rolls her eyes at you, annoyed that she had to soak her dress to retrieve you.

“What are you doing here?” You say in a harsh tone, irritated that he has interrupted yet another attempt.

“I can come and go as I please, since I am the one funding this education of yours.” His voice returns to the irritated, tired tone that he always uses with you. He’s taken a seat at the chair beside the tub, placing a medium navy-blue box tied in gold ribbon on the side table along with a tan file folder.

“I haven’t heard from you in a week. So, I ask again, what are you doing here?” You become irritated by his intrusion, and deviation from your original question.

You sit up within the tub, not caring for his gaze upon you. He was your technical guardian after all, and you knew his interest in young girls. However, you were unbothered by his now as you neared adulthood, his interest had wavered in you increasingly. The only thing that bound the two of you now was his ownership of you and your ability.

“I suppose you were going about your days here in the villa, wondering what the outcome was with Mimic, since I suppose he told you a bit about the issue.”

Mori was visibly irritated, testing to see how much Dazai told you via your late-night calls. The two of you knew it was very risky to converse about such delicate matters, regardless of what form they were put into. However, you longed to be home, so Dazai had frequently indulged you.

“I just know Oda was involved. That’s all.” You tone was steady, you had lied to Mori countless times before, this time was evidently no different.

He arched his eyebrow, studying your face. “It doesn’t matter now. It’s resolved anyway. We got the permit.”

He closed his eyes in thought. You in turn began to study him, curious as to why he would come to the villa just to inform you of the Port Mafia’s success.

“That can’t be the only reason you’re here.” You turn in the tub, your legs folding into your chest as you cock your head. “To what to I truly owe this intrusion, Mori?”

He slowly opened his eyes to look at you. His eyes darted between your violet ones, formulating his next words. “Sakunosuke Oda unfortunately passed during the fight against Mimic.”

Your eyes widen as you lean forward. You breathe out the only word that can formulate against your thoughts. A broken, “No,” escaping your lips.

Mori closes his eyes once more, leaning his head forward slightly, “And Dazai has disappeared. We do not know his whereabouts.”

“What?!” You spring up from the tub, water splashing about the floor and onto Elise and Mori. Elise groans, reaching for a bigger towel and tossing it to you. You wrap it around your body, attempting to create your next sentence against your pounding headache. “No, he… he would have said something. He would have contacted me. He wouldn’t…”

Your words trailed off as if they couldn’t follow your thoughts.

“Therefore, I came here because you needed to be informed of your new position. Or rather, the one you will take on once you finish here in Italy.”

You could barely hear him over your last conversation with Dazai playing out once more in your head.

"I’ll talk to you again in a few days… You’ll get my letter tomorrow.”

You hadn’t actually received the letter, which is what triggered your incessant thoughts. You had gone up to the mistress, day after day, asking if the letter had arrived, yet nothing came.

“While I am completely optimistic that Dazai will return.” Your eyes narrowed, anger seething from your gritted teeth. “I am leaving his executive position open for his return. In the meantime, you will assume a specially made executive position, and I have the documents to a club and a casino I would like for you to have control over to start with.”

He tapped to the file next to the navy-blue box.

“What’s the box for then?” Your eyes glance to the beautifully decorated box, curious to what could be contained within it.

“Dazai passed it to me a few days before he left, wanted me to send it to you. Instead, I thought it would soften the blow of the pervious news.” His hand fanned over the box in a presenting motion. “It’s been screened of course. Couldn’t have a defected member sending you something that would cause my newest executive to defect too.”

He gave a sly smile. He knew of your relationship with Dazai, but he also knew you feared a life without the Mafia more.

You sneered at him, “Why would I want that from a defected member?”

Your words were merely show, something to appease Mori since you had just been given your prize, however, it wasn’t for all your hard work of the past years. Rather, it was desperation on Mori’s part to hold you closer within his clutches.

“My, my… I didn’t expect you to be so cold when it comes to Dazai.” Mori stood chuckling but leaving the box behind anyway.

He began to walk toward the closed bathroom door, Elise opening it to escape the humid air within the room. He turned on his heel, however, before breeching back into your private room.

“I expect greatness from you, Izanami. Do not fail me.” It echoed within your head as more of an order, rather than a statement.

You emit a low growl at the name, hating to hear it from him of all Mafia members.

He smiled, pleased by your response, and closed the door behind him.

You wait for a moment, listening for the next click of the door being closed. Once you heard the faint noise of Mori’s departure, you scrambled, nearly slipping, from the tub. You grabbed the plush robe from the chair, donning it instead of the towel you had been holding up. Once you had tied the robe, you tear the gold ribbon from the box, haphazardly letting it flutter to the floor. Your hands hesitate with the lid. What if he knew he was leaving? What if…?

You sit down in the chair, placing the heavy midnight box within your lap. You take a deep breath, lifting the lid and placing it upon the file. Your fingers gingerly graze the gray tissue covering the contents, trembling. You notice a splash of darkness appearing on the gray paper. You harshly rub the remaining tears from your cheeks.

Why are you so afraid to look? To see the last thing he’s left you? Because it’s the last. There is no more Dazai. He’s dead as far as the, now, executive you are concerned, but the young girl in you? The one who’s lost the one person on this God-forsaken earth that could touch you without consequence? She was afraid.

You began to peel back the tissue paper, first noticing the maroon color peeking out within the box. Your finger grazed upon the soft material as you remove the right covering paper. Your fingers go to touch your lips, a small choking gasp escaping through them as your tears now forcefully fall from your eyes. It was a scarf he had bought because you had remarked how it complemented his eyes, yet he could never bring himself to wear it, stating it reminded him too much of Mori. You attempted to pick it up from within the box, but you discovered the additional contents that had been wrapped within. Three books, all too familiar to you shifted underneath the scarf. You could hear yourself begin to sob as you picked up the last remaining things of Oda’s clutching the items to your chest. You pressed your face into the scarf, hoping to find some comfort, smelling burnt gunpowder and a faint woody scent, reminiscent of him. 

You could barely see through your tears, almost missing the final present that graced you.

In Italian, evident that he attempted way too many times to write the note, Happy Birthday, Bella. All my love. ~O <3

If I forgot to tag anything, or forgot to mention anything in the warnings, please let me know! I'm still just trying to figure all this out after using Wattpad for so long.

Thank you to everyone who reads this though! Hope you enjoy and look forward to what's to come!

Back to posting my TikToks on here since the app might get banned again in a few days.

Anyway, Daliah being the prophet/oracle low key implies that Azura is Circe, but whatever. This isn’t meant to be like an Odyssey!Fairytopia AU, it’s just an edit with the song bc technically, the Elina at the end of the third movie isn’t the same Elina in the first movie.

[argumate]

interesting, Akamai and Oracle acted to restore service to TikTok after assurances from Trump that they would not face penalties for doing so, but they're technically still liable under current law as written? while Apple and Google still have TikTok blocked on their app stores, cautiously.

C1 (and prompt) / C2 / C3 / C4

Duke’s no visual artist.

He’s a writer, first and foremost, and knows how to weave words into tapestries of literature even though when he speaks, he fumbles as hard as any other teenager. He’s got about seven different documents scattered across three different devices crammed full of quotes that he doesn’t have a use for but wants to, and that’s probably the best metaphor for his day-to-day life that he can come up with.

So, yeah, definitely not a visual artist, unless one can call his half-decent handwriting ‘art.’ Since gaining his powers, though, he’s had to train the skillset to the best of his ability, because otherwise it’s impossible to always convey exactly what he sees in the world.

Shrimp colours? Yeah, they’re funky things. (And technically not shrimp colours, according to Tim, but Duke refuses to call them anything else). Skin stripes? Complete bullshit, thanks for nothing internet.

Okay– not the point.

The point is that sometimes, he loses touch with what exactly is weird, or simply doesn’t notice because he doesn’t have a way of comparing what he sees to what everyone else sees.

The point is that Duke and Damian are in one of the lesser used rooms in the manor, enjoying some much-needed quiet time. Damian has his fancy pencils and markers next to him on the couch, while Duke is on the floor surrounded by a mix of supplies from different brands, and a couple highlighters that Damian sneers at but Duke uses to portray the aforementioned shrimp colours.

Does he think that there’s anything secret to see with their new foster sibling? Nah, not really. The guy looked pretty average, from Duke’s perspective, but often times with magic users or metas, normal doesn’t necessarily mean nothing. (For example, the absolute shitshow that was Duke meeting John Constantine).

With no photo to use for reference, Duke has to wing his drawing. Once or twice he discreetly pulls up the file on his phone, but otherwise there’s no reference, and it shows.

Certainly a bad sketch for a case, but when they need something like that, it’s usually Damian’s job first. What matters more is making him look human enough to get the point across, and Duke manages that just fine. Pale skin, distractingly green eyes, and a monotonous expression make the drawing recognisably their newest foster sibling.

… Okay, yeah, he doesn’t look as human on paper, but that’s probably just Duke’s mediocre art skills. Maybe he should try again.

“Who are you drawing?” Damian asks, glancing down at Duke’s sketch.

⠀

⠀

Cass, in the cave and about to go through some exercises to work out her energy, is not at all amused when she unlocks her phone to see herself logged into the secure JL app that is password locked to oblivion.

There sits a not-so-innocent file, entitled Not A Case: The Case. The folder icon is Oracle’s signature shade of green, in case Cass thought about wondering who made the new file. Clicking around, it seems to be shared with about half of the Bats.

Will it be helpful to gather information? Yes. Is it unfairly invasive? Yes. Is Cass going to complain?

… No.

This is how the Bats show their love, as other heroes tell them over and over (and over, and over).

She flicks out of the JL files and starts up her music. The fight for not turning their new brother into a case has already been lost, but Cass isn’t here to do work.

⠀

⠀

The front entryway of the manor is bugged. This is not considered an invasion of privacy, since Babs warned the family in advance, but maybe it’s a bit of an invasion of privacy now that there’s someone present who doesn’t know about the bugs.

Ehn. She can apologise once John Doe inevitably finds out about the Bat business. In comparison, Barbara’s constant monitoring doesn’t seem as stifling and unnecessary.

To the point – she uses high quality bugs in the manor. It’s the Bats’ safest of safehouses, and she will never take the risk of infiltration.

She zooms in on the scene of the social worker and Brucie chatting in the entry way. Despite being at an angle, the social worker is in crisp quality, while in comparison the teen beside him is completely out of focus, despite the fact that he’s practically angled straight at the camera.

Barbara has been stuck on this oddity all day. None of the footage was modified in any way, and there’s no smudge in any other footage. This, combined with the fact that all attempts at putting him through facial recognition have failed, begins to paint an intriguing picture.

Either he has some impressive masking tech, which has gone undetected by both the Bats and the government, or he may be a meta with some sort of ability to disrupt technology. Barbara is leaning towards the meta theory on account of his odd behavior. Metas are enough to be somewhat of a scientific mystery, and have a wide variety of possible hardships and genetic manifestations that could lead to an unpleasant collection of trauma responses, especially in a city as volatile as Gotham.

She places her current evidence into the slowly growing folder. So far, she’s only drawn Cass’ attention to it, but she knows that the rest of the Bats will come across it in time, and they will all draw their own conclusions. Barbara feels like she’s gotten somewhere, but she’s also a gal with a terrible sleep schedule, and is usually working on at least three cases at a time. It’s always helpful to get a second opinion.

Barbara reaches for her coffee mug, and finds to her dismay that there’s barely a sip left. She figures that’s a good a sign as any to take a break before starting on another case.

⠀

⠀

“Must I have father reduce your patrol lengths?”

Thomas groans, as though Damian’s scepticism is somehow unwarranted, despite the fact his memory is clearly failing him. “Damian, I’m fine.”

Damian raises the supposed drawing of Doe close to Thomas’ face. It’s likely too close, but the motion is mostly for emphasis, and Thomas surely knows what his own drawing looks like. “This hardly looks like him.”

“If you think my art is shit, you can say so.”

“It’s not that,” Damian snaps, dropping the sketchbook to the ground. Thomas’ art may not meet the standards that Damian sets for himself, but the progress he has made in only a few months has been admirable. “You’ve drawn Doe with green eyes, despite the fact that it is clearly stated in his file, as well as extremely evident when looking at him, that his eyes are blue.”

Thomas raises a finger into Damian’s face. “Counterpoint.” Damian swats the finger away, sneering. “His eyes are extremely green. Even greener than yours, and they definitely can’t be confused like Babs’ can.”

Damian scoffs. “Did you pay any attention to him?”

“Did you?”

“If I may,” Alfred’s voice cuts in from the doorway, causing the two to spin around and face the butler. “Could it be possible this odd illusion has something to do with Master Duke’s abilities?”

Hm.

Yes, it very well could be.

“God bless Alfred,” Thomas mutters.

Damian sighs.

JT: Looked at the new file.

JT: I’m assuming you wouldn’t have left us the bait if it was just a technical error?

BG: yeah thanks for noticing

BG: congrats on being first

JT: I got nothing better to do during daylight.

JT: So are we thinking android, storable tech, or meta?

JT: I know what I’m leaning towards.

BG: Is android even an answer?

JT: With some pieces of evidence? Yeah. With everything we have? Fuck no.

JT: Just trying to lighten the atmosphere. I don’t like that shit happened to a kid without us picking up on it.

BG: We can’t save everyone, Jay.

JT: Don’t I know it.

hiiiiii dropping by with asks <33

🦖🌿 and 5, 28, 32!

Hiiii tank 👋🏻 thanks for the questions!! I go full nerd with this so fair warning. I’m putting this under a cut cause it’s pretty long. Enjoy me nerding the fuck out lol

🦖- Favorite extinct animal?

I’m going to give you a whole species of animal because these things are so fucking cool. Thank you SO MUCH for asking this question you’ve made my autistic nerd brain VERY happy to be able to nerd out like this. Get ready for a whole ass encyclopedia entry of an answer.

Creodonta, a whole order of hyper-carnivores (meaning they would get the majority of their nutrients from meat) were large placental mammals that existed for over 50 million years, the last species dying out about 9 million years ago. My favourite genus in this order was Hyaenodon. The largest and smallest species would look something like this compared to someone of my height (5’11/~1.8 m.)

The fossil record for the biggest members is extremely limited as the soil that they are typically found in is too acidic for them to form properly, and the fossils don’t last long enough to be discovered before being destroyed. I get way too depressed about this if I think about it too long. Yes I’m that much of a nerd.

Here’s a bonus picture of some different members of this group

🌿- Describe your favorite outfit.

I don’t really have a favourite outfit right now, so instead I’ll describe my ideal outfit. I like to walk the line between intimidating as fuck and sexy as hell. And pants. It has to have pants (as opposed to a skirt or a dress). High heels to make me even taller, and the taller the better. Leather jacket, dark vampy (dare I say witchy) makeup, and a scary ass aura. That’s my ideal “outfit”.

5. what made you start your blog?

Well technically before I made this into a fan blog it kind of just a burner account. It was completely blank, and I basically just used tumblr as a resource for some niche information. Spiritual stuff, specifically. But then I saw this post (be sure to read the comments and thank me later) and couldn’t get the phrase “vessels two front teeth” out of my head and had to perform an act of catharsis and do something to get it out. That and I had the idea to do the portraits of the tokens, and together it just meant that I needed to get back to my fan blogging roots like when I was 18/19 and in the 5sos fandom.

28. do you collect anything?

Yes, I collect feathers, crystals/rocks, and tarot/oracle decks.

32. how many tabs do you have open right now?

I’m on my phone typing this, and at one point I had 5 apps open to get all the information for these answers. Mainly the first one.

[paladin-of-nerd-fandom65]

Got some more :D

1: what apps do they like to use? I can see them using twitter & maybe TikTok; probably do silly videos on there.

2: did Nightwing & starfire, plus mar’i tried to hide their superhero identity from Jake? (Probably did the same before mar’i got her powers too.)

3: how would a starburst duo movie start?

4: besides spider-man, do they like other spider-man stuff like the venom movie?

5: do they play battle royale games? I can see them both playing Fortnite (& doing the dances both in & out of costumes) but Chris likes COD Warzone & Jake like apex legends.

6: silly question, since they are pre-teens almost & have girlfriends, what do they prefer: butts or boobs? or personality XD

Sorry for the wait @gothicghost2000 But Here we are XD

1. They have three primary social apps: YouTube (the first one respectively), Twitter and Tumblr. All three apps have specific tools The Duo can use for their particular hobbies and interests, Tumblr for example being the blog space where they can give their predicts and hypotheses about their favorite ongoing shows and where it can go from there.

YouTube is their video library place, for all sorts including live streams, recaps of favorite shows/games, and yes thank to the Shorts function, TikTok style videos. Chris and Jake thankfully have both Jake’s tech expertise and even Oracle on some occasions to help them make sure they don’t get busted for copyright by the algorithms.

2. Not entirely actually. Even as a toddler, Jake was a relatively smart cookie and everyone knew it so before he was able to piece it altogether by the time he was 3 to 4 in his own way, Dick and Kory came clean to him about everything and even Mar’i pitched in about her training to one day be a great superhero like Momma and Daddy are since she has powers while Jake’s are still not kicking in.

I can just imagine little Jakey looking at his family, taking it all in and then finally breaking the silence saying “Does that mean I blast lasers from my eyes too later?” Akin to when Marky found out his powers at the end did the original Invincible comic

3. Basically I’d have first a colorful and detailed title sequence that through simple comic panels and even some motion comic elements, details the basics of how the Duo were born, Chris’ arrival on Earth and adoption by the Kents, the two first meeting as little kids who look up to their parents as their heroes, Jake’s power first kicking in when fending off a bully at school, the Duo training on their powers together and gaining renown slow but steadily, then once the title scene ends, we open with a bang as we are catching up with the Duo in the middle of a massive superhero battle in Metropolis against all sorts of baddies and villains, something akin to the opening shots of Star Wars III: Revenge of the Sith

4. They have a good laugh and thrill at the first and second Venom movies respectively. They also are big time fans of the Spiderverse films; there actually is a strongly passionate debate between Chris and Jake over which Spidey films are better. Chris vouches for the Raimi trilogy while Jake sides firmly with Spiderverse. Other than all that though, both also watch every single Spidey animated series, good or bad, collect what their friends online consider the best runs in both Marvel Prime and the Ultimate Universe (the latter Jake is really into thanks to his Uncle Tim(my) loving Ultimate Spidey) and regularly playing co op on the Playstation games

5. Only once a month really and it’s mainly Fortnite. I can’t really see them playing COD or Apex not just because those two are more FPS centric which even if fictional in universe doesn’t sit that well with them for various reasons, but also for COD especially there egregious money practices from all that miscellaneous DLC, Lootboxes when they are a thing, battle passes, etc. it just doesn’t sit right even if technically Jake can be considered a millionaire’s kid at best

6. Personality. Full stop. Even if they’re aware of the more scandalous and fanservice side of true love, they have the content of a female’s character above physical appearance of any kind. Chris and Jake respect girls and women, plain and simple.

Why Does Cash App Say Cash-Out Failed?

A failed cash-out beckons from the shadows in the mystic of digital payments, bearing an enigmatic aura. Let us shed light on this riddle and explore reasons why Cash App says cash out failed:

· Imagine the digital wallet of your Cash App yearning is having insufficient balance. The lack of funds is a leading culprit behind the “Cash Out Failed” issue. Thus, before venturing forth, bestow upon your coffers the riches they deserve.

· In virtual connections, the winds of connectivity sway capriciously as ever. A weak network tether can shatter your transaction dreams with the whisper of failure.

· Amid the digital ether, even the sturdiest server’s stumble. Technical glitches and maintenance masquerades can cast shadows upon your cash-out quest.

· Should the key to your treasury, your payment method, be rendered ineffectual through expiration or lack, the gates shall remain locked, thwarting your cash-out ambitions.

· Beware the sentinels of security! Additional verification beckons, and its unanswered call can lead to the haunting refrain of a failed transaction.

Why Is My Cash App Not Letting Me Send Money?

Ah, the irresistible allure of sending digital gold through Cash App’s conduit! Yet, within the intricate web of transactions, entanglements may arise, causing your golden plans to fizzle:

· Unveil your identity through account verification, for without this step; the gatekeepers might bar your way, withholding the power to send.

· In the realm of recipients, arcane settings might cast chains upon your golden gift. Ensure their account is open and unshackled, ready to embrace your virtual embrace.

· The symphony of transactions might stumble upon frozen echoes — an account frozen due to suspicions or a misstep, thwarting your virtuoso performance.

· Beware of the dance of details as you weave your tale of the transaction. Mismatched or misdirected steps can lead you astray, away from the desired crescendo.

How Do I Fix “Failed to Add Cash to Cash App”?

The endeavour to infuse life into your Cash App treasury can sometimes plunge into the abyss of “Failed to Add Cash on Cash App.” Fear not, for we shall traverse this chasm with aplomb:

· The melody of your linked payment card must resonate with validity and sufficiency. An expired note or an empty tune shall lead to this sad refrain.

· Cards, like wandering minstrels, might be bound by limitations. Please verify with your bard and your bank whether online or mobile payments are within their lyrical range.

· Should the mobile app falter, a cache’s whisper could bring clarity. Clear the cache, unravel the glitches, and let the harmony of Cash App resound anew.

· The river of transactions knows its tides. Patience becomes your guiding star when servers teem with activity or maintenance calls. Wait, and the waters shall calm.

What is the Cash App Cash out Limit?

Within the digital tapestry, there are some Cash App cash out limit. Cash App’s embrace holds boundaries, and the path to transcending these boundaries is adorned with wisdom:

· The crown of higher limits rests upon the brow of verified accounts. With identity crowned, transactions flourish, and boundaries recede.

· When the realm of higher limits beckons, the oracle of support awaits. Seek its counsel, request a limit’s expansion, and chart a course beyond the ordinary.

Is Odoo the Right ERP for You? A Decision-Making Framework

Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems are the digital backbone of modern businesses. From accounting and HR to sales and inventory, they bring core processes together into one unified system. Among the many ERP platforms available today, Odoo has emerged as one of the most versatile, cost-effective, and scalable solutions on the market. But with options like SAP, Oracle, and Microsoft Dynamics also in the mix, how do you know if Odoo is the right fit for your business?

The answer lies in understanding your operational needs, evaluating your team’s technical capacity, and aligning your choice with long-term goals. Odoo’s modular, open-source architecture makes it ideal for companies seeking flexibility, but that same flexibility can be overwhelming for first-time users. To get the most out of your investment, many organizations choose to hire Odoo developer support early in the decision-making and implementation process — ensuring the platform is configured specifically for their business model.

This guide lays out a practical, step-by-step decision-making framework to help you determine if Odoo is the right ERP solution for you in 2025 and beyond.

1. Understand What Odoo Offers

Odoo is not a single application — it’s a suite of integrated business modules. You can start with just a few (e.g., CRM, Sales, Accounting) and gradually expand as your business needs grow. This modular approach is one of Odoo’s biggest advantages over traditional ERP systems that require large up-front commitments.

Odoo includes over 30 core modules and 30,000+ community-developed apps. These cover:

Customer Relationship Management (CRM)

Inventory and Warehouse Management

Sales and Invoicing

Accounting and Payroll

Human Resources

Manufacturing

Marketing Automation

Website and eCommerce

Whether you’re a small startup or a scaling enterprise, Odoo can be molded to fit your needs — provided you understand what you need to mold it into.

2. Evaluate Your Business Size and Complexity

Your company’s size and operational complexity should heavily influence your ERP decision.

Odoo is ideal if:

You want to start small and scale functionality over time.

Your workflows aren’t overly rigid and can benefit from flexible configuration.

You operate in a niche industry and need custom solutions.

However, if your organization already uses highly structured workflows or has strict regulatory compliance needs (such as in healthcare or government sectors), you’ll want to ensure Odoo can meet these demands through third-party modules or custom development.

3. Consider Your Budget (Not Just for Licensing)

One of Odoo’s major appeals is its affordability. The community version is completely free, and the enterprise version is competitively priced — especially when compared to SAP or Oracle, which can cost tens or hundreds of thousands in licensing alone.

That said, the total cost of ownership goes beyond licenses. You’ll need to factor in:

Implementation costs

Hosting (Odoo.sh, on-premise, or third-party)

Support and training

Potential customization

Third-party integrations

For many businesses, especially those building an online presence in parallel, it makes sense to integrate ERP with existing digital platforms. This is why many opt for professional website development services that can bridge the functionality between a company’s public-facing website and back-end operations through Odoo’s built-in website and eCommerce modules.

4. Assess Your Team’s Technical Capabilities

Odoo’s power lies in its flexibility — but that flexibility assumes you have the know-how to configure and manage it. If you don’t have in-house IT or development staff familiar with Python, PostgreSQL, and Odoo’s ORM framework, your business could face a steep learning curve.

That doesn’t mean Odoo isn’t for you — it simply means your team may benefit from outside guidance. This is why many businesses choose to hire Odoo developer experts who can:

Translate your workflows into digital processes

Configure modules to fit your exact use case

Manage data migration and API integrations

Handle testing and performance tuning

Skipping this step often results in misaligned processes, staff frustration, and lost time.

5. Look at Integration Requirements

If your business relies on multiple platforms — like a custom CRM, eCommerce engine, or marketing automation tools — you'll need to know how Odoo integrates with them.

Odoo offers solid API support and dozens of pre-built connectors. It also works well with platforms like:

PayPal, Stripe, and other payment gateways

Google Workspace and Microsoft 365

eBay, Amazon, and WooCommerce

ShipStation and DHL for logistics

Still, complex integrations may require development skills or third-party apps. This is particularly important for businesses transitioning from or operating alongside WordPress-based platforms. In such cases, many opt to hire professional WordPress developer support to ensure seamless user experience and secure, synchronized functionality between their ERP and CMS.

6. Think About Long-Term Scalability

Odoo’s modularity makes it inherently scalable. You can start with just a few users and modules, and add more as you grow. It supports multi-company, multi-currency, and multi-language environments, making it suitable even for international operations.

Scalability questions to ask:

Will your ERP need to support multiple warehouses or locations?

Do you foresee adding new lines of business or services?

Will your headcount or customer base grow significantly?

If the answer is yes to any of the above, Odoo can grow with you — but you’ll want to plan for it. Proper database design, hosting setup, and custom workflows will be essential.

7. Determine Your Implementation Timeline

ERP systems are complex. Even a “light” implementation can take weeks or months. Planning your Odoo rollout involves:

Setting clear objectives and KPIs

Prioritizing modules (don’t activate everything at once)

Migrating data

Testing and training

If you’re unsure where to start, following a guide to setting up Odoo for your business can help you understand the recommended phases — from pre-implementation planning to post-launch support. It also helps you spot potential roadblocks before they affect operations.

8. Compare Alternatives Before Committing

It’s always smart to compare your options. While Odoo is powerful, it's not the only choice. Others worth considering:

SAP Business One – better for companies already using SAP products or requiring complex reporting

NetSuite – cloud-based, excellent for financials and scaling mid-market companies

Zoho One – affordable and integrated but more limited in customization

Compared to these, Odoo offers more flexibility, lower cost, and greater community support. But your final decision should weigh functional needs, tech readiness, and growth strategy.

9. Take Advantage of the Odoo Ecosystem

One of Odoo’s most underutilized strengths is its thriving community and ecosystem. You’re not limited to what the core team builds — there are thousands of developers, partners, and third-party apps that can help you achieve almost anything with the platform.

Benefits of tapping into the Odoo ecosystem include:

Affordable third-party apps on the Odoo App Store

Access to experienced freelancers and agencies

Extensive online documentation and video tutorials

Peer-to-peer support in forums and GitHub

This ecosystem empowers businesses of all sizes to experiment, iterate, and evolve.

Conclusion: Making the Final Decision

Odoo is a flexible, cost-effective ERP that adapts to your needs — not the other way around. Whether you’re just starting out or planning enterprise-level scaling, Odoo provides a solid foundation for growth. But its success in your business depends on thoughtful planning, strategic configuration, and expert guidance where needed.

If you:

Need an ERP that adapts to your workflows

Want to start lean and scale gradually

Value open-source flexibility

Have (or can access) development resources

… then Odoo may be exactly what you’re looking for.Want more strategic insights on tools that grow with your business? We quietly share actionable tips and digital strategies on Instagram — curated for entrepreneurs and business leaders shaping the future.

In today’s fast-evolving business environment, agility isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity. Organizations running on Oracle’s JD Edwards (JDE) applications understand the power of a robust ERP system. But are you leveraging its full potential? Whether you're looking to modernize infrastructure, streamline operations, or enhance compliance, JD Edwards Consulting Services in Chicago can be your game-changing move in 2025.

How to Assess Oracle EBS Customizations Before Cloud Migration

Migrating from Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) to Oracle Cloud Applications (Fusion) isn’t just a technical upgrade—it’s a transformation. One of the most critical and often underestimated parts of this journey is assessing customizations. Over the years, organizations have tailored their EBS environments with custom reports, workflows, forms, and extensions to meet specific business needs. But not everything needs to move to the cloud. Some customizations become obsolete, while others can now be addressed with built-in cloud functionality.

This blog outlines a practical approach to assessing your EBS customizations before migrating to Oracle Cloud, helping you reduce technical debt, streamline operations, and align with modern best practices.

1. Identify All Existing Customizations

Before deciding what to migrate, you need a full inventory of what’s customized in your EBS environment. This includes:

Custom Forms (FMBs)

Custom Reports (RDFs, BI Publisher, Discoverer)

Workflows and Alerts

PL/SQL packages, procedures, triggers

Custom menus, responsibilities, and profiles

Third-party integrations

Use tools like Oracle Application Object Library (AOL) tables, custom code repositories, or Oracle-provided utilities (like Customization Analyzer or EBS Upgrade Companion) to extract and document this data.

2. Classify and Categorize the Customizations

Once identified, classify the customizations into categories such as:

Mandatory (business-critical)

Nice to have

Obsolete or redundant

Replaced by standard cloud functionality

This helps stakeholders prioritize what needs to be rebuilt, replaced, or retired.

3. Evaluate Business Relevance in the Cloud Context

Many EBS customizations were created due to gaps in standard functionality. But Oracle Cloud Applications are built with industry best practices, modern capabilities, and built-in analytics. Before deciding to rebuild a customization:

Ask why it was created

Check if similar functionality is now standard in Oracle Cloud

Consider whether adapting business processes to the cloud's standard flow is a better option

This approach reduces custom development and long-term maintenance efforts.

4. Map Customizations to Cloud Equivalents

For viable customizations, determine how they can be translated in the cloud: EBS CustomizationOracle Cloud EquivalentForms (FMBs)Visual Builder Apps, Page Composer, App ComposerPL/SQL CodeGroovy Scripts, REST APIs, Cloud FunctionsWorkflowsBPM Workflows, Approval RulesReports (RDF)BI Publisher, OTBI, Fusion Analytics

Understanding these mappings helps scope the effort required and guides design decisions in the cloud environment.

5. Document, Rationalize, and Get Stakeholder Buy-in

Create a detailed Customization Assessment Register that includes:

Custom object name

Purpose

Business owner

Migration decision (Migrate, Replace, Retire)

Notes on implementation approach

Review it with stakeholders and functional leads to ensure alignment before proceeding with design or development in the cloud.

Conclusion

Assessing Oracle EBS customizations is a vital early step in your cloud migration journey. It ensures you're not just copying legacy complexity into a modern platform. By identifying, classifying, and evaluating your customizations thoughtfully, you can take full advantage of Oracle Cloud’s built-in capabilities, reduce future maintenance, and create a cleaner, more agile system.

Start early, collaborate with your business users, and think cloud-first—your future self will thank you.
