ppau's second anniversary!

it is i. ppau's second anniversary is upon us (like in a week) (well literally in a week that's why i'm announcing it now) and to celebrate i will be emerging from hibernation to drop currently unknown amounts of content on you all throughout the week. there are also some important milestones to celebrate, like 1000 kudos and 200 comments. to say that i wasn't expecting this when i published my 2am creation almost 2 years ago would be an understatement, but here we are.

so here's the plan for what i'm going to be posting this week!

team liquid '23 worlds cope series fic

crown character short

rekkles character short i wrote a long ass time ago in hawaii with no wifi

a shit ton of deleted scenes, alternate chapters, and unfinished bits including but not limited to the original draft of odywyh chapter 4, the og draft of dfwydk chapter 2, mid lane chaos, ls aka lost sanity, and WoW references

canyon and showmaker divorce era fic (first chapter or so, not that it's gonna be a long one)

POSSIBLY a little gift for someone who held a gun to my head and said ok write about na zoomers (also chapter one or so)

POSSIBLY a lunar new year fic about viper and deokdam with some unexpected guests

POSSIBLY edg reunion after worlds 2023 fic

POSSIBLY keria's worlds 2023 fic in which he fights a demon and also becomes elementalist lux

POSSIBLY a chapter of a jackeylove fic

oh also there's a website now. check out the ppau wiki if you want to see some easter eggs and sneak peeks!

thank you all so so so so so so so so (you get the idea) much for your comments, kudos and general support. i couldn't have come up with all this bullshit without you. happy ppau week and thank you for reading!

RISE—a debatable "analysis"

so, league of legends and the word alive just recently released rise (redux) as a celebration of the original rise, and it made me realise just how many versions of rise have been released over the years. and then, i thought, well. why shouldn't i go over all of them? it's not like anyone's stopping me :]

so, enjoy my thoughts on every version of rise that i could find! supposedly there was a nightcore version at some point but i couldn't find anything official so it will have to stay off the list for now. also jackeylove has some opinions to share from when each of these came out.

his text looks like this

my actual thoughts look like this

don't blame me for tumblr formatting options they all suck ok

RISE (2018)

youtube spotify

next year it’s gonna be me in the music video just you wait we’re gonna destroy this thing

nostalgia-wise, this isn’t my favorite worlds song. definitely not my favourite mv, but production-wise, i can’t imagine any worlds song that could top this one. although mako has worked on every worlds song since at least 2017 (i think 2016 too, but i can’t easily verify that) except for 2̷̨̫̫͓͕̀̓0̷̡̠̹̭͉́2̶̳͕̟̜̄̓̀͗́2̶̠͉͆̍, he absolutely popped off with this one in particular. the gravelly effect added to his vocals helps demonstrate the weight of the lyrics, and then when it’s taken off for telle’s RISE, it feels even clearer, like they’re breaking through all the barriers to go higher, to literally rise above it all. the bpm (177!) can be felt right at the start, a frantic pace demonstrating just how quickly you could lose everything, how fast you need to move, and the bridge has some of my favourite lyrics in all of riot’s songs. i love nearly all of the worlds songs, but the storytelling in this one is wonderful even without the mv.

RISE - Remix (2018)

youtube spotify

better than the original version no competition 

rookie looked over my shoulder while i was writing this and laughed at me because he says the rap sucks. well FUCK YOU i’m writing all this in voidtongue from now on how about YOU suck fucking music snob asshole why are you so good at singing

on a lyrical level yeah sure rookie’s right; half of it is product placement. however. sometimes noise is good. i usually don’t like remixes, but here it works, because more going on doesn’t take away from the song; just makes it more hype. i don’t follow bobby or ikon much but his flow here is really clean and it’s just a vibe. i think recently i’ve listened to this version much more than the original just because of how much more energy it has, and while it doesn’t have the same feel, i still really like it

RISE - Live (2018)

youtube

honestly don’t even care it was that bad. we got to laugh about it and then we won so if anything it was just a good luck charm

good thing we weren’t in view at the start of the performance though i think rookie was crying although from laughter or just how bad it was i’m not sure

okay yeah. mako completely threw this one i have no idea what he was on

HOWEVER. telle did great. and yk what once bobby came on mako sounded fine.

it’s still obviously. not good. but it could have been worse. my main problem with it isn’t even the performance it’s the fact that riot turned the mics way down for opening ceremonies after 2018 which is a CRIME LET THEM SING LIVE (it was a bit better for rise 2023 but the other songs were still very loud on the backtracks. i get that some singers aren’t great at the whole projecting thing but come on you can’t tell if you can’t even hear them over the backtrack.)

RISE - UNSECRET Cover (2021)

youtube spotify

yeah i can vibe to this right about now

i like this version a lot but out of all the official releases i think i have to put it fourth through no fault of its own but just because it feels like there’s something missing. it’s gritty and it’s definitely a vibe but there aren’t the layers of production that you don’t notice until they’re missing, especially with how flat the RISE feels. of course, this makes sense—it’s riot forge, and production is all attributed to UNSECRET, but it’s a shame that by any other standards it’d be an absolute banger but here it falls just short. fun fact though, this was the version i put on my playlist for when i was writing nmftg (and no i haven't forgotten about the behind the scenes stuff i promised. it's coming soon i swear)

RISE - Demo

twitter

hm. so maybe he can sing

there’s a reason i heap so much praise on mako. these are demo vocals and just the layers here give me chills, not to mention how much of a sucker i am for strings. i would pay so much for a full album of a full version of all of his silly little string arrangements for all the worlds (and other riot songs, let’s be real) songs he worked on. you have no idea. can’t judge it as a full song but if it were it would be very high on my list

RISE - Live (2023)

youtube

0/10 should have been ME at the top of the rift i would have kicked gumayusi’s ASS

look, i’m biased. but seeing mako’s redemption was everything (and if you haven’t seen the clip he posted, absolutely check it out) and the orchestral instrumental slowing it down instead of the more frantic opening and hard beat gave it a more serious weight that felt especially appropriate for the revival of the song and the ongoing themes of 2023 worlds, with the Glory and the previous winners looking for redemption (even though wbg were complete frauds). it’s a perfect rendition for that ceremony and honestly like. thanks for not doing a season start cinematic riot the rise redemption was a banger you can tell just how much being able to do that performance meant to them and the emotions brought me to tears watching it live

i am glad they brought back season start song for this year though :)

also mako’s jacket was really really cool look

Rise (Redux) (2024)

youtube spotify

this is my personal anthem no i will not elaborate

telle’s vocals on this track are just so full of emotion that i can’t not love it. add to that my soft spot for rock and you get just a beautiful song. i can’t say whether or not it’s my favourite, just due to how new it is, but it’s undoubtedly great, and you should listen to it :)

anyway, i hope at least someone enjoyed my somewhat random thoughts! i love talking about music, especially riot's, and ranting about worlds anthems is what got me writing ppau in the first place, so it holds a special place in my heart. if people are interested, maybe i'll do something else talking about the worlds anthems! or maybe no one cares and this is going into the void. oh well. it was fun to write, especially with jackeylove's little comments. love him.

if you saw a typo no you didn't this is a thousand words of pure brainrot and nothing else

[photogenicfirecracker]

GRABS YOU GRABS YOU. I just want to say holy crud small world, because here I am, a former member of PPAU seeing mention of my old group in the fandom I am currently hyperfixating on (and writing a protagonist OC of my own) Your art is gorgeous, and tell everyone at PPAU that Neon says hi :] (I wrote Maldive and Rallus.)

OMG??? I REMEMBER BOTH OF THEM YOUR ART WAS SO COOL!! I dont remember if i ever talked to you when you were there, but i remember seeing you around, I will certainly tell them hello for you!! Cool to see you here, that's such a crazy coincidence!! If you ever wanna ramble about mhs, my dms are definitely open :]

[livikattt]

so idk how much you've kept up with lpl this year but for the first time ever jackeylove has a midlaner younger than him and sometimes when i watch them interact im like. you got that from rookie didnt you. like when creme said jkl is the only one willing to 1v1 him most of the time and how that's something rookie and jkl did all the time (and both of them admitted to knowing rookie let him win a lot of the time) anyways i am feeling very Normal about this as you can see

ROOKIE FUCKING WHATTTT

im crying. im crying. im crying. rookie really adopted this mf huh

[livikattt]

very late ruination station post

this is gonna be a bunch of ruination station thoughts and explanations and easter eggs and such. with no particular system of organization or anything. i will link the entire ruination station here to make up for previously mentioned lack of organization. all chaotic thoughts will be under the break

now I'll never be the same

look the fall in the eyes

where the hunters get hunted

now you're coming at the king

fire in our blood (but we're still cold-hearted)

the ones that are voiceless

(don't) fear what you don't know

take to the skies

the sinful and the saviors

also check out there's a part of myself i'm missing by aryasage. that is all.

spoilers below (obviously)

I had a thing going with the idea of your greatest weakness being your greatest weapon, as Meiko alludes to in the first chapter of the finale. For Viper, that obviously refers to his noctum, while Viego's is love. Or whatever he thinks love is. For the Sentinels, love can also be their greatest weakness and weapon, since there are multiple times when someone sacrifices themselves to protect someone they love.

Viego is kind of aware of his weakness being love, which is why he orders JackeyLove not to confront Rookie. Generally, expressions of love are what (temporarily) break Viego's control, and so he tries to avoid that.

Another one of Viego's weaknesses is his pride. He considers the Summoners beneath him, which kind of comes back to bite him, since Keria just has to flatter him a bit to get him to leave the rest of T1 alone. He also makes Chovy keep his mouth shut in the finale, assuming whatever he wants to say isn't worth listening to. Chovy was going to inform him that Rookie and Keria had switched places, so that's another mistake by Viego.

DK have a variety of code names, including Crocodile-Polar Bear-Showmaker-Alpaca-Bird (they sometimes call SM Chihuahua, which he doesn’t appreciate) and Kim 1-4.

The "because Faker" joke I always pull out when Faker does something vaguely impossible/dramatic has an in-universe explanation, as revealed in (don't) fear what you don't know: his wish to be unkillable. See? All planned. Everything Faker does is planned. Mmmm yes.

I fucked around with chess piece metaphors on occasion, like when Chovy sees himself as a knight on Viego's magic chess map despite being a pawn, or how the king is the deciding piece of the game despite the queen being more powerful, Viper telling the shadows he won't be their pawn, Viego using the white pieces to represent himself because he thinks he's the good guy and because he moves first (also because he's pasty af), Rookie telling JackeyLove he's just one of Viego's pawns, and Bel'Veth using pawns to create a queen. That's why Keria says "checkmate" after the Dramatic Reveal.

Danny says he "chose" to push himself past his limits, since the truth about Danny and EG hadn't come out at the time. Maybe in this universe, he was gaslit into thinking it was his fault. I wouldn't put it past... certain people. (EG management. I'm looking at you.)

The emergency self-destruct feature on Canyon’s spear Riptide isn’t meant to keep Riptide from falling into the wrong hands, since Canyon is able to call it back to him. It serves as a way to deal a devastating blow to a large monster, or a way to save Canyon from a fate worse than death.

There's a reference to Showmaker's streaming shirt in (don't) fear what you don't know.

Braiding Canyon’s mane is both therapeutic in the moment and very helpful later when Showmaker holds onto the braids in order to ride on his back.

The most consistent thing in this universe is that Flandre snores loudly.

Sarcasm counts towards Rookie’s lying quota, which is why he’s a sarcastic little rat most of the time.

Ning and TheShy weren't supposed to go with Rookie, but I couldn't resist the temptation of the Squad Reunion. (Except, you know, no Duke.)

Viper isn’t the most selfless person in ppau. That’s not to say that he’s selfish, by the way. Anyway, when he sees Showmaker try to sacrifice for Canyon, he starts to understand, and offers to fight dragon Meiko himself in order to protect them, believing Showmaker to be a better person than him because of his attempted self-sacrifice.

For JackeyLove reasons, he reacts much more to his real name, so when Rookie calls him Wenbo, he snaps out of his possession enough to order the Void monsters to leave him alone. JackeyLove isn’t a healer, so he can’t do anything but apologize to Rookie and keep him from being torn to pieces.

Don't ask me about the political implications of the Shadow Isles turning back into Taiwan.

WHY ARE THERE SO MANY OF THEM

[livikattt]

ppau headcanons except it's my universe so i don't think they qualify as headcanons (part 1??)

half of these are thanks to @aryasage as usual :3

Meiko and EDG have a ridiculous amount of fun figuring out his shape-shifting abilities, even if it does come with a few near-death experiences. He turns into a fly exactly ONCE without telling anyone it's him, and Jiejie almost murders him with an electric flyswatter. They silently agree to never talk about the incident again, and from then on, when Meiko turns into bugs, he makes it obvious that it's, you know, him.

Now they have trust issues because that potted plant in the bathroom probably isn't him but what if it IS? Is that a regular spider or is it Meiko fucking with them? The world may never know.

Perkz has two closets, one for his normal clothes and one for his Xayah clothes, since it's kind of hard to wear normal shirts when he has two giant wings attached to his back. The whole inconvenience of having wings is part of the reason why he goes bothers getting rid of them before becoming a mid laner again (although after the events of "brute force and style combine"... he's probably going to have to do that again.) Mikyx gave him a few shirts to start him off, and then taught him how to make his own.

Xayah and Rakan Summoners have a lot of struggles with clothing and also sitting in cars or laying on their backs. They can fly, though, so cars are kind of obsolete anyway. It's really depressing for them to see a shirt that they really like only to remember Oh Fuck I Have Wings. CoreJJ learns to stop saying that out loud when he sees a nice jacket on a mannequin, mentions how much he wishes it had wing holes, and barely has the time to keep Tactical from turning it into an impromptu DIY project.

Gumayusi is really, really fucking good with a bow/crossbow. The bow was his first weapon, but he switched to guns after seeing Doublelift's customized one. He learns to master the crossbow when he realizes that both of Keria's past ADCs, Teddy and Deft, used it as their weapon of choice, and isn't about to be third place in anything.

Speaking of Teddy and Gumayusi, sometime after the events of "someday both of us are leaving here", Gumayusi manages to beat out Teddy for the high score in the T1 shooting simulator. With Keria cheering him on from behind the training room door, of course.

[livikattt]

so about formal attire scene

regarding suggestions

jiejie can summon his sword out of thin air because black mist and also convenience so I can't troll him (the only member of EDG that would have an issue would be flandre, and that's assuming he doesn't have the braincells to keep his shotgun in his pocket dimension)

keria straight up waterbends so he has his usual powers but I do agree he seems like a master of improvised weapons

multiple regions gathered together is giving all-stars, and sure, that's not happening this year, but they can still meet. as a Treat.

bjergsen keeps his pocket watch because it's fancy enough for formal occasions (being a pocket watch and all) so he's out

zeus would have to improvise without his hammer, but oner... well. oner. guma would have problems. faker wouldn't, because faker.

wait

ok hear me out

perkz wedding but its bigger and a bunch of summoners from around the world roll up

no weapons ofc

but oh no bro??? we're at ur wedding and we got attacked by void creatures??? and now we all gotta work together to protect the guests?? and u left ur sword at home and holy FUCK is that faker with a butter knife

[livikattt]

daily fun but useless ppau fact #3

thank u aryasage for helping my function to brain

without further ado here's every time someone's ulted in ppau (...so far)

Jankos, switching between human and lion

Canyon, switching between human and lion

Perkz, in an attempted finishing move vs. DWG

Wunder, in an attempted finishing move vs. DWG

Nuguri, in order to counter said finishing move

Showmaker, in order to stun Jankos

Gumayusi, aiming at specific spots

Keria, vaguely, because Keria's whole thing is vague

Humanoid, teleporting FNC to America

Bjergsen, to cheat death

Teddy, to beat Gumayusi and Keria in their sparring match

Ruler, to beat Gumayusi in their tiebreaker

Faker, to fight Showmaker and to save Gumayusi

Zeus, to switch between hammer/cannon form

Oner, to kill Rek'Sai (I mean whaaaat)

Kellin, fighting vs. T1

Biofrost, in his berserk state (several times bc cooldown what cooldown)

Neo, to pull Biofrost from the Void

that's all of them (probably) that appear in (published) fics. in a deleted segment of my TSM fic, Tactical technically presses R. malphite R. but that's it for now :D

every member of T1 has ulted... goddamn

[livikattt]

daily fun but useless ppau fact #2

there are 50 champions that don't have a specific Summoner representing them in ppau-verse (...for now):

Amumu

Anivia

Aurelion Sol

Bel'Veth*

Blitzcrank

Braum

Cassiopeia

Cho'Gath*

Fiddlesticks

Fizz

Galio

Garen

Gragas**

Illaoi

Ivern

K'Sante

Kassadin

Katarina

Kha'Zix*

Kog'Maw*

Lillia

Master Yi

Miss Fortune

Mordekaiser

Morgana

Nasus

Neeko

Ornn

Pantheon

Rammus

Rek'Sai*

Sejuani

Shaco

Shyvana

Sion

Sivir

Sona

Swain

Tryndamere

Udyr

Varus

Veigar

Vel'Koz*

Vi

Vladimir

Warwick

Wukong

Xerath

Yorick

Ziggs

*- this is a Void champion, so they're not assigned to Summoners. Some of them have made appearances at some point or another, and most of them have Void creatures based off them.

**-I won't be writing a Gragas-based Summoner any time soon, since his entire concept is just "fat drunk guy" and there's way too many issues with that for me to be able to respectfully translate him into this universe.

There are also a bunch of champions with only one Summoner representing them. Some of them will only ever have one Summoner, while some of them just aren't the right fit for anyone but that one person.

Thanks for reading the daily useless fun fact :D

[livikattt]

Hmmmm number 10 please :D

ah, "ls fanboy moment", in which c9's fudge and blaber try hunting down LS. this takes place before spring 2022 and was probably meant to be one of the Lore Focused Fics. how much of that lore still holds up? uh... who knows.

“There’s a whole house with a garden and fence,” Blaber says like it’s the most obvious thing in the world, gesturing to thin air. He frowns when he sees the actual confusion in Fudge’s eyes. “Can you seriously not see it?”

Briefly, Fudge wonders if he’s losing his mind. Blaber shakes his head, leaning down to pick up a rock. He throws it straight ahead, and to Fudge’s surprise, it collides with something and drops to the ground.

“What the fuck,” says a familiar voice, and Fudge can’t hide his grin. “That’s a Crownie comet if I’ve ever seen one.” An invisible door shuts.

“LS,” he calls, waving at the empty air. One second, it’s just him and Blaber and the wind. The next, a figure blinks into visibility, a familiar smile on his face. LS gives him a quick hug before he backs up to look at Blaber and his wolf.

“No wonder you could see through my shroud,” LS says to Blaber, nodding to the wolf. “I’ve gotta figure out how to make it invisible through true vision too.”

“True vision…?” Blaber repeats.

LS raises his eyebrow, but doesn’t say anything for the moment as he snaps his fingers. The air in front of them shimmers, giving way to a house with a garden and a fence, just like Blaber described. “C’mon,” LS says at last. “Get inside so I can shield again. I can already feel the Void creatures coming.”

thank you for the ask!

[livikattt]

wip coping HARD bruh (how could i not, with a name like that?)

HAHA that was written shortly after worlds finals, which I think is a pretty good indication of what it's about before I even say. This is the sequel to mcdonalds fic, except by now, it would be the fourth mcdonalds fic if I were to publish it. which I won't.

“But still,” Scout says, a little more forcefully this time. Hell, there’s so much authority in his tone that even Faker straightens a bit. “You have to be careful what you wish for. Believe me, I would know.”

Showmaker’s jaw drops open. Scout’s bluntness is enough to have Chovy at least somewhat surprised, even if he has zero context. From his spot in the corner, Faker wheezes, throwing his head back to laugh so hard that he hits it on the wall.

Scout watches all of this happen with a familiar kind of growing concern, and for a moment, Showmaker half expects Flandre to appear out of nowhere and kidnap him just like last time. “Okay, why do I get the feeling that my wish is a secret to absolutely nobody?” He glares at Showmaker accusingly.

“I told you, I’m not a snitch,” Showmaker says quickly. “I wouldn’t tell anyone. Except for Canyon, but he doesn’t count.”

“Uh-huh. That totally explains why the greatest Summoner in the world is sitting in the corner laughing his ass off about it.”

basically: zeka hate club (none of them hate zeka but boy are they salty)

(except showmaker who is salty about chovy)

this fic concept is long dead, but fear not! the mcdonalds mid laners may still make an appearance together yet! just not... during ruination station. for obvious reasons.

thanks for the ask!

[livikattt]

bestie i think sps is going too far bc i was legit going to do this and then i couldn't find a prompt list without romantic ones (this is me begging you for the list PLEASE)

anyway jiejie and scout. 77. was going to go a more on-crack duo but i think we learned last time that when you have to spend the whole time explaining why they're in the same training room it's hard to do actual Plot. and, yk. besties. we need more content of them.

NAH IT STILL HAS THE ROMANCE ONES I JUST PRETEND THEY ARE NOT THERE

I—

this shit is actually scripted

ironically it's probably flandre who says that while they're on the Rift (because the schedule there is Wild). meiko has managed to fall asleep. jiejie, scout and flandre are trying very hard to do the same. viper is sitting on a rock.

that wasn't meant to be a wild rift joke

ofc scout immediately sits up

scout: at least you CAN sleep

jiejie, visibly exhausted: sleep is for the weak, couldn't be me

viper lets out a dramatic sigh. he has been attempting to meditate for the past 3 hours (because there's no fuckin way he's gonna SLEEP at NIGHT like a weirdo). his teammates mutter apologies and start whisper arguing instead

flandre: u CAN sleep u have jiejie

scout: ok but its not really MY sleep we're sharing

jiejie: dont—

scout: we literally share dreams

jiejie: DONT

scout: do u know how fucking weird his dreams are? every night is about human-sized gummy bears hunting us down in an abandoned amusement park or smth, not to mention the fuckin k-pop dreams like i CANT do u know what korean sounds like in his head??? its liter—

meiko, still dead asleep: Interrupt my sleep and I will interrupt your breathing.

meiko: unless you're viper

jiejie:

scout:

flandre:

viper:

meiko:

jiejie: in that case good night

he grabs onto scout and the two of them are out like a light

flandre is Confused

viper is chilling

that night scout dreams about losing to drx and laughs his ass off when he wakes up

[livikattt]

rip na part 2

ok here's part 2 of na getting shit on feat. viper pov because why tf not. summary: meiko pulls a pro gamer move.

anyway instead of talking about the chapter let me talk about little stupid things because this is like an onion and it has layers

Doublelift speaks for them this time. “I don’t know how caught up you are with history, Viego, but we don’t really do royalty here. Trust me, things did not go well for the last king we had.”

Shoutout King George one time. this could also be a MEAN ass reference to a certain king who fell from the Rift. or a reference to the Bjergerking, who Fucking Died. Or a reference to Regi, because,,,, reginald,,, king,,, you know...

and the chapter title, "lend me your heart and I'll break it", is from EDG's chosen theme song for Worlds 2021, Firestorm. I consider this to be a good choice not just because that version of EDG is split up now [pain] but because... you know... it's their song... and they really did kinda... break each other's hearts... in ppau at least. i mean no spoilers so i cant get into that but also like. heart. break. haha. viego. its back. haha. kill me.

[livikattt]

21, scout and jiejie

(pls get your sleep sdflgjkh—)

Anyway, I decided to Not Do That.

so basically jiejie is avoiding dealing with feelings (as usual) when he runs into scout with one foot literally out the door

he's understandably pissed that scout wasn't even planning on saying goodbye

don't ask me how scout's gonna sleep if he leaves edg

don't

because it's jiejie though he def pretends everything is fine until he just Can't and demands to know why scout wants to leave them

jiejie is really young in comparison to ppl like scout and meiko so he's not used to the roster changes yet and besides, saving someone's life kind of creates a personal bond

does he cry? yes. will he admit it? no.

if this was a fic it might not have a happy ending

was gonna turn this into a quick fic or something but I am running low on both time and braincells, so that'll have to wait.

[livikattt]

daily fun but useless ppau fact #11

Inspired by me STILL NOT HAVING POWER

although Danny and Upset can both face-tank a lightning bolt (I’m sorry for the video game terms I had to) there’s still a limit to how much electricity they can absorb before it becomes too much for them to handle. This could be an issue because magic gives zero fucks about the actual limitations of the human body (see Lee “Scout” Ye-chan) so their magic wouldn’t stop absorbing electricity just because it was damaging their bodies. The same goes for razork, although he’s not at as much risk since he doesn’t passively generate electricity.

Nuguri is another story and is completely immune to any electricity-based attacks. This wasn’t always the case, since he was once prone to hurting himself with his own magic.

I would imagine both Nuguri and Danny having Lichtenberg figures on their skin by the end of 2022—Nuguri from when he was originally struck, and Danny after channeling too much power to get EG to Worlds.

I don’t want to jinx it but I might have manifested the power coming back on 🙏🏻 I’m the greatest
