[mintjeru]

[accio-victuuri]

520/521 Fakes 📝

so the zsww fake house have posted 3 contributions and for archiving purposes, i will share them here. we can use some candy right about now. ✌🏼 treat these all as fanfic.

=====

Story #1: A sneaky movie date

WYB : I'm here

XZ : No rush

WYB : Let's go go go!

XZ : Still good on time

WYB : I saw we can only get down there after the bridge (yadda yadda yadda)

XZ : I know the way, there's a shortcut

WYB : Ge, you know so much.

XZ : Of course.

WYB: Oho

XZ : I said we can watch at home, you insisted to go out. So I asked XX to come here first..

WYB : Ah, next time I'll come first.

XZ : Don't, don't. You attract too much attention.

Oh I really hope they got a chance to watch a movie together or even just a meal outside. This is why most ( if not all ) turtles are happy when they were able to go outside China and feel “normal” for a moment. Maybe one day, they can both have a break outside.

I love how XZ knows “a shortcut” cause he is a “ninja” who i really think at this point knows how to dodge the media. Also asking someone to go there first. and him telling WYB that he attracts too much attention 😂😂😂 this reminds me that if you know WYB, all you need to look out for is Lele & YanYan, then that’s a sign that WYB is just around the corner. LOL.

=====

Story #2: Love transcends time

Love is the one thing we're capable of perceiving that transcends time and space.

WYB: zhan-ge, do you think you can really cross time?

XZ: I can.

WYB: How are you sure?

XZ: What if I have already crossed time to find you here?

WYB: Like 6 years older than me?

XZ: (speechless) A bit more romantic okay?

WYB: If we really have to cross, how about a half each?

XZ: You seem to have a plan

WYB: This way I can see you sooner.

The first part, the quote was submitted in english. I love this line cause it’s from ( my favorite ) the movie Interstellar. and I think it fits the subject of the conversation about time. It’s a common theme with wyb, how he always wants to make it seem like there is no gap between him and xz in terms of age.

This is so sweet. It’s sickening. I’m not even gonna be surprised if this kind of talk happened between them or even worse. 😂😂😂😂

=====

Story #3 A one-way conversation with XZ 📲

XZ: finished?

XZ: certainly

XZ: I will tell you there will be no surprises

XZ: don't

XZ: You come to the dark night to understand what to look forward to...

XZ: You made me say it 🙄

XZ: Then I won’t say it 😂

XZ: good good you are amazing

XZ: see it

XZ: Afraid of you bumping into it

XZ: good intentions

XZ: need somebody... ( this is in english )

XZ: listened

XZ: bang bang

XZ: Can't hit.

XZ: Then you come back and hit me 😂

XZ: Iron Man doesn't need to sleep, does he?

XZ: Then you sleep on it, I don't care

XZ: ✌🏼☺️

XZ: like to eat

XZ: ✌🏼🤓

XZ: replace it with a new one

XZ: 👋🏼👋🏼

The popular guess with this is that he was talking to WYB who was in LA at the time. and the whole “bumping into it” was a comment about his roller skating. Also the whole emoticons used with ✌🏼 is XZ imitating his ( WYB ) pose in his ig photo. 😂

The line XZ said where he later complained “you made me say it” to WYB was from a poem Shi Tiesheng wrote for his wife.

Finally, “replace it with a new one”. hmmmm. what could it be??? I hope not the phone cases. Or maybe they can, but still a subtle type of couple phone case.

-END.

[basil-appreciation-comic]

IMPORTANT UPDATE!!

the comic is cancelled. you probably already assumed that since i havent posted anything about it in a while but yeah the things dead now lol. mainly because i dont care much about omori anymore, the comic sucked, and it was too much effort. i feel kinda bad about leaving you guys in the dark for this long tho, so i thought id go ahead and include all the scrapped stuff for the comic that never got finished

while i was writing the comic i started a google doc that laid out ideas i had for future pages. heres that if you wanna know how the story ends

it was written over several months and (most) things are in order of where they go on the timeline not when i wrote them so it might be a little hard to follow

also some art i never posted

(at least i dont think ive posted the last one)

i quoted not liking this comic as one of the reasons i stopped so let me explain that with a list of things id change about this if i were to remake it (which i wont)

remove the swearing that was so stupid

make omori mute (and probably use sign language)

omori does not express fear or stress in-game, thats sunnys job. quit it

he also does not cry and generally shows emotions (even the big ones) in more subtle ways (which i think i was trying to shift towards later in the doc) idk why he was so emotional all the time

literally everything about how i portrayed omori actually that was all just awful

the panic attack scene is fucking embarrassing i have no clue what i was thinking. im so sorry for writing it like that i did 0 research beforehand

make it shorter why did i think that would work out

id probably just make it a fic, comics take way too much outta me compared to just writing things

it does not need a big epic ending and probably shouldve ended not long after they escaped black space

the romance is horrible but thats the foundation of the comic so idek what id do about that

stop making everyone talk like therapists 24/7

and yeah it has a lot of problems but i still do care about this due to the ammount of effort and love ive put into it, i just cant and dont want to continue it

so yeah thats where this story ends ig. i had a lot of fun along the way, and thank you so much for all the support. bigger thanks to that one sunflower discord server (if you came from there you know which one) for being my main motivation and support throughout this journey. sucks this comic never got to see its full potential but im relieved to finally lay it to rest. the blog will stay up for archival purposes but i will not continue the comic any further obviously. the ask box will remain open if you wanna say anything or if you have a question about the story or whatever. thanks for reading.

[mightbebobbie]

hi i love your art! so much!

i was wondering what advice would you give to someone who is thinking of starting posting fanart? would it be better to have separate accounts for your fanart and another for your personal projects/portfolio ?

if you read this thank you so much !

HII!!! THANK YOU SM!!

thats a very good question tbh, i've been posting my art online for a decade now, and it is very clear that fanart just. does a lot better in terms of numbers and all that. on platforms like twitter and ig, having two separate acc for original stuff and fanart stuff is smart due to how their algorithm works. HOWEVER! on tumblr, it doesn't really matter too much! tags are the primary way ppl find your stuff, then it's through reblogs. i post my original art and non-op art every once in a while on this acc (i barely draw anything else than op tho) and even though they get a lot less traction, i see that i reach other audiences, ppl outside of my chosen fandom. i say go for it, post both on the same acc!

if you plan on using tumblr as an actual portfolio though, make a separate acc for that, just for potential business purposes. if you want potential employers to see your blog, it could be smart to separate them! but, if you're just posting bc you wanna share your favorite sillies, there's always someone who will appreciate it on tumblr :'))

this is based on my own experiences though, and how i like to post might not work for you, but i say just give it a shot and try it out!

one thing though - do not get discouraged. i have made the mistake of rebranding myself so many times, just bc i felt like my old art blogs or twitter accounts or whatever didn't fit my "vibe" anymore. if you want to make a drastic change, archive or delete your posts and start anew. ppl tend to want to stick around!

No, Honey. I won't be coming.

There’s no point serving this with sugar on top.  My time with Måneskin has got to be the shortest-lived fandom tenancy I've ever held.  For two years, I managed to keep my footing amidst the ankle-dragging current of bullshit that surrounds this band, but I’m too old for this shit.

I mean that literally. I've been a record-collecting, trade mag-reading, concert-going music lover longer than many of the people in this fandom have been alive.  In my experience, fandom as a community activity hasn’t gotten better or more tolerant from decade to decade; social media simply amplifies its ugly side and allows it to get nasty exponentially faster.  I swear to god I’ve never blocked more blogs for more types of intolerance (ableism, ageism, racism, queer denial) than I have with this fandom for this band.  Even if I weren’t too old for this playground, I’d lose my desire to show up.

Sadly, the playground is where the band themselves also live.  While I continue to recognize their merit as creators, I can’t ignore that they’re at least partly responsible for the atmosphere around here.  They use social media, but with what ultimate result? (Not for nothing is the IG curated-lifestyle shtick blamed for consumer self-harm.) They’re photographed with a lot of uniformly attractive people in uniformly attractive places, and it’s all very aspirational, but is this actual thriving or just a movable photo shoot?  I feel like I’m watching their joie de vivre pale in real time, while they stand behind cardboard cutouts.  (Speaking of which, don’t get me started on their entourage.  If I see one more louche brat glaring murderously at the camera as if this privileged lifestyle paid for by other, vastly more talented people is somehow Badass™…) And last but not least, what the fuck has happened to their sound? What the fuck has happened to their message?

I will never stop loving the individual members of this band (particularly Ethan - bless and protect him always).  I will enjoy/criticize their music and applaud/question their decisions and behavior until I croak.  But when it comes to peripheral Må culture, I’m signing off.  I’m slowly removing Må posts from this blog and archiving them elsewhere.  I'm not so sure I'll be going to the MSG show, either. I paid for it already, they have my money, so maybe I will let my seat remain empty on purpose.

[firsttarotreader]

Know what’s funny? So since they were talking about the Teresa story on LSA I was like let me check it out and get some tea on the story cause apparently he was explicit and I got curious BUT the link I have is from when the weirdos were spreading it on Twitter as proof he’s gay and just realized they only archived the man story and I bet that’s on purpose cause if they were spreading the whole blog their argument would fall flat. They’re not even smart about this.. also, God I wish someone from LSA would let the new members of that thread know who rosti really is and how she’s mocking girls/women who thirst over P “since he’s gay” on other platforms & how she’s making multiple accounts to fight them there. That website doesn’t let me make an account cause I would put her in her place so good she’d see stars. I study law and I constantly catch on her inconsistencies & find it funny as hell how she tries to justify herself. So idk if you’ll post this but if you do: LSA members from the P thread, this is for you: rostijeras and rodiaxraz are the same person, and she’s literally mocking all of y’all on Tumblr for thirsting over Pedro because in her mind he’s gay so y’all are delusional. Her words, not mine. Her and her friends are always making new accounts trying to convince people from the general public that he’s gay.

I told you she does (her and her friends) that on every platform, I see the fake accounts on IG and other places, and this is why I don’t buy she was “impersonated” on Twitter when her account was suspended for biphobic tweets. Now let’s say Pedro was gay, what’s the problem of thirsting over him? So gay actors can’t have female fans? 🤔🤔 You see her problem is actually… insane jealousy of other women, even fans. 💁‍♀️💁‍♀️ Meanwhile, Pedro was going around writing a bisexual journal, sorry, a blog, years ago, and he’s constantly saying shit like this one about fucking everything in his imagination ☠️:

🤣🤣🤣🤣 So…

[nonadraws]

im alive(???)

decided to log in my tumblr after years of silence so hello im back!

quick reintroduction: im nona, 25, and i'm currently a freelance (and soon, full-time) illustrator based in manila! my main interests are tangled the series, the owl house, adventure time, and many more but just cartoons, cartoons that are musicals, and sapphic ships in general.

another really important thing you need to know: i really, REALLY like cassunzel. my IG & twitter is just full of fanart for them, so if you've never seen them yet, im just gonna repost a lot of my art from 2020 onwards so hold on to your butts

this blog will mainly be for art archiving purposes and not really for reblogging or interacting (ill still do, but not a priority), simply because i dont have the time & capacity to actually use tumblr the way i did years ago. if you wanna interact, my twitter, IG & discord are the best ways to do so.

my twitter is the most active but in case it falls apart, here are other places you can find me and my work (bold are most active):

twitter

instagram

bluesky

patreon (sfw & nsfw content)

ko-fi

inprnt  (currently archived)

itch io (nsfw content only)

portfolio

discord: nonadraws#2599

likes/follows/replies will come from nona-draws, just a dummy account bc my art blog is a sideblog. but i will also use that one to reblog my posts and other posts.

see you around!

[calvin-af-crone]

My Long Goodbye to Calvin Fandom

I devoted years of my life to Calvin Harris because I loved his music then I loved the man I thought he was. And I was entitled to that delusion because I paid in hours of research & study to write my History of Calvin Harris & watched every video & interview related to him on YouTube. I became convinced he was a flawed genius who might be slightly on the spectrum but his insecurities made him a humble nice guy. I felt that was a reasonable appraisal because I never idolized him. He's done some incredibly stupid stuff over the years & I called him out when they happened. But no one accused me of being a hater...

My reality got shattered by The Split™. There is no excuse for what he did to Aarika. NONE. We've talked that to death. I'm firm in my opinion & that's that. I had just barely recovered when I got the second shock—Vick! Then came the shock of her tabloid stories claiming they'd been dating for 5 months! Excuse me if I do not approve. I'm an Old w/ clearly defined ethical boundaries. Nice guys don't overlap relationships. That's cheating.

Since then I've been holding on in case I felt the need to say anything about FWBv2. I am so relieved that I like it. Even filtered thru my negative opinions of him as a person, I can still appreciate his musical genius. I'm very happy about that.

But that was not the end of being shocked. This happened on 1 June:

I thought Vick having nudes on the internet was a joke until I entered her name & the word "nudes" into Google Search. Oh wow! How dare I give away such deeply hidden search secrets? No one made a fuss when I joked about Calvin's dick pix on Twitter. Public information is public. There's no "weird conspiracy theories involved". Facts are facts.

Also, he's full of bullshit. Here's a screen shot of his Archive from this morning. Opting out of an Archive is the only way to "exclude" Google Search & he obviously still has one.

Then Supa did this:

Honestly. He's the one who was harassing me for posting stuff about Aarika. I switched that content to my side blog to avoid annoying him. Then he starts using trolls to trash talk about me & pulls this shit like he's a victim.

Wait!

You're wondering how I can see his Archive & can take screen shots of his content after he blocked me. First, Tumblr is dependent on Google Search to compile their Archive function. That's the down side of setting your blog to "private". Blocking only keeps me from directly visiting his blog or communicating w/ him. Second, years ago I made a bookmark to quickly access his Archive for reference. I was only slightly surprised that it still worked.

So yeah, all this time Anons were running back & forth telling tales, I could see them! And I saw how Supa responded by continuing to refer to me as crazy hater. That was his new theme & being allowed to drag me boosted his Anon content.

Then this happened on the morning of 7 July:

This Anon is outright trolling. I never "pretty much revealed" where they were because I never knew. All I ever said was Northern Italy, which doesn't exactly narrow down their location to a resort.

But here's the part that bothers me. Supa believed the troll! If I had gotten a similar message about him, I never would have believed it! Why should he think I would suddenly change the rules we all agreed upon years ago? Ah but, he was building up his theme & this Anon message served that purpose.

Then that evening this showed up...

Followed by realizing...

Calvin blocked me on IG!

Oddly, I wasn't shocked after a gang of people spent a month making me out to be a crazy hater. But why only IG? If he meant to exclude me, why wasn't I blocked on Twitter? But the strangest thing is: losing that access didn't interfere one bit w/ my blog's content. It was pretty remarkable to realize...

Calvin's IG was not a necessary source for my blog!

If Calvin did post something worth seeing, it got shared by half the people in his inner circle. Or I found it on TikTok AND Facebook! Most of my info comes from Google News Alerts.

You, too, can know as much as I did. The parameter that works is "Calvin Harris DJ". Otherwise, you get baseball players & criminals. I'm deleting my Alerts. If Calvin wants my attention, he'll have to do something that goes viral on Twitter or pops up under the Entertainment section of Google News.

I'm done w/ him & I'm done w/ this blog.

If you're interested in my personal journey, you know where to find me. If you absolutely need to talk to me do so via chat. Except for a small group of virtual friends, this chapter in my life is closed.

[dumbeggarchive]

Q: why is cyborg cookie your icon instead of leek A: tbh ive associated egg more with cyborg, and also because i feel like it

Q: whats the purpose of this account A: one is that i apprechiate archive accounts, two is that alot of people enjoyed their work and this is a way for them to enjoy their content again, three nostalgia? in a way

Q: *why* exactly are you looking for their videos A: i was featured in a collab, i remember how i bragged about it to some kid in 5th grade, remembered that and went "huh, i want to see that again" and spiraled

Q: have you known egg A: yeah, infact its *kinda* the reason why im looking for their videos, we havent talked in a long time though

Q: do you know where egg is A: no i dont, last i know egg was doing better since they left, and i dont think its in best taste to find them either way, leave them alone

Q: what are you using to find their stuff A: went through way back machine to find thumbnail / art, images to find some of the screenshots ive posted, thats it i think

Q: i have a video saved, how do i send it to you? A: either through the email in my about page, or putting it in google drive and sending the video over to me

Q: are you dumbegg? A: no im a 16 year old trying to survive highschool thats autistic about warrior cats, hope that helps 👍

Q: how long have you been into cookie run A: since 2019 (ironically enough cyborg menace was my first event lol), but i wasnt hyperfixed on it during 2020, basically it keeps comming back every other year (small interest though as of now)

Q: whats your main account? A: i might drop like a "hey this was me lol" but i wont really include my current usernames so most of what youll probably see are my old usernames ive used when i was 12

Q: why do you post stuff like thumbnails, art etc A: for thumbnails its so that it can be recogniseable and i try to collect descriptions and upload dates too to make it feel "complete"? i guess, as for art its the same as the videos people probably liked it and while not as important i thought itd be neat

Q: what if egg comes to talk to you A: if they tell me to take down everything ive found *i will*, its their right, they have deactivated their channel for a reason and i wont blame them if they feel that way, other then that depends on whats being said

Q: why do you add "leek cookie" to the tags sometimes A: to get more reach, listen i hate it just as much as you that theyre only recused to "haha leek simp" but thats litterly the only thing people would care about if you mention them, and algoritms and stuff ig, this only applies to some text posts though, if its like a video or something ill tag the characters that appear in it only (cyborg is sometimes added cuz its my layout and see Q 1)

Q: what the fuck are you talking about in your update videos A: im not a native english speaker and im terrible at wording, hope this also helps

Q: whats ur fave danganronpa character A: sonia nevermind 👍

This Instagram Mess Right Now... (Part 2)

Yep... we got a LOT from you guys.

Anon 1: I have an instinct that this contract is about to end. That comment was literally dodging the final bullet before the ultimate break up. I feel like they know pr walks & fans sight seeing don’t work. So it comes down to this. ITS THE FINAL COUNTDOWN TENETENET

I mean... while we didn’t expect a comment per se, we pretty much knew something more was going to happen. One big clue was that she finally admitted via the location on her IG that she’s in the US like we knew she was for literally the past month now. So yeah... not a surprise SOMETHING was going to come up. She needs more attention she clearly wasn’t getting enough of.

Anon 2:  Omg this absolutely falls in line with the theory of whenever he shows another woman attention publicly she immediately has to have a follow up. He posts about his friend and she responds with a throwback pic, boom CB jumps into the mix. The only difference is, she didn’t have any other archived B&W photos for him to like so she brought the mess to his page to lay claim on him. Y’all exposed her methods and we are seeing it in real time.

Glad to be of service! But on a more serious note, it’s just amazing how many of you guys in the Inbox aren’t freaking out about any of this. If anything you guys are more like “what is this bullshit again...” and “could you BE more obvious?” The other thing also is that it’s honestly great not feeling like Gemini and I are alone thinking there’s just some fishy stuff going on when we have so many of you out there following us! We ALL just need to hang on and we can make it together!

Anon 3:  Ngl this kinda makes me wish i had social media. I really want to see the comments.

Ha. I mean you COULD make a dummy account for the sole purpose of accessing stuff to see. But at times it’s honestly not worth the headache. Once it’s become clear this bullshit is finally over I’m not following this chick anymore. I mean me following her in the first place is so I and Gemini can more easily keep up with what attention grabbing nonsense she’s doing this time. Also it’s easier to see and notice when she like or comment on things because the quirky thing about the phone app is that you see accounts you follow easily and more noticeably at the top of the feed. It seems like possibly she’s targeting people who are following her including us Seb fans who are mostly hate following or “spying” on her SM activities.

Anon 4:  You could kinda tell this was a spur of the moment decision on her end. Because if Sebastian had known she was going to do it he would've limited his comments to prep for it. Bad move for Ale though. She should've thought this through.

Like I just wrote on the previous Answer, I’m starting to wonder if this is her being aware that the main people paying attention to her is HIS fans and she’s aiming some of this at us as a collective to make her a 15 minute hot topic before we get bored after about 6 hours and ignore her until her next act of desperation for relevancy.

Anon 5:  She could have played this his way and comment "Eres mi rockero más hermoso" but she had to go to the generic-ass route and say "My rockstar", and she didn't even put a heart emoji! Such a missed opportunity, Alejandra. Jokes aside, don't forget the MTV Movie Awards are today, so if he wins he's gonna get a lot of traffic on his instagram, so this is a win-win situation for them

Yeah I can’t deny there’s a possibility THIS is her attention grabbing stunt because of the MTV awards. I mean there are so many convenient reasons for her to do this.

[passable-talent]

the jedi code.... isn’t bad, but could be better. 

ok here we go! this post didnt get much attention but @fastidious-and-a-mess asked for the essay and what grace wants she gets (this is a long one grace i totally understand if u dont have the energy to read it)

honestly, buckle up. I’m about to sound a little too much like Anakin in my take of the code and what the order should be. im well aware i could pretty easily fall prey to palpatine if he wanted to get me to the dark side. thats how it B sometimes. here are my opinions anyway.

So, first, the Jedi Code as it is recited and held by jedi knights and masters is as follows:

There is no emotion, there is peace. // There is no ignorance, there is knowledge. // There is no passion, there is serenity. // There is no chaos, there is harmony. // There is no death, there is the Force. 

Okay, so, the most glaring issue with all of that is of course that “only Sith deal in absolutes.” However there are plenty of glaring holes in that even that statement (would that statement itself not be an absolute? why then does Yoda say ‘do or do not, there is no try’ which is an absolute?) so we can ignore that . It’s a,, light tick mark in the ‘con’ column, though. 

As I’ve mentioned in a fic a while ago, I have an issue with all of those mantras, which is that they only serve a monk/meditator/philosopher. it will absolutely not guide a warrior- a jedi who is meant to serve in the clone wars, who is meant to do battle to keep peace, who is meant to destroy the sith. One could argue that a jedi must do all of this battle without emotion, passion, chaos, but i counter this- just because you don’t act on it doesn’t mean it isn’t there. 

Honestly, though, my main point in this is not suggesting that the Jedi Code is bad, because it isn’t, necessarily.... my main issue is that the Youngling Jedi Code is LEAGUES better. 

This code is given to Younglings, who are not yet mature enough to accept the absolutes (!!!) of the Jedi code, and who are not yet ready to detach themselves from emotion (such detachment is another issue i have with the Order, i talk about it a little below). The youngling code is as follows:

Emotion, yet peace. // Ignorance, yet knowledge. // Passion, yet serenity. // Chaos, yet harmony. // Death, yet the Force.

I see the purpose in this code- young padawans who aren’t quite ready to understand that the dead live on in the Force, or who aren’t ready to live without anger, or who still posses some of the ignorance of youth. i see what they’re going for.

but i really do think it’s much more than that. 

When I read that code (and that is most certainly the one that i would live by), i hear this:

You feel emotion, and yet you find peace. 

You admit your ignorance, and yet posses knowledge.

You live with your passion, and through it find serenity.

You are surrounded by chaos, but you feel harmony. 

There is death, yet, there is the Force. 

Here’s what I’m trying to say, gals and gays: The Order is wrong to suppress and ignore human emotion. doing so leads to a slew of mental health issues that lead to some very major problems by the name of Anakin Skywalker (if you would like an example). 

It is wrong and frankly silly to claim that a jedi master cannot feel emotion, cannot be ignorant, cannot have passion, cannot feel chaos, cannot die. Yoda was ignorant of the rise of the sith, Obi-Wan Kenobi felt all the emotion, Mace Windu was extremely passionate, Luke Skywalker experienced so much chaos, and Anakin Skywalker died long before his death. It is foolish and arrogant to claim that such things are not of the Jedi. 

So, instead, turn to what you teach your children, Jedi: That these things can be overcome, can be weighted and yet acted against. Personally, i think there is so much more power to a Jedi who feels inconsolable grief and rage and yet acts with a clear, peaceful mind. As Kenobi did, when he avenged his master, and killed maul. I think there is much more power to knowing that you can be wrong, you can have gaps in your knowledge, and you can still be a very wise Jedi- like Yoda, welcoming the possibility that there were missing planets in the Archives. 

To me, it is easy to ignore anger, chaos, ignorance, passion. But it leads to a Jedi too arrogant to sense the rise of the dark side. It leads to a Jedi incapable of doing what’s right out of righteous anger and passion, instead letting darkness rise through inaction, waiting for the senate to make a decision.

It is much harder to feel them, and let them pass, and act with a level head. It is much harder to resist the dark side than to ignore it all together. You can succeed at one. The other, you cannot. Darkness will always be there- you cannot ignore it, lest you allow it to fester. racism analogy 

which is harder, and leads to a stronger mind: never ever ever buying or even looking at a donut, or buying a dozen for your roommates and never eating one?

Emotion, yet peace. // Ignorance, yet knowledge. // Passion, yet serenity. // Chaos, yet harmony. // Death, yet the Force.

okay, palpatine, i’ve lost faith in the jedi order. if you’re gonna recruit me, now is a good time ig. i wanna see ani

Nektanns

           (Not to be confused with the Skakdi Warlord of the same name, who was specificially named after these terrifying war machines.)

           Nektanns are a deceptively simple design, yet incredibly terrifying in execution. What they lack in the general eccentricities, quirks, and gimmicks of other infamous war machines and weapons of Xia’s industries, they make up for in one vital asset; Pure precision. Armed with advanced, state-of-the-art AI, each Nektann is essentially equipped with a powerful aim-bot that can deduce and calculate the movements and trajectory of its targets in a split-second, before firing a powerful and precise laser with the same level of skill as a trained sniper. Unlike a living and breathing sniper however, Nektanns are always cold, precise, and methodical. Every shot they fire is meant to count, no lasers are wasted as they frequently aim for weak points.

           Nektanns take the simplistic shape of a sphere, consisting of an upper and lower half. The lower-half has four mechanical legs protruding from the sides, stubby yet effective in transporting the machine at a reasonable speed. The upper half of a Nektann has four laser-cannons equally distributed around its perimeter. Each cannon can swivel around, enabling a Nektann to criss-cross fire with two of its lasers; Never three, and only four when a target is directly above the Nektann. Above the cannons is a ring-visor continuously built around the Nektann’s perimeter, enabling constant, 360-degree vision.

           A Nektann’s upper half can rotate and swivel in rapid yet precise movements, capable of turning a full 360 degrees. To minimize such movement (which would take up a precious split-second to re-orient a cannon to move a target within range), multiple cannons were installed instead of just one, precisely for this purpose. Upon detecting any number of hostile intruders or targets, the Nektann’s upper-half accordingly swivels and reorients its cannons as each one individually swivels around, locks onto an enemy, and fires. A Nektann can fire up to four lasers at once- But the more lasers it fires at a time, the weaker they are. As a result, a Nektann may choose to rapidly fire between each laser, fire two on one side, and then the other two, etc. Nektanns are, in essence, the ultimate turret due to their incredible accuracy.

           Immobile Nektanns function as traditional, stationary turrets. Rooted into the ground as a dome above a miniature tower, Fixed Nektanns are typically connected to a larger energy source, enabling the usage of far more powerful and destructive lasers. Additionally, they are equipped with an additional row of cannons above their primary four, consisting of three; And a final one sticking directly off the top of the Nektann. Like their Mobile brethren, the Fixed Nektann can divert power and divide it across its multiple cannons, or focus it into fewer ones; However, it better compensates with access to a more proficient energy-source.

           The earliest models of Nektann used to have only one turret, only for the numbers to increase from two, to three, and finally four. Initially, Nektanns only came in the Fixed variety; But as technology and efficient designs improved, eventually the Mobile variant was brought into the picture. Mobile Nektanns initially had longer, spindly legs that curved upwards before bending down; This led to an initial, hilarious issue of the legs occasionally getting in the way of a cannon and being shot off.

          Engineers immediately remedied this error by programming subsequent Nektanns to avoid firing whenever their legs got in the way; But just as quickly afterwards, someone suggested bypassing the issue altogether, by redesigning the legs so they wouldn’t go above the Nektann’s ‘equator’. The solution was happily and readily implemented, to the dismay of anyone who had to deal with these horrifying machines.

          Similarly, the efficiency and accuracy of Nektann AI has increased over time, resulting in faster processing power, better aim, split-second calculations of target trajectories and paths, etc. Nektanns gained the ability to fire from multiple cannons, before all four; And their original, Fixed predecessors were improved upon.

           Despite their devastating speed and accuracy, the Nektann is thankfully not invincible. The Mobile variant only has four cannons, and thus can only focus on four targets at a time; Groups of enemies above this number can cleverly outmaneuver the Nektann by hiding behind cover while constantly moving back and forth to disorient the machine’s programming. Like any AI, it is also not perfect, and liable to mistakes in programming, or choosing the most likely option only to fail due to bad luck. A Nektann may predict a target to head one way, only for them to suddenly take a different path, either by their own volition or even from accidentally tripping. Additionally, their lasers, while powerful, can’t penetrate and completely destroy all obstacles. Generally speaking, the smaller and faster the target, the more likely the Nektann is to miss.

           Fixed Nektanns bypass most of these issues thanks to their additional cannons and stronge fire-power, but unfortunately they can’t move around. Their fixed-position and reliance on underground cables connecting them to other energy-sources can make them vulnerable to subterranean sabotage as well. Some models of Fixed Nektann run on an independent power source, enabling them to bypass this weakness; But at the cost of fire-power that, while more powerful than that of its Mobile variety, is weaker than the typical Fixed Nektann.

           Due to the incredibly complex and advanced programming behind each Nektann, the prices for models are incredibly high, rivalled by those of Exo-Toa. Whenever a Nektann is spotted, be it on the Zakaz battlefield, or as a security machine in other districts of Xia, terror will often strike the hearts of its potential targets. Mobile Nektanns can support an entire squad, or else operate independently; They can be programmed to deliberately ignore allies, and in some cases, shoot through them anyway if a target is right behind. Nektanns make for incredible guard, turrets, and sentries, and have been employed by multiple organizations to safe-guard key areas across Xia.

          For example, the Archives’ above-ground entrance is guarded by a number of Super Nektanns; A more armored, efficient, and powerful variety of Nektann, custom-made. These Super Nektanns have AI that can snipe a scurrying rat from a distance, with lasers powerful enough to sear through most metal. Warden Rorze has even considered commissioning models of Super Nektann that could even incorporate Exo-Toa technology; And after the Okotan Expedition’s legendary break-in and retrieval of the Fragment of Earth, Rorze has begun to arrange deals with Vortixx Industries.

           Nektanns are feared, legendary, and reputable on the battlefields of Zakaz. For their reputation, the eventual Skakdi warlord Nektann was named after these terrifying machines. They have seen increased production in use as of Xian-Okotan War, being utilized en masse by the Barraki to overwhelm the Okotan Alliance and gain ground in their invasions, while safe-guarding important locations; Especially from Okotans, Xian rebels, and Order of Mata Nui agents as well.

          The Brotherhood of Makuta has also begun to make use of a few models, and Makuta may even have access to the safely-guarded plans and schematics behind the Nektann AI… Despite reservations by some, both the Okotan Alliance and Xian Rebellion have taken to uiziling Nektanns as well; However, the Barraki control the primary sources for these machines, as well as key manufacturing centers in Artidax and Tametru- Thereby allowing them to own the largest army of Nektanns in existence.  

-

           (Okay, I’m going to be level here; These things are basically IG-11 from The Mandalorian, but orb-shaped and more akin to their appearance in the Voya Nui Online Game. The earliest models looked nearly identical to their G1 counterparts, hence the detail of legs having once gotten in the way of lasers. As of now, I’m retconning the description for Nektanns that I had with my Xia weaponry post, and this is the official one; No more self-repairing abilities, alas!

And similarly, the Nektanns are no longer mass-swarm robots as initially envisioned in RaE, but more akin to select, specialized units that make an occasional appearance on the battlefield. They also don’t self-repair anymore; I’m thinking of isolating this feature as an entirely separate Xian invention, specifically individual swarms of nano-machines that can be assigned to various machines to ‘repair’ them everytime damage is taken.)

Story about Weight Loss

Hiro: Anyway, this has no relation (to the acoustic session) whatsoever, but didn’t I get super thin?

Kid’z: You did! Tell us more! You really did lose weight! Nob too!

Hiro: We declared during Hall Tour that we’d lose weight within one month, but we couldn’t do it. We made a promise though, didn’t we? I did my very best, you know?? I seriously gave it all I got!!

Kid’z: I’ve been avoiding carbs for a long time, and even tried diligently apportioning my meals and stuff like that. But before I knew it, I was already eating curry!

Crowd: *laughs*

Fan: How much weight did you lose?

Hiro: I dropped 6 kg.

Crowd: Ohhh! *claps*

Kid’z: That’s a lot!

Hiro: Amazing, right? On the contrary, I’ve always been fat.

Kid’z: No, seriously.

Hiro: I lost weight so that I can get fat again. I want to get fat so I lose weight. When I’ve lost weight, I’ll gain weight again. It’s a never ending cycle.

Kid’z: Don’t leave it as it is!

Hiro: I get told that all the time. I mean, I’m gonna gain weight before METROCK again anyway.

Kid’z: Isn’t METROCK great though?

Hiro: Can I say this? Why do they hold festivals at such a season?

Kid’z: Because (the weather) is cool? I once thought Doraemon was the one singing.

Hiro: Who you calling 123 cm tall?

Kid’z: Nobita-kun.

Hiro: I’m not the blue geezer.

Kid’z: He isn’t a geezer!

Hiro: He’s a geezer, isn’t he?

Crowd: *laughs*

Hiro: Generally, we release a CD around spring or summer. Then we start tour around autumn, right? From the beginning of fall, Hiroki starts losing weight. Little by little. Then, year end starts rolling in. By the end of the year, tour ends, it becomes production season, and eating Hiroki comes out. Hiroki enters hibernation, just like any other large mammal.

Kid’z: You need to stock up, right?

Hiro: Yep, so I can get through winter. Then it becomes spring again. METROCK is waiting for me, but I don’t want stocked-weight-from-hibernation-at-its-max Hiroki to be exposed there! Why do I keep getting told I got fatter or thinner every time?! Leave me alone!!!

Kid’z: But you did your best, right?

Hiro: ...Yep.

Kid’z: Good job.

Crowd: *claps*

Kid’z: How about Nob? How are you doing?

Nob: I lost 5 kg.

Hiro: You lost weight only because you were sick, right?

Kid’z: Because his tonsils were taken out.

Nob: I haven’t gotten my sense of taste back up until now.

Hiro: Don’t let yourself lose one of your most important senses!

Nob: Some time ago I had pickles and it was the best.

Hiro: What an old man.

Story about Poor Kid’z (figuratively and literally)

Kid’z: This story has no relation to anything we’ve talked about so far, but you (Hiro) started an IG account, right? During Hall Tour. Since then, you did a lot of things to me, like that game with the paper cups and the 10,000 yen you put inside one of them, which I played along with having good intentions in mind. I chose the right cup and you gave me the bill, but you revealed that there was 100,000 yen in the other cups.

Hiro: Yep.

Kid’z: ...I tried that with a friend. I was caught. 100,000 yen.

Hiro: Eh?? They made a winning move, huh.

Kid’z: I was like, “Oh no, what should I do?? Should I take it back?” I wanted to be able to fool someone, to get a taste of how it feels! So I started turning the cups around thinking I could do it like you did. When it was time for them to pick, my friend chose a different cup, and in my head I was all, “No no no, not that!!!” and eventually they got it...

Hiro: That person probably saw my IG post and thought you were an idiot.

Thoughts on Marriage

After Love Letter, Hiro and Kid'z talked about being excited yet nervous to play the next song, since it's been a while since they last played it.

Kid’z: Speaking of which, the person beside me seems to be nervous!!

Nob: *rubbing his palms on his pants*

Kid’z: Can I do a hand check? *touches Nob's palm* It's all sticky!

Hiro: Eh? You're scared of making a miss again? Like in Yokoari? Higedan. Ah! Speaking of which, Satoshi-kun got married! Congratulations!

H&K: *congratulate Nob*

Hiro: Eh? Official?

Kid’z: This is Unofficial.

Hiro: Ah, sorry. Unofficial. He got married, huh... There's been a crazy marriage rush recently... 

Kid’z: Yeah, it's been all over LINE NEWS lately.

Hiro: Right. back number, Higedan, Maple Chogokin.

Kid’z: You're mean for putting Maple Chogokin as last!

Hiro: No no no. *laughs* The marriage rush is insane, right... Right... Insane right... 

Fan: Do you want to get married?

Hiro: ...I don't wanna get married. 

Crowd: Eh???

Hiro: Do you? Someday, I assume. As for me, I don't wanna get married at all. 

Kid’z: *in a teasing tone* Is it because you don't have a partner?

Hiro: *taunting tone* Ha? Ha? Ha? What the hell are you saying, you.

Kid’z: Ah, sorry we had a little quarrel.

Hiro: Let's get a divorce first!

Kid’z: What the hell is this breakup!

Poor Nob

Photo by Takashi Konuma | Taken from Hiro’s IG post

Hiro: Anyway, are we good? You (Nob) still seem nervous. How are his fingers?

Kid’z: They're tender. 

Hiro: If I had to play it in a room like this, I'd be pissed.

Nob: *strums a tune*

Kid’z: It's that song!! It's definitely that song, right? Can you do it, Nob bear? Are you alright? You practiced last night without sleeping.

Kid’z: Give him your support.

Crowd: Cute!! You can do it!!!

Kid’z: The pressure on you is rising, huh.

Hiro: *in an old man voice* You can do it! You can do it! You can do it!

Kid’z: Eh? What was that voice? Father?

Hiro: *taunting tone* Ha? What the hell are you saying. Who you calling father, come home and I'll kill you.

Kid’z: Ah, sorry. Father, I apologize.

Hiro: to Nob You okay? Dududadududa~ (T/N: the intro of LET IT DIE) The last song for the acoustic session. Please listen, LET IT DIE.

Then, Hiro crouched down from his seat and kneeled, looked at Nob closely, and so did Kid’z. Nob stared back, aced the dududadududa intro and everybody clapped for him! However, Nob made a mistake towards the very end, playing the last string of notes twice. When they were walking back to the main stage, Hiro put his arm around Nob and teased in a mocking tone, "Hey, in LET IT DIE, in LET IT DIE, hey, during the acoustic set, hey, I was satisfied with the beginning, but in the middle of the song, hey, you made a mistake, right? Even if you were doing so well." When they got back to the main stage, Nob bowed down in apology.

Weight of my pride MC

Hiro: Your voice has been heard! There were a lot of requests for PTP, and in my heart, PTP is my eternal hero. It shouldn't be just us; so that he can also hear your voices, shout as loud as you can Kobe!!! Next song is called Weight of my pride!

Check out their version of the performance at Saitama Super Arena here:

モノクロエフェクター MC

Hiro: How are we doing Kobe? I thought everyone in Kobe could handle it, you know? Aren't y'all drinking too much milk tea? Your nipples are gonna become tapioca if you drink too much milk tea, you know? Well, if you're sure you're not drinking too much then you should be able to handle it, so let's all dance together!!

Reviver MC

Hiro: Thank you so much for today! It's been a great day, I'm really grateful. I've always been alone. I've lost so many people I didn't want to lose, and I've let go of things I didn't want to part with many times. I might not be able to change the world with music, but because of music, I met the members, I met all of you, and it made me think that my life was pretty impressive. I want to believe it was my destiny to meet all of you here tonight, so let's keep walking together Kobe!!!

With You MC

Hiro: Thank you so much for today, Kobe!!! After this, the tour will be ending soon. Thinking about it makes me sad, but knowing that you will all be supporting us next year, and the year after that, and the year after that, and even after 10 years makes me feel very grateful. But there's one thing I want to say before today ends: Kobe, I love you!!!

THE OVER MC

Hiro: How was it? MFS' UVERworld. Did I become Hiroki∞? This song was really difficult. The way the lyrics jump, especially during the part before the last chorus.

Kid’z: I didn't learn that note.

Hiro: *emphasizes the difficult enunciation of a line from the song* Unbelievable, I had a hard time remembering it.

Kid’z: The instruments were tough, too. Even Nob was complaining, there were notes he had never seen before.

Hiro: I couldn't match the timing of the lyrics either. I had to enter at an exact time, 3 characters in one second!! If MFS were to do it, we'd go with a lower key.

Kid’z: You say MFS but it's your key, right? Your voice is hella loud you know.

Hiro: It's because if I'm alone, then it's not MFS.

Kid’z: Nah, we were able to match the key, but only you can sing it that high, right? (T/N: They seemed to have raised the key by 2 octaves)

Hiro: You guys thought the cover song was only Weight of my pride, didn't you? You're wrong! We did UVERworld but we received many other requests. There were a lot of PTP songs in the tags. Who else was it... Sheena Ringo, Oral, and King Gnu too.

Kid’z: Weirdly enough, B'z was highly requested too. 

Hiro: It'd be weird if I sang their songs.

Crowd: Sing! Sing! Sing!

Hiro: 萎えぇぇ！萎えぇぇ！萎えぇぇぇぇー (T/N: Nae is Japanese slang that roughly translates to “no” or “ugh” in this context) Wait a minute. Change the song.

Kid’z: *offended tone* Huh?

Hiro: Well then, sing a line that starts with A!

Hiro: You're an Ultra Soul Idiot. Do you know any other song apart from Ultra Soul?

Kid’z: Of course I do! Don't you? All of you? I love them more than anyone else, I'm even in the fanclub! こいよ！！

Kid’z: *sings a B'z line that starts with A*

Hiro: Gi!

Kid’z: Gi? *sings a line that starts with Gi* I told you, I can do anything.

Teru: Yu!

Kid’z: Yu? YUME JANAI ARE MO KORE MO SONO TE DE DOA MO AKEMASHOU, SHUKUFUKU GA HOSHII NARA KANASHIMI O SHIRI HITORI DE NAKIMASHOU, SOSHITE KAGAYAKU ULTRA SOUL!

Crowd: HEY!!!

Hiro: Oi, Teruki!! Why did you say "yu"?! You should've let him build up first before making him sing "yu"!! It was too early to make him sing that as the third song!

Kid’z: It felt really good!!

Hiro: Why did you say "yu" so quickly?!

Teru: I just made a mistake.

Hiro: Don't be an airhead!!

Kid’z: I'm really grateful!

Nob’s Redemption Arc

After their UVERworld cover, Hiro asked the audience what they should do next. The crowd started screaming different songs, to which Hiro said "I'm seriously fine with anything." Nob suddenly played the first three notes of LET IT DIE, to which Hiro said, "Ah, from earlier?" Kid'z said, "He made a mistake a while ago, so let's give him another chance." Then Nob started practicing. The crowd screamed, "You can do it!!!" then Nob walked towards the center stage and did a moonwalk. Hiro was all, "You can't do it, you're not Michael Jackson!" then sang a MJ line and howled his signature "Woo!"

Final MC

Hiro: Today was truly an amazing day, thank you all so much. We had such an intense gathering here at Kobe World Memorial Hall. The first Coming Kobe was also held here. We have so, so, so many memories here in this place. Right now, we're still on our way to reaching our dream. From hereon, we don't know if we could make such a big dream come true. We still have a long way there, but we're doing our best every year, making music for everyone and visiting various places as well. Next year, and the year after that, and even after 10 years, it would be nice if we could all make amazing memories together. Thank you so much! We're definitely coming back, Kobe!!
