73 Yards in a nutshell

[sleepis4theweak]

Hey! For sure. Alright so with that AU, it would probably be focusing mostly on the teeny tiny one. Maybe Splinter didn't train them all that well cause he doesn't think they need to be out (Because of how tiny they are)

though it all really depends on which one wins lol.

If Donnie wins, I picture he has his bo staff and runs, then it stabs into the ground and flings him cause of how tiny he is hehe.

but Michelangelo would make sense as well. So yeah! Depending on who wins is how different the story will/can go (plus I would need to figure out what type of turtles the others are lol)

I thought it would be funny to make one of them a Aldabra Giant Tortoise

make one very tiny and the other real big

Flattened Musk Turtles are so cute, so I might make one of them one of them.

I like this picture of a Leopard Tortoise. Doing a big steppy.

-------------------------------------------

Another AU I thought about was making it so the turtles were all rare types and it was pretty much just the dude who mutated them wanted the rarest turtles lol.

But I have too many ideas already.

OOOOOOOO

I LOVE ALL OF THESE CHOICES!!!

Also I love the mental image of Donnie just... launching himself into air with his staff hehe...

I know its been a while since you sent this ask (sorry!)... have you made any decisions since then? :0

[corvuscorona]

hey. hey. hey. hey. hey so in ff16 they give you a flash step that goes forward but when you're a big monster (happens for setpiece boss fights only) they give you a roller skating move that goes sideways instead. but then there's a fight where they give your monster form a forwards flash step too.

and IN THAT SAME BOSS FIGHT, you need to do it Twice in a row to close the distance between "outside the big AOE attack" and "guy you need to punch after he does the AOE" & this sums up basically everything you need to know about how AGGRESSIVELY MEDIOCRE the combat really is in this game.

anybody who tells you it's good is either lying or is remembering 1 of like 2 and a half really nicely-tuned fights, one of which was optional. and the health bars were still too fucking stubborn in all of them.

Can tadc have victorian goth witch ? Her favourite film probably would be Love Witch...

Her dress and her witch hat has spider and siper webs accessory..

And calls them all with a "darling" nickname in a platonic way and kinda she is like a rich aunt to them and she is a good listener and has dark humor too

İ loved your blog btw

⛧°。⋆TADC x witchy!reader⋆。°⛧

Giggles this is my first anon request

As a witch, this made me so happy to get! I love that movie so much omg. And thank you cutie💕

If you’d like a part two let me know<3

Warnings: implied platonic, but could be seen as romantic

Characters: Caine, Gangle, Kinger

now playing…

Caine

- Lets be honest, he’s not going to approve of your choice in movies. The Love Witch isn’t exactly PG… but he’ll let you watch Sabrina The Teenage Witch! That’s close enough, right—?

- He might let you tone down the colours of your bedroom, but doesn’t let you change it to dark colours like black, sadly. Still have to keep the circus theme!

- Caine likes your style but would try to coax you to wear something more colourful. Maybe try a bright yellow! Or a neon pink! No? Oh well, maybe next time (it won’t work next time either).

- Calls you nicknames right back! A shortened version of your name, “dear,” or maybe “toots.” Gets a bit more peppy-in-his-steppy when you call him something when he’s not expecting it.

- Appreciates when you listen to the other circus members issues. It means less abstractions, which means less work for him… but really, he does find it quite helpful and sweet!

- Does not, however, appreciate your sense of humour. Will probably slap a censor on you when he thinks you’re being ”inappropriate” so you’ll have to tone it down, at least around him.

Gangle

- She’s attached to you, honestly. She just gets so happy and giddy when you call her “darling.” Depending on her mask, she might even give you a small nickname back. She’s be very shy about it, though…

- Adores your style even though she wouldn’t personally wear it. It just looks so good on you, probably not on her, though. She’s feel very flattered if you offered to dress her up, or even in the real world AU do her makeup. She’d probably let you but don’t go to heavy on everything. And it’s not staying on for a long time. She doesn’t like to feel very confined.

- Gangle will vent to you if you let her. If she’s feeling sad, she’ll seek you out to help her. She’ll either want comfort or light advice, so ask her beforehand.

- She finds 1/2 your humour hilarious and the other 1/2 kind of spooky… it really depends on her mask that day. She might make jokes with you or she might just give you a “😨” kind of look, LMAO😭

- Might watch movies with you, but she’ll cling to your arm when scary parts pop up. It’s not that she doesn’t like the movies or shows, it just creeps her out a little.

Kinger

- He’s a little afraid of you at first. He thinks you’ll curse him or something. He gets used to you, but sometimes he’ll scream and run away when you just appear there (He didn’t see you walk in).

- Once you’re there for a couple digital months he gets much more comfortable and even invites you in his pillow fort! Please say yes, it’ll make him so happy. Speaking of activities, he would also ask to find insects with you, seeing how you seem to like spiders. He probably thought you had real spiders on your clothes before he realized they were just decoration.

- Bless his soul, he doesn’t understand your humour. He asks about your jokes every time, and at this point you just pat him on the head and tell him not to worry about it.

- He likes to rant to you about anything. Sometimes it doesn’t even make sense, but you still listen. It makes him really excited to talk about how he once saw a game show that starred dogs in his dreams. And he also likes to vent, but it ends up in him talking about his next grand pillow fort..

- He giggles slightly when you call him petnames. If he had feet, they would be kicking. He probably doesn’t call you anything back, but he appreciates it! If he does call you something, it’s “dear.”

Alleged February 2022 breakup timeline

A new anon had questions about the alleged breakup in February 2022. I directed her to the Lazy Anon list but apparently that wasn't extensively covered besides the facts MG seen in Brazil this date, back in Monaco this date. So I went hunting. Obviously with Steppy gone it's a bit more complicated but here's things that happened around the time I didn't even remember. I haven't looked/read through the list thoroughly since they were originally posted. Only when I needed to look up for a specific date for a post myself.

18/01 people find out about MG's ex AN and that she is liking all his posts even though she's not following him

19/01 MG says haters use her social media to hate so from now on will only post on closed friends and her private account

20/01 that didn't take long. Posted a picture with Mini MG and the cat.

21/01 MG unlikes all the AN posts. An account named mysticalkelly posts about it. He sees their story and refollows MG.

23/01 Deuxmoi allegedly posted about it but I can't find the actual post itself. The twitter account that stated in December 2021 to have seen MG very intimate with a mystery man came back and said the mystery man looks a lot like AN. Mysticalkelly was suspended.

24/01 Max and MG fly to Austria together where he has to do some Redbull PR. Over the next week "anons" defend MG like crazy on tumblr and IG. Some messages sound suspiciously like MG herself.

31/01 oh look pregnancy rumors started and MG posts cryptic shit again.

04/02 over the past days "Max" went on a blocking spree and MG responded in DM he is furious this needs to stop. Minion army activated and bully a lot of anti accounts

11/02 another cryptic message. Kellyteaquette gets suspended. Rumor about pregnancy and end of. Pinterest handholding picture gate. Allegedly MG posted a picture (that should be in the Lazy list or Flower has for sure talked about it. But it was found on Pinterest and it's not known if this was actually posted and quickly deleted by MG or made up [by whom?]) But MG had a reason to call out fake things. This reminds me a lot of the Natty situation after Monaco GP 2024 when old things that could be argued as fake (still believe it's true) was reshared for her to claim AI fake news but not address real gossip. February 11th 2022 was definitely a very busy day.

12/02 Serendipity exposed. What was a theory for a long time finally gets exposed in a long 3 part series. This was posted so many times I won't bother to repost it.

14/02 Valentine's day and there's reason to believe the bouquet she posted was from 2021

16/02 Anti accounts get a lot of Max has always loved her and chased her since he was very young messages. As proof it says the old likes on her posts. One anon claimed that these likes on old pictures are new because they've checked after the first rumors of them in 2020 aka Serendipity happened and at that time in October/November 2020 he did not have a like on old MG posts from 2016.

21/02 MG deleted 200 posts mostly with Kvyat from her IG and she unfollowed him. Do we know when Kvyat started dating again. Is it possible he got a girlfriend on February 21st 2022? Or is that when Max and her allegedly broke up?

23 to 26/02 Preseason testing in Barcelona. No MG and somebody who claimed to be there allegedly overheard Max on the phone.

27/02 MG shows up in Brazil out of the blue. Breakup rumors in Brasilia.

28/02 MG back liking AN posts

02/03 alleged Monaco based anon claimed MG left few days ago with a lot of luggage and Max's mother arrived to his apartment

03/03 a Max fanpage posted a picture of him holding a little child. Anons find out it's old and was posted on 13th December from when he was in Brazil during the race weeks earlier. Immediately after a MG fanpage posted her with the same child at a later date trying to make it seem like Max is in Brazil with her. He was not. The season starts very soon and he's busy flying between Monaco and Milton Keynes. Max announces his new contract with Redbull until 2028 and of course she's all over the comment section.

04/03 MG posts she's back home with full blown otitis. Max is in Ibiza to celebrate his father's birthday. She later posts a table full of flowers and a flower teddy bear and tags him however the tag doesn't work and doesn't link to his account. Anon finds out that the flower shop in Monaco does not sell the flower teddy bear for months as it's from an old collection and the new one has different boxing.

05/03 twitter anon came back with a recap of all rumors

07/03 elevator selfie of sick MG and Max "back from taking this sick puppy to the doctors". This wasn't posted by Max. It was posted by her. However Max's jet was in Milton Keynes that day.

10/03 we find out about the group chat MG is part of with her minions and gives them information. The following days minions get very aggressive towards every anti page on tumblr and IG because of the group chat leak.

13/03 people question where Mini MG is and suspect she's still in Brazil. Several comparison pictures of "new" and old were posted but I don't want to repost mini MG here. If she's indeed still in Brazil it also proofs the welcome back flowers are old because Peppa Pig was running on TV in the background

15/03 MG in Bahrain. The very first mentions of his nudes I could find. Very interesting.

18/03 rumors of an argument at breakfast and MG won't be at the track posted in the morning. And she was not at the track.

19/03 MG did go today. They looked tense.

20/03 she walks in by herself posing for the photographers but ends up watching the race from the tower and not the garage as usual. Rumors from the paddock after the race.

22/03 MG contacts the admins of various wag fan pages and asks them to delete some pictures. There's a wag admin group chat (different from the minion chat) and their conversation gets leaked. Some unedited pictures were unflattering and started pregnancy rumors again.

23/03 anons realised MG wasn't following her "bestie" Yasmin anymore. 4h later she commented on Yasmins post and refollows.

25/03 MG partied in Milan. Meanwhile there's no proof Mini MG has been with her for the past weeks.

28/03 MG finally returns to Monaco and is reunited with her daughter

And with that this episode of where they on a break or not has finished. Unfortunately since Steppy is gone I could not find what I was looking for to begin with. There was someone who claimed a friend of MG warned Max that she's trying to baby trap him and the friend thinks Max is too kind and sweet to be trapped like that so informed him. Many of us believed that friend was Yasmin Maybe one of you has it?

No way. In order to fill in some dates I wanted to check this very old IG account that posted everything about AN back than and which Jos was following. I last checked a couple of months ago to help Flower with her research. The account still exists but now has all posts deleted. Including the ones that weren't even about her. How strange. They weren't active in 3 years.

[cuddlebugmonster]

I for sure believe leo would invite usagi to a Jupiter Jim convention

Being that there is a whole series about usagi yuichi's ancestor having space adventures, these clothes would probably be tucked away somewhere at his aunts house where he would find them

Has big bugs bunny feets, baby make big stomps and steppies! >:3

Velvet Cage - Quiet Submission

Part 6

So you know- "English is not my first language. I have dyslexia. Let me know what you think about it, please."

And please read part 1 , part 2, part 3 part 4, and part 5 .before this!

Max Verstappen x Charles Leclerc Warning! Context Dark Romance, Slow Burn, Mafia AU, Power imbalance and manipulation. Domination and Submission, Strong Sexual Undertones and Suggestive Language

The nights that followed were a slow, intoxicating torment. Charles moved through them half in a trance, every glance from Max like a spark igniting the dry tinder of something he had buried deep inside himself for years: the desperate, aching need to submit, to be claimed, to belong. Max’s dominance was not about brute force but precision—a steady, unyielding pressure that left no space for escape. Every command was a promise every touch, a demand.

Max’s world was dangerous—dark, intoxicating, and completely unlike the life Charles had ever known. And yet, the more Max took, the more Charles realized that beneath the hard edges and cold steel was something terrifyingly raw: a promise of protection, a fortress built from control.

One night, Max summoned Charles to the back room again. The club was shuttered tight, but inside the small chamber, the air was thick with anticipation. Max’s eyes burned in the dim light silent, commanding, a predator ready to strike.

Without warning, Max closed the distance, grabbing Charles’s wrists and pinning them above his head against the cold brick wall. The sudden dominance stole Charles’s breath. His skin prickled beneath Max’s touch—deliberate, claiming, impossible to resist.

“You think you’re still in control,” Max whispered, lips brushing against Charles’s ear, voice rough with promise. “But you’re not. You never were.”

Charles’s chest tightened. “I’m not yours.”

Max’s fingers curled around his throat—gentle enough not to hurt, firm enough to mark territory. “Say it,” Max growled.

Charles’s pulse thundered painfully. His voice cracked. “I’m yours.”

A slow, satisfied smile curved Max’s lips. He lowered his mouth to Charles’s, devouring him in a kiss that was fierce, relentless—a claim and a command rolled into one.

When Max pulled back, eyes dark and hungry, he reached into his jacket and produced a small black box. Charles’s breath hitched. Inside the box was a collar—black leather, studded with silver, cold and heavy in his trembling hands.

Max’s voice dropped to a whisper. “Put it on.”

Charles’s fingers shook, heart pounding wildly, but he did it. Fastening the collar around his neck, he felt the weight of it settle like a second skin—a binding, a promise, a cage.

“You’re mine now,” Max said softly, lips grazing the shell of Charles’s ear. “No take-backs. No running.”

Charles’s breath hitched, part fear, part something darker and more thrilling. “I… I don’t know if I can do this.”

Max’s eyes softened for a moment, then hardened. “You don’t have to know yet. You just have to trust me.”

Then the room was shattered by the sharp buzz of Max’s phone. His expression snapped into something unreadable as he glanced at the screen. “Trouble,” he muttered.

Charles’s heart sank. “What kind of trouble?”

Max’s jaw clenched, voice cold and clipped. “Someone from my past. Someone dangerous. Someone who thinks they can take what’s mine.”

Before Charles could speak, Max’s phone buzzed again. This time, Max’s face went pale, almost ghostlike.

Charles swallowed hard. “Who is it?”

Max’s hand shook slightly as he locked the phone and turned to him. “It’s... complicated.”

Suddenly, Max’s usual control faltered just a little, and Charles saw something raw and vulnerable flicker beneath the surface—a crack in the armor.

“Whatever it is,” Charles said quietly, “you’re not alone.”

Max stared at him, eyes searching, and then, in a voice so low it barely reached Charles’s ears, he said, “I’m not used to needing anyone.”

Charles’s heart clenched.

“I’m not used to letting anyone in,” Max admitted, stepping closer, hand brushing along Charles’s jaw with unexpected tenderness. “But… maybe you’re different.”

Charles blinked, stunned by the confession. Then, with a breath heavy with new understanding, Charles whispered, “I need you too.”

Max’s grin was dark and victorious. “Good.”

Just then, the door burst open. A figure stepped inside—a woman, sharp-eyed and cold, holding a folder thick with secrets. She was not someone Charles expected.

“Max,” she said, voice clipped. “You’re in deeper than you know. And this one”—she nodded at Charles—“is the key.”

Max’s jaw tightened, eyes locking on hers with a silent warning. Charles stared between them, the weight of the moment crashing down. He wasn’t just a player in Max’s world anymore. He was a target. A weapon. A pawn.

And the collar around his neck suddenly felt heavier than ever. Max’s hand found Charles’s again, squeezing hard. “Whatever comes next,” Max said fiercely, “we face it together.” Charles nodded slowly, the acceptance settling like fire inside him.

He was Max’s now—in every way.

And there was no turning back.

Also, everyone please meet Big Steppy, my new friend who will be joining me on my many walks starting today :3

I've come to the conclusion that Veilguard wants to be Mass Effect 2 so so so so bad but it fails to understand what made that game work at almost every steppy <3

Nyt ku iso osa teistä kanssasuomalaisista tuntuu olevan huolissaan siitä, että arviolta viiden miljoonan puhujan kieli kuolee ennen seuraavia joulunpyhiä, niin haluun jakaa muutaman Kotimaisten kielten keskuksen blogitekstin.

Köyhtyykö suomen kieli (1/1988) Englantia kaikilla kielillä - harmittaako? (3/2008) Kieli muuttuu (4/2013) Steppi nextille levelille - englanti suomessa (2/2019)

En nyt selitä näistä sen enempää, kunhan jaan ihan jakamisen ilosta koska nää on seissy mun kirjanmerkeissä noin sata vuotta. Tai no, ton kolmannen linkin takaa löytyy vielä yks taulukko jonka haluun välttämättä laittaa jo tähän.

Ja sit vielä se pakollinen huomautus siitä, että en oo humanisti (mutta voin vilkaista) ja opiskelen maatalousalaa jos jotain, mutta kyllähän se kieltämättä vaikuttaa vähän hölmöltä, kuinka englannista ollaan maalailemassa jotain itänaapuriin verrattavaa mörköä. Että kyllä nyt internetin välityksellä tulevat vaikutteet ja imperialistinen turpasauna on sama asia ja niin edelleen. Samalla se tuntuu myös vähän pahalta nimenomaan niiden uralilaisten kielten puolesta, jotka on oikeesti vaarassa. Että jumalauta, teillä on noin viitisen miljoonaa puhujaa, virallinen asema ja lakipykälät omalla kielellä ja silti joku pelko siitä, että parinkymmenen vuoden päästä koko suomen kieli on käsitteenä täysin tuntematon? Ihan vertailun vuoksi mainittakoon vaikka udmurtti, jolla oli vuonna 2020 noin 270 000 puhujaa, ersällä 46 000 ja võrolla 75 000. Pienempiäkin on vaikka kuinka ja oma lukunsa on esim. vatja, joka mainittiin korkeintaan kerran peruskoulussa (ja taitaa olla tässä vaiheessa saattohoidossa) ja kveeni, joka on monelle jo sanana vieras. Lisäks on toki mainittava karjala ja saamelaiskielet, jotka on heikossa asemassa isoilta osin myös suomalaisen kolonialismin takia.

En nyt tee tästä sen kummempaa esseetä enkä vaivautunu suunnittelemaan tätä postausta muutenkaan sen enempää, kunhan halusin vaan tuoda esille jotain epämääräsiä ajatuksiani tähän anglismivääntöön liittyen. Jokainen "suomen kieli on pilalla/tuhoutumassa/kuolemassa"-selitys kun kuitenkin muistuttaa siitä, että meillä menee oikeesti ihan hyvin eikä tässä oo sen suurempaa hätää. Helvetti, virolla on noin miljoona natiivipuhujaa eikä sekään oo kuollu saksaan, ruotsiin tai venäjään - ja niitä jokapäiväsiä, selkeitä lainasanoja kuitenkin on, omasta kokemuksesta huomattavasti enemmän ku suomessa (pakollinen huomautus: en tiiä tarkkoja tilastoja, mutta esimerkkeinä vaikka temperatuur, taimer ja telefon ihan joitain mainitakseni)

Mutta joo, kunhan puhun lämpimikseni ja liitän vielä tähän loppuun yhen kuvankaappauksen ugri.netistä.

Että ei mulla muuta. Jos oma äidinkielen taito huolestuttaa, niin paras lääke siihen on ehkä suomenkielisen (myös sen käännetyn) kirjallisuuden ja muun tekstin lukeminen. Jos nyt lukee pääasiassa niitä englanninkielisiä fanficcejä niin onhan se myös ihan ymmärrettävää, jos aivoilla on tapana tarjota ensin englanninkielistä sanaa! Näin ihmisenä jonka aivotoiminta pyörii vireystilasta riippuen noin kolmella ja puolella kielellä voin myös luvata, että sanat menee sekasin ja lauserakenteet elää omaa elämäänsä, mutta se ei oo automaattisesti merkki maailmanlopusta. Toisinaan se voi olla merkki ehkä siitä, että olis korkee aika mennä nukkumaan.

Ja no, muistakaa sekin, että joskus mainoksissa ja tuotteissa käytetään paskoja anglismeja ja kankeita käännöksiä nimenomaan markkinointimielessä. Kyllähän se kanan crispy fileefingers jää ihmisten mieleen paremmin kuin joku rapea fileesuikale, oli se sit hyvässä tai pahassa.
