#stuff and make sure i dont need it for the legendary

[spiribia]

i’m sorry but this is so funny. imagine swinging your axe at an elder dragon in a desperate hail mary before blacking out and then when you wake up your axe just benignly has a dragon head. and the jaw moves and everything

Any version your comfortable with thank you

// mentions of drugging/spiking , kidnapping

takes place sometime during borderlands 3

without spoiling much, I leave it up to you as what your 'previous' job was.

"Huh, never thought this ship would have a bar." In hindsight that would be obvious. But for one in space? Definitely not.

Everyone calls it Moxxi's nightclub, though its more of a bar than anything else. Can you really call it a nightclub if your always in space?

Sanctuary III, the home of the Crimson Raiders. Where legendary people are formed to hunt vaults. Though you know that already.

The room gave off a radiant pink, a splash of colour from the rest of the ship. And in the middle stood who you assumed to be the woman herself, Mad Moxxi.

"Well hey Sugar. Dont think I've seen you around here." Her voice sounds like honey, a mix of courteousness and flirtiness enough to give some drunk people the wrong idea.

"Just came from Promethea actually."

"Promethea? Hope the corpo war hasn't been to hard on ya."

"Eh I'm doing alright. They raised the rent at my apartment because Atlas needed to get everyone out of the city. I don't blame him but. To be honest most of us have nowhere to go."

This became a regular occurance, after your job on Promethea you head to Moxxi's for a quick drink or a bite to eat before heading to your dorm.

[A few months later]

"Hey Moxxi, guess who finally managed to get enough funds to live back on Promethea!"

You ran into the bar, giddy with excitement.

"Aww, really? I'm going to miss you sugar."

Her makeup never changed since you first met. Still wearing the ruined mascara, intentional or not.

"Dont worry Mox. I'll visit you!" You chucked.

How about one last drink? On the house~"

She smiled, she always wanted to give you free drinks. But every time you denied her.

'Well. I- why not?" You shrug.

Looking around you notice that nobody else is around.

"You closing up early? Wait, what time is it?"

"Well after closing time, but I decided to let you in." She said while trying to get rid of a damn stain on her dress.

"Shit. Sorry-"

"Dont be, now bottoms up sugar~"

She poured the drink up to your lips. It felt kind of awkward but you went along with it for now.

It tasted familiar, like her finest blend but a little bit saltier? Maybe you're just imagining things.

"Thanks." She put it down after.

"Need some help back there? Like tidying up or something?"

"You're too kind~, mind checking the tables for any leftover drinks or anything. I say people just leave their drinks like its nothing." She sighed.

"Sure thing."

You stand up, almost wobbling a bit. Did she give you an extra strong version or something?

You look at every table, they all seem to be clear. Apart from one of the booths at the back, a few glasses lay there.

You pick them up and head back to her. Placing them on the table.

"Thanks doll."

"Oof. Yeah. I think im going to go now. I'm beat." You sit back down on one of the stools, placing a hand on your forehead.

"Jeez, how strong is this stuff?"

"Its a special blend."

"It sure is..."

"Oh sugar~, can't keep you're head on straight can you?"

The world around you slipped, as you fell on the floor.

"Dont worry. Momma Moxxi will take very good care of you. Just sleep. Kitten..."

You revealed Moxxi's true voice, a sickening sap that once she gets you into her clutches, she's never letting you go...

(I actually have the moxxi finest blend bottle. But I've never drank alcohol before and I don't think that whiskey is a good thing to try first 😅)

I AM SO SORRY FOR MAKING THIS TAKE SO LONG. I was busy with college and then tumblr decided to not let me edit for some reason. I'm personally not impressed with what I've written :/ I

Digimon Frontier theory: are the children digimon? part 1

I have a few reason to belive Takuya and his friend were digimon. I've been drawing a lot about frontier lately and this idea got stuck in my head. Why if the children were always digimon in disguise with amnesia? I know it sounds crazy but let me explain:

First chapter: ophanimon called dozens of human children to shibuya station. she wants them to take a train. Depise she accidentaly called the hole town (i guess it was an accident, oopsie) she just need six kids. how did she know who were the heirs of the legendary warriors? who knows, they never tell. WHY WERE THEY HUMAN CHILDREN? because demografic staff(? bandai?

back into the chapter, takuya gets the call and gets absurdly insane to take that fucking train. doesn't know why, there is a part of the episode when he almost got hit by a truck and doesn't even care. WE, AS VIEWERS, DONT KNOW HOW HE MADE IT IN TIME, BOY YOU WERE IN THE FUCKING SUBURB HOW DID YOU RUN TO THE STATION THAT FAST??? (we talk about this later) but the real question is, why did takuya feel like that? is because he is the protagonist or plot stuff or is it something else? as long as the series goes takuya shows a strange six sense, his intuition about how his powers or plot things work is really convinient and i know this is for plot propose but the other kids dont show this hability as much as him. No even kouji who is to Frontier what sasuke is to Naruto Shippuden.

speaking of kouji, ophanimon tells him about misteries arround him and the real question here is: is ophanimon, the holy angel protector of the digital world, speaking about the insane parent trap that kouji and kouichi have been involved? I mean, she spyes children or what? that is what makes me think, what if she wasn't talking about kouichi? what if she was talking about something else? what we sure do know is that kouji actually has reasons to doubt, about his life, about his indentity, maybe about anything in particular. i mean, he was doing something important before the call, and doesn't even exitate to left behind all those stuff to follow the call of a strange lady who promise him answers for a question he doesnt Even know. Kouji Knows something is on.

[cocolacola]

hellsing pokemon au !!

as promised, im going back to my usual hellsing shenanigans with some pokemon stuff. ive had this in my brain for months but have never gotten around to doing anything with it! my autistic ass has absorbed information about pokemon before i could have normal thought patterns, so hopefully my takes are at least a little satisfying. feel free to interact with ur own thoughts and suggestions!

i provided long explanations of each, but if you dont want to read all that just look at the pictures :P

long post ahead!

note: these aren't definitive teams, just me throwing around ideas. don't take this as the holy grail of headcanons or anything.

seras victoria

boltund would be her first pokemon i think, her main partner from before her work with the organization. togetic is here because idk im a togetic 4lifer and im a kinnie ? it just really made sense to me, just vibes, plus i think she really needed a flying type. may become a togekiss later, that would be cute. umbreon is pip's eevee that she evolved, and blastoise is a gift from walter. i think she needs more red pokemon to match her color palette and vampire vibes so ill probably add to this!

alucard

alucard needs a legendary of course, so darkrai. i think they would be good friends, they give the same "misunderstood tortured soul" vibes. houndoom to represent baskerville, noivern to fit the vampire/bat aesthetic.

and an important distinction:

i think girlycard should have a hisuian sneasel. they're the same critter. two ancient beings.

sir integra

im surprised with how much i struggled with this one. i feel like a fake fan. smh, anyways. sirfetch'd is perfect to me-even the unevolved farfetch'd is super fitting too-but i included the final form for this post. i wanted to stick with galar pokemon, but aegislash is literally a sword. cmon. stoutland is a recommendation from a friend that i 100% agree with. ive always associated her with the serperior line, so snivy was probably her starter. i think that'd be cute. im really open to suggestions on this one because i think she deserves more steel or normal types.

pip bernadotte

this is a big one! there were so many good options with pip... and i didnt even mean to color code it 😅 i wanted him to have an electric type to match seras (to add to the whole rivals-to-lovers aesthetic), so his main partner is raichu! it was between that or mudsdale, who i also really like (and is the only one on this team who cant be found in kalos, haha). i wanted him to have a bird (for the geese) so there's dodrio. scrafty and tauros just fit the vibe perfectly to me-they're sorta like honorable mentions. eevee is originally his but he eventually gives it to seras, who evolves it into umbreon. if pip would have kept it, i think it would have evolved into sylveon (the whole kalos thing).

walter c dornez

some interesting picks for walter. corvisquire is his main guy, his "angel of death", he's raised it from a rookidee since he was a kid. maybe it would evolve into corviknight when he becomes Dark Walter. not sure how that would work. i choose not to think about dark walter. bisharp is there for the steel typing vibes as well as the chess symbolism: it really hits right for me, with walter's arc being about how he's played as a "pawn", in a sort of way. also a nod to a very dear friend of mine who loves walter and the pawniard line respectively. :) now, why leavanny, you ask? it learns string shot, of course! also because id like to think he would raise a sewaddle in his old age to help him with things around the estate.

..aaand im out of room for images in the post! i'll make a part 2 with some bonus thoughts + the iscariot organization if i feel like it. bye for now!

[str8aura-no-not-that-one]

actually obsessed with Blossomverse!Chloe Cerise everytime i think about her.

She's ten years old, but acts like a late teenager. She's erudite and knowledgeable, but youthfully fickle and irresponsible. even before all the magic stuff happens and gives her an excuse to get into fights, she's shown to harbor deep violent tendencies (like beating her classmate with a fucking paint bucket). Hell, she enters a world of magic and spells, and her main weapon she stays with for months until the police confiscate it is a fucking metal pipe. that should say a hell of a lot about her without saying anything!

What gets me the most is that she's a legendary warrior who leads an army of much older adults, and is considered the most deserving of the title, but underneath all the battles and monologues shes a scared, immature child.

She ran away from home, where she was convinced nobody cared about her, and on the Train found a place where she's the center of the universe and everyone and everything bows to her. She literally gets to be one of the heroes in the stories she writes about, and carries her own brand of creepy and offputting everywhere she goes. All along she claims she never wants to go home, but she continues to show obsession with home and the people she left behind; she cant escape their grasp, cant stop thinking about how good it feels to finally show up her father and friends, to make them all hurt with her absence; continuously breaks her own vow of silence towards them to try and make them feel even worse, until even her own teammates are telling her she needs to calm down her obsession.

People's biggest complaints with the plot are that Chloe's reasons for running away make no sense. In my opinion, no duh it doesn't make sense! She's a child mad at the world, and the only reason she didn't come back with her tail between her legs the first day is that she was whisked off by a magic train! I think, deep down, a part of her realized very early into Blossoming Trail that she was wrong to leave, but her pride and the dopamine rush of being on the Train and holding power over the rest of her family kept her from admitting it.

That's why I drew Chloe as a tragic, bruised and bloodied girl instead of the badass fight pose i intended to draw initially; i think that's what Chloe is at her core. And the best part is, i dont think the writer intended any of that. Going off their word, im like 90% sure they think Chloe is entirely in the right, while i, with my anger issues and violent urges, love Chloe as a character because she isnt right. She was never right. she was just hurt and neglected.

of course, that isnt to say the whole adventure was her being whiny and that she should have just shut up and run back to her father. She helped a lot of people. She did a lot of wonderful things. She was always ultimately a good person. but what she learns at the end isnt to accept life as it is, or to not run away to fantasies; what she ultimately learns is to stop thinking of herself in regards to her father and family. She stops feeling the need to meet great expectations or to be at the center of the universe, the great Chloe Cerise of Vermillion.

she decides;

and i think thats pretty swell to learn before you hit your first teens.

(teenage years i should say; she hit a lot of teens. and adults. and elders.)

and then maybe Wisteria fucks up her character entirely idk i never read it

The Freedom of Expression Vol:13 - Looking back at the 25th Anniversary tour. 

*As soon as the wait screen appears, the sound of the director instructing Kaoru about the plan for the free half and the paid half can be heard. A few comments pop up saying, "We can hear you" etc, and the mics are promptly turned off until the official start time😅*

K: Hi, and welcome to The Freedom of Expression live on our Niconama channel. Im Kaoru from Dir en grey. 

J: Im Joe Yokomizo. 

T: And Im Tasai from Tokyo Sports. 

*applause*

K: Its been a while since we were here. 

J: This studio? It has, yeh. Is this where we did the Christmas tree last year?

K: Was that last year? Yeh, last year. 

J: Was it this year?

T: It was last year, wasn't it? Eh?! Was that last year??

K: Eh? haha

J: It was last year, right?

T: Yeh, yeh. It was last year. 

J: Since covid though, don't you feel like its kinda hard to know what happened when over these last two years? Don't you like, lose a sense of it? Or is that just me getting old?

K: Hm, Im not sure. 

J: We did do the tree here though, right?

K: Yeah, we did. And we made that cake. 

J: We did! 

T: Oh, yes. 

K: And we made Takoyaki. It makes me think we are gonna eat whenever I come here. And we had all the Umaibos!

J: Was it here where we went up to the roof at New Year?

K: Oh, what was it?...Bubbles, and stuff. 

J: Was that here?

K: Yeah, I think it was. 

T: *reading comments* One year since the cake, that black cake.  

K: *notices the comments* Eh?! It looks like umaibo. (*there is a kind of wierd graphic in the comments*)

J: Woah. How do they do that? People are so creative. Ahh, the cake of darkness, yeh. 

T: That tasted good. 

J: Ah, memories, memories. Well, anyway, today we dont have any cake, or Christmas activities, but more importantly, Kaoru, congratulations on completing the 25th anniversary tour!

*applause* 

K: Thank you. 

J: So, the tour is now finished, after starting on October 25th and continuing nationwide. And you did one extra show on Dec 16th, with audience cheering allowed! I wonder if anyone who went to that show is watching now? I think a lot of the people watching us today will have gone to at least one show during the tour...Oh, whats that? Kaoru's mic is hitting his necklace? 

*Kaoru fixes his mic*

T: (*reading comments*) "Thank you for coming to Tokorozawa!"

J: Ah, "I went to Shinjuku". That has become a legendary performance. 

T: "It was so much fun!"

J: "At last, I could use my voice!" Ahh, keep sending in your comments. Oh, so by the way, the theme of this live broadcast is 'Tour 22: From Depression to____ After-Talk Special'!

*applause*

J: Ahh, "I couldn't get tickets to Shinjuku", "I went to Sendai", "I went to Osaka and Amagasaki". Ok, so Leader, the tour is over, but first just give us a quick word on your feelings about it. 

K: Well, hmm, a lot of people came, so I'm really thankful to everyone who did. 

J: I see. Tasai, what would you like to ask?

T: Well, I went to Haneda. It was quite a different feeling there. It looked like you guys were having a lot of fun on stage, but how was it really for you?

K: Well...I'm gonna get a bit serious here, haha...Uh, well, normally we'd release an album, and do a tour, and the songs would be all kinda new, right? So as we do the tour, we'd be kinda gradually chasing the songs up to a higher level as we play them. But this time, we've already done all there is to do with these songs...It might sound strange to say it, but there is nothing higher to achieve with them. Plus, parts of them are ingrained in us, so we know exactly how they will flow out. 

J: You mean, you've perfected them live?

K: Yeah, so it wasn't really a case of 'How is this tour going to go?', but rather, 'How can we make each day exciting?'. So, that was actually quite difficult, haha.

T: Ah, like retaining your motivation?

K: Yeh, or like trying to decide which parts we need to spice up on each day, and stuff. It wouldn't be very exciting if we just played the songs the same old way as usual. I mean, even for us too. So we kinda fumbled along, trying to make each day of the tour exciting. 

J: I see, so if you have a new album out, your big goal is to perfect the songs live, but with these songs that you already know so well, you had to kind of set yourself new objectives, or missions for each day of the tour?

K: Yes. It also reminded me of my past self, well, in my playing style too, but also in my movements and stuff. It was almost as if my past self was trying to emerge, I remembered how I used to be on stage. It felt too different from my current self, and I didn't really want to go there. That was hard for me.  

J: Well, a live show is a bit like a documentary of current times, so in that sense, you didn't want to fall back into your old habits?

K: You could say that, for me. It was difficult anyway. 

T: What exactly do you mean by your past self emerging? 

K: Well, it could be anything. When I'm playing a song, the feelings I had in the past emerge in my body, you know? I mean, I don't know if thats actually how I really was, but, you know? 

J: It happens spontaneously, right?

K: Also, we had a bit of leeway with them this time, right?

J: Ah, yeh, because they are not new songs? 

K: So, I ended up feeling like I need to do something different with them. I could simply just play them as they were, but I did end up feeling like I need to do something with them. I had this kind of ongoing internal conflict in my head..'You don't need to change it, its fine', and 'Oh, you need to do something with this!'. 

J: Were there any parts of the tour where you really tried to challenge yourself with the old material?

K: Well, no, in that sense we put a group of recent songs in the middle of each set, then we put in the new 'ain't' after those. That was the part where we could challenge our current selves. So thats what we considered while making the rest of each setlist. 

J: I see. Someone asked, "How do you feel about the re-recorded versions?" Everyone is sending a lot of enthusiastic questions. But, I was gonna say, a live show happens in the moment, right? So you must have had a lot of incidents ocurring on tour, like in the dressing rooms, or in transit etc? Can you tell us about anything that happened during this tour? 

K: Now? Incidents?(*thinks*)

J: Yeah, backstage gossip. We wanna hear about it. 

K: Well, at Haneda, my amp broke. 

T: Which day at Haneda??

K: Day 1, during the rehearsal before the main show. (*To his manager off camera*) It was day 1 wasn't it? Yeah. So we had an emergency substitute brought in. Oh, no, actually on that day we just used a back up one that we already had, but we got a proper substitute in for the following day. I still havn't got mine back yet. 

J: Oh, its still being repaired?

K: Yeah. 

J: ???

K: Well, the staff did their best.

J: Ahh, I see. Well, this kind of thing can happen on tour. 

T: What about food? Did you eat anything nice?

K: Well, we went to Hokkaido at long last. I ate some nice things in Hokkaido. Well, there is good food everywhere though. 

J: Well yeah. What did you eat in Hokkaido?

K: Seafood...Uh, I had Shirako ponzu (*cod milt/sperm with ponzu sauce*)

J: Ahhhh, I wanna eat that!!

K: Hahaha

J: I couldn't go to any of the regional dates, I wanted to go to Osaka though.

K: They don't call it shirako in Hokkaido though, do they? What do they call it again? Tachi?

J: So like 'tachi ponzu'? 

K: Tachipon. 

J: Ahh, did you have sake with it?

K: No, I had a highball. Haha

J: You always drink highballs!

T: Thats the type of thing that would come up in a Kaoru quiz. 

J: Oh, will it?

T: Yeah, you have to remember this. 

K: For another time, right? haha. 

J: Yes, for another time. Thats the keyword to remember with Tachipon. Oh, look, some people are saying they went to Hokkaido. Well, we'll talk more about those details later, but for now the director is telling us to move to the next page. 

(*They all pick up thier notes and turn the page*) 

J: Ok, just notifications to read out. Uh, on this show we really, really welcome lots of comments and messages. Suppport, thoughts, feelings about the show, anything is ok, so please send them in. Twitter users can use the hashtag TFOE. The first part of this show is free for anyone to watch, but the second part is for channel members only.

Leader, point to it. Thank you. Everyone, please use this link to become a member and stay with us to the end. Ok, so for this 25th Anniversary Tour After-Talk Special, here is our first corner. "Ego-surfing for reports of the tour!"

T: Lets do it!

J: We did this once when the album was released, right?

K: Yeah 

J: Well we are going to do another forbidden search, now that the tour is over. Its scary, right?! Searching for yourself online. Eh, someone said  "Aghhh, don't do it!" No, we will do this live. Tasai is currently searching on the PC, but this same Tasai has an injured foot. 

T: Haha, sorry. 

J: What happened? Show us. 

(*Tasai lifts up a bandaged foot*)

T: Its embarrassing, haha. 

J: What happened?

T: I fell over. 

J: Where? 

T: In front of my office. 

J: Ehhh?! Were you drunk?!

T: No I was just setting off for home like normal, and there was a pothole in the road. My foot got caught in it and I fell over sideways. 

J: Honestly though, Leader, don't you think Tasai has gotten bigger? I think he has. 

K: Well, he looks big. 

T: Oh dear, thats not good. What should I do?

J: Whats your weight?

T: About 100kg. 

J: I bet it is, that sounds about right. You fall in a hole with that much weight, this is what happens! How embarrassing. 

K: (*Laughing at Joe*) How embarrassing? Hahaha

J: Look, someone said, "I want to nurse him"

T: Thank you. 

J: There are people like that out there! When you get guys like me laughing at your pain and embarrassment, there are still people out there who want to nurse you. Haha, someone said, "He's getting plump" haha, "Tasai is becoming a Titan". Oh, ok  yes, lets do some ego-sufing. 

T: (*Reading tweets*) Ok, whats this one..."ワシら(wasihra/us)"

K: Thats my tweet, haha.

T: Hahaha  

J: The first one you chose, and its Kaoru's?? Oh, right, Im being told to explain the hashtag. Right, yes. So what we are doing is searching on Twitter for tweets about the tour. We want to see the reports from people who went to see the lives. We are searching using the tag DIRENGREY25th, so if you havn't already tweeted your thoughts, do it now with this tag, and the injured Tasai may just pick up your comment. 

K: These tweets go right back to the start of the tour. 

J: There's so many, its hard to choose, right?

K: Should I do the scrolling (*takes over*)

J: Poor Tasai with his foot, he can't move much. 

T: Haha 

J: Well, if you remember when we did this with Phalaris, even if you write something now, it might still get seen. 

K: (*Reading a tweet*) "There were a load of songs from Vulagar and Withering to Death, it was a great setlist. I wish they had played The Final and Obscure though". 

J: Ahhh

K: Ahh, we didn't play those two on this day. We did on other days, just not this day. 

J: I see, yeh. It depends on the day. Well, later we will talk more about how every single day was different, the director is telling me. 

K: Haha, they weren't that different from each other. They were only a little bit different each time. 

T: You can talk about the reasons for the changes and stuff. 

K: No no, its not that we planned to change stuff, its just like I said before, we just needed to make each day more exciting by changing little things here and there. 

J: Oh, so you didn't have a big plan from the start to make each day totally different?

K: No no. 

J: It was just a little bit to keep up the excitement after each show. 

K: Yeah. 

J: So would you like, finalise or change up your setlists at the last moment?

K: On the same day?

J: Yeah. 

K: Well, we have done that...

J: Amazing!

K: Well, I mean, thats not really a big deal for us. haha. The staff will have to change a few things round for us, but thats about it. 

J: Ahh, I see. (*reading comments*) "Thats backstage gossip too". Right?

K: (*Looking at computer screen*) These are all tweets from Sendai. 

J: Did something special happen at Sendai? 

K: No, no, I mean, we've only scrolled as far as Sendai, haha. 

T:(*Reads out a tweet mentioning Rasetsukoku*)

K: Hm, yeh, we played Rasetsukoku each time. Im just gonna scroll right down...Ah still Sendai.

J: There are so many tweets for each live. 

K: There's still tonnes. Tasai, I was hoping you would have scrolled a bit further by now. Hahaha. 

J: Yep, there they are both, scrolling away. Are you past Sendai yet?

K: Uh, Zepp Sapporo. 

T: (*Reads out a tweet saying that Saku was the first song*). Ah, starting with Saku!

J: Yeh, I noticed a few days started with Saku when I saw the setlists. Im honestly a bit envious. Starting with Saku is epic, right?!

K: Really?

J: Yes. 

K: Actually, we started with Rasetsukoku for the first two days. 

J: Oh, really?! Thats the rule??

K: The rule? Haha, no, we just decided off the cuff. 

J: Oh, is that it?

K: Yeah. 

(*Louds noise blares out. Kaoru looks shocked and wide-eyed. The sound goes off, and then the video stops for several mins. A message pops up informing of technical difficulties*) 

K: Ok 

J: Ok, we're back! We did it!

T: We're back!

J: The tech staff got us back. 

K: That was quite scary wasn't it?

J: Yeah! Like 'Kyaaaaa' all of a sudden. 

T: It was like a screech from another world. 

K: I was pretty shocked. 

J: Someone in the comments asked if it was Kyo. 

K: Haha

T: Haha. One comment said that its because Joe was predicted many blocked paths this year. You remember our shrine visit?

J: Ah, maybe thats it. I was predicted that at the start of the year, wasn't I?

K: It was Tasai's mic acting up though  wasn't it? And then this huge noise exploded. 

T: As soon as I talked about my leg, it started doing stuff. 

J: Tasai, you need to be purified at the shrine, you have evil on you. 

K: We went at the start of the year though, right?

J: But if its Tokyo Sports there could be all sorts hanging around. 

T: No, but since I hurt my foot, my wife won ¥10000 on the lottery, and WestLand, who I'm reporting on, won the M-1. So there are a lot of good things happening around me. 

K: What about us(Dir)? hahaha 

J: There's nothing bad hanging around you! Ehh, what could it be? Well, at least we've got the sound back. What were we talking about before? Oh, Saku!

T: Yeah, Saku. 

J: Where was it? Hokkaido! Saku was the first song in Hokkaido. 

T: You need a lot of power to burst open with Saku though, right? 

K: What else did we say? About how we opened with Rasetsukoku only on those two days. 

J: Yeah, I think the viewers probably heard that. So continuing the search. Actually there was a question about Sendai...something about a sauna in the dressing room? Did you go in the dressing room sauna?

K: Ahhh, no I didn't. 

J: Oh, more background noise? There is definitely some evil hanging around. 

T: Is it me??

K: We didn't hear anything here, right? Its better now?

J: Ah, lots of ghost emojis..."Its Rasetsukoku" (*land of rakshasas*)

K: Well, I mean, weird stuff just happens to us a lot. 

J: Yeah, so we are probably ok, right? 

T: Anyway lets do this search. 

J: Yes, lets get on with that. Someone wrote, "Sprinkle salt around Tasai's leg"

T: Haha 

J: Someone bring us some salt!

T: Haha, yes please. Ok, now we are at Nov 18th which is Amashin..

K: While we were off air, we did some mega scrolling, haha. 

J: Yeh, the sound guy and you two were working hard, I was just sat here. Sorry, haha. 

T: Ok, here's a tweet. "The speed at which Toshiya crossed the stage during KR cube was incredible!" Do you remember this Kaoru?

K: Uh, I dunno. Haha. He's being doing that for years though, right?

T: Another one, "C straight after Merciless Cult was amazing!" What do you think? This song order is great on the album too. 

K: Yeah, we tried that. I think we only did that once though. 

T: (*Correctly reads out a tweet containing a few song names*)

K: Oh, you really do know the songs! Just from this?!

T: Yes (*reads the name Mamachen/Marmalade Chainsaw*)

K: You even know Mamachen!

T: Yes, because I listen to them. 

K: Oh, thank you. 

T: (*Reading more tweets*) "It was amazing beyond words", also, "Toshiya is really macho" etc. 

K: (*scrolling*) Joe, speak for a bit. 

J: Ah, ok. There are a lot of comments coming here, as well as the tweets, especially about Toshiya cutting across the stage, like his legs are so long he can cross the stage in three steps.

T: No way!

J: Thats was was written in the comments! There are lots of comments about Toshiya..."I was happy to see Die all in red"...."I thought Toshiya's body was 90% legs"

K: Hahaha 

J: That must be a joke. But people are saying its right! Someone wrote that you were chasing each other around the stage at Amashin. 

K: Eh?

J: Were you chasing each other? 

K: Uh, no. What does that mean?

J: Give us some more details people...Did you chase the other members around the stage? 

K: Oh, like following behind? Yeh.

J: "Kaoru and Shinya chased Kyo"

K: Ahhh, yeh.

J: Also, "Kaoru's paper airplane"

K: Oh yeh, I did that. Where was that again?

J: Osaka? 

K: Yeh. I folded the setlist into a paper airplane while I was on stage, but my folding technique was a bit off. I folded it like this (*demonstrates with notes*), so it just flew in a vertical drop as soon as I threw it. Haha

J: It didn't even reach the audience??

K: It fell in the space just infront of the audience. 

J: Ah, someone just said it was Osaka day 2, the paper airplane story. If you guys have any other events from the tour that you want to know about, please send a comment...."The towel throwing was also great". Did you throw it far, Leader? 

K: Well, it flew. 

J: Oh, someone said the water bottles and towels flew as far as the second floor at Hatch. 

K: If you throw the water bottles right, they do go quite far. 

J: To the second floor?

K: Yeah. 

T: (*scrolling*) I think I've reached to the newest tweets...."I made so many memories, it was amazing. My neck is sore"..."I was glad they played Saku and Kodou"...Where is this? Hm, maybe Hatch day 2..."The 25th anniversary tour was great! KR was so much fun, and I've always wanted to hear songs like Wake, Drain, and Jessica live, so I cried a lot during the show"

K: Well, songs are like that. Each person has their own particular meaning and memories attached to each song. So yeh, I can understand that. 

T: It seems like there were a lot of songs from earlier albums. 

K: Well, that was decided by the song battle which Fujieda did. Sitting and talking by himself all that time, haha. But we tried to just include most of the highest ranking songs from that. The songs that we chose ourselves are actually very few. 

J: Ahh. "The mistake at the start of Jessica was also good" Did you make a mistake?

K: Yeah 

J: They spotted it. 

K: Well, we stopped the song. 

J:Oh! Please write where that was if you saw it, guys. "Thank you for spraying water on me, Kaoru". 

T: "The excitment was crazy with Rasetsukoku at the start". That must have been one of those two lives. 

K: Yeh, people like that song.

J: They really do. "Citta day 2"? Ahh. 

T: Also "They didn't play 'I'll' after all". A fan sent this with a crying emoji. 

K: Well, well, well...hahaha. 

T: Ok, I get you, haha. 

J: "I love Rasetsukoku so much, I want it at the start and the end!"

K: Nah...I don't think so, hahaha. I'd want a different song. 

J: Yeh, we get that they love it, but we need variety too. 

T: "Happy Birthday to my favourite guitarist, Die"

K: Ah, yeh, it was his birthday yesterday. 

J: Happy Birthday Die. 

T: Yes, Happy Birthday. Hm, what else can I find here.."It was so emotional at Shinjuku Blaze"

K: Oh yeh, it was the first time in ages for me to go to Kabukicho, the last time was for that talk event we did in Loft. 

J: Oh yes, that was 4 or 5 years ago, right? Ah, but Blaze, yes. 

K: Yeah, Kabukicho really doesn't suit me. Hahaha. 

J: Its so garish, right?

K: Well, it felt kind of dirty. 

J: Ahhh, yeh. 

K: Like, people lined up everywhere,  drinking. I know people do that from the daytime in Ueno and places too, but Kabukicho has a kind of slimy feel to it. 

J: Yeah, Shinjuku is unique. Uneo and places are different. 

T: People are commenting about Tōyoko (*トー横 - An area in Kabukicho*). 

K: Yeh , it was next to Tōyoko. 

J: But this was the first 'cheering allowed' live in ages, right? How was it?

T: Yeah, I wanted to go. 

K: Well...it was a step in the right direction. 

J: Yeah. So cheering was allowed from when the members appeared on stage?

K: Yes 

J: Ahh, somebody write how it felt in the comments! Well, as Leader said it was the first step. Uh, we will talk more about the setlist in the second half. Ah, someone said, "I cried". Well, of course yeh, its been a long time. 

T: (*Reads out a couple of tweets praising the Blaze live*) 

J: Oh, but that moment where the lights go down and everyone screams, right? 

K: But at first, when the lights changed, everyone clapped. 

J: Oh, out of habit? 

K: Yeh. Then when Shinya went out, he was the first out...thats when the cheering started. Well, as far as I heard.

J: Ah yeh. "I wanna scream their names". Yeah, people who couldn't go to Shinjuku will be feeling this. People really want to know whether cheering will be allowed at the tour next year?

K: Well, with current circumstances, the answer is no. It depends on each venue. A lot of them are saying that cheering is allowed at half capacity, which would be a bit tough for us. But if they say cheering is allowed at full capacity...well, I don't know yet. But for now, no. 

J: Its not really something a band can decide on their own, right? It depends on the venue and the region, but im sure people will understand. Anyway, we had a bit of a break earlier, but we are now at the end of the first part of the broadcast. I think we've made up for the part that we lost earlier. In the second part, we will take a much closer look at the setlists from the 25th Anniversary tour, so please join us for that. As was mentioned a bit earlier, each setlist was different!

K: Haha, I don't think thats such an impressive thing really though. 

J: Oh no no. Im not sure if the audience and the performers feel the same about this, but changing just one song can change the whole atmosphere, right?

K: Well, that is true, yes. 

J: So its really exciting for the audience, if they compare it to previous shows. You may even see setlists from the shows you went to, so please send in any questions you like. Ok, ill just inform you of how you can watch part 2. The next part is for channel members only, so you have to be a member if you want to watch to the end. Then you'll be able to watch this broadcast in the archives for a year, and we also have members only videos for you. In these we set various challenges for ourselves. There are some funny ones and some more serious ones. Ok, here's how to join. There should be a blue link at the top of your screen. Leader, point to it please. Thank you. Leader's fingers are on the move. If you click this link you will get a payment method screen. Thank you for pointing sideways, Leader. Choose you preferred method, click proceed, and then enter your info. Its really simple, so if you haven't already joined, please do so to stay with us to the end. Ok, Leader, before we switch over, do you have any announcements you'd like to make?

K: Announcements? 

J: If you have any. Its ok if you don't. 

K: Hmm, do I have any?

J: Haha, I don't know. For example, TheTheDay stuff, or something?

K: TheTheDay is the day after tomorrow. 

T: How about what you will eat tomorrow morning or something? haha

K: Should I really announce that? haha. 

J: I think you could. 

K: I haven't decided yet, haha. Oh, just earlier...today we were rehearsing for the New Year festival, and I had a bit of time before coming here, so I got some ramen, but the soup was lukewarm. It was so disappointing. 

T: Hahaha

J: Ahhh, what a shame for your post-rehearsal ramen!

T: Thats quite an important announcement. 

J: Yeah, it is. 

K: I was disappointed. 

J: Yeah. What will the New Year festival be like? Well, you probably can't say anything, right? 

K: Nah. Anyway, we don't even have a timetable yet. 

J: Well, we can look forward to it. Someone asked what kind of ramen you had?

K: Soy sauce type. 

J: Is that your usual type?

K: No, I like miso, soy sauce, tonkotsu, anything salty, but I guess if im trying a place for the first time, i would choose soy sauce. 

J: Ahh, but still, the sauce was lukewarm. Well, lets get rid of your disappointment and cheer you up in the second part. 

K: In Hokkaido I had miso ramen. It was the first time in absolutely ages to have ramen in the middle of the night after drinking. 

J: Ah, but I guess you didn't care much if you were drunk?

K: I wasn't that drunk though. 

J: Was it like, you went straight in without having to wait in line?

K: I did have to wait. 

J: Oh, you did? Ahh, someone wrote "ramen report". Maybe we will have to do that next year. Ok, we will stop here to switch over. The change over screen will appear for a moment, so members hang tight. See you in part 2 for more 25th Anniversary tour talk!

[margle]

just watched the episode. thoughts I have so many thoughts here is a list of them in no order

undefined queer dennis canon!!!! my favourite type of queer rep honestly because me too dennis, me too

also I looooove how unsanitised mac's sexuality is. like yesss frank representing people who are fine with some aspects of queerness but rejects the bits they dont understand

funny that dee got the 'engage physically bit' and mac didnt. mac has had anal beads in his arse before he will kiss a man. honestly good for him

dennis is pretending to hate mac again??? this man is incapable of emotional intimacy without like 50 constructed rituals

both of them are now equally delusional with mac not getting that he was in love with dennis the whole time and dennis putting anal beads in his arse because he 'wanted soft shell crab'. sure. sure.

I hope they both implode

mac's date was so funny especially the lebron comment. dee was great as usual but a bit under-utilised maybe

dee still giving side character vibes this season which is annoying but whatever this episode was too insane for me to care too much

and we also got more lore on her attitude towards banging men. which is very. very. fucked.

I am kissing glenn for all his little expressions this ep. so mischievous

aehbfjk;sladw;ndf;owalk/mfk;wnoja'pfwdk;ld/nf

canonical macdennis penetration?!

all the roofie stuff was uncomfortable but also not really ooc. they are genuinely so tragic. none of them can see what is so violating about that.

the scene with dennis controlling frank was maybe made to imply that dennis was only controlling mac for the power trip but that doesnt make any fucking sense considering the texting, making him fall in love and HIS EXPRESSIONS. so idk why they did that. I guess to just show that dennis can still be arch? just for some cut away humour? idk im going to have to think about that. like the inclusion of frank feels purposeful

also making dennis put anal beads in his fathers arsehole was insane and disgusting and very sunny

the uncle jack stuff just wasnt funny. it is only funny when his creepiness is implied and absurd - like the hands. just straight up child abuse isnt funny. unless it wasnt meant to be funny?? I feel like his character needs to go somewhere this season otherwise his constant presence feels a bit unnecessary. honestly im hoping he dies.

charlie weakly saying 'disgusting' is just sad.

the patrick guy seemed really nice MAC WHAT ARE YOU DOING

I now understand why that reviewer called him a hopeless romantic

im still reeling

there was just so much in this episode

oh and the end sequence was really funny with frank slobbering everywhere

yeah overall this is definitely going to become a legendary episode

it airing directly after the macdennis break up podcast is really funny

[wigglepiggle]

okay you cant just say that and not elaborate. please elaborate. if you want to ofc you don't have to-

I will gladly elaborate this is very rough so idk how much sense it makes

first off this is about pokemon btw. also I'm not entirely sure how time travel works in pokemon I know it happens a lot but I. I don't know and I can't look it up rn so this might be incorrect I don't care

so there's this guy yk. he lives in a different timeline than the main story(not suuper different but it's different. basically in the main story he didn't really exist) and basically there's this legend (in both timelines) about 3 species of pokemon that represent the fear responses (fight, flight, and freeze) and those pokemon generally make people really nervous around them(they aren't doing it on purpose their abilities just screwed them over)so humans dont interact with them and eventually due to circumstances I still need to figure out but poaching them is one many die out until there's only a couple left

3 of each species the remaining pokemon (the pokemon also don't have names auughh) get so mad at humanity they train for a long time. Freeze gets especially powerful as it tries to shed it's weakness of being very slow and also unable to attack effectively and succeeds at that so it uses it's fear inducing power stuff to almost cause the apocalypse before another legendary from the reigon has to seal it away into a statue state. the other two stronger pokemon run away to avoid being punished however the statue has a marking on it that looks like an item could fit there but that's for later

anyways now actually on to this guy who I'll call. tree. because he's related to the professor who's named after a tree. that will not be their actual name I need a placeholder anyways he works in a mine with his pokemon that helps him mine. it's another form of one of the starter pokemon, who is a grey catbird with a meowth disguise. it's basically that but with perrserker so it gains steel typing (it's steel/dark now)and it's stronger because it's bred to be more for helping in the mines

tree then gets into beef with this one person over if the freeze pokemon legend is true and he travels all around out of spite to find the object that fits in the statue and eventually they find it and invite the person into the building that houses the statue

while they're waiting for the person to join them at the building tree starts to realize that if the legend was true and not something to just get people to visit the mountain it's on he could literally rule the world so he decides he wants to because they're tired of working in the mines

so the person makes it and he puts the object into the statue. and the pokemon awakens. but now it's extremely pissed off so it starts firing the Psychic Waves That Make You Anxious everywhere

and well tree almost dies instantly from the pokemon immediately attacking him but god decides he could be useful so arc decides to take him inside of the realm it's in and give tree a stern talking to and a look into what happened after he awakened the pokemon were literally all of the people and pokemon have lost it and now nothing can function anymore and then it throws him into the main story timeline. because the evil team leader is planning on doing the exact same shit he did and arc doesn't want another timeline to go to complete shit again

oh and then his bird managed to come through with them and it got lost after its pokeball broke open once getting here and almost killed the mc and one of the rivals and her tyrouge who she just saved from death the day before so that's another thing that happens

[fanficfish]

Why i love honkai star rail as a disabled player, part 2

part one

alright time for part teo now that im properly into the game. Ive added it to my phone now so this will also cover the mobile. I also dont rememebr what i talked about the first time so forgive any repition

spoilers as usual

Mobile controls are so easy. Im sure i mentioned how intuitive the controls are but its the same for both pc and mobile (idk about any other platform). And its vwry easy to jump from one platform to another, no rememembering where buttons are kn different decices. As long as youve played videogames before it all makes sense.

The turn based stuff is still great. I love battling, and i hate numbers but ive actuslly gotten into my characters and their stats. Like, in what world? Its satisying seeing s character do an AoE and then everything dorps becaus elf the high damage output, turn base goves some nice opportunity to admire your work.

i will say im not into some of the outfits of the characters. Seele is a bit much for a girl livijg in an underground crazytown and Bronya's cloak looks like a safety hazard. Herta is msotly fine (a bit short but ig it work since shes basically in doll form) but March....honey please we walked through a freaking blizzard and you were the one in nothing but a sumeme dress. Did the ice make you immune??? Clara i can understand though, and i have heard Seele was based off her H3 design but still. Some of those outifts look a little inlpractical....then again its a gacha game where the main selling poitnsbare "lookat out cool characters". And i like the male trailblazers ourfit mroe then the male traveller from Genshin

music. Omg i love the music so much. You dont even knwo. Ive been singing the melodies all weekened. Its gonan be one of those legendary themes i think

font size. Good on Pc, wish it was slightly bigger kn mobile esspecislly for some stuff where being sble to see the words is usually a good thing.

Pom pom. Unlike Paimon, they are not mildly annoying and are very cute. They need to be protected at all costs especislly from the memory guardian person. The Breakfast light cone is just so funny too lol. This has nothign to do with the design or anything i just needed to say jt.

even as a FTP player its actually pretty easy to get stuff if you dont mind apending a few mintues or an hour chasing down a frw achivements even just playing the mossions can nab you the premium currency and the grind is the least annoying thing ive played since Monster Super League (which was annoying but was the point kf the game so i couldnt fault it). And dont forget the freebies and gifts! And level rewards! And 50 other things!

Traces. Relics, and light cones are all vpretry intuitive menus. Took me a hot minute to figure out how tk level up a character but now i got it. As long as you know vaguely what atats you need ktsball good.

thats all i really have for now, ill make a part three if j think of more. I did want to add that if you have shaky hands, not having to aim March's bow or aim for an enemy and just tap where the enmh is in the turn based is so much ncier.

[plinfaaa]

SPOILERS AHEAD!!

Okay now I will talk abt my season rating in Ninjago. I don't hate any season, I love them all but I have my reasons

16. Sons of Garmadon

Okay so my least favourite one is the 9th Season. I don't necessarily think it's bad, in fact it's good just like every season of Ninjago. I just don't like it as much as the other episodes. I REALLY hate Harumi in this season. How she betrayed Lloyd and stuff... It's just not it.

15. Hands of time

I like the concept of this season and how it shows so much stuff about the past of the elementary masters but I just don't like Crux and Acronix. They were kinda boring in my opinion... Yeah for sure Acronix was kinda funny with all his love for stupid phone games but other than that, it's just not really it. It's still over Sons of Garmadon because I really like to know more about the past.

14. The island

This one could be so cool, I love the Island concept and the small story of Wojira but it was just so short. I love Ninjago but why does this only have 4 episodes? Maybe the story doesn't need as much as explanation as the others but it's so short :,) Other than that I like the characters a lot! And I love the jungle concept.

13. March of the Oni

Same as the Island, it's so short! You could've just put it at the end of Hunted and not make it an own 'season' (yes I know it's a short but on the Wikipedia page it's listed as season..) BUT HEY! Jay asked Nya to be his Yang and I LOVE this scene. That's why it's higher than the island. And the fighting is epic asf.

12. Master of the mountain

This season is really really good! I enjoy Shintaro and I LOVE Vania. Also Vangelis is a very cool villain but tbh... the stuff with the Munks and Gekkles was a bit annoying. Still, Coles past was cool and his new special ability. I just like other seasons more but it's a good one!

11. Secrets of forbidden Spinjitzu

At this point the rating is hard. This season is enjoyable and Aspheera might be one of my favourite villains ever. She's just so cool with her Egypt concept. And poor Kai for loosing his powers ): Also I like the never realm and especially Akita as a character! But I still think the whole thing with Zane and the Ice emperor is a bit strange... not saying it wasn't cool, it actually got me in shock. I really haven't thought of that solution. Yes, this season is amazing but not as good as the others

10. Rise of the Spinjitzu Master

It's the first season and absolutely legendary! I love the snakes as enemy and seeing their early days gets me emotional asf, just as seine how they got to discover their true powers. Jaya getting a thing, Cole talking to his dad. This season is overall great! I like the others a bit more for reasons but still, this is the first and it's legendary!

9. Rise of the snakes

I love this one even more! I think the episodes just fit my taste more than the ones in season one? Also GARMADON AS VILLIAN!!!! I personally think he's kinda cool, so nothing to brag about. Also the episodes are all just amazing!! It's a very good season and I am sad that it's still that far in the back.

8. Hunted

I DONT KNOW HOW AND WHY. But I was so invested watching hunted. I am not a big fan of Sons of Garmadon BUT HUNTED. Woah that shit really got me catched. The first world is amazing and the dragons everywhere and the Iron Baron as villain is cool. Also Faith is so cool and just everything is perfect. It's a deserved place here.

7. Posession

I think we all can agree when I say the Ghost Whip is the BEST intro ever. Also Morro is an amazing villain, even his sidekicks Ghoulta, Soul Archer and Bansha are so amazing. The cloud kingdom is such a cool concept and I absolutely love Ronin, so YEAH! Ronin debut!! This season might be a lot of ppls fav one, not mine but still has a deserved 7th spot.

6. Seabound

I know people are gonna think I am crazy but Seabound is literally SO FRICKING GOOD! Prince Kalmaar is an AMAZING villian! He is cool! And I love Benthomaar a lot. The underwater stuff is so cool and the end is just so sad. It literally brought me to tears (it's hard to bring me to tears at a stupid series.) I'ts so emotional in a beautiful way. It hurts.

5. Rebooted

Okay this might be an unpopular opinion, especially because it's a rather short season but I was obsessed with it while watching. Cyrus is one of my fav characters AND PIXAL!!! Ah I love her so much. The Overlord is also kinda cool!!! It's amazing for such a short season, It's so amazing and underrated. And the intro is kinda good.

4. Crystalized

Crystalized is amazing, argue with a wall. I know people think it's rushed and so sudden but I love it! The different villains comming back, Harumis and Garmadons character development AND FRICKING SALLY. She is so underrated, I love her! The only think I really hate are the new Ninja. They're so annoying, for what... at least they don't annoy in the end anymore. THE END! Holy shit this is the best thing ever. I cried like a lil kid loosing its fav toy. It's so touching and sweet, inner steel playing in the background and CHRISTOFERN. I think it's an amazing end and Tommy created a masterpiece with this season.

3. Prime Empire

Underrated. Prime empire is SO underrated! It's literally so cool!! A giant video game season with amazing characters and an amazing concept. The NPCs breaking their roles AND SUPERSTAR ROCKIN JAY!!! He might be my fav thing ever. This season is a masterpiece and you cannot get me away from obsessing over this one.

2. Skybound

Another rather unpopular opinion but Skybound is amazing. I love this season more than myself. Nadakhan is an awesome Villain, with Master Chen my absolute favourite. I LOVE pirates and the vibe, that's why it catched my heart in like a second. Of course it's also sad asf, but Nadakhan as villain did a good job. His crew too! They're all so cool tbh. It's just so amazing I cannot explain it in words. AND THE INTRO AHHHHHHH!

1. Tournament of elements

I seriously love this SO MUCH. Tournament of elements has everything you need: A cool ass craizy stupid villain, A TON of amazing characters with amazing abilities. The villain has a cool dream and the final of the season is the best thing ever. All the dragons and the people... I am so glad that at least some of them (Skylor, Tox, Karlof, Neuro, Mr. Pale) are appearing later again. This season is whole perfection, it has everything I need and I do not have one negative point against this.

(OSC ask meme - IK I PICKED A BUNCH feel free not to answer all of them!!) 2, 3, 7, 13, 14, 16, 22, 36, 38, 39, 40

NO IM SO GLAD I LOVE ANSWERING SHIT I will put this under read more tho From this post

2 - Least favourite show? Already answered! (Its object terror) 3 - Underrated show? LEGENDARY ADVENTURES FOREVER ^^ Short so far, but REALLY funny stuff in that show. Some of the jokes can fall a Little Flat to me but its never anything bad LOL. GOT SOME RLY FUN CHARACTERS TOO If u have a bit of time to watch an object show Id say watch this one. Partially cuz of my Next Point (Honorable mention: ACTOE) 7 - Underrated character? Snowy LAF <3 I feel like a lotta ppl I know would like this guy. I tend to be Biased towards short high pitched voice Guys anyway (also hes gay. Like canonically. Just wanted to mention this cuz Its a Win For Me) 13 - How many characters do you think should be in an object show ideally? Something between 10 and 20 usually seems Fine to me. Anything above that kinda Crunches my brain unless Its a case like BFDI where its More Over Time Over Years but thats . Really just an exception to the rule TBH 14 - What do you care about most in an object show? Simple Answer probably but I wanna be able to tell that ppl are just Having fun and putting passion into their shows. Everything else I can Give Or take. Object shows are really just passion projects between very few ppl and should be treated as such I feel like memorable character designs could be pretty important too, this can be Tricky sometimes cuz No One Owes An Object but theres many ways to make em stick out from another Same object 16 - A show/character you love that everyone else hates? HFGHHHHH SPANGE . SPONGY. HE IS MY BABYGIRL. I would f/o him If I didnt already have two f/os. Both the show and fanbase treat him SO bad for no good reason (Him being mean after everyone bullied him is justified imo). Like Its gotten to a point where I hold back from talking abt him in servers cuz Im afraid of ppl making Annoying Uncalled for rude jokes or "well he sucks" kinda comments (yes this has happened before god fucking help me). I could go More into this but maybe thats for its Own post. Only maybe though 22 - What character has the best design?

Just two designs I quite Like cuz I cant think of other ones rn Mace the Merciless (Paper puppets take 2) cuz Im gay Love Lock (The Almost Valentinesly Object Show) cuz Im Gay AND I like the little lock mouth :) Also honorable mention: Loser <3 36 - Favourite scene? I could use one with one of my faves/fave ships but thats TOO EASY . So Ill mention the pin and coiny Pep Talk scene in bfb 6 cuz It makes me EMOTIONALLLL theyre the sweetest ever. Im sure theres other ones I like a Lot but this one just sticks with me the most 38 - Favourite rarepair? LEAFPIEEEE Leafy and Pie is a complete Crack Ship AND ALSO SNOWFRIES but both work GREAT imo. I brainrot abt these occasionally ESP SNOWBALL AND FRIES I was suprised that no one before me and nate (and sal hi sal) thought of this ship Leafy and Pie complete each other Very Well. Snowball and Fries make good Old Man Yaoi Also technically WinnerLoser is a rarepair cuz most ppl hc them as enemies or siblings LOL 39 - Favourite villain/antagonist? Four cuz I need them carnally etc (Ignoring post split cuz Its so lame how everyone just forgave him NO GET HIS ASS!!! HE SUCKS!!!!! THATS THE WHOLE APPEAL!!!!!!!!!!) I dont have time or energy to go Deeper into the Four Appeal but u can probably guess. Hes fun <3 40 - Overall thoughts on the community? I'm too old for this

Sam wants the deets and Deans like "Just accept it bro" and they both have so much issues

[ Crepe realizes what episode it is, that they're going after the Colt. Yes. I assume this is important. ]

Sam and Dean arguing about it, now with the concept of why Dean is the way he is

Cowboy Vampires. Yeehaw

Ohhh oh Vampire Drama

Anyways. Season finale ahead! I'll do it tomorrow since apparently its a 2 parter. Almost there folks.

[ecofmaster]

Making actually good updates to Clash Royale every day until Supercell fixes their stupid game

I wanted to do this one early because this needs a LOT of attention

Day 3: The Shop

The shop is really stupid. It's just a bombardment of dogshit offers, one tiny free reward, and some trade offers that are almost always a waste of a trade token. But that is about to change.

First off, the layout is dumb. This may come off as a bit nitpicky but I don't want to school for five minutes every time I want to collect my free cards of golden chest. Just move the money related offers to the bottom, it's not a big change, but it'll be just that tiny bit better for most, if not all players.

Speaking of the shop offers, most of them are so absurd it's funny. Remember when you could get a book of books along with a bunch of other rewards in the Pass Royale for only 5 bucks? Well now the book of books alone is worth 20 DOLLARS WTF. I haven't spent a cent on this game, but even I understand how stupidly outrageous that is. Not only do we need to lower the price of ALL of the shop offers, but we could also make more shop offers use gems instead of money. I noticed the other day that I hit 2000 gems because i was saving for a legendary king's chest, but it didn't seem that appealing to get mostly junk I dont need for 2500 gems, so I just bought a bunch of elite wild cards instead (a literal FRACTION of a SINGLE level up btw). Having more gem offers will bring incentive to save gems, besides getting elite wild cards. If you want something for a specific card that has something going on right now (say an evolution) you could use your gems on that, because that could be a bigger priority to you than wild cards. A spender could still buy some gems and then buy the shop offer if they really wanted to, but if they had enough gems saved up, they wouldn't need to. This could help those offers be better, because tbh the only people buying these are YouTubers or people who want to keep a maxed account at all times.

Speaking of non-money shop offers, the current gold and gem offers are trash. I already talked about the wild card offers which are all complete scams, but you have to buy them to have level 15, which at this point, is a necessary in a lot of situations. It's underwhelming for the price you have to pay to get it, overwhelming for the opponents you play against that don't have it, and is in general very stupid. It would be best to just half the cost of all these offers and the amount of wild cards used per each level up, and call it a day. It's a lazy solution, yes, but probably the best one in this case. The gold and gem offers though, need other changes. Yes, getting more bang for your buck could also be added here, but that wouldn't really help that much because who in their right mind is buying these things. I mean sure, there COULD be an offer you want, but that only happens once every blue moon. But it could be better if there was an increased chance in getting offers for cards in your deck. If you somehow didn't know already, Clash Royale records the deck you use, so it probably wouldn't be too hard to add a feature where the cards in your deck had higher chances of being in shop offers. There wouldn't be a single soul who wouldn't like that change, I guarantee.

Also please make the free stuff a bit better. It doesn't have to be big, but 1500 gold is NOTHING.

And finally we have the trades. I think we can give these the same treatment as the f2p currency offers by just upping the chances of cards in your deck to be in the receiving side of a trade offer.

Shop fixed.

I'm better than Supercell

LovelyLocke Leaf Green Part 8

OK, apparently all my Silph Co. stuff got lost in the Void, so I have no record of that. Long story short, I hate warp puzzles, Gary was wandering around and was doing fuckall to help with the whole Team Rocket bullshit, and is generally a dick. Giovanni didn't kill another one of my pokemon and sweet Peach was avenged, got the Master Ball which i cant use because it's against nuzlocke rules. But part of my rules is that I have to BATTLE the legendaries, so theres fun.

Where my footage picks up is inside the Fighting Dojo, which is a hysterical concept to me because you literally just go into someones fuckin karate practice space and kick everyones asses, so they're like "Were not a fuckin league gym anymore, why did you come in and defeat us all, take a pokemon and get the hell out!"

Welcome to the team, Marvin (I've always thought Hitmonlee looked like Marvin the Martian lol)

Sabrina is next on the badge count, and she is my favorite leader. she's a tough battle, Psychic pokemon are so goddamn powerful in this gen. but nevertheless, the team got the job done! Badge 5 (6 technically but it makes no goddamn sense to fight Koga first since im pretty sure hes got stronger pokemon)

So, in order to get the EXP Share, I need 50 pokemon in my dex. There's several pokemon in my box that could be evolved, so I'll work on evolving them.

starting with The Missle! heck yeah, ive never actually had a Hypno!

...... THE FIRST BATTLE AFTER HE EVOLVES?! DOES POKEMON GOD HATE ME

The Missle the Hypno

Level 11 - Level 26

After all our training, I think we're finally ready to face Koga. Lets get this bread!

C'mon Nintendo, Let the Hype Man say Fuck!

Koga's gym is so fuckin bullshit dude. I dont think I encountered a single poison pokemon until i got to the man himself! so frustrating man. But whatever, he's beaten, 6 badges in the bank! Blaine is next up, so I think I need to start preparing for the last two gyms and the E4.

The EXP Share would really help this process, so I got back into the Evolving train. Let's work on Omelette, welcome to the-

God. Fucking. Damn it.

Omelette the Exeggcute

Level 24 - Level 24

........ Idk how to tell you this bud. But I don't think you're going to get to propose today.

big mood. Thanks for the Fly though

So many Evolutions this update! The most exciting being Arson though, of course. Get Me Them Good Good Fire Boy!

That's it for this update, I think. Next update will be soon, its just a matter of getting my footage from my Ally to a computer to format posts. I'm pleased though, this run is going well. Hopefully I can carry this momentum into the Elite 4 and finish with a victory.
