yes there’s a typo in my post and i fixed it but also I don’t actually care that much because the word sounds like it should be spelled “cemetary”. what’s a “cemetery”. that doesn’t even look like a real word. also it doesn’t sound like that why is it spelled like that

breath: something you can take. a noun
breathe: something you do. a verb
there is a difference, my good fellows, both in meaning and in pronunciation o7
breath vs breathe is kind of weird, because. TECHNICALLY a breath is not a physical thing. It's intrinsically an action, but in the case of Breath it's almost like an. idea-action? you can't have Breath without the implication of action, BUT in sentence structure it is, for all intents and purposes, a noun, and treated as such.
you can take a breath, but you can't take a breathe. and similarly, you can breathe, the action, but you can't breath. it would be like saying, i am going to hold this [verb]. as if it were a noun. if that makes sense?

I had a dream that a new Kuro reboot came out and most of the English voice actors stayed the same and it had better writing and it had this absolutely beautiful art style. I love the manga style but the dream reboot had these delicate thin lines and detailed eyes and hair that really worked well with the frilly intricate boy Lolita esq outfits the show often puts characters in. The whole thing had very detailed shading too. Reminded me a little of Castlevania? I need to draw what it looked like.

Tallulah’s letter to Sunny (which was bad btw someone really needs to talk to Tallulah about it, the letter was just mean and unnecessary) gets really bad when you compare it to Sunny’s letter (and phil+chay) to Tallulah. Sunny’s was kind, but it was especially young it was filled with grammar mistakes, diction was tiny (small word choice, and words were short), emoticons, constant misspellings, that letter was very obviously written by someone 8 at the most. While Tallulah’s letter was long, proper grammar, huge diction, it comes off as someone at the youngest of 13 wrote it, but even adding in wiggle room for Tallulah just being a more mature writer she’s still very obviously much older than Sunny.
Kids are mean, they just are, and they’ll recognize like Tallulah did that their being mean, but if no one stops them they’ll just keep going. Tallulah is a kid, who is genuinely bullying this much younger kid, and she understands that fully as she states, but she is also blaming Sunny for this behavior. No one is telling her otherwise, to her she’s not mean normally but she’s mean to Sunny so obviously Sunny’s existence is triggering her trauma. Tallulah isn’t mean, so to Tallulah being mean is on part the fault of the other person (She’s a kid, kids work like that it). Someone just needs to have a proper talk with her, someone that she trusts and cares about, it doesn’t have to be Phil, it just needs to be someone.
Think about this from Sunny’s perspective, they purposefully withheld themselves when talking to Tallulah for a chance to be loved and then were told that they still were too much, and would be too much for a long time. Sunny got told very directly that it was their fault, that they were upsetting Tallulah by existing, and they can not be loved right now. Any attempts to talk to Tallulah are testing her patience, and she should just go away and never come back again. Sunny’s so much younger then Tallulah, so much younger then all the eggs but Em & Pepito, she’s just a little kid.
As a note I really adore Tallulah (my little darling) and I just want an adult to have a conversation with her, kids are like this but that doesn’t mean it should be left unchecked. If anyone says anything seriously mean to Sunny or Tallulah on this post it will be a block, I know twitters comfortable sending death threats to toddlers but you shouldn’t be.

Agsudisg I'm so glad you liked it, Kazi, I literally sat down the moment I finished reading and started drawing cuz you freaking killed me, I MEAN, vox being stubborn and denying help, and Alastor stubbornly giving him the aid he needs, but crouched in their respective toxic egos and self-image? So delicious. Alastor, who needs to know why he was left behind, and vox who's desperately pouring himself into the new thing... Ahhhh...
The part where he implies he really was running off to die...and Alastor goes all soft...the shared frequency, the antenna petting... I reread that multiple times bc it's so good...and the claws, the claws, vox denies wanting help from alastor to the last, but the claws!
(also we tots need full seasons and reruns of 'Let's Shit on Vox', I bet Alastor even encourages to call in with more info, not that anyone would bc they're too scared. Hey, does carmilla have to listen his obsession LOL)
Btw for the artist questions, if you want, 9, 14, 30?
YOU NEVER FAIL TO MAKE ME GUSH, ES AAAA...oh lemme tell you when I lock-in, i do NOT fuck around with toxic old men yaoi. When I get better at writing, I hope to capture all their glory✨
I have never really written in this particular weird genre, I don't even know what to call it? Disgustingly intimate love/hate? At least, that's what I aspire for it to be XD
Heheh the part where "Alastor goes all soft" is also a little on the part of RR!AU characterization, so it's a bit exaggerated. He's trying to ween his way in appealing to Vox again, but RR!AU Vox is just so tired. Alastor keeps bringing up the past....This was kind of a wacky scenario to write because it does skip/make you infer a lot of stages of development, but the AU is close enough to canon that I think it's not far to imagine filling in the gaps hhh....
LMFAO yes, Alastor def encourages call-ins, "The 'Let's Shit on Vox' show, your one-stop opportunity to diss Hell's most saturated overlord!" -- on the rare occasion someone actually called in, Alastor killed whoever said something off about Vox that wasn't to his "flavor" of hate.
Carmilla has already read through these two idiots and just rolls her eyes at their immaturity. If she's there for Alastor's radio show, she's just in the background, utterly done and convinced they're playing everything up for entertainment at this point. Now that has me thinking, if Alastor ever started feeling something unfamiliar and god-forbid genuinely *good*(????), he would probably consult Rosie or Carmilla for it first........and Vox would ask Charlie.....oh..........
Aaaand Artist Questions under the cut, TYSM for the ask <33
9. What are your file name conventions?
I have terrible file organization. Many of them are named "a", "aa3", "asgv", "fhgh", or other random keyboard smashes. Recently, I have a bad habit of naming files "sketch1", "sk1", "skht1", or some misspelled way-- it's gotten so bad I'm up to "sketch22".... I find things by icon only.
14. Any favorite motifs?
Straight edges and shapes, maybe? I started drawing with an anime style though I'm mostly into western media-- I think it's very satisfying to have nice shape design/silhouettes though, but I don't draw in a super cartoony or exaggerated style so it's kind of hard to tell that I like and have fun doing it. I'm kind of scattered and like to dip my foot into everything unfortunately.
30. What piece of yours do you think is underrated?
None really, but if I had to pick one for HH, maybe this one.
For my older art, definitely this one. I mean, I don't love it anymore, but I really thought I ATE with the concept at the time.

BOSS BATTLE!!!
Despite Syren and Charlie being like, my main and most important characters, I haven't actually drawn them in a little bit. I'll put lore in the read more like usual. I guess I've never actually explained who they are, thinking back.
So Syren and Charlie are these rag-tag duo of ex-royalty adventurers. Syren left voluntarily cause she wanted a life of thrills and she's a bit of an adrenaline junky, whereas Charlie was exiled for treason after questioning the late queen. (His mother, queen of the underground capital) Afterwards, he went to seek help from the strongest kingdom he could think of (The ocean capital) and met Syren. Being...Still pretty much royalty, and actually having a decent grasp of combat and magic use, they agreed to go explore the surface together to get stronger and assemble a team strong enough to fight against whatever the underground capital is planning. Btw, Syren's not using her powers in this pic, but her power is she can split up her body into fish in a pseudo-shape shifting manner. Her last name is actually Casio, a misspelling (lol) of Caesio, the kind of fish she's based off. A kind of fish that schools, thus her power. I don't know the exact date or year I made Syren, but it must of been somewhere around 2015-16. To this day I am astonished a design I think is genuinely pretty nice came from dumb little 13 year old me. Her design hasn't even really changed much, aside from she used to have a classic silver fish tail. (also, it doesn't always look like it, be she wears glasses!) ...Fun fact, Charlie is actually MUCH older of a character than Syren, although his design DID change a fair bit.

RAHHHHHH here are the anglestone doodles i was talking about!! i was going to finish these and make them look a bit better than just rough sketches but ended up not being able to im so sorry (anyway im also using this as an excuse to talk just a little bit about my designs for them)
I think after exandroth happened, peters eyes would always have a faint yellow glow to them that would reflect in his glasses, and when he would fully knock out and let exandroth take over you wouldnt be able to see his eyes like that one episode of gravity falls where dipper couldnt tell if stanfords eyes were bill-ified because his glasses tinted over.
Also he has freckles. So many freckles.
Rumi means the world to me btw but I also fully headcanon them as having a devil like tail to match the horns? Same sort of rock crystalized pattern but as a tail and they fully use it to flirt WOAHGHH what who said that huh
anyway its 2:30 am for me rn so if this is misspelled weirdly phrased or genuinely out of character for how i normally write im so sorry i sat down to finally work on the drawing tonight and finish them and my free trial of clip studio ended up crashing so instead of posting i decided to just give these to you how they are sorry ffor the long ask in your askbox yet again GODSPEED SOLDIER o7
RAHSHHSHAHBDHSBDHSBDHBSSBD *literally explodes into a kajillion pieces*
HE!!! THE BOY
THEM!!! THE GUYS
AUGSHDHSHDBHDDHSHHSBSBDB
ACTUALLY LOVE THESE SO MUCH IM FRAMING THEM ON MY IMAGINARY WALL

i have generally pretty impeccable spelling, so writing characters who *aren't* good at spelling can be difficult. i'm not bragging except maybe i am a little, but anyway. i dont generally make fun of misspellings unless theyre funny/obviously typos, but if you genuinely misspell a word around me just know that i am nonjudgmentally filing it away in my brain under a folder entitled "plausible spelling mistakes". i also have a mental list of more general rules for how these mistakes happen, including misspellings of common word parts (roots, suffixes, etc) so that i can build plausible mistakes from scratch if i haven't actually seen someone misspell a particular long word. im normal btw

Went through my blog again for the funsies and discovered an old, old tag game from 2016. And boy, am I shaking my head at it. Not only is 17-year-old me hilariously and stubbornly convinced she's straight, she's also very self-deprecating and generally not in a good place.
So I thought: why not answer these questions again, over seven years later, just to see how things have changed?
So here goes. The update.
MOST RECENT:
Drink: Water! I have a glass next to me right now and I'm staying nice and hydrated :) Phone call: Mom, earlier this afternoon, to make sure I'm still healthy and haven't died from acute Moved Out And Living Unsupervised Disease. Shockingly, I'm alive and well. Text: Dad, joking about the Berlin lioness boar thing. I still refuse to believe it was a boar BTW. I don't know what it was, but those pictures do NOT look like a boar.
Song you listened to: Saosin – "You're Not Alone" Time you cried: You know, I genuinely don't remember. Might've been weeks ago. I barely cry anymore these days, except from laughter or the occasional tearing up over a heartwarming scene in a show.
Dated someone twice: No, and unless the circumstances were very special, I wouldn't. If the ship has sailed, it has sailed for a reason. Been cheated on: Single, thriving, in my lane, cannot be cheated on if I don't have a partner. Peace and love on Planet Earth. Lost someone special: Lost touch with many friends over the years. Staying in touch is still hard. But honestly, some of them turned out to not be that special after all in the first place and a lot have stayed too, so really, it's fine. Been depressed: Nah. Been drunk and thrown up: Still don't like alcohol, still don't drink ✌️ Your three favourite colours: Purple! And pink, and the third one…maybe red!
IN THE LAST YEAR, HAVE YOU:
Made a new friend: So many. So so many. Fallen out of love: Yep! Laughed until you cried: Just this week alone! Met someone who changed you: I think so! Found out who your true friends are: Yes. And to the people who turned out not to be—thanks for making it easier to watch you leave right now. Found out someone’s talking about you: In the "bringing up my existence" way? Yes. Badly? No—someone probably did, but not my problem.
EXTRAS
How many people from your fb list do you know irl: What Facebook? Do you have any pets: Not at the moment. Hard to keep any in a dorm room. I'd like to maybe get a small dog someday though! Do you want to change your name: Not anymore. When I was little I used to hate my name because everyone kept misspelling or mispronouncing it, but now I like it even if people still get it wrong all the time. Sometimes it still feels weird and othering, in an irrational sort of way, but I can't imagine myself being called anything else. What did you do for your last birthday: Had drinks with some people from my orientation group in one guy's dorm apartment. Casually came out as bi over a game of Never Have I Ever. Wound up at a party even though I had an 8:30 AM class the next morning. Zero regrets. What were you doing last night at midnight? Sitting on my bed and hitting play on the brand-new Meet Me @ the Altar song that dropped last night!!! Name something you can’t wait for: MM@TA EU tour in October! I've been obsessed with them for two years and finally they come here to play some shows and the first time I saw the announcement I legit busted a lip in my excitement. Unfortunately not a hyperbole.
Last time you saw your mum: Last time I visited home—early May I think? What is one thing you wish you could change about your life: Better executive functions so I struggle less with getting stuff done, especially uni stuff and household chores. Currently trying to do something about that, actually! If I'm really lucky I might get an ADHD diagnosis in the foreseeable future and maybe meds…? What are you listening to rn: Fall Out Boy – "We Didn't Start the Fire" Have you ever talked to a person named Tom: Often. It's quite a common name where I live! What’s getting on your nerves rn: One word: THESIS. Which I for some reason struggle to do anything about. Blood type: Still unknown! Nickname: Several shorter forms of my civilian name. On here, Ruby. Zodiac Sign: Aquarius Pronouns: she/her Favourite tv show: At the moment: ATLA (and Legend of Korra), Ted Lasso, Good Omens. Probably more I'm forgetting. High school: Graduated in 2016! College: In my Masters! I have an undergraduate degree in law now :D Long or short hair: Long, down to my hips. I used to have short hair as a kid, but I’ve always wanted long hair. Height: 159 cm or 5′2.5′’. Do you have a crush on someone: I try to tell myself that no, I'm just very fond of the person. Platonically. What do you like about yourself: I'm creative and adaptable! I'm good at winging it when the situation requires it, and I usually get things figured out one way or another. I'm a hype woman for my friends, and I like the way I can find joy and excitement in all corners of life. Also, not to toot my own horn but I'm really proud of my style right now! Right or left handed: Right-handed. First surgery: None. Piercing: None. First best friend: Probably Rebecca, in first grade. It’s a shame I moved away, I wonder what she’s doing now. First sport you joined: Ballet, when I was five or six. Kept doing it until early fifth grade, then changed to horseback riding. First vacation: Probably to my grandparents’ vacation home somewhere at the North Sea. Don’t remember a thing though, I was one or something.
RIGHT NOW:
Eating: Nothing. Drinking: Water, still! I’m about to: Hopefully write a bit more for the mystery project 👀 Listening to: Meet Me @ the Altar – "Give It Up"
WANT:
Kids: Yes, eventually. I'd like a stable partner first (although if push comes to shove I wouldn't mind raising my kids solo), and most importantly I'd like to be my own person for a couple of years and not be bound by duty to everyone else. Travel, explore the world and myself, get all that out of my system so I can truly go into motherhood with no regrets. Get married: Yes, if I find the right person to do it with. Career: Study law and work for the EU or an NGO.
WHICH IS BETTER:
Lips or eyes: Eyes. I don't pay much attention to lips outside of someone having a cute smile! Hugs or kisses: Kisses are nice, but I still prefer hugs! Taller or shorter: IDGAF. I still love my tall lanky noodle men, but I'm not picky. With women, even less so. Girl is taller than me? Awesome, great for being held. Shorter than me? CUTE. Older or younger: Around my age, rest doesn't matter. I'm at an age where anything between 20-30 is fair game, but any younger or older and it gets creepy. Romantic or spontaneous: A mixture of both. Nice stomach or nice arms: If the person is nice, their body will be nice too. It's an automatic process. I don't make the rules. Sensitive or loud: A combination of both! Troublemaker or hesitant: Secret third thing where they're chaotic but also too shy to really make a move.
HAVE YOU EVER
Kissed a stranger: Does "someone I talked to all evening but didn't know before that and didn't meet again afterwards" count? Drank liquor: Tried a bit, same as everybody. Found it nasty. Didn't try again. Lost glasses/contacts: Don't have any to lose. (Given the way I've been treating my eyes: yet?) Had sex on the first date: I'm asexual and I refuse. Broke someone’s heart: Yes, and let's leave it at that. Turned someone down: I'm a woman existing in public. Having to turn down random men is a recurring part of my experience. Cried when someone died: Not really—I seem to shut down and go blank more than anything else. I used to feel guilty about it, but now I've learned that everyone processes grief and loss differently and it doesn't mean I care less. Fallen for a friend: Yes, repeatedly, it has yet to end well, and it will probably happen again.
DO YOU BELIEVE IN
Yourself: Mostly yes. There are some things I need help with before I can unlock my full potential, but one thing I've learned is that I always manage in the end. And once I get proper help, I have no doubt I'll be just fine. Miracles: I don't like to rely on them, but I do believe that unlikely good things can and do happen. Love at first sight: Not for myself, I need to get to know a person before I fall for them. I do believe in attraction at first sight though. Heaven: It's a nice thought, but whether or not it exists doesn't matter to me. Our task in life is the same regardless: try to be kind and treat others well and hopefully leave the world a slightly better place. Santa Claus: No, and never really have. My parents never claimed he was real; my Christmas presents always came from the family that visited on Christmas Eve. Kissing on a first date: Did it once, it was okay. I think it's one of those "take it or leave it" things—if the chemistry is right, sure, go for it, but it's definitely not for everyone in every situation.

i made a comment on a fake dhar mann sketch video on tiktok and the responses im getting are genuinely insane. okay so i have to explain the video first, it was one of those videos where they reposted a video from youtube or something with like slime cutting or mobile game underneath. and the video above was like in the style of a dhar mann sketch, but it was very obviously not dhar mann (i'll get to that in a sec). anyways the video clip is of this dude whos stuck in traffic and he's late to the courthouse and the girl in the car in front of him is flipping him off for honking at her, cause they're both stuck in traffic there's nothing either of them can do. and the girls friend finds a glass cup in the glovebox and the girl driving throws it out the window cause she's like "who cares, i don't want it anymore", the guy drives forward a bit, his tire pops. obviously he's mad, not saying he can't be mad, but he gets out of his car and starts screaming at the girl cause he's like about to lose his kids and he's stuck in traffic. and like obviously, don't do that, but like i kinda get where he's coming from, whatever, its a fake video. but then he goes on to rip her out of the car and shoot her in the head later in the video, and i'm like woah wtf. so i make a comment that says, "bros anger issues are probably why he's losing his kids", like haha whatever, i only made the comment cause no one was pointing out the obvious. anyways the part i'm concerned about is the 41 replies i've gotten to that comment, all basically saying that he was justified in resorting to murder. like what the actual fuck??? here's the word for word conversation i had with someone in the comments
them- "How is the guy wrong. She blocked him, flipped him off and popped his tire AND STILL ACTS ENTITLED" (they misspelled popped btw so i corrected it here)
me- "okay but all of that doesn't justify murder??? like a normal person doesn't resort to murder in that situation?? 🤨"
them- "You wouldn't resort to murder in that situation?"
me- "no??? wtf are you saying you would??? 🤨"
and i shit you not, they genuinely replied back with "Yes", like i genuinely wish i was making that up. other replies i got that i didn't bother replying to were, "stop trying to make an excuse 💀 you'd be mad to. he's about to lose his kids, he clearly cares a lot about. because of some girl who blocked him off," and "nah, he was calm until the wouldn't move. Girls are obviously in the wrong ☕" and, "Dude got cut off is stuck in traffic just got a tire popped and is losing his kids in 15 minutes If you think you could stay calm you are wrong" and like i genuinely can not tell if these are bait or not, because if they are that's shitty but whatever i guess, but if they aren't? what the actual hell is wrong with people that they think it's justified to shoot someone over popping your tire and flipping you off? like yeah, he can be mad and i somewhat get the screaming, but shooting her in the head?? over a tire?? like i get you're about to lose your kids but in what world is that the correct choice? in what world does that even somewhat resemble a correct choice? i don't know, i just had to get this off my chest because this is actually insane, maybe these are all just bait comments and the autism in me can't discern that. i really hope that's the case, idk man

every day on this site I see another post that makes me think about that ‘the reading comprehension on this site is piss poor’ post and it makes me want to slam my head into a wall, or barring that, grab the person who made the post so I can sit them down and have a conversation about what the words ‘bad faith’ mean
#this is about that misspelling insect post btw#if you don’t know what it is be thankful#the fact that the person made another post indignant about it#doubling down on it#holy shit#being that committed to a bad faith reading of not only the other person in the conversation but everyone who thought you were overreacting?#what kind of world do you live in where you genuinely think that of others?#except I genuinely refuse to believe that level of bad faith could be anything but deliberate performative outrage#no one’s reading comprehension is that bad#no one’s#like the humor is in that an innocent typo turns a normal word into something far more sinister#which is darkly humorous especially when said in public#its perfectly acceptable not to be comfortable with making fun of typos but when the typo is void of identifiers it’s a victimless crime#and treating abstract fandom shit as ultimate moral arbiters reeks of untreated scrupulosity#i say as someone who suffers from scrupulosity this shit was a method of self harming for me as a 15 year old and that is textbook ocd shit#the performative outrage is a way of self assuring that you’re not a bad person and you can’t be because you’re doing all the right things#and calling out all the right people#what’s funny is like how the blocklist ranges from ‘terf’ to ‘pedophile’ to ‘likes a children’s show character I hate’#like Jesus Christ get some perspective#tbh tho I do feel bad for them because frankly the post probably went farther than the op could have anticipated#and the nature of internet hate mobs is that they treat being easily offended by inane shit as something worth harassing someone over#anyway leave them to their obsessive performance to appease their scrupulosity that’s suffering enough#i remember what that was like and it was miserable#discourse#i guess

(Two things, 1. This is my first time requesting so I'm sorry if this is not the thing to do it, and 2. Sorry if somethings is misspelled or grammatically incorrect, eng is not my first language:p)
May I request some of the bros, specially Mammon, Luci and Satan, with a MC who's similar to Lucifer in some aspects (like, some of their manners are the same as his and sometimes they're little bit too strict) and after a while they discover that its bc MC is also an older sibling. And (only if you want) meeting their younger sibling, please 🙏
Btw love your works ♡♡♡
Lucifer Number 2~
(Feat. GN!MC and the Demon Bros)
✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦ ✦
Lucifer
It doesn't occur to Lucifer how similar the two of you are, but the first thing he realizes is how pleasant conversations with you can be. You both share common interests, your tastes suit his own, and you seem to be the only competent person in this house.
You're the responsible type, and he likes it. He'll sometimes find you scolding his brothers for their behavior too, and as amusing of a sight as that may be, he doesn't want you to be burdened with their idiocy.
AND you're the eldest sibling in your household? Cheers to that. You too know the weight of being the responsible oldest, and the role one must take to ensure their siblings grow up well. You too know that you'd rather your siblings have things easier than you did.
But there's one thing he finds annoying... You can NEVER speak your feelings, and act as if it’d kill you to do so. He can respect secrecy when it's appropriate, but Lucifer would like to know what's on your mind. Not only that, but you can be HORRIBLY headstrong. There's nothing that can stray you away from what you've already decided.
"MC, I request that you take a few days off from school to do as you please. I've already spoken with Diavolo and your professors, and you've been given an excuse. I know you'll study anyway, so I've dropped off your assignments in your room. But... you should rest. It isn't good for you to be pushing yourself so hard. Hm? You're calling me a hypocrite?"
Mammon
As if one Lucifer wasn't enough. Now there's TWO of em?! Why's his luck gotta be so lousy!
Definitely the first to realize how much like Lucifer you are, and was SHOOK. Seriously, what gives?! What horrors exist in the human world that could've made you like THAT..?
Ever since you showed up, it's been impossible to get away with anything! He can't sneak out of the house because you're always there somehow, you tattle on him when you catch him leaving anyone's room, and you won't even let him copy your homework! What gives?!
Avoids you like the plague. You're no fun! There's only rare moments when you're kinda okay, and he likes those the best. The times when you're kinda sensitive and you'll drop the high and mighty act. But then you're back to being a pest!
"For the billionth time, I ain't got time to study! There's money to be made, and a guy like me ain't gonna waste a second lookin' at a dumb book when I could be- H-Huh?! You're gonna call Lucifer?! N-now, there's no need to be so hasty, right? Oi!! I'm sorry, damn it-!"
Levi
What's the deal with Lucifer number two? As comedic of a trope as that may be, Levi doesn't really care for having two nagging types in the house. Especially a human...
When you're in his room, all you do is nitpick about how he should tidy up and open a window! Don't you know that an otaku's room is his pride and joy?! It's a sacred space not to be trampled on by the opinions of a normie!!!
But still... he has to admit that even if you don't get all the stuff he's talking about, you at least try to understand it. And there are even some of his interests that you're genuinely invested in!
You might be a pain in the neck and harass him about annoying things, but he guesses he can deal with it if you'll actually sit through a TSL marathon with him...
"I-I'll lend you this manga, so make sure you read it! And when you're finished with that, I'll lend you the spin-off series by the author's brother! I know you'll like it, since you're interested in gritty stuff. Oh, and- Huh? My laundry? Y-yeah.... I'll do that.."
Satan
You are... surprisingly good company. Satan enjoys talking to you over afternoon tea, and the two of you share stories between one another.
But still, he can't shake the feeling that there's something... unpleasantly familiar about your personality. It isn't until you say something that sounds suspiciously similar to what Lucifer would say that he realizes who you remind him of. And oh, he hates it.
Tries playing pranks on you, but somehow they never go to plan. How that is is beyond him, but you never fall for anything! No matter how sweet his smile, you're always rightfully suspicious. You're annoyingly meticulous about checking your surroundings, and you're so aware of yourself that it's troublesome! Be more gullible!!
The king of petty has decided that its now his life goal to make you fall for at least one of his pranks. He doesn't care how elaborate he has to make it, or how unrewarding the payoff may be. He'll make you pay for seeing his brother in two places at once.
"MC, would you like to join me this afternoon for a book reading? Though, I'd love it if you could read this book in particular. I think you'll find it very-.... Hm? 'Isn't this the cursed book that makes you grow hair all over your body', you ask? Ahaha.... tch."
Asmo
Come now, there can't be TWO killjoys in the house! That's way too depressing!! It was funny at first to see that there's someone who can match the scary Lucifer's energy, but now it's becoming a nuisance!
You won't even go to the countless parties he's invited you to! Hell, you barely even give yourself room to mess around a little? Isn't it boring being so tightly wound? You're in luck, because the adorable Asmo-chan knows the PERFECT way to let loose~
You'll RARELY let him close to you, and that's usually when you're tired of him harassing you. Then he gets the honor of playing with your hair while you've got no energy to fight back! He'll style it wonderfully for you!
Also nags you to take better care of yourself. You're not a demon, so you have to care for your health! These late night study sessions are giving you bags under your eyes! And stop taking on so many extracurricular activities!
"Geez, MC! I didn't think you'd die from overworking, but that's the path you're headed on! You really are like Lucifer, you know? That being said, I'll do my best to make sure you relax! Shall we begin~?"
Beel
Beel may not be too bothered by Lucifer's strictness, but that doesn't mean he's immune to it. To think that even a human can be like that...
It's nice to see that you can take care of yourself, but aren't you working too hard? Your grades are good and you've got many interesting talents, but you also have to properly rest.
Has started bringing you snacks on the regular. And don't even think about skipping meals, because he won't allow it. He'll literally pick you up and bring you to the table if he has to. And if you're staying up late to study? He'll carry you to bed. Don't try to protest.
Beel is your babysitter now and there's nothing you can do about it. It's good to be responsible, but don't think about trying to take care of everyone else if you can't care for yourself. Now eat these twelve meat buns he bought for you.
"MC, let's eat lunch together. I know you were going to skip because I heard you talking to Solomon earlier, and I won't let you. Ah, don't worry about not having money, because I've already bought you some lunch. Let's eat in the courtyard."
Belphie
NO.... IT CAN'T BE... THIS HAS TO BE A NIGHTMARE....HE WANTS TO WAKE UP....
You're such a drag. You harass him to attend student council meetings, but him about his studies, and won't let him avoid a single obligation he has. What are you, his mother?
Has 100% joined forces with Satan to try to make you fall for many, many unsuccessful pranks. Are you curse proof or something? When he tried a '10 hour bed-head' spell on you, it just rebounded right to him! Then he found out that you'd borrowed a spell repelling amulet from Solomon and realized just how prepared you are...
When you aren't bothering his entire soul by trying to make him do things, you're actually nice to talk to. You're knowledgeable, you pay attention to the people around you, and you can always read a room. He likes to ask you for advice sometimes.
"Aren't you tired of being like that all the time? So... attentive, I mean. You should just take a nap some time. Or better yet, take the week off. Maybe I'll teach you how to properly relax? Then you might finally be able to take that stick out of your- ow... What're you hitting me for?"

Hi! Just found your blog and so far i loved pretty much all of your analysis', they're just so complex and deep in the characters feelings and motivations.
May i ask, do you think that there was ever a real chance that Robb might have survived and triumphed in the end, or his journey was just doomed from the moment that he was crowned King? I think that most people give way too much credit to Robb's marriage with Jeyne as the beginning of his downfall, but i believe that the Freys would've end up betraying him wheter he married one of them or not. What do you think that were his fatal flaws? There was something that he could've done that would actually give him a real chance of winning? What about Catelyn, could she have done anything to prevent her son's tragic fate?
(Sorry for any misspellings btw, English is not my first language)
No worries! I'm a monoglot, so anyone who speaks more than one language is already doing better than I am.
First, I want to direct you to @turtle-paced's excellent post here, discussing the author's thumb on the scale to bring down Robb Stark. I don't want to simply repeat all the points of that post, but to summarize in my own words, while Robb as a character definitely made mistakes, the author set up a considerable number of dominoes to be knocked over toward the downfall of Robb and the Stark cause during the War of the Five Kings.
Anyway, I do want to point out (since that post does not discuss it) what you bring up regarding Robb's marriage. Thankfully, GRRM has already spoken to this point:
We know that Roose Bolton had already taken Walda Frey to wife before Robb married Jeyne Westerling. Does this then mean that Walder Frey had already planned to ally himself with Bolton to murder Robb before Robb’s marriage betrayal, or was his anger towards Robb and his reasoning towards his own family as to why Robb had to be killed more than just a pretext, and the genuine reason for the Red Wedding?
“What if” questions are impossible to answer with any certainty … [sic] knowing old Lord Walder’s character, it is likely he would have searched for some way to disentangle himself from a losing cause sooner or later, but his desertion would likely have taken a less savage form. The Red Wedding was motivated by his desire to wash out the dishonor that was done him ... [sic]
That "losing cause" is accurately outlined in "Arya X" ACOK:
Ser Harys Haigh, who was a Frey on his mother’s side, nodded vigorously. “If Lord Tywin could defeat a seasoned man like Stannis Baratheon, what chance will our boy king have against him?” He looked round to his brothers and cousins for support, and several of them muttered agreement.
“Someone must have the courage to say it,” Ser Hosteen said. “The war is lost. King Robb must be made to see that.”
Roose Bolton studied him with pale eyes. “His Grace has defeated the Lannisters every time he has faced them in battle.”
“He has lost the north,” insisted Hosteen Frey. “He has lost Winterfell! His brothers are dead …”
And then -
“Had Stannis won, all might have been different,” Ronel Rivers said wistfully. He was one of Lord Walder’s bastards.
“Stannis lost,” Ser Hosteen said bluntly. “Wishing it were otherwise will not make it so. King Robb must make his peace with the Lannisters. He must put off his crown and bend the knee, little as he may like it.”
Late- and post-ACOK Robb was a doomed Robb, no question about it, and this was primarily due to the fall of Winterfell and the defeat of Stannis at the Blackwater (though the critical military undermining of Robb at Duskendale was yet to happen, of course). It's not that marriage to Jeyne was a political boon, or even a political nonevent, for him - it provided the Freys a credible excuse to withdrawing support, and unknowingly gave Robb a mother-in-law actively working to ensure he could not father a child who could be used as a rallying point for Stark resistance in the future - but this was a cause Walder Frey was already trying to remove himself from before any new of the "dishonor" to the Twins reached Harrenhal, a cause that to Walder Frey and others looked lost.

im gonna talk about that oc guy okay i think hes fun. nobody asked, but youre the one who follows me, so suffer. also his friends cause theyre kind of an integral part of his story
so his names diesel, his age? who gives a shit/ old enough to where people tell him to "get a job freeloader." hes super bisexual, "hates" women, and definitely uses 4chan. hes got like an obsession with revenge and keeps an ongoing list of anyone who has ever even slightly wronged him.
he carries a gun around that nobody, including him, knows exactly how he got. (he absentmindedly and completely accidentally shoplifted it from a store that was definitely laundering money.) hell shoot it to look cool but hes a huge pussy and would never aim it at someone/something living. he has no qualms with shooting people with arrows or using melee weapons, however.
his best friend is a waitress named peanut (that is her legal name, peanut winfrey, no middle name). she has no idea why she hangs out with him. pity? loneliness? morbid curiosity? just the feeling of being superior to someone? fuck if she knows, but it certainly couldnt be genuine enjoyment of his company /s. //tbh i guess i dont hate peanut either now that i think about it.
anyways diesels obviously not his real name, he just goes by it to make himself sound more cool or "tough." he never got a drivers license but if he did, it wouldve listed his name has dakota winfred (no relation to peanut). thats not a typo btw a few generations back on diesels dads side, someone misspelled their last name on the census and theyve been winfred ever since.
they have another friend named laslow who really wants to join a circus and may or may not be the biological father to many, many children hes never met (listen, he doesnt know for sure either). he doesnt have a last name to his knowledge. diesel has a very on and off relationship with laslow (platonic or romantic? its anyones guess) and peanut stays out of it except when its funny.
laslow is also like a magnet for freaky occurrences and bad shit happening to him, but hes like a super atheist and refuses to acknowledge any of it happening. hes the type of guy to get raptured, come back, and remain an atheist.
diesel is religious but only when its convenient for him and otherwise refers to himself as god, supposedly ironically. he uses the words bitch and cuck like commas and has been banned from nearly everywhere you can get banned from in their state (peanuts workplace included, but nobody gives a shit there, so he still comes and visits often to bother her).
peanut is somewhat superstitious, but her assumptions are strangely dead-accurate a solid 50% of the time. shes also raised catholic but doesnt really talk about it.
but yeah basically they smoke together and get into hilarious shenanigans
