#the network in this game is crazy lmao

[takamoris]

Don’t fuck with us FFXIV Fans- We don’t even like the game.

[emblazons]

Honestly? No. I don’t understand byler doubt. Even if it didn’t happen I would just end up critical of both networks and/or creative ability for throwing away a clear setup—the same exact way the creators of Game of Thrones did with Jon Snow’s parentage being meaningful for his overarching narrative.

I’m not gonna sit there thinking I’m "delusional" (ugh), crazy or saw something that wasn’t there, or be shamed by some shippers of a couple who "won" because someone fumbled the setup along the way. Creators lose their own plots all the time. We are not backing down to the lowest common denominator in our media just because some mfs are homophobic LMAO

Horror/Mystery/Exploration Youtubers

pretty much the people I'm familiar with or watch regularly as someone who's been in the horror community for a LONG time. This has a variety of things and not all of them I watch often I just know them.

Be. Busta - creepy story narration and he's one of my favs (and unless I'm mistaken I think he works as dentist lol)

Brimstone Below - creepy story narrator he is no longer active (hope he's okay)

blameitonjorge - Very well known, he makes mostly lost media videos now but he also does lots of video essays of interesting topics

Bright Sun Films (Formerly Bright Sun Gaming) - Does videos of abandoned locations and the history of them, he also does Urbex.

Brittney Crabb (Formerly Brittney44) - Does urban legends stories seemingly focused on a more younger audience as her content is very energetic and silly. Sometimes she does ghost hunting.

Jessii Vee - Same as Brittney she does urban legends and is for a younger audience, but there are some interesting things on there.

Dark Exploration Films - Urbex youtuber who does many interesting locations of many types

Darkness Prevails  - Another creepy story narrator, he has a speech pattern that's very podcast persona.

AbandonedMines11 - As the name suggests he explores mines. If that's your thing here you are.

Exploring With Josh - Another Urbex youtuber and is very well known. Explores well known and random places and is very energetic.

GloomyHouse - Does stories and lists. Some of his stuff is very fake and a bit clickbait.

Goose Boose - Deserves SO MUCH MORE attention. He does videos of creepy media mostly.

HoodoHoodlumsRevenge - Doesn't post anymore but his videos are mostly comedy in some way and posts about creepypastas (also really likes Gorillaz)

EDIT He has recently posted.

kylie - sorta young channel but I really like what's there,

Lazy Masquerade - Very well known narrator who also does list type videos. LEMMiNO - Does really nice video essays!! If you scroll to bottom you'll see what the channel used to be LMAO. He also has made some lovely music that I still listen to.

Night Mind - Does videos on exploring ARGs and other creepy media. I have one of his plushes.

oddheader - I'm counting him due to the mystery aspect. He does easter egg videos mostly

ScareTheater - Well known, does short videos on many dark things and is mentioned by other Youtubers on occasion. Rather light in tone.

Tats TopVideos - Her older videos are now gone but I still remember them, but she makes Top list videos with many other people that tend to be long (also rather comedic and several). Also SCP stuff.

The Haunting of Sunshine Girl Network - Not active any more really, but this was a channel created by an acting agency to make videos about a girl haunted by ghosts and learning she can help them, it's fictional of course but there is also books based on it (which I own and they stray a lot from the source but that's fine). There is also stuff on there from others.

Top5s - Another List channel, but these videos tend to feature things not often featured or talked about. I have been following this channel for as long as I can remember.

Top15s - I think we all already know this one. I'm counting this channel as it's mostly creepy things lol. With the return of Chills the style has changed and I think it's better now. Chills also stopped doing the deep voice

YourEverydayTheorist - Older stuff is silly theory videos but his newer stuff is mostly Iceberg videos.

Nick Crowley - To me some of his stuff can be rather disturbing

Moe Sargi - Now he's not for everyone as most of his videos are exaggerated and he's very loud but if you like Josh you may like him. He also was the one who made the 24 hour challenge videos first and I like his older stuff more. He also pumps out videos like crazy.

Night Time Spooks - Yet another horror narrator, but he's got the voice of just some guy.

Sakura Stardust - Does mostly Japanese horror content. Fortune - Does both real and fake stuff (as the header states blue = real and purple = fake. Most known for his Unexplained incidents videos.

ReignBot - Similar to Scare theater and is also well known and often mentioned.

Shrouded Hand - I don't really watch him but he's worth mentioning as he is also often mentioned by others

Mr. Nightmare - I accidently deleted his part OOPS. He's another narrator but a lot of his stuff got deleted by him.

Nexpo - I FORGOT HIM OOPS. He's probably the most well known of them. Makes long videos exploring many things.

ShaiiValley - Makes lots of lost media videos about topics that are unsolved and barely spoken of

Barely Sociable - Makes lots of mystery videos and covering a variety of topics. Great for both very long and dinner long content.

Sourcebrew - lost media lists

SomeOrdinaryGamers - does gaming videos and content on creepy things such as creepypastas. Does deep web and computer safety things too

Maverick Files - There is not a lot of videos on here but it's very promising and the quality is pretty great.

Pixels After Dark - The newer videos are better in my opinion but I spent a lot of time on this channel some nights ago while playing games lol

Sacrow - Does a lot of iceberg videos. If you have ever wanted to learn about older internet horror stuff it's a great channel to see lots.

Chilling Scares- Another multi theme true horror stories channel, kinda like Mr. Nightmare lol

Jessicur- Run of the mill horror channel that covers true crime and internet posts.

[charlizard91]

Welcome to our blog!

Okay so this may be confusing to explain, but i'll try my best. My friend Austin has this strange computer that can... connect to the future internet? Ok well to you guys it's not the future. For reference, i am from the year 2006, and yet whenever Austin over here accesses the internet, it's 2023??? Wowzas! Anyway, neither of us are really certain on how this works, but he always uses weird future internet slang that i don't quite get, so he let me create this blog to learn more about the future LOL? But at the same time, i don't think its our future? Cuz if so, then where's my future 31 year old self XD

Oh yeah, and Austin told me i should say my pronouns, which is something i never really thought about. I'm a guy, and you can just call me a he i guess? Sorry i'm still learning about this stuff, my best friend Reverie is transgender, so i'm glad i have her to rely on XD

Anyway, enough rambling from me, i'm gonna let everyone else introduce themselves! Feel free to ask us any questions about anything, this is going to be such a funky future experience LOL!

hey, i'm reverie, known online as elegyEstranger (though all the social networking websites i use are from 2006 lmao). not sure what to really put here, but here are some of my interests: computer programming, making music, video games (nothing anyone would recognize this day), and whatever stuff my friends drag me into.

Yo! I'm Jessica Hendrickson, but everyone just calls me Jess. My parents are pretty strict about letting me be on the interwebs, but Austin let's me borrow his computer in class. Everyone says I'm the big sister of the group, which is only really accurate if you exclude the many new friends we've made recently, haha. You never would've guessed this based on my outfit, but I like to knit, paint, and write, mostly because there's nothing really modern to do in my house. Man, I sure do envy you future dudes.

[OOC: sorry the jessica and austin drawings are a bit messy, i just really wanted to post this before goin to bed xD. expect better drawings and more characters in a few days]

HAHAEHEHEHAEHEHAEHA WHATS UP CHUCKLEFUCKS its me. austin. call me CRAZY or CRINGE but i AM the ceo of funny. the most infamous escapee from the [REDACTED]. AND IT IS MY HOLY MISSION TO BLESS THESE fuckers WITH THE i wear a mask with a smileforhoursatatime!!!!!!!!! THIS IS modern internet humor BiTCH!!! take yo sensative ass back to 2006. laughing emoji laughing emoji laughing em

Okay this is Charlie again... Austin is having another one of his laughing fits. Honestly, him being able to access the internet 17 years into the future is the least strange thing about him. Anyway, we're all super looking forward to your questions, and i hope to finally leave the realm of being a newbie when it comes to internet memez XD

[crystalflygeo]

Crazy Rin @zhongrin ebg theory but...

Coviello is DEF showing some simping behavior for Lord Tartaglia and my immediate guess was that they have feels (?) but now I think more of a "I wanna make him happy and fulfill all his wishes" kinda thing. So I thiiiink they're totally trying to set up Tartarin. (>>>> !!! He does have romantic feelings for her !!!<<<<) ("Lord Harbinger Tartaglia may be a little.... addicted to the thrill in the battlefield, but he has a human sode to himself too.") After all if Childe didn't send those flowers who did? and that third person pov?? And this??? hmmmmmmm

Best guess is Childe had no idea they were doing this, he really is simply a friend of Rin and recommended Coviello for the job

That is until he caught them burning the letter and they had to spill the beans//hit

At which point Childe probably simply told them to keep going with whatever they were doing because...... he can get a good fight out of this if he pisses off you-know-who

There are still things to solve like what the heck is Coviello searching for/cooking/making (Found a clue for [it]. Times like these, the Fatui intelligence network sure comes in handy. They were able to extract information from the small family.) (It looks - and feels - strange. Almost as if it’s a living being. Anyway, I just need to follow the recipe…)

and also why does Rin have memory loss (?) Could be the hot chocolate maybe idk that's sus. Moth is on it tho.

(Also also maybe that's just me looking too much into it but it's very sus how in her last post(s) she isn't "having tea with" but "serving tea to" and the usual pink is missing.....) girl is having nosebleeds too someone help her pls....

There is so much to this tho fr fr I'm loving it Rin omg such an amazing and fun plot and game you're a genius AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

EDIT: WAIT IS COVIELLO MAYBE MAKING A LOVE POTION OF SOME SORT LMAO that's what he's cooking up/researching and that's why he keeps giving rin drinks (mixing it in) and that's whY RIN IS HAVING SIDE EFFECTS??? THE PLOT THICKENS //rushes to work

[barbreypilled]

⭐ for ikte!!!

hehehehe

anyway I started writing this silly ahh fic in July 2022 after rereading the series and I have a lot of silly headcanons and silly little facts that I cooked up in my crazy brain hehehe also this is going to be annoyingly long so I'm putting it under a read more

-I’ve had the headcanon that the victors were trafficked out of a physical brothel since about 7th grade when I found out what a brothel was, i liked the idea of them all kind of commiserating. In my mind sex trafficking is actually a huge moneymaker in the Capitol even before Ptolemy’s time but he streamlined it in some way and eventually was able to monopolize it (I won’t get into that fully yet bc there’s a pretty big plot point related to that) (I spent way too much time thinking about this lmao), in addition to victors and ‘roadsiders’ as mentioned in the 3rd chapter he also gets his pick of new shipments of Avoxes, which go for way cheaper. (I’m trying to remember what has actually been published yet lmao I’m just omw home from work rn, none of this is like. major spoilers tho like I won’t talk about [REDACTED] or the [REDACTED] 🤪😎 anyway I love writing about evil shitty ppl doing weird evil shit my Baby Book headcanons are very ASOIAF coded

-idk how many chapters there are going to be yet but as of right now probably about 70, I’m contemplating breaking it up by year bc it starts w Annie’s games and ends right at the beginning of CF w a post-MJ epilogue. Im also giving pre-canon POV chapters to a few characters, as of rn I have one for Asenath and one for Ronan aka Ciaran’s dad but I can’t decide who else…. also on that note Asenath’s backstory is fucking bonkers and I can’t get into it rn without just openly spoiling a huge chunk of the second half of the fic but it’s. a lot. it starts to be hinted at in the 7th chapter which will ideally be up soon… >:)

-I have entirely too many opinions about fanon Annie and how I am literally the only person who Gets Her and I won’t get into all of that now but as an Actual Mentally Ill Person™️ I definitely don’t think the Capitol would have just left her alone after she Came Back Wrong like I definitely think the upper echelon would have kind of pretended all that never happened especially bc (at least in my take as we will see soon bc I have actually finished those chapters hehe) she was INCREDIBLY inconvenient as it pertained to mainstream entertainment/network tv but the tabloids and more low-brow media outlets would have had an absolute field day w her and that’s a major plot point in The Piss. Also as someone who has had actual psychotic episodes and has actual OCD and actual autism I’m definitely taking her in a different direction than most ppl do lmao. Also somewhat on that note I know there is a high demand for like. rly saccharine odesta content there is absolutely none of that in the piss lmao. Like they have cute little couple-y scenes but for a good chunk of it they are two deeply traumatized unemployed 18/19year olds w way too much money basically just sniping at each other until one of them overhears someone talking shit about the other and gets their child gladiator sleeper agent murder instinct triggered

-A few scenes I'm rly looking forward to publishing in no particular order without any context are The Seal Scene, Angerona Heavensbee's Wedding, the 72nd games, The Ismene Reveal, The Phoca Reveal and Persephone's introduction hehehehe and half of these are already fully finished >:)

dude message me! id totally b down to collab, im also crazy bad at messagign people about that lmao. are you anyotherstar? i remember u raidign me

new ask game - who am i to you?

[shuttershocky]

So I got persona 5 awhile back used, have only played a little of it, and now the royal deluxe version is on sale. I was wondering if it’s worth buying the royal version and switching to it or stick to the one I have. Is it worth it?

Don't believe the reviews written at launch, they probably had to submit the review before finishing the game. It is absolutely worth buying P5 Royal even if you already have P5. Royal is the game that P5 SHOULD have been. It is the game people remember in their minds when they think about how they loved P5 but haven't actually replayed P5 to see all its problems laid bare.

Some stuff that makes buying Royal worth it

The original Persona 5 had a very, very obvious Light and L thing going on between Akechi and Joker (they even look like them lmao). They also didn't pull it off. Royal greatly rewrites and explores their relationship both in their brand new confidant (the new name for social links) and in the newly added month, making it one of the best relationships in the series.

They rebalanced the combat entirely. Guns are finally usable instead of being worthless, and there's far more depth and creativity possible in the Thieves' movesets. Some people complained the game was made too easy, but honestly that's an easy tradeoff to make up for the ridiculous number of quality of life changes added that make the whole thing a smoother, more dynamic, and fun experience. Also, Royal reworked how status effects work, allowing you to use them to knock down (and thus combo) enemies that normally do not have weaknesses. It's fucking rad.

Every confidant event now also has extra dialogue where they call you over your cellphone. Social links / confidants have always been the biggest appeal of Persona, getting more out of them is a big plus.

The new director (they changed directors in Royal)'s storytelling ability is just... Better. Like, it's crazy, at some point you can actually obviously tell which parts of the game are new in Royal and which were in the original game because of the quality of the dialogue and the overall writing is just that much better (and Royal keeps the original games' scenes). The original P5 had many, many problems with its writing, from being unable to hold on to its plot to just sometimes having cringy dialogue. There's straight up a whole scene where the villains explain EVERYTHING to each other despite both of them knowing all the info already. It gets that bad. Royal's original writing on the other hand, has a grasp of both plot writing and an emotional understanding of its cast to really make the most out of the setting's potential. The difference is night and day, get Royal for this reason alone.

They added talents / passives to Personas which can be inherited through fusion, which can make some EXTREMELY funny personas if you figure out an overpowered combo.

Morgana doesn't force you to go to sleep at night as much anymore. You can read books or study or clean the cafe or play videogames, basically DO shit that raises your stats rather than wasting time. Anyone that's played the original game might see this as the number 1 reason to get Royal honestly, it feels incredible to not waste so many days on a game with limited time. (You can finish all possible confidants in a single run without it even being very strict! Holy fucking shit!)

You get the P5 DLC for free btw lmao. Royal had its own DLC, but if you open the PlayStation network and own Royal, the original P5 DLC is free for you. Get it, some of the personas (like Kaguya) are stupidly fun.

The original P5 had one horrible final boss (he's still there in Royal, he's just not the final boss anymore.) Royal's final boss on the other hand, is legitimately one of my favorite final JRPG battles ever. I like it even more than Persona 3's Nyx, it's that good (though nowhere near as hard). If you like Ursula K Le Guin's work, the final arc is thematic inversion of one of her short stories. I love it so much.

The soundtrack is bitchin.

[hhhhhhhappycow]

Okay so obviously I love the Haikyuu guys but I also want to say how much I love all of the Haikyuu girls and the fact that they are all interesting characters with their own arcs within the series!

Like Yachi!!! Going from being a super shy and anxious young girl who sort of maybe likes art and design but is struggling to find a real passion for something to a confident young woman working in the city with a strong network of friends across the country that she can rely on! And we get to see how she grows and becomes more confident and invested in the task before her!

And Kiyoko! She comes across as a little aloof at first but then we get to see that she's actually a little shy and serious so she doesn't have many close friends, but as soon as she meets someone she can speak freely with she starts to open up! And then we learn her back story with the scars that she doesn't like to show and see that as she opens up she becomes more confident in herself and her body. And how crazy it is that Karasuno had no manager when she joined(!) so she essentially took on the role with zero help and made it her own, setting the precedent for Yachi and everyone who came after her!

Mika too! At the start she breaks up with Daishou because she thinks he always chooses volleyball over her but then she realizes how much the sport means to him and that maybe they were both kind of wrong, her in not even trying to understand his passion and him in not bothering to share it with her and excluding her from this part of himself. Then she asks him to teach her more about it and we watch as she becomes knowledgeable and even invested in the sport!

And then Saeko! She plays the drums! She works in a motorcycle store! She affectionately bullies her little bro and his friends but also is always 100% there and pulling for them as their biggest supporter (and ready to take down enemy spies lmao), reconnecting with some old schoolmates and new drinking pals! What more do you want from her?

Alisa and Akane as well! Alisa is the best most supportive big sister to her airhead baby bro and I am so here for it! And Akane is so little but so sassy, she has a strong interest in volleyball and isn't afraid of the rowdy guys (I mean, how can she when her brother is Taketora?) and then when we see her after the time skip she's covering the Olympics as an intern? Even though she's still a teenager? That's so cool!!!

Kanoka was not kidding when she said she came to win all of the games! (P.S. Tanaka and Kiyoko watching her was so precious!) She's such a sweet character and her drive and determination is so admirable! Seeing that pay off for her, that she went to the Olympics, was so satisfying!

Michimiya! She was so upset by her own losses but she held it together for her team and threw her whole heart into supporting the guys when they made it through! And I could talk forever about how that final panel we see her in speaks volumes about her character and her development! Even though she moved away from volleyball and realized it wasn't her calling she was still invested in sports and eventually found her right fit! And the lessons she learned while playing volleyball must have had such a huge impact on her future! (Side note but sepak takraw is such a badass sport too!)

Natsu!!! I'm so proud of her!!! She started off as Hinata's cute baby sister who looked up to her brother and seemed to be developing an interest in volleyball through him and then blam! Suddenly she's a player for Niiyama and I'm sure she's living up to her brother's name and then some!

We didn't get a lot of time with Miwa but it's so cool that she followed her passion of hairdressing and was seemingly successful with it! I like to think that she's so proud of Tobio but also likes to tease him a lot!

Best girl Nametsu keeping all of those giant Dateko guys in line! I love her! (I'm sad we didn't see her after the time skip but I'm sure she's out there doing something awesome!)

Also shout out to two of my favorite managers Yukie and Kaori! Loved seeing that the strong bond between them has lasted into adulthood! And that Yukie is still as obsessed with food as ever!

I just... Love them so much 😭

[crybabylisa]

And to check it off Sanji sfw + nsfw

me.... but he always makes me some nice breakfast to bring me to bed and that makes my mood a lot better🤧 always showers me in kisses too!!

who worries more when the other is sick/hurt?

sanji worries so much about me all the time!!! this man would kill everyone that hurts me lmao but even if i'm only sick he worries a lot. he always cooks me soups and brings me a nice tea and he does everything to make me feel better🥺

who plays pranks on the other?

we both don't really prank eachother. i try it sometimes though but nothing too mean because he always falls for it and that makes me feel bad...

who is always the first to suggest cuddling on the sofa?

mhhh we both love cuddling! but i think i ask for it a little more because i'm touch starved lmao and he's a lot in the kitchen or spends time with his crew so he doesn't have as much time as me. but he always makes time for me if i ask him for attention and cuddles.

who insists on creating nicknames for the other?

sanji absolutely loves them but we both call eachother pet names and nicknames all the time!! he comes up with the most embarrassing names but it's so cute how happily he says them, so i can't even be mad :(

who says "i love you" first?

you know him... sanji said it the first time he saw me💀 but the first one who said it and actually meant it, was me. that poor guy almost fainted and didn't believe me.. but when he realized that i'm not joking, he was so happy and hugged me tightly :(( he didn't let go of me for the next hours.

who's the messiest one?

me😔 but sanji is so adorable and always helps me if i need it.

who feels the most uncomfortable about pda?

oh definitely not sanji lmao he loves to kiss me or hold me close and he doesn't care where we are. he loves to show me off and let others know that i'm his and that he's mine.

who's the funniest drunk?

sanji!

we both text each other all the time lmao but i think i do it a little more than him. i send him all kinds of stuff on tiktok and instagram and when he opens his phone there are 20+ notifications from me... but he responds to everything🤧

the nsfw selfship ask game

SANJI X LISA

who is the loudest?

that really depends on who's the submissive one on that day, but we're both really loud. his groans and whines are so hot, i love them😩

who is the more submissive?

we're both a switch but he tends to be a little more submissive. he's such a good boy when he's a sub, always taking what i give him and his whines are so adorable. sanji loves it when i peg him and/or edge him for hours. but i also love to be submissive for him, he's just so good and knows exactly how to make me cum and make me go crazy.

who is the most experimental?

mhhh probably sanji, he just loves finding new things to try out with me.

do they fuck or make love?

always make love!! we might be perverts but we love eachother and need to show the other one🤧

lights on or lights off?

lights on!

who likes sexting the most?

mhhh i love to tease him like that but he enjoys it too, especially when i'm sending him some pics. he gets hard so fast and always cums pretty fast aswell.

who is more likely to be caught masturbating?

sanji!! he's always so embarrassed when i catch him but his timing is just so bad every time💀 when i'm taking too long with coming back he always start to masturbate because he's too desperate too wait and i somehow always come back when he's about to cum. (he's really cute when he's a blushing mess, mumbling out apologies and asking me for help)

who is better at oral and who prefers it?

HE IS SO GOOD!!!!! it's almost unfair how good he is... sanji makes me cum on his mouth so fast and he absolutely loves it. he's the type of guy who says that i'm his "dessert"💀 if he had to choose between me sucking him off or him eating me out, he would always choose the second option.

who usually initiates things?

we're both horny idiots but he's even worse than me and initiates it more than me.

who has the most/weirdest kinks?

mhhh sanji and he wants to try everything with me ...i can't say no to that.

ps. if you have an emoji beside your name, scroll down for a little message from me to you!

🌸 - we’ve personally never talked before, but I always enjoy seeing you on my dash whether it’s your interaction with other moots, reblogging of content, or posting content of your own! I have always wanted to hit you up but as a mere shy bean I never got to. either way, I’d love to sit and chat with you one day~

🌺 - regardless if we’ve talked a storm or only sent a handful of messages back and forth, you hold a special place in my heart and I hope 2021 treats you well. even though I’m hecking terrible at responding or keeping in touch, I love and appreciate your friendship and I hope we can talk more!

🌷 - you’re one of the people I consider my closest friends and for that, I’m eternally grateful to have met you in this lifetime. even when I don’t have much to offer and am terrible at showing my appreciation, you have made an impact in my life and have made things more bearable to say the least. thank you for being my endless support system and I love you very much!

💐 a note for you, from juno.

[to @guktro​​]: oh gray! we met through bhq and our love for animal crossing (it seems like I don’t love it all that much though because I haven’t touched my game since July 🤡). you’ve gone through so much this year and I will never shut up about how I admire you for staying strong and holding your ground. even though we talk once in a blue moon, you inspire me greatly. I love you and you deserve the world and more.

[to @inkedtae​​]: my buzzing bee! we actually haven’t talked all that much but you’re such a wonderful being inside and out. we’ve talked a handful of times in the dms but I really love your humor and how you handle situations so maturely. there are times where I feel like we’re the same person LOL. but either way, I’m ecstatic to run Bangtan Sorciere alongside you and I hope this new year brings us closer together. love you, bubbie.

[to @jamaisjoons​​]: QUEEN SOL 😠 when I first messaged you, I was so intimidated (not because of you, but because you’re one of my favorite fic writers and you were 🔝👸 big joon dick energy while I was 🧍🏻‍♀️🤡 stoopid LOL. I never thought I’d meet a fellow clown (but wbk I’m genuinely the bigger clown out of the two of us). and now that I’m ~going through it~ my heart bursts of even more love and appreciation for you because you’ve been there for me through it all! I can trust you with just about anything at this point. from the bottom of my heart, thank you for being my support system. I love you so much.

[to @moominyg​​]: keldaaa my gal!!! in terms of BTS we’re two polar opposites and I will never forget the countless times where you had to send me to 🅱️orny jail whenever we would send each other gif sets of the boys lmao. we’ve known each other for a short time but I’m happy to have become friends and gotten to know you!! it’s always fun talking to you whether it’s about the boys, about life being a dingus, or just wishing each other well in general dkfjf. also if you’re ever going back to New York, my trip there is in the works and as soon as miss rona calms down, mayhaps we could meet?? love you, girlie!

[to @sketchguk​​]: TWINNIE. oh my gosh we’ve gone through so much together, and to this day it’s unbelievable how you’re even real with all this love and friendship you’ve given me 😭 honestly, you’re one of my best friends and talking to you instantly brightens up my day. I love your energy and you’re truly one of a kind. I can’t believe miss rona is keeping us apart 😠😑 but until I can fly over to NY, I’m hugging the shit out of Cooky pls he’s so soft like you. I love you so much and I hope the new year treats you well!

[to @wushrooms​]: rheya my og queen! you were one of the first people I met on here and we’ve gone through so much (and so many blogs of yours skdjdk) and I miss the days of us running a network together ;-; and sprinting together ;-; and thirsting over the boys together ;-; but I’m really happy you’re still writing! you’re an amazing writer and I can only wish to have half the creativity and aesthetic that you do. sorry I haven’t been keeping in touch, but I still love you a lot!

[to @yeoldontknow​​]: kat!! bet you weren’t expecting this, huh 🤪 I don’t think we’ve ever talked personally but we do run a network together (gosh it’s crazy that I’m even saying this now that Bangtan Sorciere has been established now djdkdk), and honestly you’re one of the kindest souls I’ve ever met. when you drew that first tarot card for me, I actually got emotional because of how scary accurate it was and definitely not also because I came out of a horrible day at work that day. truly, thank you so much for your kindness even though we’ve known each other for a short time. I love you and I hope we can talk more this year!

[incorrect-ikevamp-quotes]

Do you think they would actually enjoy the modern world? Or would they want to stay in their current time period?

Hm, well, I think that may vary depending on each suitor if I’m honest! (I’ll be excluding Sebastian from this one, only because he is a modern man and I wager he would want to stay in the mansion in order to finish his thesis) 

Under a cut bc it’s a long boi:

I think for people like Arthur and Theo, for instance--who always seem to live in the fast lane--it might not really prove much of a problem. They would continue enjoying the night life and move with their busy schedules. Tl;dr: (For them? Same shit, different day)

Vincent would likely be doing just fine given how Theo often provides assistance in places where he struggles; to promote his art, to spark intrigue in the general public and benefactors. He might be a little overwhelmed by the influx of stimuli that comes with the modern era, constant noise and interaction and movement--perhaps worry that people are losing their ability to live in the moment. (Not to mention what’s being done to the environment...) There might be a learning curve/adjustment, but I think Theo would help him ease in. Plus, it would be a little easier to promote his art given the less stringent restrictions on public exhibitions. He’d still have to work for his fame, but at least the van Goghs wouldn’t have to live in constant unease in the proximity of the cutthroat academy.  Tl;dr: (Mixed feelings, but tries to stay positive about modern times)

Dazai is more familiar with this kind of life of quick turmoil and breakneck speed, if anything he falls back into his old coping mechanisms--hello writing, drinking, and smoking. An overwhelming influx of information and suffering would probably be hard for him to manage, despite how expertly he hides it. I think I would be worried he would lose himself in the dismal reality of diminished connection with other people. Yes I’m shoving him into therapy, I want him to start living for himself and taking care of himself ffs

That isn’t to say there aren’t happy possibilities for him, just that I think he really needs to heal first. I could see him very happy in a kind of writer’s circle with people he loves and trusts; less expending his energy in a desperate attempt to fill the void and please others, more cultivating his own happiness... Tl;dr: (Positive potential, but honestly part of me thinks the past quieter/simple/rural life suits him better...he still loves meme culture tho, he finds it so expansive and creative)

Isaac is in a similar boat as Dazai, I think! He has wonderful potential as a mentor and professor, and living in a world that has a little more patience and respect for genius might help encourage him to put himself out there. That being said, I think the pace of life would exhaust him though--he is very much the kind of person that prefers to keep to himself and just puzzle and tinker. Baby boy just wants to do equations, build little inventions, and read up on the recent discoveries in astrophysics (BRUH WHEN THE IMAGE OF THE BLACK HOLE CAME OUT HE FORGOT HOW TO B R E A T H E) Napoleon is the only reason he eats anything healthy or on any kind of regular schedule s m h. Tl;dr: (Not a lot changes, honestly? He was reclusive then, he still is now--he just has more toys/academic resources. If anything he might get a little too lost in his work because of it, somebody please make sure he’s eating/sleeping/socializing;;;)

Poor Jeanne is SUFFERING. Please release him from this nightmare he is begging. Jk jk, I don’t think it would be too bad for him--but I do think that he would have the aforementioned problem of too many stimuli and too much interaction. I think he would ease into it a little with Mozart’s help; he would just be awkward and wooden until he got the hang of it. Most people just find him quirky in an amusing way, and don’t think too hard about it. I’d wager he’d probably become literate at this point because of the abundance of resources and necessity to read/write (okay but imagine this baby with a little kid workbook iM GONNA CRY!!! TAKE ALL MY CRAYONS JEANNE). 

Can you imagine this mofo at a Starbucks??? Tall and stoic, dark and debonair (EVERYONE IS S W O O N I N G), and he just asks in a light tenor “can I have a mocha with eight shots of expresso” with a completely straight face. “Sir, that could kill you” “Don’t worry, I’ve been dead a long time” And he just moves to wait for his order. 11/10 cryptid I could watch an entire show just about his daily adventures

He works with Napoleon a lot given their similar skillsets. They coach kids at high schools that have fencing teams (it’s really REALLY cute bc if they’re on the younger side, Jeanne will very dramatically lose bc he wants to encourage them and the kids are delighted--but the parents are INCHES from laughing so hard they’re in tears). Otherwise, he mostly takes up gigs as a security worker/bodyguard, only really works for the money. He prefers to spend his time in ways that feel meaningful if he can, so don’t be surprised if you see him in foster homes and in social working spaces. He has an uncanny understanding about him, a kind of silence/patience that doesn’t stifle; it makes the kids/teens calm down in milliseconds. They really listen when he does talk, and he sets good and clear boundaries--he knows how to be firm when it’s required. He gives them the structure and placid grounding they’ve never had, and really pays attention to what’s important to them. Brings them little things he notices; brings flowers to the one that likes to draw, brings CDs (he is bad with technology, but they usually only have access to older/outdated stuff anyway) to the one the one that struggles to write with white noise in the house, brings little plushies to the ones that lose theirs. He’s simple but solid, and he finds a lot of meaning in helping kids overcome the similar kind of struggles he faced.  Tl;dr: (Steep learning curve, but he just sees it as all the same really--just more work to be done with the literacy requirement and adjustment to technology. Will be resistant at first, but when he gets accustomed and starts finding people who are important to him, he wouldn’t want to change anything/go back. But will admit there are some days he just wants to go to the most remote place he can access and just live there for a month with no human interaction whatsoever; people are inefficient and insufferable sometimes)

Mozart’s life honestly doesn’t change much? I feel like he would easily be able to keep composing and continue releasing his work as per usual. Given his quick capacity to schmooze and say what people want to hear when he must, he’d be more than able to network his way into success. I think the only thing he might struggle with now and again is inspiration, given the world operates on a very surface level in the modern era sometimes. Profound insight and depth are not quite as cultivated in many ways, and he can struggle to find something that just sparks motivation/novelty in his mind, makes him start composing at breakneck speed. He reads a lot and watches some TV shows/movies when he’s at really low inspiration levels, the kind of guy that sneers at Game of Thrones--but finds things like BBC’s Sherlock more passable (wants intrigue and complexity, doesn’t much enjoy the sensationalized drivel). When Arthur finds out he loves ATLA he about falls off his seat. “It’s a children’s show.” “Yes it is, with a remarkable level of depth and craftsmanship, what are you trying to say?” He begins to find a kind of rhythm in his composing, and Jeanne and Dazai often drop by with so many crazy stories he finds himself filled with music anyway LMAO Tl;dr: (Same as Isaac, really just keeps doing his thing without being impeded, and he enjoys the luxuries/conveniences of the modern era. Will be slightly resistant at first because of how alien some of the changes are, but will fall into the habits/customs slowly and surely. Fine with it, will whine a bit at the growing pains tho)

Leonardo actually canonically owns a bar, and does that really surprise anyone? He really enjoys the excitement of meeting new people and hearing about their myriad histories, the influx of cultures/languages/experiences. It’s a nice but lowkey place, people stop for a drink, listen to some good music--chat amiably and relax after a long day’s work--before heading out. There are regulars and people that just stop for that single day; tourists, vacationers, so on and so forth.

When asked, many people note a sleek black cat with sharp eyes that led them to the bar... Tl;dr: (Don’t Let the Existential Dread Set-in: The Prequel, adapts well to the modern era because of centuries of experience but also...he’s so tired...somebody please hold him I can’t watch him live like this, lord jesus)

Optimally, I see Comte filling his time with myriad pursuits; ranging from philanthropy, indulging in art/music/theatre (often a benefactor as well), and keeping track of his chirren (they may exist more independently now, but he still worries about them ;-;). Otherwise nothing much changes for him, still goes to galas and fancy gatherings, still enjoys fashion and spoiling people, still seeks to occupy himself with social interaction and care-taking--if he doesn’t have a family of his own. He’s basically just that meme that’s like DON’T LET THE EXISTENTIAL DREAD SET-IN. DON’T LET IT SET-IN!!!!!!!!! Tl;dr: (Not to repeat myself but also Don’t Let the Existential Dread Set-in: The Sequel, literally just desperately trying to fill the void please somebody help him he also just needs to be held fuck’s sake, I’m going to drag him kicking and screaming into happiness--but otherwise has no great trouble adjusting to the modern era. I feel like he would have a more minor form of what Dazai struggles with, maybe a lack of personable connection that he once had; fewer chances to be himself and relax. Also probably worried about the increasing unhappiness and turmoil building in the world in general...)

Napoleon is similar to Comte in that he often checks up on Isaac and Jeanne from time to time, and does the aforementioned fencing lessons with kids. He also takes a lot of basic security positions--for venues, concerts, museums--you name it. He dislikes the idea of sitting behind a desk a lot, so he prefers to do a lot of different things; he even cooks from time to time at the restaurants  that know him very well. One gig he particularly enjoys is battle choreography for movies/theatre! He tends to stay away from anything too historically close to his era of origin, but he has fun coming up with realistic (smaller scale) hand-to-hand combat scenarios and duels. Tl;dr: (This era doesn’t feel like too much of a change. It’s a little more intensive in terms of pace, but he manages to keep up pretty well, it just exhausts him from time to time--and he usually goes on trips or hikes to unwind when he needs to like Jeanne LOL they do not go to their happy place, they go to their high lonesome place).

Shakespeare also continues to do his drama thing, organizes troupes on tons of different levels--from community level to more intense, skilled groups that re-enact his own work. His life doesn’t change all that much beyond a new form of theatre logistics, and he adjusts to the technology fairly easily out of necessity. He’ll stop by Vincent’s place from time to time to show him recordings of his latest shows, but otherwise is almost always on the move. Tl;dr: (So long as he can keep following his greatest passion, he doesn’t really mind the changes in how theatre happens--he doesn’t have any sizable issues with the modern era.)

Ability with technology (phones mostly):

Arthur: more than capable, well-versed, loves to do everything on his phone no prob--maybe lives a little too much on his phone (Vine/TikTok/Youtube can kill his productivity RIP) also yes he has a fidget spinner on his desk, no I will not be taking any constructive criticism at this time

Theo: yes but with a lot of cursing at first, had to do it for work and now looks down on anyone that can’t keep up with him (except for Vincent)

Vincent: knows the basics, taking and sending pictures, writing things in notes for later, texting (tho sending emails is a little harder for him); he does his best but he can be slow. Really really enjoys the paint programs on his iPad for when he’s on public transit, but he starts setting alarms after he gets the hang of it (he’s missed his stops before because of it LMAO)

Leonardo: what kind of stupid question? Man knows how to pick them apart and put ‘em back together for crying out loud, uses it like a pro--comes to him naturally, and he’s the guy that keeps coming up with ways to jailbreak Apple products and thwart their money-grubbing tactics. Catch him playing Minish Cap on his emulator on the way to work, brah

Comte: just vibing, keeps up with the times easily since he’s been doing it for so long, much like Theo uses it to keep in touch with the people around him--he’s the “prefers to call instead of text” sorta guy though, he worries about losing emotional subtleties and he likes to hear people’s voices. Doesn’t do anything special on phones, more just a tool; will read/listen to podcasts/does have emulators (courtesy of Leo) and enjoys playing Pokemon when he’s bored

Jeanne: types one finger at a time, it will take a while--but he’ll get there (deleted all his contacts by accident once and Mozart was just. HOW.) He barely knows how to use a phone, and it’s a steep learning curve for him

Mozart: purely functional when it comes to his phone, refuses to rely on it beyond the necessities that only tech can do (for instance, sending emails or reading articles or uploading compositions) he still writes his music before making more polished digital copies. He will sometimes listen to pieces digitally, but prefers to play them in-person; he feels that a lot of the soul in a piece is lost despite the convenience

Dazai: you absolute fools. you baboons. why would you ever give him this kind of power. it is 3AM and he has been on a wikipedia trail spanning hours, started with Cleopatra being the seventh in her line with that name all the way to cotton candy being called “daddy’s beard” in French. please help him he hasn’t slept in years. Also probably binges anime and manga lbr. He’s the one making vine references every other second, always up to date on the memes^TM

Isaac: also mostly uses it as a tool for research and calculations; it’s a way to keep track of information. He also likes to play background music while he’s working, so he finds the device nice and convenient--plus less having to go around pestering people in-person. he does start to get interested in coding and tinkering with apps/programs eventually, too

Shakespeare: finds it a delightful little contraption, so useful because it lets him jot down ideas as they come to him quickly, and he can edit his texts much more easily with digital interfaces. also likes that performances can be recorded, because now he can analyze his staging more efficiently--it gives him a good sense of what needs to be adjusted, and encourages him to keep streamlining/try new concepts

Napoleon: likes it because he can keep in touch with people more easily, the kind of guy to drop a line before checking on a friend. he really likes to look up recipes and find out more about cooking techniques he’s never encountered before. Isaac starts making an Instagram account just to show Napoleon’s impeccable plating, and Napo gets quite the following without knowing for a while

I was tagged by @leonzhng​​ for this NiF set 💕💕💕  thank youuuu 💕💕💕

I’ll be tagging:

@mylastbraincql​ for this mdzs network anniversary set

@theyilinglaozus​ for this gorgeous woh set

@wangxianbunnydoodles​ for this One Basking in Infinite Glory set

@sassassassins​ for this amazing woh set

@tiesanjiao​​ for this vincenzo set that personally came to my house and tore my heart out

okay so this is the gif

0. software (Mac)

Quick Time Player for screen recording

iMovie for .mov to .mp4 conversion

Photoshop 22.3.1 (that says it will work with .mov clips but that is a bold-faced lie)

1. planning

yeah I don’t do that 😂 

my planning is like

these scenes, although a few moments/minutes apart, look to be filmed from the same angle/perspective

I bet they’d look nice by themselves 

then I screen record the whole 2 mins or whatever, tuck the clip away in a folder, and 80% of the time forget it’s there

which is why my laptop memory hates me

2. creation

Quick Time Player 

Screen recorded the 2 min scene w/no sound 

I trimmed 3 clips with Quick Time out of the 2 minute video, all of them about 2-3 seconds long

Made sure I quit Quick Time completely, or it will make iMovie crash lol 

iMovie

Imported the three clips

Exported as .mp4 

(settings)

then made sure I quit iMovie completely too, or it will make Photoshop crash lmao

Photoshop

Import video frames as layers

Trim + Resize (usually I start with 800 x 1200 or 600 x 900 depending on whether I’m working around hardcoded subtitles, logos, etc. bc that gives me 540 x 360 which is a size I prefer)

Convert to Smart Object

Sometimes I do my own sharpening, but here I think I used this action by rubyred (I think? I don’t remember) 

Before I start fiddling with colors, I always check if I have a psd that might work well with the scene (remember I’ve done no planning, so now I’m just flying by the seat of my pants)

By some miracle, I had saved the psd for the coloring I made for this Legend of Fei gifset + threw it on there to see how it looks

And it looked all right :)

If I remember, I throw on my watermark (I did for this one, yayy)

Export - Save for Web

If the gif is over 10MB I go back and trim some of it off (which is a guessing game bc trying to actually play a gif on Photoshop crashes it every time)

Ideally post (usually I just schedule the set for the next open slot in my queue and completely forget I made it until it posts) unless I look at the set in my drafts, decide it’s trash, delete it, and watch like 3 hours of mriad instead

I’m trying to remember what I did to get that coloring and I’m pretty sure it was nothing crazy, there were some blues + greens + cyans in there I selectively enhanced and then just lowered the saturation all the way down. Selectively enhanced the black + maybe increased yellow on selective red? I feel so stupid that I can’t even remember what episode this NiF scene is from so I can go back and see what the original colors were, and make like, reasonable deductions about my own process lol

Thanks to that psd, this NiF set actually only took about 15 mins to make, when this one (where the psd comes from)

had actually taken like 2+ hours and 3 Photoshop crashes AND I forgot the watermark RIP (don’t be like me kids, save your psds + remember your watermarks)

🥰
