WTF... it’s The Day That’s In It and we may as well get this over with. :)

For 24 hours (...or no, let’s tell the truth: actually until local midnight on the 30th, because what’s the rush? -- and also, there’s always somebody finding out about this kind of thing a bit late...), get our whole DRM-free Ebooks Direct ebook store (35 novels and short works!) for USD $44! The info's right here:

https://bit.ly/WholeStore44ForCyberMonday

(...And then I can sit back and stop worrying about the fecking Marketing Season, and get back to writing and cooking.) 

(...Actually, I tell a lie. My true intention for “after I finish work today” is to activate one of these lovely gifts I’ve been sent and completely flood my screen with crabs. And then screencap the results and post the video. ...So as soon as this post achieves (picks a random number) 250 reblogs, I’ll do that.

(So go forth, y’all, and act accordingly.) :)

Every time it’s rainy or stormy I just think of my headcanon that The Iceman is scared of storms and nothing’ll change that😭

i am back with even more thoughts on Nightmare and Corrupt splitting. The DoubleNoot AU.

DoubleNight? Maybe?

When Nightmare got split from Corrupt he was very confused. The last thing nightmare remembered was almost dying and hearing his mother's dying screams as the villagers cut her down to get to the apples.

He remembers staring at the apple and just wanting to live. Wanting to not die. Wanting to be safe again. He grbabed the golden apple, watched it corrupt by his own negative feelings. And bit down anyway.

Only to wake up on battlefield. His body feeling weird and almost as if there is a disconnect. No where near anywhere he recognized and with all these weird skeletons around him. Especially the goop guy who reminds him of the corrupted apple a bit.

Nightmare does not, and never will, remember his time when he was in Corrupt. He was asleep and feeling slowly. All that he remembers are some nonsense dreams or beginning nightmares that always ended with a darkness that fell over him like a blanket. (He was able to find this comparison later when he finally got his first bed. He realises that while he was asleep he just felt wrapped up and cocooned.)

Corrupt for a ling time believed all of nightmares memories to be his own. Same for his feelings. But always felt weird about being called Nightmare.

Dream even said as much that he was not his brother anymore. So Corrupt agreed and decided to be named corrupt. As a way to reclaim the insult the villagers and later dream would throw at him. (Well the villagers at nightmare but you get the deal)

The reason why corrupt wasnt completely evil and more of a lawful neutral? It was because the negative feelings that corrupted the golden apple were fear and desperation. And mot for revenge or anything. Nightmare had wanted above else to feel safe.

And the apples are all about emotions. So when corrupt first formed the thing he had foremost was a wish to be safe and not be hurt anymore. The rage and hatred came later when within seconds all the memories of what the villagers said and did came rushing back.

When they split and when corrupt managed to see the difference between them and who was who he understands that in a way nightmare's honest and well positive wish to just feel safe was the thing that made corrupt more than just a negative creature band on destroying everything. (The thin dream says he is)

Corrupt protected nightmare since the start. Nightmare made it able for corrupt to be more than just a demon.

"His face is amazing in its changing lights and shadows. It is, in the space of a second or two, pleasant, amused, sinister and sad. Interesting, clever, kind and smiling, that face. . . obviously cannot be cataloged with any other face in the world." - a journalist in 1935, about Peter Lorre.

What we really need is a Peter Lorre Flip Book, only it would have to be a digital/online one because just one set of pictures for one instance of Peter Lorre would comprise 10s of 10000s and even then you wouldn't get all of his expressions. Still. Anyone want to try? 😛

The above series of portraits was made in 1936 during the filming of Nancy Steele Is Missing! A studio photographer did indeed attempt to capture "Lorre’s outstanding ability to reveal psychological complexity as the varying emotions chase each other across those extraordinarily mobile features."

Peter is 32 in these pictures. Source

That top middle one is divine, and I'll always like the last one seen through the bars where he's all dejected - I could keep going about each of these. But this one below, I keep coming back to. Something especially compelling about it, or resonating with part of my psyche at this moment, I don't know.

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again

was talking with a friend about how some of dunmeshi fаndom misunderstands kabru's initial feelings towards laios.

to sum up kabru's situation via a self-contained modernized metaphor:

kabru is like a guy who lost his entire family in a highly traumatic car accident. years later he joins a discord server and takes note of laios, another server member who seems interesting, so they start chatting. then laios reveals his special interest and favorite movie of all time is David Cronenberg's Crash (1996), and invites kabru to go watch a demolition derby with him

It's really fucked up when you treat characters like people and people like characters.
