Escape pt 2(3???) Snippet #2(?)
Once again bashing out random bits and pieces that I want to be in here and dumping them on tumblr while I ignore the connections.
also, saw a post from an editor talking about how we write for ourselves so we should write all the fluffy stuff and the breakfast scenes we want, but then take them out before we put the official version out there.
I...I don't do that? That's why these escape series pieces are always so fuckin long. When I honestly write for myself and if I'm going to end up posting it, I'm not cutting those parts out. I know a lot of what I write is basically those cut pieces. And that's what I LIKE to write. So if they're too long...iunno, don't read my completed stuff I guess?
*confused and somewhat distressed shrug* I don't know! I write what I write and I don't take out the floofy bits Why am I trying to defend my style I dont know!
~~~
“Enough.” Eragon didn’t respond. His hand wavered over the elf’s skin as he hovered over a burn that had been revealed as the inflammation of the last gash had faded. “Enough! Eragon!”
Saphira broke him out of it. She lowered her head and nudged her partner’s shoulder, nearly toppling the youth over.
It took him a handful of seconds to acknowledge them even then, clumsily dragging himself up to his knees from the hunch he had landed in before leaning heavily against Saphira’s snout. Eragon could hardly see straight. He could see two of everything, more if he didn’t focus on trying to draw the images together. His hands felt cold even against the warmth of Saphira’s scales.
“B’wnah–” He swallowed hard. Someone passed him a canteen, and sunwarmed water soothed his tacky mouth. “We’re not done yet.” The elf’s back swam in front of his eyes. There was more skin than before, that was certain. Bruised, yes, but the new patches were far more assuring than the mess of burns, gouges and cuts, exposed muscle and…and things he couldn’t explain and didn’t want to know what caused them.
But there was still…still so much. How long had it taken them to just assess the damage? To figure out what needed healing? Eragon set to the task as Brom pointed out the worst as he found them, checked her legs, her arms. The evidence of wounds healed before, others left to time….
And still there was so…so much red. There was so much that needed more than they could provide, had to be covered with shiny, thin membranes of skin that would have to repair itself without magic, the places Brom had shooed him away from with promises that he would stitch them or dress them, to save his and Saphira’s strength.
Eragon didn’t know the woman. But…he…he felt like he knew her, felt like he had some connection to her, felt that he and Saphira had been fated to meet her, and felt that he could have known her for years before. And seeing her like this? Hell, if he had seen anyone like this….
He just wanted to hold on to her. Wrap her in his arms and promise her he wouldn’t let anything else like that happen.
…Granted, from what Brom had said about the elf, that probably would lead to him getting his head stuffed into the closest hollow tree trunk she could find. If he didn’t give her some warning at least.
Brom was speaking. Eragon dragged his eyes away, back to his mentor’s face.
“–ed to move. We can’t do anything more right now, and we can’t stay in one place for too long.”
Murtagh’s voice cut through. “No! Are you mad? Eragon needs to rest, just look at him! He can’ even sit up straight without holding on to Saphira!” Eragon dimly heard the young man moving forward, saw the flash of dark cloth as he gestured toward the pair. “And Saphira! She needs to sleep too, you said yourself she’s giving energy to help cast all that healing magic!”
‘I’m strong enough to fly.’ Saphira murmured to her Rider. Eragon gave her a wan smile from where he was still half draped against her head and scratched under the corner of her jaw. The low hum that vibrated through his chest spread warmth through his bones. ‘You did well, Little One.’
He rocked his face against the jagged crest of one of her eyes, felt the snick of her lid closing against his cheek. ‘She’s still hurt.’
The humming intensified, soothing through his mind as well as his body. ‘But she is better than before. She will live.’
“Eragon can sleep while we ride.” Brom pushed back. “And Saphira’s been dozing on and off, she’s got enough in her to fly far enough that we stay ahead.”
“If you think for a second that we’re going to be able to keep him from falling off Cadoc–”
“I’m fine.” Both men snapped their heads around when Eragon rasped out the words. The youth was shakily fastening the snaps on the back of the elf’s shirt again before gently transferring her off his knees and onto her side. “I’ll…I’ll be okay sleeping in the saddle. Saphira says she’s good to fly.”
Brom gave the boy an appreciative nod. “Good.” Murtagh swore and scrubbed his hands through his hair, stalking off to the horses. “I’m not a fool, whelp. There should be a cave system not far from here, big enough to hide all of us for at least half a day. We can hole up there and rest properly.”
The young man clicked his lips in disdain. “Oh, but of course, it’s not like that’d be the first bloody place they’d search, but who am I to argue! I just lead the bloody horses!”
“It’s not well known. Help me with her, and you–” Brom pointed to Eragon, who was struggling to his feet. “There’s a ration pack in your saddlebags. Eat what you can. And keep drinking that water.” The boy nodded and stumbled towards where Cadoc was tethered. Before he could pass, Brom stopped him with a hand on his shoulder and leaned in. “Good job, boy. I’m proud of you.”
Eragon couldn’t make his eyes see just one horse, so he couldn’t really trust his other senses. But he thought, for a moment, that the usually gruff and rumble tone in his mentor’s voice had taken on a sincere rush of warmth. It felt like his own chest glowed at the words, and then the exhaustion flooded in again and all he could do was nod numbly. He clumsily clapped the man on the arm before he staggered off to eat and collapse into Cadoc’s saddle.

how long did that take you to learn? / Mihai showing a mild interest in Hii's abilities... humor him
"Whaddya mean?" Licks of flame eventually blow out in the wind, the two halves of Inugami's stone pillar left to smolder quietly. Not a speck of dust or debris sat between them; a completely, utterly, perfect, cut.
Duh.
It was rare for Mihai to supervise a group training with the boys like this, when it was-- well, training, and not just sending them to the wolves-- and even more rare when it was outside, but she supposes it being nighttime and the middle of bumfuck nowhere probably helped.
Well, she doesn't want to leave him with an unsatisfactory answer, so Hinata scratches the back of her head with one hand and leans on the nata blade.
"I've always been able to get my fire that hot, at least as far as I can remember. I'm a specialist, y'know? so my folks had me go study after school with some old fart who had as nasty a temper as I did till I stopped almost burnin' the house down. The technique, though... Shit, iunno, few years? Putting people back together with jagged edges is no good, but I'm not a genius like my partner was, so I just fucked around till I figured it out. Pretty cool though, right?" Another pause.
"If my knife's not strong enough, though, it just melts. Makes puttin' people back together a huge pain in the ass."

"Th-... The treehouse?" The wildcat was very obviously uncomfortable with this--shocked by this--why the hell would she want to go there?
"Yeah!" The dragon still had that smile on her face, "It's been a while since we've been there, hasn't it?"
"But, I... it ain't even--"
The wildcat got herself booped on the nose by the dragon, and all she could do in response was pout.
"C'mon," she was practically teasing Carol at this point, "Can't we go see it? It'll be nostalgic!"
Nostalgic in all the wrong ways. She couldn't help but roll her eyes.
But, Lilac's smile, her ever bright and joyful smile. Stones, she couldn't say ''no'' to that. She never could.
"Iunno what's gotten in'ta ya, Lyli, but sure! Lets go for it!"
The wildcat would start walking off, towards that ever familiar forest.
And Lilac would just follow behind. She knows it as well as Carol does, but it'd be better if she went there first, right?
--
The two sat on a log, staring at the wreckage of their former home. A campfire made close to them, but far enough from the house to not accidentally burn it all to ash.
The feline sighed.
It never felt good to come back here.
An awkward cough, a look away from the dragon as she spoke.
"Uh... sorry, Lilac."
The dragon merely turned to her, away from the campfire, with her head tilted to a side. "Sorry for what?"
"For never fixin' this place."
"You say that as if you had an obligation!" She gave that same warm smile again, "You shouldn't feel bad about it. If the roles were reversed, you'd be telling me the same thing."
"Yeah, but it's different when you mess up."
"Really, now? How's that?"
"I... Iunno! It just is. You're like, a super cool dragon an' stuff--you're allowed 'ta mess up--"
"So, what? My best friend isn't ''allowed'' to mess up sometimes? Who told you that nonsense?"
Her head hung low, a sigh escaping her.
"I did, I guess? Iunno, 'Lac, I jus'..." She blew air out of her nose, turning to face the dragon again, "This place always gets me sad these days. Why'd you wanna come here?"
The dragon stayed silent.
They looked into each other's eyes, the dragon's beautiful violet, and the feline's emerald green. It didn't last long, not at all--the dragon broke eye contact first, a blush appearing on her face.
"Hey, Carol, can I ask you something...?"
The wildcat, clearing her throat and staring at the fire again, nodded. "Yeah, go for it."
"Way back when... when we were younger, I remember something."
"That something beeeeeeing?"
The dragon scooched closer to the wildcat, then wrapped an arm around her waist. She noticed her ear twitch once, maybe twice. It was hard to tell.
She rested her head on the feline's shoulder as she spoke, "Whenever I got close to you, kind of like this, you'd always get so embarrassed. It was... cute."
C-Cute...?!?!?
And, stones, she couldn't hide that from her, could she? Her head turned to the sky, her tail slightly swaying from left to right, her ears twitching more than before. It was embarrassing just talking about it now, knowing that she knew about her stupid habits.
"You know why you did it? It's okay if you don't have an answer."
Nervously, the feline scratched her chin, a light chuckle escaping her throat.
"Uhm. Well. Uhhhh, y'see, Lyli--"
"And that nickname. It... always made me feel nice. Was it just on a whim?"
"K-... Kinda?"
"Kinda?"
"I-I mean, I'm sure certain factors went in'ta why I said it--"
"What kinds of factors?"
"UHM. WELL." Her ears twitched and flicked much faster than before, a smile ever growing on her face, "IUN'T RIGHTLY KNOW, YA'KONW? IT'S BEEN SO LONG SINCE I EVEN CAME UP WITH IT, IUN'T THINK I COULD EVER POSSIBLY REMEMBER--"
A light chuckle of her own came from the dragon. A confident smirk on her face.
It felt like she had her answer.
It'd make the next steps easier, at least.
"I'm glad you're taking this harder than I am. I don't know what I'd do if you were as calm and cool as you usually are."
...? Huh?
The hell was she talking about?
The line threw the feline off--she looked back at the dragon again, her ears still twitching.
"Whaddya...?"
"Hey, lets play a game!"
Lilac sat up straight, still holding onto the wildcat like her life depended on it.
"Would you rather! You go first!"
...The hell was up with this girl tonight? She seemed more bouncy than usual. More... avoidy-questions-y than usual. This ain't normal. Not really.
"Uh, okay." Carol could always ask about it later. "Would you ratheeeeer," she looked around the forest, trying to find something to question her about. Something real, reaaaaal tricky.
"Would you rather jump off a tree, or jump off a buildin'?" Yeah she had nothing.
"A tree!" She answered quickly, "I can run down the tree a lot safer than I can a building. Like, what if I break a window going down one?"
"Lame answer, honestly. Goin' down a buildin's a lot more fun! Makes it more excitin'!!! Will you break a window, will you not? NOBODY KNOWS!!"
Subtly, the wildcat wrapped her arm around the other's waist. The dragon pretended not to notice, but she'd lean a little more into the feline when she did it.
"Alright, my turn--would you rather sell your bike, or sell the gemerald?"
YIKES, NOW THAT'S A HARD QUESTION.
Carol had to actually think for a minute, ponder every option, every possibility, every single scenario in which selling one would be worse than selling the other. After a low growl, then a sigh, she'd respond, "As much as Iun't wanna... I can always jus' make another bike, right? The gemerald's crazy unique--I can't jus' sell somethin' like that, no matter how much money I'd get from it."
"Eeeexpected~. But do you really think you can do the transforming thing again?"
"Hey! I did it once, didn't I?" She showed a proud, toothy grin, rubbing the tip of her nose with her free hand. "Aight, my turn again!
"Would you ratheeeeer... blow up a bank, or blow up a hospital?"
"STONES, THAT'S KIND OF DARK?!?!"
And to that, the feline shrugged, "Hey, you ain't say nothin' about that~."
A roll of her eyes, she put her free hand to her chin and thought. "Well... probably the bank, right? It's just money at the end of the day. You can always get more money."
"Yeaaaah, as much as I'd like 'ta be contrarian, I'd 'prolly say the bank, too. Hurts my soul that so much beautiful cash would get destroyed though...!" She put a finger to her eye and mock-wiped away a tear.
"Hm... would you ratherrr," a devious smirk fell on the dragon's face, "Kiss Dail or Spade?"
?!?!?!?!?!?!
"WHAT. WHY ARE YOU MAKIN' ME PICK BETWEEN THEM?"
The dragon only giggled.
The feline only groaned.
"Dail, obviously. He's at least tolerable--I ain't gettin' anywhere near Spade with my lips." Harumph! She'd cross her arms but she remembered where one was currently being situated, so she just did this awkward thing where one arm was under the other's pit? It was weird, the wildcat knew it was weird, but she had to get her point across DAMN IT!
Lilac giggled even harder, putting her other hand to her mouth. "Same there! I'd sooner kiss him with my FIST than my lips."
"Give 'em the good ol' face punchies!!" Another moment to think. She was going there, was she? Well, two could play at that game.
"Would you rather kiss Zao or kiss the Magister?"
"That one's almost worse than mine!!! Yuck!!!" Followed by more giggles, she leaned her head on her shoulder again. "Probably the Magister? I wouldn't want to crouch down just to give someone a kiss!"
"Yeah, two feet is waaay too short. He'd need like, five stools!!"
"PFFFFFFT, STOP THAT'S TERRIBLE!!!" She slapped her hand against the feline's chest as they both laughed. It felt like old times. Felt like those times where the only ones who mattered were each other, when there weren't any worries or trauma that brought them down.
After their laughter died down, a blush came upon Lilac's face--her gaze was away from the feline. She didn't want to see how she looked when she asked this next one. "O-Okay, would you rather kiss Merga or Cordelia?"
Heh? In comparison to the last couple, that one seemed kind of bizarre. But, she didn't think on it much--nor the question or her reasoning for asking it. She just answered, bluntly and honestly, "Merga, 'prolly. She's taller than me, stronger than me, faster than me--heck, if she wasn't so scary she'd probably remind me of--"
. . .
"Remind you of who?"
Ears twitched again, she looked back up at the sky. "Eh, n-nobody. Iun't even know why I said that.
"W-What about you? Merga or Cordelia, since ya wanna ask weird questions an' all."
"Cordelia," she answered, without missing a beat. "She's snarky, funny--if she wasn't an earth dragon, she'd remind me of someone."
"...Who?"
She tried to close as much space as she possibly could, grabbing the feline's head to make her eyes look into the dragon's.
"Would you rather kiss a princess, or a prince?"
"U-Uhm," her ears started flicking again, the feline almost wanted to look away, but she just... couldn't. Her eyes were too beautiful.
"A... p-princess. I think."
A full blush, a couple sway sof her tail--it was hard to hide how Lilac really felt now. "W-Would you rather--"
"Hey! It's," Carol's voice dropped to a whisper--there was no need to yell, not like this. Not when she could almost feel her breath on her face. "It ain't your turn."
Too excited, too eager. She couldn't help but turn her head away. "S-Sorry... I, I think I got ahead of myself there."
The feline bit her lip. Fear, anxiety, a stream of nervousness shot into her body. Why the hell was she feeling like this? Why the hell was she so scared for?
"Uhm... W-Would you rather...
"k-kiss... a dog... or a cat."
She turned back to the feline, eyes widened, almost as she were looking at shooting stars.
"A... cat, I think.
"Would you rather...
"A panda, or a dragon?"
Stones was this really happening...?
"D-Dragon. Definitely a dragon."
She got dangerously close to the dragon--their noses touched. They breathed heavy, ever so close to what they wanted.
"Cory, o-or..."
The feline trailed off.
Her other hand rested itself on the dragon's back.
The fire crackled, it being their only constant throughout this night.
Well, that
And each other.
The dragon closed the gap, pressing her lips against her feline, closing her eyes as she did. She held her tight, tighter than she's ever held anyone before.
The feline leaned into her lips, her eyes closing as soon as the dragon made contact. It was an experience she never thought she'd get, never thought she deserved. She savored it, wishing that this moment, this solitary moment between the two, would last until the sun came to rise back up.
They held it, cherished it, loved it, just as much as they loved each other. For as long as they could, for as much as they could.
And, after a moment, their need for air was finally calling to them. A mutual break, a mutual pant.
Yet, the dragon was the first to speak, whispering to the feline.
"You."

Zero exams down, six to go.
In the late spring heat, pencils scratch against paper in an otherwise silent classroom. The seconds seem to thud onward, measured by the even tick-tock of the clock on the wall, marking the moments that remain in the first of many final exams. A fan at the back of the class, whirring back and forth, ruffles papers and hair and nerves as it punctuates the pencil-scratching.
At the front of the room sits a blackboard, empty of assignments. It’s almost the end, it seems to say. There’s little left for you here.
In an otherwise nondescript class of students, there are a few standouts. In the front row sits a dirty-blonde whirlwind of a girl in a plaid skirt, equipped with pigtails, a well-stocked mechanical pencil, and raw determination. She scribbles as fast as she can, nose to the paper. The more she writes, the more confident her smile becomes.
To her right sits a less speedy scribbler, a black and white-striped cataclysm of a boy with an impeccably pressed uniform, hand stilling on his paper every time a question stumps him. Occasionally, the tapping of his foot joins in with the pencils and the fan as he plays the off-beat in the final exam symphony. In the back of the class when a piece of paper rips, he flinches just a little.
In the back corner near the door sits another boy, a beryl-blue hurricane, removing each of the corners from his test paper. He has already finished his exam, because he writes the first thing that comes to mind. He believes this makes him wise - a somewhat dubious prospect. If anything, it makes him impulsive. But if you can’t make the right decision on the fly, then what’s the point?, is what he would say.
Finally, in the other back corner sits one final boy, a red-and-white rhapsody, staring out the window with a song in his soul. His test lies forgotten for the moment as he taps out a soft rhythm on the desk, quiet enough for only his ears. His eyes drift around the classroom with affected boredom, though when his gaze lands on the girl in the front row, something stirs behind them.
At this moment, the girl in the front stands to take her test to the front, and she happens to glance his way. She sends him a questioning look, but quickly turns to the front again, breaking the contact.
As he looks back out the window, there’s a flush in his cheeks that has little to do with the heat.
----
One exam down, five to go.
“Dude. I did so good! ”
They walk in a line, shoulders brushing, necks craned towards the sun. Newly escaped from the heat of the classroom, their shoulders are lighter, the white and blue of their uniforms mirroring the sky.
“Did you answer every question this time?” asks the rhapsody, adjusting the headband in his hair while he squints against the sun.
“Um, yes,” the hurricane says. “Last time I just didn’t because--”
“You got distracted by a fly ,” says the whirlwind.
“I was on a mission!” he insists, punching his fist in the air. “And I caught it!” He holds up his fingers in front of the cataclysm's face, clicking them together like chopsticks.
The other three shake their heads before they all stop in tandem, watching the road ahead wind away from the school.
“You going home?” the girl asks, to no one in particular.
“Nah.”
“Nope.”
“Me neither.”
“... You want some company?”
And so they lie in the grass, as they have many times before.
“Hey, Black*Star?”
The hurricane turns his head, blue hair against green grass. He’s a walking Google Earth. “Yeeees, Maka?”
“What are you doing this summer?”
He turns his head back to the sky. “Dunno yet. Might get a job.” He pauses. “Think your dad is looking for help?”
Her mouth thins into a line. “I don’t know. You can ask him.”
“Awww, c’mon, I don’t wanna talk to---
“And I do?” she says, turning onto her side, away from him. “Just get Sid to talk to him for you, then.”
“Sid’s been… busy,” he says. Maka’s expression softens a little in the silence that follows.
“What about you, Kid?” she says, glancing up.
The cataclysm sighs. “I’m sure Father will find something for me to do around the building.”
“Around the school?” Black*Star says. “Gross.”
“I’ve worked here every summer for years,” Kid says, nonplussed. Black*Star looks genuinely surprised and a little guilty.
“Whoops. Guess I blacked it out?” he offers.
“Yeah, probably,” says the final boy, holding a hand up to shield red eyes against the sun as he looks at the group. “That sounds like your worst nightmare.”
Maka pulls out her notebook and starts to doodle, looping letters filling up the page. Eyes trained downward, she asks, with a carefully controlled nonchalance: “How about you, Soul?”
He is no better, still hiding behind his hand, and his response comes out as one word: “Iunno.”
“...Well,” Maka says, plucking herself up to look at them all, now. “I want us to do loads this summer. Adventures and fun and new experiences ! So you’d all better be ready.”
“Yeah!” Black*Star says, reaching up to high-five her. “We’re gonna take this town by storm .”
“... Let’s get through exams first?” Kid says, raising his eyebrow at Black*Star as he visibly deflates.
They’ve spent many afternoons like this since they were small, laying outside and letting the grass and wind and sun soothe their worries. A group thrown together by chance, but stuck together by choice.
The words become indented as she traces them in her notebook, over and over again:
I hope things never change. <3
-----------
Two exams down, four to go.
Maka enters the library early, her focus already shifted into science-study mode after the previous day’s final. Already set up, Kid waves her over, and the two of them sit in silence for a while, the flipping of pages occasionally breaking the silence.
Finally, when she glances over at Kid, her eyes land on the book he’s reading.
“You aren’t studying!” she says, surprised.
He has the decency to look a little guilty, but not too much. “I felt quite prepared for science, actually, so I’ve started on Socials.”
She pulls the book up to survey the cover. “A History of Reincarnation?”
He pushes the book back down with a little glare at her, though there’s no real annoyance behind it. “I think I’d like to write the essay about this topic, so I’m reading about it again.”
Maka closes her science book. “It’s an interesting topic, isn’t it? What do you think about it?”
He brings a hand to his chin, considering. “Well, the introduction of the concept into psychoanalysis seems to have been a turning point in its study, though I’d say its presence in Hinduism also--”
“No, I mean,” Maka says, because he’s getting on a tangent. He is very good at getting on tangents, and she is good at stopping them. “Do you think it could be real?”
Hand retreats from chin to tap on the table. “...Do I believe the soul is immortal, and simply takes on a different form at the end of each life?”
She nods, and his golden eyes survey her, seeming to analyze her expression. “I don’t think we know enough about souls to make a claim,” he says. “But I can’t disprove it, so I suppose it’s possible. ...What do you think?”
Neither of them are sure why there are tears prickling at the corners of her eyes. “I think… that would be amazing. I wonder…” she pauses. “If it’s real, I wonder if souls can find one another, in the next life. I wonder if they meet again and again, and it’s new and different every time.”
He considers this. “If that’s the case, do you think we’d know any better?”
Defensiveness brings her shoulders up to her ears. “I know I would.”
He simply nods, because he has the feeling that he knows what this is about, and he knows when to let things lie.
Or does he?
“I guess you couldn’t convince the others to come this morning?” Kid asks her after a moment, eyes fixed back on the page.
“Nope,” she confirms, sufficiently distracted. “Getting Black*Star to wake up at 7:00 on a review day?”
“I thought… Soul might’ve come, though,” Kid says lightly.
“No,” Maka says, shaking her head. “He cares about sleep too much.”
Kid looks up at her, finally. But there’s something else he cares about more, is what he wants to say.
Because Kid is an astute observer, and today he has made the following observation:
This was a conversation about souls, in every sense of the word.
---------------
Three exams down, three to go.
“I don’t wanna go to class,” Black*Star says, hands extended behind his head as they walk down the hallway. “All we’re doing is review, anyway.”
“Review is important,” Maka says, rolling her eyes. “And you won’t do it on your own, so--”
“This is for Socials, though,” he replies, and suddenly, a little glint appears in his eye that nobody misses. “We should… review for Socials by being social .”
“That’s not what we’re being tested--”
“I dare you,” he says, and the other two boys slow their pace as they look between them, eyebrows raised, as Maka’s eyes narrow.
“You dare me to wh--”
“ Skip class, miss almost-valedictorian. You won’t do it.”
“You’re right,” she says with a little sniff. “I won’t.”
He stops, rounding on her, and pronounces the lines that he knows will work. “You scared?”
“Not scared.” Her voice is cool, but not as aloof as before.
“Scared.”
Her hands ball into fists. “Take it back, Black*Star.”
He grins, because he knows he has won. “Okay, fine. Catch me and I will!” And he bursts into action, barreling down the hallway, his laugh bouncing off the walls.
Maka’s quick on his heels, and the other two boys let out a sigh in tandem, hoisting their bags over their shoulders as they resign themselves to not reviewing for Socials.
Minutes later, they sit with their backs against painted wood, careful to avoid the splinters, the peeling paint. It’s important to hide, and so they shield themselves around the corner of the shop, away from any prying eyes that could be watching from the schoolyard.
“Wanna bite?” Black*Star says, extending his ice cream so that it almost bumps into her cheek. She glares at him but still gives it a lick, leaning back against the wall and closing her eyes.
The sun on their skin is a salve, weathering away the stress of exams with its warmth.
But there’s a slight tousle in Maka’s hair thanks to the wind, and it feels, strange and scary as it might sound, like change .
“S’almost time for next class,” Soul says, eyeing Maka out of the corner of his eye.
“... Let’s… just stay?” she says, closing her eyes again.
If Black*Star has opinions about her wanting to stay, he keeps them to himself, and in their own small way, they fight against the passing of time with a gentle afternoon in the sun.
Four exams down, two to go.
The music room is another oasis for them; quiet, calm, serene.
Unfortunately, it is an ambiance that is somewhat distorted when Black*Star is pestering Soul about playing the piano.
“Aww c’mon! Just one song?” Black*Star asks, laying on his back on top of the piano as he swings his legs.
“It doesn’t sound right when you lay on it like that,” Soul grumbles.
“All right.” Black*Star jumps down, calling his bluff. “All better. Go ahead, then.”
Soul hunches in on himself. It’s an attempt to look defensive, but he just looks defeated. “Don’t wanna.”
“Leave him alone, Black*Star,” Maka says as she lets the door swing shut behind her. “If he doesn’t want to--”
“Don’t you wanna hear a song?” he asks her, knocking on the piano top with his wrist so that it echoes.
“I mean.” Maka stops, glancing down at the books in her hand. “I love listening to his music, but--”
“ Love! ” Black*Star croons. “ Strong words.”
“He… knows that,” she says, a fierce flush lighting up her cheeks.
She glances up to see what Soul’s face looks like. It is impossible to discern if he does know that, as he has deflated further, head against the piano in embarrassment.
“I’ll… play somethin’,” he says, voice strained against the keys.
Black*Star and Kid exchange a glance.
They
are
hopeless , is what they’d like to say.
---------
Five exams down, one to go.
The late afternoon sun slips past the trees, casting tree-branch shadows on Maka’s legs as she props a final textbook on her lap. Much as she’d like to study, her gaze keeps getting drawn to the sky, to the puffy clouds that pass, pulling them closer to the end of exams.
It’s a strange time, she thinks. The in-between. They’re in between exams, in between years of school. And it’s both ephemeral and permanent, the in-between. As soon as one thing ends, they’re moving on to something new, but they always face it together.
Maybe that’s why this is why the four of them thrive as a group: because they exist best in the in-between. Between their school and home lives, between the moments of anger and laughter, nestled between each other on grassy fields, gazes trained upward.
She loves them all so much that it hurts sometimes - they’re all so different, but so similar in their own ways.
But she can still feel it - something is changing. It’s been changing for a while.
She can feel it when she watches his fingers dance down the piano, when she wants to look at him for a little too long. And she thinks that she catches him doing the same thing, sometimes. But she can’t be sure. Daring to hope feels like too tall a task.
The book slides through her hands and onto the ground; she can’t study when her mind is all over the place.
Instead she stands, and walks toward another field in the distance in an attempt to leave her thoughts behind.
“Wait!” Black*Star’s voice booms in the distance. “We’re coming too!”
The sunflowers aren’t blooming just yet, which gives them enough room to walk through the stalks without feeling too closed in. Maka reaches her hand out to touch the flowers as they pass, velvety stems bringing her a sense of calm, of familiarity. They’ve journeyed to this field more times than she can count; it is a home of little time capsules and hide and seek games, forever a prequel to the scene of coming home and dumping soil out of their shoes.
Suddenly, with a startling amount of vigor, she wants to hold on to this moment. No need for their last exams, for the unpredictability of summer. She wants to be right here, in their sunflower sea. Just beneath the surface of the world, with the people she loves most.
“Hey.” she says, reaching out with her voice. She’s not sure how close they are, but she knows they will hear her. “Hide and seek? I’ll be it.”
There’s a rumble of assent from various places in the field, and off she goes to find them.
Through the maze she walks, listening for crackles in the underbrush, for clothes catching on sunflower bristles.
She sees him first; catches a glimpse of white between the branches. When their eyes meet, she presses a finger to her lips, splitting a bashful smile down the middle. He’s frozen in place, dumbstruck as she points to his left and then to herself, then slips away again into the brush.
His hand reaches after her of its own accord, hanging in the air.
Would you let me follow if I asked? is what he’s dying to say.
----------------------
Six exams down, zero to go.
As Maka leaves the classroom, the wind seems to rush past her with an emotional sort of finality, and it’s exhilarating.
Until she realizes that that wind is very literal, spun into a frenzy by a hurricane.
“Black*Star, stop running again! ” Maka starts to yell after him. “Don’t get in trouble on the last day of-- ”
Another burst of wind flies by her, and her eyes arc toward the ceiling. “Not you too!” she yells after Soul, who is laughing, running up to give Black*Star a high five.
They’re always egging each other on, she thinks. That’ll never change. But try as she might, she can’t fight the next thought that appears in her head, unbidden:
It’s a nice change to see him smile, isn’t it?
Just in front of her, Kid turns back to her and asks something that sets her nerves on edge:
“Maka. Can we talk outside for a moment?”
---------------
And onward.
“I’m leaving,” Kid says, sitting across from her on grass, and ice abruptly enters her heart.
“...Just for the summer,” he amends, because the panic in her eyes is palpable. “Apologies. That wasn’t very tactful, I guess.”
Ice thaws quickly when fire is applied. “ Why? ” Maka says, indignant. “But we had plans, where are you--”
“Father got put in charge of another school for the summer,” he says with a little shrug. “I’m going too. He needs help in the library.”
She wants to pout, but she also doesn’t want to act like a child.
“I wanted us all to be together this summer,” she says softly, hand on her notebook, where wishes from sunny days past are etched.
“... I know,” he says. “I know you don’t like… change.”
The wind whistles through the trees, making her pigtails flutter.
“But,” he continues. “ I was thinking. Since things are already about to change, you could change things more . If you wanted to.”
She’s confused, and she knows he’s trying to give her some sort of clue, eyes boring into her just a little impatiently. When she doesn’t give him visual confirmation, he sighs, rubbing the line between his eyebrows with a finger.
“What I’m trying to say is, you could sit here with me on this grass like we’ve always done.” He levels her with a look. “Or you could go up there, and change something that you’ve been wanting to change for a while.”
She follows the direction of his hand, the wind making the tree branch shadows dance on his extended finger, and she knows where it leads.
He’s pointing at the window to the music room.
-------------------
And onward.
If there’s one thing Maka knows, it is how to be brave. It’s not something conscious -- it’s something that lives in her essence , that has been with her since the beginning of her life. Maybe in other lives, too.
And it is this entrenched, beautiful, cosmic bravery that leads her up the stairs to burst into the music room to interrupt a rhapsody, who stares at her from the piano with a peculiar new song in his soul.
She’s breathless from the run, leaning into the door as it shuts behind her.
He’s breathless because she’s never looked at him quite that way before.
The late afternoon sun filters in through the curtains, spilling across the desks, the musical instruments. Dust motes float on the beams, catching sunlight as they pass.
“...Here,” she says, moving towards the window. “Can you… come over here for a second?”
“Y-yeah.” He stands, edges towards her. Beside the window, the curtains flutter around them, whipped into a frenzy by a whirlwind.
“I don’t… like change,” Maka says.
He nods. He’s known that as long and as well as he’s known her.
She takes a step toward him, and it sends heat straight to his toes. “But I’d like to change… something. Okay?”
There’s a flush in her cheeks, now, that has little to do with the heat.
“Okay,” he says, but it comes out as a whisper.
“Just… just tell me if--” She takes another step towards him, and he forgets to breathe as he watches the space between her eyebrows bunch together, sunlight catching on her eyelashes. “If anything isn’t--”
A shaky laugh escapes him. Doesn’t she know he’d follow her anywhere? “Yeah, okay. I’ll tell you.”
She doesn’t know if souls can remember one other, from one life to the next. But she’s determined that in this existence, in this universe , she will make sure that this, a tenuous connection between two souls, it’s something new and different and beautiful.
And so, with this in mind, she closes her eyes, closes the space between them, and the dust motes burst into galaxies.

dumb vore story 2:electric boogaloo.
(part two)
(please read the first one if you haven't already i would love that)
(sorry if it seems a bit bad)
(go ahead and give me some asks for the next thingy i beg of you)
It was in the middle of the day, Sugar and Rai were outside, exploring.
"Did you like yesterday?" Rai looked over at Sugar, who was on his shoulder, gripping on really hard to avoid not falling off.
"Although it wasn't my cup of tea, i found it somehow enjoyable." Sugar shrugged.
"So, why are we out here anyways?"
"I dunno, I just wanted to hopefully find some things that could help us..not die perhaps?" Rai frowned.
"Okay, I can understand that." Sugar huffed, looking around.
It was silent for a while after that, until Rai decided to pipe up.
"So..did you have any siblings..or anything?" He awkwardly smiled, still looking ahead for any signs of civilization, or at least something to help him.
"Eh, my mind's a bit fuzzy, but I DO know I had a brother." Sugar scratched the back of her head.
"What was their name?"
"..iunno, why are you asking me this? Like, half of my memory was washed away." Sugar crossed her arms, frowning.
"Oh man, geez okay." Rai scoffed, looking for better things to do than talk with her.
"..Sorry, I just..really scared for the future." Sugar started to worry.
"What do you mea-""I mean im afraid we are just going to be corpses in a stump!"
Rai stopped walking, and looked down.
"Well..I can see why." He looked over at Sugar.
Sugar looked really worried.
"Hey, it's going to be okay, alright?"
"I just gotta, find more food before winter."
"Isn't winter really far away, though?" Sugar raised a 'candybrow'.
"Crap, I dunno, maybe? I don't really know, since i also lost half of my memory."
"..Hey, are you alright?" Rai started to wonder about Sugar.
"Yeah, im just a bit..scared, for the future I guess." Sugar started to tear up.
"Aw man, is there any way i can help?" Rai smiled reassuringly, he wanted to let Sugar know it's gonna be okay.
"Uh, well, I would like to go in there." Sugar would point at Rai's stomach.
"..You want to go in my shirt?" Rai raised a 'cloud'brow.
"No, your stomach." Sugar would blush, putting her palms on her cheeks.
"Oh, okay." Rai would snicker, before offering his hand towards Sugar.
Sugar would gladly accept, walking on top of Rai's palm.
"I can tell you have already gotten used to this, eh?" Rai would continue to snicker.
Sugar would nod, embarrassed in herself for liking such a thing.
"Okay, im ready."
"Okay then, get ready for a 3 second rollercoaster." Rai would laugh, before opening his mouth and pushing Sugar in.
Sugar would yelp, because she wasn't used to the 'fall'.
But, no matter, Sugar started to lay on Rai's floofiness, already feeling better.
But..she still thought about what would happen, would she die? Or find civilization?
"Man, it's like I ate a hot dog, but didn't chew it." Rai huffed, before feeling suddenly tired.
"Man, I gotta head back to the stump."
Before Rai could turn around, he saw something bright not too far.
It seemed to be a circle, just a really bright circle, it vanished once it was seen.
"..What in the hell?" Rai started to turn back, running to the big tree.
Sugar didn't care what was happening, she was starting to fall asleep anyways.
Few minutes passed, and Rai made it back to the 'house', what he saw, he could not understand.
"F..uck. I need some rest." Rai sighed, before sitting next to the lantern, and shutting his eyes.
It was still day time, but whatever Rai saw, it made him tired, he thought about this while he rested his eyes, is he being watched? or is this a crap remake of The Matrix, and he's really in some sort of virtual reality?
He sighed, before trying to doze off to sleep.
(you came to the end again, this seemed a little bad to me, but hopefully you tolerate it, i dont really.)

hecking *love* your human slick design, so choice, wanna give us some of those head canons chief?
OH BOY HOWDY DO I! They aren’t super like, Organized or anything so I hope you dont mind me going off! Have this drawing first of alls
Spades Slick (Also known as Jack Noir, only if you’re in the Crew or related, Sn0wman, or Scratch. Anyone else, better hope you don’t know.) adopted Karkat off the streets when he was about 4, and tried to mug the scariest crime lord in the city with a knife he found. Slick was like Nice gumption kid, and took him and the hermit crab he had stolen from the beach front store in as his own
Rest of my hcs Under the cut!
He’s been running the Crew for most of his life, used to be part of a different one before splitting off with the Midnight Crew, and his crime empire is one of the biggest ones out there. After adopting Karkat (The rest of the Stabkids are actually blood related to their respective fathers from various relationships over the years, with aradia being the oldest. They are around the same age however.)
karkats birth family, the Signless was his dad (idk really about his mom) and they lived in New Mexico and the Signless, was really pro anti establishment but he’d go around and help members of the community but they got busted in a raid under the false pretense that they had narcotics in their base of operations since he was starting to look into things people didn’t want him to, and at this time Kankri is about like 5, and Karkats only about 1. In the midst of all this and the signless being detained, they’re forced into the adoption system and Kankris picked up by this very white very christian family, and Karkats shipped off to a Foster home he runs away from. He lives on the streets until he finds Slick around 4 who takes him in and adopts him.
Years later he wants to find out about his birth family, even a little bit and Slick and him go to his old foster home and find out his last name Vantas which he was never sure of because he was too young to remember it, he’s been Karkat Noir and he tries getting in contact with Kankri and the Signless who’s been in jail for years and deported
slick is very apprehensive about letting karkat see the signless, but hes honestly probably the one who’s set it up because he knows how much it means to karkat and. The signless is continuously a man to be hard to be mad at. Its impossible look at him.And this might even be where karkat finds out about kankri? Whos come to visit the signless a few times himself but who karkat didnt know about
And so he drags the other stabkids when theyre all around 17-18ish to find kankri and slick just barely lets him go bc. Slicks Mean but also. He cares so much about Karkat and he knows itll kill him thinking about this brother he didnt know existed. Slick also knows karkat is far too soft to take over the crew one day and its been on his mind since day 1
karkat gets to meet the dolorosa and hes never had a grandma before (slicks parents are Waaaaaayyyy outta the picture) and hes never met someone like her before and he is sort of loving it ans kankri who will deny enjoying himself there a lot definitely loves spending time with her tooPorrim and kanaya are her grand daughters (whos their mom or dad? Iunno)
Karkat is, terrified when he runs home one day after getting word what happened while he was at college and the place is trashed and slick is nowhere to be seen and he nearly loses it because he thinks slicks dead for a moment before Slick slowly comes in behind him missing an eye and an arm Karkats known almost his entire life.
Aradia sollux and tavros all have to visit their dads in jail and slicks falling apart without them by his side and karkat has to like, realize for the first time i think that spades slick is not invulnerable no matter how much he thinks he is
Im sorry that was mostly about Karkat kghsdkg
Slick views the midnight crew aligned in a very Italian Family style sort of mob manner, very focused on keeping things how he wants them and how his family wants them, and putting them above anything else.

Weirdo Duo / Shadow and Light | KageHina and KagaKuro, Slash or Gen, G, 2.1k
NaNoWriMo Day 21: Crossover AU
Day Four of AU Week! Posting a new AU fic every day for one week.
Summary: Kageyama and Hinata get lost at a mall in Tokyo, but two boys and their dog help them out.
Can be read as gen or slash. Can also be considered canon compliant even though this technically fell under AU Week.
Read on Ao3
A/N: I took a poll and HQ x KNB crossover won. Here's what happens when the two main pairings meet at a Maji Burger lol. Love and kisses thanks to @steak-titties91 for the beta ♥♥♥ All other mistakes are my own.
“We’re so late,” Tobio huffs, holding tight to his bag as he sprints through the mall. Next to him, Hinata easily keeps up.
They come to a halt at an exit, looking around but unable find a single familiar face. Panicking, Tobio pulls out his phone, seeing the screen flash the time at him before shutting off.
“Fuck, I’m out of battery!” he says, tapping at it, but it’s no use. His phone’s definitely dead.
“Kageyamaaaa,” Hinata whines, “I told you not to use your phone when we were eating. Mine’s dead too, remember?”
“It’s not my fault you didn’t charge your phone last night!” he argues, before pocketing his phone. “Now we don’t have a way to call everyone.”
Hinata looks around with a blush. The look on his face does not comfort Tobio in the slightest.
“What now?”
“I think we’re at the wrong entrance,” Hinata admits. “I might’ve taken the wrong turn somewhere.”
“Dumbass! You got us lost now!” Tobio yells before smacking Hinata in the back of the head. The middle blocker growls, pouncing on him. Tobio screeches when Hinata pulls his hair.
They were supposed to meet with the rest of the team at the mall entrance so they could return to the hotel together, but somehow Tobio got stuck with his moron of a partner when everyone split for lunch. Now they have 1) missed the meeting time and 2) gotten lost in the mall.
When they finally stop fighting, Tobio’s rubbing his cheeks because Hinata had pinched them. He asks, “How many entrances even are there in this place?”
“I don’t know!” Hinata says, scratching his head. “I thought this was the entrance we’re supposed to meet at!”
“Obviously not, idiot, since no one’s here.”
“Shut up! Like you know anything.”
Tobio scans the shops nearby, remembering something. “Aren’t we supposed to be at the entrance next to a burger place or something?”
“Maji Burger!” Hinata gasps. “I think I know which entrance we’re supposed to go to!” He grabs Tobio’s wrist, beginning to sprint away with Tobio trailing behind.
“Slow down, dumbass!” he yells as he trips all over himself.
Hinata looks over his shoulder with a smirk. “You saying you can’t keep up?”
Tobio pulls his wrist from Hinata’s grasp to race ahead. Like hell that idiot’s going to beat him.
“Oi, Baka-yama, you’re not even going the right way!”
They eventually find the entrance with the Maji burger, but their team is nowhere in sight.
“Shit,” Tobio curses, “it’s because we’re late.”
Hinata whines. “Aw, I thought they would have waited for us!”
“They said to be on time, dumbass.”
“Still.”
They exit the mall, continuing to look around for any sign of Karasuno but finding no one. Tobio frowns, clutching his gym bag close.
“Kageyama!” Hinata calls. When Tobio looks over, he sees Hinata pointing at something behind a bench. “Look!”
Tobio walks over, brows furrowing when he sees what’s caught his partner’s attention:
A dog.
It’s small, basically a puppy, with incredibly fluffy black and white fur and an adorably cute face. It wears a black and white jersey with a giant SEIRIN emblazoned across the chest. It sits obedient and well mannered behind the bench, without a collar or a leash, staring up at them with giant blue eyes.
Hinata crouches down, handing reaching out to pet his head.
“Aw, so cute!” he coos when the puppy sniffs his hand, and Tobio immediately says, “Don’t touch it! What if it bites you?”
Hinata ignores him. “You’re not gonna bite me, are you?” he says in a sweet voice, and Tobio frowns. What the hell kind of tone is that anyway?
“Stop touching it!” he demands when Hinata continues to pet the thing. “We don’t know if it has fleas or something.”
The middle blocker scratches the puppy’s chin, baby-talking to it as he pointedly ignores Tobio.
“He doesn’t have fleas.”
Tobio jumps, completely startled by the voice that joins their conversation. He’s only less embarrassed because Hinata actually topples over from where he was squatting.
Next to them is a plain looking boy with blue hair, dressed in a black and white tracksuit. He has a drink in one hand and carries a gym bag with the other. He looks at Tobio first, then at Hinata. Something about his eyes remind Tobio of something, but he can’t tell what yet, mostly because when the hell did this guy even show up?!
“What are you doing?” the boy asks, and Tobio notices how flat his voice is.
“Just, uh, petting this dog,” Hinata finally answers. “Is he yours?”
“Yes,” the boy says. “That’s my dog.”
“Kuroko!” another voice calls out, and Tobio looks behind him to see a tall boy with dark red hair and wearing the same tracksuit walking over. Weirder than the fact that his eyebrows split at the end is that he’s haphazardly carrying about a dozen loose burgers in one arm.
“Kuroko!” the taller one calls once more. He gives Tobio and Hinata the once over, and Tobio scowls at him. “These guys giving you a hard time?”
“Kagami-kun,” the blue haired one (Kuroko?) says. “No, I was just wondering what they were doing with Nigou.”
“Nigou?” Hinata chirps. “Is that his name?”
“Yes. His name is Nigou Tetsuya.”
Hinata giggles, and Tobio rolls his eyes. “Why Nigou? Who’s Ichigou?”
Kuroko points at himself. “Me. I’m Kuroko Tetsuya. The First.”
Tobio and Hinata shoot him confused looks. “Huh?”
“It’s the eyes, dude,” the taller one (Kagami?) says, dropping down to sit on the bench with his legs spread wide. He takes a huge bite out of one of the burgers, and Tobio’s eyes widen at the fact that he just ate half the sandwich.
“Eyes...?” Hinata mutters. Curious, Tobio looks at the dog, then back to Kuroko, then back to the dog once more.
Their eyes are exactly the same.
“Woah!” Hinata squawks, petting Nigou again. “That’s awesome! How’d you get a dog that looked like you?”
Kuroko shrugs. “I didn’t. I found him behind a restaurant and we adopted him.”
“‘We’?” Tobio asks.
“F’he f’eam,” the taller one says, biting around another burger.
“Kagami-kun, it’s impolite to speak with your mouth full.”
Kagami rolls his eyes.
“What team?” Tobio presses. What if they’re from a volleyball team? They’re in tracksuits, after all. Maybe Tobio can check out their setter...
He takes a seat on the other end of the bench, trying to sit as far away as possible from Kagami, who’s apparently trying to using his mouth as a vacuum to eat everything. Hinata continues to play with Nigou, petting his face and scratching his ears. Kuroko seems unbothered by everything and begins to sip on his drink.
“Basketball team,” Kagami says. After he burps, he mutters, “‘scuse me.”
Tobio deflates, lips pursed. Basketball, pfft.
“Ooh,” Hinata hums. “It’s so cool that you get to have your own team pet!”
“Yes,” Kuroko says, smiling softly. It’s the first time Tobio’s seen any emotion from him aside from a blank stare. “Nigou’s the official team mascot.”
“So cool!” Hinata suddenly turns to him with bright eyes, and Tobio knows that face means trouble. “Hey, Kageyama, what if we got a pet mascot for the volleyball team?”
“Idiot,” he immediately says, “who’s gonna take care of it?”
Hinata shrugs. “Iunno, maybe the managers or sensei.”
“We have to look after Nigou,” Kuroko pitches in, taking another slurp of his drink. “The teacher advisor for our team has no responsibility, and we don’t have any managers, so we rotate who looks after Nigou. Even Coach.”
“See?” Tobio says. “We’d have to look after the thing, and I don’t have time for that. And neither do you!”
Hinata continues moan and complain. “You’re a spoil sport.”
“Shut up.”
“You are though.”
“I said shut up!”
“Hey, what were your names again?” Kagami asks, seemly indifferent to their bickering. Tobio assumes it’s because he’s so busy with his burgers that he could care less.
“Oh, I’m Hinata Shouyou!” the middle blocker says, smiling brightly at Kagami and Kuroko. Hinata’s always been the friendliest on the team, but Tobio’s witnessed too many times that it gets him into trouble.
With that in mind, Tobio’s much more wary, mumbling, “I’m Kageyama Tobio.”
“We’re first years, from Karasuno!”
“Karasuno?” Kagami repeats. “Never heard of that school.”
“We’re from Miyagi!” Hinata says, turning his attention back to Nigou. “We’re just visiting Tokyo because we have a practice match, but then we got lost –”
“You mean you got us lost,” Tobio mutters, glowering at him.
“– and separated from our team and that’s when we found Nigou.”
“Uh, shouldn’t you be trying to look for your teammates then?” Kagami asks.
“We would but our phones are out of battery. We couldn’t find anyone even though we’re supposed to meet them at Maji Burger,” Tobio replies.
“Do you want to use my phone?” Kuroko offers. “I don’t mind.”
“Ahh, yes please!” Hinata says, hopping to his feet. Kuroko digs into his pocket, pulling out a green flip phone that he passes to Hinata. “Thank you, Kuroko-san!”
“You can just call me Kuroko.”
“Thank you, Kuroko!”
Hinata begins to fiddle with the phone, babbling away once he finds someone who picks up. While he does, Kagami turns to Tobio to ask, “Do you play?”
“Play what?”
“Basketball.”
Tobio scoffs. “No. I play volleyball.”
Kagami hums. “I’ve never played. Ball is life.”
“You mean volleyball.”
“Nah, man, basketball.”
Tobio grunts, glaring away. There’s no point in arguing with a giant who inhales burgers like he does air. When Kagami stands up to toss away all his burger wrappers, Tobio takes in how tall he is, frowning at how it’s wasted on a sport like basketball. Kagami could make a pretty good middle blocker, he thinks.
“I talked to Suga-san!” Hinata announces, flipping Kuroko’s phone shut. “Captain and Takeda-sensei are on their way to pick us up!”
“Alright.”
Hinata passes the phone to Kuroko. “Thanks again for letting me use your phone! And for playing with Nigou!”
“It’s okay,” Kuroko replies, taking another sip. At the loud slurping noise that comes from the cup, it’s obvious he’s run out of whatever he was drinking. “Oh, I finished my shake.”
“Wanna get another one?” Kagami asks. “I could use another burger.”
He can eat even more? Tobio thinks. Hinata actually says something out loud though.
“Another burger?!” the middle blocker repeats. “Didn’t you eat, like, twenty just now?”
“Ten, actually,” Kagami clarifies, “but I can go for a few more.”
“I don’t know why you’re surprised,” Tobio says to Hinata. “You eat a lot too.”
“Hm, not as much as Noya-senpai or Daichi-san though.” Hinata considers something, tilting his head. “I don’t think I’ve ever eaten ten burgers at once either.”
“If you’re thinking about doing that right now,” Tobio warns, “I’m going to punch you in the face. Suga-san told us to save our money and we had lunch already.”
Hinata glares at him but doesn’t argue.
“It’ll be my treat,” Kagami offers. “I’d be surprised if you could actually eat as much as me, lil’ dude.”
Hinata growls. “Oi! I’m not little!”
Kagami barks out a laugh. “You’re shorter than Kuroko, bro, you’re definitely little.” Tobio chuckles at that, but then Kagami says, “And I bet you can’t eat as much as me.”
“You’re on then, Kagami!”
“No, you’re not!” Tobio yells.
“Kagami-kun, please stop challenging Hinata-san.”
Epilogue
Half an hour later, Daichi and Takeda make their way to Maji Burger to pick up Karasuno’s two idiot problem children. He can’t believe no one got a hold of neither Kageyama nor Hinata until Suga got a call from a random number. He hopes that they at least listened when Suga told them to stay at the burger joint.
He and sensei walk inside to find Kageyama yelling at Hinata, sitting in a booth with two boys he doesn’t know. Hinata is leaning back against his seat with his head pointed upwards, drool slipping from his lips. One of the boys Daichi doesn’t know (large, with red dark hair and weird eyebrows wearing a tracksuit) is in a similar position, rubbing his stomach while the other one (much smaller, with blue hair and equally blue eyes, also in the same tracksuit) admonishes him for apparently provoking Hinata.
“I told you not to do it, dumbass!”
“Kagami-kun, look what you’ve done: Hinata-san can’t move now.”
“Shut up, Kuroko, he’s the one that accepted the bet.”
Daichi doesn’t know what’s happened since he lost track of his teammates, but from what he’s gathering he’s going to make them regret ever accepting whatever petty bet Hinata just lost.
Takeda interrupts their bickering, and Daichi wonders how on earth he’s ever going to stop these two from getting into trouble.

I just realized where we are rn in HxH is about Aug 2001. So now I am wondering if Togashi will have a special event corralating to 9/11 and I'm worried.
let me preface this response by saying I’ve been in research paper spiral for the last four months due to my impending advancement in june, and your question provoked a knee-jerk reaction that led to a 4h-long research spiral by someone whose specialty is absolutely not japanese foreign policy and nationalism.
the tl;dr version here, and then the explanation for it under the cut: I don’t think that’s going to happen. for one, they’re currently on a boat headed to Big Murderous Landmass (unless kurapika and co sink the whale). they’re not in yorknew/nyc. also, japan’s perceptions of 9/11 and the media representations of it are not as pervasive as american or even broader western collective trauma. while togashi is unafraid to address contemporary social politics, I don’t think he’s going to correlate a particular event to 9/11. he’s more concerned with the failings and strengths of humanity, as a whole or in parts, and might reference particular events to get across a greater point, not draw direct parallels.
now, a cut, and then several hundred words on 9/11 as a moment of collective trauma, japanese militarism, and media perceptions. it is 4000% nerdier than this ask expected.
I don’t think togashi is going to include a 9/11 parallel in a large part because of how japanese media, and anime in particular, addresses japanese communal trauma, and how togashi uses moments and evocations of these in his stories (at least, yyh, and hxh, although level e has its own quirks). namely that japan really doesn’t deal with 9/11 like americans do–but they absolutely have other traumas that make their way into anime, manga, and other media.
the thing is that, while 9/11 is absolutely a moment of international trauma (I work in india, and people there are highly conscious of it), the moment that hit the US was very different in other parts of the world. I’m old enough to remember the whole “where were you on 9/11,” itself a sort of marker of solidarity and belonging within the trauma that kind of unites people around a time. the plane crashes were broadcast everywhere in the US, and no one didn’t see it. but we got it live, fed right to the tvs in our classrooms at 8am. and america didn’t get attacked by foreigners before, not like this–problems existed “out there,” not in nyc, for however many times it’s been destroyed on film. (we have our own homegrown terrorists, but that’s a whole other can of worms.) and when it did happen, the country as a whole kicked into a jingoist gear on top of the collective trauma of someone murdering a bunch of americans. freedom fries. they were a thing.
it’s probably important to note here that media doesn’t exist in a vacuum. we’re perpetually influenced by things that happen, whether they’re collective and historical memories, personal experience, or social trends. we get our references and jokes from somewhere, and they sink into our brains and affect what we put out into the world. trauma does this more effectively than most things. trauma elicits a search for meaning, whether it’s a question of “why did it happen” or “why did it happen to me/us?” sometimes we find a meaning in the disaster, and sometimes we don’t. but it marks us and connects us (Halbswach 1992, Updegraff et al 2009). and it affects us for a long, long time.
in japan (and again, I’m not an expert on this), 9/11 is a moment of international trauma that marks japan’s re-entering into the international military sphere, but also economic flux. of the approximately 3000 people killed in the twin towers attack, 316 were non-american, including 26 japanese nationals. japan joined the war coalition almost immediately, and spent billions of USD to support the “war on terror,” while also dealing with things like shohei koda’s beheading in 2004 or the kidnapping and release of 5 journalists and anti-war NGO workers the same year, which arrived back in japan only to be ostracized for “causing trouble” for japan, with accusations that they had “got what [they] deserved” (x, x). the effect on the news media in japan was of increasing conspiracy theories and warmongering, while simultaneously wary of tensions with china, north korea, and taiwan. basically, japan politically and militarily had a lot of pots on the fire, and was feeding yen to the american pot real fast. the japanese SDF pulled out of central asia in 2007, and it’s still a divisive subject from the papers I read, but it’s more about the military than 9/11. 9/11 is not, for example, the topic of a j-drama directly or indirectly. shohei imamura’s short film “japan” in the september 11 (2002) anthology is a parable set during world war ii, although he’s much more famous for his palme d’or wins and a film about hiroshima (black rain, 1989). and uh. apparently pokemon black and white has a reference to ground zero in their map of not!nyc?
japanese media’s collective trauma in anime is often the deep personal connection with the atomic bomb, or terror attacks and natural disasters on japanese soil. which makes sense: humans will generally latch onto things that affect us personally, whether it’s a cute puppy video shown to us or an act of terrorism we watch on television. for the US, we were–and still are–being forced to confront our place in the international community (hero, victim, villain, collaborator, all of it–and americans are not very good at shades of gray) through the “war on terror,” and it comes out in everything from comic book movies like bvs directly evoking 9/11 while cavill!supes ruins buildings to kill zod, to the rise of partisan tv news. but we don’t evoke nuclear war or radioactive waste with the same reaction that japan does–there’s a lot of fear of the bomb in the 1950s and 1960s, like with dr. strangelove and them!, but it’s centered less around the impact of the bomb and its literal or metaphorical nuclear fallout, and more on the fear of the other or an outsider destroying good ol’ american culture. or giving us superpowers. (personally, the closest I think american art and literature ever got to japanese sentiments is with a canticle for leibowitz, which focuses on the cyclical nature of human failure and how the past becomes changed through the present.)
(please read a canticle for leibowitz, it changed my life and only grows more potent with age.)
for japan, the dropping of atomic bombs on nagasaki and hiroshima provides a similar and long-lasting moment of national trauma that’s been preserved in public policy and popular culture. and it’s not just grave of the fireflies or barefoot gen, anime that address the bombings through direct reference. the bomb transforms into concerns about nuclear destruction and environmental fallout, with kaiju like godzilla rising from nuclear waste. osamu tezuka’s work like astro boy is in direct response to the abuse and use of technology and hope for humanity’s future, and naussica of the valley of the wind is a fantasy post-nuclear bomb situation blended with hayao miyazaki’s love of humanity and nature (x, x). I think it’s worth noting that both tezuka and miyazaki personally experienced the 1945 bombings. miyazaki was 4, and one of his earliest memories is fleeing utsunomiya’s bombings. tezuka, at 16 and working in arsenal factories during the fire bombing of osaka, later wrote kami no toride (1977) about his personal experience, which served as both autobiography and condemnation of the vietnam war.
of more recent stuff evoking trauma, naoki urasawa actually uses 9/11 as a moment in billy bat, as part of getting to questions of humanity and modernity and technology and progress. other anime dealing with terrorism, like GITS:SAC, the “brain scratch” episode of cowboy bebop, and of course urasawa’s 20th century boys, locate terrorism not through 9/11 (and the underlying racism and not-us-ness) but more often with these japanese cults like the ‘aum death cult that carried out the 1995 tokyo subway sarin attacks, and the changing landscape of terrorism in japan. we could point to shinichiro watanabe’s zankyou no terror (or terror in resonance? iunno) as a potential 9/11 parallel, and I think it’s got the 9/11 connections, but watanabe himself places it closer to the 1995 terrorist attacks. he even commented how much “darker” zankyou no terror is than the film he was influenced by (the man who stole the sun (1979)), directly citing the 1995 attacks as one reason the last 30 years have impacted japanese understandings of terrorism. more recently, there’s also been connections to the 3/11 disaster with kimi no na wa, where shinkai explores his perennial theme of personal connection across space and time via a form of natural disaster. outside of anime, there’s also a growing body of literature on 3/11 and music, which is super interesting and well worth a look if you’re interested.
fwiw, I think it’s interesting that both urasawa and watanabe are explicitly interested in western and specifically american culture, but through a japanese lens. and not the sort of “japanese lens” that leads to the americas of g gundam or yugioh, which are The Most American Ever, but a more nuanced representation that explores technology, human connection, and modernity. which is the sort of lens creators should try to do when engaging other cultures, at bare minimum. (/soapbox)
trauma isn’t often addressed directly, but allegorically or displaced: lindsay ellis has a great pair of loose canon episodes on 9/11 and how film evokes collective trauma. while she doesn’t talk about anime or japanese films, she uses bollywood as a way to talk about indirect expressions of nationalist trauma. in the second video, she suggests that, for countries like india working through their own terror attacks with mumbai in 2008 (the 26/11 attacks), it’s easier to use other countries’ or places’ or–I would suggest–fantastical trauma rather than directly address it. so bollywood used 9/11 to understand its own trauma. not everyone does this–and a lot of times, I doubt it’s done purposefully, at least initially. but it’s there implicitly, informing decisions of artists and content creators that sometimes doesn’t get revealed until placed under a critical eye. it’s why editing and getting outside or sensitivity readers is important! for japan, the parallels aren’t to other countries, but fantastical situations in japan with Very Heavy Symbolism ranging from akira’s totally-not-a-bombs to kimi no na wa’s processing of the 3/11 disaster via comet.
as for togashi, he uses world events and figures as ways of exploring his own interests (yu yu hakusho has multiple “wow capitalism suuuuuuuuucks” subplots with yukina’s arc and the dark tournament, plus the very anti-war/anti-hate/anti-capitalism/”humanity sucks but people [kuwabara] can be amazing” sentiments of the chapter black tape; while hxh’s chimera ant arc has both a-bomb parallels and north korea/china references on top of killua’s soapbox about how corrupt and terrible governments can be). the parallel between “humanity sucks” and “people can be so very good” threads throughout togashi’s work. but it also uses a very buddhist understanding of rebirth and reincarnation to get these points across, whether it’s the unconditional vore love of pouf and youpi giving themselves to rejuvenate mereum after he’s nuked or the reincarnations of former humans as ants. but all of it connects to togashi’s personal experiences of things happening to and by japan, whether it’s the invasion of and tension with taiwan, the boom and bust of the economy, or the militaristic push by parts of the government under koizumi and abe. that, layered on top of the trauma that informs a lot of japanese media, makes for a fascinating playground togashi is more than willing to dig into.
I suppose this is all a very, very long-winded way of saying that while it’s possible togashi could include a 9/11 parallel, I don’t think it’ll be tied to some september 2001 date in the hxh universe. if he uses it, it will be 1: through a togashi/japanese lens; 2: unattached to a particular date; 3: layered in dialogue with broader war and terror issues togashi’s interested in exploring.
if you’ve made it to the bottom: holy crap congrats, hello, talk to me about anthropology of media. and if you’re somehow still interested in more, here’s an brief list of sources I used on top of the ones explicitly referenced in the post:

So the purpose of this meme is to give a little info on your muses without having to rely on others to fill your ask with meme questions. I know how disappointing it can be to come back to an empty ask so I wanted to create a meme that anyone and everyone can do (mun and muse).
The rules are simple, you do not need to be tagged to fill out the questions, but once you have you must reblog and tag up to 12 of your followers to spread the love. You can fill it out as many times as your heart desires (we all know muses can change with their character development.)
tagged by — Zilch
After a long day of training, doing a couple of odd jobs here and there and overall just doing the most mundane things, she wanted to treat herself a little bit. The wildcat's been saving up, finally put all those gems to good use. Maybe commission that golden bike she's been wanting? Or buy some super expensive food for herself that nobody else gets to have? Or maybe--
Oh, is that Maria Notte?
"Carol Tea! Savior of Avalice for the second time! it is so great to have you here," she motions over to the camera crew to get closer, "The people want to know, they want the hard hitting questions answered that nobody's asked before! Are you free for a quick interview, for your undying fans?"
Her attention was caught almost immediately. She nodded excitedly, smiling from ear to ear. "Hell yeah! I'd love to answer some stuff for my fans. What'cha gonna ask about? My super strength? My super cool Jump Disc? My--"
She leans into the green cat and whispers, "Actually these questions pretty generic, Ms. Tea. We just wanted to do a quick interview for the ratings. You know how showbiz is."
She groaned audibly, face turning sour. The bat reporter quickly shushed her, but the cat waved it off. "Fine, fine, I'll do your dumb interview. Can't be that bad, right?"
"Great!" She perked up and took out a clipboard, "Alright, first question!"
1. WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE WORD?
Now didn't this sound familiar. Though, it's been awhile since she's been asked. She put a hand on her chin and thought for a moment, before coming to a natural conclusion, "Weed." She chuckled out, perplexed looks given off from the reporter and her crew. "What? It's funny!"
2. WHAT IS YOUR LEAST FAVORITE WORD?
“Oh, definitely words that have that slimey sound to it, y'know like moissssssst, or spliiiiiiiiit, or sliiiiiiiiiiiit," she exaggerates the pronunciation to an obnoxious degree, almost spitting as she speaks, much to the dismay of the reporter.
3. WHAT TURNS YOU ON?
She shrugs, "Iunno, I don't really have any turn ons. Give me food and scratch behind my ears and I might not steal from ya." She taps her chin for a moment, before her pupils shrink ever so slightly, "Hey, we can cut that out, right?"
4. WHAT TURNS YOU OFF?
"Like, probably anything I can get hurt by. I'm not a masochist, fire hurts." She shakes her head, remembering all the times she's had to go through literal flames in order to reach a destination. "Guess you could say I've been Through the Fire and Flames, huh?" She gave a very smug smirk to the bat reporter, who could only roll her eyes.
5. WHAT SOUND DO YOU LOVE?
"Y'know what's really nice in life?" There's a pause, before she continues, "It's the little stuff. Wind chimes on a breezy day, the ocean's waves crashing against some rocks. Stuff like that is nice, I like it a bunch."
Maria smiled warmly at the cat, nodding respectfully.
"Oh and also guitars. Electric ones. They're sick." Barely changed her expression.
6. WHAT SOUND DO YOU HATE?
"The screams of my friends and family." The reporter raised an eyebrow, pushing the microphone just a couple inches closer to her face. Carol rolled her eyes and kept silent.
7. WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE CURSE WORD?
"Foxtrot Sierra!" She said quite proudly, with a large smile on her face. This only succeeded in confusing the reporter and her crew.
8. WHAT PROFESSION OTHER THAN YOURS WOULD YOU LIKE TO ATTEMPT?
"Kinda been busy doin' a buncha stuff I've always wanted to do. Turns out you just gotta put yourself out there!" She smiles cheekily. "I think if my lifelong career of robot smashing didn't work out, I'd join my sis in being a pirate. Last resort though, wouldn't ever wanna be a pirate if my mechanic and Battlesphere gigs stopped workin' out."
9. WHAT PROFESSION WOULD YOU NOT LIKE TO DO?
“Anything to do with being a warlord or centurion bent on world destruction." She snickered, Maria did not share in this humor.
The wildcat stopped her chuckles awkwardly, crossing her arms, "Aaaanyway, Iunno. Those guys who serve me food or those guys who check out my groceries don't seem like they have fun with their jobs. Something like that, or any sort of office job." She makes a face, sticking her tongue out, "Gross! I need to move around at least a little."
10. IF HEAVEN EXISTS, WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO HEAR GOD(S) SAY WHEN YOU ARRIVE AT THE PEARLY GATES?
“God would be all like," she clears her throat and deepens her voice, " 'Carol, you're the awesomest wildcat around. You've done so much good for the world, here's a golden plated throne and golden plated bike to go along with it.' " She chuckles again, then sighs, "Really, it'd be nice getting praised from gods themselves about all the cool stuff I've done. Either that, or something dealing with my parents. It'd be nice if they greeted me instead of some gods." She shrugs.
Bonus Questions
1. SOMETHING MOST PEOPLE DON’T KNOW ABOUT YOU?
"I'm actually a pretty good swimmer! Yeah, most people would think," she puts on a deep voice again, " 'oh you wouldn't like water, you're a cat' or whatever. But nah, the Scarves taught me all sorts of basic stuff like swimming, fighting, running on water. Swimming is the one I got a big talent in!”
She looks off to the side, sheepishly, “Maybe not as good as the water dragons, but it's still pretty good for a wildcat!"
2. SEXUAL PREFERENCE?
”Both." She smiled, showing her teeth.
3. WHAT POSITION DO YOU SLEEP IN?
“Any, dude. I flop on my bed and start sleepin'! It's the easiest way."
4. WHAT IF SOMEONE TOLD YOU…YOU HAD TO LOSE, JUST THIS ONE TIME?
She shrugged, "I've lost a lot, it's not as bad as you'd think. Just get back up and try again." She nods to herself.
5. GREATEST FEAR?
"Losing someone close to you," she looks off to the side, crossing her arms, "If I ever found out Cory or Lilac died, iunno what I'd do. I'm glad most of my friends can take care of themselves, but sometimes I worry." She tightened her fists, near death experiences of those close to her flashing in her mind. She shook her head soon after.
6. IF YOU COULD LEAVE ONE THING TO BE REMEMBERED BY, WHAT WOULD IT BE?
“I've saved Avalice twice, I think that's a pretty good thing to remember! I don't need much else--even this Battlesphere gig is small fries compared to that!"
7. WHAT’S YOUR MIDDLE NAME?
”Don't got one. Two names is enough!" A smirk.

ArcherM-Last Tuesday at 1:53 PM
14 and 15 you'll have to do via RT or YT
Magical Girl Zunko-Last Tuesday at 1:54 PM
I would recommend doing them through YouTube. Playlists are nice
PheNoamenon-Last Tuesday at 1:54 PM
One playlist I found had s1 mwsswd up, I think it was RT's, so make sure
Amazeanya the loved-Last Tuesday at 1:55 PM
Hmm, yeah, it does seem like the playlist is a bit screwy, so I'll just use the standard video-jumping feature.
Magical Girl Zunko-Last Tuesday at 1:56 PM
Or use Netflix
Amazeanya the loved-Last Tuesday at 1:56 PM
I'll use Netflix later!
When I'm at like, my grandparents or something.
Magical Girl Zunko-Last Tuesday at 1:56 PM
...? Why not now?
Amazeanya the loved-Last Tuesday at 1:57 PM
Because I am lazy and I don't want to drag out my iPad or ask my mom what the netflix account password is... actually, you know, might as well just pull out the ipad
holy shit
I think someone in my family's watched it
It has nearly full watch-bars for seasons 1-4
Magical Girl Zunko-Last Tuesday at 1:58 PM
I mean
It’s a popular show
Amazeanya the loved-Last Tuesday at 1:59 PM
true
Amazeanya the loved-Last Tuesday at 2:05 PM
screw it, back to youtube, that's easier to handle, and they at least tell me who's speaking
ArcherM-Last Tuesday at 2:07 PM
Captions tho
But understandable
Amazeanya the loved-Last Tuesday at 2:07 PM
My captions don't say who's speaking, for unknowable reason
so... back to the one with good subtitles!
ArcherM-Last Tuesday at 2:08 PM
Enjoy-
Amazeanya the loved-Last Tuesday at 2:09 PM
I will!
dammit, Donut, that's
that's not remotely anything like a fucking store
omg
it's like
i'm seeing all the pieces to disaster line up in front of my eyes and
i am loving every second of it?
and thus a capture the flag war is won.
how the hell do they manage to create a coherent storyline with callbacks and brick jokes in the form of like, a few episodes that don't go longer than 5 minutes?
Episode 8 and I'm worried for some reason
oh shit
oh shit
oh no oh shit
fucking tanks
this is going to end... badly
oh fuck
what the fuck?
You do not do this to me this fucking early in the show, dammit
Why
what the
fuck
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
I
um
is he dead?!
holy fucking
holy fuCKING(edited)
I
WOW
somehow I have more reactions to this than I did to RWBY
I have no idea why, I just do
Amazeanya the loved-Last Tuesday at 3:04 PM
omg
I just
is he dead, tho?
Damntastic Despair-Last Tuesday at 3:04 PM
Keep watching
Amazeanya the loved-Last Tuesday at 3:04 PM
I am
Oh, hey, Sarge. Been wondering where the fuck you were.
omfg
Goodbye, stupid-ass tank that killed Church. No-one will mourn you.
Damntastic Despair-Last Tuesday at 3:06 PM
Poor Sheila
Amazeanya the loved-Last Tuesday at 3:07 PM
Sheila's a tank tho? One that fucking... killed Church? I mean. Why mourn the tank?
Damntastic Despair-Last Tuesday at 3:08 PM
Also, they don’t show up in the playlist, but you should watch the miniseries. I think that the first one takes place concurrently with season 4, but I could be wrong
Amazeanya the loved-Last Tuesday at 3:09 PM
Hmmm, so, when I reach season 4, hunt down the miniseries, got it.(edited)
...okay what the fuck
okay, what the FUCK
okay, I'll... accept this as a thing that I am seeing and hearing.
So... okay then.
Trying to rationalize this will just lead me down the path of madness so...
okay then
who the fuck is this "Tex"? And why is a warning needed?
Church, get to the point plz
okay then, that was mildly horrifying and completely impossible.
A PERSON WOULD BE DEAD THE SECOND THEIR SKULL WAS RIPPED OUT
THA-IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE!
tucker, no
tucker, you could've, iunno, listened to your dead friend?
wait what
no
don't
TEX, THE FUCK?!
I GET YOU'RE A MERCENARY AND ALL BUT
DAMMIT
DON'T
Damntastic Despair-Last Tuesday at 3:26 PM
Miniseries guide: Out of Mind and Recovery One should be watched after Season 4 but before Reconstruction (Season 6) Relocated should be watched after Reconstruction MIA and Where There's A Will, There's A Wall I would recommend watching some point after Season 9
and I don't think any of the others are canon, so they're more 'watch for fun' along with the PSAs
Amazeanya the loved-Last Tuesday at 3:26 PM
gotcha
best bubbles-Last Tuesday at 3:27 PM
Anya, you watching Red Vs Blue?
Amazeanya the loved-Last Tuesday at 3:27 PM
yes
Currently on Season 1, episode 11
best bubbles-Last Tuesday at 3:27 PM

Well...
Amazeanya the loved-Last Tuesday at 3:34 PM
Oh that bodes fucking well
Boi-Last Tuesday at 3:35 PM
I think I'll pass on ever watching RvB if this is the reaction to the first season.
Amazeanya the loved-Last Tuesday at 3:35 PM
lol
you probably should pass
Boi-Last Tuesday at 3:35 PM

wow
the things one does for love, it seems
I mean, I'm all for the Red Team not dying.
you know. Donut could've been given any other type of armor, but noooo
the guys at red command just had to go with pink

Did they just get a different thing to film these with in between seasons
or does Church look less ghosty now

Oh, look, an April Fools' day episode!
you can tell by the fact that this episode isn't remastered
what the fuck
i
is this
lmfao
This is fucking wonderful
oky, back to the actual show
at this point, I'm starting to doubt that.
WHY THE FUCK IS DONUT RIGHT ABOUT ALL OF THIS?
I MEAN
ALL OF HIS THEORY WAS
ENTIRELY FUCKING TRUE
OMG

um
I shouldn't be confused by this, I think I've passed the point where I can actually call myself confused but...
nope, I'm just
speechless

TEX?!
I mean. You should probably just roll with it, Sheila. It's not going to get saner.
good. DESTROY THAT FUCKING AI
Or you could get an "Engineering and Mechanics for Dummies"
Just saying that
guidebooks could help
Well, at least Donut's accepted the truth of his armor's color by now. That's something?
Hey, Tucker... you mind letting whatever the goddamn hell is happening in there... happen. You go make sure that the Reds shut down their AI Helmet things
...you've gotta be freaking kidding me.

it's weird to think about because

stay past

Well, that was resolved easily

On to Season 4
*insert link to the rules of Grifball here*
I should be focusing on the episode right now
eh
well, Donut, you guys are probably still in the "future", if such a state of time even exists, but there is the possibility that coming back to Blood Gulch somehow brought you guys into the past and
I shouldn't even be treating this as a rational possibility, this way madness lies

i want to know
I can't believe everyone just. Finds Blood Gulch so easily

Damntastic Despair-Yesterday at 7:12 PM
You still got this!
Amazeanya the loved-Yesterday at 7:16 PM
oh god
the blues are about to be attacked, I just know it
OH GOD
RED TEAM, GET THE FUCK OUT OF THERE AND TELL BLUE TEAM WHAT THE FUCK GRIF HEARD
PLEASE
oh
it's Andy, and Lopez, probably... and someone else
but... who's the someone else?
So, not Lopez, an alien... who looks to be the same species as Crunchbite was...
oh shittttttttt
I'm starting to get an idea.
Damntastic Despair-Yesterday at 7:28 PM
you know, I'm surprised you didn't comment on Tucker's pregnancy at all
Amazeanya the loved-Yesterday at 7:33 PM
I did
somewhere up there in the confusion
yep, it's about when I start laughing mad
onto 93!
York? Who's that?
So...
Who the fuck is Carolina and why is she already dead.
how the fuck it's been 900 years?!
There should be like more signs of things having changed
What?
Why the phone call?
wait... I have a weird idea that's probably wrong but
let's see
shitttttttttt
also, yep
idea was right
what
Wyoming's alive, that's fucking greattttt
But he and Gary--er, Gamma are working together. I fucking liked Gar--Gamma
Something's off
Something bad's gonna happen
Because there's no real reason for a guy that's clearly playing both sides to tell one side to straoght up murder the other, unless something's up
At least said other side is currently underground
Aw shit
...what the shit
Where has Red Team found themselves?
Why does it seem like a security room for a mall or something?!
Why is someone spying on both teams...
Something's definitely wrong about all of this
The lack of distance between wherever the fuck they were for the climax of Season 3 and Blood Gulch... the fact that people seem to be still alive, 8 to 900 years in the future...
THE FACT THAT NOTHING OF GODAMN INTEREST BESIDES THESE IDIOTS FUCKING AROUND HAS HAPPENED FOR 5 SEASONS
well, i mean
that's exxagerating
I was feeling sad, now I'm laughing a little bit
The world ends (again). For real this time. All episodes after this one are prequels.
that's what it says
what the fuck
I...
I'm worried now
omg

Episode 100
"Why Were We Here?"

why do all the plans begin with Grif abuse?

OH MY GOD
YELLOW CHURCH

EVERYONE ELSE DID
THEIR VOICES CHANGED AND EVERYTHING
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

And now
Onto Recovery One and then reconstruction
Amazeanya the loved-Yesterday at 9:23 PM
Hey, I'll do the miniseries stuff tomorrow
Damntastic Despair-Yesterday at 9:25 PM
Out of Mind THEN Recovery One
Amazeanya the loved-Yesterday at 9:25 PM
Mmhmm! Gotcha!
Damntastic Despair-Yesterday at 9:25 PM
also
#rooster_teeth_chat is now open
1/26/18
Amazeanya the loved-Yesterday at 11:22 AM
Okay then, I have enough time to watch Out of Mind before I must leave!
...At least, I'm assuming this is where I go to react to the RvB stuff while I binge.
Eh, I'll just start and react anyways
So then, from what's... blatantly obvious, this takes place probably directly in between Season 4 and Season 5 and follows Tex as she tracks Wyoming.
This'll be fun!
hmmm
first off: fuck you, O'Malley.
There, I am now content with the world again
Holy shit, a flashback!
Holy shit, Church!
Well, Church but in the past
Still Church!
Dammit Wyoming, you fuck
Just
let them talk, at least
angery sigh
pffffffft. I like York.
I am feeling sad for characters that I knew for 5 minutes, at most. And their deaths were fucking... foretold. But eh. Still feel sad.
And that is the end of Out of Mind!
I was expecting it to be longer, but eh.
It was still awesome!
Damntastic Despair-Yesterday at 3:38 PM
Yeah, the miniseries are short
And York was cool
*insert posting Episode 100 alternate ends here*
Amazeanya the loved-Yesterday at 4:30 PM
Basically: all the alternate endings are their own flavor of good
Now, on to Recovery One!
...wha?
We're back at... back at here again.
Good thing I watched Out of Mind beforehand, so I know where here is
I have no idea who this person is, but I love them.
Agent... Washington, then. Is he... part of the Freelancer project, too?
Hmmm
best bubbles-Yesterday at 4:41 PM
They do love their state codenames
Amazeanya the loved-Yesterday at 4:41 PM
they really do
But, if that's so, I really doubt that any time bullshit was involved.
At least, they can't have been sent into the future
Something's off about this whole thing.
Somehow, I know we're gonna find out what
oh
oh wow.
oh shit
Something's stealing the Freelancer AIs and enhancements.
Well, someone, more likely.
But who?
woah my god
This is going to be wild
CAN WE STOP WITH THE TUTORIAL PROGRAMS?!

Oh

WHAT THE FUCK?!
HOLY SHIT
I COULDN'T HAVE SEEN THAT ONE COMING
That was
AMAZING
Now... it's on to Season 6
It begins with a quote that's supposed to sound important, but now all I can think of is the Sharkboy and Lavagirl review that NC did
dammit
Focus, me, FOCUS
I am already confused
Back to normal for me, I guess
best bubbles-Yesterday at 5:07 PM
Reconstruction
Amazeanya the loved-Yesterday at 5:08 PM
yeah, I know, it's still confusing tho
best bubbles-Yesterday at 5:08 PM
No I mean
Amazeanya the loved-Yesterday at 5:08 PM
At least we have confirmation that Outpost Alpha isn't the only outpost, though.
best bubbles-Yesterday at 5:08 PM
This is a great season
Damntastic Despair-Yesterday at 5:09 PM
This season is where RvB makes the jump from good to great
Amazeanya the loved-Yesterday at 5:09 PM
Really?
Well, that's awesome
best bubbles-Yesterday at 5:10 PM
Yep
Amazeanya the loved-Yesterday at 5:12 PM
WAIT
WASH IS ALIVE
HOLY FUCK
I hate this "Councilor" person already.
...META ...?
Hmmm
great
a new villain of the arc
and it sounds like it's gotten O'Mall---sorry, Omega, on its side.
Experts? No, no, they're not experts. Trust me.
ohhh
here we fucking go
And we're back to an all too familiar location
Woooo?
what
WHAT
TRANSFERRED?!
OH SHIT
Please, oh, please, if the same thing's happened to the Reds... but it will have, won't it?!
UGH
AAAAAAAA
WTF
oh god
they're all transferred, too
Or not
Hi Sarge!
And hi Lopez!
Oh thank fuck! We have a lead on where the rest of Blue Team may be... and probably where the rest of Red is too
...
also, Sister was hilarious in this episode, just thought I'd say that
Damntastic Despair-Yesterday at 5:30 PM
Sister is hilarious in every episode
Amazeanya the loved-Yesterday at 5:30 PM
true
dammit, Caboose
best bubbles-Yesterday at 5:34 PM
The funiest part is that they wrote in a ton of obscene lines for her voice actress as a joke
Amazeanya the loved-Yesterday at 5:34 PM
Sorry, Wash, you had no idea what you were getting yourself into.
best bubbles-Yesterday at 5:34 PM
And she read them all
Amazeanya the loved-Yesterday at 5:34 PM
omg
Only person?
Nah
If you want the knowledge and the experience needed, just
just go get the rest of the Blood Gulch crew.
...please?
I love them and I don't want to lose them
OMG THEY HAVE ACTUAL STINGERS NO--oh no
oh no
WHO WAS THAT?!
Oh thank fuck.
Hi Church!
It's been... over a year?!
holy fuck
what the fuck
Oh, gee, Wash, you haven't even met most of them.
It just gets weirder from here.
oh
no(edited)
NOPE
I know that effect
lol
there's where the TVTropes quote at the top of the page comes from!
...
wait

Simulation?
Fake?
back the fuck up and explain
fucking hell.

Yep
Amazeanya the loved-Yesterday at 5:50 PM

All the signs were starting to point towards it, but
NO REAL EXPLANATION?!
SO WE'RE PROBABLY GOING TO HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL EVERYONE'S AT BLOOD GULCH AGAIN FOR ANY ANSWERS
JOY
huh? South? Delta?
What are you two doing here?
Amazeanya the loved-Yesterday at 6:03 PM
Dammit, South, what bullshit did you get yourself into?
Okay, so, she got her enhancement back, or, more likely, she never lost it.
shit, if META has the whole time-loop-causing thing...
We're gonna need Tucker. ASAP
...what?
That... that was weird

It was the worst throw ever

Damn... 3 minds in one body? God, that would be so... so shitty
IT'S THEM

Lopez is fucking wonderful
guys... what the hell did you two do?!
no
lmfao
Who
Who thought it was a good idea to put Grif in charge?!
that was fucking insane and I expected no less.
Amazeanya the loved-Yesterday at 7:15 PM
Okay then, we're back/
Church. Church, just. Stop, please. For as long as it takes for everyone to get on the same page.
Then you can fuck around with the voice amplifier.
WHY
THAT IS A HORRIBLE CODE WORD
oh shit, there's Meta
Amazeanya the loved-Yesterday at 8:06 PM
mix of crying and laughing
why
why are we here again
pfffffft
Now we get exposition time... but this time it's explaining shit we were there for!
...I don't know how I'd explain it, tbh
Wait, what? No other place would get the robot kit... something's off
I want explanations.
Now.
I feel
so bad for Wash right now.
I would be fed up too/
But sadly, I've spent too much time around these nutjobs. I know this is how they work.
...Testing grounds?
holy... holy fuck.
that makes... I think that makes some form of sense.
best bubbles-Yesterday at 8:18 PM
Now you know why they were there
Amazeanya the loved-Yesterday at 8:18 PM
...glares
But... why, though?
Sure, it makes sense, because nothing ever happened there, but
Why?
And... I really don't get what the fuck was up with the so-called "time-travel"
Because there is no
fucking
way that can be any form of truth
What... what's the significance of "Memory is the key"?
best bubbles-Yesterday at 8:20 PM
Well, who do we know who had a time-manipulation abilities?
Amazeanya the loved-Yesterday at 8:20 PM
Wyo---oh.
Oh, yeah...
But, on another note, we're still missing two people. Tucker and Donut. Neither of them have shown up for... 12 episodes now, and I'm getting worried about them.
So... we'll need the Alpha AI. And that will bring us to Command. ...okay, sure.
But we're still missing two people, and I'm really worried about them.
Church... I can understand why but
can you please not
pffffffffffffffffffffffft
The old possession trick makes its return!
pfffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffthahahahaha
of course

jesus fucking christ how bored are those people?!
...what
WASH, WHY ARE WE BRINGING OUT EPSILON?!
WHY?
Also, we're still fucking missing two people
oh my god
they... they tortured the Alpha AI?! That...
That's horrible.
I don't know why, but something about that... it's making me angry?
Yeah, very angry
And what's up with the memories that Church's getting?!
oh no. Meta's here.
I can tell
oh.
oh wow.
the foreshadowing was there.
ha ha ha
Damntastic Despair-Yesterday at 9:00 PM
you got to the big reveal?
Amazeanya the loved-Yesterday at 9:00 PM
The one that Alpha AI was tortured to create all the others? Yes.
And apparently it's been moved, too, which is... wonderful
Damntastic Despair-Yesterday at 9:01 PM
yeah, Project Freelancer was messed up
Amazeanya the loved-Yesterday at 9:02 PM
OH

OH GOD
SHIT
...I know that voice. I think.
... C.T, according to the subtitles... I feel like I know who this is.
...we all know Caboose isn't dead. This is just fucking... setting up a punchline. And usually, killing off main characters is reserved fro the last episode of a season. And there's still 10 more episodes to go.
yep, he's fine
hmmm, maybe not, then. In person, the voice is definitely... different.
...kinda
Maybe
not really
I don't think you want to know, person who probably isn't Tucker.
heh?
HEH?!
WTF
um, I don't think Epsilon really counts as equipment.
Okay, now the subtitles for when probably not Tucker is speaking have changed to ???
I...
Hmmmmmmmm
well. This just makes everything more... life-threatening
It's the latter. They're all fucking idiots.

Seems the door's been busted.
pffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffft
i mean, I'm not exactly surprised by this anymore
so
the meta could have cloaked any sort of vehicle
It went for a warthog.
Why?
LMFAO
DAMMIT, TUCKER!
THAT SEEMED LIKE IT WAS GONNA BE COOL
BUT NOPE
On to the last episode of the season!
pffffffffffft
maybe you should've taken the driving lessons
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 12:00 PM
HOLY FUCK!
THAT WAS AWESOME!
oh fuck
no
NO
WASHINGTON, WHAT
THE
FUCK
HOW
DARE
YOU
YOU MAY HAVE KILLED THEM BOTH
THAT
I
WHAT THE EVERLASTING FUCK

and that
THAT'S HOW IT ENDS?!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
FUCKING HELL, NOW I HAVE TO START SEASON 8
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
okay then, I am calmed down, so... here we go, Season 8 time.
Holy shit, Doc!
I haven't seen you in forever!
holy fuck
holy fuck
ohhhhhhhhhhhh
fuck
We got an unidentified... person, over here!
Blackish or gray armor... might be a freelancer.
wha
what
WHAT?!(edited)
so... the plot thickens
yay
wait... the armor... was kinda familiar, I think?
Lemme rewatch
holy shit, paused to get a freeze-frame and... I think I know whose armor that is
on to episode 2!
hmmm, now I'm curious.
hmmm, now I'm curious.
Oh my god, Sarge could tell everything that's gone wrong?! In a few seconds?! HOLY FUCK, THAT'S AWESOME
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 1:00 PM
WAHAHAHA
THAT WAS AWESOME!
or what?
Oh, look, it seems Red's gotten here! Nice but also o fuck.
how the fuck did they get there so fast, anyways?
um, Chandy...
I think you posted in the wrong area
This is...
this is the Rooster Teeth Chat
Xtremely cool Chandishishi~-Today at 1:21 PM
.....
SHI-
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 1:21 PM
lol
Xtremely cool Chandishishi~-Today at 1:21 PM
Whatever are you talking about
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 1:21 PM
dammit, I didn't get to preserve it for posterity's sake!
you know, if this is played right... we could be able to sic the aliens on the Meta and Washington. We just need to make sure no-one fucks up immensel--why am I even telling myself this?
Shit's gonna get fucked up anyways.
best I don't hope.
hey, Epsilon-Church? Did you have to follow the Reds? You could've... told the others what you heard, then followed them!
DAMMIT, GRIF!
JESUS FUCKING CHRIST, YOU DON'T THINK YOU COULDA REMEMBERED THAT A FEW SECONDS EARLIER?!
And holy fuck, this fight scene looks awesome
best bubbles-Today at 1:29 PM
Gotta love that mocap
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 1:29 PM
THAT WAS FUCKING AMAZING
IT ONLY LASTED A FEW SECONDS BUT
THAT WAS ONE OF THE BEST ACTION SCENES SO FAR!
okay, I'm not sure how I feel about this episode title
"Recovering One"
really?
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 2:20 PM
okay then, time to start watching again.
oh, dammit. I forgot Epsilon-Church was following.
You can clearly tell the exact moment the animation changes from Halo graphics to
WOAH, WHY DOES THIS LOOK GOOD?!(edited)
aka computer-animated
Dammit, Epsilon-Church...
but seriously though, the computer-animated sequence was fucking amazing
no, don't
please, don't
HOLY MOTHER OF FUCK, WOW
meanwhile, the name of the next episode makes me want to make a 4/20 joke
omg
oh no
of course he landed in between a bunch of fucking landmines.
pffffffffft
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 3:00 PM
okay, then, onwards to episode 5!
err
6
oops
oh
oh god
...
holy fuck
I just... sigh
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 4:15 PM
ahem
on to episode 7, now!
pfffffffffffffffffffft
of course that's how they don't die.
I mean, it makes sense but
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 5:24 PM
I keep taking too long in between episode
oh well
NO
NO TUTORIAL PROGRAMS
THEY KILL
dammittt
But... this facility... was for the freelancer program?
Huh
A bunker?
Huh.
All of the stuff for the training simulations for the freelancers, I see...
wait, wait, hold the fuck up. There's regulation colored helmets here. This... that's fucking suspicious.
...gumball mcjones
pffffffffffffffffft
omg
I mean. The state name idea seems about fucking right
seriously, the freelancer project couldn't have thought of... anything better?
get blown up, get blown up, there's like
a million landmines here, get blown the fuck up
............what?
That random fucking person... wait a minute... CT... isn't that the abbreviation for Connecticut? ...that's seriously how you spell connecticut?
wow
who knew
wha? Epsilon-Church, what are you looking for?
pffffffffffffffffffft
I wonder why they hadn't thought of that at first
It woulda saved some trouble
pffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffft
...one of those translator balls?
I can't believe the callbacks here
omg
So it turns out Shisno is a real insult!
TEX?!
OH MY GOD
OH MY GODD
HOLY FUCK
Also, the CGI there for the reveal was... pretty damn awesome, gonna be blunt
Damntastic Despair-Today at 6:00 PM
The CGI only gets better
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 6:00 PM
Wooo, that's nice to hear!(edited)
shut up, FILSS, it would not be wonderful if they die.
IT WOULD BE FUCKING HORRIBLE
OH MY GOD, YAY FOR MORE CGI AND OH SHIT
OH MY GOD
OH MY FUCKING GOD, THAT WAS AWESOME
GUYS, DO NOT ATTACK TUCKER! HE JUST HAS THE MISFORTUNE OF BEING SUBJECT OF THIS PARTICULAR RUNNING GAG
OH MY GOD!
OH MY GOD
HOLY FUCK
THAT EPISODE
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
That was, without a doubt, the best fight scene I've seen so far. Or, at least, the coolest-looking.
And oh my god
That ending shot
OH MY GOD
1/31/18
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 4:12 PM
SO
On to episode 11!
Well, I mean, this is like. The one context it is physically possible.
...I wonder what consequences this is gonna have
ohhhh, who knew
Washington, by all means, I should be angry with you. You killed Donut and Lopez! But... you just get so many fucking good lines, and I can kinda understand your anger and
ugh
you're fucking kidding me. So medics get overtime. Who knew?
I mean, I can understand exactly why Doc doesn't want to go in a cave, last time he was, Omega jumped to him, after all.
so... this is what it's like when an AI's operator gets knocked out/murdered. Neat.
no, really, why did you two bring Doc?
I know you had a reason but
I can't remember either!
best bubbles-Today at 4:28 PM
Wash is one of my favorite characters
He's really well-written
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 4:29 PM
Yeah, he is
Ohhhhh, hi there previous Epsilon-body.
Shame you're completely irrelevant right now because... well, reasons.
I do! I want to know! Granted, I think I can figure it our via context clues but
I still wanna know!
I mean. It's pretty impossible to track... anything in the desert.
it's a fucking desert. I presume the winds have been moving sand around and concealing tracks and shit every fucking minute.
ah, good old fashioned blackmail
oh my fucking god, the heat signature thing worked
...that'd be Lima Syndrom, for like, the inverse of Stolkholm Syndrome, right?
best bubbles-Today at 4:50 PM
Yep
Where captors develop positive feelings for their captives
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 4:53 PM
...I'm not surprised that Church isn't on the Psych Eval list. But Tex? Wait... oh. Oh, wait a fucking minute. She's an AI too, isn't she?
I am genuinely curious about the Director's journal. I want to see what the entries are.
hmm... a byproduct? I have a stupid-ass theory. that I already know the truth of because I may have read TVTropes on this a little while back
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 5:00 PM
lmao
why
no slacker should have invisibility powers
this is like
the biggest recipe for disaster... ever.
what
so, the vision things weren't about Valhalla... but this place?
what
Oh god.
It's like everywhere I turn, the Freelancer project just gets more fucked up.
But, I have to say, props to Tex for leading the break-in and a rescue mission.
oh... damn
i just
damn
dammit
We gave Grif super speed
Holy fucking
lmao
this was a horrible idea
...okay, I think the super-speed thing's off.
episode 17 description: "Simmons has the Blue Army data restored, while Grif and Simmons find out important information about the Red and Blue bases."
Important information, oh gee, I wonder what that means besides probably what we were told 2 seasons ago.
my god. No way to deny it all being a simulation now.
The whole time-travel bullshit was Scenario 3.
oh...
oh, damn.
damn...
Tex, no. NO
This is a bad plan.
I've only heard two sentences of it, but
very
bad
plan
best bubbles-Today at 5:42 PM
It's not a plan
But it's a perfect plan
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 5:42 PM
TEX, WHAT THE FUCK
DAMMIT, LADY
angery noises because fucking hell, lady
And now we've got even more trouble a-coming
JOY OF JOYS
Well, at least the crew back at the old freelancer base have received the alarm for Epsilon being hurt.'
That speech.
That speech was fucking amazing.
I'm fucking inspired by it.
And I mean, it began with a call-back then grew into something so... so awesomer.
best bubbles-Today at 5:51 PM
Oh, Sarge's speech?
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 5:51 PM
YEAH
best bubbles-Today at 5:51 PM
That is one of my favorite moments in the entire series
Damntastic Despair-Today at 5:51 PM
Sarge's speech is the third best speech in the show
Church claims both of the other two, which you'll see in future seasons
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 5:57 PM
...what is Grif going to drive, anyways?
Hmm, guess I'll find out
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 6:01 PM
dammit, Doc!
My thoughts exactly, Wash.
Damntastic Despair-Today at 6:03 PM
Anya, once you finish season 10 I have an au idea to share with you
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 6:03 PM
OH FUCK, TEX
OH FUCK
Also, as soon as I finish Season 10, I will be happy to hear the idea.
Damntastic Despair-Today at 6:04 PM
Fuck Tex? I bet church says that a lot
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 6:04 PM
V...
whyyyyyy
lol
but
pffffffffffft
nope, can't help but laugh
Dammit, Meta's gone rogue to... very little surprise, honestly.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
YESSSSS
WOHOOOO
oh boy
This is gonna be a rough landing
omg
That line... fucking perfect
Cavalry's arrived in all their... how the fuck are they not dead yet glory.
Oh my god... oh wow.
That... that's horrible. Tex... all the versions of her... at the end of the day, they're like: The living version of eventual failure.
Oh my god.
oh fuck
best bubbles-Today at 6:11 PM
Based on a memory of someone who failed
Always destined to fail
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 6:12 PM
And now I'm almost at the end of Season 8
One more episode to go
DAMMIT, GRIF
DON'T YOU REMEMBER THE FUCKING
CODE WORD
No
NO
NO, NONONONO
GRIF
oh thank god, he's alive
Epsilon... please, don't.
EPSILON, NO
AND... OH FUCK, WASH
BUT ALSO
OH FUCK
JUST... OH FUCK IN GENERAL
no
epsilon... what have you done?
I... I can't believe it.
Wash... I
wow.
wait, no.
He just took Church's armor and put yellow guards and shit on it.
Epsilon... good luck on your journey to find her.
And... I'm glad to see Blood Gulch again, even if it's not the one I called home for an entire 5 seasons.
Oh my god.
That... those were some of the good memories. ...I can see why.
And... I finished Season 8
I finished the Recollection saga.
best bubbles-Today at 6:26 PM
You know a lot of people have said that season 8 felt like it would've been a good way to end the series if they wanted
And I agree
But I'm also glad they kept going
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 6:27 PM
I am too. It gives me more shit to watch.
Yay bingeing...
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 8:07 PM
screw it, if I just focus on binging the next few days, I'll be able to fit in Season 9.
Let's go!
Oh, Epsilon, we know already. It's oky, buddy.
pffffffffhahaha
Oh, poor, poor Epsilon.
wait, what
So that's why it's called the Project Freelancer arc. WAIT A FUCKING MINUTE
I JUST
I SAW SOME FAMILIAR FUCKING CODE NAMES ON THAT BOARD OVER THERE
So, I'm guessing half of Season 9 will be spent in not-Blood Gulch, while the other half will be in the past, and 100% of the time, I'm wondering what the hell the actual Blood Gulch crew is doing?
OH MY GOD
SOUTH?!
NORTH?!
...it's nice to hear your voice, North Dakota, first time I saw you, you were... you were a corpse.
...Charon Industries, huh? I'll remember that name, it seems important.
oh, shit, they're surrounded.
I am completely unconcerned for them.
Because... I know they'll both live through it.
BUT DAMN WAS THAT ACTION COOL
That.
Was.
Awesome.
And noooooo
I don't want to leave the past...
Send me back to the cool...
Damntastic Despair-Today at 8:32 PM
Recognise the singer for the music?
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 8:33 PM
...should I have?
Wait... was that Casey Lee Williams?
ALSO, YAY, BACK IN THE PAST!
Damntastic Despair-Today at 8:33 PM
Yup
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 8:33 PM
So... she's Agent Carolina, huh?
Damntastic Despair-Today at 8:34 PM
Shares a VA with Pyrrha
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 8:34 PM
.......
WHAT
Damntastic Despair-Today at 8:35 PM
Wash also shares a VA with Ozpi n
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 8:35 PM
...
...................................
WHAT THE FUCK
YOU REALLY WAITED THAT LONG TO TELL ME THAT?!
HOLY FUCK
WHAT THE
Damntastic Despair-Today at 8:36 PM
RT has some serious talent under their belt
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 8:36 PM
No shitting
what the fuck
SOMEONE--NORTH, IN FACT--- TOOK OFF HIS HELMET
THIS IS LIKE, THE FIRST OR SECOND FACE I'VE SEEN IN THE ENTIRE SERIES
I FORGOT HOW IT FEELS TO SEE A FACE AND NOT A HELMET
HOLY SHIT
Damntastic Despair-Today at 8:39 PM
I love the past segments in 9 and 10
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 8:39 PM
oh
my
god
that was... that was stunning
Mother of Invention, huh?
NO!
I
WHY
I LIKE THE PAST
REALLY, I FIND THE EPSILON GULCH SEGMENTS FUNNY BUT
THAT'S ABOUT IT
also mildly horrifying because everything's fucking not right with Epsilon-Gulch Red Team but
Damntastic Despair-Today at 8:42 PM
The freelancer arcs in this season are argyably more entertaining than the scenes in epsilon
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 8:42 PM
...arguably? More like probably.
I mean, at least Blue's accurate
Well... this speeds things up slightly. And no casualties yet!
...hopefully
i'm dying inside
I just
Dying
Inside
...I just fucking realized what's going on. Epsilon-Simmons took what Epsilon said to heart. I... I'm proud of him.
...actually, wait
Damntastic Despair-Today at 8:49 PM
I cannot wait until you get to the scene that has one of my favourite musical numbers in the season
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 8:49 PM
hmmm
I'll keep that in mind.
Oh thank god, they're going back to normal.
OH, HEY, WE'RE BACK TO THE PAST, WOOO
I dunno know if it's just the lighting but. South may have dyed the tips of her hair pink.
2/1/18
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 1:26 PM
and we're back
...that was weird
What the hell is up with these earthquakes?
Well, that actually does make sense.
I guess
can we go back to the past again, please?
I mean. This series does have a compilation movie. I'm watching the broken up into chunks form of it right now!
Sure, all you guys do half the time is stand around and talk but
Still funny as all hel--wait a minute, was the grenade there before?
SON OF A BITCH
Oh, hey, we're back in the past, woo!
A new agent? Going up against... two names I recognize, and one I feel I should?
Hmmmmmmm
oh my god
OH MY GOD
TEX?!
IS THAT YOU?
I... I just saw this conversation, can we get to the ass-kicking?
oh my god, Wash used to be so awkward
Wait... Oh god. I probably should've made this connection but... This guy I feel I should know, Maine... he has what will be Meta's armor. So, I'm just gonna jump to a conclusion real quick.
Oh
My
God
TEX JUST KICKED SOME ASS
THAT WAS AWESOME
They just... Dammit Wyoming.
Dammit Maine.
Live ammo?
Really?
OH GOD
YORK
...I don't know why I'm concerned, because I know he lives until Out of Mind but
OH GOD
...They almost got a teammate killed. I don't care if it's "adaptability" or "ingenuity", it's still fucking horrible.
My thoughts exactly, Tex. Bunch of idiots indeed. That's part of why I love them!
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 2:04 PM
...I love the blood gulch crew, or well, in this case memories of them, really I do, but... there's shit going down in the past, can we PLEASE focus on that?
wait. wait a minute
Puma Battery
Really?
omg
pfffffffffffft
you know... you could just say... Smith Anderson. Smith is a first name, after all.
oh
oh boy
YES, BACK TO THE PASTTT
Oh. Oh my god. It's... the Alpha. It's Church, even if it isn't quite technically but.
God, how I've missed you.
I am pumped up for this heist.
pfffffffffffffffft
Lopez is back to being a freaking head again
YES
BACK TO THE PAST WOOOOOOOOOOOOO
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I DON'T CARE ABOUT EPSILON-GULCHHH
JUST LEMME STAY IN THE PAST WHERE SHIT'S COOL
I just
pfffffft
can't fucking believe this
you really don't have more to say about him?
Any of you?
Alright then, time to steal a sarcophagus! ...but why are we stealing it, again? Eh.
Oh my god, Maine and Wash both grabbed weapons. And the nod they give each other, holy shit I feel sad now.
...what?
What the hell is that guy who Carolina and Wash are up against now?!
Pffffffffffft
Ahahaha! This is awesome!
OH MY GOD
THAT ENTIRE SCENE
AWESOME
YAY MAINE, COMING IN WITH THAT WARTHOG!
AND THE FALLING TOWARDS THE SKY ACCOMPANYING IT?
MMHMM
I LIKE
THAT WAS FUCKING BRILLIANT
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I DON'T WANNA LEAVE THE PAST!
IT'S COOL!
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 3:00 PM
well, that was easy
pfffffft
lmao
this is a terrible, terrible plan
WOOO BACK IN THE PAST
oh my GOD
THAT WAS FUCKING
BADASS
ughhhhhhh
I keep forgetting that the Epsilon-Gulch plot is a thing whenever I watch the freelancer plot.
And there's always a feeling of despair whenever I'm brought back to that reality
WOOO
BACK TO THE PAST!
wait... so the Super Speed enhancement... used to be Carolina's, huh.
THAT WAS AMAZING
aw, damn. Back to Epsilon-Gulch...
pfffffft
i take it back, this is hilarious.
The plan even worked!
lmfao
Hi again, Andy. I can't really say I missed you.
...There's only so many hits this fourth wall can take, guys. Be careful with it, it's still dealing with the damage dealt to it by other shit.
Grif, seriously, the fourth wall is fragile
And that timing was utterly perfect!
Okay then, back to the past!
oh no
oh no
It's begun
NONONONO
augh
no
no
Oh... oh god.
Delta... hi, man. It's nice to see you.
but...
augh
no
...time for Episode 19.
...and things are getting worse.
everything's falling apart now.
Yay.
omfg
Andy... didn't you have one job as a bomb?
wow
i'm impressed.
...I think you guys are that cool and interesting.
I mean, that's not helping your chances of not dying but.
Just saying what I think.
BACK TO THE PAST AND--OH HEY
THAT'S YORK'S FACE, HUH? NEAT
...CT? What are you doing?
And dammit
sigh
Also, the subtitles for this one had small snarky comments in * a form like this *
it was nice
Last episode of Season 9.
...the world shattering... doesn't look how I thought it would.
Anya should get back to bingeing-Today at 4:04 PM
oh
Oh my god. She's gone.
...what
CABOOSE?!
SARGE!
oh
oh god.
That's so sweet of them!
The one time I don't wanna go back to the past.
Dammit.
Well, that was short
Thanks for bringing us back to the present!
CAROLINA?!
WAIT A MINUTE... DIDN'T TEX, THE ORIGINAL TEX, BACK IN BLOOD GULCH SAY YOU DIED?!
Also, That's not Alpha. Alpha... died. You're talking to Epsilon.
also, also, I am all for killing the Director. He deserves it.
And that's how Season 9 ends. Glad I got my goal done.
2/05/18
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 3:45 PM
ahem. So, I have some shit to watch. And I have time to watch it all. Time to watch the last two miniseries I need to watch before getting to Season 10.
First off is MIA
Let's go.
woooooooooooooooooo
Oh god. That's the Blood Gulch Chronicles intro music.
I've missed it. But why is it playing?
Okay... where the hell is Grif?
lmfao
It occurs to me that this is a surprisingly longer miniseries
6 parts
that's long for a miniseries
Oh fucking hell, who kidnapped Grif?
lmfao
I have no idea when in the timeline this is supposed to take place and I don't care because it's too fucking funny
wait what
NO
DON'T CALL COMMAND
I'm pretty sure the proper term for doing reconnaissance is... actually, iunno
lmfao
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 4:01 PM
holy mcfuck
hi Vic
haven't seen you in... forever
Is the them being terrible at everything really that much of a surprise? I mean, this seems to be pre-badass-levels-taken BGC
i'm just lmao in the background here, don't mind me
i'm kinda worried now because A. I seriously doubt that Blue Team has anything to do with the kidnapping and B. Didn't the ransom note say that if Command was contacted, Simmons would be kidnapped next?
...oh shitako
...Sarge, you've confused me now.
Damntastic Despair-Last Monday at 4:13 PM
I don’t think I’ve seen this miniseries
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 4:13 PM
Go watch it.
join me in this
Damntastic Despair-Last Monday at 4:18 PM
Yeah, Church, you’re st fault for the Tetris scenario here
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 4:19 PM
OMG
"Well, what can you do, casting is expensive, shut your mouth."
lmfao
Damntastic Despair-Last Monday at 4:23 PM
Oh my god Tucker
‘That would be lame, I try not to say lame things on the off chance there might be a girl nearby”
Yes Caboose
That is exactly what is happening
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 4:26 PM
pfffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffft
Now I kinda wonder... does the Director has a shit of an aim as Alpha and Epsilon?
lmao
Damntastic Despair-Last Monday at 4:28 PM
Doc returns
Yay
Also that shade they threw at Vegans
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 4:28 PM
ikr?
pfffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffft
lmao
lmao
holy fuck, the two hours later thing makes its return after like 7 seasons
and 3 2/3 miniseries
Damntastic Despair-Last Monday at 4:32 PM
Oh, Caboose
You’re too precious
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 4:33 PM
I mean, I'm pretty sure that the BGC is one fucking team by this point in the show. So, does it really matter?
lmfao
OH NO
NOT HERE AGAIN
OH GOD
WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I DIDN'T WANT TO EVER REMEMBER THE FUCKING ZEALOTS
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
best bubbles-Last Monday at 4:36 PM
AND YOU WILL WORSHIP ME AS THOUGH I WERE A GOD

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Damntastic Despair-Last Monday at 4:36 PM
THE GRUNTS
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 4:36 PM
but seriously though: Where and when on the timeline IS this?
pffffffffffffffffffffffffffffft
omg
Oh fuck, there's a password?!
SERIOUSLY?!
UGH
Damntastic Despair-Last Monday at 4:39 PM
I think it’s a previous version of the epsilon unit
Or maybe I’m just assuming that because it’s made in reach
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 4:41 PM
i mean, that's a smart assumption.
AHAHAHAHAHAHA
OMG
OF COURSE IT'S THE PASSWORD
Damntastic Despair-Last Monday at 4:42 PM
Caboose
You are adorable
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 4:44 PM
omg
PFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFT
so... it's a preview for a ransom. Sure, that makes logical sense in every shape and form
sarcasm levels for Anya: 99%
Damntastic Despair-Last Monday at 4:46 PM
Of course
Of course that’s how this ends
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 4:47 PM
oh no fucking shit, whoever made the note has Grif!
OH MY GOD
LMFAO
Well, at least we know Grif's okay!
...And Donut too, I guess.
Time for the miniseries with a longer name I can't be bothered to type!
lmfao
that is a good question. I'm just hoping the answer is less mildly horrific than the reason there'd be two armies made up of imcompetant people fighting in a canyon in the middle of nowhere.
..actually, the "why is there a military base in the middle of a canyon" question has an answer. It's... it's not a particularly pleasant answer.
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 5:04 PM
OMG
PFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
HOLY FUCK
I mean, driving through a metal wall does seem impossible but... what material was the thing that Grif drove through in s8 e3?
...now that I think about it, that was rock.
never mind, this is a stupid idea
well, there goes the Warthog.
lmfao
Welp, that settles who gets the Helicopter. The Reds do.(edited)
for some reason, I'm having flashbacks.
lmao
pfffffffffffffffffffffffffffffahahahaha
Okay, time to stop trying to hide from my work
Season 10 bingeing is... go!
So... we're in the past... yet Grifball exists... UM?!
THAT'S ANACHRONIC
Hi, Delta!
And hi, York!
Wait... oh shit, seems the implantation process has started or something
Or at least, the partnering up of the Freelancers and AIs have.
pffhaha
OH MY GOD
HOLY SHIT
...what's the name of the song playing?
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
But also YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSs
WOOO
TO THE ACTUAL PRESENT
epsilon, do not fly into a rage
do NOT
...Blue Team may or may not have... adopted Washington as one of their own while you were away, Epsilon.
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 8:00 PM
pffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffft
omg
...well, I mean, he can't see or hear me so... fuck it. Still calling him Epsilon.
WAIT WHAT
WHAT'S HAPPENING?
AND BACK TO THE PAST!
...I love 479-er. So much.
"Out of the frying pan, and into the shit."
So... Carolina... "apparently" gave up her AI. So, this is after the implantation process.
Probably.
I think.
...What happened to Georgia?
OMG
"Why do cars hate me?"
That is a good question, Wash.
THAT WAS MCFUCKING AWESOME
...CT? What the hell are you doing?
CT? WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?
And back to the present!
WOOO!
...That's Simmons' choice of music for when he drives the Warthog.
I think I see why we let Grif drive.
and they're still going at it like an old married couple, I see.
Damntastic Despair-Last Monday at 8:18 PM
Didn't you listen to the song? Georgia's underneath a bus
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 8:18 PM
pfffffffffffffffffft
fair enough
Damntastic Despair-Last Monday at 8:19 PM
and Grif and Simmons are an old married couple, nobody can convince me otherwise(edited)
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 8:19 PM
same tho
i mean, come on. Everyone can see it.
Damntastic Despair-Last Monday at 8:20 PM
also what was the song you mentioned earlier?
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 8:20 PM
York was falling out of such and such ship.
First Episode.
oh, Carolina... you really didn't know what you were getting, did you?
OH, HEY, BACK TO THE PAST!
Hi, York!
...That was a rough landing, damn
Same tho, Wash. Because I doubt Georgia's just under a bus.
Oh god... CT was dating that guy... and she's going with him. Where are they going?!
And back to the present!
DAMMIT
WHERE'S EPSILON
Oh my god! He's hitching a ride! In Tucker's AI Storage unit!
Holy shit!
or... just his storage unit
eh
meh
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 8:41 PM
THE WORST TIMING, DIRECTOR
FUCK YOU
pffffffffffffffffft
I love you, Delta. You are amazing.
THAT WAS AWESOME!
AND BACK TO THE PRESENT!
Because getting dragged along is pretty much the only way you guys will be plot important!
I mean. It's the truth.
oh goddammit, where did the others go.
what are you two doing?
Oh, hey, this episode has a callback for a name!
...what?
The AI Maine got partnered with... used to be Carolina's?
Is that why she gave it/them up?
...Sigma. Okay.
dammit, Tucker!
DAMMIT, TUCKER!
Carolina, holy fucking shit can you be any more icy
AND BACK TO THE PAST!
WOAH, HOLY SHIT, IS THAT EVERYONE WITH THEIR HELMETS OFF?!
LEMME SEE AGAIN QUICK!
Dammit, we don't get to see Wash's face yet
Why the hell is Sigma burning?
No, really. Why the hell does Sigma look like that?
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 9:00 PM
4 stages of Rampancy... why the hell do I have a feeling that this is where Halo shit comes in
Would someone be willing to explain it to me?
best bubbles-Last Monday at 9:03 PM
Well, you remember how they said all AI's are based on people?
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 9:03 PM
yes
of course i do
best bubbles-Last Monday at 9:03 PM
That's Halo canon as well
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 9:03 PM
Huh
best bubbles-Last Monday at 9:04 PM
But as the AI ages, they kinda
Go crazy
rampancy is where they begin to degenerate mentally
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 9:05 PM
ohhhh
best bubbles-Last Monday at 9:06 PM
Many of them start to see themselves as superior to their creators
They also become violent and paranoid
In the end, the go the Skynet route
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 9:06 PM
oooooooo
oof
yyyyikes
best bubbles-Last Monday at 9:07 PM
Yep
You can think of it like an AI version of rabies
Only brought on by age
And for most AI, that age is around seven years
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 9:08 PM
hmmm
best bubbles-Last Monday at 9:09 PM
In Halo canon, the UNSC has a regulation for dealing with this called Final Dispensation
Basically AI euthanasia
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 9:09 PM
jesus
best bubbles-Last Monday at 9:09 PM
Yep
Which, in hindsight, makes Project Freelancer seem all the most dangerous
Imagine if they got their hands on a bunch of smart AI's instead of fragments
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 9:11 PM
oh fuck
best bubbles-Last Monday at 9:12 PM
Yeah
Don't even wanna think about that
if the mess they were already in was caused by fragments
God, would that mean they'd all become like the Meta?
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 9:14 PM
okay, I think that's enough thinking about that for tonight!
best bubbles-Last Monday at 9:14 PM
Yeah, bad thoughts ^^;
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 9:19 PM
okay, enough studying rampancy and AI, time to get back to binging!
best bubbles-Last Monday at 9:20 PM
Basically, you could rename it Skynet Syndrome : P
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 9:20 PM
pfffft
AND BACK TO THE PRESENT!
dammit, Carolina! You're just. You're making all the rookie mistakes with interacting with this crew, omg!
It's oddly amazing to watch
pffffft
wait, what? Oh, yeah, I guess you guys are criminals now because of the whole rescuing Epsilon thing.
huh
episode 7 is a go!
AND BACK TO THE PAST!
THE CHAIRMAN!
OH MY GOD
I'M HAVING FLASHBACKS TO RECONSTRUCTION NOW
Malcolm Hargrove, huh.
oh no
oh...
...I've never gotten a good look at Carolina's eyes before. That shade of green... it reminds me of fresh growing mint, almost.(edited)
AND BACK TO THE PRESENT
And this is our friendly reminder that Epsilon has the memories of a shit-ton of people
best bubbles-Last Monday at 9:39 PM
Carolina: mint flavor
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 9:39 PM
lol
best bubbles-Last Monday at 9:39 PM
Washington: salt flavor
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 9:39 PM
lmfao
best bubbles-Last Monday at 9:39 PM
really though, when you look back at how Wash used to be compared to today
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 9:40 PM
yeah
best bubbles-Last Monday at 9:40 PM
He was almost like the caboose of project freelancer
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 9:40 PM
speaking of the past, we're back in it!
HOLY SHIT
Alpha... Church, the one I've known for 6 fucking seasons--has been name-dropped
And Wash, please, oh please take off the helmet! Everyone else has! Please! I want to see what you look like under the helmet instead of coming up with shitty headcanons for what you look like!
Wash... are you eating a banana with the helmet on?!
best bubbles-Last Monday at 9:44 PM
Yes
yes he is
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 9:45 PM
OH MY GOD
ROOSTER TEETH, WTF
WHYYY
WHY ARE YOU FUCKING WITH US
PLEASE, I JUST WANNA SEE WHAT HE LOOKS LIKE
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
and the episode's over
and i'm still mildly upset because
augh
you guys know
Also... who was the guy spying on CT and her group with Wyoming?
He had Blue armor, but not like--sim trooper regulation blue.
a more... cobalt-ish shade of blue
ahahahaha
The mcfucking callbacks here!
lmfao
AND BACK TO THE PRESENT AND OH DAMMIT
YAY, BACK TO THE MCFUCKING DESERT
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 10:00 PM
pfffft
AND BACK TO THE PAST, WOW WAS THAT SHORT
I love you, 479-er.
yep
My heart officially belongs to 479-er and Delta... as well as all the BGC... and Epsilon... and Wash... and a bunch of characters not even from this series and--well, I have a big heart, okay? There's enough to go around!
RIP, attempted reference/call forward
rip
THAT WAS COOL
woah boy
It's official. Cars, Warthogs in particular, have some sort of grudge against Wash.
oh my god
whatever's about to happen... it's gonna be epic
there is just no way, no fucking how I can trust Sigma. I mean... just look at the guy! He radiates untrustworthiness, holy shit
well, that was awesome
AND BACK TO THE PRESENT
best bubbles-Last Monday at 10:26 PM
He's also voiced by Elijah Wood
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 10:27 PM
Huh.
best bubbles-Last Monday at 10:27 PM
Frodo is now a flaming AI
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 10:27 PM
wait, what
w h a t
friendenemepanion
did i type that right?
pffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffft
subtle call-back, i see
omg
We're gonna put Epsilon.. inside a motorcycle... okay, sure
AND BACK TO THE PAST
Oh shit, hi, Wyoming!
pffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffft
oh god
I forgot he likes knock-knock jokes
oh, hi, Tex
AND BACK TO THE PRESENT
no, wait, never mind.
BACK TO THE PAST
...did we really need to leave?
woah
The unidentified Cobalt just pulled an ax out of his arm.
woah
WOAH
Damn, "Cobalt"'s pretty awesome!
...I feel bad for CT. She clearly's gotten some idea of the shit that is going on.
NO
wOAH
CT...
CT!
No
I'm actually... crying
this... how is this the first time this show's brought me to tears?
best bubbles-Last Monday at 10:46 PM
hugs
Emotions are complicated
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 10:48 PM
oh
so... that's why we returned to the desert... okay then
why is it now that i get to be punched in the gut by this show, though? There were... there were other moments, so many other moments.
so why now?
Edventure Quest-Last Monday at 10:52 PM
What's happening
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 10:52 PM
ct
i just finished season 10, episode 10
Edventure Quest-Last Monday at 10:55 PM
Oh- ;;
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Monday at 10:55 PM
imma need some time to... to think on all this.
And it's almost 11, I should have gone to sleep long ago anyways.
Edventure Quest-Last Monday at 11:03 PM
Get some rest okay?
2/06/18
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Tuesday at 9:09 AM
Okay so. I've had some time, time to get back to binging.
Time for Episode 11, Out of Body
And we're in the present!
I believe Epsilon's former body of residence is probably still in the old Freelancer Training Building.
hmmmm
AND BACK TO THE PAST WHERE OH, LOOK
MORE RECONSTRUCTION FLASHABCKS
HOLY MCSHIT
YORK AND NORTH ARE DRESSED IN SOMETHING THAT ISN'T A UNIFORM OR A SUIT OF ARMOR
THIS IS
THIS IS FUCKING AMAZING
yeah... two people in the same head... I can see how that'd be an experience.
Huh, the name of the next episode is also the name of the first miniseries I had to watch.
That's... a thing.
Oh.
OH NO
AUGH
we're back to the present and...
there's the fucking intro chords for reconstruction.
and recovery one, too, i guess
damn
oh god
augh
omg
oh
oh no
oh god
oh god.
that's the most i've ever cried because of this show.
what... what did she say to him, anyways?
Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
I think I like Carolina now
And so... now we're going back to Valhalla.
A lot of things are keys in this series, apparently.
lmao
AND BACK TO THE PAST
hi Gamma... nice to see you?
well, I mean, I'm pretty sure Tex is doing most of the work. She's a bit of a badass, after all.
oooooooooooooooooooo
catfight, catfight
dammit, Carolina, you think you know. But you don't
DAMMIT, CAROLINA
dammit, Carolina.
...never mind, I'm pretty sure South is the actual embodiment of rage, Omega can just pack up and go home.
Um... is that supposed to be a call-forward or is it oddly fitting just to hear Wash say recovery one?
AND BACK TO THE PRESENT
and...
that was short
BACK TO THE PAST
hoo bo y
this is going to be a fight, alright
ah fuck
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Tuesday at 10:01 AM
AND BACK TO THE PRESENT
...what?
what?
This... something's off. But... in a good way.
ahahahahAAHAHAHAAHAHA
OH MY GOD
DONUT'S ALIVE?!
OH
MY
GOD
lmfao
What the hell do you mean, "might be"? They are
AND BACK TO THE PAST!
oh god.
freelancer's started unraveling.
good
I have never, ever hated the Director like I do right(edited)
now
what the shit
there's just... an empty hole inside of me... no wait, there's the anger
AND BACK TO THE PRESENT, WHERE I WILL HOPEFULLY FORGET EVERY SHITTY THING I JUST SAW BECAUSE
GOD
And back to the past, and I didn't forget, which sucks
Oh god
OH GOD NO
NO
CT... you... you were incredible.
and...
oh god
oh no
so... we know where to find the director.
Good.
He needs to pay.
Edventure Quest-Last Tuesday at 10:33 AM
Good Anya, give into the darkness.
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Tuesday at 10:35 AM
I can't see a reason why, for any of his crimes. He couldn't let go. But that is no reason to drag innocent fucking people into his shit. That is no reason to make an AI copy of his personality, then put that AI through countless horrible scenarios just to break him apart. THAT IS NO GODAMN REASON TO DO THE THINGS HE'S DONE
AND THAT? THAT'S WHAT MAKES ME HATE HIM SO MUCH
I CAN UNDERSTAND WHY SOME ASSHOLES DO WHAT THEY DO. I CAN TRY AND MAKE SENSE OF THE MOTIVES BEHIND THE SHIT OF XEHANORT AND JUNKO. BUT DOING SUCH
SUCH HORRIBLE THINGS? WITH NO GOOD, EXPLAINABLE REASON?!
THAT'S FUCKING IT
THE DIRECTOR NEEDS. TO. DIE.
i don't think i've ever hated so much.
Edventure Quest-Last Tuesday at 10:37 AM
But what about the reds and blues?
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Tuesday at 10:39 AM
...At the end of the day, they're victims of all this bullshit as well. And who's to say that the use of Sim Troopers started with the Director?! But, yeah, they're fucking victims of his bullshit too. ...I wish I could say I could understand why the director would go off a slope, and nearly drag everyone else down with him.
BUT I CAN'T
AND I FUCKING
...i just
I need some time to clear my head of this rage
maybe punch a wall or something.
okay, i've punched a wall a couple of times.
it did not help.
just makes my hand hurt
god, do i hate that man
Damntastic Despair-Last Tuesday at 3:23 PM
Man, if you hate the director this much...
I can't wait until you get to season 15
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Tuesday at 3:24 PM
why?
Damntastic Despair-Last Tuesday at 3:24 PM
Well, I had a very similar rage-filled reaction to the main antagonist of that season
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Tuesday at 3:24 PM
huh.
that bodes fucking well
also, I have now cleared my head of the unstoppable anger
let's try and finish the season.
And they've started the AI removal process after Wash had Epsilon for a few days.
at least a few days.
I'm pretty sure Omega's the one who piloted the getting the fuck out of there,, tbh.
oh my god. York and Tex are working together... oh god. Are they... they're trying to rescue Alpha?
aaaaand back to the present!
omg
...
wow
that was...
yeah
fuck
this... this is the season where i start fucking crying
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Tuesday at 3:50 PM
of course it goddamn is
i got off easy for the last ten, but now?
ahahaha
here come the fucking tears'
...
yeah, there is nothing i can say here
and back to the past...
jesus fucking christ, how many random soldiers will be voiced by ian and anthony from smosh this season anyways?!
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Tuesday at 4:00 PM
oh god
she tossed him a lighter
probably the lighter she originally took from him
oh god
the mother of invention just crashed
aUGH
oh god
Church...?
oh
oh god
i'm legit fucking bawling for the... three people curious, fyi
Edventure Quest-Last Tuesday at 4:05 PM
*eyes emoji*
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Tuesday at 4:05 PM
I'm 10 minutes into episode 19
fuck
Maine, what are you doin---Carolina?!
Is she alright?
OH GOD
META... THE FUCK
episode 19... i finished it
ha
hahaha
Damntastic Despair-Last Tuesday at 4:13 PM
Season 10 does not withold the gut punches
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Tuesday at 4:13 PM
it is not
it's time for episode 20. I don't think we'll be going back to the past any more.
omg
I forgot Grif kinda, sorta... has the knifle now.
and yes, i am calling it a knifle
if we can call crescent rose a sycfle, then we can call the brute shot a knifle
oh, great. now the UNSC people come.
Fucking joyyyyy
That was easy.
funny. I have this weird feeling.
Like we're never going to see this place again.
and...
oh shit.
It's a horde of Tex.
And we all saw episode 10 of Season 8.
This is going to either suck or be amazing.
Episode 21 time
Oh, hey, CGI in the modern day! That hasn't been seen for a while!
oh shit
CAROLINA!
...oh, look!
HERE COMES THE CAVALRY!
IN ALL THEIR SOMEHOW AWESOME GLORY!
OH MY GOD
IS THAT...
I KNOW THAT MELODY LIKE THE BACK OF MY HAND
OH MY GOD
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
THAT WAS AWESOME
oh come the fuck on, why are we mirroring the dialogue which made me sob not 30 minutes ago
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
that was incredible
and... now it's time.
time for the director... to get what's coming to him.
he needs to pay, alright
...they have... ha ha ha... they have the same eyes.
Damntastic Despair-Last Tuesday at 4:43 PM
Oh man.
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Tuesday at 4:43 PM
About what?
Damntastic Despair-Last Tuesday at 4:43 PM
This is my second favourite scene in RvB
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Tuesday at 4:45 PM
ha
hahahaha
my god
and i guess.
I guess that the main quest... has ended.
Now what, though?
...Where are we going?
Back to the past?!
Really?!
WAIT, WHAT
CAPTAIN FLOWERS... WAS A FREELANCER?!
AGENT FLORIDA, NO LESS?!
HE'S THE COBALT GUY?!
WHAT THE HELL, THOUGH?
WHAT THE HELL EVEN HAPPENED TO THAT STATE, THOUGH?!
wait what
They fucking
destroyed florida
the state
just for a cover story
Okay, there's horrible
there's terrible
there's a point of no return
But this? This is just incredulous
Damntastic Despair-Last Tuesday at 4:51 PM
Project Freelancer: Fucked up.
best bubbles-Last Tuesday at 4:51 PM
I remember how much the reveal mindfucked me
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Tuesday at 4:51 PM
i give up
i give the fuck up on ever understanding anything to do with project freelancer
i just
I already gave up once
I'm doing it again, but with real meaning
ahahaha
Where are we now, guys?
They... we're home.
Ahahaha.
She does sound like a smart lady.
Carolina, Epsilon... good luck, you two.
And it's over.
I finished Season 10 and god was that an emotional wringer(edited)
Damntastic Despair-Last Tuesday at 5:00 PM
Season 11 is a lot less of an emotional roller coaster than Season 10 was
as is Season 12, and most of Season 13
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Tuesday at 5:00 PM
...most of Season 13
Damntastic Despair-Last Tuesday at 5:00 PM
But yes, now you're at the Chorus Trilogy!
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Tuesday at 5:00 PM
That... that bodes...
...what were you going to say, V?
Damntastic Despair-Last Tuesday at 5:05 PM
i don't think I was going to say anything?
other than The Chorus Trilogy is amazing
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Tuesday at 5:06 PM
you were typing
Damntastic Despair-Last Tuesday at 5:06 PM
I was? eh, whatever, I don't remember what I was gonna say
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Tuesday at 5:06 PM
ahh
so, um
What was the AU you wanted to tell me?
Damntastic Despair-Last Tuesday at 5:18 PM
an AU where all the AI are Carolina's flesh and blood siblings
When someone asks why she's named Carolina while all her siblings have names like Alpha, Omega, Epsilon, etc. she responds with "My mom named me."
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Tuesday at 5:19 PM
PFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFT
We could call that AU: "The one where Carolina is annoyed by her various idiot and jerkass brothers. Constantly."
"The idiot friends of two of them don't help."
Damntastic Despair-Last Tuesday at 5:22 PM
Theta is obviously the youngest sibling
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Tuesday at 5:22 PM
clearly
Damntastic Despair-Last Tuesday at 5:22 PM
and if anyone ever hurt him, they get all 8 angry siblings coming after them
also, did you pick up on the fact that Beta was Tex?
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Tuesday at 5:23 PM
yes, I did.
that and TVTropes has spelled it out for me.
It's handy for that.
Damntastic Despair-Last Tuesday at 5:26 PM
it is
so there are two Church Jrs and a Tex Jr. in this AU family
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Tuesday at 5:27 PM
pfffffffffffffffffffft
Damntastic Despair-Last Tuesday at 5:27 PM
completely ignoring the sexual tension between any incarnations of Church and Tex though, because incest=gross
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Tuesday at 5:28 PM
yep
i'm not sure I'm ready for Season 11
I know you said it's supposed to be lighter, but...
i'm not sure i'm ready
Edventure Quest-Last Tuesday at 5:37 PM
The Chorus Trilogy won't hurt you...too much
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Tuesday at 5:37 PM
oh. that makes it all better.
...you know? Life is short. Might as well start it.
Damntastic Despair-Last Tuesday at 5:45 PM
You won't be hit too hard in the gut during Season 11
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Tuesday at 5:46 PM
that's... reassuring.
dammit
So that's what happened.
We got shipwrecked.
Joy.
glorious.
I mean, that is an accurate description of movie trailers nowadays
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Tuesday at 6:02 PM
Oh my god
That organizational chart tho
Anya should get back to bingeing-Last Tuesday at 8:26 PM
http://archiveofourown.org/works/2189811/chapters/4795215
so, I found this
It's good. Really good. I guess I can thank TVTropes for guiding me to it.
2/07/18
Anya should get back to bingeing-Yesterday at 2:31 PM
Okay so
I have some time before I need to start packing up
Let's see how much of Season 11 I can get through today!
wha?
Who's there?
WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS TRAINING COURSE?!
That plan could work, actually!
...we... we really could just cut out the middle man and use the radio transmitter itself?
so...
dammit, Tucker.
yeah...
How long has it fucking been since the ship crashed, anyways?
of fucking course
The next episode's name implies that we're finally going to get a start on getting out of this goddamn canyon-in-a-jungle! WOOOOO
WE'RE GETTING A SIGNAL!
Anya should get back to bingeing-Yesterday at 3:01 PM
of course
sigh
dammit, don't know why I got myself excited there.
so... I
I'm just going to set my things going wrong timer to five seconds.
It seems appropriate.
i'm dying a bit inside.
just a little bit.
Um
...Okay then
Oh goddammit.
holy shitak
...wha?
Who's that?!
2/10/18
Anya-Today at 12:20 PM
okay i've been putting this off, time for more binging!
Episode 7 time
...that is a good question.
...
i'm going to blame halo game mechanics for that
I would've called it a chameleon then!
ehehehehe
uhh
i'm scared of Freckles
very scared
didn't we already do this in Season 4, dammit?
...
okay, guys, the fourth wall is mcfucking fragile, please don't try and shatter it.
okay... that's the second time we've gone into a random sniper shot, with no logical explanation for who's watching, or why.
I don't have a good feeling about this.
wait wait wait
WHO FORGOT THE MUSIC?!
Anya-Today at 1:00 PM
better
aww man
also... dammit, guys
just... in general
o boy
this is going to be... yeah
oh no
oh no
oh no
lmfao
...wait a fucking minute
....that's Tex's theme
but
what
OH FUCKING HELL
COME ON
YOU DO NOT, ROOSTER TEETH
YOU DO NOT
UGH
...
...no
...you didn't
...that pilot.... that ship was our hope for getting out of this fucking place.
...seriously, please tell me you didn't.
DAMMIT, DONUT
FUCKING
DAMMIT
...huh.
WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU, X-BOX COLORED GUY?!
Anya-Today at 1:28 PM
So... I'm blaming Grif and Tucker for us being stuck here.
best bubbles-Today at 1:28 PM
Valid
Anya-Today at 1:30 PM
wait... does Red Team actually get to carry the plot for a change?! Because if so... fuck yeah!
best bubbles-Today at 1:31 PM
They finally have something to contribute
Anya-Today at 1:32 PM
pfffffffffffft
...hmm?
Oh, it's you. Weird... X-Box guy.
I'm already scared of you.
That's record time
...Locus.
Okay, sure.
best bubbles-Today at 1:34 PM
At first I thought his name was Locust
Anya-Today at 1:34 PM
Wherever we are... we're sure as fuck not alone.
You know, there's a reason I watch with subtitles on. It's mostly to make sure I don't fuck up with the names.
What
you guys have a SIRI here
what
WHAT
THERE'S ANOTHER ONE SPYING ON US
...AND THIS ONE... DOES HE KNOW US?!
I mean, he said, and I quote: "Holy shit. It's actually them."
wha
So... this guy... may know who the Locus fuck is? And... he clearly doesn't like him.
gah
so... the ship... literally broke in half
joy
...where the fuck is the other half, then?
...Grif... I think you might want to back away from that.
best bubbles-Today at 1:43 PM
These guys are not good pilots, are they?
Anya-Today at 1:44 PM
well, yeah, but i'm talking about the weird-ass glowy sticky things
that remind me of bombs
or grenades
and seriously wow, i'm just getting a bad feeling here
we sure they don't do anything except stick?
SON OF A BIT--I knew it.
WHAT THE SHIT
Oh my god! Those things are like mini-teleporters in and out of hammerspace!
HOLY SHIT
or.... teleporter cube
What are you doing, Wash.
WHAT?!
WE HAVE AN INTERNET CONNECTION NOW?!
awwwwww
but still cool
HOLY SHIT, THE CUBES ARE!
I CAN'T BELIEVE I DIDN'T PUT THAT TOGETHER!
HOLY SHIT
Anya-Today at 2:00 PM
WHO ARE YOU, ORANGE STRIPED FUCK
...okay, so maybe you're here to help us
maybe
I'm not sure I trust you just yet
"It's about twenty hours long, and I only enjoy telling it in 5 minute intervals."
Ahem. Our fourth wall is fragile(edited)
And the fourth wall needs to be protected. Please, just listen to me for once.
please
pfffffffffffft
Welp, now we have 3 people to blame for this.
omg
The radio... was turned off.
Wow.
...
what
...what?!
what the fuck?!
oh fuck
...that ship...
It looks familiar
Do you think it's--no, no, the Mother of Invention crashed, it can't be.
I repeat: I am scared of Freckles.
that was so sweet
Anya-Today at 3:03 PM
ah... fuck
...16? No, wait, lemme pull up a count of people I know to be here... that'd be... 11. Who are the other 5?!
OH SHIT
WHAT THE SHIT
WHO THE FUCK WAS AIMING FOR WASH?!
AND, THANK YOU, ORANGE-STRIPED DUDE
...what the shit?!
WHAT THE SHIT?!
WHAT JUST HAPPENED?!
WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON
Well, I mean... yeah.
Felix... okay then.
NO
WE HAVE NO REAL CLUE
...huh?
Chorus? That's what this place is called?
Well, that makes sense, this is called the Chorus Trilogy after all.
also.... ugh
Welp, that's 4 people to blame for our current situation
I hope you four are proud of yourselves.
...what
Crash-landed in the middle of a civil war.
yay
ughhhh
...were you going to say something, Jake?
best bubbles-Today at 3:18 PM
No, sorry
Typed in the wrong chat ^^;
Anya-Today at 3:18 PM
aaaah
rip
best bubbles-Today at 3:19 PM
Also, crash landing in the middle of a civil war
Sounds just like the BGC, doesn't it?
Anya-Today at 3:19 PM
honestly, yes
it does.
Sooo... One side, the side that's not actively trying to murder us, is called The New Republic. Gotcha.
pfffffffffft
I can't believe it.
The greatest soldiers in the galaxy?
are you sure you're not thinking of... anyone else?!
best bubbles-Today at 3:22 PM
I mean
They did kinda kill several freelancers
Anya-Today at 3:22 PM
...true.
best bubbles-Today at 3:22 PM
Some unintentionally, but still
Anya-Today at 3:23 PM
fair enough
but... the greatest?
I... I have to doubt that, deep down.
soooooooooooo
what you're saying is... time to be part of a rebellion. That we know... very little about.
Sure, why not
But also.... no.
Why?
We're still mcfucking stranded and... again, you're asking the Blood Gulch Crew. Despite what you may think, they're only occasionally competent.
wait what
Ohhhh... you mean the mercenary definition of Freelancer that was used back in Season 1 and never again.
oh
...what?
What do you mean, "about to be hit... hard."?
They... probably aren't.
But, well... they did take down the Meta. And an entire army of Tex. So maybe we won't die after all.
let's prepare for a battle.
....those are the stupidest landmines ever.(edited)
Of all time.
how about we don't try and re-activate the malfunctioning robot who tried to murder everyone?
That seems smart.
welp. seems there's still some problems with the helmet.
yayyyy
Yeah, where are Epsilon and Carolina anyways?
The Federal Army... that's our enemy, it seems.
...shitty name for an opposing side.
...You know what, Felix? I think I may like you yet.
Edventure Quest-Today at 3:49 PM
Pretty chill guy. I like Felix
Anya-Today at 3:51 PM
Well, who knew? Wash is back in... a pretty close replication of his old armor.
Edventure Quest-Today at 3:52 PM
Noice
Anya-Today at 3:53 PM
ah great. I mean... I can understand why Lopez Dos is doing this... kinda. But now is not the goddamn time
Oh look, it is a Robot battle now.
Yay?
OH SHIT
WE GOT LOCUS HERE NOW
AND I'M GOING GUESS MORE ON THE WAY
YEP, DEFINITELY MORE
FUCK
also... where the hell is Doc?
Eh. We'll focus on that later
WE GOT A BATTLE TO FIGHT
WOOOOO
oh
WOOOOOO
Anya-Today at 4:01 PM
AHAHAHAHAHA
WOOOOO
NICE ONE, DONUT!
....dammit Donut.
OH SHIT, NOT
Oh thank god
YAHAHAHA, WOOHOO TUCKER!
...oh crap
OH CRAP
LOPEZ!
WOOO
NO
WASH
SARGE
FUCK YOU, LOCUS!
...what was that?
wait...
we got backup
but... oh no.
oh no no no no
WASH
WASH, PLEASE, COME ON
NO
NO, YOU IDIOT
NO
NO
no
no
nononononono
...
no
...
I
no
Sarge, Donut, Wash, Lopez... we left them all behind.
WE LEFT THEM BEHIND, WE SHOULD HAVE STAYED LONGER
WE DON'T EVEN KNOW IF SARGE IS STILL ALIVE!
...
no
...it's time for the final episode... I guess.
And... hey, wait, is it starting on a call-back to Season 3? I feel like it is.
...So this is the New Republic base.
...no
no
hi, there, Miss Kimball... I guess.
i... i can't believe it.
I don't want to believe it.
They... they can't be dead.
Edventure Quest-Today at 4:17 PM
hugs Shhh
Anya-Today at 4:18 PM
Those fucks have pulled through worse and weirder, they have to be alive!
i
...they have to be
THEY'RE ALIVE
OH THANK FUCK
Well... that makes our course obvious.
I don't know what's going on here. But half of our crew is being held captive by these guys you people call your enemy. So... let's fight this goddamn war.
And the promise of fucking off and getting as far away from Chorus afterwards?! FUCK YEAH
...so... we're putting these 4 in charge of troops. Sure, why the hell not.
So there's a stinger. Let's watch that.
Wait... that crate... why would it need to be recovered?
...Carolina?
CAROLINA?!
HWAT
...that's why you got him to keep them alive.
thanks
BUT ALSO WHAT THE FUCL
Anya-Today at 4:48 PM
I can't believe I just finished Season 11.
I'm like
I'm mcfucking shook to the shookiest degree because
well
a lot of things
Damntastic Despair-Today at 4:50 PM
The chorus trilogy only gets better from here
Edventure Quest-Today at 4:50 PM
pats
Things get better
But things get worse.
Anya-Today at 4:50 PM
...
i'm not sure how to respond to either of those because one is things getting better, but things getting worse, and the other is V saying it only gets better from here.
And I don't know how much I trust V
Edventure Quest-Today at 4:52 PM
That's all you get from moi. Take my words as you see fit
Damntastic Despair-Today at 4:54 PM
I say better as in the story gets more interesting as it goes on
Anya-Today at 4:54 PM
yeah
that's why i didn't know how to respond to your comment
Damntastic Despair-Today at 4:54 PM
Also, VA reference time
Locus: Roman
Kimball: Ruby
And Felix: Jaune
Anya-Today at 4:59 PM
.....
..........
so that's the reason I like Felix so much!
2/12/18
Anya-Today at 3:41 PM
So like, I'm going to try and complete the next few seasons before I start writing down any more stuff for the AU soooo
Season 12 time!
Wooo!
best bubbles-Today at 3:41 PM
Woo!
Anya-Today at 3:42 PM
Let's go!
Oh god. Of course.
lmao
Heyyy, CGI! Haven't seen that in a whiel
*while
fucking hell, me
I can't fucking believe these guys are captains.
THE PASSWORD WAS PASSWORD, FUCKING OF COURSE
I feel, so, so bad for the New Republic right now.
...I see the problem here.
You're trusting them with plans
Th--nothing they've ever accomplished had any real plans behind the actions! Just spur of the moment tactics that led to them not dying!
Anya-Today at 4:02 PM
Well, that was a thing. On to Episode 2!
Yeahhh, can't believe it took you so long to realize that they are, in fact, kind of dumb.
oh. oh my god.
A fucking lead.
god dammit.
RUN
RUN, YOU GODDAMN IDIOT
well, this all went to hell in a handbasket very fast
son of a bitch
Episode 3 and... hey, isn't this what happened when the Meta was defeated?
Is this referencing how Chekov's Gun works as a trope?
Also... sigh
lol
You know where they are?!
Suicide and a bunch of puppies dying.
I like that analogy for some reason.
5 days...
hoo boy
Episode 4
...how?
...Um. That's a good question.
I don't think there's an answer.
oh my god
we could be... actually training right now
but nope
instead we get this
I'm not even sure I'm surprised
OH MY GOD
I mean, according to the rules of calling dibs... Grif's in charge now.
But... those aren't the best rules to follow so....
let's disregard that.
Felix... standing around and talking is their fucking bread and butter.
I mean, if you want to watch this trainwreck that is these guys, I could just give you the way to the youtube channel
Episode 5
pffffffffffft
Felix, how can you be so ...iunno, yet so lovable?
This is going to be great.
sigh
Time to watch all the ways these 8 fail!
Woo!
lmao
SON OF A BITCHPFFFFFAHAHAHA
2/13/18
Anya-Today at 4:07 PM
so... I have the time (and lack of people I'm showing the series to in the house) to continue watching Season 12 today!
Let's go
...huh?
Kimball, lady... ya mind explaining?
Wanderer of the Shade-Today at 4:13 PM
Whelp, I finished Season 14 of RvB. It had some fun and some feels, BUT NOW I CAN GET TO S15 WHOO!
Anya-Today at 4:13 PM
Oh... oh these kids haven't heard the story of the Blood Gulch Chronicles yet. You don't know about the whole... team-killing fucktard thing. Oh, you four are innocent.
Oh... lmao
I still feel bad for the rebels. They have to put up with... these idiots and their various... yeah.
Oh, great, back to the plot shit.
Oh?
Well, this is going to be interesting...
Woo!
Oh? We're not bringing the other four? Well, I mean, I think I can see why we want to keep them out of this. What we want to do--rescue the others-- isn't part of their fight.
I mean... yeah.
The Federal Army will be expecting actual, real smart fighters trying to get into this base. Not a bunch of lucky idiots who somehow manage to be badass.
Let's do this!
I wonder that on a daily basis.
WOAH, HEY, WHAT'S WITH THE CGI?
...and why does it give me a bad feeling about this?
JESUS FUCK A CORPSE
oh shit
We're almost at the base... almost there.
WHAT
I mean... okay, sure?
GYAH, DEFINITELY WORKED
Unnamed Voice...? Jesus fuck, that's either the subtitler giving no shits or a hint I should be suspicious.
guys... isn't the obvious answer to try and hide?
...you know what, I shouldn't even bother suggesting these plans any more.
lmfao
holy
mcfuck
THERE WASN'T EVEN ANY SNOW THERE!
EVER!
oh shit
I repeat: oh shit
I think worst case scenario is everyone dying.
But, like, my opinion doesn't matter here, so sure, y'all do whatever the fuck you want
There have been worse plans.
...what?
It just opened...
...
Guys?
...What?
what?!
WHAT?!
Caboose, the fourth wall is still fragile
Okay, so, quick recap for those not keeping up with my reactions, I just finished Season 12, Episode 8. Time for a flashback couple of episodes, it seems.
Yeah, sure, Locus, like I'm going to believe a word that come out of your mouth.
Wash, what the hell is happening?
And we're back to the "Wash suffering by account of being the only sane person within 15 miles show"!
Wow. That is not a good officer.
He literally fainted.
...This Emily chick is mildly amazing and mildly frightening.
Damntastic Despair-Today at 4:55 PM
More VA facts
Doyle is voiced by the same guy who does the voices for both Roman and Locus
Anya-Today at 4:56 PM
what
Damntastic Despair-Today at 4:56 PM
and Doctor Gray is voiced by Blake's voice actor
Anya-Today at 4:56 PM
....what
Damntastic Despair-Today at 4:56 PM
Yup
as for the 4... privates, I think
Andersmith-Port Jenkins-Yang Palomo-Neptune
I don't think Bitters's VA has a role in RWBY, but I could be wrong
Anya-Today at 4:57 PM
they're lieutenants, actually
but also... wow
holy shit, wow
yes, Doyle, you should've
Anya-Today at 5:00 PM
Oh my fucking god
this guy's a secretary.
...
oh my fucking god
there's competent people to put in charge, there's incompetent people to put in charge
this?
I have no words for this
...FRECKLES!
NO
NO
...
a moment of silence for Freckles...
Also, Locus... I still hate you.
I hate you a lot more right now, in fact.
HOLY SHIT.
HE UNDERSTANDS SPANISH
THIS IS A FUCKING WONDER IN THIS UNIVERSE
So... the moral I've gotten here is... something's off about this war.
We're probably going to find out what.
And back to the present!
oh... oh shit, yeah... it's silent.
That isn't right.
...what the shit
what the shit
...what
oh shit
oh shit
oh fuck
we... we are in some deep, deep fucking shit now
...fuck you, Felix, and fuck you, Locus.
fuck both of you.
hey
hey, Felix.
Have you been tricked into thinking you were sent into the future?
Have you taken down not just two evil AI, but an honest-to-god Freelancer?
Damntastic Despair-Today at 5:22 PM
Hey, you got to the bit where Felix reveals his true colors!
Anya-Today at 5:23 PM
Have you fought with the Meta, more than once, and lived to see another day? Hell, have you managed to take that motherfucker out?!
Have you beaten an army of Tex clones?
No?
Then you, however great a mercenary you may be, have no fucking place to talk about being a great soldier.
Also, hi V, yes I have.
actually, as much as it pains me to say it, Locus is right. There are.
And, still paining me to say it, but Locus is right again. You kill people quickly, you don't fucking monologue in their faces, that just gives a Big Damn Heroes moment time to set up.
CAROLINA?!
CAROLINA!
WOOHOOO
Oh, hey, seems Emily Gray is coming along for the ride...
also what the fuck
EPSILON!
YES! YES, I DID MISS YOU!
Okay, so after that, I'm going to stop for today.
Watch 5 a day, I should be done with Season 12 by Thursday for me.
Damntastic Despair-Today at 5:34 PM
only five? Wimp. :P
Anya-Today at 5:34 PM
Hey. I watched like, all of Season 3 in one day.
And Season 2, and I think Season One, too.
I think I've done my share of one-sitting-bingeing.
Damntastic Despair-Today at 5:35 PM
Fair enough
2/14/18
Anya-Today at 1:50 PM
so looking at the playlist
holy fuck, why are there 33 episodes for Season 13?!
Is that like
a goof or something or is it just genuinely that long???????
holy fuck
so... anyways, bingeing is goooo
And yet another flashback as we see what Epsilon and Carolina have been up to!
ooo, CGI
this is all cool as fuck!
omg
this is fucking amazing!
that was fucking amazing from start to finish and I haven't even reached the end of the episode
Anya-Today at 2:02 PM
That was an awesome episode
And back to the present, where maybe we can finally get some perspective on what the goddamn hell is going on on this planet!
Ohhh, Emily... you do not want to hear this story. It's long and confusing, and I'm not totally sure how to summarize it.
Well, okay, Emily, let's hear your take on these idiots!
yeah, it does. I'm pretty sure Project Freelancer has something to do with all this because... it always does! Even when we don't think it exists, it does! Even when we're pretty sure it's something else entirely, it does!
What did Project Freelancer do this time?
pfffffffffffffft
they had a mcfucking news article about them
holy mcfuck
I mean, yeah. There have definitely been enough plot twists for one lifetime for you guys.
ohhh
oh shit
someone set this up so the ship would crash on Chorus
Damntastic Despair-Today at 2:11 PM
There’s a lot of bonus content in the season 13 playlist, it’s about the average size of an RvB season
Anya-Today at 2:12 PM
ohhhhh
gotcha
...that's what you're focusing on here, okay then... wait, Simmons... what did you do?
pfffffffffffffffffflmao
we are very likely fucked.
that is all I've gotten out of conclusions for our situation today.
we are very likely amazingly fucked.
so, effectively, the Federal Army and New Republic think we're dead. Great. And we're all likely to die anyways. Great.(edited)
fucking hell
So that's why the knifle hasn't shown up!
holy shit the possession trick makes its return after 6 seasons!
Never have I related more to something Caboose has said.
dibs protocol, fuckers
...an IQ of 240?!
Lady, holy fuck, you're like, a genius
woohoo, let's split up gang.
Anya Sarcasm levels: 51%
Felix, my man... I loathe you
Yet I also kinda like you.
Damntastic Despair-Today at 2:36 PM
that's Felix for you
you hate him for what he does
but yet he's still so goddamn charming
Anya-Today at 2:39 PM
Okay, the actual priority for our missions: don't get fucking captured. We aren't going on any more goddamn rescue missions.
oh crap.
what the fuck is this place...
and we're back to Crash Site Bravo.
yay?
and now we're back to the other crash site!
yeah... so fucking creep---wtf
OKAY, WHAT THE FUCK
WHY THE FUCK IS THERE ANOTHER SPACESHIP HOLY FUCK
oh no
oh fuck
ohhhh
fuck
that's a lot of hostiles.
Woo! We have the manifest!
OH NO
oh thank god
So... time to interrogate this Space Pirate. This'll be horrible.
...Everyone's grown from the guys they were back in Blood Gulch. I'm going through the earlier seasons with my parents and... comparing them in Season 1 to them in Season 12... yeah, my god. They've changed.
sigh
goddammit. Our needed files are under lockdown. Yay.
Anya-Today at 3:01 PM
oh boy
this... this is gonna be interesting
...remind me to never get on Dr. Grey's bad side.
Wanderer of the Shade-Today at 3:03 PM
Ehehehe-
Anya-Today at 3:04 PM
jesus fuck
...tractor beams?
so, that's why we crashlanded.
okay.
jesus FUCL
wait... so the guys fucking around... probably saved us all.
so... thanks, I guess.
actually, no "I guess" about it, thanks.
your mutual idiocy saved us all from death.
FUCK
WE GOT PROBLEMS
AND A LOT OF THEM INCOMING
...oh no.
...what?
back at the gas station???
wha--how?
oh
Well, I have time today... might as well watch more.
and... fuck, I had almost forgotten. Both sides of the civil war are probably being led into a trap... oh no.
...they're delivering what is practically the same speech, aren't they?
I love the lieutenants.
A lot.
fucking hell, Locus.
fucking hell, Locus and probably Felix too because it seems like you guys are just saying the same things to different sides at this point.
Anya-Today at 4:00 PM
I mean... we're used to it.
One argument ain't going to tear shit apart among this group.
wow
Awww, that was sweet!
wait what
...Felix.
...huh?
So... we've been offered a way out. ...something's fishy about this, really.
and, again, I love the lieutenants.
ugh...
I detest the pirates.
...god, how is a show based off of people standing around and talking so good at making me despise their villains?
...And fucking terrible is apparently our best option.
wait
There's an Option D in this.
We teleport directly to the Capitol, and stop it from there.
Now, I know that sounds even worse than nightmare, butttt
Would anyone be expecting it?
No!
And that's what gives us the advantage!
and...
oh no
Oh come the fuck on
Episode 18 is called "Fed vs New", which sickens me and makes me wonder how I didn't pick up on that before at the same time
Woohoo but also fuck
Oh look, seems like the people of Chorus are about to figure this shit out on their own! Good for them!
dammit
oh fuck
ah\
ahahaha
WOOOO
Something I'd just like to point out here: Wash sounded a bit younger there for a second. He just said, in response to nearly falling off a cliff: "It's not a car, it's a cliff." In what is probably the most panicked tone of voice I've heard from him.
wha... Felix... you're saying that about the one guy in the universe that we know has an Energy Sword. Your chances of not dying are decreasing by the second.
best bubbles-Today at 4:39 PM
Felix needs to learn when to shut his piehole
Anya-Today at 4:39 PM
he does, doesn't he?
You know, I feel like, at a certain point, these two mercenaries... they just manage to make me lose all respect for them. Because A: People change, they learn and grow and become better people, and B: ...okay. I don't have a B. But they're causing mass genocide for no good reason. That's a reason to hate them!
pfffffffffffffffffffffft
Locus, you call yourself a mercenary and a soldier. I'm pretty sure that, at some point, there's a difference between the two.
you know... I think I know why I hate these guys almost as much, if not as much, as I do the Director. Because I'm pretty sure the Director wasn't a sociopath.(edited)
SHIT
WHAT
NO
NO
NONONONONONO
Damntastic Despair-Today at 4:45 PM
?
Anya-Today at 4:45 PM
TUCKER
HE JUST GOT FUCKING STABBED IN THE GUT
oh god no
oh god
and back to the capitol... oh god no
oh
oh
oh thank god
Hey, Felix... you still talking shit, I see. Keep talking.
That won't backfire at all.
Heya, Epsilon.
AHAHAHAHA
OH MY GOD
PERFECT!
THE HELMET CAM, OF COURSE
And that monologue while you should've been keeping your eyes on the others? Pffft, Felix, you're making so many fucking mistakes, it's amazing!
perfect
fuck you, mercenaries.
AND OH GOD
TUCKER, PLEASE, PLEASE BE ALRIGHT!
Oh... oh my god.
They've made it to safety.
And the lieutenants have stories of their own to tell
Oh...
oh thank god
he's alright
oh my god
Freckles is a gun now. I completely forgot about that
Damntastic Despair-Today at 4:59 PM
FRECKLES
Anya-Today at 5:02 PM
pfffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffft
ahahahaha
WE'VE GOT THE MANIFEST?!
YEAH AHAHAWOOOHOOO
Charon Industries? Weren't they the people that Project Freelancer was fighting or something?
ohhhhh
yeahhhhhhh
huh
huh?
...hmmmm
Huh?!
Oh, this... this is going to be interesting!
wait... the Chairman?!
That speech was awesome
And I finished Season 12.
Damntastic Despair-Today at 5:11 PM
Season 13 is coming up
prepare for lighthearted happy funtimes!
Anya-Today at 5:11 PM
...
...
I doubt that.
Damntastic Despair-Today at 5:11 PM
in all seriousness though Season 13 is great
2/15/18
Anya-Today at 11:10 AM
so then
Time to start on Season 13!
I'll probably be skipping over most of the side videos, but I think I'll start by watching the trailer for Season 13
OML
Epsilon made a version of the series for the new chairman of blabbity blah
...WHAT
WHAT?!
WHAT?!
AGAIN?!
I... I SWEAR TO GOD IF EPSILON DIES, I MAY--PROBABLY WILL--RIOT
Okay, so now that we're done with the trailer. Time for the actual season
fucking hell, Felix.
hmmm
hey wait a fucking moment. That... that's a full name that we got on your introduction, Price. That's... that's both new and an instant sign that I shouldn't trust you for even a second.
...
what.
what.
Your voice... yeah, I recognize it. You're the Counselor, aren't you?
Yep.
You know what's weird? I'm pretty sure that I know most of his info already, just from watching the prior seasons.
...huh?
who's this other prisoner?
...I have no clue who you are.
but... yeah, no clue.
Oh, hey!
Aaaaand we're now officially back to Chorus!
I assume it's for the same reason none of you guys have been shot yet.
By which I mean, who fucking knows
lmfao
That was a very good breather episode after episode one
and I fucking love it.
Wait... the bubble shield? Really?
yep
that's a bubble shield.
Wait, what? That floating tower thing is an alien temple?
omg
I... I mean, fair enough.
The universe is fucking weird.
WAIT WHAT
HOW THE HELL
ohhhhhhhhh
pfffffffft
Emily? What did you discover?
I mean... yeah, it does. Go... do plot shit, Blue Team. See you guys later.
lmfao
...This base reminds me of somewhere. Can't quite say where but...
It seems familiar.
I have never heard Emily sound so serious before
aaand there it goes.
Anya-Today at 12:01 PM
roflmao
...Yep. No shitting, is this base familiar.
WAIT
OH
MY
GOD
THE TOWER RESPONDED TO THE SWORD
...IS THE SWORD GOING TO BE A KEY AGAIN?!
AHAHAHAHAHA
YES
IT IS
AAAAAH!
OH
W-WAS THAT A FALSE ALARM OR?!
WHAT THE FUCK
oh fuCK
what the fuck
WHAT THE FUCK
WHAT THE SHIT WAS THAT
So... what you're saying is... Tucker accidentally got involved in some alien shit and has to go on a quest of some sort because of it.
Gee, I wonder where I've heard that before.
ya know... might as well watch this PSA. Maybe they'll call out on the show for blatantly using shit from a previous season
...on second thought... nah. I have valuable time
NO
NO
I DON'T WANT TO SEE THESE FUCKS AND... OHHHHH
SHARKFACE?
NOW?!
HUH
Well, some good came out of what happened last episode. Our enemies are down their fancy fucking technology, so the weapons used are on a mostly even playing field.
shit
shit shit shit
Hey. Hey, wait a minute
is that a motherfucking rwby reference right there?
holy mcshit, it is
eh
cool
...holy fuck
FILSS?
Wow, of all the...
wow
WHAT
WHAT THE FUCK
THAT... THAT'S THE META'S ARMOR, ALL RIGHT
AN D FUCK
THERE'S HIS THEME IN THE BACKGROUND, RIGHT NOW
JESUS FUCK
...oh
fuck
they beat us there.
Wow, I like Sharkface.
holy shit
holy shit
Ohhh hey, there you guys are!
...Wash, buddy, I feel like you're about to go into a speech here. Do you seriously think our chances of living through this are that slim?
Anya-Today at 1:01 PM
That's true. The sword thing, I mean. You have to take a few levels of character development to be an unstoppable badass.
wow
I don't think you were even in there a second, Tucker!
Good luck, Carolina...
TEX?!
wait... no, this is some sort of portal fuckery...
BUT ALSO HOLY FUCK, TEX!
ohh
oh god
They were all there.
All of them. If only for a second...
"On break: Will return in FUCK YOU"
beautiful
wait a minute
Oh come on.
Oh come on.
Oh. Come. On.
what
the fuck
is this bullshit
what the fuck
long sigh of giving up in the background from me.
I give up.
I officially give up what hope for mental sanity I had regained the past few seasons. Because... fuck it.
and back to bingeing after watching some of season one with my family
also thinking about how much shit changes... just, in general. wow.
Hey, um, Santa... if all that alien tech was so important.. why the fuck was a sword left out in the middle of goddamn nowhere where any old idiot could stumble upon it and claim it as their own?
I mean, not saying that that didn't turn out in this case butttt
why?
Anya-Today at 2:40 PM
Okayyy
I think I've procrastinated long enough
back to watching
what the fuck
THERE'S MORE THAN ONE "DEFINITELY NOT A KEYBLADE"?!
...Okay, there may be too many temples.
I mean...
one for interior decorating?!
wait a minute...
we need to get to the communication one. ASAP.
jesus fucking christ
That purge thing... thank fuck Tucker is the only one with a "not-keyblade* right now.
OH FUCK
WOOHOO, ENERGY SHIELD!
...oh no,
oh no
I was going to hope for them to be alright but... they don't need it.
...wha?
ohhhh fuck.
fuck
fucking hell
oh fuck
Anya-Today at 3:16 PM
Episode 10 and things... are gonna get worrying. I have a feeling things'll get bad.
...were you going to say something, @Damntastic Despair?(edited)
Damntastic Despair-Today at 3:16 PM
no, accidentially tapped the keyboard as I was sitting down
Anya-Today at 3:16 PM
aaah
rip
that was awesome
...oh no.
I have a bad, bad feeling about all this.
Oh god no.
...WHAT?!
DOYLE GOT THE OTHER SWORD?!
OKAY SURE
AT LEAST IT ISN'T FELIX
.....DOC?!
OH MY GOD
HOW THE FUCK
WHERE THE FUCK HAVE YOU BEEN?!
y'all are assholes.
Doc... you alri---what the fuck
I
NO
O'MALLEY?!
NONONONO
FUCK THAT SHIT
I THOUGHT WE WERE DONE WITH HIM IN THE CHRONICLES
...I just
why
oh shit
Aahaha! Wooo!
OH MY GOD, IT WAS SLOMO FOR A SECOND!
Oh great, we're going to get tailed by Locus. Wash, did you really have to?
Sooooo... I'm just going to accept Doc as having O'Malley as an actual split personality now. I'll just... accept that.
And... I agree with Emily. They are, indeed, one of the most fascinating groups of individuals I'll ever have the pleasure of meeting.
you guys are the other group(edited)
oh fuck
OH YEAH!
oh no
oh no
CAROLINA
oh god no
nononono
...they'll be fine, right?
T...they have to be, both of them.
friendly reminder that... well, I don't think people remember the whole... can't use it unless you were the first person to activate it thing when it comes to the swords.
ohhhh
oh that's bad.
that's... we're fucked.
Oh, hey, thank fuck. Of course you remember the rules of the sword and its pickiness about who uses it.
Anya-Today at 4:00 PM
OH THANK GOD, EPSILON AND CAROLINA ARE BOTH ALRIGHT!
No. The mercenaries do not. They won't if we keep Doyle from dying, or, if Doyle does die, we get the sword to someone we can trust with it first.
KIMBALL, SHUT.
JUST... JUST SHUT.
THAT SITUATION WENT ONE OF THE BETTER WAYS IT COULD FOR US.
THE MERCENARIES HAVE A SWORD THAT DOESN'T WORK. THEY DON'T KNOW IT DOESN'T WORK. AND WE PREVENTED FURTHER LOSS OF LIVE DURING THAT BATTLE.
WE DID WHAT WE COULD.
SO. JUST. SHUT. FOR. NOW.
well... shit.
...when did this become a sitcom?
you know... I am this close to, after the war is over, shoving some of the Feds and Rebels in a box canyon in the middle of nowhere so that maybe, maybe, they'll learn to get along with the only other fucking people in the neighborhood. It's worked before!
...oh.
Oh god.
Carolina, you saw them all... oh.
Oh look, seems Felix doesn't like how Energy Swords work.
big shocker.
best bubbles-Today at 4:23 PM
Heh
Shocker
Energy sword
I get it
Anya-Today at 4:23 PM
um
That wasn't meant to be a pun.
And... if it was going to have any validity to it as a pun, it'd be more than just a random energy sword.
It'd be an energy sword/key that shoots lightning.
Why?
Because rule of fucking cool.
...oh shit.
oh, this is going to be a trainwreck.
...oh. oh wow.
i was... not expecting that.
that's like... digging up and breaking some probably very old emotional scars.
oof.
Woo, actual, once and for all confirmation that the Meta is fucking dead.
okay, I don't see either of the generals, so I'm just going to assume that the counseling sessions has become one for the Blood Gulch Crew alone.
oh, wait, no, they're still here.
ohhh boyyy
here we go.
again.
What?
oh no.
We're under attack!
OH FUCK
..what?
Go on.
We're evacuating Armonia. I can see the logic behind that, actually.
Ohhhhh
Ahahahahahaha!
...what?
Doyle... what are you doing?
Oh.
Oh god.
Anya-Today at 5:00 PM
THANK GOD FOR PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION INDEED!
Damntastic Despair-Today at 5:00 PM
Oh man, you're on the city attack
that's fun
Anya-Today at 5:01 PM
oh shit
ha!
oh... shit.
oh...
oh no
NO
OH GOD
OH GOD OH FUCK
ahahahaah
OH THANK FUCK
EVERYONE'S ALRIGHT!
...well, almost everyone
...We're back at Crash Site Bravo.
fuck...
no
no
FUCK
HE HAS THE SWORD
FUCKING HELL
fuckkkkkk
oh, that's... actually good to know, because if we got a bunch of people both off the planet and in the temple... while we got Felix, Locus, and the chairman outside...
Um... so what is our plan? I know you guys are keeping it vague, and that's cool and all but
I wanna know
oh god, this speech is screwed.
That... that was a good speech, alright. A damn good speech.
So, now it's time.
Let's go.
And I see we're starting by re-activating that alien technology.
AHAHAHAHAHAHA
OH MY GOD!
WOOOOHOOOOOOOO
IS THAT AN ALIEN TANK?!
WASH!
CAROLINA
SHIT
SHITSHITSHIIIIIIIT
phew
hahahahaha!
oh my god! That's awesome!
Oh great. Felix and Locus lived.
I'd like to call bullshit.
On to Episode 19!
Oh... hey! I just realized something!
Episodes 18 and 19 of Season 13 are references to Season 3!
Well, the names of the episodes, at least
Ohhhh shit.
WE GOT MORE COMPANY!
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh fuck
Yeah, we want to get on transmitting that fucking message, all right!
Anya-Today at 6:00 PM
...huh. who knew
...Huh?
...Whaaaat?
Hahahaha.
Oh. My. God.
Is he dead?
WHAT
Okay, yeah, Felix is dead and... oh shit.
Locus has the other sword now.
Ha. Thanks, asshole.
Yeah. I think I've seen enough mercenaries for the next... millennia.
And the message is being sent!
...Blood Gulch?!
Home?
Sister?! Holy shit!
Damntastic Despair-Today at 6:10 PM
Sister, the girl we haven't seen for... 7 seasons now?
Anya-Today at 6:10 PM
Yeah.
I almost forgot she exists.
Damntastic Despair-Today at 6:11 PM
I never forgot
Anya-Today at 6:12 PM
We've done it. We won.
HOLY CRAP, A SHIP ALREADY?!
...oh. fuck. me.
Damntastic Despair-Today at 6:13 PM
Hargrove's not taking his loss lying down
Anya-Today at 6:15 PM
Clearly not.
This is going to... I don't know how it's going to go, actually.
...One final push, huh? Let's give it all we've got.
I agree with Grif. This is fucking bullshit.
WE HAVE AN AIRSHIP!
WOO
Thank you so much, FILSS.
SHIT
Thanks, O'Malley!
...Is that... Tex's helmet?
Oh god.
Wha?
AHAHAHAHA
GRIF HAS THE KNIFLE BACK!
...Huh?
Why are we bringing out Maine's old armor? Sure, it has all the enhancements, but what are we going to use those for?
Ohhhhhhhhhhh
Ahahahahaha!
WHAHAHAHA!
Oh... I love you all too.
...what?
Epsilon... Church? What are you about to do?
NO@
NO, EPSILON, YOU CAN'T
PLEASE
NO
Wanderer of the Shade-Today at 6:28 PM
hugs Anya
Damntastic Despair-Today at 6:28 PM

Anya-Today at 6:28 PM
p-please
Damntastic Despair-Today at 6:28 PM
You've hit the most powerful and tragic scene in RvB
Anya-Today at 6:28 PM
whatever you're doing
stop
I'm begging you
best bubbles-Today at 6:29 PM
hugs ;;
Anya-Today at 6:29 PM
NO
OH GOD NO
EPSILON
NO
Damntastic Despair-Today at 6:30 PM
"In the end, they just have to have faith. Ain't that a bitch?"
While I think Season 10 as a whole is better to Season 13, The End is my favourite RvB episode and the one that hits me in the gut every single time I rewatch it
Wanderer of the Shade-Today at 6:32 PM
Church.. ;~;
Anya-Today at 6:33 PM
I mean... knowing there's a 15th season, I know they make it out alright... maybe. But... oh god. If I didn't know that... I'd be worried that they all die there.
Guys...
oh god.
Epsilon, you fucking stupid piece of shit, how dare you leave them.
WHY?!
Damntastic Despair-Today at 6:33 PM
Faith
Wanderer of the Shade-Today at 6:34 PM
internal screeching of pain
Anya-Today at 6:35 PM
oh god
Damntastic Despair-Today at 6:36 PM
Season 14 mostly cuts back on these big emotional moments
15 as well, though it's far less comedy focused than 14
Anya-Today at 6:36 PM
It's an anthology, right? Season 14, I mean.
best bubbles-Today at 6:36 PM
Mhmm
Anya-Today at 6:36 PM
I dunno what the fuck is happening with Season 15.
best bubbles-Today at 6:37 PM
Season 14 provides both its own mini stories, backstories, side stories and fun stuff
Like a rap battle and a death battle : P
Wanderer of the Shade-Today at 6:37 PM
I started 15...
Anya-Today at 6:37 PM
backstories, did you say?
Wanderer of the Shade-Today at 6:37 PM
I've got a bad feeling about 15
Anya-Today at 6:39 PM
...I still can't believe it.
Wow.
He... he can't be... Epsilon's gone.
He's gone
no
ugh
Wanderer of the Shade-Today at 6:46 PM
hugs
Anya-Today at 6:47 PM
hugs back
I feel this weird... emptiness, almost.
I'm expecting the tears to come but... they're failing me.
2/16/18
Anya-Today at 10:49 AM
okay so
Time to begin the season that I'm honestly looking forward to the most! It should be a nice sort of breather episode after... after all that happened.
It occurs to me this is the longest season yet, at 24 episodes.
...Hmmmm, the intro clip... that was great!
We returned to HCE graphics and... well, I'm sorry, I just.
It was great.
This Anthology Season... it's going to be wonderful
Um... Dammit, Grif!
Anya-Today at 11:01 AM
LMAO
So... what I just watched was one of the various times Epsilon was going through a memory version of Blood Gulch! That... that makes sense! Somehow!
oh of course it ends on a shot of the storage unit because fuck me
...Whuh?
VIC?!
Okay, this is interesting all right.
Okay, sure!
WHAT THE HELL IS THAT?!
CAROLINA?!
...NORTH?!
WYOMING?!
SOUTH?!
YORK?!
479ER?!
WASH!
OH SHIT, WE'RE BEING FOLLOWED... AND THE EPISODE'S ALMOST OVER... FUCK
This Season is going to be fucking awesome
Soooo
Vic's going to be our narrator now! That's cool!
So now we're going to see why they were all there, I take it?
I'm up for that!
OH GOD, SOMEONE WHO ISN'T A FREELANCER WHO CAN SHOOT!
SHIT
Sooo... the guy I've never heard of before is called Hammer. I don't think he has much of a chance to live through this.
I!
I'm pretty sure the reason your CO put you guys on this mission is because... he's pretty sure it's like a suicide mission.
That may be my cynical pessimist of a view. But I stand by it.
Annnnnd
Hammer's gonna die.
SON OF A BITCH!
pfffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffft
ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
ahahaha
They're gonna get transferred to Blood Gulch~
...huh?
WAIT A FUCKING MINUTE
FLOWERS?!
WHAT THE FUCK
...Hmmm.
oh my god
his name actually is Sarge!
I know, Flowers. But... oh. I think I see what you're doing here. You need to make sure that the least likely harm will come to Alpha. What better way to ensure that than placing him in the middle of a box canyon in the middle of nowhere with a bunch of idiots unlikely to actually get any fighting done?
I'm not even sure if I'm being sarcastic or not.
So now we're looking for people to join the Blue Team stationed at Blood Gulch... where the fuck is Tucker? He'll show up, I know he will.
There he is!
Yep.
So, for our candidates to join Blood Gulch Outpost Alpha, we have Candidate One, who is actually competent seeming, Candidate Two, who seems a little too airheaded and conceited, and Candidate Three... fuck it. Candidate Three it is!
...oh my god.
wtf
Welp.
That's one way.
I know, Lemons. I know. At least we're sending the crazies out to a place in the middle of no-where where they'll have no impact on anything.
Ever.
At all.
Totally won't be badasses.
Definitely won't kill a couple of Freelancers and stop a fucking civil war.
Nope!
Jesus fuck, Flowers!
WTF
So... we almost have everyone that was there in the first episode. We just need Church.
Look at this!: "Captain Flowers finds the last piece to his little operation and moves it to a a quiet little box canyon in the middle of nowhere. I think everything is going to work out just fine."
Even the description is aware that nothing horribly off-plan will happen at Blood Gulch! At all! Ever!
okay, I'm done being sarcastic now.
This is going to blow up gloriously.
Hmm?
...what?
Private Jimmy?
The guy who got beat up with his own skull?
...what?!
WHAT?!
OH MY GOD
OH MY GOD
they... they fucking implanted Church into Private Jimmy's skull. They overwrit a guy's entire brain just so the Alpha AI could be hid!(edited)
JESUS FUCK
...what the fuck
insert the mcfucking aspirin dose, we need to start making the plan fail, dammit
Well, I know how it'll effect the relationship. The body will end up dead, and the AI will believe he's a ghost.
And it's begun.
pfffffffffffffffffffffft
..
...
...Church?
CHURCH!
I... I just need to say this: Never have I been so amused yet so saddened by seeing the pieces line up.
Anya-Today at 12:00 PM
OH HEY!
pffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffft
pffffffffffffffffffffffffffft
just wait a little while, Tucker.
You'll get a unique armor color soon enough.
omg
They're talking about the Vegas Quadrant!
aaaaaaaaa
d-did I accidentally start watching the bizarro universe episode?
because... nope!
Not right! This isn't right!
...?
OH COME ON
"Maybe up to 14 seasons, if we're lucky."
OH COME ON
suuuuuure
...wait. Flowers does die, but I seriously doubt that any Freelancers have ever been sent to Blood Gulch.
unless the Freelancer is codenamed Texas but eh
He tripped over a cord.
....what?!
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Him tripping caused the computer records to get scrambled... and, well, we all know the story from here.
And to hammer it in, we get Blood Gulch Blues playing at the end of the episode.
Aaaand just in case we were taking all this too seriously, there is no way I'm not going to bust out laughing at the mere description of episode 5
Yes, I have heard of the multiverse theory, and I honestly believe in it.
oh fuck, don't make me doubt my own reality like that! I don't want to be a figment of some kid's imagination!
oh my god
I can
I can't take this episode seriously
even for a second!
lmfao
...what?
what is that?!
jesus fuck
That... that is a messed up kid.
uhh
uhhhhhhh
jesus fUCK
OH GOD
...also, how does a kid get hydrochloric acid?!
OH GOD
Also... I just... Grif's reaction. "Meh, I'm sure he'll show up again in three years."
I mean.
In canon, that's about what happened, yeah.
omg
...you done yet, Simmons?
woo!
SHIT, CAT
...I... I don't think the cat cares.
oh shit
oh shit
ROOMBA!
Thank you, Jen Brown!
HOLY SHIT, GUYS!
what
Hi, Donut!
oh fuck
oh fuck
oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck
OH THANK FUCK
WAIT A MINUTE
THE KID'S NAME IS MALCOLM HARGROVE?!
awww
OH SHIT
SON OF A BITCH!
Okay but. Is alternate universe Malcolm's brother the Director? Why does he have lego versions of the BGC? Is Allison like, the cute girl next door for them or something?(edited)
These are legitimate questions.
Anya-Today at 1:01 PM
On to the next episode!
Yeah, you're right. There are still a bunch of Reds and Blues--all over the universe!
...And it's not surprising that it turns out they're all idiots.
...Wait a minute. We've been here before. I think...
omg
these guys are idiots! I think we're going to get along juust fine.
Unit FH57... got it.
...huh?
What's the alarm going off for?
OH COME ON
EVERYTHING JUST COMES BACK TO THE FUCKING CANYON, DOESN'T IT?!
lmfao
IT'S THE FIRST EPISODE!
sooooo... the chances of Unit FH57 living just dropped, sad to say.
I mean, it's kind of obvious now that they seem like they want to get involved with the plot.
And I don't remember them showing up... ever.
filled with the glorious number of two blue armored space marines.
Neither of whom have taken a level in badass yet.
If y'all weren't doomed by canon, I'd like your chances.
...and then they just stay there, watching the Blood Gulch Chronicles as it happens?
Please?
pretty please?
...what the?
what?
Oh great. They're in Blood Gulch. You three better not fuck this shit up, I STG
You. Will. Not.
The Blues in this canyon are protected by plot armor and the fact that they're around for Season 13.
13.
For that matter, so are the Reds in this canyon.
...hey, Unit FH57... you mind fucking off and doing... anything else?
Please?
...Drag, you might want to start running.
no.
Don't kidnap Sheila. Don't.
...what
...what
...CABOOSE?!
OH MY GOD
ahahahahahahaha
OH MY GOD
IT'S SET LIKE... JUST AFTER CHURCH GETS SHOT
OH MY GOD
...Yeah, the graphics for the FH57 group look so different compared to the Blood Gulch Crew right now.
OH THANK GOD
Awwwwww
That was sweet!
wait what
Oh fucking
SON OF A BITCH
WOO, A PSA!
Wait a fucking minute... live action?!
OH MY GOD
omg
It was a trailer for an in-universe movie! Maybe... who knows?
Something tells me that the next three episodes are gonna get... serious.
Anya-Today at 2:02 PM
oh
oh, it's Felix and Locus.
HOLY SHIT, THIS IS WHAT THEY LOOK LIKE UNDER THE HELMETS!
DO YOU KNOW HOW RARE IT IS TO GET THAT QUESTION ANSWERED?
OH MY GOD
OH MY GOD, LOCUS'S NAME IS SAM?!
HOLY SHIT
SON OF A BITCH
oh my god
oh my god
WOW
Huh?
Siris? Who the fuck are you and why do I feel like you're doomed?
Oh yeah, this is why I like Felix!
...huh?
oh fuck
yeah, okay, just personal opinion here but... can we kill this Ruben guy?
oh my god
Wow, Locus. Just... wow.
I am amazed at how skinny Felix is. I mean... wow. That is a lean motherfucker right there.
ha. of course the sun comes up.
that's cliche.
Oh my god, Felix and I agreed on something!
Anya-Today at 3:01 PM
Well, there's limos now for you guys! There's always a bright side!
oh fuck, I think I may actually like Felix a little bit now.
On to the next episode!
Hmmmm, I'm interested in seeing this propaganda.
omg
Project Freelancer sucks at propaganda.
fucking up lives? wonderful at that. Propaganda? bitch this is some of the worst I've seen.
Oh come on. We couldn't have done the Propo shit anywhere else?
Why are we involving Blood Gulch into this?
sigh
Oh hey... this takes place just before they're all transferred, then.
Oh, hey. That's nice, actually. It seems like they had got some type of getting along with each other after the chronicles finished up. That's... That's really nice to know.
yeah.
oh my god
pfffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffft
...how the fuck did you get all of that footage?!
I have no idea what I just watched.
TIME FOR A DEATH BATTLE!
Oh my god. All three of those questions seem like something people at PF would ask. and probably did ask
Oh, hey! I've seen a few Death Battles before... does this mean that our normal announcers are being replaced by Grif and Simmons?
Because that's cool, I like that.
Heyo, Caboose!
wait what
Oh, heyyy, there's the death battle guys!
Ohhhhh, this is going to be cool!
THAT WAS AWESOME
Episode 14 and... Time for yet another set of idiot soldiers!
ohhhh
they're all colorblind to a degree, aren't they?
Yep.
well fuck, they all died.
and for no goddamn reason!
Okay, I'm a little over halfway into the season, I think it's about time I stop watching this and start working on my own AU some more.
2/17/18
Anya-Today at 2:49 PM
so
I believe I have 10 more episodes to watch now in Season 14. Let's go!
No, wait, 9 to go, actually!
what
Uhhh. What?
best bubbles-Today at 2:50 PM
Which one you on now?
Anya-Today at 2:50 PM
15
episode 15
and... huh. okay then.
best bubbles-Today at 2:51 PM
Caboose's guide to making friends?(edited)
Anya-Today at 2:51 PM
yes
best bubbles-Today at 2:51 PM
Good ^^
Anya-Today at 2:54 PM
whuh
I... I was not expecting the sudden feels
i was not expecting the feels from the last 30 seconds.
wtf, rooster teeth?
that wasn't quite okay
time for episode 16!
"lord satan von killsalot"
OH MY GOD!
WE GET TO SEE WHAT O'MALLEY WAS GOING THROUGH WHEN HE WAS POSSESSING EACH OF THE BGC!
WOOHOO!
Anya-Today at 3:00 PM
It seems like they're reusing some footage for the parts where we aren't focusing on O'Malley. I like that.
"pop goes the omnicidal AI"
omg
pffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffft
good to see O'Malley likes being in Caboose's head just as much as I do. Because... why?
best bubbles-Today at 3:06 PM
"Hello. I am agent washingtub."
idk why, but that's always hilarious to me : P
Anya-Today at 3:06 PM
somewhere in the background, there's a weird mix of crying and laughter
i mean
it is kind of funny
oh dear god
lmfao
pfffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffft
and now it's time for Church's head. This should be interesting, seeing as... well, you know.
best bubbles-Today at 3:10 PM
It's interesting going back and seeing the past events with the knowledge that Church is the Alpha AI
Anya-Today at 3:11 PM
yeah, it is. especially watching the first few seasons, knowing all the twists about Church that would come later. It... it's an experience, all right.
best bubbles-Today at 3:12 PM
And the knowledge that his original flesh container was Jimmy
Anya-Today at 3:12 PM
Mmmhmm.
And the episode finishes off with an "Oh fuck."
I have never seen a more accurate description of what it feels like watching the episode from an audience point of view the first time around. you know, the viewpoint where all we see is the guys being possessed in succession and what results from that?
The next one is called "Get Bent"... and I have a weird feeling about this one.
the casual-ness with which Vic spoils major plot points amazes me. I love it.
best bubbles-Today at 3:18 PM
I find it really funny that Church, Vic, and Lopez are all voiced by Burnie
Anya-Today at 3:18 PM
wait what
best bubbles-Today at 3:18 PM
Yep
Anya-Today at 3:18 PM
huh.
Who knew.
And... well, I'm mildly curious what Vic means by "can't remember everything right".
let's go
...oh no
oh no
LMFAO
Epsilon... how do you misremember the genders of the entire red team?!
oh dear god in heaven why
no
whyyy
epsilon... you done fucked up with this iteration.
this is... this is so fucking wrong
I just
wrong
I need bleach too.
OH MY GOD
I TAKE IT BACK, THIS MAY ACTUALLY BE KINDA COOL
oh god no
never mind.
this is, indeed, sick and wrong.
best bubbles-Today at 3:26 PM
it's wrick and song
Anya-Today at 3:28 PM
...what was that?!
oh come on
REALLY, EPSILON?! REALLY?!
...okay, so Church is officially a bisexual AI. Nothing anyone says will change my mind on that.
okay, let's try that again.
...huh?
best bubbles-Today at 3:29 PM
A-bi
Anya-Today at 3:29 PM
pffffffffffffffffffffffffffft
OH NO
EPSILON, SERIOUSLY?!
SERIOUSLY?!
WHY THE FUCK DID YOU REMEMBER YOURSELF AS A GIRL THIS TIME?!
OH MY GOD
well
that was a thing
a mildly traumatizing thing, but still a thing.
On to episode 18!
...tejano folk fusion, you say?
I don't suppose you mean something like the warthog theme song for this very show?
Okay, a musical episode... this should be interesting!
i can't watch this
i got
i don't think i even got 15 seconds into the actual video without laughing
no
I can't watch this
i
omg
oh thank god, someone actually talking!
...and there went my hope.
oh, wait, no, it's back!
...it's not the Warthog.
why?
is it even worth it? It's just a rocket launcher!
It can't even play bad mexican polka music!
whut
okay, my hopes are dying again
holy shit, i started singing along!
Tucker... you will never get the sniper rifle for more than a minute.
oh great, Church's singing a ballad now.
And, please, don't say die when referring to yourself. It gives me ptsd.
...please. stop bringing up the fact versions of you keep dying.
Because Command hates you all. and technically, Church is running this army. kinda.
nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnope
I refuse.
i resent this.
i resent this with every fiber of my being.
the fuck am i watching?!
...wha?!
WHAT?!
that is not how any of the Blood Gulch Chronicles went, Donut.
No, Doyle, we were completely song and dance numberless. Thank god.
that was... that was mildly scarring yet also funny at the same time.
like the first five seasons, when i think about it...
time for episode 19!
it was a transitionary period, is what you're getting at, right?
Anya-Today at 4:00 PM
Yeah.
The episode description: "Everyone talks about the great adventures of the Reds and Blues, but have you ever stopped to think about what they did in their down time? It's really... really stupid."
I am even more excited now.
Oh my god. They started having movie nights?!
omg
oh god
only one movie? In the entire fucking canyon?!
JESUS FUCK, THAT'S TORTURE
ohhhh no.
welp. we lost our only real source of entertainment, folks, i hope we're happy with ourselves today.
i am laughing my ass off
Grif just gives no fucking shits. Church is at least trying!
oh my god.
that. was. terrible!
I could see a documentary on Blood Gulch working! Of course, you'd need to go into backstory on why the two sides of a war are getting along so well, and why Church talks about him having died and become a ghost, but I think I could see it!
in fact, i've fucking watched it! It's called Red Vs Blue!
wtf
i feel insulted!
very insulted!(edited)
NOW IT'S TIME FOR A RAP BATTLE!
WOOOOHOOO!
Hey, I think w--yeah, we've run the arc words into the ground.
Yeah, honestly I think that is the question plaguing all the RvB fans: Red Team or Blue Team?
I'm still Red Team for life
omg
"Why did we let Achievement Hunter write this stuff?"
HERE WE GO
WAIT, WHAT?!
FELIX, LOCUS?!
WHAT ARE YOU TWO DOING HERE?!
best bubbles-Today at 4:31 PM
Chiming in on the rhyme
Anya-Today at 4:31 PM
I have no mcfucking idea who won that one.
best bubbles-Today at 4:31 PM
"When you can count your IQ on a single hand"
That is a serious burn
Anya-Today at 4:32 PM
Also, a lot of the insults on all sides had some points to them.
Hence, why it's hard for me to choose.
...is it okay if I skip over a few episodes? Because I want to get to RvB vs Rooster Teeth.
imma take the silence as a yes!
or should I not?
Damntastic Despair-Today at 4:36 PM
There’s no order to 14, except with two story arcs
So skip around if you want
Anya-Today at 4:36 PM
wooo!
Aaand we're back to talking about multiverse theory, huh? Hmm, this is interesting.
A theory about a universe where all the shit the Blood Gulch Crew has been through is just a cartoon? I can see it.
no, really. I'm in that fucking universe. I can actually see it.
Saaaaarge... can you please not build a plot device?
Something's wrong with this teleporter... we might want to start running!
oh.
Hi Caboose!
wait what
oh, hey, suddenly live-action!
I think Geoff is drunk.
Very drunk.
burnie, i'm not even sure where you were taking that analogy any more.
3 dozen pivotal new characters for the next story arc?
oh fuck me.
The Machinima death switch...
oh boy.
and back to the BGC!
OH GOD
THIS IS GONNA SUCK
the death switch is hit, I take it... but hey, Tucker's going to be in this episode too! Cool!
well, apparently. Maybe not...
OH SHIT, THE XBOX!
wh-
what the fuck?!
ahahahahahaha!
AHAHAHAHAHA!
OH'
MY
GOD
...I BLAME BURNIE AND GEOFF!
And the rooster teeth employees have my response to this scenario: running and screaming.
Like any sane person.
this is ridiculous and I love it.
best bubbles-Today at 4:58 PM
You know what's really amazing that I didn't even realize at first?
Those aren't guys in suits
That's all CG
Anya-Today at 4:59 PM
...Yeah, that seems about right. No way the armor would so shiny otherwise.
Anya-Today at 5:06 PM
And Geoff's reaction to seeing the guy he voices in real life is also incredibly realistic.
no. Gus... just turn around.
well, that could've gone better.
awww. I have to stop for now.
pfffffffffffffffffffft
And behind Burnie is Simmons and Grif--I mean, Gus and Geoff, freaking the fuck out.
Burnie is taking Lopez showing up quite well, actually.
Oh, wait, no, there's Simmons and Grif.
ohhh... sorry, Burnie.
TUCKER!
YOU DID SHOW UP IN THIS EPISODE AFTER ALL!
Wait, Barb appears in this?
oh my god!
pfffffffffffffffffffffffft
That was beautiful!
Oh, hey there, Vic.
...I think I found my favorite speech in the show.
I love that episode.
...now I have to wonder if anyone's made a fanfic or something about Tucker working at RT?
I mean. Just saying.
2/24/18
Anya-Today at 1:54 PM
Okay so. Time to get a start on Season 15.
I've been putting this off long enough, let's go.
Let's start with the trailer and already I'm disappointed in them.
...that was awesome.
...blood gulch?
Home?
What?
Time for episode one and fuck. my dog is barking because of fuck knows what
ugh.
...............
.......................what.
Anya-Today at 2:00 PM
WHAT?!
WHAT THE FUCK
wait... These guys aren't the Blood Gulch Crew.
I just... There'd be no reason for "Church" to take off his helmet, a robot probably can't detach their own head on purpose.
Even with all the levels in badass they've taken by now, they'd still be snarking.
And we're missing a couple of people.
The signs are all fucking there.
best bubbles-Today at 2:02 PM
This is not right
So therefor
It is left
Anya-Today at 2:02 PM
...
Excuse me, I
best bubbles-Today at 2:03 PM
I just woke up ^^;
Anya-Today at 2:03 PM
I'm trying to be rational here. Also, good morning.
...This Dylan person. I think like her.
Oh my god, these acronyms and her quicktalking skills. Lady, can you make me fall for you any faster?
...RTAA? Okay, that's a reference to Rooster Teeth Animated Adventures.
Oh shit. I hope she's good at not dying.
Clearly, she either is, or she has good friends.
No. I want my shit about the Blood Gulch Crew. The monster-fighting teens can suck it.
..oh my god.
We're going home.
Blood Gulch.
Episode 2 time.
Jax, huh? You hummed the episode intro theme for Blood Gulch and called it part of a soundtrack for the canyon? I already love you.(edited)
Oh god. He's an intern. Welp, he's gonna get traumatized at some point, sorry kiddo!
best bubbles-Today at 2:15 PM
Poor interns never come out unscathed
Anya-Today at 2:17 PM
Wha-heh? I know the angle that's coming, we're panning up to the top of one of the bases, I stg if
Oh thank god.
...you know... if you really want to know... I could forward you the web show, Dylan.
Like, I've been watching it.
SISTER?!
Kaikaina? That's your first name? Huh. Okay.
best bubbles-Today at 2:20 PM
Yep
Grif's family is hawaiian
Anya-Today at 2:20 PM
Huh. Who knew.
best bubbles-Today at 2:21 PM
What's funny though
Kaikaina means "younger sibling of the same gender"
Anya-Today at 2:22 PM
...huh. who knew.
best bubbles-Today at 2:22 PM
Learning a lot this season : P
Anya-Today at 2:23 PM
I agree with Sister here. I think. There's something up here.
Heyo there, Vic!
omg. Vic's been editing the footage he has into a version of the Chronicles.
Enjoy watching the Blood Gulch Chronicles, you two.
wait what
why the fuck is there ominous music
...who the fuck are you.
...it doesn't end on the usual subscribe to the channel plea.
instead we get the blood gulch blues.
Episode 3 and... where are we now?
Well, the AI fragments part is entirely legitimate, I can tell you that much. We learned about those after the haze dream that was the Chronicles.
oh my god
the mother of invention
real names? for all the freelancers?
what the fuck is Wash's last name, tell me, lady, I need to know!
best bubbles-Today at 2:34 PM
What if that is his name?
David Washington?
Anya-Today at 2:35 PM
Then I'd be amazed at the laziness that Project Freelancer had.
best bubbles-Today at 2:36 PM
They were too cheap to get a bunch of real AIs and they thought torturing one to get more was the next logical option
Anya-Today at 2:36 PM
...true.
best bubbles-Today at 2:36 PM
And they acquiesced to Carolina's demand for two AIs(edited)
Anya-Today at 2:37 PM
...yeah.
best bubbles-Today at 2:37 PM
And they didn't even tell the Freelancers what their mission really was
This group is not exactly known for its smart decisions
Anya-Today at 2:37 PM
I know.
best bubbles-Today at 2:38 PM
Oh, and let us not forget blowing up Florida to keep one of their agents under cover : P
Anya-Today at 2:38 PM
Never forget Florida. I just... I feel like that giving an agent a code name that is their fucking last name crosses a line of stupidity that's just... stupidity.
best bubbles-Today at 2:39 PM
But that's why it's perfect. It's so stupid that no one would expect it
Anya-Today at 2:40 PM
sigh
heh?
Ummmmmmmmm... Jax, I think this is the time for you to... leave now. Go back, turn around.
Jax. go.
The answer is simple, Jax. YOU RUN!
GOD, HOW CAN THAT NOT GET THROUGH TO YOU?!
oh thank fuck.
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, JAX, JUST SAY THEY'RE HERE
Anya-Today at 3:00 PM
wait... hold up.
Gulch... prototype?
hold the fuck up here.
And time for an action scene, fitting enough.
Here's an idea. YOU RUN.
SCREW THE CAMERAS, LIVING IS IMPORTANT, MORE IMPORTANT, I MIGHT ADD
oh my god.
Jax, no.
...huh?
Thundersnow? That... that sounds like a weird weather condition, alright.
Dylan. No.
This is a stupid plan.
Do not.
And thank you for confirming my thoughts, Dylan. That is not the Blood Gulch Crew.
Huh?
best bubbles-Today at 3:06 PM
Thundersnow is really cool
Anya-Today at 3:06 PM
Oh fucknuggets, the guy we saw in the ominous closing of the previous episode.
Oh great. The edge of a cliff.
If you two die, I will not forgive you.
...huh. Thanks, weird guy. And yes, I'm curious how Dylan knows that those... people, aren't the BGC.
...screw it, mystery guy, I'm calling you unicorn head until we find out your name.
...huh? WHY THE FUCK IS ANYONE BLOCKADING CHORUS?! FUCKING HELL, UNSC
Also... there has to be some significance with the use of Blood Gulch Blues in the outros. I just... it's this gut feeling I have.
Oh my god! Smith! Bitters!
But also... oh fuck. Please, Jax, don't have died this early on. If you did die, please turn out to be an AI so we can make ghost jokes again.
Palomo! Jensen!
Thank god, Jax will be fine.
What.
Dylan. What the fuck.
Also, Kimball's the president of Chorus now, good for her!
...Messenger?
It's time to find them. Time to find the Blood Gulch Crew.
...when the fuck did this become the last few scenes of The Force Awakens?
FUCK
CABOOSE! YOU OKAY, MAN?
Oh my god! Guys!
And to no-one's surprise, Caboose is perfectly fine.
It occurs to me I haven't seen these guys so lighthearted in a while.
WASH! CAROLINA! ...Of course you're the only two who are slightly serious right now.
..the temple? Oh wait... you didn't do something with the procreation one, did you?
Please, please tell me you didn't, or so help me, guys
Oh come on.
pffffffffffft
lmfao
Damntastic Despair-Today at 3:36 PM
Of course the procreation temple was activated, Tucker was there
Anya-Today at 3:36 PM
Fair enough.
Damntastic Despair-Today at 3:37 PM
You gotta wonder though, who slept with who? Besides Grif and Simmons, of course
Anya-Today at 3:38 PM
pffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffft
These idiots. I love them with all my heart and soul.
Damntastic Despair-Today at 3:40 PM
How could you not?
Also did you watch the remaining season 14 episodes? Specifically the freelancer ones?
Anya-Today at 3:41 PM
...shit.
I knew there was something I forgot to do.
I'll finish this episode, then go back and watch those, okay?

Oh.
He... he's really gone, then.
DAMMIT, EPSILON!

I can't believe he sacrificed his life to save everyone

hey, come on, it's okay for me to have fucking feelings, okay?
I get why he did it, I just...
I wish that there was another way to win that battle.

what?
what?
Church? CHURCH?!
best bubbles-Today at 3:45 PM
Church is in session
Anya-Today at 3:46 PM
holy shit
I... I'm not sure whether or not I can believe it. The message... the message said that the Church asking for help was the Alpha.
I...
holy shit
I... holy shit. I need to rewatch that scene, just to be sure.
I just
holyshit
okay, so after... that, I'm going to take a quick little... break, to scream.

I'm going to watch the last three episodes I need to of S14, then try and get back to progressing S15.
Time for Episode 21.
Poppet-Today at 12:31 PM
Project Freelancer had a goal once???
Who knew.
Oh?
Who are you?
Ohio?
Huh?!
Oh, um, hello there... Iowa!

...Really? Being genuinely good, sweet people keeps you from getting mission assignments?(edited)

Hmmm, what are they?
Oh my god, that is amazing!
AND WAIT A FUCKING MINUTE, I RECOGNIZE THAT FUCKING AREA
THAT'S THE OFFSITE STORAGE FACILITY

minute
...Hi, Georgia?
HOLY SHIT, HI GEORGIA
WHO KNEW YOU WERE MORE THAN JUST A ONE-OFF JOKE?
...Well, shit, I already hate Georgia.
That took... two lines.
That is a fucking record.
...Ohio just called Wash "David".
...holy shit.
hholy shut
HOLY MCFUCK, A WILD SOUTH DAKOTA
I DIDN'T EVEN NOTICE YOU HERE!
pfffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff
CT...
You were so nice.
wait what
WHAT THE FUCK

WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU WANT?!
...I don't trust this.
What sort of mission is this, Price?
hmmmmmmmm
i really don't trust this.
OH HEY, HI THERE 479R!
Episode 22 time
WAIT WHAT
OH SHIT, THIS ICE PLANET ISN'T ABANDONED AND...
OH COME THE FUCK ON
YOU THINK I WOULDN'T NOTICE THIS?
hhhhhhhhhhholy shit
We got rejects from Charon Industry here as well as rejects from Project Freelancer.
holy shit
Poppet-Today at 1:00 PM
Dammit Iowa
Oh my god.
D... depending on when on the timeline this takes place...
this is the first fucking case of it.
The first fucking case of useless people being sent somewhere entirely out of the way
Where their only reason for being there is because someone else is there.
Oh my god.
Oh my god.
Wait a minute
Hey, Wash.
Oh.
Oh my god.
They didn't drop out.
Also... heh.
pfffffff
That was worth it.
And, time for Episode 23... I think I've seen this one, actually.
All it is is showing what it would take to flip a warthog in real life, plus some live-action skits at the beginning and end.
Eh, I'll watch the skits anyways.
And I'm here so... might as well watch the rest of it.
You know, sometimes I wonder how the people who voice the characters on RvB sound like their characters.
Then I hear Burnie say something and I realize it.
...holy shit.
I've finished Season 14.
Wow!
The rest of Season 15 cannot be found, since I am currently watching it semi-blind (semi because of tumblr and ao3) with my parents.
And this is the compiled version of all my pre-S16 reactions to the RvB hell-ride. Thanks for reading, hope it was entertaining.

Little Chats
Darlain has just informed Leon that the pleasant night elf male fishing in the stream is actually Balinore, saving him the intense embarrassment of flirting with a literal bear. One very awkward and mutually frustrated whine-fest later…
Darlain sighs and hands Leon popcorn as they continue watching Balinore doing wilderness things.
Leon sighs, sits down, and eats popcorn. "'S'not fair. First you, now 'im."
"Oh hush. You have like, eight folks all over you. You'll just 'ave tae settle with imagination me. She's kinkier anyway."
"Tch, you write th' books, you know damn well 'ow unbearable th' forbidden is." He thoughtfully munched a bit more popcorn. "B'sides, I kin teach anybody t'be kinky if they wanna."
She chuckles. "Well, you know yer my first choice if 'e ever mucks up this whole love thing."
"Don't lie, luv, it's not kind; we both know that's 'Enii."
"Oof, you 'ave me pegged."
"I kin accept silver medal, though, when first is that. Bloody 'ell, I'd go after 'er so fast glass'd shatter in my wake if she let me."
"Sad ya met 'er in such a terrible time in 'er life, because I bet she would."
"First time I met 'er, she was pretty clear on 'no worgen.' Dunno if 'avin' control over it changes anythin'."
"Yeah, would probably 'ave tae stick tae 'uman. Good fer you that you 'ave two gorgeous forms. And aye, kissing is big fer 'er, from my understanding. Nae the most easy thing tae do in yer other form."
"Iunno, I've met a couple filthy li'l devils 'o managed it with a 'uman mouth just f--nngh I made m'self sad. An' really 'orny."
She chuckles. "Don’t think watching Balinore fishing is gonna 'elp tha'.
"No, but at least it's fun."
"So, any candid tales from the Ambroce love life to share with the housewife friend?"
He smirks a little. "Fin'ly found a domme 'o scratched ev'ry possible itch I 'ad an' then some. 'Course, then she went an' got attached t'somebody else, an' she doesn't do open relationships."
"Aww, that’s a shame. Another o' yer friends across the factions?"
"No, actually. But she'd prolly kill me if I named 'er."
"Oof, now I’m tryin' ta guess, but I 'spose yer doin good by nae blabbin."
"It's bad enough t'be complainin', honestly, but it kills me.”
"Well, since you did me one, I 'spose I kin give somethin in return. Drogar was doin' a test drive o'a new prototype tank, and I put a new challenge tae 'is target practice by doin’ my best tae distract 'im. Missed 'alf 'is targets, I’m proud tae boast."
That gets a good belly laugh out of him. "I kin only imagine!"
"I swear, a tank, a submarine, and an airship now. Think we just 'ave giant robot on the list."
"Really? 'E seemed so enamored with a giant mechanical spider."
"Yeah, nae gonna get 'orny on top of a spider, mechanical or nae."
"Ah well, 'e's a lucky bastard anyway."
"Just as lucky a woman 'e made me." She sighs happily. “Used tae dream about this kinda life as a young'n. Family, 'usband, adventures. It's nae all been as glamorous, but... it’s still nice."
"Seems pretty glam'rous from th'outside, if tha' means anythin'."
"Being up tae yer eyeballs in baby shit fer four years does kinda lose its luster. But honestly, I see all this fer you. Already 'ave the love in yer life, everything else is just timing."
He chuckles softly. "Bein' fair, I was up t'my eyeballs in cow shit most days till I was seventeen. 'Least babies're cute. Most o'th'time, anyway." He leans his head back and looks up at the sky. "Told Vandy I love 'er. She said it back. Felt like a dick doin' it right after I got done tellin'er I was goin' t'th'tomb, but it kinda came out on its own."
She smiles, "Some folks 'ave trouble finding one person tae say that. Now it’s three. I’m 'appy fer ya." She flexes mockingly, "All the more reason fer yer amazing priestess tae see to it ya come 'ome without any ugly scars."
"Hah!" He traces a finger down the line on his eye. "Only sexy ones, hey?"
"Of course. You get a little one on the jawline, or maybe across the shoulder, well. I fear I must leave it. I’m a dedicated patron of the arts, you see."
"Maybe we'll both score big, nice cris-cross on th' stomach just 'ere." He makes the motion across his abs with the same finger.
She smiles.
"I’m glad I met you, Leon Ambroce. Yer a good friend, and a nice person tae spend a lazy summer day with."
Blinking, he ducks his head a little with a sheepish grin. "Aw."
Noticing that Balinore has now filled his cooler full of speared fish, and has now shifted back into a bear to messily snarf up his cleverly caught meal, she chuckles. "I think it’s time I walked my bear 'ome."
"B'fore 'e gets bored an' picks one of us fer a nap, prolly."
She chuckles. "I guess I’ll see ya out there, lad. Will be nice working with ya again."
"Makes thin's easier knowin' yer along fer th' ride, luv."
"Feeling's mutual, lad." She gives him a wink as she gets up and heads to Balinore.
He considers getting up, but just flops back into the grass instead. Eventually, he’d have to do something to get the image of night elf shoulders glistening in the midday sun out of his head, but for the moment, he was comfy.
(( Bit of a silly chatlog, but I figure there’s been a dearth of that lately on my blog, so why not?
@darbiebot @shedwyn @heniimagic @drogartruthhammer @vandrysse for mentions ))

Tag Thing
Nicknames: No nicknames (but I do go by Molly in games and such)
Star sign: Scorpio (also my chinese zodiac is a dragon :D )
Height:165,5cm (I think *shrug*)
Time right now: 01:39(start)
Favourite music artist: It's unusual for me to like more than a few songs pr artist lol, so I guess the ones who are the exception to that could kinda be called my favs, even if even that's a stretch for many. I do very much adore the Danish artist Kim Larsen he's like one of our national treasures. He's kinda like wierd cross between Bob Dylan, David Bowie and Elton John among others lol. So yeah I love Kim Larsen. I also love a lot of music by the danish Rasmus Seebach. I have a fondness for Backstreet Boy's second album (I think it was second, the one with the ”everybody rock your body” song (my first ever cd actually)), I really like a lot of Eminems work too; I really love most of Westlife's old works (they also did one of my top fav song of all time Flying Without Wings), I also have a fondness for some of Avril Lavign's old works. Gah let's just say my fav singers/bands off the top of my head are Kim Larsen, Westlife, Rasmus Seebach, and Yui (japanese). I listen to little bi of everything. From Fallout Boy and the occasional Lincon Park and Evanescnese; to Neon Trees, Paramore, and even those two one direction songs (best night ever, and perfect); to oldies like Dolly Parton, and Bob Dylon (yeah prolly add Dylan to fav list too). I like a few Gwen Stefani and Beyonce songs, and even a Taylor Swift songs. I also love Bruno Mars (yeah he should prolly be on the list, maybe, Iunno). I like classic musik and some opera, I like some rap, I folk songs, and country and old and some new. My fav song to listen to atm is prolly All Of You/Me by John Legend (which may just be the most romantic song I've ever heard). I DON'T like synths, and autotunes and all the horrible thing like that, which is sadly the norm in so much music today. I've very rarely seen it used well. It grates, and while some of it may be ok to dance to in a club (like the unholy racket that was crazy frog, actually kinda fun to really dance to on a sugar high) but the problem is that it's never kept there. It bombards the radio stations, which in turn, bombards shopping malls and recntly my god damn grocery stores! WTF? D: So yeah I fucking HATE modern club music! I literally hurts my ears, and stabs at my head. FUUUUCK! (sorry for the rant ^^; ) Not much for Disco, I find the majority of Elvis songs kinda boring, and I'm not much for punk. I do love a good rock song, and I have a fondness for most of the hits thats came out when I was a kid. I like exactly one Spice Girls song (three guesses which, lol) but I REALLY do like that one. I love Aqua and while Barbie Girl will always scream ultra Nostalgia my fav is Doctor Jones. The VangaBoys too, Boom Boom, and Ibiza stand out lol. Achy Brachy Heart will always be fondly smiled at, and Over My Shoulder is still one of my favs (for some inexplicable reason, despite its subject matter being sad, it never fails to make me smile. Must be the upbeat melody, lol.) The danish band Shubidua was played to redicluous levels in my early teens, someone was always putting it on, lol. (That and Kim Larsen.) Their silly, silly songs made us laugh and smile and sing along. Also the Danish song Videoman. I Swear by All 4 One evokes memories of when my parents were still in love and not estraged divorcees, (while I don't regret them splitting in hindsight, no kid likes going through a divorce. Let alone moving a country away and leaving one parent behind. *forget ”every other weekend” I saw my dad 2-4 weeks a year if that.*) that song reminds me of simpler times (not that I long for them, I like my life now, but still). The Soop Shoop Song aka In His Kiss by Betty Everett is and always will be awesome. Las Ketchup was rediculous but fun. Yeah I could go on, but I think that's beyond enough lol. Sorry long babble is long. XD
Song stuck in my head: Can't remember for a blessed moment and I want to keep it that way lol.
Last movie watched: Uh. Prolly a drama or some scifi movie.
Last TV show watched: Underground, Handmaid's Tale, American Gods, so many more. (Also, Game Of Thrones needs to start NOW not in two weeks :O )
What are you doing right now: Writing this, reading an awesome Naruto fanfic, arguing with my cat, smiling at my cat, enjoying that my cat is currently not screaming his head off and hoping lasts, considering attempting to gather my sweet kitty for a cuddle, watching a few anime Hero Academia, *just finished a few too* just started the first ep of Spiral; cat's yelling again ”be quite I'm not giving you a snack! Top scratching the table gah!”; quiet again, please last; playing Pokemon Sun.
When did you create this blog: Uh, like last year I think. It's fairly new.
What kind of stuff I usually post: Mostly reblogs. I'm planning to start psoting some fan theories, musings on stories, and maybe a review or two, I dunno. Who knows.
Do you have any other blogs: Twitter (my primary hang out) and Deviantart.
Do you get asks regularly: No
Why did you choose your url: Uh.
Hogwarts house: Swings between Slytherin and Hufflepuff, with the potential but not really the desire for Gryffyndor.
Pokémon team: I think it was Valor, but I dunno. Also, if I really lived in the pkmn world my occupation would totally be treasure hunter/adventurer.
Favourite colour: Pastel/baby/pale pink and pastel/baby/pale/sky blu are tied for first place, second is pastel/baby/pale purplish blue and pastel lavenderish. I just love pastels, and I'm fond of all lighter shades of blue. I like some reds too. Bright orange and yellow in nature. If it's found on a real rainbow I likely have a fondness for it. Flowers and nature make me happy. I love the sky, and bodies of water. My dream is to live near a lake and a meadow. (I hate grey.)
Average hours of sleep: It swings. But for an otimal nights sleep I require around ten hours min.
Lucky number: 7
Favourite Character: Lucy Heartfilia from Fairy Tail (probably one of the best female characters (and characters period) ever; Naruto Uzumaki (pre Tobi ”reveal”) from Naruto; Sakura Haruno (pre Tobi reveal), various other Naruto characters; Madoka from Madoka Magica, Usagi/Sailor Moon; various Madoka Magica characters; various FairyTail characters; various Digimon Characters; Harry Potter from HP; various HP charas. A ton of others too, but this list is long enough.
How many blankets do you sleep with: Two summer duvets (sometimes I forgo the one if it's REALLY hot, but my body goes into super shut down mode when I sleep, so I get super chilly. This is not fun on a plane.) In the winter I sometimes pile on one or two or even three blankets. (Then despar when I wake to one or more on the floor.)
Following: 6
Followers: 11 but not because tumblr spazzed out. The real number is iffy. :P
I was kinda tagged by Amarevia. I tag those who wanna give it a go.

And old drabbles from 2014, back when I was figuring out why Pheres always wears wraps under his clothes. Includes the gilled headcanon!
CHOKING ON YOUR ALIBIS
SIPARA NZINGA & PHERES DYSSEU | eight sweeps
"My back hurts," he complains one day. He's built a nest of blankets and covers, and is now sprawled across Sipara's concuscpecient couch while she works on the floor next to it, husktop in her lap. He's supposed to be sleeping, but.
She isn't paying attention. He reaches out and tugs on a curl. "Sipa~," he whines.
She turns her head, and he yanks his fingers away just before her teeth clamp down. Sipara is the worst. "Take off the shirt, then," she says irritably. "Iunno why you even got it on still, jfc. I promise I won't cull you."
Pheres huffs. "Like you could!" Still, she has a point. His undershirt is hardly tight enough to be actively detrimental to his health, but... it'd be very nice to take it off. Let his skin breathe.
He hooks his thumbs into the bottom, and pulls.
> VITILIGO
The shirt comes off easily enough. The shirts for hiding, not compression.
The skin underneath is mottled with colour: not just the uniform dusky gray of his hands and face, but lighter shades of pinkish red, where the pigment has worn away, and rose gray where it's in the process. Looking at it makes his skin itch, and his hands curl.
It's spread, since the last time he checked.
He wants to scratch it off, dig his claws in and rip until it all looks uniform under the rosewood of his blood. He used to do that as a grub, when the first translucent spot appeared: pick and dig and scratch, because the dark weal of scar tissue is ugly, but the piebald marks will get him culled.
He places a hand on his side, and Sipara clears her throat.
"Nice spots, dude," she jeers, and he drops the shirt on her head instead.
> SPHERES
The shirt is a struggle to get off.
The bottom wants to roll, for one, and the top wants to cling. Every time he tugs one way, the fabric wants to go the other, and when he finally gets it over his head, it's to be greeted by the sound of fabric ripping.
"You broke the strap," Sipara says, ever helpful.
He makes a face at her. It's nice to be uncompressed, and he takes a deep breath, just for the novelty of it. After days in the undershirt, it almost hurts, but the feeling of his lungs expanding and detracting, unrestricted, is more than worth it.
The way that his spheres shake with the motion is a little disconcerting, though.
Pheres flops back down on the bed, and he's promptly reminded why he wears the undershirt: he has to shift positions and figure out a new way to lay, because it seems like his rumblespheres are constantly in the way. Getting resettled takes a moment.
He'll have to figure out a way to fix the strap before he leaves Sipara's hive. He already has enough trouble with his horns: he doesn't need a third rack always getting in the way, too.
> SCARS
He pulls the shirt over his horns, balls it up, and tosses it to the corner.
He isn't planning on looking down: the scars haven't changed in sweeps, and he's worked hard to keep it that way. But curiosity gets the best of him, as it always does. The little nicks from knives and claws across his collar and chest, the rippled flesh where a blueblood stabbed him on his breastbone, the bite from Rmeros's lusus... there isn't much skin left unmarked, and he can feel bile rising in his gorge as he looks at it.
(Each one is proof of some mistake, writ large on his flesh, and he hates it, but what he hates more is the impression it gives. His torso is a mottled weal of scar tissue and damage. It's not the skin of a docile book-keeper: it's the skin of some sort of thug.)
"Hey, dude, stop eyefucking yourself," Sipara says, and when he looks up, she raises an eyebrow and sneers. "My dads got better scars than that shit."
"Hell, I bet your dad has better scars than that shit, and he's dead."
He huffs, flings himself back down on the bed, and bundles himself in one of the blankets, until there's no skin showing at all, just fabric. It helps, a little. "Oh, shut up."
> GILLS
He outgrew this shirt two sweeps ago, and wrestling out of it is a chore. When he finally gets it over a shoulder, it gets stuck to a horn: when he wrests that free, it clings around his face like a eggshroud, and Sipara has to get up and pull it free.
He was hoping to avoid her, but now that she's up, there's no point in objecting as Sipara performs her usual survey. She runs her fingers along his sides, prying gently at the closed operculum and peering at the maroon gills underneath. For once, she's careful of her claws.
"Deep breath," she orders, and Pheres obliges, dragging in air through his lungs and forcing it slowly out of his protesting gills. He doesn't look down as she works, but keeps his eyes focused on the cracks in the ceiling.
(Mutants deserve to be culled. But he's not a mutant: just a cusp, Sipara says, like her, like Myrrha, like Rmeros and every other member of their line.)
(Of course, none of them have gills, not even Rmeros. He checked.)
"You need to use these more. Like, shit'll starts rotting if you don't -"
"Use them where?" he asks, incredulous. "In the river? Shall I remind you that the last time I tried that, we had to cull someone?"
She paps him in the face, her claws little pinpricks of pain as they drag on the skin. "No, dumbass," she says, patient: "In my tub. Come on, I'll get my husktop and you can like, blow bubbles or whatever. You need to get some water through those fuckers, 'cause if they start crumbling off, I'm not cleaning it up..."
>NOTHING
He doesn't get much farther then rolling the bottom of his shirt before he gives up.
Logically speaking, cloth is no protection. There's nothing the opaque shirt does to benefit him: it won't stop knives, claws, or even sharp words. But the constant pressure against his skin feels like it could, and he finds the idea of stripping and leaving nothing between his thoracic struts and the rest of the world thoroughly unappealing.
Even if he's only lounging around with his moirail.
"No," he says, flicking one of her oversized ears, "I think I'd rather just complain."
