broke my promise to myself and actually watched the jey/gunther match and let me tell you... whoever booked that finish wanted jey to look like an idiot. mega rant under the cut which you should honestly read im not your mama but you should read it

he splashes gunther after getting dominated for 80% of the match and an (honestly underwhelming) spear and we're meant to believe the +2yr champion who's beaten virtually everyone on the roster (including drew who recently beat jey TWICE) was about to be defeated right there?......okay............ but it gets worse

when the referee (for no real good reason) stops the count at 2 after jimmy rings the bell, jey "forgets" about gunther and turns his back to him, allowing gunther to get back up almost IMMEDIATELY (remember we were meant to think he was about to be beaten 5 seconds earlier) yet jey quickly superkicks him BUT THEN decides to dive at jimmy on the outside instead of going directly for another splash (girl help) so ofc when he does go for the splash, gunther gets the knees up, and to add a cherry on top of this shit sunday, pins jey right there after performing no extra offense - doesn't even roll him up, jey just lies there flat on his back and gets pinned (while michael cole screams "GUNTHER ROLLS UP JEY USO" to make me even more mad, apparently, as zero actual rolling takes place in the ring - just a leg hook & weight on the shoulders combo... and not a particularly vicious one either) I just ??????

and of-fucking-course as the TV feed gets cut, cue cody and punk who come out all smiles ready to do the usual fanservice routine for the live crowd and suddenly jey is mostly done selling what just happened and is smiling along with whatever you wanna call it - sending the crowd home happy?? since when did that become mandatory for broadcast shows??? why can't emotionally devastating moments count just as much when it comes to delivering a satisfying ending to the live crowd??? are you telling me they couldnt have had jey walk to the back WHILE SELLING the heartbreak/frustration of what happened and THEN send cody out to do the fanservice thing??? fuck maintaining suspension of disbelief I guess - you can't even argue that "it's fine it was just a treat for the live crowd" because WWE has posted the footage everywhere and promoted it heavily.

imagine if after the camera stopped rolling at last year's rumble, sami had got up, undone kevin's handcuffs and they both hugged and cut a cheerful promo at the crowd - everyone would've blasted wwe for undermining the impact of that finish and not letting the moment breathe.

here's another, even more similar example - remember what happened after summerslam when jimmy attacked jey? he sold the devastation of the moment all the way until he exited the arena, so why is this any different? because it's "just" TV and not a PPV? nah, i'll tell you why: because wwe does not give a shit about this current version of jey's character - he's there to spew the same catchphrase 100x an hour (because it sells merch and pops the crowd let's be honest), display a grand total of two personality traits, and rub his popularity off onto the people wwe actually consider stars

for comparison - you cannot tell me that if it was cody in this position (just lost an important match thanks to the most important person in his life + got attacked by them on top of it) wwe wouldn't have had him look devastated or cut an emotional, tearful promo that would've then been posted and promoted everywhere

"chill, it's not that serious" my apologies for wanting something i love (and KNOW can be so much better with minimal effort) to have a basic level of logic and thought put into it, it's not like wrestling booking is rocket science and we know wwe is NOT incapable of actually delivering good stuff 🤷??? the standards for this show are so damn low and seeing no one else be bothered by it does my fucking head in ouch ouch wheres the aspirin bye

#jey uso #wwe #the usos #jimmy uso #i fr wasnt gonna tag this at first #but fuck it i'm mad and yall will hear about it #if you consider yourself a jey fan in any way shape or form... i genuinely think you should read this

Re: Hypertagging characters/ships for triggers, yeah as someone whos insane ass has a very serious trigger for a specific fictional character -particularly if they are portrayed in a positive light- I just Do Not Read Fic in that fandom by and large and blacklist it pretty hard.

It sucks I had to divorce myself from the fandom because I LIKED the earlier seasons and sometimes the fic was cute and good, but I simply cannot reasonably ask anyone to tag every mention of that character so I blacklist it all.

Its a me issue, NOT a them issue, so its my job to manage it and actually put effort into that.

That means blacklisting the show on every platform that is possible that I use, not following people who are likely to post that character, not consuming the new canon content of the show in case I get jumpscared with the character, and only ever intentionally looking for content if im in the right frame of mind to be able to stand simply seeing the name somewhere while I control+f a fic to see if they show up. I even sometimes ask friends to prescreen fics sometimes if I REALLY want to read something.

I make my own content if I want to engage with that media and I avoid the fandom. Its... I wont say its easy because it really sucks actually, but the world cannot and should not cater to me in that way. Its a competing access need and unreasonable to ask.

Its reasonable to ask a friend to warn/not deliberately show me that character- not NOT reasonable to ask a rando to do that.

Id even try to desensitize the trigger if I was in a good place for doing it but I am the wrong kind of insane to be doing that any time soon lol. Trauma work lays you right out.

To people wondering how anyone could be so fragile as to need something like that tagged; PTSD and other mental illnesses that cause serious triggers often latch onto innocuous things. Do you think I want to have such a 'cringe' trigger that causes me to [redacted] at best and have a dissociative panic attack-flashback combo AND [redacted] at worse? No its dumb as hell and I hate that there is very little to do to suppress it. Does that make the trigger go away? Also no. Its not like this is just me not liking or being uncomfortable with the character, this is an involuntary serious-hazard-to-health negative reaction I shant detail that sucks ass.

Yes us crazies do deserve to participate in fandom spaces too, we arent too broken to be barred from playing with everyone else- we just have to understand where the reasonable line is on accommodations for tagging, understand that competing access needs are a thing, and do the rest of the work ourselves.

Its not perfect but its the most good for the most people.

Id invite anyone who has a character/ship/etc trigger to seriously just blacklist the media and do what I do or even be more strict about it. You will feel so much better and more stable im not kidding. It sucks to lose a beloved fandom but you will feel so much better.

For everyone else- dont feel you need to tag every last mention on something. If you really want to be trigger friendly for some reason, you can put in the chapter notes all the minor mentions of stuff or w/e. Please Do Not put it in the proper tags.

Sadly, "dumb as hell" is a pretty default setting for triggers. If only brains were logical and behaved themselves! But one has to work with what one's got.

It is so ridiculously, adorably, painfully wholesome (in a kinda twisted way?) that high elf loser would have continued to remain a porn rotted loser if Corellon hadn’t decided to give him one (1) friend to act as a sort of anchor to reality. I mean he’s still kind of a loser, but now he’s a loser with a friend that’s also a really hot fwb/fuckbuddy/maybe partner if his delusions ever come to fruition :) I really love the thought of the two of you still partaking in the hobbies you initially bonded over together, you coming over to his place to play the video games you like or watch TV shows you discussed. Like yeah sure sex is nice (especially when you beat his ass in a game and ride him on the couch so hard he cries) but also it’s probably really nice to have someone who sees him and accepts him for who he is and is happy to spend time with him :) It’s mostly a bonus that it comes wrapped in a gorgeous human frame that makes him so hard it hurts.

Like for a moment just imagine the sheer domestic bliss our beloved loser feels when you spontaneously decide to sleep over instead of going back to your place. How excited he gets when he realizes that he gets to keep you for the night and take care of you and make you food and then maybe, probably, plow you with all his characteristic desperation against the kitchen counter. And he finds himself looking forward to when you inevitably fall asleep in his bed because that means he’s gonna get to feel your warm, soft, human body pressed so nicely up against him for the hours you’re spent dreaming. Like mentioned he won’t touch you while you’re asleep (unless… the two of you have a discussion about that…) but just having every curve and line of your body against him has his cock hard enough to hurt while he drools a puddle of pre-cum into his sleep pants. Knowing how he is, he probably even thinks the little twitches/mumbles you make while you’re asleep are painfully endearing.

On that note: Morning sex? Waking up all drowsy and sleep-soft early in the morning and being surprised to see he’s in bed with you (when he sometimes gets bored or antsy and gets up to do other things while you’re unconscious), so you either roll over and climb on top of him for sleepy morning kisses? Or you drag him on top of you for the same? I know he’ll be pathetically ready to go either way

Also his possessiveness has me weak in the knees I cannot lie OTL He sees how heavily you are coveted and maybe it sparks something surprisingly hot and spitting in his chest, a combo of fear and irritation swirling in him as he thinks about the possibility of losing you to someone else. Or, even worse, having someone figure out your identity and try to arrange a hookup. Maybe it drives him to dig his nails into your flesh a little harder the next time you let him stretch you open on his dick, grip your hips and thighs tighter to imprint his hands into your soft skin, nip at your chest and throat a little fiercer. You’ve already utterly ruined him for anyone else, what’s the harm in learning into it a little harder?

I was putting these asks off until the name poll ended so I could officially use his new name. But at this point there are only 2 days left and I think we have a clear winner.

So woo! Meluidil, our beloved loser high elf, now has a name.

Now Meluidil does truly think it is Corellon's pantheon which are responsible for bringing you into his life. Blessing him with a lover who's his only friend after years of solitude.

But did Corellon really do it? Who knows.

Maybe he didn't. After all you are a human, how could the god of elves really command you or influence your life? You are out of his domian. For all Corellon knows, out of the blue this one high elf started praying to him again and giving offerings. Thanking him for a blessing that Corellon doesn't even remember giving or if he did at all.

Or maybe he did influence you, he is a god after all. But don't get him wrong, he never liked doing it or you. Much like a parent finally begrudgingly getting a puppy to their screaming toddler. Corellon dislikes half elves and the hold humanity has on his children. Your kind is a plague on his beloved elves and yet he still obliges from time to time and coax a human or two into a lonely elf's arms if nothing else worked.

Believe him, he tried. Really tried to get Meluidil a soulmate in another elf. Even sent an aquatic elf to him to save him from drowning once, and all that pathetic loser did was talk for hours about human movies where they almost drown and a mermaid saves them. Sighing about how the reason he even was in the ocean was because he was planning to save a cute human, alas he forgot that he himself didn't know how to swim that well. Then bid the aquatic elf goodbye and never came back to the beach again.

Corellon tried everything, but the human fever was strong with this one. So he accepted his loss and pulled some strings of fate until you landed into Meluidil's arms. But don't forget yourself, lowly human, elves still deserve elf partners. You just happened to be an exception this one time.

He never could've predicted the domino effect of your filming yourself with Meluidil and pulling even more elves into this degenerate human kink.

It is a blessing and a curse how much time he gets to spend with you now. On one hand, he's over the moon at the fact he can just turn and look at you whenever, feel your smile against his skin, taste your lips no matter the hour of the day, listen to your voice first thing in the morning.

On the other hand, you can't get anything done without him clinging to your side. All needy and curious about your human hobbies. Asking you the most intrusive of questions or beginning you to brush and play with his hair, maybe massage his ears. Do all the things to him that he was raised to never do as a high elf, touch him in all the places that a human normally wouldn't he able to touch an elf.

He wants your attention and love all the time. His own love for you is even spilling over the edges. Lust, admiration, adoration, fascination. You're like the spring dream that he never wants to wake up from, especially after a harsh winter.

And he is still a high elf in all appearance and mannerism. He still has this aura of importance around him, this ethereal way of speaking, every syllable akin to a melody on his tongue.

Having one of these creatures that were written about in history, that many humans never saw throughout their lifetimes, just sprawled across your lap, wearing your own oversized shirt as he whines about you paying more attention to your phone than him.

It is also sometimes jarring whe this hundreds of years old man, who probably lived through so many historic events and was there even before the moonlanding, just casually references a lame tiktok he saw while the two of you have lunch.

Making bad jokes and laughing at his own bad jokes, being able to inhale a family sized bag of the most spicy chips in the world like it's nothing because elven tastebuds get more endurance with age.

And at times- he is just so....human. the way his hair tangles and he struggles to fix it with a grumpy expression. The way he hits his toe on the table leg and curses the tree it was made out of in elvish.

The way he shows vulnerability and insecurity at times. At maybe not being pretty enough for you, smart enough or impressive enough. At how by elf standards, he is below average, it's just because you are human that you find his life achievements so impressive. That you find his face so enthralling, his voice so enchanting.

He deeply wants to belong, to understand humanity. Humans who are so impossible different from each other yet managed to find home in each other. How even the smallest difference could get you becoming an outcast in elven culture.

Somehow, the more the two of you sleep together, the more addicted he gets. Things that were supposed to cool off or become the norm after a few months, instead keep getting more and more ablaze. Each time he thinks this is as good as it can ever get, you surprise him with something new without even trying to.

Each hour at work feels unbearable, especially when he knows that you'll be waiting for him back at his apartment since his schedule ends after yours. He can't stop thinking about you there on his bed.

He can't get hard at work, but fuck he can't stop thinking about you touching yourself. Grinding into one of his pillows and moaning out his name, in that adorable human way where you keep mispronouncing it. He never thought his own name could sound so hot until you cried it out in bed.

And then, his phone innocently pings. A text notification from you.

His heart is racing, he's looking around his office even tho he is sure he is the only one there. Fingers shaking as he unlocks the phone, lips parting in a breathless gasp as he views the pictures you've sent him.

You're going to be the death of him.

The possessiveness is new.

It's not a feeling he's used to, he thought that he loved all humans equally. Found the majority of them hot and irresistible.

But he has never been close to one like he has been close to you, never even befriended one before.

You were his first human. He had sex with elves before, back when he was in denial of his human preference. It was alright, but he never truly was into it. Still, it was nice.

But after you? After your body and the tightness of your hole making him lose his breath? After a taste of the forbidden apple, there is no way for him to forget it now.

You've completely ruined whatever hope there was for him to have a normal elven relationship. Completely ereased any future possibilities of him sharing his bed with a non-human. He can't get enough of your plump body, your human scent.

It's like he is in a constant spell around you that keeps him seeking more, keeps hims asking for another round even when tears run down his cheeks from overstimulation, keeps him exhausting the both of you without any shame.

That's why the possessiveness is sprouting inside his core. He can't possibly find another human if you become interested in someone else. Even then, he doesn't want another human, he wants you.

He wants his friend that was there to console him whenever he was having a bad day, he wants the same person who played games with him and shared details about their day. Humans are truly wild and unpredictable, there's only one of you in this whole world and he can't imagine losing the one person he finally felt understood with.

Mario Kart

So, I know Mario Kart is probably an Absolutely Not at Fox Tower, but I can't stop thinking about how it would play out, so I have compiled a neat little list of my thoughts on the matter.

Kevin:

He's god-awful at it.

He's a faithful Luigi player (don't ask me why, I just feel it in my gut)

Gets ramped up over it like you wouldn't believe and has on more than one occasion locked himself in the bathroom to sulk over it (the same goes for when the Foxes play Monopoly---the man gets so competitive but he's so bad at it)

Manages to catch Every. Single. Red shell.

Neil:

This boy's never played in his life prior to meeting the Foxes, but manages to land in first, second, or third place every time

Orange Yoshi for the win

Always choses a motorcycle over a kart, typically the Comet

Actually pays attention to the stats of certain combos (so does Kevin, but Neil's better at it when it comes to Mario Kart)

Andrew:

Plays solely Black Yoshi

Targets Kevin exclusively bc it's fun to watch him get mad

Has a specific kart-combo glaringly reminiscent of the Mas

Acts like he doesn't care, but gets perturbed when he doesn't land above 5th place, bc he'll be damned if he lets Aaron or Kevin outdo him

Aaron:

Bounces around between characters, but typically opts for Shy Guy

Almost worse at it than Kevin

Says the most scathing things when playing---the worst things that come out of this boy's mouth are said during Mario Kart

He and Kevin are Last Place Buddies ™ and they have occasionally gone out to drink cheap alcohol together after Mario Kart nights to soothe their bruised egos.

Allison:

An absolute goddess at Baby Peach

Can hit someone across the track with power-ups; it doesn't matter; her aim only gets better the more frustrated she is

Her kart runs on Pure, Undiluted Spite

Knows the Electrodrome track inside and out and Cannot Be Beaten on it

Nicky:

Always opts for Pink Gold Peach

Best friends with the dude who fishes you up from oblivion to deposit you back onto the track (it happens frequently bc he Refuses to turn on smart steering)

Actually pretty decent at it bc he and Erik used to play a lot back in Germany

Swears like a sailor whenever someone passes him

Renee:

Usually plays either Rosalina or Tanooki Mario

Literally the only non-hostile Fox when things get competitive, though she drives like a demon and can out-compete just about anyone when she wants to

The Ruler of Rainbow Road

Steals 1st place from Neil 50% of the time

Matt:

Irrevocably attached to playing Daisy

The king of drifting through corners

Plays to have fun, but not immune to the shouting matches when Kevin or the twinyards are involved

Seems to be permanently stuck in 5th place, regardless of who he's up against

Dan:

Absolutely vicious at Toad

Her kart is always orange; stats don't matter so long as the Fox Aesthetic is on point

She and Matt play so often that she's gotten godlike at most of the tracks, but it's still a fight to outcompete Neil and Renee

Will carry Mario Kart Rage™ for hours; she occasionally has to remove herself from the room so she doesn't say something caustic

Seth:

Instigator of many of the shouting matches

Will play as Bowser until the day he dies

Motorcycle user until the bitter end

Never lands in first place and will die mad about it

#aftg #foxhole court #the foxhole court #all for the game #neil josten #aftg neil #andrew minyard #aftg andrew #kevin day #aaron minyard #nicky hemmick #allison reynolds #renee walker #matt boyd #seth gordon #dan wilds #I'm so sorry for all of the death puns #I didn't realize I was doing it until I hit the third bullet point #RIP Seth

I am so sorry if this is invasive and weird, but may I ask what you work as? I'm at the stage where I have to build my future and I know you don't have an age specified but you seem to be doing really well (at least from the posts we've seen, again I really hope not to be invasive) for yourself and your partner and 25+ is still young! Again, I hope this isn't mean or weird, I'm just curious. (and severely nervous. First year of college is ruining me harder than any fictional man.)

ahh anon i'm afraid that the answer is probably not what you're looking for!

for the record, i am 27, i just find getting fandom older a little scary, especially having it listed right there!!!

i actually intended to be a performer and a singing teacher (my degree was going to be in music & musical theatre); unfortunately, due to a plethora of reasons (mostly my undiagnosed autism, unmedicated ocd/depression/anxiety combo, a nervous breakdown and my partner's physical health declining) i dropped out of my degree before the end of my first semester.

for about three years or so after that i was severely agoraphobic. talking 'can't answer the door' agoraphobic; 'never left the house alone, and even when with someone only went to the doctors and therapy' agoraphobic, 'rotted in my bedroom in an absolutely non romanticised way' agoraphobic. i was on the equivalent of disability because i literally could not function. meanwhile, my partner, who lived with me and my parents was getting physically worse whilst i was mentally struggling (since then haz has been diagnosed with ehlers danlos syndrome, fibromyalgia, lipoedema, thyroid issues and a lot of other things; they have a lot going on). i DID access several therapies, had . . . a couple of very bad relapses, went under crisis teams and all of that stuff (i had occupational therapy too which was HONESTLY i think one of the most useful things and helpful things for me in the long run; i cannot imagine what i would be like if i hadn't had the occupational therapist the crisis team found for me).

(coincidentally, if you are an og jojo follower you probably remember how bad it was; i've said it a hundred times, but running this silly little reader-insert blog probably helped save my life at a time when i had almost no contact with the outside world. i couldn't leave my bedroom, but i had my blog and i had my little internet friends and discord server).

i have gotten a lot better.

haz, unfortunately, has not gotten better physically and probably never will. they need help with a lot of things most people don't even realise disabled people might need help with. brushing their hair, fastening clothes . . . when haz first moved in, they were doing the same dance-intensive college course that i was. we danced maybe three or four hours a day. nowadays, haz needs me to hold their hand and keep them steady when they go from our bed to the bathroom (the room next door).

so i don't really 'work' as anything. well, my therapist would tell me off for saying that; the uk government classes me as an 'unpaid carer', which basically means i am on call for haz literally 24/7 and they pay me the pittance that is carer's allowance (carer's allowance assumes you care at least 35 hours a week, and pays you the privilege of about 45 pence per each of those hours. if, like me, you live with the person you care for and do more than those hours, it gets . . . yeah. oof. the government unfortuately know that most unpaid carers are loved ones and family members of the person who needs care and won't just stop doing it, and they'd be in the shit if we did because trained carers are expensive, so they can get away with that - FUCK the tories, honestly.

i am EXCEEDINGLY lucky that i live in a cheap area of the uk, that haz and i are internet savvy enough to be able to access carers/disability discounts, that we are in rent-controlled social housing (which my crisis team helped find for us because living with my parents was taking such a toll on us both, woo!!!!), and that we've been able to access services to help on the nhs. i got my autism assessment and diagnosis; haz is under several pain management teams.

all in all, i'm happy. i'm so much happier than i was seven years ago when i'd dropped out of university and felt like a huge failure, because all of my life i was a gifted overachiever and i thought my self-worth was tied to my academic achievements (and as an extension, what roles i got in what shows and when and who saw me and so on). i don't have a lot of money (i am a bargain shopped fgbnkjgjnfb) but i know what i like and because i'm Older Now (tm) i've amassed collections of it.

i am absolutely sure that you'll boss college, anon! that you will find that thing that works for you (one day i would LOVE to go back and get my degree! pre-covid i had an acceptance for a creative writing degree and i was getting ready to go back to uni as a mature student, but haz's health got bad again and then covid happens - and now ofc i have my autism diagnosis i can access so much more help!). but even if you don't, you can absolutely find happiness without 'traditional' success.

i don't have a lot in the grand scheme of things. but you're right in that i am doing pretty well, in terms of where i am, and where i've been. i have my own little home. i have my partner of ten years who is my soulmate in every conceivable way. i've had experiences that make me feel so happy i sometimes cry when i remember them. i have my own little cat now!!! things still stress me out. but i have come so so far and when i feel down i remember that.

good luck anon! i believe in you <3

I feel like with Jake as the Olo'eyktan and human scientists a stone's throw away, the Sully kids (and many others) grew up with a healthy dose of both English and Na'vi (though obviously more Na'vi in key ways) and they're so used to this mesh of English/Na'vi that sometimes they forget themselves when they're in Awa'atlu.

Like, Ao'nung will be pissing Lo'ak off and he'll get so heated that he just busts into a mix of English and Na'vi and everyone is just staring at him, completely baffled, with the other Sullys off to the side trying to hold back their laughter and it just gets worse.

And don't even get me started on forgetting certain words. Imagine little Tuk chattering away with Tsireya and all of a sudden she pauses because she forgot the Na'vi word for it. This is followed by her frustratedly trying to convey what word she's trying to say to Tsireya but the more agitated she gets the more English sneaks in: "No, no, it's yellow and green like--like a pineapple but not because only Earth has pineapples and it's small and looks like an oval and---". . . suffice to say, Tsireya never found out what word Tuk forgot.

I feel like Kiri and Neteyam would be the two that mostly speak English purposely, though. Whenever Kiri wants to feel close to her mother, she'll just talk about her day and what's been going on and all that in English, as if she were talking to Grace. Neteyam has a fondness for speaking English whenever he doesn't want to be understood by anyone but his family. Things like that.

And there's probably so many more scenarios dude. What do you think about English in the Sully's lives?

Adorable! Tuk and Tsireya!! This is the cutest ask, I love little Omaticaya and them meshing with the humans that stayed after the Assault on the Tree of Souls.

I unfortunately am not lucky enough to be bilingual, but from my friends and family that are I imagine it would be quite similar. Conversations in the Sully house are just like Navenglish lol, it's a combo. Jake calls his kids sweetheart, babygirl, kiddo, and bud and also ma'evi and ma yawntutsyìp in the same sentences. ALSO Jake calls Neytiri babe 24/7 I don't make the rules. Does she start to say it baCK? I think so... I think so...

Curse words are CRAZY, the mix of Na'vi curse words and English ones (and some surprise Spanish ones Spider has learned in an attempt to get closer to his mom) that Lo'ak and Spider use on the regular is truly unimaginable.

Norm is a xenolinguist this man loves languages. You know those people that can just pick up a language like that? Their brains are just wired for it. That's how I picture Norm. I think he designates language days in Hells Gate from when Spider is little, where all the scientists can only speak in one language. Most of the time it's Na'vi or English and everyone can ignore you if you speak in the wrong one and everyone is ruthless. If you forget the right word, you had better explain what you meant because everyone goes mysteriously deaf when the wrong language slips in. Sometimes Norm will go off the rails and all of a sudden it's Malayalam day for Max or Spanish day so Spider can feel connected to his mom. Then one of the lab techs is feeling like brushing up on her Korean and all of a sudden it's Korean day. Spider is the best child ever at learning languages he soaks up information like a sponge man. Also Lo'ak loves these days so he can come learn swear words. I don't think he knows but i'm convinced he's good at languages too.

I made a post about this but specifically the human sayings that Jake brings to the Omaticaya, they are hit or miss dude. I have another post in the works about this, but I really stand by that they love 'you win some, you lose some.' It sounds so dramatic with no context.

I think they are high fiving and flipping each other off like crazy. It's not English but it is a communication style for sure, and one the Na'vi don't do. You cannot convince me once they know it every Omaticaya teenager isn't flipping each other off from the back of an ikran every single day. I think Ao'nung in particular really enjoys these lol.

Tsireya I think really is invested in learning English. She's not very good at it but she really wants to learn! Her and Lo'ak trade lessons, her teaching him a word in sign language and him teaching her in English.

okay now this one's cursed but I cannot stop thinking of Bram as looking like the Bug's Life Ants

NOOO! IM CRYING😭 (like combo that ant with alien vs. Predator vibes and you're not far off)

Exactly how this information would be received💀

In all actuality he'd be closer to this guy😭

Which is arguably worse.

This is just convincing me I should post some official art soon soon.

IN MY HUMBLE OPINION

He's got a really cool design

#THIS IS SO GOOD #thank you for the laugh!! this killed em #askento #BramOC

hai hai manu 😸 <3 it’s my turn now to ask you , i have a rough idea who your favs may be but i’d just love to hear you talk even more about them honestly - so whom are your genshin + hsr favourites and why?

hiii vana! again, i’m a certified “cannot shut up when asked about my faves” so pls never feel bad about talking a lot because i am so much worse asdfghjkl… but that’s also because i play both games daily since release, so a lot has changed these past years :’3

ayato ノ his eyes, his voice, his elegance… i will do anything for him. i waited for him since the very first mention of ayaka’s brother hehe ♡ i adore how professional he appears in public, but to close people he’s quite silly. but mostly… he’s just a troubled character with so much possible development, and probably that’s why he’s not leaving my mind. i always think how the game pushes him to the back, he doesn’t deserve this :(

wriothesley ノ appearance-wise he wasn’t even my type. but everything changed after i read his voicelines, turned out he’s such a gentle soul, he’s just a guy, but the past hurt him so so badly. and after doing his story quest i cried so hard, like, this man would heal everything in me haha which may be quite an unpopular opinion, because i’ve seen most people love him for his confidence etc. — i love his tea obsession (same) and lighthearted jokes ♡

xianyun ノ she ate and left no crumbs. i have fallen for her immediately and i’m so happy to finally find a genshin woman who stole my heart (i love many others, but in a softer way hehe). i bawled my eyes out during her story quest and she brings me so much comfort and happiness! ♡ i adore her antics and manner of speech, how she’s such an intelligent and elegant woman, and strong and independent but also motherly and gentle — literally everything about her!

last year’s sumeru made me absolutely obsessed with alhaitham from the very start! i got his C6 immediately, he deserved it all! but now… blank mind. i cannot remember WHY i loved him so much, but i know that i did :( and it’s the same with diluc :(

ꕤ ₊ ˙ ⊹ . and now about star rail faves !

dr. ratio ノ i’ve been waiting for him since the first beta leaks of his model, i just adore his design so much. the white, gold, violet combo is perfect, and i’m a sucker for anything antiquity-inspired. but his personality asdfghjkl he’s even better than i thought he would be! that’s probably my favourite personality type (not talking about the mbti stuff rn) in fiction ever!

sunday ノ been keeping me on edge since the first leak about his personality, though i always take it with a grain of salt not to get disappointed :’) so far so good, he’s been intriguing, and i enjoy his character, but i can’t say (yet) that he will become my fave after we finish the penacony questline. as of rn, i’m mostly drawn to him because of his design, i just can’t say no to angelic and religious motifs :’3

before star rail release, i actually waited the most for luocha :3 and, sadly, i just can’t hit that special something with star rail girlies — some are stunning, cool, amazing, but i just can’t find that spark that would make me fall for any of them yet :(

i'm not sure if you've ever mentioned this, but is there a story behind doom metal love story's title? i think it's very fun :)

Moriah! Hi! :D

Are you ready for the most braindead answer I could possibly give?

I listened to a lot of funeral doom metal (Bell Witch, Pallbearer, Full of Hell, Primitive Man, Thou, Chained to the Bottom of the Ocean, off the top of my head) + realized there was a love story at the heart of all the hallucinatory, horrible things happening.

Me: Yeah, that's a title!

I point to this song all the time.

This is The Vibe of the midpoint of the novel. It's when I hit the reader with the realization that they followed Sullivan (and, by extension, Royston) into a situation that they can't explain and they also can't back out of anymore.

Like, you're about to go on a dungeon crawl through Hell. You had very little control over ending up here. You have no idea what's about to happen next but nothing you can do is going to stop it. If you try to run away, you'll wash and have to do the last year and nine months all over again. You're fucked, and the reason you're fucked is [spoiler] handcuffed to you and possessed by an angry spirit.

That's funeral doom metal.

(I think CRAWL is more atmospheric black metal than doom but I'll allow it. If you can handle this song the next one will be like a warm blanket.)

This is the song I listened to when I was writing the draft 1 finale chapter. Sullivan has to overcome fatal injuries to drag himself and Royston out of Hell so they might have a chance of surviving Rocks Falling and Killing Everyone. (That's a Bad Ending scenario that got cut LOL that does not happen anymore.)

The last verse just sums up Sullivan as a character:

There is no release. There is no end in sight. Tomorrow will never come. I cannot ever ever ever give up.

Sullivan is a very doom metal character anyway. He doesn't flinch away from the futility of existence and he will keep plowing forward until he completes whatever his goal is, regardless of how fucked up his body is or what is happening in the plot (or what timeline I drop him in!) because he knows who he is and what he's about.

(Also minor depersonalization/internalized weaponization from being in the Army since he was 15 years old but shh.)

That's the same way he feels about Royston. It's why I'm committed to letting him earn a Golden Ending. Like, he's put the work in. Nothing Sullivan does is going to change who Royston is as a person. He accepts who he is, and loves him, and decides to stay with him because he has accepted that Royston's amorality is inextricable. And vice versa. Sullivan is stubborn and rigid and difficult to get to know despite being an open, honest individual.

If I wanted to tell a dark cautionary tale, these two would end up destroying each other. The fact that they know they shouldn't work as a couple and go "Well fuck you we're going to try anyway" while they treat each other with respect (as much as Royston respects anyone lol) is, to me, metal.

So I, looking for a concise way to pitch it rather than prattling on about philosophical pessimism and the impossibility of loving another person without really seeing them at their worst and what it means to forgive a person who hurt you while trying to make sure something worse wouldn't happen to you, settled on "doom metal love story." I figured anyone who was on the same wavelength as me would see that combo and go "Well I want to know what the fuck that's all about."

#sh0ckrot #11/10 asks #thank you for stopping by <3 #doom metal love story #i could keep going with the albums i listened to and what songs went with which chapters but we'd be here all day

hello fellow investigators (i say as if i don't have all the answers and am only holding the magnifying class to look like i'm fitting in) anyways!! welcome to me rambling for no reason on a combo plot / starter call for hwevent15 !!! i will probably update this as the event progresses , or drop individual calls depending on the results but for now, this is just a blanket idea of where all my muses heads are at when the first murder gets reported!! so, please understand my super simple rules before reading on -- like for a plotting dm !! and then SPECIFY characters for the starters or like deadass i will not write it! the starter cap is four per writer !! i just wanna make sure i get to write with everyone!! ** please note that i will most likely be taking this opportunity to drop a bunch of old threads (unless they are plot heavy / newer), so if you request a thread for a pairing of ours, i will likely delete the older one. this really only applies to those that are focused heavily on the violentines day mini event from earlier this year! but as always, thank you for taking the time to read through my ramblings, please enjoy me talking to myself for a while and i really really hope you all love this event as much as we all love it !!!!

daily notes - may 17, 2024

Sometime Thursday, the anxiety stuff seemed to be done. However, now I'm fighting hormonal fatigue, as it's time for the monthly cycle. It had been light since earlier in the week but Thursday and Friday wiped me out. Since waking up Friday afternoon, both arms feel tingly - pinched nerves from how I slept.

I went to bed around 6:30-7pm, very tired. Woke again around 9:30 but stayed in bed reading. After 11ish, I got up and ate. I'm tired again, arms more tingly - a thin line down each arm, elbow to fingertip. I've eaten and caught up with some internets. I want to sit up and digest for another half-hour at least, even if I close my eyes.

I'll text LL-K, ask if she wants to open the library for me. I don't think I'll be worse than last week, but I won't be a whole lot better, so it's best to stay home. Because of car troubles, dad would have to drive me anyway. I know he won't mind unlocking the building for K.

I actually skipped my weekly call with phone friend, which was scheduled for Friday night. I'm too fatigued to be sad about missing out. Hoped to try again tonight (Saturday), but idk how I'll be doing.

It sucks how the stuff that upsets my routine seems to overlap, not just one thing at a time. The combo amplifies it and interferes with how I perceive things. Logically, shit happens and it's better to take care of myself. Getting through past guilt, I'm always a little antsy when I can't see through my prior commitments (eg library duty).

Lizard brain? Fatigue and anxiety telling me to turn my back on things, shutting down and wanting to hide or sleep. Toddler-tantrum side resists sleep. I've been fighting with short-bursts of sleep on-and-off for nearly a year.

Body exhausted, brain needs stimulation but doesn't have stamina for imagination.

I know this is a routine down-swing. So much excitement last week, I need time to recover. And I'm watching to see how it compares to March - when I had a really bad down-swing. All I can do is watch and wait, try to sleep if/when I can.

I will keep repeating for as long as it lasts: I'm in good spirits about this, and that is a very important thing to note. And I must remind myself that I was able to pull myself out of my last bad down-swing, and I did it quite well. Trust the process, trust that time will ease the tension. The world moves at a fast pace, and I do not move anywhere near that speed.

There's a tension of tears under the surface. It will bleed through if I close my eyes long enough. I get, like, metaphoric hypnic jerks that shake me out of it, so I cannot get the release I need. The tears are probably just fatigue - a toddler tantrum, like I keep saying. Over-stimulated, now with my body hurting and adding to the aches.

Ok, plan of attack: Text LL-K about library. Text counselor for phone session (next week, but I'm planning ahead). Leave my phone on the floor while I try to sleep.

I am grateful to be able to navigate through this, that I can talk myself through this, that I have a "success story" in recent memory to guide me now. Grateful for supportive friends, too. Lego-friend talked me into going to bed early last night, and it really felt like a tantrum with myself. Phone-friend was okay to reschedule, and I know they'll be okay if I need to reschedule again.

No more stream of consciousness. Too tired. Must post. :P

Episode 2: “The Clue” / “A Companion To Owls”

Good Omens 2 Episode 2 liveblog! Beware spoilers!!

- Crowley is such a troll in this opening scene. I've come around on the beard/glasses combo. He looks like a wisecracking talking Disney goat.

---

- Jon Hamm’s impression of Buddy Holly is amazing. “Ah-hey, ah-hey-hey” yes give me those weird, grandpa-like hiccups.

---

- I can hear a fly during the zoom in on sleeping Crowley in the Bentley... does Beez have one spy in the bookshop and one on Crowley at all times?

- Hmmm, Shax tells Crowley right away about Heaven detecting the miracle. That could be evidence for my Beelzebub theory, I guess...? Beez wants Crowley kept informed about the danger, so that he’ll continue to keep Gabriel safe, but they get to keep up plausible deniability with Shax and the other demons that they’re only threatening Crowley.

- Poor Shax. Crowley’s bullying her.

- LOL are all the other demons afraid of driving at high speeds? (See: Hastur.) All he had to do to get rid of Shax was rev the engine.

---

- I like Maggie, but she’s a little clingy with Aziraphale. You’d think the euphoria of having 8 months of overdue rent forgiven would have lasted longer than 24 hours. On the other hand, her encyclopaedic knowledge of music history is really cool.

- Aziraphale conducting every time he sings Everyday is the cutest thing ever.

---

- Crowley orders Talisker! I assume John Finnemore insisted.

- OMG, Mr. Brown is holding a newspaper with THEE headline in it about the Nebraska woman who taught her duck to play the accordion.

- “Get humans wet, and staring into each others’ eyes. Vavoom.” I. I don’t think Crowley knows where babies come from either.

- THAT JANE AUSTEN LORE. AND CROWLEY DISAPPROVES?? SHE SOUNDS AWESOME

---

- Aziraphale is so hesitant when he says he doesn’t think God wants to kill Job’s children, and so utterly certain when he says he knows Crowley doesn’t want to. He already has more faith in Crowley’s mercy than God’s. 😭

- THE UNBELIEVABLE LEVELS OF SASS

- OK Ty Tennant is very funny

- Both the older kids treating Aziraphale like a waiter is hilarious actually, as is Jemima wanting to be a blue lizard and Crowley obliging

- I’ve been jossed a bunch already this season, but the biggest shock to my system by far is Crowley tempting Aziraphale into enjoying human food. I genuinely assumed Aziraphale has been nibbling on whatever was around to nibble on since he was first deployed on Earth. It took him a millennia and a half to try barbeque?? Poor deprived bb

- Whoever wrote that post about Aziraphale discovering honey and tearing into a beehive like an especially feral Winnie The Pooh, I hope they’re patting themself on the back right now.

- I am more into the sight of Michael Sheen falling onto an entire ox corpse like a starving werewolf than I am comfortable with, but fine, I guess this is who I am now.

- ALL I’M SAYING IS, Crowley and Aziraphale’s first kiss had better go EXACTLY like this.

---

- I’m here for hungover Crowley wobbling across the sand.

- I suspect this minisode is difficult to follow for any viewers who didn’t swot up on the Book of Job a fortnight or so ago, like I assume we all did.

- Michael is the only angel in this scene who possesses more than a single braincell, but they’re all clearly thick as can be. The only people thicker than them are Job and Ennon, who are somehow even worse at lying than Aziraphale and Crowley.

- Crowley has such immense fucking panache this entire episode. I do love him and his terrible beard.

---

- That little tongue in cheek thing Aziraphale does on “investigation” - he cannot get any cuter now. it’s literally impossible. please.

- Crowley slapped his hand omg

---

- Oh god, the conversation on the bench... Aziraphale is in actual tears, and Crowley is so wry and gentle and reassuring, even while delivering words that are, taken on their own, a stark form of comfort. He’s just a calm presence while Aziraphale experiences shrimp emotions on the other side of the bench. I can’t even speak about Aziraphale, honestly, but I’ll give it a shot... he is so brave and scared 😭😭😭 Hell?? He really thought he belonged in Hell? Crowley was absolutely right to gently laugh at a notion that ridiculous (and awful) (and then again, Crowley also used to be a sweet little curly-headed bunny of an angel, and look at the unspeakable thing that happened to him). There’s that little moment where Crowley says he’s not going to tell anyone, and asks Aziraphale if he’s going to tell anyone, and Aziraphale gives this little ashamed headshake, like he’s realising for the first time that he’s not, he’s willing to lie (by omission) about this too. And then he glances at the sky, as if verifying that God isn’t going to send down a thunderbolt, and realises that he’s actually safe. There aren’t going to be any consequences; he’s going to get away with it. And that’s almost worse, the idea that he doesn’t live in a world with clearly defined rules, and he truly can’t predict what God thinks, or what she is going to do. She spoke directly to Job, but she’s a closed book to Aziraphale.

---

- The ending credits are on fire so far this season.

---

Right, um, next up, an episode I haven’t already seen. asdhkagsd.
