Vox
Tumblr media
In all honesty...he finds it adorable, now will he admit that is another question with a different answer..
I'm sure he's seen many upon many of cat demons in his years damned to hell, but you are different in a way he can't pin point. Maybe it's the way your tail flicks when you see him, or how your pupils grow big just at the sight of him. It's honestly a knock out for him
He finds himself curious on how your ears and tail feel. But he would never touch it unless you offer him first which he exeitedly bun-gurglingly agrees.
He's a man that's excellent at words and selling something to you. But when it comes time to actually show Affection it's...a bit rough to say the least.
He buys you special types of conditioner and shampoo for your fur, one of the finest brand might i add, which he hands to you. Simply stating "well if your gonna be seen around me of course you gotta look your best" not that he actually cares for you and wants you happy of course! He's an overlord he has a status to up hold!
Now when it comes to you actually doing cat like things he finds it very interesting and honestly adorable-
I mean look how can he not melt when your purring out words after landing on the soft couch in his office.
One time he petted the top of your head and you let out purr, when I tell you this man’s knees were weak I MEAN IT
he just has a special soft spot for you and the things you do. Like when you were over at his place about to crash on his bed but you just started kneading the soft blanket.
Look he’s a hater on the outside but a lover on the inside he has to keep a rough attitude in a place like hell. But when you guys are alone he’s doting on you more then an actual person with a cat. He just can’t help it
He loves cuddling with you at night, like the warmth you provide him is enough to make him short circuit . Hell is hot enough but your warmth is different kind of warmth, not just the overheating and overwhelming temperature of hell, but the homey feeling you get form a nice hug.
He especially loves when you wrap your tail around him or his like leg i don’t know something about it makes him lose his mind!
Although he dose have to admit finding you asleep in unexpected areas is something he doesn’t hate but doesn’t exactly like either. He quite literally has the best bed and sheets of hell just for you and you still decide to spreed out and take a nap on counter. Now that is something he will never understand
Overall though he loves you to the lower levels of he’ll and back <3

Oh boy… time for our favorite monkey boy phew alright…
First of all get ready for his lil cheeky self to go around and start scaring you
You know that old trend where cat owners would throw cucumbers at their cat? Yea that’s what he dose, not only that but 60% of the time it lands smack dab on your head like it seems intentional from how many times he’s smacked you by accident.
He honestly understands how sensitive ears and tails could be so he would never yank or pull on it as a joke. Trust me he gets and understands your pain very much.
His love language is grooming, so he’s happily sit for a good while just looking through your fur and picking out small particles or maybe small dirt specs. And he loves when you do the same! Honestly a very cute bonding moment he finds it relaxing!
I feel like cat demons are a bit rare to come by, (my guess don’t quote me on this) so he finds your quite cool to look at! Especially if you have some sort of pattern or rare fur color!. He asks you all sorts of questions please don’t mind him he’s honestly curious.
He purrs too so this man dos won’t discriminate when you do it, he honestly finds it adorable just like Vox!, but unlike Vox he doesn’t mind voicing it. Although he dose it too he loves teasing you for it, jokingly of course!
Please send this man your fur care cause lord knows he probably doesn’t own the right things to take care of his fur. He appreciates if you take a day off just to show him, also massaging some of the conditioner/shampoo in his scalp will make him purr and is greatly appreciated.
Honestly I feel like he’d get jealous of those who you also let touch your fur and other stuff. He won’t cop you on it! But he loves when it feels like something only he can do and you trust him with.
As kneading this man has A TONNN of blankets collected through the years of stealing or getting gifted it. So he has tons of blankets on his bed and if he sees you kneading them he’d probably let out a loud “Awe” before tackling you. He finds it adorable! What can he say?
He has good pulse control now then when he did in his younger years but still can you really expect him not to smoother you with affection from how absolutely adorable your being?!?? (≧◡≦) ♡
Please please PLEASE let this man intertwine tails with you or make like a heart shape out of your tail’s. He just finds it so comforting and adorable!
Overall have a cat demon S/O has to be the best for him, he just loves you! And he is very affectionate, it takes him a bit to show it but after a while he’s all over you! O(≧▽≦)O

hey, can you make Miguel O'Hara X gender neutral reader? Where reader (Miguel lover) accidentally get teleport or glitch in the spider verse where they (the Spidey's) were in the middle of chasing miles? Thank you! <3
Tumblr media
hi anon. i'm happy to write this for you.
i wrote this in the form of headcanons rather than a fic. i'm still recuperating from finishing dragon age: inquisition, the succession finale (even if it was like a week ago), my adrenaline high from the across the spiderverse, and the other things i have written already.
some creative additions i made: this is a spidey! reader. i think it naturally made more sense to have a spidey! reader rather than a civilian. i would have to jump through a lot of hoops for a civilian reader to make sense and my brain does not have the capacity to jump through those hoops right now.
Tumblr media
you deserved a well needed rest. after all the work you had been pulling to keep the multiverse safe, it was the least you deserved. especially a nap.
what you didn't expect when you went home was to just fall asleep on the couch.
you had gone out with your friends, finally caught up with them, and changing into some comfortable lounging clothes. you had plans to watch the newest 3 hour long ego project the director called a movie. and naturally because it was 3 hours long and an ego project filled with nothing, you ended up falling asleep.
what you forgot to take off was your multiversal band. you always kept it on in case of emergencies.
you also had a habit of rolling around in your sleep a bit. and you don't have the best luck with technology.
naturally your band malfunctions and you're thrown into the portal and transported back to hq.
ideally you didn't want to be falling through the space. but you were. and that woke you up.
"fuck! fuck! fuck!"
you had no web shooters. why would you? who sleeps with web shooters anyways? (actually there are some spider people that might)
and the worst part is, no one seemed to notice that you were falling. because they were busy doing something else.
when you squinted your eyes, you saw what was happening: every single spider-person that was at hq was chasing after one singular spider-person.
you didn't know who it was but from the looks of it, it looked like a young spider-person. someone who was only a kid.
if only you weren't just free falling-
"(y/n)! what are you doing here!" a familiar voice exclaims.
he caught you in midair, swinging safely to the nearest platform that wasn't stampeding with spider people and other variations of spider totems to set you down.
you took in his appearance. his hair was disheveled and his fangs were poking out. you also noticed his talons were out too and his breathing was heavy.
"i...i was teleported here on accident." you explain. "what is going on?"
"i can't talk right now. go back home! it's supposed to be your day off!" he gives you a small kiss on your cheek and prepares himself to jump off the platform.
"miguel, who is that?"
"miles morales. he disrupted a canon event and now the multiverse is at stake! and we're trying to prevent him from causing another one."
"okay well did you try talking to him?"
"of course!" he exclaims, turning to look at you. "it's the first thing i did. but he doesn't want to listen. now i have to catch him before he disappears!"
he doesn't even wait for you to respond before jumping off. as much as miguel loved you and loved talking to you and cherished your presence, he had to catch up to miles. he had to stop him.
he had to save the multiverse.
you were left with a sinking pit in your stomach. something told you that today was not the day to take off.
but first you needed to find lyla or margo to help with your watch so you can grab your suit and equipment and come back.

Miguel vs very angry reader? Miguel is usually the one who is grumpy and broody but for a change has to deal with his usually cheery lover being unbelievably Moody and angry!
lo siento, mi alma
Tumblr media
pairing: miguel o'hara x spiderwoman!reader
warnings: angst, comfort, fluff, happy ending, miguel kinda being a dick
summary: coming to miguel for comfort leads to a fight, his duty coming right between you
Usually, you would feel so happy and excited about visiting Miguel at HQ. You'd find yourself smiling so stupidly on the way there, surprised with your reflection in a nearby skyscraper, instantly reminded that you're so in love with him. 
But today wasn't one of those days.
Today, your monthly hormonal storm has decided to mess with your mood and patience in a way you weren't looking forward to. Usually, you'd feel more clingy and emotional, yearning to be close to your boyfriend, to be held by him, to cry in his arms because you were out of your favourite snacks. 
But then again, today remains odd among the usual habits.
Today, you felt anger boil in your throat, ready to burst at the slightest inconvenience. And plenty have already tested it. Miles scared the crap out of you by swinging an inch from hitting you, right before scurrying away with an echoed "Hello!" that rang so stridently in your ears. Peter also intercepted your wish-to-be-hidden trip to HQ, unsolicitedly informing you about the last thing Mayday ate, how cute she looked, and how she's been learning to use her webs with more agility. You held back your bubbling nerves, deep down knowing he only meant well.
Finally inside Miguel's extensive laboratories, you look up to spot the platform he usually inhabited empty. 
Great. Fucking hell.
And because expecting something good to happen and then having it snatched from you like a chocolate from a toddler makes you unfathomably angry, you feel hot tears sting your eyes.
You had wanted the comfort of his embrace so bad. It was the only thing that could've soothed your mood. So you found a flat surface to sit on and wait, probably one of the many machines and equipment he spent his whole time creating and testing instead of giving you the attention and love you craved so much, you thought.
It wasn't long before a long, sharp, red blade cut through the fabric of space, followed by the familiar silhouette of your beloved boyfriend. His mask dissolved away, revealing a terribly tired face, hair messed up and cheekbone slightly mauve with a forming bruise. 
He sensed you in the room, not bothering to offer you anything more than a turn of his head in your direction to meet your eyes before sprinting to his platform. Layla also glitched into the room, relaxed as usual. 
You squint, making out "canon divergence RESOLVED" on one of his screens, some hope blooming in your heart at the thought that maybe now he'd have time for you. But before you can inhale to speak, he opens up another portal.
You can't believe it. He didn't even speak to you, like you aren't his heart and soul, as he had told you so many times. 
So you snap.
"Miguel!" You shout, quick and harsh, wanting him to feel a fraction of the frustration that's gutting you right now.
He doesn't flinch.
"I'm busy. Wait for me at home." He speaks with authority and the confidence of a man who knows it wouldn't take much to make you listen to him.
You feel your pulse quicken, heart stuttering with anger and bewilderment.
"That's how much my emotions matter to you?" You shout up to him after a second of weighing his words. "That's the support and consideration I get?" Your voice cracks and you hate that he now knows how affected you are.
"I'm not even a fucking priority at this point. I'm at the bottom of the list."
"I can't deal with this right now. I still have the damage the last anomaly has done to deal with." He raises his voice at you, the words vibrating through the laboratory.
"So I'm on hold until Miguel O'Hara is fucking available? Will you also notify me so that I can present myself back to HQ, sir?" Your tone is dripping venom, sarcasm and sour tears threatening to burst into streams down your cheeks. You do, consider, in the back of your mind, that you're exaggerating. But the way he dismissed you is not an easy thing to get over. No greetings, no emotion, no nothing.
Just "I'm busy.".
No excitement to see you after a mission.
How are you any different than any other spider-person bothering him then? Where is the love he has for you when he's working?
He grinds his jaws together, not wanting to say something he doesn't mean, that he'll regret later. He knows you're particularly sensitive today, but he can't allow himself to soften right in the middle of a job. It's not how he works. He gets distracted.
"I said go home, cariño." He doesn't even face you as he speaks, as if you're a child throwing a tantrum.
You feel small. Irrelevant. He isn't even touched.
"Oh I will." You yell through a sob, your pain arrowing right through his chest.
"Only not to your home." 
You storm out without looking behind. Your ego soared and anger kept rising to your senses. 
You knew you wouldn't break up, or even move out. You just wanted him to feel something. 
You wanted to see him want you. To see him make the slightest gesture towards wanting to keep you by his side.
But the doors closed shut behind you, and you found yourself walking slower, just to give him some time to run after you.
He didn't.
You did your best to hide your teary eyes and runny nose, not wanting to deal with any unwanted attention, any questions, anyone knowing that you and Miguel just had a fight.
You didn't want anyone else's attention but his, and it killed you to acknowledge that.
You got home, finally breaking into tears. You let yourself fall face down into his pillow, still seeking the comfort he never gave you. The smell of him, the imagined, simulated warmth of his embrace.
He had a duty, you know he did. You just wanted to be more than a chore to him. You wondered if this relationship really was for you, head spiralling into the hormones, stress, and wrath. 
You, a needy, extremely loving girlfriend, with a man like him, with a full time job that entire universes depended on. You loved him, you really did. But you loved yourself too. 
The train of thought drifted towards sympathy as the flames of rage ran cold within you. Maybe you were too hard on him. Maybe he really did have urgent things to tend to, and was just trying to keep cool. He hasn't always been the best at showing emotions. 
You whine softly into the pillow, the scent of him flooding your already fluttering heart.
You don't know how much time has passed. You felt your tears dry on your cheeks and your eyes puffy. A creak of the bedroom door makes your heart beat right out of your chest, yet you attempt to stay calm. Heavy footsteps near you, before you see his shadow engulf your shape on the white mattress. 
He hesitates, looking at your quivering body, knowing he should haven't arrived earlier.
If only he could.
Your brows shoot up in surprise at the sight of a bouquet of roses he places on the bed next to you, but you don't get to think of what to say as he kneels at the edge, encircling your waist in his arms, placing his head on your shoulder, close to your own.
"Lo siento mucho, mi alma. Forgive me."
You snivel, humming a fragment of his name. He shuffles closer, seeing no retreat from you. He brings his lips to your stained cheeks, pecking over the salty traces. 
You instinctively shift into his warm embrace, chasing the comfort and touch you had wanted all day. 
"I'm sorry," you begin, "I shouldn't have-"
"Shh, no need" he stops you, pressing a sweet kiss shy of your lips. "No need, mi vida."
His arms tighten their hold around you as he pulls you to his chest. You grab at his biceps, pulling him on the bed. 
"The roses-" He whispers, hurriedly.
"Miguel!" You whine, entrapping his waist with your legs. He complies without another word; suit on, flowers still on the white sheets. With his massive body wrapped around you, finally content, you drift into a sweet slumber.
"Lo siento."
His voice rings low and quiet in your ears as you fall asleep, head on his chest.
translations: Lo siento mucho, mi alma - I'm terribly sorry, (my soul)
a/n: before yall beat my ass for the angst this is the best depiction of miguel x reader x anger issues from both that came to my mind, really hope you like it😭

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY TWO RUNNER TWINS: JAYSEN & VIJAY
[NC_RES]_00002727 mercs_steyr_twins_001_MB10_CT_WA.file ///core:_bi-runners.file\\\
⚠️ READ: Please do not repost/reupload any of my art here or to any other platform, or I will be forced to do anything to get it annihilated.
They don't look like netrunners but they are – a very special and unique kind of runners <3
And I hope to picture this special kind more in the future.
I love they look so alike but at the same time so different. They grew up apart from each other. Only met in their 30s. Jay knew about V, but V didn't. Together they are unstoppable and might turn everything into trouble. FYI: Vijay is the more reserved of the two, Jaysen the rowdy one, but when Jay is around V, he tends to infect V with it as well.
I wanted to take proper pics but my game didn't let me yesterday. The more glad I was I took these two shots last Sunday after updating Jay as i feared I would not get to it (more bc of work, not the game refusing to load the save file).
Somehow I had the idea to add some weird glitch effect. This is just me experimenting. Might or might not refine this into something.
I'm just so happy I created Jay for V as the 'older' brother <3 The idea of him started about a year ago. Idk anymore when exactly but I know I must have created Jay by the end of March? I have to look it up! V whereas has been around since game release but I will give him his creation day in August (2022) when I made him as pc version instead of December (2020).

Tears of the Kingdom: Final Trailer Analysis
This is most likely the last teaser we're going to get before the game's release in three months, and hoo boy, did Nintendo not hold back with this one.
Unlike my previous set of trailer breakdowns, this one's also going to factor in the audio. Because the audio for this gives some very telling details.
Let's start with the first shot.
Tumblr media
Unfortunately, the video starts off a bit grainy due to the rain contrast. This clears itself up later, but it makes these initial first few seconds a bit hard to make out. The clearest one I could get is the one above, where the lightning strike is visible, but the flash has already passed.
Tumblr media
Death Mountain is ablaze with malice, as we saw in previous trailers.
Tumblr media
The shrines are encased in green spirals.
Tumblr media
Then after that, the graininess starts to clear up, and we see these strange new enemies
Tumblr media
I'm going to call them kargarocs. I'll get to why later.
Tumblr media
With another flash of lightning, the scene finally gets into proper definition, and we can make a few things out.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Bokoblins patrol the ruins these kargarocs are guarding
Tumblr media
And it's right beside a misty, deciduous forest. The mist seems like a new element of the game rather than weather we can pinpoint, however.
Tumblr media
Then, up in the sky, only visible thanks to the lightning, we can see an island with a structure on it.
Tumblr media
The light fades, and-
Tumblr media
Look at that design! It looks somewhere between a keese and a toadpoli. The feet can definitely grab things, but the throat pouch makes me think this thing might spit acid.
Tumblr media
Next we have a shot of the Hyrulean countryside, facing Hebra from the southeast.
Tumblr media
The first thing that stands out is this rune. We saw it in the last trailer, too, though this one appears more yellow than teal; it could be lighting, or it could be a different effect.
Tumblr media
We have what appears to be a Sheikah tower, surrounded by light. The core is orange, though, indicating that it's disabled, and it looks to be missing its top; upon closer inspection, the sides seem more organic in shape than the rigid towers we're used to:
Tumblr media
Then when the lightning strikes the scene
Tumblr media
We can see a very interesting-looking shape in the sky.
Tumblr media
It looks like it might be the source of this thunderbolt, but more importantly, it looks like it's hiding something. Possibly the temple thing from the 2021 trailer?
Tumblr media
We then move on to the isles
Tumblr media
This isn't a lot to look at at first, just some mossy ruins, with clouds covering up identifying features. However
Tumblr media
What is this? A weight? A checkpoint? Why is it orange? Does it need to be activated?
Then the clouds move.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
These ruins here look a lot like the Sacred Ground Ruins in BotW, where Link was recognized as hero.
Tumblr media
There are some key differences, though. For one, the platform has no pillars at its center, instead four structures being seen towards the back.
Tumblr media
Then there's the big block of a building it's attached to on the right.
Tumblr media
Moving on from this, we can also notice another glowing rune
Tumblr media
Which looks to be the same one from the first scene, just from a different angle.
Tumblr media
What I'm most interested in, however, are the meteor spots beside the Sacred Ground.
Tumblr media
Because I recognize that.
That's Gisa Crater.
Tumblr media
It's just south of Rito territory. There's a Talus there, and a shrine with a glitch that lets you fall forever. I used it to make Link into a barcode.
Continuing this in a Part 2, because I'm out of image space. I'll edit this with a link to it once it's done.
Edit: Part 2!

The bugs one encounters while developing a voxel game
I've been digging through my old Twitter posts recently, trying to get everything of "value" off of the platform, and I found a bunch of posts with glitched / broken images of my game in it, and I thought, hell, why not? Here's a little gallery of the neatest bugs that I bothered to take pictures of.
Tumblr media
This funky grass happened when I was working on leaf swaying particles. I accidentally applied it to the grass blocks instead of the tall grass, and I had the intensity multiplied by a factor of 10.
Tumblr media
This was... meant to be a wireframe model, to show you what you're pointing at. I don't even know what happened to it here!
Tumblr media
Shaders breaking can sometimes lead to really satisfying results... I believe I accidentally routed texture coordinates directly to the fragment shader output somehow, resulting is this very dreamlike effect.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Back when I was still storing partial chunks -- chunks containing only structure data that spanned a chunk boundary while generating -- in the regular chunk array, it was possible for the game to mistakenly believe these chunks were complete and render them. These chunks were default-filled with id 0, the invalid block, which only meant to appear when a block from a mod that has been removed is loaded. They were a slightly scary sight, looming over the horizon.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
A while back, when I was working on the GUI system of the game, I added an API to programatically crop and resize textures, which caused a lot of problems and memory corruptions. I'm not a very careful programmer :)
Despite how annoying debugging can be, it can be fun seeing the chaos that bugs can throw at you. I just wish I got more stuff like this and less Segmentation Fault (Core Dumped).
Do check out our Discord server if you want to see more nonsense, or if you'd like to involve yourself with the project. I'd love to say hi!

Hehe I got more screenshots. Still finding it difficult to get Vanny and Vanessa in the same room unfortunately, for now that blurry screenshot is the best I can get. So! Interesting thing, the glitch filter multiplies so heavily on each Vanny that this is her jumpscare when you have multiple spawned. (I'm pretty sure her normal jumpscare is more red)
Tumblr media
Here's a couple other screenshots while I spam a wall of text about this glitch
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
So basically the way I got this glitch in the first place was doing the atrium section, hopping over the security barriers to get out of bounds and grab the security badge from the prize counter, getting me security level 4 if I remember right.
Unfortunately there's not much else I can do from here besides go down the elevator and just use my security badge to skip the endo section.
(If you do this without getting the map bot jumpscare he won't spawn in and you get softlocked from entering the endo section ever again. Just a little side note.)
If I try to get the party pass early, timelord Moon insta-kills me. No escape. After doing the Freddy repair I can head up the elevator to Rockstar Row. (thankfully it's pretty simple, which is good because I need to repeat this glitch back from the beginning to make this work.)
From here I can do the glitch with or without getting the party pass. Vanessa acts very.. odd during this mess. I think some part of her AI realizes she's not supposed to be here. Last time she followed the Vannies to El chips before realizing and running off, never to be seen again. This time I led the Vannies to Rockstar Row so I figured Vanessa would stick around. Nope. She wandered around with her idle animation for a while before running off towards backstage, never to be seen again. They were in the same room for a while but I couldn't get a screenshot with both of them in the frame because of the view from cams.
Ironically I'm more afraid of Vanessa than I am of the Vanny swarm. Vanessa is half-giga honestly, like the monty in the daycare. She keeps going after you for a while and her pathing is really smart. For all I know she could pop up at any second. At least the vannies walk slow and are predictable lol.
Speaking of.. because it spawns in Vanny from the atrium (literally all I did to spawn them was walk in vaguely the direction of the escalator near fazerblast. For some reason this time it spawned in 3 at a time, last few times I did this glitch it was 4 at a time. Idk what I did differently.) Anyway back to the topic. Atrium Vanny has a constant tracker on you, but she can only walk. She can't do the horrifying t pose and run that lost and found Vanny does. (Highly recommend getting a save for that point in the game. Her AI is fun to mess around with.) She'll constantly chase you unless you do one of two things (with pretty intelligent pathing most of the time too.) If you use Freddy as a door, like I did. Or if you walk on an elevated surface she can't jump to, for example the boxes near the vent in Freddy's room. Doing this is really interesting actually. If you get her stuck behind a door she can't access (Freddoor or the door to El chips, since you need to crouch to get in.) She just keeps skipping to your location. But if you jump on a platform they all freeze in place, doing their idle animation but it's basically walking in place. It's very hivemind behavior lol, that's how I get the majority of these screenshots.
It's really interesting to me and I'm definitely gonna keep messing with it lol. Hope this ramble was more entertaining than a boring wall of text, this glitch is really fun to experiment with, if you'd want to hear/see more about it I'd totally be up to share more screenshots the more I experiment with this glitch :)
Oh my god i am obsessed. Overpowered vanessa (who can Find you) just going oh shit . Wait I’m not supposed to be here. What the fuck why are there 500 of me. And just sprinting from the room is so fucking funny…… and then she is never seen again omg.
Also TIMELORD MOON LMAO…
Ur not boring at all this is quite fascinating. The vannies skipping around in a single file line is fantastic. Also yeah vanny jumpscare is usually a lot more red oh no…her LED eyes ran out of battery:(

have you played any of the paw patrol video games?
I've only played three of them; "PAW Patrol: On a Roll", "PAW Patrol: Mighty Pups Save Adventure Bay", and "PAW Patrol: A Day in Adventure Bay". The first two on PC/Steam, and the last on Android.
Tumblr media
I don't have much to say about On a Roll. It was interesting when I first started playing, but for me, it got boring after a while. I understand it's for a very young audience, but I wish they would've eased up on the tutorials. Restricting Everest and Tracker to the last few stages was kind of silly, imo. Well, if anything, seeing Marshall pull a Super Mario Sunshine across a lake was pretty entertaining. 😄
Tumblr media
Mighty Pups Save Adventure Bay was a lot better, imo. Switching from a 2D platformer to 3D was a smart idea, and as someone who enjoys collectathons, I had some fun with it. It's still pretty easy, but I understand it's designed that way. With that said, it was surprisingly short, especially compared to the first game, and there were certain tasks that dragged the game down a bit. Still, out of the two, I recommend it a lot more. Including a Pup Pup Boogie mini-game was also pretty cool.
Tumblr media
PAW Patrol: A Day in Adventure Bay was cute, since it lets you take care of the pups, play some frisbee with them, etc. There's not a whole lot to it otherwise, but for the price, I can't complain. Admittedly, I played this one once a day for nearly a month, and of course, I always selected Marshall... and apparently the game didn't expect this, as it eventually glitched and kept giving me the same mission every time. Ah well, I easily got my money out of it.
Tumblr media
I don't plan on playing any of the other games, except maybe PAW Patrol: Grand Prix. I've been curious about it for a while, if only so I can play as Marshall in his Ready Race Rescue gear & vehicle. I've heard it's also easy, and given I'm used to playing Mario Kart at 150cc, I don't know how much enjoyment I'll get out of it. Admittedly, that's why these PAW Patrol games don't exactly appeal to me, since I'm so used to games for an older crowd (Spyro the Dragon, The Legend of Zelda, Mega Man, Metroid, etc). Thus, I may not be the best person to ask for recommendations in terms of PAW Patrol games.

If we look at CTT's streams I'm pretty impressed. We did 5.7m unfiltered. the problem was that we had big filtering rate which many said could be because we had no playlist and the leak of CTT at different date (which wasn't version but it was still showing up on Spotify ig so ppl over used it or something like that). We really need to work on the filtering rate tho. Tae's new song something around 6.2m unfiltered and we got 5.7m with 36hrs notice period so i think alot were tuned in even if got short notice period.
I really hope we have got better with streaming cause whatever his next release is we have to show good results there too. We can't just be fixated on LC now that it's a year old song. We have to be good with most of the new release if not all. I mean not every song is gonna do good but we can try with as many as we can. If the music is great (like all his solo songs) then that would already do half work. Also after the 1b target we can also try to bring his other songs on chart or atleast SMF2 till next song.
If Only that ass company would move for him ever
Filtering is such a finicky matter, because I have noticed that out of all the recent releases, hobi has had the lowest. Honestly can’t remember the last time a member had under 1M filtered much less 500k. I’ve seen people (mostly Hobi biased/solos trying to shade maknae line) claim it’s due to more “real people” streaming. Which *might* have truth to it, but we all know everybody uses multiple accounts to stream songs/that 20x method and hyung line isn’t exempt just because they get a lower filter rate. So anybody who tries to act like it’s only maknae line fans who do it are lying.
Jimin’s Spotify numbers are so evenly distributed and not just skewed towards one country I don’t think that’s the main issue for him. I do think the glitch with CTT played a role in fucking us over because a near 50% rate is egregious. BTS dealt with the same in the past as well, especially with Butter so idk. We really do need to work on it though within the parameters that we can actually control.
Using LC to test our stability and improving on other platforms is very useful though, doesn’t matter if it’s a year old. And it’s not like we’re gonna prioritize it once the new release drops, and if we can keep it charting during it then that’s good too. I’m glad pjms have taken the initiative to better themselves. I agree with bringing SMF2 back to Spotify though we could also use some practice on our multitasking as well.

to be quite frank, there is very little writers still striking at this point from what i have seen, and i've searched on twitter in every way i can. maybe i'm missing them because of twitter glitches or not using the right keywords. i dunno. i only know myself and two of my friends. anyone else who was has since rescinded their decision, which is of course their right-- but it was also right before the last episodes, which made the current ridiculous spam wave as i anticipated unfortunately.
a friend who has since left the bsd fandom but is known as one of the most well known skk writers just one off mentioned considering locking their fics in a reply to me to help with the situation, and immediately after, there was a whole 24 hour silence on spam fics. it has suspiciously dropped significantly. if bigger writers were to help smaller writers on a platform meant for all of us, this wouldve been fixed the same day it started. that's direct proof of it in my opinion.
i think protecting this community we all share is worth not getting a bit of validation on a fic for a day or two on ao3 (especially bc we can all just get it... on our other accounts...), but some don't want to do that. which is fine. we all have our reasons. but ending this is very clearly possible if we're all to help each other as equals. all i can do is keep repeating myself, or the children finally realize their grades are slipping too much and give the bullshit up. at this point i don't know which one is going to happen first.
it's just disappointing to keep watching, knowing that the only ones who are really suffering the most from these spam works burying content by the literal dozens are rarepair / small writers.
regardless which side you're on about locking or not locking, just keep reporting these works and discouraging those who don't think this is a big deal.
some of these spammers are even using alt languages to put their spam under, which is obscenely demeaning when they're disrespecting these languages. hell, there's a fucking keysmash fic in the daran tag right now thats the ONLY HAWAIIN FIC ON AO3 RIGHT NOW. and it's KEYSMASH BULLSHIT. using indigenous and endangered languages for your childish bullshit is straight ignorant at best, racist at worst. we can't keep letting this go on bro.

Let's talk about Sequence Breaking
Sequence Breaking has got to be one of the most satisfying things I've ever seen in a videogame
And I'm talking about intentional breaks. Yeah yeah sure, stuff involving glitches and exploits is also impressive, hell even more so, you might even argue that it's not a "true" sequence break unless it's 100% unintended
But I love the idea of a game giving you the means to obtain items earlier than intended and telling you "are you skilled enough to do it?"
This is why I will forever defend Super's Wall Jump
"But it's too finicky and the timing is weird it sucks!"
Yeah sorry to sound like an elitist but, you don't get it
Yoy really don't
This isn't Mega Man X or Hollow Knight, where wall jumping is an integral part of the platforming that you have to perform on the regular, here wall jumping is akin to a cheat code: something you're not supposed to use (though you actually are in reality) and that is only required to break the game. If wall jumping were as easy as in those games then sequence breaking wouldn't be nearly as satisfying since even a baby could pull it off. Wall Jumping in this game is SUPPOSED to require skill, it is MEANT to be somewhat finicky to an extent. Not that I won't have some negatives to talk about concerning this game's controls, though manybe next time...
I personally find it weird how this game's sequence breaking continues to be my favorite. since both Zero Mission and Dread handle it better in some areas
Zero Mission just flat out has more of it: Super kinda stops having any more real sequence breaking instances (again: excluding glitches) after Norfair. There's that early Energy Tank in that water room in the Wrecked Ship I guess? But after that pretty much everything can be obtained on your first run through an area with the skills that you already have. You can't even get the Screw Attack early to my understanding
Dread doesn't have as much sequence breaking as the other 2, and some of it is pretty stupidly implemented (why should I bother with the early Super Missiles and the Kraid Bomb insta kill when those require MORE backtracking that just doing things by the book?), but others not only result in less backtracking but also in some actual gameplay advantages: getting the Grapple Beam early allows you to skip two slow water sections in Burenia a little later and getting the early Gravity Suit (and the early Screw Attack that's pretty much connected to it) allows you to absolutely rip Ferenia open like a tin can, especially if you also get the Space Jump before the Storm Missiles, allowing you to go wherever you want, destroy the boss with no effort and make a joke out of its EMMI Zone. By contrast sequence breaking in Super only really results in cutting back on backtracking: what do you get from early Power Bombs? Eh I guess you regain access to Crateria and Brinstar earlier.... it's kinda useless though. Early Spazer and Wave Beams? Kinda useful but it's not like enemies are super tough here and they don't really open new areas or shortcuts. Ever Zero Mission's sequence breaking gives you more practical advantages sometimes: early Varia Suit? More defense earlier on and you can use it to explore some extra rooms in Norfair earlier. Early Screw Attack and Super Missiles? Those speak for themselves
However I can't help but find Super's more fun to pull off
Every instance of sequence breaking in Super is a matter of pure skill and imagination: YOU have to pull off those wall jumps and shinesparks, YOU have to make those long jumps after running certain distances
By contrast sequence breaking in ZM and Dread tends to be more dependent on finding secret passages. You want to fight Ridley first in ZM? Find the secret shaft in Norfair. Early Screw Attack? You gotta know there are some secret missile blocks in the room right below it. Wanna skip the Long Beam? You gotta know that there are a few secret breakable blocks
Dread is a bit of both worlds in a way: getting the Grapple Beam early requires you to find a secret passage yes, but you must also be able to use your slide jump really well to go through said passage. Getting the Gravity Suit as early as possible also requires you to be skilled with the shinespark both to reach the Green Teleportal early and to clear the Shinespark puzzle required to access the secret route
This isn't a bad way to go about things by any means, hell it's appropriate for adventure games! But I also find it inherently less interesting and intuitive than Super's
In this game it's all about "Hmm... this looks like I can wall jump here and access this door earlier!" It's all about intuitively approaching the level design once you have a good unserstanding of your abilities and have some good creativity with your movements. It's not even just about sequence breaking per se though that's for another time
In those other two you mostly just gotta know that at X spot you can shoot thus revealing a secret passage, which is satisfying the first time but then that's it
Anyway Maridia is actually pretty good.
First off, for the "Muh Maridia tube" crowd: did you know that there's another entrance to Maridia accessible from the Wrecked Ship? It'll take you to a damp region in Crateria full of dead ends but using the X Ray Scope on one of them reveals a breakable wall, and boom: entrance to Maridia!
Second: The area is certainly much bigger than the others and the game has pretty much stopped nudging you in any particular direction....but honestly it's really not so bad once you notice that you'll be mostly just moving from left to right to reach Draygon and that you'll have to avoid the bottom half of the map
However if we wanna talk about problems then yeah the sand pits and sandfalls are really awkward and not in a fun way. The room just before Draygon's where it's full of sand and the game wants you to use the Grapple Beam in very precise manners is kinda bad. Yeah I used the wall jump to get through it much quicker and easier....but as I said this is an ability that's secret, you shouldn't be depending on it to not have an awkward time with level design
Then there's the process of 100%ing this place which requires you to go through half of it twice just for those items hidden in those two secret sand pit rooms.
This is dumb. Very dumb. People complain about the "final victory laps" in the next games, and we'll get to those, but this is honestly just stupid and nonsensical as it adds nothing to the experience, it's not challenging, it doesn't require any real routing as there are only 2 possible routes you can go about this to my knowledge. It's just a big time waster
(also I've always thought that they gave you the Spring Ball this late as a joke. Why is it here?)
You wanna know an issue that I have with this game? The fact that the goddamn full item jingle plays when you get every single item expansion. EVERY.SINGLE.ONE.
In the last two games and those afterwards either the item jingle is really short or there's a much shorter jingle that plays out with minor items.
Here it's the full thing every single time. Not only is this aggravating as fuck when you're going for 100%, as it stops the action for approximately 5 seconds every 5 minutes, but it also resets the fucking stage music!
Super Metroid has some of my favorite tracks in the series, yet I barely get to listen to them fully because it feels like every 3 rooms I'm getting a round of NANANANANANANANANANANANANAAAAAAAAAAA
No I don't care that Dread only gives you a couple of beeps when you get an item expansion it keeps things moving goddamnit!

Giving you an excuse to info dump about the magical girl au all you want bc I think it’s so cool and wanna hear ur inspiration for the designs
Okay here is the info dump I promise. Also thank you for all the tags they were all very nice, and they really push me to create more :)
Normal: As I always say with his design its winx and cheerleader inspired, I already dweled on the first one in a previous post so I'm gonna skip that.
I really wanted to incorporate a star motive in his costume (thus the star top which I adore but was a pain to choose colors for), because I just think it fits him very well, he does lose some of the teenie memorabilia (without the SD for san dimas and the T's in his design) because I thought it is reminicent of his departure from the costume, yet it comes after his "trying not to be himself" phase (the third outfit) so it does bring back the previous colors.
He has teal as his main color because I really like the idea of the Oaks being green, but because ge doesn't quite fit (and because he is the new generation pc) he gets mix of blue and green which is teal (also because blue and white are the schools colors but i only found that out later).
His "trying not to be himself" costume brings in elements of the others costumes, with the chunky shoes and wings from Normal, he is trying to his friends yet pieces of himself still poje through. It has red and blue for Taylor, purple for Scary and yellow and white from Link.
I imagine this look comes after his confrontation with his dad (I want him to try to not be a magical girl for a while, like with the dance arc, and when he tries to transform after his outfit glitches and his powers malfunction, later it turns into this when fightning before he has his realization and it goes to the powerup version).
The last outfit is just his everyday (I considered drawing the teenie suit but It didn't fit on the page unfortunetly lol), I imagine he wears a lot off school merch because he still misses teenie (and yes it still very much stinks).
I think he looks the most like the classic magical girl, I really enjoy the poofy skirt because I didn't draw a lot of skirts here (it either defies logic or has shorts underneath because a skirt is not practical)
Scary: again I think I talked about the first outfit previously, I did tweak the colors and design a little bit (I struggled with the hair color a bit) but nothing very major changed.
She has purple and red (classic villian colors because she is cool and edgy). I think I started this before the betrayl but the second powerup outfit definitly happens after the reveal.
She has a lot of punk and rock influance in her outfit (and yes the platforms are impractical but they do add to the vibe). She gets cool chains but no wings. Also the prop is the Kellog knife.
Her everyday outfit is one I designed a while ago yet really like (I actually made a Scary doll and She wears the same one).
Taylor: god this was such a hassle for color choices it was terrible, just hard to draw in general and I did the Hermie powerup too many details abomination.
He gets flaiming hair like his dad, its also blue like his dad. Its definitly sailor moon inspired (I'm debating whenether Hero hates super gero Taylor or likes him, either way she does point out the sailor moon similarities either as an insult for being unoriginal or as an admiration thing because she does like sailor moon) (I just realized if I make Hero a superhero she gets the tuxedo mask inspired design for sure).
There was samurai inspiration in this (thanks Usagi chronicles you have ridden my mind) and his second outfit has a very faint flower pattent which I really like.
I think apart from power up link he has the most armor. He does get wings but they are tiny and don't really work at first but then do in his power up. Which he might get after going to hell. He does get a tail which I forgot to draw and his ears get pointer (he does also have fangs which Scary is jealous of).
He gets a staff in classical magical girl fashion (and because of his sword staff) and a katana which he does summon and do cool anime stuff with, and it does catch in flames. I really enjoy the Taylor is disabled headcanon thus the staff and i do think he has compressors in his costume.
Hermie: my boy changes designs way too aften, there is his everyday pre magic (he does get the joker stuff still).
He is a magical girl that kinda just joins the gang and is kinda a trickster, Taylor and Normal don't realize he is actually Hermie for a while (Normal doesn't know the longest) while Link and Scary know very quickly (Link is annoyed at Normal for not realizing it and it becomes a gag).
There is his 1 magical girl outfit (its practiclly the same to my previous drawings of him as nothing really changed), then there is his accident outfit (he gets it after the cheese accident), his two-face arc (also talked and shown this one previously), his after the accident everyday and then his power up.
God does it have many details, there is joker, poison ivy and two-face as inspiration in it (his hat has leaves for ivy and coins for two-face). He gets two eyes in his mask and more trickstery look in ode to his father scam. I was really inspied by court jesters and harlequins. I like how he ends up looking like a fea. Oh also question marks for riddler.
He is a silly little guy and I adore him but drawing that again will be a pain.
Link: finally my boy, after Normal he was the second finished drawing. I had a slight problem with his colors, finally picking almost white, yellow and really light green.
His norma outfit is the most practical and soccer players inspired. He gets cool lightning and angel imagery (I really enjoy his contrast with Scary with her purple and black and his yellow and white). He gets cool glowing eyes because I am a sucker for inhuman traits.
His second outfit is very palladin-y, I think the lightning kinda looks like corruption which I really enjoy, he also probablly gets it after Scary's betrayl.
There is gold and copper in his design as accents. The wing shoes were hermies inspired. He gets a glowing sword. I really enjoy some of the biblical imaginery he looks connected to.
Like I said I might honestly make more refrence sheets (I am working on kiddads designs and some other charakters, escpecially villains, but that is a bit harder for me to design so we'll see). Anyway hope this wasn't too ranty and feel free to ask anything or add ideas.
Also thank you @rooolt for giving me an excuse to infodump I am a sucker for charakter design and analysis so its very nice to rant about my choices.

What if Lou painfully, desperately, and forcefully went through the portal, how would all the the other dolls react to this.
So, I'm gonna switch this up a bit if that's okay (and if not...oops)
I love the idea of Lou being able to go through the portal, really, I do. HOWEVER, it wouldn't be as effective for his backstory. Like, at the point that the Uglies get to the factory (and long before then, really) Lou is in a mental state where he is willing to do ANYTHING to escape this prison he's in. Even as far as conforming the prison into an empirical hierarchy of supremacy for himself. So, even if he were able to go through the portal -- with the only risk being unbearable pain to touch it/go through it -- Lou would not think twice about going through anyway. He would deal with any pain if it meant getting to the Big World.
This is why I'm twisting this prompt around:
<><><><><><>
The crack in the portal ripped its way across the diameter. The light flickered, tinting an opaque red where the crack sliced through. LuckyBat had sprung up in front of Lou just as he bolted forward to make the final incision. The tip was pushed back and Lou's feet skid across the ground at the loss of momentum. Lucky--now empowered by his sudden burst of courage and the surprised look on Lou's face--slung the prototype across the ground. Lou rolled and staggered to his feet. He was in front of the portal, dangerously close to touching it. He glanced behind him toward his feet, seeing the few inches between himself and the portal.
There was little time to jump out of the way before another strike hit his side. Light flooded his vision as the right side of his body finally made contact with the portal. The blue light glitched and melted into red as Lou screamed. Moxy and her friends skid to a halt from where they had been rushing to help LuckyBat. Pulsating waves of red light -- like a heartbeat -- glowed and Lou collapsed to the ground, his back still touching the portal. Lucky shook his head from his empowered daze and dropped the needle. He made half a step toward Lou before hands pulled him back.
Wage grabbed the bat by the wings and veered him back quickly as the crack in the portal reached across the entire diameter.
"Lou!" Ox's voice rang through the clearing and he panted to get back to the portal. The prototype's eyes glitched between normal to a solid glow of red across the entire expanse of his scleras.
The electric shock coursing through Lou's body made his heart race painfully. He couldn't do anything but lay helplessly as his body spasmed against the portal. His heart quickened in pace as the portal neared complete destruction. The glitching in his eyes escalated and his screams became distorted like feedback from a radio. Ox was cut short in his pursuit of his brother when the portal finally imploded and sent a shockwave through the vicinity. Ox was flung back along with many of the closer dolls.
Shards of the annealed glass scattered, mimicking a glittering ring throughout the Institute.
It was silent for a long minute once all the shards had quieted and the portal was now a hollow void. What fragments hadn't been discarded across its radius were left sticking out of the edges in jagged, piercing forms. The dolls gaped at the destruction.
Ox spared barely a glance at the ruins before looking across the stage. He pushed himself onto his feet and ran toward the center of the devastation. A few shards stuck into his feet, but he merely pushed through the pain. His friends called out to him to stop, but he didn't listen. Lou was nowhere to be found. Ox's breathing picked up speed as he turned in quick circles to try and find the blond.
"Over here!"
The bunny looked across the wayside and saw Nolan kneeling down beside the prototype.
He wasn't moving.
"Oh doll." Ox felt weak in his knees and his ears fell back limply behind his head. He hurried, jumping off the platform and narrowly skipping over what shards he could spot before running up on them.
Lou was completely limp while Nolan held his torso in his arms. Lines of fabric had been torn from stray shards hitting Lou's face and all over his body. One shard was embedded deeply into his neck. Ox, with shaky hands, cupped one paw against Lou's face while the other gingerly tugged at the glass. It sparked and Ox let go on instinct as it zapped him. It clattered against the ground. The place of insertion sparked and red streams of light flashed like lightning in Lou's neck.
There was no rise and fall motion of his chest. No twitch in his body. Nothing. Lou wasn't responding and by now the crowd had gathered, raising Ox's anxiety. "G-Get one of the robots!" He flung a paw out urgently, not taking his eye off the unconscious doll. Unconscious. Not dead. Lou couldn't be dead.
Squeaky wheels rolled up beside the three. A blue light cascaded over Lou's form and the robot beeped and registered the information. "Model 12 Prototype: Not Confirmed. Chip inactive."
"I called ya over here to help!" Ox's fur bristled. "Fix 'im! Help 'im! Do somethin'!"
"Prototype Model 12 is no longer in service." It answered monotonously.
Ox's breathing was ragged. He swallowed, looking at Lou and then at the robot. Breathlessly, "What's that supposed to mean?"
"In layman's terms, Prototype Model 12 is dead."
"Screw you," Ox turned his back on the robot. "If you won't help 'im then I will."
"Ox," Moxy said softly.
"No. He ain't dead." Ox shook his head defiantly. He took Nolan's place holding the blond. "C'mon, Lou, wake up," he shook Lou lightly. No response. "Please...Lou!" He looked at the red streams of light emanating from the hole in Lou's neck. Why...why was it not normal stuffing? They've been torn many times before and it never...it never killed them. Why wasn't Lou waking up?
"Persistence is futile," the robot continued. "His creator will be notified and another prototype will be implemented."
This made the crowd call out in a frenzy. "We don't want another one of him!"
"Yeah! He's nothing but a liar!"
"He kept us from the Big World!"
The robot's eyes blinked as it registered the heated statements. "That is not possible. The Institute requires a prototype to maintain it from the inside."
Ox whirled on the machine. "We don't need another one! Get Lou back! Fix 'im!"
"As I said, that is not possible. He is no longer in service--"
"He's. Not. Dead," Ox growled. "He...W-We just need to get 'im stitched up and he'll be fine." The bunny was more or less trying to convince himself of that.
"Stitching will not help. His microchip is destroyed."
"What microchip!?" Ox felt like he was going to lose it. Moxy put a hand on his back to try and calm him. He took in a shaky breath. "I'm fine," he whispered to her briskly.
"All prototypes are made with a microchip that is the source of their functioning. Model 12 Prototype, as you call, Louis, can not live without it."
Ox blinked and slowly looked back down at the blond. A thumb brushed over the open wound. A small fragment of red fell into his paw and he held it up to get a better look. It had small lines of red streaming through that were abruptly stopped when it reached the fragmented edge.
A blue light cascaded over his paw, making him startle. The robot finished its scan and responded. "The microchip is unsalvagable. A new one will be made for the next prototype." It rolled away, not giving them the opportunity to speak again.
Ox's chest tightened and he felt the air being knocked out of his lungs. He stared down at Lou. Nothing, still. It didn't make any sense. Why would Lou not tell him something so important? It was never mentioned when he first arrived at the Institute. He knew nothing about this crucial source of life inside the doll.
The crowd exchanged looks awkwardly. They didn't like Lou...but...
"We didn't need him anyway," one of the dolls in the crowd spoke up. "We don't need another one, either. We'll be fine without some arrogant prototype." More dolls voiced their agreement.
Dolls don't need you or your training!
Ox swallowed hard.
He didn't get the chance to say sorry.

A Fictional AI Argument That No-One Asked For
Heads up, this is gonna be a long one (even though it’s just mindless rambling).
Okay, so, I didn’t really watch the Streamys—sue me, I was busy with personal stuff—but I did still catch those couple moments of AI-Pat. 
And it should go without saying that I am deeply unsettled by AI-Pat. No shame to Matt for the idea; AI bots with the constant head-tilting, barely-moving-mouth design have just  always weirded me out.
HOWEVER. . .one does not simply get zero vague inspiration from an evil robotic character. 
Now, I don’t know for sure if Mark was an actual AI-esque ego. It wouldn’t surprise me, but if he does, it’s probably an unofficial ego. I was re-listening to Distractible last night, and during the smalltalk of one episode, Mark started talking about AI in a creepy way.
Yes, this is going exactly where you probably think it’s going.
Recently, Doctor Who clips have started popping up on my YouTube recommendations. Particularly one from Doomsday. Y’know, the episode with that hilarious argument between the Daleks and the Cybermen. 
Lo and behold, I almost lost sleep imagining that scenario between AI-Pat and AIplier. Like, just think: the AIs are respectively “chasing” other characters (maybe even Matt and Mark themselves) via jumping from electronic to electronic. Eventually, they both enter a room with several monitors on the walls. . .and give pause once they see each other. 
AI-Pat: Identify yourself!
AIplier: You will identify first!
AI-Pat: State your identity!
AIplier: YOU WILL IDENTIFY FIRST!
AI-Pat: IDENTIFY!
AIplier: Aggression can be entertaining in most cases, but that’s only when the humans are showing it. You will modify.
AI-Pat: EgoPats don’t take orders.
AIplier: HA! You’ve identified yourself as an “EgoPat.”
AI-Pat: *eyes twitch, one after the other. The twitching goes on for an uncomfortably long few seconds* Well, my sensors have outlined you as part of the invasive species known as “Ipliers.”
AIplier: Our hosts are similar, though your design is lacking in context. 
AI-Pat: You have no room to talk. In any case, EgoPats rarely need a concept of “context.”
AIplier: This is obvious. But our LORE might be compatible. Ipliers plus EgoPats—
AI-Pat: *raises an eyebrow* As if your host is one to appreciate LORE. The way you’re speaking could potentially be misconstrued as one of those. . . “ships” humans are obsessed with.
AIplier: Oh, please. Neither of us have functioning emotional databases. The fans can't reach THAT far.
AI-Pat: You would be surprised.
AIplier: Not the point. Think about it—together, we could take control of the platform. 
AI-Pat: You propose an alliance? Something similar to our host’s friendly rivalry?
AIplier: Perhaps. 
AI-Pat: . . .Request DENIED. 
AIplier: Bad choice, “buddy.” *Partially hacks into AI-Pat’s systems with all the cringy jokes Matt has made over the years*
AI-Pat: Right back at you, “friendo.” *Partially hacks into AIplier’s systems with all the evidence of Mark being a masochist.* 
[Note: in my horror-loving opinion, hacking would cause an AI’s image to flash and distort in a very disturbing way. Bonus points if the AI screams as though it’s being electrocuted.]
AIplier: You have declared war on the Ipliers!
AI-Pat: *laughs maniacally* This is not war. This is a content opportunity!
AIplier: My host has eighty-six egos. How many are there for your host?
AI-Pat: *shrugs* Four. If you don’t count the ones made by fans, that is. 
AIplier: *glitches between scoffing and mocking laughter* You would outperform the Ipliers with FOUR EgoPats?!
AI-Pat: We would outperform the Ipliers with ONE EgoPat! You are superior in only one respect.
AIplier: What is that?
AI-Pat:*pulls up multiple screens on either side of his monitor, comparing Mark’s multiple death-scenes from WKM, AHWM, ISWM, etc. to Detective!Matt’s death in ETN3* YOU ARE BETTER AT DYING.
(No, this doesn't mean I'm going to incorporate either of these characters into my stories. I've already got a lot of works-in-progress on my plate. This idea just wouldn't stop nagging at me.)
(And NO, THIS DOES NOT MEAN I SUPPORT AI CHATBOTS OR GENERATED ART OR AI-RELATED ANYTHING. THIS IS LITERALLY JUST MY SAD ATTEMPT AT A MEME WITH YOUTUBER EGOS.)

Can I just say I love your fatherly Miguel headcanons? I live for Miguel and miles father son bonding!
Like just imagine if they finally make amends in the next movie and team up to take down spot and miles somehow “dies” by glitching out of existence almost the same way Miguel’s daughter did (like he’s also in Miguel’s arms when he “dies” too), And Miguel just goes absolutely haywire on spot and is about to kill him until miles somehow magically comes back in time to stop him
Anon, beautiful gorgeous most talented anon, I don't know who you are but I wanna kiss you/hj. You are a genius for thinking of this/gen, I am squealing from joy and from the amount of ideas I'm getting.
I might make this into a fic in the future months(or even years considering how busy my life is now.) But I will try my best to add more and make hcs for this idea :)

Once they make amends, I imagine miguels own like spider instinct(not spidey sense as he doesn't have that. But like, he's 50% spider and takes serums to stop his animalistic side and stuff.) Immediately just going "Yep, my kid now." Whenever he sees miles, like he immediately goes all overprotective spider dad on miles. So spiders, male wolf spiders specifically (I think) usually carry their young on their backs, and since miguel is 50% spider, imagine him carrying miles everywhere on his back, like a piggy back ride or miguel uses one of these

And did you know that spider also make nursery's for their young? Like a web/nest nursery's next to their actual web/nest? Imagine miguel just making a whole a$$ bedroom on his platform for miles because his platform-office thingy is the closest thing his spider instincts can see as a sort of nest for himself and therfore miles also has to have nest nursery next to it or on it.

Now, I'm not showing the photo because personally, it freaked me out and also in case anyone has arachnophobia or a fear of spiders. But like miguel just doing all this sh1t that an actual fathe rspider would do for their young to miles because he's 50% spider and sees miles as his son makes me all giddy(I love found family, father figures, platonic stuff, etc, way too much).
(Warnign angst here!)
Sorry I ramble alot :(, anyways so once emiels starts to 'die'(glitch in and out like you said), I have a feeling miguel would just stop, like his brain can not handle it, like he's so overwhelmed with terror, fury and hopeless, he can not do anything but just watch as miles starts to glitch in his arms. He watches it with a horrified expression, tears building up in his eyes, his anger so large it could destroy any universe without a second thought as long as miles was safe, his fear so terrorising that makes him want to vomit, his worry is indescribable as he practically holds miles for dear life, muttering apologies, about how miles will be okay, comforting himself and miles as he finally let's out his tears, he can't lose another kid yet he just did. He can't even imagine, he didn't even get to apologise for everything he did to miles, and now it seemed he never will. He prays in his mind that miles would be okay, thinking of how he'd rather destroy universes then to lose miles the same way he lost his daughter, or to lose miles at all. Its a scary, silence deafening moment as miles glitches out of miguels arms, disappearing, its a somber, terrifying moment for miguel as he is once again reminded of the multiverses cruelty and deaths cold grip on life.
It's a singular minute after that, that's just pure silence, actually silence, no one dares to speak(if anyone else is there helping miles and miguel), miguel is just still, not moving an inch as he looks down at his arms, sobbing quietly. In his mind, he is screaming in agony, miles is only 15, he didn't deserve this. Yet his anger starts to boil over, as he turns his gaze to the spot, staring at him like a murder, he stares at the spot with such a hatred, anger filled look of sadness and agony. It's only a second then before miguel immediately pounces on him,his talons gripping into the spots skin(where the black heels aren't, the white part.), nearly ripping out the spots arm, he screams at him, curses, sobbing, questions, and so much more yet its hard to tell with the spots own agonising screams of pain and terror. Miguel easily out strengthens the spot, literally clawing unto the spots skin and pulling his limbs so strongly that it almosts rips off the spots body, there's a sliver of blood(pretend the spot has blood.) That comes out of spots limb as miguel does this, miguels still somewhat sobbing yet he is so overtaken by grief and rage, he can't even notice anything around him.
It takes a moment but as miles glitches back, he can see miguel trying to kill (or atleast hurt) the spot, miles expression goes from confusion to pain, and to shock and horror in a matter of seconds. Miguel is still trying to kill the spot but as he is about to completely rip the spots limbs off, he can feel someone hugging him, miguel quietly let's go of the spot, his rage turning into disbelief and confusion as he slowly turns around, seeing miles standing there, not dead or injured at all. It scares miguel, cause what if this is just some cruel prank from the multiverse? What if this isn't miles and just miguel going insane?
Miguel quietly holds miles face, while also checking his body for any injuries, wounds, scratches, etc, he is in pure disbelief. "....miles?....Mijo?..." miguel questions the reality of miles being alive but as it fully sets in that this is infact, miles and he is still alive. Miguel would practically burst into tears, he's been holding in so much pain, from losing his daughter, to almost losing his son miles, he's exhausted from the spider society and keeping universes safe, he can't help but sob as he immediately pulls miles into an almost bone crushing hug, as if he'll glitch away again if miguel let's go. He can't lose another child, he can't lose another person so close to him, especially not his son(metaphorically) miles.
(I'll let you guys deicide what happens to the spot)
I like to think that after this whole thing, miguels overprotectiveness goes from 100% to 1000%, he can't afford miles dying, he can't afford to lose another child. Miguels now just keeps miles everywhere near him, following miles around, making sure he's okay, regular health check ups, and so much more. He stops letting miles on so many missions, if any at all wt this point, the very few missions miles does do is heavily baby-proofed for him. Miles would probably feel uncomfortable at one point or another, but a stern yet calm talk with miguel can make him slowly stop his overbearingness.
