⟢ husband! rafayel who makes sure there's always a place for you to sit or lay down on when you're in the room watching him paint
⟢ husband! rafayel who smears paint on your cheeks while you're sleeping, only to feel bad and paint a small sunset or ocean or sunrise or the sky or anything, really, across your cheeks
⟢ husband! rafayel who will trace miscellaneous shapes on your collarbones and shoulders - connecting every freckle and mole
⟢ husband! rafayel who looks at your stretch marks and kisses them gently, tracing every curve and smiling up at you, stopping to only tell you how much they look like stardust
⟢ husband! rafayel who would cave when you give him puppy eyes and a pout - he's weak for you, he knows
⟢ husband! rafayel who once reserved a whole restaurant because he remembered you saying you don't like eating in front of a lot of people, just so you would be comfy on your date night
⟢ husband! rafayel who would collect seashells everyday as he walks on the beach with you, telling you stories about his adventures when he was a little kid in lemurian waters; placing them in a tiny jar that he gives to you - and his grin is so blinding and hug so warm and kiss so tender when he sees it on your desk and in your bag.
⟢ husband! rafayel who thinks you look exceptionally pretty in pearls, but he thinks you're ethereal when you're in his bed, curled up around him, bed hair and sour breath and all
⟢ husband! rafayel who grew fond of cats because of how much you love them - who fell in love with the way you looked and loved cats, and could never think of cats as harmful ever again (especially when you look at them like how you look at him)
⟢ husband! rafayel who buys you dresses upon dresses, if only to see you wear them and spin around like the disney princess you deserved to be but couldn't affort to be
⟢ husband! rafayel introducing you to little fishies during a swim in the ocean, calling you his wife and watching with awe as the fishes boop your nose and circle you two, guiding you both through the waters to the prettiest coral reef ever
⟢ husband! rafayel who lets you see his silvery scars from fighting for his kingdom, letting you trace them even though he flinches from the memories - only soothed by your fingertips and gentle kisses to his skin, your calloused thumbs wiping away falling tears
⟢ husband! rafayel dedicating a whole exhibit with every painting of everything you've ever loved and liked, with the centerpiece as both of you dancing at the banquet, with the words "for my ocean" as its caption
⟢ husband! rafayel who has never thought of having kids until he took one look at you with your nephew, and decided he wanted some then and there
⟢ husband! rafayel who brings you trinkets and tidbits from wherever he travels to, be it in Linkon or overseas, because every little thing reminds him of you (he'd rather live with your memory and you by his side than have to lose you again)
⟢ husband! rafayel that would not let you go anywhere without him - he knows you can defend yourself, but he wants to be able to see you and touch you just in case; he likes protecting you (if only to make up for all the time that he wasn't there to protect you - could you blame him? he wanted you to forget, he was sure you would)
⟢ husband! rafayel that would cook for you when you return home from work, shit-faced and weak, wobbly, exhausted legs - who would feed you and hold you close as your words slurred, a fond smile on his face as he squished your cheeks, watching you fall asleep, your features so beautifully calm and peaceful
⟢ husband! rafayel who never wants to see you cry, but would sit there on the bathroom floor at 5am, wiping your tears away when memories of you both together centuries ago flooded your mind, his heart aching as he watched you cry over not remembering him when it really was his fault
⟢ husband! rafayel who would hold your hair back when you didn't like the way it felt, tying it up into a bun and decorating it with little seashell clips so you felt pretty
⟢ husband! rafayel who would see his child hold a paintbrush, painting a very wonky looking apple and sing with glee - who would frame the apple painting and title it "[child's name]'s first painting"
⟢ husband! rafayel who would tell his child how wonderful of a mother you are, spinning the baby around before he tucks the baby onto his hips, holding her close
⟢ husband! rafayel who would rest his forehead against yours at least 5 times a day, loving the peace and love that radiates from you, seeping into him and soothing his bones, a quick kiss on your lips sealed the deal
⟢ husband! rafayel who always tells you that he's glad to finally be yours, to kiss you and hold you close
⟢ husband! rafayel who looks at you like you hung the moon and stars when you tell him you love him
⟢ husband! rafayel who is just so happy you come home to him everyday

boyfriend!gojo headcanons
haahahahahahahahahhahahhahah.............
masterlist
Tumblr media
bf!gojo loves when you scratch him behind the ear like a damn cat
bf!gojo gives you 6 wet willies a day
bf!gojo is not allowed a pet because he wanted to cuddle with the fish yuuta got him……
bf!gojo goes on runs (i’m talking like 25km at once because he has so much energy all the time) and he wears singlets
bf!gojo begs for a sip of your drink because “it’s looks so much more delicious than his” so you let him and he drinks the whole thing :/
bf!gojo keeps track of everything you’ve ever said in his notes app so he doesn’t forget anything because his mind is going 2752 miles an hour, every hour, everyday
bf!gojo hums to himself 24/7 (mostly your favourite songs that are stuck in his head or, the most random songs that he’s only heard 24 seconds of thanks to yuuji & his giant fuck off speaker)
bf!gojo has a collection of sunglasses and puts them on you when he’s bored because he loves how cute you look in them
bf!gojo makes you brush his teeth when he’s being a little baby bitch & god forbid you don’t want his oral health to go to shit
i believe bf!gojo takes his shirt off and starts flexing obnoxiously if you say anything about how good he’s been looking lately (like he doesn’t look good all the time……), especially in the living room because “the lighting is better in here”
bf!gojo teleports to the shower (while you’re in it 😐) (“omg this isn’t the kitchen?????”)
bf!gojo loves when you wash his hair (when you’re in the shower together, he just tilts his head back and waits silently, sometimes shaking his hair when you take too long to realise)
bf!gojo watches you sleep and before you start omg ann that is creepy….. he has lost many people ok, gojo will do anything and everything in his power to make sure you don’t join that list, and if watching you sleep soundly helps him avoid a spiral, then let him be
bf!gojo allows you remove his blindfold to wash it because i know that thing is gross (smells citrus-y because other detergents make him feel sick (read: baby with fragrance sensitivity))
bf!gojo hates having his feet touched and will fight anyone who comes close to them
bf!gojo holds your hand every chance he gets, and plays with your fingers (cracking them even though it’s bad!!) like they’re fidget toys 😭
bf!gojo likes to be pampered by you (e.g. eyebrows plucked, non-existent beard shaved, face mask = on, skin = flawless & smooth)
bf!gojo invites all his students over for dinner every sunday and you all cook together (turns into cooking competitions: yuuta always wins & yuuji always complains for an entire week after saying he cheated (until the next week where it happens all over again))
bf!gojo cannot keep his mouth shut to save his life, but he will when you’re doing something that requires silence because he likes to watch you in such a way (reading, meditating, whatever you want; you are the only one who he will willingly shut the fuck up for <3)

relationship headcanons | leon s kennedy x gn!reader
💭 . . . hiii, so i moved to this account from my old account @movedoopsie so this an updated version of both of my old relationship headcanons posts and nsfw post (with some new bonus headcanons hehe) (‘. • ᵕ •. `)
before reading: fluff, suggestive, nsfw marked, some are sad bc i love making leon suffer ₍ᐡ。っ ̫-。ᐡ₎ not proofread | warnings: cursing, substance abuse mentioned | wc 2.1k
Tumblr media
love with him kinda gives me and your mama by childish gambino but very much guns and roses by lana del rey 🎀
ONE THING I FORGOT TO MENTION IN MY ORIGINAL POSTS: television heaven by lana del rey is so re2make leon coded !!!! and maybe perhaps starry eyed... just maybe...
it's canon that he listens to rock (refer to re2r opening) but I'm sure he would listen to alternative and hip hop
btw, to the spotify playlist makers, he would never listen to mother mother he is quite literally born in the 70s
also i doubt he would actually listen to lana del rey, but if he did he would listen to ultraviolence ₍ᐢ.”⚇.”ᐢ₎
when he's frustrated, he'll mutter curses under his breath like it's so sexy and hot and pussy soddening or dick hardening (I don't have a dick idk how it works)
he loves when you wear long, flowy dresses or shirts, especially if they are in white. if you get it you get it
he would like white clothes on you since white typically represents like purity and cleanliness. and with all the stuff he's been through and it's just comforting
his favorite colors are blue and green tho
he's a good kisser 10/10
leon definitely replies with the driest things ever over text. like you could say "hey baby I love you <3 be careful at work" and he'll say "Ok love you." and he uses the period too
also replies with 👍, 👎, 😀 and 😍
when you are both going to sleep at the same time, he will scratch your back out of habit, even if he falls asleep you will feel his hand making circular motions on your back
he's the lightest sleeper ever. he wakes up if you shift in bed too fast, if you make any unusual sound, literally wakes up so easily and this leads to him being very sleepy :(
he would want 2 kids so they aren't lonely. he wouldn't ever want his kids to feel the loneliness he felt as an orphan
he's a girl dad but if he had a son then you already know that kid is going to be a carbon copy of his dad
sometimes he comes home really drunk and he leans all over you, kissing you all over and saying how much he loves you and stuff and then he cries and then falls asleep
when he goes fishing or hunting or camping he always drags you along for it even if you complain
he looks like he goes camping like every season as the vacation he so desperately asks for 24/7
he doesn't understand text abbreviations. he's like a victorian child. he says "LOL" and doesn't even know what it means. "leon I'm feeling really sick, bring me some soup please" "Ok LOL."
he also replies really slowly to texts sometimes, it's not even on purpose he is just has no clue how to iphone
during missions, he has those cute lil kitten sneezes (like in re4r) but at home this man forces them to be obnoxiously loud because it always makes you giggle
and his hearts melts a little every time you giggle. your laughter is like his favorite sound in the whole wide world
he gets home at unholy hours of the night usually, so he usually just goes to the bedroom, gives you a kiss on your forehead or cheek while you're asleep and takes a quick shower before sleeping
however on nights where you wait for him to get home he is taken by surprise when you fling yourself into his arms when he enters
when be walks in he'll be like "sono a casa..." really quietly
yeah he learned a little italian bc he's like a mafioso son basically so he decided "why not just learn italian and make my girlfriend swoon over it?" il mio king
he's incredibly insecure in relationships. he thinks you deserve better than him, somebody who can be there for you without fail and isn't heavily traumatized
when you're sick he will literally do everything for you, he doesn't let you do anything until you're better
even when you aren't sick he does everything, he justa bit more lenient
hero complex ofc, he loves being there to 'save you' even if it's just helping you get something off the top shelf or helping you zip up a dress or a shirt
always puts his bed by you in minecraft even tho he has no idea how to play :3
also, loves bear hugging you. but he also does those hugs where he lifts you up completely and spins you around a little
if you where in raccoon city with him he would do the spinning hug the second you were finally safe
when he's feeling really affectionate (usually when he's a lil tipsy) he'll tell you things like "sei tutto il mio mondo" and "sei la metà della mia mela" (this is so cute if you also love apples)
he's a heavyweight this man can handle his alcohol, so if you get drunk easy like me, then yea he's def got you covered
doesn't let anybody he doesn't trust near you when you're drunk
also, even when he's drunk he's very protective. he's actually more protective
he is really good at comforting you when you need it but often pushes you away when you need it :(
sometime he will disappear for long periods of times. and he cuts off all contact. but eventually you will get a call from somebody like chris, claire, etc. that leon was drinking and they were bringing him home
he goes through cycles of highs where he stops drinking and lows where he drinks excessively (´°̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥ω°̥̥̥̥̥̥̥̥`)
sometimes he'll send you random selfies when he gets service or random texts like "Hi." and tbh it scared the shit out of you to just get a random Hi when he's in the middle of like the desert a few times
he isn't really good with physical affection, he'll give you awkward hugs and hold your hands but he's just very awkward in general so...
but if we're talking cute re2make leon then omfg hugs 24/7 he will not keep his hands off you
he isn't really into pda bc he's shy about it, he will hold your hand and maybe give you an awkward side hug but that's really it unless it's one of those special occasions lmfao
this is kind of random but when he's alone he likes to look at old pictures of you both and just reminisce on the past ໒꒰ྀི´ ˘ ` ꒱ྀིა
re2make leon the typa guy to play just dance with you
maybe re4make if he's in love enough (he is)
his style is actually really good so he ALWAYS looks so good next to you (refer to casual leon model) 🐩
he sings in the shower sometimes
he likes to take showers with you since it's relaxing when you wash his hair since you have like soft hands and not his big thick meaty manly leather beefy hands
falls asleep with light piano music and rain audios in the background 😭
his instagram is basically a fanpage for you. always appreciating you!! "My s/o took this." "Date night night with s/o." "Imagine not having the prettiest bestest amazingest s/o ever."
he and ada are mutuals, this is his revenge for ghosting him lol
takes you on picnic dates a lot
for people with periods, he is like so good with helping you woth getting tampons/pads, getting medicine, etc etc
his ideal house with you would be one of those stereotypical white american family suburb houses (he's so american i'll never let him live down calling luis 'lewis' 😭)
he pledge allegiance to the flag he is a PATRIOT🇺🇸
he spoils the hell out of you !!!! you look at a dress twice? magically in your closet the next day. you look at a pretty necklace that costs more than a car? he already got it
government paycheck
when he was 21 he dreamed of having a really normal life with you. a normal house, normal cars, 2 kids, a dog, all these other totally normal things
he does not get the normal life lol
nsfw
he is very territorial, he definitely marks you up in spots that are very visible and harder to hide
he isn't really picky about what lingerie you wear but if you wear white sets with little blue or pink ribbons then you got your work cut out for you
he's very romantic during sex. on anniversaries he'll even get rose petals and candles in you're into that kinda stuff lol
had to buy a whole different phone just for videos/photos of you both because his phone has a ton of work things and he didn't want to risk accidentally sending the wrong picture to the wrong person
when he gets back from missions that were very stressful and got him pent up then sex is way rougher than usual
he is definitely into worshipping your body. he'll tell you how beautiful you are and kiss every inch if your skin that he can
sometime he'll also say some italian things to you while you do the deed like "sei molto bella"
when he's horny he'll tell you "mi ecciti così tanto"
although, italian bedroom talk is kinda cringe sometimes so he usually sticks to english
he is definitely very experienced, he's been with several women, usually one night stands. but we do also know he had a girlfriend before resi 2 so there's that
he would prefer sex stays in the bedroom, or the house at least
he probably gets pleasure from making you get pleasure. like just from eating you out he will... yea
as i said before, territorial 😊
one of his sexual fantasies is fucking you while he's on a mission but he probably wouldn't want to take that risk bc like zombies
it's not rare to have quickies in the mornings
he's big like maybe 6 or 7 inches? he may not have a könig bulge but he's absolutely packing
dirty talk. says things like "y'like that princess?" "that feel good?" "i know you like it baby" "you feel so girl pretty girl" "look at me lovie" when you close ur eyes
man is a freak (refer to THAT clip from death island)
however, sex with him is usually really vanilla simply because he is too tired from all these missions to be doing all that
when it's not vanilla he's a switch simply bc I know it. he'll let you take the reins from time to time, but he is always the one in control if we're being fr
also i'm pretty sure he's top leaning because like... the shit he's been through?? he'd want a little control over something and having control in bed makes him feel really powerful
he still likes to bottom tho lol
he also calls u mommy or daddy or master or mistress if u a freaky freak lol
loves brat taming!!!!!
he likes to hold your hand while having sex
enjoys morning sex lots, especially the morning after he returns from a mission. he's too exhausted the night of returning, so he wakes up early and fucks you
love love loves missionary bc he gets to look at your face and he can just look down to see him yk thrusting (goodbye i hate this word)
i will say tho sometimes he will say the most outlandish things like "i wanna pump so many babies into you that we repopulate raccoon city" but it's ok bc it's leon
loves white sets on you (refer to 8)
sooo good with after care!!! if you need something he will do it or get it. want a snack? he's grabbing it. want a nice warm bubble bath? he's running the water and grabbing the soap for bubbles
spoils you with aftercare tbh.... after him you really cannot ever get better aftercare
very vocal, lots of whimpers and whines coming from him
really good with his hands, I mean look at the way he handles guns. i'm sure his hands come in handy in more ways than just flipping a gun around
amazing with his tongue and mouth as well 🎀
he love love loves when u sit on his face !!!
when you give him head he likes to rub your scalp and he makes the most attractive noises ever
he owns a couple toys. he def owns a vibrator and a pair of handcuffs
he probably has no preference to if you're shaved or not when he's older
but when he's younger he prefers it shaved or trimmed cuz he lives between your legs and it gets a bit annoying getting hair in his mouth 😭
(i'm sorry if all the nsfw seems aimed towards afab people, I literally have no idea how to write for amab but i'm trying to spoil everybody...)
Tumblr media
౨ৎ translations "sono a casa" i'm home; "il mio [re]" my king; "sei tutto il mio mondo" you are my whole world; "sei la metà della mia mela" you are half of my apple; "sei molto bella" you're very beautiful; "mi eciti così tanto" you're turning me on | please correct me if any of this is wrong since i rarely speak to my italian friends and family and i don't say these things to them. i had to research :)
Tumblr media
reblogs and replies appreciated always <3

Got thinking in the night about Ed in episode 7 and why he regrets that they rushed into things the night before. At the beginning of the episode, he's come to a decision about his leathers (his Blackbeard days) and puts them aside and is calm about it.
In the first scenes of the episode, he's open and at peace and talking to Stede about his golden merman who saved his life. They're having a nice time together, eating out, chatting, talking about Stede's letters, even giving pointers at Stede's Regional Debut 2.0.
The change comes in a mirror of the Chauncey scene in episode 9 - Jackie (a figure from Ed's old life) making observations that Stede's star is on the rise, things have changed and "do you think *he* knows that?" about Ed's desire to be a normal dude and Ed whispers "shit."
For the rest of the episode, we see Ed quietly sitting with himself, thinking. He's sitting at the quayside watching the fisherfolk. He even talks to Izzy about getting rid of his leathers and how it felt "fucking great" and Izzy tells him maybe he needs to listen to that.
The fact he turns to fish and fishing as his processing mechanism speaks measures. He needs that association: that stillness and quiet so he can just process everything that has happened in the past 24 hours. And it's a lot. It's so much and this is where the regrets creep in.
Stede eventually comes to find him after "the best day" and immediately clocks that Ed doesn't sound happy. Ed has had the whole day of turning things over and has realised how unsteady he's feeling about it all and finally tells Stede "I don't want to be a pirate anymore".
And this is where the regret comes in. It's not about them sleeping together. It's about them rushing into it when he's realised he still has so much to work out. And it's why he's chosen to become a fisherman - a job that he feels will let him sit and process quietly.
Yes, it's a rapid-fire decision from Stede's POV, but from Ed's POV it has been building up slowly from the beginning of episode 6, when he was dealing with some pretty intense flashbacks including his father's death, all the maiming of Izzy and when he almost killed the whole crew. Then a figure from his pirate life came in and made things so much worse.
He *needs* space from the pirate life and he can't know he'll get it on the Revenge, especially not now that Stede is the Republic's rising star. He is removing himself from a situation where his past keeps coming back to find him, living in plain sight, unnoticed and *quiet*.
Only he doesn't explain this to Stede. Yes, he says he doesn't want to be a pirate, but he doesn't explain what's changed and why, only that he's getting the hell out of dodge. And Stede absolutely doesn't get it and is understandably angry and hurt about it.
When Stede calls him coward, it's coloured by his own experience - he called himself a coward about the way he abandoned his own life and family for a job he knows nothing about. He doesn't realise that Ed is doing the same thing for a not-completely-different reason.
"Fishermen and pirates have nothing in common" Ed tells him. The subtext being "we don't have anything in common anymore". Stede is becoming the thing that Ed is trying to escape and to Stede, Ed is abandoning him on a whim. There's so much misunderstanding going on.
It definitely doesn't help that Stede has gone into the pirate life with this glamorous fantasy of what it is to be a "proper pirate", even though Ed said "yeah, they're pirates" when Stede observed how troubled all Ed's friends are. Stede needs to lose the rose-tinted glasses (and also acknowledge that maybe, possibly, there's a vague chance - shocking concept - that he is quite troubled himself)
They've been talking at cross-purposes so much. Ed tends to hide his real emotions in metaphors that Stede doesn't catch, while Stede tends to bottle up his - he has been crushing down so much all season and they. need. to. talk. but properly because they are both a mess.
And Stede, when pushed, will eventually break and do deeply stupid things because his self-worth and self-preservation is in the dirt. It's why he fights Zheng when he knows she's far superior to him. It's why Izzy tried to get him out of there before it kicked off.
As Izzy astutely observed, he and Ed balance each other out. Without each other, they swing to extremes that become dangerous to themselves and others. They need to have the time to sit down and *talk things through* instead of charging on headlong. They need to take it slow.
Only circumstances don't allow that. Everything keeps on coming and they just haven't had the time. Ed *isn't* wrong about needing some space to process his stuff. It's just that they picked the worst possible way to discuss it with each other and everything fell apart.

hi mermsie! i was wondering, would you ever write more about reader and merman bakugou? i know their story is "finished", but i wonder if there were any "behind-the-scenes" moments that wouldn't have fit in the fic? or if you ever had any thoughts about a random time they had together before the ending? i love that story so much, it's so magical! and i think about the beauty and wonder of having such a love with a magical merman ❤️🌊☀️
Anonymous said
hi, me again, about your merman bakugou! i had a thought— have you ever had any thoughts about bakugou finding a mermaid reader? i think he'd be so.....what the hell are you? lmao sorry for sending two asks, you don't have to answer! love you!
never be sorry about saying hello!!!! 🥺 no matter how many times. i love it. 😌 it makes me feel apart of things. 🥹 but you know, your ask made me kinda sit there and have a think. 🧐 mostly bc—everything i wanted to include in The Widening Sky, i included!!! 🥺 all the little moments they would’ve had would’ve been—just that, little moments. 🥺 Reader’s calves burning against the hot, wet rock she’s perched on, waiting for Bakugou to come back from some random errand. Or maybe… napping under the shade of the trees while he splashes about, annoyed that she’s wasting their time together by sleeping. Or paddling in the sea while Bakugou rolls around in the shallows like a bored seal pup.
one thing, though, that like, the fic didn’t have room for was what exactly Bakugou was getting up to, after Reader treks back through the scrub to Grandma’s house. Because Bakugou is first and foremost a warrior, right? like the whole reason they end up meeting is because he’s like, curled away licking at his wounds and fish-cursing lmao. and i’ve always thought that if he had people out there, in the ocean, that they wouldn’t…. stay in one place. humans are everywhere! we have eyes everywhere!! even in like, the waters around their island—it’s not really theirs. and especially not with whatever is polluting it, during the fic. so i think if there were others like Bakugou out there, they’d eventually inch further and further away, hide away on some abandoned stretch of shore along a island too tiny and too important for humans to have cameras or eyes on it. Leaving Bakugou—essentially the vanguard, out on a mission!!! so what i think Reader doesn’t realise, when she’s kicking off her sandals at Grandma’s door and brushing the sand off and getting dinner ready while the TV blares out behind her is that—Bakugou doesn’t just go back to some nice charming little seacave filled with like, seaglass that reflects watercolour lights on the walls. He doesn’t get to go to sleep on a bed of seaweed when Reader’s curling into her pillow, with the window open behind her. He’s out there in the dark, keeping watch for something in the water that shouldn’t be there. Maybe there’s a handful of others with him, all of them spread out. But the point is that he is very much embroiled in something beyond us, and that those like… golden, in-between hours we have with him are stolen, on both our parts. 🌅🌾
tbh, i haven’t given much thought to a reversal situation. 🧐 have you read @/smashboxgirl26’s hidden in the sand? i was thinking about it, after you sent your ask, and did the following doodle for it but like—i think she pulls off quite well the problem that i struggle with, in regards to making Reader the mermaid? like in Smashie’s fic, Bakugou’s returned to an island where he used to holiday as a kid—but it’s different now. He’s a pro hero for starters, and the summer-hours friend he had (you) is missing—gone. writing it from Bakugou’s POV is such a clever way of getting around the question of like, how do you have a mermaid reader-insert where you don’t have to like, write convincingly about them living in the ocean. because!!! idk about the rest of u but it seems like living in the ocean 24/7 would be very scary. and dark. dark!!! anyways my point is i admire how smashie does it. 😌 so highly recommend.

I've ran out of current vods from my favourite streamer, do you have any recommendations for fun rtvs vods to watch? I've really been meaning to check some out
oh yes absolutely!!
i don't watch every rtvs member stream, so if anybody wants to chime in with vods from other folks, please feel free! i pretty much just watch wayne, holly, and scorpy's streams, so:
from wayneradiotv:
looking through wayne's catalogue i'm running into the problem that most of my favorites (like the among us, jackbox, & 420 streams) are best enjoyed when you're already pretty familiar with the crew, so maybe save those for later if you end up enjoying rtvs' stuff. all of the proximity chat among us videos are fantastic (and i like watching the same one from multiple peoples perspectives, holly's in particular are great). RTVS congress, a stream by baaulp, is also great and worth watching once familiar with the crew
i think my best wayne (well, on wayne's channel, all of these feature multiple members of the crew) recommendation though is gonna be I.M. MEEN, which is a completely normal playthrough of a regular copy of 90's kids' edutainment game i.m. meen, which has nothing wrong with it. for some of the other "rtvs brand of weirdness" sort of streams, check out waynekenstein's lab (fun with ai generated faces) and chex quest hd (just.. watch this one)
wayne does a lot of "grand tour" streams (technically the im meen one is one of these but), where he goes through older/weirder/obscurer games. fin fin on teo the magic planet is a FANTASTIC one (fin fin needs no introduction, but in case he does, odd 90's virtual pet with a great theme song), plus the echs bachs catalogue (a bizarre collection of pretty awful games made by one dude called Echs Bachs), and club penguin rewritten (it's club penguin, bro).
if you like seeing a game played over many hours and multiple streams, i'd check out chulip, lisa: the painful, minecraft 24 hour charity stream, and moon rpg: remix. lisa and moon remain unfortunately unfinished, but the streams are still absolutely worth checking out.
from hollowtones:
most of my favorite holly vods are biiiig long streams of a playthrough of a whole game. her stuff tends to be pretty chill and i find them nice and relaxing. sometimes there's friends joining her, sometimes it's just her. of these, i really like bugsnax (adore these ones. idk how to succinctly explain bugsnaz. is bugs, is snax, are you a jokester?), hypnospace outlaw (PLEASE watch these ones especially if you havent played/watched hypnospace before), and moonglow bay (really sweet fishing game).
holly also does a number of wikipedia streams, where she (and friends) read and discuss wikipedia articles about food for upwards of 6 hours a piece. it's really good. it's really good. i like the soup one.
another favorite holly stream is GO-FISH DELUXE FOR SUPER PLAYERS, where holly and a friend play a custom game of go fish for 7 and a half hours. i love this one.
and i would be remiss to leave out, of course, the pigmas in july peppa pig stream. which is where holly, joined by her sister if i remember correctly it's been a minute since i watched, plays the peppa pig video game for nintendo switch. this one is very worth watching to the very end.
from socpens:
my #1 recommendation from scorpy's catalogue is going to be every single one of the VHS VIEWINGZ streams. scorpy obtains and plays a bunch of vhs tapes on stream with friends, it's always always always a good time. my favorite of all of them is probably this one, which among other things, includes a tape about learning to be a clown. make sure to watch to the end for a t-bone tickler! this one, featuring Escalator Safety and VOLTON THE ELECTRITY DEMON is also great. i'm having a hard time choosing just a few, they're all really good, so i'm just gonna link the eye palming one and be done with it.
for gameplay with scorpy, i really like a way out with wayne (unintentionally hilarious 2 player narrative game about escaping from jail), any of the david cage game vods but here's detroit become human, and not for broadcast (a FMV game about running a tv station- censoring stuff, monitoring broadcasts, that sort of thing. has a very interesting narrative)
and a couple other things
ok so these aren't like, the typical stream vods, while they are technically livestreamed stuff they're not quite in the same category. but they're all really fucking good.
of course, half life VR but the ai is self aware. there's full stream vods available for these, but if you haven't watched before i highly recommend watching the edited versions on wayne's main channel linked above. in case you haven't heard of hlvrai before, basic concept is that it's an in-character playthrough (wayne roleplaying as gordon freeman) of half life 1 in VR with a cast of self-aware ai NPCs (played by other members of the rtvs crew) accompanying him through the game. no prior knowledge of half life necessary. just fantastic.
next up, GAMECLAM. a yearly e3-style gaming conference about the best video games console that doesn't exist. here's the first one, there's currently 3 in total. there's also a commentary video on scorpy's vod channel. PLEASE experience the gameclam. PLEASE experience the gameclam
lastly, half life: alyx but the gnome is TOO AWARE. wayne does a gnome run challenge of HL:A with a mod that gives the gnome a biiiit more personality. (due to some references, best watched after hlvrai, but they're not part of the same series/continuity). not all the way finished at the moment- the finale's been streamed (and you can find a 3rd party upload of the finale stream on youtube (thank you youtube user sawsily for everything you do)) but the edited version of the finale should be coming out pretty soon.

Would you be willing to do a IC apologizing to Nesta post acosf (especially Amren tbh)?It's always seemed unfair how she worked for their forgiveness when really the IC also hold a lot of responsibility.Especially the whole locking her up thing-it 'worked' because of Gwyn and Emerie-not their training and work regime...anyway I'll stop now ig you get the point.
Though it's okay if you don't want to write something like this.I complete get it!!
So I have written many different versions of Nesta and different IC members having difficult conversations with varying levels of blame and apologizing going on. I think I’ve done it for Rhys and Nesta like 8 times because I am obsessed with (my version of) their dynamic.
In all of that Amren has alluded me. I could never find a way to make it feel natural, but now seems as good a time as any to try.
Link to read on Ao3: https://archiveofourown.org/works/30357864/chapters/116876878
Nesta felt the house shift, air humming with a silent question the way it always did now before allowing anyone through the wards. Even Cassian at times, much to his chagrin.
Plucking a ribbon from the side table to mark her place in the book she held, Nesta nodded her head once.
Permission granted, the wards flickered and Nesta waited for her most ancient friend to climb the stairs and open the library door. That word clanged strangely through Nesta’s mind. Friend.
Was she friends with Amren?
Could anyone be friends with Amren?
The former ball of flaming vengeance turned Fae had once accused Nesta of not knowing the meaning of the word friend. Ironic, considering … 
“Where’s the brute?” Amren glided right past Nesta with barely a passing nod, losing her short body in the stacks and stacks of bookshelves. If it had been Gwyn or Emerie Nesta would have risen from her chair and joined them, would have asked what they were looking for and had the House make a pot of jasmine tea.
Which was why Nesta contemplated if the meaning of friendship as she remained seated, allowing far hearing to do all the work.
“Oh you know,” Nesta waved a hand through the air even though Amren could not see her, “visiting outcast Queens in their cottage in the woods or crushing some Ilyrian’s windpipe under his boot. One of those two things.”
Cassian was in the camps, dealing with a minor uprising, and would be gone until the next daybreak, but Amren didn’t actually care.
“Good for the two of you,” Amren grunted, “not being tethered to each other’s hip.”
Nesta laughed, unsure why the sound came out choked and sardonic. “It would be awfully unfair to make him deal with me 24/7.”
Amren’s head poked out from behind a shelf. “He’s your mate.”
“Is he? I hadn’t noticed.”
Amren scoffed, “Don’t start fishing for compliments like those males.”
Nesta couldn’t help but compare Amren to Gwyn, who so often visited her in this library and always had reassuring words to offer. “I thought you appreciated honesty.”
“That is not honesty,” Amren ticked, “that is trying to make a friend extol your many virtues. Enough people are obsessed with you, Nesta Archeron. You do not need my reassurances as well.”
“Are we friends?” Nesta simply asked. She didn’t like all of this messiness, this strange power dynamic that had cropped up between her and Amren since, well, everything. “You were a mentor to me, once. An excellent secret keeper for a time.”
Amren’s head tilted to the side, her eyes were no longer silver but something flashed as she surveyed Nesta. “I have always been your friend, girl.”
“Have you?” The question was genuine. “I just mean … how can you be friends with anyone when you look down on all of us?”
Amren scoffed, “pot meet kettle.”
“I never looked down on you. As you well know.”
“No,” Amren smirked, “you just hated my guts for telling you the truth.”
“I am not incapable of handling the truth, Amren.”
“Fine,” Amren rolled her eyes, “then here is the truth, girl. The ball of tension in between my neck and shoulder blade is older than the oldest living High Lord in Prythian. I do not look down on all of you because I do not think you are smart or capable. Some of you aren’t, to be clear, but that isn’t why I … assert superiority, at times. Even the cleverest child is still a child. Still in need of supervision.”
“Oh, so now we are giving people grace for being a child?”
“You may recall,” Amren looked up, “that I never condemned you for any of that human nonsense.” Nesta blinked. It was true. She and Azriel were the only ones who hadn’t thrown it in Nesta’s face at one point or another. 
“I was content to let you wallow and suffer so long as I could see that was what you needed.” Amren straightened her spine, coming out from the shelf holding a tome so old the cover had begun to crumble. “I did not change my mind because Feyre sobbed into her eggs or because Rhysand got annoyed. I know you think I did. I know you think I am under their rule, but like you, I am not.” 
“Why did you change your mind, then?”
“There were bigger things at play than your stubbornness.” Nesta scoffed. Amren held up a hand, “You may think me cruel, Nesta Archeron. You may think that I am not a true friend to any of you, but would you rather I lie to you?” Nesta only blinked. “I didn’t think so.” She sighed, shoulders curving in only slightly. Weary, she looked weary. “When Rhysand is being a fool, I call him a fool. When Feyre begins to plot petty revenge I tell her to stop acting like a child. When Cassian is desperately trying to disguise insecurity with machismo, I call him a brute. When you are acting like a spoiled brat, I tell you to get over yourself. It is what I do. It is my role here. Everyone accepts criticism more easily from me because I criticize you all, because I am Amren. I won’t apologize for not giving you the warm and fuzzies. I will not write a letter or cry at the beauty of your progress. I chastise when it is needed and I allow well enough when that is needed. You may not like it, but it is a necessity.” 
Nesta nodded once, “I have always preferred an explanation to an apology. It is far more useful.”
Amren smirked, “And that is why you are my favourite.”
“Respect,” Nesta said quietly, “is the foundation of friendship.”
Amren only nodded, tucked her book under her arm, and flashed out of the library.
Nesta settled back into her chair. Amren and Nesta would never have a sleepover or make friendship bracelets or cry about their shared trauma. They would never break into pieces and grow back together as sisters. 
But not every friend needed to be a sister. 
Some friends just needed to be there for a bottle of wine and a few laughs. Nesta had missed laughing with Amren.

Quick obx fic
This is based on OBX season 1 episode 8 I think when John B goes back to the chateau after escaping from ward and is looking for the gun
I wanted to make it more angsty and didn't want JB leaving cos that's what I do
I don't know if it changes the whole plot of the show but I still wrote it😁
Btw I haven't rewatched this episode so if something's are different to the real thing I apologize
Kiara wakes up to find herself trapped under JJ's arm. Still half asleep she turns her phone on to see that it's only 7 in the morning.
She looks at JJ who's facing her,still asleep, and memories of yesterday night flash through her mind.
She feels her eyes sting as she continues looking at her blonde friend.
Suddenly he looks so young and vulnerable.
His peaceful face is a stark contrast to the dark purple and blue bruises scattering his body.
Kiara sighs as JJ moves away from her turning on his back and smacking Pope on the face.
He wasn't aware of it obviously still asleep but Pope groans slowly waking up.
"The hell"Pope says as he sits up rubbing the sleep off his eyes.
"Morning to you too"Kie says as she gets off the bed, gently placing the blanket back on JJ.
Pope walks out of the room mumbling something about taking a shower.
Kie stays for a second her gaze focused on JJ before leaving too.
_______________________________
Pope just finished making breakfast with the stuff Kie bought earlier.
He takes the plate of pancakes outside to the porch where JJ and Kiara are sitting on the couch
Well Kiara is sitting down with JJ resting his head on her lap as he stares into the distance.
There's a far away look in his eyes, like he's not actually here.
It makes JJ look vulnerable.
"Foods ready"Pope says as he places it on the small coffee table.
Kiara smiles,"Thanks Pope"
Pope sits on the other side of JJ placing JJs feet on his lap.
"Don't you wanna eat Jajge?"Pope starts as he looks at the Maybank boy.
JJ looks defeated,like all the fight has left him and the usual energy that comes with him is not in sight.
"not hungry"
Kiara sighs as she places a hand on JJ's cheek, slowly tracing a small bruise that wasn't there yesterday.
"You've gotta eat something."
"Please Kie"
"Ok"Kiara resigns- there's no point arguing with an emotionally unstable JJ and to be honest Kiara's scared that if she says the wrong thing then he'll run away or have another breakdown and she can't have that. She can't see him in pain anymore , especially of her own doing.
Her thoughts are broken by the sound of footsteps coming closer and soon John B is walking towards them his face full of anger. JJ sits up beside her.
"JB,I thought you were fishing with Ward."Pope says as he stands up.
"Yeah well it turns out Ward is a murderer"
Kiara shares a confused glance with Pope-JJ is staring intently at John B and his eyes are shining.
"He...Ward killed my dad!He killed him and-and I have to kill him now cos it's not fair!"John B yells making JJ flinch.Both Pope and Kie notice.
"Keep it down,JB"Kiara starts as she walks towards him,placing a hand on his chest."What do you mean Ward killed Big John?"
John B looks away as he finally lets the tears pour out of his face.
"We were on the boat and then he was trying to hurt me and he started talking about dad and he said that he killed him and I was getting away and I don't know what to do,I-"
"Shh,calm down, it's okay we'll figure it out"Kiara replies her own eyes glistening with tears- this is too much for only less than 24 hours.
"I have to kill him "
"Let's think this through okay,killing Ward isn't gonna help anyone" Pope answers,sitting next to JJ who is shaking all over."Jajge?"
"I-I'm fine"JJ says as he covers his ears with his trembling hands.
John B only notices him now and sees the cuts and bruises on JJ's face.
Realising the situation,he walks the short distance to JJ and engulfs him in a tight hug,allowing JJ to cry into his shoulder.
"They know"JJ sobs,tightening his grip on John B's shirt."I needed you,JB"
"I know,I know"John B answered with the most gentle voice he only ever uses for JJ."I'm sorry"
Pope and Kie share a look,both of their faces stained with tears.
They stay like that for a good twenty minutes before JJs sobs end and in its place are quiet snores filling the silence that had enveloped the pogues.
John B is the first to move, carrying JJ in his arms easily as though it was a regular thing for him-maybe it is.He places JJ on the bed and then lays down next to him.Pope joins them,laying on the other side of JJ and Kiara opts for sitting on the chair to look at her three boys.
She sighs as she rests her head in her knees - she's not tired so she'll protect her boys
Her family

------------------------------------------
Tumblr media
Raphael is a very very needy baby, he wants your attention 24/7 and if he doesn't get it naturally he'll try to catch it. His main move is to slowly inch closer and closer to you until he's practically right up against you and if that doesn't work then he'll start to make soft whiny noises and rub his face against you.. Usually at that point you get the message and love on him some, well done Raphael.. mission accomplished.
Very jealous boy, VERY jealous.. He doesn't even like it when you talk to his siblings out of politeness, he's scared they're going to take you away from him. He has some mild insecurity issues and seeing his tall, usually buff, younger siblings next to you… tends to get on his ever lasting nerve. He's known to swiftly pick you up bridal style and make up some sort of dumb excuse for you both to leave. You're currently trying to get him to feel safer with you around his siblings, however some of them mildly flirting with you in front of him is certainly not helping. Honestly, you think at this point they do it just to annoy him and that's what he thinks as well... which just pisses him off more.
Raphael is one of the few angels that is actually open to a polyamorous relationship.. Well, your side is open, he's perfectly happy with just you. But it would depend on who it is you like, especially if it's a mortal. He'd most likely say no to any mortal you suggest and immediately explain that you deserve better than "some guy". If it's one of his siblings there's about a 30% chance he'll give you the stamp of approval.. he just doesn't trust most of them, he knows them all a little too well.
In a polyamorous relationship he would still some how manage to be the dominant lover no matter who you choose. He's just very authoritative and everyone around him tends to bend to his will… especially if he's angry. If he wants you for a whole day and the other lover or lovers have any disagreements, I assure you, he will get you for the day without question.
Ralphy loves a good fishing date, he will happily take you to a river full of fish and show you the ins and outs of the craft. If either of you manage to catch some worthy fish then you'll both be eating good that night, Raphael is one of the best cooks in heaven! If not, then he'll buy some fish from the super market and you'll both just pretend you caught them yourself and still eat good!
Raphael LOVES when you want to snuggle up in bed with him all day and just watch tv and nap together, it's one of the most relaxing things for him. He just gets to unwind and be with his partner, what's better than that? Of course, he'll create a beautiful array of snacks for you to munch on as well.. such as your favorite chips, nuts, berries, desserts.. all sorts of stuff. He's a great snuggle partner, 10/10.
If you ask him to teach you some medical stuff for emergencies he'll be happy to oblige, it'll take a load off his mind knowing that you can take care of yourself medically at least a little bit. He'll teach you all the basics, stitching, wound prep, plants that stop bleeding, all the works. You'll be ready for any occasion by the end of it all.
Raphael absolutely refuses to take you to a restaurant to eat… He believes it's nasty and unnecessarily loud, (which it is), not to mention, all the rude and trashy mortals that tend to fill the places thinking they're better than everyone else.. However, if you want, he will order take out for you both to eat in a very decorated and candle lit location. He feels that's even better than eating in a disgusting crowded restaurant. However, his food is better than any restaurant on earth.. so maybe you will just stick to his cooking.

Maybe I ought to learn more about clouds or something so I can understand why they form all these different shapes.
Positive thing: It was a rough day but I talked to a friend and it made me feel better. <3
Yeah basically it was just one of those days of crying on and off and dissociating and trying to stay as functional as possible. Mostly I just played a lot of Yakuza 7 after work. I'm level grinding for the final boss. I'm not sure if it's because I might've forgotten some details but the ending half of the story feels kinda weirdly paced. Still pretty fun though.
Tumblr media
I was just sitting on the couch a while (something I hardly do) and looking at the afternoon light come through the window. The last thing I hand-washed is still drying out.
It was kind of funny, I had spent some time trying to help out one friend with his troubles and then I talked to another friend about my own troubles. Also I'm meeting with a friend tomorrow to give him some stuff he left with me in Japan that he didn't have room to take himself. We're meeting up at a Panera Bread which I'm not jazzed about because I've been pettily boycotting them for years since I quit working there in undergrad. I guess the food itself is fine. Then again I haven't been there in a long time so I wouldn't know.
I don't know why but I remembered the time I went to an aquarium while I was in Tokyo and sitting on one of the benches watching this huge tank of tuna.
Tumblr media
Here it is. Those fish were huge up close too. But somehow still lightning fast - I remember they'd bolt when they got startled by something and be on the other side of the tank in seemingly less than a second.
That was quite the day in general. It was raining the whole time basically. I remember wandering around the park getting drenched even with my umbrella.
I think it'd be nice to go do something like that again. Just be at the mercy of some mild weather inconvenience. Feel something real for once. Even - or maybe especially - in the cold and wet of that afternoon it felt like one of the realest days I'd ever had.

I’m the anon who had the health scare, I’ve got goodish news! I’m not in pain 24/7 anymore, but I don’t have an exact reason why it happened in the first place. Other then having an awkward conversation with the doc about at home remedies in front of my grandparent, they really didn’t seem to know. I’m going to take it in stride for now and instead ask about our favorite theater cuties: Do the other animatronics get to interact with boys? In operating hours I’m sure it be pretty minimal since they’re confined to the theater and it would most likely be a glam rock coming in to pick up a birthday group. But maybe some after hours?
Anoooon!! 💖💖💖 I'm glad to know you're-- well, at least not in pain!! I was thinking about you yesterday aaaa!
I'm sorry you didn't get actual results though XPP It sucks when you can't point to a definitive reason/diagnostic. (and god does it remind me of the time i spent confused and in pain before the whole gallbladder crisis thing happened,,) I hope you get answers/don't have to go through that again!
: OO Man somehow I hadn't thought about that at all, huh! I'd say they probably interacted before the AU and at the end of it more.
When they did shows in the main theater, it was also where Freddy and Co. did concerts (the original gang, mind you, when Foxy and Bonnie were there). They probably shared 'lodges' with them, and Moon does stage lighting (that's what his cable system was for, at first-- along with scenes that need flying and special ways to move) and it's the thing he's as serious about as his villain roles, so he probably even lent a hand to set up the stage lighting and rigging.
You know those kids who take playing pretend very seriously in everyday life? (no shade, I was like that and literally convinced myself to like fish because of that dfkldgjkl long story) Sun and Moon were kind of thought of like that: sometimes it was a lil awkward, but they were still well-liked
And then, the rock show becomes bigger and bigger, there's less and less theater shows-- Until suddenly no more Sun and Moon one day. Considering that's.. pretty much what happened with Foxy and Bonnie, as far as we know, I think it was just one more instance of not knowing what happened. Was there an incident? (And they do hear about Moon breaking someone's leg in the daycare. Why were they in the daycare?) Did they get sent to parts and service and never came back, like Bonnie? (technically true also! They've been put in storage indefinitely)
I don't think Sun and Moon are allowed very far while they're being rehabilitated, so unless Moon sneaks about and is spotted during the blackouts, the glamrocks don't even know they're active again.
There's a lot of curiosity when the premiere/return of a theater is announced at the end of the summer, though! At first, they think it might be new animatronics which is a lil bittersweet
Once they're reinstated and established, I think they probably start to mingle again. It's probably a little nerve wracking to come back after so long, and as such different people since they really came into their own and became their own people! But it's also much more... fun? genuine, to hang out with them-- the other animatronics get to talk with them and get to know them as people instead of being talked at
I think they probably get along with the gang pretty well. At first, Roxy and Monty have their hackles up because of their issues/especially because they had disappeared for a while and now suddenly they're getting popular again, it's threatening to them) but they're nothing if not stubborn and adaptable, and they end up wining them over-- especially since those two tend to put up a front, and the BaL boys know how THAT is. I think they try to get those two (separately) more confident in themselves and in also in the image they project
Chica is just a joy to be around jkldgl they like her energy! Moon might be a gremlin and teach her to lie more convincingly about her midnight snacks
I just realized idk if there'd still be the virus??? But if there is, I think through a whacky series of circumstances, the boys were kind of 'in isolation' so they don't actually get infected. Might also be at a moment where they're more violent so it goes unnoticed pff
And well Freddy gets along with everyone pff
And DJMM!! They love DJMM and the minis and can nerd out about music for hours pff. They're showmen too, after all-- DMJJ knows about the PIZZAZZ! I think the boys are closest to DMJJ, Roxy and Monty? But separately.
OOP this turned into another long one huh pff
To actually answer your question (oop) yes they do! Obviously, they each have their shows, and the boys prefer rehearsing over just downloading scripts so they can try intonations and timing and such, but I think they also get an actual green room/give autographs and such, so they're on the floor during daytime sometimes, and sometimes they roam at night like the others!
Thanks so much for the ask!!!💖💖💖

Ok this is a really specific.... thing of mine??? Like ok. Why is the PDA still in this game? Ok I mean I get WHY, storage, logs, blueprints, information, warnings ect. OBVIOUSLY.
Buy like. Here's the thing. You know how sometimes it's a bit of a theme for players to start going a little crazy in the first game. This is where the whole, holding a Hoverfish and talking to it phenomenon comes in. Some people play audio logs on repeat to sort of hear people talk in a game where there's no one. What I did, is that I got unreasonably attached to the PDA. It was the only sound I understood and trusted at the beginning of the game, and I felt so good when it said some whatever programmed in, tone-deaf inspirational quote. The entire "scans suggest swimming was your favorite activity" bit will forever be iconic. I thanked it every time it gave me a warning, and it was just this feeling of, I'd rather listen to an unfeeling unaware, slightly better version of Siri than put up with this loneliness.
Now Below zero.
Robin talks to herself externally from the player. Which I mean, it makes it seem like SHE is going a little crazy, but it separates the player from that feeling themselves. (I know some people hate this, and I did too the first time, but I digress) You have detailed voice logs from the beginning of the game, and most important of all. A whole ass guy available to you 24/7 wherever you go.
Siri is a lot less enticing when I have better options.
And I don't mean this in just the way, that I'd rather have the PDA not talk. Especially since unlike the first game, where the PDA is obviously just not programmed for the situation and unironically says morbid, incorrect or even soul crushing shit like It's nothing, making it hilarious, in Below zero it feels like they actually wrote jokes directly into the PDA. It calling coffee "dirty bean water" was so fucking forced I was tempted to @ someone about it on Twitter. And I don't just mean It's now just not as good as in the first game. I also mean it in the way that in almost every way, having a fully functional PDA detracts from the story. I spent a decent chunk of this game trying to do shit to get a reaction out of Al-An. (Btw I will forever be pissed that you can make a toilet in this game and Al-An makes exactly zero comments about it, and I can't laugh as I torture the alien with the knowledge of poop. Is this because Robin is a woman or something?? Let me harass the alien, damit!) And nothing annoyed me as much as expecting Al-An to say something and being left with the PDA saying something right out of a brand tweet. But more important than anything. It undermines the characters beyond belief. Robin especially. Like ok, in the first game you're just some guy, lord knows what your job was but you're definitely not someone who knows a whole lot about Alien fish. So I'm fine with the scanner just inexplicably giving you names, behavior and biological info on animals and plants that are supposedly undiscovered. Like whatever. But please tell me, how a Xenobiologist, or any biologist for that matter still has a job when this thing exists. Now you could make a point out of it, like they did with that doctor in the first game that realized he was completely useless because he only ever let robots do the job. But it's never really brought up how it just does her job for her. Like sure, going in to scan certain things takes a lot of guts, and that's clearly the type of vibe Robin is supposed to give off. That sort of Steve Erwin attitude of "Im gonna poke it with a stick", but it still just feels wrong. And it doesn't explain why spy penglings were ever needed if scanners can even determine an animal's level of intelligence in one go.
But ok I've been going in circles to get to my idea. So, what I would do, is have the PDA be broken. Either during the crash into the planet, or have Robin actively mess it up to avoid tracking from Alterra. So it's still used for storage, you can still keep scanned blueprints, and it still keeps track of all the info. The changes are exactly three. It doesn't talk, no matter what. It doesn't give you warnings or even display your hunger, thirst or even oxygen levels (Put a pin in that it's not that bad I swear), and there's a point made like" I have a scanner, oh... but it can't connect with the alterra database, it can only tell me some things about this animal... I have to figure the rest out myself." Bonus points if Robin is actually nervous about this prospect, realizing she's never researched with no outside sources before. Still brave and ready, but not acting like it's piece of cake or like she's not a little scared of her lives expertise being tested like this.
Functionally, it would work exactly the same. No gameplay changes here. The only things changed would be the writing and dialog. Fauna and flora scans would now be phrased as if written by Robin herself. "Ok, so the scan says this species has a high amount of CO2 in its body, in the same area as its waste passes through. Looking at it, those transparent pouches on its top and bottom are the only places with enough space to hold it. The scans don't detect any way for waste to leave the body, so could it just recycle its urine into clean water to use again like some species in places with sparse drinking water do? It's kind of gross, but I think I could get drinkable water out of that." Something like that.
And with the oxygen, hunger, cold and thirst, who would know better than the good helpful pal literally inside your body? Yep, that's right, Al-An would replace the PDAs survival system completely. He tells you if you're hungry or cold or need to breathe, because he can see into your brain cells or something.
This would mean that for the first bit of the game you would be left to just guess and or memorize what you need until you find Al-An. Maybe have Robin say something here and there. Like, "Ok, I can hold my breath for 45 seconds and I should eat every 30 minutes on average. Gotta remember that". But that would also add a layer to the game. Of the sort of morally gray kind. Do you really want Al-An out of your head? He wants to have autonomy again. But wouldn't you like to keep him around until you find the truth about your sister? Would make things a whole lot easier. He doesn't have to know you're stalling. And creating a two-sided situation where both characters hide information thinking they've got the other one under control would be really fun. Especially with Al-An also hiding information from Robin to make sure she doesn't decide to not make him a body because she thinks he's dangerous. And it would be adorable in the end for both to find out their mistrust was completely unwarranted. They'd both be like, "Wtf of course I would have helped you, you're my friend and I'd do anything for you. You thought I would just leave you to suffer like that?" Al-An could mod the PDA or something at that point idk.

What should I do with a cat that needs to be an only cat (spraying, FIC, fighting) but we're a multi cat household, and rescues are obviously full? I've done vet, drugs, reintroduction, crating, feliway, supplements, playing, separate room and he's miserable, our house smells like cat pee 24/7, the other cats are upset and I'm lost. He's NOT feral, loves humans. We found him outside, old and already fixed. Crating and putting him in a room doesn't help, he hurts himself at the doors and fights the cats through the door. Vet's last suggestion is literally 250mg gabapentin 2x day but then he's comatose. He's progressed to peeing on our air vent and now the house is sick, I am lost. All medical was 100% normal too.
I'm really sorry things are so stressful. I think right now it's time to ask yourself some questions first and go from there.
How much work can you realistically put into this? Be very brutally honest with yourself. There is NO WRONG ANSWER TO THIS QUESTION. Recognizing this is an important first step, both for yourself and the animal. How much time? More importantly how much money?
You said yourself that this cat needs to be an only cat, and there's a lot of weight in those words. Right now it sounds like resident cats AND this cat are under a LOT of stress. But what's most important is that YOU sound like you're under a lot of stress. A lifeboat doesn't help very much if it too is sinking.
Unfortunately for outdoor cats, there are a lot of resource anxieties that you need to overcome in order for them to feel confident indoors. While I'm a huge proponent of keeping cats indoors, we also have to realize that it's not a simple transition when the move inside happens. There's a REASON we have a problem convincing people to keep their cats inside. And, in a lot of cases, these rehabilitated outdoor cats, ESPECIALLY older ones, tend to be set in their ways and take a LOT of one on one attention, training, trust-gaining, the whole shebang. Shit, two of mine were only outside and neglected for the first 6 months of their lives, and we're STILL working on aspects of this 5 years later.
It's okay to not be the perfect, ideal forever home for every cat. Even if we REALLY love this particular cat. Part of being a cat owner is recognizing your limits as well as your cats, and it seems to me like everyone involved is FAR past all of theirs. I don't expect folks who don't own a fish tank to be able to care for a fish, nor should I!
In this situation I can't give advice other than "Give your animal the medication that your vet prescribes". It sounds like this cat needs a LOT of indoor space alone, and a LOT of individual time with many experienced cat rescuers. It's an emotional situation and what I would do in your shoes may not be the response that a lot of folks would like to hear, so I'll leave it there with the addition that I'm really sorry you're going through this. It's really heartbreaking to have to deal with and my heart goes out to you.

So mom called me at 2am while I was dead-ass asleep. This isn’t unusual. I decide not to answer my phone because it’s always some dumb bullshit and I figure it can wait until morning. I’ve told her before not to call me after dark unless it’s an emergency, but she ignores me and always wakes me up to fix her computer or find her makeup bag or whatever, because her definition of “emergency” is jacked the fuck up. She leaves a voicemail saying there’s a racoon on her porch and apparently this is an “emergency”.
I sigh and call her back, just in case. She’s in full panic-mode, telling me to go out there and chase the racoon away because it’s going to “eat her fish” in the pond. I tell her it’s pitch-black outside, it’s 30 degrees, it’s 2am, I’m not awake, I’m in my pajamas, and I’m not going out there to antagonize a possibly diseased and aggressive animal.
“IT’S EATING MY BIRD SEED! IT’S GOING TO EAT MY FISH! GET OUT THERE AND SCARE IT AWAY BEFORE IT BRINGS ITS WHOLE FAMILY!”
I tell her no again, because that’s dangerous and completely pointless. We live in the country, there are animals here. Also the pond is frozen so it can’t eat the fish. I advise her to stop throwing huge fistfuls of bird seed all over the porch because this is what happens. I’ve told her that many times before and she always ignores me, continues to do it, then acts shocked when she gets rats and raccoons. She whines and pouts and tells me I’m being useless and mean to her. Whatever. Click.
Next morning. I spread cayenne pepper on her porch and bird feeders to repel the raccoon in case it comes back. The whole time she’s bitching at me because it’s “going to hurt the birds!” I try to explain to her that birds can’t taste hot things. She’s telling me she “doesn’t believe that” despite me showing her proof online, and continuing to bitch and moan. She’s chewing me out and trying to tell me it’d be gone for good if I just went out there and hit it with a rake. I didn’t even dignify that stupid shit with a response. I warn her not to let the dog out after dark in case the racoon comes back, which it definitely will until it gets a mouthful of cayenne.
Next day. She lets the dog out after dark just like I told her not to, despite seeing the fucking raccoon out there 5 minutes beforehand. She calls me and wakes me up around midnight. “THE DOG IS FIGHTING WITH THE RACCOON! GO SAVE THE DOG!”
I tell her no, I’m not getting in the middle of an animal fight, especially not in pitch-black darkness. She gets mad at me for this and tells me I’m "antagonizing her” and “being combative” and “not helping”. Eventually the raccoon gets away and the dog comes back with some scratches. I call up her tenant who lives in an RV in the back yard and ask him to go help tend the dog’s wounds because he’s up all night anyway and I just woke up from a dead-ass sleep.
The dog is totally fine, btw. But I’m a mean, useless, shitty daughter for not throwing myself between that dog and a wild raccoon while they were fighting in total darkness.
THIS is what I mean when I say my mom is an unreasonable idiot. It’s shit like this. Constantly. 24/7. It just doesn’t stop. This is what I deal with literally every fucking day. THIS is why I moved away when I was a teenager. This shit right here. She does the stupidest fucking things a human being can possibly do in every situation, chaos results, and then I have to mop up all the aftermath. The stress she causes me is unreal.
As soon as I moved back in with my mom, I feel like I stepped into some wack-ass clown world where everyone is insane, and it’s making me question my own sanity at times. Like...this isn’t normal, right? I’m not the one being unreasonable here, RIGHT?

Ive com to realise that a lot of society find things like UTI’s/ water infections funny and a thing to bully people for and to laugh at. I don’t think anyone realised how much that can actually affect a person, especially if they’re someone who has a medical problem which leads them to experiencing them very often or for long periods of time.
I suffered from reflux when I was 3, it’s basically where your urine moves up into your kidneys from your bladder. This resulted in me being diagnosed with scarred kidneys, this had them lead to me experiencing water infections very very often throughout my life.
Now for people who don’t know, utis are actually really horrible to experience. It would cause me to have to go to the toilet 24/7 and often get ‘stuck for the toilet’ including in public which was really embarrassing, along with messing the bed as a child until highschool, and because my pee would ‘smell’ due to the infection id feel even more embarrassed about myself and would question why this would have to happen to me and why I have to be out in embarrassing situations . Also getting stuck for the toilet would mean I would have to hold it for a long time, and if I ever did this it would result in really bad kidney pain, often leading to me lying on the floor crying out in pain(There are even more things what UTIs cause however these are the main ones I’ve experienced, some people get them differently)Imagine you having to deal with that. Now imagine having to deal with them on a regular basis.
When people think of a UTI they think it’s funny. I think it’s because of the fact that it involves your urine and stuff, along with the fact that there’s the whole ‘smell’ situation and how it’s funny cuz some people describe it of smelling like fish. Honestly I don’t understand why society thinks it’s ok to laugh at people when they mention they’ve been diagnosed with one, they’re literally bullying someone who’s having to go through a ton of pain and embarrassment and it’s wrong. It doesn’t matter if this person suffers from a chronic illness that causes them or if this person is a healthy person who just happened to get one, either way they should not be bullied for what they can’t control.
I’ve had experiences where I’ve been trying to explain what my health conditions are, and the moment I’ve mentioned ‘uti’ or ‘water infection’ is always get the same reaction: the person would smile as if they were trying to hold in a laugh, if there were other people with us they would turn to them and give them a weird look as if they were trying not to laugh. These reactions have even come from some of my friends, and it hurts to know that even some of my friends find it funny. I talk about my experiences as a way to feel more understood by people and just so I can talk and get stuff off my chest, I like to rant a lot, but when I do this and people are trying not to laugh at the embarrassing things I’ve faced in the past it really hurts. It’s hard trying to accept that you’re different from others so when you’re laughed at it only makes it harder. I want to be able to talk to my friends about it without feeling scared that I’ll go through this again, However because of the way society treats this problem it means that most people will likely do the same thing: laugh
I made this post so that people could realise that it’s not ok to laugh at someone who is suffering with an illness. That doesn’t just apply to my experiences too, this is for all illnesses. I feel that if I talk about my experiences more then maybes more people will be nicer to us who are going through tough times and maybes more people will be more supportive, meaning we might feel more confident in ourselves
If you see this post all I ask is that you try to change your views when it comes to UTIs, that you don’t laugh when someone says they’ve got one, that you don’t bulky someone because they’re different from you
