Dp x dc idea:
Danny & Co joining the Justice League and everything...but it's that wonderful DC AU where Bruce died in Ethiopia instead of Jason and Tim decided to be Dad (TM) of Jason's Robin and runs around as kid Batman for awhile (eventually becoming full legit Batman).
Danny & Co joining up after all of that, they have only known Tim as Batman (and for fun let's make this Brian Dead where Danny & Tim are dating, or are dancing around each other, maybe Super Brain Dead because I love Kon being involved).
Anyway, Tim is Danny & the Pham's Batman...and then they ended up accidently in the normal DC universe and meet Bruce Wayne Batman and immediately are like "Press X For Doubt" about the whole thing
Danny, squinting suspiciously: who the fuck are you?
Bruce: I'm Batman
Danny: No the fuck you aren't
Elle: Yeah no way, I know Batman, Batman's a sleep deprived twink
Tim (as Red Robin) walks in
Danny: holy shit they fucking shrunk Red Robin
Tim: What??
Elle: Okay what the fuck, first Batman isn't a twink and now Red Robin is???

- manicure: hand massages, cuticle cutting, nail painting, hair washing: head massages, shampoo and conditioning his hair

Since you still have to go to a family dinner tonight: what would a family dinner with Simon or Price look like? Do you think they‘d be more talkative around your relatives, or just listen and/or suffer through it in silence? Do they leave room for dessert? And are you staying until the end or leaving as soon as it’s socially acceptable to catch up on much needed sleep? ❤️🌙 - A
Ah yes, family dinners a;skldfj they're fun but gosh can they be exhausting! luckily everyone only stayed around for about two hours, and as much as i'd love to catch up on sleep, i have terrible insomnia, so enjoy these little drabble/headcanons of our boys instead <3
But ah, Price, my love, I have yet to give him the attention he deserves!!!
Tumblr media
Family Dinner with Price and Simon
I feel like Price is the perfect gentleman, and would be great to take home to your parents!! Your mother would be instantly smitten with him with that charm he holds and the sweet tone to his voice. Careful, she might try and steal him from you! He gets along fine with your father, though there is this awkward tension between the two of them. Just fatherly instincts of course, but Price is good with the small talk that comes with these type of events.
I can just imagine sitting at the table, Price next to you trying to choke down the bitter taste of wine (because your mother told your dad he needed to lay off the beer) and he smiles as everyone converses. He eats the lavish meal your mum spent hours preparing, and even though he definitely did not save room for dessert, he can't say no to the brownies she baked!
I also imagine that this man is trying to hold your hand at least half the time. Underneath the table, he reaches for your hand and pulls it to rest on the edge of his thigh just so he can rub his thumb over your knuckles. He does it because he loves your touch, but maybe also to calm his nerves. (any man who isn't afraid of his partner's parents is a stupid one.)
By the end of the night your mother is chatting him up, asking what he does for work, how much time he has off, and if he'll be free for another dinner sometime in the future. It's not until the second dinner that Price fully wins your dad over by bringing a small case of beer with him as a gift (but really, he brought it for himself because there's no way in hell he's choking down that wine again).
Simon? Well, he's certainly a gentleman, but your mother does not like him in the least. What's with his mask? Sure he took it off at the table, but he looks like a criminal! (i feel like he would remove his mask for a dinner with parents because there's no way this man would just sit at the table and brood lmao). And what's with that tattoo peeking out beneath his sleeve? He's more of a brute than a boyfriend )))):
Your father, on the other hand, laughs at least twenty times that night due to Simon's dry, and flat humor. It's the type of jokes that gruff old men enjoy and the puns dads harass their children with. Your mother doesn't start warming up to Simon until later in the night. He's been quiet and reserved the whole night, not really speaking much about himself, and really, you've done all the talking for him. Eventually, something sort of clicks in Simon, and he goes off on this ramble about you of all things. A funny story of a mishap back at the flat, or maybe some milestone in your life that you had forgotten to tell your parents. Seeing you through his eyes makes her soften up a bit.
Like Price, Simon stuffs himself full, as he's never been one to turn down a home cooked meal (especially because, let's face it, i doubt the man is all that great at cooking) but he has to politely decline your mothers delicious pie because of it ):
By the end of the night, Simon sneaks off to the kitchen at some point to do the dishes. You find him there, sleeves rolled up, that terrible tattoo (according to your mother) on display and shiny with soap and water, and you chuckle and tell him he doesn't need to clean up. He retorts by saying it's the only proper way to thank someone for a meal. (i'm dying on this hill that acts of service is his love language) Your mother walks in on the two of you, Simon covered in more water and soap than should be humanly possible (no thanks to you) and when she sees the smile on your face and the giggles rumbling through your throat, well, she's sending the two of you home with the left over pie and the request that you two return sometime soon. (:

masked au!!!! ok so i may actually turn this into a fic and a few comics because im a lil obsessed with it :DDD
heres some sketches of my Emmet design for it!
explaination in the readmore!!
So!! Basically, after Ingos disappearance, Emmet started to hate his reflection cus it reminded him of ingo, so he took to wearing a mask. Over time, that mask became a sort of comfort item for him so now he rarely ever takes it off, and can become very distressed when not wearing it.
Eventually, Emmet gets sent to hisui cus he fought god and arceus was like "This guy is so silly i'll send him to hisui too :)"
So then he falls from the sky in the middle of nowhere
he has no pokemon, no materials, but he still has his mask
after wandering for a very long time he straight up passes out from exhaustion, and later wakes up in a dark cave
turns out, a crap ton of previously undiscovered hisui joltiks and galvantula found him, and because of being shot out of a portal and weird magic, he is absolutely full of weird energy, so the bugs took a liking to him and brought him back to their cave :]
Hisui joltiks/galvantula are fire and ground types! joltiks are like little blocks of coal with legs and leave charcoal EVERYWHERE
Anyway, guess what is relatively close to this hidden cave full of spiders? haha yeah its the diamond clan
So basically, Emmet is just chilling with his new spider besties, recovering from almost dying, and some diamond clan discover the cave!! and they see Emmet and they're like "ah yes this guy is this massive spider’s warden. definitely" and Emmet just goes with it cus why not? they're the first people he sees so he wants to get on their good side
so stuff happens and Emmet is now kinda an "unofficial" member of the diamond clan. he gets a diamond tunic cus hes kinda another diamond warden, but also he kinda just chills in his cave most of the time and will only leave if he absolutely has to. he's still searching for Ingo, but everything is just wayyyyy to much so he's gonna hang out with his spiders
The whole “being sent to an ancient time” thing and just being so very mentally ill caused Emmet to become very reluctant to speak, so communication was a bit difficult since no one in the diamond clan knew modern sign language. There was also a language barrier, but Emmet is a quick learner and manage to learn the language pretty fast :D he mostly communicates in writing since there's still no sign language option
When first meeting people, they asked Emmet to take off his mask, which kinda made a bad first impression on him so he doesn't really like being around people now :/ but his annoyance with everyone around him kind of accidentally made him befriend melli, cus their both petty lil shits that don't like people much
Melli comes over to his cave and they shit talk people together, and Melli is actually one of the first people Emmet become comfortable talking to verbally because of this! they both think the other is annoying but they bond over it :]
literally this is the strangest relationship to ever come out of one of my aus. these two have never interacted ever. Why did I decide Melli was the one that Emmet should interact with?
these twinks are hanging out in a spider infested cave gossiping about people
Also!! Hisui joltiks absorb thermal energy instead of static energy, so Emmet is often very cold to the touch cus his bugs are stealing his body heat. This also makes him very tired a lot so you can often find him passed out in a pile of soot.
pls ask me questions about my au I want to talk about it so much

street kid dick au
aka some more stuff for a different au i have
ROBIN (dick grayson)
Tumblr media
BLUEJAY (jason todd)
Tumblr media
SPARROW (tim drake)
Tumblr media
plot stuff below:
bruce never goes to the circus. he reads about the flying graysons in the paper a few days later, but by then dick is lost to the system. he’s put in what is essentially juvie, because social services was full, but escapes after a few days and hides out in Park Row.
a few families in Crime Alley let him stay with them in exchange for help with their kids/work/ etc. he never stays too long because he doesn't want to be a burden, but it keeps him going for a few years. eventually everyone in the area knows him and loves him like their own.
after a while of that, he ends up at Ma Gunn's School for Boys. he's a progidy- good at avoiding detection and light on his feet. he makes a great pickpocket for Ma Gunn
dick, in the meantime, is still working on his plan to go after tony zucco. the lessons help, though he only steals from people who are obviously well-off. he makes sure all the boys at the school get fed, and anonymously leaves money for the people nearby that are clearly struggling. he's a sort of Robin Hood (pun intended) figure in crime alley
anyway, flash forward a bit. dick has been working for Ma Gunn for almost a year, and has been looking out for the vulnerable people in his section of crime alley, and the other kids in Ma Gunn's "school"
enter one jason todd, 12 years old and dropped off by the Batman. him and dick become fast friends, and jason joins dick in his robin hood role
one day they realize Ma Gunn is doing far worse things than they thought (IDK SMTH BAD). jason convinces dick to let him contact batman and he agrees, but only after getting out as many kids as he can
the school is shut down, but they stay in the area and decide to protect Crime Alley themselves if batman won't do it. they don the masks more to protect their faces than to hide their identities. dick goes by Robin and jason goes by Bluejay
they become the vigilantes of Crime Alley, but they also help as their civilian selves by babysitting, helping out at stores/restaurants, teaching some basic self defense, etc.
batman eventually confronts them but they come to an agreement. tim, instead of fixating on and following batman, follows robin and bluejay. he realizes robin is dick grayson the same way as in canon but doesn't really have anything to do with the information (aka he doesn't figure out batman's identity)
dick and jason corner tim one night and are basically like "oh shit we gotta adopt this poor kid" when he explains himself. so they kiiiinda kidnap him (he agrees to go but like the cops don't know that). bruce definitely knows dick and jason's identities, and knows they took in tim but honestly agrees tim is better off with them than his absent parents (plus he knows he couldn’t stop them even if he tried)
(tim essentially goes missing according to the police, but it takes a while before anyone even notices he's gone- which just convinces them they did the right thing)
they have an actual apartment (it's not nice or big but it's comfortable and safe enough to live in) and a few safe houses across the Alley, and tim slowly becomes ingrained in the community they've built
(if anyone notices the new kid looks a lot like the missing Drake boy, they don't mention it)
dick and jason train tim and eventually clear him for patrol. he takes the name Sparrow.
jason never finds out about his bio mom (sheila haywood) but he is still taken by the joker and beaten with a crowbar (in gotham, not ethiopia). dick and tim find him just in time but he’s close to dying- even flatlines once- but they get him to the batcave & medical attention in time.
once jason is stable, dick goes back out on his own to confront the joker. since, in this au, dick was never raised by bruce, he’s a lot more morally grey. ergo, he kills the joker after jason almost dies by his hand.
jason and tim are honestly both like “good riddance” cuz, again, not raised by bruce. bruce himself is super pissed but dick (with tim’s help) gives a whole argument with a slideshow and statistics n everything. bruce cuts contact for a while but the three of them don’t give much of a shit, they still stop by the manor to see alfred and keep him company when bruce is out.
(alfred was in the army and worked for fucking MI5, the only thing he’s disappointed about is that dick, a child, had to kill the monster bruce refused to)
after dick kills the joker, jason stays in the manor with alfred for a while to recover. dick and tim visit as often as they can, even separately, and at any time of day. after a few months jason is able to go back to their apartment in crime alley, but is still benched until he’s fully healed. during that time he acts as their ‘man in the chair’ and learns a couple new languages to pass the time.
sidenote: babs has been working with bruce as batgirl for a few years (she starts at 16) when she is paralyzed by the joker and becomes oracle. the joker stuff with jason happens when she’s 19, but she’s doing a semester abroad for college at the time. she only meets the boys after she gets back, while jason is still at the manor recovering. jason and babs become good friends, and she teaches him how to hack/code/work with computers.
LATER
steph (14) comes in about a year later as spoiler, and pretty much forces bruce to make her his sidekick (babs gives her the batgirl mantle). dick (18), jason (16) and tim (13) meet her pretty much the same way they met babs- at the manor while visiting alfred.
tim and steph become best friends, as do babs and dick. jason is friends with both steph AND babs, but his brothers are his best friends. anyway, through those connections (bruce to the girls to the boys) they are introduced to the young hero teams. dick (18) and wally (19) become besties and so do jason (16) and roy (17).

RANDOM CREEPYPASTA HEADCANONS !!!!!! (Clocky, Nina, Jane & Liu)
I sent someone a hc so now i must tell you all mine (mainly their relationships to one another)
CLOCKWORK:
The hands on clockwork’s clock eye spin whenever she’s nervous or flustered. It happens around jane all the time
Clockwork also really likes owls. Like when she wasnt drawing gore she’d draw owls instead (there would be tons of small doodles of them on the edges of her homework n stuff)
She’s also fairly insecure about the stitches on her mouth. Like, she immediately regretted doing this to herself, and ever since she absolutely hated how they looked but has always been too scared to pull them out. She loved wearing masks during covid 100%
She also mainly kills adults. Isn’t sure quite why she kills people at this point. Clockwork’s fucked in the head and is generally a very twisted person, so she knows that at least, but still doesn’t really have an exact reason for it. Revenge? Satisfaction? She just can’t figure it out. But doesn’t give a fuck either way.
NINA:
I have my own sort of au(ish?) surrounding Nina bc man I love her so much (SHES MY 2ND FAV PASTA MY GIRL DOESNT DESERVE THE HATE SHE GETS </3) so a lot of these hcs will have to do with that
Ok now to actual headcanons
Nina regrets killing her family. She felt it was a good idea at first because she wanted to be more like Jeff when she was obsessed with him, but eventually she lost feelings for him and now regrets all of it. It haunts her at night.
She’s extremely hyper as well. Like always moving, whether its bouncing her leg when sitting or tapping her foot while standing, just movement always no matter what. Even in her sleep she never stops moving, wakes up in the weirdest positions all the time with her blankets half off the bed (i may be projecting slightly for this one)
After her obsession with Jeff ended, Nina didn’t really kill anyone that much. After what she did to her family she couldn’t. Nina still has the urges to hurt people but every time she tries she just sees her family and can rarely go through with it. She does occasionally kill people though, mainly if she’s extremely upset or angry. A sick form of stress relief if you will
Nina and Jane get along fairly well, surprisingly enough. Nina hates Jeff almost as much as Jane does (she blames Jeff for everything that happened) and it was this mutual hatred of him that brought the two together. They aren’t the closest of friends, but do spend a lot of time together (aka Nina is homeless and crashed at Jane’s house most of the time)
Nina also didn’t really get much education. I mean she killed everyone when she was 11 and has been on the run ever since, and she also just really hated school and didn’t want to anyways.
JANE (“The True Story” version):
Jane, like Clockwork, is very self conscious about her appearance. After all, she did get seriously burnt and disfigured when Jeff set her on fire, and she never leaves the house without her mask. She rarely takes it off. Even when sleeping. She only lets people very close to her see her face (Aka Clockwork, Nina, & Liu) and even then it’s very rare. Also longsleeves, pants, gloves- she likes having as much of her skin covered as possible.
She’s very close with Liu actually. Jane sees him as a brother. When Liu survived Jeff’s stabbing he was out on his own for a long time, and ended up stumbling across Jane after like a year of total isolation. Him and her became good friends not just because of how Jeff affected them but the two generally just fit together well, they’ve been really good friends for a while now (I LOVE THESE TWO SO MUCH THO LIKE THEYRE BEST FRIENDS FR!!)
Another thing about Jane is that she’s not a killer like the others, really. She doesn’t even know how she got that title herself, her whole purpose is killing Jeff yes but Jane would never hurt an innocent person. Does she particularly give a shit if people get hurt? Not really. Not unless she cares about them deeply. Jane doesn’t care about Jeff’s victims; she just wants him dead on account of her own personal experience. But she’d never hurt anyone who didn’t deserve it.
This actually causes quite some problems between her and Clockwork. I ship these two hard but I would be lying if I didn’t say this was a major tension point. Again Jane doesn’t really get hurt from these people dying, but the two definitely clash in the sense of morals specifically.
LIU
I have my own sort of story for Liu, mainly because since there are so many different interpretations I didn’t know which to choose. Same as Nina i may talk ab it later
Liu’s had it rough since Jeff died. Like, BAD. He didn’t really have anyone else during that time and was alone for a while. When he met Jane he was much happier, but also discovered he was fairly scared of losing them. Jeff had taken away everything from him, and he was so so scared that it would happen again with Jane. With how her and Jeff hated each other, Liu’s had several nightmares about her getting killed. He doesn’t really trust Nina that much though, since she used to be like- Jeff’s biggest fan. He sees she’s changed and is a better, SOMEWHAT healthier person, but he has trouble trusting or being around her anyways.
Speaking of, MASSIVE trust issues, but also gets attached way too easily. The person closest to him stabbed him in the back in the worst way imaginable and now he’s terrified of it happening again. Yet at the same time after a year of being completely alone he’s so desperate for connection that he’ll rush into friendships anyways. It’s sort of this weird guessing game, which side of him you’ll get first, and it depends from person to person.
Sort of random and totally unrelated to what i was just talking about but he really likes forests. Being out in nature snd just exploring the calm environment (especially with friends) is one of his favorite activities.

Can I get some Junebug HC?
yaay the lil cutie :] was waiting for someone to request her!
Junebug 🪲
• she was made much later in The Neighborhood. the city network urged them to make a character that could appeal to little girls who were more fond of girly things, so Al came up with the idea of a preteen girl who could teach kids about being responsible and independence while still having time for fun.
• so many parents HATED her character. the thing that saved her from being removed was the fact that 97% of the children watching loved her and actually started doing tasks their own parents couldn’t get them to do just because she did them.
• staff actually liked her a lot. her silliness and genuine innocence managed to overpower most feelings of distain.
• bad habit of going places she wasn’t supposed to be. there’s a bunch of bloopers in the archives where she ruined the mood by running in front of the camera, yelling out something random, or doing something in the back when she wasn’t even supposed to be there. one of the funniest examples was Junebug in the background of a shot, awkwardly trying to climb down a tree, only to give up and crash to the ground with Richie trying his hardest to stay in character.
• to everyone’s confusion, she’d sometimes ended up in the offices: the main theory being she wiggled her way through a vent. the writers would let her explore before taking her back to the set before anyone figured out she was missing. this was so common, she got into the habit of bringing stuff as ‘gifts’ with every visit. the explanation for the prop food in the cabinets.
• oh, her handler was STRESSED. she was an older woman, well into her 40s, who never married (fiance died in the war) or had children. she’d lightly joke about how Junebug gave her the full experience for free.
• was the wrong height for the first few months of her being around, around four feet tall. this was a mistake, as she was meant to be around the other puppets height, yet didn’t even go past Norman’s chest. she was eventually fixed, to everyone’s dissapointment. the other puppets still ‘mourn’ how tiny she used to be.
• although she brings up her parents and mentions living with her mom, they were never played by anybody. her mother was just a puppet hand that was being controlled by a puppeteer offscreen and her dad never made a physical appearance whatsoever. it took her a long time to understand she wasn’t supposed to point out that this yellow felt hand wasn’t even attached to anything but a stick and to just play along for the skit.
• George filled in the role of an uncle for her both onscreen and off. they became really close buddies despite it all being scripted, with Junebug seeing him as this cool adult she wanted to be like and George just wanting to help her out in any way he could.
• can’t stay still, insists she’ll die if she tries. Gordon would prove her otherwise by yelling, ‘the floor is lava.’
• Junebug was intentionally written to be neurodivergent. Al never told anyone this, mainly because the network did not approve of other suggestions he tried to include in the show and doubted they’d be open to the idea.
• became a bit more sassy after the shutdown. likes talking back to Ricky just because she knows he can’t do much about it.
• Gordon constantly has to pry her mouth open because she’s always eating something she isn’t supposed to. he’s not sure whether she learned this from Goblette, the pups, or even some sort of commercial from the television, just that he’s tired of her spitting it all back up an hour later. if you shook her around, it would sound like a bag of marbles.
• all the Junebug duplicates made a little club for themselves. unfortunately for everyone involved its Rule of Rose 2.0.
• her mask being the ‘agony’ one is exactly what was going on in her head after watching tv. she did not take what she saw well at all, even if there had been an adult figure to help her through it, she would have the most trouble trying to accept it all.
• in the show, she was the ‘oldest’ out of all the other younger puppets, acting like the responsible older sister for them. she’s the only one left, as most of those kids ended up in the unfriendly neighborhood. this is the main reason she has duplicates.

say hi to dyo (they prns) dante and vergil (both he prns) my beloveds. the three of them loosely based off of the wither and the warden from minecraft and the princess from slay the princess
EDIT i forgot. to include the chain on their arm ueueueueu.... just know they have one 🥹🥹🥹
some explanations + closeups under the cut
so like. firstly i feel like i shld clarify that dyos situation isnt like, DID or something, its simply that they have 2 souls in one. sort of like gemstone fusing in su (though i have never watched su myself so dont take that at face value) where garnet was a seperate thing from ruby and sapphire but also both of them stuck tgtr
sooo yeah. the two that make up dyos soul are dante and vergil (names r snatched from dantes inferno lmao), with dante being the gentler one and vergil being the harsher one.
dante is based off the wither from mc hence his hands and the left side of his/dyos face having wither roses / having been withered away, while vergil is based off the warden, hence the soul compartment in his/dyos chest cavity.
dante and vergils personalities (their backstory is too sort of based off of slay the princess; dyo is a prince trapped in a cabin and eventually rescued by their s/o) are taken from the damsel / adversary routes of stp: dante is softer and kinder (to the ones dyo trusts that is) while vergil is harsh and cold to everyone, putting up a wall of unavailability against people he deems as a threat to dyo/dante/himself
dyo themself is sort of like the prisoner (at the end of her route when she is brought outside). theyre cunning and know both how to use their words to settle fights and when to bring out a dagger to end it. but in general theyre just Some Guy to their friends. besides the two very destructive and terrifying entities that make them up dyo just wants to be a Normal Dude and i love them for that
the mask / gloves / turtleneck r all enchanted with spells to make sure none of the destructive aura from dante/vergil leak out and harm others btw
also they all have different ways to refer to people (this is because in my head i have a convoluted explanation that wardens trap souls the same way fae do/ through names, thus dyo beinghalf warden and vergil being . the Fucking Thing Making Them Part Warden kind of have a rule to not refer to ppl w their real names)
dyos s/o who i will eventually find a design for is referred to by them as angel, by vergil as saviour and by dante as songbird/their actual name (that i havent decided yet because i am a silly little guy)
anyway. yeah. stuff i had to get out or otherwise id go crazy
and closesups i almost forgot to include whoops

Alright so I'm trying to take my mind off of some horrible stuff rn, so I'm gonna theorize some more about Indigo Disk based on some stuff I just learned
Before we go further, keep in mind that Pokémon does mix and blend some myths and folklore around to get a result, so it could be many things
So let's get talking about it
Tumblr media
Okay so Terapagos. Pretty obviously our Terastilizing source and the hexagon pokemon mentioned by Heath and the professor.
A few popular theories floating around about it is that it's based on World Turtle mythologies- yes, plural, because it's actually a pretty common mythos found in many Asian religions and even some from Indigenous American religions. Yeah I knew it was mentioned in Hindu, but apparently a lot of people looked at these bad boys and said "yeah that could hold us." It's neat
BUT Terapagos itself is neat in that it's name also references Galapagos Islands, famous for Darwin's study of evolution and also home to Galapagos tortoises.
Could be something, could be nothing.
On a different note, you know how everyone figured out that the Teal Mask legendaries are based Momotaro? There's another Japanese folktale that could bear some significance here.
The Tale of Urashima Taro
I am going to paraphrase, but essentially, a guy some kids messing with a sea turtle. The guy stopped them and helped the turtle back to sea. To thank him, the turtle offered to show him a place called Ryugu-Jo- or as it's known to us, the Dragon Palace, an underwater castle at the bottom of the sea, where Taro met a princess named Otohime, and was welcomed and treated handsomely for several days. After a bit, Taro became homesick and wanted to return home. Otohime gave him a box called the tamatebako, warning him to never open it. When Taro came back to land, he found that 300 years had passed. Everyone he knew and loved had died, and everyone basically thought he sank at sea. Taro opened the box thinking it might help him, only for a puff of smoke to transform him into a feeble old man.
Now let's look at what's represented here:
1. Sea turtle
2. Underwater kingdom
3. Taro is warmly welcomed
Obviously Terapagos is the sea turtle here
The underwater kingdom?
Tumblr media
Maybe not so much a kingdom or Dragon Palace, but it is a very fancy underwater school dedicated to battling
And as for the warmly welcomed part: we're exchange students, by this point already Champions of Paldea, and we've met and hung out with Carmine and Kieran in Kitakami- plus given how Pokémon usually is, we're most likely given the welcome wagon.
Now the question is this: given the ending of Urashima Taro, are we to expect something bad to happen to us?
Idk about 300 years passing, but given the history that Heath endured in Area Zero and the madness that eventually took over the professor, it's probably safe to say this turtle may not be so innocent.
Of course, there's another theory floating around that also makes sense: Atlantis. Everyone knows Atlantis, especially modern interpretation that it's a lost, ancient civilization home to all sorts of ancient technology. Blueberry Academy most likely could fit this as well- but... maybe also the Dragon Palace.
Think about this: who makes a damn school underwater? I know mine flooded in heavy rain, but we usually tried to AVOID the water, especially water that could lead to thousands of pounds of pressure breaking in and drowning us all. That and the school specializes in battling- why here?
Unless... this facility is looking and preparing for something.
A place? An object?
Maybe Terapagos IS the object and its being kept there- another reason to be out at sea is to hide. After all, how did it leave Area Zero otherwise? Why the secrecy with the name in the books?
Now let's consider this: who would have knowledge of Terapagos? The professor obviously, but they're dead
At least... one of them.
In Violet, Arven's mother left shortly after he was born. In Scarlet it was Turo. In fact, lots of employees left the original professor.
Theory time: the opposite professor took Terapagos to Blueberry Academy to hide it.
We know that the professor invented Tera Orbs about 10 years ago- that means that they had access to Terapagos that recently.
We also know the AI hated the professor's plan and wanted to stop it at all cost.
What if the deadbeat parent came back for Terapagos? Or eas entrusted with it by the AI at some point?
We also know BBA is a fairly recent build in comparison to N/A Academy, which has been around for hundreds of years.
My theory is that the opposite professor had the school made- or maybe was hired into it- in order to hide Terapagos or use it for their own purposes.
Hell it may not even be the professor. It could be any other of his employees.
Anyway that's enough theorizing. For all we know it's all unrelated and Terapagos just shows up somehow.

Death Be Damned Pt. 4
Tumblr media
~Trigger Warning: Typical TWD warnings. Minor Character death. depictions of violence. (minors DNI) If any other Triggers apply please let me know.~
A/N:Sooooo I took a bit of a break again and I was a bit stuck on what I wanted to do. Like I've said before I don't like how much unnecessary death is in the show but that doesn't mean there won't be any. I think some are important for character growth. I hope yall enjoy this chapter I am hoping to post another this week.
Wordcount: 2,035
Each member stood outside the doors of the now-locked shower room. They all stare in disbelief at the body laying in front of them. None of them dare to speak first until you and Daryl round the corner.
“The hell happened here?” Daryl’s question was hushed not to alert anyone who might pass through at this time of night. Glenn’s voice is the first from the otherwise stoic group, “No bites...had the doctor look him over. He said it seems like a flu virus of some sort.”
“We are having him and Hershel going around first thing in the morning to see if anyone else is having flu-like symptoms.” Sasha’s soft, clear voice rushes out as she crosses her arms.
“I’ll help them I had a few years in as a Nurse while I was in the military.” You couldn’t help but pipe up in the meeting of the council members, even if you weren’t one yourself. Daryl glanced over at you questioningly for a moment before choosing to ignore whatever thoughts he had about it.
Carol looked over at the two of you before speaking up, “We need to get ahead of this. Quarantine his whole cell block and post a guard. Keep anyone else from dying needlessly.”
“We can’t just send anyone over there and possibly get sick too” Glenn’s conscious speaking for him.
“I’ll do it. I was already exposed to Patrick just by killing him.” You couldn’t help but look back at the boy’s body. This kind of stuff never used to affect you but this time it’s different. These people are entirely innocent. “We all need to start wearing some type of mask too. If it’s a flu its mostly spread through the air.” Pulling your bandanna from your pocket, you start tying one around your head to cover your face. “What do I tell them when they ask why I’ve locked the cell block door?”
 Carol sighs as she looks over at you, “The truth...just sugarcoat it a bit. We better get a move on then. Try not to let this spread.”
With that, you take the key from Daryl and head to the cell block. Checking that everyone is in the cell block before locking the door and setting up a chair where you can see the whole cell block and its occupants.
 The night goes by in a slow drag. Eventually, people start waking up and coming to the front of the block to head out for the day. The first was a dad and his two girls. “What’s going on? Is there something wrong?” His worry is ever present in his voice as his hands grip his daughter’s shoulders.
You give him a tight smile as you stand to talk to him. “We had someone pass away from this block last night. The council is putting the block on lock down until everyone gets checked out by the Doctor. He should be here soon.”
“So...we...we are locked in here? What if someone else is sick?” You are quick to step forward and put a calming hand on the man's shoulder.
 “It's all under control. We have medicine to fight it off we just need to have the doctor make his rounds and once you’ve been cleared we will isolate those who haven’t been. The best thing for you to do now is take your daughters back to their room and keep them company.” The man looks down at his daughters next to him and he nods taking them back to their room. Each interaction goes about the same until the doctor finally arrives at the cell block door.
After letting Dr.S and Hershel in, locking the door behind them he fills you in on what the illness is. “It’s likely a mutated form of swine flu. It’s a fast-acting strain so if the whole cell block was exposed then they will either be asymptomatic ond non-contagious by this point. But the ones with any symptoms should be secluded from the others. I’ve already let the council know.”
Nodding you look around at the other cells. “What do we tell the others that aren’t sick?”
“I’ll have them all go to the showers to decontaminate just in case and stay in another block. This one will need cleaning.”  Nodding you head to the top of the block starting from the end while Dr.S and Hershel work the bottom row of cells. Only 3 of all the people examined seem to be experiencing any symptoms. Karen, David, and the father of the two daughters Ryan. It wasn’t until the final cell on the top row that things started to look grimmer. A growl has you pulling your hunting knife from its sheath. Pulling the makeshift curtains to the side it a walker makes its way to the bars. It felt like an eternity as the man got close enough. sticking the long hunting machete through the bars he simply walked into the blade himself. Pulling back and taking a deep breath you turn to look at Hershel and Dr.S talking at the bottom of the steps.
They give pause looking at the grim look written across your features. Shaking your head and walking down to give them the news. “Who was it?”
A shaky sigh escapes you, “I don’t know his name. I only met him last a couple a nights ago when he swapped me on fence duty.” He had been nice to you and given you a fresh water bottle before taking your place.
It was then that Rick and Daryl walk through the cell block doors. “Bathroom should be clear for the others to wash up now. How’d rounds go?” Rick’s calm voice has a hint of anxiety to it.
Not wanting to have the others relay the bad news to the others you take it upon yourself. Pointing up to the cell you give another sigh, “Only one passed. Must’a been sometime in the night, he locked himself in his cell. Only 3 others are showing symptoms.”
Daryl’s eyes followed where you were pointing. His stoic features only give away the sadness and recognition slightly. “That’s Charlie’s cell. Use ta sleepwalk.” His voice was quiet as the name left his lips.
Looking to Dr.S you decide to relay any other information as Rick and Daryl head up to take the body out to be buried.
The day progresses slowly until screaming can be heard at the front gate. By the time you make sure Judith is safe with Carl and Sophia, you make your way to the fence Rick and Daryl are already on the other side of the fence leading the walkers away with the sick pigs. Pulling your hunting machete out you make your way to the other side of the fence killing off any stragglers that get too close to the truck. Daryl shouts out the window at you with half a grin and the other half worry, “What the hell ya doin’ woman? Gonna get yerself killed!”
You only smile over at the man before you slice the closest walker’s head clean in half. By the time all the pigs were dead and all the walkers from the build-up were laying motionless Daryl and Rick swing back around to pick you up.  You plop down next to Rick who doesn’t seem very happy about today’s events either. You give him a knowing nod.
He gives a scoff and half smile, “Why the hell ya gotta be like that? That was stupid.”
You roll your eyes at him as you all re-enter the gates “I ain’t never been smart Rick you know that.” You wink at him and shove his shoulder. The small playful smiles on your faces fall when you both see a very upset Tyreese.
Everything seemed to happen all at once and one right after the other. On zero sleep You stand over the chard remains of three bodies. The same three that you had led to that room earlier in the day. Karen, David, and Ryan were all dead now. It isn’t until you have to help pull Tyreese off of Rick that it becomes so real and so fast. Your first thought going to Sophia and if she’s safe being here with a murderer along with this flu. Then the pain hits you that she isn’t yours to look out for anymore even if you desperately want to. At that moment you decide it's best for you to leave. This would cause problems if you don’t.
~3:00 AM ~
Sliding the last thing in your old bag you decide it's best to leave without as many people knowing as possible. Leaving a handwritten note for Carl, Rick, and Sophia laying on your bed for one of them to find. As quietly as possible you make your way to the front gate only to be stopped by a gruff voice.
“Ya really leavin’?” He has been the only person this whole time that’s been able to sneak up on you without even trying. Freezing to your spot only nodding at the man in the dark of the night. “Why? Ya found yer family here...”
Sighing at the man you turn to fully face him. “Daryl...I don’t have any family. My brother is dead. Sophia ain’t mine and well Rick was just Shane’s best friend.”
He scuffs, “That’s some bullshit and ya know it.” He starts pacing slightly like he usually does when he gets upset. You’d seen him do it a few times now.
 “I can’t stay Daryl. It’s not fair to them if I do.” Turning to walk off you stop as Daryl grabs your arm just tight enough to keep you from stomping off.
“They need ya and yer just gonna leave? Sophia still needs ya. Ya’ve been protectin’ her this whole time and now you are gonna leave her high an’ dry? I can’t accept that.” His grip tightens slightly at his words.
You rip your arm from his grip. “You’re gonna have to. Carol is her mom. Not me. I only promised her I’d get her back to her family. I should have just left that first night. Would have been easier for all of them.” With that, you stalked off. Daryl tries to follow after you but you make a break out the gate and toward the woods faster than Daryl can get them to close the gate back up. Tears stream silently down your face as each step gets harder to take away from the prison that was starting to feel like a home for the first time in your life.
After finding your bike that you had hidden away from the prison you made your way as far away from the camp as you could. Little did you know they would have needed you more than ever in the next few days to come. Weeks later you go back just to check on them. You regretted ever leaving since you ran out the gates. Seeing the overrun fences and the walkers everywhere your heart shattered. It was the worst feeling you could imagine. Anger coursed through your veins as you slashed your way through every single walker in the field then all the ones in the courtyard. Even the fatigue in your muscles was pushed aside by the pure rage burning through you. By the last walker you still hadn’t found any of them. Only a few were people you recognized but the others had to be out there somewhere and you were determined to find them again and make sure nothing else would ever happen to them again.

Hellloo I’m back with more stuff, this time with BLU Pyro!
So, both RED and BLU Pyros have a condition where they see killing and fire as playing and frolicking around in a fantasy land.
BLU Pyro is very aware of his condition, so he was on medication until the administrator took it away for equality’s sake.
She is generally more intelligent than her RED counterpart, more in line with that of a teenager than a child.
He views Engineer as a father figure, and depends on him to communicate with the rest of the team.
Is generally more prone to violence compared to everyone else, but it’s mostly because he sees it as treating the RED team with kindness.
Has talked to Engineer about her condition, which has greatly impacted her perception of what is real and what isn’t. Engineer usually helps him out, but it can be difficult in most situations.
Pyro doesn’t see the other team as babies like RED Pyro, but instead sees them as friendlier versions of themselves. Like instead of having weapons on them they had lollipops and bubble blowers.
In her first battle, she was quick to go out and see what awaited her outside. He was met with a sort of paradise, with wide fields and lush grass. Flowers were growing in small patches as well. They eventually came face to face with an enemy, which from their perspective looked like the RED Medic was going in for a hug. Pyro tried to reciprocate, which just ended up with her getting stabbed by a bonesaw. He was very afraid of Medic for a while after this.
No one really knows what Pyro is, because she never takes off her mask in front of anyone. Even when he’s sleeping or showering they’re always seen with her mask on. The others are too afraid to ask, or don’t want to breach his privacy.
Pyro is very oblivious to the violence around them. To her, it looks like she’s just having fun with her friends, and sometimes appears in different places. Engineer thinks it’s for the best, given how everyone else has been handling their situation.

my coworker touched my arm earlier and then immediately pulled it back and said sorry because she knows i don’t like being touched. that was fine, but then she tried asking if there was any reason why or if i have a learning disability or anything.
i just kinda laughed it off and said no, because I’ve not being diagnosed with anything, but she’s not the first to ask me that (not just because of the touching thing, there’s plenty of other stuff that makes me a little funky) and idk if it’s worth getting tested?
how’s it for you, knowing that you’re only a few points off but knowing you have it 100%? is it better in any way?
(pls feel free to ignore this ask if you want <3)
i think that because i've always been a little off, like- i've never felt like everyone else and i mean that in a very lonely and isolated sort of way. My difference was never something that i needed answering by some diagnosis, i only needed to better understand myself so that i could advocate for the treatment that i needed from the people who love me.
now, my family knows what i mean when i say i'm overstimulated, i'm not judged for needing things a certain way or at least i'm judged less. if anything i think my internal voice has changed the most. when i need quiet time i feel less guilty for taking it, when i need certain sounds to stop, i don't feel bad when i ask for it. when i enjoy stimming i enjoy it fully without wondering if it's weird or worrying. everyone masks to some extent, but now i can like- intelectualize it better.
i think it's also different because my mom is also like- a little probably neuroatypical. like when i say she hyperfocouses on plants i mean she thinks about them probably 12 hours out of a day, she can't tollerate certain things like sticky feelings, the sensation of a cars airconditioner, sleves, or socks. so it's more of like- a conversation with her rather than an explanation to get the things i need.
i'm sorry i don't have a more concrete answer for you. that sucks that your coeworker touched you when you didn't want it, i wouldn't feel upset at her asking you- for some people (espcially people like me who are on the borderline) i ask sometimes because like- i want to know so i can help better accomodate or understand the person who im asking.
there is one at home test that you can do and here is it, it's like- been tested with a 95% certianty that people who score above the silected thresholds will eventually text positive for autisim. so it's a pretty valid self diagnosis tool.

( Imma send more later, but - ) His secret had been long out, concerning his little blossoming crush. It's a wonder he hadn't been questioned by Mikey yet about it. "Let me guess, you hate me now, too?" Arms are folded against his plastron, but he looks calm. For the moment at least. ( 2003 verse for the bab. :3 )
| Muse interaction
It never took long for any thing to slip and make the rounds when any of them had a secret. Though Mikey had to admit even this was a bit well out there. Seemed nearly everyone had made their opinions made on the matter of Leo having a crush at least it seemed to only be a crush. On one of their biggest, nastiest foes ever. Like this guy was up on the list a lunatic cosplayer with quite the sick and twisted mind. He had overheard Leo and Raph's talk hard not to with Raph's big mouth after all. Mikey just wasn't sure what to make of it at the time he had been lying low in all truth keeping to himself. Buried away in a reread of the Justice Force. He was trying to sort of just leave his mind blank and empty over the matter. Not that he wasn't aware of others all starting to state what they thought about all of this towards Leo themselves. Funnily enough they were a very opinionated family. Hidden behind the paper boxes he used to store and organize his comics like a nice little reading nook. Everyone seemed pretty focused and busy with what was going on with Leo to even pay a second towards Mikey. Of course, their leader in Blue however would eventually sniff him out and find him. Mikey's noticed their feet when he lowered his eyes over the panels of his comic. Slowly lifting his eyes up and lowering his comic when he came to see it was Leo. He offered them a smile and set the comic to his lap as he went and idly rubbed the back of his neck. "aw man is training back on now? Thought we all were getting a nice long break since ya know everyone's pissed and we might kill each other." He joked a little trying to get a feel for his brothers mood in the moment.
"Let me guess, you hate me now, too?"
"wha!?" the word falls out of his beak before he can turly have a chance to process that idea.
Tumblr media
Comic soon closed, and tossed off with no care where it landed in the moment. As Mikey went and made his way out from his little make shift box book nook as he went to stand up watching how Leo was keeping himself closed off by crossing his arms over his plastron. But that didn't stop the look on Mikey's face how could leo ever think that? "Leo I could never hate you, you're my big brother I look up to the most ya know? I don't take the ninja stuff seriously but your like my role model when it comes to it and-" He slowly closes his beak a bit and lowers his gaze taking a moment to think. In truth he was trying not to think about this all. Trying to avoid it if he could and guess his time sort of ran out on that. "Honest Lee? I dunno what to think if I'm honest. Heh I'm used to not ever thinking I guess."
Mikey jokes a bit as he looks back to Leo now, letting his usual smile weigh down. He starts to play with the end of his mask feeling over the strands as he dose try and think about it. He just felt like he owned it to Leo in the moment his big brother, the one often most on his side. Seemed to least think he had some worth. The one he wish he could be like more if he bothered to ever try. But, Leo also somehow manged to like someone like Bishop? That was hard to process he had to admit. "Lee I don't get it I guess, ya always all about honor and doing the right thing. Wanting to save and help others. If it's out fight or not. You're like the heroes in my comics..the ones I wanna be like." he slight confesses because he wants to be like Leo too. "But the hearts a weird thing. Sometimes the string on it get tug by someone you don't expect. I mean heck if batman can love cat women and she turned out to be good in the end" he rambles a little comic's were all he really knew after all. "I don't trust Bishop Leo but i have always believed in you. So I may not get this crush of yours you got going don't mean I could ever hate you. I trust you. I know you know hes nuts but well." he trails off once again. "I'll trust you know what you're doing." Moving to hug them anyway not care how Leo had his arms crossed in the moment. "I think you're nut too but I could never ever hate you Lee."

🍂 Does your OC enjoy hugs? What do they do as a show of affection for: their friends, their family, their significant other(s) or for strangers? Over all what are they like with recieving affection from others?
(Boy I got ramble-y on this one! Apologies? xD)
That's a big no from Jak - there's been very little physical affection, and lots of physical abuse, in her life; her family was great and all, but that was a long, long time ago. More recent are memories of what happens when someone bigger, and stronger gets their hands on you. She's a small person, and has worked hard to be as physically fit as is 'humanly' possible, really... but that fear lingers, and hugs feel like traps. You're encircled, and held to someone - and often it's sort of thrust on you without any announcement, or time to say no.
Her physical space is hers.
That being said, someone who challenged those boundaries eventually won the right to stay in those boundaries, and all bets are off with 'her Wolf', really. There's been times he's hit walls with her, but... in time, she's always come around. He's earned her trust in a way no one else really has, and physical intimacy is kind of a big deal for her, now! It's still new, and kind of confusing and intimidating at times (they've always challenged each other, so for him to know so much more about intimacy, as well, is downright unfair, in her book) - but she's not huge on public displays of affection - though she does have a thing for just... playing tail tug-of-war? Or just teasing his tail with hers (sometimes he starts it!) - rare that she'll do this with a partner if there's something serious at hand, but lounging around the Bluesky Estate? She's been caught a time or two, sharing small intimacies like this. (And while Jak gives a 'name' to everyone, the names are so important when it comes to her dynamic with Ketsuchi - whether he's calling her 'Little Robin' - a diminutive that no one else is allowed; a once hated name... has become a special thing, to her. Cherished. A name for him only - or rather, for her, from him. Or, sometimes, he might call her by her tribal name, which is also reserved for... well, family usually... tribe, and no one else. She allows him to see beneath the masks - the truest sign of affection, in her mind.)
The tl;dr? She's not a fan of intimacy from any source save for one, really. Even just emotional stuff - she's not sure how to respond!
When it comes to friends, I'm not super sure! Few have stuck around long enough for her to establish (healthy) habits with them - thus far it's been a slew of people who pull away from her when she does let them in, and... there's a lot of self-loathing that tells her people will do that. She's not a 'good' person by most people's standards - but she expects people to believe her when she says 'you're not going to like what you see in me,' so when she tentatively lets a friend see the fucked-up-person she is? Few stick around, despite all the warnings. She's obsessive, possessive, and paranoid - even when she means well, she can often go overboard with what she might think is a display of 'affection'. And people think they can handle anything - until Jak does some truly unhinged shit like burning her then-boyfriend's wardrobe - and buying him a whole new one, because he dressed so sloppily, and in her mind? She's on her way to crime royalty, and she's very close to it already - she can't be seen with someone dressing like the court jester. She also once ah, drugged a friend who was being abused by her brother, in an attempt to kidnap her out of a bad situation... and that went about as well as one can imagine such a situation goes.
Love doesn't change a person. She can't just...intuit what she's supposed to do, she spent her youth either in a tribe, or in a concentration camp - and learned at the hand of the Garleans what it meant to be 'strong'. What it means to take what you want... and then defend it. She's learned to speak and act with authority - even in relationships. Although her involvement with Ketsuchi - even long before their more intimate involvement - began to teach her more about just... interacting with people. Expectations that should be fulfilled, even when you don't necessarily want to. And most importantly - stopping to think about how your actions will impact the people around you. She'd be ashamed to admit it, but if she's at a loss for what to do in a social situation... sometimes she'll even ask herself what he might suggest, or do. She's not like other people, but sometimes you have to at least try. So... she's intuitive with others' emotional states, and picking them apart for it... but is never really sure where her emotions should be, or how to act in certain instances.
(Honorable mention for 'friend-intimacy' - her 'pal' Frey has earned enough trust that when they bring her rolanberries, she trusts Frey enough to eat the berries right there! Not even an inspection for poison, or anything else nefarious! Now and then they even talk about their own lives a little. But much like she skirts the word 'love', maybe skirting the word 'friend' means this one will stick...)
If Jak is showing affection? In romance, it's summed up as acts of service - or just... allowing that person little things she doesn't allow others. With friends? Trusting them with more and more insights about herself, what's on her mind... maybe even gifts, though she's not very good at those. She tries, when an idea strikes, though! And if she offers food? You eat the food. She loves to cook, so if she's offering you something she made with her own two hands?
Eat it. It means something, alright.

and then 😭🎭👑💧 for ronan because i miss him
NOW THIS IS THE GOOD SHIT!!!!! thank you for asking about him i NEED to bring this man back i miss him too. god. need to draw something for him and john again soon AUGHH
Tumblr media
😭 CRYING - what makes them cry? do they cry easily?
ronan rarely cried before the events of the game and then. well. [gestures vaguely] you know LMFAO especially his trip to the mountains didn't go all too well for him :// it wrecked him emotionally to the point he was just teary eyed on the daily for a while, and the consequences of it all are still something he has to deal with nowadays
any kind of affection can make ronan very emotional nowadays, especially from people he had not expected it from (basically almost everyone to be honest). he tries to limit his crying a little bit because it makes him exhausted for the rest of the day and he hates it, so it's almost like. he just. schedules his crying sessions for the evening LMFAO so he can just pass out when he's done <3 while staying in the bunker he cries basically every week and it kinda depends on how much shit his brain is putting him through how Often during the week
🎭 MASKS - do they act differently around certain people? what's different between the way they act around friends, family, strangers, etc.?
ronan tends to be pretty reserved around new people, taking a while to warm up to them cause he usually expects the worst for the sake of his own safety and mental health. he really wishes he could trust people more easily but has been taken advantage of like that in the past so he doesn't let people in that quickly anymore
when he's around his friends he is a lot more relaxed and drops his reserved demeanor and also his filter <3 says the most weird and random shit that comes to mind at any given moment of the day and his best friends know this about him and actively encourage him to keep doing it because it's funny as hell, other more recent friends might be a bit ??? about it at first. when ronan warmed up to john and began saying random shit, john initially thought ronan was speaking to him in some sort of code language LMFAO
nowadays, ronan tries to act like people expect him to act a little bit. he knows not everyone is very happy about him sparing the seed siblings and giving them a second chance so he kinda tries to appease to people a little bit as like a way to make up for it all ://
👑 CROWN - what does your oc want to be remembered as? why?
ronan wants to be remembered as someone who never gave up. he doesn't care if people mean it in a positive or a negative way, but he doesn't want people to remember him as someone who did nothing; he gave everything to try and help the people of hope county and even after the bombs fall he tries to improve people's lives, and he gets a lot of shit thrown his way and could've easily just stopped helping out at any given point in time but he actively chose not to do that
💧 DROPLET - random angst headcanon
ronan is terrifying of growing old :( despite really wanting to live, he also just. hates the idea of becoming old and losing physical abilities and needing other people to help take care of him and stuff, he doesn't know if he will have anyone when he's old and also hates to think about the fact his friends will eventually die and could even die before him. especially during the events of new dawn he sometimes wonders if he's just better off alone, and occasionally considers walking away from prosperity. he doesn't do it at the end of the day, because he has too many responsibilities there and loves his friends too much, but the future is terrifying to him and he prefers to not think about it at all <3
oc asks!

Had this really weird dream that an apocalypse happened. And everyone was like dying if not dead but only some ppl died. No zombies just ppl dying versus not dead but alot of ppl died and societal collapse etc.
Then we started living in abandoned places and I lived in a hotel at some point woth my roomates
Then I grabbed some important stuff and we moved to another place. The are we were in was pretty chill. But I remeber I left something at the hotel and plus my room was filled woth spider webs one day so I went to go escape that.
Got back and it turns put society started up again despite there being no signs of it having started in the general area where my roommates n I were. I figured this was a nation wide thing so I explained to the front desk that despite their hotel being up and running I had stayed at this hotel during the time it was not occupied and I wanted to go to my room to collect some important belongings bc I thought I'd be returning back to my home.
I was informed that it was my home and that I couldn't go. But I stressed they were important and I lied and said I had family photos intherr. Then I asked if perhaps they moved my belongings else where.
They then told me the room number I stayed at had not been rented out yet and is most likely untouched so I could retrieve my belongings with the aid of a staff member. (who looked like this girl at work who's fake name is sosa)
She said she would took a me to where i stayed at but she was taking me in a different direction through the washing machine room so I ran away bc it fel suspicious and tried to take the normal elevator instead of their work elevator bc I know how to get to the only place I've lived at during the broken times. Despite being told that I was wrong.
The guy at the front desk held open the elevator despite me trying to push the buttons to get to the room and then instead he somehow magicked the elevator to be outside and trapped me and the other ppl who were on thr rlevator wit me in a car and they were driving us and he said where but I wasn't really listening because I was trying to focus onnthe car ride seeing where we were going and what everything looked like.
It was a long drive and I knew I wasn't gonna be able to get back to where I was bc we must've been in another state n city.
Despite the hotel appearing to be running functionally as some sort of strange society. The car drove us past war torn areas with military then through areas where everything seemed upperclass and normal. Then downtown where there was a small society albeit strange and strained and then through places being maintained thru military force. We drove through places that were calm but seemed strangely empty. Most of the time it seemed like people were hiding. Very different from the areas I'd seen during the apocalypse Era that were cluttered, but funticional. Sort of just a group of distant neighbors trying to survive together. Eventually we slowed down just outside a downtown city were on the outskirts were surrounded by a military task force.
I climbed through the back seat into the trunk which was a hatch back and found some blankets and me and another car kidnappe (who looked like masking) kicked the window open woth the blankets and rolled out of the car in them. We ran off to start making our way back to the Hotel. The car drove off without us for whatever reason. Dream reasons probably.
And it felt like a fps map and we were walking around hiding behind ac units and crouching in very nasty polluted water. Masking went off to go find clues and I went to scout the ground. But a party went up and I was getting shot at in polluted water. I probably died and got restarted at an early position on the map lol. Then something happened and I woke up. Lol
