Jack Krauser as a caregiver (mainly for petre) / and as a little or flip

but separated for those who would only like to be babies

pre infection and post resi 4 he is thinking about retiring so you coming into his life is a blessing

a reason to cling to his sanity, someone he can protect and spend his ridiculous amounts of money on he gets either as a salary or as a pension

loves when you regress and show weakness as he isnt used to a display of that total daintiness. adores it wholeheartedly and wouldnt change it for anything.

loves the outdoors and car rides/roadtrips, if you accompany him on one he will be over the moon

camping trips with just the two of you, making marshmallows and stargazing are frequent with him

you can howl at the moon/ bring him cool sticks and rocks you found,/ you can even hunt and catch some insects, but he always reminds you to put them back to their place later as they are living beings too

you can play hunt with him tho as well, he is a master of hide and seek (but will tone it down for you)

you can watch movies in the car without headphones on

will teach you campfire songs and tell you o n l y the exciting and funny stories of when he was working

loves a puppy regressor, but is open to any other animal and he will be fascinated to learn to care for you in new ways

you two will visit pet shops and he lets you choose toys and equipment for helping you regress

will bake you cokies resembling dog treats/make you chicken strips and eggs (fox), i can see him fishing from time to time and he is happy to prepare his catch for you (cat)/ will keep gummy worms and sliced fruit in his backpack for you (rodent, bat) if you like them even different seeds, nuts and dried fruit (the student mix rocks imo) as well

any time you want to go outside he will go with you to the backyard and watch you explore and play and even join you if you ask i him, any way, he wont take his eyes off of you

likes playing chase or tug o' war and he commits to the bit with holding back and letting you win, but we can tire you out (either pre infection or post re4 that is very considerate and impressive of him with all that power and the physique)

you will have your own little playground with slides and swings amd monkeybars but he is perfectly okay with taking you to one in the neighbourhood

watching shows on animal planet about the one you regress to - will tell you if the cuties in the show act just like you and will praise you for it

if youd like he can give you a cute petname (there is a big chance it has the structure similar to the codenames they used all the time)

not experienced with a little not as a pet regressor but regardless will be eager to learn and helps with the regression

is very patient amd lets you stay in the headspace as long as you like

prints you coloring pages (using the militarys money)

no but really scrap papers, templates noone will ever fill, he just takes and uses the other side

now your colored pages sometimes will have a military stamp of the branch he workes in on

and sometimes gets your art mixed in between his work papers

likes helping you out with your creative projects

very lenient on your bedtime as having the night to himself and passing out at 2am watching something with you on the tv, when the kids channels all have either switched to some other type, are repeating episodes or are playing really old shows is a rare treat he couldnt have without the consequence of being tired all day next day

now you two are sleeping in as much as you can and enjoying life

likes morning walks with you on the occasions you wake up early, when the neighbours are still asleep and the sun hasnt risen yet

if you get tired he can carry you

will cook for you but hasnt got anything against fast food

will surprise you with toys he saw you looking at online or you got mesmerised with watching an ad

some of the shows you two watch together are: bluey, jake the pirate, paw patrol, mickey mouse clubhouse, the crearure cases, scooby-doo, the garfield show, madagascar, barbie and the newest my little pony series - he likes the old one as well but thinks it may be a bit scary somstimes for a little

flip part

sometimes when he reads you a story his mother used to for him as well he gets emotional and may regress with you

this feeling isnt new to him but only since meeting you can he really word what he feels and needs

its perfectly fine he doesnt push you to be his caregiver if its not in your nature or put you of your headspace, he is content with playing and cuddling with you

but if you take care if him when little/pet regressed or if you arent a typical cg but as his beloved he at the moment doesnt wanna label his nature of relationship with, he will melt

will totally cry

will cry everything out those moments

slipping into littlespace especially, there is at least an hour of that always in the beginning

uses baby-talk or goes non-verbal

doesnt like to think of you as his mommy, because the relationship with his family is complicated: the relationship with his mom is sacred. this is not to say you can never fill the void in his heart left by growing up and away from her, he just doesnt wanna put that burden on you, this holy image of a guardian, kind of like God. his mom tried her best to keep him safe, yet he went off to the most tiresome, cruel and demaning job, he still feels ambiguous about it, thinking he upset his mom by going against her kind nature. his dad better not mentioned, doesnt like to think of him even not in littlespace, he absolutely forgets he has a dad when regressed.

sometimes he just repeats "im sorry" over and over. about his men, how he treated leon if he went the canon way, if not how he almost turned to the dark side.

wants you to kiss his scars better.

big hoodies to hide his arms, he still feels insecure about them. you can reassure him he is the strong and brave boy he was.

has a 50+cm plushie of his fave animal which he carries around everywhere

you will have a cd collection of all the shows and movies he liked as a kid

he will be commenting on them while you two watch it and introduce you to the characters. if you get lost, totally helps you out by telling you the story

if you make him meals he had as a kid he will cry happy tears

is open to modern media as well

at one point he totally was into pokemon, but seeing his beloved characters fighting is saddening to him so he only plays pretend with raising them

his plushie collection. totally has the cats legs hanging down to the floor. yall need to wash that one more or put socks on it so those will get dirty instead of the stuffie

gives names to all his plushies and has a journal where he writes down what happened with them in their day to day life

you can regress together as well and have tea parties with them

Wow, my OC is in digica. This is a fake card tho. Parody... card?

I found templates of digica cards and got inspired on Peter Sudarso's custom cards (a friend showed me photos of those) so... why not making a Taisuke card?

Why not Daichi, you may ask... Those templates do not come with Green, Black and Purple colors (alas), so i was a bit upsetti. But hey! Black Agumon is also a Red card so... It fits.

And Taisuke himself suits Red deck's mechanics. But here i just played with Daisuke's specialty because, well, I had no idea how to write down cool moves for a fake card lol.

Daichi is more of a brainy person, so he would probably be a Black Tamer card. Kiyoko is more like Taisuke, so possibly Red too. Eiji would be Purple since it's the only color for BlackTailmon, and Hoshi would maybe be Yellow or Green I guess?

I love your art style! I looked at the original of your last picture with Blaine as a "man in a tie" and it's so cool how you interpreted it. During my search I found the painting "Portrait of an American Sailor" by j.c. leyendecker and thought it would be perfect as a template for some of the outfits Kurt wore!

oooo thank you so much!!!! that’s a really good idea! i’ll definitely draw that one soon

another kurt picture i might draw is “boy graduate” but tbh that could be any of them lol

i appreciate your requests tho!! thank you again <3

thoughts on the armour trim from the 23w04a snapshot

losing my mind over the armour trim!!!!! this is the first time i've EVER explored a snapshot, i mean look how cool this is?? [mojang article]

Ward helmet, Wild chestplate, Sentry pants, Rib boots just as an example! in order to get this in survival i'd have to raid an ancient city, a jungle temple, a pillager outpost, and a nether fortress. plus a bastion to get the smithing template in the first place! here's all the colour combos on netherite, posted from reddit.

misc thoughts:

i really like that it encourages exploration. it's always cool to check out the world.

i don't know why rib is such a dark colour. it looks a little out of place when you try to mix n match yknow?

i LOVE that they force you to raid a bastion. makes netherite a little more late game and that much more tantalizing/valuable. awesome revamp!

the actual templates look a bit too moddy for me. i love the trim feature so much tho that it's a small price to pay and idc

i like that you can mix and match the colours and templates! lots of customization. it's hard to choose my favourite colours and designs :D i spent like an hour playing with them and couldn't pick my faves

i like that they reduced the enchantment glint. i always found it was a bit excessive and obscured the armour (especially on netherite, which has such a cool design) so this is a welcome change

we definitely need an advancement for collecting every template!

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE ECHO SHARD COLOURS. IMAGINE IF IT WAS ANIMATED. SCULK ON THE ARMOUR. HOW COOL WOULD THAT BE.

please mojang............. let my add trim to my tools................ do you know how often i've accidentally fortuned/silk touched the wrong block :( i'd love to be able to tell which tool is which at a glance!

trim idea: it's the same design no matter which one you select (like wild trim on a pick will look the same as the dune trim), or you can have 'tool trim' and 'weapon trim' (or maybe every tool/weapon needs a trim? so you need to find the sword trim for the sword etc) and find it in a blacksmith chest.

more trim ideas: ELYTRAS. BOWS. THE EDGES OF SHIELDS (to not obscure any banners). ARMOUR FOR HORSES (and dogs..... pls..). SADDLES. CROSSBOWS. TRIDENTS.

i'm so excited!!!!!!

HI JUST FOUND UR BLOG LOOKING FOR A GOOD TEMPLATE TO STEAL FOR MY INTRO POST AND UR PFP IS RLY COOL AND I WANTED TO ASK IF U MIGHT HAPPENT TO HAVE A LINK FOR A POOR TRAVELER?👉👈

ALSO WHATS A WHUMP

Unfortunately I do not have the link to the picrew anymore :( I'm so sorry, I wish I could be of more help! Thank you for the compliment tho :)

What's a whump? I'll tell you!

Whump is a sub-genre of horror that focuses on pain and comfort. It usually consists of a whumpee (someone who is getting hurt), a whumper (someone who is hurting the whumpee), and a caretaker (someone who helps the whumpee recover). For example, my work in progress is about a 14-year-old boy who gets kidnapped by a dark web livestreamer who makes a living off of streaming torturing him. Obviously I don't condone torture- there are many reasons that people write/read whump, but for me it's a healthy way to channel my intrusive thoughts. That's one scenario, but if whump sounds interesting to you, I'd definitely recommend these writers:

@whumblr @whump-tr0pes @as-a-matter-of-whump @starrywhump @t0rture-me @darkthingshappen

and many more!

Whump isn't for everyone, but it is the most welcoming community I've ever seen if you do want to be a part of it! Hope you have a lovely day and sorry about the picrew! <3

I remember getting into drawing and I was drawing every day. I used to copy official anime artworks and screenshots from episodes and my todoroki drawing still remains the best drawing I ever did.

Then one day I got so upset which ended up in me losing all interest to draw.

It's honestly so painful. Thinking I've made progress and some emotional turmoil is all it takes to make me stop drawing.

Also the reason I was trying to draw was because I was too poor to commission a drawing of my oc in mha and her bedroom LMAO

I literally tried learning drawing perspective for that!! I even searched up and found that artists draw their own MHA bedroom/their oc bedroom and it was so cool!! They have this template thing and they draw their own room it looked so fun.

I couldn't draw the room tho because I have no talent with drawing especially the two-point perspective stuff. I struggled with trying to draw the loft bed.

Her bed was supposed to.be those loft bed with a couch or table underneath. Just bc thats what I think is cute :>>

they'll prolly be someone doing a "um acksnhully" but like most screenreaders work more than well enough as long as the test selectable or is just text stored in the html. If it's in some container or buried as a CSS class, (like the god awful wordpress template websites like to do) then it might struggle. Even then the advanced screen readers (and things like zoomtext that comes built in on a lot of student/disabled pre builds) has a straight OCR puller if it really needs. So as long as there's raw text and good contrast, then don't worry about it too much. Legit the worse shit for me is official shit like Canvas that have a gazillion cross referencing apis and gray on white text. Even easier way is that a lot of browsers have a "read" mode, which will just pull text away from garbage so as long as even something like that can grab the text then it's good. Edge of all things is good for testing since their built in speak/read can go through a website.

oh cool! thank you for the info. i think what's got me feeling so overwhelmed is everything i'm reading about accessible web design is all aimed towards actual professionals and the like while i'm just sitting here like "plz.... i have a some links and a few gifs..."

i'll definitely still do some checking w different tools tho since the back end of my site is held together by a simple template i found, constant referencing to W3Schools, and my own personal hopes and dreams lol

thank you again ❤❤

These are a couple of panflets on the Théâtre de la Porte Saint-Martin Les Misérables from 1878, probably the earliest adaptation of Les Mis, the theatrical drama by Charles Hugo, Vicky's son.

It premiered in 1863 at the Théâtre Des Galeries in Brussels, just one year after the publication of the novel. This is the OG cast

of which I can't seem to find any pictures of yet.

The play is divided into prologue, the first part called: Fantine, the second part: Valjean and an epilogue.

It sticks close-ish to the brick and even closer to the now almost 2 centuries of adaptation canon templates. Like seriously so many standards of les mis adaptation are born here.

Still tho there's some weird adaptations choices like the amis and Javert dying on an explosion, or Javert's backstory being changed to his dad being a guard??at Toulon??? and him and Claquesous are cooworkers ig, as well as Montparnasse being there in the Montfermeil scenes for some reason, Valjean also escapes without going to Toulon a second time idk little stuff like that.

If you are interested in reading the 1863 libretto here google books and gallica

Going back to the french staging I found this little booklet for the first part of the show. It's pretty cool, it resumes all the plot of that first act; from the Bishop up to Cosette and Valjean arriving at the petit Picpus and there's an opinion bit at the end about the actors, the direction, stage design.

The way they've separated it into two makes me think that maybe they've just split it into two different shows? I can't seem to find anything on the second act of this production. I've also found restagings from other years that seem to do the same [1904]

This one from [1908] has the full thing but separates it into a 3 part play.

Either way the most important thing for me here the cast

I found pictures of some cast memebers, in costume.

Bits & Pieces, Themes & Evidence

Morning Everyone! So, below are just a bunch of bits and pieces that me, my fellow theorists and/or others in the fandom have come up. They don’t really fit into one, cohesive theory, but they’re most about or have come out of 10x18. I keep joking that this is the episode that just keeps on giving. We’re STILL talking about it and figuring things out about it.

Leah as a Hallucination/Daryl’s PTSD:

It’s been suggested that in 10x18, Dog never actually left Daryl. The episode is cut in a way to suggest that Daryl went long periods without seeing Dog (which is symbolic, of course) but maybe that’s not true and Dog was always there. Not only is that super interesting, but it works with one of my first observations. When I first watched the episode, I thought that the second time he sees Dog, first time as a grown dog and not a pup, and meets Leah, he didn't seem surprised to see Dog. So, I thought maybe he'd seen Dog a lot by then. I changed my mind for the sake of the symbolism. If it represents Grady, it makes more sense that Daryl simply recognized him as the pup me once met, but really had been separated from his for awhile. But I’m just saying this hallucination theory and the idea of Dog being there all along, just backs up my first impressions. That's all.

Also, weapon13whitefang left a long comment on my Tumblr post about Leah being a hallucination. It's really not so much about the show as about PTSD because they have some experience with it. I found it really interesting and enlightening, so it might interest some of you. You can read it HERE under the comments.

Why He Got Defensive at the Idea of Leah Leaving Him

A couple of my friends were talking about this, and this is just my contribution to the conversation. I think it's directly because Leah is predicated on his time with Beth. Even if he's not consciously aware of the delusion, some part of his UNconscious brain knows that Leah = Beth. And he knows Beth wouldn't have willingly left him. Not only because she said that, but because when she DID disappear, it wasn't her fault or her choice either time. So, when Carol says, "maybe she just left," Daryl's brain rails against that and he gets really defensive. And the interesting thing is that it's really not about him taking it personally or about his ego. It's about what he knows to be true of Beth. It's actually his brain being really logical in the midst of the delusion.

The Talk Dead to Me Podcast with Lynn Collins

I listened to the Talk Dead to me Podcast and this week’s guest was—no surprise—Lynn Collins. No huge TD smoking guns or anything, but it was interesting nonetheless. First of all, one of the really big C@ryl accounts was pretty much called out for being a toxic troll.

For anyone who doesn’t know, Lynn Collins gave a different interview a few days back (not this podcast; just a different one) in which she mentioned that Daryl and Carol’s relationship is very mother/son. Just after that, I won’t say the name but one of the most well known C@ryl accounts who can be REALLY nasty to…well…I was gonna say other shippers but pretty much anyone in the fandom who dares disagree with her, called Lynn an ageist for saying that Carol was mothering Daryl.

So, when the podcast began, Johnny O’Dell, who is the host, said that most TWD fans are super cool but a lot of the shippers can be toxic. He doesn't mention any particular ships in accordance to that (I actually think he briefly mentions all of them, saying people ship Daryl with Carol, Beth, Connie, and Rosita the most) but then after saying SOME of the shippers can be toxic, he talked about the post she made calling Lynn Collins ageist and said that was ridiculous and toxic and that we need to be cool to the actors. So, it's very obvious it was her comment he was talking about.

And of course, the ageist thing she accused Lynn Collins of is ridiculous. Not only is it true that Carol and Daryl’s relationship can be very mother/son at times, but saying so is not an insult to Carol. It’s a comment on the nature of the relationship, not on anyone’s actual age. Of course Carol isn’t old enough to be Daryl’s mom. But that doesn’t mean she doesn’t mother him.

Then when Lynn Collins came onto the podcast, she addressed the ageist comment. She basically said everything I said above in more detail. She talked about how she was taken aback by being called that because, being a woman over 40 in Hollywood, she actually deals with a lot of ageism. And about how she's a mother, but became one a little later in life (in her thirties, rather than her twenties) and she was shocked that being called a mother can actually be derogatory to some people. It REALLY shouldn’t be. It’s really sad that people would take that as an insult. And then she went on to say that any character can be maternal, even if they're not the biological mother of the person they're mothering. She even said Daryl is somewhat paternal to Carol, teaching her how to gut a fish and everything.

Now, maybe this is neither here nor there when it comes to TD stuff. But one thing I thought was really interesting was that Lynn Collins said when she first started watching the show in S2 or S3, she was actually a Caryler. She wanted them together originally. She also said that eventually she realized that's not where they were going with it and kind of moved on.

But the thing is, it just proves to me even more that she's being told to talk about it in a particular way. If everything she's said is true: that she was a raging fan and has been in the tags and talking about it a ton (and she says that on the podcast again; that she would get really excited about it and watch with friends and they would tell her to chill, lol) then why on earth would you talk about Daryl and Carol as a mother/son relationship...unless you were instructed to.

She knows how passionate and sometimes toxic the Caryl ship is because she used to be one of them. So that just drove home for me that this isn't something she would just come up with on her own. And I did like what she said and how she said it. I honestly think she's trying to help the Carylers feel better about things, but also let them down gently. And of course there are some hardcore Carylers, like that account that said the ageist thing, that are just never going to give it up. Not much anyone can do about that.

The only other thing that struck me about the podcast, and also brought to mind stuff said on TTD, is that I'm more and more sure that everyone knows what's up with Leah's character. If she's an illusion (and I'll assume she is until we know different) I think everyone knows that. I think Lynn knows it, Norman, Melissa, all of them.

For one thing, she said in this podcast that she didn't know if or when she'd be back. That was kind of a slip of the tongue, I think, because we already know she's signed on for S11, and she's announced it. And they're filming. So that's just untrue. And I thought that about Melissa on TTD, too. She said she didn't know what the Leah story line would be, they only told her a little bit back in Bonds when she had to say "her dog." But Melissa is a long time, mainstream cast member. I just don't believe that she doesn't know where the story is going. Again, just something they're instructed to say. But something else occurred to me, too.

When Melissa talked about the "her dog" line on TTD, she said, "there was a line that became a thing." From that, I have to assume she meant that people started to obsess about it online and wonder what the "her" was about. I honestly don't know if anyone other than TD picked out that line, but they might have. Either way, between this, and their reaction to the Caryler's "ageist" comment, it proves that they read the online theories. And of course we all already know that, but there's proof. That ageist comment was posted like 24 hours ago. And already they're addressing it and obviously don't like it and don't want people thinking the show or its actors are associated with that sort of thing.

Which is exactly why I think they HAVE to know about our Leah-is-a-hallucination theory. Even others outside our fandom suspect it. But the writers aren't addressing that. And don't get me wrong: I don't think they will. The Bonds line was literally MONTHS ago, and they waited until the Leah episode to address it. Because otherwise, they'd have to give spoilers and they weren't going to do that. But my point is, if the hallucination theory was not a thing (kind of like Rick being on TWB was not a thing and Lynn Collins being an ageist is not a thing and Beth not being BBQed at Terminus was not a thing) they would be addressing and discrediting it. They aren't. I’m definitely side-eyeing that.

Daryl’s Search for Rick/Beth’s Search for Liquor

This is something my fellow theorists and I were discussing back and forth for a few days. I’m not going to give you the entire conversation, but someone said something about Beth searching for liquor in Still and couldn’t that be a foreshadow? See—you’ll probably hear more about this in coming weeks—but we’ve been rewatching old episodes like Still, Alone, and others, with an eye toward what we’ve learned from S10 and especially the bonus episodes. And we’re realizing there’s a lot more foreshadowing in them than we ever realized before. Most of what’s in them we’ve looked at in terms of the Bethyl romance and of course Beth’s return, but I for one have never thought to go beyond that. Yeah, I REALLY should have.

So here’s the thing. We always talk about Daryl searching for people, but Beth was searching for liquor in that episode. I've never really thought to connect those two things. It either represents the same template of Daryl's search for her, or it might represent her searching for him. But then, those two templates may be one and the same. I need to think on it more and make more connections.

One thing it did make me think of, though, is that there's a theme about not accepting the first and only thing that comes your way, because there's something bigger, better, happier, more fulfilling down the road. So, Daryl didn't want Beth to drink the peach schnapps because that's a weak drink. He wanted her to have a REAL drink. And of course we've talked about this theme in terms of the peach schnapps before.

But we kind of see it everywhere, including in relationships. The small, short term relationships all follow this pattern. Maybe it’s not a terrible relationship, but it’s not true love, either. So they need to move on from it and find the more perfect relationship for them. The locations or homes do, too. So, in 4b, we saw each of the groups stop somewhere and try to stay. And it wasn't so much that they chose not to. More often than not, circumstances forced them to leave. But still. The theme is that it was better that they moved on so a bigger reunion could take place.

And on that note, Leah really still does fit the short-term relationship pattern. If the point was to always show short term relationships that weren't ideal and something better coming down the road, that's why they wanted to do something like this for Daryl. Beth is obviously going to be the much better, more fitting, more fulfilling relationship, where he belongs, etc. But I think they knew they couldn't do that without doing a disservice to Daryl's character. The only way to satisfy both criteria was to make her a hallucination. So the pattern is still there, but for him, it's not a real or literal relationship.

Find Me Theme

So, @wdway is the one who reminded me of this. Back in 9x05, Rick gets hurt and starts hallucinating right before blowing up the bridge and being taken to the CRM by Jadis, right? All on the same page? Well, in that episode, there’s a huge theme about Rick finding his family. In every hallucination, he tells the people he sees—Shane, Hershel, etc—that he’s looking for his family and needs to find them. Near the end, he hallucinates Michonne and the others being with him on the bridge, and Michonne tells him that they’re his family and he did find them. Then, just before he shoots the dynamite, he says, “I found them.”

And now we have this episode called “Find Me” where Daryl is obsessively searching for Rick, and there’s a ridiculous amount of Beth symbolism thrown in. Are we seeing the over-arching theme?

So, what does this mean? I don’t think I’ve really pinned it all down, yet. But I do think this is an over-arching theme for the entire show. I think in some ways, “home” and “family” are synonymous, because home is wherever your family is. It’s not a physical location.

But we started out with Rick looking for Carl and Lori. Then Merle went missing, and Daryl searched for him. Everyone searched for Sophia when she disappeared. And the list goes on and on. So it’s a big theme. I’ve always said Andy didn’t leave the show just to spend more time with his family. That’s a happy bonus, I’m sure. But this was always a planned part of the story. Now Michonne is actively looking for Rick, we see Daryl searching for his body. And the reason Beth symbolism is thrown in is because he searched for her, but they didn’t show us that and won’t because it would be spoilery. And Beth is alive, even if Daryl doesn’t know it. And yeah, I could go on and on. Just wanted to point out this theme and how important it is. Which leads me to….

The Three Spikes

The last thing I’ll mention is the grouping of the three spikes he sees both by the door and on the outside of the house that we’ve all been trying to interpret. I kind of had a breakthrough the other night. But the thing is, it’s not just a breakthrough on the three spikes.

It’s kind of a breakthrough on the ENTIRE rule of threes theme. It’s actually kind of epic.

So here’s how I came to this. I was going over the template in my head, yet again, that I mentioned is shown both here, in 6x03, and that will be in the spinoff. So let’s run through it. We’ll use this episode, 10x18, as the example. So, Daryl is searching for Rick, right? And Carol wants him to stop and come back with her to where Zeke and Henry are. Those are two possible choices for him. But there’s also a third: staying with Leah.

Similarly, in 6x03, Daryl goes searching for Rick, rather than staying with Sasha and Abraham. Those are the two things he’s trying to decide between, and he eventually goes back to Sashraham.

Now, there is actually a third choice there. It’s just that Daryl doesn’t seriously consider it. The third choice is going back to Alexandria to help them. And this IS addressed in the episode because they talk about how they don’t know what happened, but some loud noise pulled half the herd off the road. We, the viewers, know it’s the Wolves, but Daryl, Sasha, and Abe really didn’t know what was going on there. And who is back in Alexandria, spear-heading the defensive against the wolves? Carol!

So you see what I mean. There are three possible choices there: find Rick, go with Carol, or stay with Sashraham. And I’ve said forever that Sashraham = Beth/Bethyl. And of course so does Leah. So the third choice is always the one that represents Beth.

Do you see where I’m going with this? If not, I’ll just tell you. This represents three different paths for Daryl. They’ll diverge at some point and he’ll have to make a choice about which one to take. And then I realized—duh!—they’re all actually represented for us here in this episode. Not only because of what I said above, but because Leah lays them out in her ultimatum. Where do you belong 1) out looking endlessly for your brother 2) back at the communities with your family (i.e. Carol) or 3) here with me.

So those are the three paths that he’ll have to choose between during the spinoff. That’s what the spikes are about, because they specifically dealt with his three choices in this episode. But that may even be the reason they used the rule of threes around Beth to begin with. She’s the third and correct path.

Want more proof this is a thing? @wdway sent me this pic after I first told her about it:

And guys, go back and watch this. When he gets to the crossroads, the camera pans around him, showing him being unsure about which path to take.

Then, while writing this up, I remembered that this did this in 6x03 as well:

On the left is Daryl on his bike, rejoining Sasha and Abraham who are coming down from the top.

Yeah, 3 paths. 3 spikes. Rule of 3s. Who’s excited for the spinoff? 🙋

Now, just one more thing not add to this I think you all will like. In re-watching 9x05, there’s the part where Rick hallucinates Shane, right? Well, part of their conversation there is about the “third man.” And I’ve talked about this before, but probably not nearly enough, because it’s more important than most of us give it credit for. Rick and Shane talk about when Rick was shot in 1x01 before the apocalypse hit. They say they thought there was only 2 men, but there was a third they didn’t know about and “that changed everything.”

I always saw that as perhaps a statement about Grady. Because they should have had three prisoners for the hostage exchange, where Dawn only had two (Carol and Beth). But after Rick killed Lambson, they only had two. If they’d had three, Dawn wouldn’t have been able to demand Noah back, because it would have been an even exchange. So the third man would have changed everything.

Another way to think about it is that, if the shot that hit Beth didn’t come from Dawn—and it REALLY didn’t, y’all) then there was another threat somewhere that they couldn’t see and didn’t know about. If they had, they might have been able to guard against it. See what I mean? I genuinely believe they used Rick’s arc in 1x01 as a jumping off point for planning what happened at Grady.

So, when I rewatched 9x05 and heard this conversation between Rick and Shane yet again, it made me think of the three spikes and Daryl’s 3 paths. So what if he only knows about the two paths he can take: look for Rick or go with Carol. But there’s a third path he’s not aware of, yet. But the third path changes everything. Because that’s where/how he’ll find Beth.

Eh, eh?

Okay, well, I’ve given you enough to chew on today. These are just some things we’ve been discussing from the episode that just keeps on giving. ;D Meanwhile, episode 19 will be airing in a few days, and it will be fabulous, too. Probably not quite as epic as 10x18, but still fabulous. ;D Thoughts?

whats dtl about ifff ud like 2 talk abt it i see cute sprites & decide i wanna know things.. hehe the top hat n cape guy gif is in sync w my music hehe

IM SO GLAD U ASKED this game is probsbly my favorite game ever its been a special interest if mine since i was 7 and i dont think its a GOOD game per se bt i love it a lot and it impacted me a lot as a little kid w a mild interest in art :)

so basically the game is a little 2d adventure platformer where u get to draw and design the character u play as. its p clunky and the way ur character moves looks rlly silly bt again this game was released in like 2010 on the ds so its ok .. the game also gave u templates to go off of and use too just in case u didnt want to design a character from scratch

the story of the first game is abt this world that was drawn into existence by “the creator” in the book of life. u hav this little sequence where u get to draw the world, and the forrests and the creatures tht wld inhabit it. the creatures tht inhabit the world are callec raposa and they r little fox creature w funny ears :)

like this guy (his name is zsasha and hes a thief but hes like a bad one who ends up returning all of the stuff he steals and also watching over a little orphan girl who he basically adopts LOL)

in the universe if the game the “creator” eventually went silent and the raposa lost hope in them ever returning. the world was slowly shrouded in darkness and gradually all of the raposa inhabiting this little village were either lost or left on purpose bc it was slowly falling apart. the game starts when one of the remaining raposa, mari, prays to u, the creator, to come back and help restore her village, saying that everyone else has lost hope but she still believes you can return to her. u can answer, and either say that u will help or you wont, but either way u end up agreeing to help her and she goes to tell her dad, the mayor, abt it. you create a “hero” to be the vessel you will speak thru, and thats the character u end up designing and playing as. the game is abt going to various areas from the village and rescuing all of the raposa that are lost there, as well as restoring the village to what it used to be and drawing in bits of the landscape, like the sun and plants and stuff.

the villain of the story is a guy named wilfre, who was another villager in the town who ended up drawing in the book of life bc he wanted to create things the way the creator had. he ended up making these big inky monsters and got consumed by them, and when u meet him at the beginning of the game he tears up a bunch of pages in the book of life which get scattered across the land and you have to collect them in order to restore the village.

so u basically just go around saving villagers, collecting pages of the book of life, and redrawing bits of the town that were lost to wilfres shadows. eventually wilfre ends up like, killing maris dad (the mayor) and then after youve restored a majority of the village you enter his realm and kill him!! yay :)

throughout the game you also meet these two weird npcs called heather and mike. heather is a little raposa girl who has half of her face covered in shadows, and shes mostly mute. shes found early on in the game and is taken care of by another one of the main characters named jowee

mike is a character u end up rescuing later on in the game, hes p confused and doesnt know how he got where he is, and hes also different from the other raposa bc he doesnt have ears like they do and kind of just looks like a normal human (even tho none of the raposa know what that is and they just think he looks rlly weird)

in the first game heather is shown to take a liking to mike but it isnt explained why and she doesnt talk to its left unexplained

so yah the first game ends with you, the hero, defeating wilfre. mari takes on the role of her father and becomes mayor of the town, and all of the raposa (+ mike) live happily in the town youve restored. the hero goes dormant because theyre no longer needed and u get a scene at the end of the game w them sitting by the ghost of maris father.

the SECOND game takes place a while after the first game, in which wilfre returns and captures heather at the beginning of the game. he also kidnaps a bunch of the other villagers and transports them somewhere else, and he drains the color out of the village the raposa were in. they end up fleeing on a giant turtle with an abandoned town on its back that appears while the color is draining from the village. inside mari and jowee find another mannequin similar to the one the creator had drawn the hero on in the first game. they pray to the creator for help and thats when u draw the hero u get to play as for that game!! the hero doesnt seem to remember mari and jowee or any of the events of the first game, but they agree to help them rescue heather and all of the villagers wilfre stole.

jowee also has like, this magic pendant that belonged to heather that he found after wilfre took her, which seems to be leading them to where heather is. they use that to navigate the turtle thru the ocean to a bunch of other islands on the world. the second game is basically about traveling to different islands and helping them restore the color thats been drained out of them by wilfre. you also meet these two characters, salem

who is a villain in the first island u travel to, and sock

who is a villager on the first island u visit who ends up befriending jowee and traveling with them while they try to save heather.

so ur doing all of that but THEN, halfway thru the game mari is shown to be talking to wilfre, and then she dissapears. jowee assumes wilfre has captured her too, but shes later seen on the turtle again, and rips out a bunch of pages in the book of life the way wilfre did in the first game, and then wilfre appears to take her away and says that shes working with him now. jowee is heartbroken but resolves to get her back as well as heather

THEN, sock, jowees friend from the first island whos been tagging along and helping out, is ALSO revealed to be wilfre in disguise and he betrays jowee and steals heathers pendent, leaving jowee with basically no means of finding heather and wikfre and mari by extension.

so eventually they do end up finding where wilfre is and mari is like “jowee you dont understand wilfre has shown me the truth of our world and who the creator is and thats why im helping him” and jowee is like “i cant believe yoy are helping him how could you i cant believe you bla bla bla” and so wilfre is like “FINE ill show you the TRUTH of this world” and takes jowee and then the hero is kind of left ln their own for a bit to like wander around the world and try to keep rescuing ppl and such. and eventually jowee comes back and is like shaken up but kind of vague abt what wilfre showed him, but he still decides to side with the hero and the creator and eventually mari is convinced by him to join them again as well

so u fight wilfre again and EVENTUALLY wilfre reveals that if you defeat him basically the entire world will dissapear and thats what hes been trying to avoid by fucking w things and messing with the book of life. so all of the raposa have a bunch existential crisis abt them ceasing to exist if they go thru with this but then they decide to to it anyway bc the alternative is just as bad blah blah and u go and kill wilfre and he does this when he dies which is cool

[the gif was fuckjng broken im sorry but like look up his sprites and youll fjnd it 💔]

and now heather is back!! and her and mari and jowee are all talking about mike and how important he is and meanwhile mike has no clue whats going on and is kind of freaked out by all of this, but theyre all like “mike you need to wake up” as theyre all fading out of existence and shit around him and eventually him and heather are the only ones left and they dissapear too

and THATS when you get the ending and find out it was all like a dream mike was having while he was in a coma after a car crash anx this plays while the credits role lol https://youtu.be/Kur0qaYM1jM

youtube

^ they ended up releasing different versions oft he game w a less dark (but still w the whole ‘it was all a dream twist’) and thats it!!

there was also another game released for the wii that like gave wilfre a girlfriend kind of but i never played it to completion bc it used the wii remotes motion controls to like draw and shit and it was rly janky and hard so i never finished it and most ppl did the same. i kind of rlly want to try playing it again tho bc it was a p cute looking game even if the controls were fucked up

AND YEA thats drawn to life its a weird silly little series tht i was obsessed w when i was a kid and it still holds a special place in my heart :) i basicaly just spoiled the entire series i guess but if u have a ds or a 3ds (bc the game is backwards complatible ! ) id still suggest like getting a cartidge off ebay or something and playing it bc its honestly a rlly sweet and beautiful looking game and i think a lot of it still homds up even if the controls r rlly janky now

#theres also rumors of another game in the series being released on the switch so :)#THIS IS SOOO LONG HAHAHA IM SORRY I RLLY CARE ANT THESE GAMES #long post

uwu uwu, post pattern pls do? (only if u want to tho!!)

OKAY HERES THE PATTERN FOR MY HEXAGON BLANKET which looks like this ⬇️

for worsted weight yarn:

cast on 20.

row 1: k to end.

row 2: k, kfb, k until two stitches from end, kfb, k

rows 3-4: k to end.

repeat rows 2-4 (i just think of it as two plain rows between every row with increases) until you have 40 stitches on the needle OR the slanted sides formed are the same length as the cast on edge, depending on your gauge. i measure the sides with my free needle. this is the first half of the hexagon! from then on:

row 5: k to end.

row 6: k, ssk, knit until 3 stitches from the end, k2tog, k.

rows 7-8: k to end.

repeat rows 6-8 until you have 20 stitches left on the needle OR the sides are all the same length/the hexagon matches itself when you fold it in half, depending on your gauge. then cast off loosely and you have a blanket panel!

more tips:

this pattern can be adjusted easily for different yarn weights. for example for a bulkier yarn i may only cast on 12-13 stitches and only do one plain knit row in between every increase/decrease row; for sock weight yarns i cast on something like 30 and do three plain knit rows between every inc/dec row.

i have a hard time staying consistent and sometimes forget how many plain rows i’ve done even with how simple this pattern is, so i found it helpful once i knitted a hex i thought was the perfect size to trace it on a piece of cardstock and keep that on hand as a template. when i’m knitting a new one and i feel like something is off i can hold it up to the template and see like “oh my gauge is too tight” or “it looked finished to me but if i cast off now it’ll actually be too short”

i leave the tails really long so i can use them to stitch the panels into the blanket as i finish them (hence the loose ends in the photo lmao). i know there are better more elegant solutions to blanket construction but i’m lazy and i don’t care and i think it looks plenty cute.

and that’s about it!! i like this project bc every time i knit a panel i get that little buzz of Finishing Something and the satisfaction of completion even tho the blanket itself has been growing really slowly, and it looks cute with mismatched colors/weights so i can just buy whatever nice/cool yarn i want in affordable quantities instead of having to stress about not being able to buy a bunch of matching yarn all at once.

Video

Fan Dorm Introduction Videos

AGAIN, PLEASE DON’T WATCH THE ABOVE VIDEO UNTIL I SAY SO IN THIS POST!! TUMBLR DESKTOP WON’T LET ME PUT IT ANYWHERE ELSE (;o;)

I said in a previous post that I would think about doing fan dorm introduction videos, and I think I’ve found all the apps I need to create them! (*^▽^*)

I had to come up w/ a slightly alternate beginning tho 😅 I still have the smoke and the mirror, but I couldn’t find anything to replicate the mirror shine effect that wouldn’t:

a) mess w/ the video quality

b) have the effect behind a subscription I wasn’t willing to pay for OTL

So, in the end I just went w/ a flickering image in a mirror 💁‍♀️It kiiind of fits the whole aesthetic of hidden dorms on campus tho??? Like lost footage??? Where after the main part of the film was over, there would be a glitch effect and suddenly BOOM there’s the hidden (possibly cursed) secret bonus reel!!!! 😮

(￣▽￣) Yeah... maybe that’s just me...

Anyway, I replicated the other parts of the intro videos (zooms, transitions, ending, etc.) best I could! I might make some slight changes in the future to make it look nicer (pls excuse the messy silhouettes; I’ll definitely make it neater in the actual videos), but overall, this is a pretty solid template! Ummm;;; I didn’t have a fan dorm of my own, so I had to work w/ what I had (￣▽￣;) Pls don’t take the video too seriously. I just wanted to have some fun while making it, so I added a special guest while I did so...

(・∀・) you can watch the video now

With this project, I’ll make each fan dorm a separate video post! (The only reason I combined all the dorms in my previous video was b/c sometimes I would have only 1 student in a dorm and it made me sad to leave them by themselves (´；Д；`))

What I’ll need for each submission is:

1. Dorm Name

2. Dorm Symbol/Insignia/Logo

3. Sprites of your Characters (full body would be nice!! but waist-up/bust shots of them would be cool too! just make sure to keep it consistent for each OC)

4. A Background you want your OCs to stand against

5. Basic Info for each character

Name/ Name in katakana/ Voice claim (if they have one)/ Grade/ Birthday/ Height/ Age

To make it easier, you can send me links to their profiles as long as all the info’s on there! Same goes for the character sprites!

6. Voice Clips of their Voice Claims (I can work off voice claim videos as long as you tell which line you want!; same thing goes for any other videos too! just send me a link!)

You don’t have to have a voice claim, btw! If it makes it less awkward, sending in lines that your OC might say that I could use as subtitles would be a fine alternative!

Also, please keep the clips about 5-8 seconds each! It can go a bit over, but no longer than half a minute!

7. Names of their Voice Claims

8. Translations for Voice Clips (I can help find translations if the video you send me doesn’t have any! If you don’t want to include subtitles, we can go with that too)

9. What blog you want to tagged under

PLEASE READ:

- You can send me everything via DM if you want to! However, it would be nice if you could send me any images through reblog, Discord (tar0#3887), or email (I’ll give you one of my addresses; just message me about it). I ran into some problems when saving sprites from the Tumblr app’s DM system back then that I kinda want to avoid now;;; If there’s no other way, tho, then private messaging is fine!

- Don’t chain reblog this post! I don’t want to make this post any longer than it needs to be, so if you’re sending anything to me via reblog just reblog the original.

- Submissions and asks would be a good way to send images/info too! (Dw, I won’t post your ask/submission; I’ll send a message to you as soon as I receive it) Just turn off anon/tell me your blog name so I know who you are!

- Again, please don’t be mad at me if I post other stuff while doing this :(；ﾞﾟ'ωﾟ'): I’ll try to work as efficiently as I can, but sometimes I need a break;;;;

- Submission deadline will be July 31! I’ll be posting the videos at different times, so I don’t flood the dash. I probably won’t get that many, tho, so maybe that won’t be a problem lol

- For any additional questions, too, DM me! (*^▽^*)

- Reblogs just to boost this are also appreciated!
