pt IV good omens but all i know is i watched three episodes on a stream with you all
Three hours being in a server with good omens fans in the wild *insert random emojis to sound like optimum clickbait youtuber except this ain't clickbait*
Okay I woke up. Before everything just WASHES out of my brain, I'm gonna describe whatever happened last night best as I can, because that's what I do.
Some of you were unable to attend the stream, and were sad. But don't worry I got you guys here's the rundown:
people joined the server. people were confused. i was afraid. i was assured that i should be, which was meant to comfort me.
people introduced themselves. someone said they had worked in a brothel as a bartender, which was cool, they said they had many stories. they did not elaborate for fear of scaring the newcomers. The newcomers, aka, me, were already scared, and it was not of the brothel stories.
I brought an emotional support orange with me. It looked uncomfortable. I thought it would be rotten. It was not, but we would not know that until later.
@thescholarlystrumpet entered fabulously, and started the stream.
i didn't realise the show had started for a good two minutes because there was a random voice over that was telling us about Earth's star sign (Libra) and somehow that didn't compute in my brain as being part of the episode. I thought we were checking audio.
It turned out, the episode had begun, and everyone was acting like this is a completely normal way for a show to start.
We time-jumped from the fall of man to modern day society so fast that I got whiplash.
There were a lot of orgasmic noises. I asked why. I was told in no uncertain terms that those were screams of labour. I'm sorry to everyone who has given birth ever.
There were three babies. I tried to keep track, it was hard. I thought the Antichrist won prizes for tropical fish. I was wrong.
I fell in love with Crowley and his hips and was very gay on the chat. This was heartily applauded.
I didn't realise an hour had passed when the episode ended, which it seemed was to be a common theme. I said nothing happened which everyone found funny for some reason.
I was very concerned about Armageddon. Everyone assured me that it would take place over the course of the season. I asked why we'd speedrun through millennia in five minutes but eight days took several episodes. I was a naive fool. Time is a social construct and this show cares not for social constructs.
They fucked up the mission. This was also to be a common theme.
I begged for a break and had to shake my head to try and get the brain rot out. I did not succeed.
The second episode commenced. The intro concerned me, because the cartoon Aziraphale looked pregnant or like a chicken. I asked if Crowley had impregnated him. He had not.
The pornography scene had to be replayed because I was so lost and had not relished it properly.
There was a lot of crying on the chat. Every few minutes someone would say a normal sentence in English and everyone would respond with crying emojis. Needless to say, I was concerned. This was also to be a common theme.
I asked why we were talking about random children. I was told it was The Them and they were the Antichrist's friends. I liked the hellhound.
I wanted to adopt the Antichrist, and grew more thirsty for Crowley every time he was a casual accessory to murder. I'm relying on this fandom not to use this as evidence with the cops. The chat was not reassuring, they said maybe.
I thirsted for Crowley more. This was also to be a common theme.
Aziraphale was very cute, I realised. That was nice. It was not nice when he had gay panic and said mean things to Crowley and they broke up. This was also to be a common theme.
I got so gay for Crowley that I ate the emotional support orange. It was gaseous. The chat was concerned, and everyone got excited every time oranges were mentioned after.
The third episode was a fucking roller coaster. Crowley and Aziraphale were your average high school couple but biblical for 6000 years.
Both were casual accessories to murder, and sometimes the cause of the murders, before going out for a date. Crowley got horny and he stopped listening every time Aziraphale ate. This was also to be a common theme.
The chat was keeping count of the husband breakups. This was not nice.
The Bentley was silver in many scenes, and people were forced to concede that they saw it. I was smug.
Crowley was sexy. She served gender, or as some people in the chat said, she served cunt. Her hairstyles got better and better. No one liked the 60s one. I did. I like everything she does. I love him.
Things happened. The fandom infected me. Someone mentioned how the book said Crowley felt lonely. I was near tears.
Crowley walked down the aisle for Aziraphale. We all were happy.
The book case, the thermos, the bandstand. I was broken.
Everyone said very emotional goodbyes.
I made a post on tumblr that was absolutely incomprehensible but accurately conveyed my love for Crowley. I fell asleep.
Same time next week, I believe.
I hope this was an adequate summary of the livestream for everyone, I am broken irreparably and if anyone mentions the bandstand I will have to start drinking and not stop till I get a happy ending. I cannot afford alcohol. I will ferment grapes myself if I have to.

In the mood for...
~*~
1. Hi! This is weirdly specific but I’m looking for modern AU fics set in China, written by Chinese authors preferably because I’m hoping to find the very accurate, realistic representations of China, with all those little “daily life” details that make the setting feel more real. I hope this makes sense, and thank you in advance for your help! ❤️
There's definitely Chinese diaspora collection(s). Give me a minute and I'll see if I can find some for #1 Like this one
I am not sure how many of these are set in China but it's a collection of non canon-set fic recs made by Chinese diaspora fans in two different Diaspora servers
this is another diaspora collection!
The Fifth Type of Non-Contact Force by Caixx (Not Rated, 83k, WangXian, Modern AU, High School, Slice of Life, Slow Burn, Fluff and Humor, Actually Somewhat Canon, Mutual Pining, Horny Teenagers, Angst with a Happy Ending, Non-Graphic Smut)
oh #1 even modern day cdrama are not all that accurate for daily life stuff. If you're feeling like branching out from wangxian fic to a cdrama with modern china daily life vibes that isn't 100% romance. Can try "Heart of Genius" it's a time/parallel world travel to the past.
~*~
2. Hello again!!! Thanks for the recs, they're so goooood! I recently read two fics that involve catfishing, how to fall in love with a catfish: a guide by wei wuxian (disaster rat) by bwyn, Yuisaki & we'll get him falling for a stranger (or a catfish) by sweetlolixoand I'm hooked! I'll definitely recommend them to everyone!
Ok so I'm craving for more catfish fics. Preferably wangxian but I'd love Sangcheng or Xicheng too! Thanks again ❤️ @dizzydandelionsandhyperhydrillas
~*~
3. ITMF: I'm very, very picky about modern aus but figured I'd give it a try. I want a modern au where they're already adults, it's angsty, and they're in character. My fave is when the angst kind of mirrors canonverse (ie WWX being "disowned," framed for something or disappearing, miscommunication, whatever so long as it isn't kind of just random melodrama) but I'll also just accept if the angst is in a breaking up -> getting back together/exes to lovers arc. Sorry if this is too picky!
These Things Stay the Same by notevenyou (E, 29k, WangXian, Modern AU, Kid Fic, Canon-Typical Violence, Minor Character DeathInjury, Natural Disasters, Angst with a Happy Ending, Hospitalization, Accidents) kinda

9. Hi! Hope you guys are okay <3
For your next itmf, I was hoping you could rec me something a bit more particular? Something that highlights Yi Ziyuan's abuse and makes wwx leave the Jiang sect for good. And then as time passes YZY tries to bring wwx down, or just regrets doing what she did. Can be modern, or not, I really don't mind. I just wanna see genius wwx standing up for himself and getting the love and appreciation he deserves!
Thank you again!! 🩷 @flexible-racoon
💖 Lessons relearned by Iamnotawriter (T, 44k, WangXian, LQR & WWX, Not Madam Yu Friendly, Time Travel Fix-It, Angst with a Happy Ending, Canon-Typical Violence, Implied/Referenced Child Abuse, Inventor WWX, It Gets Worse Before It Gets Better, No Golden Core Transfer, YZY Bashing) It's not the focus of the fic, but it does feature characters reacting to YZY's abusive treatment of WWX & has her try to bring him down after he leaves the sect, though that part happens late in the fic
Debts of a Child series by Hauntcats (M, 115k, WangXian, dark, YZY Bashing, Not Jiang Family Friendly, Angst and Feels, lots of anger, JC Bashing, not Jiang friendly, Angst with a Happy Ending, Content warning for icky spiders in later chapters.)

YZY gets caught between her hatred of WWX and knowing he's talented when LWJ comes to get him to bring him back to Gusu as a bride, forcing her to accept a single copper coin and handing over the rights to all of WWX's inventions and blowing her top when it comes to light WWX's inventions are actually incredible

13. I've had a craving for a D&D AU for a while, but haven't come across any of them naturally so far. I don't mind it being them playing D&D, but preferably it would be a D&D styled fantasy AU. I just want silly Wangxian in Faerun tbh. @littlemintrose

Childhood Crush
Chapter 9: Nickel
Killer x gn!reader
word count: 3.8k
a/n: a more chucky chapter, it wasn't long enough for me to justify splitting in two lmfao. also roller coaster of emotions frfr warning whiplash i guess next
Over the next few months, things went over smoothly. You were enjoying your life at sea and being able to explore all the different kinds of islands. Sometimes they were filled with the wildest things. You were always experimenting with new medicines and new cooking recipes. You wanted your brother and his crew to be at their best at all times. 
Eustass and you built that contraption for Dive, so she wasn’t chewing on the ship anymore. You even developed some fireproof targets for Heat to practice on as well. Anything to get that kinda stress off your brother’s shoulders. You knew being a captain wasn’t easy, so you figured you’d show some mercy and help him out when he needed it.
You started working on a new project, so you were leaving your lab less often. You worked on it behind curtains and didn’t let anyone see it. You worked on it primarily when no one was around, mostly because you didn’t want anyone to know about it. You were slightly embarrassed. Probably because you were so damn prideful.
It was your own combat machine. You’d also been working on trying to remobilize your arm - at least better than it was. There were still days where it just hung limply at your side or the pain in it was unbearable, but you were working on trying to make the most of it when you could use it.
You were tired of not being able to help. Whenever your brother and his crew would fight, you would stay in your lab to make sure you weren’t in the way or making your brother worried. It was really bothersome. You grew up pretty much fighting for him when things got rough - and now you couldn’t do anything. It sucked ass and made you feel terrible. 
You felt like a burden. Like some weakling from a fairytale that always needed saving and you hated it. You wanted to make sure no one had to worry about you. You wanted to be able to stand up for yourself and hold your own again. So, you trained. 
It was hard. It almost seemed impossible to be able to fight again. The pain you sometimes felt when fighting was immeasurable and you would find yourself crying; mostly out of frustration. You felt like you weren’t making any kind of progress. 
Today was one of those days. You were particularly frustrated, angry for letting yourself get caught. Angry for not being able to fight back. Angry for not healing back properly. You were just mad at the world. You cut your own time short, hiding the machine. No one really entered the lab without permission or rifled through it. They respected you, and your brother threatened them, that no one fucked with your things.
You sighed, running a hand through your hair. Even if you did regain the ability to fight…could you control yourself. Something slipped into your mind that you hadn’t thought about in a long time. The fact that you almost absolutely threw hands with Killer without a second thought the last time you fought. Your brother even commented on the look in your eye as you rounded on him.
Then you thought about all the times you did fight. The excitement. The bloodthirst. Maybe…maybe it was a good thing you couldn’t fight anymore.
You felt the ship stop, looking out of the porthole. Oh good, an island. You needed to do some restocking. You started to clean up your lab, having had a small tantrum earlier from your frustration. As you cleaned, your mind started spiraling once more. 
The big question of the day - did your brother regret bringing you? You felt like you couldn’t provide a whole lot. He seemed to be doing just fine on his own, so you don’t really know why he needed you here. Was it just pity? Sure, he said it was because he wanted you here. Or was it just to keep an eye on you? Did he feel obligated?
You heard your brother’s voice ring throughout the ship, dragging you out of your thoughts. You sighed, pushing those thoughts away. Thinking like that got you nowhere, after all. 
You headed out of the room, almost colliding with someone. It was that Kese guy. You hadn’t spoken a lot to him, mostly because your paths didn’t really cross too often. When they did, he always gave you a weird feeling that he hated you for some reason. “Sorry,” you mumbled, your words almost dying as they left when you saw the glower on his face that was directed at you.
Tension took over your body and you just quickly made your way in the opposite direction, just wanting to get off the ship for a little bit. Maybe there’d be some unique things on the island.
“Bigs!” You whipped around as you heard your brother’s voice. “Huh?” You spotted him, stopping. “Will you make cabbage rolls tonight?”
You blinked, a grin spreading across your face. “Now, why would I do that?” 
“Uh, because I want them?” 
“I don’t really wanna,” you whined, mostly just to mess with him.
“Fuck off. As your captain, I command you to make cabbage rolls for dinner.” When you and your brother got like this, the crew just let you be. They knew that you didn’t genuinely mean it. It was all playful bickering, not to mention if it went too far, Killer knew how to take care of it.
You laughed at him, watching his eye twitch. “Then it’s definitely a no for me.” Your smirk turned into a devious one, cackling at his expression. 
“Why the fuck not?”
“I don’t you, I don’t wanna!”
Eustass huffed, clearly irritated. “It’s been a while since you made any and I really want some.” He looked at you. “C’mon, Bigs…” You looked at him, mulling it over.
“Mmm, still no.”
“Fuck you. Pleeeease?”
You narrowed your eyes at him, throwing your hands up in exasperation. “Fucking fine! You win. I’ll make some.” You planned on making them from the get go, you just liked to tease him. “I just wanted to see you beg.” Another cackle escaped from you, your brother narrowing his eyes at you. 
You ran off the ship, Eustass throwing obscenities at you as you left. You just cackled, not really bothered by it. You immediately spotted a library and, being the person you were, ran to it. You headed inside, chatting up the librarian to learn more about the island that you were currently staying at. One never knows what information could be useful. 
After you purchased several books, you left the librarian, thanking them for their time. As you walked with your bags, you felt a pain shoot up your bad arm and you dropped everything, immediately hissing and rubbing it. You cursed softly, just staring at the books on the ground. Fuck, you hated being like this. Sometimes, it felt like your arm was deteriorating every day. That you wouldn’t be able to use it at all before long.
As your thoughts spiraled, you felt a hand on your shoulder, pulling you from your thoughts. Killer knelt down next to you, picking your bags up. “Oh, you don’t have t-”
“Arm again?”
You pursed your lips, immediately falling silent as you stared at the ground. You refused to look at him right now. You felt…so ashamed. Pathetic, useless. Just about every word in the book, you were currently calling yourself. 
“Y/n.” His voice brought you back to reality once more. “You probably strained yourself, don’t feel bad.”
Huh? He must’ve been able to read the confusion on your face. “I’ve seen you. In the lab.”
You still weren’t processing. “Yeah…that’s where I live…?” What was he getting at?
Killer sighed, shaking his head. You couldn’t see his face, but there was fondness in his voice. “Such a big brain, but sometimes can’t pick up on the smallest things.” The next came more of a mumble, “I’d know more than anyone.”
But, you were still stuck on the first part. “First of all, rude. I think. Second, huh?” 
“I’ve seen you in the lab. Training. With that machine of yours.” Your eyes widened and you cleared your throat to try to cover up your shock. 
“I’m not sure what-”
“I really wish you wouldn’t lie to me, y/n. You’re just as bad at it as your brother is.” You started sputtering as you tried to come up with some kind of retort, but just failed. 
“I saw your practice dummy-” Your hands flew up to his helmet where his mouth would be. “Shh!!!”
“What…were you hoping to accomplish?” 
You could feel your face turning red. “Shut up.” You looked over your shoulder, seeing Dive running in circles around Wire as they walked towards the market. “Come on,” you said, taking him by the hand and pulling him to the alleyway not far from the two of you.
He just followed, letting you have your little freakout.
“Okay, I’ve been trying to fight again, what about it?” You turned, looking at him.
“Why are you being so secretive?” 
“Wait, how did you even know?”
Neither of you seemed to be answering each other’s questions. Killer finally gave in with a sigh. “When I go on night patrols, even though most of the crewmates don’t do it on their patrols, I always swing by and peek in the lab to make sure you hadn’t overworked yourself and collapsed on the ground or something.” He shrugged. “I mostly do it when we hadn’t seen you in a while. I know how you get sometimes.”
You felt your cheeks heat up, but you did your best to ignore all that. Honestly, you didn’t realize how much he seemed to notice. You pushed all that to the side, finally sighing yourself. You leaned against the wall behind you, running a hand through your hair.
“I don’t know…I just…feel embarrassed, you know? I grew up looking after everyone and fighting for them. Then to suddenly lose that ability? To lose everything I lived for? To be unable to protect those I care about?” Your mind was spiraling again and you couldn’t stop the words spilling out of your mouth at this point.
“I see where the captain gets his pride…I know your brother would love to help,” Killer mused as he watched you talk, but you hardly processed he spoke as your word vomit kept pouring out.
“I just don’t know what to do? I can’t even fucking hold my own. What if someone attacks and someone ends up hurt because of me? I couldn’t live with myself. I just feel like some kind of burden and maybe Tungsten regrets bringing me along.” You covered your face with your hands as your voice grew shaky. You were going full breakdown right in front of Killer.
You hadn’t even done this in front of Eustass. No one had ever seen you like this before. You were usually composed and able to keep it together long enough for no one else to see you like this.
“Sometimes I just hole myself up in the lab because I think it’s better than bothering everyone. I’m just…I don’t know…I just want to feel useful again.”
You felt your hands being pulled away from your face, but you couldn’t bring yourself to look at the man before you. He wasn’t having it. “Look at me.” His voice was soft, patient. Slowly, your eyes trailed up to him only to immediately widen as you noticed that he had taken off his helmet so you could look him in the eyes. They were so beautiful, so intense. Breathtaking. He had one hand on the wall behind you and his helmet was tucked under the other arm. 
And he was…so fucking close.
“Now, listen.” You just nodded, unable to do…literally anything. Hell, you weren’t even sure if you were going to be able to breathe.
“You’re absolutely not a burden. What happened back then wasn’t your fault in the slightest. I know me saying it isn’t going to really change what you think, so I’ll keep saying it for as long as I need until it does.”
“But if I-” The look he gave you made the words die on your lips and sent a shiver down your spine.
“There’s no point in dwelling on the past. What happened, happened. We’re all here together and that’s what matters, okay? You are the reason all of us are here, got that?” You…never really thought of it like that. “It’s just as you said. You saved our asses how many times? Captain and I would be long dead and gone had it not been for you. Same with Heat and Wire. We’re here because of you.” You swallowed hard, your head spinning.
“Not to mention, there’s plenty of shit that you do on the ship and in general. Might I remind you who taught me how to cook? Who taught the four of us to fight? Who taught Wire to smith? Who patches the lot of us up when we’re stupid and get ourselves hurt both after fights and just being dumb? Who gave Heat the ability to fucking breathe fire? Which, honestly, still absolutely wild to us. The list goes on. You don’t need to fight.” You just stared at him like a deer in headlights. Your eyes as big as saucers. You opened your mouth to try to say something - anything but it just wasn’t coming. 
Killer shook his head. “And Captain doesn’t regret bringing you along either. He loves having you on the ship with him. I know he doesn’t say it, but he loves you a lot. You’re his ‘Bigs’, after all. I don’t think he would’ve kept the term of endearment if he didn’t care.” You felt tears welling in your eyes from the absolute whirlwind of emotions you were feeling right now.
“You’re the only person the captain will listen and adhere to. The rest of us just suggest things and he occasionally will listen to us, but you’re absolute. He might argue, yeah, but in the end, you’re the ultimate say in his eyes. He cares for you just as much as you care about him.” It was as if this man was seeing right through you and hitting each and every insecurity you had. Fuck, how did he know you so well? When the hell did this happen? What in the hell have you missed?
“Like I said, you don’t need to fight. All of us are more than happy to make sure nothing happens to you.” Honestly, this was the most you’ve heard Killer speak in one setting and you could listen to him talk all day. His voice was so smooth and calming. Shit, you needed to focus. He made that damn near impossible as he reached up, wiping your tears away. You had completely forgotten you were crying.
“None of us could hate you. I-” Killer stopped himself, shaking his head as he stood back on, placing his helmet back on. “Anyway. If you want, I’ll help you out. And I won’t tell the captain.”
To be honest, your head was still spinning and trying to process the validation monologue he had just delivered to you. This mental back and forth was absolutely exhausting and you wanted nothing more than to curl up and take a nap.
“Wait…what?” You blinked, sniffling and wiping at your eyes. You looked at him again, watching as he folded his arms across his chest. Fucker. You averted your gaze, knowing you wouldn’t be able to help stare. Unlike him, you didn’t have a helmet to help hide your eyes.
“I said, I’ll help you. Train you.” He nodded. 
You stared at him in disbelief. He just completely tore you apart, built you back up, and was now offering to train you? Well, retrain. “Why?”
“A dummy only takes you so far,” he said with a shrug. “Even one crafted by a genius.” You could hear the smug smile in his voice. He was just as bad as your brother sometimes.
You felt your face turn red. Fuck.
“Ugh, fine. You’re right.” 
“I know.”
He headed out of the alleyway with you in tow. “We’ll start tomorrow night.” You nodded, heading to the market with him. The both of you needed to restock the ship’s food as well as get things for tonight. 
For the first time in a while, you felt light. Like a weight had been lifted off your shoulders. You did wish for another weight to press into you, however. Quickly, you pushed those thoughts away. C’mon. Not with him right there. Have some class.
Then your mind drifted to the alleyway. His gaze, his arm on the wall, his chest. 
Fuck, so much for a childhood crush.
--
The rest of the night went fairly smoothly. Aside from absolutely having a breakdown in front of Killer, everything else was fine. He didn’t bring it up or treat you any differently than he normally does - which you were more than thankful for. You just wanted to forget the whole thing…
Well, at least the parts where you were absolutely embarrassing. You still couldn’t believe you did that. In front of him of all people.
You weren’t in your thoughts long as you rounded the corner, running into someone. “Oh, sorry,” you mumbled, stepping back. Man, you needed to pay attention. 
“Of fucking course it’s you.” Your head snapped up, seeing that new guy, Kese there. Well, he’d been here a few months at this point, but he was still the newest guy. Confusion contorted your face. Where was all this aggression coming from.
“Huh?” Was the only answer you could muster.
“‘Huh?’” He mocked, rolling his eyes with a scoff. “Do you do anything right?” That sent your mind reeling. What the hell was happening right now? You just stood there, blinking a few times as you tried to process what was going on.
“You just going to fucking stand there? Fuck, you’re so dense. I don’t know why they keep you around.”
That feeling of doubt was creeping back into your mind, but you tried to fight it off. You shook your head. “Hold on, what the fuck is your problem?” You glared at him.
“My problem is you.”
Not to puff your ego in any way, but you could not, for the life of yourself, think of why this guy wouldn’t like you. The both of you hardly fucking crossed paths. You spoke to him about one time and that was it. And it was introductions. He hardly even came into the lab to get patched up.
Actually, now that you thought about it, you don’t think he’d ever been in your lab before. You weren’t even sure if you’d seen him fight, but you weren’t ever out there when fighting happened, so you didn’t know. 
“Me?” Was all you managed to say, still trying to math what was going on.
“Yes, you. You and your self entitled attitude.” Self entitled? What? “You walk around here all high and mighty just because you’re related to the captain. You think you’re untouchable.” 
“Hold on. Wh-”
“The blatant disrespect you show our captain is astronomical. I’ve never seen anyone argue with anyone as much as you argue with that captain. And it’s just because you get to puff up your chest and feel better than everyone, isn’t it? Fuel your ego.”
You felt yourself deflating. “That’s not-”
“You’ve got some nerve to do it too. Especially considering all the captain does for you. Caters to your every need just because he feels obligated because you helped raise him.” He clicked his tongue and you flinched. “You don’t even really provide anything to the team either. Sure, you help cook but that’s only sometimes. You don’t help us fight, in fact, the captain is always preoccupied with making sure no harm comes to the ship just to make sure you’re not injured. He ends up getting himself hurt even more in the process because he can’t properly focus.”
“He doesn’t ha-”
“You don’t even fucking help us restock most of the time. You say you’re busy researching, but what the hell could you be researching that is so damn important that you can’t help out with something as small as restocking? Just admit it, you just hide out in there to coast by on the coattails of the captain.”
Your head was reeling and you were spiraling out of control. Every point of insecurity that Killer had eliminated came right back. He was hitting every point. 
“You’re so self entitled that it drives me up the wall. Drives everyone up the wall. But everyone just deals with it because they know what you’ve done for the big four.” He was relentless in his attack and not giving you a moment to breathe. You still had no idea why he was doing this. Tears stung your eyes as your breathing caught in your throat.
“Everyone just tolerates you because they’re used to you now. They put on an act to keep you complacent.” 
“Why are you doing this,” you whispered, your voice raw with emotion. You couldn’t even think of any kinds of retorts. It was as if the build up that Killer had done for you earlier today had been completely shattered. Now, you were wondering if it was even the truth. Maybe he was just trying to make you feel better because they were tired of your moping around. Your mood had been south as of late.
Fuck, maybe they were annoyed by you.
“Cause I’m tired of seeing the captain be held back and burdened by you. If you know what’s good for you, you’d stay out of the captain’s way. Hell, if I were you, I’d leave.” That was the final arrow that shot through your heart, you could no longer stand. You clutched your heart, feeling your world fall apart around you as you fell to the ground outside your lab. Were things really that bad? Were you really that bad? Was your brother that upset with you?
You wanted to go to your brother, to talk to him, to apologize, but you couldn’t bear to even go and see him. You didn’t want to bother him. You supposed that you did tend to forget he’s a big shot, very important captain. He wasn’t your snot nosed brother anymore. Same with the others.
With Kese’s words, your memories on the ship carried a darker tone as the venom of his words covered them with a dark veil, changing meanings between interactions. 
As you sat there with your world crumbling and silently crying, the man left you there without another word.

fuck it, night at the museum in disney world — here are the charas favorite attractions. don't ask me how everyone and the tablet got to orlando
larry — carousel of progress. vaguely, vaguely remembers going on the original as a kid at the 1965 world's fair and nicky calls him an Old
nicky — rock 'n' roller coaster or cosmic rewind. but he's one of those guests that gets annoyed if the ride song is "everybody wants to rule the world”
teddy — hall of presidents, OBVIOUSLY. does the spider-man pointing at the other theodore roosevelt animatronic
sacajawea — jungle cruise. gets REALLY into the S.E.A. lore, but besides that, she and teddy are always the ones laughing the loudest at the skipper's puns. you also best believe she's making everyone go on living with the land, too
ahkmenrah — loves haunted mansion for the macabre. murderous, power-hungry constance hatchaway cuts a little too close to home tho, so he prob prefers to ride tower of terror. also a cosmic rewind enjoyer, but if they get any ride song EXCEPT "september", grumbles about how they wasted a virtual queue reservation for the rest of the night
jedediah — big thunder mountain railroad. gets whiplash from staring at the goat during that one turn. goes tf off if anyone suggests him or octavius go on it's a small world
octavius — spaceship earth for the Roman Representation:tm:. appreciates the distinguished, old-school "edutainment" vibes (and the soothing voice of narrator dame Judi Dench)
attila — can't sit still on traditional omnimover rides, so he's really into fantasmic and the fireworks (absolutely loses it at the part with sorcerer mickey and the maleficent dragon). basically any show with flashy "magic" effects
joan of arc — rise of the resistance. 100% has no idea what the fuck is going on for most of the ride, but once she catches the general rebellion concept, she's ALL IN. prob tries to climb out of the ride vehicle to take a swipe at kylo ren
amelia — soarin', for the flight simulation vibes. tries to get the pilot role on smugglers run every time too, and takes it waaaaay too seriously, no matter how bad the team is. also forces everyone to wait in line for four hours for flight of passage
custer — splash mountain or country bear jamboree. loves all that old-timey, yeehaw shit. you Know why
kahmunrah — the great movie ride (cause i'm ignoring the existence of runaway railway lol). absolutely tries to take over the ride with ivan, napoleon, and al, plus recruiting the misc gangsters and western bandits/bank robbers. absolutely get their asses beat by the cast members
tilly — not a big fan of rides in general, but loves the beauty and the beast live show and goes to every princess meet and greet : )
lancelot — seven dwarves mine train, because they remind him of his jester and he likes to laugh at them (it also makes him feel like he's saving snow white at the end). if they go on pirates, he also tries to white knight for red and the ladies at the auction without realizing the scene has totally changed
laa — they stick him on the peoplemover and leave him there until the night is over lmao

Meddling Kids XI
WARNING! This work/series contains mentions of slut shaming, EDs, gore, implied torture, implied SA, SH, violence, and many other things that can trigger some viewers. I will also mention that this work does NOT intend to glorify, romanticize, normalize, or promote ANY of these behaviors or ideas. That is not who I am and that is not what I stand for. Please do not take that message away when you read this.
Guess who got her motivation back?
Gary lounged out on Jimmy’s bed, arms resting on either side of his head with his feet barely hanging off the bed. He sighed, turning his head to watch Jimmy, who was busy drawing something in his spare notebook.
“I’m bored,” he mentioned.
Jimmy glanced over. He thought for a moment. Jimmy had barely done anything fun in the past month or so. Sure, he’d been going on one too many misadventures. Those always wound up in some danger. Hell, they’d stumbled across an entire snuff film and what was a possible drug cartel. He still woke up in cold sweats from the intense nightmares of Alice Cuellar being brutally tortured. He felt like a criminal for just having seen it.
“Yeah, we should do something,” Jimmy replied.
“So where are we going?” Gary raised his scarred brow, rolling on his side.
“Carnival put your shoes on,” Jimmy replied as he closed his sketchbook and sat up to grab his sneakers.
“Oh, so a date? You’re so bold, Jimmy-boy,” Gary grinned as he double-knotted his doc martens.
“Shut up,” the ginger scoffed as he opened the door.
The two made their way out of the boys’ dormitory. It was already pretty late, but thanks to the start of daylight savings time, they could still see the sun. Jimmy grabbed the keys to his bike garage and opened it, choosing his fastest bike to drag out. He got on and ushered Gary to step on the back pegs before Jimmy pedaled down to the carnival.
Gary sighed, tilting his head upwards to breathe in the crisp spring air. He held Jimmy’s torso for support as they zipped through the streets. He really did need this. The last few weeks had weighed heavy on him, especially running into Daniel. The fucker acted like he didn’t even know him. What was his problem? Had Leo’s death fucked him over so bad he forgot Gary completely?
He just sighed and rested his face on Jimmy’s shoulder. He watched the gray-colored waves of Bullworth Bay sprawl across the sand, creating the illusion of a depressed beach.
That’s when Jimmy got the bright idea to speed up out of nowhere as they hit the drop to the carnival. Gary yelped as he squeezed Jimmy.
“What the fuck was that for? You almost gave me a heart attack, moron!” Gary yelled as he stepped off Jimmy’s bike pegs.
“Cause It was funny,” Jimmy grinned as he locked his bike up.
Gary rolled his eyes as he and Jimmy approached the gate, paying their admission tickets to walk in.
Of course, the first thing they did was go to the thriller rides. Those roller coasters whipped and spun around so fast and so hard that Jimmy wondered how they didn’t get whiplash. The carnival had many new additions this year regarding rides and attractions. It was a lot more fun than riding the same three rides every single time. So far, Gary and Jimmy had ridden the Twist-A-Whirl, the Freak Out, Ring Of Fire, the Yo-yo, and Silver Bullet. Surprisingly Gary had only gagged up once during their little adventure, much to Jimmy’s relief. He’d never forget how Gary puked on him on the roller coaster last October. Yuck.
“Can we do something else now?” Gary asked as they walked around aimlessly.
“Wanna play a carnival game?” Jimmy asked.
“Sure, I bet I can win more prizes,” Gary smirked, running off to the nearest game booth he saw.
Jimmy shook his head, bounding after his scraggly friend to go kick his ass in some silly carnival games.
They went through a few silly games like ring tosses, darts, pellet rifles, the dunk game, and the strength test.
Their final game was going to be a little water gun game. So far, they’d been evenly matched in price winning. Jimmy won two little keychains, and Gary scored a dumb squeaky horn purely meant to annoy everyone within their vicinity, along with a giant snake stuffed animal.
They sat, paying their money as other people sat to also play a round. Gary licked his lips and teeth, hoping to break their tie and give Jimmy some embarrassing gift. Unfortunately, Jimmy also had the same mindset ahead of him.
As soon as the bell rang, they lined their water guns and started to fill the tank to raise the hung stuffed animals. Gary’s hands trembled, sending his aim off. Just like that, the water cut off, and Jimmy won.
“Congrats, kid! Pick your prize!” The elderly carny smiled.
“Yeah, I’ll take that My Little Pony stuffed animal,” Jimmy shrugged.
The carny gave an odd look but used one of his hooks to grab the pony off the rack and handed it to Jimmy. “Have fun, kid.”
Jimmy nodded and turned to Gary, handing him the plush. He always found those ponies creepy.
“Seriously?” Gary grimaced.
“Take it or leave it,” Jimmy rolled his eyes.
“Whatever, moron, how about the Ferris wheel?” Gary asked, tucking the bedazzled pony under his arm.
Jimmy shrugged, so Gary could only take it as a yes. The pair walked to the slow-moving attraction and coughed up the cash required before stepping into a capsule. They sat adjacent, looking at the horizon as the ride began to move.
“I hope we don’t get stuck at the top,” Jimmy looked down.
“Why? Scared of heights, James?” Gary teased.
“Shut up.”
Gary moved closer, now right beside Jimmy. He quickly began to nudge and push him. Jimmy glanced over,
“What are you poking me for? You’re rocking the cart dickwad!” Jimmy said, slapping Gary’s arms away.
“So what?” The scar-faced boy laughed.
Their miniature slap fight continued, and small chuckles and playful insults were exchanged.
A sudden impulse took over, and Gary grabbed his face and went in for a kiss.
Now Gary had never kissed anyone before, not even his own mother. He hated almost all types of physical affection, yet Gary chose to go in for a kiss.
Jimmy flinched in surprise but quickly caught on and pulled Gary in. The kiss was brief, but it held passion. More passion than it should’ve. So when Gary realized what he was doing, he pulled himself off of Jimmy and sat at a distance.
“Wow,” was Jimmy’s only response.
He hadn’t even realized they were at the apex of the wheel. The sun was now fully set. The whimsical lights danced and provided a colorful display around them. Gary looked away, taking a moment to process his actions and catch his breath. He felt like he was living in a teenage dream or nightmare.
Not another was exchanged between them when the ride descended. What was there to talk about? Gary wanted to punch himself. He was letting this new kid get too close. They’d made a friendship over the trauma they went through in the past three months. Dr. Bambillo would flip his shit if he knew.
They walked side by side, exchanging silent glances over the loud whirring of rides and screams of people.
“Hey Jimmy! Over here!” A voice called.
Gary looked over his shoulder.
It was Donald Anderson dressed up like the circus puked on him. He was standing at the front of an attraction with the word ‘Headspin’ written above it. Purple and red lights flickered sporadically, making it appear like a sick fever dream.
“Wanna try our new haunted house? The nerds and theatre kids are all working on it!” He explained in a psyched-up manner.
“Sure, don’t see why not,” Jimmy shrugged, walking through with Gary behind him.
Most of the scares weren’t really eventful. If anything, Jimmy just said hello, since most of them were their peers. Gary didn’t take much interest in the attraction either. He did hold his stuffed pony a few times, though.
They turned down a darker hall that led them to a hall of mirrors. Gary and Jimmy shuffled around, occasionally bumping into their reflections and swearing.
Gary looked over his shoulder, catching movement in the darkness of his peripheral.
“What was that?” He asked out loud.
“What was what?” Jimmy replied.
“I saw something.”
“Yourself?”
“No, someone else.”
Gary whipped around, the color draining from his face. Behind Gary was a tall man dressed in a sick imitation of John Wayne Gacy’s Pogo the Clown. The clown held a bat wrapped in barbed wire and covered in what Gary hoped was fake blood.
Jimmy didn‘t even think twice before grabbing Gary and running in the opposite direction. They could hear the heavy footsteps tailing them with the most bone-chilling laughter echoing down the hall of mirrors.
They escaped the mirror hall and dodged behind a doorway into another room. Gary held his hand over his mouth to calm his breathing. He looked over to Jimmy, whose hands clutched the splintered rotten wood of the wall. Gary didn’t think he was capable of expressing that amount of terror.
His head snapped over, hearing the slight pang of metal on metal. Gary’s gut dropped, watching as another clown in the likeness of Pennywise approached with a machete.
“FUCKING GO, MORON!” He yelled, shoving jimmy out of the doorway.
They screamed, begging for help as they dodged obstructions in their path and dove through the cluttered, run-down rooms of the house. Gary kicked a foldable table out of his way, finding furniture stacked against an exit door.
“Come and help me, moron!” Gary demanded as Jimmy quickly came to aid him in deconstructing the barricade.
Quickly, they managed to shove the door open and run out, escaping to the bright area of the carnival. Gary shuddered as he tailed Jimmy, heart beating out of his chest. That haunted house was no joke.
Jimmy scanned the area, finding Donald once more. He walked up to the nerd and snatched him by his collar, holding him in a vice grip.
“What the hell, man? You need to get those clown guys in check!” He yelled.
Donald blinked, dumbfounded.
“Jimmy, we don’t have clowns.”

“reddit moment” i say, knowing full well that i am looking at an ifunny screenshot of a tumblr post with a screenshot of a facebook post which contains a screenshot of a shitty instagram meme account. the roller coaster i am on then flies off the rails, and moments before i hit the ground peter griffin jumps in front of it and kills himself. his immense stomach stops the whiplash from killing me. then the private army of elementary school mercenaries (with armored vehicles and m16’s) pulls up and i know i gotta activate my stand so i do and it gives them acid crayons that ruin all their drawings. next thing i know truck-kun smashes into me with the full force of an orc’s dick and i am isekai’d to a fantasy world where the magic system relies on cringe. naturally i sing the fnaf song while doing the floss and become god. i then decide to make earth 2. i shit out a male, female, and a non-binary. i tell them to stay the fuck away from apples (as a prank) and when they touch the apples i (joking practically) burn them to death. i hide the bodies in a black hole so space police jesus doesn’t give me a fine. i become bored of my godliness and isekai myself back to the real world. i wake up from a coma i’d been in for 119 years [not aging ofc] and immediately masturbate. i decide to not outlive my one remaining enemy and push him off the hospital roof {he was visiting me} and before he hits the ground i, through sheer force of will, stop my organs from functioning. i wake up in hell for all the torture i did to iranian children |bullshit sin| and i, like any other normal person, rape the devil and kick him out. i don my cap and bells which had been stolen from me by demons and send all the damned to heaven. except for my enemies, whom toil day and night in the ‘ideas-for-this-story’ mines for eternity. christian god catches wind of this and is obviously mad. i also rape him and kick him out. “fuck,” i say, “i’m god again.” i decide to appoint rick may as god because he can rocket jump <very cool> and while i’m smoking crack in heaven i spot elon musk. apparently he was in hell but i, in my foolish hubris, had brought him to heaven. i raped him and kicked him out. bored yet again i reincarnate as an orangutan and become the chieftain of all the apes. i lead the siege against humanity and within the hour earth is ours. apparently someone went on a 200-year space trip a few months back? idk, don’t care. me and my monkey pals fuck around (literally) and discover the key to immortality. but because i’m sick and tired of becoming god i cease to exist until, 500 million years later, alien archeologists get one fact wrong about me. i come back and destroy their entire civilization. i piss out a black hole and destroy everything that has ever been. content with myself, i become eaten by the black hole and discover myself on a roller coaster. i get out my phone and open ifunny.
the end

Done with build!
*deep breath*
Banjou and Ryuuga were my all time favorites. I just love their character and how they were written and how sometimes they share the same braincell and how ridiculous they get sometimes. They've lost a lot but continue to stand strong and be pillars of strength for others, i really really love them.
Sentos struggles and how he was portrayed throughout the show was a roller coaster of feelings. What he went through felt so relatable even tho i personally haven't experience the shit he went through. Whiplash and fucking hurt is what I get everytime this scientist was on screen.
Every time Misora spoke you feel how she is feeling like for real whenever her voice is shaking or she's crying I'm right along with her. It's like I easily fell into her shoes ever time she's on screen cause she says exactly what I want to say to sento and the gang. Ahhhhh kinda ironic really, cause like the first couple of episodes i  jokingly dub Sento's group the crying squad because they aren't shy when it comes to shedding tears but boy oh boy oh boy. You can't blame them really and it's quiet understable why they did cry and hey they made me part of that squad lol.
Gentoku, you bastard how dare you make me like you and your stupid shirts, man slowly realizing the wrongs you've done while under the influence of pandora drug and then everything you've fought for gone- big big oof. Dude be riding the guilt train till the end of the line and out of track (he's probably with Sento on that guilt train).
This post is fcking messy. I don't wanna go over episodes, they had their high points, lots of scheming and manipulation going around and everyone is just out there out manipulating the others in their manipulating that if I think deeply about it my heads going to spin, some were not at their best but you really don't notice it much since the series ties it up together well but I wanna say Episode  21 and 47 of build broke my heart. These two episodes were amazing. 21 was hard to watch and plenty of times i had to pause it because I'm just going wtf wtf out loud as i process the scenes. I was ugly crying muttering 'no' throughout 47 while my 10 yr old sister (who i watch kr with) kept laughing at me for crying over a kids show. Hah Build might be the kamen rider show that made me cry a lot. It's fucking sad that they're friends don't remember them but atleast sento and ryuuga has each other because i wouldn't know what to do if sento was left alone to remember their world, that dude is not meant to be left by himself.
*clears throat* In short, Build was an amazing show, well written - they gave such a wonderful way to showcase the dark parts of the series while trying to keep hope alive and the comedic portions were gold-, wonderful colorful characters and dynamics, bastard villain you love to hate whose taste in fashion you do love and amazing overall suit design throughout the series.
Bleh, cannot write a review to save my life, just a bunch of word vomit but ahhg just letting people know I love Build.

poverty, by america is such a profoundly frustrating book and while I can recognize that at least a good half of that is how much I'm near-explicitly excluded from the target audience, on the whole it's just like. are you fucking kidding me.
(context for the camel-back-breaking straws here: the chapter I've been most recently reading going on a seemingly-oblivious whiplash roller coaster through "sector organizing is currently a better plan than traditional one-workplace-at-a-time unionizing because scale & collective solutions vs. individualism," and "we need to provide increased entry access to homeownership so people can start to build wealth," and "if a family's financial livelihood depends on their house's value it's understandable why they'd oppose antipoverty efforts that would result in the decrease of property costs/values," and "we* should all be voting with our wallets by doing our own research into companies' business practices and avoiding shopping with or investing in those that exploit their labor force".....
dude. are you not seeing the minor fucking contradictions here. how about instead of encouraging people to spend their money ~virtuously, you tell them point blank to counter-agitate against NIMBY shit in their neighborhoods because centralizing wealth in the housing supply is one of the big structural feedback loops causing problems in the first place.
and it's not like a substantial portion of the rest of the book isn't incisive and legit in what it talks about, either? but jfc, you can't write a book that makes it very clear the kind of middle-to-upper-middle-class audience it's talking to, leading with "hey the way we benefit from exploitation of the poor is very real and a part of the overall social landscape that needs to change too," and then following up with. as a series of individuals, you should all be re-evaluating what stocks you invest in. just, no.)

God... This damn episode giving me fucking whiplash...
What a roller-coaster...
There's so much happening we even get to see significant developments in 3 of the couples of the series!
Let's start with the two with less screen time.
My babies Waan and Tul. I love them so much! Waan isso much in the denial that his brain is refusing to connect the dots. Tul is not even that careful... he is basically wearing a neon sign at this point! Waan's life is already complicated enough, give him some rest!
Then we have Prince and Bee, they are the ones that confuses me the most. I love them, but they are a mess! I don't even know what the hell is going on with them most of the time... Bless them, though!
And now we have THEM!
Win and Team!
They are not even try to hide anymore, at least at uni... With their parents though... It's a whole different situation!
Families are whole complicated, but damn...
Win is trying his best to fix his family, but with that father it's one hell of a quest. He is trying so damn hard though... It is heartbreaking!
And even though Team relationship with his parents seems way better, he doesn't feel very comfortable in showing himself truly to them.
And his trauma surely doesn't help...
I'm "happy" we'll finally get to explore that part of him and possibly resolve it (at least partially)!
I'm so impatient for next episode to air! 👀

Hi. 
So, I came down with a nasty fever yesterday evening (not covid luckily) and that means that the second part to ‘and just for tonight’, probably will take me longer to finish than I hoped it would. 🤒 So I thought I would post a small snippet from the part I have already written here. Sooo, yes that’s all.. Just gonna go back to being sick now 🥺😭
Snippet after the cut. Warnings: None. (Except Wilhelm being high on Simon but when isn’t he)
...He’s almost reached Forrest Ridge now, the dark silhouette of the palace looming forlornly in front of him. Most of his classmates are still enjoying the party back in the main building of the school. After the choir had presented the new version of the school song, the festivity had taken up right where it had been left off in full force. But Wilhelm just needs some peace and quiet now to process what just really happened.
God, what an evening. He’s pretty sure he’s going to experience some sort of emotional whiplash from this roller coaster that was tonight. He wonders how Boris will react once he tells him about this next Tuesday. 
The high he has been on since Simon kissed him he kissed him he really did- still hasn’t lessened in the slightest. If anything, the giddy feelings of pure joy and elation bubbling inside of him like a warm spring are intensifying the closer he gets to his room.
So much so, that when he reaches the last turn to the hallway his room is situated in, he has to bite his lip to keep the freaking giggles inside of his chest and not all over the place. But, try as he might, the corners of his mouth still manage to stretch themselves so far Wille fears that his cheeks will be sore for the next hundred years. 
Once he’s inside of his room, he closes the door behind him. He stands there, one hand gripping the door handle and the other still pressing against the wood from shutting it close seconds ago. 
And it’s then, in the safety of his room, that he breathes fully again for what feels like decades of only breathing through a layer of smog. The grin on his face widens impossibly, it’s bordering on uncomfortable now but shit. He’s just so fucking happy, so happy so so happy, can’t remember the last time – it’s been so long- ...
---
Here you can read the first part. (Warning: Explicit Sexual Content)

I do think the hellsing fanbase is friendly including the ones who are fans of millenium and do not justify their actions. At least the characters including millenium from that world are not used for gacha doujin soft games since author himself is careful not to put them in lighter and softer games that downplay their moral reprehensible actions they have done in canon. He is lucky he isn't working for like say Konami who disrespected pyramid head's creator putting his character in crossovers.
This is a fair point. I think they're all wacky and zany characters that just do some really fucked up shit. It's the whiplash of seeing an adorable catboy in a Hitler youth get up or a cute marksman lady with a musket that has a swastika necklace and acts all kawaii. That's just mental to me and Hellsing as a piece of media is like a fun roller coaster ride of action and a bouncy plot that goes everywhere and anywhere. In other words, why must this be so complicated? Khouta Hirano himself literally just made this up for fun while also being a little serious. Plus I'm glad most of the visible Millennium character accounts denounce the ideology and say that the characters they rp as or whatever are evil villains.
