A few of Far Cry 5’s characters’ former names (according to the files)
Did you know that some characters used to have different names? Here’s what I found:
Adelaide Drubman - Penny Johnson (I’m not sure; it’s unclear)
Casey Fixman - Casey Seagal or Casey Storm
Chad Wolanski - Chad Gardetto
Faith Seed - Selena Seed
George Wilson - George Beel
Guy Marvel - Guy Martel (headcanon: it’s still his name but he thought Marvel was a cooler name for a movie director)
Hurk Drubman Senior - Wayne Senior
Joseph Seed - Daniel Seed
Merle Briggs - Merle Clinton
Wilhelmina Mable - Wilhelmina Maybelline
Tammy Barnes - Tammy Palmer (was she supposed to be Eli’s wife? Maybe!)
Tracey Lader - Traci West
Virgil Minkler - Virgil Knutsen
Wendell Redler - Wendell Darrah
Xander Flynn - Bob Johnson (again, like for Adelaide, not sure)
Also, I’ve said this before but Deputy Pratt’s first name is actually Stacy and not Staci. In the files, it’s only not spelled Stacy once, in the end credits... which is also, unfortunately, the only time players had a chance to see it written.
According to the files, Larry Parker’s first name is Laurence, the man we meet near Arcade machines is Morris Aubrey, and the fisherman is Coyote Nelson… but his description in the unreleased in-game encyclopedia also implies he died, so that might be inaccurate.
Below are the names of other Hope County residents (and where they live(d) and/or work(ed)) found in the deleted in-game encyclopedia:
Daniel Holmes — Holmes Residence
Doug and Debbie Hadler — Gardenview Orchards, Ciderworks, and Packing Facility
Rae-Rae Bouthillier — Rae-Rae's Pumpkin Farm
Niesha Howard — Howard Cabin
Emmet Reaves (in the late 1800s) — Copperhead Rail Yard & Prosperity
Will Boyd (from Far Cry: Absolution; his full name is William) — Boyd Residence
Les Doverspike — Doverspike Compound
Mike and Deb Harris — Harris Residence
Wolfgang Dodd — Dodd’s Dumps
Colin Dodd (Nadine Abercrombie’s grandfather) — Dodd Residence
Joe Roberts — Roberts Cabin
Dr. Kim Patterson — Hope County Clinic
Bobby Budell (in 1946) — Flatiron Stockyards
Doug Fillmore — Fillmore Residence
Orville Fall (found gold in 1865) — Catamount Mines
Mike and Chandra Dunagan — Sunrise Farm
The Redler family (Wendell’s) — Red’s Farm Supply
Andrew and Frances Woodson — Woodson Pig Farm
Don Sawyer — Sawyer Residence
Kay Wheeler — Kay-Nine Kennels
Jules Adams (and an unnamed husband) — Adams Ranch
Jerry Miller (and his family) — Miller Residence
Rick Elliot (his full name is Richard according to a message left by Eli) — Elliot Residence
Jay Loresca — Loresca Residence
"Lonely Frank" — Frank’s Cabin
Dicky Dansky — Dansky Cabin
Roy Tanami — Tanami Residence
Mr. Vasquez — Vasquez Residence
Mr. McDevitt — Misty River Gas
Darby McCoy — McCoy Cabin
Dr. Phil Barlow — Barlow Residence

Jasmine Chan — Chan Residence
Jerrod Wilson (in the 1800s) — Throne of Mercy Church
Frankie Sinclair — Sinclair Residence
Lydia (in 1912) — Lydia’s Cave
Dwight Feeney (the chemist who worked with Eden’s Gate and dies in the mission “Sins of the Father”) — Feeney Residence
Lorna Rawlings — Lorna’s Truck Stop
Edward O'Hara — O’Hara’s Haunted House
Kanti Jones — Jones Residence
Coyote Nelson — Nelson Residence
Holly Pepper (and her girlfriend Charlie) — Pepper Residence
Nolan Pettis — Nolan’s Fly Shop
Bob and Penny Johnson — Johnson Residence
Melvin Adams Abercrombie — Abercrombie Residence

Pen doodles from yesterday and then digital for today
Katale and Rudyard but as little crime babies. Since he's known her for a while and just thought she looked like a little street thug despite being higher ranking than him in the crime organization at first, the cat-ear hairstyle was just A Thing for her. And it spawned the nickname he would use in private of "Kitty" and even when she grows her hair out and he grays even more he still calls her Kitty in private. They're literally just bffs who do crime and what more can you want of them??
#my characters#time for more lore in the tags#so it was brought to my attention that the funniest thing possible is to give them a few bases with my favorite meme#the color theory meme where everything is just too reminiscent of a bloody massacre#because honestly katale would be like hey rud hey i have the FUNNIEST idea ever look at this carpet pattern#and he looks at the very horrific carpet and just says go on#like keep going this is funny and very much the funniest thing we can do as crime lords keep going#and they do actually have that kind of decor in one of the nicer buildings#and the poor little agent who is on a mission to kill them walks in like HOLY CRAP ITS A MASSAC-- thats the carpet that is JUST the carpet#and has to take a minute to file that information away before proceeding#then stuff happens and the two crime bosses are like oh yeah that agent is our son now we adopted him its fine he can be here#also ruds sense of humor is super dry and he doesnt really SHOW the fact hes amused much but thats what makes kitty so happy when he jokes#he sounds very serious but hes enjoying himself and thats wonderful#like those weather reporters who see an off the wall temp and go OH YEAH EVERYONES DEAD IN THAT CITY#or the other weather man video where only some of the temps are off the wall so hes like#oh yeah this seems to be the safe area but if you go up north a bit its basically melted - there isnt anything to loot there dont bother#that is his sense of humor. hes super casual and acts like he didnt just say the funniest thing on the planet

thinking so so hard about LaughingStock and how that'd go down. disastrously, probably
#and ill talk about it at Length in the tags until tumblr cuts me off like a rowdy drunk after last call#please keep in mind this is all in my Brain and relationship dynamics etc are all technically speculation. anyway#so while franklydear is your more classic 'oh no im in love with him! / aw shucks im in love with him<3'#laughingstock is 'feelings what feelings / oh shit oh fuck this is bad'#to Me.#in my mind howdy is completely oblivious to his emotions#he's out here like 'gotta get the store impressively neat & shiny for barnaby! and everyone else' without blinking an eye#he starts assembling barnaby and wally's dogs slower an slower so that barnaby has to hang around a smidge longer than usual#he's out here giggling at barnaby's jokes while sweeping Hours or Days after the joke was told like a lovesick idiot#all while being like Ah Yes Barnaby My Dear Friend. My Platonic Buddy Whose Jokes I Laugh At A Little Too Hard. Platonically.#meanwhile barnaby Realizes his own feels. has a minor crisis. goes through the 12 stages of grief and absolutely panics#he's like 'ok just gotta play it cool. normal. dont be weird. he'll fall for your natural charm in no time'#'ill hold all of my feelings right here until i die or howdy reciprocates. i just cant tell anyone about this.'#'....hey wally you can keep a secret right'#and rizzes it up yk. rolls a nat 20 on charisma every time without howdy even realizing it. ig barns rolled for stealth too#and from barnabys pov its going great!#howdy is flirting back! hes showing all the signs! when eddie views their interactions he comes to barnaby later and is like A+ gay as fuck#so barnaby is a soft pining mess and howdy is Absurdly Oblivious despite being a clever & observant guy#so im imagining (will freely admit that this Train of Thought is slightly inspired by the latest chapter of Stamps by Indigopoptart)#that eventually barnaby is Confident in their budding relationship ok. hes ready to ask howdy out.#everyone who Knows (wally & eddie) are like Go For It He Clearly Loves You#and when barnaby tells howdy. howdys like 'ohhhh geez um im really flattered 🥺 but i dont feel the same 😔😭'#cue barnaby turning into the 'never again' meme while trying to laugh it off and pretend like he didnt just have his heart mr starked#so he goes home to smoke his pipe and cry and howdy goes about his day feeling Strange#why cant he stop thinking about that confession. what are these emotions. i mean its not as if hes in love with Ohhhhhh No. Oh No.#so howdy has his 'holy shit! im in love with barnaby! (lovestruck. swooning) ....Holy Shit I Rejected Barnaby (horrified. nauseous)' moment#cue howdy expecting barnaby to come by in the morning as per Routine so they can talk. he Doesnt. cue howdy stressing the fuck out over it#meanwhile wally sally (eddie sent her in his place. hes too busy) and barnaby are having a girls day (eating ice cream and watchin romcoms)#eventually barnaby hears that howdy has been Dropping The Ball and cant not check on him. cue emotional heart-2-heart outside the bodega#this is all very specific but its in my brain. these scenarious lull me to sleep every night lately

Okay so I've never really joined the whole "small talk" argument that's been happening increasingly over the last years because I tend to just not agree with anyone I see discuss it. Like no I dont think people who use it are evil or making things hard on purpose, I also dont think it makes them lesser, ... I Also dont think that someone who refuses to use it / cant use it is automatically worse and will not make friends.
Importantly i also dont think everyone can learn it. I should know because I spent multiple years with professionals trying to teach me how to have a conversation At All and I still am actually nowhere near what would be expected at my age group. (Most recent reports usually go something like "makes slight improvements in having a two sided conversation" - because I can say nothing, or I can ramble on and then not react to your answer. The rest? Struggle time, to this day, in every aspect) No matter how many intricate guides you write, if I fail at the basic concept of a conversational structure very frequently then I will not succeed at small talk either. And additionally I also genuinely can not tell what might be too personal for this other person.
A lot of these people who get upset when people say "I cant do small talk because I'm autistic and I cant learn it, I tried and failed" and go "of course you can!", just sort of like. Ignore that a lot of the developmental delay in conversation and / or (nonverbal) language never closes up for many of us, the way a lot of us generally never reach the developmental level of our peers (in some areas). and it's not because we have not seen enough complex flow charts or not practiced enough. when so many of us literally spend so much additional time of our youth sitting in front of whiteboards and workbooks and such, being explained over and over how to talk to someone at all. I am 22 and after years of explicit teaching I still have to ask for verbal confirmation and explanation of any nonverbal cues that I think were used by my conversational partner, but do not know what they mean. Which is pretty much all of them. And I probably miss a lot of them existing at all. You can scream "just practice until you can recognize the other persons little cues on if they want to deepen or end this" until you turn blue but it will not actually make me accomplish it if the fucking people who've been spending their whole life teaching it didnt make me figure it out. On account of, you know, the developmental delay.
Sure some people can learn! That's why they try to teach us after all! Cause it has been successful! But generally stop with this shit of "everyone can learn this you're just choosing not to!"
I will never be rude to someone for engaging in small talk, I will obviously fail at their attempts to engage me in some, which usually makes them stop trying (thank god). But I will not tolerate others talking shit about it that is uncalled for (implying malice from every user, making fun of people who seem to crave it, ...).
But I also do not care to learn it anymore at this point? It's no goal of mine. I have made multiple friends, most non autistic, without ever using small talk. Including in adulthood. We simply skipped that stage. We went from "hi!" "Hi!" Immediately to "heres when it went wrong in my life (humorous but still often dark / personal). Also these are my political opinions. Sure I want to hear about the girl you dated for years in excruciating detail. Let me retell you the plot of this old indie movie you will never watch for 20 minutes and why I enjoy it. Let's go to a concert together after talking slightly in depth like this twice". Is this the way that you creep everyone out in everyone's friendship acquisition theory I've been seeing? Sure! It's been working perfectly fine, enough of the times for me, though.
Will this work in like a work environment or something? Most likely not, which is why I generally plan to keep to myself. Does this mean I still confuse every stranger who approaches me trying to small talk? Sure. that's why I'm still fucking disabled. But I have created meaningful relationships as an adult without small talk. I have genuinely tried learning in many ways and failed. And I'm done apologizing for that, either you take me with my inability to small talk or you wont.

Due to a glitch in Tumblr (thank you very much, for fuck's sakes), the question was posted as a private message, can't return it. but thanks to @mazal22 , for whom I wrote the answer and was able to copy my notes. Bless your heart 🙏🙏🙏
Question: "I came up with a brilliant idea.. how about headcanons with bachelors and bachelorettes with a farmer who has a young brother/sister? That they look after him and they're just cute? Wild? Have some magic? I honestly don't know but think this just cute"
I decided to write in a new format, but still not sure. Because I couldn't decide whether to write short stories, a regular headcanon, or as a shitpost. In the end, everything was mixed together like in a salad. But anyway, I hope you like it)))
Be warned, this post is very long... Like wow
SDV and SVE bachelors:
Alex:
Oh, a new fan of the future athlete? Does they want an autograph or something?
Mmm? Raise that bench? Sure, not a problem! Now that heavy stump? With ease! Want to see what heavy things I can lift next? Something else? Lewis car? Hah, no probl-
"Alex, put my vehicle down!"
Alex is ok with the kid running around.
He notes to himself that it is quite brave and responsible of the Farmer's side to take care of the younger sibling and run the farm at the same time.
Sometimes he treats the child with ice cream from the kiosk in the summer.
Falls into a stupor if the child says that they believes in him that he will become a sports star.
...
If one of the tourists offends this kid, he will deal with Alex too, and not just with the angry Farmer.
Sam:
Sam became like a big brother to the Farmer's sibling.
He will definitely introduce them to Vincent so that they befriend and play together.
Buys them ice cream and gives them a ride on his skateboard.
Sometimes rolls them on his shoulders if they ask.
Vincent gets a little jealous and now Sam has two kids on his shoulders
It's not hard to guess that they all fell to the ground.
Sam doesn't mind watching the kids if the Farmer is too busy.
Best brother material!
Elliott:
Waking up in the morning, Elliott decided to take a walk and get some fresh air. He did not look out the window, knowing that the weather would be fine today. But in vain.
Around his house is a wall of sand.
"Your realm will soon fall before my sand army. Surrender, king of the elves."
Elf? Who is this child?
Ah, that's Farmer's sibling.
Well, Elliott understands a little about theatrical art, why not play along with the kid.
He always plays along with the siblings when they play games like this. The little one got talent, you could send them to art school, Farmer!
Allows them to braid his hair if the child asks. Just please don't pull his hair too hard!
Elliott is like a big thoroughbred noble dog: he will endure all the antics of children and will never bark.
Shane:
Despite his rudeness to the Farmer at the first meeting, he is neutral towards their sibling.
The chaotic younger sibling of the chaotic Farmer... Shane isn't sure if it's worth introducing them to Jas.
But children are children, so Jas and Farmer's sibling managed to become friends anyway.
Shane doesn't mind.
He and Farmer also began to communicate more, as two singe parents.
Although at the same time, Shane claims that he is a useless godfather and guardian.
"Uncle Shane is lying, Mr./Ms. Farmer."
"Shush, Jas."
Both Shane and Farmer now need to make sure the two kids don't get into trouble together.
Sebastian:
Acts like an awkward uncle.
How to communicate with children?
...
Do you like frogs?
Sebastian will show them his little terrarium, and will be happy if Farmer's sibling is excited about the amphibians.
He will also show his exclusive collection of comics.
Sebby, of course, is constantly on social networks, but he did not expect the child Naruto running around him.
They made Sebastian laugh, although he thought that nothing in this world would make him laugh.
Total chaos, but Sebastian is pretty cool with that.
Secretly too, Naruto runs with the sibling if they ask to join.
The Farmer caught Sebastian during this run. Busted!
Harvey:
The Farmer's sibling is a frequent visitor to the clinic.
Oh, nothing serious, just scratches on their knees and bruises on their arms. Children often run without looking under their feet and this child is no exception.
Always gives them sugar-free candy after sanitizing their scratches.
Sometimes the sibling just walks into the clinic to say hi to the uncle doctor.
Sometimes brings gifts for the doctor.
From an older sibling - vegetables and fruits.
Sometimes from themself - a cool shell or dirt.
Harvey doesn't know how to react to this. But thank the child anyway.
Victor:
He also acts like an awkward uncle (behind Sebastian in first place), but knows what to do with an energetic child when the Farmer is busy.
He has a lot of video games, what do you want to play?
Wait, they want to play a bridge simulator? They think this is an interesting game?
This is now Victor's sibling. Deal with it, Farmer.
Confused when a child does something chaotic but will support them (unless it's something dangerous, of course!).
Victor is confused, but he got the spirit. I give him 8/10 as brother/uncle material.
Lance:
Lance doesn't know what surprised him the most: the presence of a child in the Adventurers' guild, or their requests to show "fire in the palm of your hand."
He turned his head towards Marlon with a questioning look.
"Farmer's sibling. They asked to look after the kid for an hour while they clear the caves of monsters."
Oh, they have sibling?
Still, Lance gave in to the child's requests and formed a small fire sphere in his right hand.
"Awesome! See what I can"
They formed a similar sphere in their palms, but the elements of ice.
Hold on, what?
Although, remembering the event with the Farmer on Ginger island and learning about magic relics, Lance is not so surprised.
"Two talented young and chaotic mages, that's more of a headache for Magnus" Marlon thought as he watched it all.
"Indeed" Lance agrees and smiles.
Magnus:
Please don't touch this. Don't touch that either. Those books are very old, be careful! Please put the mushrooms back, he needs them for potions. For heaven's sake, stay out of his cauldron!-
Yoba, why does Magnus suffer so much.
First, Camilla with that ridiculous nicknames, blasted woman! Then Morgan almost burned down his tower, and then the Farmer and Junimos do something without warning the wizard.
And now this child. Child with magic. A walking chaos and troublemaker.
With magic and desir- put this potions back! - desire to poke their nose everywhere.
And yet, the child is kind, gets along well with Morgan, and is very talented, and...
No, don't touCH THOSE POTIONS-!
Somebody kill him.
SDV and SVE Bachelorettes:
Abigail:
At first she avoided the child. She is not a babysitter.
Then Farmer's sibling became interested in one of his older sibling's professions.
And saw Abigail again, asked if she was an adventurer too. They also want to become a warrior, and as cool as the Farmer and her.
Abby is now informally the child's mentor. No buts.
She realized that they are quite fun to be with, and they also love video games, another plus.
Abby will show them the cool crystals she found in the mines.
The child tried to bite off a piece of quartz.
Are they definitely not Abigail's distant relative, another "just taste the gem" lover?
But seriously, don't eat rocks please.
Penny:
Another young mind in her class.
Penny is very happy about the addition to her group.
Although this means more work with materials for the preparation of the school curriculum.
They are very smart and educated.
Although they give Penny a heart attack every time they climb a tree or get too close to a river bank.
Penny is like a mother hen, she doesn't let anyone go far.
She always helps them if they have learning difficulties.
Like the other children, she escorts the Farmer's sibling home.
The child always brings a beautiful and juicy apple to the young teacher. And sometimes a whole basket of apples.
Maru:
If you have problems with maths, Maru will help them.
Do you want to see the robots she makes?
Can I make the robot say something? Of course!
Makes a robot to... curse?
...
So, how old are they?
(Secretly also wants to give the robot such a function, but her father will not get it).
Gave them a couple of times to look through the telescope. With joy, she answers what kind of stars and planets they are.
"Aunt Maru, help build Lego"
Oh, with her, sibling will gather a separate civilization.
Teach them scientific puns.
Leah:
Leah's house door is now frequently knocked on.
"Aunt Leah, show me your new paintings, they are beautiful".
Well, how can Leah say no?
If the Farmer is busy then she can look after their sibling.
Mostly they are in nature.
Paints and clean sheets - and let the child create a miracle.
Sometimes they walk through the forest, where Leah shows them which berries are edible and which are poisonous.
Very proud of them if they already know.
She gets a good mood, and a basket of vegetables in gratitude from the Farmer - the day was a success.
Haley:
Haley is quite polite towards children, even if they are as chaotic as the Farm Relative.
Doesn't get mad at them even if they accidentally stained her clothes.
Periodically takes random photos of this running child.
It turns out very funny, you can make a good meme from this pictures.
And why not do it? But only of the Farmer themself and their sibling will allow it.
Now the kid is the star of the Internet.
Chaos of the Valley
Once she received a sunflower from them.
Haley will never forget this touching gift.
Scratch out the eyes with his new manicure to any bully who dares to offend them.
Try her, bitch.
Emily:
Always glad to see Farmer and their sibling at home.
She usually spoil the child with healthy sweets like pastille or sugar-free marmalade.
Emily can sew anything for them.
Do you want to be a pirate? Or an astronaut? Or maybe a vampire? Oh, or make a dinosaur costume.
Believe me, she is hung up on sewing. The main thing is to find a reason and time.
Can teach dancing or aerobics if the sibling asks.
He will tell you how to read a horoscope correctly.
Sibling will one day show her the magic in their palms.
Ah, Farmer! They are a wizard!
They are what?
Claire:
Please, child, Claire is trying to work. She is so tired
Don't ask her too many questions.
Where are their parents?
Ah, here they are. Well, not parents, but brother/sister, a new Farmer. The Farmer explained to their sibling that they should be well-mannered.
"Oh, okay. Sorry ms Claire".
Before and after work, she sees this child, but they are no longer clingy.
They greet her politely and move on.
They often give Claire dandelions they find and say she has a beautiful hair color.
A little angel.
They immediately cheer up Claire if she is depressed.
Given that the farm is very close to the bus stop, such meetings happen often.
Sometimes Claire treats the child to fresh apricots and apples that her neighbors gave her.
Sophia:
Oh hey.
...
How can Sophia talk to them?
Do you want to watch something cool on TV? I have anime, anime and... animal documentaries. Oh, and I also have anime.
With great pleasure, she will show them her cosplay.
Receive a small soft toy from the child as a gift.
"your toys will make another friend"
oh it's so cute
"And you have pretty hair like bubblegum. I like it."
Sophia, stop crying, you're scaring the child.
Do they love grampleton orange chicken as much as Sophia? And love anime?
Did someone say Sophia was an only child? Nothing like that, now she has a younger brother/sister.
Olivia:
Olivia is just like that grandmother who always spoils the children and gives them too much pocket money.
True, Olivia is not a grandmother, but a milf good looking middle-aged woman.
Spoils them to the point of impossibility, because they are so cute.
Even if the Farmer grumbles a little that she spoils them too much.
If a sibling comes to visit, they won't leave until they've eaten.
I'm telling you, she is like granny.
Olivia will show them an album of old photos of her family.
There's children's books in her library somewhere, if they're interested.

I'm so interested in your Anastasia au! will you tell us more?
yes of course i will! @revalito and i are genuinely so elated that so many people like the au HEHJKSDHJKS i will always want to talk about it trust
i don't know if there was something specific you wanted me to talk about, so i'll just talk about their time in the cloud recesses when they were younger =]
as i said before in my tags, wwx found lwj sitting outside the gentian cottage waiting for his mom and that's how they first met--he brought him a blanket and something warm to drink and offered to sit next to him. after that wwx would find lwj every now and then and hang around a bit but not for long. that does.. imply that his parents died sooner but well. HEJDSJKSD we figured one of the servants was his dad's close friend that agreed to babysit wwx for a while before they died, so now at least wwx has someone that was considered family (and that can tell him about his parents)
wwx didn't actually start working as a servant until he got older and that's when he was really allowed to interact with lwj. silly little comments turned into prompts to speak more and eventually, they'd have "conversations" (lwj would listen, wwx would talk) as wwx did what he had to. one day lwj asked wwx if he would be allowed to be a personal assistant on a quick task he had to do outside of the cloud recesses, and of course that's allowed. and that's the loophole they found to spend more time together =]
lxc knows about lwj's crush. he could read it on him easily HEJKSDJK i'd like to think one time wwx was called in to serve something to them, and as he did he made some comment to lwj. lwj acknowledged him with a small uptick of his lips and lxc was just ⁉️⁉️⁉️ HEHKJDHJKDHDJK he starts making excuses for wwx to go see lwj. the first time he asks a servant to call for wwx bc he needed something delivered to his brother it started a rumor within the servants immediately. this is where the teasing among them began HEHJKSDJKSDK lxc is the main reason why eventually wwx is the main servant/one of the only servants for lwj
wwx starts learning about cultivation in his free time--and we'd like to think the gusulan sect would set aside a teacher for willing servants on their breaks--but he never attends any actual classes. it isn't until they accept guest disciples when they're around 15/16 that he even entertains the idea. he probably makes a side comment to lwj, like "ah, guest disciples… it would have been nice to attend a class or two.." and lwj is immediately like i'm on it. he talks to lqr to attend the classes and ofc here lan qiren doesn't Need lwj to be a good example to wwx like he does in the novel, but we think lqr would still want to show him off HEHJKSJKSD also, lxc is probably like "it would be nice if wangji had more friends =] perhaps if we have wwx in there (someone he is already comfortable with) he would be more willing?" and that seals the deal HEJKSDHJKSD wwx is invited to his classes to be a "personal servant" to keep up appearances, but he is there to learn.
of course some other people there aren't to keen on the idea of having a servant in the class with them, so this time when lqr calls on wwx, it's not to test him, it's to prove his worth. he knows wwx and lwj are friends so in his head, his justification is that disciples are offending wwx -> they're offending lwj -> lwj is his nephew -> they are offending lqr too. ofc. HEHJKDSJKSDK lwj defends wwx in his own ways.
nie huaisang is the first to go up to wwx to chat and they become good friends, and since wwx is friends with lwj, nhs becomes friends with him too. it's a funny dynamic but lwj inwardly thinks it's nice.
thank you sm for asking! <3

Wakes up slams a fic about mangeko headcanons online and goes back to sleep.
kinda pre-mada/tobi if you squint
CW for a mercy killing.
Cool fingers pull away from Madara's temple, and chakra with them; without it, his eyes return to aching, as they do almost every day now.
He opens his eyes to the sight of Tobirama frowning down at his notes.
Ask Madara even last year if he would have let Tobirama anywhere near his eyes and he would have laughed in your face and then probably killed you on top of it. That they were here now was due to what else but Hashirama's meddling -- a comment here or there revealing that he knew Madara's eyesight was failing, a reminder of his ability to heal. When he'd tried, the admission that this, he could not help, but that his brother was much better at fine details like eyes than him --
He'd put the thought in Madara's head, and Madara had rejected the idea every time he'd thought of it -- through every migraine, through every day where his eyes ached so badly he preferred not to open them. He would not let Hashirama's mad scientist of a younger brother anywhere near his eyes.
Until Izuna had noticed. Had started pressuring Madara into taking his eyes. Madara knew Izuna would get his way given enough time to manipulate, and he would not leave his brother to live blind.
"What if I find a way to fix them?" He'd exploded, "Will you drop it then?"
And that had left him with only one place to go.
Tobirama had not gloated at him, had agreed that the payment for curing his failing eyesight would be the information he learned doing it. Had even agreed that Madara could reject any question he asked without explanation.
Though really, the thing that had convinced Madara that he hadn't made the worst mistake in his life was, when he admitted the weakness of the Mangeko, Tobirama's response -- faintly bitter -- that all bloodline limits had their drawbacks.
(Madara did not ask after Hashirama. But he wondered).
So far, Tobirama has not done anything to hurt him. Had, on the very first day, said that he could repair at least some of the damage to his eyes but admitted that until he could understand the root cause it would likely degenerate the next time he used his sharingan.
"Not any worse than last time." Tobirama remarks, "So at least the reinforcements held. But you haven't used the advanced state of your doujutsu, have you?"
"No." Madara admits. And that was the rub -- the cause had been obvious. The Mangeko forced in too much unrestrained chakra for even an Uchiha's well developed eye coils to handle, and the damage to the coils affected the body. It was finding a solution that was acceptable where things had stalled.
"Prolonged use could even start to affect the brain." Tobirama had said, flat and clinical, after the first time Madara had let him run a sweep of medical chakra through his eyes, "Though I suspect you would already be long blind by then."
Back then Madara had grit his teeth in a valiant effort to not explode at the man in anger. Now, he recognizes that was a simple statement of fact, nothing more. Whether or not Tobirama has plans to do anything with what he'd learned Madara still isn't sure, but the man had promised to heal his eyes and apparently intended to keep it with same work ethic that he had used to help construct the village. His methods have been rigorous, sometimes exhausting, but there is no question on if he was trying.
Which was to say that it was becoming clear, now that Madara has some idea on how to read the man, that he was just as frustrated with the lack of progress as Madara was. He doesn't show it by sighing or rubbing at his temples like Madara might, but by glaring at his notes and pressing down with his pen so hard that it might break.
"What, exactly, is the roadblock right now?" Madara still doesn't know if having the Senju speak his thoughts out loud helps or distracts, but in the end they are his eyes, and Tobirama always humors him when he asks.
This time, he has to take a long moment to pull his thoughts together.
"If it were just too much chakra, I think I could find a solution. There are techniques that temporarily increase the size of ones coils…"
Madara blinks, "The Akimichi?"
There had been some talk about Tobirama taking an Akimichi onto his team recently. Did that have something to do with him?
Tobirama finally looks up. He nods, but there's a unhappy tilt to his mouth.
"It allows for more chakra to pass through, but it makes the coils weaker. It's not a problem for the Akamichi since their chakra is so stable and their coils are more robust than most. For an Uchiha…" He looks away, gaze unfocused, "You could handle it normally, but the Mangeko makes your chakra especially volatile."
Tobirama pauses for only a moment. One of the first things he'd asked had been the reason for the extra instability in chakra that happened when the sharingan was activated, and Madara had said he would not answer. To his credit, he hasn't asked again.
"…And every solution I've considered for reducing the volatility will likely also end up reducing the power in some way." Which was unacceptable, it went without saying.
A month ago Madara would never have volunteered this information, but he's tired -- of the constant ache, of the experiments, of Izuna behaving as though he would be fine if he were blind. Tobirama has won the information he'd asked for, by attrition, and by accident.
"Part of the instability comes from the technique itself." Madara admits, closing his eyes so as not to see Tobirama's sharp gaze snap to him (and that had been another odd thing -- Madara wasn't sure he had ever made so much eye contact with a non-clan member before), "And part of it comes from the fact that in order to activate it, we have to recall the memory that awoke the sharingan in the first place."
He keeps his eyes closed, so he does not know what expression Tobirama makes, only that the man's voice is unusually hesitant when he clarifies, "…Every time?"
"Not in full, but the emotions that come with it? Every time."
The riverbank, the determination to protect his family -- that memory was like an old friend to him.
He called up his Mangeko less. That one still ached.
He has not woken up, and the healers said it was likely that he wouldn't before he passed.
Tajima had given as good as he'd gotten, and Madara prays that Butsuma Senju's death had been as long and agonizing as his father's has been. He reaces out, folds his hands over Izuna's, over the blade his little brother holds. The tremble in Izuna's hand was too small to be seen, but Madara can feel it as he wraps his fingers tight.
He does not comment on it. Just this once, such weakness can be forgiven.
If Tajima is only going to lie there unconscious and in pain until he expires, then there is only one thing that makes sense. If Madara and Izuna can grow more powerful from his death, then Madara knows with surety that it's what he would have wanted.
Izuna squeezes his eyes closed and takes a steadying breath before opening, meeting Madara's whirling sharingan with his own.
"Okay." His little brother breathes.
Their hands move together. The cut is quick and deep, but the blood still sprays over their hands, over their clothes. Tajima still wheezes a horrible sound, searching for a last breath, convulses when he can't.
They're shinobi, death is a thing that is a once close and impersonal, this --
This burns.
Every time.
"…I'm sorry." Says Tobirama, and Madara's eyes fly open. Because Tobirama Senju is a man who does not apologize, much less for things that have nothing to do with him.
The look on his face is unreadable, but it's not pity, Madara thinks.
"For what?" Madara wheezes, ears buzzing. He has no idea whether to be furious or not, no idea what to feel at all.
Tobirama raises an eyebrow, "The sharingan gives perfect memory, does it not? To have to recall such things every time…" He shakes his head, "Perhaps your clan is more sane than I ever gave you credit for."
There's so much unsaid in that statement that Madara will ruminate on later, but for now he warns, "Messing with a sharingan user's memory is not only nearly impossible, but a taboo as well."
There have been plenty who have tried, who wanted the memories burned into their eyes out and gone. And clan record after clan record showed that, without fail, those who tried went insane. This was a line he would not allow Tobirama to cross.
"I suspected as much." Tobirama agrees easily, if not a little wry. "Fine. No memory manipulation. Then what about emotions?"

shoutout to the time i thought juggalos were just a random type of clown in the same way rodeo and pierrot is, and I off-handedly mentioned them in a conversation about clowns to one of my DQ managers when I worked there, and she fucking lost her mind laughing and I was like. damn. I didn't think my joke was THAT funny but okay. and then I never looked up what a juggalo actually was until just last year, like four years after I'd stopped working at that place 🧍

Today.............. has genuinely. Been. A Day.
Have some OC doodles I started yesterday before tragedy struck and are like the bare minimum effort for today to finish. Since the two princes were originally not /in canon/ for another plot but rather made for a mafia AU as cousins to one of the main characters for the base plot. I was like. Huh let's give them a happier life. So here they're just princes and instead of the police department/detectives that most of the main cast is in base plot, those are the royal guards around the twins' castle.
