💋 you are divine

everything is working out the best case scenario 💫

What do you think would’ve happened if Heinkel had been the one to fall into a coma instead of Louanna? I just think the potential of that is very juicy because like that completely changes the Astrea family dynamics!

oh i ADORE this idea so much!!! arghhh i love astrea family dynamics so much and i really really like each member - though of course i hope we learn more about louanna soon!!! im so curious about her and everyone in the family BUT her is at least decently fleshed out already!! but yes okay this idea is great and also Everyone in these reddit threads have brainstormed all kinds of ideas for Other Astrea Members Falling Comatose (heinkel, reinhard, theresia, or wilhelm) far far better than i could so if anyone seeing this hasnt seen those i highly recommend reading!! super fun ideas going on <3

but yeah my quick two cents on heinkel specifically going comatose is that, like people have mentioned in those threads that stuff would happen differently. marcos doesnt rejoin the royal guard, reinhard probably doesnt get the dp of mind changing, wilhelm might die to the whale instead since heinkel isnt around to get sent on a suicide mission and wilhelm Would Not Back Down from that, etc etc. or did theresia get sent to kill the whale right away while wilhelm like in canon went to deal with the royal family?? that sort of thing.

i think ultimately we dont 100% know what would happen on the louanna side of things just because. we dont know anything about how she was as a person hah so hard to predict!! but i think things would probablyy turn out a little better given everything i just mentioned. and also the bar for how canon went is super low anyway aljsdfl. but yeah i mean louanna seems like she might cope a little better (i mean. shes Probablyy not the type to fall into alcoholism right haha). or she might Also Cope Badly, depending on how you wanna interpret this. and depending on how louanna turns out to be as a person. and Someone is still gonna die to the whale probably. so things are Not That Great and also heinkel being comatose means he wont be head of the house. louanna in this situation either way would need to take charge - both in the sense that uh, in the end it'll just be her and one of reinhard's grandparents left around, and also in the sense that she is reinhards only parent left now. and also reinhard Might get a bit more pressure to hurry into the royal guard sooner. he'll get compared to his comatose MIA dad im sure :(( esp since heinkel is. frozen in time.

theres Always something chilling about how in canon, long term sleeping beauty syndrome victims are just. Stuck. in time. forever frozen. never aging a single day from the moment they were gone. thats Haunting. thats like living with a ghost thats still there. and in this au itd be heinkel!! heinkel whos still at his prime and hasnt truly had a permanent failure yet (losing his mom to the whale, losing louanna to a coma, etc etc), and of course like canon heinkel, louannas left to pick up the pieces which is always really sad to me :(( she and heinkel were young too when all of this started to go wrong T^T like Still Adults, of course, but still young!! like shes 21 and hes 22 T^TT wild stuff.

also i do agree with people who said that louanna might just wack reinhard over the head for kidnapping felt like that. 1000%.

anyway!!! astrea family drama still goes Wrong i think somehow, in another font, if heinkel or anyone else is the one that gets put into a coma :(( it might be better or worse depending on what happens!! and depending on who gets comatose and who Dies!! but yes i think everything goes a bit wrong either way :(( they can never win T^T but itd shift dynamics around every time which is the fun part!!

Comedic Barnaby ask here again! I'm sorry, I meant your Modern Human au thingy, my bad lmao.

ohhh ok - was just informed that you probably mean comedian, which makes a lot more sense than what my mind was interpreting!

he does actually do little side gigs around comedy! he even got a degree in clowning, but his main job (at the "present day" part of the timeline) is bartending at the same queer club that Eddie does drag performances in! sometimes Barns will open a show etc with a lil' stand-up act, and when he can, he'll do other comedy-based stuff at local venues

i've seen a few comments before (not on here, just in the past on other sites) frustrated and confused about why the oldest dream never talked to yoo joonghyuk. or anyone for that matter. why couldn't he just say something, anything at all? did he feel nothing as they suffered? couldn't he have helped somehow?

and there's a lot i could say about this and a lot of various layers and details and perspectives. but in the end it all comes down to this:

not a single one of us can talk to the characters in a book we're reading.

that's just how it works.

I mean, saying “it doesn’t matter” over and over doesn’t make it true. I sure as hell don’t believe you. None of this is okay. None of what happened is okay.

I’m just sayin. Dude. It. Matters.

alright. okay. you know what? sure. congrats! you won. it matters. i hope you're happy.

then what.

i mean, your old man bites it and you drop out of uni. hey, that's life for ya. but sure, have it your way. uhhh... "wow! that was bad. it matters."

then what.

you move out. start things over with your brother, settle down with something to keep you busy. it’s not much, but it pays the bills, right? meet some new people. make some new friends. call that a change of air. you have your old pals one call away, anyway, so really. things start to look pretty good, you know?

next thing you know it’s all gone. that's messed up, isn’t it? that’s not “fair”.

then. what. 

mind giving me a clue here? cause i’ve been at it for ten years, pal, and i still don’t know what the HELL i’m supposed to do with that cause uh. i tried! i really did, to go back and fix it. because “it mattered”. i tried for years. and the only thing i ever got out of it was trouble. 

heh... no. that wasn't the ONLY thing.

you can’t understand how it felt. knowing that any day, without warning, it could all be reset. that one timeline too many and everything would just… end. just like that. and we’d be none the wiser. what was the point? this wasn’t our game, we weren’t calling the shots anymore. or uh, ever, for the matter. gaster didn’t accept it, and look where that got him. so uh no. it CAN’T matter. you can’t hold onto stuff like this. cause it’s gonna suck you in like a bird in a jet engine.

some day, you’re gonna learn when to QUIT. and it’s not gonna be any kinda special moment, either. THAT’S when the penny's gonna drop: that you’re never gonna get out of here… that you’ll never see them again. while you’re buying eggs at the goddamn grocery store.

huh? “then what”? then you joke with the shopkeeper. then you buy the damn eggs. then you get in your bed and you sleep for a week, and when you wake up again… you take what life throws at you and you roll with it. cause every day you wake up, at least the world isn't ending yet.

this was never about me. not my life, not my friends, not my family. but you don’t care. you just don't get it, do you. it. doesn't. matter. not because they meant nothing to me. or i didn't... don't... care. it doesn't matter because THIS is as good as it gets for me. cause at the end of the day, i got LUCKY.

BIGGG information sheet of my boy coming soon

i re-read the horror fic and. mmm im thinking so much abt the possible alternate timeline that wouldve come into place if luz decided hunter wasnt safe at the castle. specifically the scenario of her just RUNNING up to darius and going "i can not explain myself but can you pretty please kidnap hunter. get him as far from the castle as physically possible. tell him im dead if he gets pissed. cool, thanks, bye." while not letting him get a word in before bolting off.

LMFAO????

thank god darius has at LEAST enough emotional intelligence to be like "actually you know what. i don't think i'm going to tell him that his entire reason for being and the central purpose he's structured his entire life around is dead. that seems like a bad plan to me"

Alright hear me out. An autistic restaurant. The lights are dim. The chairs are customizable so you can sit however suits you. The plates all have divider sections. You can order from a giant selection of safe foods that are all prepared separately. You can mix and match as you choose but by default none of the things you order are touching. You put your order in via text message to the server. When they drop everything off they wait a reasonable amount of time before checking if things are okay so you can process whether or not they are. Every table comes with "reorder" coupons so you don't feel guilty about asking them to fix mistakes. One side of the restaurant is for quiet and the other is for people who want to talk. There is sound proofing. You order an appetizer of fidget toys before you order your food.

instead of grinding for finals i lost hours to a one piece wiki spiral

i think it's clear that the only people against long seasons are the execs and higher ups running the studios

i have a phone interview today for an entry level position that starts at $34/hour?!?! throwing up
