Never Have I Ever | Jake Sim

౨ৎ˚⟡˖ ࣪"you sure you a virgin, baby?"

synopsis: You play a game called 'Never Have I Ever' a popular TV show with a cute boy named Jake in hopes of finding your true love. During the game, he figures out some cute things about you.

Your a... virgin?

warnings: protected sex,(FINALLY, I MADE IT HAPPEN), kissing, biting, make-outs, jake and y/n are famous but not k-pop way (like tiktokers or smth), you really trust each other, pet names ?, little degrading, and size kink scattered everywhere if u squint <3, mature topic and jokes, y/n is a virgin but she like INexperienced, you get me?

{☆} I don't like this so i might delete it if you guys don't like it.🤷🏽‍♀️

As you impatiently settled into your seat, the camera set pulled a thumbs-up. Your heart was racing with anticipation, and you couldn't wait for the show to begin. You felt the cameras flash and suddenly, your attention was diverted as a tall, handsome boy entered the room. His smile was infectious, and you feel drawn to him. As he walked over to his seat, you found yourself stealing glances in his direction.

"Hey, I'm Jake", he says and sticks out his veiny hands for a handshake. You smile and extend your hand, introducing yourself as "y/n". His hands are big and pretty compared to yours, which are small and neatly painted. His hands feel warm and soft as you shake them.

You were each given cards with questions to ask each other. If a question was too personal, the person would take a shot of a strong drink instead. The hope was that these shots would lead to revealing secrets unintentionally.

Which wasn't needed for you two.

#take 1

It has been about 20 minutes into the game, and you and Jake are really getting along[!]

It seems like you two connected straight away and wouldn't stop trying to make the other one blush. You even managed to sneak a hand under his thigh and caught him looking a bit too long, down your chest.

#take 2

"Never have I ever had a wet dream about someone I liked" he puts his hand on his chin, pretending to think. He writes on his board 'Not yet' and you question him.

"I'm probably going to have some about you tonight", he bites his lip, surprising you with his words. You cover your face, which is turning bright red, with your hands. Now it's his turn to laugh at you.

'ok last question !'

You squeal silently in your seat, kicking your feet as you start speaking again. "Never have I ever had proper sex" you laugh as if you don't know the answer.

"Well, I have" he sits up from his seat, cocking a brow as if he was asking you something "have you?".

Your face slightly burns up as you look down "No.."

Oh, he found you so cute, almost popped a boner. You were just so perfect, short, tiny, pretty, adorable, and most importantly, a virgin.

His teeth sunk into his bottom lip as he watched you have a moment of shock.

The room lit up with bright lights as 'victory' music played. You guys had won the game, and you were awarded the title of the cutest couple on the show.

You were both stood up, and you looked at him as he intertwined ur fingers slowly walking off the set.

౨ৎ˚⟡˖ ࣪

Oh, flip. You are having your first date with Jake, and you're trembling, not confident like you always are. You have gotten your nails done with French tips, and it's making it worse, as you can't get a stand of hair pulled back.

You curse to yourself, about to throw a tantrum while rushing to find a hairbrush, but it's okay; y/n always wins in the end.

You let out a loud huff as you looked at yourself again, practising different smiles for when you see him. Finally, you leave your house, enter your Uber, and reach the café in under 10 minutes.

I couldn't finish it right now, but obviously..

part 2?

(ill tag you if you reblog and comment!)

This is a response to an ask that Tumblr deleted while I was trying to post it. I did, however, get the chance to save my response. I do apologize to the anon, but it really was a fault of the website, I reached out to them to see if they could restore it, but they said it was impossible! DISCLAIMER: The anon who wrote the post did not accuse Jimin of anything btw, they're actually a Jikooker. I was getting to the last section of the ask where they went into some theories surrounding a few things!

Anyways... let's just read what I wrote.

Don't apologize for the ask length! Honestly, I'm fine with it, I tend to give extra long answers to many of the people who stop by anyway.

Honestly, before I address anything else, I'm going to respectfully disagree with the point that you brought up with the Set Me Free dance practice and the Agust D concert in Seoul. Of course, I know that you stated that you don't necessarily agree with this idea of stiffness either and that you think there's a deeper, underlying reason for it.. but, I would still like to talk about some of these incidents in reference to some other interactions among the members.

Does Jimin Make Jungkook Uncomfortable?

It's the million-dollar question that has everyone dying to know the answer.

Well. I do not subscribe to nor support the idea or theory that Jungkook is uncomfortable with Jimin in ANY capacity, because as it's been proved time and time again, whether it be in interviews, personal lives, FESTA segments, etc... Jungkook and Jimin have a pretty close bond built off of years of friendship and mutual trust. In the 지민 Choreography Practice Sketch, although Jungkook and Jimin don't do a lot of physical touching, the language speaks for itself. I don't know if you speak Korean or if you understand any of it, but the language that the two of them used was relaxed and comfortable. Jungkook was even making playful demands of Jimin, his hyung. If Jungkook was truly awkward or standoffish with Jimin, he would probably stick to using polite speech, establishing a type of spoken distance -- which wouldn't be odd, given that the two of them were in a public space. Also, we only saw bits and pieces of his visit, so I think it's unfair for us to come to a conclusion such as this based on bite-sized footage. I mean, the video was never meant to center on the people who visited Jimin, but rather on the time and effort he spent in perfecting the choreography for his first solo debut. So no, upon watching the Bangtan Bomb, there wasn't even a moment where I felt as if there was some sort of weird tension between them. I think a lot of these sentiments get lost in the subtitles.

Now for this next part, you wrote:

"Tae will flat out use Jk as a pillow and u would get zero reaction from Jk. Any other member can touch him or put their arms around him and Jk just sits there paying no mind to whatever they are doing but the moment he senses Jimin moving closer, he either moves away, flinches, or sits there looking uneasy or kinda uncomfortable just cuz Jimin has his arm on him."

... a lot of this is just untrue. There have been so many times when Jimin has moved closer to Jungkook, has draped his arms around him, has gotten into his personal bubble -- and there's been absolutely no reaction. Zero. Zilch. Nada. A lot of the clips 'proving' the accusations against Jimin have been carefully crafted and cherry-picked among a sea of thousands of other instances where the contrary proves to be true: Jimin and Jungkook are comfortable with one another.

There have been several cases where Jimin has used Jungkook as a personal pillow (or vice versa), the two cozying up after dance practice or in between shoots to read a manga together. Jungkook shows no reluctance, no stiffness.

I can give you another example of this: in the Euphoria (DJ Swivel Forever Mix), if you go to 1:31 in the video, it's Jungkook laying comfortably on the floor, and at 1:37, tucked right underneath his arm is Jimin's head, slightly out of frame, the two boys enjoying some floor time while they aimlessly scroll on their phones. Jimin playfully nudges him after, earning a few giggles. It's a sweet moment. Also, a lot of the clips put into that video were filmed by Jimin.

... I don't know why I never noticed, but he has carrots on his phone case. I think... I think I need to lie down... that's so cute..

I think I would need to see more clips of instances where Jungkook looked 'uncomfortable' with Jimin putting his arms on him or touching him, because eight times out of ten, Jungkook is also the one initiating physical contact with Jimin -- just because he can. This is someone he has known for years, a close friend, a brother he can trust.

I mean, there's a clip where Hoseok goes to kiss Jungkook's neck, I believe it was the behind-the-scenes for the DNA MV or a Memories snippet, and Jungkook cranes away, trying to avoid it. Does that mean Jungkook is uncomfortable with Hoseok? Hell no. There's a Bon Voyage clip (?) where Jungkook accepts a cheek kiss from Hoseok before going to bed. Jungkook also gives Hoseok a kiss on the neck in Bon Voyage S2.

I guess it just depends on how he's feeling or where he is. A lot of the times that I've seen Jungkook pull his face away from Jimin has been in pretty public places, like sets, on-stage concerts, or shoots. When Jungkook pulled his head away from Hoseok, he was also on a set. And even when Jungkook pulled his face away, he still had allowed Jimin and Hoseok to get relatively close; if he was that uncomfortable he would have pushed them away or held his arms out. That's what people tend to do. Obviously, Jungkook doesn't hate Hoseok... so where do we go from here? Why do we always ride the Jimin hate train when many other members express the same sort of affection towards Jungkook, or hell, to each other?

You can even see his hand pushing against Hoseok's shoulder here. Why aren't these nasty antis screaming about this?

I mean, you rarely ever see this agenda of discomfort pushed toward any other member other than Jimin... and that's because these toxic shippers/solos don't actually care about any of the other members or their interactions with Jungkook. I was literally able to debunk the majority of the accusations made against Jimin in only a few examples.

Jungkook kissed Jin's leg during a shoot once and Jin wasn't a big fan... so are we supposed to call Jungkook a harasser? Taehyung also kissed Jin on the cheek without his consent during a RUN BTS episode, so obviously, Taehyung makes Jin uncomfortable.

... Now would you look at that, people never talk about this in the same way they talk about Jimin. Maybe because we all know that they don't make each other uncomfortable! All of this is bullshit!

We are not Jungkook, so how are we supposed to know how he's feeling? I think this is the real root of the problem; people see certain situations and insert themself into them, asking how they would feel if they were in their shoes. However, some of these innocent moments become victims of baseless projecting, where the accuser tends to have some sort of vendetta against one of the people in the picture.

I mean, a lot of Jimin's antis are toxic Taekookers; a lot of them don't like the idea of seeing Jimin with Jungkook because they think Jungkook belongs to Taehyung, so they start to interpret every little move that Jimin does toward Jungkook as targeted harassment. Who cares what Jikook has to say about their friendship. Who cares about the fact that Taehyung and Jimin are best friends. If Taehyung was dating Jungkook and felt like Jimin was harassing him, do you really think that Taehyung would continue to be friendly towards Jimin? Do you really think that he would willingly accept his hug at Yoongi's concert, especially if he had made Jungkook uncomfortable AT that concert?

(again, not accusing all Taekookers of being Jimin antis, that would be fucking ridiculous. I mean, some toxic Jikookers are anti-Taehyung, the trending page on Twitter a few days ago was proof of it.)

Anyways, let's take this hypothetical situation a step further: If Jimin was harassing Jungkook or making him uncomfortable, do you think that the other members would sit there and cosign his behavior? Do you think that they would let Jimin do whatever he wanted to Jungkook knowing just how bad Jungkook felt? Are all of BTS complicit bystanders in a fucked up chain of abuse? Does Jungkook have any real support system among them? Why did Jungkook willingly get the friendship tattoo (one of the largest in size, may I add) if he's not actually friends with any of them? What's the point of Jungkook being a member of BTS if everyone hates him?

See how this logic falls apart the moment you put a little bit of thought into it? And according to these toxic shippers, this harassment has been occurring since the beginning of their careers. Do you really think Jungkook would re-sign his contract? Do you think that any of the members would re-sign their contract knowing that Jimin is an abuser? No. Of fucking course not. When they re-signed their contracts in 2018, BTS reportedly had outside lawyers helping them through the process. They were able to make demands outside of the influence of their company.

For the Agust D concert, Jimin did a very similar maneuver that he had done before when Hoseok was enlisting, pulling Jungkook's face closer before wrapping him up into a hug. In the Bangtan Bomb, Jungkook and Jimin shared a few words laced with laughter, Jungkook accepting Jimin's gesture before joining him in the hug, hands wrapped around his back and upper arm. At the concert, Jimin pulled him in almost in the same way, Jungkook's eyes scrunching in a similar fashion, the only thing different is that the two didn't join for a hug as Jungkook backed away.

So, does this mean Jungkook hates Jimin? I mean, it's only June and Hoseok's enlistment happened in April... does that mean in the past two months, Jungkook has suddenly grown to dislike him?

See how none of this makes any fucking sense?

A lot of this is just framing and handpicking content to fit an agenda. You can watch harmless Taekook compilations that use clips from the same live that a Jikook compilation uses, the two shipping groups using different times in the live to prove the validity of their pairing when both possibilities equally coexist in the content. BTS has documented over ten years of their life online, there is going to be a lot of content that is overlooked and often forgotten. Not to mention, BTS probably has even more content locked up in a vault somewhere, dusting away, its contents never meant to see the sunlight.

People are once again only making assumptions based on what is published, but these are real people who have private lives behind the screen. How could you possibly justify knowing what's going on in someone's head, especially if you've never met them?

We didn't hear the conversations they had that day at that concert, we didn't get to see Jungkook's full reaction to Jimin's dance practice, we didn't get to participate in all of those lives, in all of those green room sessions. So how on EARTH do we know? How could we say with 100% confidence that we know what happens when the cameras are off or on? How can we justify telling other people that we assembled the whole picture of what happened when we've never even held a conversation with BTS themselves? Well, some have had the chance to talk to them through fan signs and phone calls... but my point still stands.

It's just projection. Pure projection.

Jimin and Jungkook are close. All of Bangtan are close. All of them are friends. All of them have a bond like siblings. I'm so tired of these nasty people attempting to create a rift between fans and the boys themselves. Also, I'm sorry to you anon that I really didn't touch on anything else in your ask... oops. I appreciated hearing your opinion despite the fact that I only really talked about the points toward the end. Feel free to stop by again if you have anything else to say.

Free vminkook from these terrible antis.

No no get started on the whole "new adult" thing, I desperately want to hear

Ok, so here's the thing about New Adult:

It's a genre that's been emerging lately in the catalogs I view when doing frontlists (essentially just pre-orders for upcoming titles) for the book store and I'd been wondering what the hell it was. I'd noticed it was especially common in the descriptors for the romance books, but it was often the ones with that sort of sexy-but-not-full-blown-erotica kind of book that also tended to have the sort of description full of fanfic trope terms and "for fans of [usually a Young Adult title]" or "like [popular title] combined with [other popular title]!!" <- and here it's important to note that the popular titles don't always sound like they would mesh well.

And finally, FINALLY, one of these books is highlighted by the sales rep who works with us and she's got a little blurb about it and I get my first useful description of what "New Adult" is:

"Imagine the golden age of YA - The Hunger Games, Divergent, The Mortal Instruments - but aged up and spicy."

S P I C Y

Which would explain why they're not-quite-erotica type books, you see, we're not straight up PORN we're just ✨️spicy✨️

Nevermind that a lot of these books do have sex in them, but whatever, it's SPICY because that's what's popular to say on BookTok!

Oh. Right. Yeah. BookTok also gets mentioned a lot in listings for this sort of title.

And yes, this includes the Court of... books by Sarah J Maas and things like The Infatuated Fae books by Jeaneane O'Riley. In fact, I'm pretty sure O'Riley was described as a "BookTok darling" in the contributor bio part of the listing, but don't quote me on that, I'd have to look at the listing again.

Anyway, these are some of the biggest offenders regarding that whole "we will describe this with fanfic buzz terms and BookTok girlies will eat it up :)" issue.

#replies #answered #again i think Macmillan and Sourcebooks have had some of the more... interesting entries in the New Adult category #oh haha also go look up the LJ Shen Sinners of Saint books those made me laugh and also cry when I was looking at the listings #and yes another point i didn't put in the body of the post is like.. u know all those books that came out after titles like Hunger Games #where they completely miss what made it popular #yeah i feel like there's a lot of that in the New Adult stuff especially w certain character types #idk how they make every single protagonist sound exactly the same or make every male love interest cold and distant #hhhhggghh slogging through these books is soooo boring and painful sometimes but u get through it to find the couple of #interesting looking titles mixed in there #i complain a lot about the deluge of romance and new adult titles but there are some cool looking books upcoming too #i might make a post about that later but here u go i hope that answers ur question hsgshsg

how did u choose your username?

oh, this is a fun one!! i think i considered being swordtold at first, for that very ancient myth vibe of the sword being this narrative tool for adventure and structure and physical time, the parable being passed down through the centuries until it meddles into modern day rhetoric and ideology – a kind of fantastical tool, a spark of magic, of possibility.

i like the arc of the story of a place being physical / having it be held by time and hand alike, wearing with the years and having it become something different to each holder, each reader, each experience fantastical and individual.

having that kind of physicality to it; swordheld is the action of taking up and holding the sword yourself, choosing your own narrative, leading your own story. self-identity has always been something i struggle with (a novel concept i know, i know), so it felt right for this blog, since most of my older blogs before this one have been just me silently reblogging and never really posting anything myself, and i wanted this to be the change to that.

i've always had trouble wranging my social anxiety, esp. on the internet, and previously thought that keeping my words to myself helped keep the timeline cleaner, in a way, no messy thoughts for others to sort through, especially ones i believed no one would want to read anyway? but it never felt right, keeping myself apart from it all, esp. not in the way i so avidly enjoyed reading others' posts and additions, keeping their words close to my heart.

i wanted it to reflect that this was a space i was holding for myself? and i'm a little slow on the uptake sometimes, but this - this i think i got right. i love being here, on this blog, and the joy that it brings me. everyone else enjoying it too has been a wild ride that i never expected, and still surprises me, one that brings a little extra thrill to my heart whenever i think about it.

i had other urls that i liked, but i didn't want this blog to be tied directly to any of my fandom/story interests, since i wanted it to really just be a sort of archive of artistic inspiration and resource, like a little library or museum. i use them now as lil sideblogs of more niche interests now, which is rather lovely.

it hasn't always felt like it fit perfectly, the way that i'd like, but for some reason i can't think of really wanting to change it anytime soon. it feels mythic yet modern in a way that feels like puzzle pieces finally slotting into their place, something my own and inspirational to me, like a lantern i'm holding to make my way by. my own kind of light, if that makes sense – a star i know by name.

#q&a.#birdsong.#all of this is truly just a way to say: it's your blog! it's your party! do what you like if it makes you happy!! (and doesn't hurt anyone!#live your dreams!!!!!! do your own thing truly it is worth it. which feels silly and cheesy inspirational talk vibes but u kno. it's right #thank u for ur question tho !!! it's been so long that i don't really remember exactly what the beginning of it all was?#it wasn't always my url for this blog esp. in the beginning but i've forgotten what that was ghjk so sorry dear anon !#like little flashes of a story in my memory i have to make out / like steam or fog on a window pane. blurry and unclear?#but now it feels more intentional / almost like watercolor! something that mixes itself into a new thing; bright and bursting w/ it all.#i hope this answers ur question nicely all the same tho <3 #i always on habit write out lantern as lanturn so this is an unintentional shout out to one of my fav pokemon love u lanturn !!#some of these things i truly do just write out bc i know it'll make me laugh later if i ever come back to it. lil joys for ur future self !#and that IS a reference to the dickinson poem ' i am out with lanterns looking for myself ' it is in my brain always ! ! thank u ! !

What does Narinder think about Aym and Baal?

Lmao he honestly doesn't care much about them at first

Aym and Baal always made it clear that they disliked him, but he never cared much for them besides "oh yeah they exist"

It's not that he doesn't like him, but he's kinda indifferent; also kinda related to the fact they barely had seen each other

After chapter 2 tho, their relationship changes. While not as close as they could be, they grow to be found of each other and aware that none of them wish ill on each other. In a way, he and Aym kind of become friends, at least they feel comfortable to talk about certain things

#cult of the lamb #narinder cotl #aym cotl #baal cotl #the lamb cotl #<- Sisyphus is annoyed at the 2 btw dhdjdjdnfdnfmdncn thats why they look like that #the lamb and the cat prophecy au #cotl au #puffy art #fanart #traditional art #ask #anon #tysm for the ask!!! sorry for taking some time to answer it but i hope it answer ur question well :00

hi team! thanks for sticking around! i know my blog isn't always the most exciting and enriching place in the world in terms of content, but i am very /content/ to have you all here. <3333

i promise, oddly enough, i have A TON of inspiration and ideas for all my weird styles ( if you're curious about anything please lmk! i've been trying to flesh out my aus out lately ), i've just been in a major bummer depression era lately, so it's hard for me to get my asks done and i'm having a hard time committing to finishing my writing. :<

i think it's because of stress and my bipolar, but i am trying to get back on the horse! ( are we all laughing at the idea of me trying to get on a horse? i'd start crying help city girl fail moment for me ) yeehaw!

and while, unfortunately due to the instability ( fabulous legendary iconery ) of my pretty girl popstar personality, i do not know whether i will be answering almost no questions or one million, regardless of that, i just wanted to let you know, i'm still here, still kicking my feet, twirling my hair, cooking...i'm just really trying not to force myself to put out anything i don't like...and only do what makes me truly happy.

however, nothing, my dear sweet e-darlings...

makes me happier than coming home to all of you. <333

so thank you for flooding even the darkest corners of my life with bright light, supporting my phantom fics and being wonderful,

Hi!! Hello!! Your worldbuilding has once again enchanted and fascinated me! But I have no one to talk to about mcyt-related worldbuilding so I’m just going to (definitelynot) shout (ha ha. I’m funny.) at you if that’s ok!!

Ever since I found this fandom I’ve been fascinated by how to deal with video game mechanics in writing, and I’ve found it a very interesting ongoing puzzle, to come up with worldbuilding or lore to explain the more mechanical, coding-based stuff and cover up the fact that the characters are in a videogame. I think that’s part of why I love your worldbuilding so much, because you went in completely the opposite direction, and made Code the base, the reality-fabric, of all the rest of your universe! It kinda blew my mind!

Anyway, the player inventory and in-game chat are two of the most glaringly Video Game mechanics, and two of the first that I came up with explanations for, which is why I (like Tango) latched onto those few lines and details about them in chapter four. For me, they’re both explained by the very flexible fabric of reality inherent to server-words. Because reality is so easy to manipulate (and be manipulated without breaking down) in these worlds, it’s easy for Players to simply open a small personal pocket dimension they can store stuff in. (The same way it’s easy to make something float by just leaving it there and taking away what connects it to the ground) the chat happenes basically the same way. Server-worlds allow for a very shallow telepathic link across all players that everyone experiences a little differently (you might see it scroll across the inside of you arm, look at it in the corner of your vision, actually hear it quietly in your head, etc.)

But that’s a lot of My Ideas, I am, in fact, here because of Your Ideas. Because I’ve alway seen them as sperate things, and I am So Curious about how you’ve linked them. The chat being on external comms on a watch or phone-like device seems pretty common in the fandom, but linking them the way you have — in that you can’t have an inventory without a comm — raises so many questions!! (/pos) how do they work? Are they mechanical? Magical? Natural? Bio-magical? If they were something that needed to be invented, who invented them? How long have they been around? What did people do before then? How does a new player get their first comm/inventory? If comms can comunicate across worlds, could they theoretically take their inventory across worlds/servers as well? Is cross-void trade a very dangerous, but lucrative, profession? Do they have to exchange comm-phone-numbers or can they immediately contact anyone they’ve ever met? If you have stuff in your inventory and you loose your comm, do you lose the stuff too? Or does it transfer like an ender chest? Could someone else steal your inventory by stealing your comm? Does a player have to attune to a comm like a dnd magic item? How common is it to have to build a new one?

I’m gonna stop now because this is really long, it’s 11, and I Will just keep thinking of more questions. I’m so intrigued by this!! Those few little lines have completely captivated me with their potential!! I’m excited!!

(Sorry if this had a bit too much of my own personal worldbuilding ramble, I just really wanna talk to someone about this stuff!)

Ive been 👁️👁️ at this ask since you sent it in and first of all im so sorry the autism won for a bit and kept me from answering your questions, second of all i think your worldbuilding is SO NEAT :DDD this is SUPER COOL i love your ideas, comms being a telepathic link is so interesting to me!!! Also, im intensely flattered that you like the direction i took with hunger au's worldbuilding so much!! I've been having a lot of fun sorta marrying biology and irl physics with computer programming-based building building blocks for this universe, to the point where im actually starting to put together a legit glossary in my masterlist doc to keep it all straight in my head 😂😂😂 it's an interesting challenge for me to try and meld all these things together so i can make something that feels completely different from our world without losing its relatability, so im super glad you're appreciating it!!!

These are a lot of questions im gonna try and answer all at once, so i'll put it beneath the cut so it doesnt clog people's dashes LMAO

So firstly, the way i view communicators is,,, okay dont laugh too hard but i literally just visualize them as pip boys from fallout SKDNJWNDJS for some reason ive NEVER been able to shake that mental image, so ive just sorta accepted that into how i view them for hunger au. Personally, i see them as sort of a... mishmash of the bio-mechanical, something that isnt QUITE a direct part of them but is very much attached and integrated with their code. So its not like an organ, but an interface, i guess-- comms are how you can access an inventory, which is basically just hammerspace the way you've already described it, and where you can change your own surface code, and its also just... the way Players are able to interact with the worlds around them.

You also send messages with comms, but instead of there being anything like phone numbers, you're forming a direct link between your comm and someone else's!!! Not telepathic the way you've done with your worldbuilding, but because i see comms in this universe as something that latches onto and interacts with your code, its still a very important connection. Once connected, you can talk to that person all the time through your comm, even if they arent currently on your server-- although I do think that this only extends to when youre within the same server cluster.

As for how Players get them in the first place: for spawned Players, they just spawn in with them. Thats where the bio part comes in i think, and its a little hard for me to explain the way i view it, but its something like... i guess a bit like when moons form around planets. The code of an entity has a certain weight to it, and when a Player and their singleplayer world spawns in, the comm does with them, already attached and integrated with their code. For birthed Players, its very different-- they arent born with a comm, so they need a comm made, and then integrated with their code by a skilled code wrangler. It is VERY tricky to make a comm-- theyre incredibly fiddly, super hard to code without mistakes, and they take an extraordinarily long time to put together, let alone integrate properly with someone's code. Im not sure the word dangerous is the most accurate term here, but there are potentially harmful consequences if you integrate a poorly made comm with someone's code.

As for inventory transfer, i think you can bring stuff in your inventory from one server to another. This is mostly used for personal items or gifts, i think-- Player culture and attitude generally emphasizes fun, and whats more fun than giving someone something special that you made/got for them, or bringing a little memento with you from an old world you want to remember?

Theoretically, im sure there are Players who bring supplies or previously used tools with them to new worlds, but i think most Players like the excitement and challenge of starting fresh. It all depends on the person and the community culture surrounding that server if its a multiplayer. Cross-void trade is probably definitely a thing, but i dont think its necessarily very dangerous, just something more personal that you'd do for yourself or for a friend rather than any kind of business model.

As for someone being able to steal a comm, i dont think you can if its attached to the Player it belongs to, because at that point its basically a part of them. They can take them off, though, so someone could potentially steal it then, but unless theyre a skilled code wrangler and can crack into it, i dont think it would work for them or let them access that person's inventory. It would, however, be an incredibly effective (and cruel) way of controlling someone's actions and where they can go/who they can talk to.

This is why, ultimately, lost comms are a huge deal; losing your comm is literally losing access to pieces of yourself, your world, and your community. And while as a Watcher, Grian doesnt technically need a comm to access his code or enter other servers, he does still need it to keep in touch with other people and facilitate those community bonds, as well as keep an inventory. So yeah, Tango fretting over Grian losing his comm was very much warranted.

AAAAAAA THIS WAS VERY LONG i hope it was worth the wait!!!

now why did dazai say here he wanted to ask chuuya sth 🧐🧐...? WHAT WAS THE QUESTION SUPPOSED TO BE?! like I know it'd be probably another joke but what would he say hadn't he made that joke...

#also yk when you're scared of ur feelings / don't want the other person to know sth so you start saying sth and then stop mid sentence?#not bc u didn't realize what u were saying but bc there was some hope maybe you'd hear what you wanted to hear #or just that you wanted to live in the fake reality for a moment and imagine yourself asking that not necessarily wanting an answer #yeah that's what happened here 😍#no but tbh i think sth similar happened in ch 101 #but actually not similar ahhhh I'll make a post abt that #anyways WHAT WAS THE QUESTION SUPPOSED TO BE DAZAI I NEED TO KNOW 😭#and don't tell me it would've been a joke i listened to one too many skk songs today #soukoku #bsd #okay actually im not finished bc this is another time where Dazai purposefully acts like a person / character in love with the other #(character bc how he does that is stereotypical. like an archetype from a movie) (the Book thoughts in my head rn)#so yeah like you don't say such a think to a random person or a colleague like THE BONDDDD god #and the fact chuuya really gets scared....#remember in 15 when they first met and Dazai was like 'will you let me go... if I talk?' and then he said chuuya ought to drink more milk😐#imagine if adult!Dazai's question was meant to be 'have u been drinking milk?' with that blank annoying expression of his #bungou stray dogs

hi! ive been noticing your posts for a while now and ive been thinking about getting into rain world... would you mind telling me a bit about it? if not that's okay! im just curious cuz all these characters you've been drawing look really really good and it's kinda getting me hooked!

hmm hmmmm.... well what could i say... i'll talk about what i love about it because rain world is a wonderful game that i will never stop recommending to people, i think

i adore how "unfair" to usual game standards RW is. it makes it feel like there isn't really a point when you can call yourself a pro, when someone else can call you a noob after youve familiarized yourself with the controls. there isnt really an measurement of skill, sure you can look into some absolutely insane movement techs but the wonderful thing is that they are, at the end of it all, not important

i adore that the moment you accept the fact that this is just how this ecosystem works, you get to find such strange kind of joy out of it. i adore that the game is so loose about so many things including its lore because i can look at this "accept it when you die to become happier" thing and say that it could potentially mirror what the characters in the game (Ancients) should have figured out

i adore the religion in the game, the fact that it takes inspiration from Buddhism, i adore the karma symbols, what they mean, how they are written, how i can interpret them. the fact that i can look at this game and see something so very close to my own believes about life makes me so so happy

i adore the settings, the design, the vastness of the world both pictured and not, the impossibilities hiding in this world. the feeling of everything being so much it makes me want to cry everytime i take in how simply Giant the iterators are

everything is so big but small at the same time. the most breath-taking things become common and insignificant. the most insignificant things affect the most significant, holy ones, reducing objects and people of Unimaginable power and importance into nothing but desolate scrapheaps of nonsense. and yet these unnoteworthy scrapheaps circle back to being something precious but only to us. even though hes a wrackage, even though he is nothing more but trash now, we still love him because unimpressive things deserve to be loved too

i like to think that with some things in this game, something whispers "you're nothing. i love you. what happens to you affects me. you are nothing and i hope others will see the worth in you and love you too"

i adore the designs, i adore the glow of the overseer in the dark in the Monk campaign, i adore and fear the power of the rain, Moon's and Pebbles babbling and buzzing of their innards. i adore the glances we get of their cities, of the past, of the dead yet dear culture, whispers of history, the form of writing, even those stupid ads in Metropolis

i love hearing the opinions of both Moon and Pebbles. hearing from Suns makes me smile even though i want nothing else but to square up with them. thinking of No Significant Harassment and his easy humour even in such a place- his seemingly endless care, his struggles, anger, despair, mischievousness- the confusion and helplessness of something like them, a god brought to his knees- another glorious hard to comprehend impossibility

rain world is so wonderful and the more deeper you try to think about it and figure out what's happening where, why and how the more fun it is going to become

the best thing with RW you can honestly do is just dive in there and make your own opinions on all of these things. i hope u'll be able to take my wonder with you and use it to develop your own unique ideas of it!

n here's two fools vibin together

#Spot says stuff #rw #sorry i didnt get to answering ur ask yesterday! stuff got wild and i wanted to collect my thoughts and calm down before answering-#-so i could give you the most heartfelt answer i dare to muster on here #im glad you are sticking around and liking what ive been doing!! n i hope if u get RW and get to play it ull enjoy ur self #if ull want some tips n tricks u can shoot me a question again. ill be glad to answer n im sure the good fellows on here will be-#-willing to help out as well

If this isn't weird or anything, how did coming to find out you identified as a xenogender go for you? I guess, in other words, how did you know? What's it mean for you? (Oh god I really hope this doesn't sound like a bad faith question LOL)

This doesn’t sound bad faith at all, it’s kind of u to ask!!

So if I’m being honest, I don’t have a STRONG connection to xenogender stuff really? It’s kind of passive and cozy to think of myself being like, catgender and stuff bc my identity is a bit silly :P

For a while I’d see stuff about neopronouns and xenogender flags and my first thought was “This is kind of dumb” which is a little rude LOL, but a common first impression I think. As most things like this go, my own insecurities about being seen as cringeworthy reflected onto how other people were expressing themselves. I do have a lot of deep rooted insecurities about my place in the LGBT community (even though I’ve identified as nonbinary and pansexual for a good while), so seeing people on the internet using animal/object related pronouns made my brain go “Okay well I may be an embarrassing snowflake on the internet, but not like THAT though!”

Little did I know 😔

Honestly my mind kind of flipped when i found an artist I really looked up to had neopronouns in their bio, completely casually. I thought this was kind of punk rock, u know? And it made me think about myself and how fun it’d be to have my own silly pronouns and to play with gender identity in a fun way, because why not?

I don’t rly expect people to use my neopronouns (pika/star/chao/mewself hehehe) because I understand grammatically they can be a bit awkward to use, but the principle of them is just so fun to me!

Obviously in most situations irl I accept that I’m gonna be seen as a girl, and I don’t mind being a girl! Being called she is nice. When people close to me acknowledge my nonbinary identity and refer to me as they, that’s rad! And on the internet where people mostly see me as a cartoon creature through my icons and drawings, why not say my gender is Pikachu?

Basically what it means to me is that if gender is a construct that can be changed, why not get a little silly with it 😹 Mostly I hope that my openness to express myself in embarrassing ways encourages other ppl to do the same. Most things that are fun are also kind of embarrassing

#brainposting #hope this answered ur question haha it got a little long xD #i understand the general distaste towards xenogender stuff in the queer community but I also think like #why not u know?#i mean the answer to why not is ‘bc it’s embarrassing’ and ‘nobody will take u seriously’#but I’m gonna be weird for existing anyways so I might as well have some fun with it
