at the family function - twisted wonderland headcanons

A/N: Cleaning out my drafts :3

Content warnings!: - i'm black so i'll be going off of what happens at my family events - these are headcanons and not serious ones at that, pls dont get mad - these aren't in order (im forcing u to read lol)

Friendly reminder: I am black and searching for moots, specifically black but not exclusively <3

Jack Howl: - the cousin that all the younger cousins want to see - doesn't really like children but still enjoys seeing his family

Lilia Vanrouge: - the grandpa who sits in the same spot every reunion - has told you the same story a million GAJILLION different stories - D1 instigator

Idia Shroud: - hides himself in the room farthest from all the commotion - brings his consoles to every get-together

Epel Felmier: - the cousin who lives 2hrs away - always asking those dumbass superstitious questions abt the city - brings fruits/veggies from his family farm

Rook Hunt: - creepy ass unc, NO BODY wanna play with him - genuinely a good guy once you get to know him - dont ask "how did u and auntie (vil) fall in meet?" because he's gonna give u the strangest love story ever

Silver Vanrouge: - adopted son of granpa - hes NEVER awake when u need him - eats, chats a bit, and joins idia so he can fall asleep - don't know if he's an uncle technically but he's family now so 🤷🏾‍♀️

Cater Diamond: - cousin who's always running errands for somebody, his sisters especially - has plates made for him because he's too busy - always a part of the conversation tho

Ace Trappola: - fun cousin!!! - takes the lil kids outside to play when asked

Malleus Draconia: - also adopted son of lilia - he doesn't leave his room often so they forget he's even there - when he does come down, everyone is like "unc, you've been here?!" - very awkward but enjoys the conversation and card games

Deuce Spade: - fun cousin #2!!!!! - usually on cousin-duty - was supposed to bring the plates but forgot

Jamil Viper: - the auntie in the kitchen - like cater, he's always busy doing something - the family member who asks abt school and expects a real answer

Vil Schoenheit: - amazing gorgeous kind respectable aunt married to some guy (rook) - she arrives an hour early to help trey cook and jamil set everything in place - kinda strict about the tidiness of everyone but becomes lax after eating (got the itis)

Azul Ashengrotto: - the cousin you'd get compared to ("why cant you be more like azul?") - everybody owes or owed him some money at some point - hides all his old photos somewhere in the house

Ortho Shroud: - the little cousin - begs idia to drive him to grandpappy lilia's

Sebek Zigvolt: - loud asf like u can hear his conversations clearly - also on cousin duty - tracks mud in the house and gets told off by jamil

Kalim Al-Asim: - the cousin with 511 siblings

Ruggie Bucchi: - helps in the kitchen so he'll be the first one to make some plates - afterwards ruggie eats on the porch in a rocking chair

Trey Clover: - main cook/chef - unc who's always getting roasted for his hairline (barber fucked him up)

Leona Kingscholar: - 50/50 unc, sometimes he'll be in a good mood and sometimes he wont - arrives on time and gets out of his car 20 mins later (he was sleep) - tells those kids "AYE YALL STOP ALL THAT RUNNIN AROUND" - sat with ruggie on the porch and he just randomly got up and started walking down the street - sometimes forced to eat at the kids table because he wont eat his own veggies at his grown age

Jade Leech: - brought the drinks - brought cards and dice to play with azul

Floyd Leech: - brought soda (in spite of Jade) - brought monopoly instead - he got bored in the middle of monopoly so he just started chasing people for entertainment

Riddle Rosehearts: - the one who organizes most of the reunions - was FURIOUS at deuce for forgetting to bring the plates but cater went out and bought them - got chased by Floyd and collared his ass

ts was kinda ass, my bad, i just want likes and comments cuz i dont have many headcanons of my own

anyways u guys should totally ask me abt my twst ocs (not yuusona) so i can blab abt them <3/hj

having thoughts about what makes an interesting idol rhythm game

#i can expand upon it but i think its mostly like. what's the gimmick it's using and how is it executing it #like enstars you have the 3d mvs that you can put whoever you want in and have different outfits to put them in #d4dj you have the dj booth layout that you play with and it utilizes it very well #hypmic is a rap based game entirely and also utilizes record scratching imagery in its gameplay #and then proseka and bandori. proseka's gimmick is very obviously like vocaloids #but in the game play its trying to be too many things and failing at all of them #they have some 3d mvs but the layout of the beat maps makes them like #not really. something i notice when i played it. bc the way they have the map layout set up it kinda grays out the video #which means you might as well not have it on. for enstars the lanes are entirely transparent #so you can see the mv clearly as you play if you have 3d mv on u know #and then like. idk the proseka gameplay just feels brutal.#mostly because it times when you lift off the hold notes and literally no other game does this #even games that use goods as combo breakers like hypmic dont fucking do that #also i do appreciate the flick notes in hypmic being just. flick whereever feels natural #helps a lot while playing to just flick whichever way you want #but anyway yeah i think proseka is relying too much on the vocaloid schtick and people just ignore the atrocious game play #like d4dj does straight lane better. hypmic and enstars are both ring lanes that do their gimmicks well #i do not like proseka can u tell #i didnt play enough bandori to really tell u whats going on there but i did not like the layout for their game #and its made by the same people who make proseka so like. no hope for me getting into it #anyway #shay speaks

im struggling w a new addition to the irl friend group like i went to hang the other night, me and one of my best friends r talking about death note bc we both love it, this person starts in about how its stupid and unrealistic and they couldnt finish it. i argued about it for 5 minutes and got them to back down to ‘well *i* didnt like it’. im like look. ive been in the fucking internet discourse trenches for a decade. people have made podcasts and dissertations about the online circles ive run in. i have been blocked by more people than i can count. there is a reason i do not discuss fandom bullshit with my irls. do not test me lmfao

#YES I AM SOUNDING LIKE A CRINGE EDGELORD HERE #mind you this person has been continually making what i feel are snide rude comments #that feel mildly insulting. a lot #and ive been trying to give benefit of the doubt but then this #like it very clearly (person uses it/its pronouns) has that Nerd Superiorty Complex thing going on #well unfortunately two can play at this game and i can drop the people pleasing bullshit real fast when i want to #dont make me want to pls

was going through the forums last night bc i like to see what's up when update drops and there was a surprising amount of complaining. someone asked why the forums always seem so mad and someone replied "because happy people aren't on the forums" and suddenly everything made sense

#the forums are so mad all the time i dont even know why they still play the game. they clearly hate it #i havent really seen anyone complain about the update other than ''wow this is useless''#yes it is. it's just something to do afk if you want it. and new pet yay #oh and complaints about the pet requirements for taming 60 being BS and i do agree with that. but it's clearly supposed to be endgame #so like.. eh idk. the only one i think is TRULY unreasonable is the slug at just taming 52 that's crazy #i think itd be better to donate ANY of the 10 in your own order to save the hardest For You for last and still reward you along the way #would help the whole ironman issue too...#chat #sb

No offense, but kinda find it funny how people keep acting like if you boycott Hogwarts Legacy for being antisemitic and cause of each purchase putting money in the terf queens pockets, then you must boycott a-lot of other stuff cause now they decided they care about the bad stuff that happens behind the stuff they list, but like....a-lot of the stuff they list people often need to use in daily life’s, but uh, last I checked, you don’t need to waste 70 dollars on a game- that’s just a you thing at that point.

#anti hogwarts legacy #like last i checked it really doesnt take much to not waste 70 dollars like that #but these people act like they'll die if they dont get the game or if they dont play it #like 'everything is bad under capitialism' or whatever the UK equivment of that is #yeah but guess what? buying hogwarts legacy isnt nesseccery to your survival #as much as you want it to be clearly

Persona romance routes are all pretty bad but damn they really hit rock bottom with p3p femc route like the misogyny is very blatant and it’s almost hilarious like look at the Shinjiro romance. When you do his social link he’s like very clearly respectful of Kotone as a leader and explicitly says stuff like "oh yeah you’re clearly the best fighter we have, I don’t really know much about fighting like you do, I hope I’m not dragging you down, you’re doing a good job as leader just remember to take care of yourself, everyone looks up to you I know you can rely on them" etc. like he has faith in her leading abilities. But then when you romance him he’s like got dialogue like "bwah bluh i gotta look after you because you’re a GIRL and you need to stick by me, a big strong MAN so you don’t get hurt" and "don’t wear that revealing outfit in front of other guys 👺" and it’s like. Does he respect her or not and also like it doesn’t make sense for him to look down on her for being a girl cuz he literally has never not been led by a girl leader during his time in sees and Mitsuru in particular really has her shit together when it comes to being responsible and a good fighter and she’s always known the most about Tartarus

It’s also like. Idk maybe its just me I’m not a girl so FUCK IF I KNOW but to me the appeal of romancing Shinji is the fact that he’s sweet and sensitive and gentle and has respect for you despite the fact that he acts all scary. That’s like, what made me like this character in the first place. But the writers seem to think what women want is for a BIG STRONG MAN to protect them because they are just DELICATE WOMEN who are inferior in every way it’s like. Shut upppp thanks

#persona #persona 3 #shinjiro aragaki #this is soooooooo obviously not the only romance route that sucks in this game yall know which one im referring to 🤨#and i actually tend to think of the shinji romance as the best one in the series cuz at least his confession scene is the only unique one #that really highlights who he is as a character and goes with the story #but ughh just idk its so annoying how the writers cant decide if hes sexist or not its really weird and its like #really shows how poorly the writers think of women playing their game its like all the romance options are trash and then your boyfriend is #sexist to you and its so clearly done in a way thats supposed to be romantic which is. ew #like idk if my partner was like talking about how i need to stay close to them because im a weak girl and they are strong man #especially when im literally the leader of the team and have been doing perfectly fine thus far and am clearly the strongest here #id simply run him over with a bulldozer #and its like this will all the guys in this game its like girl shut up and eat glass #meanwhile when youre a male protagonist your gf will kiss your ass to the point its infuriating #and their character arcs can never be too grand cuz then they might not wanna fuck you if they realize they have worth #uh sorry my brain is all over the place basically i hate persona romances lol and i hate how they wrote shinji in his #like dammit i dont want him cuz hes gonna protect me like a man i want him cuz he isnt great at fighting and prefers cooking and puppy dogs #and has respect for me and trusts my judgement and asks me to talk about my life and interests and smiles sweetly #but god forbid a woman in this series be respected i guess

look i know i've said it before but sony's ps peter parker truly is the best peter parker. he's such a sweetheart and his game really balances the scrungy little guy and genius aspects of his character perfectly. the dude spends most of the game couch surfing because he gets evicted from his apartment. he leaves tony stark on read. he has zero dollars to his name because he works for doc oc pursuing projects that have the chance of making a real difference to people's lives and not working for oscorp even tho he could get a job there in a heart beat. he's subscribed to j. jonah jamison's podcast and has his suit autoplay each episode. he gets miles a job at f.e.a.s.t after his dad dies because he knows the grief of losing a parent so acutely and knows he needs something to channel that into. and i'm not very far into the miles morales game but even tho he's not even there for most of it, you can tell he's loving having miles as a partner in spider crimes. he's been spider-man alone for 8 years and has clearly just jumped into having someone to mentor. he gives him a suit with knee and elbow pads which is the cutest thing ever. he sets up training sims while he's away to keep up with miles' training and fills them with puns and does silly vulture impressions during the final stage. like how can you not love him? he is the superior peter parker and that's a hill i'll die on.

my beloved 💖

#og face supremacy #justice for john bubniak #and like yes #i know that games and movies and two fundamentally different mediums but i dont care #this version of peter/spidey is the best adaptation #i've seen all the movies and played the games and this is my conclusion #like the conclusion of the first game? heartbreaking #seeing him cry over octavius' betrayal broke me #his final few lines about how he was everything he wanted to be and how he worshipped him? end me #peak storytelling #yuri lowenthal does such an incredible performance #and like looking at just miles morales you could argue pete's been reduced to quips but like that's how he clearly is from miles' pov yk?#of course he's going to be unerringly positive and upbeat as a mentor #plus we've already seen his serious and heartfelt moments so we know it's there #i just have so many thoughts about these games and the details in them #.txt #marvel #sony ps spider man

i love the idea of curioso sitting on the couch watching cartoons and him singing from happiness is too cute 🤧

thank youu for gracing this niche fandom with your writing! ❤️

Thank *you*! I'm glad you're enjoying the story still..! <3

I can't wait for Curioso's past to come up, I have some personal headcanons + additions I've added to it that I'm dying to get to. Time and patience, thouuugh....

#ask #anonymous #curioso #his soul #i'm about to overshare in the tags so bare with me #i'm feeling 50/50 on the story so far cause i'm *kind of * accomplishing what i want to #but not quite???#i'm afraid how long this story is gonna drag out just cause i WANT to get to things but i also have a terrible habit of slowburning #like. there will definitely be romance but i kind of want the detective and curioso to form a bond and trust before then #and being my first x reader story i dont know how im handling that because i've never really...read them. lol.#im actually not huge on self inserts at all #it was initially just going to be a detective x curioso fic but i didnt really want to *make* a character for the detective #i kind of wanted it to be like playing a hidden object game. you're inserted *as* a detective who is clearly an established person #but you're still playing the game and see things in your point of view #if that makes sense???#argghhhh anyway i just wanna pick things up and get to Things but also wanna Take Our Time #thank you so much for reading though!!! curioso and cartoons just seems right to me

Can someone please tell me literally all of the spoilers about the new Harry Potter game as possible, no matter how small, as I would like to make a big post full of as many spoilers as possible and post it fucking everywhere bc if people tell me to "let people enjoy things" (aka let people play the new hp game without judging them) then I should also be allowed to do what I enjoy (spoiling important plot points about terrible video games)

#Harry Potter #Hogwarts legacy #jk rowling #jk rowling is a terf #if you disagree and wanna get mad st me over this #then cry me a river #build a bridge #and get over it #insult me #call me slurs #i dont fuckin care #bc my right ans the rights of others to exist safely trumps your desire to play a video game #have you noticed how antisemitic hate crimes are on the rise?#and how donald trump said he supports a genocide of transgender people?#but cry all you want about your video game #because clearly that outweighs the molotovs being thrown st synagogues #and the fact that i do not feel safe presenting openly queer in a liberal state

#mobile #(people who dont like sonic colors clearly never played the ds version which is just the better version in every way)#(better controls an entire side story questline cameos from all his pals that are super fun & challenging boss fights)#(tons of puns & gr8 character moments and that achievement room where u can listen to the playlist whenever u want)#(i dont usually make the rules but i will make this one)#(anyways i gotta go shower & do some stuff AFK but this has been my controversial hot take no.75556 ahahaaaahhh)#⸨ * ooc ⸩ — he was never actually called a rodent in the games but yknow .

so when i got God of War (2018) I was under the impression that it was about a fraught father son relationship where the journey together forces them to understand each other

but it turns out its about a father and son who just straight up hate each other, and the journey together forces them to love each other but only because of forced characterization

#im being more than a touch dismissive but woof was the writing... not great #i think im just spoiled on games with good narrative pacing #cant get over the scene where kratos listens to the vision atreus talk about how much he wishes dad had died instead of mom #and then just yells at his son for waking him up #and then his son just yells at him for abandoning him #and then literally two seconds later they're cheerfully trying to figure out the game puzzle #and they just. dont talk about the vision ever #like its SO awkwardly paced #the game clearly WANTS some of these conversations to Hit and have Emotional Resonance #but they're all smooshed in and given no weight? there's no lasting effect?#i wish i had better words to describe that problem im feeling lmao #its like the narrative design team was in a different building from the level design team and the final production had to splice together #and the voice actors (specifically the actor playing the kid!) had to read these emotionally dissonant lines??#like i GOT to imagine the VO director had him lump read all the 'yelling' lines in one go and the 'normal' lines in another #because there was NO emotional crossover of 'i was just yelling at my dad and im still a little pent up but im calming down'#like each conversation just felt so out of sync with the preceding ones #anyway i should stop ranting now lol unless anyone wants to jump in

man Christmas is great except for that my brother comes home from school and spends every single night screaming at his computer about how fucking stupid his video game is, and yet somehow, it's never stupid enough to stop playing? it's literally been hours and he won't shut up. I was upstairs in the bathroom with the water running and it still sounded like he was screaming right in my ear. and as I was writing this, he left (yet another) hole in the wall, broke the chair we've had for quite literally as long as I can remember and never had a problem with, and fucked up the pet gate that keeps the dogs from murdering annoying my cat. this!!! is not!!! normal!!!!!! it's not fucking normal!!!!! there is nothing normal about this!!!!! how does he not understand how fucked up he is????? does he not understand that this is not healthy????? my poor dogs are fucking terrified!!! they've been hiding under the beds upstairs this whole time!!!!! he even scared my kitten!!!! my kitten grew up with this!!!! he's practically unscarable!!!!! he was fucking scared!!!! what the fuck!!!!!!

#and then he acts shocked when his siper expensive headsets or mice break #because clearly!!! it's the manufacturer's problem!!!!#it couldn't possibly be from the sheer number of times he's slammed his mouse against his desk or thrown his headset at the ground!!!!!#if i had a resident like this at work they would be SCRAMBLING to get them on antipsychotics #and he just!!!! does this!!!!!#it's exhausting!!!!!#stop playing fucking video games if you're gonna be like this!!!!#ughhhh #anyways he's throwing a bitch fit in his room so im gonna take this nice moment of reprieve to go run on the treadmill #and finish The Essex Serpent so i can finally get rid of Apple TV #except i dont really want to finish it because i hate that will gets with cora when he has a perfectly good wife and family #and im not emotionally prepared for stella to die just to get replaced #(which is what i think happens?)

so night of my birthday, monday night, after having dinner with my parents, i went to a wine bar to have a glass or two by myself. i ended up sitting at the bar rather than at a table bc it was unclear when or if i would be served if i just sat at a table. enter, of course, man asking if he could sit in empty seat next to me. we had good conversation about wine and soccer and he seemed nice enough. as i was getting ready to head out, he offered sharing a bottle of wine with me that he had back at his place. that makes me put my guards up, but when i turn it down, he backs off. we do swap numbers at the end bc why not, i enjoyed his company and would enjoy hanging out with him.

the next day he texts me about this tragic french film he watched over the bottle of wine he'd offered to share with me the night before (not that i was expecting him to save it for me, but in hindsight feels a little, hmm, like look what you missed out on? idk maybe im reading too much into this). he also invites me to a tasting and dinner thursday night. i see these messages while at a sports game with a friend. i get back home after midnight. i sleep in til noon the next day, i have an hour to eat and get ready for work, im at work til 10pm, and im knocked out again once im home. today i get my period and have terrible cramps all day and only manage working two hours before going home to collapse in bed. for the past two days i keep remembering at bad times that i need to respond to him to let him know its not gonna happen but thanks for the invite. ultimately i forget and it doesn't happen.

10pm thursday night he texts again saying "at least tell me to go fuck my self!" with three of the monkey hiding his face emojis. i responded apologizing for not replying, but also clarifying why i hadn't and explaining that i am notoriously bad at responding.

honestly, i know why i acted the way i did but i don't know if that makes me in the right. he did text me about specific time sensitive plans, that i read as 'hey join if you're free, if not its fine' but apparently that wasn't the vibe, and i try really hard when its time sensitive to respond. but to send such a harsh text after only having chatted one night at a wine bar (where honestly i'd have preferred to just have been alone) and texting me low key last minute plans after i know i told him i work retail nights...

idk im torn between feeling like my slow response rate will be keeping me single, and feeling like he's interested and im not so much and that's not a bad thing, and maybe if he hadn't responded so strongly (sorry the monkey emojis don't soften the message as much as you'd like) we could've gotten along more. but now im on edge and don't wanna talk to him anymore. i dont want to feel like there's expectations or pressure.

ugh there's many very good reasons the only men i like are fictional or completely unavailable

#madeleine parle #dating i guess??#open to thoughts and opinions on whether im right to feel hesitant #or thoughts on text response expectations #would love other opinions #whatever the opinions are this whatever this was is definitely done now #hes clearly more interested than me and i dont want to play these games #i wonder if men know they are rivaling how much i revel in my alone time when they ask for my number

final verdict on caves of qud is this thing passed away from early access syndrome at least 2 years ago

#its like a very fun little game to do a couple runs in but the lack of gameplay depth really starts to chug along after a certain point #i know thats what people love in roguelites these days but its nawt for me i want to be thrown to the beasts #this is more of a puzzle ot figure out how to get a good starting character and once you do its just very...#not easy per se because you can choose to a degree how much danger to put yourself in but it feels very laccking in direction #its just got gamer syndrome its just so effortless in its assumption that simply playing a video game is AWESOME and COOL #its mean to compare it to isaac but well. its not as good #id say i love the dwarf fortress aesthetic choices but they literally took those out in later versions so.#i dont know not a bad game by any means but also really failing to be the thing it clearly wants to evoke
