Happy STS! Let's talk about secrets. Do your characters or world have them? Are they considered a good thing or bad? Who in your cast is most likely to spill one? ♥️
Most of the team in Target Practice has a secret, although some bury them deeper than others. They're the kind of secrets that the keeper sees as bad, but morally speaking, are mostly just sad. The resident cinammon roll Gharial is the worst at keeping secrets; it weighs on his mind to be deceitful, although that isn't quite the same as withholding information. Swift, the mc, also isn't very good at keeping his own secrets. Yet another way he and I are alike 😆
Thank you for the ask Tori! 💜

How would the ROs feel about an Io who constantly brings home whatever sad abandoned animal they find in the street? They are Val's stray so no stray left behind 🥺 a house full of bedraggled rats
i feel as though i've answered this but I'm too lazy to go find it
Val: it's adorable and the animals are adorable but please Io we can't keep doing this 😭 Eventually is forced to establish Rule #3: Only One Animal At a Time
Ira: also has to beg Io to stop because they keep getting too attached to all the strays and can't keep up. Most likely to help Io turn this into a local Pet Distribution System and find the animals real homes
Klaus: increasingly baffled by how Io is finding these things. Seriously, are you a magnet? Did you put out an ad or something? Will let Io do whatever they want as long as it doesn't seem like it's becoming a Problem
Kat: hey have you found any lizards yet. she wants a lizard.
Connie: will not stop complaining about stray puppy #17 but is also visibly distressed and defensive when Io caves in and agrees to get rid of it. Let Connie Run a Rescue Shelter 2k24

HCs for Ace, Deuce, and Epel with a reader like Toa Qelsum from Court of Darkness? I just think the chaos that will ensue with another uptight mf would be fun to read about
CW:Mentions of raising a family in Epel's part
3k followers event Masterlist
Other Versions: Rio Voleri Reader Dia Akedia Reader Lance Ira Reader-coming soon
Tumblr media
God, you're such a stick in the mud. A high achiever, smart, and a strict rule follower? Barf. He's so happy that you were busy doing your…teleportation trick or whatever when he was hiding at the entrance ceremony cause he knows you would have ratted him out. He has no doubt you would've been sorted into Heartslaybul…for all the "wrong" reasons.
That said…there's something intriguing about the look behind your eyes. A look that screams, "I want to have fun! But no one has ever let me!" And Ace decides he's going to save you. By being the one to break you.
The rest of in game events proceed as normal, cause Ace will always be Ace. He still is an ass, he still causes trouble, he still makes you his best friend, still drops cryptic lines like "who knew you'd be my type, kidding ha ha!"
Is there any world, any mc, any Y/N, where Ace wouldn't fall for you? Be honest.
It's a "when did we start dating? Who the fuck knows they never even asked me out" kind of thing.
He's trying to break you so hard man. He's the devil in your ear, whispering about how wouldn't it just be…so fun if you stole that last slice of strawberry tart that Riddle thought he'd safely hidden in the freezer. He brings out the absolute worst in you…but sometimes you bring out the best in him.
Tumblr media
You're the honors student he's always wanted to be. You really get your connection when he asks you to start tutoring him. You're hard on him, but it only makes him strive to do better! He doesn't want to let his favorite teacher down!
Ace teases him for months about how he's such a simp for you, and gets all blushy anytime you tell him he did a good job. Deuce tells him to shut his fucking mouth every single time. Until one fateful day. The words are on the tip of his tongue, but they don't come forward. Instead, his mind is filled with thoughts of you, your big brain, your soft smile. He reflects on his best friend and favorite teacher. And then it's all over for poor Deuce.
Naturally he does the honors student thing. He avoids you. He's terrible at it, but he does his best. Until one day, you show up and berate him for neglecting his responsibilities, and your friendship. In the midst of it, he goes delinquent mode, and angrily confesses his love. At your shock, he apologizes and is sweet again. And how can you say no to sweet Deuce?
Deuce becomes much more of a snuggle bug when you're dating. You still tutor him, but now reward him with kisses when he gets answers right, and makeout and cuddle sessions when his grades improve. 
Under your tutelage, he makes the dean's list. And ends school as an honors student, just as he dreamed. His mom couldn't love you any more.
Tumblr media
You and Vil seem to have some sort of unspoken feud. Epel is living for it. Neither of you is ever outright hostile to the other, but the vibes…oof. It's like two very dominant personalities who should never have been left to try and work together. Epel is mad for you.
Lures you in with apple crumble 😉 
Once you're hooked onto him through your sweet tooth, he is able to express his admiration for you. He also has a dominant personality. But for you, he's willing to chill out a little. 
He's such an enabler. Oh sevens, anytime something about Vil pisses you off, he pushes you a step further. Sometimes, If Vil says something that hurts his pride a little bit, he'll stretch the truth, just to watch you go off on him. Sevens, he loves it. He can't help but feel so protected.
He takes you to visit his family with him…and is devastated when you're shocked by how kind and loving his family is. You deserve that love too! Meemaw unofficially adopts you as an extra grandkid, and makes sure that you get all the loving you have missed out on. Epel hopes you can trust him enough to have a family of your own one day, even if it is a small one.

You want an operator that gets the job done? You want an operator that's hassle free? You want an operator that literally no one will ever borrow from you? Well look no further.
The 4* supporter Roberta.
Let's talk about features.
Slow/stun: nope
Self heal: nope
Crowd control: nope
DPS: nope...but she's got 2(+1) block and you have a fucking Kroos that can sit behind her.
Let me tell you a story. One day a heavy defender started walking towards Roberta. I didn't give a shit and ignored it. It went away. The End.
You could remove the talent from this operator, cut her range in half, remove both her base skills, lower her ASPD by 30%, add +2 to her dp cost, redeploy her, and she'd perform as well as she did before.
This operator will outlive you, she will outlive your Cardigan.
Things this operator is old enough to do:
Vote: yes
Consent to sex: yes
Deploy an operator: she IS an operator
This supporter's got history. She's seen some shit. People have used her to hold lanes. People have used her to tank bombs. She's not going to judge you like a fucking Skalter would.
Interesting facts:
Her goggles' color is gray, but her coat's color is grey.
In the owner's manual, usage of her summons is listed as "optional."
When this supporter was unveiled four months ago, she caused all 275k Arknights_EN followers to spontaneously yawn. The resulting abrupt change in metrics on Twitter's homepage caused a partial collapse of the site. Four users were mistakenly banned for being bots. The event is chronicled in the documentary "Bored to Death: The Story of Roberta"
You wanna know more? Great, I printed out a picture of her and had it fill out a Facebook survey.
Favorite food: spaghetti
Favorite tv show: Alf
Favorite band: tie between Bush and the Gin Blossoms
This operator is as practical as a Roth IRA. She's as middle-of-the-road as the rat king during his last Silver Alert. She's as utilitarian as a member of a church of the deep whose scripture is based entirely on water bills.
When I checked Gamepress for this operator, I found a single paragraph that said, "It's Roberta. She's fine."
Let's face the facts, this operator isn't going to win any tierlists, but neither are you. Stop lying to yourself and stop lying to your wife. This isn't the defender you want, it's the defender you deserve: The 4* supporter Roberta.

What i think Nevermore characters are as animals
Lenore- Raven
Annabel- Dove (white floofy cat is also acceptable but only if it’s being a dumbass, nothing to do with her character, she just reminds me of a cat that hates everyone and refuses to let anyone pet them, except for one special person)
Pluto- Black cat
Duke- Raccoon (based on vibes)
Berenice: Bat
Eulalie: Ferret (vibes) or an elephant or Koi fish, because of her Spectre 
Prospero: Rat
Ada: Possum (vibes) or a weasel because weasels are associated with banshees sometimes apparently 
Morella: Bunny (vibes) or perhaps a white butterfly, as they were thought to hold the souls of dead children and it was illegal to kill them until the 1600s in Ireland, since Morella died the youngest out of all the main cast (19-21 I think??)
Theo: Deer or Owl or Fox (All vibes we know nothing bout my guy)
Ira- Peacock (vibes)
Lucille and Thaddeus- Some kind of birds of prey (vibes)

The Notamafia Commission
There are Five Families in Notamafia, each controlling their own neighborhood Midtown Notamafia has the biggest hotels, the racing track, swankiest nightclubs, and the most valuable rackets in town. One Family controls it - The Morettis, tough sons of bitches. Don Emilio Moretti is an honorable man, but if you cross him once, you're a dead man. Then, there's the Peraltas, from Cocthills. Whatever you do, don't bring up Don Vittorio Peralta's height. As for Cocthills – it's pretty ritzi, but watch out near the waterfront. If you had a dime for every cheap hotel, brothel or sleazy clipjoint, you'd be a very wealthy man. Look into the face of a Sciandra, and you'll see one thing - trouble. You don't wanna run into them on a dark night in their Downtown Heights stronghold. At first the place looks pretty quiet, all little shops and fancy parks - but watch out. Never pay the Sciandras a visit if you're ill prepared. There's rumours about Don Estefano Sciandra having... cannibalistic tastes.
Lower Notamafia is one of the city's toughest neighborhoods, controlled by the Gattos. They ain't that rich - a few gambling clubs and brothels, plus some weapons. Lower Notamafia is a sewer, full of burned-down tenements and empty warehousees. The railyards are a rats' nest of scumbags and late night wheeling and dealing. Don't underestimate Don Ira Gatto, though. He might look old and frail, but there's a reason why he's still in charge.
Finally, there's the Knolastnames - the only family led by Imp Dons from their humble beginnings in the Docks. Until recently, they had some financial troubles, which the other Families attribute to its... poor management. There's rumors that the consigliere, Alessio, is the one truly in charge. The Commision would certainly prefer him in that role rather than Don Crimson.
Notamafia Town has many criminal gangs and organizations, but these five are the big fish—literally in four cases.

Can I have "been some bad shit, I should be a sad bitch. But who would have thought it would turn me into a savage." Personality kinda reader with Tommy Shelby, and him being a simp. Because even the gangster of all gangsters sometimes needs girl power and feminine touch in his schemes. I blame SK for robbing us from such trope.
Ah so an Eva type of gal.
Self-employed
Tumblr media
You held your head high, dressed to kill and armed to the teeth.
He noticed your confidence first.
By the time he met you he knew you were the one for him.
Didn’t matter that he had Grace, didn’t matter that she was right there when you walked into the snug like a queen entering her court.
You call yourself a self-employed woman, you do a bit of espionage, a killing here or there and Grace Burgess had been so incompetent that you just had to intervene.
“She killed an IRA man in broad daylight, she uses her real identity and meets up with Inspector Campbell where everyone can see them.” You had said when he asked why. “I hate incompetence, Shelby.”
Oh, yes, she was the one.
From that moment forward, he decides to pursue you and leave the lying rat in the dust.
You were a spy for the Allied Powers, you had been in Paris pretending to be someone important’s secretary and now you just wanted to retire in peace in your grimy home.
But you were bored with peace, so bored that you decide to tail the barmaid who lives across from you. It took you three days to figure her out and the next morning you’d broken into the Campbell’s office to steal her files.
He needed people like that in his gang, Shelby Brothers Limited needed a professional secretary and you fit the bill.
So, when Billy Kimber shows up to give them their betting license, you flirt with him, you make him take you to his big house in the country and drug him so an old friend of yours who owes something can tap his telephone line.
“Burgess tipped him off, Kimber’s coming tomorrow morning, Garrison Lane.” You tell him as the two of you give into that magnetism that’s been pushing you together since July.
You want him, he wants you.
You tell yourself that when you go against his orders and pick out Kimber’s men like flies with the American rifle you’d kept as a souvenir from the war.
“You could’ve gotten yourself killed, love.” He tells you at the Garrison that night.
“Says the man who got shot.”

I don't understand the mentality whereby real-world atrocities are okay so long as they're being committed against the 'right' people. Imperial Japan committed numerous shocking atrocities during its expansion and decline- does that mean dropping firebombs and atomic bombs on civilians is okay? Of course not. Nazi Germany was the most nightmarish regime in human history (no mean feat) and responsible for systematic genocides- does that make the Allied war crimes Super Neat? Of course not. Even when the response is overwhelmingly worse, such as the United States' ongoing war against virtually everyone everywhere entered its current phase after a terrible act of terror that killed thousands of civilians. In response, millions have died and millions more have been displaced. Disproportionate in the extreme, and proof of the shameless exercise of imperial power at the core of US policy, but it doesn't make the 9/11 attacks right and just. Attacking civilians, in peace (cops, all too frequently) or as war crimes is- shocking to some, apparently -never 'right'.
Israel is a settler-colonial state whose ongoing occupation of, apartheid with, and genocide against (through violence and displacement as well as cultural erasure) Palestine and Palestinians is horrific and needs to end. Hostage-taking and exchange is morally dubious at best, but has lots of historic precedent, and I'm not prepared to categorically denounce it provided certain humanitarian standards are met. They weren't, in the case of Hamas' attack last year, at least not always. And the deliberate targeting of civillians is never, never justified. Not when the United States does it, not when Israel does it, not even when the IRA or Hamas does it.
People have the right to fight for their liberty, to resist genocide. But if the plan to poison 6 million Germans after WWII was immoral, so is attacking a concert and flinging frag grenades into crowds. I can certainly understand why someone would feel driven to that sort of thing, but I can never cheer for their actions, and instead mourn the innocent dead, in their hundreds or in their millions. Palestinians must be free. Israel, as an apartheid state, cannot continue. But cheering for the slaughter of innocents... I just don't have that in me.
And I certainly don't like the way antisemitism has crept out of its rat holes among the left. Analyze your feelings and mentally sever the policies of the state of Israel from the idea of 'Jewishness'- doing otherwise falls into the traps of ethno-nationalists in Israel and all across the west. Conflating the two is what Likud wants, and it's also what eschaton-obsessed Christian fundamentalists want, and it's even what white supremacists and neo-Nazis want. Don't fall for it.

What are your OCs' favorite weapons or fighting styles? What weapons would they want to learn how to use, either for efficiency or just because they think it's cool?
Marco: prefers to sit behind the scenes and control his robots, he should probably learn at least some self-defense honestly lol
Salacia: prefers a shield and her control over water, can also use a polearm, xiphos, and bow and arrow, she'd love to learn some Atlantean fighting styles for Tuatlall <3333
Tuatlall: prefers magic, isn't much of a fan of physical combat
L'Harann: has superpowers (eye lasers best!!!) but is also good with her fists without them, she'd probably do well learning kickboxing
Experiment 929: likes to use her newfound superstrength to throw things like cars

Megitsune: prefers fighting with dual-swords and jujutsu
Eoland: doesn't usually need to fight beyond using her superspeed, one punch at mach-2 is plenty for most people lol
Barbara: same as Eoland, she'll also do a few rounds of normal-speed boxing with Eden and Ira
Hartley: prefers to use her flute to hypnotize people to do what she needs them to or uses her robotic rats, she can throw a solid punch if she needs to but she could use some self-defense lessons also
Yǔqí: tries not to fight at all but will try to distract whatever hero is trying to stop her while her snakes finish what they need to do and make their escape
Eden: the police on Earth-63 don't really use weapons but she's a very good boxer, she'd love to learn karate as well
Ira: is also a very good boxer and he practices tai chi
Cisca: very much does not consider herself a fighter both before and after gaining her powers, though she's not opposed to using her powers to defend herself and her friends
Savitar: see Barbara
Mallorie: SPEED! FORCE! SWORDS!!!
Kal: he's literally Superman lol
Ricki: prefers her escrima sticks but is also proficient with a bo-staff, batarangs/birdarangs, shuriken, and practices kungfu, judo, taekwondo, and aikido, she'd love to have a better mastery of sword fighting
Jessie: prefers knives, particularly favors her kris, kunai, and cinquedea (and of course, the All Blades), she's also proficient with batarangs/birdarangs, shuriken, and practices muay thai, judo, and taekkyeon - although outlawed on all of Earth-63, she's also very good with projectile weapons including guns (where she got the guns, she'll never tell), she'd like to get better at archery
Tiff: prefers her bo-staff but is also proficient with batarangs/birdarangs, shuriken, and practices kendo (she was on her high school team), judo, and aikido, she'd like to get better with knives (she will die before she asks Jessie for help tho lol)
Dami: prefers their katana, is also proficient with knives, a bo-staff, batarangs/birdarangs, shuriken, and is absolutely not opposed to biting people, she also practices kungfu and muay thai and would like to learn more martial art disciplines
Gabi: prefers to turn into a tiger but her other go-to animals are gorilla, snake, bat, cat, dog, or octopus, she'd like to see if she can turn into extinct or alien animals
Laska: prefers her bow and arrow, would like to learn how to fight at close range
Piper: prefers to use her sound control for speed and defense, she'd love to learn how to use it on the offensive
Lara: practices hapkido, would like to learn other martial arts
Jisoo: prefers to use the ice side of her powers, she feels like the fire side is too dangerous but she'd definitely like to learn how to better control it
Alex: practiced qin na and fenced in high school and college
Dan: practices shuai jiao, would love to learn how to use some ancient greek weaponry
Amara: prefers her bow and arrow and fire powers, practices taekwondo, would like to get better with a sword or spear
Mendel: doesn't have any formal training but his punches are still fairly powerful and he'll also bite, he's trying desperately to get some sort of training lol

do you have any recommendations for specific this american life episodes?
hello anon sorry for the delay. today's been a little crazy lol
you're in luck because I did actually make a recommendation list a while ago, but I should add some more episodes here that I've listened to since then and really enjoyed:
801: Must Be Rats on the Brain (funny rat narration going on here but if you listen to this as your first-ever TAL episode it might give you weird expectations for what the show is like.
797: What I Was Thinking As We Were Sinking
757: The Ghost in the Machine (this one's really interesting because it features an AI-coauthored essay that came out before chatGPT was released to the public, and the essay's author recently released a follow-up piece where she talks about the process of writing that piece and how the magic is gone now when she tries to use the publicly available versions of GPT-3.)
755: The Convert
754: Spark Bird (the final segment of this one is SO fucking funny lol. apparently a bunch of listeners got mad and said it was the most fucked up perverse thing they've ever heard on the radio but noelle and I were dying because we do literally the same thing but instead of birdly we have a guy called mr. quarterpounder. although now we give birdly a place in the personal canon as well. definitely listen to this one.)
752: An Invitation to Tea
751: Audience of One
740: There, I Fixed It
218: Act V
208: Office Politics
204: 81 Words
but as a general rule I have yet to be disappointed or bored by an episode of this show tbh. it's like the perfect format for me: a different topic every week but presented in a way that's consistently engaging, so I get to have my cake (novelty) and eat it too (quality). even now that I'm making my way back through their archives and some of these shows aired over 20 years ago... still good! and I'm still the number one ira glass groupie

This guy? This dude right here? Sure, he looks like a bog standard action protagonist, but his secret is he is the saddest most pathetic loser in a comic universe full of half-drowned rats competing for that title. Oh yes, he starts out yelling at people and shoving their faces in cakes (normal police behavior?) but just you wait because he’s about to start hallucinating ghosts and apologizing to stray dogs for not being able to take them all home. One time a supervillain tried to imitate him and his friends knew it was suspicious because he seemed happy and well-adjusted. The studio made a whole feature-length movie about him and decided the best way to establish his character was to show him sitting on the floor eating whipped cream out of the can for dinner. This is a man who has received beatdowns from the CIA, the IRA, chthonic deities, a tech bro, his therapist, a librarian, some Disney princesses, a cat dad, and his own thought bubbles. If there’s crime happening in Saint Petersburg you can count on this guy to show up and start hallucinating a bunch of eels or evil versions of himself or something. Did that help? Oh god, please say that helped. He really needs a win.
