Its not perfect, but its the best that I can do-Magnus Burnsides
From January 8th to June 10th of 2022, I hand embordered my very own IPRE badge.
The Adventure Zone is something very important to me and holds a very special place in my heart, and I've always wanted my own badge, but have never been able to get one, ether official or fan made, so when I got a bunch of sewing/embroidery stuff for Christmas 2021, I decided to make one of my own. This was my first big embroidery project since i was about 14 (I made my brother a small Batman symbol pillow for Christmas) but watching videos plus already having skills in sewing made the project run pretty smoothly.
The project itself only took about three weeks, but due to burnout, my mental heath drooping due to tragedy, and running out of the thread for the background, I had to take a brake from January 13th to March 1st, then from March 11th to June 6.
I was very proud of how it turned out, I sewed it to iron on patch and put it on my messenger bag.
How do you like it?

so many signs
Tumblr media
so i had this thing in the back of my mind that i wanted to share a little bit about, because i think it’s highlights a little bit of karlie’s easter egging prowess
so as many of you know, i have had a certain piece of jewelry identification that’s been top of mind for awhile. a mysterious (and hilarious) evil eye necklace that karlie first wore on her birthday last year, august 3rd, 2022:
Tumblr media
it took a long while to identify but with the help of @kwyw and @corneliastvendor and input from many more, we diligently settled upon a match with the brand Mejuri.
so
…i dunno if you remember, but back at the beginning of the year @kwyw also pointed out that there was an extra connection, between this evil eye necklace and the amulette de cartier:
Tumblr media
both talismans of Courage.
the amulette de cartier has its own place in kaylor lore (if it’s new to you you can read about that here and here and here). but, veterans of quarantine kaylor remember how this rep era necklace made a unique surprise appearance during lover/folklore era, ultimately coinciding with karlie’s 2020 pregnancy. which, given the symbolism of the necklace, i think made a lot of thematic sense… being pregnant during the height of a pandemic is scary and, speaking from experience, i as well found myself in search of things to give me that extra peace of mind.
so seeing the necklace have that Courage keyword connection, i couldn’t help but uhhh, have a feeling so peculiar. now, with the gift of more (celebratory) information, let’s take a look at all the times karlie has worn this necklace (*reminder that some of these may be a day off because of the big time zone difference between me and the US):
August 3rd, 2022 — (as pictured above) karlie’s birthday, she writes “cheers to new beginnings xx”
September 2nd, 2022 — this therabody promo, which many of us got a kick out of after midnights was announced, first because she mentions 3am (the name of the extra version of the album) and the word midnight and second because this tiktok is set to the tune of ABBA’s “Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! A Man After Midnight”
Tumblr media Tumblr media
November 19th, 2022 — a post captioned friyay, notably, wearing a loewe shirt, the designer who she wore to the met gala
Tumblr media
December 11th, 2022 — to a celebratory kode with klossy event for her young scholars
Tumblr media
December 13th, 2022 — she wore it as part of several instagram stories she had up on taylor’s bday (thank you @kwyw for the reminder 😆)
Tumblr media
December 18th, 2022 — she posted this the same day she posted the photos of her josh and levi at the ice skating rink (mikey and misha were there too) before heading to japan.
Tumblr media
February 3rd, 2023 — february.jpg
Tumblr media
and then, at the met gala on May 1st, wearing loewe, she announces her pregnancy, and tells everybody that she is nearly 8 months along!
now, if we are to assume that she is 8 months along this may, we can count back ( 7mo along in april, 6mo march, 5mo feb, 4mo jan, 3mo dec, 2mo nov, 1mo along in oct, 0mo sept) and see how in order to have conceived in september, prep for that would likely have started in… yes, the month before. august! aka… when she first debuted the evil eye necklace!
and when you look back at all the phrases and contexts accompanying her posts with the piece, you can kind of see how the necklace works in concert with her setting her intentions, potentially celebrating milestones like finding out, telling people, hitting the 5 mo mark which is when the majority of pregnancies become more stable, etc… this is all to say, and this is just a simple thing but, i feel confident in saying that this necklace was in fact one way of her hinting at her next child, since all the way back in august 2022 ☺️ and since it’s an eye necklace? well, 😌 all the more nice of a feeling.

Kingdom Hearts: A bizarre Disney experiment that took off.
Tumblr media
Welcome to the House of Milesverse, and today we will be discussing a truly bizarre series. I promise that I'll try to keep it Simple & Clean when it comes to discussing it. Today's topic is Kingdom Hearts, the iconic Disney-Final Fantasy crossover that you've probably heard of.
This is in late honor of the franchise, in fact. March 28th celebrates the 22nd Anniversary of the first Kingdom Hearts game. That is 22 years since Kingdom Hearts' inception.
What IS Kingdom Hearts?
The Process:
Tumblr media
Years ago, the early seeds of Kingdom Hearts were laid in a game idea. Square Enix (Square at the time) wanted to make a 3D game similar to Mario 64. However, they could not figure out an idea on who would represent the series. They believed that only characters from Disney could potentially rival Mario in popularity.
That led to a chance encounter between former game producer Shinji Hashimoto and a Disney Executive. Square as it turned out, operated in the same japanese office building as Disney did. From there, Hashimoto pitched the idea to Disney directly, and it was smooth sailings from then on.
Development soon began in 2000 with character designer Tetsuya Nomura providing the 'look' of many characters in the game. Initially, Disney wanted Donald Duck to be the main protagonist for the game. Square on the other hand argued for Mickey Mouse to be playable.
Instead, a compromise was made, and an original character was created. Sora is the main protagonist of the Kingdom Hearts series and wielder of the keyblade. He's recognizable to many people who aren't as familiar with the games.
A fun fact about Kingdom Hearts is its use of Final Fantasy characters. These characters were quite a shocker expected back then. In fact, their appearance was deliberately kept a secret to entice fans.
Success & More:
Tumblr media
The first game, Kingdom Hearts 1, was released in 2002. It was a commercial success, and it quickly paved the way for a sequel. As of 2022, the game has sold well over 36 million copies worldwide.
Tetsuya Nomura himself was unsure if there would be room for a sequel. He still snuck in a secret trailer scene in the game for fans. Soon enough, plans for a sequel were made after Kingdom Hearts 1, and other games quickly followed. Chain of Memories, for example, was released in 2003, and directly follows the story from the first game.
Since then, Kingdom Hearts is up to its 13th installment. It has spawned a massive following worldwide. The series just perfectly captures the Disney magic that many people had in their childhood. More than that, it also offers something fun for the Final Fantasy fans.
In 2021, Sora would finally join Super Smash Bros. Ultimate as its last DLC fighter. In addition, it was revealed that Sora is the most highly requested fighter to ever appear in the Smash Bros series. It's quite a testament to his character, and how popular he is.
In 2022, Kingdom Hearts IV was announced for the next generation of consoles. It is a sequel to Kingdom Hearts 3, which acted as an ending to numerous old storylines. Kingdom Hearts IV sets the stage for a new story, pitting Sora and his friends against the 'Lost Masters'.
Voice Actors who have worked on Kingdom Hearts:
Tumblr media
Kingdom Hearts has boasted many actors over its installments. You would be surprised to see who's been in the series.
The main character Sora is voiced by Haley Joel Osment. Osment played in the Sixth Sense as Cole Sear, a psychic child. You'd know him from the iconic film line, "I see dead people".
The main antagonist Xehanort is voiced by at least three actors.
Leonard Nimoy (Spock from Star Trek)
Rutger Hauer (Roy Batty from Blade Runner)
Christopher Lloyd (Doctor Brown from Back To The Future)
Opposite of Xehanort is Eraqus, who is played by Mark Hamill. He's Luke Skywalker and the iconic voice of The Joker in numerous Batman media. Nimoy and Hamill in a way also represents the Star Trek Vs. Star Wars debate that's pervaded fandoms for so long.
The character Roxas is Sora's 'nobody', essentially his other half. He and Ventus, the character he's modeled after, share the same voice. They are both voiced by Jesse McCartney, a famed popstar in the 2000s. Jesse McCartney would also do the voice for Robin in Young Justice, and later, as Nightwing.
Ansem the Wise, later known as DiZ, is another supporting character in the franchise. Christopher Lee is well-known as Dracula, Saruman, and Count Dooku. After his unfortunate passing, Lee was replaced by Corey Burton.
Hayden Panettiere was the initial voice for Sora's close friend, Kairi. She played Kirby Reed in both Scream 4 and Scream 6. She also played Juliette Barnes in Nashville, and Claire Bennet in Heroes.
Hayden would later be replaced by Alyson Stoner in future installments. Alyson Stoner played Caitlyn in Camp Rock and it's sequel. She was also Isabella Garcia in the popular Disney series, Phineas and Ferb.
The main antagonist of the first game was Ansem, Xehanort's Heartless. Ansem was at first voiced by Billy Zane for the first game. Billy Zane was also the main antagonist of Titanic, aka Caledon Hockley.
In later games, Zane would be replaced by Richard Epcar. Richard Epcar is notable as the voice of Raiden from Mortal Kombat, and Daisuke Jigen from Lupin the 3rd. He's also the voice of Joseph Joestar's older self in later seasons.
All of this is further compounded by the Disney worlds. Kingdom Hearts gets numerous old actors back to reprise their roles. For example, Mickey, Donald, and Goofy all retain their current voice actors.
Overall, Kingdom Hearts has a well-crafted cast of voice actors. Numerous notable names have come to play characters in the series. I think that on its own is another impressive fact to add to the series.
The Story (And why it's not as confusing as you think):
What makes it so confusing?
Tumblr media
Kingdom Hearts is renowned across online fandom platforms for its plotline. Almost anything about it is guaranteed to create confusion in fans. It's hard enough having to keep up with how many people are just different iterations of other characters. Fans have coined the phrase "Everyone is Sora/Xehanort." for a reason.
In reality, the story itself is not 'confusing' at first glance. It all relies on making sure you play the games in order. Kingdom Hearts' greatest flaw is when people overthink it to the extreme.
There are a lot of people who would prefer to skip to the most recent game. However, that creates its own net of issues. When you don't play the games in order, you end up confused by certain plot elements.
To fully comprehend the bigger picture, you need to accept a few things about the series as well. For example, keyblades are inherently magical weapons. They possess a degree of sentience and can open or lock any door. Only someone strong of heart can wield a keyblade.
Overall, Kingdom Hearts is not a confusing series to get into. It's just a lot to look at. This leads to the games overwhelming people who try to take in every single detail.
Why it works:
Tumblr media
The love for Kingdom Hearts is phenomenal. After its release, it quickly gained praise as a best-selling hit under Disney. Much of this praise is given to the story, and characters. Even more praise is added to its scene-stealing music.
Its blending of Disney and RPG tones is also enjoyed by the audience. This is something that you would not expect to work, but it does. Kingdom Hearts itself is a perfect balance of Square Enix's usual flavor, combined with the childhood Disney magic that you are familiar with.
Kingdom Hearts' accuracy toward Disney also works when looking at the films. Fan-Favorite locations in the game are pulled from Disney's various films. They are almost perfectly replicated in Kingdom Hearts' own animation. It is a testament and love letter to the franchise's cartoonish roots.
Kingdom Hearts is something that at first glance, you think would not work. It's effectively a bizarre fusion between two things that have nothing in common. However, the developers behind the scenes do their part in making sure that the game balances it. Everything has a purpose, and nothing feels out of place.
Conclusion:
Tumblr media
Kingdom Hearts is an interesting topic to bring up in terms of video games. It's attracted a lot of confusion and shock from newcomers. However, I believe that this zaniness does its part. It is meant to be shocking, and as a series, it does that well.
There's something fun about how the series presents itself. Kingdom Hearts does not take itself seriously. Yet, there's no harm coming from that effect. This only accentuates its deep connections to the Disney franchise.
I think Kingdom Hearts is a fun series that has a lot of heart. I wanted to play the games myself as a kid after seeing how cool they were. I finally had the chance to buy them last year. It was perfect being able to relish every moment in playing them. I would recommend you pick up the game yourself.
What's NEXT?
Remember when I said that I was doing a review of Transformers: Earthspark? I still am. I pushed it back in favor of other topics, but it is still happening.
We'll also talk about X-Men '97 and discuss some other things. Moon Girl season 2 will also be another topic sometime this year. I hope you really enjoyed this one, by the way. If you have any questions or suggestions, please send them my way.

I'm just gonna go on a rant real quick, on
Why 2021 - 2024 are the Worst Years of my Life
TRIGGER WARNING: May contain references of violence, and illness. The reader's discretion is advised.
Ever since March 13th of 2020, about 4 years ago, the world has gone downhill because of the fear of death. The Coronavirus ruined everything. I'll give you my rundown.
In 2020, COVID kicked everyone's ass. The USA was quarantined for two weeks. Toilet paper was vanishing left and right. Everyone stayed home for what seemed like forever.
In 2021, Friday Night Funkin' became the hot new thing. I made two new blogs. I met @oogaboogaspookyman for the first time, and his actions will forever change how I see things, for the better. My boyfriend moved away to another state, so we had to part ways. My negligent sister (she was living with me, my brother and my mom at the time) whom I will call Jessica, has finally moved out of our house. Things were going great for the first 10 months, but then December 5th came. My mom was diagnosed with COVID. Now, WE had to stay home for 2 MORE weeks. My narcissistic sister (who only had 1 kid at the time) whom I will call Karen, stayed with us. Everyone was trapped in their rooms. I had my own, my brother had HIS own, my sister and her son shared one, my mom had her own, you know the drill. It was kind of cool, staying home for 2 weeks, finally having my own room after a decade of sharing one with at least one of my brothers. It felt like I could do anything without anyone looking. We were quarantined, so why not? Once the quarantine was lifted, it was already Christmastime, and we only had a week to shop. After the quarantine was lifted, I felt my first case of derealization. Words cannot describe how awful it felt. Everything was blurry, but... not blurry... at the same time. It felt like everything was shifting, but not moving. I remembered myself standing in my room, feeling really weirded out and scared that everything was losing its form. Then, it stopped. I couldn't sleep for the rest of the night.
In 2022, Sonic.EXE became popular again. I finally got a Meta Quest 2 VR headset. Karen officially moved in with us. That was her first mistake. She should've just stayed with my drunk-as-all-hell dad who lived next door. I was introduced to Ori and the Blind Forest. I loved it. It became my favorite game. Then, what clicked in my head, verified me as... a furry. That just made matters worse. People at school made fun of/bullied me for being an "EwW fUrRy WhY dOn't YoU cHoOsE a DiFfErEnT pAtH???" I became more violent as time went on. Why are people like this? Why do people call someone out for the stupidest reasons?
In 2023, I was invited to the dark side of the moon. New peeps in the world (and my house) so my two sisters, Karen, and another who I will call Georgia, had kids. Georgia and her boyfriend were driven out of their house by roaches, so they moved with us. Both of my sisters became greedy little shit stains. Now, we have 3 maggots running around the house. I suffered through my second case of derealization. This time, I'm sharing a room with my brother yet again. I hate it. But, I'm sure glad I have a Wii again. My hyperfixation is now Night in the Woods again. We went camping. It was fun. It was... fine...
Now, 2 months ago, my aunt, who I will call Dorothy, passed away due to an overdose. This rocked me to my core. Rest in peace, aunt Dorothy. The house, in shambles. My sanity, running low. Poppy Playtime Chapter 3 came out. I now have a new hyperfixation: the Smiling Critters. Things were not looking good.
It is now March 4th, 2024. I feel like absolute shit. I have too many assignments and projects to catch up on. My life is becoming more and more similar to Mae Borowski's.
I now know how @thelonelyfeline feels.
My life is starting to become the vibes of this song.

Allume, the first idol group under Flowerbank, made their debut in 2000 with a five-member lineup, introducing a unique concept in the Kpop scene. They implemented a practice of changing their lineup every five years, marking the emergence of a new Allume generation in a week-long ceremony. Over the years, the number of members varied, typically ranging from four to seven girls.
The current lineup belongs to the fourth generation of Allume, which is the second most popular generation. They started their journey in 2020 with seven members, making it the largest Allume lineup ever. The original members were Misun, Rubi, Daeun, Yebin, Yui, Jaehwa, and Fame. Misun left the group in early 2022 due to personal reasons.
Now, the fifth generation of Allume consists of six members, and they have consistently maintained their position at the top of the music charts.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Growing up in Senegal, Rubi knew she wanted to pursue music. Inspired by the country's diverse sounds and those of London— where she moved at 12 — and a love of K-pop that began in her teen years. Becoming a fan of Shinee, Girls Generation, and Sistar Rubi began to seek out auditions to become an idol herself at just seventeen. Originally being accepted into JYP Entertainment in 2012, she trained there for three years before leaving the company and continuing her training at Flowerbank Entertainment. During her training years, Rubi often wrote songs for other groups for some extra cash. She picked up various side jobs to pay for her own training as her parents cut contact with her after she left JYP due to them wanting her to come back to London and get a college education. Rubi hasn't spoken to her parents since then and has no desire to be in contact with them. After training for another three years, Rubi made her joyous debut in the fourth generation of Allume as their main rapper and lead vocalist.

Before her trainee days, Yebin was a classically trained ballerina, saying it was what made her fell in love with dance in the first place. She was supposed to become a professional before she was scouted by BigHit Entertainment and gave it up to be a full time trainee.
Yebin began her training under BigHit, participating in their two infamous survival shows: CHERRY LUV! and THE HONEY POT! both in which she ranked well in and was popular amongst viewers. Though she didn’t make it into the group that resulted from CHERRY LUV! she did rank fourth in THE HONEY POT! landing her a spot in the infamous girl group, HONEYBUNCH. Honeybunch was a mess from their debut in 2017. Plagued by mismanagement and bullying scandals, Yebin could see the ship was sinking and was one of the first to leave the group, terminating her contract along with Myoi Yui in 2019. Shortly after her departure, it was revealed she was rigged into the final lineup of Honeybunch but to being the cousin of Min Yoongi. However, this did little damage to her career due to her vanishing for the remainder of 2019. To the shock of many, Yebin and Yui were introduced as fourth-generation Allume members, hand in hand. Yebin is the group's leader, main vocal, lead dancer, and lead rapper.

Yui's journey began when she joined BigHit and took part in three well-known survival shows: PRODUCE 101, CHERRY LUV! and THE HONEY POT! When Yui competed in Produce 101, she achieved an overall ranking of 13th. Her performance in these shows placed her in the middle tier and left her somewhat inconsistent in the eyes of fans, often suffering from unfavorable editing on every survival program she participated in. Despite not making it into the final group formed after CHERRY LUV!, she managed to secure the seventh spot in THE HONEY POT!, earning her a place in the renowned girl group, HONEYBUNCH. Prior to her appearance on CHERRY LUV! Reflecting on her experiences, she admitted that coming so close to victory but ultimately falling short nearly led her to give up on her dream of becoming an idol. Honeybunch was a mess from their debut in 2017. Plagued by mismanagement and bullying scandals, Yui could see the ship was sinking and was one of the first to leave the group, terminating her contract along with Min Yebin in 2019.

Born to be a star, Jamie began her career at just 6 years old as a child actress in her homeland of New Zealand. She continued to act in various commercials, short films, and even having small roles in bigger films before going to train in Korea at the age of fourteen. She began training at the company “Duble Kick Company” now known as “MLD Entertainment” where she trained for 5 years before staring on the survival show “Finding Momoland” in which she made it to the final round but was eliminated.  She shortly left the company afterward, fearing she would never debut, and was even in talks with her mother on coming back to New Zealand but was approached by ANGELICO Entertainment. She signed under the label and was put in SE4SONS as their Summer just two weeks later. There's still a lot of debate on what happened between Jamie Yeun and Angelico Entertainment but she was abruptly graduated from SE4SONS and sued by the label for "breaching her contract". Flowebank represented Jamie during this trial and freed her from the Angelico contract, signing her and securing her a spot in Allume's fourth generation. Jamie is widely beloved by fans for her sweet attitude and pure spirit. She's the group's main vocalist and lead rapper,

Daeun began her idol journey with her older brother, Johnny, at SM Entertainment in 2008. The pair would only train for summers, finishing their educations in America. Once she graduated high school, Daeun began training full-time in Korea but would not stay at SM much longer due to not making the Red Velvet lineup despite being promised a spot. She would get picked up by Angelico Entertainment and would debut just a few months later in the experimental girl group iStay. iStay was very successful due to their interesting lore, marketing, and music. Their storyline was the girls going through various phases of the future to find one another so they could defeat “The Machine” who was the faceless villain of their story. Though the girls were well liked, they were horrifically mismanaged and overlooked by their company due to their sister group, SE4SONS, booming success. iStay was often pushed to the side and ignored by their company, leaving their fans with long periods of inactivity. The group has spent more time inactive than they have active. Their last comeback was in mid-2019. Daeun silently left the group after their presumed final comeback, disappearing from the scene for a while before reappearing at the Allume fourth-generation introduction ceremony. She has not brought up iStay since joining Allume and often says Allume is the only group she's been a part of. Daeun is the face of the group, main vocalist, and center.

Mobsters Galore: More of Dom's Henchmen - 2021
I made some more mobster co-workers for Derek to interact with while at work. His Boss, Dom, just really needed more names to scream other than our boy, so... here we go. You can find my first henchmen intro post HERE.
@daedriyth is responsible for pitching the last two characters, but the middle-aged men are all me though, lol.
From Left to Right w/ Blurbs under the cut: Carmine Notaro, Marco Valenti, Giacomo Monti, Nora Notaro
Carmine Notaro
Age: 63 || Birthday: November 13th ♏ || Traits: Perfectionist, Bookworm, Neat
Carmine is Dom's oldest friend, bookkeeper, and all-around right-hand man. He comes from a long family line of accountants and is the 6th generation owner of the Notaro Family accounting firm. Traditionally, the firm has always been led by a male family member, but with all five of his children now being young adult women, he is preparing to leave his business to his eldest daughter, Nora, the only child who has ever shown any interest in the family’s work. Carmine does, however, worry about Nora falling deep into the folds of the Mafia through her work at the firm, just as he did at around her age. He will never admit it, but he was always sort of relieved by the fact he had no sons, and he's proud that all his daughters have been busy doing their own thing and haven't married back into the mob like some of his own sisters did, but now, is Nora really starting to scare him.
Marco Valenti
Age: 61 || Birthday: August 12th ♌ || Traits: Self-Assured, Mean, Loyal
Marco Valenti is a bit of an old school legend in Dom's inner circle. His closest friends have jokingly been calling him "Mr. Clean" for years since he used to be known for his clean up jobs. He's semi-retired from that now, but to this day, nobody can make a problem disappear better than Valenti. Dom and Valenti are now business partners, splitting the expenses on their first joint renovation project, which they hope to have finished by the end of 2022. He and Carmine are very close friends as well and can often be found spending their down time from the Reno together, smoking their favorite Cuban cigars and drinking their scotch neat. Besides all the work stuff, Valenti makes cannelloni alla Bolognese that is simply to die for, and he enjoys helping his wife train her show dogs. He will fight you if you make fun of his 4 miniature poodles, they are insured, and he is a very good shot. Do not test him!
Giacomo Monti
Age: 31 || Birthday: March 19th ♓ ||Traits: Romantic, High-Maintenance, Clumsy
Monti is one of Dom's many nephews, and the most recent addition to Dom's inner circle… albeit more so out of necessity on his part. Nearly 4 years ago, he used his family connections to get a cushy, government desk job at the municipal Treasury office in Cicero, IL. But last President’s Day, in the midst of the pandemic, while his office was closed for the holiday, he chose to indulge in a little workplace fantasy with a lady friend of his who decided to record a POV video of her playtime with him. A few months later, she accidentally uploaded the video to her OF page, without censoring his face, starting a sex scandal that then spiraled into a full investigation, revealing Monti was embezzling money from the Treasury to generously pay and tip all the sex workers he regularly hired. Now his uncle Dom is working on damage control for his reputation, graciously giving Monti a place to stay as he works through his community service while on probation. Dom has also been pairing Derek up with Monti to run errands for the reno team, hoping Derek’s calm, family man demeanor will rub off on him… but it probably won't. Let's be real.
Lanora "Nora" Notaro
Age: 29 || Birthday: December 22nd ♑ || Traits: Ambitious, Insider, Active
Nora is Carmine's eldest daughter and has been working alongside him for years in his accounting firm, working hard to prove to him that she can carry on his practice and the family name. She knows that he worries about her, especially now that she's been helping out at Dom's renovation site, mostly out of boredom, and to see her old friend, Monti, again. She is a petite, out lesbian, now working mostly with rough and tumble, very traditional Italian men, many of whom are twice her age. She understands his apprehension there, but she's still eager to show everyone just how capable she truly is. She's been sparring with Newell for a while now, she's gained 10 pounds of muscle, and she couldn't care less about what anyone thinks of her. She just wants to do her job, and she craves the power and connections that come with it. Monti, however, is still confused about why she wants to be in the mob so badly, especially when he's trying to get out, but he does appreciate having her around all the time, especially since she seems to have no problem fending off all the guys who've been poking fun at him for his situation.

Source (Season 1 - March 13th 2022)
sambaschutte: BTS#5: Our ship, The Revenge☠️🐈‍⬛ Our art, design and construction departments built a life-sized ship on our stage. It could be taken apart and was set on airbags to rock back and forth during takes. Combine that with a huge screen projecting actual oceanscape = me getting seasick in week 1🤢 Our vfx team are magicians: we never set foot in the ocean once, yet you could never tell 🌊 Being surrounded by this amazing lot everyday made the long days so easy🖤 And yes Ewen acted with a real seagull on his head called Jonathan (Karl on the show). You try acting normal across from a man with a seagull on his head!😂🏴‍☠️

WGA / SAG-AFTRA Strikes Masterpost
[ !! this post will be edited if there are any updates to info or if i discover i made any errors in my research, so i don’t recommend reblogging it !! ]
✤ TL;DR:
viv has now said in an interview posted October 26th, 2023 that the delay was due to Hazbin Hotel not having a streaming platform, and making arrangements with Prime.
prior to that, viv said on July 13th, 2023, that she felt it was "safe to say" the actor's strike "effects both (helluva boss and hazbin hotel)" even though she could only speak for helluva. [ link to post detailing her tweets & replies that mentioned the strikes ]
what i think is the strikes weren't the main cause but they caused minor delays due to their effect on the industry, and the main cause was Hazbin Hotel not having a distribution partner.
the timeline of WGA strikes and Hazbin Hotel's delay coincidentally line up with each other
✤ basic info about a24 and the unions:
A24 handles producing (funding, organizing) and distributing (marketing, release strategizing, platform seeking) of their products.
Bento Box is the studio that handled animation for Hazbin Hotel.
WGA is the union for WRITERS in film, TV, radio, and online media.
SAG-AFTRA is the union for ACTORS and RADIO ARTISTS.
SAG-AFTRA allowed A24 to continue filming MOVIES with SAG-AFTRA actors around late July 2023 due to A24 not being affiliated with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP) that SAG-AFTRA & WGA were/are striking against.
the only thing i've found about A24 and the WGA was a Redditor saying that in relation to SAG-AFTRA's decision to allow A24 to use their actors, WGA hadn't made a decision about A24.
The WGA contract does not cover writing for general advertising, however the development of branded television/entertainment shows/projects that are using WGA writers most likely would've been put on hold. Non-WGA writers would also hesitate to work during a strike for fear of ruining rep/scabbing/ruining their own chances to eventually join the union themselves. (pic below)
Tumblr media
Regarding the above; "development" usually means earlier pre-production work, so this may not be applicable to HH at all.
✤ timeline of strike updates, hazbin releases, and vivziepop tweets:
A24 picked up Hazbin Hotel in August 2020.
The Hazbin Hotel Twitter posted that it would be coming in Summer 2023 on October 27th, 2022.
Hazbin Hotel's Twitter continued to make general promotional posts with images & GIFs of the characters throughout 2023 starting with... January 31st - "it's going to be one hell of a year!" February 28th - "lovers in hell"
Hazbin Hotel's wrap-party was posted about on socials in late March 2023. [ As far as I've found wrap-parties generally are held once everything is completed & ready for post-production, but can still take months or years to come out afterwards, although the industry tends to want things out the door fast these days. ]
Hazbin Hotel's Twitter continued to post promo tweets... April 1st - Angel Dust's "birthday" April 30th - "Charlie is excited! Are you?"
The WGA strike began in early May 2023
Viv says in a reply tweet that the WGA (writer's) strike wouldn't effect a Helluva Boss episode that had already been written. (this is true.)
Tumblr media
Hazbin Hotel's Twitter continued to post promo tweets... May 31st - "What's Alastor so happy about? We'll see!" June 30th - "Someone had a great month! #happypride"
SAG-AFTRA votes in approval of a strike on July 13th, 2023.
Viv tweets on July 13th, 2023 in support of the SAG-AFTRA (actor's) strike and explains the strike "will effect show marketing and promo so things might take longer" but doesn't specify if she meant for Helluva Boss or Hazbin Hotel.
Tumblr media
The same day, in reply to someone asking if the strike would effect both shows or just Hazbin Hotel, Viv says she can only speak for Helluva Boss, but that she thinks it's "safe to say it effects both."
Tumblr media
The SAG-AFTRA strike officially starts at midnight on July 14th, 2023.
Hazbin Hotel's Twitter doesn't make any further promotional posts or announcements for months
There were many developments and meetings on the WGA strike during September 2023.
The AMPTP met with the WGA to officially restart negotiations on September 14th, 2023
The WGA resumed negotiations on September 20th, 2023, with Disney, Warner Bros. Discovery, Netflix, and Universal Pictures.
The meeting on the 20th was followed by meetings on September 21st, September 22nd, and September 23rd, 2023.
VivziePop posted a tweet September 23rd, 2023, that an update would be “coming very soon”
Tumblr media
On September 24th, 2023, the “writers and studios reached a tentative agreement”
On September 26th, 2023, the WGA leaders announced the strike would officially end.
The strike for WGA ended on September 27th, 2023 at 12:01am PDT.
The Hazbin Hotel trailer that announced its new release in January 2024 was released the very next day, September 28th, 2023.
Hazbin Hotel's Twitter resumes posting on September 28th, 2023 when they share the new trailer as well.
VivziePop posted that she had watched “through the whole season of hh” on October 4th, 2023.
Tumblr media
On October 9th, 2023 the WGA successfully agreed to a new contract with AMPTP.
The Hazbin Hotel "Happy Day in Hell" preview was released on October 14th, 2023.
The SAG-AFTRA strike is still on-going as of October 13th, 2023.
✤ !! UPDATE !!
Viv has now said in an interview posted October 16th, 2023, that the delay was due to Hazbin Hotel not having a distribution partner (streaming platform), and once they made a deal with Prime they then had to make arrangements. (pic below)
Tumblr media
✤ final thoughts
it would seem that they’ve been working the entire time/on and off since March 2023, and the delay was due to difficulty finding a streaming platform/making arrangements with Prime, like Vivzie claimed in this interview, and just happened to fall into a similar timeline with the WGA strike.
since she has said in reference to the actor’s strike she felt it was “safe to say it effects both (helluva boss AND hazbin hotel) then it’s possible that both caused a delay.
i.e. they were delayed while trying to find a platform, but there were ripples from the "drama" of the strikes throughout the industry that could've caused some other minor delays along the way while they were trying to find a platform, and/or as they were settling arrangements with Prime.
alright that's all the data and speculations i have, enjoy, and as always remember to take speculations with a grain of salt!
[ also feel free to send me any receipts you have regarding all this, you can always share your thoughts or feelings or theories in my ask box if you want to, but pls do not come to insist what is or isn’t true without including receipts/links pls and thank you! ]

Bella's Book Club FAQ 🍎🌲📚
What is Bella's Book Club?
Bella's Book Club, (sometimes abbreviated to "BBC"), is an interactive virtual book club created by the Three Books One Plot podcast. Each month, participants read a selected book from the list of Bella Swan’s (really Stephenie Meyer’s) favorite books and authors as it appears in Chapter 13 of Midnight Sun, then come together to discuss it on Discord and other social media.
Where can I find Bella's Book Club?
We post most of our important information here on our Tumblr, as well as in the #announcements channel of our Discord. You can also follow along on our Goodreads and Storygraph (mainly used to keep track of past and present books we’ve read/are reading.)
Who can join Bella's Book Club?
BBC is open to anyone! You do not have to have participated in previous discussions, or even be a listener of the 3B1P podcast (though we’d love that, of course.) All we ask is that you be prepared to encounter mature themes and situations in some of our books (and discussions.)
How do I participate in Bella's Book Club?
BBC is designed to let you choose the level of participation you’re comfortable with. Most of the action (and fun) happens over on our Discord, during our monthly real-time discussions, but you're also welcome to share your thoughts or fanworks on a book by tagging us on tumblr or sending an ask/submission. We also sometimes post challenges, ask/tag games, and “scavenger hunts” to go along with our book of the month, and encourage each other to get creative. Past BBCers have made moodboards, fanbinds, playlists, shitposts, written fic and parodies, done scientific research, and even recreated recipes from the books we’ve read! The pressure is totally off, though—you’re welcome to read along and lurk from the cozy corner of your choice.
Who runs Bella's Book Club?
BBC is run primarily by bookworm nerds M (@gashousegables) and G (@volturialice) with occasional help from Shannon (@flowerslut).
M (she/they) is an Australian book nerd with librarian aspirations. From Animorphs to a Smeyer-adjacent Dragon girl phase, she's also the weeaboo in residence for the book club. When not feverishly promoting their Virtual Best Friend known as the Libby App they are swallowing pulpy Romances and mandatory sociological theory.
Favorite books: Imagica, the Locked Tomb series, Friday's Child, Picnic at Hanging Rock
G (she/her) is an American book nerd who grew up devouring like 3 high fantasy doorstoppers a week and considered the Scholastic Book Fair a national holiday. She enjoys reading gory Jacobean/Elizabethan tragedies for fun and has worked in Shakespeare education when she’s not stanning her local library.
Favorite books: Annihilation, The Bloody Chamber, the Locked Tomb series, Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell
Shannon (she/her) is an American jock who read oodles of fic but thought books were mainly good for propping up wobbly tables until she had her own Reading Renaissance in 2022. Now she's on a quest to discover new favorites by seeking out recs and devouring every book in sight!
Favorite books: We Have Always Lived in the Castle, the Locked Tomb series, The Vanishing Half
When is Bella's Book Club?
This year, Bella's Book Club runs September 2023 through June 2024, followed by a break for our summer reading challenge. Books are announced one month in advance, and discussions take place once a month on Monday nights at 8 PM EST (Tuesday mornings at 11 AM AEST) during 3B1P’s off weeks. In the event of a postponement, we announce it on Tumblr and Discord.
The current discussion dates for 2023-4 are:
October 2nd
October 30th
November 27th
December 26th (Tuesday!)
January 22nd
February 19th
March 18th
April 15th
May 13th
June 10th
Nominations/recs for the 2024 Summer Reading Challenge will open May 20th.
Do you do movie nights?
Yes! We sometimes take a break from reading to host Bella's Movie Club. Many of the books we read have been adapted for film and TV (and when no adaptation is available, we often watch a thematically similar movie.) We host movie nights on our Discord, scheduled according to demand and availability. We usually announce movie nights on Tumblr and Discord a week or so in advance, and schedule them on weekend nights (US)/weekend or Monday mornings (Australia) to accommodate the max number of time zones. If you’ve never watched a movie on Discord before, it’s super easy—anyone who wants to watch joins in via our voice channel, mutes themself (if you don’t know how to do this, the mods can do it for you), and then chats (mostly jokes) in real time via the #movie-discussion channel. It’s a rollicking time.
What books have you read in the past?
For our Season 1 (Twilight) lineup we read Jane Eyre, The Princess Bride, Sense and Sensibility, Tooth and Claw, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, Little Women, and Northanger Abbey.
What’s the BBC Summer Reading Challenge?
The Bella's Book Club Summer Reading Challenge is our yearly summer break activity, designed to coincide with 3B1P’s hiatuses. Phase 1 of the challenge involves recommending up to 5 books through a Google form. In Phase 2, everyone’s recs are compiled into a list. Readers then choose 5 books from the list to read (and, optionally, review) during the summer months! You can find last year’s list here (and reccer spotlights here.)
Why are the books on your list Like That?
The list we’re pulling from was made by a white Mormon woman for her Not Like Other Girls YA protagonist. (We’ve found that Stephenie Meyer’s taste in books varies from “a quality classic but uninspired as a rec” to “this is actually a pretty cool deep cut.”) But don’t let that put you off too hard—we love reading through a more intersectional lens and Queering The Narrative, for example! We also take summers off to read each other’s book recommendations, which can be of any genre and include more diverse characters and authors. Even when choosing our lineup of monthly books, we try to schedule so that we end up with diversity of genre, era, style, and subject matter if nothing else.
***
got more questions? send us an ask!
happy reading! (we'll see you at book club)
