My EgoPats Meeting the Canon EgoPats (Brought To You by Incorrect Quotes)

Yep, I finally decided that this post deserved to be expanded on. So, to absolutely no-one's surprise, I gave it the ol' college try with memes.

___

[Caliban has just returned from visiting Theory Manor. He’s now ranting to Murdock about WarfPat]

Caliban: Listen to what one of my STUPID doppelgängers did! Caliban: Apparently one of his “guests” ended up dying in his studio, and he offered the body to me. And since we’ve been in-between jobs lately, I was like, “Sure, why not?” Caliban: So, I cooked the best parts, then I went to town. . .and every two minutes, he added salt. Caliban: And it was weird. It almost tasted like sweet potato. Caliban: I asked, “Did this guy eat a lot of candy before he died? Or was he on drugs?” Caliban: And Warf said, “Noooo.” Caliban: Every two minutes, he added salt, salt, sALT, SALT! It was like he wanted to poison me! Caliban: And when I finished eating, he asked, “How did you like the human flesh wiTH SUGAR?” Caliban: . . .HE USED SUGAR INSTEAD OF SALT!

___

Mack: Well, if Lush stopped literally presenting soap as deli food, then this wouldn't happen so frequently.

___

LeviathanPat: ¥ðµ kñðw whå† Ì’vê rêålïzêÐ? The Detective: Some thoughts are better left unsaid? LeviathanPat: ñï¢ê †r¥, åñ¥wå¥—

___

Ness: So they were just using me? Penn/Pennsylvania: I’m sorry, Ness. Mack: *trying to contain his amusement* You must feel pretty stupid right now. Ness: . . .

Penn/Pennsylvania: A riddle for you, my friend! So it’s raining, right? And you pass a bus stop. There are three people there—your most trustworthy friend, a pregnant lady who needs to go to the hospital, and the person of your dreams. However, your smart car only fits two people. What do you do? Ness: Oh, I’ve heard this one before! You lend the car to your friend so they can take the pregnant lady to the hospital, and then you stay at the bus stop with your dream person! Penn/Pennsylvania: Oh, so close, but wrong. The correct answer is as follows—you go home and reEVALUATE YOUR DAMN LIFE! Penn/Pennsylvania: *grabs Ness by the collar and starts playfully shaking him* YOU! BOUGHT! A! SMART! CAR!

___

[Caliban leads Mack over to a closet]

Mack: *walks into the closet* Um. . .what’s in here? Caliban: Oh, it’s just—*turns the room’s light off and grabs the door handle* —YOUR DEMISE. Mack: AHHHHH—! Caliban: *slams the door and locks it*

Happy Birthday to meeeeeeeeee!

So 14 feels way different than 13. For real. I think it's because I was expecting 13 to feel different, but sometimes when you expect something it turns out the opposite ya know?

Plus, 13 is like, "I'm new to being a teenager!!"

14 is more like, "I'm becoming the person I want to be." At least that's how I want it to be. I wanted to start this blog as a record of all that.

I should ask Did you guys feel the same way when you turned 13 and 14?

But probably nobody's gonna read this because I'm just a weirdo in the weird dessert. I mean, I know my best friend Jesse is reading this (hi Jesse). Besides her, crickets.

But yeah, if you are reading this and you don't know me - I live in Seven Monolith Village, a teensy tiny town that you've only heard of if you're into aliens or homesteading. And I'm literally stuck. As in, I'm physically unable to leave. My first memories are of all the adults in my life (Charlie, my great-uncle/father-figure - Rose, my what? Roommate? Mother-figure? Pseudo-aunt? All of the above? and my mom, Cecelia. who doesn't live here) telling me that for some reason, there's something wrong with me that makes it so I can't leave a certain radius of where we live. I got older and thought that they were just exaggerating to keep me safe, but then last year I tried. And it was, let's just say not good.

Anyway. That part of my life sucks, but not everything sucks. This year is all about Marin Dram 2.0. Not new, but definitely improved.

And maybe someday, somehow somebody will read this and care about what I have to say. Somebodies, even. Until then, this is Marin Dram signing off and sending my lame contemplations into the void!

July 1, 2018

Things I Want To Do Before I Turn 20 (and some of these will never happen like are literally unable to happen but JUST LET ME DREAM

1. Kiss someone (who???)

2. Meet HTB (kiss him) (jk he would never) (plus meeting him would be enough)

3. Go to Paris

4. Go to Rome (or somewhere cooler in Italy, look up where is the best pasta???)

5. Go to Greenland (why not???)

6. Go to New York City

7. Go to LA (with a dream and my cardigan lol)

8. Go to the Grand Canyon (this isn't mine, but 9, Jesse is sitting right here and she went to the GC when we were 12 and she's like blah blah blah it's my favorite place in the world and you'll love it. I'm doing this so she'll shut up.

9. Live in a normal house with normal rooms → ideally 12 of them: living room AND TV room, kitchen, dining room, 3 bathrooms, 3 bedrooms, study/library.

-plus an upstairs downstairs

-I'm willing to compromise on the number of rooms as long as there's more than ONE for TWO PEOPLE and I got my own

-plus an upstairs/downstairs

-I'm willing to compromise on the number of rooms as long as there's more than ONE for TWO PEOPLE and I get my own room with an actual door. Very into doors.

10. Go to a mall (Jesse says there's a bunch of bonkers ones in Vegas)

11. Make friends who aren't Jesse (no offense, Jesse)

12. Get Cecelia (my "mom") to teach me about business stuff so I can open my own cool coffeeshop/bookstore someday

13. Learn to drive (ask Charlie to teach me, he's obsessed with his truck) (Jesse says she can teach me because she's Little Miss Mechanic and thinks she knows everything about cars but news flash Jesse: you're you get than me)

14. Figure out my signature style- like I want people to send me pictures of things and be like "this just screamed Marin" and for that to be true

15. Liquid eyeliner??

16. I'm stopping here because I just read over all this and want to die/cry because easily 3/4 of these are literally impossible?

17. Kill me

18. Bye

19. Lololol Charlie just came in and I was complaining about this, not being able to leave and stuff, etc and he said that I should visit new places by... reading books?? And I mean I like to read. But dude. That's the dumbest thing I've ever head.

July 30, 2018

Okay so this is what I want my life to look like:

I want a pink room. Not just pink... P I N K. Cool pink wallpaper (floral? jacquard??), pink carpet, lots of pink flowers everywhere, a four-poster bed with a pink silk canopy, lots of cool pink throw pillows. Like, so pink that

people think I'm being sarcastic! Oh, and BOOKS. Floor-to-ceiling bookcases, and some of the shelves have, like, STUFF on them that isn't books, like gifts people gave me, or things I've collected on my JOURNEYS. You know, normal stuff that people who live on normal places and do normal things have.

If I lived in in this room, it'd be in awhite three-story house at the end of a cul-de-sac (did you know "culs-de-sac" is the plural? Not "cul-de-sacs"? crazy) and I'd wear very classic girly clothes and my hair would always do what I wanted it to. It'd be one of those towns that people call small, but it's actually a city. just one with a kinda small, cozy feeling. Somewhere that gets cold enough to wear cute jackets but not so cold I have to to like, shovel my driveway. Not a non-place with like 100 people where you can't even go outside without going crazy.

August 2nd, 2018

I guess I should explain where I live, for all my avid fans out there! (lol) (hello??)

So like... I don't live on Earth. At least, not the Earth you think of when you think of EARTH. I live in some some weird off-brand version of Earth called the Forked Earth where there are aliens and magic wells of magic energy and everything is MAGIC but like the crappy kind of magic, where the sun never fully rises and some goo called "runoff" has made everything wacky and oh yeah, my mom is responsible for that and everyone here hates her!! LOL

Also, I can't leave! Like, literally can't! Rose says I'm a "special child of Source" and that's why but that LITERALLY explains tells me nothing, in fact it just raises further questions that no one can seem to answer! AHHHHHHHHHH

Anyway, the last time I tried to leave I felt. When I try to leave I feel like I'm being pulled back by something, like you know those old cartoons where someone's on stage doing something dumb and then someone offstage pulls them away with a giant shepard's crook? It felt like that, and when I opened my eyes I was back in 7 Monolith Village. UGH.

I know this sounds crazy!!!!! But believe me when I say that I am the least crazy person here. Also, """here""" is C R A Z Y. Runoff has made everything the bad kind of psychedelic and then people here actually DRINK IT! Not only do I not DRINK THE STUFF THAT HAS MADE THE WORLD INSANE, I also do not talk to aliens (or whatever Nula are) like Rose or believe crazy conspiracy theories like Charlie, so I believe that qualifies me as the most normal person in the Forked Earth, thank you for this honor, I accept this award with humility and grace!

September 4, 2018

I had the weirdest dream last night?? I was swimming in a pool full of cereal, and when I came up for air, my mom was pouring milk on my head like she was rinsing my hair. She had her hand over my face like I was a little kid and she was shielding me from soap getting in my eyes.

Anyway I have no idea what it's supposed to mean. I went to bed hungry and I need to take a shower? Lol

October 16, 2018

I was trying to hide this entry from Jesse, but JESSE IS A NOSY PERSON. She says that blogs are for readers, and if I wanted something to be private then I should "Just write in a fucking notebook and hide it under your bed like a normal person, Marin." I'm allowed to have secrets!! Anyway, I'm making her a freaking playlist, that's why I wouldn't tell her what I was writing about. but EVEN STILL! I'm allowed to have secrets!! But I have this blog because I wanna get my feelings out, I wanna see everything in my head typed out all nice in a way that doesn't make it look insane. You know? I don't know who I'm asking.) Because, it's not like I go to a normal school or have a normal life where I'm surrounded by normal people I can talk to. No one knows about me! I'm trapped in this crazy place and This blog is my only outlet to the world outside. I KNOW that's heavy but it's true! The point is: Jesse's birthday is coming up. The central consistent thing in pretty much my whole life is sharing headphones with her and listening to music. The soundtrack to my entire existence is her. I wish I had money and could buy her the best presents of all time, but I can make her the best playlist of all time. I want it to be so good it feels like magic. I want her to think I'm magic. I had another dream the other night. I don't remember much, just glitter. I must be crafting too much. Or looking at festival makeup tutorials. Or both.

November 12, 2018

WARNING- Weird thoughts ahead, lol.

I can never tell which feelings are normal, and which are me being a giant weirdo. But for as long as I can remember, I've had this feeling like every part of my body that's possible to have a ribbon tied around it, has a ribbon tied around it. It's so weird. I can't see the other end of the ribbons - how far they go. where they're attached, nothing. And sometimes it's fine, because sometimes I can hardly feel them. I can forget about them for days at a time, weeks, months if I'm lucky. But then other times I can feel them like, pulling at me. It's freaking spooky, to have something pulling at you from somewhere you can't see. I can't tell if it's pulling me toward whatever it is? Or if it's trying to warn me? Or if I'm just insane??

Does that make sense? Does anybody else feel that way? (she asks into the void)

So idk I guess this ribbons-feeling is why I'm really careful all the time. Like I'm just a careful person. Charlie tried to give me a hard time about it, and I can't be like "I don't wanna pull back in the ribbons too hard without realizing it and wreck something!" because he'd be like "WTF Marin, do we need to get you help?" But also, more and more, I want to be the opposite of careful. I want to take a pair of comically oversized scissors and cut the ribbons into so many pieces that nobody can even tell what they are any more.

I don't know why I'm such a freak, only that I am. I don't know why I can't leave 7 Monolith, only that I can't. But there must be a reason, even if I can't see it, and I feel like it makes sense that the ribbons-feeling is part of that reason, right?

There's just a lot.

January 15, 2019

Happy new year! Lol I forgot to write on the actual first day of 2019, but OH WELL!

I got this new glitter nail polish, thanks to the monthly makeup subscription box my "mom" sends me as an outlet for her abandonment guilt. It has like, every color glitter imaginable without quite reading as "rainbow" which is fine just not really what I was in the mood for and it's vaguely halographic and shifts into all these different colors depending on the light. I'm obsessed. Anyway.

I was putting on another layer because I chipped it like 20 minutes into wearing it, and all of a sudden I had this feeling like I recognized the glitter? Like I felt this thing way deep in my gut and for a minute I couldn't breathe. It's the closest thing I've felt to how books and movies make Christmas look. Like I was home, with family, cookies and cider and all that stuff. Familiar and safe. I almost didn't recognize that feeling. And it came from the nail polish. How weird is that.

I mean, I don't want to make it sound like I've had this awful Charles Dickens childhood - Rose and Charlie are the best ever and always there for me and I love them a lot. But things never feel like...home. You know?

My mom always says this cryptic stuff about how I'm "special" and I wanna strangle her because I'm not, but you try getting my mom to stop doing anything she wants to do. Rose told me once that one day, I would "lead the charge into a new era of existence and access" because I'm "of the Source" and I was like uhhhh okay?? Charlie mostly treats me pretty normal, except when I ask him questions about our family. my mom or any Dram. He knows that I want to know more about them and he's my only real entrypoint, but apparently he's like the black sheep of that whole family. He and my mom were close way back right before I was born, but now whenever she comes to visit he barely even looks at her.

So that's to say: nobody tells me anything, ever.

January 16, 2019

Okay this is so weird. I wrote that entry yesterday about glitter and then last night I dreamed about glitter. Then I woke up with purple glitter in my bed?? Like not a lot, so at first I thought it was from my nail polish, but it was just a handful of purely purple glitter that looks nothing like my nail polish. SO WEIRD!!!!!!

February 14, 2019

Rose has an old book full of "ye olde" style fairy tales, and I flipped through it for the first time in forever today.

Not so weirdly, I've always been drawn to the story of Rapunzel.

Rapunzel couldn't leave the tower, or else she'd break her neck and die.

Same.

February 19, 2019

I was reading this article the other day in one of the teen magazines my "mom" gets me a subscription to and it was all about body positivity, which is great, but it was basically just like "wear a crop top if you wannna wear a crop top! it doesn't matter what size you are! You go, girl!" And like, sure. Yes. I am all for that. But doesn't it seem like there are some steps missing in there? Like, I can physically put on a crop top and wear it outside. But how do I convince myself that everybody isn't looking at me and making fun of me in their minds? How do I unlearn the last almost-fifteen years? How do I get actually positive about my body, not just put on a crop top and fight the urge to cry all day?

It's the same thing like when my mom sends me brochures from the CEO camp she ten when she was my age (her dad started the camp for her, which is an insane thing just by itself, but she did all the work, which is even more insane) and she's like "Marin, you lack direction for your life" and I'm like, cool mom. Yeah. I can see that. What I can't see is how to get there from here.

March 2, 2019

This is what I want my life to look like, volume 2:

The walls of my room are covered in Polaroids of me and my friends. There are lots of mirrors in all kinds of shapes. hearts and moons and stars. There's a record player and a lot of vintage records by Billie Holiday and Lena Horne and Peggy Lee and Nina Simone. And Christmas lights! Everywhere! Lots of of pink and purple Christmas lights everywhere.

If I lived in this room, I'd have so many friends and be part of so many clubs. My best friend would have a collection of vintage cameras, and every place we go to that has a photo booth, we'd get photos taken. Every time I'd look at myself in one of those mirrors, I'd feel happy at what I see and never weird or sad. (Jesse hates taking pictures, so even when I actually do normal stuff with her there's no evidence. What even is a life supposed to be without evidence? That's not an actual question you need to answer Jesse, it's just a question)

Anyway, if I lived in this kind of room, my mom would probably be like, an art history professor at a liberal arts college. That's how come everything looks so cool, because I would know stuff about art. My mom and I would love to try new recipes together. We get each other new cookbooks for every special occasion, and right now we're working out way through a Moroccan one. Moroccan Mondays.

In actuality, there's a dust storm happening outside and my eyes sting.

Here's what I'm obsessed with lately.

Can. You. EVEN???

February 3, 2020

Omg I totally forgot this blog existed!!

I lost the password and instead of just resetting it I got in one of my super stubborn moods (Taurus moon lol) and just kept putting in guesses and jokes on me, it locked me out. Anyway, that's a boring story.

But my friend Ximena is really good at hacking and stuff, so she got me back in. Yeah you read that right - I have friends. Obviously a lot has happened since my last post. Ximena moved out here a couple months ago (X's family used to live here but they moved away a while ago) and she introduced me to Lora who I sorta-not-really already knew, and Jesse and I have been hanging out with them a ton. Jesse kind of more than me. Which is fine!!

Anyway I'm 15 now? If I lived somewhere normal I'd be psyched about almost being 16, because I'd get a car and have a Sweet Sixteen and eat a huge PINK cake, but I don't!

February 16, 2020

I read this fanfic the other night that was written in the second person so everything was like "you." "you're doing this" etc you know?

So... You go to a drive-in movie with Heartthrob Boy, and he spills soda on you by accident. And you take off your shirt ( you have a tank top on, don't worry) to clean it up, bit you're still all sticky and self-conscious about being sticky and HTB like... used his tongue to get it off??? AAHHHHH I'M DISGUSTING

but also I wonder if a boy will ever touch any part of me with his tongue

March 2, 2020

Hi I don't know if you heard but I have friends :)))

March 15, 2020

I think I'm so into painting my nails and doing my hair because those are things that always fit. I don't have to worry about places not carrying about a size 8, or places that carry XLs but when you read the measurements they're actually size 8s too and it's like jesus if that's an XL what am I

My "mom" was confused why I needed new pants because mine still look new, but I showed her the thigh holes and she was like "that's a weird place for a hole, how did that happen" and I realized that when your legs are a certain size, you just don't know about thigh rub and what it does to clothes. Pants could just last for years.

No matter what, I can paint my nails with a different color nail polish on every finger, and I can always do a braid crown. And I know I'm cute as hell, etc, so this is not a Marin Needs to Learn to Love Herself thing. It's just an UGH thing

April 17, 2020

So Rose does all these Source experiments on plants and flowers and stuff. Tbh, it's just one if those things I hardly even register anymore because it's just always there. She's explained to me a million times what Source is/does/means, but the way Rose explains things sometimes is just a LOT to take in and she refers to me as a "child of Source" but I kinda figure that's like "child of God" right? What else would that mean?

But anyway, it's really annoying because dried flowers are a part of my new aesthetic and I pinned a bunch of them up on my wall but I woke up this morning to a freaking jungle of very alive flowers. I freaked out. on Rose, and she Rose said she didn't do it and I was like WELL THEN WHO DID and she said that I did??

Which like. Obviously that doesn't make sense. I asked her what she meant and She just shook her head and said " It's happening. We should have known" which is some horror movie shit that she refused to elaborate on. I love to feel safe and normal!!

Or maybe it's not a horror movie at all. But maybe it's a superhero movie? Maybe there's some kind of origin story I don't know about yet, and all of this will be worth it once I figure out my powers. I wonder what my costume will look like. Lol.

April 23, 2020

Is it possible to die from longing? I know that sounds melodramatic, but I'm also kinda serious?? Because it seems like one of those things that could fester and get infected and kill you. It's like when you fall down and bang up your knee, and you need to put a band-aid on the scrape for a while, but THEN you need to air it out - but how do you know when you're supposed to do each one of those things? And if you do either one too much, your knee gets infected. What if I smother my heart with band-aids for too long and it gets infected? This isn't about anybody. I just keep having these dreams about someone I never expected to have dreams about and they're so intense that they keep leaking into my life and I wonder if I need to do something about them.

May 2, 2020

So Jesse's gotten really into metal music, and I tried to get her to play me something since, AS PREVIOUSLY ESTABLISHED, that's what we've literally ALWAYS DONE with music and each other, and she kinda looked at Ximena out of the corner of her eye and said like "I don't think it's really your thing" And it was the meanest thing anybody's ever said to me.

So later I looked up Zenion, the band she was talking about, and I listened to every single fucking song they've ever recorded turned up as loud as it could go with my own headphones that are better than hers anyway, and I loved it. And I didn't love it just because she said I wouldn't. I loved it because it was loud and weird and wild and when I listened to it it made me feel like it's not crazy when so feel stuff so hard it's like my heart's gonna vibrate out of my body. And I would have told Jesse all this and we could have shared it, but I guess she thinks just because I like HTB and glitter and stuff, I don't have the capacity for anything else.

She clearly doesn't know me at all. So much for any kind of whatever, why would she ever want to kiss someone she clearly sees as like a stupid baby.

May 7, 2020

The dreams are getting weirder and they're happening more. I'm getting scared to go to sleep. Not that the dreams are always scary (they almost never are, or not scary like in a typically scary horror movie way). I mean, I've only ever been me. I don't know what other peoples' dreams are like.

The other night in one I was jumping on a trampoline, which is something I've never done in real life. I told Rose about it when I woke up, and she said "do you even know how to jump on a trampoline?" and I said "Rose, it's not like riding a bike. You don't have to learn. You just jump." and then we got into this whole thing about how some things we just know, and jumping's one of them, and how that's so weird. Sometimes I really like talking to Rose about stuff.

May 19, 2020

So, it's prom season in the real world. If I lived somewhere normal, my prom dress would be pink with lots of tulle and silk flowers at the shoulders, and it would fit perfectly and trying in dresses would be fun and not anxiety-inducing.

But since there are only like 10 teenagers currently in 7MV, were not having a homecoming. Cool.

May 27, 2020

So, mom came to visit this weekend, and I asked her about her prom. She was Typical Cecelia at first, very "Prom is a waste of time and money, Marin. It's a night when lesser people play dress-up to engage with their aspirations of grandeur." And I was like eyeroll forever and just stopped talking. BUT THEN she actually talked to me like a human being. She was like, "I actually didn't go to my prom" and when I asked her why she said that she didn't have a date, and was very self-conscious about it. I almost passed out at her admitting that she's ever been anything less than perfect.

DATING SUPER JUNIOR HEADCANON A⇴Z ⇴ Lee Hyukjae

A ⇴ AFFECTION

Hyukjae loves to be affectionate with you, he loves to hug you and make you feel special, no matter where the two of you are. He loves to receive affection from you, especially when you run your hands through his hair.

B ⇴ BEFORE DATING

It didn’t take long for the two of you to start talking, Hyukjae liked to talk to most people, and you were no different. But what was different, was how drawn to you he was. There was something about you that intrigued him and made him smile. He knew there was only one answer to what was causing him to feel that way, he was definitely falling for you.

C ⇴ CONFESSION

He was a nervous wreck before confessing to you, his confidence abandoned him completely as the two of you sat to dinner that night. He was terrified to tell you how he felt because he wasn’t sure how you felt. Luckily, as he told you how he felt, you were quick to let him know they were the exact same feelings that you felt for him. As you spoke, he couldn’t help but sigh in relief, reaching for your hand across the table.

D ⇴ DATES

Dates were always important to him, he always made sure to make an effort, even if it was just a night in at one of your houses. Most of the time he loved to take you to live events, concerts, dance shows, musical theatre, anything that involved music or dance were his favourites. But he also liked to show you the dedicated side of him too, he’d try hard to cook whenever you went to the dorm for a date night, and on special occasions he’d always make sure to book a table at a nice restaurant. He was up for anything with you, it never mattered where you were or what you did.

E ⇴ EXPERIENCE

He’d had a few dates, a couple of very brief relationships, but nothing serious ever came from anything previously to you. He was very dedicated to his work, and he wanted someone in his life that would appreciate that part of him. When the initial honeymoon phase went away, he often saw many people walk away from him, but you were different. For the first time he felt like he had something really special with you, he trusted you a lot more than anyone else and believed you when you told him you weren’t going anywhere.

F ⇴ FIGHTING

There had definitely been a few major arguments between the two of you, at times Hyukjae could be quite stubborn which meant solving an argument wasn’t easy. But you’d always find a way to figure things out too and talk about the properly. He could never focus properly at work knowing that you weren’t speaking to each other, although he’d never shout, he’d definitely make it clear that he believed he was in the right. He’d always get nervous when he eventually came home, but you’d soon apologise as soon as you saw him, as would he, there was no feeling worse than when the two of you weren’t speaking.

G ⇴ GETTING TO KNOW HIS FAMILY

You were very aware of how close his family were, especially his sister Sora. When Hyukjae told him, he had found someone they were excited to meet you as soon as they could, taking you by surprise. When they finally saw in person how smiley Hyukjae was with you around, they accepted you instantly and began to tell you all of Hyukjae’s embarrassing stories.

H ⇴ HOME

He’d moved back to the dorm as he hated being alone, there was no way he was going to move out again unless he had you there with him. After a few months, Hyukjae suggested that the two of you started looking for a place together. It was a big step for you both to take, but one he also knew he was more than ready for.

I ⇴ “I LOVE YOU”

Hyukjae was the first to say, ‘I love you,’ after coming back from a D&E promotion. You were all he’d thought about for the entire trip, it took a lot more out of him than he thought. The one thing he realised spending so much time away from you, was that he loved you. As soon as he saw you waiting at the airport his arms wrapped you and greeted you with those three special words.

J ⇴ JEALOUSY

He tries hard to mask his jealousy, but he definitely can get jealous. He comes across as confident, but he certainly has his own insecurities too and worries a lot when he sees you around other people. Your relationship is something he will protect to no end, if he feels threatened, he’s more than happy to walk up to you and kiss the top of your head or pull you closely into his side. He knows that you can get jealous too, with his work of line, it’s only natural, but he’ll always remind you that you’re the one he goes home too.

K ⇴ KIDS

Having children was something that Hyukjae had always wanted, he was always so good with kids at fan events. Once he found the right girl, he knew it was something he wanted to discuss quickly so he knew you’d want them too. Seeing him around children only confirmed how much of an amazing dad Hyukjae would become, after a little while in your own place, the two of you definitely decided that maybe it was time to think about kids.

L ⇴ LAUGHTER

You were drawn quite quickly to his laugh when the two of you first met, seeing the creases around his eyes and his wide mouth brought a smile to your face. He was incredible at making you laugh; he’d had plenty of practice throughout his years of presenting to know how to put a smile on someone’s face. At the end of a long day, he always knew how to make you smile and happy again. If the mood in the room was ever quiet or glum, you could always count on Hyukjae to come out with something to brighten everything back up again.

M ⇴ MISSING

He never wanted to be the boyfriend who struggled with even the slightest bit of distance, but he really did. It always felt lonely without you there, which had always been something he struggled with. Every time he went on tour, he made sure to leave you a shirt or a jumper that you could sleep with and remind you of him, whilst he also stole a bottle of your perfume to carry with him. He’d call you as often as he could in between his busy schedule, but when your time zones changed that wasn’t always so easy. Donghae especially would try and bring a smile back to his face, but it was never an easy task to stop him missing you.

N ⇴ NICKNAMES

Your nickname for him was fairly simple, ‘Hyuk,’ would normally be how you’d call him, similarly for him, he’d find a way to shorten your name that he liked, saving sweet nicknames for the times when they were really called for.

O ⇴ OBSESSION

He was obsessed with your body, he loved to have it nice and close to him to be able to hold. His hands would always be exploring, he just couldn’t help himself, he loved to try and push the boundaries.

P ⇴ PDA

It very much depended on his mood whether he’d be affectionate with you in public. He’d always at least hold your hand, but if he were needy or craving your attention, he wouldn’t be afraid to trail a few kisses along your neck to try and get your attention. You’d try and brush him aside, but he’d grip onto you a little bit tighter until he got his way.

Q ⇴ QUESTIONS

He’d often ask questions at night when the two of you began to sleep. That was when he had his most random thoughts, which he loved to hear your opinion on. The two of you spent hours staying up and talking about all sorts of theories and ideas.

R ⇴ RANDOM FACTS

On one of your first dates, you surprised him with a headband as you remembered him saying he hated how his hair covered his face on stage. Ever since then, he’d worn it for every performance, without fail. If his costume included a headband, he’d hide yours underneath, or if he were supposed to keep his hair messy, he’d wrap the band around his wrist. It slowly became a bit of a good luck charm for him that he never wanted to let go of.

S ⇴ SEX

Hyukjae is the perfect mix between very loving and very playful. He doesn’t let the mood get too serious very often, just like his affection, he likes to push the boundaries and see how much he can get away with. His hands are often all over your body, whilst yours tend to run through his hair as you know how much he loves the feeling. He always has the biggest smile on his face, unable to hide the blush on his cheeks.

T ⇴ TEXTS

Whenever a moment appears in his day, he’s usually checking his phone for a text from you. If there’s nothing there, he’ll find something to text you about, just so when he goes back to his phone again, he can see a text from you.

U ⇴ UNIVERSE

You were like the missing puzzle piece for Hyukjae. He had a great family, a career so good it felt like a dream, but he’d always missed out on love. That was where you came in, filling the void and giving him more to look forward to in the future.

V ⇴ VACATION

With the main group, the subgroup, Weekly Idol and his directing, there was barely a day free in his schedule. Holidays never bothered Hyukjae too much, but when he met you, he was determined to try and find a week, or even a few days, in the year where the two of you could go away. It didn’t matter where you both went; he was desperate for you to escape together for a while.

W ⇴ WHINING

If you weren’t paying attention to Hyukjae then he’d definitely whine, he’d pout across at you without taking a breath until you finally looked at him.

X ⇴ XXXXX

He loved to kiss you and sneak around you when you weren’t paying attention to you. His kisses were usually his way of telling you that he wanted you to spend a bit of time with him, or that he wanted a bit of reassurance. If you dared to deny him a kiss, he’d follow you around and get in your way with pouted lips until you finally kissed him. You’d always be able to feel his smile when his lips pressed to yours making you smile too.

Y ⇴ YOU

You were his best friend, the one who always made him smile.

Z ⇴ ZZZ

Falling asleep beside you was his favourite thing. He loved more than anything with your hand ran through his hair, it always helped him relax when he could feel your presence beside him as he fell asleep.

Aaah I loved your Maul nsfw alphabet! Can I ask for Savage?

A = Aftercare (what they’re like after sex)

He treats you like glass. He’ll carry you to the shower, and help you clean up before pulling you on top of his chest. He likes you sleeping on top of him rather than the mattress.

B = Body part (their favorite body part of theirs and also their partner’s)

He loves your tits. 110% boob man, and you can quote me on that. He loves reaching out and palming them in his massive hands. He loves how soft they are and how touching them makes you groan. He loves all your soft parts, but your breasts are his favorite.

For himself, he loves his arms. He knew, even before his transformation, what power they could hold. He knows you like them, and admire them while he fights. And he knows he can keep you safe in them.

C = Cum (anything to do with cum, basically)

Call it instinct, but he wants nothing more than to cum inside you every time. He loves watching as cum drips out of you pussy, coating his cock. You’re too full with him that some inevitably overflows.

D = Dirty secret (pretty self explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs)

As careful as he is and has delicately as he treats you, there is a part of him that wants nothing more than to just use you body. The need to fully let go and tear you apart with his cock is ever present. He just wants to keep you in bed and stuff you full of his cum again and again, until you pass out. And even then keep fucking you until you only smell of him and sex.

He keeps this entirely to himself, ashamed of this primal drive inside him.

E = Experience (how experienced are they? do they know what they’re doing?)

None before you. Personally I think the Nightsisters either kill or enslave whoever is chosen for a mate. That’s why Savage was adamant that Feral keep his head down. So between getting none on Dathomire and getting transformed by Mother Talzin, there hasn’t been an opportunity.

Maybe if there’s a weird coming of age ceremony for Nightbrothers, but I’m not sure.

F = Favorite position (this goes without saying)

You riding him. He’s very aware of his strength as is constantly worried about hurting you. Having you on top to set the pace eases his anxieties and allows him to actually enjoy the moment.

G = Goofy (are they more serious in the moment? are they humorous? etc.)

Not really. He’s not exactly the funniest guy out of the sheets, so that’ll be a negative between them too. He honestly get maybe a little too serious, and it’ll be up to you to break the tension.

H = Hair (how well groomed are they? does the carpet match the drapes? etc.)

Absolutely no hair down below. He doesn’t even need to shave. Zabraks are just like that.

I = Intimacy (how are they during the moment? the romantic aspect)

He is 110% focused on you when you’re having sex. Rough or slow, it doesn’t matter. He has to know you’re okay. Sometimes that means he’s too much in his own head, but it comes from a good place.

J = Jack off (masturbation headcanon)

Not as often as you would think. Even before being transformed, he didn’t do it that often, associating sex in general with the Nightsisters and what that might mean for him. After you’re together, he doesn’t really see the point. He has you.

K = Kink (one or more of their kinks)

As tempting as it is to say size kink (and it is very tempting), I’m actually going to say he’s neutral on the subject.

Praise kink is truly what gets him going. Knowing he makes you feel good. Knowing you love him. Knowing it’s him making you feel this way will send him more than anything else.

Also, sub 8.5/10. That’s just my theory.

L = Location (favorite places to do the do)

Anywhere. Seriously, anywhere. The man is not picky. The only thing he asks for is privacy, but other than that; against a wall, on a table, in your bed, in your shower, in the training room, where ever you want to have sex, he is down to clown.

M = Motivation (what turns them on, gets them going)

You asking for it. Seriously. You asserting yourself and telling him and you want him right then and there and he’s ready to go. It’s your choice to be with him. Your confidence to know what you want and when you want it, gets him going like nothing else.

Also, your smell. I’m not sure how else to put it. He loves the way you smell. If your sweating from exercise or training and he gets a good nose full, he’s taking you to bed right then and there.

N = No (something they wouldn’t do, turn offs)

No to BDSM. He doesn’t like the idea of hurting you for pleasure and he’s been too hurt to like it on himself. Pain doesn’t mix with pleasure in his mind. Pain is pain and pleasure is pleasure. That’s it.

O = Oral (preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc.)

God he loves giving. It’s so easy to get lost in your taste and sounds. The feeling of your hand clasping his horns sends him every time. There has been more than one night where he just keeps going, making you cum again and again with his mouth and fingers until either you tear him away or pass out from the pleasure. He gets a little enthusiastic.

As for him getting, he likes it, but the simple fact is, you can’t even begin to get him fully inside your mouth. Deep-throating is nearly impossibly with his ridged cock. Still the fact that you even offer is incredible to him.

P = Pace (are they fast and rough? slow and sensual? etc.)

Slow and sensual...at least at the start. If I haven’t made my point yet; he does not want to hurt you!!! He doesn’t fully trust himself to give you everything he’s capable of. But, the more you beg and plead and insist that you can take it, the more his resistance wains.

It takes a lot of trust to build between you two. Eventually though, he gives it to you as rough as you like, nothing more or less.

Q = Quickie (their opinions on quickies, how often, etc.)

Sometimes. It’s not his favorite thing, but sometimes there isn’t time for anything else, and you ask him so sweetly. Their fast and dirty against the wall before he’s called by Maul on a mission. They always leave you wrecked and him, a little less stressed.

R = Risk (are they game to experiment? do they take risks? etc.)

He’s really nervous when it comes to experimenting and doesn’t really have any interest in looking up stuff. If you find something you’d like to try and talk with him in detail before hand, he’ll do it. But, it does take a bit of convincing.

S = Stamina (how many rounds can they go for? how long do they last?)

He doesn’t last as long as you’d think, but his recovery time is insane. He cums between 10 to 15 minutes in, but he can keep going anywhere between 3 to you honestly lost count when you hit the double digits times a night.

You’re not sure exactly what Mother Talzin did, but you thank her every night.

T = Toys (do they own toys? do they use them? on a partner or themselves?)

That’ll be a no. He wants sex to be between you and him, no fancy silicon or anything else. He wants to be the one to make you cum, every single time.

U = Unfair (how much they like to tease)

Again, that’ll be a no. He doesn’t even bother to try. He wants nothing more than to please you. The minute you beg to cum, he’s at your mercy.

V = Volume (how loud they are, what sounds they make, etc.)

He makes the most animalistic sounds during sex. No coherent words, just a long string of grunts and growling, getting louder and louder until he all but howls when he cums.

W = Wild card (a random headcanon for the character)

He can smell your arousal. If you’re standing in a room with him, he knows the second you’re turned on. He’s not sure if Maul can sense it, but he can and it drives him crazy.

X = X-ray (let’s see what’s going on under those clothes)

Huge. Porn star huge. You can’t even get it fully inside you with out serious prep work, you can see it bulging inside you huge. Add on a three ridged cock like all other Zabaks and you’ve got the right idea. (insert link to Bad Dragon: Nova here because if I link anything outside of tumblr, I’m blocked from the tags)

Y = Yearning (how high is their sex drive?)

Not crazy high. His libido did not go up with his size. He can go for a while without sex and be okay. But when he is in the mood...clear your schedule.

Z = Zzz (how quickly they fall asleep afterwards)

It take him a good hour after sex to finally doze off. He just likes you hold you, listening to you talk until your words get slurred and you fall asleep on his chest. He allows himself to enjoy the heat and weight of your body on his own, to know that you’re real and here with him.

Theories & Predictions for Champion of the Titan Games

If you need a refresher on the full lore of the Fair Folk, do read my post about it. They’ll be quite relevant to these theories. Now, let’s read the theories! If you want anything explained, don’t hesitate to make a comment, or send an ask on anon if you’re shy. It’s weird to write everything down after just having it in my head for so long, so this might be long-winded and incoherent.

Ezabar, the Somber Knight, and Selona - I theorise that the Somber Knight is a lich. The Somber Knight has an especially dark reputation according to Henrick, and resides in catacombs (built by wizards even though Dragon Slayers generally have a distaste for wizards).

The air in his lair is markedly lifeless, though pure.

He is thought to be undead- something more “powerful and evolved” than a zombie or wraith- by Tanu and the public of Terrabelle. When he loses his leg and forearm, he isn’t in danger of dying, but makes his way back to his lair to regenerate. In popular culture, a lich keeps its soul in a reliquary. If destroyed, the lich would re-form at the location of its reliquary.

Like the Somber Knight, liches traditionally spend their time hidden from the world in their lair.

In Fablehaven, liches appear desiccated (like the ones on the Path of Dreams) or completely skeletal (like Calumbra or Ezabar) .Their touch also bruises- both would be good reasons for the Somber Knight to be completely encased in armour.

In Fablehaven, a lich is a type of undead (the lich Belrab used to be a wizard), who deliberately retains some of it’s former human will. Some are able to control lesser undead. I think that the Somber Knight, or Ryland as is his true name, was one of the Fair Folk, and think the Fair Folk had a role in placing him. I don’t think it’s really in question for him to have been a wizard- all Dragon Slayers hate dragons, and tend to distrust wizards. He also has a name that sounds like a Fair Folk name (Like Lockland), and resides under Terrabelle; he would have even been placed there at the same time the territory was established. Eve found his name from “the old stories”, and Lord Dalgorel asked him to help Eve even though only the caretakers of Wyrmroost are supposed to command him. Seth asks Ezabar if he’s a lich, and Ezabar concedes that “that is one label”. Ezabar asks Seth to find a piece of information for him in return for allowing him access to the prison. To help provide context, he explains that he used to live in Selona. It’s possible he lived there as a wizard, but I think that he lived there as one of the Fair Folk, because he asks Seth what became of a boy called Toleron, son of the Duke of Hester, whose mother was called Ingrid. It seems like a matter of personal importance to him. I think that becoming a lich or whatever higher form of undead might be more common among Fair Folk, or at least it doesn’t have the same taboo it seems to have for wizards. Oh, and I asked Brandon Mull if Fair Folk could become undead, and he said that they wouldn’t be normal undead, but could be liches or revenants. Those would be the forms of undead with their own will.

Wizard-Fair Folk Cooperation- Wyrmroost was established by Archadius, the first wizard. Wyrmroost has had several caretakers since its establishment, the fourth of which was Agad. Though the Fair Folk are neutral, there is a settlement of Fair Folk at every dragon preserve, with the three largest settlements being at the three with a Dragon Temple, and this is not common knowledge- perhaps deliberately so. These three preserves are also where the Sage’s Gauntlets, shield-that-repels-dragons, and harp-that-soothes-dragons are guarded by the dragons. The very talismans that helped defeat the dragons long ago. I suspect the Fair Folk are stationed in these locations to keep an eye on the dragons, and that they-at least formerly- are here to prevent the dragons from gaining power over the other races. Further proof that they have diplomatic priority- by “ancient treaty”, the defences of Blackwell Keep do not repel the coach of Stormguard Castle.

I also want to talk about the Sovereign Skull. If you don’t remember it, you can catch up on it here. I think that Selona was created by wizards primarily to house the Sovereign Skull, or at least the sphere it’s located in. I would equate it with Zzyzx, which had a physical location (Shoreless Isle) but was in reality its own realm. Selona would have a physical location in Europe (as Ezabar alluded to) but be its own country. It’s very secret- Eve declines to tell Kendra and Seth about it, Ezabar says it’s impossible to access, and Agad only reluctantly shares information about the location of the skull with Kendra. It makes sense- the Fair Folk enforce neutrality at Selona, and Lord Dalgorel was certain the dragons would need to “crush Selona”. “If our mother country falls, it could create a permanent imbalance, and unending age of dragons.” he says. The dragons mean to destroy the Sovereign Skull. I believe they are connected.

Humbuggle and Curses- What happened at Stormguard Castle is widely referred to as a curse by those who do not know what happened, and was created by Humbuggle. Serena, investigating the Nipsie curse, was last seen headed for Titan Valley, which is where Gabrinko said that Humbuggle’s Castle is. After all, it was Humbuggle, colluding with Graulas, who cursed the Nipsies. My theory is that the Nipsies are a cursed form of Fair Folk- that’s why nothing is ever designed with them in mind (think the Path of Dreams). Calvin says that Nipsies “used to be more powerful. And bigger. Maybe even as big as I am now”. But to curse them, he’d need a motive- I think it’s possible he intends to weaken the Fair Folk as a group. Another curse of his might’ve been the phenomenon in which “Almost no babies are being born anymore. Nobody is sure why.” Weakening the Fair Folk would benefit Humbuggle simply because they are a neutralising force, and of course curses are Humbuggle’s hobby.

Calvin and Humbuggle- I think that Calvin is either colluding with, or he is Humbuggle. I have only circumstantial evidence, but here it is. Look how these parallel one another-

“The curse came with a prophecy,” Calvin said.

“Tell me.”

“All nipsies can recite it:The curse arose from the demon’s blight; the lord who slays him will set it right.”

“It rhymes,” Seth observed.

“Most of the good ones do,” Calvin said. “Some strain more than others. But the basics are clear. Whoever kills the horrible demon will help lift the curse.”

And then these two scenes from Wrath of the Dragon King

“I suppose,” Humbuggle said. “I could also eat plain oatmeal every day to stay alive. An explanation is more pleasant when it rhymes. And a tad more official.”

“To keep the game fair, I will confess that the Wizenstone is jealously guarded by a powerful demon. Any who seek to claim the stone would have to ward off the demon before long.”

I also think it’s intriguing that right after showing Kendra how he morphed into Augie and Elouise, this exchange takes place:

“You’re sneaky,” Kendra said.

“Young one, you have no idea,” Humbuggle replied.

Bracken misses Calvin when he’s reading minds. They never check with the Nipsy elders that Calvin is legitimate. Camarat does not sense any darkness in him, but he is also unable to tell what Calvin is before he reveals himself. This is of note because in SotDS, Camarat is able to tell that the knapsack contains an “unconventional automaton and a hermit troll”, and is able to detect that Seth is a young shadow charmer. Gabrinko says he’s legitimate, but like @carolinelikesdinner said, he’s an outcast from his society and may be exiled for a good reason. He would also have access to Fablehaven- in the Caretaker’s Guide, it’s mentioned that there is a magical dwarf among the colony at Fablehaven, whose intentions are unknown.

Loose Things That I Want To Point Out

-Serena was “with a woman of human size”. I have no evidence, but intuition tells me she is Isadore, an enchantress mentioned in the Caretaker’s Guide.

-Ezarod was killed by Dromadus in dragon form. Dragons, when they become wizards, change their name. Liches are often former wizards. It’s possible, though unlikely, that Ezabar was in fact Ezarod.

-Celebrant’s wings make an unmistakable whistling sound when he approaches by air. I know Chekhov’s gun when I see it.

-The Roost is Wyrmroost Castle. The caretaker used to split time between it and the Keep. It was important enough to even have a scepter. However, I cannot find any other allusion to it, and we can only assume we will learn more in future books, meaning we will hopefully return to Wyrmroost.

Agad is a Shady Bitch- This isn’t a theory, but I have a couple of things I want to point out. First, don’t forget that Ryland thinks he may be:

“Agad became caretaker long after Wyrmroost was founded,” the Somber Knight said. “He was the fourth caretaker. Wizards love their secrets. It is possible he never knew the medallion derived power from a hidden scepter. If he did know, then you were set up to become caretakers, and to discover this knowledge on your own, so you would be forced to decide how to proceed without external influence, thereby assuming responsibility for all the associated risks and perils.”

Agad constantly warns Seth to stay away from the Blackwell. When he departs for Soaring Cliffs in WotDK, he warns Seth to stay away from the Blackwell. Marat, too, frequently warns Seth to stay away from the Blackwell. Of course, this is for the safety of himself and others- but he’s also one of the only people even capable of releasing the beings of the Blackwell.

Vanessa lists shades and haunts as ethereal restless beings, much like apparitions, phantoms, sky phantoms, specters, and wraiths. Shades and Haunts are said by Amulon to live in the Barrows, Lackluster Woods, and Adjoining Meadows- why weren’t the creatures of the Blackwell given their own domain like this? I have a very good reason- Agad’s grudge against the wizard-turned-lich imprisoned there. According to the Sphinx, Belrab is a powerful lich, and controls the other beings imprisoned there. This is eerily similar to the case of a Morisant; he was another dragon-turned-wizard-turned-lich, imprisoned along with his minions. (It’s never explicitly stated Morisant is a lich- but he matches all the requirements)

SO SFW AZ (Compass)

A: Affection (How affectionate are they with a s/o?)

Not necessarily during the wooing stage but after yes, much like with her sister you’re her soft spot. She is both verbal and physically affectionate and enjoys mumbling praises in your neck and almost always has her hand threaded in yours, is it inconvenient? Sucks for you.

B: Breath (What can their s/o do to take their breath away?)

Watching you work on hobbies. She loves when her s/o is so enraptured in something they forget the world around them. But this also means she’s eventually going to bug you when the feeling eventually overwhelms her and she needs to show you how she feels.

C: Cuddling (Do they cuddle? If they do, how and when do they cuddle?)

All the time. If it's inconvenient also too bad. Something of a lazy cat she is always curled up with, on or around you and she doesn’t mind at all if you are just as clingy. She encourages it in fact.

D: Dream (What do they dream of doing with their s/o?)

Bookshop. Compass wants to own a bookshop so she can sleep in the stacks and be entirely useless. You’re welcome to be useless with her. It's basically a library for all the sales you would make.

E: Effort (How much effort do they put into a relationship?)

None. She’s a go with the flow type, she’ll show you she cares but she isn’t going to beg or force people to stay. She is steady and deep but she doesn’t hold onto where she isn’t wanted.

F: Fear (What do they do if their s/o is scared? How do they handle it?)

She’ll tease you endlessly if it's something small. Something big and it’s probably the quickest you’ll see her move. She is brutal and efficient, doing the most and least to make sure whatever it is is gone. If its emotional she is actually very good at listening if you need it and comfort is freely given. Unfortunately she’s not great at offering solutions because she hasn’t found any for her own fears either.

G: Gifts (What type of gifts do they give their s/o? Do they want a gift in return?)

Er, yeah no. She isn’t the gift giving sort, not even on holidays, she can’t really be bothered with them and doesn’t necessarily care for them in return unless its something useful and even then. Once in a while she might surprise you with a pillow though, girl hordes pillows.

H: Hugs (Do they hug their s/o? How often?)

Always. Much like cuddling she loves hugging you, particularly hugging you and swinging you around till you shriek at her.

I: Intimacy (How romantic are they? Do they have problems with intimacy?)

She isn’t very romantic but every once in a while she’ll get a wild hair up her ass and knock you off your feet. And she is always intimate, all the time, even if its a problem. Better set those boundaries because emotionally or otherwise she is pretty much all over you.

J: Jealous (Do they get jealous? How do they act when jealous?)

Yup. But only because she has low self-esteem. She won’t act on it or say a word and you probably would never notice. It’s probably a good idea to talk about it down the road as she can eventually become distant if she feels there is someone better for you and you’re interested.

K: Kiss (Are they a good kisser? Do they like to kiss? How often do they try to kiss you?)

Very but she’s lazy. A kiss on your cheek might drag down to your neck, sounds sexy until you realize its because she literally can’t hold herself up and is slowly sinking down and just dragging her lips across your face. When she puts in effort though she prefers long enough kisses that will leave you gasping in her arms. She loves getting forehead kisses and she’ll ignore any comments on her blush.

L: Love (When do they say they love you? How often do they say it? Do they prefer to say it or show it?)

Compass isn’t going to say it till she’s sure you’re sure. She falls pretty quickly but nerves keep her from saying it and getting rejected. She tends to wait till you say it and then she is always whispering it to you but get her drunk and she’ll shout it to anyone who listens. But more often she’ll show it in small gestures rather than saying the words that always make her face glow like a candle.

M: Marriage (Do they want to get married? If so what kind of ceremony?)

Yes. But she probably won’t be the one to propose unless Maroon threatens they’ll do it for her. Compass is fairly lowkey (coughalsolazycough) so something simple is her own preference but she doesn’t mind something larger. Expect to meet resistance if you want a huge event though.

N: Night Out (What type of dates do they like to go on? How often do they like to go on them?)

She prefers stay at home dates but she’ll oblige in some more adventurous dates. She is very fond of museums and the like and bribe her with those and she’ll be ready before you finish asking.

O: Out of the Ordinary (What’s something they don’t normally do for/with their s/o?)

She isn’t the planing type but every once and awhile she’ll make a grand gesture but don't expect it to make a whole lot of sense to anyone but her. A lot of her plans are better left in theory than practice.

P: Playful (Are they playful in a relationship? If so, how do they play around/mess with their s/o?)

To an annoying degree. She takes great pleasure in being a pest. Jokes, pranks, being ridiculous are right up her alley. She would definitely offer you cat shit candy to see if you’d fall for it and only stop you before you actually eat it. If you need her to chill tell her.

Q: Questions (Do they ask their s/o their opinion on things? Do they share theirs?)

She won’t ask but you’re welcome to share. Compass is pretty stubborn and usually only does what she wants when she wants so don’t expect her to really take it to heart. She’ll tell you her opinions but much like with herself she doesn’t expect you to listen too much. And its not that she never will and with serious issues she will give way more but on day to day things, well, good luck.

R: Random (How spontaneous is their relationship? Do they do things on the spot or plan ahead?)

Lazy spontaneous? She isn’t big on planning and does whatever strikes her fancy but she’s also rather lazy and sometimes will give up on an idea or try to make it come to her rather than going and doing things.

S: Sleep (How do they sleep with their s/o?)

Like a cracked out octopus. She’s a rather light sleeper so nudge her to get her off otherwise she might wrap around you and drag you off the bed with her when she inevitably falls off it.

T: Trust (How much do they trust their s/o?)

It's hard won and slow going, it can take years sometimes for her to implicitly trust you with everything but give her the space to come to you. But as hard as getting in was, it is very easy to fall out of it but its not Compass you have to worry about. Maroon can and will ruin your life if they think you’re a threat or you hurt their sister.

U: Unique (What makes them unique as a s/o?)

The laziest skeleton you will ever date.

V: Vulnerable (How long until they can be vulnerable around their s/o? What are they like in this state?)

Much like her trust, it takes Compass a while to fully open up. When she does you’ll find she isn’t always as suave as she acts, her nerves are shot, and she is the biggest dork with a mind full of random facts about everything under the sun. She also blushes just as easy as anyone else but she’s better at tamping it down under magic, she’ll be less nervous about showing her blush (and her tum).

W: Wild Card (Random domestic headcanon)

Compass loves to read with you. A quiet moment and she’ll read to you softly and she is actually quite good at voices and making the stories come alive. She loves if you do that same in return and she lives for these little moments.

X: X-Ray (What would they do if their s/o got injured?)

Much like if you’re scared, Compass is suddenly a woman of action. The threat is gone or you are before it can do serious harm. She doesn’t quite trust Coffer but Maroon will have you patched up quick enough and expect a fierce and panicked lecture from Compass on why you can never get hurt again. If it’s emotional she kinda panics internally but she does her best, it's easier if you can give her directions she’ll remember for next time. If she’s overwhelmed she’ll drag Maroon over to help.

Y: Yuck (Do they have any pet peeves about their s/o? Are there any habits that might bother their s/o?)

Not really, you do you. If anything ever did bother her enough for her to kick up a fuss you’d know immediately because she’d tell you.

Z: Zeal (Are they passionate as a s/o? Do they want or like passion?)

Passionate might not be the right word but her feelings are intense and deep. More like an endless well as opposed to a roaring fire. While she appreciates watching passionate, strong wooing can and will overwhelm her and make her step back a bit.

L = Location (favorite places to do the do)

For the a to z headcanon thing, could you do otis driftwood and chop top for any letter(s) please? I love your writing!

I very much so can!! I’ve already done Otis so here is that !!

Thank you so much for the request and thank you for the sweet sweet compliment!

Heres some choptop lovin!

Headcanon Game - A to Z (NSFW)

A = Aftercare (What they're like after sex)

I know it's hard to believe but lemme tell you right now Choptop actually can show lotta compassion for his S/O. He may be a redneck ass Cannibal but he actually cares about you a lot. You're his precious little Sweetheart and he wants to make sure you're okay. If you need hugs, he will hug you and kiss you and squeeze you until your eyeballs POP out. If you need a bath, he will most certainly arrange that...somehow. Hey, it's not my job to figure out the logistics of the Sawyer family bathing while living in an abandoned amusement park,, again, not my job. My job is simply just to make your fantasies come true smut wise. Capiche?

B = Body part (Their favorite body part of theirs and also their partner's)

Hmmm, I'm not entirely sure why but I've got it in my head that Chop top finds his neck relatively attractive. Although on you,, oh god don't make him choose. For the love of Christ don't make him choose! He's so obsessed with your body in its entirety he doesn't know what to do. From your lips to your thighs-- it's all just perfect.

C = Cum (Anything to do with cum basically... I'm a disgusting person)

THICC. This stuff is hot, sticky and so so sweet and lemme tell you,,, there is TONS of it.

D = Dirty Secret (Pretty self-explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs)

I dunno if it's fair to out him like this, really I don't think it is but I can tell you right now that Choptop hold's a dirty secret regarding him, a busted door lock and Drayton. I'll let you put those pieces together to look at THAT puzzle.

E = Experience (How experienced are they? Do they know what they're doing?)

I don't think Chop top has a lot of Experience but he does try. I feel like he can pick up on the flow of things pretty quickly. Out of Nubbins, Bubba and Him I think he is the one who can pick up on social cues pretty quickly. If you're hinting at wanting to try out Oral he can usually string the pieces together and figure out whatcha want.

F = Favourite Position (This goes without saying. Will probably include a visual)

Ride !!!! Him !!! Look hear me out, I think Chop Top has the most intense Worship kink. He is obsessed with admiring your body and if you're riding him and he doesn't have to do much? He gives him the perfect opportunity to sit back and enjoy the view.

G = Goofy (Are they more serious in the moment, or are they humorous, etc)

A good balance for Chop Top. It really depends on his partner. If you want a more serious in the moment experience, he will give you that 100% but if it comes more like a fun spur of the moment kinda thing I think he can crack a few jokes here and there.

H = Hair (How well-groomed are they, does the carpet match the drapes, etc.)

I feel like a broken record. None of these slashers Shave!! I don't know what else you want me to say, they just don't care about pubic hair the way people might think they do. They don't. Seriously.

I = Intimacy (How are they during the moment, romantic aspect...)

Again, it's really up to you. Despite him being chaotic I feel like he's got a soft side on him when it comes to you. If you really want to have an intimate moment with him he will do his very best to provide you with that. He'll call you sweet pet names and worship your perfect body. Yeah. Lots of that.

J = Jack Off (Masturbation headcanon)

Ooooh okay, so I feel like Choptop is really secretive about his Masturbation habits. He claims he doesn't but he's absolutely in love with doing so.

K = Kink (One or more of their kinks)

Someone has a Queening and Worship kink and I can tell you it's not me.

L = Location (Favourite places to do the do)

Literally, any place he can get away from his stinky family.

M = Motivation (What turns them on, gets them going)

While Dirty talk is a big turn on, Surprise him!! Dress up for him!! Got anything new and sexy? Put it on, ask him what he thinks about it!! He'll probably tell you it's lovely but would probably look better on the floor.

N = NO (Something they wouldn't do, turn-offs)

Choptop is not a fan of Anal as a concept just...hngeueri. He also probably isn't fond of the idea of threesomes. Maybe it comes from insecurity or maybe a place of wanting to protect you from other prying eyes.

O = Oral (Preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc)

Chotop has an oral obsession!! He adores giving and receiving!! But mostly giving, nothing and I mean NOTHING gets him more excited than to see you squirming and whining as he uses his tongue on you!! However,, he wouldn't admit to this but he does enjoy receiving...he won't pressure it but he does enjoy it.

P = Pace (Are they fast and rough? Slow and sensual? etc.)

It's all on you sweetheart!! If you ask him to do it Fast and rough he will certainly rip you apart but if you'd like to have that slow and Sensual moment,,, he can also arrange that.

Q = Quickie (Their opinions on quickies rather than proper sex, how often, etc.)

Hmmm. It's complicated. With as busy as he is, Quickies are convenient but nothing beats proper sex. Again, he'll engage in a Quickie if you're desperate for him but he'd honestly rather wait till you've both got some free time so he can do it right.

R = Risk (Are they game to experiment, do they take risks, etc.)

Hell yes!!!! Choptop is so game to experiment and take risks!! Any kink you might have he's down to try. Any position you wanna try, he'll give it a shot. He'll pretty much try anything if you ask him to.

S = Stamina (How many rounds can they go for, how long do they last...)

Between you and me this boy has some Stamina. Choptop could honestly go for days if you let him and he lasts awhile. It takes him a hot minute...or a hot couple of hours to finally get himself off. If you have a high sex drive please just know Choptops is higher.

T = Toy (Do they own toys? Do they use them? On a partner or themselves?)

Choptop doesn't have any,, however, if you've got any toys and want to experiment a little bit- he is so totally down to give that a shot !!

U = Unfair (how much they like to tease)

Choptop likes teasing in theory but he's terrible at it. Absolutely terrible at it. He tries to tease you really hardcore but he can't help himself!! He just wants to see you naked and all tied up in him!

V = Volume (How loud they are, what sounds they make)

Huh? Sorry, I can't hear you, my hearing is messed up because of all the groaning.

Oh, yeah Choptop can get really loud when it comes to sex from the moaning, groaning, growling and panting he's just a really loud guy.

W = Wild Card (random headcanon)

Choptop is one to enjoy a good smash with some music if you get my drift.

X = X-Ray (Let's see what's going on in those pants, picture or words)

Well...I'm sure you'd like to hear all about that fully erect seven-inch dick all up in there right?

Y = Yearning (How high is their sex drive?)

I've said it once I'll say it again, Choptop has a stupid high sex drive. A ridiculously high one.

Z = ZZZ (... how quickly they fall asleep afterward)

Not very. He makes sure you are okay and calmed down before sleeping is even a thought. It doesn't matter how long it takes. You sleep before him. Got it?

Will There Really Be a Coronavirus Baby Boom? Here’s What the Science Says

In the last few weeks, I’ve seen a ton of headlines predicting a massive baby boom stemming from the COVID-19 coronavirus situation, with some making very bold claims. Case in point: “It’s probably going to be the biggest baby boom we’ve seen," Dr. Kevin Kathrotia recently told Fox Business.

But will the coronavirus baby boom really come to pass? Let’s take a look at what the research says.

The basis for a lot of these claims comes from studies finding that baby booms are linked to various catastrophes and natural disasters. For example, some research has found a statistical link between hurricane advisories and birth rates in coastal areas [1]. This is probably why Dr. Kathrotia also told Fox Business that "anytime there’s the threat of a hurricane, there’s a little baby boom."

However, it’s not quite as simple as that. What the research actually shows is that low-level advisories (like a tropical storm watch) are linked to increased birth rates, whereas severe advisories (like a hurricane warning) are actually linked to decreased birth rates. In other words, when natural disasters become more severe, the odds of a baby boom actually seem to go down.

Of course, it’s difficult (if not impossible) to extrapolate from hurricane research to the current coronavirus situation. Whereas hurricanes are very time-limited events localized in specific areas where people have opportunities to escape, the coronavirus is a worldwide issue, we don’t know how long we’re going to be grappling with the effects of it, and there’s no escape from it. In other words, these situations aren’t very comparable, so I’d be hesitant to generalize from one to the other.

In addition to natural disaster research, there is also some work finding a link between terrorist acts and baby booms, including an increase in births in Oklahoma County in the period after the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing [2]. Again, though, it’s hard to draw parallels between that and the coronavirus crisis because these are drastically different situations. Also, not all terrorist events have been linked to baby booms, which raises questions about this hypothesis.

For example, while the media widely prognosticated a baby boom following 9/11, it didn’t actually come to pass.

That said, theoretically, there are certainly some good reasons to predict that the coronavirus pandemic will increase rates of sexual activity. For example, let’s think about this through the lens of Terror Management Theory. The basic idea behind this theory, as I describe in my book The Psychology of Human Sexuality, is that “when we are reminded of our own mortality, we subconsciously alter our attitudes and behaviors in order to help us cope with the ‘terrifying’ prospect of our eventual death.”

Some research has found that when we are faced with the prospect of our own mortality, this prompts sexual desire and behavior as a coping mechanism [3]. Put another way, sex is one way that some people seek to reduce and relieve anxiety about existential crises.

So to the extent that the coronavirus is making our mortality more salient, it’s not unreasonable to think that it just might prompt more sexual behavior, which could have implications for the birth rate down the line.

Also, taking a look at the broader picture, many people are in lockdown mode right now. Businesses are closed and there’s no choice but to stay home. To the extent that work-related pressures are reduced and people have more leisure time, that also creates more potential opportunities for physical intimacy, assuming you have a live-in spouse or partner, of course.

At the same time, however, the coronavirus appears poised to throw the economy into recession and that’s going to create a lot of economic uncertainty. If people are preoccupied with how they’re going to pay their bills and are worrying about whether their jobs are going to be there when all of this is said and done, that would create strong pressures against childbearing and promote more consistent contraceptive use. Put another way, if people are focused more on basic survival right now, bringing new kids into the picture might be seen as highly risky.

Similarly, something else that makes this situation unique is that so many schools across the country are closed, which means parents who are tele-working also suddenly have to care for their kids 24/7. That situation is one that could very well inhibit physical intimacy, and I’ve heard many parents on Twitter who have already said something to that effect. They describe the current situation as a strong deterrent to sex and, especially, to having more children.

On top of that, it’s also worth noting that, today, access to highly-effective, reversible contraceptives (not just birth control pills, but also IUDs and implants) is greater than ever before. This gives people a lot more power and control over pregnancy, thereby allowing them to sexually engage without the risk of unintended pregnancy. Condoms can also be shipped discreetly to your door, even in the midst of this pandemic (thanks, Amazon!). Increased access to contraceptives may therefore play a role in limiting any potential baby boom.

I should also mention that the current lockdown situation will be a deterrent to dating and casual sex, which will place yet another limit on conception possibilities. So even if there’s an increase in sexual activity and conception among partnered folks, a decline in casual sex would provide a partial counterweight to that.

In short, there are a lot of competing forces at work here, so it’s difficult to say with any degree of certainty what’s going to happen. Given the severity, widespread impact, and uncertainty created by the COVID-19 coronavirus, I wouldn’t say it’s a foregone conclusion that there will be a baby boom in the next nine months, let alone the “biggest boom we’ve seen.”

In fact, there’s also the possibility that we could even see a delayed coronavirus baby boom. If I had to place my money on something, that’s where it would be. In other words, rather than conceptions peaking now, perhaps we’ll see them rise once the virus is under control, the economy is in recovery, and the outlook (for having children and for life in general) is more optimistic.

hi heres a thing.

(She sure is! This profile is frankly pretty sparse, so most of my comments are going to be vision-focused as opposed to character-focused.) -SA (Design-wise I think she’s pretty solid, though I would recommend making her scheme a bit darker. Alternian trolls reallllllly like using Black for everything, but otherwise she’s totally in line with the Indigos we’ve met via Troll Call, especially the white accents.)

Alternia or Beforus or some type of AU?: Alternia Name: Vikter Physus Vikter is the troll version of “Victor” (reference to Victor Frankenstein) (also yeah i was that one anon) and Physus because…science (i didn’t have any other ideas)

(I talk about over-commitment to gimmick a lot, which is the source of a lot of the problems I find with fantrolls. However, with Vikter, I think your main conceptual problem right off the bat is a lack of a focus. You have a stock character here: Zany Scientist, that you’ve converted into a troll, but you haven’t done a ton with it to expand her as a character.) (I think this starts in the name: Maybe it’s my own background speaking, but people don’t really do all science. “Science” is so broad that you can’t do it all. You claim to base her off of Victor Frankenstein, but very rarely allude to the things that Sir Frankenstein was into- Alchemy, Immortality, Playing God, and the Creation Of Life Ex Nihilo.) (I think you should focus a bit more on the Chemist Motif you have playing through her character- focus a bit more on alchemy (and later in SGRUB, Alchemization maybe?) to help keep her together.) Age: 6 Sweeps Fetch Modus: Chem. Modus You have to combine the right elements to get your items

(This but with some classic Adventure Game Moon Logic. She’s got like, the tears of a clown, solid mercury, and a screaming duck. Good luck.) Strife Specibus: Not sure

(An easy option is to have her make concoctions and throw ‘em at people! Helps keep her chemistry focus relevant.) Symbol and Meaning: Sagipia (Indigo + Derse + Light)

(Since this character has so little meat to her, I’m not going to suggest alternates to this: I’m going to give you guidelines to make her fit this.) (Indigos have a habit of being a bit job-obsessed, theming themselves around a particular occupation. Vikter’s got this in spades. However, they’re also known for being a bit full of themselves and self-important, coupled with an unfortunate lack of tact. While ordinarily I’d recommend straying a little from this to make your character more unique- Vikter’s Mad Scientist shtick wants all of these traits. A little powermad, more than a little pride...) (Derse Players are tumultous. They can’t sit still and let things pass them by. For Vikter, she’d need a bit more dissatisfaction, a bit more rebellion boiling in her blood. Victor Frankenstein was a Derse player, probably. He was constantly trying to push the envelope, trying to defy God and create life without divine intervention from the bodies of the dead. The fact that he succeeded should probably tell you a little about the drives of most Derse players. Derse players also don’t like revealing their true selves- perhaps there’s an element of artifice or pretension to her Mad Scientist self? Maybe she puts it on as a way of getting attention, of stealing the spotlight from other researchers?) (This leads me into my next point: Light players. Light player want the spotlight, even in passive classes. Sometimes it just kind of happens to them, but more often than not they seek it out and revel in it. Vikter’s going to need a bit more megalomania, I feel. She’s a Noble Blood AND a Light player? You know who was ALSO both of these things? Vriska. Vriska is the prototypical light player for good reason. She does it all, and with style. But if you want other Dersites, look no further than Rose Lalonde, Derse Seer of Light, who’d rather throw herself to the Void than give up her spot on the center stage.) Pesterchum: superciliousTechnologist (ST)

(Here’s where I come back to a lack of focus: Technologist? When? Where? Nowhere in this profile does it hint at Vikter being into tech of any sort, even if it’s been seen in Indigos before. “Supercillious” draws a point I made before: a need for this character to be a bit haughty and self-important.) Quirk: Letters are separated into squares like elements on the periodic table. [T][h][e] [Q][u][i][c][k] [r][e][d] [F][o][x] [J][u][m][p][e][d] [O][v][e][r] [T][h][e] [L][a][z][y] [D][o][g] (While this is thematic, I worry this would be a NIGHTMARE to type, and it doesn’t scan super well. Perhaps we could change her surname to a specific element, and have her bracket those? Like “Ferous” for Iron and [Fe] for the letters?) Lusus: A Bear, because they represent knowledge n all. (...Do... do they? Where is this coming from? I have never heard this in my life: Bears are often culturally symbols of strength and guardianship. You say this offhand like it’s obvious but? I have zero idea where this comes from.) (From what we’ve seen as well, Indigo lusii tend to be ungulates, things like Horses and Zebras and Goats.) Personality: She’s eccentric, but a bit self centered. She only really acts violent when it’ll benefit her (ex. experimenting on trolls). She’s only close too a few trolls, and cares deeply for those said few. (Bluebloods don’t usually have that kind of self-control. Aradia became violent just from having blue blood running through her robot body, remember. Is there a reason her self-control is so good? You could build a story here instead of discarding it.) Interests: Science of course!, and debating. (This NEEDS to be separated into Chemistry, first of all. What other parts of Science intrigue her? Ethics? Transhumanism? Biology? Athletic Science?) (I like the idea of her liking to debate people as a method to shout them down and prove her superiority. I bet she loves yelling at people on Troll!Twitter.) (What else is she interested in? Remember that Equius also was a blueblood with a love of science, and yet that wasn’t his entire thing. He liked robotics, and converting people to his view of the hemospectrum, and bodybuilding, and archery...) Title: Maid of Light (Maid. Interesting. Maid forces you to write her as someone who CREATES the spotlight around herself who provides and is self sufficient. I don’t have enough here to tell you that it’s a good or bad idea, but if you flesh her out more, I think she could grow into it. Inversing to a Bard of Void, passively destroying doubt and mystery by relentless SCIENCE! seems like a solid game plan.) Land: Land of Sparks and Theories Dream Planet: Derse (Check my Sign Comments for this.) (By the way, I would love to see an expanded form of Vikter in the future! Hopefully my comments here and there will give you a springboard to broaden her and make her a more cohesive, fully realized character!) -SA

John Lee Hooker Guitar Lesson Boom Boom

Boom Boom John Lee Hooker Guitar Lesson

If you love the blues, you're going to love today's lesson. You'll be getting a John Lee Hooker guitar lesson to play a call and response style blues song in the style of the blues legends Boom Boom. He played it hundreds of different ways, and after the lesson, you'll be able to play it in many ways as well after you see the video.

This is a relatively simple lesson, as it's all about the rhythm and really feeling the blues. No fancy licks or chords needed today. Our guitar lesson on Boom Boom will start out with a quick blues theory recap, namely the 12 bar blues form and the I - IV - V chords you use in the key of E, so E - A - B. Next in the John Lee Hooker guitar lesson, you'll learn about the call and response style of music, which is basically a succession of 2 distinct phrases. You have a call phrase, which is sort of answered with another phrase. It's loads of fun to play like this by yourself, and even better with another musician, be it a guitarist or singer. And with all that out of the way, the real meat of the lesson will start. You will learn to play 6 call and response phrases you can use to play a full 12 bar blues song. What's more, you'll learn the underlying theory behind it all, so you'll be able to take things further and make up your own phrases as well using the minor pentatonic scale. Here is an outline of the 12 bars: 1st call - slides in minor pentatonic and land on E 1st response - simple E0 - E3 - A0 - E0 or better yet, the lowest strings of the chords E - G - A - E 2nd call - still on E chord of 12 bar blues, repeat 1st call 2nd response - repeat 1st reply 3rd call - on the A chord, use the 1st call phrase but land on A note 3rd response - same reply idea, so reply the same way but 1 string higher A0 - A3 - D0 - A0 or with chords 4th call - back to an E chord riff 4th response - same response as before 5th call - now we're on the B chord, vary it up on the E minor pentatonic scale, land on the B 5th response - could do A2 - D0 - D2 - A2 or simple B7 strums followed by A strum 6th call - back to E chord riff 6th response - E minor pentatonic riff As you go further into the John Lee Hooker guitar lesson you'll see that all of the riffs in the song are played in 1 position of the minor pentatonic scale. You can vary the licks any way you like on the E minor pentatonic blues scale, just land on the note of the chord. Towards the end of the John Lee Hooker guitar lesson, I'll even show you a chord progression and strumming pattern you could use if you play along with the original track.

I think you should do ALL THE ASKS :D

WELL ALL RIGHT THENA - Ships that you currently like a lot. (They don’t have to be OTPs because not everyone has OTPs.) Friendships, pairings, threesomes, etc. are allowed.1) DCAU TimSteph2) ItsuHaru3) Logan x Diana Prince4) Itsuki Koizumi x Kyouya OotoriB - A pairing–platonic, romantic or sexual–that you initially didn’t consider, but someone changed your mind.*looks at WonderWolf and SuperBats*C - A ship you have never liked and probably never will.BatCat. Even back when I wasn’t a fan of Batman I remember I read one DCAU comic involving Catwoman, and her character just didn’t appeal to me.D - A pairing you wish you liked but just can’t.Any Kagepro ships tbh. Idk I’m just not really invested in the romance of the series. I prefer them all as friends/platonic.E - Have you added anything cracky/hilarious to your fandom? If so, what?Ahaha… I’ve contributed a fair bit of Kagecrack through vids/posts, though I think my favorite are these BTAS crossover edits.Also Kyorange and Skitzo!Kyon for TMoHS. (Plus the “genderbent cast is the previous generation” theory if that counts?)F - What’s the longest you’ve ever been in a fandom?Well I’ve been a Pokémon fan since elementary school. While I no longer watch the show/play the games, I still follow the new generations and RP on occasion.G - Have you ever had an OTP? If so, do you remember your first one? Who was in it?Eeyup. While I don’t ship too often, when I do I ship HARD. ItsuHaru was my first real “obsessive” OTP, but I think the honor for the *very* first ship I had goes to… Cody x Ken from Digimon S2, in a sense. *shot* ^^; Idk I was just really focused on the idea of them making up and becoming “friends”. XP Though I also shipped Ken with Kari too bc of the Dark Ocean stuff. (Also Gary Oak x Molly Hale from Pokémon but that’s a whole other story. >.>; )H - What is your favorite source text for fandom stuff (e.g., TV shows, movies, books, anime, Western animation, etc.)?I’m still mostly a weeb so animu is my go-to, but I’ve been branching out to more Western stuff lately. (Although when it comes to Kagepro the songs are still the best medium. =3=)I - Has Tumblr caused you to stop liking any fandoms, if so, which and why?Steven Universe. While I still love the show, hearing about all the toxicity in the fandom really turned me off so I just try to avoid it.J - Name a fandom you didn’t think about until you saw it all over Tumblr. (You don’t have to care about it or follow it; it just has to be something that Tumblr made you aware of.)Again, Steven Universe. Also Over the Garden Wall and Bojack Horseman (the former of which I still really recommend you see).K - What character has your favorite development arc/the best development arc?I’m also gonna say Sunset Shimmer from Equestria Girls. She went from being a seemingly one-off villain to a fully redeemed good guy and leader in her own right. Though she still has her insecurities, it lets her relate to and help others in the same situation to not let those feelings of inadequacy or jealousy overcome them.Also Midna from Twilight Princess. Her change of heart from servicing her own needs to selfless sacrifice after observing how hard Link tried to save others mirrors my own feelings when I met Link in OoT/MM and watched him grow into a true hero, working to help both the people of Hyrule and Termina even when he had no obligation or was openly blamed for Ganon’s rise to power.L - Say something genuinely nice about a character who isn’t one of your faves. (Characters you’re neutral about are fair game, as are characters you merely dislike. Characters that you absolutely loathe with the fire of ten thousand suns are exempt, as there is no point in giving yourself an aneurysm over a character that you hate.)So I’m not a big fan of Dick Grayson in the DCAU (or any of his animated adaptations aside from Lego Batman; his YJ version being especially egregious) since I see him as rather childish and bad at dealing with conflict, but he’s admittedly a lot better in the tie-in comics, which give him some much needed development as Nightwing (whereas he barely got any screentime in TNBA). There he acts as a genuine big brother to Tim, and is shown to not be as nearly as bitter at Bruce as the Old Wounds ep would have one believe. I also like that they highlight Dick’s fondness for music, wherein his musical knowledge actually comes in handy to solve a couple cases.M - Name a character that you’d like to have for a friend.All of the Mekakushi Dan, SOS Brigade, or Host Club tbhN - Name three things you wish you saw more or in your main fandom (or a fandom of choice).1) More Kagepro content in general2) More DCAU TimSteph 3) More ItsuHaru

O - Choose a song at random. Which ship or character does it remind you of?Growing Up - Run River NorthDefinitely a Timmy Todd/TimSteph song now that I think about it. Especially the lines “I found my way without your help, with a broken family” and “monsters in my head”. ;(P - Invent a random AU for any fandom (we always need more ideas).…Tbh I’m really liking the “Legion x Ouran” idea lately. XD *shot*Q - A fandom you’ve abandoned and why.Hm… I don’t think there are any I’ve really “abandoned”, per se. Most of them are still there, just not at the forefront anymore.R - Which friendship/platonic relationship is your favorite in fandom?All the relationships in Kagepro *shot*S - Show us an example of your personal headcanon (prompts optional but encouraged)Molly Hale from the third movie is the god of the Pokémon world. Just… don’t ask lol.T - Do you have any hard and fast headcanons that you will die defending?Already answered, but I’ll add a few of my favorites for DCAU TimSteph:1) Tim cuts his own hair after RotJ (or rather just lets it grow long) since he doesn’t trust anyone else with sharp objects around him. Steph is the first person he allows to trim his hair for him (even though she has no experience with it either), since I imagine him feeling comfortable enough around her that he even falls asleep like Sousuke does with Chidori in Full Metal Panic! The Second Raid. (For context, he was raised as a soldier from an early age and this is what happened when they tried to take him to a salon. Played for laughs, but probably an accurate portrayal of people suffering from anxiety/PTSD having to deal with mundane tasks that trigger them.)

2) Similarly, Steph plays piano to help calm Tim down whenever he’s having a panic attack.3) After RotJ Tim refuses to wear red for a long time until Steph knits him a red scarf and tells him it “suits him” bc red is the color of heroes.

As an aside, I also recently like the idea that Logan was at Lex’s party in the DCEU and saw Bruce and Diana together, based on this playlist that I made. U - Three favorite characters from three different fandoms, and why they’re your favorites.Gonna talk about a few I don’t mention too often nowadays.

1) Link from The Legend of ZeldaLink will forever be my greatest true love. He’s the first real “hero” I believed in, and he honestly changed my life at one point to actually want to be a better person. While that faith has faded and I don’t think I can ever reach his example, I still wish I had that kind of courage and kindness - or at least be able to inspire others in the same way he did me.2) Meroko Yui from Full Moon wo SagashiteIf Link was the first (and only) person I ever truly fell in love with, Meroko was the one who taught me what “true love” was in the first place. I won’t say too much since I still sincerely hope you will check out the series someday, but suffice to say there’s a scene towards the end where she makes a choice that shows how much she has personally grown, and come to understand what it really means to “love” someone wholeheartedly.

3) Gary Oak from PokémonThis is a bit of an odd one, but Gary is a character I related to a lot when I was an adolescent since, of the main series cast, he was the first and one of few to really change his “status quo” by quitting training and deciding to become a researcher instead. In my eyes it seemed like a shockingly conscious choice to “grow up” in a world where you can ostensibly remain a “child” forever, and I both admired and deplored him for it (especially at that tender transitory age I was going through at the time, where it feels like you’re being forced to “become an adult” whether you want to or not).

V - Which character do you relate to most?Already answered.W - A trope which you are virtually certain to hate in any fandom.Romance in general is really not my thing, so I dislike when it’s the focus/the writers feel the need to pair every character. I’d rather leave things open-ended most of the time.X - A trope which you are almost certain to love in any fandom.Family/friendship stories + tragic adopted children wanting to be heroesY - What are your secondhand fandoms (i.e., fandoms you aren’t in personally but are tangentially familiar with because your friends/people on your dash are in them)?X-Men, Kingdom Hearts, Dangan Ronpa, Fate/Stay Night, Various Magical Girl series, Various RPG Horror games

Z - Just ramble about something fan-related, go go go! (Prompts optional but encouraged.)I feel like I’ve rambled enough already phew. OTL Thanks for asking though. =P

Will There Really Be a Coronavirus Baby Boom? Here’s What the Science Says

In the last few weeks, I’ve seen a ton of headlines predicting a massive baby boom stemming from the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic—and some people are making very bold claims. Case in point: “It’s probably going to be the biggest baby boom we’ve seen," Dr. Kevin Kathrotia recently told Fox Business.

But will the coronavirus baby boom really come to pass? Let’s take a look at what the research says.

Of course, it’s difficult (if not impossible) to extrapolate from hurricane research to a pandemic like the one we’re experiencing now. Whereas hurricanes are very time-limited events localized in specific areas where people have opportunities to escape, the coronavirus is a worldwide issue, we don’t know how long we’re going to be grappling with the effects of it, and there’s no escape from it. In other words, these situations aren’t very comparable, so I’d be hesitant to generalize from one to the other.

In addition to natural disaster research, there is also some work finding a link between terrorist acts and baby booms, including an increase in births in Oklahoma County in the period after the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing [2]. Again, though, it’s hard to draw parallels between that and the coronavirus crisis because these are such drastically different situations. Also, not all terrorist events have been linked to baby booms, which raises questions about this hypothesis.

For example, while the media widely prognosticated a baby boom following 9/11, it didn’t actually come to pass.

Similarly, something else that makes this situation unique is that so many schools across the country are closed, which means parents who are tele-working also suddenly have to care for their kids 24/7. This situation is one that could very well inhibit physical intimacy, and I’ve heard many parents on Twitter who have already said something to that effect. They describe the current situation as a strong deterrent to sex and, especially, to having more children.

In addition, it’s worth mentioning that access to highly-effective, reversible contraceptives (not just birth control pills, but also IUDs and implants) is greater today than ever before. This allows people to sexually engage with a very low risk of unintended pregnancy. Also, condoms can now be shipped discreetly to your door, even in the midst of this pandemic (thanks, Amazon!), which removes barriers caused by embarrassment about buying them. Altogether, this increased access to contraceptives will play a role in limiting potential baby booms linked to catastrophes and natural disasters.

Lastly, I should also mention that the current lockdown situation will be a deterrent to dating and casual sex, which will place yet another limit on possibilities for conception. So even if there’s an increase in sexual activity and conception among partnered folks, a decline in casual sex would likely provide a partial counterweight to that.
