Shout out to young JM who wanted Jk so bad it had him looking like a stage 3 clinger & shout out to Jk who has done everything in his power to keep that beautiful man once he had him & now a stage 6 clinger. Congrats. I keep thinking about when they were in NY the Megan BTB & how all those bags are sitting there & Jk instinctively grabs 2 and you see JM realizing Jk has his & doesn't have to get one, when the other members are holding theirs. SNIFFS. Its Jj carrying JM's bags & his shoes when they come off his feet. Rubbing his shoulders at any given point, cause one he wants to touch JM, but also knows JM is in pain all the time. Its him cooking the biggest pancake for JM & telling JM of course, you know I'll do it, when JM asked him to cook for him. Or only buying birthday presents for JM. Its him telling JM in front of the world, I'm your fan & hyping everything he does. Its him wanting to cut something cause he doesn't want JM's hand to get hurt or when Vmin were playing with a yoyo, it was JM who was given a lecture on Safety by Jk, about his fingers hurting & this is how accidents happen. Not a word when Tae was playing with it, but the minute JM gets it, his anxiety & boyfriending kicked in, just like when Tae was gonna flip his food & Jk said don't fling it at JM. Jk Coming after Suga with a Frying pan. Bulldozing RM out the way messing with JM. Physically moving Suga away from JM. Bulldozing past Tae to stand directly in front of JM & stare directly at him, when he was thanking Army for an award. Damn, he's just giving a TY speech, not accepting a nobel peace prize, Calm down. The way he guides JM walking up the steps or lets him walk ahead of him. The way he could hear the nervousness in JM's tone & he turns & nods and stares JM down giving his UN speech. Just reassuring JM with his little head nod, I'm here, beside you, you got this & if you notice it was when Jk turned to him when JM let out that deep breath/shudder & said sorry & had to shake it off. Just seeing JK's reassurance almost caused him to loose it. The way the others teased JM over it & Jk jumped to his defense, ready to take on all his Hyungs, but it was him in the end, who couldn't remember when he took a picture with Tae & said it was the day JM said sorry, it was all that stuck in his head. Every little detail he remembers. Even Jimin's grandma's birthday. There within 1 minute when JM called him on his bday live, dropping everyone. Even When he's missing JM he takes it public in front of millions and shows where his heart lies. Who owns his heart. Who he loves & doesn't care if he looks like a fool, as long as people know he's a fool in love. Look at how he chose the buddy system with JM, when he knew he had options & he & JM are complete opposites when it comes to thrill seeking. And how he has made himself look even more sus & clingy, by even saying anything about other branches (BTW his wants are valid and its very much okay if he wanted to do other things) but he still didn't go through with it & instead went through a timely process and enlisted with JM instead. Didn't even enlist on your own that would give you independence and thrills and instead followed JM with the buddy system to hell.
The things we do for love. And If he hasn't told JM yet that he is in love with him, which I am sure he has and or JM at least feels it, but if he hasn't, I hope he gets the courage too one day, cause doing all this, plus following someone to depths of hell, is an awful lot of loving on one person, for it to be for nothing. To do all this for someone, then go home empty handed. What a hell you have to live in that you created for yourself. FYI, I think JM is just as in love with Jk and he appreciates everything, because Letter says it & that he plans to give it all back, what he's received, and I know JM is a man of his word. In fact, I'd say Jk is pretty damn satisfied & gets it back, cause he's still there, standing next to JM, just like he promised. I've never rooted so hard in my life for two people, but these two, I hope it all works out for them and Whatever kind of love it is that they have for one another. I hope it lasts forever.
Damn the onions got my eyes😭😭😭😭🤧

All of the great Maria Hill moments in Secret Invasion
Tumblr media
this bestie hug scene 
Tumblr media
this scene where she realizes her demise is imminent because she just saw agent ross die turn into a skrull in front of her and knows she’s gonna be a goner no matter what but also the hair. 
Tumblr media
this scene where she gets to explain the plot of the episode to the audience so we understand what is going on and why we should care while rocking this v-neck and gay stud earrings.
Tumblr media
additional v-neck appreciation
Tumblr media
this scene where she grabbed her arm and rocked the v-neck again and also has A+ hair.
Tumblr media
this scene where we got a great shot of this hair again
Tumblr media
this scene where she ate one piece of barely popped popcorn, confirming to us that she is a human and not a robot i guess also Nick lmao you can’t make popcorn just for yourself dude. also i just noticed that this is an extension of Maria’s red/white & blue color scheme here! 
Tumblr media
this quick shot where she is smiling at Nick getting out of the SUV aka her house I assume since she is basically always getting in or out of SUVS???
Tumblr media
this scene where she gets to leave her SUV house because she noticed a short person and was immediately like a short person in a tv show? that’s SUS! 
Tumblr media
this scene where she walked outside, i loved this, she looks great outside walking, i would love more scenes where Maria walks outside alive.
Tumblr media
this shot where her hair was fucking perfect 
Tumblr media
this last moment of perfect hair before G’iah fucking wrecks it
Tumblr media
this moment when she was like, how dare you be a short person, you better not mess up my hair in this poorly lit tunnel we are about to have a hairography fight in!!! 
Tumblr media
this moment where she legit held her own for a moment in a poorly lit tunnel that was not that way just to hide stunt doubles against G’iah in this hairography fight... (Also apparently, just being a skrull G’iah has super strength so it’s amazing that Maria Hill didn’t die in this encounter, also why wouldn’t G’iah just kill her, she’s about to be fine with killing 2000 people in a bombing?) NGL I made fun of this scene a lot the camera work is horrible and it’s so awkward and it makes no sense. 
Tumblr media
this scene where she sat the gayest way possible in A RUSSIAN DIVE BAR
Tumblr media
then this scene where she changed to her only other article of clothing, a second gray hoodie like a mom in a 2012 yogurt commercial.
Tumblr media
and finally, when Nick brought back those infrared glasses from space that he just happened to have like he knew they were gonna need them ahead of time and then acting like they are essential for some reason to this very dumb and terrible plan. But NGL they did look gay and cute as hell. 
I refuse to look at any screen caps further into Operation Glasses 
(( Also, I was just thinking about how even if she did survive being shot that dirty bomb radiation would have gotten her, right? Also, why did the dirty bombs not affect real Fury? Surprise another plot hole. ))

Hi.
It's currently 8:00 on a Sunday night so I don't think anyone is gonna see this but if I don't do this now I'm going to talk myself out of it.
First off, I wanted to say thank you again for everyone's kind replies and messages regarding my last post. I do appreciate every single one of you and your kindness. It's nice to know others do/have felt the same way. Y'all really are too kind. I'm honestly not sure if recovery is possible for me but it's nice to hear about others who have recovered.
I now come to you to share a bit more of what's going on and why things are just so fucking bleak for me. I'm honestly a little ashamed to even be sharing this and everything in me is begging me to not say anything which is why I need to post this now before I talk myself out of it.
So, late last year I found out that I was likely going to be laid off from my job sometime in January. I kind of knew it was coming and expected it but in December (literally the week of Christmas) I learned that it was going to happen for sure. I still don't have a date, and still have a schedule but those of you that have been laid off know it could literally come at any time.
Of course I was saving money through the busy season (or at least trying to, I'll get to that in a moment) because I thought I was going to get laid off last week, or even the first week of January. A lot happened in the last couple months that really kind of threw things into the toilet. I had to start paying on a student loan (a private one so I have no choice) and I had some back pay on some stuff that I had to take care of to avoid you know, getting sued.
Things would have been fine, it all would have been okay, except that I wasn't expecting my job to cut my hours so drastically before they laid me off. I went from 40 hour weeks to 24 hour weeks. So yeah. I'm kind of fucked right now.
I haven't even been able to pay rent this month and it's not looking like I'm going to be able to. I'm not at risk of being homeless yet. My landlord can be willing to work with people but they've been lenient with me in the past when I've struggled and I'm not sure how willing they will be to do that again.
And before anyone asks, no, I don't have family or friends that could help. I'm quite literally on my own in this world so that's not an option for me.
So, on top of everything else, I also have this to deal with.
I appreciate everyone's kind words and offers of help but there's no help for me. There's no hope for me anymore. This is why death feels more welcome than whatever the hell I'm doing now. I wouldn't call it living.

Okay so I’ve literally been searching for two days to find this post, but I can’t, so if anyone can find me the post about the League trying to figure out how crazy Amity is, PLEASE send it my way bc jfc I hate not crediting people and this is going to GRATE ON MY NERVES. Anyway.
Basic premise is that the JL sees the town goes “uh,,, that’s sus” and decides that they can’t just bust in and try and figure out if they’re crazy. So. In order to be better accepted, what do they do?
Well, they make the worst possible decision that they didn’t know was dumb: they sent a shrink.
The principal cleared her throat. “And… you’re here to apply for our, uh… what did you say?”
“The school counsel—”
“Ah yes! That!”
Dinah tried to keep her expression neutral while she internally chanted “whatthefuck whatthefuck whattheffffuuuuuuccccckkkkkkkkkk—”
The principal seemed to chew on her apprehension for a minute before giving Dinah a wavering smile and rubber stamping it. “…You can start next Friday.”
“But it’s Saturday…? I can start Mon—”
“Thatwon’tbe—!” She cleared her throat, her smile tight, as if that could conceal her prior panic. “That… won’t be… necessary, Dr. Lance.” Principal Ishiyama gestured towards the door. “Besides. We’ll need the time to— fix up your office!”
Dinah smiled and nodded, but she noted to herself as she walked out of the reception how Ishiyama rushed to her secretary to begin whispering furiously.
Dinah saw how she was scared.
Dinah paused on the front steps, digging her phone out of her slacks’ pocket. She scrolled through her contacts for a moment before finally hitting call. She pressed the phone between her ear and shoulder as she started digging through her purse for her keys. As soon as it picked up, she announced, “Hey, babe! I got the job! I’m on the front steps of my new workplace!” She sing-songed. Oliver took the hint. “Oh? What the hell happened in forty minutes that has you calling me before you’re even in the car? Actually… wouldn’t it be twenty? Fifteen? Commute’s… what, twenty-five minutes? Still can’t believe Bat’s is putting you up in this shack—”
Dinah slipped into the drivers seat, shut and locked the car and switched her phone to the other ear. “Ishiyama was scared of me.”
“…What?” Oliver laughed a bit. “Darling, don’t get me wrong, you’re terrifying, and I love every inch of you for it, but… those are Canary vibes you’re talking about….”
Dinah turned the ignition, foot pressed hard on the breaks. “Then explain to me why I’m starting next Friday even though I told her that I was ready to start Monday— or why she jumped out of her skin when I tried to shake her hand? How about how she caved the moment I confirmed I was going for the counselor position and gave it to me without further questioning?”
Oliver got a bit more serious. “And you’re sure you were reigning in the Resting Bitch Face?”
Dinah rolled her eyes. “Yes, I’m very sure that I was masking my ass off— and you know how good I am at that!”
“I know, hun,” Oliver soothes (it works, much to Dinah’s chargin and battered ego). “It’s worked on Superman and Batman. You caught your own Autism. Your mask is great, babe. Still prefer your murder vibes, though.”
Dinah grinned, her heart feeling achy and cheeks warm. “Well, yeah, that’s why I let you be my boyfriend.”
“And I thank God everyday you knocked some sense into my dumb ass— how about you go get us some safe foods and I’ll pull out the case packs again— we’ll try and figure out what’s going on, alright?”
Dinah smiled softly, her grip on the steering wheel softening, too. “Yeah, alright— when’s Roy gonna get here?” Dinah checked over her shoulder as she threw on her blinker. She turned back. “He should be up to date on anything we find.”
“He’s getting in later tonight,” Oliver told her, “and he’ll have already of eaten, so you don’t need to worry about that.”
Dinah smiled. “You’re so awesome.”
“I’ll try not to get a big head, but given how often you give out praise, that’s gonna be hard….”
Dinah laughed at the overly dramatic woe. She loved that about him— how he made her laugh like she was six again. “Okay, okay— I need to go, I’m driving— text me anything you want. Ask Roy, too.”
“Yeah, okay. I’ll get started on the files, too, alright? Because that wasn’t ego stroking; she shouldn’t have been scared unless she knew who you were and she did something horrible.”
Dinah smiled like she was chocolate under a heat lamp. “Okay.” God, she hopes he can’t hear her freaking heart eyes.
“Okay,” He laughs. “I’m gonna go. I still have a sofa to get through this door.”
She laughs as she takes her turn. “Alright— be safe.”
“You, too. Love you.”
“Not quite there yet,” She tells him, still melting, “but I think I’m getting there.”
“Take all the time in the universe. Bye.”
“Bye.” God, that man makes her soft. Dinah screams a little in the back of her throat, wanting to thrash a bit (but that’s dangerous, so she’ll settle on the screaming).
(She’s going to need to send Batman a gift basket for this— a way for her to bond with her boyfriend’s son, make him feel validated, and let her manage some distance from her relationship to try and figure her head out? He’s getting a basket like none other. She’s gonna dig up Grandma’s cookie-brownie recipe and make him a butt-ton. And then she’s going to send the recipe to Agent A. …and so maybe she’s going to slip in a book on autism (because there’s no way he’s neurotypical) in there, too, but who’s gonna know, huh?)
Dinah floated through parking, and starting her walk to the store, but the floating quickly shifted into a mask as phones started going off in waves— all of them with the same ringtone, which would make others (strangers, from what she could tell) lean over to look at their neighbor’s phones once they realized it wasn’t theirs.
…And slowly, one by one, they began to turn to her. Dinah saw a lot of things on their faces. She faked a happy little twirl to get a look behind her, too.
Fear. Trepidation. Horror.
The most common one was what most would call a “threat,” but Dinah had always been one for specific language, and these looks weren’t threats.
They were promises.
They were swears upon their loved ones’ graves and everything they held dear.
They were telling her a very simple story with a very stony set of the face: “fuck this up, and you won’t live to fuck it up again. We won’t let you.”
Most importantly, it gave up that tiny little detail that made the puzzle fit. With a slightly more real (if more feral) grin, Dinah did a happy little job as she finally stepped into the store. It was such a simple little word, especially with a three letter modifier tacked in front, but it told her so, so much. It said, “We won’t let you….”
“Not again.”

The lost boys are all at least some level of queer and not just because David's actively thirsting after Michael for the entire movie, but those boys are really physical with each other. I mean- they constantly be touching or standing really close to one another. And as a gay man who's lived in several conservative areas, let me tell ya, straight men don't like to stand that close to each other or be touched. It wasn't until I was around other queers that it was normal for a man to casually touch a man's shoulder, or put their hand on their back, etc. And hell yeah you share drinks from the same bottle, or share cigs and joints. I'd say this pack of vampires are at least all queer to some varying degrees. I'm not saying Marko's a sub for David but damn that boy definitely takes orders from David without hesitation.
So I've compiled some evidence for you to enjoy of the vampires being touch-y with one another in chronological order lol. Enjoy!
This one is very well known so of course I have to put it here. Right in the opening scene too:
Tumblr media
And then there's this one. I actually almost missed this one, but if you look, either Dwayne or Paul has their hand on David's shoulder. Like there's no reason to? But he does it anyway:
Tumblr media
And about two seconds later, Marko touches Dwayne's bicep. Terrible quality, sorry:
Tumblr media
And another iconic photo, Paulie's hand on Dwayne's shoulder. Damn Dwayne's left shoulder gets more action than I do:
Tumblr media
This one is really just a bonus of Paul standing really freaking close to David. I mean personal space, right? David's shoulder is practically in Paul's chest.
Tumblr media
Now this one I find really fascinating. This is right after David gives Michael the joint, and the reason I find it interesting is because probably... ten-ish seconds before this David puts his hand on Michael's shoulder and Michael shoves it off. But this time he let's David do it. David stares at Michael a lot:
Tumblr media
I'm going to say Paul doesn't give a crap about personal space because here he is in Michael's face after he pats him on the back:
Tumblr media
Michael and Marko vibing:
Tumblr media
I think this is such a cute one. Marko put his arm around Dwayne and Dwayne then returned it. So adorable! I had to edit it a little bit because it was very dark:
Tumblr media
This next one is a small bonus, but just know that currently David has his arm around Michael (and I'll show that in the image after):
Tumblr media
And then when the camera moves, you can see that David's arm is around Michael's back (you can see his wrist sticking out from his jacket just a bit. As he moves to face Michael you can see his hand move to Michael's shoulder):
Tumblr media
And y'all know that after Michael falls from the bridge he's caught by David.
I left out some smaller things such as Paul playfully shoving Marko when getting on his bike and the kicking during the bridge scene. But I rest my case. These boys don't mind physical touch between each other, and even actively seek it out. Which, with 4 men living and sleeping together and being very co dependent, it just screams queer all over the place. Even in the book it mentions that the cave is larger and has other tunnels, but yet they'd all rather sleep together 🥺 ALSO just gonna point out that when David turns people, he makes them drink his blood, but at the end of the movie Max just goes to bite Lucy? Unless that's a perk that only the head vampire has, seems a little sus that David wants everyone to swallow his fluids

So I have the most random request for hc's with Jafar. [if you want to obv]. What if his s/o was a demi-god [possibly the child of a god of knowledge] BUT they don't tell anyone. Their dad just shows up one day and thats how he finds out.
Anon your patience for getting this answered is immeasurable. I decided to make the 'god of knowledge' here Hermes, since in the myths Hermes' domain is messenger, lies, travel and creator of the alphabet - which is pretty awesome!
Pls accept these humble headcannons!
Jafar x Demigod!S/O
- You did not intend for this to happen.
- You had had the good sense to lay low and get the hell out of Greece: Your dad Hermes may be one of the more ‘chill’ gods, but you have no interest in getting to know the disaster that is your extended family. Hermes was even weirdly encouraging about you jumping ship, but as the heavenly messenger, you suppose he’s just happy that you’re travelling and putting your skills to use.
- You went overseas, studied languages, got to know the trade routes and built a life for yourself in Agrabah. You even got hired to advise the Sultans government and landed yourself a tall dark and twisted boyfriend to boot!
- You decide to write home one day, idly, just to let your mother (and dad) know you’re alive and things are going ok.
- You...really should have remembered. Hermes is juggling about 50 jobs on the daily and in his haste sometimes...forgets things. Like the fact you’re trying to pass as a regular mortal.
- So three days later when your Dad in all his jazzy, turquoise glory whizzes into the palace, squeezes you up into a giant hug, ruffles your hair and presses a plate of snacks from home into your hands – all while chatting a million miles an hour and letting you know just how proud he is-! - and then proceeds to whiz out again with a cheery ‘Knock ‘em dead kiddo!”, you knew you fucked up.
- Jafar’s knuckles were white around his staff.
- ...oh dear.
- Jafar prides himself on being the most informed person in any room at all times. You think he rose to Grand Vizier and maintained his position by being idle?? Hypnosis, blackmail and murder aside, Jafar has worked DAMN HARD – he takes study and acquisition of intelligence extremely seriously.
- This man, even when in his evil wizard tower in his underwear and swamped under a metric ton of sultan-induced paperwork, can tell you what is happening on the streets of Agrabah and half the civilisations across the desert at any one time.
- And you. Lied to him.
- You, of all people, his most trusted confidant, deliberately and intentionally kept your divine lineage and (presumably) powers hidden from him.
- (if Jafar ever deigns to think about the fact that you kept this from everyone, not just him, there’s a 50/50 chance it would send him into a deeper spiral because he’s supposed to be better than those plebeians and you managed to not only keep this information from him, but LIE to his face about it the entire time-?!)
- Reader if his world would stop fucking spinning he’d congratulate you and then probably attempt to bowl you down the stairs, Iago’s just gonna hang on your shoulder for a bit until the mans paranoia and bitterness stope teetering on the edge of homicide.
- he’s not threatened why on earth would you think that he’s threatened by the fact you’re a half divine being of Fucking Knowledge now hold sTILL-
- It’s... going to take a few days for him to simmer down and stop plotting contingency measures.
- Then he’ll let his greed overtake his self preservation and think about all the ways he can rope you into his schemes to take over Agrabah. The 180 from thin lipped barely contained murderous rage to overtly-looming-hyper-sleaze is dizzying. Iago is facepalming in the back.
- All in all, he’d be up in your business waaaay more than he was before, but he does (eventually) get over it enough to use you as a blatant flex. Of course you only had eyes for him, little jewel, clearly only he had the intellect to match such a divine gift as yours~
- (trip him on the stairs, reader, plEASE-)
Thanks so much for the ask, sorry again for the wait and I hope you like it!

The Flirting Dork~Eddie Munson x fem!reader
Tumblr media
Author’s Note: Yes I’m a clown who’s in love with the metalhead with a golden heart. I can’t help it, I’m soft. Anyway, I hope this isn’t too OOC but if it is I blame it on my NoUpsideDown!AU, that resides in my head, is that even a thing? A normal AU?
I thought it would be pretty fun if there was a 70’s Show style AU with the Hawkins gang, with a Steve/Jackie thing going on for Eddie and Y/N.
Warnings: None, pure fluff
Summary: You’ve been dating Eddie for a while now, almost three months and you realized how much of a giant dork he was when you got together.
Word Count: 1.5k
--------------------------------------
You never really fit in anywhere at school, but you wanted to. Wanted to find some sense of belonging in high school, but you eventually moved on from that fleeting feeling when you decided to just be content with staying in the background of the drama of high school. 
You noticed that some people loved to be the center of people’s attention whether deserved or not. Eddie Munson was one of them, he seemed to thrive in dramatic speeches and theatrical movements. You always looked forward to looking at him from the cafeteria tables, watching him give a dramatic lament about the tragedy of today’s youths. 
Unsure and shy, you were content on watching from afar and laughing to yourself when he does give in to the dramatics to his friends and surrounding people around him. What you didn’t know was that Eddie noticed you too. How could he not? He thinks you’re cute as hell.
Eddie noticed you looking at him a couple of times at the cafeteria and in your shared classes. At first he thought it was just in his head that you were looking at him, multiple times, but also because you are so cute and hot?? His brain couldn’t come up with a scenario where you would be staring at him like you are, like he’s not a freak. How did he not see you sooner?
One day he noticed you staring at his table again during lunch and this time he finally caught your eyes, which caused you to get flustered and look down at a book you were reading. Eddie grinned, this was his time to make his move, to see if you really do like him. He gets up and his friends all look at him expectantly, maybe for another dramatic speech.
He winks at them and says, “Fear not children, I will be right back. I am on a quest.”
You were currently trying not to die at having been caught staring at Eddie by Eddie. While trying to get back into your book you heard footsteps coming towards along with the noise of metal jingling. You heard someone sit right next to you and heard a rapping on the lunch table as someone was getting your attention. 
“Hello, is it okay if I came over here?” 
You look up and you saw Eddie Munson staring at you with a curious look in his eyes as he stares, and you thought you were gonna die from overheating at his stare. You put your book down as you answered him, “Su-sure, yeah it’s no problem.”
“I couldn’t help but notice that you were staring at me from across the room, and I was just curious why,” he said with a soft smile as he held his head with both arms.
“Only if the fair lady wishes of course,” he makes a motion of backing up from the bench.
“I-know it’s fine, I’m sorry that I was staring at you,” you softly muttered.
He comically spins himself fully on the bench as he looks at you with a goofy grin. 
“Oh there’s no need to apologize, I’m Eddie, Eddie Munson, though you probably already know that.”
“Yeah, I like hearing and seeing you do all those dramatic speeches you do sometimes here,” you gesture around the cafeteria, “I’m Y/N L/N.”
He repeats your name softly and then his eyes widen as he fully registers what you said.
“Wait you like when I go all dramatic and stuff? Even when I do the,” he does a quick devil face at you with his tongue out, “Even that?”
“Yeah even that,” you laugh softly.
He stares at you for a brief moment until he points at your book and asks, “So what reading have I interrupted?”
“Oh you don’t have to worry about this book, I’ve read it about a dozen times already. I-it’s the Hobbit? By Tolkien?” you hesitantly answered. 
His eyes widened and his smile becomes brighter as he asks,“you like Lord of the Rings?” 
“Yeah I do, do you?”
“Hell yes, I run the local cult as you probably heard, the Hellfire Club?” 
“Yeah but it’s just a club right? You play Dungeons and Dragons right?”
He lets out a laugh and claps his hands and he answers, “and you’re not weirded by that? You know the game?”
“Why would I be weirded out? I think it’s cool, I’ve always wanted to play the game and yeah I know it. I’ve always wanted to play a dwarf or an elf like from Tolkien.”
“Well then fair lady, I’ve got some great news, the guys and I are looking for a new person to join our new campaign that’s starting soon. Would you be interested?”
“Yeah that would be fun, but are you? I have almost zero experience in D&D.”
“Oh don’t worry about that, I can teach you everything you need to know before the campaign really starts.”
You give him a bright smile as you feel completely at ease with him, and excited at the prospect of finally getting to spend time with him. 
“Yeah I would love that.”
“Cool cool, um would you want to go to our table? So you can meet all the guys?”
“Yeah totally.”
As you followed him back to the table he turned around to face you and collided to his chest.
“Sorry sweetheart, but before we go fully there I want to ask before they start pestering me that you would want to go back to my place? To start teaching you about D&D and stuff,” he rambles. 
“That sounds good, I’d like that.”
The rest, as they say, is history.
--------------------------------------
You have been dating Eddie now for three months and you still think fondly of how he approached you wanting to put you at ease and make you laugh. He still does, and you’ve come to realize he’s not so intimidating as you thought. 
The day has finally ended at school and you were finishing putting your things away in the locker. You closed your locker and let out a yelp as you see your boyfriend, Eddie, looking at you with a wide grin on his face.
“Hey Eddie,” you say with a soft smile.
“Huh?” he gasps and throws his hand to his chest and spins around. “The lady doth know my name?”
You let out a laugh and shake his head at his antics but decide to play along, “Oh of course the lady knows about you, Sir Eddie, but one wonders does the sir know the lady’s?” 
His face fully lights up into a bright smile as he bounces his head back and forth walking with you towards his van. 
“Of course I know it Lady (Y/N), and would it be okay if this lowly peasant take you home?”
You let out a snort at that last comment and broke character as you playfully shove his shoulder.
“You dork, we’re dating already,” you said.
He’s fully in front of you with a smirk on his face now and he wiggles his eyebrows as he says, “oh we are? Does the other one know?”
“There is no other one, you’re the only guy for this girl,” you replied with a soft smile lighting your face up. 
“And that makes this guy so very lucky and very happy indeed,” he mutters to you before catching your lips in a soft kiss.
“You know you don’t need to flirt with me?” you remarked as you resumed your walking back to the van. The walk taking longer then needed with both of your theatrics halting your movements every couple steps. 
“Oh but it’s fun to flirt with you especially if you flirt back,” he winks.
You are both finally at the car and before you got in it he stepped in front of you, opens the door behind him and bowed deeply to you as he says, “your chariot awaits m’lady.”
“Why thank you m’lord,” you grinned at him.
As you both got settled in the car you decide to lean in and give him a quick kiss on the cheek before buckling seatbelt. He just looked shock at you for a second before grinning and turning on the car. 
“What’s that for?” Eddie asked.
“Oh just for being your charming, cheesy self,” you replied.
--------------------------------------
You got out of the car and came over to you as you walked up to his and his uncle’s shared trailer. 
“Hey my hand’s feeling kinda heavy can you hold it?” Eddie said.
You were in a fit of giggles as you reached to grab his hand and said, “that is not how the saying but only for you, dork.”
“Aha but my flirting worked regardless though,” he stated.
“Of course only because it’s you.”
“I’m thrilled darling.”
As you rested fully with Eddie on his bed he turns to you and wiggles his eyebrows at you much like he did the first day he talked to you as he says, “hey there your lips looks lonely, mind if mine keep them company?”
“You’re an absolute dork,” you reply as you pull him on top of him to kiss him.
“Oh yes, but I’m your dork,” Eddie said smiling against your lips.
You hummed in agreement as you pulled him back in for a deeper kiss.
‘Yeah, your dork,’ you thought to yourself lovingly.

now reading: 2ha vol 2
ch 71 - 88
lets go 
1. Mo Ran is more in love with concept of Shi Mei than Shi Mei himself
It started to dawn on me a while back but it slowly became clearer and clearer. Like, before there could be multiple explanations of his lack of interest in Shi Mei. Because their interactions in the first book were so sweet and wholesome and njgvtfninvghbjuvif but like reading how they cleaned up the house in silence was fucking painful. It’s like he tried to convince himself he was and he is in love with Shi Mei. Maybe he never really was, maybe only after he died Mo Ran began to convince himself he always did. Maybe he saw it as more than it really was because of grief. And because he is stupid. 
2. Shi Mei is a snake isnt he
I said it in my emotional post before ab ch 74, he totally pretended to be sick. I CONSULTED ALL MY FRIENDS (what i mean by that is my bestie and my boyfriend because im a loser like Chu Wanning) AND ASKED THEM TO TELL ME IF HE WAS SUS OR NOT. The verdict wasn’t clear but as i kept reading, it became super obvious. It was soooo sus when he just casually got out of bed while he was supposedly sick, just to menacingly and mysteriously stare at Mo Ran out of the window. As if it wasn’t clear enough before when he acted like a dainty lady all of the sudden. jnfjnju i love him, but omg im scared of what that little snake would do and what is his goal. Is that Taxian-jun’s dick really that fine 
@rosemary-screams i don’t know… how much longer i can take it… how much longer i can be true to my principles… to my love… its so hard… the weight of evidence seems so overwhelming…
3. i didnt realize before that Mo Ran’s grave was under the haitang tree. Maybe that wasn’t mentioned or maybe i forgot about it by the time i realized haitang tree’s significance nvgjnvgjvg NOW I KNOW WHAT YOU GUYS MEANT when you said its obvious from the beginning he loves Chu Wanning. (i mean im still not super convinced by the narrative; that doggo Mo Ran needs to try harder to connect those two lonely neurons scattered inside that thick skull of his)
4. I dont like that it was mentioned that infatuation pills exist in this universe. I dont like how they are introduced out of nowhere. That could be literally anything. Magic viagra. Or dick enlarging pills. ANYTHING. But no. It has to be infatuation pills. I dont like the fact that it seems like those are important. I really dont like that thought.
5. Shi Mei’s resemblance to Song Qiutong has been mentioned twice by now. Basically every time she appears, Mo Ran makes sure to note how she was similar to Shi Mei. And from what I understand Butterfly-Boned clan is pretty unique in their appearance? Is Shi Mei somehow… related to that clan? Like maybe only in a tiny bit tho… Or he's just THAT pretty <3
6. That person in black at the end of vol 2 is me trying to get my ship to work
Tumblr media
But on a serious note, what an ending, what the hell is going on. Did someone else really got reborn as well? Wasn’t it supposed to be rare? tjnfgvtfbvgfnbvgjnik And like… when Mo Ran is trying to figure out who the hell has water element from the people he knows… He basically goes through everyone from the main cast aside from Shi Mei… I CHECKED TWICE. It gives me goosebumps. But Maybe Shi Mei doesn’t have any? Like, his cultivation is super lame.
And the fact that Mo Ran forgot that whole interaction... njrigvkrhiuvrfjhiukvgnh no wonder there's gonna be like 8 books or more....
In all honesty I don’t even know what else to say, im so stunned! What the fuck is going on! I NEED BOOK 3 NOW
BTW! Tell me what character from 2ha i should draw for kinktober and in what crazy situations would you want to see them. I'm too lazy to draw two people so choose wisely lol (leave a comment or send me an ask)

I think the Emperor is just gonna eternally remain one of those characters that I find immensely fascinating and fucking frustrating in equal measure. Bro be like Emperor: "I really need you to trust me or we're all dead." Also Emperor: proceeds to spend half the game lying about what he is, withholds important information about himself after claiming to be completely open with you, is very obviously trying to seduce you to make you more pliant and is in general constantly acting sus as hell
Like, I get the Guardian thing at least, since people generally aren't going to be open to having a reasonable discussion with a mindflayer after they were just abducted and infected by them. But he definitely should reconsider this approach if your character is chill with Omeluum; whom I trusted with my life and had my whole heart within basically two seconds of meeting it because it doesn't bullshit around and is fucking adorable.
I had to make a conscious effort to keep trusting the Emperor despite him being a communist parade worth of red flags. I was genuinely surprised that he really won't stab in you the back so long as you don't press the Orpheus button; and that YOU need to be the one to convince him to pick the evil option should you give him the stones.
Even after playing around with the different endings I still feel no closer to fully understanding his motives and intentions. I can glean some things just from the general lore, like how he probably views you more like a beloved pet at best if you go all in on romancing him. But I'm not entirely convinced even the writers know what he really wants, lol.
Anyway, LARIAN PLEASE GIVE ME MORE OMELUUM CONTENT I WILL BUY DLC FOR IT IF I HAVE TO.

Okay this is gonna be a long post but I figured why the hell not throw my absolute fucking lunatic conspiracy board Limbus Company theory out there, because I’ve had four people tell me it makes sense when I’ve brought it up to them, so! Here we go. Theory: I believe that Dante is Ayin (a main character of the first ProjMoon game, Lobotomy Corp, for those who don’t know). There’s a metric asston of evidence in just the first few chapters alone that keeps making me lie on the floor and scream, so let me document it! 
We’re going under a cut for length, let’s get started! Heavy spoilers for Lobotomy Corporation and Ruina under here, be warned.
The Song: First of all, just looking at the lyrics to In Hell We Live, Lament has me absolutely losing my fucking mind. We’re looking at insane lines like “I walked down a path / Leading to the past / Stole from the tree's hands / A regretter's friend / The forbidden fruit” and “If you wanted me to speak / If you wanted me to think / If you wanted me to carry on our dreams / Each loop we live through / The standards inside me / Thе line I drew for me / Lowers to the earth” and “Why'd you make my voice stutter? / Why do truths never matter? / Why'd you curse me with "you're a natural born genius"?” and “Replayed thoughts / Forget me not / I'm inside the empathic light / I bite off your skin / Exposing the angels on your ribs” and just...the repeated mention of loops. The song basically reads literally like Ayin himself singing it to Carmen. (The ending song also feels suspicious lyrically as well, but I can’t pin that down as easily.)
The Prologue: Not as much here, but I find it extremely suspicious that they didn’t show us a damn thing of Dante until after he loses his head and his memories. And honestly, Faust and Vergilius going ‘your name is Dante’ feels very blatantly like a goddamn lie. An amnesiac is gonna accept whatever you tell him is his name, man. Not to mention that he’s explicitly someone very important (Vergilius says so in ch3), and clearly knows something the bad guys desperately want. Which ties to my next point.
The Bad Guys: First of all, they want the Golden Boughs, which as apparently ‘pieces of L Corp’s Singularity’, are a very nice way to say they’re probably literally pieces of Carmen somehow. Branches sure look like the central nervous system, huh. Second, one of the trio in the intro refers to their boss as a ‘her’, says she wants to do something that’s ‘not illegal, but has never been done before’, and IIRC, calls her the Serpent. Now, looking at that serpent reference alongside Carmen’s existing parallels to WhiteNight, as well as Adam and his constant talk of the forbidden fruit...you see what I’m getting at here? Who tempted Adam in the first place?
The Inferno: Now, you see, even if the big bad is somehow Carmen in some way -- similarly to how the Voice led Argalia in Ruina, perhaps? -- that doesn’t necessarily mean Ayin is Dante. HOWEVER! Look back at the Inferno itself, the poem we’re working off extremely heavily. What is the purpose for Dante’s trip to hell? Beatrice. Dante’s dead girlfriend who’s become a divine being. Literally, Beatrice sent Virgil to guide Dante through hell and limbo and shit to bring him to her, roughly speaking. So, uh, looks at the whole dead now divine gf thing. Hm. Yeah. And where is our own trip to hell taking us? Through the ruins of Lobcorp, grabbing what are more or less pieces of Carmen, and I can’t remember if it’s said outright or not but there is a heavy ass chance this trip is ending at the main facility. Which, coming full circle...
The Clock: I will politely resist making a Hokma joke. But you have to admit it’s funny. In all seriousness, though, the fact that Dante’s power is resetting -- something that the entire gameplay of Lobotomy Corp and a major aspect of the plot was built around, resetting and looping and bringing the dead back to life -- is a major sus factor. In fact, I’m just waiting for someone to say ‘death is meaningless’ if I’m not just blanking on dialogue and someone’s said it already. Not to mention, the aspect of Dante feeling the pain of the injuries/deaths he’s rewinding gives me a lot to say about the (fairly canon) interpretation of Ayin martyring himself using the loops to punish himself for what he did. Suffering how the people he’s tied to suffered, so to speak. In fact -- I wouldn’t be surprised if the clock is/was Ayin’s EGO like the Library is Angela’s. How else would it be immediately to hand to slap on his neck, and what else could possibly have been able to legitimately replace his goddamn head on such short notice?
Manager: LOOK, THIS ONE IS TENUOUS BUT WHEN ADDED TO THE PILE-- the simple fact that Dante is deliberately given the title of manager feels important, when looked at through the lens of the rest of the evidence. There’s a line at the beginning of Chapter 1 when the children Sinners start fighting where Dante goes “Should I step in? Is this the part where I exercise my authority as the manager with dignity and grace? A faint memory urges me to do something." and it feels significant.
Random additional note: The Mirror Dungeons Wellcheers event has Dante say it ‘feels familiar’ -- does it? Does it now, Dante? 
While I’m still going through the game myself - middle of ch2 - I’ve had the whole story told to me, so I know what’s up, and though there’s probably more small bits I’m missing, the major beats here are definitely enough to support my theory for sure. It feels very right and fitting.
I’m just sitting here with several tinfoil hats and my ConspiracyBoard.gif going GUYS I SWEAR, THIS MAKES SENSE and losing it silently. I hope I’m right. I mean if I’m not right I’m making an AU fic anyway, but I hope I’m right. What do y’all think?

Hey padfootastic,
Was scrolling through hp posts and saw a post where people were fighting over Remus situation. So just wanted to know your opinion bout it. Do you think Remus could have done better in PoA? He was a professor, responsible for the safety of others.
No matter how much I love Sirius but at that time he wasn't innocent in others mind, so hiding a big detail that could have affected the whole situation, hell, had Sirius really had been behind harry, he would have been dead cause our little innocent Remus here thought that it was a good idea to not tell them how Sirius had all the resources at his disposal. How easy it was for him to sneak into Hogwarts and harm harry and others.
It really was dangerous and well indirectly he did prove Snape right no? What do you think could have happened had Remus had guts to tell Dumbledore about Sirius being an animagus?
On the other side, oh man! I can imagine Sirius being all furious and depressed at the same time. He'd need to go for another plan, he'd think that now he won't be able to even see Harry easily and many more difficulties. Ugh
Imagine the angst after after innocence thing, Sirius letting go any single drop of love he might have had for Remus and treating him like a any other person. No different. Remus hating himself more and more and Sirius just. Not. Giving a. Single. eff. About the whole damn thing. I cant-
Please tell me what you think bout the whole situation.
yoooooo
i love this lol people asking me for my remus opinions never gets old bc i have endless salt to provide. i will never not be annoyed by that cretin.
okay so. PoA. i don’t often focus on that part of his whole arc (which is, funnily enough, one of the only concessions to remus’ ‘flaws’ that i’ve seen the remus fans give lol) but it’s honestly so??? like it’s literally one of the best examples we have of how self preservation is literally built into his core. iirc he doesn’t do it bc he’s afraid of how dumbledore would perceive him? doesn’t want him to know how they (he) broke his trust? and he’s willing to damn an entire school of students PLUS his best friends son to an alleged mass murderer for it. he will have that on his conscience rather than self introspection a bit and get thru the hard part.
i’ve seen people call him brave for a variety of reasons which all begin and end w his lycanthropy but i’m gonna be honest, he’s one of the most cowardly characters in the series in my opinion. every single time he has to make an active decision that might compromise his sense of self/perception or even just his peace of mind, he backs off. retreats. runs the fuck away. attacks outward. doesn’t take responsibility.
i think snape was both right, in that remus was helping sirius but wrong, because it wasn’t out of any friendship or responsibility. it was just a way to save face for himself. also probably him not wanting to confront any difficult feelings or memories.
wrt if he had told dumbledore? man idek. i literally can’t imagine it and surprisingly, haven’t read any fics exploring that option either 🤔 sus, that. also very telling lol maybe tightened security? disappointed dumbles? i cant see any major changes tho bc even sirius as a grim was pretty well hidden except maybe anti animagus wards if those r a thing?
also yes!!! i think sirius should be allowed to be angry and disappointed more often. he should be spitting mad about the fact that not only did remus not care a lick about harry, he also gave up so easily on sirius. i think he should be allowed that space.

Lou on Sang was one hell of a ride: Loves Zayn’s vocals, Li hate was denied; Weed’s good, ass tat’s bad; mesonfreddiemelad; Said he didn’t leak Home (but he lied).
Breaking the poetry wall to ramble about this interview (which was just too much for a few dozen syllables, but I tried). I like and respect Zach Sang as an interviewer. He listens to his subject, and while he has his questions and prompts prepared, he lets the conversation flow organically. And he doesn’t talk over people like fucking Zane Lowe. Louis thrives in those free-flowing, long-format discussions about music and creative process. I could listen to him endlessly. Which is why the forced babygate stuff stands out so sharply. The interview went hard on it. And here’s what I found especially sus:
Zach brings up seeing Louis perform in L.A. and is in the middle of waxing poetic about how Louis commands the room, when Louis very inorganically derails him specifically to bring up the kid (and goes all oBViOuSLy big-eyed). Stoner-brain Louis sure was quick with the knowledge that it was the Saturday night show where Zach and the kid would have overlapped. (I highly doubt Louis would be able to recall the day of the week for any other show on tour. He was prepared to get that in.) He goes on to mention very specific things to prove he knows dad details (like the kid’s bedtime). And he plays up the hero image thing again, which he did with the surfboard Christmas gift story, so now it’s a narrative. He goes into unnecessary detail to over-explain things (we locked eyes, which we could do because the venue is big but not too big ... ).
But what I can’t synthesize is that he says it’s the first time “me son’s gonna see me perform” (I get that he means live, but he makes it sound like the kid has no concept of what he does. His grandparents aren’t showing him videos? They didn’t let him watch the London livestream? For which his dad set a Guinness record? They didn’t crack him up with 800 plays of the fookin’-chicken-nugget clip?) and then that having seen a show, the kid now understands what he does (and that not everyone’s dad does what he does) ... But then he goes on to talk about how, like with his little sisters, his rock star life has always been normal to the kid. And those seem like contradictory statements.
And the very specific mention of taking the kid to the park with Oli, and then an unseen of that very occurrence turning up the same day the interview publishes?? It’s never not weird. I have no idea why they’re going so hard, or how they’ll ever end this mess, but it’s apparent that Louis will take the route of “He’ll always be a son to me.” And no mention whatsoever of megirlfriendeleanor. The ass-tat discussion sure would have been a convenient place for that, with all the talk of who sees it and “it’s not sexy” and “someone’s gonna love you for you.” ... Louis’ discussion of it was that of a man unattached. (Has anyone heard Chicago yet? Does he reference it in that song, or summat? Was this ass-tat knowledge seeding? Or was it just because Zach combed fan tweets and it’s a point of curiosity? It was an hour-long interview and I’m left with more questions than answers.)
Anyway ... back to five lines.

Relating to episode 11, what's so interesting to me about Meryl and Roberto becoming flowers in Vash's "memory"... Is that Wolfwood (imma call him Nick from now on) turned into Nai... lolololol which I don't think is a good thing for Nick rn
TLDR: Meryl and Roberto became flowers because they were/are connections Vash has already begun to see as more genuine and meaningful - people who see and accept Vash as he is.
Whereas Nick is someone Vash was helping and reminds him, at times, a little too much of Knives (but was also inevitably grateful for in Ep. 12).
Full concept below the cut 🙈🙈 Lovely friends in the #vashwood space please don't eat me 🤣🤣
So, from my understanding, Meryl and Roberto were just random people in the beginning, right? Their initial relationship with Vash is built on an exchange between them: Vash tells them his story and avoids the police while Meryl and Roberto got a good story.
You start to see a bit of a shift when Meryl, specifically, starts helping Vash and defying Roberto’s warnings to remain a bystander/witness. I.e. She gives Vash a bullet. She helps him escape. She stands up for him. 
She is the only one after Knives destroys Jenorah to go after Vash. 
Maybe it's not super personal but all those moments, they matter. Anyway... fast forward to when Meryl and Roberto learn Vash isn't human but still come back and then discover that Vash is a plant.
Now, we - the viewer - saw that Meryl's stated reason to rejoin Vash was to get more dirt on him but from Vash’s POV… think about it. He’s not expecting to see them again (that comment that he and them aren’t that close?? While true-ish [what does it mean to be "close" to Vash who's been alone for so long??], it could also be distancing language he’s using to protect himself - we already know he’s dealt with trauma, etc).
But Vash does see them again, only a short time later. 
And not only did Meryl and Roberto return on their own volition (when they didn't need Vash anymore, after all, Roberto stated they already had enough for their articles...) they then helped Vash on their own accord on the sand steamer (even after we see Roberto ready to walk away several times, justifiably concerned for his own wellbeing). And to add to it, Vash’s last time seeing Meryl and Roberto before July, is after they’ve learned he’s a plant. 
Their reunion at Home appeared a little short lived thanks to wormie but when they saw him (especially Meryl) they were happy to see he was okay and Vash, too, appeared happy they were okay. 
All of this is to say that I think that’s why they appeared in his memories at all - he was starting to see them as friends, as people he cared for not solely because he’s a pacifist with a lot of guilt, shame and a savior complex, but because omg these people returned?? They might actually care?? What is this feeling... is it... hope?? Connection?!?!?!
It’s one thing to appreciate someone who's helped you, especially when it's mutually beneficial. It’s another thing entirely to return to someone when the person you’re returning to has only caused you trouble, which... bro Vash is the humanoid typhoon 🤣🤣 he's "caused" them all hell but Meryl and Roberto kept coming back to his side and turning around to help Vash.  
Now… I’m probably gonna get some shit for this but… I don’t think Vash saw Nick as a friend, at least not before Ep. 12. 
I think there’s a big reason that in the "memory" Nick didn’t turn into flowers but morphed into Nai. We know Vash is sus of Nick from their conversation on the sand steamer. We see him challenge Nick on the sand steamer and ask him why he's following Vash - also the shots with them on the rail show a lot of physical distance, which matters. Imma get shot for saying this but I think the “sexual” tension between Nick and Vash on the sand steamer… isn’t sexual tension. I think it’s Nick giving Vash hope that Nai too can be better. I think Vash sees a lot of similarities between the two and wants to believe in them both. And when he sees Nick lean toward his way of thinking during the sand ship crisis (trusting in Vash and helping Vash to save the people on the ship and Hopeland), I think Vash is both genuinely happy to see that growth for Nick because he believes that to be the best path but also because VASH ISN’T DUMB LOL. YES HE’S GOOFY AS FUCK but hear me out... Something that’s bothered me so much and I think I've finally pieced together was how quiet Vash is in Stampede. 
In the ‘98 anime he talked a lot more. His character was portrayed differently - obviously - but now I think I understand another reason why… It’s class clown survival tactic 101. What do you do to distract from the fact that you’re not like everyone else but you still want to be liked, still want to blend in? You make them laugh. 
Other's have talked about this so I'll try not to belabor it but... of course Vash wanted to be liked and accepted by the humans. And of course... he would act in a manner so as to not cause them to distrust him. Aka - sweet, demure, helpful, goofy, etc.
Vash’s character is goofy as a defense mechanism. He is also quiet as a defense here. He is forthcoming about certain things in Stampede (ex. him immediately telling everyone Nai is the big baddy) but he’s not nearly the same conversationalist in Stampede that he was in the prior anime and movie, etc. 
There are a number of benefits people reap from being the funny guy that I don’t need to rehash here but what I’m saying is… Vash in Stampede 100% knew that Nick wasn't hanging around him for noble causes (he calls Nick out for it on the deck). And he definitely knows Nick isn’t there to be his be his friend - GUYS LOL NICK TELLS VASH TO THINK OF HIM LIKE A BROTHER... WHO IS VASH'S REAL BRO??? NAI. YOU THINK THAT DIALOGUE WAS JUST MEANT TO BE CHEEKY?? Nah 🤣🤣 Vash knows Nick is involved with his real bro, especially after the sand steamer when it's made very obvious that Nick knows Livio… who also conveniently has a similar dress to Nick and similar odd "enhancements" as several of the other people who have attacked Vash, that Vash knows his brother sent after him?? Come on... 
Vash is smart and plays dumb.
Think about the first few episodes... He stops a shit ton of bombs with a single bullet by shattering a rock and etc. He puts a red cape on an animal to try and escape knowing that that's what people will look for. He fakes sleeping to hear conversations. He notices details. This boy pays attention and the goofiness is meant to distract from that because nothing freaks people out more than thinking they are being watched/doesn't make him very non-threatening. Vash fucking knew Nick wasn’t his buddy or, at the very least, he was aware that Nick wasn't acting totally out of altruism. 
Vash even said as much when he was shirtless. But that’s the thing about distractions… lol you see a shirtless Vash and then gloss over the part where Nick says wow you figured me out. Vash knew that Nick was hanging around him because Nick needed something from Vash and Vash admits, he can't stop himself from helping someone in a tight spot.
Roberto pieces it together a few scenes later. You really think Vash didn’t just because he’s keeping his cards close to his chest? Nah you trippin lol Vash says it. He can’t abandon people in a tight spot, which includes Nick. And the cherry on top of it all?? They are in Nai's lair or whatever and Nick has a casual, familiar interaction with Elendira. Two seconds later it shows Vash talking to her meaning... VASH SAW THE WHOLE EXCHANGE LOL you really think he's not like "ah this makes sense... strange man with a cross who is conspicuously similar to a lot of the people Nai has sent after me leading me to Nai also knows Nai's cloned child? Yup, this checks; he's working with Nai to get me."
Nick doesn’t disappear into roses because Vash doesn’t consider him someone who cares about him as he is. I'm not saying that Nick can't or won't fix that later (Ep. 12 was a good start)... But I am saying that imagery matters lol so too does the placement of the memory. Nick was remembered for killing and was an earlier memory... meaning it was less significant to Vash and likely not a positive one. Not only that but… He turned into Nai at the end because Nick reminds Vash of Nai, and not always in a good way. 
But those red flowers?? The ones we know Vash loves and remind him of his only source of solace and strength to go on?? Meryl and Roberto may not have been his besties or anything (yet) but… they already meant something to Vash. Nick has some catching up to do in the next season LOLOLOL The point is... Nick still needs to win over Babygirl and I’m sure he will. I’m super excited to see what they’ll do with Nick now that his “contract” has been fulfilled!!
If you made it here, thanks for coming to my dissertation!! More later. ✌️✌️

So here's something fun to think about. I like Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss. I'm also a Christian. I'm sure that's no big thing, I've even found a fan or two that are religious. But let's say I can't talk about the shows on my personal Facebook blog without getting some comments about "the enemy getting into my home" or how I have to cover up the pentagrams on my Alastor standees with electrical tape. I mean I don't like them, but it fits the show, and I guess making them stars doesn't work for my mom 😅
Tumblr media
So, why do I like the shows? Well, it's good and funny! Dark humor that I know some would be offended by, especially Christians, but for me, I can look past them being demons and see a funny show with great characters. The designs are great, some even amazing. Helluva Boss is evolving into its own show in the second season, as the first season was more the setup of the premise, but the seasons are still good, especially for an independent production released in YouTube.
And Hazbin Hotel, not only good and funny, but the premise is fascinating! The princess of hell, aka Lucifer's daughter, wanting to save her people by rehabilitating demons so they can get into heaven. This is an interesting concept! Reminds me a lot of iron sharpening iron, or maybe even blind leading the blind. Because, what do demons think is good? What do demons think make a demon rehabilitated? Will heaven accept and work with hell to allow good demons into heaven? It also kinda reminds me of the lost book of the Bible called the Revelation of Peter. It's basically the same thing as the Revelation of John, but with an additional passage where Peter and an angel looked down into hell, and the angel basically said "you know, those sinners aren't trapped in hell, all they got to do is accept Christ and they'll be released into heaven." I find it fascinating and kind of funny that, when deciding between these two books, the people putting together the definitive Bible decided "nah, we don't like people getting a chance to escape eternal punishment, let's go with John's book" 😅
Now there are a few nitpicks that, I'm not gonna say dislike, but more like deal with it. One is realizing that some of the demons and lore of the shows are based on some demonology. So Vivziepop has done her homework, and that respectable and impressive. But, the research is so well researched, I'm a little sus at times about how well she knows her stuff. But, I'm not gonna judge her religious beliefs, so I'll let that slide. The second, and another nitpick, I was excited to see the angels after seeing how amazing the designs of the characters look, only to find that the angels look much like the demons in design. That's a little underwhelming imo, but again, I was personally expecting too much I guess. Also, maybe there's some kind of reasoning or message behind the angels and demons having similar designs. Third, another nitpick, but I think they're starting too soon with the demons fighting back against the exterminations. I mean, I'm excited as hell too, but I feel it's too soon. I want to see them try to rehabilitate demons first. But who knows, maybe the angels didn't take Charlie seriously, and this is their way of showing it. I mean, I'd fight back too. I'm pretty sure when demons double die, there's no double hell, and the demons are just trying to survive day by day in hell. And I feel for them having to live through that, especially cause it's eternal, and they can also die. There's some humanity in these demons, particularly the ones that were humans before, or aren't total evil like Asmodeous or Moxxie.
In fact, I can't help but notice that I do like the least evil characters such as Moxxie and Charlie, then later the more evil but complex characters such as Angel Dust and Alastor. Oh my gosh, I love how nostalgic and awesome Alastor is! And that voice is the best part! Then I find out why he's down in hell, and why he likes being in hell, and I'm like.... why do I still like this guy? Why do I like him more??
Anyway, guess as a Christian, Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss are like my guilty pleasure shows. Yes I get why some religious people would hate the show, and why I probably shouldn't like the show. But, I do like the show anyhow. Because I can look past the demons and the hellfire, and try and ignore the glyphs and pentagrams 😅 and see some great writing and animation behind it

Chapter 10 // Chapter 11 // Chapter 12
~3 years ago~
Ryujin’s party was gonna start in 20 minutes and the bakery was bustling with nervous energy. Yuna was nicer than most witches but she still can be petty. Petty in the sense that she may decide against helping them if they’re late. Especially if her easily irritated familiar had any say on the matter.
It was all hand’s on deck putting boxes of cupcakes into the back of Jungkook’s truck and into the trunk of Hobi and Jin’s cars. Jin took the lead making sure all the flavors were labeled correctly and grouped together. He did not allow Namjoon to help pack them in because they could not afford for their clumsy alpha to potentially screw things up.
“Knock it off, you’re gonna drop those trays.” Hobi said sternly to the two youngest wolves who were both pretending to be waiters at a fancy restaurant and balancing trays with one hand. Jungkook balanced one in both of his hands.
Tae pouted and gave his tray to Jin as Jungkook grumbled under his breath, “We weren’t going to drop them.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Finding parking on the street for three vehicles was difficult, the whole normally quiet block was packed with cars.
“Hmm, I thought witches traveled on brooms.” Yoongi wondered a loud touching his chin. Jin laughed his windshield wiper laugh behind him as he popped his car’s trunk.
Namjoon also stared at the cars pondering the conundrum, “Would a broom closest count as a parking lot?”
“I’ve found that leather seats are much more comfortable.” An amused sounding voice sounded right in Namjoon’s ear causing him to jump. She was definitely not there a second ago.
“What the hell?” Jimin said clutching a hand to his chest staring at the strange woman cloaked in a blood red lace corset dress who just smiled sweetly back at him. “Why can’t you witches be normal?”
“Who said you mutts were normal?” A woman with brown bunny ears wearing only a light blue collar snarked back to the silver haired man. He was going to come up with another comeback but he was having trouble when he noticed the woman’s lack of clothing.
“Do you people not own clothes? Why are your familiars always naked?” Taehyung piped up getting out of the passenger seat of Hobi’s car.
“My eye’s are up here, Fido” She smirked at Jimin when she noticed him staring at her breasts before he growled and turned his head as if he wasn’t looking.
“Where’s Yuna?” Namjoon interrupted.
“She’s busy. My name’s Jihyo and this is Nayeon.” The witch said before telling everyone to step back. When the wolves reluctantly stepped away from their cars Jihyo snapped her fingers and two trolley carts ,that looked like old fancy hotel carts that bellhops would use, appeared out of thin air. Then with a flick of her wrist all the boxes from inside Jin’s trunk started floating up and stacking themselves perfectly onto one of them. Then Hobi’s trunk opened when she pointed at it and the same thing happened again. Like clockwork all of the boxes from Jungkook’s truck and the box that he was holding floated to join the others. The sudden force yanking the box from his hands surprised him causing him to yelp.
The whole pack stood there in awe at the magic show they just witnessed until Yoongi piped up breaking the trance they were all in. “Wow, you didn’t even have to say Wingardium Leviosa.”
“Keep it up and I won’t give you the potion.” Jihyo frowned at him.
“The potion? Yuna told us that she needed to go get supplies to make it and it needed to ferment.” Hobi stated cocking his head like a confused puppy.
“Yes, that is true but luckily for you I happened to have left overs of one of the potions she promised you.”  Jihyo once again snapped her fingers and with a magical poof of blue smoke a small glass bottle appeared. “This is ‘accept me’ potion.”
“You could give this to someone and tell them the sky was green and they’d accept that without arguing.” Nayeon pointed at the floating bottle.
Jihyo moved her hand in a ‘shooing’ motion and the bottle moved to Namjoon. The bright green liquid sloshed around with a wine bottle-esque cork to keep it inside. He reached out to grab it but Yoongi got it before he could.
“You need to make sure you use it all at once, in a beverage is the best option. Once you give it you have 24 hours to use it to it’s strongest ability. After that it starts to weaken and you have less of a chance of being able to relay the information you seek to give. You can always use another batch if you mess up but if you already told your little girlfriend what you are and she runs away you can’t magically make her forget her fear and simply erase the memory. So be smart and use it wisely.”
~Present Day~
The most noticeable thing of this train station was the huge gold water fountain that greeted you as soon as you walked up the stairs from the boarding platform. It was of a beautiful woman sitting on the edge of a waterfall surrounded by wolves at the bottom. You knew immediately that it was to pay tribute to the Lunar Goddess, the deity all werewolves pay respect to. Things like this were usually only seen at temples deep in the woods where humans don’t go. The existence of werewolves is still very much a myth in the normal world and will remain to be until the end of time if the council has any say. Only a small amount of humans know and it’s because they’re fated to be pack mates. So seeing that so out in the open cemented the fact that you’re now in a completely different world, making this nightmare feel so much more real.
In your reverie you failed to notice the atmosphere change at first when two huge black wolves approached. A thick feeling of authority that felt much stronger than anytime Namjoon flexed his alpha power wrapped itself around you. You normally couldn’t feel it when he did that but this feeling managed to be so strong even your mere human senses could feel the danger radiating off them.
One of them made it a point to stare you in the eyes with it’s almost glowing ice blue eyes. It’s easy to remember that there’s a person behind a wolf’s eyes whenever you’re around your pack members but these eye’s only gave off pure predatory nature that gave off no sense of humanness.
“Yes this is them.” one of the guards said behind you. You thought you could hear a slight uneasiness in his voice as he addressed the wolves. Hearing that slight wobble you looked around him and noticed the other werewolves just trying to get to their destinations were actively giving the five of you a wide berth.
A push forward and a harsh whisper of ‘Go!’ made Jungkook grab your hand tightly as you were pressured into following the wolves past the fountain towards the unknown. The feeling of being a sacrificial lamb being led to the slaughter did not escape you as you made eye contact with the golden face of the goddess.
