Sometimes I think The X-Files is such a timeless and relevant show I forget it takes place in the 90s, and then I see a scene where Scully buys a whole bag of groceries for $11.14 and pays with a check

So, considering what's going on with Riot right now, do you think Arcane Season 2 got caught up in all of this restructuring?
Yes and no. Arcane season 2 is part of the reason for the restructuring.
As I understand it, internally at Riot, after Arcane was a huge (and more importantly: prestigious!) success, the decision was made to basically hand the entirety of the game's lore and story over to the Entertainment division within Riot. These are the people in large part responsible for projects like Arcane, K/DA, Heartsteel, that animated series China got, all that sort of thing.
The writers at Riot were basically told to flat out stop producing new content and lore for the game - that's why there's BEEN no new story content for League for over a year - because everything was going to be consolidated under the Entertainment division from now on. This is why Riot started talking about "One Runeterra" and "Arcane is going to be canon" and so on.
The success of Arcane convinced executives that what League of Legends needs is a singular cohesive brand with its most successful public property leading the charge, Arcane is going to be the gateway drug, the hook on the end of the line that brings new players and new paying customers into the exciting world of the League of Legends multimedia IP universe!
Nevermind that Arcane's story and worldbuilding is fundamentally incompatible with >checks notes< the overwhelming majority of Runeterra as it exists and enormous compromises would have to be made to either the world of Runeterra or Arcane itself to make it work. Arcane is the big shiny prestigious mainstream Emmy-award winning project that every executive wants to put their name next to, and like companies Pivoting To Video in 2015 because Facebook showed them inflated viewership stats, Riot Games is Pivoting To Arcane. It's better than them pivoting to crypto and NFTs, at least, although I know for a fact that high ranking people at Riot tried to make that happen too.
Now, the primary cause for all of these games industry layoffs is that interest rates aren't zero anymore. Borrowing money isn't free, the curve of constant growth has ever so slightly slowed, taking on debt is becoming a little tiny bit more risky than it was previously, and corporations are responding to this with massive rounds of layoffs and constriction to show "financial responsibility" and prove to shareholders that they are prioritizing core growth strategies and blah blah blah etc. They're also trying to kneecap the growing labor movement in the games industry and exert downwards pressure on wages, but the interest rates seem to have been the main thing.
In Riot's particular case, a secondary reason is they want to pivot the focus of the company to support their One Runeterra pipe dream, so a lot of the people who got fired at Riot are writers, artists, creative leads and sometimes extremely senior and successful staff who are now surplus to requirements. This is also why Riot shut down Riot Forge in the same round of layoffs - can't have a bunch of talented indie devs going off making video games that don't adhere to the new One Runeterra policy. What if someone played Mageseeker and got confused how there can be mages all over Demacia but somehow there are no mages in Arcane's Piltover and Zaun. That's a plot hole! People write snarky articles about that sort of thing. It turns off new consumers! What if Cinema Sins makes a video making fun of it?!?
So yeah. A bunch of cocaine-addled fame hungry executive vultures at Riot are absolutely gagging on their own d*cks to put their name next to Arcane related projects, and since they were going to be screwing hundreds of people out of their careers, healthcare, and in some cases their fucking visa status anyway, it seems to have presented a nice opportunity to clear the board for their latest Visionary Scheme for the company IP.
That is as I understand the situation, anyway. I'm a bitter old man and most of what I hear is second hand and anonymous gossip through my social networks, take what I say with a grain of salt, but I've followed this company for (oh god) twelve years now and I have developed a tragically keen understanding of how its executive class operates.

This is the size difference nsfw request
Tumblr media
Now you’re up my alley..
Mercs with a tiny Y/N (size difference NSFW)
Warning: Uhhh fire play, breeding kink, blah blah.
Scout:
- Fuck…
- You inflate his ego by simply existing within his presence. Bonus points if you’re chunky. He’ll use you as a human fleshlight on his dick. Grabbing at your tummy or whatever is caked. Bouncing you up and down like one of those toys.
- He has a high libido in general and he’ll come back after battles, full of adrenaline, ready to pump you full of his cum. He exposes himself in front of your tiny stature and his erect dick falls out onto your head. You don’t even know if you can take it because of how small you are.
- Forces his dick down your mouth. With consent of course. He’s a pussy about it at first and asks if you’re okay periodically. It’s kind of cute how nervous he is. He thinks he’ll break you like glass if he isn’t careful. You’re tight as fuck and he’s high off the arousal.
————————————————————————-
Soldier:
- “YOUR ORGANS ARE ABOUT TO EAT SHIT, JUST SO YOU KNOW!”
- God dammit. He’s MASSIVE. A big meaty, veiny, cock is stuck out in front of you. Throbbing and already beginning to drip. You swear you could even hear the flesh throbbing eagerly. Ready to breed its mate and force itself through a hole. As you get down for him, it doesn’t matter if you’re a virgin or not. You end up bleeding a little due to his massive size.
- Loves mistreating you. Throws you on your back, pulls your hair, spanks your ass HARD. Eventually you’re forced to take in his entire girth. You could feel him applying force against certain organs. He stretches out your skin as a bulge in your tummy appears. You could feel his thrusts getting shorter and shorter.
- Yeah.. Let’s all be thankful the human body can withstand worse things. Because he unloads what could be only described gallons in you. His legs quiver as his balls empty out. As he pulls out you still feel like you’re full of something. Your lower half growls in discomfort. Soldier is mostly quiet the entire time. You’re (probably) the one whose loud. Taking him isn’t easy.
———————————————————————-
Demoman:
- He’s telling you how small and weak and feeble you are the entire time. Laughing in-between kisses and rubbing your sides. “Ohh, look how small you are. I could just eat ya.” He growls in your ear, voice husky and all. He puts his entire weight on your body when you try to struggle or act up.
- You can feel his erection growing in his pants as he pushes against you. “Ah.. Can ye do me a favor?” He asks breathlessly, holding you down with one hand and undoing his pants with the other; “Get rid of this. Won’t ye?” He takes his dick into his hand and slaps it against your tummy once or twice. “Itse botherin me..”
- Similar to Soldier this shit isn’t easy as the porns make it out to be. Tears well up in your eyes as your body struggles to adjust to his fat cock. The power imbalance is getting him off. He isn’t against roleplaying that he’s a huge werewolf or werebear and you’re his little mouse prey. Bites random parts of your body to make it seem like he’s tasting you.
———————————————————————-
Engineer:
- “Well now, what do we have here?” You hear a rasp, seductive southern drawl behind you in the intel room. Between the dim lights you see Engineer. Leaning against the server machines. “A little birdie told me you wanted to see me here, pardner.. What can I do for you?”
- You have to ask him to get off to you. You explain away and you can’t see a solid expression as always. But the way the team oriented lights reflect off his goggles make it look like two glowing eyes. He tips his hardhat forward without another word and pins you against the wall with one hand. Engineer is a scary dude.
- “Your little puppydog eyes could get you anything, y’know that?” He grits his teeth in frustration. Yanking on your clothing. “Off.” And you obey him without question. Feeling like you were being scolded. He lifts one leg of yours up and flexes on the fact he’s taller than you. A fist holding himself up above your head.
- “You might’ve just made the biggest mistake of your life allowing me to do this.”
——————————————————————-
Heavy:
- He’s incredibly gentle with you. Which says a lot because he’s rarely gentle with anybody. He pets you from head to back as you lap at his dick. Puts two fingers into your ass. Even that in-and-itself is quite much. You struggle at the feeling.
- “Hm.. As i’ve suspected you’re not prepped for me.” He says. Out of all the Mercs his dick is the biggest. He purposely teases you to your edge. Pulling his hand away when he knows you’re about to cum. Next, he takes his dick in hand. “Are you sure you want this?”
- It takes you a while to get yourself used to this. Several days in fact of pure blissful agony. He tries again the next day. No matter how much lube you guys use, it’s always quite difficult. He prematurely cums with a groan one time and you were suspecting to look down and see your stomach on fire. the liquid was hot as it forced its way into your body. You’re surprised you didn’t explode from that much cum being shoved into you.
————————————————————————
Pyro:
- Oh great. Probably the kinkiest in terms of your height. Slams their big fat body onto you and you get crushed. Sorry.
- Play fights with you while masturbating you. Makes you feel humiliated and inferior by pretending they’re a large, bigger criminal coming to get revenge on you for a debt you didn’t pay. Straps you to a chair and crushes you with one thigh on your lap. Teases you with their detonator pointed at your face. Threatens to cook you over a spit roast like the little prey you are if you don’t listen to every word they say.
- They burn your hips and thighs by pressing matches into your skin. They have a branding iron so have fun getting a permanent tattoo just above your genitalia. Don’t worry! They’ll give themselves one to match.
- They become incredibly possessive over your small body during sex. You hear them mumbling something along the lines of “Mine, mine mine mine.”
————————————————————————
Sniper:
- Probably the most violent. Holy shit.
- Chases you around his camper van after you’ve poked his face to get his attention for the hundredth time. Finally pins you down on his bed and bares his teeth in your face. Due to the proximity you can somewhat make out an aroused expression on his face. That being an incredibly sleepy glare.
- “You’re just begging to get a bullet between your eyes, aren’t you? You bloody rabbit.” His voice is low, and seductive. He slams you against the pillow and then rips your shirt off. Shredding it to bits. He runs his tongue across your chest. Tasting you. “Mmm.”
- You can feel his hot breath on your face as he gently slaps your hands away from his own clothes. No. He’s gonna be the one seeing you squirm. Not the other way around. He digs his nails into your shoulders and bites hard on all your soft areas. Yes, even your genitalia. By the time it’s over and he’s satisfied with the way you’ve come, you’re covered in red marks and bruises from head to toe. Barely able to catch a breath.
————————————————————-
Medic:
- “Ach! I don’t have time for such juvenile needs. I’m an old man. I’m too focused on something else half the time. It will only distract me from what’s importan-“ He trails off, the sight of you unbuttoning your uniform is what finally convinces him. Be warned, Medic doesn’t start out as a lovey dovey person during the beginning of your relationship. He’s actually quite cold.
- “So you really want this?” He gives you a challenging glare after regaining himself. His hand up to his chest. As if he was testing the waters. “Fine. Prognosis: Patient is in need of sex surrogacy. Doctor’s notes?: Not surprised.” He goes over to the sink and washes his hands while you get on the hospital bed. He acts completely professional but you can see his superiority complex severely suffering.
- He pulls his gloves over his hands and spreads your legs out. Touching your genitalia and beginning to jerk you off with the aid of lube. His expression is cold and trying to focus as hard as possible. He’s no stranger to checking people’s privates but since you actually want to have sex with him it’s different. He’s trying his hardest not to let his emotions get the better of him..
- You moan at some point, and you hear a “schieße!” Leave between his teeth. He holds you still. Your small body and sensitivity is the cause of his arousal. As he continues forward, he’s slowly losing his mind at the sound of your little squeaks. It was as if you were BEGGING to be dominated by his superior strength. He finally stops and takes his glasses off angrily, standing up. “Gott in himmel. You do horrible things to me.” He hisses, bringing you closer and lifting your legs onto his shoulders as he clumsily undoes his belt. He can’t wait.
————————————————————————
Spy:
- Shameless. During the heat of battle he decloaks within the safety of a building and beckons you with his finger. You know him too well to not suspect this’ll result in a make out session. You happily oblige.
- You walk inside, and he immediately pins you against the hard wood. Shoving his tongue into your mouth. He has to bend over as he does this and nearly kneel because of how fucking small you are. Lifts you up by your legs to hold you at his height. “Mphh! You are quite light.” He says, setting you atop a crate.
- Leaves another kiss on your lips before taking one hand and unbuttoning his suit. Allowing it to hang there and tease you with the fact it’s not fully off. “You will see my masculine, perfect chest soon enough, mon amonur. Ohhh isn’t it just relieving to know a big, big man has you in his safe arms?” He whispers. Licking his lips.
- You whimper when he puts his gloved hand into your pants. “Yeess, That’s the noise I want to hear.” He says, caressing your inner thigh. The feeling of the velvet gloves was stimulating you more. You feel like cumming right on the spot.

FUCK YEAH DEAN AND LEX WERE GAY TOGETHER I AM SO HERE FOR THAT SHIT
i was gonna ask you earlier but then i was like...what if they're not and i look silly???? either way, i'm loving the vibe of the rewrite. i'm loving the vibe of the blog as a whole, as well. reblogging pics seriously has no business being so goddamn fun.
but, i'm glad you're having a good time on this blog!! it's so cute so far and honestly just makes me super excited for the rewrite.
i hope you're doing well, babe! hope life's going good for you ♡
LMAO. yeah, they were. they're both bi. it just seems like a natural extension of their storylines, and i really liked the idea of the childhood friends (or, teenage friends?) -> lovers -> strangers -> best friends (dysfunctional)/band mates -> strangers -> brothers storyline they could have, so i jumped on it. it was good enough as it was, to have their relationship be so muddled even if they were just friends and always stayed that way, but...no! they were in love and they acted on it while they were still relatively (relatively) unharmed by the world. it was a lot more innocent than it sounds, as their joint corruptions sorta came after the fact. so my favorite part of their relationship is them both seeing the ghosts of what were once young boys turned tortured men, blah blah blah.
anyway, yes! i don't want there to be any confusion or wonderings if their thing is strictly subtext/the grounds for potential baiting - it's not, it's explicit, it's just dead and gone by the time we catch up to speed in the present day. present day being 1989.
i'm so glad you're liking the vibes of the rewrite. not to inflate my head, but i am too. i'm very proud of it thus far & of all of the little (or big) changes that the characters and plot have taken. glad u like the blog, too! this is my little sticker-book fr. i feel bad for any regular, non-affiliated blog that has already followed me for pics not knowing that i'm super annoying, but. idk, i just love it. it's like pinterest, but more personal/interactive.
everybody's excitement has me so excited, omg. i'm forced to work during the days and i have a night class, but all i wanted to do is get to work so that i can share it with everybody!!
and thank you! i hope you're doing well too, and that things are looking up in light of the difficult past week! sending love ❤︎!!

alright kink rating time since you said you wanted all da kinks.
foot, armpit, inflation, scat, piss, feederism, petplay, leather, objectification, breath play, age play, tentacle stuff, breeding, CNC, impact play, and 24/7 arrangements.
have fun!
So this is the scale I'm using for anyone that had not seen the post, which you probably have
Tumblr media
Foot - No - there's enough shit involving feet in my life, that's not coming into my sex life any time soon.
Armpits - No - not a fan of sweat, the flavour, the anything, just another piece of skin to me, not even a particularly good one.
Piss - Yes - ok so it has to be in certain conditions and the mood has to be right, but yeah I could. Imo, its best used as a humiliation thing because like, what's more embarassing than pissing yourself?
Scat - Sure - I'll tell you what's more embarassing, shitting yourself. Do I like the smell? 4/10. do I like the clean up? 2/10. Again, a fantastic humiliation tactic but it needs to be under certain circumstances for me to enjoy it. I don't wanna be doing it, my partner would have to be doing it, I don't want it on me.
Inflation - No - hits me the same way a looney tunes hammer does. Its comedic but I don't see the sexy surrounding it.
Feederism - Rather not - depends really, force feeding is cool with me but I don't really see what's hot about making someone gain weight. I suppose if you making them home made stuff to force down their face-holes there's a care aspect to it and blah blah blah idk. Probably just not my deal.
Petplay - Oh god you don't even know - I FUCKING LOVE THIS SHIT. Like, you can throw this into all kinda of shit. And shit from this can be mixed in with everything else too it is the shit.
Leather - I dunno - yeah its cool, I see the appeal, very pretty material, just not my thing.
Objectification - yes - hot. Having such control over someone that you can treat them like an object? Golden
Breath play - rather not - yeah I know how it works, yeah I know what it does, do I care for it? Not particularly. Had a friend that just thought this meant breathing heavily in someone's ear then got confused about it when I said that its choking and that's a kink thing, he said he thought it was a vanilla thing because a load of his exes liked it.
Age play - oh my fucking god you don't even know - ok so, again, this one needs explaining. Humiliation-wise I see demoting someone to the status of a toddler or whatever as very humiliating, especially if they do it themselves or if you do nothing and its involuntary. On the other hand, I really love the CG stuff involved in this, its really sweet and it just feels right to do, I'm really cuddly so there's that.
Tentacle stuff - I dunno - so, its cool cos it can bend to any shape basically. But its not a massive deal to me. Know what else can bend and has more extremities than a single tentacle? My hand, fucker has five whole fingers.
Breeding - I dunno -not saying no. I like this being used as a free use thing and also involving it with objectification etc etc, that's cool. I don't want to get someone pregnant or nout though so even the thought kills it for me.
CNC - you don't even fucking know - look, pairing it with humiliation, yes its perfect. First, being able to just grab them and say "we're fucking now" is great, like free use I guess. But CNC as a concept doesn't stop at sex, just making them do shit against their will is fantastic, people think it ends at sex but it doesn't. You've gotta have the creative brain in you to unlock the full potential of CNC.
Impact play - No (except spanking) - I don't like being mean, as oppise to what every other answer says. Just not a fan of hitting etc.
24/7 - no brainer (that's a new category I just made up) - I would love to live out my fantasies 24/7. That's so fucking hot. I'm more of a 24/6 or a 20/7 kinda guy but I wouldn't say no to 24/7.
Thank you very much @ruimtetijd you big sexy piece of shit. This was a wonderful game to play.

Hi!;)
Do you remember the “Hero, do you have limits?” question? Well, it was me! I don’t understand Hero, (but he is really interesting, and basically a living meme.) in my opinion, he is very ambiguous (And I LOVE it, it’s not a flaw at all!).
Now, “But even if Villain were a woman”…
If Ethan had been a woman, would Chris have done the same things? (You know, gender roles, toxic masculinity, blah, blah, he doesn’t seem to me a very morally independent person…)
What an interesting question!
CW: Female whumpee, mention of non-con/sexual content, sexism (ish), manipulation, implied minor whumpee, toxic masculinity and gender roles.
If Villain had been Villainess, Hero would have made some public comments about how "conflicted" he was on fighting a woman. He might have even gone easy on her a couple times. However, this has nothing to do with any ethical dilemma, and everything to do with his public perception.
Once she got captured, the main story beats would have been the same. Any "issue" about hitting a woman would vanish.
Now that I'm thinking about it, Sidekick would actually go through more change in this AU than Hero. He's certainly adapted into this toxic mindset of "boys/men don't cry" (thanks for that, Hero), and seeing Villainess cry would cause him less distress than in the original story. She's "allowed" to cry. On the flip side, I think he would soften up quicker to her. He would be the type to genuinely object to hitting a woman, unless she was attacking you first. So he'd sooner cross his tipping point of realizing what he and Hero are doing is wrong.
That's not to say Hero would be unaffected by this change. There would have been a couple details different:
- He would have made comments about her appearance, once the captivity started to show. That particular method of breaking self esteem didn't occur to him in the original storyline: since he wasn't attracted to Villain, in his eyes there was nothing "lost".
- I think that while his dialogue wouldn't change that much, the tone might be more faux-affectionate. Using petnames, belittling her, almost pretending to have pity. Those things would happen more often.
- He wouldn't have send Sidekick down there to clean her up. He was telling the truth in his answer to your question: he wouldn't do anything sexually inappropriate. And sending a teenage boy to clean an adult woman would feel icky to him. He wouldn't be gentle or anywhere near patient with Villainess while he cleaned her himself, but there's line he won't cross.
Well, one sidenote about that, actually.
There's a hint of an inflated ego in that one standard he has: in his eyes, if you can't get someone in your bed of their own accord, then that just means you're not very good at it. For him, people who commit sexually explicit crimes are basically confessing they can't get anyone to like them consensually, and he thinks very lowly of those people.
I've been thinking about how Hero would view women. We've seen what he was willing to do to Amy in the flashback. I hesitate to call him sexist, for one simple reason: yes he sees every woman as a means to an end. But he sees everyone that way.
As you can imagine, his relationships usually didn't last very long. Either he got bored, or she realized how he truly saw her.
The closest he can get to being fond of someone, is enjoying the role they fullfil to him. Jackson was good at accepting Chris's manipulation, and he was socially vulnerable, so Chris enjoyed his company. It was the closest Hero/Chris has gotten to having a friend.
Sidekick is also easily manipulated (due to being a minor and in Hero's care), so now and then Hero will feel a spark of fondness. Not really parental, more the way you like your favorite mug.

I'm so glad how you characterize Jason, it's so refreshing after every fanfic makes him this abusive monster who hates Chrissy. Obviously I don't care about him that much as a character, but the way everyone mischaracterizes him is so annoying when he's just a blah bf who definitely cared that she died lol
Tumblr media
YES! Thank you so much. He probably wasn't the greatest boyfriend, but he's just not shown to be the kind of guy who would treat Chrissy like garbage and she has to "hide" his abuse or doesn't know it's abuse. Like. Even the actors said that while Chrissy deserved better, they were high school sweethearts. He did care in his own way. Just not more than he cared about himself and his prejudices. This guy's girlfriend was brutally murdered in canon. Brutally. And his first instinct is to run to a private place to scream and cry, and then his second instinct is to take out all that anger and frustration and confusion on the nearest possible suspects. The only suspects Hawkins knew of. No, he shouldn't have beat on Corroded Coffin, no, he shouldn't have pointed a gun at Lucas, no, he shouldn't have wanted to kill Eddie, even if he was 100% sure Eddie did it. But the alternative was believing in a licorice demon from an alternate dimension, and he didn't see any evidence of that. To his mind, Patrick dying the way Patrick died could only be explained by Satanic stuff. And it was pretty Satanic. Jason didn't sleep or eat or do anything rational or good for himself physically and mentally from the moment Chrissy died. He's an 18-year-old with a very inflated ego who probably saw himself as the hero of the story. When he saw Max in her trance, his first notion was to wake her and protect her and strong-arm Lucas into freeing her. This does not seem like a guy who abuses his high school girlfriend. It just seems like a guy who has anger issues and thinks too much of himself. He was unhinged, and biased in wrong ways, but he never displayed any signs of abuse (the way certain other characters did *cough*Billy*coughcough*). Yeah. Anyway. Jason thoughts. Thank you! :)

Thinking about that post about TFs getting involved with blockchain that went around while back
***
Perceptor eyed him. "This… artwork… doesn't appear to have significant value to leverage for profit."
"Uh, no," said Brainstorm, "it's just me and my sockpuppets! We're trading stuff for incrementally higher prices."
His mouth thinned to a fine line.
Brainstorm laughed. Mostly at his face. And fondly. Perceptor was so serious. "I don't care about the art, Percy, it's funding the research project."
Perceptor looked unconvinced.
"You can say it's ugly. I know it's ugly. That's not the point. I sell it in the end. Obviously. But, see, the market is anon… well, semi-anonymous. Pseudonymous. So there's permanent indelible records of the prices it sold for, but you can't see the real world ID of traders. You can just trade between socks, inflate the price a little, make sure it looks like a really sure thing—this record keeping is great for that, let me tell you—and then sell it for—"
"So it's fraud," said Perceptor, with the kind of keen and penetrating insight that Brainstorm admired, just, so much, when it wasn't pointed at him.
He deflated. Fraud! Well. Well.
"If you want to get technical," he muttered sourly. Once again his genius was going unacknowledged because blah blah morality.
But now Perceptor was frowning in a totally different way.
"It does seem significantly more straightforward than the competitive grants process," Perceptor admitted slowly.
Yes, thought Brainstorm, a victorious little cry in the lowest recesses of his processor. Yes!

Name: 6 FT Height Halloween Inflatable Outdoor Pumpkin with Skull Body, Blow Up Yard Decoration Clearance with LED Lights Built-in for Holiday/Party/Yard/Garden
Debut: Real Life? I guess???
BOOGITY BOOGITY! Boogity blah! A post on a Sunday? Are you scared? And if that didn’t scare you, surely the subject of this post did! Just kidding. This right here is one of the most precious things I ever did see!
Halloween is all about all sorts of ghosts and ghouls and creeps and crawlies, but I think we can all agree that a Jack O’ Lantern is the number 1 symbol of Halloween. All the other creatures can appear anywhere to be spooky, sure, but if a Jack O’ Lantern is present, or even just a regular pumpkin, the vibe becomes indisputably Halloween!
A Jack O’ Lantern, though, isn’t ALWAYS a monster or creature or character. It is a decoration! As much as we may want to, we can’t be totally sure any given Jack’O decoration is meant to evoke it as a living monster. For all we know, it could be a decoration depicting a decoration! Like a framed image of a picture frame, or a table with a picture of a table on it!
If the pumpkin in question is wearing a hat, preferably a witch’s hat, we can be more confident that it is in fact a creature, assuming it wears the hat on its own volition. But we can go further. And here we are! A Jack O’ Lantern with a body! THIS is a creature. THIS is a little guy. THIS is the sweetest little thing I ever did see!
Tumblr media
Have you ever seen a pumpkin with such a sweet face? I have not! The specific curves of the eyeholes are so earnest and innocent. This is the face of a little ghoul who has just received a really splendid lollipop, and is like, “Gee! For me?” Yes, for you!
I was going back and forth over whether the pumpkin is its true face or if it is a skeleton wearing a pumpkin as a mask, but I think the pumpkin is the true face here, mainly because I want that to be the expression it is making itself. Its mother put this sentient pumpkin on a headless skeleton to use as a body, just as her mother did, and just as has happened for generations.
The combination of Jack O’ Lantern, Witch Hat, Skeleton Body, and Candy make this, to me, the most Halloween creature I have ever seen, and I think this should be the official mascot of the holiday. Like Santa and the Easter Bunny. This is probably THE Jack O’Lantern, who the ones we carve are named in honor of! I don’t think one inflatable lawn decoration is enough, I want to hug a plush of this character. And what will we do when we collectively agree to phase out lawns entirely?
Tumblr media
Thankfully, the official product listings reassure us that "Beside Halloween, it can be used as any other holiday decoration. Installed in the courtyard to enjoy Holiday with your family and spreading a happiness atmosphere to your neighborhoods.” That is so true! This can be used for any holiday! Thanksgiving? Pumpkin! Christmas? Guess who got a new trick-or-treat pail in their stocking! Valentine’s Day and Easter? Candy! St. Patrick’s Day? Leprechauns love hat buckles!
The last part of that sentence is very nice, isn’t it? “spreading a happiness atmosphere to your neighborhoods”. It really does! I saw this on a lawn once, and it delighted me to no end, and now I am spreading the knowedge of it to everyone I can. I hope this little Halloween buddy has made you happy, and I hope you have a happy Halloween!
Tumblr media
BOO!

Hello welcome to a conversation with Cookie and Sophie (@sxphiemxlfoy)
Today’s topic we present: Are waffles better than pancakes?
prepare because this is hella long
warning: mild swearing words
Cookie: Ok look, if I tell you I have 7 waffle makers would you believe me?
Sophie: Yes.
Cookie: The hell? You believe I have 7 waffle makers???????????
Sophie: Yes. You would be the most probable to buy 7 waffle makers for fun out of the both of us.
Cookie: Ok that’s not how it was supposed to go. You were going to tell me no and then I send you a pic and say 'do you believe me now?'
Sophie: But I know you, so i knew you'll probably have 7 waffle makers.
Cookie: STICK TO THE SCRIPT [throws paper across the room].
Sophie: Ok ok let's try that again.
Sophie: [in character] No, I would not believe you.
Cookie:
Sophie:
Cookie:
Sophie:
Cookie: Oh right it's my line.
Cookie: [sends pic] Do you believe me now?
Sophie: [without emotion] Yes. I did not believe you before. What a terrible mistake that was.
Cookie: Please don't be an actor you'll die starving.
Sophie: It's cause i knew you would have a lot of waffle makers.
Cookie: I only have 1 waffle maker. 2 actually.
Sophie: I have none 😃👍
Cookie: 👌🏻
Sophie: Cause i prefer pancakes.
Cookie: GASP HOW DARE YOU.
Sophie: :D
Cookie: NINA ZENIK WOULD BE SO DISAPPOINTED.
Sophie: IM SORRY NINA.
Sophie: But I really like pancakes, waffles are just inflated.
Cookie: You call yourself a Danielle Galligan stan and you prefer pancakes over waffle.
Cookie: Pancakes are just flat, waffles have cool designs.
Sophie: BUT PANCAKES ARE VERY GOOD.
Cookie: ITS THE SAME SH!T BUT WITH A DIFFERENT PATTERN.
Sophie: BUT THEY ARE INFLATED AND THAT SH!T IS DEPRESSING.
Cookie: Pancakes are normal, that's boring.
Sophie: It's easier to fvck up a waffle that fvck up a pancake.
Cookie: It’s actually easier to fuck up a pancake than to fuck up a waffle. In waffles you just have to wait and pull it out (that sounded horrible).
Cookie: In pancakes you have to make sure the other side is cooked so you can flip it and then if you don’t flip it correctly it’s horrible.
Sophie: Yeah but waffles suck, Pancake supremacy.
Cookie: Waffles are weird, they are unique.
Sophie: They are just... worse than pancakes.
Cookie: Exactly.
Sophie: You just agreed that waffles are worse than pancakes. I win.
Cookie: You don't win. In fact [blocks Sophie]
- In another social media platform -
Sophie: F you.
Cookie: Waffles supremacy.
Sophie: Nope. Pancake supremacy.
Sophie: Please unblock me before I write paragraphs and paragraphs on Tumblr so that you can please unblock me. (she actually did post something)
Cookie: I won't, you insulted me and waffles ;-;.
Sophie: I didn't insult you.
Cookie: You insulted waffles, that means you insulted me.
Sophie: Just the waffles. Please.
Cookie: No, I hate you.
Sophie: Don't, please.
Cookie: Why did you insult waffles? ;-;
Sophie: Cause you started saying pancakes were worse than waffles.
Cookie: Because you were saying that waffles were worse than pancakes.
Sophie: Cause they are ;-;.
Cookie: B!tch hOW THE HELL DO YOU WANT ME TO UNBLOCK YOU WHEN YOU SAY THAT.
Sophie: CAUSE IM SAYING THE TRUTH.
Cookie: IT IS NOT THE TRUTH.
Sophie: IT IS.
Cookie: YOU WILL REAMIN UNBLOCKED UNTIL YOU APOLOGIZE, THEN I WILL APOLOGIZE. (I made typo there)
Sophie: Unblocked? ( ͡. ͜ʖ ͡.)
Cookie: For that comment you will remain blocked for eternity.
Sophie: Nooooo.
Cookie: APOLOGIZE.
Sophie: NO.
Cookie: OK ILL SEE YOU IN A FEW YEARS WHEN I GO TO YOUR FUNERAL.
Sophie: OKAY.
[Sophie posts 'unblock me @brekkercookie. i didn't mean it...' blah blah i forgot lol]
Cookie: You don't want me answering that message, I mean it.
Sophie: Yes I do. I said I didn't mean it, so answer it saying that you accept my apology and then proceed to unblock me.
Cookie: You didn't mean that you mean it.
Sophie: Please, I do. Agree to disagree, everyone has their own opinions.
Cookie: Say 'I'm sorry for offending the waffles, and I'll say 'I'm sorry for offending the pancakes'.
Sophie: No you apologize first, you insulted my acting skills first.
Cookie: YOU INSULTED THE WAFFLES FIRST.
Sophie: NO I DIDNT.
Cookie: [sends photo thinking that the offense was said first]
Sophie: [sends photo proving Cookie insulted first]
Cookie: Ok I'll apologize for your acting skills. i'm sorry I called you a bad actress.
Sophie: And telling me Nina would be dissapointed in me.
Cookie: She would, I'm not apologizing for that.
Sophie: Ok. I'm sorry for saying waffles suck.
Cookie: I'm sorry for saying pancakes were boring.
boom happy ending
Thanks for coming to our presentation

I still don't know if I completely understand that nft thing, but wouldn't it probably be just something like a very exklusiv vip package? Like what lewis Capaldi is doing. If ppl want to pay that much money just so they can say it's exclusive, they can knock themselves out, but I don't understand why this would be so much different than ppl paying lots of money for a meet&greet or a picture. Apart from the environmental impact, which I think you also have to see in context, I don't see why it would be so much worse or different? It's sth for prob a relatively small amount of ppl who are willing to pay for these nfts, but it doesn't have an impact on the other fans, does it? I'm not in favor of nfts, I'm just still confused about the whole thing
i mean....i think that's what they're marketing it as and want it to seem like, but in actuality, it feels much more insidious than that, at least to me. like, first off you have the fact that because it's a form of cryptocurrency, it functions more like a stock than any ~normal sort of purchase-able good, which means the prices fluctuate up and down based on the demand for a certain item. this post here explains it better, and one of the people in the tags even talks about how when KOL released their NFT packages for their latest album, they set the price at what would have equated to $50 on day one, but by a week or two into the sale, the price had already inflated to what equated to $63. and so i think while it's one thing to have a set price for exclusives—where even tho it might be a lot of money, if someone can get a hold of that said amount of money, they know they'll be able to have that item / experience—it feels like a COMPLETELY different thing to me to move access to exclusives to a platform that caters to whoever has the most money, you know??? and yes i know capitalism, we live in a society, blah blah blah, but it's just gross to me that celebrities and artists that are already rich are using this system to make a quick buck at the expense of their own fans, whether directly via the pricing scheme or indirectly via fans being priced out entirely and the exclusives going to the already rich or collectors.
secondly, i'm not sure what context would justify days, weeks, or even YEARS worth of energy for the average US / UK household being consumed in a matter of seconds for a single transaction but yk 🤪✌️ (articles: here, explaining all about the issues with cryptoart (/ NFTs, since they function in generally the same way); here, an artist that talks about how he sold 6 pieces of cryptoart and consumed more energy in 10 seconds than his entire studio over the course of 2 years; here, an article about the energy consumption of ethereum specifically, which is the cryptocurrency that NFTs are based on)

a sort of organised analysis of The Gifted characters:
pt 2: Wave
(this analysis includes episodes 1-13 of season one and 1-7 of season two, so it probably isn’t completely accurate, but i tried my best. also please excuse my shitty grammar and spelling if I noticed it i would’ve fixed it lmao)
Characteristics and qualities in the beginning of season 1
I’m writing this while listening to love score on loop lmao so if smth I write makes no sense I blame it on nanon’s high note. RAK TER DAI REBLAOW. okay so in episode one Wave just seems like that classic draco malfoy mean dude with his whole wIpE mY fReAkInG fOoT bullshit. But wait... what’s this??? an egotistical personality that comes from past trauma??? yep, lmao. But we’ll talk more about that in the next section.
Throughout the show, Wave displays his ego very clearly, but he also show’s his intelligence. I don’t think i need to explain but in case you need examples: first discovered his potential and revealed it, solved the problem from the academic competition punn was in, almost beat all of the gifted squad when he had the plan to “leak” the gifted program info (he could’ve done it if pang didn’t use his potential, which wave didn’t know the details of, unlike the rest of his classmates), did a research project in eighth grade that was plagiarized to be used as a MASTERS(?) DEGREE THESIS. Bitch is smart as fuck, on contrary to Pang, who also has an inflated ego. (I will discuss how their egos are different in the next part). His intelligence isn’t only academic, but he’s also street smart, and he knows how to provoke people (like when he came back at ohm’s joke + when he provokes punn)
Wave doesn’t really show a lot of depth in the beginning, but to sum it up: ego, smart, kinda cocky and wants to be the best, doesn’t seem to trust anyone, very straight forward/has a level of confidence, cool/mysterious so I don’t really mind him being mean cuz im interested in his back story.
okay lets move one to where wave has a backstory and development.
Characteristics and qualities from episode 9 - 12 of season 1
Wave... was mentally/emotionally groomed when he was in eighth grade and had his work plagiarized. Yeah. On top of that, he’s an orphan with grandparents/guardians who don’t provide him enough emotional support for him to develop properly as an adolescent. These traumatic experiences affected him in so many ways.
In the flashbacks, we see Wave being shy, introverted, and he lacks the confidence he has in the present. His eighth grade self lacks self confidence, since a majority of the adults in his life have told him that he was dumb/he wasn’t good enough. On top of that, he has no emotional support (adults or peers) to seek help from and was probably very lonely for a long time. Well, if Wave is in M4 (aged 15-16) in season 1, and he was in lower secondary school in the flashbacks (probably M3, aged 14-15), which means that his personality changed/developed pretty quickly. What triggered this change you ask? MS. NARA. THE BITCH AND ONLY. FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT WHO I HATE AND WANT TO DROP KICK.
Let’s talk about Ms. Nara, shall we? To say the least, she mentally/emotionally groomed Wave into trusting her, and even having a crush on her. She encouraged him to do work that she would eventually plagiarize for her masters degree thesis. That’s the shit she did. Fucking bitch I hate her. And Wave trusted her really easily because again, he significantly lacked emotional support, so once he received it, he was very welcoming of it. This allowed for ms. bitchass to groom him more easily. She praised his talent, spent a lot of time with him, encouraged him to do more, and brought his ego up. Her effect on Wave stuck with him, since it wasn’t really that long ago, and he could even remember little words/phrases she would say. “You talk big game, huh?” is one of the things she said to Wave, and when Namtaan said the same thing to him, you could see him thinking back to those times with ms. bitchass. lmao almost everyone in this show has trauma. Now, when Wave decided to expose ms. bitchass for buying her bachelors degree and get her fired, that shows basically where he became like the wave from season 1. He wanted to win against her. He couldn’t let her get away with what she did to him. After all, isn’t he extremely talented? Despite him disposing of ms. bitchass, he still took in her words of encouragement and praise. He still believed it all. But after she “betrayed” him, he must’ve felt that perhaps she was lying... so in turn, he had to prove that he indeed was talented by getting back at ms. bitchass.
Ah yes, Wave is indeed a cocky motherfucker. But his ego can be easily tarnished by adults. The reason why I say adults, is because I don’t think he has ever felt threatened by a gifted student, other than Pang. When Punn tried to provoke him by saying he didn’t get head student, Wave didn’t give a shit cuz he knew (thought) he was better. But when Director Supot says “Wasuthorn im disappointed in you” and shit like that, Wave listens to it and gets pissed as hell. A lot of these behaviors come from his trauma with Ms. Nara. If you look at almost any internal conflict he has, it can be traced back to his self-worth and/or trust issues that stemmed from Ms. Nara. 
I don’t think I’ll need to explain this much but Wave’s need to win at everything is basically to prove to everyone (but actually just to himself) that he’s better/more talented than everyone else again because of his past trauma and how he had almost no emotional support.
Okay now I’m gonna talk about his relationship with Pang and their trust. This is the part where I’ll get the most wrong cuz episode 9 of tgg just fucking came out and im rushing cuz i wanna watch it. Again, unlike other peers, Pang reaches out to Wave as an equal, and they have an agreed ideal. Fuck the school system, it just makes kids feel bad about themselves and give them trauma. At first, I think Wave trusted Pang because of his idealistic and almost naive outlook on the world; he just seemed good, and like he genuinely wanted to do something to better people. However, in the end his ideals and beliefs to align with Pang’s exactly. No one wanted to give up their potentials for their own reasons, Wave’s being to protect his breakable ego. lmao this is getting messy im so sorry welp lets move on.
Characteristics and qualities from season 2, until episode 7
Wave trusts Pang. He says it to Time. It’s made clear in the beginning. But when Pang decides on things on his own and tries to find Korn on his own, Wave starts to see a pattern. Pang (unknowingly) only comes to Wave when he needs help with something regarding doing the right thing blah blah blah hero complex shit. and like Wave said, once he doesn’t agree with Pang, he just does everything on his own, like his view is the only correct one.
Lets take Korn for example. Or the whole “there’s an imposter among us” drama. Wave was the one with the braincell in the moment. He was the one to conclude that they could be someone within the group who betrayed them. He looked at the situation logically, while Pang was looking at it idealistically. This is what separates them and causes friction between them. Wave can separate and balance his ideals/logic/emotions, while Pang’s ideals/logic/emotion are all smushed together and combined.
Last point: his last fight with pang (episode 7) was a valid one. Wave was hurt af. and i think he started to see Pang as another Ms. Nara. The difference here is that Pang is a kid, and he’s also unstable, so they’re both affected by what he’s doing. It is possible that Punn used Pang’s potential on Wave, but it wouldn’t be out of character if the fight came up naturally.
Summary
Has an inflated, yet breakable ego
does what he can to prove that he’s talented/good enough to protect his ego from shattering
trust issues (stemming from Ms. Nara)
a smart boi
he can balance his ideals/logic/emotions most of the time
Sees Ms. Nara in everyone, compares all of his relationships to the one between him and Ms. Nara
Genuinely cares for people and is afraid to lose the emotional support he has (since he lacked so much of it in his childhood)
A smol bean that must be protected
Cocky
could probably be the villain to a superhero movie if he wanted to

I was going to comment on your tags that the "uncle coop" scene was stupid. I agree. It was another instance of the show telling us Coop is going to be her husband instead of actually developing their relationship. A lot of Phoebe and Coops relationship is about the show telling us instead of showing us.
yeah exactly like!!! again as previously stated i really like phoebe and coop i think they are very much compatible and i think they’d make a wonderful couple and parents blah blah blah i really like them. but like. i should man. coop was designed for one sole purpose and it was to be compatible with phoebe like yes you could argue he had to be there to time travelly save the finale but like. no. his one purpose was to be phoebe’s love interest so One Would Think that would be enough to you know yield a relationship as you have literally in this instance built soulmates but no!!! everything about their relationship is so manufactured it’s wild i mean hello the elders felt bad about ruining her love life so they sent her a cupid do love doctor this? girl what? and then!! you guys fall in love but oh no that wasn’t supposed to happen what now? psych!! the elders sent you this cupid specifically so you would fall in love with him. so. congrats! have at it! i repeat: Girl What?? like?? where is the love in that fr i will state for the record i thought it was very funny that the elders just straight up forgot to mention that part and phoebe and coop are like how are we gonna do this forbidden love oh no woe is me even tho theoretically they are you know. soulmates sent by the elders. but yeah. just a lot of that relationship is you know. like you said!! telling not showing. and like. it would not have been difficult to Not to that i mean look at paige and henry managed to pull that one off w/o cosmic interference hell even s2 cupid you’ve shown you can do it before you had options people!! i think it does get into some weird meta if we start to really breakdown the elders sending coop (let’s also talk!! they just send “a cupid” !!!! hoping she’d fall in love with him there was literally no one in particular like what?!?!?) as a stand in for the writers themselves building phoebe’s endgame in like what. six episodes or less? thereabouts? but imho i think it was just like you know the end of the day they really couldn’t pull another epic love story outta their asses so they just kinda took one of those large inflatable mallets from the county fair and beat us over the head with it like phoebe! and! coop! are! endgame!

So @summerofspock has got me at it again. She mentioned Ella Enchanted AU so here’s me rambling about it because ELLA ENCHANTED!!!!!
It’s hard to know which of the two to have as which if you’re going for an Azcrow AU. That is, with the movie version it’s easy, Crowley as the spunky Ella and Aziraphale as the well-meaning but ineffectual Char and Gabriel as the obviously evil manipulative uncle. But we’re not doing movie version - the movie is fine as a cheesy movie, but it’s not Ella Enchanted. Book!Ella Enchanted only please.
So on one hand there’s Aziraphale with forced obedience and Crowley as the one who fell in love with Aziraphale the first time they met and steadfastly tries to woo oblivious Aziraphale, who eventually has to break off the relationship to protect Crowley and is only able to embrace living his best life and his love for Crowley after he rids himself of that which was holding him back and forcing him into compliance. Which works really well, honestly better than I was expecting when I started typing this.
Here’s the thing though. When we discuss the character of Ella I would say her central defining trait is defiance. She is cursed to be obedient, yes, but she’s constantly fighting that, both in little ways (coming back with only two nuts for a recipe after being told to fetch “a few”) and big ways (when told she can’t speak to her best friend anymore she straight up ran away from finishing school which allowed her to obey the no talking command without having to cruelly ignore her friend to her face). That type of defiance is just not apart of Aziraphale’s character, not until he breaks from Heaven right before the climax. That’s more Crowley’s character, but switch Crowley to Ella and Aziraphale to Char isn’t ideal either.
So I had a thought. Anathema for Ella. The obedience curse is now a stand in for the weight of expectation from her family/being a professional descendent. Unlike Ella I think Anathema would largely accept that being obedient was a part of herself and not seek to get rid of it (she would go to the giant wedding because she thought it sounded interesting and asking Lucinda about the curse is a spur of the moment thing), but beyond that Anathema would still steadfastly do things the way she thinks they ought to be done despite what society thinks of her. This slots Newt in as Char, and while Newt is a bit more hapless than Char is, genuinely good guy who positively adores Anathema fits him pretty well. And Newt is the one who encourages Anathema to look past what’s expected of her and do whatever she wants to do, which works well with Ella having thrown off the curse for Char.
But I have not forgot Aziraphale and Crowley! In this version Crowley is Mandy and Aziraphale is Lucinda. Okay, just bear with me. In this fusion version of Ella Enchanted, fairies work a little differently. They make a point of blending in with humans on the day-to-day, but sometimes on special occasions they’ll reveal themselves to give a blessing. Crowley is a fairy who broke with their general society a long time ago, feeling that the blessings fairies were giving were only to inflate their own sense of self-importance and not for the benefit of the blessed. Aziraphale has private doubts and anxiety, but has not seen fit to break away from the other fairies. Crowley and Aziraphale are in love. Obviously. But they aren’t together right now because of this difference of opinion.
In terms of the actual story, Aziraphale “blessed” Anathema with obedience because of peer pressure from other fairies (same with the blessing at the giant wedding, but it was probably a different fairy (Gabriel? The same one who told Anathema to be happy with obedience) at Anathema’s father’s wedding, and also other angels=other fairies). Crowley was at the christening as well, and stepped in to watch over Anathema for Aziraphale. Of course Crowley ends up loving Anathema for her own sake, and when she has her break down about rejecting Newt’s proposal, Crowley snaps and summons Aziraphale. He tells Aziraphale that this isn’t about him, he’s willing to wait for however long it takes, but Aziraphale is hurting people Crowley cares about now and it can’t go on. So Aziraphale does the stint with trying out various blessings, realizes the whole thing sucks, and agrees to remove Anathema’s curse. Only he can’t. He tries, but the curse just won’t come off. He offers her a way to summon him if there’s anything else she needs help with, then leaves to go sort out his shit after telling Crowley they will talk soon.
Blah, blah, blah, the balls start. Aziraphale and Crowley both help Anathema go. The two of them are still circling around each other on the evening of the second ball, but when Anathema comes home panicked on the third evening the two of them are in bed together, so that’s that sorted. Finally there’s the confrontation where Anathema refuses to marry Newt, breaking the curse. It turns out Aziraphale couldn’t lift it because Anathema had accepted it as a part of herself, and it wasn’t until she actively rejected it that it could be broken. Anathema and Newt marry, Aziraphale and Crowley marry, and they all live happily ever after.
(I am still accepting suggestions for Dame Olga, Hattie, and Olive at this time.)

95. Do you know how to demonstrate things in order to show someone how to do something? I do feel like I suck at trying to explain things to others for the most part, but I guess it depends on the thing. 
96. In what ways do you deviate from “the norm”? I’m soon to be 31 years old and I still live at home with my parents, with no plans to move out anytime soon. I don’t have a job. I don’t have much, basically none, relationship experience. I’m a virgin. I’m just not a functioning adult.
97. How long after you take a painkiller does the pain start to dissipate? It typically takes about 30 minutes, but on really bad pain/flare up days it can take an hour or so and sometimes not until I have the next dose.
98. Do you feel the need to dominate in conversations? Nooo. I’m much more of a listener and I’ll throw the convo back to the other person.
99. Would you ever domesticate a wild animal? Why or why not? No.
100. Who is the last person you congratulated? For what? I don’t remember.
101. Would you like to decapitate anyone? Who, and why? Uh, no!
102. Do you ever think that you could duplicate something you’ve tried before?   Uhh, like what?
103. What do you feel you could educate others about? I don’t know. Remember before how I said I suck at explaining things to others?
104. What elevates your stress level? My heath, my life (including things related to my loved ones in my life, such as their health issues and things they’re dealing with/going through), and just...life in general, man. There’s a lot going on this year alone.
105. Do you have a tendency to make situations escalate? In my mind cause I jump to the worst conclusions. My natural reaction is to freak out.
106.  How good are you at estimating? Uhh, depends what I’m estimating.
107. Do you fabricate your stories? No. 
108. What is something that fascinates you? Psychology.
109. How long does it take you to formulate a game plan? Hmm. Depends.
110. What tends to make your blood pressure fluctuate? Stress and anxiety.
111. How do you generate enough energy to get through your day? What energy? I’m seriously lacking.
112. When did you graduate? I graduated UC back in 2015.
113. When you’re in a department store, which section do you gravitate towards most often? The clothes.
114. How often do you hesitate before doing or saying something? Often.
115. Do you ever wish that you could just hibernate? Yes.
116. Does anyone try to imitate you? Does it get on your nerves? No, but that would most definitely get on my nerves.
117. Do you like to instigate others? Nooo. I’m not an instigator.
118. Could you illustrate a children’s book? I couldn’t illustrate anything, I’m an artist at all.
119. Do you marinate your meats? I don’t cook.
120. Do you masturbate? No. What a way to end, ha.

BnHA Chapter 233: At Least He Has Some Spares
Previously on BnHA: Twice made a duplicate League of Villains to take on Re-Destro. Re-Destro took this in stride and very calmly inflated his left fucking arm and slapped the whole lot of them so hard that most of them literally died. But the clone Shigaraki survived somehow and scuffled with RD for a bit while RD told him the story of how his great-great-granddad was born with a quirk and his mom was like “please be kind to my baby” and society was like “nah” and then they killed her too just for good measure. Anyway so this was of course the original Destro’s Origin Story, and his mother later on became a kind of martyr figure once society began rethinking their whole outlook on the whole superpower thing, and they even borrowed the term “quirk” from her as a way of trying to honor her I guess. But Destro and his descendants weren’t happy with the fact that quirks are still regulated and ~suppressed~ and blah blah blah, so I guess in RD’s mind this gives him justification to be a massive dick and wantonly murder people left and right. It’s all very political and complicated. Anyway, so in the end the Actual Tomura came over to RD’s tower and used his quirk and the tower came crumbling down, and now Tomura and Re-Destro are gonna fight.
Today on BnHA: We jump around Deika City getting updates on the rest of the League. Twice is currently trying to save Toga while Skeptic sneaks up on them both. Spinner is duking it out with Hanabata and his squad of Dudes With Spikes All Over Them And Stuff. We learn that Spinner’s quirk really is just “Lizard Quirk. That’s It. That’s The Quirk”, which, fine, whatever then. Dabi and Blue Bunny and Compress are off somewhere, presumably. Slidin’ Go is directing traffic and about to be flattened by Gigantomachia (or so we can hope). Giran is running off with one of the clone Twices (“running off” as in to safety, as opposed to them getting married or something. although). And Tomura is having his hand ripped off by a Hulkified Re-Destro and his newly revealed Stress quirk! Just, plucked right the fuck off, like a flower petal. It’s pretty horrific! And meanwhile Horikoshi is dipping out to go take an honestly well-deserved vacation, so there won’t be a new chapter next week. So basically just good news all around. Anyhow, so Tomura seems to have his hands full here and it may be time for him to hand in the towel and hand things off to Machia before things get out of hand even more well anyways enjoy the chapter guys.
(All comments are my unspoiled reactions from my initial readthrough of the chapter. I did a quick edit for grammar and clarity immediately afterward, and added a few ETAs in the process, but aside from that there are no changes.)
so once again I got an Intriguing Anonymous Ask, but I only skimmed it because it seemed to delve into some of the details of the chapter, albeit in a very vague way that probably didn’t actually reveal anything. but one thing I did pick up on was that there may possibly be a break after this week’s chapter? if so I will cry but then I’ll get over it I GUESS
(ETA: well enjoy your hiatus then Horikoshi you knave.)
anyway so let’s get into it
quick observation before I actually start reading the chapter itself -- so apparently the title is “Bright Future”? correct me if I’m wrong, but I thought we already had a chapter with that same title though. chapter 161, also known as the Nighteye Fucking Dies chapter. is the kanji slightly different or something, perhaps? if not that is odd
(ETA: so after reading the chapter, serious question: is this Horikoshi’s idea of a joke, or. ...
but yeah, the kanji is different. or rather, this chapter’s title isn’t written in kanji at all, but in katakana, whereas 161 was written in kanji like normal. as for the why of it, though, your guess is as good as mine. right now “mangaka has a fucked-up sense of humor” is basically at the top of my reasons list.)
anyways, clicking to the actual chapter now, and... oh wow
Tumblr media
okay I think I mentioned the movie The Island a few recaps back, and my sincere apologies to everyone for making repeated references to a typically dumb and explosion-y Michael Bay movie where Ewan McGregor tries and fails to speak in an American accent and everything explodes for no reason and the protagonists cause so much collateral damage while being hunted down by the bad guys that you almost start to wonder if it wouldn’t actually be better for everyone if they did just die. but anyway, so I’m sorry to keep coming back to this movie, but -- and spoiler alert for a 14-year-old Michael Bay film you guys -- the plot is basically that scientists figured out how to clone people, and so Rich People immediately proceeded to make clones of themselves to keep for spare parts so that if they ever needed organ donors or the like, they’d have a perfect match available
and anyway, so you can see the connection here, right? basically this is a super-pragmatic application of Twice’s quirk, and I have to applaud the logic and ingenuity, but also bro that’s kind of a fucked-up thing to do though, sob. let’s just make a spare Toga so we can immediately harvest her blood, oh boy. though in fairness it is Toga, so maybe she won’t mind since Harvesting Blood is like her thing
also can we take a moment to appreciate how thoroughly wrecked this Skeptic!Puppet!Twice is, though. the one that’s just lying there dead. like, his leg’s all bent the wrong way and he no longer has a face and I fucking can’t stop staring at it though. I feel better knowing that it wasn’t actually a real person because that’s seriously all kinds of fucked up
anyway now the Twice clones are arguing over who gets to measure Toga. and Horikoshi has honestly built up a lot of goodwill with me over the course of this Mineta-less arc filled with hot Girans and LoV character development, but all the same he’d better watch himself though, because all of that could be gone just like that in an instant if he tries to get cute! so don’t push it dude
(ETA: and not to harp on this or anything, but Twice did clone Toga back during the My Basement Academia arc (in chapter 147), so there wasn’t really a need for this scene to begin with. but whatever, he didn’t really go overboard at least.)
okay good, actual!Twice (? is he the real one?? he’s the only one without a mask and he’s not using his arms so I think it’s him, at any rate) is shouting at the others to get their shit together
Tumblr media
Twice Status: Still Hot. wow, and barely two seconds after I made that remark about Horikoshi needing to focus up. should I take my own advice perhaps. eh
oh my god
Tumblr media
nooooo now I’m actually really upset that one of them’s gonna get sacrificed for the other! noooo Toga
and now we’re getting additional background information on Twice’s quirk, specifically about the fact that his clones’ appearances and personalities/memories are based on the last time the clone target was measured and the last time Twice saw said target, respectively. makes sense. so anyway because of that the clone Toga is also all beat up
friendly reminder that Toga is only seventeen and still just a kid, albeit a freaky sort of horror movie-type kid. but anyway, so I’m feeling really fucking protective of her though, and I need them to hurry up and save her already!
oh my god
Tumblr media
yes, Dabi is the poster boy for great plastic surgery results. staples left in and everything. then again I don’t know how bad off he looked before, though. we still don’t actually know what the original injury was, aside from it obviously having something to do with the whole “his quirk fucking burns him from the inside out” thing we recently learned. you know what might help with that, Horikoshi? a flashback, omg
yuh oh
Tumblr media
gonna go out on a limb here and guess that this is Skeptic coming to fix his screw-up before Re-Destro snaps his neck like so many Mitsubishis. or whatever that damn mouse’s name was. Miyashita?? actually I think that was it lol
anyways so let’s now turn the page and confirm if it actually is Skeptic
Tumblr media
...confirmed
also, holy shit. just, holy shit to everything. that freaky close-up of the puppets’ faces; that blobby image of one of the puppets being formed; Skeptic’s crazy eyes in the bottom panel; him screaming I HAVEN’T FAILED!!! over and over again, etcetera. just, everything. good lord
and now we’re cutting somewhere else. looks like it’s Spinner and a bunch of the clone Twices dealing with Hanabata’s over-inspired lackeys
Tumblr media
Spinner what is your quirk
okay so as he’s fighting he’s doing that shounen thing where he uses his keen observational skills to come up with a strategy on the fly
Tumblr media
yes, please feel free to take him out! he’s annoying and he hasn’t done anything interesting, so really he’s just dead weight as far as this arc goes. feel free to use your quirk, too, buddy. if you even have one, holy shit. Horikoshi’s probably keeping it safe in the same place as Kacchan’s hero name
anyway so now he’s fighting his way through the waves of redshirts and trying to reach Hanabata’s van
he’s thinking that his job is to “lighten Shigaraki’s burden, if only a little”
awww. League of Loyal Bastards. I can’t believe there was ever a question of you possibly betraying these guys, Spinner. I’m sorry for doubting you, guy
Hanabata seems worryingly unconcerned, though
Tumblr media
who the hell wears their watch on their right hand? what time is it, Hanabata? it’s time for you to fucking die already that’s what
-- oh
Tumblr media
so it’s some kind of Magic Quirk Watch then, eh. should have figured as much
also, “A MAN WITH A WEAK SUPERPOWER SUCH AS YOURSELF” oh? please do tell us more about this quirk! also how is it that you of all people know Spinner’s quirk. Giran’s intel, I guess? I’m suddenly really annoyed that the Liberation Army apparently knows more about the LoV than we do. bastards
anyway so now Hanabata’s own quirk is being revealed, so I guess let’s see what that’s all about
Tumblr media Tumblr media
okay so this is exactly what we all thought it was based on what we’ve seen of him so far. so I guess this weird mask is basically just a big microphone thing. imagine if his and Mic’s quirks were combined
at any rate if it’s not clear, I really couldn’t give two farts about Hanabata or his quirk and I just want to see Spinner take him out, and then have Gigantomachia show up and save Toga and Twice, and see Tomura kick RD’s ass. oh and Dabi still needs to beat up Rita’s Italian Ice too, I guess
(ETA: okay but Horikoshi would it really be too much to ask for at least one of these things to actually happen oh my god. my poor villain children.)
-- OH MY GOD
Tumblr media Tumblr media
EVERYONE SHUT UP SPINNER’S QUIRK IS FINALLY BEING REVEALED AHHHH
lmao was I too invested in this perhaps. all this time and all this mystery and it really does end up being some little lizard quirk that lets him cling to walls? and this is how it’s revealed of all ways? he doesn’t even get an official Quirk Reveal Box?
I mean, this can’t possibly be it. he’s gonna do something badass and unexpected, and then we’ll get his Quirk Box and we’ll all be like, “OH SHIT! SPINNER!” and so forth. right??
(ETA: I seriously can’t decide if this will actually be the case, or if this is another Sports Festival scenario where I’m firmly expecting the typical shounen thing and Horikoshi has something else planned entirely.)
wow
Tumblr media
as opposed to you? your power is literally just “I can get stupid people all hyped up.” it’s probably given you an overinflated sense of your own importance, and I can’t wait for you to get one-upped by this lil lizard boy with his ninja turtles costume and the tactical knife he bought on Amazon
oh shit lol
Tumblr media
so I guess that’s as good a way as any of syncing up all of this action to one timeline again
heh Hanabata’s panicking a bit
Tumblr media
I’m enjoying this, ngl
oh shit!
Tumblr media
this motherfucker really popped through a magic quirk hole in the wall and grabbed onto Spinner and suddenly got all spiny just like that oh shit
AHHH
Tumblr media
SOMEONE HELP OUR BOY, HE’S BEING PORCUPINED BY FUCKING REDSHIRTS. WHAT IS THIS
now Hanabata’s directing all of the remaining cannon fodder to go and help Re-Destro. well at least that’ll get some of them off of Spinner’s back
YESSSSSSS
Tumblr media
GET HIM SPINNER GO FOR THE JUGULAR!!
AHHH SPINNER FLASHBACKS YESSSSS, THE MY FLASHBACKS ACADEMIA ARC CONTINUES
Tumblr media
I’ve suddenly been struck by the urgent need to go do my dishes from last night omg. Spinner would it kill you to take the fucking trash out at least
oh shit you guys he’s making a speech!
Tumblr media
IT’S HAPPENNIIIIIIING. go, Spinner! speech! and then kick some ass! and then Quirk Reveal Box and “OH SHIT! SPINNER!” just like we planned!!
Tumblr media
sob why am I empathizing with this guy who’s getting inspired by Stain and then by Tomura’s “let’s destroy everything! :)” rant of all things. what has this arc done to me. Spinner I can’t relate to you at all omg. but, just like every other member of the League of Villains, at your core you’re really just someone who was searching for a place to belong, and damned if that’s not the most quintessentially human struggle of all
so to sum, you sure picked some questionable role models there but I support you, kid
Tumblr media
sure Horikoshi, go ahead and just fling Spinner’s super-weak and boring quirk in my fucking face then! lol okay I get it! it was never meant to be some big reveal to wow us all at a dramatic moment; the whole point is that he’s utterly unremarkable, and it doesn’t matter because despite what the MLA believes, quirks don’t define who a person is. all right, all right. that’s cool then
Tumblr media
no you dingus he’s trying to say that even if he doesn’t have a big flashy quirk, y’all ain’t shit either and he’s still going to kick your ass
-- OH SHIT YOU GUYS!!
Tumblr media
WE INTERRUPT THIS PROGRAM TO ADVISE YOU ALL THAT OUR HANDSOME BOY GIRAN SURVIVED THE TOWER FALL AND IS FINE AND DANDY! and still handsome! so we all can rest easy now on that account, thank god
omg omg omg
Tumblr media
Tomura VS Re-Destro hype intensifies!!
also lmao because I genuinely think he’s asking him for real because he can’t quite sort out reality from his sleep-deprived hallucinations right now
or maybe that shouldn’t be “lmao” on my part, because that’s actually a legitimately concerning thing, there. but I can’t help it guys, he’s so tired and fully and entirely out of fucks, and RD is so fucking screwed and doesn’t even know it and it’s going to be so goddamn satisfying I can’t fucking wait
anyways, no, Tomura. he was not. but he’s apparently got some sort of Hulk quirk. so you just do your best and you sic your own Hulk on him then if need be
yessss he’s talking trash, yes, Tomura!! you’re doing great!!
Tumblr media
IT PROBABLY FEELS BAD! I BET! HAHAHA. SUCK IT
LOOK AT THIS YOU GUYS OMG
Tumblr media
ranged attacks and everything, now! I wonder if he’s always had this sort of capability and we’ve just never seen it before, or if this is another new development. probably the latter. those six weeks of training really leveled him up
wow even his fucking shoes are disintegrating now
so GiranTwice are getting the fuck out of Dodge, and Giran’s right arm just sort of ends in this big mess of bandages omg
Tumblr media
don’t worry Giran, Twice is gonna get Dabi’s plastic surgeon on the job. you will be fine
holy shit you guys would you look at this fucking shounen bullshit
Tumblr media
I’m starting to get an inkling that this will be the kind of fight that’s going to look amazing in anime form, but will basically just be a lot of flying rocks and smashing panels in manga form. and I’m prepared for that if that is indeed the case! I have not forgotten what genre this actually is, and that this is still a manga where the main character’s attacks all end in “SMASH!!!”, and every so often we get to a point where the characters who are at the center of the current conflict just have to punch it out. so I’m not going to complain
but I do hope that won’t be all there is to this, though. and ngl, I have higher expectations for BnHA’s fights than for any other manga’s fights, and I’m still expecting a few twists here
(ETA: oh lord I should just learn to keep my fucking mouth shut.)
oh shit
Tumblr media
poor Spinner. fucking Re-Destro gets a Quirk Reveal Box before he does
also it does seem to be a Hulk quirk then, huh. so it’s safe to say that once Gigantomachia shows up and they hash things out, there won’t really be a town here afterwards. like, this entire city is about to be straight up wiped off the map. that’s lowkey terrifying to think about
-- HEY WHAT THE
Tumblr media
(ETA: sob he looks so shocked. that’s right Tomura, it’s the hard knocks path to redemption for you too, buddy boy. probably when you go talk to Ujiko to get it patched up after the arc is over it’ll trigger some more character development somehow. just, my point is that you are an important character in a shounen manga, and so, unlike people in real life, you at least can be somewhat assured that your pain is probably happening for a reason.)
fuckING -- IS THAT REALLY -- DID THEY JUST
Tumblr media
DID THIS MOTHERFUCKING INKBLOT HULK MAN REALLY JUST PINCH MY BOY’S HANDS BETWEEN HIS GIANT THUMB AND INDEX FINGER AND JUST FUCKING PLUCK HIS FUCKING FINGERS OFF HOLY GODDAMN FUCK
DID HE DO THAT TO GIRAN. IS THAT WHAT HE FUCKING DID TO GIRAN I’M ABOUT TO FUCKING -- I CAN’T --
IS THIS FUCKING ATTACK ON TITAN, GODDAMN!? WHAT THE WHY
THERE REALLY IS A HIATUS SOB I CAN’T. I HOPE HE HAS A GOOD TIME ON HIS VACATION OR WHATEVER, THEN!! BE THAT WAY! I KNOW YOU’RE A HUMAN BEING AND ENTITLED TO TAKE SOME TIME OFF AND GET SOME GODDAMN SLEEP AND GO TO CONVENTIONS OR WHATEVER, BUT I’M ALSO ONLY HUMAN, AND WHEN YOU TAKE MY WEEKLY FIX AWAY WITH NO PRIOR NOTICE, I’M GOING TO GET CRANKY ABOUT IT. I CAN’T HELP IT OKAY
GOD DAMN IT
fuck
sob. okay sorry guys, I’m done being dramatic now. so let’s go back and finish up those last four panels that I haven’t actually read yet orz
Tumblr media
lol there already practically isn’t a town there anymore. Giganto you better hurry up and come finish it off. this asshole is out here playing the most vicious game of eenie meenie miney moe the world has ever seen with your boss’s hands and it’s very upsetting
who the fuck is this
Tumblr media
lmao what. someone’s actually trying to visit the city? turn your van around, pal. we are closed for business for real here
and then our last two panels are Slidin’ Go being all punchable, and then getting shaken up by a sudden earthquake omg
Tumblr media
I WONDER WHAT THAT COULD BE omg. :) :’D
well shit. so! 
a wild Gigantomachia approaches
Slidin’ Go is living on borrowed time presumably (good riddance)
Skeptic is trying to harass Twice again while he’s busy trying to save poor Toga’s life, like excuse you dude, no, please fuck off
Dabi is currently MIA and still fighting Dippin’ Dots while trying to keep his organs from getting any more roasted. maybe a flashback would help you there, Dabi. I don’t know how, but it couldn’t hurt, surely. I promise I have no ulterior motives in suggesting this
Spinner is trying to work out how to score a really satisfying victory to show us all that Quirks Aren’t Everything
Giran and his bandaged arm are running off to safety with Twice, which is the only thing that really matters in the end here
and Shigaraki Tomura has just had his own hand Luke Skywalkered in the manga’s latest and greatest instance of Cruelty Against Limbs. but at least this presumably means that he himself is about to get a hell of a lot hotter if Giran and Twice are anything to go by
so yeah. a lotta stuff going on. so really it’s the perfect time for a hiatus. lol
well, friends. I’ll see you all in two weeks I guess. hopefully someone will lend Tomura a hand. ba dum crash
