CHAPTER 3
August 7th, 1945 - 0500 Camp Toccoa, Georgia, United States War Correspondent Esther Armstrong
It was a pitiful way to fall asleep that night. My mind felt rattled awake with the raindrops of the metal roof that was placed on top of the building we now slept it, sounding as if gunshots were ringing out above our heads. I could hear Mercy tossing and turning before she finally was able to settle; I almost wish I could have willed myself to bed as quickly as her, but my mind was filled with thought and question of tomorrow. I am hopeful for the day, concerting my doubts of Lieutenant Sobel at the minute and rather holding myself to a more positive outlook. I am willing myself for a day of good.
- Esther Armstrong, on Day One of Training, from Stroke of Luck

Chapter 3 is here 👀

let's go to hell (together) (23050 words) by peachyM00
Chapters: 3/? Fandom: KinnPorsche: The Series (TV) Rating: Mature Warnings: Graphic Depictions Of Violence Relationships: Pete Phongsakorn Saengtham/Vegas Kornwit Theerapanyakun When he and his grandmother owe the minor family a debt, Pete finds himself pushed deeper into the mafia world than ever before. Working for Vegas sounds like Pete’s idea of Hell. But when feelings develop and lives are on the line, will the Devil finally admit he’s met his match?
Vegas’s office had a painting inside of it that Pete had grown to hate. All sorts of gothic artwork were dotted around the compound, but this painting was the worst of them all. It was so large it took up most of the wall behind his desk, so Vegas was highlighted by dark imagery every time he sat down.
He’d heard from the grapevine that the office used to belong to Vegas’s father, which Pete secretly hoped was true. It would make much more sense.
“I have a meeting I must attend with the head of the Sangthong family, and I want you to come with me,” Vegas told him as he sat before the ghastly painting. “We’ve been trying to get them to work with us for a while, and they’re close to signing the contract.”
“Okay,” Pete agrees readily, “when is the meeting?”
“It’s in two days; I’ll get Rhett to prep you with some information on them so you can follow along. I thought it time that you see the type of deals we do, give you a break from all that training.”
Pete was intrigued. He’d been to many of the meetings Yaai had with other gangs that wanted to work with her; it was mostly dull, but when he had gotten older and more involved, he saw how integral these kinds of things were for making connections with people. Especially when you needed them just as much as they needed you.
He wondered what the case would be for this meeting. Though it was hard to imagine the minor family needing connections like that. Usually, the little fish requires protection from the bigger one. But what did Pete know?
“Is there anything important I should know now? If they are offended if I wear red, for example.” This may have sounded like a stupid question to Vegas, but Pete once went to a meeting where the other gang refused to do deals if the colour yellow was seen in the room. They ended up cutting contact with them after that.
“My advice would be to have your wits about you,” Vegas smirked, standing up from his chair, “though I’m sure you will.”

The manga industry, especially JUMP, needs to hurry up and do away with weekly scheduling for mangaka. There needs to better regulations put into place for their health and safety because this is pitiful. Two weeks - monthly updates should’ve already been the standard for the manga industry at this point. These money grabbers will only continue to put the lives of these artists at stake for the sake of capitalism unless some serious changes are implemented.

Something that I've noticed ever since the Smiling Critters were introduced is that they can so easily be paired off into complementary duos, ones that are specifically designed to teach children fundamental lessons about life and self-care from two different angles. It's really interesting to me.
Like obviously you have Dogday and Catnap, with their sun/moon, dog/cat dichotomy, that stress how important it is to have fun and get things done during the day, but also that it's important to wind down, relax, and get a good night's sleep.

Bubba Bubbaphant and Craftycorn were introduced as a duo in the Smiling Critter show's intro, and their dichotomy is quite obvious. They are basically the right and left sides of the brain personified. Bubba is the left side of the brain, logical, analytical, focused on math and science. Craftycorn is the right side of the brain, creative and imaginative, focused on the arts and self-expression. They represent learning and academia in all its forms, the different ways people engage with and understand the world.

Hoppy Hopscotch and Kickin' Chicken form the sportsmanship duo. They are both portrayed as enjoying sports and the outdoors, but in different ways that highlight the different ways sports can be played and enjoyed and also what it entails to be successful at them. Hoppy Hopscotch may be loud and impatient, but she is also a team player, shown in her willingness to slow down her fast pace to make sure none of her friends are left behind. Kickin' Chicken, on the other hand, is laid-back, relaxed, and chill, the described "cool kid" of the group, but he's also described as having a ton of perseverance, more of a "slow and steady wins the race" type of person.

This leaves Bobby Bearhug and Picky Piggy as the last pair. Fittingly, these two are all about how to meet the fundamental needs of yourself and others. Bobby teaches children how to nourish themselves emotionally through showing and receiving care from others, while Picky teaches them how good food is important to nourish the body and soul. Depriving oneself of either of these things only makes oneself and therefore everyone around one miserable, because those fundamental needs are no longer being met.

Like fr, this is some pretty genius marketing right here. You have enough characters that every kid will have their favorite, but not so many that any would get lost in the shuffle, because the lessons each one of them would teach would be integral to the group as a whole. It really makes me that much sadder we saw basically nothing of the Smiling Critters during the game itself, because Mob Games struck gold with this concept, only to ultimately do nothing with it. :/
But I guess that's what fandom is for, eh?
