Your blog is making me want to replay Patho 2 again... I did play once on the intended difficulty, and then I replayed it afterwards on the easiest settings, doing everything and saving everyone and I'm ngl, that was some of the most fun I've ever had even though it wasn't quite in the spirit of the game haha
Tumblr media
The so-called spirit of the game is this senior citizen wirh an overgrown 2000s anime boy haircut who shakes his cane at you sassily when you choose to only swallow a handful of razors as opposed to the razor muckbang the game offers.
I finished the game on the hardest difficulty
Tumblr media
This was my first time playing the game ever. I straight up went to the intended difficulty, saved everyone, did everything, and never starved for a single day. I had 20+ Shmowders by the end. I was fully stocked on meat, I was fully stocked on homemade antibiotics and maxed the hospital shift each day.
All of that with only 3 Deaths
WHERE IS MY FUCKING CELEBRATION HUH? WHERE IS MY MEDAL? NO ONE THEW ME A PARTY, NO ONE INVITED BELLA HADID >:( MARK WASN'T IMPRESSED.
Fuck you Mark! ONE OF THOSE DEATHS WAS BULLSHIT YOU DUMB SLUT. YOU SPAWNED A GUY ON TOP OF ME WHILE I WAS PICKING UP HERBS, HOW THE FUCK DID HE ONE SHOT ME WITH FULL HEALTH HUH? YOU WHORE.
What I'm saying is. Look, we both finished the game on complete opposite extremes, yet we're both here. In a pathologic x reader blog on tumblr. We both had fun and shared a good understanding of the plot and characters. That's what matters. Everything else is just people patting themselves on the shoulder. You're the only one who will be impressed with the fact you beat the game flawlessly, and you're the only one who will be bothered by the fact you picked an easier difficulty
Because it's really not that different. To me, I have the kind of autism that makes games like pathologic smoother than water for me, I thrived on the ruthlessness of dark soul and did a no death run in darkest dungeon. But also. I absolutely suck at casual games, I can't play Stardew Valley unless I'm fully cheating, I can't for the life of me beat a single platforming game because I have a slow reaction speed.
Play Pathologic however you want! Ice-pick Joe isn't gonna pop from under your bed at 3am to beat you up with hammers. This is coming from the most tryhard difficulty elitism person there is in games.
Buttttt. I do recommend giving Pathologic classic HD a try. I promise anyone who beat Pathologic 2 on ANY difficultly will cuck tf out of the first game. There is no thirst! The vendors have unlimited money, and you can sell all of your trash to them! THE ECONOMY IS THRIVING I BOUGHT FOOD ON THE DAYS THE PRICES WERE SKYROCKETING BC I COULD AFFORD IT. I would've never financially recovered from buying food in P2 on any day that's not the first one. In P1, I rarely slept because I was deepthroating lemons and snorting coffee beans day and night since I could easily afford the health/hunger penalty.
Meanwhile, in P2, I'd save coffee beans to sell to get enough money to save up for army clothes.
The combat is so forgiving, the houses with good loot aren't the infected ones like in P2 but the burned ones! The AI in that game is so stupid you can trick plague clouds into disappearing if you stand still! You can glitch and jump over fences to take shortcuts through the town! YOU CAN SCAM THAT CUNT ANDREY STAMATIN FOR ENDLESS SHOTGUNS.
Lastly don't forget that 90% of the Pathologic fandom haven't even played any of the games at all. 70% probably never watched a single playthrough either and just video essays instead.
In the steam version of Pathologic 2, Only 10% of players who bought the game have ever reached the end.
Tumblr media
10% !!! That's us there! Me and You! It doesn't matter how what matters is that we both did it while 90% of people gave up.
And the situation in the classic game is even more dire tbh-
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Only 6% ever opened the game and made it through the first day. Only 3% ever made it to the last day.
So, really good on you for finishing the game! Good on me for finishing the game! WE DID IT! YAY! Someone really should give Bella Hadid a call.
Also, please do yourself a favour and ignore whatever the video essayist says about the difficulty of the games. They're good storytellers for building an interesting narrative to watch, but they're not good at videogames assessment. Each of their reasons is very personalised by their own experience and doesn't necessarily mean other people will struggle with the same issues. Don't listen to anyone who tells you picking an easy difficulty ruins the game either, Pathologic doesn't relay on its brutal gameplay to shine, it can more stand on its own as a narrative story walking game. If anything, it would probably shine better on easier difficulties when you have time to dig for context clues and plot without starvation breathing down your neck. I missed some flavour text quests because I was too stressed about balancing different objectives to do them or pay attention when something important was said.

Ik it's out of blue, but I'm new to this football world(became a fan this fifa season only) so it's obvious I'm not that well informed about stuff and i really find it embarrassing to ask ppl abt it, but i really wanna know what is a transfer window and how does it work?! Please help meee😭😭😭
I hope i didn't disturb you TT
Ahhh thats no worries, its good to ask question and learn more. Im by no means an expert but this is my understanding:
Theres 2 transfer periods a season where teams can buy/sell players. One in Jan and the other is usually for around 3 months in the summer between seasons. Clubs have to abide by fifas rule of financial fair play which prevents them from spending more than they earn, this is to prevent clubs getting into financial difficultly. If a player is out of contract and doesnt agree to a new deal they can go on a free transfer but for the most part a player is usually still within contract and a fee is agreed between the clubs.
I think thats the general gist?

This industry never wanted me nor are they trying to welcome me
I really fucking hate the equine industry. I know that I've always been an outsider. I recognise that I am beyond privileged to be in the position I'm in, and the opportunities that I've had I'm not a straight, white women, who comes from generations of wealth... There's nothing that I can do about that. I have met a handful of professional POC in this industry, I don't think that I want to be one anymore
What bothers me the most is the off-handed comments I get from others.
"Oh, I'm surprised that you know anything about horses."
"Do you ride? That's a shocker"
"People like you usually don't know how to ride"
"You're one of those hunter/jumper fairies/pansies"
Among other racially and sexually-motivated remarks.
One thing that I hear a lot is "nobody really cares if you're black/white/gay/trans/etc; as long as you have the money, that's what matters most."
Yes, in the end, access to financial resources is what will get you further ahead. HOWEVER, POC and members of the queer community often have more difficultly getting access to financial resources than thier white, hetrosexual peers.
A lot of queer athletes have a hard time while participating in sports, whether that be coming out to coaches and teammates, locker room dynamics, comments from spectators, internalised homophobia and transphobia. Many queer people stopped participating in the sports that they loved for many of the previously mentioned reasons.
POC, on average tend to be less financially well-off than their white counterparts. This prevents them from entering the sport as a whole. You don't get the opportunities that many get when they've invested literal MILLIONS into their riding careers from before the time they could walk I have not heard of an equestrian coming from a non-equestrian family from poverty working their way up into the upper levels, they are out-priced from the beginning.
I feel so out of place in this industry on so many levels. I don't know if I still want to go pro and live out the dreams I had watching Team Canada in Beijing 2008.

#TransgenderFirst
During my freshman year at university I was misgendered on the daily by my acting instructor. One day some of my peers in the class corrected this instructor, she reacted by getting upset and saying my peers were bullying her for correcting her on my pronouns (I went by they/them at that time, I must add classes were also on zoom and my pronouns were in my zoom name).
Although my experience was not as awful as others, incidents like the one mentioned above can be extremely debilitating to go through as a transgender person. When experiencing something like this in a higher education setting, it can be discouraging to want to continue existing in a space knowing your identity isn't respected. This is one of the many reasons higher education can be seen as challenging for transgender students to approach. Not to mention many trans people have difficultly even handling the mere cost of school due to lack of financial support from their parents or relatives.

Do you know, the worst thing about being an adult as a childhood abuse survivor is, not only is it hard to get to the point that you can reach stability, maintaining it is triple times hard as it is for someone who has a loving family AND you have to deal with the grief you’ll never have one yourself. There’s a chance you can create one, but again, triple times hard to be financially stable and not have meltdowns- which makes having a child pretty hard. The grief is hard enough by itself, but the difficultly of achieving normality yet deeply craving peace and your own home…it’s tough.

Richard Ramirez - The Night Stalker: Family Background
Serial Killer Masterlist 
Childhood Part 1 
Word Count: 3505
Richard Ramirez, the man who left at least thirteen dead, paralysing the city of Los Angeles throughout the summer of 1985. His name alone makes people prickle with fear as they remember the acts of horror he committed on children and adults alike. Yet he still fascinates people; the Night Stalker Case was what got me interested in true crime and how the human brain can be so drastically changed by mental and physical events. I have spent countless hours reading up on his crimes, trial, personality, drifter lifestyle and the tragic childhood that played a huge role in creating the monster we all know and fear. I collect this information I have read many articles on Richard Ramirez and watched videos discussing his life. My main source of information was ‘The Life and Crimes of Richard Ramirez The Night Stalker’ by Philip Carlo, I highly recommend. Georgia Marie’s video also gave a slightly summarised version of Ramirez’s life so watch that here if you are interested.
 Compared to the other detailed multiple part series I am doing for the Serial Killers, this one is going to be exceptionally long simply because I have copious amounts of information about Richard. The other Serial Killers I cover will be very detailed as well don’t worry I just simply have so much I want to share about him. We will start with the background of his family, the next part will cover his childhood however I cannot confirm when it will be out but I am writing it from now. Anyway, lets get into the background of the Ramirez family. 
With three older brothers and an older sister, Richard Ramirez - Richie as the family fondly remembers him - was the youngest of five to Julian Tapia Ramirez and Mercedes Ramirez. 
Julian Ramirez was born in the rough city of Camargo in Mexico, February 16th 1927. He was the second oldest of eight children who were raised on a poor farm. He was large, with the power to match it, high well-defined cheekbones and jet-black hair making him a considerably attractive man. His features were often characteristics of the Ramirez men. 
Jose Ramirez, his father, was a stern man who rarely showed any signs of joy. Jose had inherited his dark eyes and tight, firm lips from his father, Inacia, but also had inherited his Father’s horrible temper. Julian’s mother, Roberta, had died when he was only 12 leaving a lot of the responsibility to raise the large family on him since he was the oldest boy. 
Corporal punishment was something Jose and Inacia firmly believed in, if any of the eight children did not keep up with expectations they were quick to receive a severe beating. It was a normal occurrence for fathers to beat their children in Mexico - to teach them respect and discipline - however the beatings from Julian’s father and grandfather often blurred the line between discipline and abuse. Inacia would beat Julian the most, tying him to a tree and whipping him with a rope causing Julian to became very withdrawn. He wouldn’t cry when he was beaten and would just wait until the older men’s anger was vented, he was beaten the most since he was the oldest.
At 14 Julian stood up for himself. He tore the belt from his father’s hands and said sternly, “You are not beating me anymore.” In Camargo a child could be executed for disobeying their father but nothing was done and from then on Julian was never beaten again. He never should have been beaten anyway, he was a good child and always did what he could to benefit his family. Julian never swore, smoked and rarely drank. He went to church every Sunday with his family and firmly believed in Jesus and the powers of Satan. He never got past the first grade in school as he was needed to work on the farm 24/7.
The city itself was small with no available electricity, railroad or even a phone so everyone knew of each other. Julian met his future wife, Mercedes, when they were 14. 
Mercedes Muñoz was part of another big family, one of seven children - four boys, three girls and was born in Rocky Ford, Colorado. They were another poor family but made the most of what they could. When America joined World War II Guadalupe, Mercedes mother, decided it would be best to leave the US for Camargo. She believed her sons should not be drafted for the war because their blood should not be spilt because of the fights between politicians. It was well known the government were corrupt (some to this day still are).  From the moment she arrived in Camargo she became friends with Julian’s sisters and that was how they were introduced. Mercedes was pretty, she was tall and thin, large doe-eyes, a broad forehead and her hands and fingers were long and finely tapered, ‘beautiful enough to have modelled’ - The Life and Crime of Richard Ramirez The NightStalker - Philip Carlo. 
Julian and Mercedes didn’t truly start to date until 19 when they would go for walks around Camargo’s only park and watch movies at Camargo’s only cinema.
Once the war was over 1946, Nacho - Mercedes’ brother - had moved to the town of Juarez to work in a post office, Juarez was the border town beside El Paso, Texas. There was little work in Camargo due to its size so to get work you would have to move. Luckily the Muñoz children were American citizens since they were born in the United States and they could legally travel to El Paso for work so Guadalupe made the decision to move which meant Mercedes herself would have to go too. Her relationship with Julian would have to be put behind her for the time being. 
After moving to Juarez in the August of 1947, any body old enough to get a job was put to work. Juarez was a very violent place and anything could be bought for not much money at all: drugs, stolen American goods, prostitutes, even sex with minors. These horrific things are common in many border towns. Mercedes found the place disgusting and horrifying, she was horrified and scared of the crimes committed all around her. 
But something she looked forward to was writing to Julian, although he struggled with writing he got his sister to teach him how. The letters may have been short but they were full of love; telling her how much he missed her and how lonely it had become without her. She shared the same sentiment. 
Not long after Mercedes left Julian got drafted, he was taught to shoot and use all kind of weapons. He was never deployed because he contracted scarlet fever. He was discharged and sent back to Camarge - thin and sick his sister had to help him get back to good health. He was determined to get to Mercedes in Juarez and wrote to her, asking to marry her. She was full of joy and said yes but her mother did not want the marriage to take place, going as far to forbade it. As much as Julian was hardworking she judged him on the fact that he had no education nor skills, she felt her Mercedes deserved far better. She wasn’t the only one to dislike this marriage, the Ramirez’s thought Mercedes’ family acted as though they were more important then everyone else. 
Yet the couple were determined, both rarely defied their own families however the love they shared for one another was too strong and with the little possessions he had, Julian arrived in Juarez on the 3rd of August 1948 and they married on the 9th six days later in the Juarez City Hall in front of a few friends. They had no honeymoon due to lack of money. They were only 19. 
They agreed that they would make sure their own children would have everything that they didn’t as children, a happy life with financial security and in Julian’s case, no beatings. 
Mercedes continued her work as a housekeeper in El Paso, they could live in the States since she had been born there. She wanted to move there because the crime in Juarez was too much for her. Julian was content in Mexico but he knew how much his wife disliked the city so he applied for US citizenship. They had both heard of the ‘American Dream’ and she wanted her children to be born in the US so they could live out this dream. Finally Julian reluctantly accepted and they moved into a small one bedroom, one bathroom apartment in El Paso in Fourth and Canal. 
Also during this time Guadalupe began to warm to Julian, she realised how hardworking he was and how much he loved her daughter. They started going for meals at Guadalupe - they didn’t live far from her in Juarez.
Within months Mercedes was pregnant with their first son, Ruben. At the time - unknown to the people of El Paso - the U.S government had been testing nuclear weapons in the nearby city of Los Alamos, New Mexico. It wasn’t known about the effects of Nuclear fallout and the wind more often then not carried the fallout over Juarez and El Paso, polluting the water, milk and Cattle. Between 1950 and 1954 the testing was most frequent, correlating with the high rate of birth defects in babies, causing physical issues and mental issues alike. It became known what was causing this but people were hesitant to speak out about it to the government - after all the Nuclear bomb had won them the war. 
Ruben was born without much difficultly however he was born with large lumps up his back, neck and head and he was incredibly sick. At the time the doctor didn’t understand but he thought the bomb tests definitely had something to do with it. Ruben got very ill and it was believed he wouldn’t make it yet after a few weeks the lumps began to disappear and got better. The family owed this to a divine intervention. Ruben was allowed to go home and Julian would often take him for long walks down the roads of El Paso, telling him stories and smiling joyously constantly. 
Just two months later, Mercedes was pregnant again. She wanted a girl but most of all she wanted a healthy baby and for the atomic bomb tests to stop, for all the evil to go away from her little family. This pregnancy was also easy, Joseph was born (named after Mercedes’ favourite brother). He was healthy, both Julian and Mercedes’ thanked God. Two sons in a row was a good omen according to Guadalupe and Julian considered himself a very lucky man. 
At six months old Joseph started to cry much more frequently. As though he was in serious pain. His parents tried everything to calm the baby but nothing would work. He was taken to the El Paso clinic, neither could they find the problem so they sent him back home. The crying only became more extreme as each day passed. The second time he was taken to a clinic he was nearly 1 year old. After an examination the doctor announced that poor Joseph’s bones were not growing correctly and they never would. He didn’t quite understand why and sent them to a specialist who told them that Joseph had a disease called Collier which caused the bones to curve as they grew. This was also a direct result of the nuclear testing nearby - still nobody wanted to shame to war winning bomb though. Dr. Perry Rogers told the Ramirezes that he would cut away at the curved part of the bone and would construct a metal heal that would allow Joseph to somewhat walk right. But he warned them that he would require many more operations because the bones would continue to grow incorrectly. There was no proper cure. Any money they could spare was handed over to Dr. Rogers to pay for the operations, they never asked any other families for help so they simply worked longer and harder. Joseph had his first surgery at 17 months old and it helped briefly but he began crying in pain again not long after. The family often went to the Sacred Heart Church on Oregon street to pray for Joseph’s pain and disease to go away. 
A while later Julian became a construction worker in El Paso even though he didn’t have the proper papers. He needed the money though, this job payed far better then the factory job he previously worked in. 
In the year of 1952 immigration border guards payed Julian a visit at the construction site to ask for his papers. He told them he didn’t have them but that his wife was an American citizen so he could stay but they told him that he needed papers and was to be deported immediately. After some persuasion he was allowed to go and tell his wife what was going to happen however once at the apartment the guards said that whole family was going to be deported. Their landlord came to their defence,  he agreed that they were American citizens and that they should stay. No protests worked, at 3pm the little family and all their belongings were dumped on a corner on the Mexican side of the Sante Fe bridge. 
Julain told Mercedes to take herself and the children to her mother’s house a mile away, he would stay and fight off any thieves who attempted to take their belongings. On a good weekend in Juarez there was twenty murders. Mercedes began the short but treacherous walk to her mother’s, holding Ruben by the hand and a crying Joseph in her arms. 
She reached Guadalupe’s without an incident and her two brothers - Joseph and Manuel - took a neighbours truck to move the family’s possessions to the house. It took two trips. 
Once settled, Julian went out looking for work. He met a friend who was working as a policeman. His friend took him to the Commandante of the Juarez police. Julian said he didn’t know much about being a policeman but the Commandante didn’t mind and thought he looked right to be a policeman. Since he was experienced with guns due to his time in the military, he was put in charge of teaching the Juarez police to maintain and shoot firearms properly. But Mercedes wasn’t overly happily. Mexico was like South America, police officers were often killed if they got in the way.

Mercedes had their third son Robert, he presented no problems. 
Finally Julian’s American Citizenship papers were approved and with the good of his sons in mind he quit his job and the family moved back to El Paso in early 1954. They got a small apartment in the second ward at Seventh and Canal. Julian got a job at the Santa Fe railroad, laying track.  It was hard work and he was often out of town for days but the wages were good. He knew he had made the right decision for his wife and children.

Mercedes got a job at a famous boot-maker in Texas called Tony Lama. Her wages were also much better and she had managed to find a Mexican women who could care for her sons while she was out working, she wanted someone good to look after them since she was nervous to leave them for too long. 
She would mix pigments and chemicals for the boots colours to paint the boots and treat them with fixatives so the colour would last. Similar to the Nuclear tests, these chemicals were often toxic and required ventilation when being used but the people working with them were unaware at the time. She spent seven hours a day, five days a week exposed to these toxic chemicals and quickly developed dizzy spells meaning she would have to sit down for periods of time to recover. 
Six months after being employed she was pregnant again, Julian was overjoyed as this was the fourth pregnancy in fours year and he felt like the luckiest man alive.
Finally one of Mercedes’ dreams became true. She had a healthy little girl who she named Ruth, a little girl to help her out in a house full of boys. Julian was happy as well, he knew Ruth would always have three older brothers to keep her out of harms way.
Every weekend Julian would dress up and go and visit his police friends in Juarez, occasionally bringing along his sons and talk to them in Spanish. He wanted them to learn English and do well in American but he also did not want them to forget about their heritage. His sister moved to El Paso the same year, bring her son Miguel who was the same age as Ruben, the two became close friends the moment they met. 
Mercedes’ sister had also moved to El Paso and got employed at Tony Lama, she developed the same dizzy spells and they both began to feel unwell on weekends. After a discussion they began to question whether maybe they were addicted to the chemicals they worked with and were experiencing some form of withdrawal yet they didn’t seek any medical attention. 
When Ruben started school he was put into a class designed to help teach English. Before long he could say sentences in English and Julian encourage him to speak English with his friends and grandmother Guadalupe. Joseph started school not long after and was wearing the special shoes he had been given in Juarez and they needed to be adjusted often as he grew but he never complained. He always walked with his brother to school but had to break often as the shoes weighed quite a lot. His parents were worried about how the other kids would treat him but his brothers were always there to defend him. 
Robert started school and he learned English as well. The first time Julian heard his sons speaking English to each other he was happy but he couldn’t help feeling a little down as he struggled to learn the language and couldn’t speak with them. He never was required to learn English because most of the men he worked with spoke Spanish anyway. 
At school Joseph had started being taunted about his disadvantages, he took the insults to heart and became very shy and fearful. Ruben however, had inherited the fierce Ramirez temperament and would chase off the children who teased Joseph. Their father did not often lose his temper, he was a very  easygoing and friendly man but when he did he would start beating any object near him and throwing things. Another trait of the Ramirez family was that they had very large feet and hands, a punch from one of the Ramirez men would cause a lot of damage.  
Mercedes - much to her dismay - realised that all of her children had the explosively violent temper of the Ramirezes. Ruth herself would break and throw things if her anger got the better of her. ‘”I’d just black out when I got mad,” she’d say years later. “I couldn’t control the anger. There would just, like, be an explosion inside of me, and I’d go off.” Her older brothers gave her a wide berth when she “went of”.’ - The Life and Crimes of Richard Ramirez The NightStalker - Philip Carlo.
Mercedes’ fifth and final pregnancy was the most painful and difficult. She even had to go to a specialist to help with the discomfort who told her the chemicals she had been breathing in at her job was going to cause a miscarriage so she needed a range of injections to keep the baby. She finally quit her job during her fifth month of pregnancy. This final pregnancy surprised Julian as it had been four years since the birth of their daughter. Guadalupe recalled praying a lot for her daughter and the unborn baby during the pregnancy, she could see this child was sapping the life-force from her daughter. 
At 2:07am on February 29th 1960, Ricardo Leyva Muñoz Ramírez was born. His father and all his siblings arrived at the hospital to see the new baby. Ruth was ecstatic to have a baby brother and from the first day he came home she was all over him. 
He was her little precious, dark-eyed, dark-haired doll come to life. Ruben, Joseph and Robert didn’t pay one-tenth the attention to Richie that Ruth did. - The Life and Crimes of Richard Ramirez The NightStalker - Philip Carlo.  
If you think I have any facts wrong be sure to message me and I’ll correct what I can. The next part I am covering will be his childhood.

Venting
I don’t really go onto Tumblr that much, but I really need to vent right now and the ability to be anonymous really helps. From school, to cheer, to family issues, to “friends,” I just can’t deal with keeping it all bottled up anymore.  School -  TW: depression and severe anxiety For a couple years now, I’ve struggled with anxiety and depression. I think that most of it started in sixth grade when grades truly started to matter. I’m a freshman now, and my school is K-12 that I’ve gone to since kindergarten, so even a few things from fifth grade will effect which classes you get into in high school. I was also taking medicine for ADHD that started to change my personality. My anxiety got so bad that if I received even a B on a quiz or test that I would ask to go to the restroom and have an anxiety attack in the bathroom, then come back to class within five minutes as though nothing happened. I’ve gotten better about hiding my anxiety attacks in a public setting and now only have school-related attacks in the privacy of my room. I’m only fifteen and most nights I have somewhere between five to eight hours of homework with little to no procrastination and not including studying. I’m aware that it gets harder in high school, but I find this ridiculous. Usually, it’s not even the difficultly of the homework, it’s the amount. I’ve had to spend somewhere around eight hours in one night on a single class just because of how much the teacher assigned us in one night. My family isn’t poor by any means, but there’s no way that my parents could send me to a good collage without it affecting them negatively/financially, so I try to keep my grades up really high and do several school clubs in hopes to get some scholarships. It just gets so stressful, especially when I have some activity after school that lasts hours. Every single night, I have to be up past midnight just to get my work done, and the usual time for me to fall asleep is somewhere around 2:00am and getting up at 6:15am. Due to this, I’ve developed migraines and I think something similar to insomnia, but not that exactly? It does not help that one teacher has us learn strictly from a textbook without teaching us himself, and another teacher (foreign language) does not understand english well or the language she is teaching us (french). Our small class of around fifteen people has to constantly correct her on a language that she is supposed to be teaching us and often teaches us things that outright contradict each other. She says that she knows something, then when we ask her “what is it? or “what does it mean?” she hasn’t the slightest idea. One last thing she does is teach us things that seniors or juniors who are close to being fluent in french are supposed to be learning vs us who are nowhere near fluent.  Cheer -  TW: anxiety attack and completely non-graphic injury I’ve been doing a non-school competitive cheer team since the beginning of seventh grade. Tumbling is not required, but encouraged (I only have front roll, back roll, cartwheel, handstand, and roundoff). When the team first started, our coach had only one other team, who was more advanced. They were a senior level team while we were a prep team. We began with eight girls who all took it seriously. Now only three original team members remain, with over twenty other girls who DO NOT take it seriously at all. I am the oldest one on the team and everybody expects me to know every single count for every detail. Apparently they forego the facts that 1. I’m fine helping if you forget a count or two, but I can’t tell you the entire routine. 2. they should have some idea of what the counts to our routine are. 3. no two people have the same counts for the entire routine, we all do different things at different times. Me and one of the other og members (who I am closest to on the team) have heard our coach on two separate occasions saying that our coach is trying to find some way to stop coaching us. He now has five teams total. We were promised that this season we would be learning new stunts and that the difficulty would be much harder. I’m not trying to brag, but I have not learned a single new thing this entire season, and this routine is not hard at all compared to our last three. He has two high school girls that usually “coach” us and they continuously screamed in my face about something I was “doing wrong” (when our coach actually came out, he corrected everybody in the stunt but me and the other girl these two assistants were screaming at, all of a sudden the stunt worked after he fixed them (hmm I wonder why, oh yeah they were yelling at the wrong people!)) until I was having an anxiety attack. They still did not stop.  Somewhat related, my coach is mad that I stopped going to privates with him. The last private that I did with him, he made me do something new that I was not comfortable with at all without a spot. I injured my neck, and being completely honest think I was somewhere close to breaking it. I couldn’t move my neck without being in true genuine pain for about a week and was in physical therapy for several months after.  Family Issues -  TW: anxiety, depression, emotional abuse, possible self harm (not sure if it is), body shaming, slight threatening, and self-induced vomiting My parents have also caused a bunch of my anxiety and depression. I used to get punished if I got a B, no matter the class or what the grade was for (it could’ve been for homework and I’d still get in trouble). They have told me several things that I’m 100% sure shoud be classified as emotional abuse. Some include, “If you keep looking like this, you’re going to be fat before you’re even fifteen,” “You look like a pregnant lady right now,” “You better run before I give you something to cry about,” “I should be hitting you until you can’t see anymore,” “You ever do anything right,” and “Why can’t you be more like (insert sibling’s name or the name of a girl in my grade)?” They make fun of me for caring about my grades and for having anxiety attacks. They have never actually hit me, with the exception of spanking me, but that stopped when I was around ten. A few weeks ago, I realized that I’m scared of them. Not in the sense that I think they’ll attack me any moment though. I don’t know how to describe it. I’ve started digging my nails into my arms when I’m stressed or when they’re yelling at me. I pick at my lips knowing that it will hurt and that they could bleed. I’m not sure if that counts as self harm or not (could somebody let me know their views on it)? Recently, I’ve started self-induced vomiting. I don’t stick my fingers down my throat, but I do make myself gag until I throw something up. They make fun of me for some ideas I have of what I want to do in the future. My brother is also the favorite child. For sure. He is five years older, so an age difference, but never in my entire life can I remember him being punished when he got horrible grades, screamed, played his tv at max volume (100/100), drunk, and smoked when he was underage. He intentionally played the flying dutchman’s laugh from Spongebob at 100 volume in the middle of the night to scare me when I was little. I was always forced to go to his football games, baseball games, tennis matches, choir performances, etc. while never in my entire life has he come to a soccer game, tennis match, cheer competition, anything, even when I begged him and my parents to make him come. We never eat family meals together. I sit at our kitchen counter (not even the table, we aren’t allowed to sit at the table), my brother ate in his room when he still lived with us, and my parents eat in our living room. I didn’t even know that eating meals together was a normal thing to do until I went to a friends house when I was in first grade (I was seven).  “Friends” -  TW: emotional manipulation, implied abandonment, stealing, being purposely left out of things I’m not sure how to explain this well without it being bratty or petty. It mainly comes from this one person. We were best friends since kindergarten until 6th grade. That’s when I realized how bad this relationship was. She was constantly taking about other’s behind their backs, she called me mentally insane for taking medicine for ADHD, claimed ADHD was not a real thing (when another friend who has ADHD asked for proof, she sent some article talking about cars?), and would tell people to move away from me. Some more extreme things she has done is scarred me (literally she dug her nails into my skin years ago and scared me in two places on my hand) when I asked if I could finish my conversation with someone else first when she tried to start a conversation with me, accused me of stealing her epipens (I didn’t) then stole and lost my brand new apple watch in retaliation that I spent hours looking for after (she left the epipens in her mom’s car), calls me a bully when I wouldn’t let her grab a book I was reading from out of my hands, and was laughing when I was on the ground crying, in genuine pain, and couldn’t move. She’s done much more than this, but those are the main few things. I’ve had similar problems with others and now only consider myself to have two true friends. The rest seem to be mean to me a majority of the time. Then there are some people who I’m on the fence with. Everything is just so crazy now. Well I’ve spent almost an hour typing this up. If anybody read this the entire way through, I want to thank you for listening to this probably pointless rant. Could anybody offer any advice? I don’t know what to do anymore and all the pressure that is building up is too much.

Opportunities and development trends of cryptocurrency
Tumblr media
When it comes to cryptocurrency, the first thing we think of is Bitcoin. According to relevant data analysis, Bitcoin-based cryptocurrencies are becoming popular all over the world. The three most popular types of financial transactions are: stocks, options, and cryptocurrencies. . Binance's trading volume has surpassed China's Shanghai and Shenzhen stock markets. Why is cryptocurrency suddenly occupying such an important share of the financial market?
Judging from the history of stock development, the early stage was also a product of the emerging world. Hundreds of years later, it used the Internet to make it flourish. Everyone, stock-based financial derivatives have also experienced a spurt of development, which has promoted the development of human society.
Every era is accompanied by this dividend. From real estate to the Internet, how many people have used these opportunities to succeed, and cryptocurrency has spawned many new opportunities, and we should also be able to see some opportunities and developments from them. With the development of current emerging technologies, such as the vigorous development of artificial intelligence, many jobs have been replaced by robots. If our thinking is still conservative, it is likely to be eliminated in the future development process.
Tumblr media
In the early years of peace, entrepreneurs began to use market advantages to obtain a large amount of capital, widening the gap between rich and poor, and gradually forming a cycle, making future financial rules beneficial to them. Therefore, in the vicious circle, many people in the middle and lower classes start to live more and more difficultly, and it is more and more difficult for people at the bottom to get promoted. There are ways to change. In order to avoid head-on conflict with the old capital group and competition in traditional industries, then you must start again, and the cryptocurrency market is a good choice, it will make it easier for the people at the bottom to succeed.
The birth of cryptocurrency can be said to be a revolution in the old financial world. In just ten years, it has risen to such a high financial status, and stocks have reached this point in the 4th century, so the future of cryptocurrency can be expected. It will become a financial force that cannot be ignored in the future. As for the height of the price, it will eventually exceed your cognitive height!

Phoenix by Fallout Boy
home stretch kiddies.
warnings for discussion of abuse. Emile briefly discusses confronting an active shooter, but no details are used. Payton used homophobic and transphobic views. 
 Chapter Fifteen: Pompeii by Bastille
               “Your Honor.” Payton’s Lawyer stated. “Our case will not only prove that my client is a fit parent and that the plaintiffs are unfit to parent.”
               “Present your evidence.” His Honor waved his hand.
               “I would like to call to the stand Mrs. Lefant, Virgil’s English teacher, to the stand.”
               A pleasant looking lady made her way up. As she swore to tell only the truth Patton felt Virgil’s grip on his hand tighten.
               Patton silently rubbed his back. He didn’t have any words of comfort to offer. In fact, he was panicking. They didn’t have any witnesses to call up. Now it really was their word against his.
               “Mrs. Lefant,” Payton’s lawyer began. “How would you describe Mr. Foster’s relationship with his son?”
               “Well, from what I saw he absolutely doted on the boy.” She answered. “Payton was always at parent/teacher meetings, supervised class trips and brought Virgil to all his extracurriculars.”
               “Did Virgil ever express any problems with his home life?”
               “No, in fact we all asked him if anything was the matter when his grades started dropping, and he insisted that everything was fine.”
               “If I may, Your Honor,” Janus rose, much like a snake when it’s being charmed. “I would like to inquire if Mrs. Lefant noticed any bruises on Virgil or any signs of anxiety.”
               “You may.” The judge nodded.
               “Mrs. Lefant?” Janus looked straight at her.
               “Well, he was usually nervous later in the day and was very afraid whenever he had to present something to the class. And we expected that anxiety was the reason he went from A’s to F’s.”
               “That’s quite a plummet.” Janus nodded. “What did his father have to say about that?”
               “Payton insisted that everything was fine at home, he was sure that Virgil just wasn’t applying himself like he used to.” She made a face. “Mr. Foster was adamant that mental illnesses didn’t exist, and that they need to be ignored rather than treated.”
               “Did Virgil ever have any anxiety or panic attacks?” Janus glided forward.
               “Yes, he had a panic attack in the middle of a debate once.”
               “And as a mandatory reporter, if you had thought that Mr. Foster’s attitude was problematic you would have reported it.” Payton’s lawyer added quickly.
               “I did.” She replied. “But nothing came of it. So, I just assumed that I had overreacted.”
               “Meaning that Child Protective Services had deemed Mr. Foster a fit parent after all.” Payton’s lawyer finished off.    
               “I suppose.” She nodded.
               “No further questions, Mrs. Lefant.” Payton’s lawyer nodded.
               “Mr. Pent, do you have further questions?” The judge asked.
               “No, Your Honor.”
               “Then.” Payton’s lawyer added. “We shall call our next witness.”
               “Another one.” Virgil whispered shakily. “I’m screwed.”
               “It’s ok, baby. It’s gonna be ok.” Patton shushed.
               Payton brought up several more of Virgil’s former teachers. They all stated that Payton doted on Virgil and that they had no idea that any abuse was going on. Janus asked each of them if they noticed any bruising on Virgil or had any indication that he was anxious. They all agreed that they thought he had anxiety and that Payton insisted that he did not.
               The pattern was broken when Virgil’s old wrestling coach came to the stand.
               “Mr. Seller.” Jan cross examined. “Virgil mentioned that he quit wrestling, do you have any idea why?”
               “Virgil was being teased by the other boys.” Mr. Seller replied. “I tried my best to put a stop to it, but in the end he just quit.”
               “Why were they teasing him? Was he not good at the sport?”
               “No, he was fantastic, and he really seemed to enjoy it. The teasing started after his father came to pick him up one day.”
               “Oh, so they teased him because his dad always came to get him. And that made him a kind of daddy’s boy in their opinion?”
               “No, actually that was the first time Payton had picked him up from practice. Before that, Virgil had always gone home on the late bus.”
               “So, why would they tease him?” Janus bobbed like a dancing cobra.
               “Payton let it slip that Virgil had a bedwetting problem. And of course, we all know how kids are.”
               “Odd that he would bring up something so personal the first time he ever came to a practice.” Janus tapped his fingers together.
               “I found it a bit weird as well. Virgil clearly wasn’t comfortable with him bringing it up. But Payton came off as a bit naive at times, so we all assumed that he didn’t mean any harm.”
               “Did you find it odd that Virgil was wetting the bed at that age? Isn’t that a serious symptom of emotional distress?”
               “Of course. But when I asked him if everything was alright at home, he was very adamant that everything was fine. And he refused to talk about the bedwetting altogether.”
               “Did you find that odd?”
               “Yes, but I assumed that he was just embarrassed.”
               “So, just to make sure I have this all down.” Jan smiled. “Virgil was on the wrestling team, Payton was not involved in that, and the only time Payton shows up he lets out some very embarrassing information. Am I correct?”
               “Yes.”
               “Did Payton do anything to counter this bullying that happened?”
               “No.” Mr. Seller looked surprised. “Not that I know of.”
               “Interesting.” Janus slid back to their table. “No further questions.”
               “What else do you have for your case?” The judge looked to Payton and his lawyer.
               “We have evidence that will cast doubt on the credibility of both Mr. Foster and Mr. Berry as well as Dr. Picani and their lawyer.”
               “Ok.” Janus sighed, rising to his feet. “Your Honor, if I may hazard a guess, they are going to bring to light an incident in which my then boyfriend got himself high on mushrooms while we were camping with some friends. I myself remained sober, and had my face bashed in for my troubles.”
               “Are you?” His Honor looked at them.
               “Yes, Your Honor.” Payton’s lawyer nodded. “But I was also going to bring to light that after graduating law school, Mr. Janus Pent, changed his name.”
               “Your Honor.” Ethen added. “I used to be a woman. I changed the spelling of my name from j-a-n-i-c-e to J-a-n-u-s. The earlier spelling didn’t really suit me anymore.”
               Patton felt himself blush and looked around at everyone else. They looked uncomfortable too.
               “In that case, Janice couldn’t commit to a gender, doesn’t that raise questions about “his” credibility?” Payton added.
               “No.” Judge Douglass said. “What else do you have to say?”
               “As stated earlier, Mr. Berry is on the Autistic spectrum.” Payton’s lawyer tried to save face.
               “And this makes him an unfit parent why?” He looked confused.
               “People on the spectrum have difficultly taking care of themselves, you couldn’t in good conscience let one have a child.”
               “Mr. Berry.” The judge looked at Logan. “Stand up please.”
               Logan rose.
               “What do you do for work?” Judge Douglassr asked.
               “I teach a high school statistics class, Your Honor.” Logan said stoically.
               “Has being Autistic ever hindered you in any way?”
               “I don’t understand metaphors or sarcasm. Aside from that I am fully able to take care of myself. I worked my way through college and made passing grades.”
               “Are you violent or suicidal?” The judge asked.
               “No, Your Honor.”
               “That is all, be seated.”
               Logan sat back down. He looked at Janus for help.
               “We’re doing pretty good.” Janus whispered to them. “I think he’s almost done.”
               “We also have proof that the younger Mr. Foster was diagnosed and takes medication for clinical depression. And that he is prone to sleepwalking.”
               “So?” His Honor said blankly.
               “So, susceptibility to that kind of diagnosis is telling of how gullible my brother is.” Payton added. “You wouldn’t hand a child over to a man who sent money to a Nigerian prince, so how is this any different? His so-called illness shows a weakness of character.”
               “Mr. Pent.” Judge Douglass looked down at him. “That’s stupid. Is that all you had to discredit your brother with?”
               “No, Your Honor.” Payton said. “Patton went to pieces after our mother passed away. I was worried for Virgil’s safety, so I left with him. And ended contact with my brother.”
               “Why were you worried for your son’s safety?” The judge sighed.
               “Patton was unstable, and I couldn’t be sure that he didn’t, well, put Mom out of her misery, so to speak.”
               Patton tried to jump up, but Virgil was in his lap.
               “Objection Your Honor.” Janus jumped to his feet. “That is unwarranted slander.”
               “Hold on.” His Honor put a finger up. “You mean to tell me that you suspected your brother of murder and did nothing?”
               “Well… I… didn’t think he’d do it again.” Payton stumbled.
               “Then why was your son in danger?”
               “I…”
               “Objection sustained.” The judge looked at Janus.
               “Furthermore.” Payton continued. “Logan was kicked out of his parent’s house because he wouldn’t get a job.”
               “Logan’s financial records show that he was working at CVS from the age of sixteen until he was twenty-three. He was the assistant manager by the time he left to pursue teaching.” Janus countered. “Records also show that his parents disowned him when he came out as gay. There is a police report of the assault.”
               “Was that your final claim?” The judge looked deeply unimpressed.
               “We would also like to call to question the dependability of Dr. Picani, seeing as he both diagnosed Virgil and cleared Mr. Foster, the younger one, and Mr. Berry for adoption. Records prove that Dr. Picani, during his residency, stabbed someone.”
               Judge Douglass growled in his throat.
               “Dr. Picani, please stand up.” He sighed.
               Emile stood up sheepishly.
               “For the benefit of the court and to keep anyone else from bringing it up today, would you please tell the story?”
               “While I was a resident at the hospital, a man came in with a gun. He was unstable and openly firing at people. I was trying to get people out of the hallway, and he came across me and a patient. He aimed at us, so, I stepped in front of my patient and tried to talk him down. Then I stabbed him in the ear with a pen. He dropped the gun and I took it. Security took him away.”
               “What was the official verdict of the stabbing?”
               “Self-defense.” Emile said, fidgeting with his tie. “I got a medal.”  
“Very good, you can sit down now.” The judge looked back at Payton and the lawyer. “I assume you read the police report. So, why, after reading this report, did you think it would help your case?”
“In my defense your honor,” The lawyer said. “Confronting a shooter unarmed is not exactly the psychological profile of a stable individual.”
“Neither is yours.” The judge said flatly. “Custody is awarded to Mr. Foster and Mr. Berry.”
His honor hit his hammer on the desk thing.  
“Wait, that’s all?” Patton mumbled as they stood up.
“We had more than enough.” Logan put his arm around him. “I told you.”
Virgil looked between them as if he were entranced.  
“You were very brave up there, sweetie.” He pulled his anxious baby into a hug.
With shaking hands, Virgil grabbed his jacket and clutched it until his knuckles showed.
“Virgil,” Logan put a hand on his shoulder. “Do you understand what just happened?”
Virgil nodded from inside Patton’s jacket and Patton felt him go limp in his arms.
“I think he fainted again.” Patton tightened his grip.
“I’m still here.” Virgil mumbled. “I-I can’t feel my legs.”
“Yeah, he’s having a panic attack.” Logan nodded, feeling Virgil’s forehead. “We should get him home.”
Nodding in agreement, Patton picked Virgil up bridal style. He was a little heavy, but still only about a hundred pounds.
“I can walk.” Virgil protested dizzily.
No one really acknowledged his saying that for many reasons. The most obvious being that it clearly wasn’t true. They walked outside and Patton set Virgil on one of the steps. He had hoped that the fresh air would be good for him, but it was summer in Florida and the air was so thick that you could see it.
Once he was sitting down Virgil put his head between his knees and continued to gasp and cough.
“Are you ok baby?” Patton asked rubbing his back.
“Yeah…” He strained. “I’m fine.”
“Ok.” Logan pressed a pill into Virgil’s hand. “Take this.”
Virgil silently complied and Logan handed him a bottle of water.
“You two and water.” Virgil snorted.
“Water is a natural tranquilizer, and the most necessary thing for the human body second only to air.”
Virgil slammed half the bottle and put the lid back on.
“I’m sorry.” He mumbled, wiping his mouth with his sleeve.
“What in the world are you sorry for?” Patton pulled his anxious baby into his lap.
“I wasn’t supposed to freak out.” Virgil slumped into him. “I think I was supposed to be ecstatically happy or something.”
“Are you happy?” Logan asked, untying Virgil’s tie and unbuttoning his collar.
“Yes, I can’t remember ever being happier.” Virgil scoffed.
“Then what’s the problem?” Patton asked, punctuating it with a kiss.
“No one is asking you start singing songs from Annie.” Logan pushed his bangs back. “We both just want you to be content that it’s over now.”
“It is, isn’t it?” Virgil laughed. “It’s finally over.”
With that said, Virgil wrapped his arms around Patton like an octopus and started sobbing. Roman appeared and took a picture of the three of them on his phone.
“Really?” Logan looked at him blankly.
“Yes. The framing was perfect, and we need something for Patton’s scrap books.” Roman justified.
“It’s ok sweetie.” Patton cooed. “I know it’s a lot to take in. But now you have two dads instead of one rotten dad.”
Patton paused as the weight of what he had just said hit him. He was a dad! He had a baby now! Virgil really was his dark strange son! His baby, their baby! He and Logan both, they were dads now!
“Logan.” Patton squeaked, feeling tears already trailing down his cheeks. “We’re parents!”
“I realize that.”
“We have a son!”
“I know, I was there.” Logan laughed.
“We have a son, and his name is Virgil, and he’s ours! He’s our son!”
Logan wrapped his arms around both of them and started laughing. Roman took a picture of that too.
“Why are we laughing?” Virgil sniffed, pulling his head out of Patton’s chest.
“Because we’re happy.” Logan said quickly, ruffling Virgil’s hair.
“Are we now?” Virgil teased.
Patton put Virgil’s chin in his hands and peppered his face with dozens of tiny kisses.
“We’re as happy as we’ve ever been before.” He sniffled.  
“I am too.” Virgil sighed, nestling himself into Patton’s chest again.

I'm sure just are there are many others who are suffering from the financial setbacks of this virus, it has hit my life very hard financially.

I am not receiving pay for either jobs as substitutes do not receive any pay for off time like this and my license as a psychic reader is constituted as independent contractor who hasn't worked enough days (aka no money coming in).
On top of this, I also live with my parents who have gotten laid off with no pay and have extreme difficultly reaching the unemployment office. Both of my parents have health issues moreso my dad with his lungs where he cannot afford to be out in the world with this disease spreading.
This leads me to my next statement. I will be homeless next month. This whole situation has brought up my BPD and anxiety to barely manageable levels. I am at the point of trying to get any form of financial aid and am now asking here for just that.

repost,  don’t reblog
Tumblr media
BASICS.
full name.   Tidus pronunciation.    Teedus nickname.  Ace, Star Player, Jecht’s son gender.  Male (he/him) height.   5′9″ or 175 cm age.  17-18  &&  20 in ‘Will’  zodiac.   His true date of birth is unknown, so we can’t be sure. if we follow the trend of also Zidane and Squall etc DOBs, Tidus would be born on October 10th and be a Libra. but given he’d be the most dysfunctional Libra ever I personally doubt it ahah I headcanon him being born on July 19th, the day FFX was first released, so his zodiac sign here would be Cancer. spoken languages.   Common Spiran which is the same language spoken in his Zanarkand, tiny bits of Al Bhed learnt during the pilgrimage.
PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS.
hair color.   Dark blond with brown roots. As a child, he had light-brown hair. eye color.   Sea-blue irises, the same as his mother’s. skin tone.     Quite tanned, mostly the result of hours spent outside - probably practising under the sun. Actually, he isn’t fair-skinned even as a child - nor his parents seem to present a particular pale tone of skin which may have genetic reasons involved, but teen/adult Tidus would still be more tanned than he himself looked like as a seven-year-old boy. body type.   He has an athletic built, which comes from his years of swimming and blitzball practice. He’s a little underweight for his height and age, though. At the age of seventeen, Tidus’ muscle form is already very defined and toned. accent.  Tidus present a rather funny and child-like sounding accent most of the time - or when he’s not being too serious or firm; for example, his original dub has him ending sentences in --SSU, which is a very informal and friendly deflexion, also used by very young people. That makes it sound like he sometimes changes words in a rather playful manner (in the japanese dub), which would simply translate in him just sounding very informal. voice.   He has a very sharp voice, that leans on higher tones when he’s relaxed or excited. When more serious, instead, he tends to drop some tones in his voice pitch, but he doesn’t really notice it, and when he does it doesn’t bother Tidus.  dominant hand.  He is right-handed, he’s seen throwing the ball in Blitz with that and he is also seen mostly kicking the ball with his right leg too. posture.   He’s an athlete, swimming agonistically has proved to make back muscles stronger and firmer, so standing correctly straight comes as something natural and effortless to him. Still, Tidus tends to slouch forward very often when he sits, it’s very rare to see him sitting straight anywhere when he’s made wait long periods of time or when he’s particularly bored. In those cases, he really looks nothing like the athlete he is -- as he props his weight whenever it feels more comfortable. scars.   Nothing major or too visible like his father, the few scars he’d have would mainly be the result of the most physical Blitz matches he has attended or just peculiar and tougher battles fought during the pilgrimage. tattoos.   // birthmarks.   // most noticeable feature(s).   His vivid eye-color, probably the contrast between skin tone and hair color too; weird clothes for Spiran standards.
CHILDHOOD.
place of birth.  Dream Zanarkand. hometown.   Dream Zanarkand. birth weight.   7 pounds. birth height.   Around 20 inches. manner of birth.   Natural birth. first words.   The common ones all toddlers learn first, or his own name. siblings.   // parents.  Unnamed mother and Jecht (father) parental involvement.   His mother would difficultly care and hardly give proper attention to the young Tidus whenever her husband was home from work; she was still a very docile and gentle figure to the boy, a composed yet often distracted kind of mother. She’d often cater all her strengths and attentions to Jecht, sometimes ignoring or neglecting the child’s cries or pleas till her husband would make her notice at last; as a child, Tidus simply didn’t notice this side of her or chose to forget about it, thinking instead his father would keep her away from him on purpose to monopolize her affection - a fact that did add to his childish reasons to hate Jecht. His father would be home for way less time than Tidus’ mother, because of his work. He was a rougher and brusque type of parent and despite loving his son, he could never express it clearly nor found a way to show him. Still, his father was somehow the one who sparkled in Tidus his sense of competitiveness and his passion for blitzball, no matter if the man would often verbally belittle his weak son’s poor attempts with a ball – that’s the type of father Tidus has believed to know. Still, Jecht was involved in his growth, the novel even reveals it was him who taught Tidus how to swim as a child. Once Jecht disappeared and was believed dead by his fans and city, Tidus’ mother fell chronically ill and depressed, ceasing to care or tend to her son. She died of sheer heartbreak shortly after Auron came to Zanarkand to become Tidus’ guardian. 
ADULT LIFE.
occupation.   Ace Player of the Abes Team back in Dream Zanarkand; Guardian when brought to Spira; post X-2, Tidus returns being a Blitzball player (most likely playing for the Aurochs) and quickly regains his once-lost fame and popularity. current residence.  Verse dependent. Dream Zanarkand before the events of FFX. Right after X-2, Besaid, but it is heavily implied he left the island to move to Bevelle a couple of years later his return, living near what’s called Mika-Road, the recently built street which leads to the new blitz stadium. close friends.  Yuna, Wakka, Rikku, Auron, Kimahri, Lulu. A part of me really wants to add Clasko to this, too, while he’s obviously not as close as the others for Tidus. relationship status.   Canon-ly speaking, in a relationship with Yuna. financial status.  I’d say, he’s in the financial middle class. Considering Spira’s hierarchy, nothing can really top the clergy, the monks, the priests and priestesses, not to mention the ex Maesters which I would consider the higher class. As Blitzball is considered an integral part of Spira, but it is not a humble job, that’s the class he would be part of. driver’s license.   Dream Zanarkand had cars and all but I guess he never got a license back there, and that kind of stuff just don’t exist in Spira; he has the chocobo riding license, haha, directly earned it through Calm Lands weird races. criminal record.  By Spiran Temple standards and teachings, he’s accused of heresy for having entered the sacred Cloisters when still not a guardian twice; he’s also accused of having conspired with Al Bhed and joined their insurrection back at Home, and of having interrupted an important Yevon wedding in the holy capital. He’s also accused of having opposed and most likely killed warrior monks during the wedding crash, not to count Guado guards in Macalania and Home. He escaped prison and became a ‘most wanted’, too, with a bounty on his head. Plus, opposing Yunalesca and Yu Yevon could be associated with blasphemy. He did partake in the murder of Seymour, a Maester of Yevon, not to mention the fact Spira did believe Tidus and the others had killed Kinoc too. I guess the accusations all fell with the following crisis of the Temple and the disappearance of Sin but… vices.   Being too loud, daydreaming, being too impatient. Pride.
SEX & ROMANCE.
sexual orientation.  Heterosexual romantic orientation.  Heteroromantic preferred emotional role.   submissive  |  dominant  |  switch preferred sexual role.   submissive  |  dominant  |  switch (?) libido.  Average for his age and curiosity, I guess. A little above that if we consider the novel. turn on’s.  // turn off’s.  // love language.   He’s anything but subtle when it comes to relationships and partners, even to a fault sometimes. He is a deeply affectionate boy despite the way he was raised, so he likes to prove it physically: hugs, hand-holding, pecks, kisses - love and tender signs and gestures, little favors and gifts, that’s just the tip of the iceberg. On a darker note, I guess it’s to be expected given his fear of loss and abandonment, but his love language is sincere nonetheless. relationship tendencies.   He was and is still seen as a charismatic boy. At home, he’d have many fans and girls fawning over him at every given occasion over him (and his bond with Jecht) - and while the attention is something that did fuel him, sorta, I bet it was something that was seen as a way to get into first relationships. Maybe even out of fear of solitude. It changes once he leaves Zanarkand for good, I guess his devotion for Yuna speaks louder than any other word.
MISCELLANEOUS.
character’s theme song.    X hobbies to pass time.   Swimming, playing blitzball, cooking and eating, reading Al Bhed primers, practising fighting and time-related spells, napping, daydreaming. mental illnesses.   Anxiety disorders, fear of abandonment. physical illnesses.   // left or right-brained.   Right-brained. fears.   Loneliness, to disappear, abandonment, silence. self-confidence level.  It’s a rollercoaster... it goes from high to low depending on both situation and mood. vulnerabilities.  To be considered weak, or too emotive. Also... Yuna?

Guess I’ll Draw: Stuff that Keeps One up at Night
Have you ever had those times where you’re really tired, and you are so ready for sleep.......
Then suddenly, INSOMNIA.
Tumblr media
Difficultly falling asleep, for me, means there’s something  important in my life I've been trying to ignore:
In the autumn of 2018, I needed to take the next step with ToP. 
Earlier this week, I needed to address financial concerns.
In both cases, regular sleep didn’t resume until solid steps to resolve the root problem were taken:
In 2018, it took weeks to really sort things out, making the insomnia last longer.
This week it only occurred one night, because I wrote a list and plan down that night and then started acting on it the next day.
So just a note for me in the future: Look at life stressors and how to resolve them -- rather than just getting really annoyed that insomnia is happening.
Still... even if you do planning and so on that night, sometimes the brain just won’t shut up.
If you have any trouble sleeping, what’s your go-to aid? Tart cherry juice is one option for me -- earlier this week, I was so desperate I drank the concentrate straight, no water added. Disgusting, but effective.

🌪 Aquarius Season (Jan. 20-Feb 19)♒
This has become a time where we are getting ourselves out of entanglements & low vibrational situations that will no longer serve us in this year, or this brand new decade. You may have been holding back from moving on from these situations, or holding onto them for unhealthy reasons, whether it be for emotional or financial security, but the horn of judgement has sounded & you will finally see the light in regards to this. Leaving behind what you once felt made you secure will be a theme here, & the lack of making this gesture will continue to usher in more challenging times. The root (or base) chakra comes out to emphasize your need for security, stability, & your ability to have a grounded foundation for your spiritual & physical energy. If you feel drained or ungrounded, you may want to look at the situation around you, & note if you need a change in some areas or not. That, or you may not be in the best place mental to believe that you can achieve so much more. You may be in, or are coming out of, a state of contemplation about what it will take to build up your stability, & are moving into a time of celebration & achievement that you have worked for, & now you shouldn't allow for your faith in what you've built to be in vain or go to waste.
There seems to be a choice needing to be made & it may have to do with bringing change to your situation, & it may be through communication. You may be confident & nervous about this choice at the same time, because this is going to become an overpowering transformation in your life, & it may lead you down the path you were meant to be on. You may have been fighting yourself for this change to happen for some time, or you may have been having inner conflict that has caused transformation for you to become more emotionally grounded & stable. You needed to be more emotionally conscious in order to send out news of your changes & it may have been delayed for some time now, & it led to delays in reuniting with someone (possibly a feminine energy) that you had immaturity or short term focus towards, to which their open mindedness led them astray to be tricked. This is a friend to you & you are making the journey to reconcile your connection because it was an opportunity missed.
You may be feeling more & more anxious about what you've been sacrificing for you chances a complete happiness, or you may be feeling like your sacrifices have been going to waste. It may have been met with much interruption of what was keeping you comfortable, as well as deception that has threatened to knock you off of your direction, but your ancestral guidance won't allow you to be completely deceived. You have a clear pathway to make a choice, & what your intuition is telling you is that the path you choose may lead you to some confusion, or you may be becoming aware of the choices that are no good for you. This ambiguity may be leaving you in much indecision, but you have the inner knowledge you need to face this crossroad head on. You've become deeply illuminated to the spiritual authority within, & it has given you high hopes, despite those around you that insist on asserting themselves. You will be transformed by this labyrinth you have been facing for some time now, & you have the advantage of those who aren't as aware as you.
You may be releasing yourself from an opportunity that could have left you feeling imprisoned or restricted. This opportunity could have been missed due to inexperienced choices, or lack of being stable in open mindedness. You may have been feeling bonded by finding security in a promise or in a commitment & this negative cycles could have been ongoing due to your desire for stability or that you were attached to your ambitions. This could have been contributing to obstacles in your desires, & has led you down a road of disappointment. You seem to be releasing yourself from this, as you study upon a more abundant prosperity then what you thought possible before. You are looking toward new beginnings past combative & aggressive natures, & putting an end to your fight. You are being given choices, but you may be plagued by indecision, nervousness, or believing your choices seem chaotic, but something is beginning to lose value to you. You are cutting out what you've been craving or addicted to as well, as you may be having some conflict between desires & virtues.
Your push forward is slow but steady, & your happiness in relationships or your own successes can be leaving you feeling emotionally comfortable, but on your throne others could be obviously vying for your attention, & this could be through social outings or aggressive & competitive through coworkers in your career. You could be exceeding your own security & expectations, & you will look up one day & see all that what you've invested in will offer you a beginning to a new project, or a passionate new beginning will bring about the creative endeavors & opportunities that you feel you have been ready to take action toward. You may feel if you take on this pursuit, you will be attracting both fans of your work, or haters of your talent. You are taking initiative to embrace this new creative spark, & making the decision to accept the challenges that will end up being rewarded to you in the end. You may be feeling conflicted whether or not you should go through with it, but know that whether you will be well received or not that you have those people out there that are for you & that are always supportive of you & everything you set your mind to.
You may be feeling at a crossroads about what you have been passionately wanting to persue, but you may be feeling a lot of nervousness about inexperience. You have recently overcome a lot of hurt regarding a partnership, because it has caused you difficultly in finding trust or hope in it anymore. This may be a time for you to level up in your status, because you have been putting in the hard work & are ready to receive recognition for it. You probably didn't read the fine print in a very strict or tense situation, & it was bound to either pass or fail, but it seemed as if its ending was inevitable. It caused pain for you, & it took you some time to realize you were dealing with someone deceptive (could be a female or of feminine energy). You are becoming alert to these sudden changes in your connection & it has brought you to take a breather & come to a place of overcoming the pain. Your hard work & drive will pay off for you, because you will be making more room to manifest the real opportunities or partnerships that are truly in alignment to you, after you cut out the baggage or burdensome energy.
You or someone you're connecting with may be feeling a lack of security in where they are now, & this may be directly regarding a relationship. The commitments made at the time seemed promising, but it seemed to be all in vain. This can have to do with a true pair to you that is of the same emotional caliber, or you each have true, stable emotions for one another. The masculine energy here is holding onto a relationship that has yet to have its hidden ideals to be revealed, for there is a dogmatic agenda behind it. They may be having better ideas of a connection, where there is much security in love, & they could have someone particular in mind, someone who feels secure in their emotions. There is an innocence that one is feeling for the other, while the other (feminine) energy had to make a painful choice in value of their freedom. It has become a lonely journey for them, as they move away from tradition into a new beginning, where they plan to travel to their happiness with their burdens on their backs & their unbearable challenges awaiting them. Subconscious family influences may need to be addressed.
After recovering from a time where you were loyal to a lighthearted friend or an opportunity for a friendship that may have brought complications to your emotional health or caused an emotional dependence, you may have been taking some much needed concentration on your goals & you have been studying your way to manifesting them. You may be feeling like things have been held up or that you have been waiting a long time with no avail. What you don't see is that things are moving for you behind the scenes, whether they are quickly revealed, or there is a climax reaching to a slow enough buildup. Either way, you are having the restraint you need to not question the powers that be, in fact, you are beginning to find magic in the build up, the confusion, or in the unknown. You may have to deal with conflict between hope and suspicion, where suspicion overwhelms all areas of your life. You're needing to discipline yourself as you may be feeling as if you've been taking a commitment lightly or your lack of commitments brought confusion, clouded judgment or expectation, but you are holding onto hope & displaying strong faith. You may recieve communication that creates opportunities & stability after a period of things hanging in the balance.
You may be accustomed to some new beginnings that may seem divinely guided to bring a partner into your life, whether that be financial or romantic, you or they seem to be very strongly by the way they feel. The actions that want to be taken is giving a token of sincerity or stability, but it may be leaving the other either uninterested, or focused on their own existence rather than being locked down by their feelings, which seem to be mutual. The action is delayed by a going back & forth from making the decision to have this person become a part of their family (or life), & they don't seem to want to take no for an answer. Regardless of how the stable feminine energy feels, the passionate masculine energy is wanting to extend a tangible invitation to establish a foundation, & he may be reluctant in letting go. The feminine could have felt left out in the cold before, or felt as if she needed to start over after much poverty & disappointment, which may in turn have her feel back & forth about accepting this offer, for she would either want something bigger & better, or she may be focused on her own alignment & not wanting anything or anyone else interrupting her peace & security.
You have a budding commitment to your dreams & you aren't letting up on your grip to achieve them, but there is much worry about opening up to the opportunities that you feel can be within your reach. You may feel yourself to be restrained from walking the path that was meant for you, because of a possible interruption in a sure contract. You may have to have some stressful conversations that you aren't open to having or initiating, but there is suspicion about the change or transition that is being discussed regarding your desires. There is fears of having to end your desires or to give up on them because you either have too many or they are a bit in a messy place. Small conflicts brought upon burdens for you, but you are bound to get some lucky news for your efforts. You are able to push forward, even after much feelings of stress, & even though you may feel your strength is decaying, but as long as you still have your heart in your motivation, you can't stray away from what you desire, & I think is sure to find you first.
There may be a transformation in dealing with some grief that involves moving away from public influences, & this can have to do with some suffering because of vulnerability. In completion of this, you are achieving clarity & refuge after much struggle & pain. You're overcoming dependent ties to repressed emotions & you are having a clearer vision beyond the shadows or overcoming the illusion of awareness. This is a continual & self-generating renewal from an energy of detachment from emotions or thought patterns from a masculine energy, in an attempt to not give in to their vulnerability toward a hopeful, trusting or spiritual feminine with a lot of depth, & they harbored confusion about what one values. Whether this is you, or someone you're connecting with, this is an opportunity to have a new stable beginning that is more clear on what their values entail. This masculine energy has a sense of nervous excitement, yet having worries about their responsibilities or burdens, & putting an end to having to be restrained from insecurity when it comes to pleasing others.
You could be feeling like you are (or were) in a painful situation that you felt was a perfect circumstance that was full of love, happiness & satisfaction. Instead, it is prompting you to be in search of your own freedom & successes, which is going to be a combative & defensive struggle for what you feel you rightfully deserve. Whether you are leaving your current social circle because your discovery creates much suffering, or you could be moving away from a burdening or strict relationship to more pleasing & lighthearted experiences. The time is coming for you to begin to examine your situation deeper & see it for what it is, & it could be a lot of stress on a circumstance you've hoped for. This burdening commitment is going to force you from staying in it too much longer, even if it is causing you mental anguish. This situation brought about complicated & irregular passages or paths that you seemed to be loyal to at the time, but it has caused you to feel like it was all to a fault. You seem to be focused on your individual happiness & fulfillment, you have no problem flying solo to get there.
You may be moving away from a financial situation that seemed to be losing its value, & you may feel the end of challenging times nearing. You have taken some time to evaluate a situation that no longer seems to be working for you, & it is leaving you feeling trapped in your own mental prison, but overcoming what you have begun to move away from will bring tangible new beginnings for you that feel promising. You may be experiencing your fears & anxieties as you navigate through this tough time, but you already took the big steps to be more productive. Celebrating your freedom will need for you to heal your mental capacity without being hard on yourself. You are needing to make plenty of important & life altering decisions that are going to contribute to building yourself back up from having to start over. You are reflecting on what kept you held back in the past & are allowing the transformation to take place, because you know it is for your highest good. You are taking this fresh start seriously, as you have overcome bigger challenges in your life that you seemed to be a novice to, & you are letting your vision take its course for the bigger picture that you plan to initiate, now that you are certain of your convictions, now more than ever.
