#my summer is about to be so busy omg I can't wait

I'm here once more to talk about RWRB fan culture difference :D
Okay so the thing is people in China can't access Prime, so they watch a "pirated" version on Bilibili, the closest Chinese platform to YouTube
And on most Chinese video platforms, including Bilibili, there's this thing called "bullet comments", which are comments that float across the screen as the scene is playing, so the audience can comment in real-time (according to my sister: 'it's like a twitch chat but instead of staying in the chatbox as god intended everything flies across the screen like a flock of deranged geese')
And it can be problematic at times, especially when people start an argument with bullet comments, as it is with idol culture-related videos
But for RWRB, for the most part, the bullet comments are civil
Now the fun thing is that you can get genuinely wonderful comments like these:
Tumblr media
He was alone on an island, but then he came...
He swims toward the little prince, and since then the lonely island blossoms like spring, a neverending glorious summer.
Tumblr media
The freeing wind of Texas breezed past the Atlantic Ocean, awakening the dying rose of the London Castle
"Idealistic" is good, we need "idealistic" works to show people another possibility
Tumblr media
Statues tell the stories of a million lives, and they are an ordinary pair among them
But then you also have hilarities like these:
Tumblr media
The entire pink circle is literally just feral screaming, 啊="AHHHHHH"
Ha, I put on my earphones
I'm overwhelmed by the gays
Tumblr media
Poor security guard (Amy) Hahahahahaha
Alex: These Flowers are really flowery
Henry: OMG These books are so bookish
In moments of awkwardness, everyone will pretend they are really busy
Tumblr media
I'm on the streets...What do I do
Wait! Who's the top! (yeah top or bottom is a.. weirdly strict thing in Chinese LGBT culture)
Remember to pull the curtain!!!!
Fuck Me Am I allowed to watch this?
I really like a quote from Bilibili audience's: "AHH???"
So when I watch stuff on Bilibili, I have to watch it twice: once for the actual video, and once for the *chef's kiss bullet comments that are either poems that I copied down onto my notebook or things that make me laugh until I choke
I really want to share more of these comments, but there are like thousands of them and certain things can't be translated into English. Maybe I'll go through it scene by scene and pick out some fun ones that I can translate?

Some deformed jumbled mess of whatever this idea is has been rattling around in my adhd riddled brain for weeks now and I'm finally forcing myself to write it down, it is barely fleshed out in the slightest (hence, "deformed") and only the main idea is in my brain right now so I'm basically making it up as I write this so, apologies.
The Fenton parents (for whatever reason) decide that Gotham is the perfect place to spend their summer vacation, and while their there through some
💫Wacky Shananagans💫
Danny ends up meeting (omg your never gonna guess this, it's so out of this world for me, who only has one dpxdc post so far and it's this ship as well, it's so wacky and wild, blow your brains out pew pew pew)
DAMIAN!!!!!!💥💥💥💥💥💥‼‼‼‼💥💥💥💥💀💀💀💀💀:O
What the what!?!?!??!?,! WHO WOULD'VE THOUGHT????? I AINT MEVER DUN DIS BEFORE!!!!!!!!
Anyway basically they have a summer romance because idk mwa mwa kissy noises gay gay homosexual gay and whathajaga
And then idk I had this that that like, I saw someone say once somethen like "damn tho the most unrealistic thing about this show is that nobody at that damn school thought Danny was hot💀" and I thought like, "damn bitch that true tho." So like idk, I thought like, I'm pretty sure its psychological fact or whatever (this gonna be damn embarrassing if that isnt true tho cuss ona my possible options ideas plans whatever for college is psychology💀) that confidants makes people more attractive, so like, ig like Danny builds confidence over the summer with you know, getting a boyfriend, Damian not taking any of that whatever bullshit idk ahjaobznaja or maybe just ghost aura shit whatever idfk whatever you want.
Basically when he goes home at back to school after summer break is over people suddenly realize "oh shit wait whys he kinda hot tho," and the fuckers like randos, maybe a-listers, whoever's just a buncha people like flirting tryna shoot their shot whatever, but then Danny's just like, thinking about how much he loves his boyfriend and how much he can't wait to see him in person again and what not. I also like to think Danny probably didn't even tell anyone at school he got a boyfriend, like maybe he even forgot to tell Sam and Tucker because he was to busy being fucking lovestruck, I mean I doubt that would actually happening and it's more likely that he'd constantly be gushing to them about Damian rather then not and I actually like that idea a lot better now that I thing about it that other one was more of a funny little side thought idk. But yeah nobody knows besides like Sam Tucker and Jazz, so yeah.
On o think that's it for me I'm done good night y'all *cue mic drop*

Chapter 3 - Battle of the Slimes
Wednesday, Spring 22
Spring flies by, and before you know it, summer is in less than a week. You have been so thankful for everyone in town who's helped you get your garden and farm back up and running after the big storm. Robin and Sebastian have gone above and beyond. He even went as far as to help build you that chicken coop with his mom at a discounted price. Things are feeling a lot better thanks to the kindness so many townsfolk have shown you. You are really feeling lucky to have ended up in a place where people are so considerate of each other, everyone in the big city couldn't care less of what happens to everyone else. 
Sebastian has been around helping on the farm several times since the big storm. He is still fairly quiet and has been very focused on his work and helping you. You've had some nice encounters and continue chatting, but there has not been any one one-on-one time for you to get closer to him, you're starting to think maybe he's changed his mind or maybe the entire encounter was more just him being friendly...
BuzzBuzz
"Oh, it's Abby."
Abigail: "Hey girl! You will never believe it! Guess what?" 
(Y/N): "Hey Abbs, no what? Tell me."
Abigail: "I asked Sebastian to hangout today and he actually said yes! Just the two of us at my place! Can you believe it, maybe he's finally going to give me a chance, I am so excited!."
(Y/N): Omg! Have fun! LMK how it goes!"
You glance over at Sebastian he's walking over to the coop carrying a heavy box of chicken feed for you as one of the finishing touches. This will be their last day here. You can't help but notice how fit his arms are, although he's fairly thin he clearly has toned muscles from all the work he does with his mom. You glance over at Robin also working hard hammering in the window frame. "I guess he's not that muscular" you giggle to yourself seeing how buff Robin's arms are... "So maybe he is into Abby now? Maybe that's why he's been a little awkward since the morning of the storm." you feel your stomach turn at the thought. "That's okay, I want them to be happy and they are clearly so similar they would be better together." you convince yourself, continuing your gardening. 
____________
Seb's POV
BuzzBuzz
Abigail: "Good morning Seb, I know you're super busy but I got a new game and was hoping to get a player 2 to beat this level...and maybe some lunch." 
"She's so persistent." He scoffs to himself. "Why not just go hang out with her and tell her the truth Sebby, you've been friends long enough she will understand, you can't just keep leading her on and ignoring her," Robin adds as she continues hammering. "Ugh," he signs. "Sebby, you will break her heart if you end up with someone else without any warning." "Fine" he replies sharply. 
Sebastian: "Sure, what time?."
Abigail: "My place, how about 12:30 PM"
Sebastian: "ok"
2 hours later
"Hey, Mom I'm gonna go see Abby now and grab lunch." "Alright, see you at home after," she replies with a wave. 
He sees you working hard clearing more weeds. "Lunch." he mouths to you almost as if he's trying to make sure you remember to stop for a break too. You smile and give him a wave as he walks off. 
"Wait a sec, he usually goes home for lunch the other way... could he be going to see Abby already?" you think to yourself and let out a sigh.
....It was too long to upload it all please continue reading on Wattpad link above <33

HIII BABY 💙
How are you my love? I'm sorry I haven't answered you sooner, I've had a busy few days and I haven't been home much.
These last few days I'm especially happy, looking forward to enjoy the summer to the fullest 😊
I guess you've already listened to h2ao acoustic and... OMG I LOVE IT. Madison is gorgeous and her voice? Hello? The voice of an angel. She sang with so much strength and feeling. i loved it. And how cute was Presley? Awww he even had his headphones on, what more could you ask for?
And OMG, YES I'm livin with the podcasts Mads is doing. Especially the Pretty Basic podcasts, I haven't finished listening to part two yet, but I love them. I'm finding them so enjoyable and fun...it's like a girlfriend conversation that I'm a part of too even though I'm just listening, you know? It's great. And I loved that they touched on the hate Madison has received with the publication of her memoir and how she's taken it
Wow yeah, The scene in h2ao where Mads is in the UFO in the white suit is superior. She looks so beautiful! I don't know about you, but to me that scene gives me vibes to her scene in the Baby music video, when she's wearing that little moons suit, you know? I don't know why, but I feel like there's a certain resemblance between the two
As for the ranking... my top for the song itself is: 1- Reckless, 2- Dangerous, 3- Home to Another One and 4- Showed me. Although I love them all obviously. And as for mv I'd say Reckless is still in first place (it's one of my favorite Madison songs, if not the most and I hold it close to my heart) 2- Home to Another One, 3- Showed me and 4- Dangerous
Moonlight, you are so cute ♡ I love you so much and I adore writing and fangirling with you, you are the best 💕
I LOVE YOU MY GODDESS
🌘💙👽🛸
HI MY LOVE.
And I am so sorry for the 4 days late qsdfghgfd. we should stop apologize but yet i can't help it dgfds.
OMG isn't it too hot where you live? cause I'm not living in a hot place and yet I AM SO FUCKING HOT LIKE....NOPE it's too much
OMG YES I DID and i have it on repeat, her voice, her vulnerability when she sings, the EMOTIONS??? HELLO MISS BEER DONT DO THIS TO ME. I am so glad Presley was there he brings her peace you can see that her voice sounds steady when he's present in the scenery which is so cute to see!!
YOU ARE SO RIGHT ABOUT THIS she already had the inspo in Baby !!
if i have to be COMPLETELY honest, I've not had my crush songs like i had with follow the white rabbit, which i knew from the first 3 seconds of the snippet that it would be on repeat and still is till this day you know? but i'm waiting for the whole album to b released.
YOU ARE THE BEST I LOVE YOU SO. honestly you're such a ray of both sun and moon altogether
*GIVES YOU MY HEART*

hopping in to greet you skye! 🖤 I know I've made myself scarce but I figured this is how I am going to be conserving my limited energy (i guess this is an excuse? justification?)
How have you been? How's uni if you're in semester and if not then when do you start?
I have a summer semester now, with on course subject (Community Medicine) which is basically just research, public health stuff and biostatistics in one subject (knowing that I've taken each of these separately before lmao). We're actually starting with our research project, it feels weird to be doing something other than hospital rounds and endlessly gobbling up dense medical material, but I'm hoping for something good, maybe even getting published in a journal. Also, I've taken up leadership in my team so uhmmm pulling a Seungcheol here lol. It's so hot it's annoying the heck out of me, and next week the forecast says it's gonna hit 40°C like????? I can't wait for winter girl, I am soooo done. As for writing, I think there's a good ass block, but yk what I'm not gonna force anything, I'm busy enough to worry about other things and slowly figure out what i want to do, barely any content from me but oh well.
I'll be showing up in your asks here and there, sorry for ghosting it's nothing personal. I missed you, and I hope you're well. Mwah🖤🖤🖤
EBONI LOVE! im so happy you dropped by! i have to confess i'd been thinking about you these last few days, wondering how you were doing and telling myself i should drop by your inbox haha. and here you are <3 i've missed you so much.
uni has been okay, it's been busy. i have my exams going on right now, have two practicals exams this week, lowkey nervous i just hope i just mess on on the viva part lmao. tmi i also made pasta for dinner tonight.
omg publishing a journal sounds so cool??? i know you'll slay. and wishing you all the best for your research project too!
noo summer sucks, im glad summer is over for me it's not so hot like it was. it's been rainy and a pleasant weather overall.
and writersblock :( im sure it'll unblock it self with time. i understand you're busy too so don't force yourself to write it's okay. you're an amazing writer im sure you'll find your writing spell again ^^
and i've missed you too! i hope you've been taking care and doing well! how did your exams go btw? sending you lots of love and hugs eboni <33 and please do pop by my inbox i would love that.

Reading The Hidden Oracle: Chapter 20 (SPOILERS)
"Of course, the previous Oracle had been a withered corpse, so perhaps the bar was low." Yeah, that's... that's a pretty low bar. Is the Oracle a job you can really bring excitement and vigor to? Most of the time it's just going about your day and making sure you're prepared to be possessed at any moment, right? Sometimes getting prophetic visions (in Rachel's case, prophetic paintings) and the occasional prophecy poem?
"Miss Dare looked thinner and older . . . She was not the same person." Wow, I guess the capture of Delphi not only affects the Oracle spirit but also its host vessel? That, and she just came from the Clarion Ladies' Academy, which cannot be a fun experience.
"stale crackers from the Oracle's larder." LARDER (n.): a room or large cupboard for storing food
"[Millard and Herbert] arrived at my house badly wounded. They... they didn't make it." What killed the satyrs??? Did the Beast send someone or something after them to try to keep Rachel from getting to camp? Omg imagine being Rachel: the Oracle suddenly stops working, all prophecies stop working even after Gaea is gone, then in the middle of your miserable boarding school year, two satyrs arrive at your home bleeding to death and you come to camp hoping for answers only to find the god that's supposed to help you fix the prophecies has been turned human. Bad year. Anyway, neither of them were the satyr that was teaching the music class or announcing the death race, right? No, I looked it up. That was Woodrow.
"That is the building you described last summer . . . where you parleyed with the Romans." "how did the Romans take over such prime Manhattan real estate on such short notice?" WAIT THAT'S RIGHT. I always thought we were just supposed to suspend our disbelief on stuff like that, like how and where the Romans got enough cars to take them and all their stuff across the country or whoever Octavian bought those HOUSE-SIZED onager catapults from. I just assumed they had connections with demigods who made it out in the mortal world.
"The mother company is something called Triumvirate Holdings." That sounds very Roman. "a ruling council of three . . . in ancient Rome." "three shadowy figures stood talking together--men in business suits" Is this serious? Is the Big Bad of this series going to be a corporation? Is Apollo's task going to be to... Is Apollo going to have to take down capitalism? Is the Big Bad capitalism? LMAO prophecy and capitalism: the two themes of TOA (jkjkjk)
"Adult demigods? I can't imagine they would be Greek, but perhaps Roman?" PFFFT HAHAHA Yes, because CHB doesn't prepare their kids for life in the outside world; they just assume they won't live 'til twenty and if they do, they won't last out there for long! :D
"the weapons were paid for by Triumvirate Holdings." Oh, so they paid for it, but they still bought them from somewhere. WHO??? Who sells ancient Roman siege weapons? "Luke Castellan mentioned he had backers in the mortal world . . . enough money to buy a cruise ship, helicopters, weapons . . . mortal mercenaries." OH AND LUKE! This goes far back! And lol, yeah, cruise ship with mortals included. This goes deep...
"What if this company is the root cause of... well, everything?" What are they, the Illuminati? Did they cause the Great Stirring or at least profit off of it?
"Rachel sat up straight. 'Excuse me? Oracles plural?'" Lol Rachel, you should be familiar with the gods and their infidelity by now. Jkjk but it's funny to see her jealous of him having other Oracles even though Delphi is obviously his favorite.
So, a triumvirate is a leading group of three -- a trio. And it's implied that Triumvirate Holdings is run by three ancient Romans. But the Roman emperors quiz I took on the Read Riordan website had four possible results! (The words "YOU GOT CALIGULA!" will forever haunt me.) Let's just see how this goes, then.

omg I saw your reply to another person that you are taking a fandom break to work on becoming a PUBLISHED AUTHOR and I am SO EXCITED! Can you share any hints about it e.g. genre? How is the writing process going? Hope all works out for you, can't wait to read it x
This is seriously the nicest thing! I can’t believe I still have people that want to read my work after producing absolutely nothing the last month 🥹🥹 I am constantly surprised by how supportive and lovely my readers are. Just when I think you can’t get better, you do 😭
Life has just been so so busy lately. I got a promotion at work, every weekend I’ve taken the kids out of town to visit family, we’re spending every afternoon at the pool. June was a beautiful HOT month and I’m glad that I took the break, because I’m ready to write again!
So, the writing process for my upcoming project is different than what I usually do. I’m participating in Camp NaNo, which is a more casual summer version of the big NaNoWriMo that I participate in every November. I have a word count goal (30k) for the end of July, and the plan is to write at least 1k a day every day for the whole month of July. Usually, I just write like the wind (I think my record was like 10k words in a day 🥴). But I’m hoping that taking my time and going slower will help improve my writing. Like if I only get 1k a day, I better make them great!
As for genre, it’s a romance 🥰 because it’s my favorite. And it’s kind of a darker, but hopefully still sexy and funny.
Thank you for the ask, nonny! And indulging/supporting my dreams ❤️

Stray kids imagine:
How you first met :D
Hyung line
Chan
Tumblr media
It was summer night and you wanted some alone time so you went to the nearest beach to get ur mind off of things, you only brought your towel and with you cuz you didn't wanted to be distracted by ur phone, you wanted to enjoy the evening breeze and smell of the sea. You placed ur pink towel on the sand before sitting on it, you took off your jacket and placed it under ur head as a pillow and stared at the sky "she so relaxing" you said to yourself with big smile on ur face. You thought you were alone at the beach but you were wrong! A dog suddenly came up to you and jumped on you, you screamed and sat up "Omg you scared me!" The dog sat on towel next to you and you look at him while blinking "where did you come from?" You are so confused but then you heard running "Berry!" A make voice suddenly called and u turned to the guy as he ran towards you "omg Berry there you are " he kneeled down to the dog and pet it, you watched them with smile "hello!" You said and he turned his head to you "oh hello! I'm sorry about my dog he's just very playful " "oh no it's fine! I love dogs" you petted Berry "I'm Y/N btw! " " Nice to meet you! I'm Chan" you both smiled "so you're enjoying night sweeping too?" You turned to him " oh no I just like to relax on beach at night, I don't really swim" "oh is that so " you nodded and he continued to pet his dog, you couldn't help but noticed how handsome he is , he has very nice face features and you liked his hair too. "hello?" He called out, you didn't even realize you were staring! "Oh hi" you said and he laughed "you good? " You laughed too " yeah I was just looking at um" you tried thinking of something fast " you're hair? It looks really nice" "ah thank you I like urs too" you blushed "oh thanks it's nothing special really " (why would you say that!?) You said to yourself "anyways I need to get going it's getting pretty late" he got up and you did too "oh ok " "do you wanna exchange numbers?" He smiled at you and you smiled back "sure!" You exchanged then numbers and he left leaving you alone again "well that was something" you smiled to yourself and look at sky again, you couldn't stop smiling 🍎

You always wanted a cat but you couldn't get one since you don't have enough space in ur little apartment, so you cure your cat addiction by going to the cat cafe every now and then. It's sure not like having ur own cat but it helps :). Today was one of those days, Saturday afternoon with no cat to cuddle at home but a cat cafe nearby, you put on ur favorite outfit and put some make up on cuz you have to impress the cats 😍, you left ur apartment with excitement written all over ur face , it took you 15 minutes to get there but it was worth it! You entered the cafe and ordered iced Americano and sat by your table ready for cat to come to you. Your drink came but still no cat, you got inpatient and took one kitten that you've been watching and waiting to come to you for the past 5 minutes and start cuddling with her "hi baby! You are so cute!" You said and cuddles her, she was white kitten with beautiful and soft fur. All of a sudden you spotted man sitting on the floor cuddling a cat besides you, you were confused cuz you haven't noticed him yet but you didn't really care anyway so you just continue to cuddle ur cat and drink ur drink. The man suddenly started petting the cat you were holding and you looked down at him "excuse you?" He looked at you confused "yes?" "Can't you see I'm petting her now? You can get your time when I leave " you said and moved away from him, he then got up "what if I want to let her now?" He asked and you turned to him " well too bad then " you smiled and continue petting the kitten "yah!" I ignored him and he sat next to me "I'm talking to you " " I'm sorry! I'm quite busy here" you said and he took kitten away from you "yah!" He laughed and you frowned but tried keeping it cool by sipping ur drink "I'm Minho btw " the guy said, you rolled ur eyes before answering "I'm Y/N" he nodded "do you have cats at home?" " No,that's why I come here" you answered "I have three cats and I love them " " that's beautiful Minho but can I have my kitten back?" He smirked at you "you can if you give me your number " "whatever" you gave him ur number and he gave you his then you both continue to cuddle kittens 😍

It was typical Sunday morning, you were very bored and all ur friends were busy doing smth that doesn't require you :), then you thought to yourself "Hm should I gym today?" You answered to your own question with a simple yes, who knows? You might even find gym crush if you look close enough. You put on ur gym clothes and take ur gym bag and ofc the new water bottle with little pigs on it to remind you that you're a human. You walked to the gym area and got ready for work out, then you realized you forgot your headphones..since that was biggest mistake you could possible do you decided to stop being dramatic and start working out. You are just about to lift the weight when all of a sudden you saw masculine guy doing his thing beside you, you couldn't stop starting he was definitely not a snack...HE WAS WHOLE DAMM MEAL. You thought if perfect plan to get his attention by "dropping" ur water bottle, the man saw the water bottle and chuckled, you pretended not to notice but you were dying inside, he came to you and tapped you on the shoulder, you turned around and smiled "I think you dropped this" he handed you ur bottle and u smiled back " thank you! I was just looking for that" he laughed a bit "I'm changbin btw" the way he said it was so attractive oh god "im Y/N, nice to meet you" you both just kept smiling and looking around " so uh can I get ur number? You seem pretty cool" ur eyes widen "m-my number?" You were so happy "yeah if that's ok" he smiled awkwardly "yeah! Totally " you gave him ur number and he gave you His "I'll go back to work now" he laughed "yeah me too" you laughed too and you guys continue to work out

Hello you mrs. dramatic butt older head sneezy lefty eyebag 😅
Sheeeeeeesh I feel attacked now too! Is this because I said you a meany head for not spoiling things 🤣
I woke up with a runny nose. I think I'm getting another cold but I hope not. So today I'm just taking it easy and gonna watch some shows I need to catch up on.
How about you? How is your day so far?
Does that mean that next year, you guys will get a plastic tree instead??
Hahahaha when you said you look shiny, I imagined the Mr. Clean commercial where his bald head sparkles. 🤣🤣
You're corny 🙄🤣 just kidding. Speaking of pasta, maybe that's what happened to Yelena.. she was so upsetti for not finding Natasha, so she had spaghetti. Then.. it grew into an addiction and she pasta way...🤔
Okay okay, songs that remind me of summer.. like I said, thinking of summer, it brings me back to working or bbqing.. oh even camping. So let's see..and since I can't add them as a link, I'll just list them:
1. We Can't Stop by Miley Cyrus
2. 23 by Miley Cyrus
3. Wrecking Ball by Miley Cyrus
That's a lame list ahahaha but it's because when I used to work at Wendy's, I had this coworker who would always come in and sing Miley Cyrus songs. So when were just cleaning in the back, we would play the songs and sing along to it 😅
I don't think we really talked about genre of music before. But I'm the same way.. although I can tolerate those screaming rock metal genres.
Hahaha oh boy, so you don't know how to flirt and are oblivious to people flirting with you? So that applies to online too? Or just in person?
But I shouldn't make fun, apparently I am the same way. Well, I don't know when people are flirting with me until it's too late. I'm usually shy at first, so I don't flirt much. But once I am comfortable around someone I like, I flirt with them.
Okay, so let's say 3 songs from when you were a teenager.
Then next question is 3 songs that you would play on repeat when you are sad/angry.
-CuriousGeorge
Hello hello righty eyebag!
Wait, u call me older head? Am i older than u? I remember u r in ur 30s too but who is older? U or me? I'm 35. U dont have to say the number ,u can just says who is older.🤭😆
Haha well, i can be meany head or sweet n nice head. U choose 😅🤣
U wanna know some spoilers of The Monsters Within? Okay.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
JUST KIDDING!got u!! No spoilers policy..😅🤣🤣
Oh no! I hope u r not catching a cold. It will be suck if u got sick on christmas while u r working.
No, i dont think we will have plastic tree. This is actually thr first time i hv allergies on the pine tree. I googled it may takes sometimes for allergies to christmas tree to develop. So we'll see next year how it is. Also i forgot to answer ur question. Yes, my husband n i lived together first for like 2 years. 😊
My day is okay. Busy. Been cleaning the house so we will come home to a clean house.
Omg, im not bald. How dare u! 🤣🤣 i meant my hair is thin but im not bald.lol.
Oh dear lord, u n ur puns. 🤣🤣 pasta-way, thats corny pun.🤣 i literally had to put down my phone n hold my forehead n shake my head after i read that pharagraph about yelena.😅
Oh okay.no wonder ur 3 songs of summer are all miley cyrus. 😅 i was like dang girl r u a fan of her or something? 😅
Yeahi dont know how to flirt. Im an awkward shy person. N i didnt know if i flirt. Few days ago, H kinda comment that i kinda flirt on the asks after she read my asks conversation. I was like "really? Did i? I didnt know" 😅 so i guess my obliviousness applies on online too. Lol.
Ah i see, yeah im like u too. I may not talk much but if i got comfortable or the other person talk enough n fun, i can talk a lot more or even wont shut up. N flirt with out realizing it, obviously.🤣
Hmm songs that reminds my teenager era probably all songs from backstreet boys, nsync, britney spears. 😅
Songs that i wil repeat when im angry is this whole album:
Songs that i repeat whn im sad, i cant pick it. I will just randomly search sad playlist on spotify. 😅 or sometimes listen to classical opera songs.
What about u?
Also have u ever think that some songs r sexy / hv a sexy vibe?
Next questions?
Cheerio!

Hey how’ve you been :)
Omg hi!! I didn't even think anyone still remembered this blog, lol. Thank you for keeping up with me and checking in, I really appreciate it! ♥
I've been doing pretty well these days, but I'm still a bit busy with my summer job. Other than that, I've been working on a few of the reactions and oneshots in my drafts, so hopefully, they'll see the light of day soon. Unfortunately, I didn't get into the university that I wanted, so I'm going to study at a different one in my city this year and try again next June. I thought I'd be really sad about "failing", but honestly? I could really use some time to relax a bit, so I'll take it, lol. Besides, I'll most likely have more time to write fics again, so I'm excited about that as well :)
Oh!! I also bought the A and Z versions of the new Ateez album!! I can't wait for them to get here already. Who knows, maybe I'll share with you all my photocard pulls once I get to open them :)
But what about you, anon? How have you been? I hope this summer's been nothing but amazing for you ♥

I just found out that it's actually going to be a show omg 😭 I looked at all the trainees and they're so young oh my gosh my friend jokingly (or not) said she wanted to drive the youngest home from school and stop to get ice cream on the way jfjsjsms I'm assuming it'll be some sort of a survival show but I haven't looked into the details but I'm EXCITED 🤩 I've missed K and Taki and Nicholas and EJ so much!! Although I'm wondering if they'll even be on the show since they are guaranteed spots?? Either way I can't wait to have my heart ripped out 🥰🥰 and honestly upper side dreamin' is such a VIBE I really love it 🤩 I can't wait for their new comeback!! It's going to be awesome!!
I cant wait to check out your works!! The spiderman fic sounds so great jdjejjeb and even tho the enha brainrot is really bad lmk pls keep me on the tag list for your other accts too!! Since I don't check my feed hardly ever anymore, my notifs are my source of what's going on! I don't wanna miss out on anything by our talented Alice!!

ALSO YES I DID !! i’m rlly glad k, ej, taki, and nicholas are fixed members bc i don’t want them to have to go through all that stress of fighting for a spot in the group again 😭😭 since it’s a survival show it would be kinda cool if the four fixed members had “teams” that they trained or mentored or something :o also i’m excited for enha’s comeback too!! did you see the concept pics? 😵‍💫 they had my head SPINNING

prev robul anon here thank you sm for your reply! you are so big-brained🥺 love your interpretation of their relationship so much!! and bul x nyo ro has so much potential omg!! can't wait to read whatever you have planned for them <3
OH MY GOD 🥹🥹🥹🥹 no, thank YOU!!!!! Wjrurjrjrjr I'm glad you like my interpretation of them cause they live in my head rent free at this point!!! They do!!!!! I love them so much!!!! Nyo Ro is the loml
i have a lot of stuff planned for them, but I haven't even started outlining the stories so uh. Yeah it'll probably take some time (and I have a million other ideas too), plus the fact that I am rather busy with life & school(summer cannot come quick enough!!!).
They're really important to me thought, (and I also made myself sad a bunch of times when thinking about them lol), so i will try to write a lot about them!!! They're not even my main ship for Ro but like. God I have been thinking about them so much lately!!!!

Dead Beat
Green: but yeah I'm betting his date is a necromancer, or possibly someone who will die before they can bang
Orange: ohohohoho
Orange: who is this man's date
Green: the bookstore assistant
Green: magic bookstore
Orange: shoot
Orange: i don't remember them
Orange: hopefully it's a horrible thing for him though
Green: yeah
Orange: harry needs to suffer
Green: I don't really remember his sister's circumstances, but I'm kind of hoping it's secretly his sister?
Green: huh
Green: harry definitely has a sibling thing going on
Orange: ooo
Orange: ooo wait
Orange: hmmmmmm
Orange: well i won't say anything o3o
Green: lol do you want the rundown on everything I know about his sister?
Orange: go on
Green: OK so when his dad died he got adopted by an evil wizard named dustin
Green: and, he started dating his sister
Green: and later he found out that his sister and dustin were conspiring to sacrifice him for some kind of dark magic ritual
Green: so he kills them both, I think
Green: or something
Orange: hmm
Orange: the dark backstory
Green: and then in Summer Knight she shows up and she's like "hey harry I'm alive, and also working for someone evil, no comment on if I'm still doing the dark magic shit tee hee"
Green: and I can't remember who she's working for but I think he found out
Orange: shoot i may have completely forgotten if that's his sister or no
Green: foster sister
Orange: oh
Orange: yes
Green: same way dustin isn't his real dada
Orange: but dustin was his daddy 😉
Orange: ehaeuadheuhueaheuhueh
Green: not biologically related, and I'm not clear on the timeline so it's possible they met after that special age
Orange: right
Orange: i'm not clear either
Orange: dresden files books usually go in order but some of them like the compilations of short stories interspersed are more, spotty in the timeline business
Green: anyways, and what's going down in this book I'm on now, dead beat, is fairy necromancy shit, which is both of what his sister is involved in, I think
Green: and she has a history of trying to seduce secrets out of dresden
Green: so I'm thinking, it's kind of possible that this book lady is her
Orange: hmmm
Orange: welllll
Orange: i don't remember
Green: I'd say like 30% chance
Orange: but i would say you are smart for suspecting it
Orange: you gotta have doubts for any girl dresden is around
Green: maybe more like 20%
Orange: the boys are good actually
Orange: but the girls are dangerous
Green: the odds she's a necromancer are much higher tbh
Orange: probably
Green: he knows there's 6 in town, and by my count he's only encountered 5
Green: unless a ghoul counts, which, probably not
Orange: dead beat is a great book
Orange: fantastic
Green: really?
Orange: omg
Orange: it has some
Green: I'm excited then
Orange: really killer stuff in it
Orange: hot dang
Green: nice
Orange: is uh
Orange: sword bro in it
Orange: you know sword bro
Orange: hates harry
Green: not yet, I don't think?
Green: oh yeah that guy
Orange: has a hate boner for harry at all times
Orange: idk his name
Orange: but he is, in my opinion, also a good boy
Green: no, but harry has said in this book that if he encounters sword bro, sword bro will probs attack on sight since harry has a demon brand
Orange: a demon br-
Orange: is it a coin
Green: he touched a coin yeah
Orange: YEAH WE HAVE
Green: like a book or two ago
Orange: PENNY IN YOUR THOUGHTS, HARRY????
Orange: ahahhahaha i've wanted to make that joke for ages
Green: lol
Orange: ok so harry has coin girl in his head, and that's like, very good and all
Orange: and it's good
Orange: it can only lead to good things
Green: I don't know about a girl
Green: rn it's mostly fire
Orange: well like, wait
Orange: usually when you touch a denariaua you get like, a friggin
Orange: demon taking over sorta deal?
Orange: like they tempt you right
Orange: am i wrong here, is it just fire
Orange: i better not be freaking spoiling you
Orange: gosh darnit
Orange: it's been ages since i've read the early books i don't remember anything T_T
Orange: hearing you summarize is pulling up jumbled clusters of lore but not putting it in order
Green: it's just fire atm
Green: doesn't seemlike that much of a spoiler
Orange: oh wait he isn't like
Orange: holding around the coin
Orange: he's got it stored away right
Green: no
Green: can't remember?
Orange: yeah so probably explains it's just fire for now, maybe temptation later
Orange: idk knowing harry he probably buried it somewhere
Green: he just touched it for like half a second
Orange: and put concrete on it
Orange: well yeah but the coins don't need more than a half second to do changes in the brainges
Green: yeah
Orange: like he got fire from it, who knows where that coin has been
Green: hence fire
Orange: probably should get checked for rabies
Green: he mentioned what he did with itt
Green: what is with harry and hot siblings
Orange: well
Orange: harry isn't so bad looking himself...
Orange: he's just ugly in comparison to hot sibs
Green: I just put on top coat so I can't read so well
Orange: top..coat?
Green: clear nail polish which protecs the real nail polish
Green: probably should not be gotten on pages
Orange: ahhh makes sense
Green: cant type so well either but easier than reading
Green: so rn I'm basically pacing in my room thinking abt dresden files lol
Green: I like the mui mysterioso white council necromancers
Green: theres also a necromancer who hates dresden and he's like "who tf are you"
Green: I think it's gotta be kravos or dustin
Green: like, a zombie version
Green: and I think maybe dresden killed kravos' ghost so it has to be dustin?
Green: can't think of other necromancers who hate harry
Green: update: coin girl has appeared literally 2 pages later
Green: and she said he put the coin in concrete under his basement
Orange: aauaaua
Orange: HAAHAAHA
Orange: I WAS SO SCARED I SPOILT U
Orange: so now harry has a tulpa ouo
Orange: except they probably already exist as a separate sort of supernatural entity in his world
Orange: soo hm
Orange: i think dustin was like a big time necro and harry's just too much of a goody two shoes so they have to respect the fact that this freaking nutso powerhouse wizard is in the city they're planning to do mischeif in
Green: yeah likeI said it wasn't m cuh of a spoiler
Green: harry kissed book girl and she seems like a good person so I'm thinking either she's mui mysterioso white council lady or she's gonna die soon
Green: probably the former
Orange: hmm
Orange: hopefully both
Orange: i'd dig that
Green: mui mysterioso white council necromancer lady, I mean
Orange: ohoho
Orange: i actually don't know who this chick is
Green: also I bet mui mysterioso white council necromancer guy is his dad
Orange: wait is harry a greycoat
Green: his wizard, non-evil dad
Green: ebeneezer scrooge
Green: dad #3
Orange: ebenezer is the best dad a man can ask for
Orange: he is also based
Orange: and you'll find what he's based on soon hopefully
Green: if I'm right about dustin being the zombie, that's all three of his "dead beat" dads in one book
Orange: OHHHHHH
Orange: OHHHHHHHHHHHH
Orange: I DIDNT
Orange: GET THAT PUN
Orange: FSFHSFSHFSFHSFh
Green: in a recentish book I found out he's the white council dark magic wet work guy
Orange: i hope you're right
Orange: i thought it was just the simple
Orange: dead beat, he's a PI on a 'beat' about dead things
Green: (a couple chapters ago he talked to his dead dad #1 in a dream)
Orange: awwwwwwwwww
Orange: his pops is also based
Orange: based illusionist
Green: idk what a greycoat is
Green: so, maybe
Orange: ah
Orange: probs not then
Orange: hopefully he bonds nicely with his new comrades
Green: if you mean white council dark magic wetwork guy then no
Orange: are you talking about
Orange: the BLACKSTAFF
Orange: =u=
Green: uh, I'm talking about dad #3
Orange: yes, ebenezer
Orange: he's the blackstaff
Orange: his wetwork staff is black
Green: ah! yeah
Orange: he can unleash some fresh hell that boy
Orange: fresh and piping hot hell
Orange: do they tell stories about the satellite yet
Orange: or are you not there yet
Green: OK yeah actually I'm super thinking kumori (mui mysterioso white council necromancer lady) is bookg girl
Orange: mmmm
Green: never heard of a satellite
Orange: ok
Orange: well when you hear about it, again, fresh hell
Orange: i mean i guess the vampire war is only just begun here right
Green: bc Harry tellsbook girl his plan and they kiss (!!!) and she talks abt responsibility and he's like "huh never heard someone without great power talk abt responsibility like that"
Orange: ahahahahahhahahaha
Orange: freaking jim butcher amirite
Green: and as soon as he leaves, Kumori shows up like "Hey dresden I'm going to need you to leave town before you do some incredibly stupid shit
Green: oh he didn't phrase it like that
Green: and yeah they kiss and she's like "I only kissed you bc it's been so long since I got any" and he's like "same"
Green: book girl, I mean, not kumori
Green: unless they're the same person, in which case, uh, yeah
Orange: hahahahahaha
Green: l love all this mysterious identity stuff
Green: its so fun trying to guess which characters are which
Green: and now I'm pretty dang confident book girl isn't his hot sister
Green: bc she seemed like a kind of good person
Green: sword bro just showed up lol
Green: dresden calls in the wardens so it's not a huge surprise
Green: morgan
Orange: hmmm
Orange: ahahaha
Orange: MORGAN
Orange: that's sword bro's name
Orange: i like him
Green: yeah me too
Green: l love how much he despises harry
Green: they just gave him a gray cloak
Green: so l think that might have something to do with what you were talking about
Green: HIS NAME IS DONALD???
Green: Donald Morgan…
Green: and now she's making him the wizard chief of police?
Green: geeze
Green: oh!!!!
Green: book girl is coin girl
Green: that's surprising
Green: good twist, very good twist
Orange: ehehehe
Orange: heheehehehe
Orange: aahahahahaa i keep
Orange: accidentally spoiling things
Orange: that happen in this exact book
Orange: darnit
Green: lol
Orange: if you hear anything about satellites let me know
Green: l guess like you said it's a book a lot happensin
Green: oh yeah, apparently a couple books ago l found out that dad #3 called down a satellite to kill a bunch of vamps
Green: and also apparently some vamps went batshit (heh) and broke all the rules to get back at the council
Orange: HAAHAHA
Orange: finally
Orange: that's the good stuff right there
Orange: do you see the fresh hell this man can raise
Orange: this is a powerful man
Orange: maybe
Orange: maybe one day, harry can have war stories of his own
Green: l mean he kinda already does right?
Orange: well yeah
Green: there was that time he died and teamed up with his own ghost
Green: that was cool as heck
Orange: but he isn't making nasa mad right
Green: lol no
Orange: he's not at the cosmic scale of fresh hellraising
Orange: not yet
Orange: actually idk if he'll ever be as good as dad#3
Orange: i feel like the author sorta respects how he does power scaling? so much older talented wizards beat young talent hands down
Orange: because those are the ones that survived to be that old and accrued more power and knowledge
Orange: so i feel like harry may do mr blackstaff proud but, you know, not surpass him. Not without serious help i reckon
Green: yeah that makes sense
Green: also he made out with book girl a little more before banishing her to the depths of his twisted mind
Orange: eheheheheheheehaehehaehahehahe
Orange: the temptation
Orange: such a freaking, based thing
Orange: and you know, he's fRIENDS WITH MICHAEL
Orange: HE HAS A DEMON IN HIS HEAD
Green: lol
Orange: HOW WILL HE TELL MICHAEL
Green: yeah that's going to be fun
Orange: imagine, he tells him, and michael just freaking kills him
Orange: just lops his head off
Orange: end of dresden
Green: you know l bet he could ask michael for an exorcism
Green: l think he thinks he has it under control tho
Green: bc he's an IDIOT
Orange: it wouldn't be half bad right, but idk. Michael gives denarians the opportunity to repent and all, but he doesn't succeed a lot of the time
Orange: he is SO STUPID
Orange: I LOVE HOW DUMB HARRY IS
Green: yeah!!!
Orange: HES A DETECTIVE BUT HIS IQ IS 2
Green: hahaha exactly
Orange: like i get it though, he sees it's a problem but just like
Orange: he's got a lot of problems!
Green: yeah
Orange: Why care about this one in particular!
Orange: On the backburner
Orange: bet he feels his back burning
Green: and earlier he's like "who's this zombie guy who really hates me and looks hella familiar?"
Green: "eh, it'll keep
Green: "l doubt it's all that important"
Orange: HAHAHA
Orange: he never learns
Orange: and he always solves problems the dumb way
Green: oh lol the t-rex skeleton has been mentioned thrice now
Orange: and this actually isn't so bad if he survives right
Orange: he'll get a reputation for being an idiot 600 pound gorilla in your china shop
Orange: so be nice, yeah?
Green: and he just called the fairy in charge of all the predatory ghosts
Orange: be nice
Orange: THE FREAKING
Orange: HUNT
Orange: GET READY FOR THE GOOD STUFF
Green: l wonder if something will happen with the t rex skeleton
Orange: wow
Orange: why would you even
Orange: imply
Green: :thinking face:
Orange: insinuate
Orange: that something would ever happen with that
Orange: in a book about necromancers in chicago
Orange: i'm hurt, offended even
Green: hahahaha
Green: there's one in denver too
Green: but l think the denver one is fake so it doesn't get damaged, whereas earlier this book Harry made sure to point out that the one in chicago is the real deal
Green: aha, and now he just found the magic book everyone is looking for
Green: what a good idea
Orange: harry is incredibly smart and responsible
Green: "better summon the erl king so no one else can summon him first!"
Orange: yes!
Orange: he's very good!
Green: "better find that book that only l know how to find, so that no one else finds it on accident!"
Orange: did he ask bob anything weird as this goes down
Orange: or is that a different book
Green: jesus pesus harry if you'd just stayed out of it none of this would be happening!!!
Orange: or like, closer to the start
Green: bob got kidnapped
Green: uhhh IDK
Orange: NO POOR BOB
Orange: see idk how this story goes
Green: because bob was himmler's skull before he was dustin's (before he was harry's)
Orange: we have, interesting times ahead, you know
Orange: of course
Green: and when he remembers being himmler's skull he turns evil
Orange: ok so you've been introduced to Robert.
Orange: i'm calling evil bob robert
Green: but harry said "under no circumstances are you to remember that, even if someone orders you to"
Orange: i decided today, right now
Green: that's cute
Green: yeah l think that's v sensible
Orange: well harry used up his one brain cell ordering bob to not be evil
Orange: so you know the rest of the book is gonna be good while his brain cell recovers
Green: lol yeah exactly
Orange: you have only a handful of books to go before getting to Changes
Green: like 4
Orange: and like, that's a banger, and then bangers get more frequent down the line
Green: I got a ebox set
Green: 7-12, and changes is the last one
Orange: i don't remember how many bangers there were before Changes but that's because that book freaking changed the scale of what a banger is for the dresden files
Orange: changes is an appropriate finale to the set
Green: that and the fact it has a very different title from the previous 11 books made me think it might be important in some way
Orange: what with <rot13>JULQVQLBHPYVPXGUVF</rot13> dying and all
Green: l assume l shouldn't click that
Orange: gosh darnit
Orange: you took my dang joke without clicking it
Orange: it's safe to click
Green: lol
Green: huh
Green: mysterious necromancer zombie guy was a demon guy who harry defeated in the demon coin book
Green: l don't remember him at all lol
Orange: oh who is he
Green: ldk
Orange: is he the one with the tie
Green: snake man
Orange: oh
Green: he just dropped a ton of snakes on harry
Orange: yeah idk most of the coins
Orange: i just want
Green: l mean l think he's a coin guy?
Orange: coin puns from them
Green: "former Knight of the Order of the Blackened Denarius"
Orange: "if i had a nickel" "penny for your thoughts" etc etc
Green: hahaha
Green: he just said "Payback isa bitch" which is kind of coin-related, kinda
Orange: that's fair
Green: l don't know who this guy is but it's looking like this book isn't going to have 3 dads in it
Green: maybe it'll only have 1
Green: which is such a bummer for the book titled "Dead Beat"
Orange: one can only hope for as many dads as possible
Orange: but actually
Orange: for a book named dead beat...
Orange: isn't no dads appropriate
Green: l guess?
Green: but there should be more dad themes
Green: l mean it's cool that dad #1 showed up for his first ever appearance
Green: l was hoping for dad #2 as well
Green: maybe mui mysterioso white council necromancer guy will be dad #2? that'd be interesting
Orange: you got a dream of biodad, you got a uhh, you got the necro dad's crew sliding in, and dad number three is probably dropping fresh hell on vamps rn
Green: wait, no it wouldn't
Green: necro dad wasn't even part of the crew, right? he was just on the wardens and when they confiscated all of himmler's stuff he was like "mama mia check out all this great necromancy stuff; l've gotta learn me some of that!"
Orange: i don't remember that, i mean
Orange: necros are barely a crew, they just want the same thing
Orange: and once they see it they'll probably turn on one another
Green: yeah, but l mean, he was kind of a small fry right?
Orange: mmmaaayybe
Green: yeah yeah
Orange: prob
Orange: i mean he got killed by a teenage dresden
Orange: who must have only just been growing his brain cell
Green: it seems to me like they were studying under the master himself, and dustin was just doing his best with the master's reminders and to do lists or w/e
Orange: fair
Green: …his name is justin
Green: not dustin
Orange: dustin dumourne
Orange: dudu
Green: hm ok
Green: so l guess when harry dies, it's going to be doing the right thing and alone
Green: l wonder if these moment-of-death prophecies/curses are in some way foreshadowing how his death is going to be important
Orange: I bet he will just do a nuke
Orange: Or if he gets powerful, do a mass extinction event
Green: just kill literally every vampire
Orange: Lol just eradicate a whole vampire court
Orange: Or all of them except tommyboy
Green: a progenitor curse on an important demon
Green: bc it seems like the red ones might be of demonic descent in some way
Green: and the white ones definitely are
Orange: Huh, didn't have that lore in my memory
Orange: That is kinda smart
Green: and who cares about the black ones since l think there's basically one
Green: and he might have dealt with her already by that time
Green: omg
Green: omg he just said that the white council only prohibits using necromancy on humans
Green: ong
Green: omg l think l know where this is going
Green: OMG YES
Green: HES DOING IT
Green: THE ABSOLUTE MADMAN
Green: also Cowl (mui mysterioso white council necromancer guy) said that he was the only one of the necromancers who thought dresden could actually contain the erlking, and kumori said Cowl respects harry
Green: so yeah l'm thinking maybe he's definitely dad #3
Green: or maybe…just maybe…Morgan?
Green: l mean that's a long shot
Green: Morgan seemed pretty into the whole "dark magic is super evil and only for evil people" thing
Green: and it didn't seem like he had a subtle bone in his entire body
Green: heh, bone
Green: but…maybe
Green: 5% chance
Green: and if it is him, l'll feel like a genius
Green: l mean, l'll feel super disappointed, because what a dumb twist that would be
Green: boss lady is shit talking morgan, and Morgan stomps up and start shit-talking harry to warden boss lady and turns around and sees harry and the dinosaur standing there
Green:
"Yeah," I told Luccio, and my voice was the only dry thing about me. "I see what you mean."
Green: what the FUCK does this mean???
Green:
I snorted. "Second one we'll hit calls himself Cowl. He's good. I've never seen a wizard stronger than he is, and that includes Ebenezar McCoy."
Green: l wonder if this is foreshadowing in some way
Green: Cowl is taking orders from Bob
Green: by which I mean, Bob
Green: and not Robert
Green: because he's faking!!!
Green: ha! l knew it
Green: l'm a fuckign genius
Green: Ok so apparently Cowl might've just been some random guy? He sure didnt get unmasked
Green: I bet he's still alive
Orange: man why is discord not notifying me
Orange: fkjsgoijedog
Green: I guess it's still possible for him to be Ebenezer, but at the end he seemed pretty evil compared to Ebenezer
Green: But he's definitely in the Senior Council
Orange: oh yeah
Orange: i don't remember who cowl is
Orange: idk if he's even been revealed
Green: He set up a huge double cross on the council, killing hundreds of wizards
Green: Also he tried to become a death god
Orange: oh is that the guy
Orange: nice
Orange: it'd be really dope if it were ebenezer
Green: It would
Orange: but idk, ebenezer is strongly principled even as the wetwork guy
Green: His thing was he wanted to become god of death in order to end death once and for all
Orange: ooohohoho
Orange: noble intentions
Green: At least, that's what the late Kumori seemed to think
Orange: noble intentionssss
Orange: the hero chicago deserves
Green: Yeah!
Orange: though probably wouldn't mean a lack of senescence
Orange: probably would be people decaying into an eternity of suffering as skin and bone eventually
Green: Oof
Green: Yeah that seems plausible
Orange: though i'd hope if you put a body in a blender you'd be able to cease consciousness even if the individual cells are alive
Orange: also an end of death in general? Cutting your steak from a cow that won't die....
Green: If I were him I'd be looking at half vampirism
Orange: yeah
Orange: but he might want to be an altruist
Orange: and save more than himself
Green: But if they need human blood specifically then it's not very scalable
Orange: yeah it ain't
Green: No that's what I mean
Orange: oh haha
Green: If everyone is a half vampire then that might be better than everyone dying
Green: But I cant remember what their requirements are
Orange: yeah idk about that one
Orange: there aren't too many easy tickets to immortality that don't involve soul crushing changes to how you operate
Green: If they just need animal blood then it's a super good idea modulo dying if they ever kill someone
Green: So that would be the angle I'd work
Orange: i mean this is a world where merlin is a thing
Orange: so the grail, philosopher's stone, elixir of life
Orange: one could write in an avenue towards the goal that readers may already assume exists in the world
Green: Yeah, but, those must have drawbacks right?
Orange: hmm
Green: I mean maybe not
Orange: hmmMm
Orange: uncertain
Orange: but it'd be cool if it did
Orange: no free lunch
Green: Oh yeah
Green: I think a story about finding the grail or w/e and trying to work around its bs would be cool
Green: I'm just saying, if I personally had Cowl's goals, I'd be pursuing a solution to the downsides of vampirism, not trying to become a death god
Orange: right right
Orange: manufacture synthetic blood
Orange: though it'd suck if harry progenitorcursed-away vampirism when he had those plans
Orange: you'll see when you get to the book Final Solution how he handles the vamps
Green: Figure out a way to stop people from succumbing to their hunger so that the whole plan isn't insanely dangerous
Green: LOL
Orange: i'm sorry i had to
Orange: the idea of vamp genocide is fun
Orange: genocide? kinocide?
Orange: kinocide
Orange: because they have kin
Green: Genocide seems appropriate
Orange: not all vamps have babby
Orange: some have, well, bite-babby
Green: Yeah I guess but they use the same words for it
Green: I mean, they use incredibly archaic words for it
Green: But that's just because they're old
Orange: hehehehe
Orange: i believe, magically speaking
Orange: when a vamp bites another vamp, and they turn into a full vamp, that's their offspring?
Orange: otherwise progenitor curse wouldn't work right
Green: Right
Green: I mean, we don't even know that such a curse exists
Green: Well, I don't
Green: Maybe you do
Orange: well why wouldn't it
Green: IDK, I think it could
Orange: Curses exist, using blood for curses exist, or hair, and surely familial ties count as a connection
Orange: hm, but then it'd be way too easy to kidnap a magician's family member and do a cursing
Green: But watch Harry say in the next book that comes out "ha, you'd think so, but killing someone using their family isn't possible, even for really dark magic" and then give some sort of sensible explanation
Orange: lol that'd be a thing wouldn't it
Orange: he'd go on to explain that science and magic aren't precisely the same and that isolating the genes that connect people to their family members is an ongoing area of research in cursology
Green: Hahaha
Orange: how fast are you reading these books
Orange: from what i can see it's a pretty brisk pace
Green: So, I'm a little bit BSing here, but I think that part of the idea with the primogeniture curse is that if your parents had never existed, you wouldn't be around. So it would be a one-way type deal, and probably need a lot of power
Orange: wait
Orange: so you'd need a parent or you'd need a kid?
Green: Like in the porn one there was a lady doing a bunch of bad luck curses and she needed to do them at certain times
Green: You'd need a parent
Orange: hmmm
Orange: hMMMM
Orange: HMMMMMM
Orange: yeah i get it, makes more sense if it's a parent
Green: Also just dramatically makes more sense. Cant deal with the demon who created all vampires using some dark magic and a random vamp, but if you had him at your mercy and a heck of a lot of dark magic, you could probably do a vampicide
Green: A hemocide
Green: Ah and to answer you question, I read the first 5 and a half over the course of three days, I read the rest of #6 a few months later, and I finished #7 today
Green: So uh, either pretty dang quickly, or pretty dang slowly, depending on your point of view
Green: Since, it's taken me like 6 months to read 7 of them
Green: But 3 days to read 5 of them
Orange: hmmm
Orange: yeah if you uh
Orange: continue to talk to me about what you read
Orange: i enjoy it
Orange: because i remember VERY LITTLE except for whatever lore is needed for future reference
Orange: i started reading the dresden files when i was a wee babby
Orange: by this i mean, when i was a college freshman
Orange: a fresh man, if you will
Green: Yeah, I also read 1-4 a million years ago
Green: So I read them again to catch up
Orange: hahahaha
Green: And, yeah, I love talking about what I'm reading! I'll definitely keep giving you all my really good predictions
Orange: yeah i love them actually
Green: I'm pretty disappointed I was so wrong about book girl
Orange: you win some you lose some
Green: Yeah
Green: oh I'd forgotten about Gatekeeper
Green: so, yeah, I guess there's 3 suspects for the identity of Cowl - Gatekeeper, Ebenezer, and Merlin
Green: I'm changing my guess to Gatekeeper
Green: oh and Injun Joe
Green: I don't think it's Injun Joe
Green: and I think he has an alibi
