Hi! I think about the world you've built so frequently... it's so rich and vibrant. Do you still take RO asks? If not, I'm so sorry and will keep mum from now on!

If so, I'd love to know how the ROs would react to someone hurting the MC in an effort to hurt the RO? Like, making the RO pay by hurting MC?

Hi! I love RO asks. I've just been less on Tumblr the last month or so because its my busy time here with my family. Holidays and birthdays are crazy for us this time of year. :)

I can tell you none of the RO's would react well at all.

Hazel: Oh, our dear, sweet Hazel. One of her enemies was hurting MC to get to her? Beware anyone in the surroundings. Hazel would bring down hell. In fact, the firey pits of hell would arise, the ground would split and rumble beneath her feet, and Hazel personally would rip the spine from the person who hurt MC. She would then promptly take a tonic to forget what she had done.

Gabriel: There would be an "accident" on the way to the prison. No one would ever know what happened to the person but Gabriel would suddenly take an interest in new areas of the market that have construction. And if once that construction project was done, people kept hearing screams come from beneath the concrete? I mean, that's normal. Right?

Belladonna: A public display of disembowelment would be in order. Right in the middle of a plaza. Where she would make an example of whoever dared to even look at the MC wrong.

Malcolm: He would wait. He would follow the person around. Find out their routine. Their family. Then, he would let that person know that he knows exactly where each person they loved is. Where they live. Where they work. What they like to eat. And let the person know, if they do not leave the Night Market now, he will go after each and every one of them.

Milo: He is the most straight forward of them all. He wouldn't try to hide it. The second he saw someone go after the MC, he would pull that knife he keeps hidden in his book, gut the guy, and then open a gateway into the void to shove them in there so they would take their last breath, falling through nothing.

#hazel is the scariest character in the game barring gabriel’s dad (he’s terrifying in a different way) tbh and that’s a compliment #this would not be the scariest thing she’s done 👀 #I see now however that the apple does not fall far from the tree fjsjs #The Night Market #Hazel #Gabriel #Belladonna #Malcolm #Milo #queue

[Video ID: The video shows two women singing on a boat, taking turns. The woman on the right is Sofia Adriana, she starts singing a traditional Spanish song often hummed while baking bread, called Panadera. Then the woman on the left , Palestinian Singer “Terez Sliman”, follows by singing the Palestinian song 'Ya Talleen Al Jabal'. Both women show harmony and synchronization in their singing, clapping their hands on the boat to create music.]

"Ya Tall’een Al Jabal " - "يا طالعين الجبل" , a song from the Palestinian heritage was sung by Palestinian women in coded language to their imprisoned husbands and relatives in British prisons during the 1936 revolution to tell them resistance fighters would soon free them, while disguising words with the letter "L.". While "Panadera" in the Spanish language means baker, it is a traditional Spanish song that women sang during the baking process. The movement of the hands in rhythm represents the baking process.

"يا طالعين الجبل" أغنية من التراث الفلسطيني كانت تغنيها النساء الفلسطينيات عند زيارة الأسرى في سجون الإحتلال. كانت النساء يضفن حرف اللام بين مقاطع الأغنية للتمويه لإيصال رسالة للأسرى أنه الليلة سيقوم الفدائييون بتحريرهم.

باناديرا في اللغة الإسبانية تعني الخبّاز، هي أغنية تقليدية اسبانية كانت النساء تغنيها أثناء عملية الخبز. حركة اليدين في الإيقاع هو عملية الخبز فعليًا.

Sung by: Terez Sliman (to the left) | Sofia Adriana Portugal (to the right)

we really went from "women and girls can do anything" to im just a girl i only do girl math im a passenger princess i dont drive i dont eat i just do haha girl dinner im so sillyyyy i wear makeup bc i want to i also try and define all women into categories that are marketable omg what if we were just girls and we were so useless and helpless

#important #feminism #queue #I saw some people in the notes talking about how this was relatable in that esp now we’re overwhelmed and may not have the time/money to do #certain things (like cooking a proper meal etc.) and there’s nothing wrong with that (well there is but that’s a different discussion and #we’re all just trying to survive here) but that’s not a Gender thing that’s a general thing that people of many gender identities can relate #to. so labeling something as ‘girl math’ or ‘girl dinner’ etc and using the ‘GIRL’ part of that term to mean dumb or incompetent is backward #I’m not bad at math and cooking bc I’m a girl. I’m bad at math and cooking bc I’m dumb and never learned. respectively. #women are badass women are tired women can do anything women need help sometimes women are human #we come in so many forms and variations

i don't mean to sound ungrateful, but as a content creator on this site, there's a part of me that's like. they absolutely just stole my work.

i'm not, like, unaware that tumblr has been shuffling downhill for years now. sometimes i play with the idea of switching platforms, turning myself into the shark. i often get tens of thousands of notes - i could be "doing numbers" on a platform that actually pays me to do so. i could have statistics that i could use to sell myself, i could rebrand and make content pay-to-play and make brand deals. i could have the other life, i mean.

but i don't want to. i like the quiet nature of tumblr. i like that it still feels like i'm writing poetry, not like i'm fulfilling ad spots. i like the community, and that i can sometimes still take someone by surprise and write something that really speaks to them. i like the tags and reading things like oh of course it's fucking inkskinned i love you inkskinned you gay mess. my girlfriend recently told me that people tag things "inkskinned" because they assume it is similar to tagging "creative writing". that's wild. i made this word up when i was 19, and have always assumed people tag me in things so i read it (and i often do). i have nothing but love and gratitude for you all, for this tiny scoop of family.

and i haven't made any money off it. i had opportunities, and i turned them down. i could have sold this thing like a thousand times. i thought about moving my work elsewhere - over and over and over i thought about it. i weighed each option specifically. but my tumblr felt like ... it's for you guys, only. if you're still here and reading this, you deserve to do it for free.

tumblr has now, most likely, skimmed my work (and yours) in order to make money. i will never see a single cent for that violation. something about landlords, i guess - my work pays their rent.

i just lost my job on valentine's day, and am working on scrambling for solutions. i am writing this to a blog that they will probably scrape with AI. and like, what number to do you think it was? do you think it was only a couple hundred thousand? no way it was close to a million, right? my time, effort, energy - it belongs to someone else now. how many silver pieces for them to completely sell out their user base.

and it's kind of like - funny? when it isn't very-sad. because i personally don't know what to do, ya know? i might as well move to a different platform, where my efforts are ai-scraped but could eventually pay me. where i know my privacy is the cost - but it could result in actual money. anyway. i need to figure out how i'm paying for meds. i need to email like six people about COBRA benefits.

my work is powering someone else's AI. it will be a beautiful fabricated poem, made from words i've already said.

#!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #I’m so sorry :(

ROUND 3 MATCH 20

Jumin propaganda:

"insanely possessive rich business man :3 he may tie you up but who doesnt like that? hes such a nice guy after you break down his cold face !! also he has cat elizabeth the third and shes literally the light of my life. id marry jumin for that cat in an instant."

Luke propaganda:

“He is the mcs childhood friend. Became a secret agent and would do so much to protect the mc. He sings for her whenever she is scared.”

“Childhood friend ✅

Crazy emotional drama and horrific feelings of guilt ✅

The ability to kill people unthinkingly ✅

Doomed star-crossed romance ✅

SILLY SILLY GUY WHO IS SO SO SWEET and deserves the best :( ✅✅✅”

#LUKE PLEASE WIN FOR THE LOVE OF THEMIS YOU DESERVE IT #FRIENDS VOTE FOR YOUR BLORBO IN LAW #HE CRAFTED A RING FOR MC BEFORE THEY WERE EVEN DATING OR HAD REUNITED #CARVED AND POLISH THE GEMSTONE HIMSELF #HES GOOD WITH INVENTIONS!!

[bakageyama-s]

ROUND 3 MATCH 17

Fawn propaganda:

“The golden retriever boyfriend you've been searching for your whole life. An anxious bean who deals with his fear of people and crowds to support the player character in his quest to figure out what the hell is going on”

"So my adorable boy ran away when he was just little and has been living with his animal friends ever since. He's convinced he can speak to animals but also they don't always respond to what he's saying and his theory to explain this away is "they're in a rebellious phase" like an absolute dork. Everything he owns is things that people have lost down the river. He loves his collection.

The first night (might have been the second) he meets Raen (PC), he sees how hard Raen has had it and decides to show him that even if there are scary and bad things in the world, there is also beauty

Like the true golden retriever he is, he immediately imprints on Raen and is determined to help him in his journey. Even if that means that Fawn has to go back into civilization and face his fear of people. He's so scared to the point of anxiety attacks but he's strong with Raen by his side

Also my boy can sing. So well in fact that it gets them a free room at the inn for the night (thank God because forest boy and two cult survivors definitely don't have any money).

Also did I mention that he can cut a B if they're threatening Raen? This golden retriever has some hidden claws.

In conclusion, soft boy is soft, your honor, and you should vote for him"

Rafael propaganda:

“Rafael is the blacksmith and this dude really needs some rare ore so he can craft a legendary weapon. What an extreme nerd. He dislikes mushrooms, just like me. But he hates eggs, so we can never be together.”

#VOTE RAFAEL NOW #The Divine Speaker #Fawn #Rafael #Coral Island #Coral Island Rafael #polls #I WANT THAT TWINK OBLITERATED #(idk him sorry lol) #pls Rafael is so sweet and kind and has done nothing wrong in his life ever

ROUND 3 MATCH 26

Ais propaganda:

"He has large tits and cute pets and he’s fucking playful that will fight for you if anyone messes with you while desperately yearning for connection. he’s lonely yet confident and is funny and sweet and will protect you SO EVERYONE VOTE FOR AIS PLEASE"

Yuri propaganda:

“Yuri is the town doctor - she likes pastel hair, tattoos and playing pool!! She hates flowers. I love her.”

#Ais #TOUCHSTARVED #TOUCHSTARVED Ais #Yuri #Coral Island #Coral Island Yuri #polls #THIS IS HARD #ais makes me want to punch and kiss him at the same time and yuri is beautiful and wonderful and amazing and smart 😭 #won’t vote for now 🤡

[bakageyama-s]

ROUND 3 MATCH 27

Fogado propaganda:

No Fogado propaganda :(

Lae'zel propaganda:

“Every single Baldur’s Gate companion is deeply lovable and romanceable but listen. Lae’zel is so strong and cool and powerful. She thinks you’re sexy faster than anyone else. She’s a gruff, standoffish character who you can win over. She’s so talented. She’s even an alien. Look at her pretty ears and war paint. Date Lae’zel.”

#Lae’zel #BG3 #Fogado #Fire Emblem Engage #polls #idk who the other guy is but vote my gf!!!! #she’s scary and mean and loyal <3

[bakageyama-s]

ROUND 3 MATCH 21

Fane propaganda:

“Okay yes he starts off as quite pompous, but he goes through SOOO much growth over the course of the game.  He discovers his people have formed a force of world-devouring monsters and even though he still loves and sympathizes with them he acknowledges that the world he is currently in, the world that is YOUR home, is worthwhile and worth saving.  He is literally stuck in a world that is alien and foreign to him and with your help he sees that it has value and beauty. Solas Dragon Age WISHES he had what Fane has. Get yourself a skeleton man who will forsake his dying world for you because you taught him to see the beauty and wonder in life.”

Abigail propaganda:

“my wife who has a sword and eats rocks. are the stardew valley ROs boring and basic? kinda, but who cares, sdv is such a good game and I will protect abigail with my life”

"so around when you first meet her she can be pretty mean sometimes for no reason but ends up being a lot nicer!

she is a huge gamer and plays games with the farmer at one point! and talks about it a lot during their marriage.

she does a lot of odd jobs and stuff around the farm during her and the farmer's marriage! she is very self sufficient and pulls her weight unlike a few other marriage candidates lmao

she LOVES adventure and goes down into the mines to fight monsters and stuff! she has a spirit of adventure that doesn't leave even after marriage and mostly stays her own person which is amazing i think!

she canonically eats rocks what can i say"

#Fane #Divinity 2 #Abigail SDV #Stardew Valley #Divinity: Original Sin 2 #Fane DOS2 #polls #SORRY ABIGAIL I BONED THE BONE MAN #I hope you win but also I gotta vote for my dumb smart bf with an IQ of 300 and an emotional IQ of 0 #he’s literally so funny pls 💀 (<- him)
