WHAT'S CAMPUS APOCALYPSE....

I'M SO GLAD YOU ASKED Campus Apocalypse (also known as Gakuen Datenroku) is an Evangelion spinoff manga!!! It has 4 volumes and 22 chapters, and it's basically an AU series with an action-y shonen feel to it.

It retains a lot of the cast and some elements from the anime, but for the most part does its own thing with the lore! Instead of piloting giant robots, the kids fight angels using these magic-y weapons (Shinji has a gun, for example), and the angels themselves are very different from the main series too. It can be odd at times, but it's a pretty fun and interesting take on the series imo!

The plot gets a little wild at times and the ending is sadly pretty rushed (I think it got cancelled?), but it's a fairly quick read and has enough neat concepts along the way that I feel it's worth checking out! :] (i am of course biased, but y'know)

What Personally makes me so fond of it is that it has more of the main 4 kids as friends, as well as features Kaworu as one of the main characters and introduces him right at the beginning! He gets to interact more with Rei and Asuka, as well as has more time with Shinji, and I really really love how his and Shinji's relationship is developed.

It's not as explicitly Romantic as in the anime (CA mostly focuses more on the friendships; there's some ship tease and it occasionally leans towards Shinji/Rei, but the romantic stuff is vague enough that you can see what you wanna see for the most part imo), but it's still very sweet and meaningful all the same. The development of their friendship is a significant part of the story, and it's not that hard to view it in a romantic light. It's like. Friends to lovers kawoshin. To me

IN SHORT: Campus Apocalypse has a different vibe from the anime and has some interesting stuff, but it may be just kind of average as a whole. BUT it does some specific things really well imo and said things are like catnip to me. If you too enjoy seeing the main four interacting and being friends and Shinji and Kaworu's relationship being able to take more time to develop, it may be worth checking out!

that feeling when you get advice from someone who you know is well-meaning and has good intentions....but it's just the most allistic, neurotypical, and/or abled advice you have ever heard and completely invalidates the point you're trying to make about why you struggle to do the thing in the first place.

they're telling you to "do it in this specific way that is completely opposite of how you physically/mentally work" for example, make eye contact/read people's facial expressions and intentions! but you're autistic. initiate verbal conversation and don't be shy! but you're nonverbal or semispeaking. get out of the house more and participate in these physical activities! but you're physically disabled. Just Be Yourself! but you have DID/OSDD/other personality disorder. etc.

i'm sorry. I know you're just trying to help. I appreciate it, really. but it's all things i've heard before and none of it helps me specifically. I have tried (maybe even still try out of habit) and learned I can't just do those things. they don't work for me or cause more issues. practice isn't the issue. not everyone can simply willpower through everything. but thanks for trying 😔✊️

#autistic #autism things #autism #actually autistic #adhd #audhd #neurodivergent #disablity #disabled #too tired to tag other thinhs sorry thats all you get #lee rambles #that feeling when you also just have to pretend to accept their advice and move on because people get so upset when you dont take it #i lesrned if i tell people their advice doesnt suit me and my unique circumstances then they feel bad that they didnt help #they want you to do it anyway. even if you cant. pretend you do or say thanks and move on. but it gets annoying hearinf the same stuff #over and over. more expectations on you. more pressure to do things in ways everyone else can but you cannot...#when will the advice be lee shaped? when will it be just for lee and consider all my circumstances?#why is telling the person giving advice their advice wont work fkr me bad? why cant they change their advice to fit the issues i face?#when im asked for advice and someone hits a deadend while working it out i try to help solve that so they can find a way around #but everyone else expects me to grow a bulldozer out of my head and ram the wall down instead of helping me work around it #i crush their fragile ego by saying their advice doesnt work and they get upset instead of adjusting it to help solve the specific problem #its exhausting because they become one of the many problems i have to deal with then 😒#no im not “making excuses/dismissing you/not trying” im trying. your advice sucks try again. and my problems are valid!!!!!! accept it!!!!#anyway. genuinely appreciate people wanting/trying to help but sometimes its such inappropriate advice i dont know how to respond

Thoughts on Shannon x Rad? And or Raymond x Rad?

Oooo Im glad you asked!! I'm actually quite fond of both of them!! It may be bc Rad's pretty easy to ship with other characters since he's so charming and he can have chemistry with pretty much anyone.

If I recall correctly Raymond x Rad was actually one of my first okko ships and it's one of my favorite too! I think it's clear that the creators wanted them to be a pair in one way or another, as a rivalry and/or as a romance. (It's pretty obvious that Darrell/Shannon/Raymond mirror KO/Enid/Rad I actually would love to talk more about their parallels)

They're so similar but they also manage to complete each other so well. Rad feigns confidence while being very insecure whereas Ray is completely confident to the point of narcissism. Rad suffers from toxic masculinity while Raymond couldn't care less and actually embraces things that are considered feminine.

I actually love the idea of them being so good together that they could be considered soulmates but not being willing to admit it bc of the whole hero/villain conflict (forbidden romance yaaay!) and also bc they both have too much pride to admit they may have feelings for each other

Now Shannon x Rad isn't anywhere near as popular as Radmond (I assume bc the fandom ain't that big) but hear me out, I think it's pretty cute !!

When I first watched the show I used to dislike this ship because the "Rad likes robots" episode made me a lil' uncomfortable (I could make a whole post on why I kinda hate and love this episode at the same time cause I do think it gives us some insight on shannon as a person) and also because I wasn't used to multishipping yet. I know that may sound stupid to some, but when I was younger I used to get super attached to ships to the point that I couldn't fathom the idea of a character being shipped with someone else (for example I hated Amedot only because I shipped Lapidot)

But recently I've been thinking about this again and I realized that Rad and Shannon actually have the potential to make a really cute pairing! Honestly my arguments for this ship aren't as elaborate as my Radmond analysis, it's mostly based on vibes. But I know they could have a really interesting dynamic and I wish they interracted more outside of that one singular episode.

Also I know you didn't ask BUT, since we're on the topic of Rad and robots, another ship that's underrated imo is Darrell and Rad!! I literally only know one other person who likes that ship😭 But listen they're both so goofy and cute you can't tell me they make wouldn't a cute pair?? And I'm always a sucker for a red/blue ship. Plus I love the ship name Darrad cause it's so symmetrical :) And I think the reason Darrell doesn't get shipped as much as Raymond or Shannon do is bc he gets infantilized a LOT by the fans (and even by the show)

In the end if I had to rank them by preference I'd say Radmon<Darrad<Sharad

#what can i say radicles is just that irresistible #also I figured rad may have a thing for people who can kick his ass #i just love rad and the boxbots so much they're my fav part of the show #pleaaase let there be no typos it's midnight and I dont wanna proof read #thank you for asking my opinion on okko stuff it gives me an excuse to ramble :3 #asks & anwsers

Hi there! <3 I re-watched Halloween Ends yesterday because I was upset and I needed Corey to save me, lmfao, and I wanted to ask you something that I've been wondering about. So, I have no way of getting the novelisation of the movie anytime soon, and you're kinda my only frame of reference for it; so I hope you don't mind me asking you this. When Corey is on his revenge killing spree, he kills those bullies at the mechanic shop. And Ronald is there. And then Ronald comes out to help the kids because of Terry. And only because of that. So, that makes me wonder... Did Corey plan on killing Ronald after he was done with the kids? Is that something that was elaborated on in the novel? Because I keep wondering about that, since Corey pretty much killed everyone that ever wronged him during that night, and Ronald was right there; but Corey didn't kill him (or didn't get the chance to, at least). Terry shot him by accident. But Corey killed his mom, of course. So, it'd make sense if he had at least planned on going after Ronald as well; even though he never actively wronged Corey (only passively, if we look at the way he just sat and watched while Joan abused Corey right in front of him, for example). But more so for completion's sake, y'know? They were on generally good terms, after all. I mean, in your latest post about the novel, you quoted that Ronald is "the loveliest thing" in Corey's life, according to Rohan. So, that makes me wonder all the more. OH, and... I fought with myself to include this point, but anyway- Corey takes the mask off when Ronald comes to help the kids, so that Ronald can see his face and know it's him. And it clearly disarms Ronald immediately and is the reason why Terry accidentally shot him instead of Corey, because he shielded him instinctively. Thus, I keep wondering if Corey meant for that to happen or if he took the mask off in order to assure Ronald that he wasn't actually in danger... It's such a seemingly insignificant thing that I'm thinking about far too much, but it's been bothering me that I don't know, and I was curious if the novel said anything about that at all, or if they just brushed over it there, as well. If they did, I'll just make up my own mind, of course, hdsfdjkfsk Anyway, I'm very sorry for rambling on about this, gosh! I love your blog(s) and everything you have to say about Corey and Rohan, you're awesome!!! Thank you for your detailed posts all the time, they keep me going! Take care! <3

ahhh hi !! thank you so much for sending this ask !! i love talking about this sort of thing more than anything lol and i’m sorry this took a little longer than i expected to reply, i was double checking like every ronald scene in the novel and cross-referencing that with behind-the-scenes details from making of, and re-watching the movie (i didn’t have to do that last one but like you, i needed emotional support from corey too 💗)

WARNING for discussions about (canon-typical) violence, murder, child abuse, abusive households, mentions of suicide and self-harm, and spoilers for the novelisation.

TL;DR – the novelisation does not elaborate on corey's intentions in any huge amount of detail, but it does provide some insight into a few different possibilities for ronald and corey’s relationship and what that would mean for corey's intentions.

general relationship

the novelisation actually gives some really specific details about the cunningham-prevo backstory, but also leaves a lot of aspects vague too.

joan married ronald when corey was 15, and she made it clear to ronald that he would "remain firmly on the sidelines when it came to corey's upbringing" which ronald "gladly" agreed to. so from the very beginning, ronald accepts he isn't going to be an active parent to corey, which maybe means he didn't believe he would do a good job anyway, or maybe he agreed it wasn't his place to parent corey in the same way joan does.

also, corey was already a teenager, he didn't need parenting in the same way a younger child would, which is partly why i think joan waited until corey was older to get remarried, because although being a single parent is difficult, she wouldn't want someone else in the picture as a father-figure for corey.

i don't personally see corey and ronald having a super close relationship, but there are multiple instances that show they are at least comfortable and familiar with each other (in line with what rohan said).

corey had a job before working for ronald, so we know ronald didn't have to give him a job. i hc that corey really wanted to do something stimulating instead of call centre work, and ronald agreed despite joan's grievances over it.

ronald doesn't seem too angry at him for being late, even though it is a regular occurrence (third time in a month).would he be so lenient on anyone who wasn't his stepson?

the gifting of the motorbike is a huge moment of course. that's a big gesture which, in the novelisation, also comes with some stilted bonding when ronald reminiscences that he used to "get laid [...], if you can believe it".

they have their united front moment over dinner when joan is trying to work a reaction out of them and neither gives her what she wants.

a smaller but still significant gesture is that corey uses dumbbells and a pull-up bar in his room to workout, which ronald bought him for christmas. very much feels like an attempt to help corey rebuild his self-confidence.

honestly though, rohan's comment about ronald being the "loveliest" thing in corey's life is probably right, especially as corey's life has been incredibly insular. as the town pariah with an abusive mom, his stepdad being cool about him being late for work is probably one of the best parts of his day.

but then on the other hand, there are moments which do not characterise their relationship very well, including multiple instances of ronald "ignoring" joan's abusive behaviour and not intervening.

to reiterate a previous point: ronald very willingly obliges joan's wishes of not "interfering" with corey's upbringing. her unfounded criticism and distrust of doctors, the school system and anyone other than her taking care of corey should have been a huge red flag (if, of course, any of that behaviour could have been inferred prior to their marriage).

ronald's passivity at being side-lined by his wife, allowing her to continue an unhealthy and unbounded relationship with corey.

when joan is berating corey for "sneaking around" and seeing allyson (the slap/kiss scene), she questions ronald as to whether he knew about the motorcycle, to which ronald stays completely out of it and doesn't answer her, despite her being furious with corey.

however it is a really difficult family dynamic to navigate, with so much nuance. i'm reluctant to say if ronald is a "good" or "bad" stepdad, or whether their father-son relationship is "good" or "bad", simply because their circumstances are so trying and complex. yes, joan has abused corey for a long time, but that abuse also extends to ronald in many ways too, resulting in him allowing (or enabling) joan's abusive behaviour in a flawed attempt to maintain the (toxic) status quo of the household.

did corey intend to kill ronald?

like i mentioned, there isn't any elaboration about corey's intentions in the novel, either through narration or extra dialogue. the scene happens almost exactly as it does in the film, with a few alterations and added background details. it's the surrounding details and plot differences that change my opinion.

i think movie!corey would have killed ronald if he had to. he knew ronald would be at home or at the yard, both of which were places he intended to go (to kill momma and the bullies). i'm not sure he had the same desire to kill ronald as he does the others, especially if he sees ronald in a good light, but to tie up loose ends he might do what is "necessary". i do find it very interesting that he lets ronald see his face though, and i can't decide if that is as a reassurance (he wouldn't kill ronald and ronald should know that) or because it just didn't matter (he's going to kill ronald so even if he sees corey's face, he won't be a liability to worry about).

however, i don't think novel!corey intended to kill ronald. in the novel, despite all of the extensive set-up of joan being abusive and corey's repressed desires to hurt her (and arguably ronald), there's no suggestion that corey planned to go back home as part of his spree and kill joan. if he wasn't going to kill joan after everything she did, i really don't think he'd have plans to kill ronald.

that's not to say there aren't implication in the novel that corey would hurt ronald too. there's a scene after the slap/kiss where corey can hear joan and ronald arguing about him, and once they've gone to bed corey gets a knife and stands outside their room, but ultimately doesn't go in. it isn't specified whether he wants to hurts just joan, or ronald as well.

michael's mask

ahh so when i was re-reading the scrapyard massacre in the novel to try and answer whether corey letting ronald see that it is him was a way of corey saying "you don't have to be scared of me" or even "you should be scared of me", i've come to a different conclusion about the mask.

“Who did this to you?” [Ronald] asked. “Him,” Margo said, pointing across the street. Ronald turned to find Corey twenty feet away on the other side of the fence, pulling Michael’s mask over his head. "Corey?" he muttered in disbelief.

the way the novel reads, i think that when corey puts the mask on in front of ronald, it's the first time he puts the mask on at all. if that is the case, it adds a whole other level to the transition between corey's kills as himself (or as the scarecrow) and his kills "as michael".

earlier, billy's sees "corey's shape wearing his prevo jumpsuit". it's fair enough that billy would assume it's corey without seeing his face, because they know that corey is there, but there's no mention of the mask either.

then, the way it describes ronald seeing corey put on the mask doesn't really indicate that corey was making sure ronald saw it was him. he's already "pulling on the mask" by the time ronald looks over at him; he wasn't waiting for ronald to look he was already doing it.

alternatively, the movie shows corey very deliberately stood there, waiting for ronald to see him and recognise him before he puts the mask on. i'm leaning towards it not being a gesture of reassurance but more of a last show of humanity to someone corey cares about -- "it's me, and i appreciate that you always treated me well, but this is the monster they've made me into".

in both versions, ronald jumps up to stop terry shooting corey. whether he was intending to shield corey or was just getting up to try and talk terry down, i think it says a lot about ronald as a character. he has been very passive this whole time, especially in scenes that take place at home, but in this moment he takes an authorative position to try and diffuse the situation. there's a scared kid with a gun, and his own stepson who he's starting to think might have done something awful, but this doesn't have to continue -- they can talk about it and calm down and whatever it is that has happened can be worked out.

#corey cunningham #halloween ends #ahhh thank you so much for this ask !! 🥰🥰 i've been turning it over and over in my brain for a few weeks now 😈😈#i'll take any excuse to go over the details again and connect established things in new ways #and thank you for including your point about the mask !!#the dilemma about whether he took the mask off and put it back on has not left my brain since i re-read the novel #which is really exciting because i didnt think i'd get anything knew to chew on this late in the game #i also noticed another pattern which didn't fit here but i wanna post about soon #i hope i covered everything you were curious about. my replies get so rambling --#-- i just throw in section headers to make it seem like i know what i'm talking about lolol #(and also thank you so much for being so lovely !! i love talking about corey and as always this is just my interpretation --#-- i'd love to hear your thoughts and honestly community discussion is what fuels so much of my posting because like this is our thing !! )

OH OH OH OH OH FULL NAME FULL NAME AKANE KISHIDA

I figured she was the one to get in touch first based on Jo knowing she wanted to see her son, but I have SO many questions about that... how does she know her son survived... how does she know Ichiban was her son and not Aoki... how does she know who Jo is and how to contact Jo... (<- tearing my hair out as we speak)

Anyway when you have the opportunity please view the gameplay footage...

obsessed how its addressed to Mr. Jo Sawashiro i dont know why that detail tickles me... thats cute..

chicken-and-egg kinda deal with Who Contacted Who first. like id ASSUME sawashiro'd get in contact with her first if he was feeling guilty enough about The Whole Situation and was willing to dig into arakawa's past imo, esp since akane wouldn't have any reason (or ability to) know who he was until after he joins the yakuza.. and i mean.. shes long gone by then.. tho that's assuming they got in contact early on and they didnt JUST start communicating within the past few years.

BUT EITHER WAY just gotta wait and see for it all to play out.. in three months <- still cant believe its coming out january 26th 👁️💋👁️

youtube

IM OBSESSED WITH THE GAMEPLAY FOOTAGE im soooo glad i was right in how they were going to handle the style change aspect (though i guess it wasnt a hard thing to predict but still..). I LOVE HOW KIRYU CAN ACTUALLY ROAM FREE THAT'S SO COOL i remember people kept speculating on how the gameplay was gonna go with how different ichi and kiryu's playstyles are and this is SUUCH a rad way to answer that question. my excitement is immeasurable and im gonna throw up

#snap chats #lest i neglect chitose's fighting style looks SICK. the neck stomp did remind me of juri han sorry im sick in the head EITHER WAY #the ballet skills... explains why she seems so skinny tbh. like maybe im delusional but i feel like her model is Extra slim yk #i hope im right... oh but speaking of diversity i love how they got people speaking english #Typical Westerner Answer Is Typical IM JUST SAYING its a nice immersion aspect. also im nosy let me eavesdrop #-5 points on the immersion aspect for the fact katy didnt immediately apologize after ichi bumps into her #any american would start profusely apologizing excuse you. BUT SPEAKING OF MOVEMENT #maybe its too early to make this assessment but i like how more concise ichi's walking is #back in Y7 one issue i had was just how.. not 'slippery' he was but it certainly felt like his shoes didnt have any traction #but now he seems to walk more precisely. hope im right....#crazy eats looks so fun... they have no idea who theyre playin with when my dumbass has all these tony hawk and jet set radio hours #im rambling on too much i still have to answer your other ask LMAO thank you for writin in an sendin the gameplay demo :]

crimsooonnnn, (〃ω〃) i wanted to ask if you have any cute stories about baby tomioka or any funny family moments with you, him, and giyuu ♡ i’d love to hear about them!!

Aaaahh these thoughts usually just creep up on me lolol but I’ll try to remember them!!

One I always think of though, that I’ve already mentioned, is baby Tomioka being a hair puller lolol. Always pulling our hair and never realizing bc he’s just trying to cling on lol. Only sometimes does he do it out of entertainment. So sometimes I’ll headcannon that that’s the reason Giyuu cuts his hair so it could encourage his baby to pull on hair less lol

He also like to chew on things, teething or not teething. He’s just a chewer lolol. Since I also mentioned already with the whole “he loves to steal Giyuu’s kirimi keychain and chew on it” kekeke. He’ll chew on his straw and then whine that he can’t drink out of it anymore bc he chewed the straw shut lolol

And he of course had the good baby smell!! He smelled so cute and sweet, Giyuu had caught me huffing his head multiple times. (And often times he joined me too lmao)

I also kind of wanna say he’s more of a papa’s boy!! 😖 not cuz it’s “father and first born son” but just because they get along so, so well. So this one time, Giyuu was holding him and he just kept crying and Giyuu didn’t know why. He tried everything and nothing worked and when I held him, he finally stopped crying. He just wanted his mama and we were both surprised bc of just how much more attached he is to Giyuu lolol. (Of course he loves me too! He was more attached to me the much younger he was since a baby usually often depends more on their mother lol)

I REALIZE IM JUST REALLY RAMBLING ABOUT HEADCANONS LMAO!!

Okay so a silly moment or scenario!

One I think about often is Giyuu walking in on me singing our baby a lullaby 😖😖💗 there are a few songs I always have in mind that I think would be great as a lullaby. And I’d just wanna sing them to my fictional baby lol. But Giyuu knows I’ll stop if I see or hear him so he’s just admiring from the doorframe until I sense his presence and get embarrassed that he heard me lmao. (Giyuu will also sing to his baby, but so softly and quietly. More of like he’s singing to himself while holding his baby but nonetheless still singing to him ♡)

Not really a silly moment but I guess a cute one! I looveee ponds and watching fish swim around and I wanna say my baby would be mesmerized by it too lol. So we’re walking through a garden as a family one day and find a pond with koi inside so me and baby Tomioka are just staring in awe, pointing at the fish and just simply entranced lol. And it gives Giyuu a chance to just stare and admire us and he just thinks about how absolutely happy and lucky he is ppfftt. Such a soft expression on his face!! Smiling happily at us as he watches his family being all cute and domestic lolol. And then he starts to think of adding a koi pond to his estate so that we could stare at it all the time kekeke

#I RAMBLED SO MUCH LMAO #I’m glad you wanna hear about them though!!#gives me an excuse to ramble about my fictional family (⁄ ⁄•⁄ω⁄•⁄ ⁄)#the songs I deem as perfect lullabies that aren’t your typical ones are #Everything Stays; Time Adventure; and Zelda’s Lullaby!!#id also often hum Epona’s Song lolol #i know these songs don’t really exist during the kny timeline #but this is my fantasy I get to choose the lullabies lmao #i hope the last paragraph made sense too lol #but I have such a vivid image of it in my head #but can’t figure out to articulate it correctly lol #maybe I should try drawing it one day then 🤔#it’d be good background drawing practice #but yes!!!#here’s another dose of my fictional family shenanigans lolol #thank you for the ask mimmy!!! 🫶🫶#crimsonkenjii answers #selfship shenanigans

Looook, it's me with another ask! Okay okay, three headcanons for each Belcher, go :D!

Headcanons about all of the Belchers from Moi? You keep spoiling me with these perfect, perfect asks!!! 😭

Okay, let's start with Bob. Talking more about Bob makes me so happy because I'm still sad about not including him as one of my favorite Belchers (Linda and Gene just called to me too strongly, though).

1.) This ties into my AU, but his hatred of Jimmy Pesto began when Jimmy Pesto made a snide remark about Linda, something he's never been able to let go of ever since. He definitely hyper-fixates on their rivalry, I think it's gotten to the point where he's even more invested than Jimmy himself. Jimmy doesn't even remember what he said, but Bob will never forget.

2.) While he will never pick favorites out of his kids, of course, his favorite kid when they were a baby was actually Gene, believe it or not. While it was a close second with Tina because she was so quiet and good, Gene was just such a wild baby that he actually found it quite entertaining. While there were some moments where that ended up making him extremely stressed (like when Gene ate a fern) his antics always made Bob laugh more than he'd care to admit. It kind of reminded him why he loved parenting in the first place.

3.) Whenever Bob becomes too stressed out or overstimulated, his favorite thing to do is to hide in the employee bathroom and read something while Linda and the kids take care of everything. We already know from "Ancient Misbehavin'" that Linda loves it whenever he reads, so she supports this wholeheartedly.

Onto Linda now! :D

1.) I touched on this in my comic prologue I posted a while back, but Linda and Gayle occasionally got taken to the beach when they were kids if Gloria had some sort of work business to take care of around there. They always loved it there and would always try to look for shells so they could hear the ocean, even though they were already at the beach and could already hear the ocean very well.

2.) She was actually not as much of a social butterfly during her school years as one might believe. She did find her crowd, especially Ginger, but a lot of people, unfortunately, thought she was too much, and didn't like it if she spontaneously burst into song or rambled about something she enjoyed. She also used to get teased a bit about her braces. This is why she related to Tina during "These Boots Are Made For Stalking" and had that whole speech about how Tina wasn't the only one who wanted to change herself to be seen as cool. These experiences actually led her to be a bit nervous about rambling in front of Bob when they first started dating, but he loves it whenever she goes off on her tangents, so she's very easily excitable in the present.

3.) Linda is the reason that they all know Teddy! This was before the kids were even born, and their sink was having major issues. She tried calling a couple of handymen other than Teddy, but none of them were available. She eventually found him, and he came over and was immediately won over by her presence. After he was done, he revealed that he hadn't eaten all day yet, and she had Bob make him a burger. The rest is history.

Now for my precious, awkward baby girl Tina.

1.) She's been doing her signature groaning for as long as she could remember. It's always been her way of (to quote Sadness from "Inside Out") "slowing down and obsessing over the weight of life's problems". She heard Bob making a similar noise when he was upset and she copied it. It just kind of stuck from then on.

2.) She's known Jimmy Jr. for a very, very long time, basically since they were in preschool. When they first met, he was really upset about being by himself, so she went up to him and asked him to play blocks with her. He agreed, and it got his mind off his homesickness. He still remembers that day, though if asked, he will deny it. Tina treasures that memory a lot.

3.) Her first boy crush was actually on a member of Boyz 4 Now, much like Louise. She's known about the band for a long time, and the first time she stumbled across them, she was completely enthralled by Griffin. She hasn't stopped loving this band and boys ever since that day. Griffin is still her favorite member.

It's Gene time!

1.) The first piece of music Gene ever made on his keyboard was abysmally bad (to be fair, he was very young when he first got it) but his family, especially Linda, acted as if it was incredible and the best thing in the world. This boosted his confidence enough to continue playing around with his keyboard and realize how much he enjoyed creating music, and he got a lot better! It says a lot when he was able to eventually make things like "Electric Love" and "Work Hard or Die Trying, Girl".

2.) He actually really enjoys movies, a trait he got from Bob. It's why he was so excited to stage a "Die Hard" musical in the first place and why he got excited about that one Western movie during the first season, and why he keeps making random film references (like when he said "you can't handle the tooth" in the movie). He's actually wondered if having a career doing film scores would be fun, but he's still pretty deadset on wanting to be in some sort of band because he loves "The Itty Bitty Ditty Committee" so much.

3.) He enjoys putting on dresses a lot and used to wear Linda's, but they're way too big on him. Now, he tries wearing some of Tina's, though they are still slightly large on him. He thinks they're way prettier and more comfortable than men's formal wear, and they give him gender euphoria :D However, he has yet to wear any in public. His favorite feminine thing to wear are ballet outfits, and he apparently canonically used to take ballet lessons at some point.

Last but certainly not least, Louise!

1.) Louise actually respects Linda, more than she will ever admit. She's super curious about Linda's early years, especially because how Linda has said that she did things like set fires. Louise desperately wants to hear more context behind these random anecdotes. She also admittedly thinks it's pretty cool how Linda sprung her out of detention for ice cream that one time.

2.) She met Regular Sized Rudy when they were really young, around preschool or kindergarten. He was the only person who actually approached her, and didn't mind when she started going on about the random tricks she wanted to pull on other students. She didn't go through with most of them, but they did steal another kid's crackers during snack time together. He was the first one to ever compliment her ears.

3.) She first got Kuchi Kopi because as a toddler, she was pretty fussy and didn't like sleeping through the night or taking baths. She would regularly sneak into Bob and Linda's room to sleep because she didn't like being alone. However, when presented with the night light for the first time, she got super enthralled, and Bob and Linda thought of it as a miracle. They were super exhausted at that point, and seeing her so calm was incredible to them. But the best night's sleep she would ever get was snuggling with her parents with the night light (she definitely didn't like sleeping alone when she was young).

I could probably go on but here are some of my headcanons! I hope this was fun to read because I had a lot of fun with this.

#bobs burgers #belcher family #thank you so so much for this!!!#this was so much fun to do oh my lord #i love this crazy lovely family and i'm so happy i got an excuse to ramble about them #also i checked the wiki after writing most of this and apparently it's actually canon that griffin is tina's favorite boyz 4 now member #asks

Ik this is random and is gonna sound crazy but i had this theory that both sigma and atsushi were created by the book since both. Have black n white hair,some sort of white color scheme(albinism?) And seem to be both REALLY socially akward as if they DIDNT spend enough time around humans(in sigmas case ofc but atsushi? He grew up SUROUNDED by other kids,and ofc he was an outcast and he was probs afraid of punishment so ofc that could be an explanation) both are REALLY similar

They aaaare, and it's not crazy (have you seen canon?)!! I've seen stuff about Atsushi and Sigma parallels and it FASCINATES me how similar they are (I read the Sky Casino arc and MAN was that intense).

And while I don't know enough to disagree or agree with your theory OP, canon HAS already stated through Fitzgerald that Atsushi has a connection to the book. And considering how Sigma was created from the book and how you and the fandom in general see to see Sigma and Atsushi as incredibly similar....well, there's definitely SOMETHING going on in there.

(Also, there's another post I know that also pointed out how Q was similar to Sigma design-wise, which I was reminded of with your ask....I don't know if there's a point to that but...)

I do think so far, though, that Atsushi is human. He's mentioned to have parents and his childhood seems to be pretty well established. Of course this is a seinen action manga and they always seem to have the most convoluted plotlines. Like just watch as they pull out a plot twist that Atsu and all his backstory WAS created by the book and that the beginning of the manga is the beginning of his true birth...please don't take that seriously...

Anyway, I went on an unrelated tangent again (as usual) but thank you for the ask, OP!! I don't think about Sigma/Atsu parallels enough and your theory definitely isn't crazy...but we shall have to see.

#also i think its worth noting how sigma seems to be a 'cooler' version of our weretiger in some ways #something something self inserts are always cooler i dont have the brain capacity for this #also once again im reading orv so my mind is probably overheating with story/character/writer parallels #NEVERTHELESS...thank you for the ask op it set me THINKING on dozens of things (related or not)#and i love the little weird and wild or plausible theories this fandom comes up with #but is it really? bsd canon has alternate universe and sort of gods and also vampires....#ah also op i saw your comments to the ed poe post i made and YESSS...#not gonna rb my own post again so ill say here that i love how you pointed how how woven with books so many abilities seem to be #(like in a sense you could really say that yosano's story began with that butterfly pin made from the soldier's book)#and also i love the random asks so thank you! though i excuses for rambling a bit #bsd #bungo stray dogs #bungou stray dogs #bsd musings #bsd theories #bsd atsushi #bsd sigma #bsd yumeno #bsd q #i dont think i have a tag for asks....#but eh it can just go under...#spitting nonsense #(not the asker. me)#bsd spoilers #bsd manga spoilers #manga spoilers

folks i made art for @scorpionoesit’s vagabonds fic. it is a very good fic and you all should read it if you haven’t already.

if you haven’t heard of it,, basically,, think clinic, but tommy doesn’t have healing powers + he heals many different groups, not just villains(and vigilantes).

it is,, as i said,, verrrrrrry very good,,,, we got clingy duo, we got bedrock bros, allium duo, golden duo,, whatever the hell tommy and fundy’s duo name is i don’t know i don’t keep up with these things. we got bamf tommy,, we got micheal aka the best character,, we got peanut butter cookies,, have i convinced you to read this fic yet. do i need to send my not-so-good essay. i will do it. no i won’t actually it’s not good but still you should read the fic kdjdkdndk.

anyway, ranting aside,,,, the art!!

click for better quality,,,,, reblogs > likes!!

i feel like the rooftop itself could be better(it is. very empty,, dkdnkd),, as well as the poses,, and the background is.. eh,,, but i like everything else about it!!

and that’s not all i have! made a couple little extra doodles,, putting them under the cut!! hope you all enjoy!!

#my art #dream smp #tommyinnit #technoblade #scorpionoesit my beloved i love their fics so much. my number one favorite author of all time; genuinely #whenever vagabonds and braided realities is done;; i would honestly love to print ‘em out and make ‘em into an actual book-#-for personal use;;; like if i ever get on a plane and wanna read something #with the authors permission of course;; kfnfkf. gonna wait until the fics are actually complete before asking tho fifnof #and i’d also need to like. actually learn how to bookbind #anyway rambling aside. if you’re curious about that essay i mentioned you’re welcome to look for it in my blog #i’m not linking it myself it is. not good as i’ve said fkfnfknfkfn. it’s only 1/3 about vagabonds #another third is about dsmp hero fics in general; and the last third is about. the owl house.#they are connected i promise. kind of #i just wanted an excuse to ramble and promote vagabonds and somehow ended up with 3k words of nonsense jdbdkdbdjvd #anyway x2. spreading my long-curly haired c!tommy propaganda. i cannot be stopped #also fun fact. techno’s hair is different than how i normally draw his hair. mostly the color #usually i draw his hair the same color as the pig skin;; but in the fic it’s specifically mentioned as ‘bubble gum pink’.#and i wanted to be accurate to that. even tho right next to him is tommy in a pony tail; something definitely not in the actual fic #tho it doesn’t really matter ngl;; you can barely see the difference in the final piece kfhfodbkd #still… i’ll know. and so will you; person who read the tags. thanks for that btw idk how many ppl actually read my inane ramblings down here #here; take a peanut butter cookie; made with a dash of chekhov’s gun #(i’ve rambled. so much(not really) about the cookies in various discord servers.)#i love this fic so much you would not believe #also ngl i kinda just. traced the. uh. shit what’s the thing called.#ok i forget the name but jsyk. i traced it fodnkdbd. did not try too much with that #well i mean. i did. with the coloring/shading bits. but not with the actual shape of it didjkdjd #also i just realized i forgot to add the fake writing details on a lil sticker on the thing but then i realized.#you can’t even see it anyway tech’s in the way. so. woo?#anyway i’m about to run out of tags so i guess this is where i stop #have a nice day/night; folks!!

can you tell me about your ocs?

CAN I

Ok so! Here are the ones with up to date refs. Most of them are superpowered 11 year olds

-Lilly and Yarrow are both tigers. They're cousins and the main protagonists! The story begins with Yarrow going to live with Lilly and her mom after his mother's death.

-Lilly is excitable and upbeat and sees the best in people. She's doing her best to figure out how to control her electric powers. Yarrow is grumpy and sullen and prone to self isolating. He has fire powers (but wishes he didn't).

-Sabrina is a serval and Lilly's older cousin (she's 12) in the other side of the family. She's a supporting character but she's there bc i wanted her with her cousins :) she's kind of a big sister to Lilly and Yarrow and loves teasing Lilly. Also she has water powers!

-Melon and Snap are secondary protags and Lilly's friends! Melon is Lilly's best friend, and Snap kinda makes Yarrow his best friend by force (at first).

-Melon is a blunt and strong-willed bunny who hates being told what to do, and has psychic powers she's very confident about. Snap is a chill and goofy snow leopard who strives to make people laugh, and has snow and ice powers he mostly uses for fun.

-Garin is a skunk and a little menace. He's a resourceful and fiercely independent runaway with trust issues who uses his rock and earth powers to fend for himself. He's initially an antagonist who's introduced a little later, briefly becoming Melon's bestie then her worstie and rival.

-Also he and Yarrow were childhood best friends up until An Incident after which they never saw each other again, which is. Kind of a whole thing

-Mr. Alder is a goat and the kids' school teacher. He's patient and kind and kinda mentors the kids when it comes to their powers, as he has powers of his own (he has plant powers!)

The first arc mostly focuses on Lilly and Yarrow, as Lilly is adamant to cheer him up while he just wants to be left alone and try his hardest to keep his powers in check. It also generally follows the four mains adapting to Yarrow now being there and becoming part of the friend group.

The second one introduces Garin and mostly focuses on Melon and her crime-partnership- turned-rivalry with Garin. That's followed by Yarrow and Garin finally running into each other again (Garin doesn't take his old friend hanging out with his new enemies very well).

After that i don't have a solid plot figured out yet! Just vibes and evolving character dynamics i rotate on my brain 24/7

I have more in-depth info on the main kids (still working on adding the others) on my Toyhouse!! There's more pics of them there also

I. Have more ocs fjsndjbsj but it's late so i'm leaving it at these guys for now and coming back to this with more when i can :]

#[thinks about them too hard and explodes]#THANK U FOR THE EXCUSE TO RAMBLE ABOUT THEM i could've just linked my toyhouse but. where's the fun in that!!#it was fun trying to summarize them :]#i Will come back to this. ones i also wanna talk abt a bit include amy's parents and the young adult ladies #toma ocs #lilly watts #yarrow watts #melon blake #snap butterscotch #garin slate #mr. alder #sabrina amaryllis #donki tag #asks

Hello! Who is your favorite Twilight character and what do you love about them?

Hi! Thanks for being my first ask! So I think for this to make sense, I’ll give a background. I’m about to turn 26 next week, I’ve been a twilight fan since I was around 12. I’ve never been a fan of main characters probably because I never felt like a main character myself. I fell in love with Alice and Jasper when I first read the books, especially Eclipse. I’m a sucker for the “bad guy is saved by love” trope. Because even at the age of 26, I think we, as humans, have to be believe in love, in loving and being loved. The world is a dark place with no love. I admire that while Alice herself didn’t just magic Jasper out of a dark existence, she helped him help himself. Having been in dark places myself (albeit not in a vampire war) it’s so important helping yourself but sometimes we need a little push from others around us to be able to help ourselves. So Jasper was my favourite character, I loved how his whole world perspective shifted when he met Alice. How did this battle worn vampire soldier become tamed by a 4ft? bubbly wee vampire? I’m Scottish and don’t know too much about the American Civil War, but I know that is a major character turn off for Jasper as well as the information we got in MS. Now, while I liked Alice, I didn’t take to her until I read her backstory when the guide was published. Again, what a horrible past she has and I loved that Jasper was the first person she saw and she just knew he was going to help her through (even though he had no idea about her existence). I know there are a few of us on tumblr who are really interested in how the events in the saga have perpetually changed their relationship with the impending doom that Aro will come for Alice one day. I’d be so interested to read more about that. Jasper is fiercely protective of Alice, everything he does is in what he thinks are her best interests (all twilight relationships are slightly toxic).

The older I get, the more I begin to relate to Rosalie. My teenage self just saw her as a bit of a nuisance. Again, learning about her horrific background was interesting and unfortunately too many of us in society can relate to parts of her story. I think about all the things we know about Rosalie and Emmett’s intense physical side of their relationship and think about the journey it must have taken to get to that point. That would be interesting to read too, because the trauma she went through wouldn’t have just vanished overnight.

Sorry, this turned into a partially psychoanalytical answer but it’s so difficult to answer. I’d say Jasper, Alice, Rosalie, Emmett are my favourites.

#twilight ask #I ramble too much #this is why I get so shy speaking on here #my answer doesn’t even make sense #sorry #but also thank you so much for giving me an excuse to talk about twilight

How about a director’s cut for My Head Is an Animal? What made you decide to work Of Monsters and Men (and that album, in specific) into the story? How did you first get into them?

🎵 Musical Episode Talk 🎶

Fair warning, I use a *lot* of words to answer this. 900 of them to be approximate. Peek under the cut and scroll at your own risk.

There's a bunch of different angles to this so I'm probably just gonna spit them out variety show style and then maybe have them cross over at the end.

I've danced around this before but I'll just out and say it, Violet is kind of loosely based on me. Not in a Literally Me ™️ self-insert way, but I give her some traits and characteristics that I have in real life. As much as I like her, I feel like the show kinda left her blank, especially compared to how much development Lena and Webby got. I don't think the stuff I've added feels very out of place on her anyway.

I remember reading a few fics in which characters would come out to each other, and that was pretty neat. At the time I was way less out than I am now, so the only way I could really express that was through fiction. Hence, why I took the aroace Vi headcanon I already had and made a story out of it.

I'm a sucker for character playlists. Whether it's songs that tell their story, or just the kind of music they'd be into, it's the easiest way for me to get a grasp on a character. I actually do this when I write as well. Each fic has its own "soundtrack", except Dream(s) because of how short it was.

OMAM had their big hit in 2012 with "Little Talks", which has kinda lingered around ever since. I've gone through phases of loving it and forgetting it even exists over the past ten years, although it's probably never leaving my head anymore.

I pick up a lot of music from soundtracks and playlists. I'm not a big discography guy. The easiest way to get me to like a song is to attach it to something else I like (hence why character playlists do it for me). In this case, OMAM appeared in the NHL 20 soundtrack ("Alligator". Recommend it), which brought them back into my brain around 2020-21.

There was a social media post I saw while I was still getting accustomed to the whole aroace thing, which asked for songs that fit the community. Kinda similar to the aro vibes post that went around about a week ago. One of them was "Love Love Love", which caught my eye because it was OMAM. I gave it a listen, and I would love to tell you that it hit me right away, but it just didn't really. But after a few times over, it started to click. I'm not sure if this is when I listened back to the whole album or if that came later, but this was the catalyst for that.

Whenever I have panic attacks or otherwise just bad times, I listen to Fleetwood Mac. It's my ultimate comfort band. My top 2 tracks are "Rhiannon" and "Dreams", which are pretty much guaranteed to put me in a better mood. That's one of the concepts I gave Violet, as both a justification for the music and a point of conflict.

[Edit: oooh I just remembered I also did this concept in the first ever fic I wrote (unreleased) about Lena having a meltdown and Webby and Vi calming her down with a song! So I guess that makes 3x I've done that trope now]

Back to character playlists. If you remember the post I made recently about the Violet Sabrewing playlist getting wiped from Spotify, that's relevant here. It had songs by The Oh Hellos and The Crane Wives, which really planted the idea in my head that Violet would be into indie folk rock. What else is indie folk rock? OMAM!

I already liked "Little Talks" and loved "LLL", and I dug the indie folk rock vibe, so I figured why not dive into the whole album. Which is funny because I almost never do that. Not a discography guy, like I said.

You still there? Great. Anyway...

When I sat down to write "My Head is an Animal", it was originally going to be about Violet finding the song, kinda like I did. The "Love Love Love" scene was going to be the majority of it. But I felt like it was missing something. I wanted to see Violet go through the process. I wanted to show her struggling, realizing, accepting, etc. I wanted to show the full experience.

Hence, the full album. I had some ideas for where I was ultimately taking the story, but this was the most seat-of-my-pants writing I've ever done. I had the songs playing on loop as I wrote each segment, writing down how it made me feel. How it made her feel. The ups, the downs, everything.

I didn't want to just parachute in during the middle of Violet's process, because that feels like shortcutting it. But I also wanted to give closure as seen in the final cut. In reality, there's still a lot more to figure out for Vi, as there is with anyone, but after putting her through a panic attack or two, I wanted to see her happy.

Hopefully that all made some sort of sense. At the very least, it was worth writing down for my sake. And big thanks for the ask!

#ask and you shall be answered #my head is an animal dx #aroace violet my beloved #what can i say? i like writing characters who are struggling through hard times but are comforted by the people they love most #and also a song that means a lot to them personally while still carrying relevance in the situation at hand #as one does #but yeah thanks for the excuse to ramble #my autism appreciates it

2, 27, 38, and 56 for piarles asseblief 🥰

( @mssr-monagato )

@mssr-monagato cara my lief!! natuurlik 😍 anything for youuuu :D let’s get in there!

2. What would they do if the other woke in a manic state after a nightmare?

ohh, this is such a good one. i feel like both of their go-to would be a combination of comforting words and physical touch. so, like - pierre cradling charles’ face in both his hands, pressing their foreheads together and saying, achingly gentle, “hey, hey, hey, it’s okay, charles, charlo, it’s okay. i’m here, i’ve got you.” and charles would do something similar for him as well - reaching for pierre’s hands and holding them tightly, maybe pressing pierre’s hand to charles’ chest so he can feel his heartbeat and telling him “it’s okay, pierrot, it was not real, they have no hold over you anymore, you are here and you are with me and you are free.” and really just… being so, so tender and understanding with each other. letting themselves be vulnerable in front of each other. being each other’s anchors, when it’s needed, because they trust each other more than words can say, for always. ❤️

27. Who is the light weight that needs to be taken care of after a party?

teehee, well, i think this answer probably won’t be surprising at all, but - charles. in my head canon, he is a little bit hopeless at holding his liquor, lmao. he’d be the kind of person who’s absolutely fine for the first few drinks, but then quite suddenly, he’s just gone. everything is ridiculously funny, and he just can’t stop giggling, hiding his face in pierre’s shoulder to try and stifle it. that, and he’s super clumsy and handsy, which makes for a very entertaining combination, lolz. so like, he’ll be trying to walk over to pierre to get close to him, or something, and proceed to trip over his own feet. pierre, because he’s a bit of a disney prince like that, would catch him immediately and hold him up with an arm around his waist. charles would giggle unstoppably, of course, and steady himself with a hand on pierre’s chest like “ooohhhh.” and then he’d probably drag that hand down, very not subtly admiring pierre’s muscles. to the point that pierre would have to catch his hand and stop him before he starts something he can’t finish in a public space, snaksjghsjkdhggjkh

just a bit later in the evening, though, i feel like charles would go from all cute and cheerful and drunk to just dead tired, suddenly. can barely stay on his feet, burying his face in pierre’s shoulder again - but to hide his yawns, this time. now, this would be when pierre’s protective side takes over. he’d take charles home immediately, and fuss over him a stupid amount. helping him up the stairs, making sure he drinks a lot of water, tucking him into bed and making sure he’s completely, 100% safe and taken care of. he’d also probably have a glass of water and ibuprofen ready for him in the morning, too. just… he’d take care of charles. every time; and anytime. 💙

38. Who is more sexually experimental? Who's more vanilla?

answered here 😉

56. What do they do turn the other on/put them in the mood?

answered here 😏

(obligatory otp asks)

#asks & answers #obligatory otp asks #cara tag 🇿🇦 <333 #dankie dankieeee 😍 EXCELLENT taste as usual #these were so fun :D #so tender but also so hilarious... my HEART #ugh i am just so soft for them it is ridiculous #thank you and bless you for giving me the excuse to ramble about it ❤️❤️#🦑🏎️ piarles #piarles headcanons
