who did this to you? toji fushiguro x fem!reader. (repost)
Tumblr media
little drabble<3 flirty toji is just so babygirl
Toji fushiguro was the bane of your existence. You hated him with a burning passion. It wasn’t as if that wasn’t known.
Everyone knew about it and the feelings were mutual. Toji hated you as well. You tried your best to tolerate the man because of your elder brother’s sake but sometimes you just wanted to smack Toji across his smug-looking face and permanently disfigure his pretty face.
So it was safe to say that it was very bad when you were standing at his door at almost 2 a.m. with bruises on your face.
Toji had just finished up with a woman and was standing in his boxers, in his kitchen drinking water when he heard the doorbell ring and there were rapid knocks on his door.
Toji was alert and contemplated if he should open the door or not. He grabbed his shotgun and walked over to the door and took a peek through the little keyhole.
To his surprise, his best friend’s little sister, his sworn ‘enemy’ was standing at the door. He hurriedly opened the door and was surprised.
Mascara-tinged tears were streaming down your face, leaving two black streaks on your face. Your hair looked rough, you were supporting bruises all over your neck and arms.
“Toji,” you shakily called out as he opened the door. Your legs gave out and you were about to fall when Toji steadied you in his arms.
“Who did this to you?” Toji furiously asked. You weren’t able to respond and just sobbed in his chest. Toji had never felt this miserable in his life.
“He-he tried to,” you gasped, unable to speak. Your entire body was quivering.
“Calm down sweetheart. I’m here, aren’t I? I will kill him for you hm? He dared to lay a hand on you.” Toji seethed.
“C’mere,” he softly spoke and enveloped you in a hug. He led you to the couch and sat you down on his lap as he soothingly rubbed your back.
“I had nowhere else to go. I- was at a party,” You spoke unsteadily.
“Take your time baby,” Toji softly stated as he brushed his thumb on your lips.
“I was invited to a party by my friends and they- there was a guy, he kept staring at me. I went outside to take a breather and he got me. I shouted for help but nobody came. They all just brushed me off.” You took a deep breath and continued.
“Since your house was a 5-minute walk from here I ran. I’ve seen him numerous times at parties and there was also a time when he was standing outside my apartment complex staring at my window. Thank god I was on alert today otherwise I would’ve been-” You shuddered at the thought. What if you didn’t notice the signs and drank what he gave you?
“He didn’t?” Toji questioned. You shook your head. Toji for a moment had a look of relief on his face but it soon changed.
“He dared to beat you,” Toji carefully wiped the tears off your face. “He’s going to regret even attempting to breathe near you,” Toji coldly said.
“Doll first let’s get you to the bathroom,” He spoke as he carried you, who was still clinging onto him for dear life to his bathroom. He gently sat you on the countertop.
“I can do it on my own,” you mumbled as he wet a towel and was about to wipe your face.
“Shush baby, I’ll do it for you,” Toji said and gently wiped your face. “Why do you wear so much mascara? This shit is blacker than my soul,” He muttered under his breath. You tried your best to muffle your laughter but ended up snorting instead.
“Cheeky pig eh? Be careful or I’ll eat you up.” Toji deadpanned. You scoffed, “eating me up? So you’re into cannibalism now?”
Toji looked at you and chuckled, “Well if you want. I give a pretty good oral by the way. 5-star reviews only,” He winked at you as he said that.
You scrunched your nose. “You’re nasty and to address the elephant in the room why are you in your boxers and have hickeys all over you?”
“Just had a one-night stand. Lady’s still upstairs? I don’t know sleeping or someshit. Don’t even remember her name,” Toji shrugged.
“I’ll go get ice for your bruises. Your brother will kill me if he finds that I didn’t heal them.” He muttered under his breath and he walked away and appeared a minute later.
“Hand,” he demanded and started the cold compress. “After this, I’m taking you to the motherfucker that dared to touch you. Let’s beat the shit out of him.” His eyes were filled with fury.
“I thought you’d be like ‘Stay here and I’ll deal with him’ but I was wrong I guess,” you mumbled.
“Darling, you need to see what happens to these creatures that dare to touch you. Your brother, Shiu, and I are both very articulate when dealing with small fry like him.”
“I didn’t want to admit this but you don’t know how relieved I am that you’re here. With you around nobody will dare touch me. This is a temporary truce though okay? After this, we’re back to being enemies again.” You grumbled as you wrapped your arms around the man, tightly hugging him.
Toji chuckled, “Sure baby whatever you want. Let me go wear my clothes,” he mumbled and walked towards his room.
“Now Let’s go remind a filthy bug his place,” He spoke as he walked outside his room, supporting a mad grin on his face. You were feeling excited. You were never allowed to watch Toji or Shiu during their missions so this was a thrilling moment for you.
You sat in the car outside the club with Toji.
You felt anxious, your hands were trembling but you tried your best to conceal them from him.
Toji noticed it and grasped your shaking hands. “You’re okay doll. I’ll make sure of that. When I’m here you never need to feel scared or worry,” he assured you. You gave him a tense smile.
“Let’s go hm?” He said as he patted your head. He got out of the car and opened the door for you. “Lead the way, sweetheart,” He flashed you a smile.
Toji clasped your hand with his and walked with you inside the ongoing party. “Do you see him?” Toji whispered to you. Your eyes darted across the club and saw the guy flirting with a woman. You pointed at the man.
Toji nodded, his eyes filled with unbridled rage. He took long strides toward the man and questioned, “Is this him?”
“Yes,” You responded with a shaky sigh. Toji grabbed the man by his shirt and threw him on the floor. Everyone stopped what they were doing and stared at him. Nobody dared to stop him. Who would? He was toji fushiguro, the crazy hitman.
Toji paid no heed to the attention and dragged the dude outside the club by his shirt. He picked him up and slammed him on the ground again.
“Motherfucker, do you know who I am?” Toji asked as his foot made its way to the man’s crotch. The man pleaded to leave him alone but toji just chuckled and kicked him in the crotch area making the man cry out in pain.
He roughly grabbed the man’s face and pointed towards you. “Do you know who she is?” He questioned. The man was hesitant to reply but nodded his head.
Toji punched the man in his face. “I repeat, do you know who she is?” The now bruised ugly man cried in agony. “I know!” He screamed. Toji looked satisfied with his answer. The man looked at you pleadingly but you just looked away from him.
“Now do you know what the Kong clan is?” He asked in amusement. The man shivered at the mention of the Kong clan. “Ho-w co-uld I n-ot kn-ow?” His voice trembled as he spoke.
Toji chuckled. “She is the clan leader’s sister. Someone you dared to lay your disgusting eyes on. I’m tempted to gouge your eyes out but I will leave that to her brother.” He got up and stepped on his lower body, basically crushing his balls.
The man wailed, feeling excruciating pain. He screamed your name, cursing you out. You giggled at the sight. You walked up to Toji and casually stomped your foot on his chest. “Serves you right,” You spoke with a smile as you grabbed Toji’s arm.
“Toji can we leave now? Order one of the brothers ’ lackeys to lock him up. You and Brother Shiu can deal with him later,” You grumbled, feeling very tired.
“Sure dollie. I’ll text the clean-up guy.” He replied.
You let out a yawn and leaned against Toji. “M’so sleepy.” It took you a good two business days to realize what you just did. You jumped away from him and looked at his arm in disgust. “Let’s never talk about this day ever again.”
“Aww is the mean version of you back again? I preferred when you acted all cute and cozy with me.” Toji teasingly said to you.
You glared at him. “I forgot how insufferable you were for a minute.” “Oh baby I wished that you would forget about that,” He mockingly voiced.
“Oh baby meh meh meh,” you mimicked his voice and stuck your tongue out at him. Toji leaned forward and entangled your tongue with his, essentially pulling you in for a kiss.
He softly wrapped his hand around your neck as he kissed you. Your hands roamed all over his body and made their way to his butt and you squeezed it. Toji furrowed his brows and broke away from the kiss leaving a string of saliva between you two.
“You’re awfully kinky, aren’t you? I’m not into butt stuff but this,” Toji said as he led your hand to his crotch. “I’m into this. Touch it all you want, Dollie.”
You scrunch your nose. “Didn’t you just have sex with a girl? I’m not trying to catch a std from you.”
Toji burst out laughing. “I’ll get tested today then let’s do it tomorrow.” You hit him on the chest, “You’re nasty.” “Nasty for you.” He said with a wink.

on phandom whiteness, race and stereotypes
I've been meaning to make this post for a while. I have never been very active in this fandom space, and part of that has been due to a discomfort I have felt that i have never felt i could discuss openly. So while I want to be a part of this phandom, I need to adress the elephant in the room and I want this sideblog I created to be a space where others like me can feel safe to voice their feelings and thoughts.
To preface this, I am not looking to "cancel" dan and phil. I just want to talk about my experiences both as a hardcore phan for years, and as someone who deviates from the usual dnp fan: I'm not a white person from Europe, US, Canada.
To put it bluntly, some of their videos are extremely hard to watch and enjoy and it makes me feel alienated when no one talks about it. There is no media without "problematic" elements, but I feel like in other fandom spaces people at least talk about elements worth questioning because they may be offensive or ignorant.* And yet dan and phil are hailed as "unproblematic kings" when this is not the case at all, and it's hard to bring up how I feel.
I'm not looking to make a comprehensive list of everything they've said, but I will talk about a few examples to illustrate what I mean.
Sexy Internet Dating (1:59-2:03)
d: whats yo name
p: i like how the guinea pig is now a sassy black woman
A Day in the Life of Phil and Dan! (3:58-4:03)
p: Suncream d: suncream for your albino face p: yea d: i don't need it because i'm already black
Does anyone remember the Mexican Dan thing? He seems to have deleted most of the things associated with that period where he was tan and "jokingly" fancied himself a different race because of it but this little window to that time remains in one of the most beloved videos of all time. Can you see how this might be hard to watch? When even the most iconic videos they've made are sprinkled with little instances of ignorant comments like this?
And let me be clear, I know this was ages ago. I'm aware they might have grown and changed. What really gets to me is how nobody in the phandom ever talks about these moments. It makes me really lonely and disappointed that everyone turns a blind eye to things that might tarnish the image of their faves.
Like for example, the pewdiepie situation. I'm not going to discuss everything he did and said. But imagine how it might feel as a non-white fan to want to rewatch old dnpgames videos and find that they kept their videos with him up all this time:
youtube
They were clearly quite friendly with F*lix. Besides these videos, Felix is also casually mentioned in some of their videos and livestreams from the time before he was "cancelled" (more on that later). But did they ever say anything condemning his actions? I think that given how they had collaborated and were friends, I would expect them to say SOMETHING rather than just never speak on the matter (as far as I know, the closest they got to this was in a liveshow where dan said he had had "a conversation" with felix in a way that implied he disapproved of his actions.) Or at the very very least, is it really that hard to delete a video? They have deleted old videos for a variety of reasons. How is collabing with a known racist not reason enough to go through the trouble of deleting a video? But deleting other videos just because they're a bit"cringey" is worth that time?
I just wonder how regretful they really are at having been friends and collaborators with him. In fact, part of me wonders if they are still friends behind the scenes. If this is ever confirmed btw, that will cause me to stop watching them forever. And they might still be friends in their little white circle for all we know. After all dan and phil are long time friends of KickthePj. And PJ is STILL friends with pewdiepie.
Now, besides PJ being dnp's friend and having once been part of the phantastic foursome, I don't care much for his content except for when dan and phil have been featured (lol sorry not sorry). And this might be the case for many of you as well! But some of you ARE avid kickthepj fans and decided to ignore the fact that he uploaded a video with pewdiepie last month. There is no plausible deniability here anymore. Despite the harms pewdiepie has done in internet spaces--and how that extends to real life--NOBODY said anything about how kickthepj doesn't care enough (or at all) to simply NOT make a video with pewdiepie.
It's staggering to me that no one cares. It's shocking to me that in these videos i've mentioned, you go to the comment section and everyone will be happily enjoying the video with no mention of these things.
Is this what being "cancelled" looks like? It seems to me like with the passage of time, Pewdiepie and his friends and followers just want to sweep it all under the rug. How is it that the internet will tear a man to shreds for plagiarism but then find it in themselves to excuse racism?
Why does no one care? Is it because this space is overwhelmingly white? I think so. I think it's a conscious choice to turn a blind eye when it's convenient. So I just wanted to make this post to say that if you ever feel alienated by the white ignorance of dnp or their circle of their fans, then you can come talk to me and I won't ignore you.
I want to be a part of this phandom, I really love dan and phil, but I'm not going to "stan" them. I'm not going to make excuses for them. And I'm not going to keep quiet just so I can be a part of this fandom without making the vast majority of white fans uncomfortable.
*I'm thinking of my experiences in the supernatural fandom. (Although, i'm not saying it's perfect. There are certainly a number of fics that have made me feel very disappointed inthe creator for falling into the trap of racial stereotypes in OCs and stuff like that, and despite that so many people enjoy it and include it in rec lists.)

Optimism freeform meta
Tumblr media
Jack, Harper, and the folly of pursuing of immature, illusory Perfection as the antidote to life's many disappointments.
///
Okay, here it comes. It's our rambling, group Optimism meta from discord that I promised once upon a time I'd post here. Apologies ahead of time if I get your Tumblr names wrong.
Harper's flat is decorated in ooey-gooey symbols of love.
Green for growth (though Harper's growth pattern is certainly arrested), and red for passion. We have the green-Italian amore in the symbolic kitchen of life, and a bright red heart near the entrance.
BEWARE: You're entering Harper's heart. It's black and bloody.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
We also see that her home is full to the brim with books and stories. She clings to them, hoping they'll bring her life meaning. The blood-red-pink-purple color theme continues in the form of her array of romance novels.
Tumblr media
Harper herself is clothed in red, in a Sayles-coded corduroy, perhaps a mate to the hunter's anorak jacket. Her little scarf is certainly Scooby-Doo-Daphne-esque, but it's also a RED BANDANA calling to mind that she's an OUTLAW, like Dave Matthews in the Tombstone episode.
///
Tumblr media
But her bedroom is more serene, stuffed with zen colors, serene green, and a bedful of childish stuff animals. It's dominated by strong protector-types like lions and elephants.
via @honeyedwhiskey: okay so I got intrigued by the fact that she has these particular stuffed animals. the lion, symbolizing stalking her prey, elephants for their memory and their brutality (maybe a nod to wanting community) and the tiger for her actual isolation. the puppy seems to be an older addition, maybe from childhood, and the smallest and most vulnerable one is being protected by the dog which seems to be a bear cub? reference to maybe a mama bear that protected her? the three at the top are what interest me the most though because harper is represented by the heart and the color red so the mouse is her, and the two pigs seem to be her parents, with one being a combination of colors and patchwork looking. so it seems to me that one of her parents was zombie-fied, maybe from a young age.
I like the symbolic nature Whiskey acribed to the stuffed animals above a lot!
I too think her reaction to abandonment and Vance speaks to something really fucked up in her necromancy family, like maybe a necromancy-coming-of-age-trial that went REALLY REALLY badly and wound up with her being totally alone.
Maybe it's like how Sam jokingly told Charlie: "You're not really a hunter till you've come back form the dead." Or like Cas told Jack of his own death, "It's something of a rite of passage around here."
Maybe you're not really a necromancer until you've killed and brought your family back and ofc Harper failing that test would fuck her up forever.
//
I noticed the teddy bear, too! There's a tee-tiny nod to the teddy-bear lovers' symbol above her bed, same as Marvelous Marvin has a red heart on his chest in season 15's Gimme Shelter. (And Dean's I Wuv Hugs from a million years ago.)
[The stuffed bear is] a simultaneous motif...of sexual intimacy and The Lover, it's also representative of The Beloved Child resulting from their contact.
(Jack is Marvin.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
///
Tumblr media
Here's love in the corner, illuminated by two lamps. Harper is getting Jack a book, a book about her little beloved hometown, McCook.
Deep down, Harper is lonely, and unlike her disdain for her other suitors, she's a little different with Jack here: she wants to be understood.
She wants him to understand her and her hometown. Just a little. She's prodding at the niggling, unusual, UNFAMILIAR feeling. So, she sits down and invites him to sit, to learn more about her.
By this point, it's possible she's figured out he's a hunter, which opens up the possibility of revealing her true self, for better or for worse. It's an intoxicating thought for Harper.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Jack hesitates, clearly interested but also a little bit "!!!!"
He's framed by the heart on the wall. Indeed Jack, like Dean and Mary, is a "heart" character. He's even clothed in one of Mary's key colors: dusky orangey pink. (Aside// You'll notice Connor also wears this color in Gimme Shelter.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
///
Unlike in Tombstone, where Jack wasn't (via script) all that interested in Athena and Dave's relationship, now Jack's clearly grown. He's even interested in physicality.
Even though his emotional core can be kinda prickly, like Dean and Mary, he's at root a very affectionate character, interested in experience affection/connection with others:
Tumblr media
So, he sits. Perseveres through he awkwardness. And lo and behold, Harper is as weird as he is.
They talk about having a positive outlook, even though they've had and terrible pasts, have done terrible things. And hey, look--she's getting the lamp treatment! How lovely.
They sit on the blue couch, as Harper tells him more about her past, subconsciously seeking his acceptance. The blue of the couch mirrors the blue color of her past, of her prom dress. We see her little prom queen crown, and we wonder...Harper is so awkward...
...does she really seem like the Prom Queen type?
Tumblr media
I suspect it was fake. That she manufactured her own popularity with bit of magic. To meet the perfectionistic obsession with her romance tales. She is at core a fearful character, fearful of messing up, or being imperfect, of not living up to The Dream (TM).
///
Tumblr media
Jack makes a quick getaway. In this shot, he's effectively the trope of the divine masculine, fleeing from love, "amore."
It's interesting that the kitchen, a bit like the bedroom, is earthier in tone, filled with more "valley" colors: of browns, greens. The kitchen is about the imperfect strivings of every day life, divorced from the high-dollar reds of Harper's romance-novel decor.
In the bathroom, Jack is clearly interested in exploring "love."
To Dean, he says, "Just in case (she is in love with me)...tell me everything you know about sex. Go!"
Jack is a curious-and-courageous character, too. He's prone to experimentation, which is also why he so often gets the drug ("I like cocaine!" and The Who) motifs. Like Cas, he's maybe a little scared, but he's going to go-for-it no matter how silly and awkward he might look.
That courage is probably something Harper senses in him. It's attractive to her, like the symbolic stuffed-animal lion-and-tiger protectors she has in her bedroom. She wonders:
"Is he strong enough to love the real me?"
In THIS sense, the thing with Vance isn't completely "a naughty nurse game." Deep down, at her root psychological base, Harper is testing the potential lovers' strength. Very classically mythical, really. And she's disgusted by her suitors because they keep failing and failing.
No one is like Vance. Not even Vance is like Vance. Her idea of Vance was never real, and she was never prom queen. But admitting that to herself is so painful, she constructs this horrible pattern of death and destruction.
///
"Her apartment has a lot of wallpaper/furniture from the 50’s! Or with that general aesthetic!" -Cal (@13-01)
It's so interesting, because this 50s retro theme is something that Jack, Dean, and Cas carry a lot, especially in terms of their "old-school" button-up pajamas and dressing downs. (Cas himself, with his overcoat, could be plopped in the middle of Mad Men tv series and fit into the surroundings, haha. And although we rarely see Sam carry the motif, but he dips into it in Peace of Mind as well.)
At the end of this episode, we'll see Harper seated in her own retro cafe with the same 50s vibe as well, a Charming Acres-sort of feeling. To me this symbolizes a backwards-looking illusion of perfection, that everything used to be simpler and better, and with enough effort, it can be simpler and better again.
Also there are dragonflies in her bathroom, a bit of a parallel to the lonesome fly plot that Sam and Charlie are on (in this same episode).
This too is the backwards-looking motif, of holding onto the illusory idea of Happiness (TM) so tightly that it becomes tragic and destructive.
///
Since even her idea of Vance isn't real, it's become like Amara's illusory idea of love. It can never let her down. "It can never hurt her."

pets i think the main 5 would have
cartman
he would definitely have a cat (or 3)
he’s like a crazy cat lady and all his cats are really mean lol
They’re all fat too because he spoils them
He’s not great with animals but he’s not terrible either
he just loses his temper a lot (judging by how he was with mr. kitty)
also i wish fluffy would make a return
stan
he ends up with a number of pets
i like to hdc he majors in animal science and he ends up nursing a lot of animals back to health
he’s been banned from animal shelters by his friends because he adopts like al the pets in there (exaggerating ofc)
but he’s awful at naming them
they’re all either the most basic dog/cat names out there or they’re human names
like he has a snake named Joe and a lizard named Michael or something
probably named his dog rover or smth basic (he’s not too creative)
kyle
i don’t care what you say kyle is a fan of animals (let’s not forget his elephant. also there was a clip of gerald walking a dog that i saw so maybe they have one?)
but kyle wanted a dog (he’s not a cat guy) so when he was moved out and had the money he was looking for a dog that would actually run with him
he ends up getting a german short haired pointer/german shepherd mix
he named it bucky because he’s one of those marvel fans lmao
he wanted a dog that would run around with him but also a dog that would calm down when he wanted it to
so after a lot of training he got exactly that lol
kenny
kenny would have really exotic animals
he has an ant farm (which is just ants he collected around the house)
he would probably have rats and mice aa well
he befriended an opossum so there was that as well
he makes up funny names for all his animals
its like the most random shit like he’ll just be all ‘oh yeah this is william snakespeare and alexander rattington IV’
he’s pretty okay with animals tbh
butters
butters would live on a farm as an adult i just know it
he adopts a border collie and names it waffles
he loves the cuter animals. he raises chicks and bunnies and names them all just really random shit
He also adopts three kittens to act as mice patrol in his barn
he probably names them after breakfast foods too
so he just has cats named pancake, toast and bacon
he names his farm animals really randomly though like he did in fun with veal
he has cows, chicks, bunnies, pigs donkeys, ponies, you name it.
i like to hdc he finds a good job that pays REALLY well (because he’s butters of course he would find a job like that) and he wants to buy things that make him happy. like animals.
he donates a lot to animal shelters and anti abuse organizations too
really random but was thinking about it because i’m making kyle have a dog in my comic lmao

I still think about this everyday
Fun fact about sound editing:
In Jurassic Park, they used multiple animal sounds to recreate the roars of dinosaurs. The T-Rex got a baby elephant to sample its sound for the T-Rex's infamous roar.
In the ROTTMNT Movie, I believe they did something similar to give us the Kraang. In my opinion, I think they used pig, crows, and/or parrots. Something to get that squeal. But for Kraang Raph, it sounds like an adult elephant. Similar but deeper to match Raph. They may have also used an overlay method as seen for the clicker zombie in The Last Of Us. But these are simply my observations.
If you remember my CAS Kraangified comic dub, I used that method whilst sampling my own voice and will continue producing samples as I start my Feral Casey AU comic.

Into, Across and Beyond! Cast: The Smiling Critters (or "Smiling Buddies")
Please refer to the below post as well:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(Attached link is for both halves of the art, designed by togebora)
A colourful band of friends, these are who you may (or may not) know as the Smiling Critters! Well, they are different in the IAB! continuity than you may know them in Poppy Playtime, especially over in Dimension MP-2021, where their roles are most prominent.
In this universe, they are NOT fictional characters from a TV show or toy lineup, but they are instead real characters in-universe who co-exist alongside everyone else in MP-2021. As it happened, all eight had applied for Bumper High School at the beginning of One More Hero and were getting ready to study alongside OMT!Tails and the ApocalypseTitan kid characters.
Daylight the Pup (DogDay)
The leader of the friend group and one of the most optimistic of the eight. He's shown to be very loyal to his friends, and he's one of the first OMT!Tails passes by on the open week at the school.
Bubba the Elephant (Bubba Bubbaphant)
The blue elephant member and one of the top students in classes, up there with OMT!Tails (mainly in math and science) and Max Cartwright. He's naturally smart and has a really good memory for things, and he's sometimes about to keep check on the below-mentioned petition and see how it's coming along.
Kickroyale the Chicken (Kickin' Chicken)
The yellow chicken member who is full of radical attitude for those around him and can be pretty smug about stuff. Though it does cause trouble on occasion for those around him, he's still got a good heart, and he's a bit of a softie deep down. Though he is the "cool kid" of his gang, he is pretty prone to fear, and is open to asking others for help if he really needs it.
As it happens, in One More Hero, he's the first to come to OMT!Tails and Bobby's aid when Benny starts bullying them for the heck of it (and even had the gall to mock Bobby's all-loving status), and he kept his trap shut when Richard attacked the school in More than One Universe to avoid being noticed.
Picky Patch the Pig (PickyPiggy)
The pink pig member and the big eater of the bunch. Contrary to her name, she isn't picky, but she enjoys lunchtimes at school and usually picks something filling and healthy to have for her daily meals. Of course, she can be picky about trying light snacks or fast foods, due to not wanting to be unhealthy in her life.
Picky is also one of the most optimistic and level-headed in the group, and is there to calm the others down if things are getting out of hand. And out of the goodness in her heart, when she heard that OMT!Tails was off sick, she shared some apples she had picked from an orchard for him to enjoy.
Hoppy Scotch the Bunny (Hoppy Hopscotch)
The green rabbit member and the most excitable of the bunch. She gives a lot of enthusiasm to friends around her, though can come off as loud or impatient sometimes because of this, so she does make time to slow down for her friends.
Of the bunch, she was one of the bigger fans of OMT!Sonic when he was still alive, and aspired to be able to run fast like him, hence her decision to ask OMT!Tails to give running or hopping a shot with her whenever they got the chance to hang out.
Crafty "CraftyCorn" Canvas the Unicorn
The white, yet colourful, unicorn member and one of the more shy members. She is shy around meeting new people, but especially enjoys art and the vast wonders it can create. As an aspiring artist, she finds it very important to share the art she creates with others and finding beauty in pretty much anything around her.
She's the Smiling Buddy who has the most influence in points of One More Hero's plot, as she had heard about the rising prevalence of AI in art theft and disliked the idea, so she enlisted OMT!Tails's help to go and get people to sign her petition to make AI art outright illegal in Dimension MP-2021.
OMT!Tails did find some difficulty in getting all the required signatures at first, but when the alternate crew from the Blur Gang came along, that's when he made excellent progress, and he handed the finished petition back to Crafty at the end of the story for her to put forward. She even painted a picture of him (including one with his nano-suit) and sent it to him as a thank you for what he did.
Bobby Hugster the Bear (Bobby Bearhug)
The young red bear member and the all-loving part of the gang. She's a young girl who shows love and compassion for pretty much anybody, no matter who they are. However, this all-loving status doesn't come without its flaws, as it leaves her vulnerable to bullying, which she wouldn't have made it through if not for people like OMT!Tails and Kickroyale having her back.
In One More Hero, she's the first to see how nervous Tails is about settling into his new school in those next six months, and offers him some starting companionship while he gets to grips with the place. And once she heard about what went down with Uma, she's the first to comfort OMT!Tails once he returns to the school dorms, knowing just how difficult it must be for him to cope with.
Of course, thanks to her being there whilst OMT!Tails was being comforted by the Blur Gang, it meant she also got caught up in the crazy hide-and-seek when Danny entered the room, and then pinned in the room with OMT!Tails when the Blur Gang headed out to shut down Eggman Nega's invention themselves, though she was freed once Tails got his heroic second wind.
Naksh the Cat (CatNap)
The last member of the Smiling Buddies, and arguably the one who's changed THE MOST from his original counterpart. He's not constantly sleepy, but he is selectively mute and hasn't smiled a lot, even when with his friends. He had a rough home life and finds comfort in being around people who genuinely get it.
He does show up to help comfort OMT!Tails after Uma is hospitalised, though due to being more nervous, he doesn't stick around after the Blur Gang arrive at his dorm, though does show fascination when he witnesses proof of the multiverse from them.
Through this knowledge, he saw about his portrayals from Playtime Co. and the horrors of the factory, and isn't afraid to show his dislike for BOTH portrayals, feeling they don't capture who he really is at all.
And in general...
Each of them enjoy being around OMT!Tails and have all supported him from the sidelines in his quest to protect Mobius from destruction at the hands of crazed villains. Though their roles are not as major as anyone from the Blur Gang, Quill Society or rogues gallery, they all still make sure to do their part where it counts.
Small Note
For all you Poppy Playtime fans that saw this post and liked it, welcome to my blog, where I post stuff related to a story based on Spider-Verse, but with hedgehogs, foxes and other characters from the Sonic multiverse. Be sure to stick around here to see more!
And as a side-note to you guys, the Smiling Critters (who I'll admit are my personal favourites from the game) are going to be the ONLY representation of Poppy Playtime in ALL of IAB!. That means the rest of the characters are absent in Dimension MP-2021 outright.

I also feel like The Noise has this thing that he calls "going feral" and basically goes on a rampage. I've talked about it before but like-
He absolutely goes on a riot; running on all fours, frothing at the mouth, growling, snarling, biting, stabbing, and destroying everything in his path. It just happens sometimes.
Cars are flipped, buildings are on fire, people are injured, and even some dead.
It got to a point where he built up a tolerance to tasers. The Pig City police have to use elephant tranquilizer or drop a comically large cage on him.
He has also managed to steal a police car. So there's that.

MORE ELDRITCH KÖNIG WITH KORTAC:
(Thank you @artbythedarkside because you reignited this flame, also, credit to them for inspiring some of these)
Since KorTac provides König with bodies to eat, they are technically giving him human sacrifices
A byproduct of this is now König is kind of indebted to KorTac so he stays
But it’s definitely more of, you keep giving me food so I’ll stay and play nice but i won’t hesitate to kill you if a better deal comes along
That being said, he is definitely more loyal to the operators than KorTac itself.
Their relationship with him is odd
Like, they understand he could kill them whenever he wanted but they can’t wrap their heads around it
Like when the sweetest person is suddenly convicted of a crime
He’s the only member to get along with everyone, even if he hasn’t really tried to or had made some major mistakes
They eventually got him to come out of his shell a little and this was through physical affection
Declan would smack his back after a good mission, Stilletto and Fender would pay his shoulder and back, Hutch would grab his hand and pay his arm, Horangi…well he’s weird
Horangi probably helped the most with König’s weird urges (not nsfw hold on)
See, König sees the operators more as cats/pets rather than actual human beings.
Not derogatory or anything, but he thinks that their squishiness is cute and how breakable they are is funny
Like how elephants think of people like people think of dogs
It’s actually why he can come off as socially anxious, he is worry about that but it’s a lot of him reminding himself that he can’t just mess and touch people
He really wants to pet their heads, ruffle their hair, squish their faces and sometimes squeeze them to death
Sometimes he has the urge to snap them in half cause their cute
He thinks this with everyone, anyone and everyone. For some reason the urge is stronger with Ghost and Callisto. Probably because they will fight back the most
Horangi helped a lot by instigating lots of physical affection
Laying in him, leaning on him, CLIMBING on him, petting his head and patting his nonexistent cheeks
König is incredibly protective of what he believes is his and if that is threatened, he will do whatever it takes to protect it
This is especially true with Horangi since they are a thing
Surprisingly, Horangi is the dominant one in the relationship and both have staked a claim on each other
If on base, König will wear a collar under his hood. Not for anything sex related (mostly) but its mostly just satisfying to be the only one to know König is wearing it
Horangi got piercings. Idk what else to say, they’re permanent, beautiful, and make him extra sensitive
Over time Horangi’s body started to change because of their bond and he becomes his summoner skin
Everyone just rolls with it and König thinks it super hot. They have a very healthy stable relationship
That being said, König is INCREDIBLY picky about the people he surrounds himself with.
If he doesn’t like you, you’re done.
At first when he was new, he ignored the assholes because of his rank, but that quickly changed
The Eldritch beings like him are very violent and harsh beings, so when he doesn’t like something he will lash out and hurt you
And be prepared because there is one warning and they are not always that easy to spot.
It is highly unlikely that he will ever act out against any members of KorTac, because they treat him well, when they could treat him badly
That being said, if he is offended he will say so
Despite having to learn about the more subtle nuances of living like a human, he can blend in very well to a stranger
Once you spend time with him, it becomes more clear he is not from wherever he is at that point
For a long time he watched people from his world
He was summoned for a military project that did succeed (he’s still there are serving so…)
But they didn’t give him an any food so he ate some of the workers there
When summoning König, one needs pigs blood to draw the summoning circle, to say the proper words and (most importantly) a human sacrifice(s), eight octopi, and two hearts.
Summoning a creature of König level requires 5 sacrifices and no less.
The whole thing is very tiring for him and leaves him as vulnerable as he can be (which is not very)
When retelling the story of his summons, he was questioned by Zeus if he would ever turn on them
He said ‘I would turn on KorTac easily, you all, not so much.’
His masks are incredibly important for him to keep his shape. His body needs an outlet or some part to be more free, that’s were his masks come in
He can keep a stable fully human shape for 5 hours max but after that he gets super exhausted and things get weird
However, this 5 hours is under extremely controlled circumstances, on a mission he can comfortably do 3 hours
In the case that his masks are ripped, cut, shredded, burned, or damaged in some way that reveals his face, problems occur quickly
The short version, things begin to leak
The void usually kept under control in his hood and balaclava leaks, multiple eyes will look out of the void, sharp teeth and multiple smiles, an eye with multiple irises, his neck will open up and in the middle is his giant mouth.
He also becomes mentally unstable and paranoid.
All in all, not a fun experience for anyone
He can keep his eyes and use his tentacles (like some fanart where he lifts his mask and stares with his tentacles out)
It is just more difficult to eat people and he mostly uses that form for intimidation and not much else

Not my idea of a good time
I had my breast biopsy today. Not my idea of a good time but manageable. 3-5 days for results. For the 2nd mammogram they had the air conditioner blowing directly on me while getting my boobs squished. This time the waiting room was freezing. They put all of the robes on the very cold windowsill. It was like putting on an ice cube. Perhaps irrationally sitting half naked in a frozen robe made me ragey. Its already uncomfortable to have someone numb your breast to take a small piece from the inside. Anyway an oversight, I'm sure. All of the staff was very kind. Don't feel too worried about the results but will be glad to have it over with.
The little free library on our shelf had a bunch of Piggie and Elephant books. Baby boy was dying laughing. I told him the Pig and the Elephant were best friends and asked him if wanted the pig or the elephant as his best friend. He said "No I want a cow to be my best friend. A vaca (spanish word for cow)." Kids are so funny.
My husband is reading Harry Potter to the girls. All three of them are loving it. We are all into Percy Jackson - including the new Disney show. The newest episode was in the Arch - which we did over Christmas break.
I don't want to jinx us but baby boy seems to have gotten daytime potty training down. Thank goodness. I mean its not 100% down until I don't have to think about it at all. Which is not the case. I still need to bring an extra outfit in case + some reminders if he's doing something fun. But generally he's got the idea. I don't really care about night time potty training. It will happen naturally whenever it does. No way I'm waking him up in the middle of the night to make that happen. Sleep above all else in this house.
Still no services at the school. The women in charge of finding providers seemed to be confident she could find him PT two times a week within the next week or two. She upped his SEIT (individual masters degree special ed teacher) from seven hours to ten hours in hopes that would bring a provider who wants the job. She said if that doesn't work she would add in the enhanced rate to draw in someone else. Fingers crossed.

Yo, hey, also, if you're an anxious and/or stressed LGBTQ+ person like myself, and like little games about tasks, like Stardew Valley or My Time at Portia or stuff like that, check out Hokko Life.
It's one of those cute little "do things" games, and there are some things about it that I really, really love:
In a lot of these games, there's a set town structure and cast of characters. In Hokko, there are some keystone elements. But each save file has a different "town area" map that you get to build and expand your little town into. There are two residents to begin with, other than you and the shopkeepers in the main town area (separate), and THOSE COULD BE DIFFERENT. From what I can tell, there are at least 4 possible starter residents, and you can get different combinations per save file.
The days are looooooooooong. This is different from Stardew, for example, where you can feel really pressed to "get everything done" in one day. In Hokko, you have PLENTY of time. And you have the option to take a li'l nap at your house if you want to, so you can skip 2 hours or 6 hours without losing the whole damn day. Or just...take a lil nap.
There are NO GENDER OPTIONS in character creator. You start with the same starter outfit, and have 100% of the starter customization options. Everyone calls you "they/them." A good number of the residents are "they/them." You are just...nonbinary/gender neutral/agender. Periodt.
You are the only humanoid. Everyone else is basically stuffed animals. The first folks you meet are a pink elephant who looks like she maybe has vitiligo and a giraffe with a general store who has extremely Dad Jokes Energy. There are all kinds of other interesting animal folks with different personalities. My game has a green emo/skater pig who seems like they might be a stoner and possibly vegan. Definitely cares about their carbon footprint.
Everything is SO CHILL. There's not really energy to manage or anything, you don't get hungry, you don't have to run around making sure you talk to everybody enough so you don't get less popular. Even if you fail a task for a resident...nothing bad happens. Or at least, that I can tell so far. Just like, whoops. Couldn't find that fish. Oh well. I can make you that paint, though. No worries. All good.
When you DO complete tasks, you get clothing items. And like...the first one I got was a "striped skirt" or something. And I was like, "Oh, that looks kinda-sorta-almost like a nonbinary pride flag. Cool." And then I got some yellow shoes, and a red jacket. And then a "Happy Knit Sweater," which was DEFINITELY ABSOLUTELY a trans pride flag pattern! And then a tee shirt with rainbow sleeves and a rainbow pocket? So like...THEY GIVE YOU LGBTQ+ PRIDE MERCH FOR YOUR LI'L NONBINARY PAL. And then I realized I very much had trans flag wallpaper in my house. 😂 I freaking love this.
You can MAKE YOUR OWN FURNITURE. There's a whole subset of customization and item creation where you can just...design your own furniture and decorative items from almost scratch. You unlock sets of shapes for the crafting & design table, and then you can go into a 3D design space and just...put some wooden spheres together however you want! Add a leaf shape! Put a brass "7" on it! Go crazy! And then you get to save your design and you can craft it again later if you want to make more, or sell them. It just...becomes an item in your game.
The music is super chill. Because of course.
The fishing system is good, for the way I like to play. It's very easy to see the fish, it's very easy to know when you need to "hook/catch," and following the system to reel in is easy to understand. It requires a little effort, it's not an auto-catch, but it's not stressful. It's a TASK, but not a HEADACHE. And you can do it without bait and still be fine.
There's a whole entire thing around catching butterflies. You can just frolic around all day in your pride-wear catching butterflies if you want. It's lovely.
You can save and exit at any point. SUPER IMPORTANT. Can't tell you how many times I've felt some stress about like, "AAAARRRGGGHHH, I have to get to a good spot to stop this Stardew day, or just start over again..." Nah. Hokko, you just hit escape, "Save & Exit." When you load up again, you'll be in your house, with the same stuff on hand/in your backpack.
I actually kinda also like that there doesn't seem to be a romance component? Like, that's neat and all when it is available, but I don't always want the townsfolk coming onto me just because I've given them sufficient eggs or whatever. I might have needed to do those quests to advance the plot, or get a new shovel or something. And maybe I'm not actually down to clown, homie.
Anyway, I'm thoroughly enjoying this game. Got it in the Steam Sale. I think it's not crazy expensive even regular price? My one issue that I'm running into is that the wiki for it is like...zero content. Or just not much in-depth stuff beyond the very bare basics for some of it. So when I want info or hit a snag, I been using Duck Duck Go on that biz, or hitting the Steam Forums. Not the worst thing in the world.

Got the Christmas tree decorated last night. Here are some of my favorite ornaments:

The cardinals came from my mom. They've been my favorite ornaments for as long as I remember. They've also been gay married as long as I can remember. My dad used to move one of them and claimed it "migrated." I always pointed out that cardinals don't migrate.
My mom sewed the owls and the flying pig. And an old family friend (seriously, I remember watching Return of the Jedi at their house when I was 3 or 4...back before every home had a VCR) made the eggs. I can't remember if she was a professional egger or if it was just a hobby but I remember her workshop was huge and she had display cabinets full of all kinds of eggs, from ostrich eggs to tiny quail eggs, decorated in all sorts of styles and turned into jewelry boxes and lamps and such.
The elephant and the red horse we bought at World Market back when we still had a store nearby (does this store even still exist?). And the zebra rocking horse is a Hallmark ornament.
