valentine's day with the yjs ୧ 💌 ୨

cw: pretty much just fluff !!! may have swear words included tho ??

a/n: made this for me and everyone else who's single on valentine's day too :l hope this make you all feel a lil better and ily mwah mwah, happy ( early ) valentine's day babes <3

NATALIE SCATORCCIO

- pretends she hates valentines day and everything that has to do it but deep down she adores it

- will stand awkwardly looking at the different kind of chocolates and sweets and being like "uhmmmm.....reeses are never a bad option i guess?" ALSO I FEEL LIKE she'd ask other people buying stuff for their partners what they're gonna get them cuz she's so confused 😭

- we all know she's a sucker for kisses, cuddles, holding hands, AAAANYTHING that has to do with physical touch but hates showing it so i think she'd use valentine's day as an excuse to be publicly affectionate a bit

- ok that's all i might add more later on

JACKIE TAYLOR

- she's OBSESSED with holidays and celebrations, whether it's valentine's day, christmas, anything

- waking you up at like 7am and being like "hi hi valentine hey you're my valentine it's time to wake up my valentine" while shaking you and smooching you all over

- she's never letting go of you on vday. always clinging by your side, holding your other hand while you're brushing your teeth, talking to you from outside of the door while you're on the toilet, hugging you by the waist when you're cooking

- wearing ridiculous matching outfits with her in PUBLIC. i feel like she'd have those shirts that say "their queen" AND YOU "her king/queen/monarch(☠️)" OR GETTING YOU THOSE SILLY LIL HEADBANDS THINGIES WITH THE JIGGLY HEARTS..

- knows exactly what to buy you and she's already gotten everything prepared😭 it's adorable cause she'll give you a gift of something you forgot you wanted and you're just sitting there standing like :O

SHAUNA SHIPMAN

- ditches you for jackie. end.

- JK. i think she'd just treat it like a regular day honestly

- gets you a chocolate and calls it a day but not in a bad way??? LIKE she already loves you and does a lot of things to show it so she doesn't really think valentine's day is necessary

LOTTIE MATTHEWS

- she's suuuuuuuuch a softie for showing you off and getting to shower you with gifts :(

- she wouldn't wanna go out too much, she'd probably have everything set out already. your gifts hiding in the closet, your sweets hidden in the fridge, everything prepared and on point

- i feel like since some of the yjs were mean to her and telling her to just stop talking and stuff, she'd be kinda closed off at the start and she'd be scared to show you how much she loves and adores you, but then when she sees that you accept and give her the same love back and even more she's SOOOO hyper

- writes you cheesy letters that you keep in your drawer forever and probably even little drawings of your favourite things or you and her 😭

VAN PALMER

- THE SILLY!!!!!MAI SILLY!!!DE SILLY!!!:DD

- arcade dates w them on valentine's day or going like on an amusement park☝️☝️

- they'd go print out some silly t-shirts for y'all... like "i love my van" with a picture of a van LMAOO and they'd make you wear it all the time

- if you want to do smth on that day, you BET you will. they'll never let you down i SWEAR they're the sweetest pookiest babiest to ever exist :(((((((((

TAISSA TURNER

- hates valentine's day more than anything... "what the fuck im NOT wearing that" when you ask her to match outfits with you but does it anyway

- she's miserable doing anything on valentine's day cause she thinks it's cringe but warms up to it when she sees how happy it makes you

- she's the girl that said "happy wife happy life" btw so she'll do anything u ask her to no matter how much she despises it which is.. a lot probably

- gets you a chocolate and takes 2 hours to decide if she should write you a corny letter with it and she scribbles down some ideas but then just puts :)

LAURA LEE

- as a christian we shouldn't be celebrating vday but im not really that religious so????

- but laura lee is so anyways she would be all like "im not going to sin, i don't want to disappoint my lord" 😭😭😭

- she'd still go on a date w you, well more like flower picking and stuff and she'd probably pull out the the bible and start reading to you but you love her too much to say no so you just listen

- ok yeah that's it end of post mwah mwah

Hey everyone! Remember when I told y'all I was gonna make a huge post about Harumi Shirai being playable? Well, it's heeeeere!! :D ✨️

Before we start! A thanks to @meme099 for requesting this post and a thanks to all my Harumi girlies (in special @mikka-minns @thedragonholder @madamealtruist @orbitinytheworld and @running-with-the-feels ) who have always been so supportive of my Harumi content! Hope you guys enjoy this!🩷

🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

Canon info used as inspo:

Harumi and Kuai are childhood friends and are in a relationship;

Harumi is head of her clan (that is not the Shirai Ryu);

Harumi uses her knowledge as Grandmistress to help Kuai and Tomas assemble the Shirai Ryu;

Harumi has connections with the Umgadi.

Everything else I used is based on Headcanons of mine, Harumi's clan being the most blatant case, I'll be linking previous posts in case you want more details!

I wanted to make Harumi a brand new character, with her own unique backstory and skill set! (It's what she deserves)

With all that in mind, LET'S BEGIN!

🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

TW: This will be much more explicitly violent than my regular Tumblr content, as there will be Fatalities and Brutalities. I know in this Fandom this is expected, but as it's not usual for MY content, I feel like a warning is welcome!

New Playable Fighter: Harumi Shirai🌸

🌸 Bio:

Fierce leader, talented herbalist and honorary Umgadi, Harumi Shirai is the head of her clan, the Order of Cetrion.

Founded by her ancestors and composed by women only, her clan uses their skills to aid the Elder Goddess of Life and Virtue, Cetrion, in her never-ending mission to protect all life in Earthrealm.

Nowadays, Harumi is not only the Grandmistress of her clan, but also mentor of her childhood friend and lover, Kuai Liang, as he struggles and persists in his quest to assemble a clan that will rival the Lin Kuei's might and serve as Earthrealm's new line of defence.

For more of my thoughts and HCs on Harumi and her clan, you can read these:

🌸 Gear:

As stablished in the previously mentioned posts The Daughters of Cetrion are herbalists with access to Outworldly magic and spices, so most her arsenal will reflect that!

Bottles of healing potions and deadly poisons.

Pouches of grated herbs that can heal, cause allergic reactions and, of course, kill. (Pocket sand!)

A scythe (small one, used to harvest plants but can and will slit a throat)

It is canon that Harumi has connections with the Umgadi and it's safe to assume she was trained by them (my HC is that Li Mei was her teacher), so I gave her an Umgadi skill:

Umgadi energy constructs. Only the Grandmistresses are allowed to learn this skill from the Umgadi. Harumi's constructs are pink and she shapes them like flowers and red foxes (a nod to her Animality).

🌸 Skins:

Now being quite fair, MK1 can be hardly known for its variety in skins. It is however, pretty creative when if comes to colour palettes, so I decided to rely on that!

Bellow you have Harumi's main outfit, the long sleeve nods to her canon fit while the rest was made with her clan in mind (the main reference were Cetrion's outfits)

The Grandmistress: The main colour. This is her Grandmistress outfit, all in pinkish tones, which I HC to be her family's colours)

The Scorpion: 1st colour variant has my Scorpion!Harumi colours, with a brighter shade of pink and yellow (the flower on her hair nods to her Scorpion hairpin)

Daughter of Cetrion: 3rd variation brings her clan's colours, a mix of her family's colours and Cetrion's. The colours are to represent their commitment as protectors of life and nature.

Li Mei's Apprentice: 4th variation is for her Umgadi outfit! She wears the traditional shades of yellow and silver!

The Shirai Ryu's Bride: 5th variation has Kuai's colours (and yes, the name is a nod to their relationship)

Honorary Lin Kuei: 6th variation might look controversial, but I find it hard to believe Harumi was only Kuai's friend. I HC Harumi was named honorary Lin Kuei warrior many years ago. (She wears Bi-Han’s colours to imply they were once friends too)

Bonus info:

Kuai has two of her colour palettes, "The Grandmistress" as nod to their relationship and "Daughter of Cetrion" as I HC him to be a honorary Cetrion warrior;

I drew Harumi slightly different here to make her resemble her new face model, Jiwon Ra, but I kept some of my HCs, meaning her freckles and slight heterochromia;

The tattoo on Harumi's arm is the Umgadi insignia and the pendant on her belt is her clan's.

🌸 Special moves:

Fireworks: Harumi shoots fireworks through her finger (Umgadi magic) they work as projectiles and can be shot to any height and also as she jumps or ducks; (it looks like Charlie's fireworks)

Witchy makes you dizzy: She throws a concoction that makes the opponent dizzy (it inverts your remote);

Pocket sand: She throws a pouch that makes the opponent cough (makes them stand in place)

They don't bite... much: Harumi creates two foxes with her constructs and sends them to bite the opponent;

Cetrion's healer: She uses one of her potions to heal herself.

Bonus: For stronger hits and during kombos, she will strike with her scythe;

She throws bottles and pouches of potions during her kombos.

The first and fourth move can become Brutalities. With "Fireworks" she blows up the opponent and with "They don't bite... much" her foxes eat the opponent alive.

🌸 Fatal Blow:

Beware the Forest Witch:

Harumi blows one of her powder mixes on the opponents face, the powder makes their skin itchy and they scratch their face aggressively (drawing a lot of blood).

She steps back and sends her foxes, the creatures start to bite, one of them givas a particularly strong bite, breaking the opponets leg, the other breaks their arm right after.

Harumi finishes the move with a firework attack, breaking the opponents ribs and sending them away!

The Fatal Blow can also be used as a brutality, her foxes will tear the opponents limbs off as they bite them!

🌸 Fatality:

Sacrifice for the Goddess:

Harumi uses her constructs to open holes into the opponent's chest and stomach.

She calmly walks closer, holding a pouch and a bottle as she's still deciding which one to use.

She places the pouch in the opponent's stomach hole and the bottle on their chest hole, only to change her mind at the last minute and replace the bottle with another one from her belt.

She places a smaller bottle at the opponent's mouth and slowly walks away.

The bottles and pouch explode into plants and vines with beautiful flowers that start to grow inside the opponent's holes and mouth as they fall backwards. The opponent starts to look like a gory flower pot.

From the opponent's mouth grows a singular pink flower, which Harumi gently plucks and sniffs as her victory is announced.

🌸 Intro animations:

When she's pushed away by her opponent, she carves her scythe on the ground to stop her momentum. Her foxes constructs are already by her side. She pets them to assure she's ok and raises up saying "my foxes will be eating well today"

When she's the one pushing, she distances herself with a one-handed cartwheel and a back flip. Her hands glows as she moves, summoning flowery shapes around them. She mocks the opponent calling them "fertilizer for Cetrion's gardens"

🌸 In-between rounds animation:

When she wins: She recreates her foxes constructs and pets them, sweetly calling them "good boys"

When she loses: She uses one of her potions to "heal" herself (she'll grunt in pain and anger as she does)

🌸 Victory animation:

She will use her constructs to slightly recriate this one victory animation of Cetrion from MK11. Her foxes will be lying by each of her sides.

🌸Ending:

"The arrival of Titan Shang Tsung inspired many other foes to rise and act on their darkest desires.

In their path they left behind only death and destruction. Among their victims, were the Living forests and the Capital of Seido.

As Daughters of Cetrion, it is my clan's duty to protect life and preserve the nature. Such disasters would never pass unnoticed by us.

Lady Cetrion healed the forest and put a stop to the flood that had already killed so many. In a way only her magic could!

My sisters and I helped as we could, searching for survivors, protecting and healing them.

Once they were out of harm, it was time to get them justice. Reunited with my old friends and mentor in the Umgadi, we went after the responsible for this atrocity.

Havik, the agent of chaos."

🌸 A few intro dialogues:

🔥 With Kuai:

Harumi: Don't think I'll go easy on you just because you're my fiancé.

Kuai: I know you'll go harder on me because I'm your fiancé.

--------------------------------------

Kuai: I'll join you against Havik in a heartbeat.

Harumi: I appreciate it, but you already have much in your plate, Grandmaster.

--------------------------------------

Kuai: When you're around Hanzo, do you ever feel...

Harumi: Like I've met him before? All the time.

--------------------------------------

Kuai: So, about those comic books you borrowed?

Harumi, chuckling: We're married now, Sunbeam. What's yours is mine!

--------------------------------------

Kuai: So when you said "Summer camping" you actually meant training with the Umgadi?

Harumi: Uh... Surprise?

--------------------------------------

Kuai: So you and Tanya...?

Harumi: So you and Cyrax?

--------------------------------------

Kuai: You think things will ever get better with Bi-Han?

Harumi: Of course! As long as we don't give up on him!

--------------------------------------

❄️ With Bi-Han:

Bi-Han: I only wish to speak to my brothers.

Harumi: And your men lurking on my territory, are they here only to speak too?

--------------------------------------

Bi-Han: Step aside, Harumi, this is family matter.

Harumi: Have you forgotten, dear? I am family.

--------------------------------------

Harumi: Come alone to the Shirai Ryu. Let's put our differences aside.

Bi-Han: So you can stab me in the back?

--------------------------------------

Harumi: We used to be friends, Bi-Han.

Bi-Han: Regrettably, Harumi, things have changed.

--------------------------------------

Harumi: So how is Cyrax doing?

Bi-Han: Your concoctions have been quite helpful...

--------------------------------------

💨 With Tomas:

Tomas: Are you sure Hanzo is over 18?

Harumi: *Sigh* For the last time, Tom. Yes!

--------------------------------------

Tomas: Wait, you know Kuai has a crush on you?

Harumi, chuckling: Who doesn't know?

--------------------------------------

Harumi: You drank my truth serum??

Tomas: it's not my fault you stash your potions with the kitchen spices!

--------------------------------------

Harumi: The Shirai Ryu is turning out great!

Tomas: And you thought we were total lost causes!

--------------------------------------

Harumi: Where did you say you found your apprentice again?

Tomas: He fell from a tree!

--------------------------------------

Tomas: So your Umgadi friend Jade...

Harumi: Want me to introduce you to her?

🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

So for now I only have these dialogues with the Sub-Zero siblings, but I'll tell you that:

If you want so see Harumi interacting with other characters, you can send me an ask with the character(s) you want and will make some intro dialogues with them! (Maximum 3 characters per ask, please)🩷

🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

Yoo folks! We made it!! Playable Fighter Harumi Shirai at your services!!!

Thank you very much for reading, I hope you have enjoyed!

If you have thoughts, questions and/or suggestions, please DO TELL! I'd love to chat to you about my girl!💕

The Show Must Go On episode review (Hazbin Hotel S1 finale)

The finale of season 1 of Hazbin Hotel. MAJOR SPOILERS BELOW! Also long post warning

Did the title of the episode strangely remind anyone else of the failed videogame “Showdown Bandit”? Anyone?

Charlie wishing her mom was there. Likely foreshadowing her appearing near the end.

Charlie really likes a man in uniform. Maybe take some notes on that Vaggie XD.

Looks like we got a glimpse at how Niffy sees the world, which is apparently similar to Randy Cunningham when as the Ninja.

Again CHARLE=PURITY

I’m not liking how Pentious said that quote about living and dying.

During Al’s speech, you can see Charlie realizing that Pen likes Cherri and being happy for him. Charlie is Pen X Cherri shipper confirmed XD

Could Al be really starting to care about the others?

Angel X Husk and Pen X Cherri fanservice, Charlie liking the last one XD

Oh now Cherri is interested in Pen.

COME ON, KISS YOU TWO! YES!!!

Gross, Adam’s personality is rubbing off on Lute. Even Adam is getting uncomfortable with it and considering its Adam that’s saying something.

The Heaven Bucks things sounds really fake, mostly cause I feel like money doesn’t exist/is necessary for Heaven.

WHAT THE HECK ARE THOSE OUTFITS CHARLIE AND VAGGIE ARE WEARING!?! And why am I getting She-Ra/RWBY vibes from them? Also Charlie is wearing her crown, cute.

I’m intrigued by Charlie’s shield cause I was kind of expecting to see Charlie use her pitchfork along with it, but the shield is still a nice bit of symbolism for how she wants to protect people and not harm anyone…that much. It also shows that she and Vaggie are a great team/couple as Charlie is the defense while Vaggie is the offense.

My fellow DEATH BATTLE fans (which is hopefully a lot of you) get ready to analyze Charlie’s powers, skills, and feats in this fight!

Al’s shield being another feat of how powerful Alastor is, though I wonder if his recent deal with Charlie helped with it?

Aww come one Niffty finally has a chance to go all psycho and all we see is her just stabbing corpses!

While Charlie’s crown is black on the outside, its gold on the inside/other side. Not only do I think this is a Dante’s Inferno reference (it reminds me of the hypocrites’ part but reversed) it also symbolizes how even though she is the daughter of the Devil, Charlie is still a good person.

Alastor’s using shadow jutsu!

OK I DID NOT SEE AL’S VOICE CHANGING after his cane got destroyed. At least this explains how those times I noticed his voiced changed in previous episodes.

Valentino was really saddened when Vox said seeing Alastor about to die was better then sex XD. It’s also funny cause there is a similar line in Netflix’s Castlevania series, which I could definitely see fans making parodies of soon.

Wait WTF is going on now with his voice? Ugh.

That’s our Charlie, even when in a war she is still apologizing. Also her glitter is WAY more effective than Dale Gribble’s pocket sand XD

Also if you slow down the scene enough, you can see that Charlie’s shield damaged and dented the angelic spear, meaning its likely made of something stronger then the angelic steel mentioned by Carmilla in “Hello Rosie”

Charlie shooting fireworks from her fingertips, a nice example of her powers AND a callback to the pilot.

NO NOT THE EGGBOIS! Luckily Angel finally used his secret set of arms to save one of them, we even get to hear his theme song.

And Pen X Cherri fans REJOICED! Also again showing how shallow Cherri can be.

Aww this can’t be goWHAT THE FUCK! I couldn’t even finish writing this sentence because of how fast Pen’s death was! I mean it was implied he was going to die but I thought it be more dramatic than that! Can the Helluva Boss writers at least do this for when they finally kill Striker, or have it happen in my episode idea where Moxxie and his father in law do it?

OOO ITS TIME FOR CHALIE’S DEMON FORM. And in a Sailor Moon kind of way too.

WAIT THAT’S IT? It’s just her regular horns and a tail. The writers really need to amp up these “full demon” forms of the characters as this, Ozzie’s, and Mammon’s forms have been really disappointing to me especially when compared to Stolas and even Helsa’s odd form from the pilot. I hope that this is some kind of semi form or one of many transformations of Charlie’s, and her REAL demon form is something more monstrous but it results in her losing control.

I do like Razzle and Dazzle being dragons, as I did recall them having such a power but this is better than what I was thinking they’d transform into.

DAZZLE NO! At least he died protecting Charlie.

VAGGIE VS. LUTE ROUND 2 (ding ding sound effect from episode)

(Adam slaps Charlie) Again we need fanart of Lucifer and Lilith kicking Adam’s ass.

So a part of me likes that Vaggie spared Lute cause it shows she is better than the so called “angel”, but a part of me knows this is going to bite back later on.

Lute riping her own arm off just proves the previous statement. Still I wonder what a cyborg angel will be like.

You can control fire and shoot fireworks from your fingers, you these things to make Adam let go of you Charlie!

SO Adam is wearing a mask, like I brought up before. I wonder what he looks like under it.

I’m not mad at Lucifer coming in late, cause he likely couldn’t as he probably realized it would just lead to more problems involving Heaven, but again he shows that he is the best dad so far in the series by coming in to save Charlie. Take notes Stolas!

Huh, Adam looks pretty normal looking, even looks a bit like Lute. I was expecting something really ugly under the mask like a pale complexion, sweat, and an unshaven face especially since he has worm that the entire time we have seen him.

OH HO now were getting that Adam ass kicking. Too bad that line from Lucifer kind of ruined it. I mean I can kind of see it being on brand with his goofy personality but still.

Again no one is saying Lilith’s name here. Also I know Lucifer is likely joking about him and Eve being together and just referencing the apple, but I really want to hear Lucifer say he’s only been with Lilith for all his life, then took a break after the divorce.

“NOT THE HOTEL”, is what I would be saying if the trading cards weren’t released early. Still devastating to see.

Like when Adam was choking her, Charlie had the means to save herself there as she is confirmed to have wings. Maybe their waiting for a special occasion to use them.

(Charlie transforms) What was that? At least this confirms that Charlie can transform and confirm that hoove/foot idea I brought up in the last review. I wonder if this is some kind of power from her mother?

Okay Lucifer’s demon form is pretty good. This does make me wonder what that shadow thing of his form the pilot is, if that is still canon. Hopefully it is and it confirms that Charlie can have multiple demon forms.

Holy crap they killed Adam off and Death by Niffy no less! I mean I wanted Adam and Lute to get out of the picture so someone better could take the role of angelic antagonist, but I never thought they would just kill Adam off. At least Vaggie is really happy about this, and I don’t blame her XD. It’s nice to see her smile like this.

Again we see that Lucifer has restraint, which is still interesting.

Lute took his halo. I sense some trouble coming from this. Fingers crossed that it involves how Heaven is okay with Adam being gone, and Lute becoming the thing she hates to destroy Hell AND the “traitors” of Heaven.

I’m still mix on Katie Killjoy being voiced by Brandon. It is making me wonder if Katie was always going to be like this or if they’re altering her to be more like Brandon’s female characters like Bryce. I mean I always though Katie would have a role where she just keeps spreading bad things about Charlie’s hotel, even making things up/ hire others to cause trouble for Charlie so the news can keep reporting on her. Heck she is even thanking them which I never saw pilot Katie never doing through she could be doing it to save face on livestream television. It’s still a funny idea and it has even remined me that there was a time in animation where shows had reoccurring characters whose main thing about them was being obvious references to other fictional or even real characters like Total Drama had characters such as Harold being a Napoleon Dynamite parody and Anne Maria referencing Snooki, Dr. Orpheus from the Venture Bros. was a cheap Dr. Strange knockoff (but still really funny), and there is one character in Atop the 4th Wall that I won’t spoil here cause it’s that crazy, so check it out for yourselves when you can.

Another cameo of Baxter and ARACKNISS!

I also wonder if the Exterminations will be put to a halt here as pointed out in the sliding text on the news channel. It would be interesting to see if Hell really does have an overpopulation problem, and what that would look like.

I’m surprised the V’s aren’t reacting to this more, more so with Vox but it’s likely that he saw the fight with Adam and Alastor and now has a plan on destroying Alastor. That would be cool to see in the next season.

THANK GOD FAT NUGGETS SURIVED! I think VIvzie would have had a riot on her hands if she allowed him to die.

Lucifer said the episode title!

So it looks like Alastor DID care for the others, but now he is dedicated to getting his freedom back from what I still think could be the Lilith imposter who will also be an upcoming deadly force/threat

KeeKee has a Keyblade form!

Yeah Vox and Val are definitely going to use this news for personal gain. The real question is if Velvette will aid them, as her recording them say all this feels like she will try and go out on her own, dragging her allies down in the process. Fitting given her song from “Scrambled Eggs”.

Nice song, great that both Sir Pentious AND Dazzle got memorials, and the new hotel looks amazing as it has a little bit of symbolism from all the others like Husk’s casino vibe and Angel’s career.

PEN IS IN HEAVEN! Emily is loving it while Sera looks confused and scared, BOTH cause she has never saw this happen before or knows that this will kick off some serious consequences like a version of the Armageddon prediction. This is great as now even if the recent fan theory of Emily becoming a fallen angel happens, Charlie now has another ally in Heaven to help spread her redemption plan on that side of things, great for what I can see happening in the next season.

Oh hey everyone its “Lilith”. Yeah I still believe in the “Imposter Lilith” theory that I’ve been talking about lately, and the sunglasses bit adds to it since it is hiding her eyes, like how her face was covered in “Dad Beat Dad”. Plus there have been many times in stories where sunglasses were used to hide something in fiction. Also in the past, we’ve gotten info on her saying how she would like to fight against Heaven, so its odd that she would want sanctuary in it unless she has plans that involve her being there. The biggest clue would have to be that the real Lilith would likely have cheered when she heard Adam was dead. I did talk about how the Imposter could likely want to destroy everything, so for all we know she is pretending to be Lilith who wanted sanctuary in Heaven (if they even know she is there) which is all just a ruse to get info on how to destroy Heaven to fulfill her life’s work and if anything ever happens, the Imposter can rely on her servant Lute and the Exorcist to aid her.

I will admit that it COULD be the real Lilith. I did make a recent post on my Tumblr going over how I think Lilith actually recruited the Imposter to help her take down Heaven a peg a long item ago, but she eventually realized the Imposter had bigger plans that involved destroying everything in existence and Lilith has since been trying to stop the Imposter. At one point things could have gotten so bad to a point that she had to hide in Heaven (again if they even know she is there) until she thought of a plan to stop it like having Lute work for her (again maybe Al works for the Imposter) and similar to what I have in my “Season 1 is a test for Charlie” Lilith knew Adam wasn’t up for the task of defending everyone from the Imposter, so she had to install Lute as leader of the Exorcist so there would be at least a small capable army to fight against the Imposter/upcoming threat if things got bad. However now that Charlie’s redemption plan is getting more support and is proven to be true, Lilith could be scared that the Imposter could go after her and Lucifer next, so I think next season she will try and convince Charlie to stop her goals until they have a plan of stopping the Imposter. Maybe since she made a deal with Lute, she has no choice but to stop Charlie or risk losing the one chance they have at saving everything from the Imposter…until she learns that her daughter was able to make an army to stop the Exorcist which could lead to Lilith changing her mind and maybe think that Heaven and Hell should work together to stop the Imposter/big threat. Even then there could be consequences as we don’t know what exactly happens if a deal with a demon is ever broken. Would said demon die or would the natural of the forces of the universe go crazy until something happens? For any non Percy Jackson fans and those that don’t care about spoilers for it, look up “Trials of Apollo” and “River Styx” to get an understanding of what I mean by broken deals.

That was a GREAT episode AND a great finale for the first season of Hazbin Hotel.

We got tons of action, drama, suspense, fanservice, and mystery just like how I like my shows. The finale was really good cause its on track for what I’ve been saying I would like to see Charlie go through when it comes to the next step of trying to convince the people of Heaven and Hell her redemption plan is a good thing in general for the afterlife.

The only minor problems I have with it is that they didn’t utilize Niffty as much as I thought they would in the battle.

When it comes to the season as a whole it was great, with episode 4 being the worst as we all knew those events were coming but thanks to Helluva Boss it was made less serious to me.

I also agree with other fans that biggest problem the season had was that there should have been more episodes. I mean people know how popular Hazbin Hotel AND Helluva Boss is so it’s a bit odd that they didn’t get more then 8 episodes, especially since they aren’t the usual hour long episodes that are everywhere. Not to mention how half the season came out all at once here on Amazon Prime.

Apparently this is a big problem with Amazon Prime shows in general, BUT luckily given how well received the whole season has been (wordplay pun not intended), I’m hopeful that this will convince the people at A24 and Prime to give Vivzie and the HH cast more funding to make MORE episodes for next season, like maybe 14 this time. Sure this could delay the release of season 2, which is apparently already being made, but I bet I’m not alone when I say I’d be okay with such a delay if it means more Hazbin Hotel.

Hopefully next season though there are less trailers and clips released, another reason why there should be more episodes to help dimmish such things, AND if there is another early release on A24 it should just be like 2 days before the season comes on Amazon Prime and NOT a whole week.

I’m also calling it now that the season 2 episode premiere of Hazbin Hotel will start with a news segment with Katie Killjoy and Tom Trench recapping some of the events of last season and telling us what has happened to both the characters and Hell/Heaven since the finale. I also predict that Lilith, whether the real one or the Imposter posing as her, will appear at the end of said episode starting off that season’s main story.

I definitely want to hear your thoughts on not only this episode, but also on the entire season so don’t be shy. What do you think/hope will happen in season 2? What kind of episodes or stories would you like to see in the next season? What theories do you have?

LET ME HEAR IT!!!

#hazbin hotel #vivziepop #hazbin hotel charlie #hazbin hotel vaggie #hazbin hotel angel dust #hazbin hotel niffty #hazbin hotel sir pentious #hazbin hotel lute #hazbin hotel adam #hazbin hotel lucifer #hazbin hotel lilith #hazbin hotel spoilers

Fun kind of cracky shellshocked/shellcrime idea here.

42 Miles and 42 Mikey (who is like more morally grey for this story's purpose) fall on accident likely caused by Mikey's mystics going haywire into the regular 1610 Miles' dimension.

It causes chaos.

Mainly, 42 Miles tries to restrain his Mikey from comitting too many war crimes as it custom for any Rise Turtle stranded in another universe to do.

So they cause a lot of confusion with an evil Mikey-double and a new (maybe mystic) Prowler running around and kind of killing criminals.

Poor 1610 Miles was not prepared to deal with an evil version of himself and his unhinged boyfriend today.

1610 Mikey on the other hand thinks that their alters are literally so cool (I mean look at their outfits, Miles!) and befriends himself imediatly.

I dunno, maybe we can put some sad shit in like 42 Miles getting to meet 1610 Jefferson Davis but I think it would be mostly a small fun story.

Ok, I slept a night over this and concluded that it would be even funnier/heartbreaking if shellcrime got transported to Gwen's universe.

And he heads to Gwen's school because is not missing out on more school and Gwen thinks he's her world's version of Miles Morales and tries to befriend him.

And 42 Miles is just like: Who tf are you

And of course, Gwen sees the signs of secret identity and eventually finds out he's the Prowler and it gets kinda heartbreaking with 42 Miles having to explain that he's from another universe and he is kinda fucked up and definitly not her Miles and has to go home and that yes, this is slightly unhinged boyfriend, no I don't know if your Miles gets a boyfriend too.

(Why is 42 Mikey not present at Gwen's school?

1. No cloaking broach.

2. He never went to school, why start now

3. He somehow still managed to get expelled the first day.)

a night with itzy: choose your prom date

classmate!reader x classmate!2shin

a/n: hannie here :] welcome to another choose your ending ff, i put a poll asking what genre everyone wanted and while i was washing my hands yesterday i thought of the idea and blam here we are, thanks for your patience with me in school and life this story along with your asks will be uploaded with time, prom season is coming and for those of us who are, never went, or don't want to go then i invite you to sit back and relax while you enjoy a night with itzy

warnings: switch!itzy, car sex, praise kink, being tied up(?), horny teenagers being teenagers, oral, exhibition kink, dom!reader, sub!yuna, dom!ryujin, dress up kink, more will be added if i forget to mention <3

it was another regular day here at itzy high school, yuna pulls up next to your parking spot and winked as she waves you over. lately she has been parking near and talking to you since you both had classes together. you began talking and walking to class before realizing you had a lot more in common than being lab partners. ryujin your oldest childhood friend began to tolerate her presence in your life as they both helped you navigate the jungle that is high school.

this week was no different until you noticed on the way to bio as usual a tap on your shoulder caused you to turn around and cup your hand against your mouth gasping. there behind you was yuna holding a bouquet of daisies on one knee as she gives you the brightest grin you’ve ever seen. peers crowd around the two of you as she clears her throat and takes a deep breath.

“i won’t beat around the bush but i want to take you to prom and i won’t take no for an answer. i’ll literally stalk you around school and back to your house until you give me a reply and-“

“YUNA??!?” whisper yelling your cheeks redden as you accept the flowers from her smug face. “I-ILL GO WITH YOU IF YOU PROMISE TO GET UP!!” standing up yuna shoos away the crowd as the flow of the hallway and students continues per usual. arm in hand she guides you to your class humming the whole way.

“remember love prom is next week so let me know the color of your outfit and we’ll coordinate.” turning her head to the side yuna takes a look to the left and a look to the right before placing a light kiss against your cheek. “i promise to be there so we can dance all night, don’t worry about a thing other than looking even more amazing than you already look.” waving goodbye her figure leaves your sight as you clutch the flowers close to your chest.

during class, you begin thinking of outfits to wear when the bell rings signaling for lunch. making your way to the cafeteria your best friend appears at your side making you feel relieved and not alone.

“hey ryujin~ you’ll never guess what happened to-“

“yuna did a promposal to you in the hallway before bio right?”

“damn word travels fast around here.”

“you’re going to say no right? i mean she’s yuna the unreliable, always leaving class randomly, getting odd grades. you should be going with someone that’s stable, someone who makes you feel comfortable and loved automatically. someone like your best friend maybe or-“

“-you?” finishing her sentence ryujin stops wide-eyed in the middle of the lunchroom frozen in place. “ryujin? hello? what’s wrong what are you-“ mumbling to herself ryujin takes a bold step forward and holds your hand in hers. with the bouquet on the other hand, you look up and see your best friend the coolest and most confident person in your life looking scared.

“this is not how i wanted to ask you, but i’ll take it.” inhaling ryujin stares into your eyes giving your hand a slight squeeze. “yuna beat me to the punch but i wanted to surprise you in my room when you come over after school today with balloons i blew up and the rose petals spelling out prom on my bed and then-“ stopping ryujin you place a finger on her lip and blush.

“ok ok ok i’ve heard enough!! i’ll have to consider the two of you and decide tonight, i promise i’ll let you know first ryu who i pick.” removing your hand from hers you nudge toward the exit. “if it’s ok with you …i’d like to eat alone today. i’ve had an exciting first half of the day.” she nods and watches you leave outside to sit by a bench alone with your thoughts. the rest of the day you ponder over this morning’s events- the most popular girl in the school and your best friend since childhood asked you to prom. who would you choose?

as you get home and go about your day you’re about to unwind for the night when your phone vibrates and both their names appear on your phone, you read both their messages and decide to reply back to one.

"so love i'm thinking we could coordinate and go shopping this weekend are you free for a date?"

"hey...i wanted to check on you and see how you're feeling, want me to come over with your faves for a binge and therapy session?"

Ok I'm back on my Barbie movie bullshit

The song they're using to promote it, Dua Lipa's Dance the Night, is so incredibly depressing.

For context:

The music and singing are very upbeat. It sounds exactly like what you'd hear from a Barbie song. Same thing for the title; Barbies are glamorized, always having the time of their lives.

In this way, it's very reminiscent of Aqua's Barbie Girl song. That song is about being (for lack of a better word) a bimbo, living a party lifestyle and getting spoiled by your partner, who gets a lot of sex in return.

This sort of objectification has surrounded Barbies for years. They're toys, meant to be pretty and dressed up and dance with other Barbies.

But Dua Lipa's song. The lyrics are so depressed and existential. The first line:

Baby, you can find me under the light, diamonds under my eyes

Sounds like a regular party night. Later from the background singers:

Even when the tears are flowing they're diamonds on my face.

Barbie literally starts the song out crying.

The whole thing continues in this trend, with her talking about how, despite everything happening - her heart breaking - inside, she keeps on presenting the perfect idea of a Barbie. Not one hair out of place, not missing any steps, still with that smile and tight outfit.

This, again, shows the existential crisis Barbie is going to go through in the film. She has an ideal she has to live up to; society demands her to be the perfect Barbie, always happy and pretty and carefree. But she doesn't want that. It's why her feet go flat, and why she wants to put the heel on. She fully believes herself to be the doll everyone else made her, thus doesn't think she should be able to express how she really feels. It's why Barbie keeps moving, cause if she stops, she'll shatter.

I'll still keep the party going, not one hair out of place - yes, I can

And because she's convinced herself that she needs to be the perfect Barbie, she does well acting like it, so no one else feels what she feels. Every other Barbie and Ken don't have these ideas, thus making her the lone figure, isolated from both the world she's in and the world she wants.

When my heart breaks - they never see it

I think this leads into the idea that Barbie's inner conflict might make her choose between the worlds; in Barbieland, she's the perfect doll with a fabulous life, but in the real world, she's a person with emotions and free will.

hii! i have a request if that's ok .

for this request you can do either a modern au just just a regular avatarverse because i believe it works both ways (though i think its way better with modern)

basically the girls of the gaang out together for a little girls night out and the guys are just hanging out together. they talk about their girls a little bit but then a storm rolls in and its HEAVY. fiance!zuko (or husband) you know starts to panic a little bit because reader isn't really answering the phone (if chosen modern au), and theirs like a pretty ugly storm. reader DOES come back eventually soaking wet/sneezing and coughing, zuko is kind of like 😟😟, and the rest of the fic is just zu taking care of soaked and cold reader and its all fluff at the end!

💗💗

‘The common cold’- Modern!Zuko x female!reader

Masterlist <3

An: HIYA! Literally, I love you. I LOVE MODERN AU’S IM SO HAPPY YOU REQUESTED!!!!!! 🫶 Side note: I’m aware it’s almost been like a month since I’ve posted, and I really don’t know what to say other than sorry! (Though, I can’t guarantee it won't happen again, school starts soon :’))

Summary:

Read request :) SET IN MODERN AU!!!

Warnings: stressed zuko tbh, super duper cheesey, pet names ig

“Last week, Suki took me bowling! It was sooo much fun!”

“Were you any good?” Aang replied, interested in Sokka’s most recent endeavours.

The boy huffed in return, hanging his head, “No, I flopped so hard, you don’t even know.” he paused, before looking back up, “What about you, what did you do?”

Aang grinned, “Katara and I spent the day indoors, bingeing her favourite show! To be completely honest, I didn’t really understand what was going on.” he frowned, before smiling as he recalled how she laughed at a joke he didn’t get, then looked at him in shock when she realised he didn’t laugh.

Aang turned to Zuko, tilting his head, waiting for him to add his own side of the story, Sokka doing the same.

“What?”

“What did you and Y/n do?” the brown haired one asked, an encouraging look on his features.

He looked between the two, getting a middle school boy sleepover vibe from the atmosphere. Alas, he didn’t mind sharing, “We had a picnic by the beach.”

“Was it romantic?” Aang asked.

Zuko blinked twice in his direction - what else would it be?

“What do you think?”

“I’ll take that as a yes…” he rubbed his neck sheepishly.

“Anything else?” Sokka asked, feeling like he ended the conversation too fast.

Well, there were plenty of other things you did! You baked a few recipes you’d seen online, struggling to follow the complex instructions, causing a messy end result, but two very proud individuals. Zuko recalls lecturing you after you had some of the raw batter, and you simply wiped some off of the spoon and onto his nose - your husband wasn't very amused. You also made him take a few quizzes online, ranging from which (Favourite game) character are you, to what’s your love language, to ‘create a desert and we’ll tell you what kind of spouse you’re looking for!’. He was highly sceptical of the last one. By the end of that session, you had established that zuko was an introverted-triple chocolate fudge cookie-alien with no favourite colour - he was 99% sure that was inaccurate. Although, his favourite was when you two dressed in your most fanciest outfits, and danced around the house, bodies rhythmic and in sync, despite no music playing. Only sounds coming from the gentle hums leaving your body, content from being held by your lover. He wished that moment never ended, he wasn’t exactly sure how to tell you that a thought you had on a whim is now his go-to romantic activity. Maybe it was the silliness of it all, every new day punctuated with weird games and jokes. He was a fan though.

Sokka nodded, deciding not to push the man’s limits, and turned on the large tv. The movie playing was nothing more than a low budget horror film - if you could even refer to it as that. The CGI was poorly conducted, and the story line was nonsensical. Aang and Sokka enjoyed it though, ‘the tackier, the better’ - their words, not his. Just as the three relaxed into their seats on the large sofa, a loud jumpscare came up, the villain flashing onto the screen along with a horrible screech. It wouldn't have been that scary, if it weren’t for the sudden bolt of lighting striking the nearby ground. The younger two jumped, screaming, grabbing onto anything close to them.

“What was that!” Aang yelled, looking out of the window.

“Talk about bad timing.” Sokka sighed, the storm becoming more prominent outside.

The rain stuck to the big window, the outside view becoming more blurry. Zuko’s breath hitched as he realised you were out, immediately tugging at his phone, unlocking it, and searching for your contact.

“What’re you doing?”

“Calling Y/n.”

“Oh my god.” Sokka immediately rushed to get his cellphone, Aang just as fast.

Zuko walked into your shared bedroom, picking at his fingers anxiously as he awaited the calling screen to switch from ringing to the numbers. As soon as he heard your voice he put the phone up to his ear.

“Yn where are-”

“Hi! This is Yn’s voicemail, please leave a message after the beep!”

His heart sank, and he suddenly felt light headed. Zuko didn’t cope well under stress, especially when he didn’t know where you were.

And so he called again. And again. And again... Only to get no response. On the 7th try, it stopped ringing, only calling - you had no service. He officially couldn’t reach you.

“Any luck?” the ponytailed guy said, leaning on the door frame, staring at Zuko’s back, who was now sitting on the far edge of your shared bed.

Zuko shook his head, dropping it into his hands.

Sokka rounded the frame and sat next to him, rubbing his shoulder comfortingly,

“I’m sure she’s okay, her phone probably just died,” he smiled.

“Yeah but how about Suki or Katara or Toph? All of their phones died?”

“Suki never charges her phone before leaving the house, Katara’s phone probably got waterlogged, and Toph never answers anyways.” he shrugged, masking his anxiety with false coolness.

“I guess so,” they both knew that didn’t make Zuko feel better.

Just then, Aang ran into the room, heaving, “GUYS! KATARA’S CAR JUST PULLED INTO THE DRIVEWAY!”

The boys immediately perked up, a bright smile on Sokka’s face. They sped to the door and opened it, finding you fumbling with your keys, with the three other girls behind you. Zuko’s face lit up, and he immediately engulfed you in probably the warmest hug you’ve ever felt.

“Hey,” you whispered, grinning. “I’m home,”

You knew he was probably anxious, judging by his shaky body, and furrowed brows. He had the tendency to project a face of anger when faced with fear and uncertainty. But you knew better. Zuko was just worried for you - and rightfully so.

He let you go afterwards, leaning back with his arms still on your elbows, examining the wetness on your clothes.

“What took you so long?”

“It wasn’t long at all? The storm only got worse like 5 minutes ago?”

“It definitely didn’t feel like just 5 minutes, Yn” he said sternly, almost like that of a father to his kid who played in the mud. It was cute how worried he was.

Everyone stepped into the house, not forgetting to remove their shoes by the little shoe cabinet by the door, the one you decorated with stickers on a day much like this one, muddy and rainy. The stickers have since then chipped and faded, but the memory the hold within will always be sweet. You immediately went to your room, wincing at the feelings of your wet socks against the ground, a change of clothes being your objective. Zuko joined you in the room as you stripped down, throwing you a pile of fresh pj’s and socks. As you finally felt the warmth of the newly out of the laundry outfit, another, even stronger, warmth covered you. You leaned into him, the scent of his masculine perfume flooding your senses. It was one you picked out for him, seeing as though it smelt less like a scent and more like a feeling. Like the feeling of a cold winter day being ended with a cozy sleep under the soft sheets of a cabin, far in the woods. You loved it, and so did he. It’s been the one he’d dawned for ages now, refusing to swap it out no matter what. He sighed, kissing you softly. You pushed him away, shaking your head.

“Zuko, I think I’m sick. Don’t risk it.”

“Are you sure?” He said, eyes saddened, an irresistible pout on his face.

As if on cue, you sneezed. Not once, not twice but three times in a row, only slightly quieted by your sleeve. Your husband stared in shock, before snapping out of his trance and making his way to the medicine cabinet, passing you a pill for the common cold, mumbling things incoherently all the while. Whilst you took it, he gave suki, toph and katara some clothes you kept for sleepovers with your friends, he always loved your over the top preparations. Then, back to the room he went. He helped you under the soft, warm covers, pulling up the blankets to engulf your shaking body. Definitely a cold. Zuko’s hand was placed against your forehead, warm to the touch. Definitely a cold. Then he got the thermometer, it read 37 degrees Celsius. Yeah, definitely a cold. He sighed, shutting the lights as he left the room to let you rest, check in on the other couples + Toph in the guest bedrooms. Checking up on you again, he realised you fell asleep. Zuko neared your side of the bed cautiously, careful not to disturb your sleeping form. Gently, your lover neared his face to yours, planting an ever so gentle peck on your forehead, before moving back, standing up straight again. He sighed as he walked to the kitchen, already using his mobile phone to research different soup recipes, attempting to find one that actually seemed appetising.

The boy ended up settling on a classic, and began his cooking endeavour. Sure, he wasn’t the best at it, but the effort was there. As the mixture brewed, he moved on to making a drink. Hot chocolate. The brown mixture was being stirred by the spoon as he added sugar, before topping it with three marshmallows, soft and squishy - much like how he was acting, soft and- well maybe not squishy. Moving on from the beverage, he used a ladle to scoop some of the soup into a bowl, then put the bowl onto a tray, beside the drink. He texted the group chat to let the other boys know to grab some soup for the sick if they wanted, before shutting his phone. His sole attention needed to be on you and you only. He took off his home slippers, the cheap ones you bought him as a joke - but he’d grown to love, and stepped into the room, socked feet barely making a single noise. He carefully slotted the tray on his bedside table, and slowly got into the bed, staring at you all the while. Zuko’s arm carefully stroked your covered arms, his feather light touch calling you out of your sweet dreams and into your very lightheaded reality. You groaned, shaking a bit after gaining consciousness.

“Hey love, I made you some soup.” you turned over, Zuko’s eyes staring lovingly at you.

You smiled, slowly sitting up so you could consume it. As you reached for the spoon, he pulled it back, looking at you with an eyebrow raised. “I don’t even want you to move a muscle.” you rolled your eyes, and he fed you a spoon full of the soup, the flavours actually quite nice to the taste.

“Hm, where’d you get this?”

“Why? You don't like it?”

“No, the opposite actually,” you laughed dryly, your throat hoarse.

“Oh” he blushed a little, “I made it.”

“You’ve improved!” you giggled, “They grow up so fast!” you wiped a mock tear from your eye.

He swatted your hand away from your face, a fake angry look on his face, “No moving,”

Although, nothing could disguise the blush from the compliments. He was always a sucker for your affection. Could you blame him though?

Zuko slotted the spoon of broth into your mouth again, the hot liquid running down your throat, helping to warm it momentarily. He then leaned back, passing you the cup of hot chocolate, which he had fit into your favourite cup warmer. Your hands gently brushed his as you took the drink, a grateful smile on your features, one that warmed his nerve wrecked heart. He couldn’t help but smile back.

“Mmm,” you mumbled into the mug, “It’s so good, thank you,”

He hummed in acknowledgment, placing the half finished soup aside after you signalled you don’t want any more, before going back to his original criss-cross sitting style. He watched you gulp the drink down intently.

“Careful, it’s hot.” his voice rang as you took the final sip of the concoction.

“You’re hot,” you replied, lowering the cup from your face.

He chuckled, hiding his bashfulness with his hands, “Shut up,”

Collecting the mug from your hands, the boy popped it onto the tray on the bedside table, turning his attention back to you. A sigh left his lips as he checked your temperature, you sniffling in the process. You grabbed his hand off of your forehead, lowering it to your cheek, and pressing a gentle kiss into it.

“I’m fine Zuko, it’s just a cold,”

“Luckily. Could've been worse.”

“And how so?”

“I- uh,” he paused, “I don’t know. Just could’ve,”

“We’ll, it wasn’t. I’m here, I’m safe, and I’m with you. Nothing to worry about sweetie,”

He shrugged, anything could happen after all.

You cupped his cheeks, your cold hands causing him to scrunch his nose. You giggled at your husband’s reaction, kissing the top of his head lovingly. He stared at you with wide, adoring eyes, and you tucked a lock of his hair behind his ear.

“Thank you zuko,” you whispered to him, a grin on your face.

He tilted his head sideways, thank you for what? You understood the implication of the motion.

“For taking care of me,”

“It’s the bare minimum.”

You laughed, “it’s still sweet”

He mumbled something against your palms, something about your standards being weirdly low, before kissing your hand - an act of physical love he learned from you.

Slowly, zuko removed your arms from his face and laid you down again, pulling the blanket over your body once again. Your fever had gone down drastically now that you’ve eaten and had something warm for your throat. But you were still severely dehydrated. He pointed to the drink next to you - water obviously - and said the following: “If you get thirsty, please drink, it’s right there.”

And you nodded happily, eyes already droopy. A yawn left your mouth as you rolled over, going from a position on your back to a position facing him - on your side. You watched him through half lidded eyes get up and change out of the clothes he was in, in favor of putting on fresh pj’s. He rolled his eyes playfully as he noticed your stare, leaving the room as he tugged the shirt over his head.

The man’s socked feet made a pitter patter type noise as he traversed the hall which housed the rooms your friends were staying in, making sure they were cozy and situated, and alerting them of the different toiletries and essentials you had stocked for this occasion. He gave the men some of his spare pajamas, before leaving to head back to you, a good night leaving his lips as he does. He yawned as he entered the room again, slipping under the sheets next to you. Zuko watched your chest rise and fall with each breath, reminding himself that you were here, and you were safe. Though, he couldn’t sleep. Not one bit. His body was tired, but sleep wasn’t coming to him. For the simple reason that you weren’t by his side, snuggled up against him. He knew you would yell at him if he cuddled up with you, he would get sick after all. But what’s a little cold gonna do? Careful not to wake you up, he scooted closer, wrapping an arm around you. Your body gladly accepted the invitation, spreading your arms over his waist, and your head onto his shoulder. Content, he sighed, a smile playing on his lips, knowing this is the calm before the storm - the storm being the lecture he was bound to hear first thing in the morning. ‘Zuko you could’ve gotten sick!’ He laughed at the thought, your angry face being far too cute for anyone to ever be threatened. His thoughts wandered, mostly circulating around you, before his eyes fell heavy, and his breathing got deeper, his mind lulling into a soft, sleepy trance.

made a supe oc, say hello to vortex!!!

really happy with how i’ve been fleshing out their character + relationships with my friends’ ocs!! if you have your own ocs for the boys universe i’d love to see em =)

(for those curious, extended info about them below)

——————————————————————————

Supe Alias: Vortex

Real Identity: Haven Flores

*latino + white, but doesn’t speak spanish; 20, they/she; not very romantic, but active with all genders (unlabeled?)

Abilities: typical increased strength, fighting skill, etc; increased dexterity/reflexes; ability to create portals- if portal closes on physical matter, it will slice. self-trained, fairly juvenile with their physical abilities, but very sneaky and skilled with portal abilities.

Ability Limitations: cannot open portals around physical matter, has to be open space. physical matter must pass through independently from outward force (including gravity). additionally, portals can only be created within a certain vicinity of the creator. portal stability and size are impacted by factors like focus, emotional + physical state, etc.

*supplemental doses of compound v will increase the vicinity of portal creation and size, but too much will make the portals more unstable and more likely to close unwillingly.

Vices: often uses powers to steal and screw around. started out as something to keep themselves afloat while living poor, but has become a habit that is sometimes impulsive and unnecessary. is not evil, but definitely morally grey and has an inflated sense of self. does not kill excessively or mercilessly, but is used to the corruption within the supe community and doesn’t question it in others. seeks to save their own hide above others, unless they are good friends. a large part of their identity is that she know LOTS of secrets, and is a well known blackmailer, or one to come to for blackmail on other people. simultaneously puts a target on their back while also protecting them. is reverent to almost none, but trusts her friends. respect from them is hard earned.

Virtues: at her core, she does wish things were different. they are content with the less than decent things they participate in now because, if they can get away with it, why not? plus, in her mind, it’s different when you have to do it to get by. although, the things the other supes do make her sick. it can be mentally taxing to keep up with all that horrible information. not to mention, it can be difficult to feel safe if people both love and hate your notoriety for having dirt on everyone. they assist the boys on occasion because she believes she would be safer if the higher threats are eliminated. (and maybe, under that jaded exterior, she holds onto the hope that supes have the capability to be what everyone believes them to be.)

Relationships: their established friendship / history with frenchie and subsequently kimiko lead them to the boys’ cause in the first place. finds hughie dorky, but likes to talk music with him. she respects mm, but doesn’t quite consider him a friend, more of an acquaintance. does not respect butcher at all. annie is not the kind of person they would usually get along with, but the two of them aren’t on hostile terms, more just are ok with each other’s existence with no big opinion. actively hates anyone who employs them and anyone who is the subject of their blackmail (which is a lot of people)- mostly other supes or corporate groups, including vought. does not choose sides with any of them because she sees the corruption everywhere and blackmails anyone no questions asked for the protection and money exclusively.

Additional Details: when not engaging in anything that will require a fight or the ability to be significantly stealthy, they tend to wear bulkier or layered outfits (more spaces to put things that they totally paid for). wears gold jewelry / metal accessories pretty exclusively. the golden hair clip she uses to put up her hair is sometimes substituted for a regular old hair tie in casual situations.

#the boys #the boys oc #supe oc #shoutout chuck who is developing a really fun storyline w vortex and it’s supe oc #the boys season 3 #the boys tv #is this an excuse to vaguely self ship with frenchie #emphasis on vaguely #who knows #trins oc tag #trins art tag =p

How to do Cassie's routine ‎♡

Disclaimer: Only do this routine for YOU. And not for a boy who doesn't wash his ass in the morning ✿

So in total cassies morning routine is estimated at about $445. Soooo ya girl cassie aint really being cost-effective but thats ok.

Cassies Morning Routine

5:00: Wake up

5:10: Shower for a good shower routine go to my pervious post here

5:30: Wash face + skincare

5:50: Pick out outfit

6:10: Do hair

7:00: Makeup

And leave home when you want :)

Cassie’s skin Care

➮ After you get out the shower you want to wrap your hair in a Heatless Curling Rod Headband. Which are $13.99. This gives your hair nice curls that look natural without applying any heat.

➮ Then you want to apply eypaches. Like me cassies eyes tend to puff up and to get rid of puffines for a smooth look and to look like you got sleep that night. She used Peter Thomas Roth Cucumber Hydra-Gel Patches, Which are $55.

➮ After you put the curling rod in you hair. And the Gel Paches on you would want to start sculpting your face with a facial roller. You would want to sculpt the collarbone, chin and forehead. This can make your jawline also have a more defined look if used repeditevly. You can use the 3-in-1 Electric Jade Roller for $20.

➮ So after (or before it depends ) you will use an ice roller. Now cassie uses a bunch of depuffing tools for her face. However, This one isthe best (from personal use) It depuffs your face in the morning so you dont go ou looking like a pufferfish. She used the LATME Ice Roller. In retail it costs $13.

➮ Now you want to gua sha and use a face roller. You want to use to rollers. The ones above then gua sha those same areas causing it to relive tension as well as sculpt them.

Now the most important part of it all. Trimming the nose garden. I struggle with long nose airs so this is perfect. Cassie uses the ConairMAN Battery-Powered Ear and Nose Hair Trimmer. This costs $25.

➮ You want to then put on a Reusable Face Towel Mask. Cassie uses this to depuff her face even more (As if the ice roller wasnt enough). However it is easier to just put the towel mask on your face while you do other things.

Down in Roseluck's basement. Daisy and Lily have their hooves wrapped around each other as they shiver in fear. Just moments ago, their dear friend Roseluck was with them, but then in a freak instance. A magic flash enveloped their fellow flower pony, her screams traumatizing her two friends as she vanished before their very eyes. Now quite worried about the safety of their friend, they seek each other for comfort. It's been at least a good few minutes since Roseluck had disappeared

"L-l-l-l-lily, i-i-i'm s-scared! I... t-t-think the s-s-s-s-Storm King has k-k-kidnapped Rose!"

"I-I don't know what to do! This is a disaster!" Lily held Daisy close, fearing that they might be next. It took everything in her willpower to not faint like she usually would in a stressful situation. "W-why… why would he kidnap Rose!? What if… what if she's not the only one who was taken?! What if we're next!?" The horror of the situation was making her mind jump to some very dark conclusions. "W-w-we have to get s-somepony to help! Oh, but what if he's already gotten to Princess Twilight and the others too? I wish we knew if she was at least safe...."

As if on cue, and conveniently after Lily's wish. Another bright flash appears, both mares freak out and hug each other tighter in at least an attempt to save the other from disappearing or at the very least going with them. For if the Storm King is going to enslave them, best they try to have a friend with them. The flash soon disappears as fast as it came in, and they each peek one eye out. And see they're both in the basement still, relieved that neither of them were captured too. Though then they look at the center of the room, and they gasp.

"Hi girls!! I'm back!" Roseluck cheerfully smiled with her hooves raised in the air as she returned to her friends, seemingly safe, and oddly joyful as ever.

The sudden flash caused Lily to scream… that scream of terror is soon replaced by one of joy. Tears filled her eyes as she saw Roseluck suddenly appear in front of them. "ROSE!! YOU'RE OK!" Lily wiped her eyes.

They were both half filled with joy, but also quite unnerved. As Roseluck had not returned as she had looked before she came back. An exotic garb had adorned her face, ears, and hooves... and her lower half was completely gone! Where her hindlegs and tail would be was a floating, waving different kind of tail that started from Roseluck's hips and were anchored by a vase.

"We thought the Storm King had taken you, and that we'd be next! What happened and..." She now got a good look at Rose's attire and the fact that she was floating above them… along with the vase she was supposedly coming out of. Her mind once again jumped to conclusions. "NOOOOO! ROSE HAS BEEN TURNED INTO A FANCILY DRESSED GHOST! THE HORROR, THE HORROR!!!" She looked like she was about to faint once again.

Roseluck quickly flew to Lily's side. "No no no no! It's ok! I'm not a ghost! Nor am I dead, if anything, I'm the exact opposite! I'm immortal now! But girls, I have so much news to tell you!"

"News?! You mean like... good and bad news...?!" Daisy shivered

Roseluck giggled "No! It's more like I have good news... AND EVEN BETTER NEWS!" She beamed an infectious wide grin and raised her hooves in the air.

"So… you're not a ghost… whew… ok..." Lily calmed down a bit but this new appearance was still a bit off-putting to the easily skittish mare. "Wh-what kind of good and even better news do you have? And… how did you become immortal? Or get these new clothes? Did..." she gasps again "Did you MARRY the Storm King to garner a deal with Equestria?! A-and he's given you powers and a new outfit!?" Clearly she can't help herself but jump to conclusions, that or she's been reading too many romance novels.

Daisy raised an eyebrow, that guess was a bit over-the-top even for Lily's usual conclusions.

Whereas Roseluck giggles outloud. "Hehe, that's not it either! But I'll start with the regular ol' good news. The Storm King has been defeated! I don't know how exactly. But I just met and got word from this mare named Starlight that told me as well as Twilight and friends that the Storm King is no longer a threat! Equestria is in the clear!"

"w-w-w-w-w-WHHHHAAAAAAAT?! You m-mean... we're... s-s-s-safe?! But… wait… How is that ONLY the good news?!" Daisy has a skeptical face, feeling like like this has to be too good to be true

Lily did feel a bit sheepish about her out there guess. But this news was welcome indeed. Lily beamed, pulling the two into a big hug. "That's wonderful! We don't have to live in fear of him now!" She let out a very relieved sigh. "But I'm with Daisy, how could there be BETTER news than that!? Equestria's been in a tizzy since his declaration of invasion!"

"Tee hee! Coincidentally, it involves the same mare who broke the news! I don't know her past or anything, but she's absolutely amazing! She happens to be a real-life, honest-to-goodness genie! AND SHE TRANSFORMED ME INTO ONE TOO!"

"W-W-W-W-WHAAAAAAAT?! GENIES?!" Now that made Lily's guess seem normal by comparison. Even if the evidence seems to be staring right in front of them, the attire, Roseluck's missing lower half, and the vase on the floor that Roseluck seemed to be connected to.

At least Lily's guess was based on a Beauty of the Beast-type fantasy that can technically happen in Equestria. As there have been, albeit fairly rare, cases of Ponies romancing dragons and yaks. But genies seem completely out of the question. Even for a magical land like Equestria.

Lily's mind felt like it had just short circuited, this was almost too fantastical to believe even for her. "Genies are real?? YOU'RE A GENIE NOW?! CAN YOU GRANT WISHES AND DO ALL SORTS OF IMPOSSIBLE THINGS?!" Even with floating proof right there in front of them, it would take more time to really sink in. "So this Starlight must be absolutely incredible! Some kind of hero genie to work with the Elements of Harmony! That would also explain why you're floating from this vase!" She points towards Rose's vessel.

Getting a good look at it, she's quite impressed by the quality. "I have to say it looks quite impressive too! Got your cutie mark on it! Though it does look a little different… that's weird... Still! Imagine what we could do for our shop if we had more like yours to sell flowers in! I think they'd look great in them, and we could have the flowers painted on like yours too!" Something comes across Lily's mind "But I'm still confused, why were you taken in the first place?"

"Apparently, Twilight and friends wished from Starlight for me to be there, and they asked me to receive the Element of Kindness. Twilight apparently wanted me to substitute for Fluttershy for some reason. I admit that because of both the Storm King being defeated and becoming a genie has made me so happy... I forgot much of what Twilight told me! But regardless of the circumstances, I was blessed with overwhelming feelings of kindness! I passed down free roses to everypony I saw mere moments after receiving the necklace!" She beamed a grin, and had stars in her eyes.

"SO YOU'RE THE ELEMENT OF KINDNESS NOW TOO!?" Lily felt like she was going to faint from information overload, if she wasn't seeing Rose in front of her right now, she wouldn't be believing any of it. "I just… I can't..." She put a hoof to her head. "This is just so much to take in, Rose.... you're gonna give me a heart attack! Next you'll be telling us that you're going to be crowned a princess or something even more insane! I don't think I can take any more shocks!"

Daisy just about has a migraine from all this information filling her head, and much of her is admittedly a little skeptical of all of this being true. "I don't know, Rose... this seems all so farfetched... I think you need to back it up with some solid proof..."

Roseluck nods "Understood, it should be easy enough to prove! All I need to do… is to grant a wish from each of you. So go ahead, girls. What do you desire?" She smiles in anticipation for her first granted wishes.

"A wish? Yeah! That would give us both solid proof this is all real!" She puts a hoof to her chin. "But what do I wish for....?" Lily looks very focused, thinking on what might be good. (Do I get something for the shop? No… no, I'd like to improve that with all three of us working together, that's what makes it fun...wait I know!) As if a light went off in her head, Lily speaks up. "Ok Rose, you know how we always have our fair share of panic attacks? I always hoped that some day these fainting spells and freak outs would come to an end. SO, I wish you could make me less prone to fainting and being so freaked out from every little thing! I know it's not like something physical, but that should still work... right?"

Daisy herself seems deep in thought as she thinks what she should wish for first. "Say, wait, before I make the wish... you aren't like... limited to 3 wishes and then you're stuck in a cave for thousands of years are you?! Because if that's the case... I'd rather make no wishes at all..."

Roseluck shakes her head and smiles "Nah, don't worry Daisy! That was just a narrative limit for stories like Aladdin. As otherwise the heroes would win too easily, actual genies are far more free then you could ever believe! You two could have as many wishes as you want, so feel no need to pressure yourselves"

That comes as a relief to the both of them. "In that case, I'll start with something simple. I heard Lily mention your vase. And I have to agree, it's a beautiful vase. I wish we each had one of our very own!"

Lily smiles at Daisy, thinking that both of these wishes are good, one being physical the other being more internalized. And the explanation of how genie wishes really work makes Lily a bit excited for any future wishes to come. With Rose being their friend, they'd have access to infinite wishes, but she didn't want to take advantage either.

Roseluck takes some time to think over both these wishes. And after a brief self-deliberation, she begins to giggle madly. "Hehehehe.... ahehehehehe~. I was hoping you both would ask for a wish in this manner~. Cause I know just the thing... that will grow two seeds with one drop of water!"

Lily’s thought process was shaken as Rose began to laugh. It sounded almost… villainous. "R-Rose? Why are you laughing like that?" She'd never heard such a tone from her friend before. Her mind jumped to conclusions yet again "Don't tell me… were you… possessed by some spirit?! The storm king has returned to haunt you for taunting him?! Your laugh is scaring me!"

Roseluck immediately calms down her laughter "Sorry Lily, I didn't mean to scare you. I was just thinking how much I was going to enjoy granting these two wishes, and how happy the three of us will be… for all-time!~ But let's start off with Daisy's wish..."

Roseluck raises her hooves that glow with red rose-colored magic.

"D-don't scare me like that!" She did calm down a little but she was still on edge hearing her friend sound like that at all. Watching her use magic for the first time did put some of these thoughts aside. Being earth ponies, the thought of ever being able to cast a spell only seemed possible in their wildest dreams. She looked in awe at the magic coming from Rose's hooves.

Soon, two vases fade into existence right in front of Daisy and Lily. Each one painted the same color as their respective coats and a stopper of similar color to their manes and tails. Neither of them had the cutie mark insignia like it does on Roseluck, but they otherwise matched the exact shape and size as Roseluck's own vase.

Daisy approaches her vase with stars in her eyes. She could see a warped reflection of herself with how clean and smooth it was. "Wow...." is all Daisy could mutter as she observes the vase from up close.

"Amazing!" Lily trotted over to her own vase, there was a shine to it that she couldn't take her eyes off of. "It's so… pretty. Guess we'll have to paint our marks on it, huh? That could be a fun project! Oooh, and we could sell something like this for the shop! Personalized vases!" Before she let herself get distracted any further, she looked back to Rose ``Oh right! Now it's my turn right?"

Roseluck nods "Mmhmm, and believe it or not. The secret to your wish... will be found inside your vase~. And Daisy, I know you have some of your own fears even if you don't jump to conclusions as often as Lily does. But in a way, I still granted Lily's wish for you too! Inside these vases, are the secret to all of us never fearing anything ever again!"

Daisy raises an eyebrow in skepticism "Something... inside these vases... are supposed to clear any fear of ours for good? Even for a genie this sounds unlikely..."

"Why don't you open the vase for yourself then, Daisy? And take a look inside~" Roseluck smirks.

Daisy shrugs "Well... if you say so..." Daisy takes off the topper with her mouth and looks down into the barrel. At the same time, Roseluck secretly locks the door to her basement from the other side with a brief flick of a hoof behind her back.

The way Rose explained how her wish was granted confused Lily. "The answer is… inside the vase? I didn't think it'd be something physical that would just make us not so scared… but why not just bring it out here? I'm with Daisy on this one, it just sounds really unlikely..." She watches as Daisy opens her vase first. There's a faint 'click!' in the distance but with Lily and Daisy focused on the vases, they couldn't hear it.

In the rather dimly lit basement, Daisy can't see anything but pitch black with not much light shining in the vessel for her to see what's inside.

"What do you see Daisy?" Lily asked curiously

Daisy moves her head away from the vessel to look toward Rose

"It’s too dimly lit in here to see anything in there, Lily. But either way… I don't know about this, Rose... there doesn't seem to be anything i-i-i-i-iNNNNNNNN HEEEEEERRRRR-AHHHHHMMMMMMMMMHHHHHHHMPPpphhh!"

The vase pulls in Daisy's nose, and quickly muffles Daisy's shrieks as her mouth enters. She puts her hooves on the edges of the vase instinctively to try to pull herself out, but that only helps the vessel faster as her own hooves follow her head and neck.

Knowing full well this was going to make Lily run straight for the door, or failing that, a corner of the room. Roseluck opens Lily's vase and points it towards her.

Lily screamed when she witnessed her friend's face and head stretch straight into the vase that Roseluck had created for her "DAISY!!! ROSE, WHAT DID YOU DO TO HER!? WHY DID THAT HAPPEN?!" Her heart rate skyrockets, immediately panicking as her fight or flight responses take over. She fumbles about with her hooves, trying to run, but the door wasn't getting any closer… in fact it felt like she was getting pulled back.

"No, NOOOO!!!" She looked back to see that Rose had opened up her own vase, and it was sucking her in! Her blond tail elongated first, followed by her hindlegs. She looked like she was about to cry. "Rose, we're your friends! Wh-wh-why are you doing this to us?!"

"I understand your fear, Lily. But this is a necessary step in the process, and I don't mean in a face your fear kind of way. Allow me to at least clear your last feelings of uncertainty. I am giving you two none other than the kindest gift I can think to give… we will all be genies together! Making each other's wishes come true, and spreading this joy to others like a flower spreading its pollen... And with the power we will have, nothing will ever scare us again!" Roseluck knows that Lily's fear isn't going to make this easier. Roseluck was just about entirely willing throughout her entire transformation even before her hooves touched the vase, so she's not entirely aware of the vessel's ability to make even the most reluctant ponies bend to its will. But she hopes once Lily is released, she'll understand.

At the same time, Daisy's hindlegs and pony tail have been lifted off the ground. Daisy's hooves kick wildly for a moment before they slowed down as if suddenly Daisy began to accept her fate. For Lily, more and more of her tail is pulled within the vessel. Dragging her slowly towards the vase's opening. Her hindlegs swirl around each other and merge until Lily has the same sort of half-body column of smoke that Roseluck has had the entire time.

"That all sounds nice… B-b-but that's not what I wished for! I didn't ask to be a genie! It's not what Daisy wished for either! Please, j-just make this stop, Rose! This isn't like you at all!" Despite her tail and hindlegs getting sucked in already, Lily still tried to run, she knew it was futile but she had to try anyway.

She could see that Daisy had already been sucked in about halfway in, panicking similarly to her… then she stopped. "D-Daisy?! Rose, this is just horri..." The elongated tail that was her hindlegs connected to the vase at last, an electrifying tingle rocks through her body, her mind opening up like a flower in bloom. "Horri.... Hoooooo~ ....wh-what is this~? It's the... furthest thing from a horrible disaster..."

Her scared expression shifts to a pleasured looking one. Lily stopped trying to run as she let the vase now suck her in further. up past her hips. "R-rose, why didn't you start with this.... instead of… ooooh~... scaring us....?"

Roseluck lets out a small gasp seeing how quickly Lily turned around "Huh... I'm as surprised as you are if I'm honest, Lily... when I was being transformed. I wasn't even scared, I was still reeling from the effects of the Element of Kindness overwhelming me. I did remember it being particularly.... pleasurable when it got to where you are now. But I didn't know it'd be capable of calming you so quickly, so I apologize... Granted... I imagine the fact I didn't warn you when I thought you'd be kicking and screaming the whole way in is rather deceptive of me... but I promise I held no ill intentions. Just let your vase smooth all your fears and worries away~"

Next to Roseluck and Lily, Daisy's hindlegs straighten up in one last kick before they slip into the vessel. All that's left was Daisy's green ponytail, which quickly gets slurped up like a noodle by the vase. The vase's stopper falls onto the opening, sealing Daisy inside. Daisy's cutie mark, albeit slightly changed, starts fading onto the side.

Lily puts her hooves behind her back as she floats vertically above her vase. The sensation and tingling only increased the more of her enters the vase. She starts getting pinched down, her body making an upside down cone shape with her shoulders and head being the widest part of her body while the rest of her body seems to have formed a near triangle above her vase. She squirms as her forehooves enter the vessel, but not as an attempt to escape. The pleasure's simply making her shake in ecstasy.

Most of what Rose told her seemed to fall on deaf ears. Her mind was too absorbed by the pleasurable feelings to really understand. But she did hear the apology "It'ssssss fine now… I forgive… oooooh~… you, Rose." All of her fears, worries, doubts, they all seemed to just fade away as she was sucked further in. As she leaned her body back, the sensations continued to get stronger, until... "AAAAHHHH~!!" One last moan that echoes throughout the basement as the 3rd member of the trio completes her genification.

Like Daisy's vase, the top for hers seals it shut, the three lilies that made up Lily's cutie mark slowly took shape on the vase with all of them being stretched downward.

Both vases rumbled as they were fully sealed, the transformation having been complete. All that needed to be done now was for Rose to let her flowery genie friends bloom into a new phase of their lives.

Roseluck claps her hooves together and thinks to herself (That was fun! Can't wait to do this again but as a proper genie trio!). She then lifts open the stoppers, the vessels trembling before releasing two different shades of pink with green and blonde sparks rising all the way to the ceiling. The ends of the smokes form into the silhouettes of the two flower ponies, before the both of them fade in, Daisy's veil and leggings are green while Lily's are a bright white. The two let out long satisfied sighs as their emergence completes.

"That... was certainly a ride... but a ride I wouldn't mind going on again~" Daisy's eyes go lidded as she basks in the transformation she just received.

Lily bursts out of her vase, the magical clouds that emerged with her looking like pollen that had just been released. She takes a moment to really adjust to this, examining her new jewelry and white veils. The genie magic flowed through her freely, in her mind it felt as if she'd been unshackled from her previous thinking. There was no longer fear within her, but excitement. "Gosh, I feel like a whole new me! It really was scary at first, but now I think I could take on just about anything! But most importantly...." She swirls around the other two, pulling them into a hug "We can be together like this, forever!!"

Roseluck and Daisy return the hug. "I'm glad the both of you love it, too! Now how about we relax, and make the gardens of our dreams within our vessels... and tomorrow... I think we should make plans to visit Junebug~" Roseluck suggested with a smile

Daisy beamed putting her forehooves on her cheeks "Ooooo, yes! Junebug must absolutely join us for this! Flower ponies, pollinating the world with our wondrous magic!"

"You didn't tell us we could do that! Oooh I know just how I'll be setting it all up too! This will mean we can grow anything in any season without worry!" Lily's eyes lit up at this plan. "That's a wonderful idea! With Junebug with us, we can make the world a better, more flowery place! Why keep this all to ourselves?"

The trio then each enter their own vessel to construct a field of their favorite flowers all around them. Roses, Daisies, and Lilies respectively. When they were done, the trio entered eachother's vessels and marveled at every one of their best friends' fields. They'll have plenty to do and talk about, before they let in a 4th pony in on their wonderful transformations and endless, never-ending gardens..

Dove Reads Big Ethel Energy #2-11 (62-71)

Alright, I said I was going to read through this season and I did get to episode #3 before I completely dropped off for a while.

So I'm back and once more into the breach we go. Time for Dove's Big Ol' Review/Comment Electric Boogaloo cause this is going to be big.

Episodes 2

Not much to say there honestly. It might just be me personally, but I feel the writing is clunky or zipping by too fast in setting up problems for Ethel, such as the chapters about the all-female Olympiad and regarding women in Riverdale for the biography being removed from the book. It sucks of course, but also the way these problems are set up feel like it's a problem simply to be a problem rather than naturally occurring. Perhaps I'm being overly aware of how BEE goes about setting up issues regarding gender and sexism, but it feels rushed and doesn't jive with me.

Episode 3

My same complaint as before is that the issues and how they're present feel shoe horned. Also applied to Ethel and Moose's dynamic just doesn't feel cute or clever.

I do however love their idea for Coach Treadwell to use Moose being in her position as a reason for her to get a pay raise. That is a good idea.

Episode 4

Ethel needs to pick a lane on whether she want the distance from Seth or not. Like I get it being sudden and weird, so it's weird for her to figure out the boundary, but I believe she is also the one who brought up needing Seth to keep his distance.(Though I would need to check back near the end of season 1)

Also he just helped you up. That's it. That's him being nice and isn't something that should be read into.

Ok see? This is cute and natural sounding writing that I love.

What I don't like is what feels like the set up for a love triangle/Ethel potentially developing feelings for Seth. I really get a sense of developing guilt in her talking to Seth while she's dating Moose. Though this may also just potentially point toward the writer making Moose a jealous boyfriend like I've mentioned in the past, and perhaps drawing from his angry personality in the comics.

Hm. Dilton is a teacher? I guess we'll get more out of that later.

Episode 5

MOOSE BOOY WHY ARE YOU LYING ABOUT THE NEW TEACHER BEING DILTON?!?! I hope Ethel told him about what happened with Veronica and the cyber bullying.

I also do not like what they've done to my precious nerd Dilton :c . Honestly no one is like themselves. They merely have the facade of them.

Hmmm...questions about long distance. Who do we know that is away?

Seth.

(I know. I know. I'm pulling at nonexistent threads, but my brain immediately thought of Seth. Then her life in New York of course.)

Episode 6

Ok, I know I'm nitpicky, but why did they not put Nancy in a different outfit than her regular one for the poster?

The veneer of perfection in Ethel's life and her having these moments to gush just don't endear me to Ethel as a character.

Episode 7

I smell jealousy and more misunderstandings on the horizon. Honestly, all problems in this comic can't be based on misunderstandings.

Episode 8

Considering we spent a good portion of the first season revolving around Ethel's woes and the reader is meant to feel sorry of her/empathizing with her and her problems and now we are seeing Ethel have access to a very luxurious apartment, that her life is relatively problem free, except for social problems, once again makes her a very unrelatable character. There's a dissonance I feel here as a reader. She feels less like a rounded character and feels more like dream fulfillment.

Now if it was Veronica helping her out then it would make more sense for me. At least it would feel like the comic is playing within the rules of the universe and using established characters. And it would have been nice and fun!

So basically they just have a nice time together in New York and Ethel sorta/implicitly wants to convince him about New York/wants him to like it there, which I get if you're worried about the future of your relationship when you and your partner live in two different places.

Also minor complaint: I know it's webcomic and that this is a job with time constraints, but if you're going to do the sprawling city scapes and the message is to sell the character to the setting then I think it should look nicer/sell the scenery to the reader too.

Episode 9

Now in contrast to the last episode which focused on the scenery this episode focuses on culture and it does so well to sell you on it. Talking about the rush of getting a seat on the subway, that Ethel would tackle someone for a set is fun and entertaining! It draws you in!

Also showing Moose unable to fully adapt to it all and that he was tired due to the fast paced nature of the city was nice too.

Seeing Ethel's growth and that she is comfortable to say I love you to Moose is nice as well. This is what I like seeing from characters.

Episode 10

This episode focuses on Seth and Trula. Seth talks about how his last relationship was five years ago. Truly talks about being aromantic.

And maybe I wasn't wrong about what I said about connecting the dots earlier. Seth seems to have feelings for Ethel perhaps? That's what I think this is hinting at at least.

This response from Ethel is unnecessarily aggressive. I don't think they've really talked about it in detail, so I don't know why the response is aggressive. Like you can't be mad if you haven't talked about it. Now if I'm just forgetting and they have had this conversation repeatedly then I understand why she would be annoyed with Moose's comment.

When it comes to Moose and Ethel together Ethel is the lead I feel like and there is a lack of balance between them. Or perhaps it's that despite the fact they are portrayed as happy together they don't actually compliment each other as a couple.

Perhaps it's just me, but I don't see their relationship lasting in this comic.

Episode 11

I've connected the dots. I told you! I'm not the only one!

Me: -DISBELIEF-

This is not going to end well. Moose's jealousy is definitely going to be part of the death knell of their relationship. Remember what I've said. Mark my words.

Ethel also talks about feeling guilty regarding talking to Seth since he isn't Moose's favorite person, and I feel like while part of the guilt is due to Moose's on insecurity affecting her, I also think that a sense of guilt may be due to her potentially having underlying feelings toward Seth.

And that's if for my commentary on the episodes so far!

Ok lessee. What (assuming they had knowledge of our reality) would be their favorite fictional super *heroes*? Anime/ non conventional/ non cape answers are on the table.

What's their "i need to be fucking COSY" outfits.

What would they get the others for a bday/Crimbo situation?

oh this is some JUICY type questions thank you (putting under a cut cause I can already tell this is gonna get long LOL)

SUPERHEROES! This is funny because I think Davey is the only one who would like the actual *hero* part of the superhero equation, at least actively and consciously. I think he likes pulpy silver age type stuff and he's got a real soft spot for when it gets goofy. He *IS* the guy who actually knows Calendar Man's whole deal. I have a feeling his favorite would be Spider-Man, especially stories/serials that emphasize that he's just kind a regular nerdy loser whose focus is on protecting the folks in his community first and foremost.

Minnie... she strikes me as the type who grew up on stuff like Power Rangers, but even that she would probably lean towards liking the villains more than the heroes (read: she likes Rita Repulsa a normal amount and is not going to unpack that She Was A Baby Lesbian About It until she's in, like, her mid-20s). I think at the age she is now, she's hitting the point where she'll insist Power Rangers is Baby Stuff (even though she'll watch it whenever it's on...) and is just getting into the Edgy 90s Anti-Hero Types. You know, your Harley Quinns, your Deadpools, your Venoms. I think she's probably written off magical girl stuff as too ~*girly*~ but is maybe a year or two away from watching Madoka on a dare and getting extremely fucked up about it (and probably giving more magical girl stuff a chance in the aftermath).

Buck is, I think, the most adamantly against any and all superhero media. He just, he hates all of it. Full stop. The pulpy stuff, the grimdark stuff, the alternative stuff, he either Does Not Get It at best or finds it actively grating at worst. The only thing I can see him getting into is maybe Tiger & Bunny - I think the concept of "yeah these superheroes are actively sponsored by corporations" would be just enough to catch his interest and then the single dad stuff would lock him in before he realized what was happening. You'd still have to like, catch him by surprise with it, though. Like, if you just left it on in a room he happened to be in he'd give it a glance, but I don't think he'd sit down and watch it on purpose otherwise.

COSY OUTFITS! Buck and Minnie are very similar in that regard - I think they both gravitate towards bulky, fluffy sweaters and sweatshirts. Those two want to be Bundled Up. I think Buck in particular likes heavier materials too. That man would very much benefit from a weighted blanket, I think. Davey, by contrast, is big on light and airy materials - he likes baggy, breezy sweatpants and tank tops and the like. If it's really cold, he'll probably just steal one of Buck's sweaters.

GIFTS!! This is a very interesting one, because all three of them have very different ways of displaying affection, and Minnie and Buck are both particularly stunted in that regard. Buck's very much the type who's going to show he cares more in actions than in words or items, so I think his go-to gift would be something like that. He's the "hey we happened to have ingredients for that dinner you like" or "hey I fixed the heater since you were complaining about the noise" kind of gifter - things that aren't particularly flashy or tangible, but prove that deep down he's thinking about you and wanting you to be happy and comfortable. I think Minnie and Davey both get particularly elaborate meals on birthdays/holidays, and I get the feeling he "gifts" things to Minnie's pet rat as a way of putting in some distance and not admitting directly that he really does care about his shitty little niece.

Davey, by contrast, is both VERY outwardly affectionate and very emotionally intelligent. I think he's the type who spends like, a month before holidays and birthdays listening really closely to what you're saying and probably subtly leading you into admitting what you want so he can surprise you with something really tailored to your likes. Minnie's easy because she has a lot of more "tangible" likes and hobbies - photography, science, animals, video games... - so he can pretty easily get her something along those lines and make her day. (I also think, selfishly, he probably leans towards getting her video games since it's something they have in common and he's hoping they can play together.) That said, I think he plays it off like he's not the one gifting it, since he knows Minnie's kind of emotionally gruff and he doesn't wanna put her on the spot - just oh how did this happen someone accidentally left this refill of polaroid film in the kitchen how did that get there. With Buck, on the other hand, I think he sticks to more "practical" things since that's what Buck likes - new supplies to tinker with for the mechs, or ingredients that are a little tough to find for a recipe he's been thinking about, or a new sweater to replace the one that got ripped up last month. He's also more direct with gifting to Buck, since they've been together long enough that Buck knows and is OK with him being outwardly affectionate (at least in the privacy of their own home).

Minnie, I don't think, has caught on that she can or Should be gifting things to Buck or Davey, at least when she first starts living with them - she's from kind of a privileged background and had a cold relationship with her parents so I think the most she would have done back then is half-assing a homemade card when socially pressured to do so. I think eventually she would start catching on and being a little embarrassed about it, though, and at that point I think it starts manifesting a lot like Buck's gift-giving tendencies - she's more about action than more tangible items. Buck gets a little less back-talk on his birthday, and Davey gets a couple extra rounds of Street Fighter with her on holidays.

Okay, for like, the past week now, I’ve been reminded of yet another idea I had for a video game that I made a couple years ago, thought I might as well share it

I would share art at the top of it, but unfortunately the only art I have of it is a rough sketch I made back October 2020 of the main character, 97, which is old and not really what I imagine her to look like (other than the pink hair)

At some point, I’ll probably try to redesign her, along with drawing the other two notable characters. I feel like she needs more color in her outfit, and I want to make her more pink. Though I think the reason I avoided doing so was so that she wouldn’t look too much like Red Action from OK KO. I dunno

The whole premise was based off of me wanting having this old book from my dad called Robotech (which I think is an anime? Or a mishmash of several anime for an American audience?), which on the cover has what looks like a screenshot from an old anime.

I kept thinking the main character had bright pink hair, but she doesn’t, but then I wanted to see something where the main protagonist has bright pink hair. Then somehow that translated to Number 97. Maybe I should keep that influence when designing her, basing her off of old sci fi/gundam anime. Unfortunately I don’t know that many, and it’d probably require me watching them, and I have a bad habit of not watching the things I tell myself to watch

But yeah, anyways, let’s get into everything I remember of the plot of 97’s story (I never named it)

So basically the premise is that 97 is a cyborg, attempt number 97 by this particular group, hence her name, who’s people have been fighting a very long war with…something, I never actually came up with what. Either aliens or robots (specifically robots of alien origin). Anyways, so this group was using technological advancements as a way to combat the villains (which from here on I’m just going to call aliens for the sake of simplicity). I say “technological advancements” because despite the main character’s name being “Cyborg 97”, not all of the attempts were cyborgs, as some were robots, and some were just general enhancements to regular humans. But since they all were meant to serve the same purpose, they all stay in the same numbering system. So 97 (note I don’t actually have a normal name for her other than 97) was originally a normal soldier in the military fighting against the aliens, which we would see in the opening level of the game, serving as a prologue and introduction to the basic game systems, until this particular mission ends in disaster, which leads to 97 getting picked up by the cyborg company and being turned into one, being an elite fighter against the aliens. She had lost each of her limbs and pretty much her whole lower body up to the hip, with it all being replaced by cybernetics. Basically you go around doing missions and fighting enemies, and it’s like a Metroidvania style 2D platformer

But maybe forget the whole “aliens” thing, because I realize now that the plot, namely the main enemies, don’t really have to do with them. Instead, the people you end up fighting are other cyborgs made by the same company. That’s kind of a mishap on my part, but also I can’t just get rid of the cyborg characters or have them be working with the aliens, that’s not what they’re about, not unless I make up something about the aliens not being what we think. Hm, I’ll have to work on that

Anyways, so there’s actually two different routes the story goes, the 96 route, and the 98 route. I’m gonna start with 96 since it’s the one you’re first presented with

So basically, the cyborg prior to 97, 96, went rogue and took some of the older abandoned cyborgs and starting leading a rebellion group against this company, causing general mayhem in the streets. Your job is to take down 96 and his gang and stop their threat. Granted, you’re more presented at first with the “they’re a threat to the general populace, causing destruction wherever they go, stop them”, rather than them specifically being against this company. So yeah, you go and defeat them (and probably kill them) one by one, which I’m only now realizing sounds very similar to the plot of a Megaman game. Not sure I really knew Megaman at the time though

So 96’s cybernetics go specifically from the waist down, with him having feet more similar to a bird (sorry I didn’t know where else to put this). Now 96 tends to come off as a bit of an asshole, as he really only seems to care about cyborgs and little for humans. He’s also around 17-19 (after becoming cyborgs, they stop aging physically and mentally for whatever reason, so despite the fact he’s likely around his mid 20s now, he’s still like that), and very much comes off like an arrogant bastard. But he’s not just a jerk, as he does care about the other cyborgs, and when you first meet his group, he’s even open minded about 97 joining them at some point, if she ditches the company. And in the 98 route, you get to see more about him, like the fact that he misses his old friends and family, some of which died in the accident that made him a cyborg, and some he’s not sure are still alive, but given his now criminal status, he can’t go see for risk of them being in danger. By the end of the 96 route, he just wants 97 dead, but that’s because by this point she has decimated the people he now calls friends, and people he knows aren’t to blame for the way their lives have gone, becoming cyborgs usually against their will and being discarded as they were no longer considered “people”. He may have been open minded to you, but now you’ve proven yourself nothing more than a monster to him

If I haven’t made it clear, the company 97 works for aren’t exactly nice people. Maybe at the start they had pure intentions, but by the higher numbers, they’re mostly a corrupt and rotten system. And while yes, you don’t get the full scope on 96 as a person, you are told enough to know that he and the rest of the cyborgs aren’t necessarily bad people, even if some things they do are extreme, though it’s necessary for them to have better lives like this. 96 left because he had learned the rotten truth of the people he was working for, which is something you learn in this route. But unfortunately, in the 96 route, there is no saving these people, you just have to take them out and become little more than a machine following orders

However, in the 98 route, you can instead choose to go against the missions the company gives you, eventually leading to you joining 96’s group and rebelling against them, in which you also get to know all the other cyborgs in his group (that in the other route you mercilessly kill), as well as just get to know 96 as a person. In this route, the conflict is rebelling against the company and trying to take them down in some way

Now in this route, the big enemy you have to face is Cyborg 98, as noted by the route name. Something of note here is that 98 doesn’t exist in the 96 route, as she doesn’t need to. New cyborgs are made when the last one fails, rebellion being considered a failure. 98 was another soldier in 97’s squad (who you’d actually see in the opening level, you just wouldn’t know it was her), however she was a newcomer as opposed to 97’s over a decade of experience (I should probably note their ages here, 97 is in her mid to late 30s while 98 is in her early to mid 20s). She ended up in a disaster as well (possibly the same one as 97? I’m not sure), and was turned into a cyborg after 97’s desertion. However this time, the only human thing remaining of 98 is her head, sort of similar to Raiden, and all of her cybernetics were not in fact necessary, but we’re done so intentionally by the company

Something I forgot to mention but is relevant, there’s a reason the company as of now uses cyborgs instead of robots, that being that cyborgs (or at least the ones they use) have a human mind, and can think like a human, not being limited to what can be programmed, making them more effective in battle

The reason for 98’s extreme cybernetics is because 97 was actually the last chance they were willing to take on a fully free willed cyborg. With the disaster that was 96 and his active rebellion, as well as other cyborgs turning against them, they were thinking free will was more a liability than a boon. So 97 was the last chance given for this, and if she rebelled, while the next one would still have a human mind, given it’s optimal, they would have their free will stripped, as shown with 98. While yes, she can make her own decisions, if she veers too far from what they want her to do, they can take control of her, and she is very much an unwilling participant in all this, being stuck prisoner in her own body. I’m thinking a way this could be conveyed is with a level where you play as her, where you’re given the option of not doing the mission and veering off path, if you do enough off the path, control will literally be taken away from you as the game runs automatically till the end of the level. She recognizes 97 as her old commander and looked up to her, and doesn’t want to fight her, but she’s left no choice as her own body is piloted by other people to attack her. She’s stuck in a living hell and at this point would rather die, but is unable to do it herself

So by the end of the 98 route, you put her out of her misery, but unfortunately, you haven’t been able to take down the company, and are far from doing so, so you haven’t stopped the problem, and with another cyborg failed, the company will go to make another one just like 98, and the whole cycle repeats again

So yeah, basically both endings suck, but for different reasons. Unfortunately, there is no “true ending” where you save everyone or you do what’s objectively right, it’s more a matter of picking your poison. I remember there was something I was trying to say with the two downer endings, but I don’t remember what

I’ve considered the idea of a true route where you do exactly that, mostly because the other two endings might seem a bit too much of a downer, but also doing that completely invalidates both endings as being “the bad ones”, and takes away their impact, so I might just stick to those two

I don’t know how exactly you get each route, but maybe there’s like some sort of in game counter for how many “missions” of each side you do, and by a certain point in the story, whichever one you have more of determines where the rest of the story goes. I dunno, I’m not a programmer

But yeah, that’s 97. Sorry for the somewhat haphazard way of giving info, I didn’t really know how properly convey all of it. But I hope you enjoyed it!
