#He's overwhelmed xD

There was a day, a day where there was nothing that needed to be done, nobody to meet, not meetings to schedule, nothing to fight.
A rare, rare day for one Kevin the cat.
As the second in command of his Familia, who the Head delegates most of his responsibilities due to not wanting to do that at all, it is unusual that he no longer has much to do anymore.
With a pretty efficient system in place for each and every division to have an executive and their own second in commands who will soon take their place. It leaves Kevin with not as much to do anymore nowadays, most things being taken care of by other cats.
A meeting between the Familia Heads wouldn't be for the next few moons, and there isn't anyone around for him to fight.
So what does he do, exactly?
Snuggle up to gramps of course!
===
Danny doesn't mind Kevin invading his personal bed and personal space, as he has done it quite often and will most likely continue to do so for the rest of his immortal life most likely.
It seemed to be a pretty slow day, if his observations served anything. Nothing significant was happening, and the overall vibe was calm and slow.
A good day, a rare day, seeing the normal chaos that usually occupied this warehouse. Perhaps asking Selina to buy the surrounding ones proved effective.
Either way, it was a nice day.
Laying down, doing nothing except watching Tv and not really fighting the sleep when it came. He was drowsy, about to close his eyes and fall into a dream.
Then everything disappeared.
He snapped to awareness very quickly, feeling the familiar weight of magic in the air and what was most definitely the pull of summoning. Which is weird, because not many would summon him, most go for the King, which is Pariah Dark, and not the Prince, which is him.
Oh well, whoever summoned him is most likely some teens or adults who had nothing better to do than get together and try to summon paranormal entities and demons or such and such. He would take some of their food for summoning him, and be on his way.
Or at least that was what he thought.
Apparently, he was summoned by a genuine cult this time. He would take teens and adults with nothing better to do, as well as that one time he was summoned by wizards and got turned into a cat over being summoned by genuine cultists any day.
It's just, not for him really.
They did, however, do their research. Very powerful wards that was built to keep whatever was summoned in, that whenever he tapped on actually hurt him.
Drawn with the extract of blood blossoms for ghostly beings from the infinite realms.
A red mist flowed around the room, one that made Danny's lungs felt as if they were on fire and withering all at once.
A mist made from Blood Blossoms.
To top it all off, there were multiple Blood Blossoms scattered throughout the place, most of which were around the circle that summoned him. It felt like someone brought a hammer to his skull and kept pounding, his muscles felt taut and like jelly all at once, barely keeping him standing on his own paws as his eyes stung from the mist around the room and from the Blood Blossoms themselves.
Whoever this was, they knew their stuff, and whoever this was, decided that going overboard was far better than underboard.
He thinks he heard one of them speak, but he couldn't quite make out whatever was said from the ringing of his ears. Eventually, he had to fall, his eyes struggling to be kept open.
He should turn back into a living cat, get out of his ghost form. But he couldn't, the willpower necessary to do so slipping out of his grasp and instead being replaced by pain, pain, and even more pain. Even the very magic in the air was against him, whatever intent those who summoned him imprinted upon it was made to specifically weigh him down, as if gravity itself were his enemy, to go against him at every turn.
Weaken him.
If he could, he would laugh, but he's in far too much pain to do so. In all of his 150 years of existence, he never expected to encounter something like this. Something this strong.
He wondered, if in all of Pariah Dark's infinite power, if he would be able to stand up to something like this. Perhaps he would, infinite power would let him be able to stand up to something like.
Infinite power, while weakened, is still infinite.
But he, Danny, Prince of the Infinite Realms, did not have infinite power. With his title came a recognition of his raw power, of his ability, and given him political power almost unmatched as he was one of the few that reigned over infinity.
But that was mostly it, perhaps a bit of boost to his power, and maybe a distinct signature due to his newfound status. But not much else.
And is this what it granted him? An end, where he was stripped away from comfort, from his home, from his Familia, where each and every breath he took burned and withered. Where his limbs failed him, where his own power was useless due to his willpower being drained by overwhelming agony.
He would not die, no. For he is incapable of death.
Yet that makes it even worse.
Would he spend an eternity like this? Trapped with nothing but overwhelming pain for company, becoming intimate with it as it raked its hands through his fur, under his skin, between each strand of muscle and piercing his brain?
He doesn't know, and that scares him.
===
The Justice League, with help from a few members of Justice League Dark, appeared to prevent the summoning of the Ghost King, known as a tyrant who enslaves worlds and a being of infinite power.
What they found, however, was not the Ghost King. But instead, magicians surrounding a circle in a room of red mist, in the middle of the circle a passed out, glowing white cat floating via magic.
They saw it as preparation to summon the Ghost King, perhaps the cat was a sacrifice? Regardless, they went in, and fought. Eventually gaining the upper hand due to have far more powerful members than just magical practitioners.
The cat, without aid from magic, fell to the floor, and Zatanna was quick to dispel the summoning in case it was in the process of calling forth Pariah Dark from beyond the veil. They took the cat back with them, for surely it had some kind of importance if they were using it for their summoning.
Later on, Constantine would choke as he recognized the significance of the cat, a signature quite similar to that of the King of the infinite, yet different.
They weren't just offering any old cat to the Ghost King, no, they were offering him his Prince, and if the look of how they handled it was any indication, it was planned to use said Prince as a bargaining to get the King into their servitude of some sort.
===
Meanwhile, back at the Familia.
All hell has broken loose, what semblance of order there was broke, the head was gone, missing. Not even the second in command, who was with him the longest, had a clue where or what happened to him.
He was there one second, gone the next.
Not many stays calm about it, the ones who do mostly trying to calm down the kittens after the panic of so many other grown, adult cats.
Kevin, the second in command and de-facto leader whenever the Head isn't involved. Panicking does not help any of the other cats feel assured.

So, I was checking out Rin’s page in the Ultra Analysis book 
And I came across THIS: 
Tumblr media
I am absolutely reeling at how cute this interaction is??? 🥺🥺🥺🥺 
I can just imagine the context of how it might have happened… 
Rin is in line at a hero meet and greet, tightly clutching an autograph book and wearing his best piece of hero merch, trembling with anticipation as he waits to meet his favorite hero, Ryukyu 
On the outside, he keeps his usual composure (or most of it, anyway) but on the inside, his heart pounds harder with every step he takes towards the front of the line 
And finally, he comes face to face with Ryukyu 
They exchange greetings, Rin muttering a quiet “ni hao” as he processes that oh my gosh I’m talking to my favorite hero right now- 
And after Ryukyu has signed Rin’s autograph book and returned it to him, Rin tries to muster up the words to tell her how much he admires her, how much she’s inspired him in his own journey to become a hero, inspired him to wholeheartedly embrace his quirk and push it to its limits… 
But all that comes out is: 
“Your… your quirk is so cool, ma’am…”
Aiyah! What am I, five? That sounded so lame! 
He quickly perks up when Ryukyu smiles warmly and thanks him, then asks him about his own quirk 
Rin’s eyes light up like a Christmas tree, and he quickly goes into detail explaining how his quirk works and his special moves inspired by her, barely able to contain his excitement 
“You can shoot your own scales? Incredible!” 
Rin’s heart nearly stops- did he hear that right? 
This hero that he admires so much 
This powerful hero in the top 10 
With the coolest quirk he’s ever seen in his life 
Thinks HIS quirk is incredible?? 
HIS??? 
QUIRK???? 
It takes every last bit of restraint Rin has not to break down in happy tears right then and there 
Instead, he sincerely thanks her, his voice a bit wobbly in spite of himself, and when they pose for a picture together, Rin’s smile is bright enough to blind a room 
He leaves the meet and greet walking on air and still smiling brightly, hugging his autograph book close to his chest 
Today was a treasured memory that he won’t be forgetting any time soon

I've been seeing lots of takes lately with people feeling hatred towards part 2 Speedwagon for being a greedy capitalist who probably exploited people and done some shady stuff to become wealthy because there was '''no way he could have become rich just from oil money'''... thoughts?
it's so disappointing to see some bad takes about the Speedwagon Foundation being some "acshually nasty organization" and about Speedwagon supposedly becoming some heartless rich man popping up again. And like, I shouldn't even be surprised at this point considering how the average "Jojo fan" mistreats Part 1 and 2 and alllll the misinformation they love to spread about them and about some characters in particular, often bastardizing them into wildly out of character versions and pretending those fanons are canon for whatever reason (being Speedwagon one of the characters that gets bastardized like that the most), sometimes just to make Blorbo Of Their Choice look better by throwing every other character under the bus, sometimes just because people can't be bothered to pay attention to the og if there are no punching ghosts on sight (and even then, Jojo parts featuring stands get misinterpreted a lot too).
This is gonna be long, so let me start by saying that if y'all really believe that Speedwagon somehow became some nasty ass rich man, then you're completely misinformed and you (and I say "you" in general and not specifically you anon) might benefit from rereading/rewatching the source material and actually paying attention to the plot and details this time.
Like, I've seen people assuming that the Foundation only researched the stone mask and eventually stand stuff, and completely forgetting that one of the literal main goals and also one of the biggest things the Foundation does is seeking for the betterment of the planet as a whole (preserving nature, wildlife, etc) as well as for the betterment of medicine and health care, actually seeking for the best for all humankind, this in addition to all the secret branches it has for the research of supernatural phenomena like stands, stone masks, pillar men, and so on in order to prevent as many incidents with them as possible and prevent the loss of as innocent lives as possible.
Sure, the people working for those latter branches might get into deep trouble sometimes whenever some jerk with a stone mask or a stand starts some shit, but, another thing jojo fans tend to conveniently forget is that those employees are working for the secret/non-public branches of the Foundation. We as audience know about them because we are let into seeing them working as part of the narrative, however, the public in general within the story DO NOT KNOW about the existence of those branches or what they do. Pillar men, stone masks, stands and the research around them are kept in secret in order to prevent any sorts of chaos and ensuing panic, among other safety reasons.
The people working for those branches are specialized or at least have some prior knowledge on those fields they work in (you'd think it is a MUST considering they are being let in on sensitive information that could be super detrimental for the planet and for humankind if it fell in the wrong hands), meaning that those employees already know and are fully aware of the kind of stuff they're going to deal with there from the start. They weren't deceived into it, and the fact that the employees remain loyal to Speedwagon from start to end and respect and follow his will, even long after his death, denotes that there was some deep and mutual respect and appreciation there, something you can't earn through exploitation, and definitely something these people wouldn't have done had Speedwagon been the heartless tyrant rich old man some people with a lack of media literacy want to believe and make others believe he was.
If people paid just a wee bit more attention to earlier Jojo parts, they would have realized it was all spelled out from the beginning too! Speedwagon expressly states from the very start his disgust and hatred towards the rich, being the Joestars the only exception to that due to them being genuinely kind persons, unlike most other wealthy people out there. He was also implied to have been dirt poor for most of his life and was also stated to have lived in the slums at least up to PB's main timeline. There were never any indications or signs that showed that he ever betrayed those roots of his by siding with the rich against the poor over the years. Instead, he's been using his funds to make the whole world a better place for everyone, not only by improving health care and access for all people as well as the environment (which would actually show a sense of duty from him as he is counteracting whatever negative impact his oil company may have had on the planet), but also providing all the aid he can against supernatural threats.
And not just that, but he's also kept some of his connections with the crime world over the years. However, rather than using those connections for selfish goals, he makes use of them to workaround the system in cases like Lisa Lisa's, where he used all those influences he had to help her go successfully into hiding after killing the zombie that murdered George (an undercover zombie that was actually a higher up within the army and who everyone believed to be a regular human, hence their chasing after her to make her pay for that "crime" she had supposedly committed). Additionally, if you know anything about big companies and organizations, you'll know that the law is also not always there to protect regular people, and sometimes, it will cater to the more profitable goals, as well as some businessmen actively being shady af and "hindering" their rivals for their own benefit. The Speedwagon Foundation being an organization that vouches and actively works for the wellbeing of people would have probably ruffled countless feathers among those who seek for a personal gain, to say the least (think of the hijackers that tried to kidnap him, as shown in the flashback in BT, i.e). This is also where those connections he keeps with criminals come into play, as there are never any mentions about Speedwagon doing shady stuff through them nor using them to pursue some personal goal, which hints at the fact that he keeps and uses those nexus as means of protection against actual enemies. Defense rather than offense, if you will.
Also, lets not forget that Speedwagon found his reason to change his ways when he met Jonathan, and that a lot of the things the Foundation does are things Jonathan himself would have gone into had he not passed away (the archaeological research, the deep studying of the stone mask -which eventually led to the discovery of the pillar men just in time before their awakening-, all in order to prevent more incidents like the whole thing with Dio from happening, and so on). It's downright silly to think Speedwagon would even think of betraying Jonathan and his memory by using not only the second chance he received from Jojo himself, but also using the literal monument Speedwagon built to honor the deep bond and mutual affection the two had back when Jonathan was alive for some selfish goal.
And also, lets not forget how disgusted he was with Dio and every single vile thing he did to everyone. Do you really think he would want to follow a path similar to his, in which people are just another step for him to walk all over?? If so, then you sure are completely wrong about who Speedwagon really is like.
Those "he became some nasty capitalist lol", pretending that Spw became some heartless and selfish wealthy man along the way for no reason, all despite the heaps of constant evidence the canon has presented, even long after Speedwagon's passing away in the story, that shows that that was never the case only go to show that people are lazy and that paying attention to the story and the details in it is just something some Jojo fans will actively refuse to do and then will make the worst bullshit takes up about it.
Also?? People do realize that it's possible to become rich and not be some piece of shit?? Like, sure, I do agree that most wealthy people irl ARE shit and scummy af, but there will always be a few exceptions, you just don't always see them because the real kind ones don't go around telling everyone about every single kind act they do, they just put their money to good use to make their own employees lives better, or invest/donate money every chance they get to some organization of their trust and so on. Adding to this, do you all even realize people can't just throw money out of the window and that as a business person you always need to keep some capital to actually make your business thrive and so you can continue helping other people out in this case where BIG SUMS of money are being put to use in favor of actual civilians and people from all walks of life??
((Edit to add yet another Very Obvious display that Speedwagon never sided with the rich, not even in his older years: Smokey Brown! The kid is literally a mirror of Speedwagon’s own younger self in that both were criminals from the streets in a large city (London in Spw’s case, NY in Smokey’s), immersed in crime and poverty and most likely having to resort to crime as a mean to survive in a society that was even more classist (and also racist, and this can actually be seen in BT when one of the mafiosos starts spewing shit towards Smokey due to his skin color) than it is nowadays, both having no known parents or family either and having been most likely orphaned/abandoned. Had Speedwagon been this nasty ass rich man, he could have simply ignored Smokey or treated him poorly, or could have even turned him to authorities, considering Smokey’s criminal record just for the sake of “preventing him from stealing from him” or whatever. There was literally nothing Spw could benefit himself from by keeping Smokey around like he did, which is a core trait in abusive/exploitative people. However, he never did any of that. Instead, and despite the reigning classism and racism at the time, Speedwagon along with Erina always embraced Smokey from the start and basically became his godparents, never letting the kid go back to his life in the streets, providing him with everything he needed and making sure he received a proper education, which was something very few people of color (black people, specially) could receive. And yet, Speedwagon and Erina made it happen, very likely using some of Spw’s influences to allow Smokey go to the school (and eventually college too) of his choice without any stigma or trouble at all and covering all expenses for him. -end of edit-))
If this was, idk, the Metal Gear series or some other media that revolves around the topic of politics, then the whole "cRaPiTaLisM!!! >:O" thing would have some weight and be plausible as it directly impacts the main plot of the story. But here?? In Jojo's?? Where the main focus as stated by it's author himself is the strength of the human spirit overcoming obstacles in the face of actual evil??? Try harder.
And, before I get That One Type of fans yelling at me that "people don't just get rich without exploiting people in real life!!"… do you guys realize we're talking about animanga series where vampires, funky stone masks with spooky powers, pillar men, stands, people who can use some ancient sunpowered martial art, plankton that can turn into a sentient person, and so on can happen, right? And yet I don't see anyone whining that "tHaT DoEsN'T hApPeN iRl!!".
And like, if this whole claim stems from disliking Speedwagon, just say you don't like him and move the fuck on. You don't need to try to justify your disliking for him or for ANY other characters, let alone making up wildly out of character bullshit about them to try to prove to yourself and to everyone else why according to you the character is "bad". I promise you it is not a big deal to simply not vibe with a character.

× Negative Trait Tag Game.
Tagged by @kharonion and @katsigian , thank you so much💜
RULES: bold what always or almost always applies, italicize occasional or situational, strikethrough never applies.
— VINCE —
Tumblr media
aggressive | arrogant | authoritarian | bitter | brutal | callous | cannibal | careless | cold/cold-hearted | compulsive | controlling | corrects others constantly | cowardly | critical | cruel | demanding | disillusioned | domineering | envious | emotionally stunted | greedy | grim | guarded | hard | harsh | hypocritical | impatient | impolite | intimidating | irritable | kidnapper | lazy | liar | lustful | materialistic | mean | merciless | messianic | mistrusting | narrow-minded | obsessive | opinionated | overbearing | over-critical | over-emotional | over-thinking | patronizing | proud | remote | repressed | rigid | rules with an iron fist | ruthless | sarcastic | self-righteous | self-indulgent | taciturn | torturer | touchy | traitorous | unsympathetic | unpredictable | uptight | vain | vengeful
This is a good list, but you know what's missing? deceiving, impressionable, indecisive, manipulative and stubborn!
Apart from that, I feel like I had to italicize a lot here, and that's because Vince is the type of person who really has two different faces depending on which circumstances you meet him under... the kind of pragmatic "True Neutral" alignment character that will do whatever suits his own purposes best in most situations, not too bothered with what is the morally good or bad thing to do.
He is not as cold-hearted as he can come across when he's in his slick "corpo persona" that he puts on when he has to deal with people on a professional level. He was made to believe his worth as a person is defined by how "useful" he is to others, and at the same time he's learned the hard way that showing weakness gets you swallowed quickly in Night City and the corporate world as a whole. It's this constant balancing act between being useful while not letting yourself be used that got him as far as he did.
At the same time, he is a bit of a dick who always wants to be right about everything. Behind the cool exterior is just this angry kid who's been fucked by life over and over again, had extremely high expectations put onto him and puts them on himself now, and has just really gotten kind of numb and disillusioned from the life he's leading. He's too proud and stubborn to ask for or accept help, craving to find some kind of meaning or purpose for himself in this whole mess, and then repeatedly falls for the wrong people and their empty promises.
On issues like his distrustfulness, his sarcasm, and his tendency to lie (about uncomfortable matters in particular) he is working though (not because he sees them as flaws necessarily, but more because it's these things that usually get him into the most trouble with the people he actually really cares about...).
I don't know who's done this already, and as always no pressure and tyt! Gonna tag @honourandsteel, @pinkyjulien, @chevvy-yates (aber echt kein Stress! xD), @imaginarycyberpunk2023 (would be so curious about both Vinnie and Macha here!!), @breezypunk, @timaeusterrored (curious about Vax in particular, but anyone goes if you wanna do this :o), @genocidalfetus, aaaaand everyone else who I'm forgetting now! Consider yourself tagged <3

i feel like out of all scepter 4, the ones most likely to give yata the "you better treat him right" talk about fushimi are awashima and akiyama
I was thinking shouldn’t Munakata be added in here but he probably gets to do the ‘what are your intentions’ talk instead (and then he has to go prepare the PowerPoint presentation for the sex talk he’s going to be giving Fushimi so there’s no time to give Yata the ‘you better treat him right’ talk). I feel like Awashima would be a little kinder about it, like she’s firm that she only has Fushimi’s best interests at heart and she’s not going to threaten Yata or anything but she’s still very much looking out for her subordinate too. I imagine her giving Yata the talk at Bar Homra, like she stops by for a drink and sees Yata there. Awashima knows that Yata and Fushimi have started dating and she’s wanted to speak with him, Kusanagi helpfully gets out of the way so Awashima can talk with him. Afterward Yata is slightly incoherent and Kusanagi’s afraid that Awashima really frightened him, Awashima’s confused because she tried to be very gentle about it and then Kusanagi realizes Awashima was in her casual clothes and Yata probably didn’t hear a word she said because he was too busy being terrified by breasts. 
Akiyama is a bit more on the ‘if you break his heart we’ll kill you’ end but in a very polite manner. Actually I could sorta see him good cop bad cop-ing it with either Benzai or Hidaka, the other one gets to warn Yata not to break Fushimi’s heart again this time and then Akiyama intervenes, apologizes, and asks Yata to come have some nice soothing tea. Yata’s glad that at least one member of S4 isn’t plotting his death, admitting that it is kinda nice knowing that Saruhiko has people who care about him and that he understands why everyone’s protective. Akiyama says Fushimi is very important to them and Yata’s like he’s important to me too, I don’t ever want to lose him again. They have a very nice talk with Yata baring all his emotions and when they’re done Yata thinks it was nice to talk to someone who’s not knee-jerk disliking him. Akiyama just calmly says he’s glad that Yata cares so much about Fushimi because should Yata fail to treat Fushimi right Akiyama may have to get slightly impolite with him, giving Yata the most terrifying gentle smile ever.

It would be great to be in love with a super popular character because there's tons of merch I could buy but... I only get attracted to underrated characters it seems (also super popular characters would be too much for me I think)

So yesterday my partner and I went to Target because we still have snow and spring is a Lie™️
We found this:
Tumblr media
What made us buy it though, was the promise of 11 unique character mini figures, of which included Ashoka. (There’s also a ton of little battle droids and some trade federation ships, the like circle kind.)
I wasn’t expecting much, but they are actually very detailed despite how small they are!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
(Mace and Yoda are out of frame lol.)
And the cards! There’s loads of well known clones, like Cody, Rex, and Fives, but tons of lesser known clones!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
And look! Hondo! Clone Force 99! They are special ally cards with unique properties! (Echo has his own card dressed in 501st gear.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The game is this: You pick a difficulty and an enemy, and build the board accordingly. We fought against Ventress, who runs around the board so much we lost the first time against her!
The game can get a bit emotional though; at one point my partner had Fives and Echo in his hand, and had to discard one because he took damage. So he discarded Echo. Just like the show 🥲 Besides any emotional conflict you may suffer while playing, it’s a lot of fun!
I was worried it’d be too big and complex to understand, but after our first game we got the hang of it really quick. The instruction pamphlet is clear and in-depth. Any questions we had that weren’t directly addressed in the instructions we figured out from the cards we drew. (I know that sounds odd but it makes sense in relation to the gameplay.)
As for length, our second game was around two hours? Not too long compared to some other board games out there.
Honestly, This is the game for clone lovers.

Tumblr media
@countlessrealities sent; Had he been in his right mind, Rick would have been thankful to know the cabin this well by now. Between his blurred vision and his unstable steps, he would have gotten lost and hurt himself by now, if he hadn't. Not that it would have mattered. Nothing did in that moment. A soft grunt left his throat as he bumped into yet another piece of furniture...or had it been a wall?...but he didn't stop his tracks nor slow down his steps. Perhaps pain was what he needed to remain tethered to reality, even if he wasn't sure that he wanted to be. What was absolutely clear to him, though, was that he did deserve it. All the discomfort, the distress, the sorrow, the pain, the agony. There could be no good things for him, not when he has the blood of his most loved one on his hands. His stomach churned at the thought and the mercenary had to steady himself by grabbing the edge of...something wooden. He couldn't tell, everything was out of focus and the night was darker than ever. If he had prodded the piece of furniture around, he could have probably recognised it, but he couldn't be bothered to do that. Not that night and not when his final destination was finally in sight. The warm, orange glow of the fire, emanating from a doorway and sipping through the shadows of the night. Rick muttered something under his breath, but the words sounded incomprehensible even to his own ears, so he chose to give up understanding his own thoughts and advanced forward, towards the light. "G-Goddammit," was the first thing that left his lips as he stepped into the room, or better, as he tripped on his own feet when he tried to cross the doorway. Thankfully the bottle of liquor he was holding was almost empty, or some of its contents would have ended up on the floor for sure. He would have hated having to deal with being bitched at for that. With that in mind, he decided that the most sensible thing was to drain what was left of the alcohol, setting the bottle down on the first horizontal surface he found before planting himself right in front of his undead housemate. "Y-Y-You know what? F-Fuck it. Fuck it all. You...You win," he stated in a tone that should have sounded determined, but the effect was ruined by how much he was slurring. "H-Have at...it. Drink...get your feel. I-I don't give a shit." And he emphatically gestured at his neck, just in case his words hadn't been clear enough. [[ Mercenary Rick for Vampire Rick 😈 Hell yeah, angst 😎 ]]
Tumblr media
The night was meant to be peaceful. For once, Rick didn't feel the emptiness of another day passing and another one soon approaching. Though, the sting of loneliness always was there. Something that would never leave him. Which was something more than he can say for anything else in his life.
With a sip of the fermented blood, drops of clots coating his tongue, he watched as the fire crackled. His thoughts went still for a moment. As he watched the embers dance and sway, the body of the last person he drank from melted and twisted. Becoming ash before his very eyes.
What a peaceful night it was.
Tumblr media
Blue eyes turned violet underneath the diminished lighting of the living room. Slowly blinking at his drunken housemate. Who seemed to be going on some sort of tangent. He wasn't sure why, but he could tell something was wrong.
If it were any other moment, he wouldn't have done anything. He would have just watched to see what happened. However, that offer. It was enough to intrigue him. In the most enticing way.
From the couch, he rose up onto his feet. He stepped a little forward. Quickly glancing down at the offered up neck and then to that face that resembled his own in the literal sense.
He could easily have taken it now. It was there for him, but he couldn't. Not now. This wasn't a good time. For either of them. Besides, he wasn't a savage. He wouldn't take advantage of a situation.
No matter how much he wanted it.
"M-Maybe we should get you to bed," He placed fragile, cold hands onto those shoulders. "Y-You're drunk and I don't want you passing out on the floor, that'll be uncomfortable for you and a pain for me to have to carry you."
If anything, he would feel bad for just leaving the guy there. And he didn't want to be accused of not being a helpful housemate. Not by any means.

For shopping trips, what’s your favorite place to shop or favorite thing to shop for? What do you hate about shopping or where do you hate shopping
Munday Asks!
Pardon my French, but... I fucking hate shopping. I despise it with every fiber of my being. Even before I got more anxious in public spaces, I hated it! Clothes shopping? The literal worst. Hell will be me stuck clothes shopping in a store where nothing fits.
But that's kinda part of it - trying on clothes is hot work. The little rooms you're stuffed in to try things on just hold that heat in, and you're putting things on, taking them off, putting them on, taking them off. I end up hot and sweaty and frustrated and then walk out with what, one pair of jeans and a couple shirts?? For like 45 minutes of pulling tight pants on and off repeatedly?? Fuck that.
Now you tack on how shitty the general populous is, and all the screaming children, the misbehaving children, the people who won't wear masks to prevent the spread of a deadly disease, the Karens I have to watch abuse people just like me... shopping is not an enjoyable experience for me. PLUS I have to spend money at the end, ugh (I'm finally in a place where I'm above the poverty line! But most of my life I haven't been... so it sucked even more to be broke and have to clothes shop.)
So... online shopping is easier, for the most part - as long as brands' measurements match what they tell you. I actually have to take several things to the mall this week to go get one size larger because their measurements I used... ended up being wrong, and the things I bought were all too small. Except I followed their measurement guide... /sigh.
Anywho, the only kind of shopping I think I actually like, is when I'm shopping for new enamel pins for my collection, on Etsy! :D

So, when I’m obsessed with a new muse, sometimes I get the inspo to build their home in the sims. So, if interested, here is Klaus and his Mama’s home if she’d gotten to keep and raise him! Klaus is around 15-17 in my head and they rent the house.
