Woke up trying to be productive today but my brain is like "no, we will only think about raider!joel today <3". So that's how my day is going.
Could we maybe get a nsfw alphabet with raider!joel (or literally any/all of them 'cause I'm obsessed)? Or maybe some similar hcs?
Thank you for being that into raider!Joel! 🤍 I Included the few I did elsewhere. . .you asked first but the other one was easier lol. Did these pretty quick, might expand later. NSFW 18+ Misc
A = Aftercare - Will say you did good, help you get dressed. Calls you sweet pea / baby. These twisted moments of affection, combined with your orgasm hormones, bond you further to him. Messed up.
B = Body part - Loves to parade his raging erection.
C = Cum - Won't warn you. Typical load is 7-10 mL in 7-8 spurts. Has a vasectomy. May come on you or in you.
D = Dirty secret - IDK if he has any shame that would lend itself to having secrets. Maybe the fact that he was a father. He's buried his old life way down deep.
E = Experience - Expert and very smooth operator.
F = Favorite position - Gets off on making you choose. Otherwise, depends on the setting and situation. Does he need to show you off/possess you? Does he need to dominate you?
G = Goofy - He has sick ways of amusing himself and having fun. Like making someone jack off for their life. The first time he fucked you he made a depraved joke right after it. Very dark sense of humor.
H = Hair - Ungroomed, mostly black.
I = Intimacy - Not romantic or intimate but will praise you. And his possessiveness (ex: holding you tight at night, protecting you) could be mistaken for intimacy. It's not that he puts it on fakely - he's kinda treating you like a kitten.
J = Jack off - Before he met you, if he didn't find anyone worth fucking on a raid, he might have jacked off then come on someone.
K = Kink - Major exhibitionist. Had a good time cucking Jack, might try it again sometime. Likes how you look tied up (for your own good). Dacryphilia.
L = Location - Dirty mattress since day 1. But anywhere. May get off on making you choose this too.
M = Motivation - His own dominance turns him on. Including when you're vulnerable/pitiful.
N = No - Not a good guy.
O = Oral - He's good at it even if he's not trying to be (like erasing someone's touch). And yeah he does like his cock sucked, might fuck your face. Ultimate dominance.
P = Pace - He's concerned more with power than pace. Moderate pace but adjusts to whatever suits him in the moment.
Q = Quickie - Any time, anywhere
R = Risk - He's a walking risk. Idk if it would even occur to him whether something might be risky. He's so self-assured.
S = Stamina - Very high stamina.
T = Toys - Not unless you count restraints/blindfold. This is post-outbreak.
U = Unfair - Doesn't want you to come if you haven't been a good girl.
V = Volume - Moderate by default but as loud as he needs to be (depending on the setting) if he's showing his dominance or possessing you. Sometimes quiet just for BDE effect like when he fucked you in the van.
W = Wild card - He's like sugarcoated poison. He calls you pet names, praises you, but he's just vile and depraved. Has a gentle touch but also manhandles you and gets rough. And he'll get turned on at the most offensive times.
X = X-ray - 20 cm (8”). Proportional girth. Middle is slightly thicker. Kind of duo-toned, pink and tanner pink, tip is pink. Grower. Balls on the larger side. Relatively veiny.
Y = Yearning - Very high. He fucked you three times within a few hours the day he took you.
Z = Zzz - Falls asleep very quickly if he wants to.
-

hello new mutual navi <3 what are your thoughts on tgcf <3 <3 <3 <3 <3
Hiiii new mutual Star <3 It's nice to hear from you, even though Hua is a menace and is terrorizing us <3 <3 I'll have you know I was at orchestra rehearsal and was unable to defend myself from their vicious attack, this was all very rude of them lol
But yeah tgcf omg.... I have so many thoughts about it tbh. For reference, I'm currently 6 volumes in (7 is in my possession, just waiting on my roommate to finish it first. If I read past him he'll get sad) and have watched all of the donghua so far and it's like. There are few things that I have felt more like the Target Audience for. My roommate clocked me for this, so this entire thing is his fault and now I've read 6 entire not-insubstantial novels in half a year.
To get the obvious part out of the way, I adore hualian, and out of all of my ships I think they're the closest I've ever gotten to loving both characters in it equally. Like in xiaoven I have a bias for Venti and in xingyun I have a bias for Chongyun, but with hualian I really and truly struggle to pick a favorite. If I had to choose, Xie Lian would probably win out just barely over Hua Cheng, but probably only because we're in his head for the books and thus get to experience his silly thoughts and awful trauma firsthand. However, they are rightfully a set, do not separate in my mind.
I do have a favorite character outside of the main pairing though and that character is Shi Qingxuan and I love her so so so so much it's not even funny. My roommate didn't predict this even though Qingxuan and Venti are so incredibly same guy, it's like. Of course I, renowned Venti enjoyer amongst my compatriots, was going to love the character who's the master of the wind, is a bit silly goofy, enjoys their drink, and also has a cool Gender going on. I have, however, been cursed (blessed) by my roommate's takes about her that don't seem very fandom mainstream, so I am just going to be content rotating her in my brain endlessly. She is in the microwave. Also, it's been an absolute treat watching her in s2 of the donghua, she is everything to me.
The last thing I'll add for my bare minimum thoughts about this series is that I do actually like it for very similar reasons that I like Genshin Impact. In Genshin, I've always been very fond of the immortal characters because I love the way that the writers at mhy explore the humanity of inhuman characters. The Gods and Dragons and Adepti and God-made Puppets and otherwise in Genshin aren't human, but the struggles that they face are incredibly human, whether living like and alongside humanity is one of their goals or not.
Tgcf, with its humans (exceptional humans, but still humans) that ascend to godhood, is much the same to me. Most of the Upper Court officials are completely detached from humanity much of the time, but their struggles and their vices are completely and totally human. Xie Lian is the most interesting of them all to me, since he's used his godhood to live the human life that he was never allowed when he was actually human, and I could go on an entire rant about that but I'll spare you the details. Every character in the series is so interesting in the way that their human problems have been left to grow and fester over the course of the centuries, and it's both awful and enthralling to watch.
oops that was so long my head is very full of thoughts. Thank you for the ask, even though it was kind of an arranged playdate lol I appreciate the chance to ramble <3
#navi answers#stardust-make-a-wish#Also if my roommate is reading this don't laugh at me#Which is basically an invitation to laugh at me so rip#My brainrot over this series is crippling please send help

Time to start Maximum for Trigun Book Club!
Archive
Trigun Volume 1: Covers + 1-3, 3 Detailed Thoughts, 4, 4 DT, 5-6, 5-6 + DT, 6 DT, 7-8, 9-10
Trigun Volume 2: Covers + Extras, 1, 1 Supplemental Research, 2-4, 5-6, 7-8
Stream-of-consciousness thoughts for TriMax Vol. 1, Chapters 1-2 below. (More detailed thoughts will be their own posts.)
TriMax Volume 1 Covers
Kuroneko on the chapter index gives me serotonin.
Vash finally finds a lamp with a genie in it and all he gets is punched. He seriously has the worst luck.
Wolfwook looks VERY possessive over that cross of his....
LOL, switched to the sex doll. Of course.
Chapter 1: Hero Reborn
First Knives is reborn, now Vash will be reborn?
Yeah... kinda hard to forget someone literally shot the moon when there's a giant crater on it now....
Vash with dark hair has made his premiere.
Hmm. Needs more floaty cloth bits.
Well, someone's having a bad day. I know I wouldn't want to end up tied up and tossed in a fountain....
LOL, they shout for the sheriff and the next character we see is Wolfwood. He's not a sherriff!
You gotta know a place is welcoming when you walk into a saloon and everyone immediately pulls a gun on you. I mean, that's just a normal day in Texas or Arizona, right?
Oof. RIP bus.
I mean, I realize Fifth Moon was traumatic and all, but somehow I doubt Vash would be filling someone with "twice his weight in lead."
I guess the person dumped in the fountain was actually the sheriff. Nightow could have shown the guy's badge or something to give us an indication of that....
Poor Vash. He doesn't deserve NEARLY that many knives in his picture.
Everyone has to ask about the cross. Wolfwood rarely actually answers. Deflection and misdirection is better.
LOL, Lina's face here...
Oh, man. WW's face in literally the next panel after Ericks's entrance. He knows exactly who he's looking at.
Vash Ericks, I know you try to look for non-combative solutions, but female-bodied folk really don't have a lot of options when people get handsy if we want them to decide not to push their luck beyond just being handsy.
Ah, see, this is why he thinks she overreacted. Because now a lot more people are in danger.
Heheheheheheh, WW, Lina, and Vash are all in such a close clump here.
Aaaand now "Ericks" has fully noticed Wolfwood.
Who the heck is this evil hamster of a human being?
All I'm saying, buddy, is that her footpring miiiiiight just be an improvement.
Gods, WW is so intent in this situation. Just looking at everything and listening to everything.
Dude, who STOLE VASH'S JACKET?!?! Also, those sunglasses jut feel wrong.
Oh, Ericks. So gentle....
Yeah, pretty sure actual Vash the Stampede wouldn't stoop to humiliating people as part of a power play.
Ericks, though. He's like, "Cool, a bargain where people live at the end!"
I wonder how much of Ericks telling Lina to cover her eyes is because he doesn't want her to see his scars.
WW wasn't really with the group long enough to see Vash's scars before, but this really clears things up for the audience. And you can practically hear the gears grinding in WW's head as he observes this scene.
Dude. This imposter even copied his gay little earing. Now that's commitment.
Opening fire on a naked man? Rude.
*sigh* All of that for nothing 'cause Lina's still caught.
AGAIN?! How often does this guy get shot!?
WW barely knows Vash and he's already like, "I WILL CLOCK ANYONE WHO SPEAKS SLANDER AGAINST HIS NAME."
What? He has super-healing? I mean, I guess that makes sense.
People really need to stop barreling their way into the infirmary....
Sheryl has a point. Things gotta get done. If the young folk won't help, then this old lame woman's gonna have to do it.
LOL, Wolfwood waking up Ericks will never not be one of my favorite scenes.
Awwwww, Wolfwood! Don't remind him about Fifth Moon! He thinks about it every time he sees that moon, I'm sure. It's NOT a pleasant memory in any way, shape or form, and he hates the legends around him!
Ugh, someone give this man a hug....
Cruel, indeed. The way he looks when he picks up that gun. There are so many emotions going on here. Loss, resignation, familiarity, sadness. Seriously. Where are the hugs for this man??
Wolfwood, always the pragmatist. He knows this isn't a great path, and how unfair it is for him to drag Vash back to it. But he also knows it's the path forward.
Heh. Yeah, just the two of them. For Vash to exhibit this amount of trust in WW suggests he's at least suspected WW's true nature for a while.
PUNISHER REVEAL!!!
Annnnnd Vash's first thought on seeing the giant machine gun is, of course, "Please, no death."
This panel of them heading into the fight together just fills me with so much joy.
Fake Vash is in a bit of a pickle, isn't he? Looks like he knows it, too.
Wolfwood reacting to Fake Vash demanding actual Vash say his name is beautiful. He looks like he's gonna die of laughter there in the dirt.
Heh. And with that last gunshot, Vash reclaims who he is.
And even after that reclaiming, he gets a heartfelt, genuine, and warm hug from a young girl who has only really known him as her friend and adopted family member, Ericks. <3
Chapter 2: Lina
"Something freaky is going on here." Yes. You're dealing with Vash the Stampede and Nicholas D. Wolfwood. Even one of those should be enough to cause serious alarm.
SHOES OFF THE BED. Geez. Barbarian....
Ugh, I love his expression here.
I'm sorry, I can't get over Wolfwood's weird duck face in this panel.
This is a very interesting take on the Lady and the Tramp spaghetti dinner scene. That poor sausage....
Aww, you can see where his hair's gone all dark underneath now that he has it tied back.
Well, that's one way to get Vash's attention. He doesn't have as much chill when it comes to his brother. And understandably so.
Uhhhhhh, what's up with that spiky weird shadow guy?
TBH, Vash has good reason to be suspicious of anyone who knows too much about Knives. Knives's games aren't about humans. They're about Knives and Vash. Humans are just pawns and casualties.
I love how this 12-year-old girl is able to cow a bunch of whiny, scared men with just her presence. I love how angry she gets on Vash's behalf.
"If he and his followers sniff me out..." HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA no comment. Vash just got really freaking lucky with exactly who's sniffing him out.
The comedy of this panel is great. Granny's all like, "Oh, no.... You're gonna end up beaten up in a ditch somewhere...." Meanwhile, her granddaughter has already begun just wailing on Vash. Without even dropping the groceries.
Ugh, just... having someone take care of him for a bit. It's a small and much-needed kindness. But that's how it often is with small kindnesses.
Wolfwood: "That brat (affectionate)"
LOL, Vash gets head-pats. GOOD.
Wait, Evil Hamster Man is back??
What the heck is even happening in this panel? Is this a second guy? Is this a growth on Evil Hamster Man's back? I don't know. We already had a guy with a LITERAL GUN for legs, so either wouldn't exactly surprise me. Wolfwood's face sums up my feelings perfectly.
Ohhh, Vash isn't having any of this guy's shit.
WTF, he just KICKED the round out of the sky?!
Vash isn't really prone to showing off just to show off. I'm guessing he's doing this to make Lina and Granny feel a bit better about how competent he is.
Even Wolfwood, who's seen Vash's weird before, seems a bit shocked.
Also, LOL, Wolfwood frog face.
Literally still can't tell if the second gunman is an actual dude or just some weird Evil Hamster Man growth.
Oh, there we go. He seems to be a separate entity, after all.
LOL, Wolfwood, calling them like he sees them. (Thank you, @trigun-manga-overhaul, for keeping the swearing. It makes it that much more funny.)
And now Evil Hamster Man is given a choice: a chance at redemption, or having to deal with an angry Stampede. Let's hope he chooses wisely.
Well, Granny's feeling better about the situation. Lina seems more... resigned.
There's something so lovely about the hair-trimming scene. It's one last bit of domestic comfort with his little found family before he heads off to war.
I genuinely believe Wolfwood here. He has a good heart, even when he tries to hide it.
*sigh* And as Lina cuts away at his hair, we just drown in their shared memories. The vast majority of it is simple things. Family things. Quiet moments. But they meant the world to Lina. And they probably meant the world to Vash, too.
I have thoughts about Lina burying herself in the cloth from Vash's haircut.
This chapter ends beautifully and makes me want to cry.

I’m feeling dumb today lol how would Marrow use his tail in combat exactly???
Oh I don't actually have a good answer for that lol. I meant it more in a "The heroes' faunus traits as a whole are underused in combat" as opposed to "A dog tail, incapable of gripping like a monkey tail, specifically needs to be used somehow." But maybe Marrow needs his tail for balance, much like a dog would. (What if Neon fell in her fight not because of a bit of rubble, but because her tail was hurt?). Maybe it's a way of helping to control his body temperature (and having a furred appendage is particularly useful in the Atlas climate. Does the army look to specifically recruit faunus with those kinds of biological advantages?) Maybe it's a form of communication beyond wagging it as a gag. Imagine Marrow smiling and laughing because everything's just fine... but his teammates notice the position of his tail and realize that whoever he's talking to isn't to be trusted. But, you know, stuff like that requires worldbuilding the faunus with more detail and crafting an Ace Ops team that are allowed to be seen as competent, trusted teammates.
Or, far more easily, RT might have the tail be mostly aesthetic, but other dog traits are beneficial (or a hindrance) to huntsmen. Can Marrow run faster than most of his non-semblance boosted peers? Is his hearing better? Sense of smell? Does he possess any strength or agility beyond what's granted by aura? It's really less about having to use what we've already got and more about the initial designs failing to consider the whole animal. Which in the heroes' case is, as said, largely because RT just wants the cute aesthetic. Why does Blake only get cute ears instead of vicious, useful claws? Why does Marrow only get the cute tail instead of a knack for undercover work due to superb hearing? Why did the fandom need to go through a big debate in Volume 7 when Tyrian attacked because the whole frame job hinges on no one seeing him, but we thought that certain faunus could see in the dark? Most of the villains have faunus traits that are intimidatingly useful in a combat show, whereas most of the heroes' are just... there. Hell, RWBY could have even gone the route of a 'useful' tail being a source of envy for some. I sure do wish I could wield my tail like you do yours, Sun. That would be damn nice as a fellow fighter. Mine just ensures I don't fall flat on my face :/

Tag Game
Tagged by @triassictriserratops (original post here) <3 The word "favourite" had me questioning everything I knew but (at last) here's mine, belated!
Favourite painter: I love museums, my answer to the superpower question is usually teleportation because I would happily spend all of my afternoons in like, The Met or the Lourve. But, weirdly enough, no one particular painter comes to mind... Erm, Bob Ross?
Favourite writer: At the risk of sounding like a pretentious English major, I'm gonna say Shakespeare. It's the boundless troves of meaning and magic in his texts. What I love, perhaps even more, is the immeasurable volume of art his work has inspired — from She's the Man (2006) to Ran (1985) to Moby-Dick.
Favourite band: Queen. My dad was a HUGE fan of 70s rock (Queen, Deep Purple, Guns N' Roses, Scorpions, Aerosmith) so that was what I grew up with. Lol my teacher was very confused when I, at age 7, told her my fav song was 'Another One Bites the Dust'.
Favourite meal and drink: Bread and iced water. Sounds slightly psychopathic but think about bread in it's many and varied forms! Then think about all the other yummy things you could put on or into bread!
Favourite outfit aesthetic: Bold colours. Simple designs. Lots of jewellery. My body looks quite different from how it did a few years ago (unintentional weight loss), so I've been building a whole new wardrobe and gradually figuring out what I like.
Favourite singer: Taeyeon 태연. My Korean isn't great but that means nothing because her voice has a way of piercing straight through my heart and deep into my soul. Someone once said she sings like "a woman who has been divorced seven times" and like, YES.
Favourite item I own: My laptop. A basic answer but it's what I'm typing this on and it's one of the few things that's truly completely mine and it keeps me company a lot (and sane, ngl).
Favourite possession: A stuffed animal I've had since I was a child — a little doggy, because I've always wanted one but my parents said no. I used to be quite embarrassed/ afraid of being laughed at but the lovely solreefs once said:
“oh I’m too old for stuffed animals” skill issue. sorry you can’t appreciate little creatures made to hang out with you, I on the other hand am full of joyous whimsy and therefore vastly superior.
I love that. Now I'm not only unabashed in my whimsy, my little stuffed animal has become a special sort of... gauge? Comfortability indicator? Like, I knew my ex wasn't the one when I felt this deep reluctance to show him it *wince*
Favourite perfume: SW19 Noon — Feel the noon of Wimbledon Park, with the scent of cold water under the cool shade of a tree and the scent of iris flowers in full bloom in the sun. It's divine.
If perchance you see this, please consider yourself tagged! I'm too horrifically shy I fear

a short recap/analysis of 'the pale princess and the six pygmies'
i've been re-reading the in-game books and i'd like to remind you of / introduce you to the wonderful anomaly that is 'the pale princess and the six pygmies'!
BACKGROUND
it's the book that an abyss mage is trying to steal during lisa's quest (which is not optional!), claiming it held an important secret relevant to the abyss order; at first, everyone was kinda confused by it: why are they looking for a/that specific fairytale? yes, it could be real, but what's so special about it? WELL, after this most recent (3.3) archon quest we know why - fairytales can survive irminsul memory erasure!! so the story in this book is highly likely to be one of those parables like the one nahida tells
THE CONTENTS OF THE BOOK
the first (and only available) volume provides a character description: the Night Mother (with no heart and no mouth, sin incarnate) who rules over the Land of Night and the Pale Princess who rules over the Moonlight Forest (where pale, blonde, blue-eyed people lived)
the previews for the other volumes introduce the other characters:
the Light Prince and the Six Pygmies. the former teams up with the Pale Princess to "*save* the Moonlight Forest". the pair then meets the six pygmies. however, the subsequent volumes insinuate that the pygmies are the antagonists/traitors - vol 5 describes the pygmies' plot as "sinister", and vol 6 describes their plot as "nefarious". this is a far cry from snow white and the 7 dwarves which the title seems to parallel (the dwarves weren't generally evil)
nevertheless, the "meeting" between the princess, prince and pygmies (vol. 4) seems to indicate an attempt at a truce. the last volume (vol 7) is just said to include the Night Mother's prophecy (which is most likely the main part relevant to the abyss order)
ANALYSES
NOW, there are so SO many analyses (and i'll cover some), but before I do I would like to point something out:
the fact that so many stories from vastly different periods could somehow fit this one story outline is VERY interesting, especially given the new context provided by the samsara quest, and the idea that "in this world, everything runs in a loop"
could this be the tale of the overall loop of teyvat?
anyways, i'll cover the following analyses in more or less detail:
the recent past
the current-ish events
the distant past
note on abbreviations: NM - the Night Mother, PP - the Pale Princess, LP - the Light Prince, 6P - the Six Pygmies, MF -the Moonlight Forest
NM - celestia*, PP - gold, 6P - archons, LP - ?albedo/dain/7th pygmy, MF - khaenriah
the Night Mother could be symbolizing Celestia. the best piece of evidence for this would be the quote "her punishments were always unexpected", which could be alluding to the celestial nails (at the same time, after a few of them you'd think they'd be more expected lol just don't make progress and try to know more than you should, and you should be good, ok? /j)
also! it has not been said that the night mother doesn't have eyes (unlike a mouth and a heart), which is interesting because visions have been described as "the heavens' eyes" by nahida
it is then possible that the moonlight forest could be Khaenri'ah. some evidence:
not ruled by the night mother (Khaenri'ah was said to be a goddless nation ruled by the people)
there was a "constant lack of sunlight" (Khaenri'ah was underground)
additionally, the following quote:
"The only thing she could not bear was the occasional ray of moonlight that made it through the clouds. The light that penetrated the walls of darkness always irritated her."
that light could represent human achievement / progress / arrogation, which we have repeatedly seen irks Celestia (most prominently in the case of Orobashi and Khaenri'ah)
this would make the Pale Princess someone like rhinedottir/gold, a.k.a. albedo's creator, as a master of the Art of Khemia and Alchemy (which has been shown to possess the ability to create life)
the Light Prince would then be someone who would be willing to help save Khaenriah, like dain or pierro or albedo (aether could also fit the description, especially after the most recent archon quest, but this wouldn't work for lumine so i'll discard it for the time being); alternatively it could be another Khaenrian (the king) or the 7th pygmy, but that means it would have to be either Venti or Zhongli (the only two male archons)
2. (the current-ish events) NM - ?; PP - 7th pygmy (tsaritsa?); LP - a khaenrian (pierro?); 6P - archons; MF - a nation (snezhnaya?)
the trouble here is the NM, bc Celestia does rule over the tsaritsa, so MF would be a part of the land of night, and i currently don't have an alternative
3. for the distant past it could be telling the story of the second who came and the seelie demise, and the seelies definitely match the description of the "light" inhabitants as well, so the LP could be the "master of the heavens" and the 6P would be the second who came (for some more "fall of the seelies" lore, please refer to this artifact set)
note that the analyses also heavily depend on how you answer the following questions:
are the Six Pygmies under the Night Mother's or the Pale Princess' juristiction, or are they independent entities? if so, which land are they native to?
is the light prince an inhabitant of the moonlight forest?
so, yeah, much to think about! (i also wanted to include a cross-referential analysis of the Night Mother/Pale Princess and Nottfriga/Madgalene from Hex & Hound, but dw we'll leave that for another day lol)
and that's a wrap!! that was a lot, and if you made it all the way here kudos to you, thanks for reading - here's a flower!
do let me know of any mistakes i made or any alternative analyses you enjoy!

Chapter 215: Fearsome Womb, Part 7
// SPOILER WARNING!!! DO NOT PROCEED IF YOU HAVE NOT READ THE CHAPTER YET.
/// Happy 5th anniversary to Jujutsu Kaisen! The 3rd JJK Character Popularity Poll is ongoing from March 3 to March 20, and everyone in Japan and/or with tickets are able to cast their votes here!
–
Opening words: “Sukuna and Itadori face off. The one approaching is…!”
Aaaaa, beautiful lead color page! 😍 This flying cursed spirit suddenly reminds me of the one that both Nanako and Mimiko travelled on back in Volume 0. Also Suguru's flying manta ray cursed spirit in HI arc, when he rescued Riko :')
》 Meguna/Sukumi: “Nonetheless, a job half-done [will] cause problems.”
Here, Sukuna said, 「やはり何事にも仕上げは必要だな」 (yahari nanigoto ni mo shiage wa hitsuyō da na), which means as translated above. Official translations was weird, so I think it might have been a copy-paste mistake.
》 Yuuji: “This guy... won't die even if you kill him.”
"Even if you kill him" is the accurate translation.
(Left panel)
》 Yuuji: “You... are really boring.”
This one's easy to miss but FYI, this phrase is most likely a callback to chapter 11 (see right panel)! Here, Yuuji uses the same words Sukuna had used on him when he was inside Sukuna's innate domain — 「オマエはつまらんな」 (omae wa... tsumaran na). In this instance, however, Yuuji added in, "really" — 「オマエは本当につまらんな」 (omae wa... hontōni tsumaran na).
(Right panel)
》 Sukuna: “You... are boring.”
Just a note that in this panel in chapter 11, Sukuna was belittling Yuuji and seeing him as inferior to Megumi Fushiguro.
Just wanted to explain that here, Maki (I'm assuming this is her dialogue) is basically meaning that it's weird seeing how good "Megumi" is at fistfights. It sorta implies that Megumi wasn't that good at hand-to-hand combat in her pov, but since right now he's possessed by Sukuna, "Megumi" is much better at it. In addition, the "Megumi's face" isn't a wrong translation but you can also say, "It's weird to see him good at fistfights with (using) Megumi's body."
》 Maki: “Even if he won't die, does that mean he can heal the wound [inflicted] from the "Split Soul Katana" using Reverse Cursed Technique..?”
Officials didn't include the "using RCT" part, which needed to be said.
》 Maki: “Yuuji... At any rate, our goal is to capture that thing even if it means killing (it), right?”
捕まえる (tsukamaeru) means to catch, arrest, grab, capture, or seize. Not stop. And FYI, Maki referred to Meguna/Sukumi as "that," or like Kenjaku once labelled Yuuji - "that thing".
Just wanna say that "Maximum Output" isn't a new type of CT by Uraume; 'cause I saw some people going crazy over it calling it a new Uraume CT. (I bet they're speedreaders lulz.) In this instance, Uraume basically exerts the highest (aka max.) output into their "Frost Calm" CT. Reminder that Gojo also used Maximum Output before, back in Shibuya... if anybody forgets.
》 Meguna/Sukumi: “Spectacular view! Spectacular view!”
Sukuna praised this view and said, 「絶景.. 絶景..」 (zekkei.. zekkei..), which is a flowery Japanese term that means an unsurpassably beautiful scenery. I just chose spectacular because it's another word for "extremely beautiful", so... yall can choose whatever you like I guess. It can be "cool," it can also be "awesome." [I just had a pop quiz on this kanji a week ago so it's still fresh in my memory LMAO.]
(Right panel)
》 Meguna/Sukumi: “It doesn't matter whatever you do with that brat, I'm already done with him.”
(Left panel)
》 Meguna/Sukumi: “But it was the right choice to focus your cursed energy on that woman.”
Sukuna said 「偏らせた」 (katayora seta) which means biased, leaned, prejudiced. I believe in this context, it just means that Uraume had focused their cursed energy on Maki.
》 Meguna/Sukumi: “Let's complete this body.”
Official translation is kinda alright. Meanwhile, what I've offered is just the literal translation and it sounds weird, lol, but it just means that the body is still incomplete - so they gotta do their stuff to achieve the desired, final form.
》 Meguna/Sukumi: “Get the "bath" ready.”
Yes, "bath" was in quotation marks. The raws were 「"浴"の用意をしろ」 (“yoku” no yōi o shiro). Now why am I imagining the "bath" to be with blood instead of water!
》 Meguna/Sukumi: “Just like always... [You're] meticulous.”
FYI, Sukuna used an idiom in this dialogue. He said 「相変わらず洋い所に手が届く」 (aikawarazu yō kayui tokoro ni te ga todoku), which literally translates to: "Just like always, your hand reaches the itchy areas/places."
The idiom here is 「洋い所に手が届く」 (kayui tokoro ni te ga todoku), and it means "to be extremely thorough" or "to focus on the little details." Simply put, this expression can be used for someone who is "meticulous"; one who is able to pay attention to every single detail, no matter how tiny.
Additionally, in the service industry, this phrase implies that one must have precise knowledge of the needs of the person that they want to serve. So the phrase can also be used when one wants to be "attentive to someone's every need/wish."
》 Meguna/Sukumi: “Look!! There was [someone/something]... From Harima!!”
The text in the JP raws was very vague; it was 「ほらいただろ!!! あの播磨の!」 (Hora itadaro! ! ! Ano Harima no!) which translates as above. Meanwhile, TCB translated this particular dialogue to "Told you!! He's like that guy from Harima!!"
In my opinion, I am leaning more to the official Viz translation because I looked up the "Harima statue" on Google and these particular statues (see below) bear a semblance with Yuuji's facial expression in the last page. And I think the statues actually make the most sense, especially with what Uraume said next about Yuuji's mouth, as compared to if they were talking about a Heian-era person whom only the two of them know. I don't think Gege would do us dirty like that for not getting the joke.
— “Never Mind Mind” (2013), by Midori Harima
Closing words: “Even if you're being mocked, never forget that rage.”
—
Comments: As always, I never claimed to be a professional translator. My JP understanding is still amateurish but I hope yall will allow me to share my own insights on certain dialogues just so we can learn and understand each other’s interpretations, and also to kindly correct me wherever I had been wrong. Thank you!
#jjk 215#jjk manga spoilers#gege akutami#m/translations#jujutsu kaisen#meguna#sukumi#sukuna possesses fushiguro#uraume to the rescue!

20 Questions Game for Fic Writers!
I feel like I've done this before, but like...definitely before a MASSIVE amount of my fics were released post-fest, so thanks to the amazing @ssmtskw tagging me, I'm gonna do it all over again!
1. How many works do you have on ao3?
52 total!
2. What’s your total ao3 word count?
128,450 words!
3. What fandoms do you write for?
Currently, only RWRB. In the past, I've written some for Once Upon a Time.
4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?
Ghosts
Volume Control
Retaliation
Do we still have forever?
Modification to the map of you
5. Do you respond to comments?
Always! I live by comments, so I will always show my appreciation for every single one.
6. What’s the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?
I suffer from this syndrome that only allows me to write happy endings, so the angstiest ending I've written still brings with it some hope. It's Darkest before the dawn.
7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?
I think one of my newer fics, No fear, no fences, nobody - no reins has a pretty lovely ending. Lots of hope for a pretty blissful future.
8. Do you get hate on fics?
Not yet. Still waiting on my first hate comment. I'd love for it to never come, but you know how fandom can be.
9. Do you write smut? If so what kind?
Before FirstPrince, I wrote a lot of fade to black. Now, I dive right into wherever the story and the characters lead. The fic listed in answer #7 is probably the smuttiest I've ventured so far.
10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve ever written?
I haven't yet but I'd be open to!
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen?
Nope.
12. Have you ever had a fic translated?
Nope, not yet.
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?
Not so far, but a couple are in the works!
14. What’s your all-time favorite ship?
FirstPrince.
15. What’s a WIP you want to finish, but doubt you ever will?
I once had a super neat idea for a Captain Swan kid fic, but I don't see myself ever finishing that one.
16. What are your writing strengths?
Henry's POV apparently haha. I'm just gonna spend the rest of my existence writing everything from Henry's point of view, and I'll be fine.
But honestly, as much as I never realized it, I think the dialogue is one of my major strengths. It took a friend @oneofthewednesdays complimenting me on my dialogue as well as hearing a podfic of one of my works to convince me that the dialogue I write feels pretty genuine and authentic.
17. What are your writing weaknesses?
Writing anything except one shots lol. I'm working on something now that might become my first real multichapter fic that isn't cowritten, and I'm really excited, but also terrified that I won't finish it.
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic?
I've done this! And I've received a ton of positive feedback from native speakers that I did it justice, which made me feel so good.
19. First fandom you ever wrote for?
Pirates of the Caribbean.
20. Favorite fic you’ve ever written?
Oh gosh. It's like asking me to choose my favorite child. But as many fics as I've written in the months since joining the RWRB fandom and as immensely proud of them as I am, my heart keeps coming back to quite possibly the best line I've ever written.
“Fuck,” is all that he can say, but even that tastes of Alex, of top shelf whiskey and the cinnamon he always adds to his coffee. Alex had spoken the word into Henry’s mouth on countless occasions, so he was all-too-familiar with the way it slipped off of his tongue so smoothly, as if the letters themselves were forged together just for him by some foul-mouthed god who knew the damage such a word might wreak in the possession of someone as fearless as Alexander Claremont-Diaz.
And this line lives in a little post lake house fic, the second fic I ever published in the RWRB fandom, called What If I Do?
Uncertain who's already done this, so I'm gonna leave this as an open tag for anyone who sees it and wants to share their incredible writing background with the world!

Okay I've never watched the Yu-Gi-Oh anime or played it or read the manga before, but I did hear how different the original manga was from the anime so I checked it out
I knew it was the 4Kids thing where they retconned every mention of death with "shadow realm," but it wasn't even about the card game originally it was just about a kid being possessed by an evil ghost from ancient Egypt who liked to play games that either kills you or permanently traumatizes you lol
That explains why the anime everyone knows about skips the first 7 volumes of the manga, from before the card game became the main point, cause literally every time something happens the characters are like "We are about to fucking DIE and be KILLED"

what makes you think the writers want deancas? not trying to be an asshole, i'm just genuinely curious as to why you think that. i know berens' episodes are pretty heavy with subtext so i can see why you'd say that he wants it, but i'm not so sure about the rest of the writers/dabb. it seems like meghan isn't a huge fan either, given her "they twisted it so fast" tweet :/ of course she's a very new writer (think she's only writing one ep this season?) but still
OKAY this is a great question, welcome to my dissertation.
I’m going to address the end of your question first. Meghan is actually DeanCas positive, she has been for quite a long time. She actually, a few years back, posted a picture of her reading a literal book about Destiel and captioned it “writing reading” or something like that.
This whole thing just comes out of a boiling over of tensions because of how nasty fandom twitter can be. Like I said here, I think this has just gotten blown out of proportion, they shouldn’t have posted all this randomly disparaging stuff, but also like...can you blame them? The fandom is a lot, we always have been, and they’re probably also under a gag order not to talk about the finale, and are annoyed that people keep asking.
So nah, Meg is not anti Destiel.
To the first part!! So let’s take a look at the show runners since Cas has been around.
Seasons 4 and 5: Kripke
Seasons 6 and 7: Gamble
Seasons 8-11ish: Carver
Seasons 11ish-15: Dabb
So starting with Kripke. Okay, yes, I will be the first to admit that we have some pretty incredible Destiel moments in these seasons, but it’s less directly written into the plot and much more from Misha and Jensen’s uhhhh ~chemistry~. The only times it was directly written into the script was when the episode was handled by someone like Edlund (“On The Head Of A Pin,” “The End,” “My Bloody Valentine”). And you have to remember, if in season 5, there are moments here and there where you’re like huh that’s suspiciously romantic dialogue, remember that Cas took Anna’s place. Anna was supposed to be endgame for Dean, but due to a myriad of issues and Misha’s general greatness, Anna was replaced with Cas.
Onto 6 and 7. Hmmm. Gamble. 6 and 7 are my two least favorite seasons and that’s no secret, and that’s not only due to the plain old weird shit in the overall storyline, but also that homegirl killed off Cas in s7 and then Bobby like four episodes later. (Also it ALWAYS rubbed me the wrong way they couldn’t have Baby in that season lol). We still had some great DeanCas moments, but again, it wasn’t really written into the overall arc (until they had to change the end of season 7 because of tanking ratings and bring Misha back lol, anyone remember the fact that Dean kept Cas’ jacket and would randomly dream of him? Yeah.). But we still had those moments, those distinctly romantic moments, probably the best example in these two seasons is from Edlund again, specifically “The Man Who Would be King,” I wrote a little about that here.
We move onto Carver, who gave us, at this point, the most overt DeanCas season with season 8 (season gr8 is a better name imo), and this is the first time Dean and Cas’ relationship is directly written as an arc of the season. I mean, you have everything in Purgatory, Dean “seeing” Cas everywhere, the fact that he felt so guilty that Cas stayed in Purgatory that he manipulated his own memories to think that he was the one that failed Cas, because he couldn’t comprehend that Cas would want to leave him, and let’s not forget Dean snapping Cas out of Naomi’s hold on him in “Goodbye Stranger.” It was a very obvious shift, not enough to alert the general audience, but more than enough for most of us in fandom.
It’s also important to note that this is when Andrew stopped co writing with Loflin and started writing his own episodes (”Hunter Heroici” anyone?) I like Loflin fine, but Dabb was able to stretch his legs a little bit more once he stopped co-writing, and we also began to see some DeanCas themes in his solo episodes.
In any case, them and their issues being a big part of the seasons continued with Carver, and Berens entered the scene, his first episode (”Heaven Can’t Wait”) is one of my favorites, with human Cas and the fanfiction gap and Dean and Cas just generally being awkward and funny and sweet. This is Bobo’s FIRST episode, remember that. He comes right out of the gate with it.
Also in Season 9, this is when Dean takes the Mark of Cain, and the Cas/Colette mirror is born, so obviously, Dean and Cas are the fabric of the season once again. This is also the season where Metatron says Cas is “in love with humanity,” and then immediately refers to Dean as Humanity so uhhhh yeah.
Onto season 10, Dabb and Berens continue with their greatness (I could write pages on the DeanCas date in “The Things We Left Behind” alone). And then we have one of the best scenes in the entire show in “The Prisoner” where the Cas/Colette mirror continues and Dean, driven by grief and pain and rage and the Mark, still doesn’t kill Cas. He still can’t kill Cas.
Season 11 is important because it takes choice away from both Cas and Dean, and shows us, as the audience, how much losing each other takes out of them. We saw in season 10 how much losing Dean takes from Cas, but what about Cas losing Dean? Dean loses his choice with his connection to Amara this season, and loses even more when Lucifer reveals he’s been possessing Cas, and plays on Dean’s connection to Cas like a mockery. It’s also worth noting that, similarly to season 8, Dean breaks out of the connection with Amara when he’s worried about Cas, and that’s something that even SHE is surprised by.
But then season 12, the beginning to the Renaissance. This is when we get the writer’s that become important for what Dean and Cas are today, and, truly, why I believe they want canon Destiel as much as we do.
This is the first season with Dabb’s writers: Davy Perez, Meredith Glynn, Steve Yockey, and of course Bobo all come in with their incredible talents and gave us episode after episode of good content. “Lily Sunder Has Some Regrets” is probably my favorite, probably the best example of what I’m saying. An episode where Dean is called out by an enemy directly, told to “roll the dice” on Cas’ life. And Dean won’t, it’s not even really a hesitation. And this comes from a character that has known Dean for ten seconds. I also wrote more in depth about this episode here. There are also some.....distinctly domestic details we get this season, specifically in “The Future” (written by Berens and Glynn) with the mixtape. The most tropey of tropes mixtape. Yeah, I’ll just leave that one here.
And then season 12 ends with Cas’ death, but also with the parallel between Sam and Dean with Jess and Cas. Sam literally has to drag Dean away from Cas, just like Dean had to drag Sam out of his burning apartment in the pilot. The episode drives it home in every way that it can: Dean is the one left kneeling by Cas’ body, while Sam goes to find out what is upstairs. Dean is the one who stares at the sky, finally broken. This isn’t a random thing, this is Dean’s whole arc, it’s the entirety of the beginning of 13. Dean’s pain, his anguish, his anger.
Season 13 starts with them burning Cas, with Dean, who has begged God to bring him back, who has split his knuckles punching a door, standing, staring at Cas’ pyre with brokenness on his face.
I mean.....
Anyway, season 13 is where it gets interesting (well, I think all of this is interesting but I’m a writer nerd so). So Cas comes back from the Empty in “Advanced Thanatology” written by Steve Yockey, and then a wombo combo of “Tombstone” by Davy Perez next (”Brokebacknatural” as the PR said at the time). Listen. This is the part that SPN crossed a line that they couldn’t come back from. With Cas being Dean’s “big win,” the fact that Dean and Cas watch movies together, “I told you, he’s an angry sleeper. Like a bear.” Talked about it here.
This is where, in my opinion, the network stepped in, but the damage was already done. They had already established that Cas was Dean’s big win, that Dean’s poor coping was not due to Mary’s disappearance, but solely due to Cas, and that Dean and Cas have more married energy than anyone else. The network had nixed blatant canon at this point, and they writing room had been pushing the boundaries of what the network would allow.
After these episodes, we see a marked drop off of DeanCas heavy scenes. They’re still there, still a part of the fabric of the season, but not as...obvious as it had been in early season 13.
And this continued through season 14, we’re back to scraps of Destiel scenes here and there, but to me it always felt like there was something bubbling under the surface, something distinctly unsaid in the themes of the season, even after the walk back of obvious “Dean and Cas are in love” scenes.
And then we get to season 15, which, y’all know I talk about all the time. What’s important here is that Bobo and Glynn are both executive producers, calling more of the shots than ever before. Additionally, it’s important to note that, though they only co write occasionally, Glynn and Berens refer to each other as “work husband” and “work wife.” Each episode has just turned up the volume, and, not for the first time, but certainly the most obvious, Dean and Cas ARE the season. Sure, they’re trying to beat God, they’re trying to finally find peace, defeat the final big bad, but really? This season has been about Dean, and Dean’s relationship to Cas.
And not only do we have obvious and clear Destiel in nearly every episode, but we have episodes like “Last Call” which canonize bi!Dean (wrote about that here).
And, maybe most importantly so far, we have “The Rupture,” the breakup, and “The Trap,” Dean’s confession (both written by Berens). And here’s the thing. These episodes feel connected, but also feel like they’re missing something. Beren’s last episode is 15x18, “The Truth.” We’ve all spec’ed about what could happen in this episode, and I think *I* know what it’s leading to. But for it to be leading to that, it means that the network has to have approved what we’ve all been waiting for years for.
Who got this change to happen? Who got the network to change their minds? It wasn’t us. It was them. I am fully convinced that Dabb and Berens quite literally put their careers on the line for Dean and Cas. They believe in them, they’ve shown that from the beginning, but the only thing standing in the way was the network, never allowing them to take the final step.
So, to answer your question: I think the writers want canon DeanCas because they’ve already shown us that they do. Take a look at their episodes, at Dabb’s, at Beren’s, at Glynn’s, at Perez’s, at Yockey’s. They’ve been telling us what’s going on with Dean and Cas for years.
Sure, I’m not in their heads, I guess I don’t know for *sure* that this has been their thought process, but if we put it all together, from the marked shift when Dabb fully took over in s12, to the change right after “Tombstone,” to the new shift, the blatantly romantic shift in season 15, what else is there?
I’ve said for a long time that we, the SPN fandom, are beyond lucky to have the writer’s that we do. They’re all going to go on to have prolific careers and we were lucky to get them at the end of our little show. I give them a lot of credit for what we have in the show today.
Just remember, they’ve been telling us in all of s15 who Chuck is. He says he’s the writer, right? But a writer who doesn’t have control of his characters? A writer who wants to do the same ending over and over because it “works”? That doesn’t sound like a writer, it sounds like a network exec.
They’ve been showing us what they want for years, and the way s15 is going? I think they may have convinced the network to let us have it.

Hii!! I love your writings and i was wondering, could you do an a-z porco version?? You can choose whether you prefer nsfw or not, i dont mind at all!! Just wanna see some content about mu baby🥺 hope you have a great day/week/month/year and please be safe💖
hi! i’m gonna do a separate fluff alphabet for him bc i love him so <3 i did this in a modern (college if u squint) au bc that’s generally what i think about when i write so i hope this is ok! hope u enjoy, i’m sorry this took so long! stay safe and have a lovely day ❤️
warnings: extremely nsfw lol, mild cursing
word count: 1491
a-z nsfw alphabet for porco galliard
nsfw under the cut!
A = Aftercare (What they’re like after sex)
I feel like Porco is a PRO at aftercare. I don’t know why, it’s just a hunch. I feel like he gives lots of shoulder kisses and runs his fingers through your hair, whispering to you just how much he loves you. Probably really enjoys taking baths with you! And MASSAGES! Especially if you guys just had a rather rough session (which I feel like is very often. IDK dude just the vibes I get from him)
B = Body Part (Their favorite body part of theirs and also their partners)
He loves his hair, and he ESPECIALLY loves when you pull it. That’s one way to make him cum in his pants in .00005 seconds. On you I’d have to say your nose (: I feel like he loves giving you nose kisses and also putting you in positions (like the mating press) where your noses are practically pressing together when you’re having sex.
C = Cum (Anything to do with cum, basically)
I feel like his cum is kinda salty, but nothing too bad. It definitely doesn’t taste bad.
Porco doesn’t seem like the type to be too picky about where he cums, but I do think that his favorite and preferred place to cum on you is your face. It makes pride swell up inside of him that he’s the only person who gets to see you like this. It’s also kinda just his possessiveness showing?? IDK mannnnn but it’s hot as fuck
D = Dirty Secret (Pretty self-explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs)
Before you started dating he accidentally called one of his flings your name. He just brushed it off like it didn’t happen and made the person he slept with feel like they were hearing things LMFAO
E = Experience (How experienced are they? Do they know what they’re doing?)
I feel like he’s pretty experienced and knows what he’s doing, but mostly with people that he wasn’t involved with for more than a night. I don’t see Porco as someone who easily enters relationships, so most of his experience comes from clumsy and/or drunken one-night stands with random people he met at frat parties LMFAOOO
F = Favorite Position (This goes without saying)
Mating press. He loves being fully in control and seeing you struggle to gain any sort of leverage on him. Also, the eye contact and the deep ass angles he can hit; he brushes against your sweet spot with every languid stroke. Need I say more?
G = Goofy (Are they more serious in the moment? Are they humorous? etc.)
Definitely not. Porco sees sex as serious even if he’s not in love with you- I feel like if you laughed it would just piss him off LOL
H = Hair (How well-groomed are they? Does the carpet match the drapes? etc.)
I mean I don’t think he actively shaves so he’s probably got a bit of hair down there, but it’s nothing too wild. I feel like he keeps it soft lol and it’s definitely not a bush. The hair is a few shades darker than the hair on his head. He one hundred percent keeps clean, tho, so that’s not something you’ll have to worry about
I = Intimacy (How are they during the moment? The romantic aspect.)
Most times sex is a way for Porco to release his frustrations and anger. He doesn’t really see it as a loving act since most of his past experiences weren’t related to that in the slightest, but every now and then he gets a strong urge to worship you in every way possible because he wants you to know just what you do to and for him.
J = Jack off (Masturbation Headcanon)
Probably twice a week. Unlike a lot of the other AOT boys, I feel like Porco masturbates rather frequently. I feel like a lot of it stems from boredom, but some of it is (like most other things) related to frustration. It helps him zen out a bit
K = Kink (One or more of their kinks)
Complete domination, choking, bondage, & spit play. I don’t think I need to say anything else on this topic, you can see what I’m getting at, yeah?
L = Location (Favorite places to do the do)
He’s honestly fine with wherever, just as long as the price of getting caught isn’t too great. He enjoys the risk and adrenaline rush that comes with doing it in public places (for example in the bathroom at a school football game or at a restaurant while you’re on a date). But if his or your reputation was on the line, he wouldn’t even think twice about it. His preferred place (if he had to pick) would be the floor ;)
M = Motivation (What turns them on, gets them going)
Tbh just about anything LOL I really see him as a guy with a high sex drive, so if he sees your shirt ride up a little too far and catches a glimpse of the undersides of your boobs? BAM. Boner. You bend over in front of him? Boner. Obviously he can keep this in check most of the time, but sometimes? He just doesn’t want to.
N = No (Something they wouldn’t do, turn offs)
Pegging. Sorry guys, he just…wouldn’t.
O = Oral (preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc.)
He is SOOOO good at giving oral, however, he definitely prefers receiving over giving. It’s probably one of the only aspects in the bedroom where he ever hands you the reins. He may push your head down sometimes, though, he’s one of those guys. But he just enjoys seeing you struggle to take it. Polishes his ego
P = Pace (Are they fast and rough? Slow and sensual? etc.)
He tends to be pretty fast and rough. He doesn’t really have the patience to go slowly LOL I feel like he’d get bored-
Q = Quickie (Their opinions on quickies, how often, etc.)
He loves quickies. Especially when it could make one of you late (preferably you, he loves making you all flustered when someone asks what your reason for being late is). Like I mentioned previously, doing things slowly is definitely not something that Porco is very well versed in, so I don’t even really see you guys having long sessions very often. Quickies are just the norm for you guys. (You should be grateful for this, the longer sessions take DAYS to recover from. Praying for u)
R = Risk (Are they game to experiment? Do they take risks? etc.)
It really just depends. You have to talk to him about it first, but I will say that he is more likely to say no than he is to agree, especially if his dominance is in question. He doesn’t like to give you control often
S = Stamina (How many rounds can they go for? How long do they last?)
He can last a good while if he wants to, but he doesn’t normally. Your sessions tend to last 10-15 minutes on average (not including foreplay), but when he really wants to he can last 30-40 mins.
T = Toys (Do they own toys? Do they use them? On a partner or themselves?)
Probably a few vibrators lol. Definitely wants to buy a sex swing smh. Probably has a whip. All of these are for you, the thought of using a toy on himself makes him a bit uncomfortable.
U = Unfair (How much they like to tease)
I feel like Porco likes to tease on occasion, but something tells me that often times he’s way too impatient to bother. When Porco gets in the mood, he wants nothing more than to just bend you over and fuck the shit out of you right then and there. Anything that prevents him from doing so brings him out of the mood a little.
V = Volume (How loud they are, what sounds they make, etc.)
I don’t think he moans perse… He definitely lets out long sighs and grunts and other animalistic noises, but there’s not much moaning. I will say that he is very very verbal, and his dirty talk is TOP TIER. That’s it. That’s all.
W = Wild Card (A random headcanon for the character)
His biggest fantasy is to fuck you while someone else is sleeping in the room-
X = X-ray (Let’s see what’s going on under those clothes)
Probably a good 6.5-7 in. And he THICC. You will definitely feel the burn at first with him
Y = Yearning (How high is their sex drive?)
HIGH HIGH HIGH HIGH
Z = Zzz (How quickly they fall asleep afterward)
Not too quickly. He likes to make sure you’re okay first, and if you’re not feeling the best he’ll lay awake with you and talk to you until you’re asleep.

Chastity Tips by Candi Jane
These tips are coming from the perspective of a sissy(me😀), these things still help without the sissy element.
I have been hearing sissys keep saying that you want to do long term chastity, but are too weak. I am hearing about how you want to feel helplessly desperate and horny. But as you get too horny and before you reach helplessly desperate you grab the key, unlock your little clitty, and jerk off. Then you have to start the process all over. Ideally you would have a keyholder, someone that forces you to keep honest, but most of us are not fortunate enough to have one. So here are some things that may help. Notice how I always use the plural for keys? Chastity devices come with more than one key, so make sure you are keeping them all together😁
Mail your keys to yourself:
Pretty self explanatory, take a self-addressed envelope, put a stamp on it, seal your keys in the envelope and mail it away. This is a great one to get the keys completely out of your possession and away from you for a period of time.
Though I recommend at least using your real address so the keys get back to you 😜
Depending on how the mail runs in your area this could be a 2-5 day event, for the cost of an envelope and a forever stamp. If you mail it on Saturday night after pickup, the mail will not get picked up until as early as Monday, so that is an extra 36 hours. There are also holidays to consider in which the mail doesn’t run, so if you mailed your keys after pickup on Saturday of Labor Day weekend, the earliest the mail will pick up your keys will be Tuesday. By that point you will have already had almost 3 days of chastity, add that to how well the mail is in your area, you may end up in a week in chastity! That is not even mentioning mailing during the holiday season when the mail is at its busiest, at that point you may be hoping that the keys did not get lost in the mail 😬 Which is one downside to consider when mailing. How well do you trust your postal service? Sometimes things do get lost in the mail 🤷♀️
Freezing your keys:
This one does require you to have a fridge/freezer that you can use to freeze your keys. This one is a bit difficult to do if you share your fridge/freezer. Unlike mailing the keys to yourself, the keys will be with you, so there does require a little bit more restraint, but this can be a lot of fun. I had a lot of fun experimenting with this one, a proper sissy school girl doing proper sissy science 😚 So first and foremost don’t do what I did first and use a glass bottle. I first tried putting the keys in an old glass liquor bottle. That was a horrible idea
DO NOT USE A GLASS CONTAINER
As I learned, as water freezes it freezes from the outside in and expands which makes the frozen water less dense than the liquid water which is why ice floats. I also learned that it is a really strong force and will break the glass, as I learned when the bottle neck broke in my hand and crashed to the floor 😨 I was not injured😅
So next I used a plastic gallon jug, which has a couple of pluses. First and foremost it will not break into harmful pieces(at worst crack open), and second a gallon is more than twice as large of volume as the normal 1.75L that the large liquor bottle has (3.785 liters = 1 gallon) so it will take longer to defrost. Second mistake I made was dropping the keys in the bottom to freeze.
As everything melts from the outside in, this would be the first to defrost and makes the size of the container mostly obsolete. Solution: I tied the keys to a string, lowered it down until it was halfway in the container and taped the string to the jug.
Do not fill it to the top, remember water expands as it freezes so be sure to give it room. Freezing takes about 24 hours. I recommend checking in on it periodically, because ice freezes from the outside in and you will see your keys floating surrounded by its ice prison, and if needed you can add more water.
The first time I froze the keys in the gallon jug(keys at the bottom), I checked how long it took to defrost at 74F in the shade, and it took less than 8 hours. Those that are familiar with cooking meats, know that ideally you wouldn’t defrost at room temperature, but allow it to defrost in the refrigerator. After 24 hours of freezing I put the jug in the refrigerator. Following times are based on my fridge being set at the factory recommended coolness.
After a day the water on the outside has melted, so if my keys were at the bottom I would be able to pour them out at this point.
After 3 days the ice has defrosted enough in which I can now start to see the keys trapped in its frozen prison
Every day I see a bit more ice thawed, slowly and slowly seeing my keys becoming closer and closer to freedom
Finally after 7 days I see my keys floating freely in liquid water
Only one problem
The ice above is not thawed enough to let me pull the string out 😫 So I put it back in the fridge, and five hours later my keys were free!
From freezing to thawing was just over 8 days of chastity.
So the numbers I have for a gallon jug of water is: freezing - 1 day, thawing at 74F in shade ~ 8 hours, thawing in the fridge ~ 173 hours.
During this time you can start focusing on doing important things. At the longest it is 8 days, and that is plenty of time to accomplish things. Many sissys have maid fantasies, well use that time to clean your home, not just a little clean, but really deep clean your house(bonus if you have a uniform). Imagine your mistress/master will be inspecting it later. Ask yourself, “Would I want to serve someone that accepts this kind of work?” or “If I paid a couple hundred dollars for cleaning service, would I be satisfied?” whichever🙃 As you are locked up and cannot jerk off, you can start practicing on your blowjob and anal skills. Use this time to learn to deep throat, or work towards that ever elusive sissygasm. Set goals at the beginning of things that should be done by the time the keys are defrosted.
Because the keys take 8 hours to defrost at room temperature, certain tasks can equal x amount of time out of the fridge. Such as if you are practicing your deep throat skills, every time your nose touches the wall/floor equals five minutes out of the fridge. 8 hours would be roughly 100 times, or even for every second your nose to the wall/floor is five minutes. That gives over a minute and a half total of your throat being filled 😄 Cleaning your home can work in similar point systems too. Each chore is x amount of points, some may be more than others, as cleaning the bathroom takes a lot more than doing laundry(unless you are washing by hand). They don’t have to be sissy/sub tasks. You can make some of them for your better wellbeing. Such as, maybe you are someone that needs some motivation to get in shape. Have each mile jogged/walked/run can equal half an hour. Or can go simple and for the amount of time you spent working out is the amount of time spent out of the fridge. The plus side is you can work on your sissy figure and improve your regular quality of life 😁 These goals can really be for anything that you may need to work better on yourself, like reading more(yes I am talking to you), learn/practice a new language, learn/practice an instrument, even things that will help improve your career(insert your own examples lol). These are only a few examples. But make some tasks/goal(what needs to be accomplished) and rules(the rewards of completing a task and punishment for failing). Simple punishment is it goes back in the freezer. Remember to make sure your tasks/goals are realistic, and don’t try to tackle too many things at once. So often people get this huge motivation and think of all of these things they are going to do, but then when things aren’t working out the way they planned they give up. Schedules get made and when we can’t maintain them we give up. That is how those 10 dollar gyms are successful, their pay plan only works when the majority rarely/never show up. So if you set a really high goal that is unrealistic, say from never exploring anal to wanting to take Captain Ameica’s cock(see Chris Even’s cock) in that time period, maybe unrealstic. Or spending an hour a day working on your blowjob skills. Or the working out goal, you plan to run 2 miles every day, or every other day. That sounds great in theory, but if we fail to meet it we have a tendency to give up. You start out good for a day or two, then on day three you make an excuse on why you cannot and by day 5 you feel your goal is too far out of reach and give up. If that is the case, then adjust your goal and the tasks along with it, the first one may have been too ambitious. So if your goal/task is too difficult, instead of giving up on it, adjust it. Maybe I should be a Sissy Life Coach lol 🙃 Make the goals realistic, try to better yourself as either a sissy or even in your regular life. These are just some of my ideas on this.
I say this as doing this by yourself, but this is something that can be done in a keyholder relationship. And the keyholder can devise the tasks that serve them best.
Freewill:
Now freezing does take some freewill, there are plenty of ways to cheat, and get around things. It isn’t instant, but still freewill is required. Freewill doesn’t require you to freeze or mail or anything. So this last tip I have is: try to get better than the last time. I say this over and over, but remember baby steps. I did not go from buying my first chastity to 60+ 24/7 consecutive days. It took time and practice. I went an hour, then maybe two hours. If I got too horny or it got too painful, I would take it off. The next time I would try to go longer. My first attempt to sleep in chastity I gave up not even halfway through the night, it became too uncomfortable. I worked my way from there, now I prefer to sleep in chastity. So each time try to get better than the last, and if you fail, unlock and jerk off, or if you complete the time and are rewarded with unlocking yourself, well that’s a perfect time to work on becoming a cum eater 😛(again baby steps). If you always lose the urge after, then try to push yourself to at least bring some of it to your face, after that push yourself to taste just a little, and then go from there until you are eating it all 🤤 It may take some months but keep working at it😀
Have fun and drink cum ❤❤❤

Michael Myers NSFW Alphabet
A = Aftercare (what they’re like after sex)
At first, he's pretty detached. He just up and leaves the second y'all are done to redress and start stabbing some people. But, after getting more comfortable with you, he'll be much softer. Cleaning you up after, putting your hair back in the bonnet that slipped off halfway through......even asking "You ok?"
B = Body part (their favorite body part of theirs and also their partner’s)
For him, his hands. They're rough, strong, and powerful. He's ended lives and disfigured bodies with those hands. He also loves the image of rubbing those hands down your body, gripping your neck, and squeezing on your curves...
Speaking of squeezing, on you, his favorite body part is that ass. I can see Michael as an ass man; first time he saw how big yours was he started drooling in his mask (the face he made wasn't that much better). The ripples it makes whenever he's hitting it from the back gets stuck in his mind for a while.
C = Cum (anything to do with cum, basically)
Possessive boy likes laying his claim. Mostly inside you cause it feels the best and he loves seeing it leak out afterwards. But he also like to cum on your ass sometimes. You could have swore you heard a camera go off one time...
D = Dirty secret (pretty self explanatory, a dirty secret of theirs)
He licks your dirty underwear, like fucking ice cream. Why tf he does, idk. Maybe it's the smell that entices him and also the fact that he likes tasting your essence. That boy been eating too many damn dogs...might be turning into one.
E = Experience (how experienced are they? do they know what they’re doing?)
Oh, none what so ever. Can't really have sex when you're under watch 24/7 at Smith's Grove. All he knows is from what he watches his victims do and whatever tv shows/movies he watches. He's a very quick learner though. Very attentive.
F = Favorite position (this goes without saying)
A variant version of reverse cowgirl. One of his legs is bent and the other is straight. You're ass is in perfect view while he pistons in and out of you. Your ass jiggling like crazy is addicting to him.
G = Goofy (are they more serious in the moment? are they humorous? etc.)
Michael and goofy don't really go together. You really don't want to know what he finds funny...
H = Hair (how well groomed are they? does the carpet match the drapes? etc.)
I believe that he was really well groomed in Smith's Grove and people tend to stick to routine, especially serial killers. So he's pretty well groomed.
I = Intimacy (how are they during the moment? the romantic aspect)
Romance is weird for Michael, since that implies there's a strong emotion behind each action. However, there is a rush of serotonin whenever he does some of those actions (mostly watching your reactions, which he really likes). So every once in a while, he'll do some random cute shit like say you're super pretty, you feel good, stroke your face, etc...
J = Jack off (masturbation headcanon)
I don't really see Michael actively masturbating, like at all. I feel like he would have so much control that he could just cum without actually touching himself. On some superpower shit.
K = Kink (one or more of their kinks)
M'am this man is the whole kink book lol but seriously he's down to try out new stuff. He'll let you know if he doesn't like it or not. Just to name a few: blood, choking, bondage, and domination.
L = Location (favorite places to do the do)
Whatever, wherever. He don't give a damn.
M = Motivation (what turns them on, gets them going)
Many things; you never know with this man. Could be from just watching you different stuff like working on a project or cooking. Flirting, especially when you say something a lil raunchy. Gets him ready immediately. Weirdly enough, he loves the different facial expression you make, even if it's super silly.
N = No (something they wouldn’t do, turn offs)
No family at all. Don't mention any family members at all. Also don't thirst over anyone else but him, even if it's a celebrity or character. Also, not into pregnancy. No babies.
O = Oral (preference in giving or receiving, skill, etc.)
I'd say Michael is pretty equal on both. He likes getting head and giving some too. He loves seeing your pretty lips wrapped around him and the feeling of your oh so expert blowjobs. But he also loves seeing your reaction when he's in between them legs. Moaning his name makes it all the while sweeter.
P = Pace (are they fast and rough? slow and sensual? etc.)
Rough as hell, but also can be slow at times. It's not really one or the other with him, he mixes it all up in one session. Maybe he starts slow, goes fast and rough for a bit, and then switches to sensual depending on the position and your reaction to it.
Q = Quickie (their opinions on quickies, how often, etc.)
A good quickie is appreciated every once in a while. He does have people to kill, and in an organized fashion. He'll fit you into the schedule though.
R = Risk (are they game to experiment? do they take risks? etc.)
Down for anything. His only deal breaker it that you won't be hurt. Yeah, he may nick you with his knife here and there. But he doesn't want to see you hurt at all.
S = Stamina (how many rounds can they go for? how long do they last?)
A whole machine. Can go rounds without cumming. But also can cum multiple times without too much of a cooldown period. You'll be dickmatized for sure. The record so far is 7 in one day.
T = Toys (do they own toys? do they use them? on a partner or themselves?)
Eh, he doesn't really care. If there are toys, he would rather used it on you to make you go crazy. Other than that, nah.
U = Unfair (how much they like to tease)
Like I said previously, he would use toys to make you go crazy. He loves teasing you; he knows you're at your wits end when you start mouthing at him, saying crazy shit.
V = Volume (how loud they are, what sounds they make, etc.)
Pretty silent, though a good bit of deep breathing. Most you'll get is some breathy sounding whimpers every once in a while. He may talk to get you to move a certain way, say your name, and say "mine".
W = Wild card (a random headcanon for the character)
So it's understood that he likes watching your every reaction right? And that he does it during sex? Well, sometimes he will grab your head and just stare at you, while tilting his head at the reactions he finds interesting. His favorite reactions (the ahegao-like facial expressions) make him actually drool. You felt it even drip on your chest. Strange.
X = X-ray (let’s see what’s going on under those clothes)
4 inches soft and around 8 inches hard. Has a nice girth on him. Grey sweatpants would look good on him.
Y = Yearning (how high is their sex drive?)
High to the motherfuckin’ sky, probably even to space lmao. He's in control of it; but he is ready to go anytime you bring your sexy ass over to him.
Z = Zzz (how quickly they fall asleep afterwards)
He watches you sleep, just admiring your features. Those cute eyelashes.....nice eyebrows....that button like nose with those cute and wide shaped nostrils......pretty lips. You're just pretty as hell. He'll fall asleep eventually.

A lot of people (when they're being generous) call Ironwood a fallen hero. I disagree with that, all nonsense in vol. 8 aside. He's arguably the protagonist for the first seven volumes going by which characters are trying the most to make things happen for the good side. Nothing the teens did had plot-related consequences until they confronted Ozpin in the snow. And even at the end of 7 he was still trying desperately to save people. This is more a fallen story. Do you think he's a fallen hero?
I think he’s a “fallen hero” only in the most technical sense. As in, Ironwood was a hero, now he’s not, but we’re lacking all the literary aspects that make a fallen hero recognizable as a character type. It’s sort of like looking at a glass orb (going with the memes here) and saying, “It’s a ball!” Yes, technically it is a round object when a ball is also a round object and in some circumstances we might indeed call this a ball… but if we’re thinking of “ball” as an object capable of being played with without immediately shattering—if we consider the purpose of this particular type of “ball”—then no, the glass orb is not a ball. Ironwood is only technically a fallen hero. Beyond some surface similarities, he’s not fulfilling a fallen hero’s expected purpose.
For me, part of that lack is the loss of faith. Something is meant to occur that turns the hero from their previously good alignment and sets them on the wrong path, usually a devastating loss (Anakin Skywalker), a newfound belief that bad deeds are the only way to achieve good ends (Count Dooku), or succumbing to the presumably evil nature the character was told they always possessed (Kylo Ren—though his status as a hero is arguable to begin with. I’m not delving into that here lol). The point is that Ironwood never actually turns. He’s on the correct path up until he randomly starts taking evil actions. As discussed, he’s been on the good side for seven volumes. The majority of the actions he took, while morally gray at times, were no better or worse than what our established heroes have done. (Which is the same problem we run into with Ozpin vs. the group: if lying makes you an antagonist because Lying is Bad, why isn’t Ruby one too?) He’s pit against an established villain and ‘gives up his humanity’ specifically in an effort to save everyone else—a classic heroic act. Then the end of Volume 7, while horrifying, was essentially a trolley problem, a situation with no good outcome, thereby ensuring that whatever decision is made—action or inaction—results in an “evil” result. This whole time, within the bounds of RWBY’s world, Ironwood was a hero who, like most others in the story, just had really shitty options. It's the circumstances that are the problem, not his attempts to navigate them.
And then he shoots Oscar.
Many fans pinpoint his “fall” during the shooting of the Councilman, but for me things went off the rails when Ironwood decided to murder a kid (and I’ve gone into how, based on everything he knew about Oscar at the time, he had no reason to think he’d survive that plunge). But the question is, why? We never see the turn, the explanation, for why the hero who just gave his arm for others is suddenly willing to murder an innocent kid (and all the fan headcanons don't change the fact that the explanation does not exist in the canon. Same with Mettle). If Ironwood had actually lost faith in his allies, he wouldn’t have clung so hard to Winter, to the Ace Ops, or spent the whole of Volume 8 trying to get Penny to see his side, ending with him putting a hand on “Penny’s” shoulder and complimenting her on coming back. There was no point where a loss had Ironwood give up on the world; no point where he had a, ‘Fine. You want a villain? I’ll be your villain’ moment and decided to burn it all because fuck trying to fix it. Trying to fix things is all he does, up through pointing his gun at Salem, it’s just that this characterization exists ALONGSIDE the version of Ironwood that shoots kids, murders political figures, and drops bombs, all with no real rhyme or reason to the villainy. As also discussed, none of these choices actually help him achieve anything. They’re stupid, nonsensical, unnecessary acts that exist purely to prove his evilness and once they’re done, Ironwood pops back to being the guy trying to take out the Big Bad. Like one of the heroes.
Looking back, parts of Volume 7 were setting up a Dooku type fall… but then RWBY failed to have Ironwood make the turn. If we wanted a Dooku situation, Ironwood should have turned on his allies, been manipulated into helping Salem instead, and focused all his attention on taking out the “real” enemy of RWBYJNORQ. AKA, something closer to Hazel’s story-line of, “I want a new world order/people who respect me and I’ve been convinced that Salem is the one who can provide that.” Instead, everyone turned on Ironwood long before Salem arrived. He’s the one trying to evacuate people and Relics while Ruby dithers over a perfect solution. He’s the one keeping Salem out of Atlas while RWB sit around in a mansion. He’s the one coming up with the bomb plan while YJR are concerned only with saving a single life and Ruby sends out a, “Someone else help us, please” message. The entire time, Ironwood is the only one actually fighting Salem, outside of the whale where the group is forced to encounter her, but never planned to. It’s really hard to paint this guy as a fallen hero when he’s the only one making attempts against the woman who is, undeniably, the villain of this situation. It’s like if Dooku was focused entirely on taking out the Chancellor, recognizing him as the threat, while Obi-wan and the other Jedi sit around in the temple, not even discussing possible ways to deal with him, just angry that Dooku has come up with a solution they don’t like. Dooku looks a little too much like the hero in this situation, even with a 'But killing the Chancellor would be wrong' message, so better have him murder some random innocents in the hallway to make everyone else look good in comparison. Ironwood is the guy focused entirely on solving the Salem problem while everyone else ignores her, colored by a, 'But leaving people behind would be wrong' message, so he does the occasional murder or torture threat so we remember that the real good guys are sitting around drinking tea. Inaction looks great when pit against a totally random bomb threat, yeah? Ironwood is no longer a good man by the time he dies, but his villainy is oddly separate from the rest of his characterization. He’s not a fallen hero, he’s the same flawed hero he’s been since Volume 2, it’s just now he randomly commits evil deeds because he’s not supposed to be a hero anymore. It… doesn’t really work.
And yeah, all of this is bound up in the fact that our heroes have no motivation. They have no reason to be in this fight. I have no problem with them slowly getting sucked into the war and eventually staying out of a generalized desire to help (that’s by no means a rare plot-line and, when done well, is the best: cough-LotR-cough), but it’s so weird how the story has crafted this young generation vs. old generation fight when the younger generation is not written to be better. Which is supposed to be the crucial difference! Ozpin, Qrow, Glynda, Ironwood, and maybe Theodore had as much of a handle on Salem as anyone has in over a thousand years and then when there was a (big) setback, the next generation swoops in with a, “This is our war now.” Except Ruby has never articulated why she wants to make a difference in this particular, very difficult way. The story has not set up that she is forced to be involved, even with Silver Eyes. No one else has a reason for being here other than, “Well, Ruby is here, so why not?” None of them have come up with better ideas than the grownups that weren’t—and this is crucial—rule breaking ‘solutions’ introduced because the plot needed them to win. And none of them have spent any of their free time trying to fix the problems they’re frustrated by, or forward the war efforts more generally.
Putting aside that it’s just boring to watch, I’m always shocked by the number of times the fandom has justified the group just sitting around: they don’t need to talk about Ozpin’s vision because the farm is stressful and scary, they don’t need to think about the war so long as they’re doing a little huntsmen work, Ren’s such a bore for insisting they train on their night off, they deserve time to recuperate in the mansion while everyone dies outside… The group never wants to lead this fight. Every time there’s a chance to plan ahead, come up with a solution, try to think about this war long-term, they go, “Nah. Let’s just sit around and chill until something forces us to get involved again.” We had a scene this Volume where Ruby literally threw up her hands and ran from the room the second they weren't able to fix things. Which yeah, paints characters like Ozpin and Ironwood as more heroic. Or at least far more level-headed and mature, the sort of characteristics you want in someone leading the world-wide war. They were, at all times, trying to do what they could to help the war effort and help Remnant, even if others didn’t like the ideas they come up with. At least it was something. And at this point fans will usually get angry on the characters’ behalf, talking about how they’re just traumatized kids, how can you expect so much of them? And that’s the point! If they can’t handle this kind of insane responsibility (the thing that was driving Ironwood to punch walls) then why are they in charge? Why are they the heroes? We can’t act like they’re the best for the job and then shrug when they don’t do anything, or simply do a bad job. If that's meant to be the step-up, we needed a situation that forced them into these roles. It sucks that a bunch of traumatized teens that keep messing everything up are the world's only hope, but that's just how it is. Wow, I feel bad for the war and for them because damn, they never asked for this. But Ruby did ask for this. Hell, she demanded it, taking that responsibility by force. So she's very much opened herself up to criticism.
Instead of giving us a story where traumatized kids are forced to save the world, or kids volunteer to save the world and are clearly doing their best under the circumstances, our situation is a group whose efforts only extend to the immediate crisis, whose idealism keeps them from making any sacrifices (even something as simple as sending Weiss to Atlas, or putting the Relic in the vault), and whose suspicion has led them to turn on eight allies since they found out the war was a thing—which wouldn’t be a problem if they weren’t preaching trust and rejecting others for their own suspicions. RWBY started out great, a classic story of the next generation rising up to fight the good fight, but RWBY forgot to take the crucial step of actually making the heroes better than those who came before them. Or even giving them the motivation and the drive to make a difference. For three Volumes now, RWBYJNOR have only helped to clean up the current mess, a mess they’ve usually helped to create. They haven’t done a thing to try and better Remnant in the future, which really colors choices like, "This Ironwood guy is the villain now. You know, the only one who cares that the Big Bad is trying to kill a city full of civilians."
They could have actually made Ironwood disillusioned with the world after everything he's been through, actually only caring about the rich and elite, choosing to use Mantle as bait for Salem so that the "better" half of Atlas can escape with plans to leave Remnant to burn while they prosper in the clouds... it would have been so easy to turn him into the fallen hero the fandom has painted him as. Instead, what RWBY gave us is far, far messier. And you don't even need overly long posts like this one to prove it. The core of Ironwood's characterization is a semblance that doesn't exist in the show. This is not a fall that was well thought out or well executed.
