cupid's chokehold.

pairing: jax x cupid!gn!reader

tags & tropes: fluff, shameless flirting, fell first/fell harder

summary: you were absolutely confused because of two things: one, you got transported to a random dimension and became a totally different person, gaining the title of a cupid, and two, you had fallen in love at first sight with the most sarcastic purple rabbit man ever. well, at least you didn't felt like complaining on the second part.

tell me, sunnie!!: AAAAAAAAAAAAAA... anyways, hiiiii:3 i got a new fandom added to my brain, injected it into my veins and now i am addicted. so, this funky little guy didn't actually catch my attention at first but then i watched some edits and was like "HMMMMMM i mean yeah sure" and then i decided to check tumblr, stumbled on a fic of him and went "OH. OH." yk?? anyways, i hope you guys enjoy this bc i wrote it instead of sleeping and i have to wake up early tomorrow el oh el!!1!1!1!1

warnings?: kissing, suggestive(?) i mean it's just neck biting but idk........

first of all, you don't know how the hell you are... here, nor why you've been stuck in this place for two weeks already.

it's a colorful world, saturated to the maximum amount possible. you know, the type to burn your eyes if you stare at a specific spot for too long. it also looked like some kind of fever dream, with all the toys scattered and the way different people? characters? looked like.

not like you can say much, you have heart shaped pupils and you're wearing something that looks like an ancient greece tunic. also, sandals. you have these big feathered white wings that are a pinkish hue at the tip of every single feather. you tried pulling one out to see if it was actually real, resulting in a yelp from your mouth. it kinda hurts.

and that reaction caused a chuckle to come from someone who has your eyes dedicated to just admiring them.

frankly speaking, if you went back and told your past self that by putting those weird vr headset glasses on you would be signing up to falling for a tall and lanky purple rabbit with a yellow smile, you would probably just chuckle and still do it, but with even more determination than before. eh, what can you say? you've always been attracted to the weirdest characters anyways.

but this... this was real, he was real and he was talking to other real weird animated people. ragatha rambled next to you about... honestly, you didn't even know, too busy watching from afar a certain rabbit. this was the start to possibly one of your most frustrating crushes ever.

"[name]? are you okay? you seem more distracted today?" she worriedly asked, putting her hand on your shoulder, "you shouldn't think too much about trying to find an exit if that's what you're thinking about, you might get abs-"

"huh? no, i wasn't thinking about that!" you quickly hurried to give an explanation, trying to dismiss that idea from her, but your eyes darted again to the overall wearing guy and she followed your gaze.

she slowly moved her head back at you after seeing what you were so... distracted about. a smirk broke in her face.

"oooh, little [nickname] has a cruuush?" ragatha teased you.

"wha- no- that's not-" before you could continue, your flushed cheeks got even more red as you saw him approaching. you immediately shut your mouth and just looked at the floor, trying to quickly hide your face

"sup', what are you two gossiping about today?" jax spoke in a mocking, sultry tone that had melting down a drain... not literally though.

"oh, nothing. you know, just the usual!" ragatha quickly tried to hide that topic from him, trying to distract or something. play it cool!

"uh-huh, and why is little cupid over here heating up like a preheated oven?" you almost choked on spit before looking at him with furrowed eyebrows and slightly flushed cheeks.

"none of your business, jax, don't bring your teasing and mocking over to [name]!"

"aww, why not?" jax dropped his hand on your shoulder, "say, little cupid, i heard doll face over here mentioning a crush, who do ya' have the hots for?"

your mind instantly went to answer "you" internally z meanwhile, your lips just answered in an almost quiet sound.

"i'm not telling you."

"huh, and why is that?" he leaned in close, and suddenly you felt absurdly claustrophobic.

he looks so... absurdly attractive with that smirk. you wish you could wipe it off of his face.

"because..." it doesn't take too long to come up with an excuse, you're an overthinker who is always prepared for this kind of situation, "you would mock me for it, and i don't feel like getting bullied by a purple beanpole."

"gasp, you wound me with your hateful words!" he dramatically posed, meanwhile ragatha chuckled in the background. "how can a cupid, made of pure love, be this mean?"

you just lightly punched him in the arm at that.

---

night time seemed like a blur to you in this world. sleep? never heard of that.

it's been a month already and your crush hasn't faltered. instead, it got bigger each day, but to be fair, it was impossible for it to not grow. jax decided that, for some reason, he liked teasing you a bit too much since he found out you might have a crush on someone.

playful flirting seemed to be his favorite to use on you, since you just tried your best to not show how it actually affected you. honestly, you felt like some kind of cliche teenager movie where you're about to write his name on a notebook with hearts all around it.

and that felt too cheesy, even for a cupid.

---

oh my stars, he wishes it's him.

you know, at first when you arrived at the digital circus, jax paid no mind to you. i mean, yeah, you were probably the cutest person in this digital purgatory, but he didn't think that he could fall for anyone in here, this isn't some weird sitcom episode. but it was starting to get difficult to not let him lose himself in a romantic trance when you were around.

he wonders if you used anything on him that could've possibly made him slowly fall for you, hard.

in the second week, he began noticing things about you. for example, you laughed at his jokes and sarcastic personality, got irritated for his pranks but never screamed at him, just shrugging it off like normally, you didn't even care when he stole something from your room.

it was mind breaking to just try and see what could get a reaction out of you towards him. until it was revealed that you had a crush on someone in that place.

jax isn't dumb, he already caught you looking at him from afar just to fastly change your gaze and get flustered, how your hands trembled when you were near him, heart eyes expanding when he talked to you. so, just to test if his theory was real, he decided to leave a subtle flirt for you. and that was checkmate.

he thought at first that it was weird, that maybe he could just play with you a little bit and entertain your little crush on him. but then, the spell turned against him. you flirted back once, and that made him feel awfully fuzzy minded. now, he was the one staring at you from afar sometimes.

that wasn't in his plans, falling for you even harder than you fell for him wasn't supposed to happen. yet, it did anyway.

and now the realization dawned on him that, at some point, he's going to have to either confess or simply hide that for forever, since that's the time they're gonna be stuck in the same dimension together. how fun, isn't it?

---

your feet took you outside of the tent, as everybody was now sleeping comfortably in their own rooms. well, at least you thought they were. stepping onto the grass and breathing in some fresh air, you looked up, waved at the sun and the moon, who smiled back at you contently. then you finally sat down and layed on the saturated green ground, looking up at the fake stars.

you sighed heavily, trying to distract your worried mind that screamed about wanting to get out and at the same time never wanting to leave. it was downright confusing, and left you with pent up energy that made your brain go 100/mph.

you heard footsteps behind you, looking up just to meet with a yellow smile and cartoonish eyes. you immediately gulped as his smirk grew.

"heyyy little cupid, what are you doing here so late?" he questioned you with a lower tone of voice before sitting down by your side. you immediately sat up too.

"just... thinking about some stuff." not losing any chance, you tried to start a conversation. "what about you?"

"meh, just bored and couldn't sleep." jax then looked at you in the eyes. "what could you possibly be thinking about?"

"ah, you know... just the usual!" you tried to quickly change topics, you didn't feel like traumadumping on anyone today nor did you feel like telling him that he's the reason you didn't abstract yet.

"and, does the usual involve your secret little crush?"

your breathe hitches, "why are you so curious about who i like?"

"i just am, it's interesting to see your reactions when i mention them." he leaned down, holding his head with his hand as he still stared at you. "why don't you tell me who it is? i'm starting to get the wrong idea that it's me since you refuse to speak about the mystery person to me."

you think you just felt your heart stop. your eyes go wide and you can feel the heat coursing through your body, blood rushing and flushing your cheeks. you know what? okay then, since there is no escape from this situation, might as well finish the night with a bang before you leave to sleep.

"that's... not the wrong idea at all." you confessed, watching as his eyes went wide in a millisecond.

"what." he spoke before sitting up and grabbing your shoulders. "you're not fucking with me, are ya?"

you shook your head while embarrassingly looking to the floor, feeling frustration pooling in your head.

"no, i'm not. i like you jax, i like your stupid pranks, your stupid jokes, your mischievous smile, your ey-" you were cut off by lips meeting with yours.

as your current situation settled in your mind, you got yourself comfortable and closes your eyes, lacing your arms around his neck and pulling him even closer before you two fell back again, you under him. your stomach was doing backflips, breaking down at the feeling of being reciprocated.

when you finally broke apart, your heart eyes were absurdly big, staring at him while you panted for air. he chuckled at your face, giving a big smile while himself was actually melting at finally having you in his arms. jax laid his head on between your neck and your shoulder. you petted his head, until you felt something.

he was biting your neck, leaving love bites and hickeys behind.

first of all, you didn't even knew if he could open his mouth, but apparently he could (?). you couldn't think much of it, too busy holding back an embarrassing whimper. you held his head and tried not to close your legs around his waist as he continued to bite.

he pulled back, looking at you with a smirk and raised eyebrows.

"well, look what a mess i've done, darlin'. how do ya' feel?"

you couldn't even answer, feeling absolutely overwhelmed by his hand on your waist, the knee resting between your legs and your mind slowly losing it's control. instead of an answer, you just pulled him down for another kiss.

yeah, you probably were enjoying that, but jax? ha! in his mind, he was melting down a drain, patting himself in the back for the idea of deciding to take a night walk and accidentally seeing you. he grinned into the french kiss, feeling absurdly high at the moment.

he wasn't sure how everyone would react to you finally being his, not that he cared about their opinion, but he thinks if would be funny to see their faces. he can't wait for it to happen, but now it's not time to think about that.

it's time for him to think on how to calm his rapidly beating heart that might give you the hint that he loves you way more than you love him.

tell me, sunnie!!: AAAAA i finished writing this only the next day, sorry if it's too short btw!! i know it missed a lot and should have more things but it was rlly rushed bc i want to write more of him <\33 but yeah, thank you for reading sunshine!!

g'morning it's time for more gay people!!!

Alenoah Week Day 4: Royalty AU/Vampires

[was GOING to be Stakes fanart but I forgor 😔]

used this one to play with colors! I know red is usually the color of choice for vampires/alejandro but the setting of the middle of a forest under a full moon just screams blue so who am I to argue. tried something new with shading too, using procreate's nebula pen(which adds funky colors) and I think it turned out really cool and helped the vibe of the whole thing!

anyway onto the boys. I like the thought that vampires in the cat world are just immortal smilodons(plus all the usual vampire abilities ofc), so I used that. and it's subtle but there's a lil hypnosis goin on because I'm me and I couldn’t help myself 🤭 noahs strong-willed(stubborn) though so it's only like half working on him, hense the light daze, but it's there. ignorable enough if it's not your thing but noticeable if it is, yk?

#nqh art #artists on tumblr #digital art #art #alenoahweek2024 #alenoah #total drama #td noah #td alejandro #alejandro burromuerto #vampire au #td cats #tf else do i tag #blue #? idk

cutie zuha who everyone thought was submissive and totally inexperienced, but one day when reader tested her limits, she showed her real self, absolutely destroying reader 🥴 becoming the mean hard dom mommy she really is 🤭

why does this sound familiar 🤨 .. anyways here it is anon (listening to newjeans while making this so I apologize if things sound funky)

Kazuha = Red Y/n = Pink (creds from that one fic I saw that had this color thing)

Everyone thinks Zuha is just a baby, not to mention her sweet innocent personality she would never hurt a soul. So you knew you had the sweetest girlfriend ever. When it came to sex she always had vanilla sex and always was gentle with you. Always reassuring you, you were safe with her.

Ugh but how much you hated it. You wanted to be degraded, humiliated and just something more rough than you usually get. Not complaining? Kind of? You just wanted something new.

You had a whole plan to be a brat, was risky, didn't know if it was gonna work, but you're trying it anyways. "Baby we have to go out, get ready now" You scoffed at her and just said "No I'm tired." Kazu gave you a confused look and just returned with a smile and said "Babe seriously we have to go now" She said while trying to pull you up.

"No Zuha I don't wanna."

"We have to. My family is expecting us baby."

You just scoffed again and made your way to the bathroom to get ready and you guys left to go to her parents house like you guys did almost every week.

After you guys got there you started acting like an immature kid again. Only laying in Zuha's bed not even spending time with her. You were surprised she kept up with it. But once it was time for dinner with her family you went out to eat with them.

"Here Y/n have some chicken!" Her mom said as she starts to pass you the plate. "No thank you." Kazuha looked at you weirdly giving you the 'wtf?' look. So she kicked your foot under the table because she knew how her mom felt about declining food.

"How about some Bulgogi?" Zuha kicked your feet again to make sure you actually accept it this time. "No I'm okay excuse me I'll use the bathroom real quick." You politely smiled and made your way to the bathroom.

"Mom I'll go check on her she doesn't seem well, okay?" Frustratingly, she stomped her way to the bathroom and just opened the door without knocking. You were just on your phone on the bathroom toilet.

"Y/n what the fuck is wrong with you today?! I tried to keep up with your bullshit but It's too much now!" This is the Kazuha you wanted.

"I don't know. I'm normal today what do you mean?".

"Shut the fuck up. Bend over."

"Excuse me?"

With that she bent you over herself and gave you a few spanks to your ass coloring it bright red, and leaving hand marks all over. Then she picked you up and put you on the bathroom counter, moving everything aside.

"Yeah you wanna act like that? Then act like it, but I'm putting you in your place princess." She took off those shorts of yours and started to spread your legs harshly. She smashed her lips against yours and started to finger you with her slender fingers in a fast pace.

You were trying so hard to not make a noise but there was yelps and cries when she started to hit your g-spot. You were gonna cum so fast but she stopped everything right when you were about to.

She edged you in that bathroom for the longest time ever and she finally stopped. She stopped everything and just left you in that bathroom saying, "Get cleaned up baby. I'll meet you at dinner again. Don't think this is over yet because it's not. Once we're home your going on the bed I don't wanna hear excuses." Fuck, you were left there all needy and you were still dripping like hell:(

I was thinking about how in the past I have tried to describe my writing process as a sort of weaving or braiding as I try to keep various plot threads woven in and not dropping any of them. But it never felt quite right because there is still a linear quality to both of those activities, and I so far from a linear writer.

But the other day I was doing a jigsaw puzzle and I was like, no, no, THIS is the metaphor for my writing process. Like, a giant jumble of stuff (vague ideas, snippets of dialogue, character beats, plot), all in a giant mess (possibly all from multiple projects all in one box). And I don't know how other people do jigsaw puzzles, but the first thing I do is find the bright, obvious, easily distinguishable areas with maybe weird texture or a vivid color and go through and collect the pieces that might be part of it in various piles. And then I try to put each pile together into something recognizable and guess where it might fit in the larger frame. Like maybe the frame and then four or five very distinct areas. Until you've got something like this:

Like maybe some areas are big, and some are just two pieces together. And sometimes after a while you realize you have a part that's in the wrong place entirely, or upside down! Or, shit, that's from a different puzzle! (okay, that rarely happens. I am careful with my jigsaw pieces, but I am not with my writing.)

And slowly you add more pieces to connect them all, one at a time. Slowly, slowly. A few pieces a day. Here and there. Maybe adding one more piece to one clump and then pieces to a different clump until they connect. Maybe I leave it languishing on the dining room table for a while to collect dust and get trampled by cats. Maybe I go start a different one. (Nope, I don't do that with puzzles. I don't have the space.)

But the puzzle slowly starts to take shape! The pieces go in faster! Only then... At some point I am left with tons of little spaces and a pile of pieces that are all the same uniform color, but are all funky, different little shapes. And it feels like a drag to figure those out (these are the transitions and small filler bits I have just put off over and over again). Sometimes this is where I literally go back and sort all the puzzle pieces by shape and then try them all one by one until they find a place to go. Tedious. Not the most exciting. Easy to get wrong. But we're So Near The End.

And, sure, it doesn't really happen much when I'm doing a puzzle, but if I stretch the metaphor, in writing I can also find pieces that just don't fit and have to go back to the box.

But what TOTALLY tracks in this metaphor is the euphoric feeling of putting the last goddamn piece into place. And you sit there for a moment being like, "oh my god, it's actually done. It's actually freaking DONE!" And you don't know if you need to get up and run around in a circle or just stare in disbelief. Possibly take a nap.

But it is definitely, finally ready to send off to beta. Ah. So lovely. (Not that I have experienced this in a long while. YEARS.)

Anyway. That is a more apt metaphor for my writing process, for those of you who have asked over the years.

It's probably too early for 2024 resolutions or wishes. But I hope to feel this even ONCE in 2024. Yeah, that would be great.

ranting to y’all this morning bc y’all are my only friends and I hate everybody else :) long winded rant incoming!! I apologize in advance.

realizing I’ve been way too friendly w ppl and bc of that, they feel like they can try me. And then play victim when I bust back For context, I live in a predominantly yt small town and I’ve been here for years. I get along with everybody for the most part and it’s gotten a lot more diverse so it’s not too bad. Esp compared to when I graduated hs. but like a couple days ago, I changed up my hair color bc I was bored and needed sum different. I don’t work in public so it’s not like I have to have a neutral color and I used to wear different colors all the time when I worked at the local grocery store. Point is, im not new to this, im true to this shit. I used to be a walking rainbow. They’ve seen me before. Anyways, I always talk to a lot of ppl that work in the stores, or just passing by. mainly abt anime bc I’m always wearing something related to it (side note: there are like 3 blk cashiers who are in to animanga in my town and it makes me so happy! We always nerd out and shit) but I wore my new hair color out the other day, which is a orange and brown ombré, just to kinda change it up. Life is too fucking short anyways. I’m stuck in the house all day and when I go out, I tend to stick to the same outfits and hairstyles for no reason other than I’m too lazy to dig through my tons of clothes and 30 other wigs. Besides, I’m coming right back to the house anyways and I’m not tryna impress nobody so who gives a fuck. Well this bitch felt the need to ask me ‘is that all you wear?’ As if my lil AOT shirt was bothering her funky ass and she wasn’t even in the conversation b/w me and my fellow blerd brother working the register. To which I ask her are all her teeth really gone at 21 from doing meth? (It was quiet, no back talk then) and then, that same day, these lil snot nose ass kids call themselves walking by me laughing and trying to be funny. Then they tried to grab at my bag and keychains on them. And had the nerve to run behind their dad and play victim, so I told him that if he doesn’t discipline his kids, I’d beat their asses myself so keep a leash on them. And as if it wasn’t bad enough, another bitch made a sideways comment abt how she didn’t expect me to ‘wear something like that’ and I told her thank god it’s on my head and not hers bc I didn’t ask. Saying all this to say that I’m tired of folks trying me and then acting like bitches when confronted. I don’t like being made to be the aggressor bc a bunch of Mayo maggots can’t shut the fuck up and mind the business that pays them. 😭😭 like do not come for me unless I send for you and damn sure don’t try me. I may smile and be friendly but bitch I’m not. I will hurt y’all.

#cherry chats 🍒#like I really be chilling #and I enjoy the bit of social interaction I get bc it’s hard working from home sometimes (even though I’m never quitting!)#but ffs ion like when I gotta get out of character #like I can’t stand that bullshit #I should be able to express myself just like everybody else #I don’t owe you hoes neutrality to make you comfortable #fuck respectability politics #esp for a town full of ppl that do meth #imma go back to sleep before I get mad all over again lmao

Aquarium date HCs – ft. Heizou, Tighnari, Cyno x G/N reader

[Modern AU]

TW: pet names (darling, love, sweetheart), fluff pspspspsp

Heizou

• He would use his hand to cover your eyes and guide you slowly on your way.

• Until you reach the most magnificent hallway ever.

• You can see all sorts of fishes swirling around right above your head, illuminating blue light hugging you both, ultimately making it the most romantic thing ever.

• “You like it? I knew you would.” Heizou throws you his signature smirk, the proudest one.

• But through that, you can still see the endearing green eyes looking at you.

• May be it isn’t the marine life that he wanted to see after all.

====

The idea of going to the aquarium was brought up by the funky detective himself, out of the blue. It didn’t stir your mind up much when you received his messages, however, you were blindfolded the moment you stepped into the mall with him. It’s a surprise, he said.

“Alright now, open your eyes wide”

You slowly opened your eyes to adapt to the sudden light that lurked into your orbs, your vision was still a little bury due to Heizou’s hand closing them shut. However, you were welcomed with an astonishing sight by the time you blinked. A stingray swam way above your head. To your awe, bundles of small fish were dancing to the relaxing movement of water. Colourful coral reefs fluttered to the flow and tiny bubbles could be seen. Reflection casted upon you both, an illuminating yet chilling light hugging you and your dear partner.

You were in lost for words, therefore failed to notice that Heizou’s hand had intertwined with yours. Time seemed to have been slowed down.

“I knew you would like this, (Y/N). My conduction was right after all.” He gave off a victorious smirk.

“And for a moment I thought you secretly had interests in marine life?” You joked.

Blue light drowing Heizou’s emerald irises into a mesmerizing color. His eyes were still beautiful as they were, staring into yours. You could feel it, the endearing stares of his on you.

“Water and fish doesn’t sound like the best thing to me, but you do, darling.”

Tighnari

• An absolute genius about plants, but doesn’t have much knowledge about other fields.

• That’s why he came up with the idea of aquarium date.

• You are caught up in his studious remark, end up finding him with a huge penguin plushie later..

• “I suppose you would like this thing, so I tried my best to win the mini game.”

• He even pointed out more for you (while holding your hand), it’s hard to believe that he has just absorbed these information.

• Whilst talking about sea creatures, Tighnari is still mindful about your presence.

====

Tighnari’s botanical knowledge were surely impeccable, but when it came to something else, it was his turn to be the silent curious one. Unsurprisingly, the invitation came from him and not you. You had never thought of Tighnari as an ocean lover, so you quickly texted him back a yes as soon as you saw the message.

An aquarium date with a botanist/ forest ranger? It intrigued you more than anything else.

You weren’t keen on marine biology either, so you decided to read the display boards along with Tighnari. Sometimes you got distracted and looked at the guy next to you, whose eyes were glued to the confusing texts. It this was about plants, nothing could ever separate him from the board before he finished it, you thought. When you saw Tighnari parted from the bronze texts, you dragged him to see some strange species up ahead.

“This one looks ugly, but it has an easy name to remember.” He commented.

You practically laughed at his respond and instinctively went back to read the information about that fish, since you thought he would do the same anyways. The text was relatively long and by the time you reached the very last word, Tighnari was nowhere to be seen.

Frantically looking for him around the area, you finally spotted his familiar figure approaching you with a penguin plushie in his arms.

“Woa where did you get this?? It’s so cute.” Your eyes lit up when you saw the cute merch.

“I suppose you would like this thing, so I tried my best to win the mini game.” He smiled softly.

You hardly ever saw the competitive side of him, so it really took you by surprise.

Tighnari gave you the penguin and held your free hand as he led you to the curved fishtank hallway. His fingers were still trembling after the game.

“Let’s keep going now, I will tell you more about these swimming creatures since you seemed to be bored of reading.” He paused. “Oh right, love, hold me hand tightly so that you won’t lose me again, yes?”

Cyno

• Dude be hitting you up with some of the lamest jokes he could come up with. Canon tho

• He definitely takes you to see the dolphin show but stays silent

• Despite that, he demands changing seat with you when he sensed that your spot can easily splashed.

• He got soaked almost right after swapping you out.

• Leans down to kiss your forehead when you tried to dry his hair with a towel.

• “You know what’s the warmest moon? Moonfish.”

====

One thing that you always kept in mind: Cyno can joke about almost anything, as long as he found the fun in it – and the aquarium date wasn’t any exception. He made a joke about how you turned up 2 minutes late and he’s practically a Bigmouth buffalo fish just because of his limited Arataki shirt. (Also, BMF fish is a species with a really long lifespan and Cyno implied that he had to wait for you for ‘long’).

Instead of looking through every tanks, he straight up asked if you wanted to see the dolphin show which wasn’t so far away. You gladly agreed, knowing that he might not be interested in scientific displays despite being so smart. Cyno took your hand in his and walked to the auditorium. It was crowded to say the least, and Cyno had to scold away a bunch of teenagers who were occupying too much seats by putting their leg on another chair. You two eventually got your seats, pretty much close to the stage.

The show was impressive, with the dolphins doing all kinds of tricks and water spraying in rhythmic sequences. People cheered loudly to the well-trained dolphins, but Cyno only watched in silence. While you were still gasping and clapping, he quickly noticed that your spot was especially easy to be splashed water on.

“(Y/N), can you change seat with me?”

“Why though?” you asked in confusion.

“You will be soaked sitting there, just switch.” Cyno grabbed your arm and plopped you on his old seat.

With that, your boyfriend was greeted by a wave the moment he sat down, while you only got splashed on your right shoulder. In panick, you hurriedly took him outside and bought a small towel to dry him off.

“Thank you for telling me, and I’m also sorry.” You stroked his head with the towel, yet he only looked at you.

Cyno suddenly leaned down to kiss your forehead, a cheeky smile formed on his lips.

“Don’t worry sweetheart, I can change later when going back home.” Upon seeing your stressed out face, he came up with yet another jest: “You know what’s the warmest moon? Moonfish.”

You bursted out a giggle, not knowing if it was because of the joke or his terrible ability to make a joke funny at last.

Samurai Champloo Review

What the hell even is a 'champloo' anyways? Ever since one fateful Passover seder, where my older cousin told me about this series, I've wondered about it. Its certainly not English, and though a quick Google search could give me my answer, the mystery of it all kept this show on my radar for nearly a decade. Its not often that a show with a title as puzzling as this get popular, especially enough for my slacker cousin to recommend it to me. With a recommendation like that, though, I knew there was something special about it.

Samurai Champloo is a strange breed. Created in 2004 by Masaru Gotsubo, and animated by defunct studio Manglobe, the series follows a trio of miscreants on a journey to find a mysterious samurai. Along the way, they dodge the law, fight assassins, and discover how hard it is to be a minority in a changing world.

Champloo's biggest draw is it's style. The series features a modern-style Edo that keeps the historical dress and architecture, but adds a contemporary kick everywhere else. The opening alone sets the tone perfectly: sharply colored characters, juxtaposed onto paper-like backgrounds, moving to a hip-hop flow. Its stylish, like an old-school music video, and draws you in in seconds with its funky beat and striking visuals. Its the perfect opening, and things only get cooler from there.

The Edo of this anime features a mix of traditional Japanese and modern North American styles, presented in a way that sets it apart from the rest. Its a show where you might find a samurai sword fight set to record scratches, or characters wistfully embarking on a journey while hip-hop music plays in the background. Early episodes use these scratches in the soundtrack as editing cues, cross-cutting between actions at the sound to create a wholly unique experience. It can't be overstated how much the musical styles of this anime make the viewing experience shine.

On top of that, much of the content of the show's episodes takes pages from a more modern handbook. One episode has the main trio caught up in the world of graffiti, as two brothers compete to see who can 'tag' the most dangerous places. Another has them play against American traders in a overly-violent game of baseball. All the while, characters talk with modern slang, ditching formalities and keeping with the tone the soundtrack sets. All this combined creates a historical anime that feels surprisingly contemporary, despite the obvious.

Over the course of the show's 26 episodes, we follow a main trio of characters as they journey to find a mysterious samurai who smells of sunflowers. The trip is long, and each episode usually features the gang stopping somewhere and getting involved in a stranger's problems, usually learning some moral or getting a lead on their quest afterwards. Its not often for series as mature as these to be episodic, given how seriously they take their plots, but here, it works well.

Every episode feels like another step along their journey, whether it be an eating contest in a big city, or hunting down a pick-pocket who stole their wallets. The series also does an excellent job at making the journey feel long, often referring back to the places the characters have been so far to keep track of it. You could actually track the trio's journey with a real life map if you wanted, since all the places they visit are historical, and probably still exist. Maybe someone out there has even tried their journey in real life...?

An anime is only as interesting as its main characters, and this one certainly has an interesting cast. The series stars three characters, who together, always find a way to screw things up in the most hilarious ways. First, there's Fuu, a young woman who meets the other two characters when they burn her workplace down, and enlists them to help find the samurai who smells of sunflowers. The show pulls no punches with her, often having her be the butt of the joke just as much as her companions. She's loud, whiny, naïve, and often eats the most out of all of them. Yet, she's usually the one that stops fights, is the voice of reason in all this show's chaos, and shows kindness to everyone she meets, even someone who tried to kill her. Though the other characters might play her off as another nagging woman, Fuu's right more often than not, and is a valuable member of the team.

Next is Jin, a ronin with a cool attitude. He's the level-headed one of the trio, often keeping to himself instead of jumping into arguments like the others. His cold exterior hides some pretty deep traumas, which were exciting to learn more about as the story developed. Characters like him are often stereotyped as unfeeling swordsmen, yet beneath all the sullen glances and reclusive body language, he grows to care about his companions more than any sense of pride.

Lastly, there's Mugen, the wild vagrant. His reckless fighting style, love for battle, and unquenchable pride endeared him to me pretty quickly, making him an easy choice as favorite. Compared to Jin and Fuu, Mugen is an old-school tough guy, a shonen protagonist aged up a decade and thrown backwards a couple hundred years. Like Jin, he initially is quite guarded, but learns to express himself little by little, eventually revealing his tragic backstory. Though, to be fair, most of his self expression comes in the form of violence or threats, but I'm not here to judge him.

Together, these three form a simple comedy trio, and get into trouble at every turn on their journey as they learn to tolerate each other. From start to finish, the trio struggle to get along peacefully, but that's what makes their dynamic worth watching. Mugen and Jin's mutual hatred, balanced out by Fuu's persistence, is what keeps them going. Depending on what episode it is, they take turns being the 'straight man', keeping the dynamic fresh and free of stale tropes.

At the heart of this anime, though, is its theme of identity in a changing world. Throughout the series, the trio encounter various minority groups along their journey, and learn about their unique struggles. One episode has them protecting a secret Dutch immigrant, taking him on a tour of the city while they dodge immigration officers. When the man reveals that he fled his home country because of homophobia, it doesn't feel out of place or poorly handled. His queerness is just as much a part of his character arc as his foreign-ness, and though the show makes a few light-hearted jabs at his accent and obvious visual difference, it takes the rest of his identity rather seriously. This character, while only in the show for an episode, is just one of many minority characters in this series that is handled well, showing that a series doesn't have to be disrespectful to be historical.

Another major theme in this series is death, and the acceptance of it. Being an action series, its pretty obvious that a lot of characters die, but what's interesting is how other characters deal with those deaths. Many side characters who the trio befriend on their journey are dealing with loss in some way, whether it be a husband, sibling, child, or something else. We witness how their grief drives them, such as with Fuu, or various other characters in the series. In a world such as the one in this series, death is commonplace, but a healthy acceptance of it is unfortunately less so. Each encounter with death in the series opens up new discussions about it, and often had me pondering what these characters might do next, or how I would deal with their situations.

In the end, though, Samurai Champloo is a fascinating series that brings a unique blend of Eastern and Western styles to make a truly memorable viewing experience. It's hip-hop soundtrack pairs beautifully with flashy and quick-paced sword fighting, creating a simultaneous modern-historical vibe to it all. Its characters have an enjoyable dynamic that kept me coming back day after day for more, which inevitable led to disappointment upon discovering how short this series is. If we lived in a perfect world, this would have at least an extra season, but unfortunately, perfect this world ain't.

But hey, at least I can spend my Pink Halloween (read: Valentine's Day) knowing that Fuu is valid, Mugen is gender, and Jin defintely got pegged in that one episode.

Okay so messy coloring BUT I just wanted to yeet this brain rot into existence. I suck at bodies, but these two are supposed to be leviathan class as far as Length goes, though torso and head area is just slightly bigger than average human. Yes, it's a subnautica AU, it actually takes place around Sector Zero for the ice, so it's technically a Subnautica: Below Zero AU, but I'm not going to be pendatic about that, more info below the cut!

Do you know... how hard it is... to make something that's recognizeable as both alien... AND a mermaid? because... this was difficult. (why yes, I did get inspired for Moon's un-injured side by Zoras, I'll finish the injured/scarred side and a front view in a bit. Yes, Sun's rays are all funky sizes and not all the same shape, I did this by hand and tried to do it in like an hour, okay? This paper is thick but it was deteriorating the more layers of color I put on it, so I had to be kinda careful with it.)

Sun and Moon are, in fact, from the same species, but from separate branching "pods". Kinda like you have a group of Sphynx cats and a group of Himalayans--same creature, different breed. Normally, they're territorial, but mostly they can mesh on an individual level, forming their own little families and crossing the genetics and blah blah blah it's all aliens I can make up what I want. Both are on the small size of adult, the largest ones growing up to 100 meters long or longer! These two clock in at about 40 and 38 meters respectively, but they're capable of furling fins and coiling up to be smaller. Sun is much more open and engaging while Moon is much more subdued.

Sun's fins on the rest of him is supposed to be remniscent of a betta fish.

the rest of Moon is more sleek and smooth (except when he's doing a territorial display, at which point, with his spines and fins, he looks more like the lionfish, but blue and luminescent white)

(heavily filtered picture of a lionfish to try to make it look more black and blue-ish)

Anyway, hope everyone who has read and commented on Galaxies, Lost in Ice has an excellent day and know tha tyou all made my day yesterday and today with this, thank you!

sweetness I hope you’ve had a wonderful week mwah mwah! I was thinking about that one drabble that you wrote of us!dabi and us!keigo continuously cheating on us!yn and I was wondering if we could please get a bit of an angst drabble (I have departed from the smut/fluff train and I am now boarding the angst one)

hi darling! i hope you’ve been well and taking care of yourself! i’ve pretty much wrapped up that little cheating drabble timeline but i definitely will not deny you us series angst (´ ω `♡)

warnings: angsty-ish, touya carries reader briefly, like a sort of make up but also not?

Right now, all three of you are in a department store looking at dinnerware.

“Does it really matter what kind I get? We just need something to eat on." Touya sighs as his eyes gloss over the different styles, sizes, and shapes of plates that are presented on a shelf. Getting something new didn't necessitate that he needed to get anything fancy or flashy. All plates are there for the same purpose; to just put food on it and then eat off of.

Keigo looks over a set of five blue plates and compares it to a set of six that are in the color black. "You know that we're replacing more than just things to eat off of. What about the bowls and the cups too?" he points out.

"God, who cares?" Touya huffs out and he gestures vaguely to the entire shelf, "Let's just buy whatever we need to replace and get going. I do not care what they look like. It's not like it will be expensive for me anyway."

You stand off to the side and keep to yourself. The boys just talk only to each other while you are simply just there with them. They are not exactly ignoring you but you're not apart of the conversation either. In fact they wouldn't be here talking of dinner plates and fruit bowls if it weren't for you.

They wouldn't be here if it weren't for the tantrum you threw yesterday.

It's embarrassing when your anger gets the best of you and you become destructive. You can't even remember what had made you upset again just like many other fights before. Just another meaningless argument with your blue eyed boyfriend where he said that you were being dramatic again. He had angrily cursed and decided to step out.

When he had returned probably no more than ten minutes later, he came back to you having emptied out the cupboard of all the dinnerware. Broken ceramic pieces were shattered on the floor. Barely anything survived your rampage.

You stood on the opposite side of the kitchen, the only clear space with no broken pieces and chips of ceramic was only where you stood. With all the little sharp bits and pieces lay before you, the only option to be able to get out would have been to crawl up onto the countertop.

Touya had pulled on his boots only to be able to step over all the broken ceramic to retrieve you, putting you over his shoulder and carrying you off to the bedroom where you were essentially put on timeout.

While you cried into a pillow, he swept up everything into a trash bag and cleaned up after the mess you made. Even in your attempt to apologize, Touya didn't want to hear you speak and he went to bed with his back to you.

So now here you are, simply watching as Keigo tries to put thought into selecting dinnerware and Touya not wanting to put in any whatsoever. Your eyes drift over to the opposite end of shelves where where there are sets of mugs as well as individual ones as well. A white mug with pink clouds painted on it catches your attention. There's other designs and sizes with flowers or cats or some cheesy quote in funky lettering that are there for sale too.

"Stoneware would be good, yeah?" Keigo's voice break away your attention and you look back to see him holding a set in his arms. "It even comes with the bowls and mugs. Isn't that great?"

Touya doesn't have a comment and you just mumble a quiet 'yeah'.

The three of you move out the aisle to head to the checkout. You remain silent waiting in the long line and looking again at the rows set up along the checkout line for any last minute purchases. Again you happen upon the same mug that you saw in the aisle and your gaze lingers on it.

Before you can even react, Touya's reaching for the exact mug you're staring at it and holds it in his hand. "Quit staring at it like that, I'm gonna buy it." he states without looking at you and just keeps his gaze forward. You try to tell him it's fine and that you didn't really want it but Keigo's foot nudges against yours.

You stay silent and guess that maybe this might be Touya's way of also trying to move on from your tantrum.

The white mug with pink clouds sits on the countertop as you unbox the dinnerware set. It's heavier than you'd expected it to be and Keigo had chosen a pleasing color palette. Four plates, four bowls, and four mugs to replace the set he had before in the cupboard. You push aside the box so that it's out of your way, unknowing that it actually pushes and tips the white mug over the edge of the countertop. From the corner of your eye, you barely catch a glance as it falls and don't react quick enough to even attempt to catch it.

It smashes into little shards and big bits.

"Baby? You okay?" Keigo looked up from the book he was reading and comes to your side. He gives you a consoling little 'oh' when he looks at the mess by your feet. "It's okay, I'll clean it up."

You're sitting on the kitchen countertop as Touya emerges from the shower with a towel around his neck. He's drying his hair and he asks if he actually heard something break or if he was just imagining it. Keigo sweeps the broken mug into a dustpan and makes sure to sweep the broom in the little corners that stray pieces may have fallen to. It's disappointing that he had gone out of his way to buy it for you only for it to break the same day.

Touya offers no words though, just waiting patiently until Keigo finishes cleaning the mess and the dustpan is emptied into the garbage.

"'M sorry Touya." you tell him as he helps you off the countertop. He only offers the small gesture of rubbing your back and doesn't say anything.

It feels a little cruel almost that the gift he had given you to try to move on ended up being broken by your own actions. So you have to figure that this is karma for what you had done. You walk out of the kitchen only to step on something sharp. "Ow!"

"Aw man, must have missed one! C'mere dove, let me see and make sure it's not too bad."

Now it felt like a punishment.

Know you're not as in the OMORI fandom as before but idea I had and that has probably been thought beforehand

OMORI Paranormal AU

It's not Mari who is the ghost but... Sunny

Sunny's headspace persists through death, drawing in each of the friends, into a somewhat similar headspace, but probably more colors than just purple

Each of the friends are filled with hazy nostalgia and whimsy, and can't exactly remember everything in headspace, and all their dreams are mostly lost, just feelings and colors... Though

Basil (seemingly) wakes up first, in the dream, more aware, there's still disconnection between his waking self and dream self, but the creeping sense something is off persists

He tries to investigate... But of course, headspace resists, and he feels.. weird, seeing sunny...

So, things change, Basil is put back to sleep, and eventually wakes back again

Then back again, and now it's Omori, he wakes again

Omori, again, now a bit more avoidant, he wakes again

Omori again, now Basil instructed to stay on the blanket with Mari, he still wakes again

And finally, after probably more resets than I listed, OMORI goes missing, and the group must find them, Mari, who seems a bit more put together and mature than they remember, supports them from the sidelines

(Mari woke up first, and has been denying that sense, and following along. She misses her brother. [Also, I think this would be a Sunny dies at the lake AU, than an OMARI or Basil AU] She wishes she could have saved him.)

Hope u like it!!

(im still in the omori community!! jsut. doent have the energy to go thru the tag each day and make regular posts -w-'' anyways)

OOH !! this sounds like an interesting AU!! always love funky kind of supernatural shit with headspace.enriching

VikingPilot propaganda:

"Unreliable narrator of all time, this FUCKED UP MESS OF A GHOST has sooooo much nonsense going on and going WRONG with him. This mans starts off as a tragic character whos unable to interact with ANYONE, but once he becomes semi-corporeal and is finally able to speak to others, this results in a LOT of problems for everyone else.

To simply name a few, he phases through things and jump-scares people any chance he gets, he went to unreasonable extremes in order to acquire an I.O.U. from a very powerful person (Legundo) that ultimately accidentally results in a mini apocalypse, he gets an I.O.U. from someone else (Fixxit) and just orders him to stop Legundo at all costs?, hes ALMOST canonically plural/two people, this bitch has a fucking insane underground vault (with like twelve full sets of netherite, a dimond and netherite throne, and its just spooky as hell), He probably has the best scary laugh i’ve ever heard, and hes ALWAYS up to mischief.

Oh also he tries to do some Dark Magic but isn’t capable of going through with it due to Legundo not properly following through with his I.O.U., and he decides to remind Legundo of this in the MOST mentally well adjusted way possible ( https://youtube.com/clip/UgkxbcBe_A7YYtt2K33_Rm4V71SG0sqdnEY_ ).

Anyways thats most of the major nonsense I can think of for right now so uhhh! Enjoy the VikingPilot propaganda and please remember you are NEVER immune to Bell Noises!"

"Lovely unreliable narrator who loves jumpscaring his friends."

"quote from the ghosty boy himself. ""what do the interest rates look like on your word?"""

"he's a ghost. he has no memories. his soul got torn asunder by an evil magic book. he's trying to do a ritual from the evil magic book that split him in half so that he can get his memories back. he's a sneaky bastard who's double crossing everyone else on the server. he makes a lot of really terrible jokes. he (canonically!) says trans rights. vikingpilot you agree reblog."

"split color scheme. unreliable narrator. plural swag. committed tax fraud."

"Viking is a ghost haunting the world of Dominion SMP! For a long time, he was merely an observer— no one could see him, no one could hear him, he couldn’t interact with anything; no one knew he even existed. That was, I until the members of Dominion killed the Ender Dragon. This changed… something… in the world, and caused him to be visible, audible, and (mostly) tangible.

From there, he made a haunted graveyard, spooked people by sneaking up on them and shouting ‘Bell noises!!’, had a totally normal and not at all unhinged response to (one) asking for a favor, and (two) following up on that favor when it had not yet been kept, and he built a creepy mansion! He also plays piano!

He’s not sure how or when he died, but he feels certain that he was someone important. At some point in the time he was a ghost, he somehow got his hands on a book, which contains different rituals, and apparently, the contents of this book broke his mind, somewhat splitting it in two, and possibly being the source of his amnesia. Notably, the book contains a ritual that would allow him to regain his memories, and this has been his main objective for most of the series."

"ghost of ALL TIME. haunted his friends for months before they suddenly became able to see him. walks through walls. has world's most evil nervous laugh. knows exactly where his hinges are buried. unreliable narrator. has an underground vault full of diamonds and expensive armor, including a throne made of netherite. causes shenanigans on purpose. lived in an underground graveyard and then a haunted mansion. monologued for 11 minutes about wanting to do dark magic in order to necromancy himself and cure his amnesia. very pluralcoded. won round 1 of a sexyman bracket despite being a niche character. the most guy/ghost of all time forever"

"i haven’t actually watched dominion,,, but like. i keep seeing this funky little unreliable narrator ghost man on my dash sometimes. so fuck yeah."

"He’s just a silly little ghost guy!"

I hear u want to hear about WEIRD ANIMALS yes?

Well have i got a WEIRD ANIMAL for you!!

(i know u know about this cause. Its a bird. And also was in the bracket if i remember right (to be fair ive been just a TAD confused as to wich bird poll blog this is ever since u changed ur url lol), but i dunno maybe i can give u some new info! And maybe not, but hopefylly you'll put up with me anyway!)

I give you-

(Drumroll please..)

The

BEARDED

VULTURE!!!!!!

Anyway this is my FAVORITE. BIRD. And more people need to talk about her!!!!

So first of all there's the main thing they're known for - being the ONLY known vertabrate whose diet consists mainly (between 70 and 90 PERCENT!!!!!!) of BONE!!!!!!

ALSO however! This bird is POSSIBLE evidence of non-human animal using COSMETICS!!!! Y'see, they are naturally mostly white in coloration, but they roll in iron-rich mud and dust, thus dyeing their feathers a rich red color! Interestingly, Bearded Vultures, a primarily solitary and somewhat territorial animal, seem to be more respectful of and submissive to others of their species who have more red to their feathers. Though it is worth noting, as these birds live in very high altitudes, that we havent been able to observe them in the wild enough to prove the connection between dyed hue and perceived dominance.

Also i seem to remember in some poll (genuinely cant remember if it was urs or not) the Bearded Vulture was beat by a bird whose main notable trait was commiting fratricide - something that the Bearded Vulture ALSO does! The mother lays two eggs, one egg hatches about a week before the other, and upon the second egg hatching one chick (almost always the older one) kills and eats the other. I dont usually share that bit cause it would turn a lot of folks off from my Favorite Bird Ever but it really bothered me how that poll went down lol (lighthearted) (not actually mad)

Anyway, uuuuhhhh i think thats it -

-WAIT!!!!! I just remembered something else about them!!!!!

So they eat bones right? And some bones are to big to swallow yeah? So, like any strong-legged bird would, they pick up the too-big bones, fly way up high, and then drop them on rocks to break them into edible peices.

Seems pretty normal yeah?

Well (allegedly) they also do that to turtles/turtles to access the meat on rare occasion.

Still not that weird? I completely agree!

However, (allegedly) a Bearded Vulture once killed a greek playwright by the name of Aeschylus by mistaking his bald head for a rock and dropping a tortoise on it from a great height!

Anyway yeah thats all the main things

Except you know, for their apearance

(Why are their EYES like that? Ive tried to look it up but cant find anything. Some of the PRETTIEST (round-pupiled) eyes in the animal kingdom tho, no question)

Anyways yeah, sorry if this is all stuff u already knew, but, uh. YEAH!!!

Thanks for letting me rant about my funky lil guy!!!

I DID KNOW ALL OF THIS ALREADY BUT I LOVE YOUR ENTHUSIASM AND I LOVED READING ALL OF IT AGAIN!!! Bearded vultures are so darn pretty. Also you can be genuinely bothered with how a poll went down, I’m still a bit upset with the results of my first bracket. (final girl showdown) 😔

I keep thinking of things I could add on but you’ve pretty much said it all! I guess I could say that the bearded vulture is a card in Inscryption? The power is equal to one half of the player’s bones. I like that little detail.

(proximity) genuinely, i've been thinking about cross being a major nerd, right? like, he ditched all his interests when the world ended, but before it did, he was like, interested in and exploring whatever he could, and he had like, a bunch of niche and specific knowledge because of it, right?

well, i wanna think that, like the guitar thing, most of those skills and interests were just kinda sacrificed, though every now and then, something would come up and be unusually helpful, but for the most part, the old cross is just kinda. dead.

and killer is over here ressurecting his ass

that being said, and moving on to something that's entirely unrelated tbh, i was thinking about killer like, doing his thing, scavenging, snooping around and shit, and he comes across a fancy ass shop with rich people clothes and shit and he like

being the closet diva that he is, starts picking through the place with the idea of surprising cross with a nice afternoon of Pretending Things Are Okay, featuring Nice Clothes and he ends up spending so long in there that cross comes looking for him, worried that killer is stuck or under attack or something

and he walks in on killer holding some weird [slightly moldy and decayed] dressy outfits over himself in front of one of the changing room mirrors and he's like

"what are you doing."

killer EEPS and drops the funky clothes and spins around to be like "W- CROSS-- Haha, hi, what, uh. What are you doing here-," as if he weren't just holding, idk, a wedding dress or something

and cross is like.

(LOUD STARING)

and killer is progressively getting mildly embarrassed because i mean cmon, he was check-in out some clothes and then his boyfriend?? partner???? companion???????? just shows up outta nowhere, bro's embarrassed

"UH."

he just like, kicks the clothes he was holding away from himself and tries to casually be like "Don't worry about it." and cross just like, comes over and picks up the discarded clothes and examines it with mild interest.

"...Do you. Like this?"

and killer just kinda gets a bit more embarrassed and makes a bunch of noises, like the kind where someone asks you something and you try to say a bunch of shit at once and it just comes out sheepish sounding like "ehehhh yeaaaa im phfsphshshaha yanno" and you shrug, sort of, but you just scrunch up your shoulders and wave a hand around like that'll help you catch a good excuse to say

that's what killer does and it's totally incomprehensible and cross just snorts and tosses the clothes thing back to killer [i keep going back to it being a sun dress, like a really bright colorful thing, though not as colorful as it used to be, but color nonetheless] and he like, leans against the wall and is like

"You wanna try it on?" and killer just kinda makes another bunch of syllables because he doesn't know what else to do and cross is like, mildly amused and he's gotten more relaxed at this point, so he's doing some joshin', and he like, mildly eggs killer into trying the clothes on

anyways, me thinks that they'd totally break into some fancy clothes store and try shit on for fun and it's totally killer's idea, but cross eggs it on (sorta)

i'm getting more and more deviated away from the og perception of them, but listen man, i just like the idea of killer finding something colorful and getting attached to it or something

maybe he has like, a bunch of strips of fabric that he tore from all kinds of colorful clothes and it's all stored in his backpack so when any of his clothes rip or something, he just patches it up with the fabric

i wanna believe that he has some yellow duck patterned fabric patching up a hole on his backpack, and it's one of the first things that clued cross in to killer's very very self-indulgent behaviors

on like, the reread of this, i have realized how mildly unintelligible this is and i hope it makes sense cackles

OOHH OH I LOVE THAT Killer would he would obsessed with that

Killer would so find colorful stuff and get attached to it so true. Like he just has so much random junk (/lh) like that in his pockets

Going back to the Pretending Things Are Okay thing I’m like. Imagining them being in some big abandoned partially destroyed mall (which was where the fancy clothes store Killer found was at) and so after their whole little fashion show thing they start rummaging around mostly for usual resources but along the way they just end up messing around like you would at normal mall. Like they find some definitely barely edible food at what remains of the food court and Killer finds a small bit of a candle and they set up their own little version of some stereotypical date setting. Which they never acknowledge as that or a date because of course they wouldn’t. And they just kinda sit there on raggedy blankets eating off a mostly broken crate they found somewhere, gazing out a massive hole in the wall like it’s a starlit window while everything’s lit by the sickly flame of a barely holding on candle. But they still talk and make conversation and maybe even laugh a little even though it’s really not that different then their every other evening by fires hunkering under bits of destroyed building, but to them it’s different cause it’s like. They can escape for a bit.

and maybe the whole time Killer’s wearing that off color, tattered yellow sundress Cross walked in on him admiring, even though he eventually changes back into his normal clothes for the sake of practicality but damn did he hate to have to leave that dress behind. And maybe he tears off a bit of its fabric to shove in his pocket and take with him, as a little reminder of their time at the broken down mall or something.

ANYWAY that was an unintentional tangent lmao Everything you said is so true and so real I love it

#I didn’t answer this one privately on accident let’s go /silly #answering asks #chair asks #chair!!#apocalyptic kross au #both you and deni have so many good ideas for this AU I really wish I had more to contribute ftfhth #but so many of mine recently have to be like. Art for me to convey it well enough #though I am rereading my answer here and realizing I managed to pull that from somewhere and convey it decently. Still #Cross x killer #Also fairly unrelated but you said Killer’s backpack I think #Which he doesn’t have he just carries stuff in his pockets fhfhf #which makes me think Killer sneaks his pieces of fabric hoard into CROSS’S bag #so Cross is like looking for supplies and he just comes across these colorful bits of fabric Killer shoved in there

RANT ABOUT THAT THERE OC YOU HAVE AQUIRED!!! :D I invite thee to gremlin in my direction!

WELL info on THAT oc is- [CONFIDENTIAL]

BUT I CAN RAMBLE ABOUT ANOTHER OC I HAVE! He is... a tad similar in concept to the oc I was talking about :3

SO! This guy has been with me for.. many a year atp, went through a lot of redesigns and his story has been rewritten more times than I can count jcjf he's never seen the light of day til now so- yea haha

Say hi to Chroma!

How evident is it that I redesigned him during covid?

Chroma is a Sans from my undertale au, ChainTale! Or... well one of them. He is Chain!Sans 1.0 Something effed up in his au and it got deleted with Chroma surviving only because of his funky magical structure, basically weird chain!monster anatomy and magic n stuff nfncn

Chroma's code isn't compatible with any universe anymore, not ever ChainTale 2.0, so he just sorta glitches from place to place with no choice of where or when or for how long.

There are tells of when another glitch out is getting close. The longer Chroma stays in a certain au, the glitchier he gets.

The first few times he got glitched out (doodle of that cuz it's funny)

He attempted to figure out why everything's so different around him. He even tried to get to know a few people. That however- those friendships never lasted him long as he always ended up being ripped away from the friends he'd made.

Over time he stopped trying to connect with people, as it did him nothing but make him feel even more miserable. He chose to hide his face to avoid being recognized as a Sans, cuz- obviously an au would have its own version of the guy (Or not, in which case it would be sus to see a random unknown or dead person)

ChainTale Sanses are also rather tall for a Sans. Standing at 5'7

Chroma can summon and hide his 'chains' at will.

Chroma's bones have gained a gray hue sort of coloring on his fingers and hands. Marking him as a glitch in the system (if the glitches and binary chains weren't telling enough)

I had some notes on his particular brand of chain magic but I don't remember what it was haha. All I know is that it's different from Chain's (ChainTale 2.0 Sans)

SPEAKING OF CHAIN! Might as well shove this on here (have a ref for him as well.. maybe I thought it was finished but what I found I have saved is just a wip)

Lil tartar loving guy

He also doesn't wear shoes. Yes he still lives in Snowdin, yes there's still snow in Snowdin. Yes the wet trail he leaves behind drives Rust (ChainTale Papyrus) up a wall.

Anyway lil comic doodle, how this dumbass got into the Omega Timeline? Good question.

Okay turned into a ramble about two of my oc's but it's FIIIIIIIINE

Not what ya asked about, but I couldn't let a chance to ramble about my guys pass me by

#answered asks #cheetochild989 #undertale au #wowza a lotta rambling in this one haha #chain also has to have a lotta iron in his diet #due to his chains #rust sprinkles on actual rust on his spaghetti #idk if I will revive this au #just saw an opportunity to ramble and i took it #all the drawings are from 2021 I believe so.. rather old nfjfjf

Musing on bg3 mods and learning styles/requirements

Okay. I've spent the requisite hours browsing tumblr and ruminating on gender this morning. Now its time to work. Back to operation: Lythira's custom face/head. Gonna have to redo it from the start today but I managed to get an elf head onto a tiefling body and give it some cute spikey ears last night so I think now at least I've got some of the basics of this part of process down. It only took the better part of 8+hours, some tears and temper tantrums, and wanting to give up and never look at it again like half a dozen times to get the first couple of steps figured out(sort of). Real talk tho: the tutorials, guides, resources, etc for this are so very frustrating FOR ME. They're full of wonderful information from very smart, generous humans who're doing all this for free and I'm so incredibly grateful. However, the way they're laid out, the way folks just gesture vaguely to their general direction with a "these tutorials are wonderful and all you need and this is how everyone else figured it out so you should be able to too", the lack of a step by step-hold your hand through every single click and button press and explain every tiny detail as we go through the full thing is PAIN for me. I know I probably sound stupid to others to need that level of care but meh. Its not something I can help so oh well. And its NO ONES FAULT! I am not mad at them about it. I am not dunking on the people who've created and shared these things AT ALL. Again - I AM EXTREMELY GRATEFUL! THEY ARE FUCKING AMAZING! TRULY! It's just not the best FOR ME. I am struggling because of my own funky little processing center. My own special brand of fucking adhd bullshit. Which tbh is a whole thing in itself. I cried the first night I started trying to understand all of this because I realized just how hard it was going to be for me to make sense of any of it in a meaningful way. Got up from my desk after desperately trying to focus and understand for several hours and seeing the comments of "just follow this. just do this. just watch this first." that pointed to things that were equally as unhelpful to me and just crawled in bed feeling stupid and childish and defeated. If not for my husband's encouragement the next day when I was talking to him about my frustration, and his reminder that he's got some knowledge of what I'm doing and he'd always help me because he knows how my brain works, I never would have tried again I don't think. There may be what I'm looking for out there somewhere and I just haven't found it yet for sure. But man I've been looking. Anyway, I think because I love teaching, once I get it all figured out well enough that I'm comfortable sharing what I know, I might write up a guide in the language and style that I would have needed. I did something like it for my eye color presets that I plan on fleshing out more and sharing eventually. I've done it with plenty of other stuff in other games as well. It wouldn't be hard with the notes I take as I learn. Just take some time and lord knows I've got lots of that to spare. If it helps one other person who's like me and isn't a fan of everything mostly being video tutorials and prefers to be given every single step in order with lots of detail and explanation, then the time will be well spent.
