Cuuuuuure Finale!

...to be clear, I mean Amane Kasai. I don't think this series is gonna end for a good long while.

-Poor lass. Even in the recap, Amane suffers.

-Oh wow, Narcistoru's still at it. What a bastard.

-...you wanna be a parfait, huh?

-Fwuit Paunch for Everyone!

-The sight of Amane totally shutting herself out like this is quite painful, won't lie.

-"Wow, you guys are Amane's friends :)"

-Half kidding, yeah ok Mitsuki. ...or was it Mizuki?

-Yeah, pls be good to Amane-san, she deserves it.

-Those're wonderful looking parfaits.

-"Narcistoru" indeed.

-Ohhhh, that's more threatening.

-Ohhhhh, that's cruel. You bastard.

-President Amai has been kidnapped by Bundorus! Are you a Pretty enough Cure to save the president?

-...did I make that reference before? I definitely made that reference before.

-Y'know, Yum-Yum could probably very easily cut through his whisk arm.

-...man, I just realized. Dying to a whisk is probably the most humiliating way to go out.

-Oh, epic.

-I don't know how these motherfuckers did it, but they turned this silly cartoon about girls eatin' and beating up demonic kitchen appliances and turned it into something genuinely making me feel.

-Boiled noodles, burnt bread, and steamed rice.

-Amane, have you met Yui? This girl'd probably

-"My grandmother once said... 'One that drowns in oneself will eventually fall to darkness.'"

-Yoooooooo, Mari-chan!

-...still cool, I stand by that.

-Mmm... Parfait...

-Babby

-Good job Amane.

-What even is that thing?

-Oh wow. Damn, you're fabulous.

-Somebody really pulled out all the stops on Amane, she looks fantasting.

-Ohhhhh, she said "Gentle!"

-Cure Finale! ...getting real Kiwami Arms vibes from her.

-As expected, she stronk

-Guess it helps that she's a trained martial artist, as we saw last episode.

-Creamy Fleuret, huh? That's a stumpy little sword ya got there, lass.

-Delicious Finale Fanfare!

-Mmmm... fruit...

-Freed Bepis.

-Yeah you better run bitch

-Amai-kaichou! That's your new nickname!

-Heart Fruit Pendant.

-Bow before El Presidente!

-...yeah, I don't know either Kokone.

-Mmmm... grape juice.

-Love that shit.

-Ayyyy

-Ahhh, basuday! For the lads!

-Cake...

-Yeah, this was a good episode. Not a lot to say other than I had fun and I'm very happy to get to know these characters more and more.

-One might even say that I'm hungry for more, if they were as unfunny as I am.

hi everyone i made more mmd lesbianisms.

#the reason why she keeps her heart inside her chest #is bc if she tore her heart out i wouldnt be able to put my head on her chest and hear her heartbeat anymore.#well Sometimes she just gets too overwhelmed and tears it out but once she remembers that she just shoves it back in her chest #and its just like nothing ever happened #if chris can do that with his waist and grow extra arms then happy is allowed to put her heart back all nonchalantly like that #but then what's cake babby's Thing #she just eats whatever amount of food she wants??idk #the monochrome trio can just do some cool stuff i guess #who cares abt the monochrome trio doing cool stuff. lets talk abt the mmd lesbians i made #i um love her!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#thats my girlfriend babey...................#happy girl #oh also i found out how to put the wings up on her mmd model :)!!#OH ALSO I GAVE HER HEART EYES BC THATS GAY #im just sleebing bc i got Not Enough hours of sleep last night #im done talking. posting images time now

My last chapter of 'You gotta be/leave it to lammy' had a bunch of head-canons about dog and cat culture in PaRappa's world. Do you have any similar head canons? (For like the animal people in general, doesn't even have to be for PaRappa and Lammy.)

ohmigosh YEs i LOV ideas like this!! i have so many that i just never get to show off or talk about

first things first idea. Herbicide can absolutely work on Plant Peeps so they gotta watch out for that

with that done and said. comprehensive list under the cut:

i think dogs and some other animals are chocolate intolerant. hence why PaRappa had the shits when he ate that cake

cats deal with their claws by constantly having to have a nail trimmer around, and rodents chomp on ice to keep their teeth down if need be

sheep and goats have an instinctual want to headbutt things. sometimes people. sometimes people they care about.

it's considered a courtesy to allow sea creatures and amphibians to get free water whenever they want no matter what

dogs are social animals. so much so that they gotta have a group of friends. if they dont they'll how at night to desperately shout out "YO WASSUP LET'S BE FRIENDS"

horses are one of the few animals that are always 'feral' but its considered A Very Rude Move to treat them as such. so the expression is The Horse In The Room since people dont want to confront a horse tearin up the place

i think feral animals are a weird topic in this universe. They exist and hang around anywhere they're allowed to. i imagine the ones who wanna have a job and stuff experience troubles...

Parthenogenesis happens to all fauna except mammals. And some species grow up faster than others. (example: i headcanon Cheap Cheap having hundreds of grown chicken babbies she had by herself who all have successful criminal and/or cooking careers)

Robots dont eat food. They might make it though. Yet dont bug them for stuff theyre programmed for, its demeaning. Let them do what they want instead or wait for them to offer you

Birds are immune to spiciness. i imagine it took Cheap Cheap years to stop accidentally sending taste testers to the hospital because she put a gallon of Tabasco instead of a gram (she couldnt taste the difference)

to end this list. I think hybrids do exist in the PaRappa universe! Purebreds have their own set 'look' while the ones who deviate from these would be considered hybrids. (Example would be Cats. the typical shape is like Katy Kat - boomerang looking thing. Hybrid cats could include Groober, or Matt Major from MMMM.)

i could absolutely go more in depth on any of these if need be (especially the hybrid species stuff because i like talking thinking about it), and im sure i have even more ideas i just cant remember rn.

Headcanons for the Gay Crusaders(the avatars)

So I got headcanons for the avatars' personality and their relationships with one another so hope these are good

Dr. Smolder Bravestone

Stereotypical videogame leader boi

Barely shows emotion

Takes every statement too seriously

"Why is the cradle in a treetop?" "No one knows." "Irresponsible parenting"

Smolders 24/7

His friends worry about it a lot

Obligatory tragic backstory(can we appreciate the fact that his dad is just Dwayne with a wig and moustache)

Probably has a lot boomer energy

Dr. Smolder "(sobbing)the fuck is a boomer" Bravestone

He's kinda like Logan from Sanders Sides

Can carry any of the crew

Tho he carries Frank the most cause he smol

Are they gay or queer platonic?

The world may never know

Probs gives good hugs

What is he a doctor of?

I've decided he's a paleontologist

You mention dinosaur once? You have just doomed yourself. Now he won't stfu about dinosaurs

Makes fun of Franklin and Shelly being big nerds but doesn't shut up about dinos

Ruby Roundhouse

Stereotypical femme fatale? Mayhaps

Also has obligatory tragic backstory

Runs on sarcasm

Probs bisexual

Denies it but has a really good singing voice

Doesn't take no bull from anyone

You hurt her friends, she actually murders you

Punch first, ask questions later

She thinks the crew are all dumbasses, but they're HER dumbasses

She's an intimidating woman but once you put a snake in her vicinity, she freaks the fuck

Shows disgust over affection but secretly likes it

World's biggest tsundere

Her and Shelly are besties

Broods often

Best way to bond with her is through sparring

Or dancing

Gets into a lot of arguments with Ming. Sometimes for no reason

Ming: H- Ruby: D O N' T

Franklin Finbar

Mom friend

Actual coward

Usually tries to pussy out once last mission rolls in

But Shelly smacks him and forces him to stay

Can't shut the fuck up about animals

It's not that annoying since all their missions involves animals

But it does get annoying eventually especially on long plane rides

Ming almost went mad because of him

When he's angry at the crew, he gives out the animal information really slowly

Sometimes voice of reason and sometimes he's not

Depends on how he feels that day

A N G E R Y

The reason why he doesn't like cake is cause he almost choked on one and was traumatized for life

Has known Bravestone since they was babby

They know each other like the back of their hand

The fight like a married couple

Sometimes he thinks he's the most useless team member but then remembers Shelly's existence and feels better

He doesn't have a good relationship with Shelly

They tell at each other a lot

He was born with the ability to speak to animals so if you ask him how he's able to talk to them, he couldn't tell you

He's baby of the group

Professor Shelly Oberon

You might think that he's a self conscious boi but nooOOOPE

He's the most confident bitch on this planet

He thinks he's fly as hell and he will make you know it

(I mean he ain't wrong)

Gay gremlin

Very effeminate

Does things purely out of spite

You piss him off? Good luck, now an entire day has been dedicated to him doing the exact opposite of what you want him to do

He has done this at least once with every team member even with his boyf Seaplane

He loves Seaplane with all his might

but you know sometimes a bitch can get annoying

This spitefulness is way fucking worse with Frank

It's a never ending war

Very affectionate towards all of his friends

This even applies to Franklin even tho they don't get along that much

Gives bear hugs

Has actual functioning brain cells but never uses them

The heat can actually go fuck itself

He almost fucking died in the desert just because of how long they had been there

Gives Seaplane daily heart attacks

Loses balance a lot

His ankle is sprained almost every week

He doesn't feel pain in that ankle anymore because of that

Will do anything for Seaplane

Almost dying of a heat stroke? Just to get Seaplane back from enchanted mummies that wanna eat them

He knows how to draw

I mean like he's the map guy and knows geometry, he knows how to draw

He mostly draws his friends

Seaplane is the most commonly drawn out of all of them cause he's transparent at this point

The crew sometimes be like "do you even contribute this fucking team?!?!" and he's all like "Well if it weren't for me y'all bitches would still be lost in level 1 so I'm really important"

He knows his worth

Jefferson Seaplane McDonough

Honestly he doesn't even know how he got into this mess

He gives these random people rides and somehow now he's glued to them for life

Judges them all immensely

Bicon of the century

He tries to act cool and he sometimes is

But for the most part he's a nervous wreck

Idk how he even got a plane license

Oh well

Had a pet horse when he was babby so he knows how to handle horses

Can make margaritas in his sleep

He's the only one who actually appreciates Shelly's job

I mean he's pilot so he kinda needs to know where he's going and maps are great for that

He really likes Shelly's hugs

Cause they're so tight and full of love and those are exactly what are on his prescription medication for his anxiety

So when he's anxious, he just asks for a hug from Shelly

The only time he could just ignore his anxiety is whenever Shelly is in danger

They really care about each other ok guys?

Really bad at flirting

Tried to flirt with Shelly but tripped half way through

Other than Shelly, he gets along the best with Ruby

They judge their teammates as a bonding tool

Yo put on some good music and give everyone one of Seaplane's margaritas to everyone, the whole gang be dancing

Everyone has a good time when it comes to Seaplane's margaritas cause they're just that fucking good

Ming Fleetfoot

Gremlin

That's it, that's her entire personality

Probs a lesbian

Don't put her and Shelly in the same room

Cause if you do the world would implode

They're too powerful together

Is purposely annoying just to have peeps distracted while she stills her stuff

She's a total badass and 100% confident in herself but once someone big comes in she's like

Ming.exe has stopped working

Deadly allergic to pollen

So she doesn't really like being around vegetation

"We irritatin'"- Ming and Shelly

Is kinda sad that Ruby doesn't like her that much cause she thinks she's really cool

Like she can take out men with dancing?

Absolute legend

She really likes monkey

We don't know why but she does

Has lock in her pocket with a key and sometimes just

Lock and unlock the lock

The gang get kinda annoyed but she don't care

That's it. Hope they were any good

So yesterday was Results Day in the UK

Sorry this post should have come out yesterday i am a Silly Billy (TM)

If you’re a little babby A Level student and you got into your first choice university, well done! Have a glass of Pimms, cut yourself some cake, have a dance, give yourself a warm hug. (But don’t rest on your laurels.)

If you’re a little babby A Level student and you didn’t get into your first choice university, or you were meant to get AAAA and instead you got YMCA, you’re still valid and so is the knowledge and the skills you gained at school. You still learned, even if what you learned was “I love learning, I hate exams” or “I love learning but I want to use my skills practically” or “no-one will care about that fail grade when I Conquer The World”. Have a glass of Pimms, cut yourself some cake, have a dance, give yourself a warm hug. Your feelings of sadness are valid, but if you don’t feel particularly sad or disappointed (or you actually feel relieved because maybe you didn’t actually like your first choice and you applied because of external expectations) that’s also valid too! Results day is not a day for making impulsive decisions, and I doubt today is either. Have a rest. You deserve to rest.

My results day several years ago was... *laughs hysterically* not very good. But I’m fine now! Things got better. Then things got worse. Then they got better again.

That’s the ebb and flow of life.

#results day #i love you all #a levels #a level results #tagging everyone in scotland #and all my 18 yo followers

Never ever feel like you have to play down your problems because “others have it worse”. You’ve had a hard time of it lately love but hopefully things will start looking up for you again soon. Chin up babby x

Hiya!

I don't know who it was that sent me this; whether I've talked to you before, or know you well, or if you just saw me worried and sent a message of support. But this really, really helped me last night.

I took a breath, I wrote down everything I'd have to do to get this sorted. I included "have a hot chocolate", "wash your face", "sleep". I found a bank account which, if I transfer to, will give me an overdraft which means my finances are going to be okay.

I messaged my tutor for this morning's class; he was super understanding if I needed to miss anything, and just wanted to know that I was okay after the carbon monoxide leak. I called up Eon again; had to call about 6 times to get through and was on hold for three hours, but got it sorted. They're coming tomorrow morning to install the boiler, and on Saturday to sort the electrics.

I've still got to chair a meeting tomorrow afternoon, but I now have a wee bit of time to prepare and I've let the rest of the class know about what's happened, so if I'm missing anything out they'll understand and be able to take up the weight.

Now I can relax a wee bit: I'm gonna go to Lidl, cook myself a nice meal, get some work done, go to the gym, and put a wash on. Tomorrow, I'm baking my cousin a cake for her 21st.

Genuinely, this helped so much. Your message centred me; gave me a second to breath, before I could take some action.

Thank you❤Xxx

You thought I'm going to ask about dmc do you? NAY! For the ask meme, Yakuza 0

OOOOOOOOOH THANK YOU AII!!! I’m always DTTAY. Down To Talk About Yakuzies. 😤😤

001 | Send me a fandom and I will tell you my:

Favorite character: GORO MAJIMA. Second place goes to Taiga Saejima, both of those boys are so presh to me. And even though I haven’t played Y7, I think I’m really going to like Ichiban. 😌👉👈 I mean it’s kind of in his name. My Ichiban fave....

Least Favorite character: 🤔 There are a couple that I’m not fond of, but I think Sohei Dojima takes the cake. Can’t beat the OG bastard, I guess.

5 Favorite ships (canon or non-canon): There’s Akiyama/Hana, and that’s actually it, as far as ships go for me. 🤣 I’m constantly bouncing between whether or not I ship Majima/Saejima, because I feel like their dynamic is better suited to platonic than romantic. Same thing with Majima/Kiryu. Kiryu/Kaoru was really cute though!! Overall, I don’t think I associate ships/care much for ships in this series lol.

Character I find most attractive: Surprisingly(?!), it’s Akiyama. 🤣🤣 Got a thing for the scruffy, hobo ass lookin’ men, I suppose.

Character I would marry: Akiyama, Kiryu, or Saejima. Majima is my bae, but I can’t match his chaotic flair. 😔

Character I would be best friends with: THE BASEBALL BOI FROM YAKUZA 5. SHINADA WAS CUTE AF AND HIS END CUTSCENE MADE ME CRY LET HIM HAVE FRIENDS AND FEEL LOVED!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😤😤

a random thought: This series is what made me make Punchy what she is. ALSO LOCALISE ISHIN YOU COWARDS.

An unpopular opinion: It isn’t unpopular by any means I think, but this is all I got: Yakuza 0 is a fantastic entry point into a very long running, hard to follow series, but to really understand why that game is so important for Kiryu and Majima’s characters, you should play Yakuza 1, 2 and maaaaybe 3 first. 0 is a prequel and paves the way for their characters for the rest of the series. It’s absolutely fine if you don’t, but I think having that extra context makes the game far more meaningful.

My Canon OTP: Let’s just say Akiyama/Hana lsfdlkh. They’re not handled well at all, but I have a soft spot for them. Especially with that one scene they have in Dead Souls.

My Non-canon OTP: Probably the above too because the game keeps skirting around it by making Akiyama not notice THE FEELINGS.

Most Badass Character: This is Yakuza, basically every damn protag you play as is a badass. HOWEVER. I think Kiryu sorta takes the cake for this one. Don’t make me post the gif where he slowly turns around completely unphased after some dude breaks a bottle over his head.

Most Epic Villain: ......Kuze? The guy had like 4(??!) boss fights, and the most BANGING THEME.

Pairing I am not a fan of: *BIG SHRUG* LMAO

Character I feel the writers screwed up (in one way or another): Probably Mirei from Yakuza 5. A lot of the female characters kind of get shrugged off, and it sucks.

Favourite Friendship: Majima&Kiryu, Majima&Saejima. You can pry those from my cold dead hands. But I guess for a Yakuza 0 specific answer, they did an incredible job fleshing out Kiryu and Nishiki’s friendship. That One Scene still makes me cry like the lil’ babby I am.

Character I most identify with: Daigo. I never fucking know what I’m doing either bro, it’s not just you.

Character I wish I could be: Kiryu. 😔 I wanna beat dudes down without breaking a sweat.

.....no joke, half way into this, I realised you asked for Yakuza 0 specifically, and while some of these answers are applicable, I didn’t want to go back to change anything sldzjkfh I’m so sorry Aii. 😭😭

#answer: shiranyaaww #ask meme #not dmc

{ OH SHIT }

I nearly forgot to do this but I wanted to enter @spykemuth‘s lil contest for the Shiny Goth Cake Lady, so here we go. I heard that the cap is three entries, so here’s three people chosen at random that I’d give my life for (but honestly I’d give my life for any of you guys so dw if you’re not mentioned.)

First up is @faeriefound. Kier is a precious angel babby and I wish that they knew how much everyone loved them, but I understand that sometimes brains are just bullies! They’ve had a rough life and a rougher past few weeks so I hope in my heart and soul that no matter what, they know there are people in this fandom who love and want the best for them. They were my second ever Bede I interacted with, currently hold the record for the most IC non crack interactions on the blog, and are definitely someone I care about a whole heck of a lot!

Next is @pinkrival, the one who enabled me to make this blog in the first place. I’ll be honest with you guys, Rose was not someone I like. Had any interest in picking up at first. Like, at all. If anything, I was wholeheartedly against it. I thought he was bland af and just assumed I had no real opinions on him. But then I invaded Pen’s ask box as Rose Anon, and found out that I did have some pretty strong opinions on this guy and a somewhat unique take on him. I still naively believed that I wasn’t going to “get too deep into his character” but that was an absolute lie, as it always is. So thank you, Pen, for being the reason behind my current obsession, and I’ll enjoy sending your blog into chaos at random for the months to come. :3c

Last but definitely not least is Purest Sunshine In The Universe @everstcne, who is someone I’ve grown super close to recently. I love it when you come in my DMs on Discord to share soft headcanons and we get to scream about our OCs and stuff! I’m generally kinda shy about sharing things about my OCs (which is probably why Avery is currently on life support, RIP) because... Well I grew up forced to write with a bunch of terrible self inserts and it just kinda stained my opinion of them for a while. But I’ve slowly been getting into doing that for myself, and I’m glad that I have Casey’s awesome portrayal or Rick, along with the other great OCs in the fandom that I look up to as well (I SEE Y’ALL. THERE’S TOO MANY TO SHOUT OUT IN THIS POST BUT I SEE Y’ALL!!!!!!!)

Thanks for 2 great months and some change, everybody! I really appreciate your love and support!

#{ooc}; i will not shut up #everstcne #pinkrival #faeriefound #spykemuth #long post

Boots Reads Homestuck Epilogue(s) Part 13 - Candy Page 23

==>

This is going well, despite all the weirdness... it might not be so bad by the time I get to the end of all this. Maybe my stomach can stop clenching as much from the Meat poisoning.

Then again, that’s what I thought when I was up to four-fifths through Meat and thought things were going to be resolved before the end.

So.

Anyway. Reading.

In fact, all she did was tip her head at him and blink a few times, her long eyelashes catching the light, making her eyes look like mirrors. It was disconcerting for reasons that he couldn’t put his finger on. It’s not like Roxy had ever been argumentative, exactly. He just seems to remember someone from his youth who was somewhat more contrarian in spirit than this person he’s married to now.

God damnit... hypnotized, basically dead Roxy is worst Roxy. I need that fucking explanation soon.

If she doesn’t get upset after what he’s about to pull today, then...

John doesn’t know what he’ll do.

Gosh that’s horrible. I wish I didn’t have to go back to Meat if I ever wanted any more Real Roxy again... please, PLEASE, if NOTHING ELSE gets fixed in this stupid fucking Candy arc, PLEASE HAVE ROXY BACK TO NORMAL BEFORE THE END

That... that would be just the fucking icing on the cake, wouldn’t it? I was already upset about Dirk not getting his due. I was traumatized over how Jane, Jade, and Rose were left. But ROXY was fine. Roxy, pretty much my favorite character next to maybe Jade, or a good number of the others. If this timeline gives me an alternate cliffhanger to lean on that spares the others to leave HER to shit, then I’d basically be left with nothing to stand on! It’d be fucking worthless almost.

My stomach isn’t clenching YET, but I’m starting to fill with dread.

JOHN: harry anderson, don’t tell your mother but... JOHN: we’re getting a new addition to the family today!

Pfffff

serious kidnapping

And who said John was just a blank slate with no will of his own?? Fuck you, Dirk. You knew about this timeline and you STILL said it.

Dave and Jade materialize behind everyone, he in a pressed red suit, she in a glittering Space dress. They’re both holding gifts wrapped in spare printer paper.

Look, you two looking cute is just rubbing salt in the wound of the relationship you fucked over, Jade. You should have waited to make sure Dave and Karkat FINALLY ACCEPTED THEIR FUCKING RELATIONSHIP before moving in and potentially pushing one of them out, WHICH HAPPENED.

Oooh, smart human babby Tavvy. ...He isn’t going to want to leave his family situation, is he. John’s off the mark isn’t he.

Dave ruffles Harry Anderson’s hair. It’s nice that Dave is so woke and great with kids, but that really does invite the question of why he and Jade don’t have any yet. There’s still something sad and wistful about Dave at the moment, as he pointedly avoids letting Jade take his hand while they’re led into the game room.

GAAAAHHHHH

Could we at least BE ALLOWED TO PRETEND THERE’S A POSSIBLE FUTURE WHERE THESE PEOPLE’S RELATIONSHIPS ARENT THOROUGHLY FUCKING MESSED UP?????

I KNOW THESE CHARACTERS ARE MESSED UP BUT YOU HAVE TO AT LEAST GIVE US HOPE

AND WHERE’S THE HAPPY POTENTIAL PAIRING FOR JADE??? IT SEEMS LIKE THERE’S NO POTENTIAL FOR REAL MUTUAL HAPPINESS FOR HER BESIDES JADE X COMA!!!!!!!!!!

God damn it Jane can be creepy.

She gained his affection the same way she gains everyone’s affection: she fucking bought it.

UUuuuuuuggghhhhh

...pff stars vs enemies of the state

John, stop making this so stranger-danger.

JOHN: are you ACTUALLY happy about it? JOHN: about... everything going on here? TAVROS: I suppose,,, TAVROS: My mother tends to get displeased when i’m unhappy, so,,,

uuuugughghghuhh

TAVROS: It just seems like a thing that would eventually happen to me, does it not?

Oh wow, callback to Dirkbro abuse. THAT’S gonna set John off.

Oh wow, Tavros knows his situation is bad enough that he’s willing to GO for it. All he’s worried about is the security. YEAH John!! Do your Breathy thing and get him out of here!!!

Tavros takes in a sharp breath before spinning on his heel and stumbling toward his closet. John catches the ghost of a smile on his face before he turns and that’s all it takes to turn the pounding of his heart from terrified to thrilled.

AAaaaaAAAAAH THIS IS ADORABLE SOMEHOW

She twitches her dog-ears and raises her face. Her mouth is a neutral line, but her eyes are burning furiously.

OH NOOOOOOO

FUCK, Jade don’t stop it!!! She’s... she’s gonna put her foot down and stop this just so everything can be all candy-coated and good on the SURFACE without hurting people OPENLY even if she and Jane and all the others are DEEPLY hurting everyone else under the surface!!!! D:

JOHN: jade, i don’t know where you’ve been these past few years, but i don’t think things CAN get any worse!

Yes exactly

JOHN: but there isn’t one, because everyone’s been all... brainwashed by marriage, or whatever the hell happened over the last few years that made things be this way!

Hmmmmmm

JOHN: well, you’re nothing like the jade i used to know either!

Alright, huge blowup. Let’s air out some feelings.

JANE: I let go! I was actually RELIEVED to hear he died!!! ROXY: uhh ROXY: janey wut

HAhahahaah YES let’s get all that dirty laundry OUT IN THE OPEN

......Okay that didn’t end as well as expected. Or... well I guess I KNEW it wouldn’t end well, but I’d hoped otherwise.

==>

Wait, so Terezi and John’s conversation is “in the dream bubbles”? Is that just because he’s talking to her while she’s skirting the edge of the storm in the Void rocketways, or because John’s from a somehow doomed/irrelevant/side timeline?

(Why does Terezi always have to be dying. She figured herself out and how awesome she is. Stop dying. And I don’t mean like the sad walking off in Meat, though I guess that kind of counts.)

JOHN: if she cared about you as much as you care about her, she wouldn’t have fucked off like this forever.

YES JOHN

LAY

THE

TRUTH

(Ghost!Vriska is the only one who really deserves to matter anymore. This “alpha” Vriska just sank deeper into her problems and delusions beyond being able to really redeem herself or recognize them. That diatribe she gave her ghost self was horrible back when.)

Wait, wait hold on

JOHN: if she cared about you as much as you care about her, she wouldn’t have fucked off like this forever. JOHN: driving you crazy with doubt and uncertainty, making you chase her through infinite nothingness until you almost starve to death... JOHN: she would have at least given you the courtesy of closure!

Is... is Andrew talking about the comic here and his relationship with the readers

is this some sort of apology for not giving this closure, like, as if he were the vriska that launched himself into the sun over his own artistic ideals or

hmm

JADE: doomed is not a word i would use to describe the condition of those on this world. JADE: even if my work is unsuccessful, the stakes for everyone here have nothing to do with the issue of mortality. JADE: to frame the matter that way would be misleading. JADE: to the extent that it is my naturally endowed duty to defend the innocent from wanton acts of destruction, from degradation and dissolution, JADE: it is also my duty to tell the truth to those i protect. JADE: and the simplest statement of truth for all of you to know is this: JADE: we are the lucky ones.

Calliope lets out a long, thin sigh from between the teeth of Jade’s corpse. It’s more for effect than anything, as corpses don’t actually need to breathe.

JADE: we are the ones fortunate enough to live in a reality that is beyond the influence of the prince.

Geez, it’s like escape from Lord English’s influence all over again.

They won only for everything to just fucking start over, everything they struggled to stop? That sucks!!! >:(

Anyway, still reading... god damnit Terezi don’t fly off and die for no fucking reason.

JOHN: then what DID you want?! TEREZI: L3TS S4Y... TEREZI: 1 JUST W4NT3D TO G1V3 YOU TH3 COURT3SY OF CLOSUR3

Fuck. Yeah, let’s just keep fucking over Terezi, another one of my favorite characters. Yes she lives and goes to fuck off somewhere in Meat with the villain of the week, but FUCK, couldn’t we get a SLIGHTLY clearer picture of her potential happiness than just THAT?????

It’s like the whole purpose of these epilogues was just to remind us that these characters were too fucked up to ever be happy!!!!

Couldn’t we have at least been left to IMAGINE OTHERWISE?!?????

JADE: not until i am able to deal with the prince myself. ARADIA: and when will that be

The meteor is passing beyond the fall of night. Dead-Jade, standing half in light, half in darkness, looks up at the sky.

JADE: not soon enough.

Ahh. I’m getting an idea of the Postscript’s circumstances, then. That was alt!Callie in this black-hole-powered Jade body going from THIS Candy timeline to go chase after Dirk and help stop him like everyone else, giving her a more powerful card to play than just the adult Jade she was having guide the others. (Maybe she could have that adult Jade FUCKING WAKE UP AND ABLE TO HELP instead of keeping her in a coma. That would be a pretty fucking nice change of pace. Too bad we have to just IMAGINE IT without any reassurance that she’ll be awake or okay for YEARS TO COME, HUH.)

Also that means that resistance fighting is gonna break out with artillery and stuff because Jane is apparently a dunpass in both timelines. Fuck.

==>

Swifer, can you stop swifing?

KARKAT: HOW THE HELL DO YOU TWO TOLERATE EACH OTHER? KANAYA: Quite Thoroughly Enthusiastically And Often

Pffffff :D

...Oh my God MEENAH landed here??? All ring-of-lifeways from the other timeline? I guess the Furthest Ring was outside the scope of those timeilnes so she could’ve fallen in any of them... huh. Heck, maybe the same Terezi who experienced those conversations eventually met the John from the Meat side of the timeline too. And she said John smelled younger than she thought he was, oh my GOD, it WAS that. It was that exactly. The Terezi we’re hearing was the same across both Epilogue-halves. That’s actually fucking fantastic!!!

MEENAH: capisces?

Fuck that pun

(Also Meenah is talking about how they lost, but she was knocked away before she saw the conclusion of the fight, so.)

...Holy SHIT Meenah is really taking to this!!! This is adorable. :D

==>

John’s having some canon/existential ditherthoughts, hm.

He’s been contemplating this melodramatically for maybe ten minutes when the sky rips opens above him and flashes violent waves of red and green across the landscape.

Hm. So do the black hole wormholes have some tie to the cherubic portal device from Hiveswap?

It’s his father’s car.

Mhmm, that confirms all of it, really. Same Terezi in both stories.

A vast cry of sorts. :(

Heading out for a while; gonna start from Page 27 in the next post. I feel pretty good, somehow. The way these two timelines tied together with Terezi outside them makes it feel like it all may have ultimately meant something.

When I got to this point in the recording I almost blurted out, “What is this Dragonball Z bullshit” and tbh I kind of regret restraining myself.

Fixed it.

So does this mean Mom’s weapon of choice is also guns or did she just borrow this from Grandpa?

Never bring a gun to a cake fight. Also, it occurs to me that Dad and Colonel Sassacre have very similar noses. I wonder if there isn’t some blood relation between them after all? I mean, we still don’t know who Dad’s dad is, do we?

This is so spectacularly creepy.

Thoughts. This ability doesn’t seem to come from any of the prototyped kernels. It could conceivably come from Bec but Bec hasn’t been prototyped yet because Jade is still asleep. But Skaia is supposed to be the place of ultimate creation, right? So if the Black side represents destruction and the White side represents creation then perhaps Jack, by getting the two crowns and the ring, now has the ultimate power of destruction, as seen here?

But that makes me wonder, when he gets the two White crowns and the staff, what is he going to create?

This archer is pretty sweet. I kinda hope one of the trolls is an archer, too.

All of the babbies are sent off with something that will be important to them in their lives. The bunnies, Cal, the cat which may or may not spawn Jaspers, etc. Dave has Maplehoof but at no point mentions having a pony and doesn’t have any like horse stuff on his walls. Does he hide his love of horses because he’s afraid that it will look uncool? Or did something happen to Maplehoof between here and there?

This is so cute <3 Although I find it odd that Jade has three jutty teeth here instead of her normal two.

This just seems so out of place, though? Like Jack cuts off Prospit’s moon and then, what? Flies to the Land of Heat and Clockwork? Or is this somewhere else? And why did he decide to fight Brother? Doesn’t he have better things to do?

This guy looks like the bastard lovechild of Popeye the Sailor and Mr. Magoo.

Included purely because it’s so badass.

So I didn’t even realize but she just blew up her gate, didn’t she? I guess when the rules down’t allow you to win, it’s upon you to break them.

Dave, you are not allowed to look so cool while riding that thing.

“The Pall Mall Gazette,” 18 September.

THE ESCAPED WOLF. PERILOUS ADVENTURE OF OUR INTERVIEWER. Interview with the Keeper in the Zoölogical Gardens.

After many inquiries and almost as many refusals, and perpetually using the words “Pall Mall Gazette” as a sort of talisman, I managed to find the keeper of the section of the Zoölogical Gardens in which the wolf department is included. Thomas Bilder lives in one of the cottages in the enclosure behind the elephant-house, and was just sitting down to his tea when I found him. Thomas and his wife are hospitable folk, elderly, and without children, and if the specimen I enjoyed of their hospitality be of the average kind, their lives must be pretty comfortable. The keeper would not enter on what he called “business” until the supper was over, and we were all satisfied. Then when the table was cleared, and he had lit his pipe, he said:—

“Now, sir, you can go on and arsk me what you want. You’ll excoose me refoosin’ to talk of perfeshunal subjects afore meals. I gives the wolves and the jackals and the hyenas in all our section their tea afore I begins to arsk them questions.”

“How do you mean, ask them questions?” I queried, wishful to get him into a talkative humour.

“’Ittin’ of them over the ’ead with a pole is one way; scratchin’ of their hears is another, when gents as is flush wants a bit of a show-orf to their gals. I don’t so much mind the fust — the ’ittin’ with a pole afore I chucks in their dinner; but I waits till they’ve ’ad their sherry and kawffee, so to speak, afore I tries on with the ear-scratchin’. Mind you,” he added philosophically, “there’s a deal of the same nature in us as in them theer animiles. Here’s you a-comin’ and arskin’ of me questions about my business, and I that grumpy-like that only for your bloomin’ ’arf-quid I’d ’a’ seen you blowed fust ’fore I’d answer. Not even when you arsked me sarcastic-like if I’d like you to arsk the Superintendent if you might arsk me questions. Without offence did I tell yer to go to ’ell?”

“You did.”

“An’ when you said you’d report me for usin’ of obscene language that was ’ittin’ me over the ’ead; but the ’arf-quid made that all right. I weren’t a-goin’ to fight, so I waited for the food, and did with my ’owl as the wolves, and lions, and tigers does. But, Lor’ love yer ’art, now that the old ’ooman has stuck a chunk of her tea-cake in me, an’ rinsed me out with her bloomin’ old teapot, and I’ve lit hup, you may scratch my ears for all you’re worth, and won’t git even a growl out of me. Drive along with your questions. I know what yer a-comin’ at, that ’ere escaped wolf.”

“Exactly. I want you to give me your view of it. Just tell me how it happened; and when I know the facts I’ll get you to say what you consider was the cause of it, and how you think the whole affair will end.”

“All right, guv’nor. This ’ere is about the ’ole story. That ’ere wolf what we called Bersicker was one of three grey ones that came from Norway to Jamrach’s, which we bought off him four years ago. He was a nice well-behaved wolf, that never gave no trouble to talk of. I’m more surprised at ’im for wantin’ to get out nor any other animile in the place. But, there, you can’t trust wolves no more nor women.”

“Don’t you mind him, sir!” broke in Mrs. Tom, with a cheery laugh. “’E’s got mindin’ the animiles so long that blest if he ain’t like a old wolf ’isself! But there ain’t no ’arm in ’im.”

“Well, sir, it was about two hours after feedin’ yesterday when I first hear my disturbance. I was makin’ up a litter in the monkey-house for a young puma which is ill; but when I heard the yelpin’ and ’owlin’ I kem away straight. There was Bersicker a-tearin’ like a mad thing at the bars as if he wanted to get out. There wasn’t much people about that day, and close at hand was only one man, a tall, thin chap, with a ’ook nose and a pointed beard, with a few white hairs runnin’ through it. He had a ’ard, cold look and red eyes, and I took a sort of mislike to him, for it seemed as if it was ’im as they was hirritated at. He ’ad white kid gloves on ’is ’ands, and he pointed out the animiles to me and says: ‘Keeper, these wolves seem upset at something.’

“‘Maybe it’s you,’ says I, for I did not like the airs as he give ’isself. He didn’t git angry, as I ’oped he would, but he smiled a kind of insolent smile, with a mouth full of white, sharp teeth. ‘Oh no, they wouldn’t like me,’ ’e says.

“‘Ow yes, they would,’ says I, a-imitatin’ of him. ‘They always likes a bone or two to clean their teeth on about tea-time, which you ’as a bagful.’

“Well, it was a odd thing, but when the animiles see us a-talkin’ they lay down, and when I went over to Bersicker he let me stroke his ears same as ever. That there man kem over, and blessed but if he didn’t put in his hand and stroke the old wolf’s ears too!

“‘Tyke care,’ says I. ‘Bersicker is quick.’

“‘Never mind,’ he says. ‘I’m used to ’em!’

“‘Are you in the business yourself?’ I says, tyking off my ’at, for a man what trades in wolves, anceterer, is a good friend to keepers.

“‘No’ says he, ‘not exactly in the business, but I ’ave made pets of several.’ And with that he lifts his ’at as perlite as a lord, and walks away. Old Bersicker kep’ a-lookin’ arter ’im till ’e was out of sight, and then went and lay down in a corner and wouldn’t come hout the ’ole hevening. Well, larst night, so soon as the moon was hup, the wolves here all began a-’owling. There warn’t nothing for them to ’owl at. There warn’t no one near, except some one that was evidently a-callin’ a dog somewheres out back of the gardings in the Park road. Once or twice I went out to see that all was right, and it was, and then the ’owling stopped. Just before twelve o’clock I just took a look round afore turnin’ in, an’, bust me, but when I kem opposite to old Bersicker’s cage I see the rails broken and twisted about and the cage empty. And that’s all I know for certing.”

“Did any one else see anything?”

“One of our gard’ners was a-comin’ ’ome about that time from a ’armony, when he sees a big grey dog comin’ out through the garding ’edges. At least, so he says, but I don’t give much for it myself, for if he did ’e never said a word about it to his missis when ’e got ’ome, and it was only after the escape of the wolf was made known, and we had been up all night-a-huntin’ of the Park for Bersicker, that he remembered seein’ anything. My own belief was that the ’armony ’ad got into his ’ead.”

“Now, Mr. Bilder, can you account in any way for the escape of the wolf?”

“Well, sir,” he said, with a suspicious sort of modesty, “I think I can; but I don’t know as ’ow you’d be satisfied with the theory.”

“Certainly I shall. If a man like you, who knows the animals from experience, can’t hazard a good guess at any rate, who is even to try?”

“Well then, sir, I accounts for it this way; it seems to me that ’ere wolf escaped — simply because he wanted to get out.”

From the hearty way that both Thomas and his wife laughed at the joke I could see that it had done service before, and that the whole explanation was simply an elaborate sell. I couldn’t cope in badinage with the worthy Thomas, but I thought I knew a surer way to his heart, so I said:—

“Now, Mr. Bilder, we’ll consider that first half-sovereign worked off, and this brother of his is waiting to be claimed when you’ve told me what you think will happen.”

“Right y’are, sir,” he said briskly. “Ye’ll excoose me, I know, for a-chaffin’ of ye, but the old woman here winked at me, which was as much as telling me to go on.”

“Well, I never!” said the old lady.

“My opinion is this: that ’ere wolf is a-’idin’ of, somewheres. The gard’ner wot didn’t remember said he was a-gallopin’ northward faster than a horse could go; but I don’t believe him, for, yer see, sir, wolves don’t gallop no more nor dogs does, they not bein’ built that way. Wolves is fine things in a storybook, and I dessay when they gets in packs and does be chivyin’ somethin’ that’s more afeared than they is they can make a devil of a noise and chop it up, whatever it is. But, Lor’ bless you, in real life a wolf is only a low creature, not half so clever or bold as a good dog; and not half a quarter so much fight in ’im. This one ain’t been used to fightin’ or even to providin’ for hisself, and more like he’s somewhere round the Park a-’idin’ an’ a-shiverin’ of, and, if he thinks at all, wonderin’ where he is to get his breakfast from; or maybe he’s got down some area and is in a coal-cellar. My eye, won’t some cook get a rum start when she sees his green eyes a-shining at her out of the dark! If he can’t get food he’s bound to look for it, and mayhap he may chance to light on a butcher’s shop in time. If he doesn’t, and some nursemaid goes a-walkin’ orf with a soldier, leavin’ of the hinfant in the perambulator — well, then I shouldn’t be surprised if the census is one babby the less. That’s all.”

I was handing him the half-sovereign, when something came bobbing up against the window, and Mr. Bilder’s face doubled its natural length with surprise.

“God bless me!” he said. “If there ain’t old Bersicker come back by ’isself!”

He went to the door and opened it; a most unnecessary proceeding it seemed to me. I have always thought that a wild animal never looks so well as when some obstacle of pronounced durability is between us; a personal experience has intensified rather than diminished that idea.

After all, however, there is nothing like custom, for neither Bilder nor his wife thought any more of the wolf than I should of a dog. The animal itself was as peaceful and well-behaved as that father of all picture-wolves — Red Riding Hood’s quondam friend, whilst moving her confidence in masquerade.

The whole scene was an unutterable mixture of comedy and pathos. The wicked wolf that for half a day had paralysed London and set all the children in the town shivering in their shoes, was there in a sort of penitent mood, and was received and petted like a sort of vulpine prodigal son. Old Bilder examined him all over with most tender solicitude, and when he had finished with his penitent said:—

“There, I knew the poor old chap would get into some kind of trouble; didn’t I say it all along? Here’s his head all cut and full of broken glass. ’E’s been a-gettin’ over some bloomin’ wall or other. It’s a shyme that people are allowed to top their walls with broken bottles. This ’ere’s what comes of it. Come along, Bersicker.”

He took the wolf and locked him up in a cage, with a piece of meat that satisfied, in quantity at any rate, the elementary conditions of the fatted calf, and went off to report.

I came off, too, to report the only exclusive information that is given to-day regarding the strange escapade at the Zoo.

is there anything to be said about the parallels batween the jacks and vriska (sword through the chest, missing and eye and an arm, vris and slick dying on the same page, etc) or is that just paradox space being paradox space

There is definitely something to be said, though I don’t know what it is. It’s also pertinent that Vriska shares motifs with Snowman, namely the 8 Ball and BLUH BLUH HUGE BITCH. Since the Intermission takes place in Felt Manor, the events within ought to function as a depiction of the mind of Lord English – so understanding the roles of Slick and Snowman in whatever psychological story is going on there would probably be helpful in understanding both Vriska and Lord English. But I was never able to manage that, so, alas.

I do have ONE thing to say, but first I have to talk about the Terminator films. There was something Sarah Conner said to a Skynet engineer in T2:

“Fucking men like you built the hydrogen bomb. Men like you thought it up. You think you’re so creative. You don’t know what it’s like to really create something; to create a life; to feel it growing inside you. All you know how to create is death and destruction…”

This line later comes to haunt her son, John Conner, as he faces down Skynet in Terminator: Salvation. As a soldier, John deals primarily in death and destruction against machines, but when he is forced to recognize that a machine could nonetheless be a person, his position is complicated. During the climactic battle, John is forced to bring his ostensible enemy from the brink of death, jump-starting his heart with a handy pair of electrical wires. At this moment that John forgoes his feud, that he takes Frankenstein’s lightning in hand and creates life, Arnold Schwarzenegger comes out of nowhere and stabs him in the back with an iron girder, which erupts from his chest like a fucking Xenomorph.

So the moment John Conner chooses life over death is supplemented with a violent Hollywood shorthand for birth: chest-burster.

Since face-huggers and chest-bursters are the main components of Fiduspawn, I’m inclined to think Hussie is familiar with this particular subset of psychosexual symbols. So with the above reading in mind, Terezi’s sword sticking out of Vriska’s chest is possibly much funnier than it has any right to be – like within the paradigm for death we’ve established (that the circumstances of a character’s death bear some relation to a latent wish), Vriska getting a visual chest-burster can be linked to her getting her head and arm blown apart by the magic cue ball (since both of those motifs represent birth). Also relevant that Vriska refers to these sort of deaths as getting “sucker sta88ed”, when we’ve recently connected the Auryn within the cherub’s juju to the prenatal unity of mother and child? (x) Getting “sucker sta88ed” is thus linked to the ouroboric cancer symbol (69), cancer being yet another cipher for pregnancy.

All of which is to say, in this context at least, is that chest-burster stabs seem to add more evidence to what we’ve know for a while: that death is eroticized (x).

Revisiting John’s own sucker stabbing has given me a tentative idea for how to integrate Jack into the psychosexual proceedings: recall when Mom and Dad shared a cake as the image of John drilling filled the surrounding clouds, and as the sexual tension tightened, Bec Noir arrived and dealt out murder as the simultaneous severance and culmination of their union? I wonder if that makes Jack the baby. Or to shoehorn in an Oedipal trifecta again, I wonder if Jack’s rank being that immediately below King and Queen positions him as the Child to Father and Mother, in the abstract.

To issue a small correction to the model of King and Queen put forward in the Dirk/Roxy post (x): the King is still associated with pregnancy. But the Queen is not primarily linked to impregnation, but isolated ejaculation, which /is/ freedom, which /is/ birth, as elaborated in recent discussion of the cherubs. (x) This is the WV/PM contrast between democracy and liberty, that which ties people together (Blood) versus that which separates them from each other (Breath) – and thus pregnancy versus birth.

Insofar as Lord English comes to displace the Black King in Act 6, Spades Slick breaking into his vault is another exercise in Putting the Bunny Back in the Box? A motif perhaps subtly reiterated by Slick climbing into his own warchest, or various moments of the Midnight Crew forcing the Felt inside of their respective boxes, or Biscuits climbing into his oven… But weirdly, even though Snowman is kind of acting as the law (broken head upon turning back time, castrated arm upon entering forbidden vault), and even though those motifs of separation are linked to birth (x), she’s also the one who traps him in the vault? Which reads more as insemination I guess, with ‘freedom’ immediately resulting in ‘confinement’, and Jack is babby.

Which makes it sounds like the fantasy permeating the mind of Lord English is not particularly fantastical? Like a rote pregnancy. Though I suppose this doesn’t account for the way becoming a symbolic fetus also made Jack a ‘god’, insofar as he now has access to the fourth wall…? Hm

Insofar as Jack and the Queen form a Child/Mother pairing then, Vriska having elements of both could align with her chestburster death? But this still leaves a lot unexplained, like when Vriska climbs into the symbolic maw of Lord English and “dumps” the symbol of her reality out of a chest after plucking it from the flaming red X in English’s bowels…? I think we’re hitting a stopping point, but this was good progress. Thank you for the question!
