Doomsday has no way of knowing how long it has been since she’s left here, and that’s not necessarily because it had been so long ago but more owing to the fact that time passes at odd rates throughout time, space, spacetime, and the Offices. There’s probably some rocket scientist out there who could calculate all of that out for her, but lapse of time since being back in her home office isn’t her primary concern.
She wants to know where he went.
She’s scoured the In-Between in search of him. Been all over a thousand different Earths over, and just as many offices. Thinking it was all a waste of time she almost gave up, until she realized she had actually learned a very valuable piece of information in all her searching - he does not like to stray far from home, and he has no way home, making the Office is his next best option.
That must be where he went - right back where he started. Where everything started. Back to the beginning, as things usually go.
(Cut here due to length!)
Things are different this time around, though. The Office is still dead, yes, but in it there is a small flicker of life. Two lives, actually. Of course they both survived - one could not have without the other, and who was she but the useless middle man? The one left forgotten. The one left behind. The one left to die.
The same story she’s lived her entire life. Some fun narrative she got doomed with.
Oh but that will all change now. She can see them. Two souls - one flaming red, the other bold purple - clearly living within the old Office where everything else is dead. She can see them exactly where they sit and if she has anything to say about it, it’ll be the last place they sit.
She creeps along the darkened hallways, silent as the grave she wasn’t even honored with. No lights flicker on. No voices come on over the speakers, demanding to know what she is and what she’s doing there. The Office is as dead as she is. That’s fine. She likes that. It gives them less time to prepare, but still far more time than she had.
The control booth is still where it was - at the end of the long, dark hallway with the doors that never led anywhere except back into themselves; at the top of the ridiculously tall ladder that extended beyond the ceiling; sitting atop the platform with no railing and no support structure leaving one to wonder exactly how it was remaining upright; behind the door that only stayed locked when it felt like it.
It was there that they sat, sharing tea no doubt. Remaining loyal only to each other.
She’d show them loyal.
The ghost decides to bring her scythe onto the scene. Put the fear of the God of Death into them before they actually die. That would be some nice justice, wouldn’t it? Poetic if not dramatic, and Doom is neither if not both.
She has no need to, since she can walk straight through solid objects, but she decides to kick in the door. Give them a good start, not that they have anywhere to run or hide in that tiny little closet of a room. Her boot lands with so much force that the door is pushed straight off its hinges and across the inside of the room, knocking over the filing cabinets in its way before leaving a hole in the wall opposite.
Predictably the two Nightcrawlers are startled, both immediately on their spindly legs and backing away from the doorway that to them had exploded inward for no apparent reason. Doomsday marches in, dragging her scythe along the floor, blade down, making sure to leave a long, ragged tear in the carpet. She grins at the tearing sound. She regards the two of them with her dead, empty, headlight gaze, casting the bright yellow light burning within her outwards and causing shadows to spring to life on the walls, dancing on this joyous occasion.
“Hello, Cyrus, Aurora,” she says with a grin, making sure to flash her sharp, shark-like teeth at him in a way that could exhibit either mischief or a threat. Considering she’d kicked in the door, it isn’t difficult to tell which. “Miss me?”
She may be difficult to recognize with her sickly pallor, giving off the appearance of wet paper, eye sockets missing their eyes and instead replaced with a hellish yellow light, hair that’s longer and scragglier than it was before along with a bluish tint towards the tips, and those teeth... but her voice is something that didn’t change.
His voice, though it comes through directly into her head - or what would be the equivalent of her head, given she doesn’t have an actual, living body anymore - didn’t change either. She can hear his tone, his accent, his cadence. His astonishment. The waver. “...Thursday?”
The ghost barks a laugh. “Oho, so now he remembers me! Someone get this man a prize!” Her head is tilted a bit to the side and her teeth are pressed together in what could either be a toothy smile or a snarl. “Actually, I’ve got your prize right here,” she says, pulling her scythe off the floor, spinning it around a couple times - taking extra special dedicated care to make sure she hits, knocks over, and destroys as many things in the way as possible - before slinging it back over her shoulder, cavalier as can be.
The Narrator and the Curator stand close together, pressed as close to each other as they are to the wall. They clearly don’t know what’s going on or how to address this angry specter who used to be the other Narrator.
“We- We thought you were dead,” Cyrus says.
Doomsday’s eye sockets darken. “Oh I’m dead, all right. No thanks to you. Would you like another prize for that? Actually, I’ve got that prize right here too.”
She takes a step forward.
The Nightcrawlers press closer to the wall.
Finally, Aurora speaks, her voice implanting into her mind too, bearing the same accent. “But what’s happened to you?”
“...Okay this is getting stupid already,” Doomsday remarks with a scoff. Where her words hold an undercurrent of mischief, her tone is pitch black. She would roll her eyes if she still had them. “We’ve already ascertained that I’m Thursday and that I’m dead. You with me? Okay, good. Might you know something about how that happened?”
She takes another step forward.
The Nightcrawlers scoot a little further down the wall but are stopped by a filing cabinet.
The control booth’s dimensions never changed either.
It seems the two of them are starting to catch on, though. They blink their wide, black hole eyes at her. It’s difficult to tell how they are feeling by looking at their expressions alone, but Cyrus’ voice gives it away. “Thursday, I am so sorry for how you must have suffered.”
“Sorry? Sorry? Oh, he’s sorry now. Sorry now that I’ve got you literally backed into a corner, is that it, old man?” she snarls, advancing on them. Now they really are backed into a corner. “When were you ever sorry before, huh? When were you ever sorry for throwing me out of the control booth repeatedly when I was scared out of my mind and had no idea how I’d gotten there? No memories of anything before? Huh?!”
The scythe, resting on her shoulder less than a second before, is now flying through the air, crashing against a filing cabinet and in a screech of metal slicing through it as easily as a hot knife through butter, sending ruined papers into pieces of confetti that rain down all over the room.
The Reaper continues her destructive tirade. “Or how about that time you blamed me for Stanley not wanting to talk to you after you made him fall off the lift?”
There’s another grating sound and a crash as Doomsday swings the scythe into another wide arc, taking out part of the ceiling this time. Bits of obliterated ceiling tile fill the air and various wiring dangles down like bundles of entrails.
“Or all the times you blamed me for everything!”
Another forceful swing, this time taking out the wall where the two Nightcrawlers had been standing moments before.
“Treated me like SHIT!”
Another swing, another explosion of debris.
“Criticized everything I ever did!”
Another swing, and the room shuddered.
“And then how you LEFT ME TO DIE!”
“Thursday, I’m- I’m sorry- Truly, sincerely sorry- The plan- We had no choice-”
Doomsday’s eyes flash. Everything boils over in that moment. “YOU DID THIS TO ME!!” she utterly screams, so loud it rattles the walls and causes more of the ceiling to fall out. “YOU TOOK EVERYTHING FROM ME! MY LIFE! MY DEATH! MY BODY! MY SIGHT! MY DREAMS! MY SENSES! MY- I CAN’T FEEL ANYTHING ANYMORE AND IT’S ALL BECAUSE OF YOU!”
With every bellow of rage, the scythe comes down, hacking and slashing at everything in her path. Walls explode. The ceiling collapses. Filing cabinets become twisted pieces of shrapnel. The desk on which sits the old monitor and the microphone - where they used to view and talk to Stanley, Stanley who died, who died and whose soul was destroyed, never to come back - are buried and lost under the rubble.
Somewhere in the middle of that are Cyrus and Aurora, the two people who caused all of her pain, including her inability to feel pain anymore. She’s aiming each of her blows directly at them, wanting nothing more than to destroy them as they destroyed her.
Their fault. It’s all their fault.
But mostly, it’s his.
She wants to cry. More than anything she wants to cry, but she can’t even do that. She literally doesn’t have the eyes, nor the tear ducts, nor the tears with which to cry anymore. That was taken away from her along with everything else.
At some point, the floor collapses, taking the ruins of the control booth with it. Doom watches, floating there as it falls away into the blackness below it. Finally, something as dark and empty as she feels.
And then some of the dust settles. And she sees them. She sees them, still standing there, protected by a magenta colored bubble surrounding the two of them. Her blows had done nothing. All of her fury, her anguish, her suffering, the literal edge of her blade had done nothing.
She charges at them again, this time taking clear aim solely at him, putting all of her focus into landing the blow.
It lands.
But it doesn’t land.
The blade passes harmlessly through their bubble shield. Through him. That stupid connection. That god damn fucking connection, tethering her to her living counterpart, preventing her from harming others unless her counterpart herself to harm them. All controlled, taken away by someone who could never even begin to understand her suffering.
It’s at that moment that she breaks. Really breaks. The Nightcrawler twins can only watch as the ghost wails and wails, her haunting cries echoing around them as her body dissolves from human into something monstrous. Her black suit with the silver pinstripes erupts into patches of rough shredded black fur. Her limbs twist and bend and pop into different directions as she crouches down onto all fours. A pair of long black ears, one ruined and flopped over while the other still stands although it too is shredded, burst out of the top of her head. Her face melts away, revealing her skull beneath, which enlarges along with the rest of her until she’s about the size of a car.
That hellish yellow light burns through the two eye sockets of her skull. Her bony jaws part and a sound that is both human and unlike anything a human would ever make roars outward. It is a shriek of pure and utter rage, and anguish.
The black rabbit continues emitting the sound until a portal splits open in front of her, she leaps into it, and it closes behind her.
All that’s left is a pile of what used to be the control booth, and two living souls, one red and one purple, stunned in her wake.
She leaves them the way they left her - but at least they get to live.

"girls support girls-" okay but are you normal about queer women? are you normal about BIWOC? are you normal about disabled women? are you normal about autistic women? are you normal about fat women? alternative women? unattractive women? are you normal about women who choose not to shave their legs and armpits and faces? are you normal about butches and tomboys and masculine women? are you normal about trans women? are you normal about trans men? are you normal about nonbinary folk and people who lie outside the gender binary or renounce gender all together? are you normal about women who absolutely despise and detest the latest trends? are you normal about weird women who unsettle you with their interests? are you normal about women who don't wear makeup, who will never wear makeup, who openly dislike makeup and the makeup industry?

i like ghostflower (hell I draw fanarts for them) but I’ve decided I like the version of them in my head more and will just stay away from the fandom in general cuz I’ve seen some discussion and they just make me go “what on earth are y’all on” 💀💀💀💀
#“miles will immediately forgive gwen when he sees she’s gathered a whole team to save him WHAT#he’ll save himself first then befriend Miles G. and Miles G. will start hissing like the cats when that team comes and Miles looks upset#like I firmly believe miles will only talk to Hobie and Margo after all that cuz they r the two that stand by his side thru whole that#like that take is so insane when Hobie is the reason Miles can run away in the first place and Margo risks everything to allow Miles leaving#AND HE KNOWS#u don’t even need a scale to see who Miles will associate with safety and protection more after atsv#also “miles keep getting up after he’s beaten down cuz that what Gwen told him to do in itsv is ALSO insane cuz WHAT#the thing she said when she and others were berating and crowding Miles for not knowing how to be Spider-Man just FEW DAYS after he’s bitten#??????#THAT THING????#not his mom’s words or his uncle’s or idk THAT’S HOW HE IS???#*walk in the tag* *walk out immediately*#u don’t have to make them the only person in each other’s life to prop the ship up especially in this case cuz it makes no sense 😭#actually the first point srl piss me off cuz that team was only possible in the first place cuz of Hobie and Margo and Miles laying#the groundwork by just being a sweetheart he is#charming and inspiring ppl so ofc these kids will rally behind him and team up to save him#ykno LIKE IN THE COMIC TOO???#ppl just have to take the only thing I don’t like in the movie (miles suddenly obsessed over Gwen when they didn’t even interact that much#in itsv) and magnify it x100 in fandom#if she ain’t a gremlin girl that is trying her best to regain Miles’ trust but it’s a slow process and Miles needs space and time first then#I don’t want it

You know, so much of the fandom bashes Katara harshly for one harsh comment she made in The Southern Raiders to Sokka, when she was highly upset about her mother's death and she felt Sokka was dismissive of her feelings (which he kind of was, to be honest) and they go on about how unfair it is that Sokka didn't get an apology. Meanwhile, I've never seen any fans complain about how Zuko literally says the most disrespectful thing about Aang's culture (the "this isn't air temple preschool" comment) when he's literally the prince of the imperial nation that wiped out Aang's entire culture in the first place. Aang is just supposed to let that slide and no one in the Gaang defends him either. He never gets an apology for his culture and religion being mocked by an imperialist. Zuko is two years older than Katara here and this is after he went through the Day of Black Sun development when he realized that the Fire Nation were horrible to the other nations. There's no excuse for Zuko being such an asshole to Aang but I guess because he's Zuko, he gets a free pass while Katara has to be bashed forever for saying something unfair when she was traumatized and no one was really listening to her.

if dorian didn't show up, do you think louis would have shot minnie?
I do. I know some people think either he wouldn't have or he would've missed so that's why the writers had him shoot Dorian instead, but mmmmmm no, I don't personally think so. I like to think that if he had taken the shot, his shaky hands would've caused him to shoot her fatally.
Mostly because I'm already so normal about the fact that of the Ericson crew, Marlon and Louis are the only ones with a body count. Well, that we know of, but shown to us in the game, at least. Plus, we know it's Louis' first kill.
Like yeah, Clementine and AJ become part of the crew and they have bigger body counts, and if we're counting indirect kills caused by actions, then Tenn has a count... and I guess everyone has blood on their hands for blowing up the boat... but I'm talking about killed directly with a weapon like....... I lied, I'm not normal about that at all, Louis and Marlon are the ones who have killed someone in Louis' route. I'm also not normal about the fact that Louis kills Dorian and then even as he's clearly in shock, he tries to go with Clementine to get AJ, and then later on when they talk about it, he says it feels like bile but not quite and he's glad he has it in him to do it.... listen, listen, listen... I'm obsessed with that.
Anyway, so if Louis shot Minerva, I think he would've accidentally killed her and can you imagine? He's already enough of a mess after killing the woman who pinned him down and tried to cut his finger off [or succeeded] but he knew Minerva, they were friends before the twins were taken. Even Violet couldn't kill her even though that would've been the smarter thing to do, and we know thanks to meta knowledge that killing her would've saved lives, but Violet couldn't, and I don't think Louis would intentionally either.
Speaking of Violet, if Louis killed Minerva, I hate to think about what that would've done to Vi. I think she might've actually left at that point, like what was planned before it got changed to her being burned. I don't think she would've attacked Louis over it, though, like yeah she attacked Clementine in the cell but Louis? I don't know, but I don't think so just because it's Louis and he'd be a mess about it anyway.
Though if he did kill her, it would be a neat parallel to draw... y'know, because Louis forgave AJ for killing Marlon even though he was pissed and heartbroken, and Violet was annoyed with him the entire time... but could she ever forgive Louis for killing Minerva? Y'know? We already have a similar parallel with AJ shooting Tenn, but still.
If Clementine killed Minerva in that moment, though, then I could see Violet attacking her since in her eyes, Clem proved her right.
So yeah, I get why they added the Dorian kill to his route. It adds another compelling element to Louis as a character, but we also need Minerva alive for episode 4; Louis can't kill her, he can't miss, and he's not going to stay with her because we need Violet to stay on the boat and him to be on shore for all routes.
#asks#twdg louis#twdg minerva#twdg clementine#twdg violet#twdg marlon#twdg tenn#honestly whenever i see someone say louis is the boring option i'm just like '.......that's your opinion but also how can you say that??'#then again i'm sure other people look at me saying violentine just isn't for me and they say the same thing so y'know... i can't talk haha#also time is such a weird thing because i look at the entire cell scene in louis' route and like... i'm not even mad about violet anymore#like yeah i still don't believe she was brainwashed like i'm sorry y'all only believe that because kent said something about it#not because there's all this evidence toward it in game like vi being pissed at clementine makes sense she doesn't need to be brainwashed#for it to work like her being vulnerable and easily manipulated into submission makes perfect sense especially with minerva there#it's like everyone was pissed that she attacked clementine and people needed a way to excuse it so it's not violet's fault when like...#that's literally what makes it interesting like calm down it's okay if violet is pissed and scared and behaves accordingly#also my controversial opinion of the day that i'll hide here in the tags so maybe people won't find it sksksk but#I personally find the concept of vinerva and the doomed tragedy of it more compelling than anything violentine did#like i'll defend violentine and i do believe it's an important and good ship it's just not my personal favorite#anyway but then the whole thing with lilly and minerva is so good and louis screaming FUCK YOU at minerva?? amazing love it so good#i love when the soft character who never chooses violence is so pissed off that all that anger they have boils to the surface and it's raw#like... he's SO mad he's SO furious he's SOOO UPSET like he wasn't even like this when marlon died or anything like he hit his limit#and then shooting dorian through the mouth while an accident is just well done i love it and i love his reaction of mortification#and apologizing and YET he still tries to go with clementine he's trembling and can barely string together a sentence but he wants to go#he wants to help her he wants to save aj THAT is the gut reaction he has after everything that just went down#'louis isn't loyal or good for clem because of the vote' babe tell me you don't understand any nuance of louis' character without telling m#it's fine IT'S FINE you don't have to agree and i just have to remind myself that it's fine not everyone likes louis we're okay#this drives me crazy in the best way like y'know what? i love the cells scene in louis' route all of it even the stuff i used to rant about#even the stuff that used to piss me off now i'm just like 'no wait past cj was dumb she wasn't looking at it this way aaaaaaaa' sksksks#that was my tag ted talk about the cell scene thank you

This is probably the only thing I'll say about Wednesday (2022) and that is it was almost 100% performatively "woke" without actually following through with it
I think the most glaring obvious example of this was the scene where Enid's parents advocated for 'werewolf conversion therapy'
Likening Enid's inabilty to transform to queerness but then having her 'grow out of it' and transform at the end of the show just felt like a slap to the face
That entire scene overall was just incredibly uncomfortable at least and completely unnecessary at most, especially with how the show ended and tried to shoehorn in as many straight romances as they could

Kairi's unresponsiveness during the final battle in KH3 is so infuriating and so many of the excuses people make for it are utter crap to me... I don't think it should slide, but at least I can concede that she may have done nothing when Terranort attacked her because of her past with him, but not fighting back at all when Xemnas grabbed her? Bruh... literally all they did was say "we have Got to shove this girl in the fridge no matter what". Lea went through the same training as her and got his ass handed to him as well, but at least he had multiple things to fall back on when that failed (reuniting with Roxas and Xion, his whole deal with Isa). Kairi didn't even have that...........

bg3 is crazy for being a massive $70 larian + wotc collab game whose accessibility menu features subtitles that are present for less than half of all idle character dialogue and almost zero battle dialogue
#succ speaks#not to be the 'paizo wouldn't let this happen' guy but god this is actually insane#like why even have an accessibility menu at that point? i'd rather watch a youtube video with automatic captions#same energy as devs complaining that everyone was making their pcs a white human guy in early access while they had no asian human options#like bro i just want to know what bestie karlach is saying but if u make her mumble with no captions even tho i have subtitles on#tf am i supposed to do.....🤨😡😭💀#baldur's gate 3 is fun but this is pissing me off. like i'm prob not gonna keep playing this solo & only play online with friends#it's fun but. not fun enough to mimic the actual wacky bullshit i do with charisma rogues and bards in dnd or pf#i think i'm also used to having real humans around for ttrpg antics and dynamic character interactions so bg3 feels bland in comparison lol#also because irl i can ask people to repeat what they just said 🙃🙃🙃#joining the mob by accident was admittedly funnier in bg3 than it was in dnd though considering i stumbled into the base out of nowhere#i guess it just falls under ny philosophy that dnd is most fun when wotc has zero actual say in what happens and what we can do 👍#however as much as pf > dnd...bg3 > kingmaker. i think pathfinder is just to true of a ttrpg to adapt into a video game super well#like. the writing in wotr was WAY better than bg3 but still sometimes bad enough to be infuriating ESPECIALLY in regards to iomedae#but the weird ass iomedae stuff is also true in the adventure path itself and plenty of other people have complained about it#but hey at least in wotr the subtitles told me what she was saying every time she spoke 👍#wotr was still rly fun tho no hate to the game in general this is a quick slam of being pissed at bg3 again 🙏🙏

*For my pink astronaut headcanons*
Paulina when she finds out Sam killed Danny twice, especially for the second one when she finds out the connection with it being during her quinceañera
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Pissed off Paulina: the whole killing Danny mess happened because you were jealous I wanted him to come to my quinceañera party!
Sam equally pissed off but is so out of her league when it comes to Paulina's anger: He promised to hang out with me!
Paulina even more angry: He hangs out with you all the time! He's allowed to have a life outside of you! I can't believe you killed him on purpose!
Tucker being a little shit: Technically she killed him twice. Sams the reason Danny died the first time.
Danny wanting to deescalate the situation before it develops into a full on cat fight: Tucker shut up your not helping!
Paulina looking like how she was when she had dragon ghost powers: Twice!

nothing irritates me more than a human calling another human “ugly” (physically speaking). not everyone is going to be attractive to you, i understand that. but there are zero reasons for you to be announcing to the world who you find unattractive. we already deal with enough body image issues in this social media age without someone adding to it. be kind or don’t speak at all.
