Bugvac Squad!!

I love how they connect... ;w;

 Since Kiibo was confirmed to be the actual protag of V3, I like imagining that Miu, Kokichi, and Gonta were considered the actual main characters as well(rather than Kaede, Shuichi, Kaito, and Maki of course) Which explains why all four of them were so involved throughout every chapter compared to previous “side” characters.

 Them being the actual main group also explains why Kiibo and Kokichi are implied to have woken up in the same classroom as well as why Kokichi doesn’t have much of an actual connection to the main group we see the game through.(aside from his rivalry with Kaito)

 Also, I love how Kiibo being the actual protagonist makes Miu the actual main girl of V3. Which is even funnier considering that the writers wrote Miu with the idea in mind of making her “worst girl”.

Hey I’m new to the LMK fandom, why do so many people ship Sun Wukong and Macaque??

A lot of people like the hurt/comfort potential because of their backstory and because they’re just really good counterparts lol. Macaque even makes a whole play about their past relationship, which is where a lot of that fuel for the ship comes from and the whole “the hero and the warrior were like the sun and the moon” spiel that people love using for shits and giggles. There’s also a really strong enemies to lovers sentiment and i think it’s kinda sweet

Personally, I just really like riffing off the divorced energy. To me, these idiots would rather beat the shit out of each other than make up and I really really eat that up. Not just as a joke, maybe as a way to cope with their feelings like “I want things to go back the way they were but this is all I can do”

#I don’t think there will be a /perfect/ answer to this question but this is just my insight lol. I think a lot of people are weak for #enemies to lovers content cause we just don’t get enough of it. and nobody’s doing it like themmmmm #it’s fine not to ship it ofc!! #enemies to friends is just as good and I don’t see any reason to appreciate it less #we’re also on the cusp of finding out what exactly happened between them either in the s4 special or s5 #not going to give anything away but. they were REALLLYYY fruity when they were friends if we get anything more I will die >///< #ALSO I FUCKING LOVE KNUCKLEHEAD X KNUCKLEHEAD CONTENT. FUCKING MORONSEXUALS #step aside heartfelt apologies it’s time for offering you a bandage after a huge fight. can we get some hand lingering on fist content #because that is the closest youll ever get to holding their hand like back then?? feeling their palm against your face in a hard punch HELLO #you’re only ever gonna get them ‘insulting with each other and finding it comfortable because it’s kinda like banter’from ME #thank u for the question btw!! this made me think a lot about what exactly appeals me in their relationship /gen #yapping #lmk #Lego Monkie kid #shadowpeach #doodles #ask

Giant K series #14: you can always count on Jesse 🧡

Okay this episode is a bit different so the text part goes in the beginning! Fair warning that this story is not comedic but very emotional, however with a hopeful conclusion 😊

Change of tone! Today we cry 🤧

#scheduled #giant k series #käärijä #jeskiedes #fanart #my art #FINALLY HERE #been vibrating for over three whole months awaiting the moment I can post this #it is different but still part of the giant k experience #there won't be many more parts like that don't worry #actually the only one i can remember right now also has Jesse as main focus lol #look at me inventing a new kind of jere look. a hybrid jere. jere of the jeres #i can explain #look this comic is heavily metaphoric and it can be interpreted in many ways #and if i could explain clearly what i meant with it i wouldn't have to use a comic form in the first place but i will try to explain anyway #first of all the orange lighting indicates how jesse sees the events. and jesse always sees jere as jere and not as käärijä #it could also be a moment when jere falls out of character for whatever reason #and in a way this could aso be a memory but it's complicated #this jere does not look exactly like any single one of the past jeres #his hair is a clue. notice he has at least three different hairstyles at once. because this is many different jeres at once #the whole sequence of jere's doubt to jesse's reassurance has happened many times and this is many memories remembered at once #jesse was always there and is there again and nothing changed about it. and will always make sure that käärijä can continue with the show #do you get it do you get it

if I made a dumb little coffee shop au of my own and had stanley throw a drink at the narrator, would that be too much or am I allowed to go wild with it. serious questions here. so serious

#delete later #/SILLY #nah but fr would that be unrealistic to do? #it’s in character for certain like I want to make stanley do it and I think he would #but I know you can’t exactly. do that to customers lmao #so would it be too much to have him do that at some point? #like example situation. the narrator is pulling some bullshit and Stanley gets fed up #and he throws (splashes?) the drink on him (cold drink don’t worry) to get him to shut up #would that be cool okay to do. I guess my fear with this decision is that Stanley would just immediately get fired lmao #which I don’t want to happen lol #i figured maybe it would be alright if he had reason to? like if he was trying to diffuse a situation #sorry I know coffee shop aus are cheesy as hell but I rlly love the idea of an enemies coffee shop #no lovers. just enemies. frenemies maybe? sure lol #anyway I just think the idea of coffee shop au where they both fucking despise each other is very funny and fitting for them lol

Hello!

If you're not too busy, would you mind listing some of the things you think count as death flags for Mr. Spender?

There's the obvious fact that he's the "old" mentor to group of young protagonists, but what else do you think would count?

OHH BOY ok so I'd think I'm a crackpot for this but since we're talking about Zack "Foreshadowing" Morrison. I have some thoughts

No harm in leading with the (chronologically) first thing that jumped out at me:

This one IMMEDIATELY made me antsy whenever I came back to it after my initial read, and considering Zack has referred to it on twitter in the past as one of their favorite jokes it's definitely not been forgotten about.

Second, the sheer amounts of near-misses, jokey or not, of Spender narrowly avoiding specifically lightning

Again, not much, but it's weird that it happened thrice, latter two of which had real gravitas rather than an one-off joke.

And third, Spender himself. He's repeatedly shown himself to be kind of a self sacrificing idiot, as well as prideful to a fault. Granted, it's both him and Mina trying to take on all the responsibility of saving Mayview and its inhabitants from their fate.. But Spender is exactly that right measure of doesn't-value-himself-enough (chest footprint aftercare or lack thereof), having an obscene amount of power (enables his loner act + pride) and poor judgement that has the capacity to put him at great risk. And it has!

Spender has not only shown low enough self-esteem to view himself as the de-facto scapegoat for the safety of the town, but also prideful enough to make very bad calls that end up in people, often himself, hurt (COUGH FORGE INCIDENT COUGH)

This is all conjecture, but it's definitely enough to make me worried about him :') Even if all this doesn't mean he'll necessarily die he's definitely getting (even more) seriously injured at some point. I love the guy but he's so far doing a horrible job of convincing me he wants to live bad enough to circumvent at least that

#not art #admin answers #paranatural #pnat #richard spender #pts-fic-notes-and-blog #before i continue on with tag ramble i just want to say tysm for leaving an ask! #none of my friends read this so ive been stewing on these thoughts for some months and i loved finally sharing them #this isn't exactly proof but the hijack possession seemingly being the final nail in the coffin for his and isabel's relationship. #idk it feels significant to me. thats one more tether to support kinda gone. someone who knows him well enough to know he's unwell #he seems not exactly content but fr incapable of not burning bridges as he is now. and considering how rashly he acts he REALLY needs those #to not do stupid shit all the god damn time with no buffer other than Lucifer. who for his measured approach to rick's hotheadedness #has honestly shown himself to be pretty lenient and kinda bad at controlling spender's more (self) destructive tendencies? so he dont count #to be clear i love spender to bits but he is dumb as rocks and has all the self preservation of a fruit fly. it needs to be said #also the lightning man... idk its WEIRD like especially on the reread its the thing that most consistently threatens him! it repeats #sure he gets chewed by a bat and banged up by forge but?? he somehow always comes back to lightning. catnine has it out for him #its something i didnt even really put together until i continued reading the flashback chapter AFTER getting this ask and went OHHHGNHF #which the only reason lightning is such a non issue is lucifer's powers. which belong to his sunglasses and not to the spirit in him #so its not like they can't be taken away he's just got a really good excuse for having those on all the time #TAGS GETTING SO LONG. ANYWAYS. i hope this is comprehensible lol

[iwritenarrativesandstuff]

Absolutely obsessed with Mori's ability to always make himself out to be the lesser evil. Like his power and influence is entirely derived from him being in an objective position where he can say "sure I'm bad, but I'm not as bad as that guy".

He repeatedly teams up with Fukuzawa in their backstory because he might be awful but "at least they both want to protect the city". He kills the old boss but assures the mafia's loyalty over time because "at least he's being rational and not indiscriminately murdering out of paranoia". He's the leader of the most dangerous criminal group in Yokohama but "at least he's doing this under Natsume's direction". "At least he's not Mimic". "At least he's not The Guild". "At least he's not The Hunting Dogs".

It puts a lot of people in this very awkward position because the truth is that he's not just saying he's the better option, he's framed and manipulated the situation in such a way that he genuinely is. And this approach is largely successful.

He gets the ADA's cooperation in the Guild arc

He earns Kouyou's loyalty by being a better boss than the old boss

He earns Chuuya's loyalty by being a better leader with advice to give (also by having the mafia be Chuuya's only home at this point, but that's not related to this post)

He gets the ability user permit by literally just not being Mimic and promising to deal with the situation

Most of the people in the mafia are loyal because as tough as it is at least they're not back on the streets or in the slums or wherever they came from originally

Puts Fukuzawa into this terrible, no-good situation where the mafia is quite literally the ADA's best choice for getting away from the hunting dogs - and he gets to demand what he wants in return

He almost always gets what he wants in return. It doesn't matter if people see though it because he's made himself the best option in an awful scenario. There's been a few times where this has backfired: he lost Dazai in the Mimic incident because he, once again, assumed Dazai thought exactly like him (he doesn't), and in Yosano's backstory, where framing himself as the lesser evil to the enemy wasn't enough because he was the only one in direct contact with her. For the most part, however, this seems to work out for him and it allows him to seize power, gain favours, inspire loyalty and just generally be a really canny leader.

It's absolutely awful. It's absolutely brilliant. In fact, I think it's got a similar premise to that one sales tactic (can't remember the name) where you suggest a stupidly high price and then barter it down to a "better deal" but the better deal was actually just the original price of the thing you were trying to sell and you intended to sell it at that price from the beginning. That's what this feels like, except he barters situations.

How do you do it murder man? Tell me how you keep doing this.

#bsd #bsd meta #bsd analysis #bsd mori #mori meta #mori is awful #but he's a good leader for almost exactly this reason #his genius power is to make literally any situation work for him lol #it's going to drive me crazy that i can't remember the name of that sales tactic... #like i know it's a framing effect but it has a name what is it??? #anyways #bsd spoilers #storyrambles

Lan "I don't give a fuck about anyone or anything except my husband" Wangji...becomes the head of cultivation society?

I know censorship wouldn't allow LWJ and WWX to go have their post-temple tumble in the bushes but there had to be a better decision than that.

#cryptid’s thoughts #he's a worse choice than NHS lol #(sorry but if you expect me to believe either of them would care enough to want all that responsibility...I need some compelling evidence) #yes LWJ 'goes where the chaos is' but that's exactly why he would hate dealing with tedious meetings and politics #he does not care what the other sects do so long as it doesn't interrupt his sexy times with wwx lol #there's a reason LXC is sect leader even beyond him being the eldest #he handles the whole social niceties part a lot better than LWJ #(no I'm not suggesting he should be Chief Cultivator either he's been through ENOUGH. Let that man rest)

Aune, my Dark Urge. She is feral cat-coded and likes speaking to mushrooms more than people. oh also she's in constant pain and mentally/emotionally/spiritually tortured by her murderous urges, but you know. same old same old

Last image shows most of her belongings. I'll be posting the items inside her memento box soon-ish! Both the book and the clockwork heart were pulled from the Horror Trinkets table, though I came up with the visuals. (To be specific, I referenced the table in Van Richten's Guide to Ravenloft, one of two sources for the Haunted One background.)

#here we go again!!!!!!!!! I reformatted it because I finally figured out that tumblr hates landscape orientation lol #the quality is much clearer now yay!! #The portraits shows Aune's most common moods: filled with bloodlust & sad #had to include a “spore mode (aka symbiotic entity)” variant for bloodlust aune because realistically that's what's usually happening #that is who you face in battle lmao. good luck #I made a design for the ritual dagger because the one in game doesn't have a unique model. hopefully it's loviatar-y enough #and yes the anatomical heart & stand was built by exactly who you think :) :) :) :) :) #I really didn't want to include text on the character sheet for accessibility reasons but this was the only way I could think to #reformat it.
