The SOUND THAT I MADE when I saw the reveal page is something I’ll never be able to replicate.

Flats and transparents under the cut

Regular transparent

Without decloaking effect or lighting

Sooooo y’all see the latest @somerandomdudelmao comic update? Because once again it is living in my head, which means once again my brain has generated fic. This one’s ~1200 words and slightly less tragic, depending on whether or not you take dramatic irony into account.

~~~~~~~

It starts fairly innocuously.

One of the surviving technicians monitors a computer as it finally, finally boots up successfully, whooping when the Genius Tech loading screen pops up. He grins and pats the power cable. "Thanks, Raph!"

It catches on.

A water purifier, disconnected to save a struggling power supply, gets plugged back in. It chugs back to life, and the kids responsible for its upkeep cheer and high five. One of them waves at the ceiling, where a power conduit runs overhead. "Thanks, Mister Raph!"

And it spreads like wildfire.

Every time something works the way it's supposed to - every time a much-needed device pops back to life, or the emergency doors close correctly, or a dying lightbulb flickers on one more time - they thank Raph. In gleeful shouts and careful whispers, they show gratitude for the person who gave up his life - and his second chance at life, at that - to keep them safe. It makes the emergency base, ramshackle and barely held together as it is, feel a little more like a home. A little more alive.

It doesn't take long for a few unspoken rules to develop.

They never say it in front of the metal shell. It's one thing to say it to the walls, the cables, the electricity; it's something else to say it to a figure with a face, seated against the wall like a sentinel that will awaken and protect them when danger arises.

(Nevermind that they've been in danger, constant and unending, for decades, and that this sentinel is already protecting them in smaller, everyday ways.)

They learn very quickly never to say it in front of Raph's surviving family, either. Master Leonardo gets angry when he hears it. It's an anger born of grief and loss, painful but not dangerous to allies, but given how terrifying Master Leonardo can be on the battlefield or a bad day, nobody really wants that anger directed at them. Master Michaelangelo just stops when he hears it, lips curling up in an expression too devoid of life to truly be called a smile. It's almost worse to witness than Master Leonardo's anger. No, they learn to watch themselves in front of the family, carefully taking their gratitude towards a dead man elsewhere.

Until the day someone forgets and says it in front of Casey Junior.

The kid looks up at Roger with wide, almost hopeful eyes. "Why did you- is he here? Can you feel him?"

Roger stares back at him with equally wide eyes. He'd just been grateful the computer had booted correctly for his monitor shift, and he hadn't been looking, and now he has to try to explain this to a kid who's never known a life outside the apocalypse. Oh boy. "No, uh- I mean- I don't have magic like your dads do, Casey, I couldn't-" He sighs. "It's just...a thing people do, when things work. Before the Krang, we had all sorts of machines that made life easier, and...we'd talk to 'em. Thank 'em when they worked, yell or beg when they didn't...I remember threatening a fax machine once, not that that made any difference. I think that just...kinda carried over here." Wait. "Not that your uncle was a machine or anything-"

"His body was a machine," Casey says simply, with a pragmatism that Roger hadn't been expecting. Apocalypse-raised kid. Right. "That wasn't what made him Uncle Raph. He was- it's-" Casey falters, expression starting to crumble. Pragmatism be damned, the kid is still grieving-

Rem, just coming off her shift, steps in smoothly. It's not the first time she's saved Roger's ass, both on and off the battlefield, and it won't be the last. "We know," she says gently, putting an arm around Casey's shoulders. "What Roger means is that we're grateful he's keeping us going, and that people like to bond with machines even when they're too simple to bond back. We all used to name our cars - can you believe it?"

"I named mine Red Rider," Roger says wistfully. He still misses that car.

"And I used to sneak out of the Hidden City with my cloaking brooch and go joyriding outside of human cities," Rem says, a grin splitting her feline muzzle. "I named every car I stole Phantom, like I thought I was cool."

Casey smiles - small and watery, but there nonetheless - and Roger breathes a sigh of relief. "What else did you name?"

"I mean, it was mostly cars, but some people named their computers."

"I had a friend who named her phone and just kept adding numbers when she had to replace it. It was Duchess O'Brien the eighth last I'd heard."

"I know some Yokai named their weapons, but I never really kept track of those. It was more of a Battle Nexus fandom thing."

Another Yokai leans in - a four eyed lizard whose name Roger could never remember no matter how hard he tried - and Roger shuts up. She's in charge of security now, and honestly she intimidates him. She looks around - at him, at Rem, at Casey - and then intones seriously, "I once named a kitchen appliance Toasty McToastFace."

There's a beat of silence. Casey has a lopsided grin growing on his face, like he doesn't get the joke but he knows it is one, and that's enough to lift his mood.

And then Rem doubles over, cracking up, and Bob smiles carefully. "Really loved that toaster, huh?"

"It was my closest friend," the lizard Yokai replies, deadpan as hell, before leaving the conversation.

Casey turns that confused grin on Roger. "Was she serious?"

"Kid, I have no idea. Some people are just really into this kinda thing."

Rem finally straightens up, wiping a tear from her eye with a paw. "Ohhhh boy. Oh, I needed that." She turns her smile back on Casey. "Point being, naming something makes it a little more real, and makes you a little more likely to take care of it. The system here...already has a name. We're just saying thank you, you know?"

The grin on Casey's face settles down into consideration. "Yeah, I think I do. I- Thanks. I'm gonna-" He waves at the door to finish his sentence.

"Go for it, kid." Roger waves him off as he departs, then sighs once he's gone. "God, that kid is just hemmhorraging family, isn't he."

"We all are, Roger, it's the fucking apocalypse." Rem flicks an ear.

"Yeah, but still. It's rough." There's a second or two of silence. "Also, if he says it in front of Master Leonardo, I'm denying all knowledge of this conversation."

"Spirits, same."

Roger learns a few days later - from Rem, of course - that Casey has named his chainsaw hockey stick Killer, because it's what his mom used to call him. Well damn, if kids like him are gonna be the future, then maybe they have some hope after all. He raps on a wall lightly, just below where the power conduit is mounted. "I know you didn't have a lot of time with the kid, but you did a good job." He can't help but smile. "Thanks, Raph."

that part in fleabag where we become so accustomed to phoebe waller-bridge breaking the fourth wall it's comfortably familiar, but then THE PRIEST absolutely shatters the fourth wall suddenly and we, along with her, go what the FUCK!!!.... oh my god. i'll never experience another media moment like it.

#that series was so. goddamn. GOOD #time for my monthly rewatch #i've even gone so far as to take notes of what parts of the script i loved the best lol #fleabag

[storytellerofuntoldlegends]

I'm having so many thoughts about Gem. She joins the series with this big reputation of GeminiSlay- but the truth is that she doesn't want to hurt anyone. Yes she carried out the boogeyman curse, but only because the secret keeper told her to. And even during that, she was still loyal to her original alliances at the start, until the curse was too consuming. Then when she was red, she didn't touch Scott or Impulse until they gave up their lives for her.

And then in the finale. Gem is so tired of being GeminiSlay. She says to Scott that she doesn't want to have to lead anyone. Before the final battle of the band vs the mounders, Gem sounds so defeated when she tells Pearl she doesn't want to fight. And when Scott asks her to kill him again, Gem sounds so hopeless. And after he's dead, she doesn't even know how to process it.

Gem is just so. Hrhrhrh. She's kind but she's deadly. She follows the rules and carries out tasks the best she can, with the slight caveat of not touching her Scotts (and eventually Pearl). She can be so vicious, but she doesn't always want to be.

I loved what she did with her series so much, and I hope to see her in another life series if they do more seasons <3

#mcyt #geminitay #secret life #secret life spoilers #ALSO SHE HAD NO RIGJT TO EDIT HER VIDEO LIKE THAT. GODDAMN. #the beginning was so good and then the way she edited scotts death????? wails and sobs #i love gem so much #also the hate shes gotten this series is so shit and i hope it doesnt discourage her from doing future series

I love this man so much. He is the shoulder you will want to cry on. Seriously though, anyone who gets to be Sand's friend is incredibly lucky. This boy will take extremely good care of you.

I feel like I have to keep saying that the admins and Quackity are better than just killing 5 eggs off screen, especially when so many still have lore and builds planned. Like maybe I'm just missing things cause of work but c'mon, stop assuming every event will result in egg death

#qsmp #the series makes me optimistic that things will always get better #which is a goddamn miracle cause i'm a pessimistic bastard #so i will continue believing in the good outcomes until i'm proven wrong

[grapejuicegay]

The diner has been Jim's way to prove himself to everyone in his life. To his sister that queer love can exist. To himself that he is capable of running it without Beam. To Beam's parents that even when they have the power to take away everything he has built, they can't hold him back. To himself that through all his mistakes, if he can keep one thing running, he must be doing something right.

Jim finally acknowledging and putting an end to his long-standing non-relationship with Gaipa, talking to the other person in Beam's life, having an actual conversation about his relationship with queerness and how his views are affecting Li Ming, stopping running away from his relationship with Wen, finally finally reaching out to Li Ming and letting him grow up (and standing up to Jam for him), cancelling the lease could never have happened without all of that.

It's not him giving up, it's him beginning to let go of all the pain he has held on to for such a long time. It's an acknowledgement that maybe his way isn't always right. It's him letting his life move forward where it's been stuck in the past for so long.

It's him recognising the dinosaurs in power and deciding he's not going to be one of them. He's going to be the one voting for Wen in an effort to get them out.

i am an athena cykes defender forever and ever until the day i die but god. somewhere out there there is a universe where apollo justice got actual follow through and it kills me that i am not living in it

#sorry. i am replaying apollo justice. and it has SO MUCH POTENTIAL. #kills me that we never get any real answers about kristoph obv but its not even just that #klavier as a rival was so interesting. because hes basically already at the state that you're trying to get all the other prosecutors in th #series to in terms of winning vs truth. hes really well rounded as a prosecutor in a way that you as the player arent used to #and that was an interesting departure from the formula for aa in general but then they slapped him with a whole DIFFERENT problem #with kristoph and phoenix. and then they just. do not resolve it whatsoever. #even though apollo is literally right there as a perfect little avenue for resolution. and i KNOW that they WOULD HAVE resolved it #if only they would have MADE THE SECOND GODDAMN GAME #PLUS the secondary conflict of systemic injustice within the system and phoenix's role in that. TRUCY. #god fuck ace attorney why are you so good and so bad at the same time #what we really should have gotten is an apollo justice duology and THEN an athena cykes solo game #where apollo shows up exclusively as a background character and athena actually gets to be the playable attorney in more than 2 cases. #ugh. whatever #personal
