#half of it is just . doing impulsive shit (25%)

[gay-dorito-dust]

doing grocery shopping with the batboys

Could you write something fun and fluff please?

is one of my favorite activities.

I love what you write so much. My favorites are Dickie bird and Jay bird.

Don’t know whether this is fun or fluff as you’d wanted it (kinda went on a personal rant in Jason’s a little bit but I don’t regret it) but I still hope you enjoy it not the less. Also thank you for enjoying my Jason/ Dick stuff! 🫶🦦🐿️

Dick:

You go in for certain things that you need and come out with way more then you probably should. (And most of it isn’t what you actually needed)

Half of the stuff you get is mainly what Dick thinks Hayley might like and she ends up only liking 50% of it…the ‘daddy’s little girl’ doggy shirt was pushing it tbh.

Dick tends to wander off when your shopping together that when you went to ask him a question, only to notice that he was gone, you sigh and say;

‘Dick?’

A few isles over you heard a faint ‘yes honey?’

He was in the pet section. again.

You’d have to remind him that you were only there for specific things and nothing else, but Dick would always try to persuade you into allowing him to get something was wasn’t on the list at all, by battering his eyelids at you and saying ‘pretty please.’

You naturally can’t say no to you pretty boy who acts like a man child when shopping, especially if you’re the one who’s paying.

The shopping list you made might as well have been thrown in the bin with how often you come home, only to be reminded that you barely got 25% of the stuff on the shopping list thanks to Dick’s impulsiveness.

However Dick would only use this as an excuse to go shopping again later on in the week/month and do it all over again without remorse.

Also Dick is way too polite to tell people blocking the isle to move, he wants to, he really does but all he does is breathe in deeply and plaster on a smile before soldering on.

Jason:

Grocery shopping wasn’t a favourite of Jason’s but if he were to do it, he’d rather do it with you because he got to be a little goofy with it.

And by that I mean him getting a little affectionate and pinching your backside and you snacking his bicep and scolding him for being inappropriate in the frozen food section.

‘I’m not doing anything chipmunk.’ He’d defend himself as you glare him.

‘I’m sure as shit there isn’t a perverted ghost here that pinches people’s backsides for fun. Now pack it in.’ You hissed as you rubbed your ass in hopes of soothing the sharp pain you felt seconds ago.

‘Sorry sweetheart.’ He’d chuckle as he kisses your cheek in apology.

You couldn’t help but smile as you could never truly stay mad at your sweet Jason, not unless he was staining your carpets with blood from a night out on patrol, but that was neither here nor there.

Other than that Jason would take the trolley from your hand and storm the store with a determination to get the fuck out as fast as possible.

His long ass strides tend to leave you behind in some random isle somewhere. So to combat this from being a reoccurring thing, Jason would just grabs your hand and puts on the trolley before putting his own on top; Now you were being dragged instead of getting left behind in somewhere with people blocking the fucking isle.

How sweet of him.

(If you’re one of these ppl, go fuck yourself bc what the fuck is so interesting that you have to block the ENTIRE FUCKING ISLE? MOVE!)

Speaking of people blocking the isle, it’s Jason’s biggest pet peeve because WHY THE FUCK ARE THEY TAKING SO MUCH FUCKING SPACE?! FUCKING MOVE YOU LAZY BASTARDS!

He will fucking glare at anyone who even dares to lean over his trolley to get something and when you tell him about how obvious he was being, he’d only response to this was: ‘they’re privileged with the use of a voice, they should fucking use it sometime.’

You’re basically there to calm him down before he bulldozes some poor bastard by guiding him to a lesser crowed isle and get some junk food for later as a reward, followed by your magical cuddles and kisses.

Jason hates shopping but with you it was made just that little bit enduring, only a little bit…he still wants to fight the young couple who wouldn’t fucking move in that one isle and honestly you don’t blame him as you would gladly join him.

Dating Lo’ak Includes...

Tags: Lo’ak x Reader, Heacanons, Fluff, Dating, Avatar 2, Gn!Reader, More Slight Angst LMAO

Warnings: None

What dating Lo’ak would include.

Look I was crushing on Lo’ak for like the entire movie, of course if Neteyam is getting relationship headcanons so will my boy Lo’ak ‼

* ˚ ✦ Read below the cut

╭┈─────── ೄྀ࿐ ˊˎ-╰┈➤ ❝ [25/12/22] ❞  

Lord he is so cute.

Like Neteyam, he has a very sweet and caring personality, and shows his affection for you through quality time and physical touch.

Just like his dad, he’s got such a cocky and sarcastic mouth on him LMAO

That shit makes you SWOON

Before you even started dating Lo’ak, he was so stubborn about not confessing and simply expected to keep it to himself.

He’s very clumsy with himself though, and sucks at keeping his feelings hidden

It was only a matter of time before you realized what was going on 💀

You honestly find it endearing how nervous and ungraceful he is around you

It’s very easy to probe reactions out of him, so half your conversations are either playful banter or teasing

He’s pretty reckless so sometimes when you go on dates it’s not the most safe or well thought out plan...💀

The majority of decisions in your relationship is honestly based off of impulsive choices. Dude can’t be methodical for his LIFE

He’s disobedient and will literally do the opposite of what you tell him to do just so you guys can play fight LMFAO

Now, we all know how Lo’ak feels like the odd one out in his family.

He makes bad choices, gets into trouble, and overall feels like he’s second best to his older brother.

So of course, his recalcitrant attitude is a way he builds walls around himself.

But honestly? This attitude we know and love is probably a façade.

Deep down, all he wants to do is prove his worth and be helpful, but all it does it backfire on him.

He’s been hurt time and time again, seeing himself as an outcast and a failure.

As his significant other, you make him feel appreciated and valued, because you see him for who he really is and love him as he is.

For once, Lo’ak doesn’t feel like an outsider. He feels like he doesn’t have to prove himself with you.

Despite this, Lo’ak is still an independent lover and enjoys his alone time.

He has a difficult time relying on other people, and the fact that he’s let you in this much means a lot.

I can see him playing both sides of the relationship. Some days he’ll take the initiative, and other times he just wants to be held by you.

Dude THRIVES in chaos. If you’re disobedient too? Y’all are reckless idiots together.

Is also an overprotective lover. Absolutely will not hesitate to beat the shit out of someone who tries to talk badly upon your name.

It doesn’t matter if you’re being directly harassed or trash talked behind your back, trust that Lo’ak will be ready to punt some bitches into next week.

Imagine patching him up after punch fights omg??? I just KNOW he loves it when you run your hands over his knuckles and kiss them better.

Please comfort my boy on his appearance :((

He’s got a sarcastic and unwavering personality, yes, but don’t doubt the fact that he can get insecure about how he looks sometimes.

Part of the reason why he loves when you kiss his knuckles is because you remind him every part of him is loveable; even the human bits.

You make the darkest parts of himself feel seen; and he will always be thankful he has someone like you that embraces all of him.

2023 BL Breakout Actors

I really hope to see more of these actors next year.

Louis Chiang | Kiseki: Dear to Me

He played a tiny lovesick tyrant who pined for his childhood bff and fellow gang member. I could've watched an entire drama just about him and his journey from impulsive orphan thug to feisty romantic. He was simply electric.

Suggested Role: There's a sports trend in BL right now, and he's so good at the physicality of acting that I'd love to see him play a competitive professional tennis player who's conflicted when he's forced to partner with his nemesis.

Lim Ji Sub | The Eighth Sense

He had to play such a heavy character -- a college student and surfer suffering from depression and survivor's guilt -- and his heartbreaking performance made you want to reach through the screen and give him a hug.

Suggested Role: South Korea does slice of life SO well that I'd really love to see him switch it up and pine for someone in a quasi comedic role. He could play a young real estate agent who starts to fall for one of his picky clients, and they learn together that the perfect home is one you make and not one you find.

Film Thanapat Kawila | Laws of Attraction

I honestly did not enjoy this drama, but I did enjoy his performance. He is so captivating as Charn -- this scenery-chewing, maniacal, traumatized, good-boy-turned-bad lawyer -- that his romantic love interest could not manage to keep up.

Suggested Role: I dunno. I feel like I'd happily watch him play this role again, and take down another corrupt politician.

An Jeong Gyun | Love Class 2

It's so easy to get lost in an anthology when there's three couples and when you're not traditionally attractive, but his character stole the whole damn series. He was so bold and upfront about his emotions in a mature and refreshing way that it made you ignore the beige flags of playful manipulation that comes with courtship, and root for him to win his crush's heart.

Suggested Role: He's actually older (30), and I appreciate that South Korea is exploring more love stories between older men as Thailand conquers the under 25 demo. So for him, I'd say a divorced storyline. Maybe explore the story of how two ex-husbands rebuild their lives apart and rediscover their friendship while they fall for other people.

"Silvy" Pavida | The Warp Effect

Speaking of bloated casts, this series had like a million people in it playing characters of a variety of genders and sexualities, because it was intended to be -- in part -- a modern sex guide that pushed against traditional constructs. But in the midst of all that was a brief performance by Silvy, who was only tasked with playing an aspiring "plus size" actress, but managed to leave a lasting impression, making you want more.

Suggested Role: She's a singer and she's half-Italian. There's gotta be something we can do with that. Maybe the story of a shy singer, who is often hired to record tracks for rising tone-deaf artists, and is encouraged by one to make her debut as her opening act and help her write a romantic duet in Italian for her international audience.

***

Now...most of us agree that Step by Step was...not great. But it did have a lot of Thai actors that I hope to see again soon -- in an entirely different storyline far away from whatever the hell that was.

"Saint" Paramee Matthanadul | Step by Step

Was his character a whiny little shit? Yes. Is he so gorgeous you almost forgot how hot his big brother was? Also, yes. The fandom was pissed his romantic subplot did not get a resolution, because there was so much he could've done with this character if given the opportunity.

Suggested Role: I think he has baby girl potential, so I really want to see him either play a spoiled mafia kid who falls for his mentor OR a rich kid pretending to be a working class waiter at the restaurant he owns, marinated in gay panic every time the head chef scolds him.

Zorzo Nathanan Akkharakitwattanakul | Step by Step

I have yet to watch a proper GL series, but if she was starring in it, I'd clear my TV schedule. There's something so femme fatale about her and her features. She had no business stealing scenes from the nearly full cast of dudes, but she did. Every time.

Suggested Role: I really want to see her in a mystery produced by whoever is doing The Sign right now. Maybe she could play an undercover cop trying to solve a missing person's case in a small town, and her love interest is married to her prime suspect.

"Ben" Bunyapol Likhitamnuayporn | Step by Step

Last, but not least, is the adorable Ben. Who, in spite of wasting our time with the most anticlimactic drama ending, played a character that was an inspiration to every office employee who has been dying to tell their ungrateful and abusive boss to step back and let a bitch cook. He played him with such naiveté and earnestness that it made you want more for his character than a lustful boss who struggled not to abuse his power.

Suggested Role: It's so easy for him to get sucked into passive roles opposite the zaddys of BL, so I'd like to see how he fairs against an equal. Maybe another workplace ensemble comedy where he plays a reporter posing as an intern at a new social media company run by an unhinged mogul spreading fake news, and falls for another intern who helps him take the company down.

[phantom088]

Why can I easily imagine Danny having a huge mental breakdown to the point where he drastically changes/messes with his hair.

Like in my own headcannon Danny's hair is black and white (his fringe being the white part and the back/rest of his hair being black) and like most people on this website, the back of his hair is long (like a damn mullet). And also one eye is blue the other is green.

But what if one day while Danny is just casually suffering a mental breakdown (like you do) and he just randomly decides to fuck with his hair.

So... (yes, I'm really getting into this) he like cuts the longer bit of his hair off in the back (and possibly accidentally giving himself a rats tail in the process) then just evening out the rest of the back of his hair.

For his bangs I don't really have a idea since I kinda like how his bangs style is normally... so a trim or something idk.

But here comes the "fun" part. He decides cutting his hair isn't enough, so he dyes parts of it. Color? Red (cause in most cases, the color red is painted to be Danny's favorite color).

He decides to dye like a strip of hair in his bangs, which is easy since his bangs are already white, but he also decides he wanted to dye like the bottom base of the back of his hair (what the fuck is that part of the hair called?) I guess the area that separates his hair line from his neck (where the accidental rats tail would be).

That be more difficult since that area is jet black, so Danny decides to bleach that area. Good news is the first round of bleach doesn't fry his hair, bad news is in the 25 minute time he decided to leave it in, it lifted enough to turn his hair a rustic orange.

Being the dumbass he is (in a respectful way) Danny decided to do this shit like 11:30 at night and he has a early shift at work the next morning (and also, never a good idea to bleach hair twice in a row) so he has to go to work with the bottom inch or so of his hair orange.

(I bet you weren't expecting a whole ass post with multiple of paragraphs about Danny having a mental breakdown and fucking with his hair... but here you are, surprisingly still reading... you have a bit more to go).

After work, Danny returns to futher more messing with his hair, and trying to bleach out the orange. Much good news as Danny is able to lift out the orange in his hair and not completely fry it in the second round of bleach.

Then he dyes the chosen bits red, and end of story... right? (But knowing me... gotta say... But wait, there's more!)

I throw Danny a cookie (cause I rarely do) and say his hair looks good... but, Danny knows what he did was blind impulse and semi-regrets his decision (but it is what it is, and also, he's still mentally fucked) and, since this ain't a story without Timmy, Jimmy, and SpongeBob... interaction time!

Danny: *Hops through portal into Jimmy's lab*

Jimmy: *barely looking up* Sup Danny.

Danny: Sup... what's the mission and/or reason you called us here?

Jimmy: *looks up at Danny* The Evil Sy-- what's up with the hair?

Timmy: I was about to ask the same thing.

Danny: Don't ask...

Timmy:... Wait why?

SpongeBob: *walks in, holding a pan of cookies/biscuits* Hey guys! I made cookies! Good Neptune! What happened to Danny's hair?

Danny:... Ouch... -_-

Timmy: Great way to offend Danny right of the bat lol

SpongeBob:... Wait I didn't mean it in a bad way! I just... didn't... humans can change their hair?

Jimmy: *face palm* Nope, it will kill us to do so, but since Danny is already half-dead... doesn't matter.

SpongeBob: Oh... wait really?

Jimmy: No!

SpongeBob: Ah... okay. What is with the change in hair, Danny?

Danny:... I had a impulsive thoughts the other night, that's all you need to know...

SpongeBob: *walks up to Danny*Ah, okay... *offers tray of cookies* cookie?

Danny:... Sure *takes cookie*

Timmy: Wait, you have cookies?!

Wanda: Did you not hear SpongeBob announce that as he walked into the room?

Cosmo: SpongeBob has cookies!?

And that's it, if you got it this far into the post... I congrats you for sticking to it lol. Other then that... bye.

Eddie Munson as your older brother hc 🧑‍🎤🎸🦇💀🕊️

Warrings- swearing. Also the reader is gn ;))

ALSO IF THERE'S ANY SPELLING ERRORS I'M SORRY

. TACKLING

. Even though he's like 19 or 20 you guys still play fight all the time

. He has no mercy either until he breaks your arm or something 🦇🦇

. Since you guys live in a small ass trailer sadly you guys have to share a room

. You guys probably have bunk beds

. Your room smells like ABSOLUTE BUTT CHEEKS though. Probably the reason why Chrissy died tbh😢......

. Eddie has been into fantasy type stuff since he was little (heavily influenced by Lord of the ring books). So when you guys were younger you both would pretend to go on all these crazy magical adventures with each other

. One time you guys were sword fighting (aka just whacking broomsticks at each other) and he hit you in the face so hard you lost your first tooth 💕💕💕

. He probably also stole your tooth fairy after that too 🧚✨

. You guys have a lot of inside jokes about those times

. When he was like 13 he played you happy birthday on the guitar ( it was so "good" it left you speechless with this face 😀)

. When Eddie discovered d&d you didn't really have a choice on whether you wanted to play or not, so let's just say you now know a lot about d&d

. Whenever Wayne has his day off the three of you would sit on the living room floor and play for like an hour or two

. Wayne didn't even know what was going on half the time, he was just there to make you and Eddie happy

. This is also how hellfire kinda started btw

. PRANKS!!!! YOU GUYS PRANK EACH OTHER 25/8

. And not just "draws on your face while you sleep" no he'll pour a bucket of water on your face while you're asleep

. Sorry but this man sleep talks/ snores so have fun falling asleep or whatever

. Sometimes you call him "Edward" and it annoys the shit out of him

. To be honest you're probably just used to him playing his guitar all the time but if it's really bothering you, he'll either stop or you'll just have to go in another room

. And he'll only stop playing if you're like screaming/ throwing up/ dieing/ crying/ rolling around on the floor or giving him millions of dollars

. I imagine he gets pretty touchy when he's close with someone ( IN A NON-SEXUAL WAY OF COURSE OF COURSE)

. So he'll mess up your hair, hug you, playfully hit you all that stuff

. Eddie can't cook for shit and if you can't cook either Wayne leaves money on the counter before he goes to work so you guys can buy dinner, groceries or whatever

. SCARY MOVIES ALMOST EVERY NIGHT WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT 🤭

. "Munson Freaks"

. Will rant to you about everyone he hates at school *cough cough Jason cough*

. Dustin is like your second brother 😌

. Will throw you across the room as a joke and then laugh about it

. Gives you his old clothes, jewelry, battle vest whatever, as either a gift or just cause he doesn't know what to do with it

. "You want this?"

"Sure"

* Throws at your face*

. Okay but if you want to make your own battle vest he'll be so happy. Like he'll be squealing and jumping up and down like every other Joseph Quinn fangirl 💀

. He'll spend every last penny buying you patches, pins, graphics or he'll give you his old patches, whatever you need

. If you want to use any of his 🍃 or anything else it really depends

. By that I mean if you're like under 16 it's gonna be a 10000000000% no and if you steal his 🍃 he's gonna throw his guitar at you

. BUT if you're over 16 and give him a thousand dollars he MIGHT let you use his 🍃 sometimes and only when you're with him and NOTHING ELSE

. He just doesn't want you ending up like him is all 😕

. If Eddie is ever "mysteriously" gone for a couple days he's probably in jail😒

. VERY IMPULSIVE and if you're impulsive too THEN SHIT GOES CRAZY AND Y'ALL HAVE LOTS OF FUN TOGETHER

. NOT ONLY DO Y'ALL PULL PRANKS ON EACH OTHER BUT ALSO RANDOM ASS PEOPLE TOO

. You guys make each other laugh all the time ☺️

. If you're fruity (like him) he was probably the first person you came out too

. "Ooohhh woooowwwwww I tooootally had no idea *smiles wink wink*"

. He already knew babe 🤭🤭

. If he was in a life or death situation and it came down to either you or his guitar...... I'm so sorry but 🦇🦇🦇🦇🦇🦇🦇💀💀

. If you're a heavy sleeper he wakes you up in the morning by playing his guitar at max volume

. He'll drive you to school and stuff

. If you need a ride to somewhere else, it depends on how he's feeling. Like if he's really bord then he'll gladly take you somewhere. But ya know if he's in the middle of doing something it's obviously gonna be a no

. Sometimes at night you guys sit on top of your trailer, stare at the stars and talk about life until like 7 in the morning ✨

. Definitely takes ANY OPPORTUNITY HE HAS TO JUMP SCARE YOU

. No matter if you're at home, school, public literally just anywhere (you do the same back)

. He makes EVERYTHING a damn competition too. Like who can get to the house first, eat the fastest, yell the loudest, get kicked out of the store first all that kind of stuff

. Sorry but you have no control over the radio, unless if it's your radio then you might have a little bit of control over it sometimes 🙄✋

. He'll also embarrass/ annoy you at school in front of your friends, whether you share the same friend group or not. Because he just loves you that much 😍

. Overall he might be the biggest asshole ever but he loves you so much 😌😌

.:In The Dark of the Night: Part 2:.

[TRIGGER WARNING FOR ARACHNOPHOBIA, OMMETAPHOBIA, TRYPOPHOBIA AND OTHER CREEPY CRAWLIES!!! READ AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!]

Chapter 25: In The Dark of the Night: Part 2

Hey guys, I hope you all had a Happy New Year and I hope I didn't make you all wait too long on a cliffhanger. Things got a little insane between the holidays and life things turning everything upside down for a little bit, but the wait is over and the helicopter has come to free you from the cliffhanger.

Without delay, let's jump in.

------------

Panic… Pure panic and pandemonium breaks out as Pangolin falls: screaming, writhing and powerless. A cold sweat mixes with the sparking rain-water on my skin as I see what a single sting did to the Brick Spartan. He’s defenseless to the oncoming swarm.

In his fear, Dove calls forth a massive wind gust to blow the menaces back, protecting his eldest brother from being eaten. Mako rushes over to help the fallen leader as Kestrel fights off more bugs. I can see Dove trying to take the lead, but with how freaked out he is and the fear making his voice crack and squeak, his commands fall upon deaf ears.

Time seems to slow as I watch the once well-oil machine fall to shambles. With Pangolin on the ground howling in pure agony and mutant hellish bedbugs scattering around, the team had no rudder. They were all clueless and damn near helpless.

As I thin the swarm, thoughts rush through my head. A headless team is a dead team. I remember the promise I made to myself as I ran from the army I had once led. Never again would I let shackles hold me back, including the shackles of leadership. If they can’t hack it without my help, then so be it. I could bail and leave them to their fate. Steal a jeep and let them be the distraction. Easy as that.

Then the logical part of my brain kicks that impulse sharply in the head. The Amp is still in shambles and needs to be fixed and the one who’s willing to do that is part of this team. There’s also the fact that… As much as I hate to admit this… I’m starting to grow quite fond of this motley crew of outcasts and it wouldn’t kill me to help them just this–

“ALRIGHT FUCKERS, LISTEN UP!!!” I turn my head sharply as a cross between a metallic boom and a barking command cuts through my thoughts, drawing my eyes to the source of the sound: Kestrel. “The situation’s gone FUBAR, fall back! Mako, get Pangolin into the Medi-Trailer! Dove, get a grip and head to the lead HEMTT, we need to book it and fast!!” I can’t help but to gawk for a split second, both in shock and relief. Well I’ll be damned; for once in my life I don’t have to play babysitter when things went to shit.

I shake my head to get back in the game before I get stung. Kestrel takes charge, getting Mako to focus on Pangolin as she clears a path. I make my way towards the panicking chicken of a Dove who’s still acting like he’s trying to take command, even though Kes gave him his marching orders. With how out of it he is, I’m not surprised he didn’t hear a word she said.

“Dove!” I boom as I grab his shoulders and shake him. Not the best way to handle a kid freaking out, but there’s no time for sensitivities. “Pull yourself together!” The bird stammers nonsense and I bonk him on the forehead with the meat of my palm. He yelps before staring at me with a look that said “what was that for?!” I look him in the eyes. “Good, now that I got your attention. Kestrel gave an order, get to the HEMTT and get ready to floor it. We’re falling back!”

“What about Thom-” He starts to question before I give him a red-eyed glare.

“Don’t worry about him!” I growl, my impatience starting to bleed through. “Mako’s got him covered, now do as you’re told and MOVE YOUR ASS!!!” I watch him stammer out an affirmative before scrambling off to the Convoy. I’m half tempted to give him a zap for good measure, but with the rain and the fact he’s the get-away, I decide against it.

The sound of grunting catches my ears as I turn to see Mako and Kestrel trying to move Pangolin while fending off the scittering hellish things. I quickly run over so I can help Mako.

“You taking over?” Kes questions, I nod in confirmation before we trade places. Oh Jesus Christ, he’s heavy and it doesn’t help he’s still flailing about. Thinking fast, I arc-restrain the writhing spartan. Mako gives me a questioning look, but when I explain it’s to make it easier to carry the giant of a man, she doesn’t argue. Kes provides cover fire before throwing what looks like a blast-shard wired to an explosive away from the convoy.

The shard seems to draw the attention of the giant Hell-Spider, getting her off the trailers and allowing us to get in safely. The sound of an explosion and screaming ring out as we shut the door.

As Mako gets Pangolin stabilized in a transport cot and I release the restraints, Kes gets on the comms and barks a single phrase.

“FLOOR IT!!!”

I can feel the trailer suddenly jerk as the HEMTT takes off, nearly taking all of us to the floor. The screech of the spider returns as she takes notice and gives chase.

The trailer rings out with the sounds of Warped and hellbabies being chucked onto the runaway caravan. A stark reminder that we’re not out of the woods yet. A Blink Scorpion almost slips in, but Kes is quick on the draw.

It's clear that without someone on the outside, the Convoy’s defenseless. With nothing but a quick glance and a nod exchanged between Kestrel and I, we know what needs to be done.

Though the emergency hatch on the top of the trailer, we climb out into the darkness to face the monsters.

The rain hisses and spits into steam on Kestrel’s skin as it makes black and red sparks arc off of mine. Bathing the hellish sight in a blood red hue. The scorpions scitter and screech as they charge towards us. Quick to react, we pop the bugs with slag and bolts, slashing them with blades and claws when they get too close.

As the air fills with soot, sparks and gore, I can see out of the corner of my eye something I hadn’t noticed before when the most that Big Momma would move was when she swung her stony arms around to swat at people who came near. Something that’s now plain as day with her running at ridiculous speeds for a creature her size.

Gaps in the armor where the joints connect.

“Hey Kes!” I call out as I punt one of the stinging cockroaches into another. “Check it! The big bitch actually does have weak spots!” I fire a missile at one of the knee-joints to point it out. The impact on the sinewy flesh causes the monster to scream in pain and slow down some, but with seven more legs moving, the hit only staggered.

“Good eye!” The Gunsmith calls back as she starts to focus fire on the exposed targets. We work together, but with the sheer number of babies the spider-bitch is spitting out, it’s near impossible to do both. These babies have got to go.

“Damnit!” I hiss out as I narrowly avoid getting tagged in the ankle. “There’s too many of these things!”

“No shit, Sherlock!” Kes snips back as she nails one that was leaping towards my head. “This is getting us nowhere and we don’t have the right equipment to kill the mother monster.”

“Got any bright ideas, birdie?” I growl. I see Kestrel look at the Rock-Spider-Thing and I can see the gears turning in her head.

“I might.” She replies. “One of us pops a charge while the other coverfires. It won’t kill her, but it should slow her down and thin out the herd enough to break free.”

“It’s a start, but who’s doing what?” I question. “Because if you haven’t noticed, my powers are as useful as a damn ashtray on a motorcycle against that thing.” I hear Kestrel groan before I pop a bug near her foot.

“I don’t know if mine will be of any use either, but I’ll do it. Cover my ass!” She shouts as she starts to shake her head, eyes glowing iron-hot. Probably trying to fire herself up. I position myself behind her, but give her space so I’m not touching her back.

“Don’t have to tell me twice.” I grunt as I launch a few shockwaves to send the horde flying.

The sound of rain sizzling off of her body cuts through the chaos as her body throws off heat, causing the air around her to ripple and warp into the familiar heat mirage. Thank God I gave her the space, I would have gotten burnt from the rapidly rising temperature of her body. Steam hisses and spits off of her skin as smoke bellows from her mouth and jets from her nose.

I watch as I keep the bugs off of her. The shimmering particulates in the smoke start to move and gather, merging to become an entire swarm of shards the size of razor sharp, white-hot hornets. Kestrel’s arms move back into an open position before swinging them forward, commanding the shards to fly off towards the enemy.

The shards almost seem to buzz as they cut through the air, burying into anything that’s in their way. The metal is hot enough to make the blink scorpions pop like ichor-filled balloons and cook the shamblers and runners that tried to climb up.

The metal-bees couldn’t penetrate the rock armor of the Momma Bitch, but to our relief, some of them hit their marks and bore into the exposed joints. The living boulder screams in agony as its joints seizes from the onslaught, causing it to stagger and tumble from the momentum. Anything unlucky enough to be under-foot gets turned into a glowing purple paste on the red dirt as HEMTT leaves the bastards in the dust.

“Take that, bitch.” The Gunsmith pants out with a snarl and a smirk before her eyes cool and her body starts to wobble. I move to catch her so she doesn’t fall off the HEMTT. Damn, the combination of expending a large burst of RFE and the rain rapidly cooling her must be sapping her strength like mad.

“Hey…” She pants out. “Thanks for the catch.” I grunt in acknowledgement as I let her use my body as a support. We watch the monster-mash of a road wreck grow smaller and smaller as we escape. Out of the corner of my eyes I can spot light starting to grow.

Turning my head to see the source of the light, I gawk at the sight that is rapidly approaching.

Bright spotlights, all forming a barrier that burned and scorched any Warped that dare stray too close. Within the safety of the perimeter lies a city that looked like the fucking carnival took it over. Rides made of metal and scrap tower like skyscrapers and roller coasters snake through any buildings in maddening twists and turns. The crowning jewel of the sight? A large red and yellow striped tent with three prominent points, the center its tallest.

I turn to Kestrel and I see her face relax into a smile, the smile of someone coming home.

“Cole, welcome to Tri-Point.”

[blubushie]

Well I'm taking you at your word, then! Round 1: How did you come to do what you do? Was it a sudden impulse/ jumping off the deep end, or a slow and steady march into it? Have you always wanted to hunt nuisance animals for money or did you come by it while pursuing something else at first?

In short: How did Blu become bushie? *chin hands*

It was 100% a result of me losing my mind and going off the deep end.

FUN STORY TIME.

I don't like people. In this kinda way.

"EW. PEOPLE."

People are strange and cruel and nasty and sometimes they'll kill lizards in front of you when you're in year 4 because they know you like them. People do mean things to other things just to hurt someone they don't like, so I don't like people. And there's a fucking lot of people everywhere. There's a lot of people in Alice Springs. There's a LOT of people in California.

And I don't like people.

I'll admit that I got into my own head a lot (still do; I zone out often). And I got this idea, right? The Swagmen of Olde. They lived in the bush with a lot less, er, support than what we have now. Modern day swagman. Revive an old Australian tradition. So I was say fifteen and we got out for I think the term 1 holidays, aaand I was officially a missing child for a week because I packed my swag and disappeared into the Outback. I lived off bottled water, native wells, and my scroggin ran out on day 2 so after that I survived off quandong and witchetty grubs (note to readers, don't go into the Outback without a machete because trying to dig out witchetty grubs with a knife will blister your palms). Basically stayed alive by making my own shelter from shit my dad taught me, or things I read about in books.

Anyway the NTPF eventually put out a chopper for me and dragged me kicking and screaming to civilisation (I was so feral they put me in the fucking divvy van) and it sucked (also I made the newspaper, not the point). But in the 5 days I was gone I just... found some inner peace, I suppose? I was talk of the town and over the next year there were three or four additional attempts to return to the Outback until Mum (and the NTPF) got tired of me trying to dehydrate myself to death and brought us both back to California.

And my California town is bigger than Alice Springs. The town has a population of ~80,000 and there's people fucking everywhere and I hate it.

So I did the same thing I did in Australia and routinely went walkabout to the point our local sheriff knew me by name. It got to the point the LOCALS knew me by name. Half would call in and report me when I was out walking on behalf of my father, the other were of the wildchild mentality and had an unspoken agreement of "Do not send Blu back to that house." (My parents aren't abusive or anything, the locals were just of the idea that at 16 I was finding my own way in the world like kids did back in the 50s, which... Yeah, I was.)

I was given an ankle monitor because I was a flight risk, and I stopped leaving.

Anyway I left high school, got a job working part-time graveyard at Dad's insistence on doing something with my life, and on the side I started talking to the neighbours who know I'm one hell of a shot (courtesy of me recently winning a county sharpshooting competition). And they get this bright idea, right, they've got a lot of coyotes on their property trying to lift their sheep. So I start killing coyotes. They're proud of my work, they tell their neighbours, I start getting paid $25 per pig I kill on their property so long as they keep the bacon. Fine deal for everyone involved.

Between pest control and graveyard and some other odd jobs I made ~$15k over 6 months and I still had this niggling idea in my head of going bush permanently. At 18 I bought my FIRST ute and went east. And that ute was fucking old. Not a '99 Ford, an '87 Ford F-150 with over 300,000mi on it. I figured I'd get to somewhere around New Mexico before it'd cark it because that poor bastard didn't sound right from the get-go.

And cark it it did! But I also learned a few things from my dad, and so I jerry rigged that cunt (which consisted of removing the faulty ignition and replacing it with a fucking screwdriver). I got it started and working again. Got it to Texas, got the ignition fixed, and took jobs in the southwest for 6 months.

And then I got sick of the southwest. I saw the towns I frequented become gentrified. They lost their personality. The mum and pop stores shut down and were replaced with Targets and Walmarts and the land started seeing construction and in six months I'd lost all hope for it.

So I said "fuck this shit" and decided, for the fifth time in my life, that I was going to the Outback. I went back to California, got my passport and all my necessary identification, had a MASSIVE argument with my parents because they didn't want me to leave, but I left anyway and sold the ute and I took a bus to San Francisco, got lost, ended up sleeping in an alleyway at some point which isn't important except to remember that I fucking hate cities, but eventually got my way to the airport with about $10k in cash and debit and I got the first flight to Sydney.

All without a fucking mobile phone.

And I spent every dollar I had save for $2000 on a '99 F-150. And my first night I bought a bottle of plonk (strange buying booze at 19 years old). I smashed it in the bush over my ute's roo bar and I christened her Matilda, my steadfast companion who will come waltzing with me. And I drove her up to Brisbane, and then to Cairns, and while in Cairns I was stopped and detained because of my rifle, and then that was confiscated for a month until I got my firearms licence, and then I had to go BACK to Brisbane to pick it up again but before I did that I met a bloke and spent my last $2k on a camper for Matilda.

So now I'm stuck in Australia with not a dollar to my name, no means of getting money on account of not having a rifle, and a new-christened ute with a camper but no way to pay for petrol.

So I drive up the track, end up heading west until Matilda ran out of petrol, then walked 2km or so to the nearest station who happened to have cattle. Aussies take care of our own. Told the bloke there the story over tea and supper, he says I can help muster if I know how to ride a horse.

Boy, do I.

So I do that for a few months, say hooroo to him after he helps me siphon petrol into my tank, and I return to Brisbane and get my rifle back. I make my way back through QLD, stop for a week in Longreach, then get another job as a stockman. For maybe a year I was a full-fledged stockman and met my heart horse and I met the first girl I ever loved, but then I stopped being a stockman, worked at sea on a fishing vessel for a few months, come back, and ended up getting a job working some pastoral land near there dealing with a small pack of wild dogs who'd been lifting the bloke's sheep, and I start making a name for myself again as one hell of a sharpshooter. And then I got my commercial shooter's licence.

Rest is history!

top 5 gummy candies

GREAT question, absolutely THRILLED to answer this.

5. Nerd gummy clusters. This is more of an experience than a treat. It's a gummy candy with nerds stuck to it all over the outside. the effect makes it look like an atom or something. you also just can't pop one in your mouth because it's too big and too much. so you have to find a good way to bite it in half while you process the various textures. absolutely perfect, an amazing experience. These are best impulse purchased from a store that it's deeply weird that they sell candy, such as Michaels or Home Depot.

4. Gushers. Babe, when was the last time you had a gusher? Long time ago, right? GO BACK to 6th grade some time. You really cannot let yourself go HAM on gushers because the liquid center does start to get repulsive after a bit, but i like to keep a box in the back of my pantry and every once in awhile I say to myself, "it's been a hard day...i deserve a gusher..." and then i HAPPILY rip open a foil package where the little gummies have all stuck together in a weird orgy and i force my body to dissolve a substance my organs were never meant to encounter.

3. Sour gummy worms from a grocery store bulk candy aisle. Wegmans used to straight up have the best ones of these. My bestie @drlense turned me onto them, and I'd pop over there and load up a full bag of them. I have NOT tried doing this since the pandemic, but if bulk candy bins are back I HIGHLY recommend the gummy worms. I think it's because they don't get flattened by being in the slim packaging. these worms are PLUMP they are JUICY they are LUSCIOUS. that's what dreams are made of. I will also just say that MOST of the candy you can get from the bulk candy bin is really top tier. if you need to give yourself a little treat, i really recommend it.

2. Sour patch kids. These should be number one because they're a year round treat. They're dependable. you can get them anywhere and you're always going to have a good time, but alas, I am bitch who—well i'll explain when we get to number one. Anyway, Sour Patch Kids knows what their job is and they get it DONE. Those sugar crystals are absolutely perfect and SOMETIMES if there's an excess in the bag after I've consumed The Kids, I just eat those too. Here's a tip from me to you—the og flavor is always a good choice, but the watermelon vibe is also really great. Absolutely great improvement on an already great product. The tropical sour patch kids can be consigned to HELL. Who the fuck greenlit this abomination of a project? Who tasted those gross little shits and were like "great, put 'em in trucks?" they're disgusting they're a blight on the reputation of ALL the kids everywhere. 0/10, do not recommend.

1.. HARIBO SOUR VAMPIRE BATS. @forsakethesea turned the group chat onto these like 3 or 4 years ago now, and it's become a highlight of the entire season. i only EVER see them at target. they cost $1 a bag, and I FREQUENTLY buy 25-50 at a time and hoard them like a little freak in the pantry. I'm obsessed with them and they're the most important event in my year. The key is that the SOUR is in the GUMMY. unlike Sour Patch Kids, they don't bother with a sour sugar coating. They've INNOVATIVE. they don't NEED the security blanket of the sugar. they go RIGHT for infusing the gelatin with a sour flavor so intense that at the BEGINNING of the season when I haven't toughened my mouth up yet, I can get ulcers on the inside of my cheek. YES i persist anyway. YES i consider this risk WORTH IT!!!!!! the groupchat sends messages all throughout october with "bat make mouth hurt :(" and yet we never learn. we never slow down. we never exercise restraint. love makes us human. pain also makes us human. love and pain are stored in the bat. happy bat season.

chapter rating: T

chapter word count: 2k

work notes: it’s 2013 and the apocalypse has never happened, Sarah never died and Joel has a small coffee shop with her. the reader is in her middle 30s, Joel’s 46. Thank you @wednesdayday for the proofreading <333

chapter summary: You and Joel go on a picnic.

previous chapter

Chapter 2: Touch / AO3

He looked at you from the middle of the dance floor. You laughed as he offered his hand out, his hips swaying into the rhythm. Slowly walking up to him, you noticed that he’s got a little coffee stain on his shirt. “Such a Joel”, you thought and took his hand, he immediately brought you closer. You sighed and put your head on his shoulder, closing your eyes as you peacefully listened to the music. Then you stopped – “hello moto.. hello moto…”

Why did the music sound like your - -

Oh shit.

You woke up to the sound of your phone ringing and tried not to hide your face into the pillow. Well, that was embarrassing, you whispered to yourself but then realized that the phone was still ringing. You sleepily opened the phone with a swift motion of your hand and put it to your ear.

“Yes?” you cleared your throat, as your voice was still asleep. You wished that you were still asleep.

“Hi! It’s Joel, I was - - wait. Oh my god, did I wake you up?”

You quickly set up, as if he could see you. Your hand brushing through you hair, you answered,

“No! I mean, yeah.. But don’t worry about it, what time is it?”

“Uhm, it’s 11:30.. Sorry for wakin’ you up, sweetheart, ruining your sleep like that on your holiday” Joel said, but by the tone of his voice it was apparent that he was not sorry at all - he actually sounded like he was holding in a laugh.

“Please, don’t apologize, I had no idea it’s that late, I should be probably thanking you for waking me up,” the memory of the dream you just had crept back into your head and you could feel your cheeks getting hotter “I don’t want to sleep through the whole day.”

“So what about I give you an offer about what you can do instead? How do you feel about meeting me in front of your hotel in about two hours? There’s a nice park just a few minutes away from your place,” he sounded confident, but you could still hear a small hint of nervousness in his voice “I can bring a blanket.. A coffee maybe?” “I’d love that, Joel” you answered and didn’t even try to hide the smile on your face and for the second time that morning, you were glad that Joel couldn’t see you.

…

The first thirty minutes after the call ended were spent by you trying to wake up. You had your breakfast, brushed your teeth and went back into bed, to spend another thirty minutes thinking about what you should wear. It’s not like you had ten suitcases of clothes with you, the idea of the holiday was impulsive and so was the choice of the clothes that you packed. The weather was nice, it was the second half of the spring. But what do people even wear on picnics?! You’ve never been to any and certainly not with someone that you were trying to impress.

You didn’t even know if Joel wanted to be impressed, he still could be a married guy passionate about showing tourists around the city. But you tried to stay hopeful, it’s been ages since anyone has been interested in you, or more precise, ages since you’ve been interested in anyone – and Joel seemed like a nice guy, he could at least be a nice passage of your time spent here.

In the end, you’ve decided to be casual but still look like you were someone that at least slightly cared about how you looked. You put on your low waist ripped blue jeans with a white top, that showed your belly slightly. Because it was sunny, but the weather still could be tricky, you wore your leather jacket on. You looked into the hotel mirror and couldn’t believe that that was something you were coming up with for an hour.

You checked the time - it was 1:25 pm, the right time to get going. After putting your keys and sunglasses into your bag you made your way to the elevator. You tapped your feet nervously as the elevator was going down and took a deep breath as the door opened. You could already see Joel standing in front of the lobby, his face tilted towards the sun and his eyes closed. He was wearing blue jeans, just like you were, only without holes on them, and a gray t-shirt. After letting out a breath you were holding in - you dressed alright for the occasion - you took another in as you realized once again how handsome the man was. Handsome and holding a picnic basket - the man came prepared.

His gaze met yours as you stepped out of the building and a wide smile appeared on his face, matching yours.

“Hello, my lost wanderer,” Joel said excitedly as you stepped closer to him, the name making you laugh.

“Hi, Joel. Thanks for picking me up,” you smiled and tried not to think too hard about if you were supposed to hug him. But it probably would come out as weird, it was just your second time seeing each other and it certainly wasn’t something that you were used to doing with people.

Joel probably was, though, because as soon as you were close within his arm reach he pulled you into an embrace, patting your back as he squeezed you close with his strong arms. You tried to ignore the way it made you feel, but failed miserably after he winked at you when you both pulled away.

“I couldn’t risk you getting lost again, the park is much nicer when the sun is still out,” he said playfully and you smacked his arm and rolled your eyes, which made him only laugh harder.

“I’ll never escape this, right?” you said but couldn’t hide your own giggles coming out.

“No… But I’ve brought food and drinks as an apology for my bullying,” Joel said as he raised his arm that was holding the picnic basket “ - so I think you could forgive me.”

“Well in that case,” you said, making an impressed face  “- lead the way”.

It turned out he was right; there really was a nice park just a few minutes away from your hotel. Although, calling it nice didn’t really do it justice - it had a huge lake right in the middle, with numerous benches surrounding it. Throughout the park, there were hundreds of blooming tulips, appearing between the green trees.

Joel slowly led you to a place nearby the lake and put his blanket down on the ground. It was yellow; matching the color of the tulips nearest to you. You watched him as he unpacked the basket he was carrying; he brought fruits, tiny sandwiches and colorful cupcakes, surely one of the ones his daughter was making. At last, he put a bottle of red wine on the blanket and looked up at you with a smile, patting the spot next to him.

“C’mon, sit down, you can’t really enjoy the picnic standin’ up.”

You did sit down and let your eyes take in the beauty of the place, whilst Joel poured you the wine.

“This is wonderful, Joel. I don’t even know what to say,” you said as you took the glass of wine he was offering you and tried to ignore that he let his thigh rest against yours as he made himself comfortable.

“It’s nice, right? I used to take Sarah here all the time when she was little; she used to run around tryin’ to catch all the butterflies - there’s plenty of them later in the summer, it’s a shame you can’t see those.” “I bet, I love butterflies!” you exhaled and decided that if you need to know, it’s better to ask now, even though it felt invasive. “Did her mom used to come with you, too?”

Joel made a surprised face and you were about to apologize for being too nosy, when he clinked his glass against yours and took a sip.

“Uh, no. Sarah’s mother left when she was a baby, moved to a different country and haven’t seen her since. It was always just the two of us.”

You wondered if he meant the always in a literal way, but decided not to pry any further.

“I’m sorry for asking, that must have… sucked. At least at the beginning, sorry.”

He actually chuckled at your awkwardness and patted your knee, his fingers brushing against your exposed skin there. You studied his face as his dimple became visible and you tried not to think the thoughts that were coming to your brain. Joel was exactly your type and he was one of the sweetest guys you’ve ever met. But it was stupid to catch feelings for him; you were leaving in two weeks no matter what. His voice brought you back to the real world;

“It wasn’t the easiest at first, but Sarah made it worth it. Anyway, enough about me, what about you, anyone waitin’ for you at home?” he asked and tried to hide the way he was nervous about your answer by shoving the whole tiny sandwich into his mouth. You’ve contemplated doing the same but went for the strawberry instead, so that you wouldn’t choke while answering him.

“Nope, I haven’t had a relationship for months. I was too busy trying to impress my boss, while she was too busy trying to make me lose my mind. She did promote me, though, so I guess it eventually worked out,” you laughed as Joel put another sandwich into his mouth “You know you can like, take a bite right?”

He made a shocked expression and shoved your shoulder lightly - “Are you mockin’ me back now? Still, I’m glad you got your promotion,” he took a pause, as if he wasn't sure if he should say the next part of the sentence, but decided to go for it anyway, “but I’m also glad that you went on this holiday.”

You couldn’t hide your smile now, your hand automatically reaching for one of the cupcakes Sarah made. The rest of the afternoon went smoothly, you both were eating all of the food Joel brought and were sipping the wine. The more you drank, the more you became sensitive to the way Joel was brushing his fingers, or his leg against parts of you. You also became sensitive to the way his smile always grew a little bit bigger each time he did so.

You’ve also learned about his brother, his name was Tommy and he and his wife Maria recently adopted a daughter. She was 4 and her name was Ellie. Joel promised you that during the next few days you would get to meet her, because she was apparently visiting her dad all the time at the hotel where he was the manager.

As the sun began to set down, Joel proposed that you should be probably heading back, as he had to work tomorrow. You nodded but felt a little disappointed and worried; what if Joel decided that one day with you was enough and you wouldn’t get to see him again.

Your worries partly disappeared after he stood up, packed all of the things and offered you his arm. You looked at him confused and his expression turned uncertain,

“You don’t have to take it, but I’d like you, though,” he said carefully and smiled brightly when you did take it, your body pressing against his side as he led you back to the hotel. You were reminded that it really was nearby as the walk was short and found yourself standing in front of the entrance just like yesterday. Only this time Joel turned to stand in front of you and slowly took your hand in his. You could feel yourself blushing and he squeezed your hand.

“I really enjoyed today,” Joel took a little step closer to where you were standing, “and I’m free tomorrow evening. If you would, you know, like to do something again?”

This time, it was your turn to squeeze his hand and take a little step closer to his body.

“Yeah, of course. You’ll text me again?”

Joel nodded and for the second time, took another step closer, this time he was inches away from your face, though. He slowly traveled his hand up your arm and let it rest on your shoulder and you put yours on his side, his skin warm under the gray t-shirt. You watched your fingers tracing a little circle where his shirt was meeting his jeans and he put his finger under your chin.

“Hey,” he said softly, his fingers bringing your face up so that your eyes could meet his, “is it okay if I kiss you goodbye?”

Instead of answering, you moved the last few inches and put your lips against his.

For Love it's anything that resembles big tiddies. Laszlo doesn't think

Everything goes smoothly, Cara just doesn't want to hear anything her dad is up to with his husband. Nero just wants to know where Laszlo is so she can arrest him

Sparse, Laszlo gets plenty on the side but sometimes Love asks for a favor from his bro

Laszlo has met Cara through work, sometimes forgets she's his daughter

37. What do they like the least about each other?

Laszlo's brainlessness does frustrate Love at times, but somehow all of his ideas end up working and he can't stay mad. Laszlo keeps electrocuting himself on Love's horns when the man keeps saying to keep his tongue to himself. Also his hair is too damn long

38. What was their most memorable date?

Some mission where everything went at first tits up and then somehow Laszlo turned it around in a blaze of glory and they had wild sex somewhere inappropriate

39. What other couple would your otp get along with the best?

Maybe Mhairi and Ihn because Laszlo can keep the conversation going with absolutely no fuel and Love is very knowledgeable about explosives and guns and is a fun guy to talk with in general (also both him and Ihn are dads who are concerned about their daughter's/granddaughter's safety)

40. Who makes the other smile with almost no effort at all?

Laszlo forgetting to put his tongue in his mouth is enough for Love

#laszlo has never had a thought in his life #this man was in charge of his country's police system #long oc thing #if amai had known ninida cheated on her she would have come very close to killing him #do not play with those nedian girls theyre mean

appearently Joe said "maybe ive been instructed to make a sign to passively-aggressively shame impulse. no im just kidding i dont think impulse does drugs" in response to someone asking them about the "Winners don't do drugs" King Ren screen on the arcade. Which, while hilarious on its own, just made me think of like, soup group seeing that screen.

Like they see the king ordering them not to do something??? He dare extend his authority like this???? Well no king can tell THEM what to do!

Cue a meetup at the little research office in Pearls mushroom where Impulse is crying on the floor because he can't roll a blunt right, (Grian and Ren rolled all his blunts in the Hippie era, his hands were and are too big and clumsy for this) Pearl is trying to mix weed into a soup they're gonna give to the king but shes not familiar with the plant either so shes also struggling, and Gem is blazing it up with absolutely no problem. Shes a nature Elf, how the fuck did the others ever think she didn't know her way around plants like these

(weed is also legal in Canada. Its not in Australia but it IS in Arizona. Impulse is knowledgeable about the drug its just been so long since the Hippie days, hes been too much of a good boy lately. Hes lost the little blunt rolling skills he had :[ he was bragging about it to Gem and Pearl too and now hes made a fool out of himself :[[[)

Shoutout to @potionofinstantdamage for reporting that Joe quote and indirectly causing me to create this post.

Useless Facts about ImpulseSV: the post

Welcome to “Useless Facts about Impulse”. The title says it all. I am Eluminium, that one fuck who decided to watch every single Impulse hermitcraft season and actually fucking did it, and I have a bunch of completely useless knowledge from it now. AND I SHALL SHARE IT WITH YOU SO YOU TOO MAY ALSO BE ENLIGHTENED! Also cuz i’m bored as shit (Btw i’ll probably keep adding onto this post as I remember or gain more useless knowledge) People who’ve blessed this post with more facts: @bucket-of-amethyst  @tsukinouta  LET THE FACTS BEGIN! First addition of facts: August 7th 2022

-Out of every single base Impulse has constructed on Hermitcraft, 3 and a half of them have featured water as a major design element. These would be the City of Atlantis (S5), iBay (S6), The Pyramid (S7), and the half is his “starter base” temple (S3).  (I count it as a half because he spent a considerable amount of time designing it but it isn’t his main base so to say.) -Impulse has two seasons of Hermitcraft that are the exact same lenght in terms of episodes, these being S3 and S4, both having 57 episodes. -Impulse’s longest season is S6 with 113 episodes, and his shortest is S8 with 35 episodes -Out of every base Impulse has built, only 2 of them do not feature his logo on the inside or outside in it’s final design. These are iBay (S6) and The Pyramid (S7)

-Impulse is shorter then Bdubs IRL. Bdubs claims to be 5′10 while Impulse claims to be 5′8. This makes fanon extremely hilarious

-In S4, the safe rooms Impulse and Tango constructed in the Wither Skeleton farm were called “The Sissy Room”, but only for one episode. After that it’s never mentioned again.

-Impulse’s wife (Ms. Impulse) has never touched Minecraft because she’s an interior designer and would most likely disappear off the face of the Earth if she ever let herself play the game. It hasn’t stopped Impulse from trying a few times though.

-Impulse has a habit of biting off more than he can chew. In 4 out of 7 seasons he’s been in there have been obvious projects that were never finished. These are in order: The roof of his and Tango’s shared Mega Base (S3), A fair amount of The City of Atlantis (S5), The missing farms on the Phinias Board (S7) and the interior of The Candy Factory (S8)

-Impulse’s current keyboard (At the time of writing) was custom made by his son

-In both S3 and S7, Impulse used the exact same floor desgin and armor stand gimmick for his Patreon Monument.

-One of the reasons Impulse and Skizzleman remain such close friends today was because he found a book on networking on Skizz’s bedroom floor when they were both looking to go to a new collage. They both went to the same Networking class after Impulse suggested it and have been glued together ever since. -They absolutely hated that networking class though

-Impulse has had 4 piercings in total. One in the tongue, one eyebrow one, one nipple, and one in the ear. Both the eyebrow one and the nipple one were taken out after they got caught on various zippers, and the ear one was something he did together with his drumline. None of them survived to the present day though.

-Impulse has sold enchanting related things in 4 out of 7 seasons (S4 S5 S6 S9)

-Impulse used to be completely bald and beardless until he grew out his hair and a beard for a No Shave November challange and people said it fit him. He hasn’t returned to baldness since that (At the time of writing) -Every since their introduction, Impulse always carries a totem on him. Although he has a resource pack that makes the totem invisible in first person so it won’t block up the screen as much.

-His Guardian Goodies shop building in S7 is an exact replica of a Guardian “shop” (everything was free) xB designed in S3

-Impulse has won every single “How to Kill” compitition, and with the exact same concept to boot. In “How to Kill a Doc” he made a bunch of traps that looked like the final blow but weren’t, instead having the killing strike be deliver by Impulse himself. In “How to Kill a Tango” he did the exact same thing, although the final blow should have been delt by a Magma Cube instead. Both of these killing machines also share similar surprises. Both involve fire charges (One from dispensers, one from a live Ghast), anvil launchers and TNT. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it i suppose?

-Impulse actually bought the “copyright rights” to the “i” brand from Iskall in S6 so he could keep iTrade open without confusion. Never got something similar from iJevin thought.

-When S6 updated to the villager update, Impulse managed to obtain a glitched Farmer Villager who never locked up his trades no matter how much you traded with him. Although he did lose a fair amount of villagers in iTrade too, so it was more a soul for a soul.

-The only season Impulse was part of that never had Elytras was ironically S3, the one with amplified terrain.

-The first time Impulse properly tested out the Elytra, it lagged so bad he died from fall damage by falling into Xisumas Guardian Farm. The elytra refused to open.

-Impulse and Tango has had an agreement since Impulse joined in S3 that they can take certain resources from each other’s storages and farms without asking before hand. They call this “Mi casa, Ti casa” or “My house, your house”.

-In 4 out of 7 seasons, Impulse has had at least one entire video that centers around either a request from xB, or featuring xB himself. (S3 S4 S5 S7)

-The “SV” in impulseSV could be read as “impulsive” but it actually stands for Impulse’s IRL initials

-Impulse was introduced to Minecraft via his son, who wanted to get into gaming. Impulse mostly played shooters but he didn’t want his kid to play those types of games at his age, so a coworker suggested Minecraft. Although his kid didn’t know anything about the game, so he had to hop on and learn too.

-Impulse plays Minecraft with an inverted mouse. This is because he got so used to flying helicopters in various shooters it made more sense to his brain that dragging the mouse down means up, and pushing it up means down.

-Impulse started out as a fan of Tango’s until he learned that he and Tango are pretty similar in age and in video style. So he e-mailed Tango about a collab and he accepted. Later they learned they lived incredibly close to each other and went out for some “sodas” (aka BEERS). The rest is history.

-The name Impulse along with the black and yellow colour scheme is something Impulse stole from his drumcore’s name and colour scheme. His favourite colour is actually purple.

-Impulse and Skizz live in the same neighbourhood (at the time of writing)

Second addition of facts 9th of August 2022

-Impulse has a dog (specifically a Border Collie) named Prim and a cat named Luna. Luna was a gift for his older daughter. Impulse wasn’t the biggest fan of cats until his wife got one, and he fell in love as well.

-He and Skizz have been best friends for over 25 years (at the time of writing)

Bio

The Lockmoores had about as normal a life as you could have - from the outside anyway. They put on the perfect family facade so well no ever qestioned when they materialized in a new neighborhood or when they left it.  Behind closed doors however the patriarch of the familial unti was a black arms dealer working for both the US grovernment and some of their underground partners. "It's a living," he would reply whenever asked about it from those in the know.

And it was.  A very good living, but it didn't come without its costs. Neither of the children were ever to really form bonds with friends until adulthood when they were no longer being carted around the world for 'dad's work'. And their family outside of the four of them was nonexistent.  Their father had long before cut ties with his and their mother had been an only child whose parents had already passed by the time she met Frank.

Oscar was first, then Emily five years later.  The two of them becamse thick as thieves from day one.  Oscar is extremely protective of his sister - sometimes to the point of secluding her from the world.  He means well, but it can be a little much for Emily at times. Shortly after her birth, Millie was diagnosed with cancer and survived another year before perishing to the disease.  Frank did his best to keep things the way they'd always been, but Millie was a big part of keeping the children fed, clean, and happy when he was gone. 

For awhile it was just Oscar and Emily at home, but it wasn't long until her big brother was expected to join in on the family business. Her father died a few years later during a deal gone bad, leaving Oscar and Em on their own.  It was at that point that Oscar joined the military and the two of them began their own nomadic lives.  Emily had always moved near wherever Oscar was stationed. The two now reside in D.C.

3. rant. just do it I am sick of paying for things other people can't afford. I don't want to pay another person's mortgage. giving over half of my income to someone else, so they can pay off their second home - why the FUCK am I alive, I would rather be dead than let someone else use me like this. I hate working. it fucking sucks. I hate working and I hate that I have to do it so that I can stay alive, and I hate that in order to stay alive, I have to pay for some cunt to sit on their ass doing shit all. there's no fairness or justice in it at all. I was born in poverty and I will never catch a break. I exist to fund other people's lifestyles, lifestyles that they, sometimes unknowingly, flaunt in my face. what's it like, to be able to book a vacation on an impulse? I will never know. I would rather be dead than let another person profit off my labour.

14. what’s your coffee order? skinny vanilla latte or skinny white americano, depends on how I'm feeling!

16. if you had to get a tattoo right now, what would you get and where? the one of Ray that YOU designed me, on my lower arm!! the one I'm getting this Saturday!!

25. what’s something you can’t stop buying? chocolate eclairs. my one pleasure in life

I am suicidal, I am impulsive and stupid and I can’t even think for myself. I don’t know how to do not fucking shit. Just a dumbass, half ass, 25 year old adult with no knowledge of how to be an adult.

char ask meme for whichever oc you think ill like most. all numbers minus any you dont feel like answering

fukc yeah thanks nico. idk which oc you'd like though... personally i like nyx bc theyre silly but saturn and ben are emo. you like illumi so maybe jol or kanz.... ill just answer with whoever lol

Does your character have siblings or family members in their age group? Which one are they closest with?

i'll go with joel & kanz for this one bc they have a very big 'family' (its a cult, they are part of a cult). kanzy has a biological sister who's about 3-4 years younger than them?? but i believe the closest ages are lizzy and jolzy, they're like 22-25 i dont remember What is/was your character’s relationship with their mother like?

an time i hear the word 'mother' + 'oc' i think of stella. her relationship with her mother is literally so bad lmao What is/was your character’s relationship with their father like?

i'll go with saturn for this! his father choked him to death lol In what situation was your character the most afraid they’ve ever been?

i can't decide of a character for this one but half of them are dead so like. probably when they were dying Which does your character idealize most: happiness or success?

ben: success

stella: she used to prioritize success but she kinda figured that was never gonna happen so now its happiness

nyx: happiness

kanz: happiness

jol: success

saturn: justice Is your character more likely to admire wisdom, or ambition in others?

ben: wisdom

lyra: ambition

kanz: probabl wisdom What is your character’s biggest relationship flaw? Has this flaw destroyed relationships for them before?

oh hell yeah

ben: he's ridiculously self-sacrifical. he's always looking for validation and will give up his own comfort and sanity to appear 'perfect'. so he seems obnoxious & he also will shoulder every single bit of despair by himself

nyx: they just do whatever the fuck they want. like they disappeared for 3 years, didn't leave a note or anything, just said Fuck This Shit Im Out. they let their whole kingdom believe they were dead bc why would they deal with that shit when there are literally dragons. also they're irresponsible as hell

jol: he's a clown. also he's in a cult In what ways does your character compare themselves to others? Do they do this for the sake of self-validation, or self-criticism?

ben tries to make sure he's better than everyone so it's both If something tragic or negative happens to your character, do they believe they may have caused or deserved it, or are they quick to blame others?

i know i have at least one cahracter who is guilty as hell but i cant remember who What does your character like in other people?

stella like girls What does your character dislike in other people?

nyx hates people who are uptight/rule based, anyone who will yell at them for being an impulsive shithead How quick is your character to trust someone else?

jol can't trust anyone outside of his gotdamn cult. kanz got out of the cult and decided to room with the first 3 people they found, so i guess they're pretty trusting... lyra i feel is pretty trusting as well. she doesn't have many friends, but the ones she does have are cool.

How quick is your character to suspect someone else? Does this change if they are close with that person?

im treating this as a 'there's a murder mystery, who figures out the killer first' question. nyx is probably the victim. lyra is coping with nyx's murder by writing a real life fanfic in the basement. stella's distraught as hell but she's leading the investigation & trying to make sure no one else gets hurt. ben is in his room crying. he is not involved in the murders because he is locked in his room lol. kanz suspects jol from the moment they find the body. the murderer is jol. he runs away to new york and saturn hunts him for sport How does your character behave around children?

joel would be popular with children ebcause he's a clown How does your character normally deal with confrontation?

joel likes to kill people How quick or slow is your character to resort to physical violence in a confrontation?

joel likes to kill people What did your character dream of being or doing as a child? Did that dream come true?

stella wanted to be straight. she is not What does your character find repulsive or disgusting?

their own families probably In the face of criticism, is your character defensive, self-deprecating, or willing to improve?

ben: he fucking dies

stella: she doestn give a shit anymore

joel: he does not get criticism he is moms baby boy. but he likes being berated bc he aspires to be a piece of shit

kanz: 'oh my god you're so right' How does your character behave around people they dislike?

at the beginning stella just plays along with them but she learns how to properly reject middle aged men :) Is your character more likely to remove a problem/threat, or remove themselves from a problem/threat?

they are the problem How does your character treat people in service jobs?

all of them are nice except for jol who is just annoying Does your character feel that they deserve to have what they want, whether it be material or abstract, or do they feel they must earn it first?

ben does not have 'wants' he has a kingdom to rule. stella is beginning to realize she is deserving of cool shit. nyx thinks they are deserving of cool shit bc the shits cool. jol has no cool shit. kanz needs to earn their place. lyra doesnt think about that stuff. How easy or difficult is it for your character to say “I love you?” Can they say it without meaning it?

depends. jol can say 'i love you' to anyone because he was raised in Manipulation Central and they manipulate people. stella cannot say 'i love you' to your face but she will admit it while crying in nyx's arms. nyx doesn't say 'i love you' they let you cry about some hot girl in their arms. kanz can say i love you easily. ben does not say 'i love you' ever, except maybe to stella once. oh ben and stella are siblings btw What does your character believe will happen to them after they die? Does this belief scare them?

stella: i am going 2 hell

nnyx: if i die i die like who cares lmfao

lyra: death is terrifying to me. it doesn't matter where i go because the idea of being trapped somewhere for eternity is hell either way. i wont be able to control it. i'll leave my loved ones behind. i'll just waste away in a cage. if nothing happens after i die and i just cease to exist i'll be grateful

jol: if i die i die like who cares lmfao
