Self-aware König X Gender-neutral Reader

Word count: ~2800

König slowly comes to the realisation that he was in a game, that he was never real, and that he'll never be with reader.

His sense of self deteriorates as all he wishes for is to escape from the boundaries of his code and be real.

In this instance, ignorance really *was* bliss.

*Slow burn

*König has a mental breakdown at one point lmao

Edit on same day: HOLY SHIT thank u for so many notes!!!!!!!!!!! 🥹🥹💞💞💞💞💞 You guys are so nice 🫣🫣

If you had told König that he wasn't real, he would have looked at you blankly and said nothing, passing off your suggestion as a joke of sorts that he possibly couldn't understand.

Perhaps if he was ever faced with a situation like this he'd question you about it, but nothing more, and drop the subject at hand.

Honestly, the likelihood of him ever thinking over this twice would have been slim, as he would not pay your philosophy much thought shortly afterwards.

In fact, he believed that his life as a Kortac operator was indeed a real one, and he wore his embroided Austrian flag on his shoulder with something next to pride, always praised for his outstanding efforts by his superiors in the same tone of voice. To König, however, it meant nothing, and he'd only nod his head in an attempt at gratitude, turning his back to the commemoration in indifference.

Despite not remembering anything of his childhood, his upbringing — hell, even any of his past prior to becoming a soldier — König didn't ever think over it too deeply. The overwhelming pressure to make sure missions went without a hitch and constant deployments to foreign countries left no time to reminisce, especially not when his work was so demanding, and it only made sense to him that they were the reason for his forgotten memories.

Besides, even if he had time to spare and be inactive, he had to stay focused, as being an operator meant that he couldn't let any nostalgia or softness distract him from his tasks.

On the battlefield, König worked on autopilot, performing finishing kills with efficiency and with machine-like precision. Reacting quickly to enemies ambushing him from behind or an enemy that was laying on the floor behind the corner waiting to shoot him in the head, he'd eliminate the targets with bullets to spare. Really, he was unstoppable, and he was on a killing streak.

Until he was shot in the head one day.

The moment it happened, the shot was like an explosion that almost obliterated his eardrums, outside noise deafened like his head was underwater. All he could hear was the high-pitched ringing, and it held an uncanny resemblance to the beeping of a heart rate monitor machine that he would never lay next to, dying instead on a bed of cold rubble and broken shrapnel.

Somehow conscious enough to look around, his mind was completely empty, eyes attempting to adjust. What he'd assumed would happen in a time like this was his mind flashing with memories like a movie reel in his last moments, his entire life playing out in his final dying seconds.

Yet he remembered nothing. No Mama, no Papa, no childhood or any his life trials, nothing that had changed him and moulded his character, not even his motive for enlisting into the military in the first place.

The part that was most unnerving about all this was his complete apathy to it all.

Did he even care that he was dying? Shouldn't he at least feel regret at having essentially been the one to pull the trigger, cutting his own life short with the lifestyle he had committed himself to? Why wasn't he scared, sad, even bewildered at the very least, shocked that his life would soon end so unceremoniously? Fuck, not even mild disappointment at least at not even had travelled the world, and failing to ever explore any place besides abandoned buildings housing hostages and terrorist bases swarming with foes? Nothing at all?

Unable to process his situation, König just... laid there, unmoving, while his surroundings moved in double speed. Nondescript figures holding rifles wearing camo and balaclavas blurred in his vision, and he couldn't differentiate the enemy from his own.

Slowly losing consciousness, he felt his world darken around him, dulling his senses to the mayhem unfolding in real time. He'd accepted his fate, and could do nothing about it. That was that. And this was it.

It was a shock to his system when a silhouetted hand pulled him up by the arm limp by his side and shouted in his face, "Get up, soldier! This is no place to die!"

König didn't need to be told twice. He nodded his head robotically, his eyes looking ahead of him with a thousand-yard stare, and not even sparing a glance to the anonymous ally that saved him, he picked up the his gun off the floor and loaded another magazine into it with a satisfying click.

In his delirium, he worked on autopilot after that, shooting at anything that shot at him first. Too much in a daze, he was past the point of realising that the gaping bullet wound had suddenly sealed itself, vanishing entirely and leaving no mark that it was ever there.

After that, König didn't realise that he wasn't real when any injuries still didn't affect him. He assumed that his insensitivity to wounds was a result of a high pain tolerance, and his body healing miraculously was his ability to regenerate fast.

Although he would lay on the ground, his arm outstretched while through gritted teeth shouting: "Scheisse! Ich brauche hier Hilfe! I need some help over here!"; truth be told, he'd only do so when he after getting used to seeing so many bodies writhe in pain like so, and something for some reason told him that it was the right thing to do.

Waking up moments after not far from the spot he supposedly died in a daze, all bullet wounds gone, he didn't have time in the moment to think over the specifics of his death. Maybe he was hallucinating, or remembering things incorrectly.

König began to suspect that something was wrong when he'd hear his operators say the same sentence word for word. He rationalised that the constant shooting that never ceased even late into the night and dangerous missions that left him with far too many close calls put pressure on his mind. This mania amongst soldiers in the military was a common phenomenon after all, so it shouldn't have been as much of a surprise for König when he felt waves of déjà vu at hearing statements he could have sworn were related to him before at one point, and going to infiltrate areas that were vaguely familiar.

At some point, he thought something was REALLY wrong when he was storming a military base with... a sniper rifle.

Time stood still as he inspected the weapon in his hands, eyes wide.

That... was impossible. He had never been a sniper. True, he had wanted to be one from the beginning, yet he had adapted to his role as the main means of assault, always on the offensive rather on the defensive. So then... Why?

Adding to that, his appearance would differ. They were subtle changes at first, yet still noticeable: a red helmet instead of his black; an ochre hood instead of his black veil with its signature red streaks; a sniper camoflauge when that disguise had never been in his possession before; and even a gas mask with a hazmat suit when he had been wearing something else altogether on the helicopter heading towards its destination.

Although König hadn't know it yet, his reality was slowly shattering along the cracks, but he stubbornly fought the gnawing feeling that ate him up from the inside. He had to stay focused, he repeated to himself. No time to ponder when a task was at hand.

"All units ready your weapons, and in position immediately." Through his walkie-talkie, a voice began counting down the time left before the mission would begin. "60 seconds."

König checked all of his gear, making sure that everything was in place and he was fully equipped. A rifle, a side-arm, ammo, grenades, a med kit for an emergency and a knife. "40 seconds."

Looking up into the sky and straight into the sun, he didn't need to cover his sight as his eyes weren't affected by it at all. Yet, his eyes squinted in confusion, sensing that he was seeing something that he wasn't meant to see behind the glowing eye. "20 seconds."

He saw more than an eye. An ear, a nose, then a mouth. A face.

He saw you.

You were looking at him through a screen, holding a controller and waiting to start playing your game.

His reality shattered all at once, and he stumbled on his feet, unable to regain his balance, feeling himself go weak in the knees. He tuned out the all-important seconds through the communication device, unable to compose himself as for the first time ever he struggled to breathe.

Suddenly, all of it made sense.

People telling him the same things and never deviating from the topic of the mission, the reawakenings, the pain insensitivity — all of it was because none of it was never real.

People never branched off into other topics of conversation because their sole existence was limited to a few hand-selected voiceliness and idle animations. With each upgrade and level up, König had gotten praise from from him superiors, which explained how emotionless their announcements always sounded and why they were so constant.

The frequent brushes with death weren't a matter of luck, and instead it was just his entity respawning until a certain condition was met, until either Kortac or Specgru came out victorious — otherwise, he could "die" as many times as it took until the time ran out.

He was unfazed by bullets that grazed him and knives that tore though his flesh as he could physically feel no pain, his very existence artificial, his skin composed of pixels with no human matter hidden beneath them.

And, his inability to trace back to before he was transferred to Kortac was all because it was all he was programmed to know. There was no childhood. There was no Mama or Papa. It was just him in this world, and he had been manufactured, his thoughts and behaviours fabricated.

For a moment, he considered you the creator of his word, his God, and felt forsaken. He wanted to curse you, to snap your neck in his hands and watch your head drop lifelessly in his hold.

Yet it became apparent that you weren't the one behind this realm. Seeing the headphones strapped to your head and the controller held in anticipation in your hands, you were simply indulging in a past time, and weren't to blame for his state in any way. It wasn't your fault that you were unknowingly playing as a König trapped in the game.

You let out a groan of frustration, mashing buttons on your controller in an attempt to get König to move.

"What the fuck is going on?!" You hissed, trying in any way you could to start playing. Checking your router and the game's ping, you saw that your connection was secure, and that there was no reason for König to be frozen in place. "Fucking piece of shit console."

König shook his head, still disbelieving and unable to accept his fictional reality, yet hearing the sound of your voice made everything an even tougher pill to swallow. He had to stay in character. For you; it was the least that he could do.

After the initial lag at the beginning of the match, the game went smoothly and you couldn't find any faults. However, you suddenly noticed that your movements over König improved, moving with more fluidity and suddenly taking less damage than what you would normally use to. Headshot after headshot and kills all of the time poured onto on your screen until you'd find yourself being ganged up by bitter players wanting to ruin your streak as revenge.

Still, you topped the leaderboards with a new personal record that night. 97 kills to 0 deaths flashed on your screen, and you jumped up from your gaming chair, ecstatic, almost knocking it over in the process.

König felt butterflies in his stomach seeing you smile and jump around excitedly, and that's when he had found his purpose.

From that moment on, you became his lifeline. You gave the unfeeling König something to live for, a motive to keep fighting that he hadn't been given when being created in the game — for you and your greater good.

Really, you made him feel things: made him feel alive; made him fight with more passion and determination when your happiness was on the line.

He fell... In love.

The feelings and emotions he felt in his chest chest were genuine, and weren't pre-written in a script or manipulated by a third-party. Even the bullets that would pierce through his gear and leave him on the ground withering in agony was worth it, and he'd exchange his invincibility any day to feel what he felt when he saw your face, and the smile that tugged at your lips when you were revived or got a difficult kill.

His love for you was immortal, and it would persist through generations and could last for a lifetime, and König was almost certain that you could feel all of his energy channelling through your TV.

He found himself lovingly staring at you through the screen, admiring you as if you were an ephemeral being, a beautiful angel, even when your hair was greasy, your old tee had armpit stains and your eyes were bloodshot from how long you had been playing. Really, none of that put König off — if anything, all of those made you so distinctly you, so human.

Yet, König was in love with someone that was practically in another dimension and he would never speak to them, never touch them, never share thoughts and pass the time doing everything and nothing with them. None of that, because he wasn't real.

Had his life improved now they he had grown self-awareness? Had his ignorance really been bliss before his revelation? Perhaps if he had been another NPC that only gained manipulated consciousness whenever the player spawned in the map he wouldn't be so stricken with grief and crouched over in agony, the knuckles on his hands turning white from how fervently he was gripping his mask. He'd hyperventilate off-screen, sometimes the torment being too much.

Being so close to you yet being restricted to his three-dimensional world was bittersweet at the least, and internal suffering at most. His insatiable craving to be with you, and you with him only, fuelled his desperation, and he tried to keep you with him for as long as possible through any means necessary.

When you selected an operator that wasn't König, your game glitched heavily and would even crash whenever you made the mistake of even complimenting their design, and God forbid whenever you tried to play as someone other than him, as your console would near explode.

When you'd boot up a different game on your PlayStation, your loading screen would suddenly transport you back to the one of MW2, König greeting you with a voiceline that he reserved and perfected just for you:

"Welcome back, schatz. I have been waiting for you." Because he treasured you, and you were the only person that he could ever have feelings for.

Perhaps a recent update was fucking up your console, or it was just malfunctiong due to age. Either way, playing on an eight year old PS4 meant it could only run for so long and glitches like this were inevitable, yet you persisted in keeping the console running, not in your budget to afford to upgrade.

You'd search frantically on the internet for any information about the new König voicelines and whether there was any resolution for your problem when playing CoD, something telling you that your game was not functioning in the way that it should.

A thought crossed your mind that König had gone rogue, and you tried to laugh it off. Swallowing thickly, that still didn't relieve the deep pit in your stomach. If anything, the mere idea made it worse for you, and you'd get an intense gut feeling that would make you feel dizzy whenever König would make eyes contact with you and stand there, making you question whether he was acting out of character or not.

His attempts to keep you with him were commendable, yet none of it could change the fact that it would never be anything more than one-sided pining, a deep longing for a person whose world kept spinning while his stopped once you logged off the game, his day ending abruptly and being consumed by darkness.

For now, König had to content himself with being stuck behind a screen. He wished so desperately to be able to touch you, to escape this human generated world that trapped him in these bounds, and to find who he really is when with you. Shrouded in this deep black void, all he could do was wait patiently until you'd boot up the game again.

A hand was placed on his side of the screen longingly, resting it gently on the face on the other side.

Note: this wasn't meant to be so sad ,how did an idea of König popping out from the screen turnvto this 😭😭

iF REQUESTS ARE OPEN-

may I request a ‘being in a secret relationship’ with izuku and shoto? (separate of course lol) it can be headcannons, short scenario, etc

BUT

one certain day, someone (could be anyone!) from class 1A finds out somehow? and tells the rest of the classssss-

I randomly thought about this-

If you don't want to do this it's fine lmao

Secret Relationship Headcanons || MHA characters x reader

A/n : I love these random thoughts ! They always make my day 😍✨

Including : Izuku Midoriya, Shoto Todoroki

Warning : fluff, making out, mention of other characters, secret relationship but you get exposed 👀

Masterlist ⚜

I don’t give permission to repost my work, if you want to share it just reblogue it

Words count : 1988

Izuku Midoriya :

He has many reasons to be in a secret relationship with you. Far from being ashamed of you, on the contrary, he still wonders how a someone as awesome as you ended up with a Deku loser like him

You're his little marvel ✨

But being with him is very dangerous, and he was fully aware of it after the second attack of the League of Villain at the training camp... a week after you got together

You decided to wait for at least the double before making it official but this event made izuku wonder. And being the smart boy he is and knowing the fact that the One For All was going to make him a target of choice for the villains, he decided to keep your relationship secret

(( Of course before his vigilante era because in that case I sincerely think he will break up with you to be 100% sure you will be safe... he will watch over you from the shadows ))

But you are far from it for a long time :')

The attack at the training camp had one advantage according to you two, the setting up of the dormitories !

Now it's like you live together

Well, you had to hide from the others but in theory it was quite easy

Knowing that you met exclusively at night, to discuss your respective days or your fears of the future

At the beginning, being the respectful and shy boy that he is, he would only come and chat with you, have a good laugh and then he would kiss your cheek and tiptoe back to his room

Until one day you got tired of him being respectful and kissed him and pulled him into bed with you to cuddle

Turned out you made out after 10 sec at looking at each other in silence

He was so red you could see him glow in the dark

You're personal little Rudolph

Honestly you were doing your stuff quite discreetly, it's not like anyone could guess unless they saw Izuku coming out of your room early in the morning

And it was much more convenient and pleasant to fall asleep with him in your arms or vice versa than to fall asleep with the phone in your hand after hours of discussion through cameras

The day nothing could give away your little secret either

At first you didn't have the same group of friends. He spent his time with Uraraka, Iida and Todoroki while you spent your time with Mina, Hanta, Denki, Eijiro and Katsuki

The few times you and Izuku were together during the day were during training or lunch

But for most people it was just friendship and he probably pestered you with tons of questions about your alter

Well, most of the people but not the explosive Katsuki Bakugo, who considered you as his sister since you interfered with the lov so he wouldn't get kidnapped that night

In short he had a lot of respect for you and even if he hid it well, he was always looking forward to your exciting discussions

However, that day he did not see you in the canteen with the rest of the Bakusquad

"The hot headed isn't here ?" ( a little nickname he had given you since the fight at the training camp )

"I think she went to lunch with Izuku" answered Eijiro while pointing to a table not far from theirs

"Oooooh ! They are so cute !" squeaked Mina

"Ughhh I'm sick of it at this rate I could never date Y/n" whined Denki ( almost wrote my name there pfff )

"What did you say you joker ?!?" yelled Katsuki grabbing Denki by the collar

"No nothing- nothing ! Didn't say a word"

Katsuki was very protective of you and that's what drew his attention to you and Izuku in the first place

His charp attention allowed him to see that during the training Izuku never went to 100% of his strength with you while he was doing it casually with the other girls. And you were far from needing it

So Katsuki kept an eye on you for a week, trying to find out if anything suspicious was going on

( A/n : Jeez Katsuki 😂

"Huh ? What did you say nerd ?!?"

"Kiyaa nothing" runs out of UA )

He had already noticed that the door of Izuku's room - which was not far from his - opened systematically at around 7 in the morning, that is to say about 30 minutes before everyone had to get up

But everything became much clearer the following Friday night

Class 1-A had decided to have a movie night as usual and for the first time Katsuki decided to stay in order to solve the mystery

And that's when he saw something he could never have imagined

While you were sitting on one of the sofas with Izuku by your side one of his hands came to rest on your thigh and you turned your head to give him a smile which he shyly replied

Soon all the heads turned towards the blond who had just released a small explosion without noticing

"This is a joke !" he thought

After that we declared to take a break from the movie while everyone went to the bathroom or to get more snacks

You were also going to get some popcorn leaving Izuku alone on the couch

Katsuki took advantage of this and grabbed Izuku by the collar and dragged him into the corridor before tackling him to the wall

"How long have you two been messing with us ?!?"

"W-what ? I don't understand what you're talking about argh" Izuku pretended not to understand

"I hope your intentions are good nerd or I'll exolode your stupid face" he shouted

And as Izuku was about to push Katsuki to get out of his grip, you appeared behind Katsuki and grabbed him by the shoulders "Don't worry, it's going to be okay"

The explosive sighed and let go of Izuku before his bright red eyes landed on you "I better not scrap you off the ground"

With Vigilante Deku though...

The yelling of your brother from another mother has attracted the rest of the class who are looking at you with round eyes

"Uh what is it ?" asked Mineta

And as Katsuki was about to yell that it was none of their business you took Izuku's hand in yours and spoke up "We're dating"

Everyone gasped in unison, hand over mouth

"Since when ?" asked Momo

Izuku blushed deeply and scratched the back of his head "P-practically 1 year-"

"A Y E A R !!!"

Apart from that the news went pretty well... that doesn't mean that Katsuki will stop mothering you any time soon

Shoto Todoroki :

He too has good reasons to keep your relationship a secret

The first one being that he is the son of a famous hero and he absolutely does not want your relationship to be torn apart by his old man's reputation or status

Secondly, he doesn't want his father to find out either, he's sure he'd tell him how you're not right for him and how much better he needs you

Which would result in a violent outburst from Shoto that no one would have ever seen

(( Then there is also the Dabi problem which would make you a potential target for the lov but that's a future proble 😅 / cries ))

However I think he would tell Fuyumi about it, I'm even sure. For the simple reason that he is dense and sentimentally constipated / affectionate So he will need all the help in the world in his relationship with you before he eventually gets the hang of it

In itself it wasn't really a problem from that point of view. As he didn't like the atmosphere in his house he preferred to spend time with you outside, walking in the woods or fields rather than rotting inside

He even managed to bring Fuyumi with him one day during one of your walks and you could meet his wonderful big sister, with whom you got along very well right away

"Now I understand why Shoto talks about you all the time" she told you

You swear you have never seen your boyfriend so red in your life, it's as if his scar has disappeared

Apart from this you both felt at times a lack of each other

That is to say that the affectionate looks exchanged in class or during the training or the lunch surrounded by your friends but still separated by the big table prevent you to bloom as you wish

It's only when the dormitories in the academy was decreed that you could finally spend a lot of time together

His discretion allowed him to slip away without being noticed during the breaks

But you also found an opening to get away when your friends proposed activities such as movie nights, board games, video games

That's how, by declining Mina's invitation to the movie night, you managed to find yourselves alone for the evening

It had been a long, long time since you had been alone together

And it was due to the intensive succession of the courses and trainings imposed by Aizawa who didn't go easy on you

In short it was an understatement to say that you had missed each other

And knowing the effect you had on Shoto, it was not surprising that he literally jumped on you, the moment you had moved away from the dormitory complex

He was thirsty for your affection and that's how you found yourself pinned to a tree, his hands firmly holding your hips as he kissed you fiercely

"I kiss missed kiss you kiss so kiss much kiss"

When you both found yourself dizzy from lack of air, you parted, your hands still nestled in his mismatched hair

He gave you a smile with crinkled eyes you'd only seen on his face on special occasions

Your eyes locked with his and before you knew it one of his hands was on your cheek, pulling your lips to his once more

You ran your tongue over his bottom lip to intensify the kiss

"Huh ? What's going on here ?"

This made him jump back separating him from you in an instant. You squeaked at the sudden question from Denki

"Erm nothing…" you replied

After clearing his throat Shoto asked "What are you doing here ?

"Ah I heard noises, like moaning and thought someone was hurt- IS THAT LIPSTICK THAT YOU HAVE ON YOUR MOUTH ?!? OOOOOOOOH !!!" he said pointing at you both with his fingers

Shoto turned pale and turned to you, his eyes widened at the sight of your own smeared lipstick on your lips "Do I have some too ?" he asked in a small voice

Out of the corner of your eye you saw Denki running away so you ran after him leaving Shoto in the lurch. You grabbed Denki with your quirk and tackled him to the ground "You won't tell anyone" you said in a threatening voice

He nodded and you let him go

Shoto suddenly appeared behind you "Will you be alright ?"

You gasped "As long as you're ok I'm ok"

He pulled you to him and kissed your forehead "Then we'll be fine"

As expected, once he arrived in the dormitories Denki whispered to Eijiro, Hanta and Mina what he had just seen

And Mina told it to the girls

15 minutes later Shoto and you arrived in the common room and all heads turned to you as the movie stopped leaving you all in an awkward silence

"Icy Hot !!!"

Shoto looked at him with an indifferent look before seeing you speeding past him towards the blonde who had just run off "DENKI !!!"

A/n : I hope you guys liked it ! 🥯🌯 Again my requests are open 🥗🥙

bottle it up until it overflows - ohhhh boy, i absolutely love the vecna possessing mike trope and this fic definitely lives up to high standards, rated mature, bad parent ted wheeler and internalized homophobia, basically mike gets vecna'd is the entire plot - @ghoulsanderson

i feel like i know you (but we never met) - post season 4 of stranger things, ambiguous / open ending, teen rating, oh boy this made me emotional!, without spoilers i have to say this is such an angsty fic and i love it, this fic is written beautifully, the party all forget will because of vecna suppressing their memories, spoilers: mike puts everything together to figure out who the "missing person" is - @andiwriteordie

something's made your eyes go cold - TW SUICIDE ATTEMPTS, rated mature, mike is chronically suicidal, very very angsty but relatable (sadly), oneshot - @defendingtammythompson

when everything was fiction, future and prediction - two words: time travel, mike is confronted by his younger self and figures out a few things, very much hurt/comfort, rated teen

9-1-1 TV

*all the time in the world - i literally know nothing about the dsmp but the way this was written is so beautiful, i love angst and buddie but also buck angst gets me the most, evan buckley used to be someone called karl jacobs but eddie doesn't know that and thinks buck is a war veteran, he's not entirely wrong but also don't make me fact check that beyond reading this, this fic makes me feel super autistic in a way i can't explain, time travel and secret identities are just so my jam dude, bonus chris moment that made me squeal bc chris eddie and buck are so family material - @official-impravidus

*my palms and fingers still reek of gasoline - such a good crossover, the characterization is very very good, i definitely need to read it again, a pjo au that has a twist, demigod buck and eddie are special to me now, having buck be on that side is an interesting choice and i like it, buck's mom being aphrodite makes so much sense - @trashyinfernomusic

Shiny from Moana is so Neptune coded actually, ESPECIALLY in timelines where he's ascended to their Lord in Black form, Starry (or, A'stertunus, if you want to be extra formal). And, interestingly, I think this particular song would be very interesting if it's centered around Starry singing to Hannah.

Now, the first verse seems to be mainly Starry singing about "hey look how cool and pretty I am, I'm a fucking immortal cat god and you're just mortal you fucking loser," and of course the "did your granny say listen to your heart / be who you are on the inside / I need three words to tear her argument apart / your granny LIED" is Starry mocking the things Webby might've told Hannah growing up. Y'know, classic "Webby is a stupid bitch" stuff. But, what these lines really are is the start of the Neptune/Starry and Hannah parallels, yippee!

While most of the song goes about as you'd expect, with Starry singing a cool and awesome song while bragging about how cool and awesome hy is, as Hannah just... Tries to survive, where it REALLY gets juicy is the "Far from the ones who abandoned you" bit where in the original song it's Tamatoa making fun of Maui's backstory and how weak that makes him, here that same part is recontextualized as Starry seeing a reflection of himself in Hannah and HATING IT.

Here's a lyric by lyric breakdown of the parallels so it can fully understand how GENIUS they are.

"Far from the ones who abandoned you / chasing the love of these humans who made you feel wanted."

At first glance, these lines are simply Starry mocking Hannah for their fraught relationship with both their parents, with an absent father and a neglectful, abusive mother, and how that drove them to follow Webby. However, if you know anything about Neptune's backstory, this is strikingly similar to THEIR reason for worshipping Pokey, becoming his adopted son, and in timelines where hy's ascended to his Lord in Black form as Starry, EVEN BECAME A GOD AT ALL. Neptune had a similarly fraught relationship with both his parents, where they were borderline neglectful to them, only caring enough to keep hymn fed, watered, and sheltered, leaving him constantly starved for some form of attention, affection, or a scrap of parental approval. And, just like Hannah, this drove Neptune into the waiting arms of an eldritch god, though instead of the benevolent Queen in White, Webby, it was the most uncompromising of her brothers, Pokotho, the Singular Voice himself.

"You tried to be tough / but your armor's just not hard enough."

This line, in this case, gives away Neptune/Starry's underlying feelings towards Hannah. Again, they realize how similar they are, how they were taken in by eldritch paternal figures for similar reasons, and hy HATES it. In his mind, this just means they have to work to prove hy's BETTER than Hannah somehow, that he's stronger, tougher, and they didn't get where hy was just by being Pokey's son. Acknowledging their similarities would mean acknowledging all his deep rooted issues with their parents, hymns need for approval, and shockingly low self worth, and he doesn't want to do that because that would mean (to Starry, at least), acknowledging hy's weak. So, his goading and mocking of Hannah and how they're supposedly weaker than them is, in reality, hymn grasping at straws, trying to find something that sets him apart from Hannah, makes them better and still worthwhile.

It's honestly kind of depressing, if you think of it. What with all their similarities, Neptune and Hannah might have had an opportunity to become friends once upon a time if Neptune just got a bit of therapy, but because of hymns inferiority complex and fear of not being "good enough" for Pokey, for ANYONE, it's these same similarities that drive them further apart.

Hatchetfield Theories: Nerdy Prudes Must Die

(As of 12th Jan)

Right all, it is time.

I've been putting this off until the new year due to being extensively ill but I'm now ready to post my - most likely incorrect - theories about Nerdy Prudes Must Die.

Honestly, I'm starting to think its more entertaining when I'm completely wrong.

As a reminder these are all just my theories based on what we have had so far from Starkid and previous HF installments. I'm definitely not considering being accurate and most is just speculative.

I'm splitting this down into sections:

Storyline

Characters

Lore insights

Other

1 - Storyline

When the biggest losers at Hatchetfield High unwittingly complete an ancient, evil ritual, they unleash an all- powerful, angry spirit with a grudge against nerds. That’s when Stephanie Lauter, Grace Chasity, and a cast of social rejects must fight to save themselves and nerdy prudes everywhere. But can any of them survive the fury of a bully from beyond the grave?

I think the biggest question regarding the storyline is how does the angry spirit come into being, and well - ancient, evil ritual is definitely going to be from the Black Book right? We've seen rituals indicated in the book before - notably this one:

That is a ritual if I ever did see one.

With this, there is the implication of who in this group of losers has the Gift. One of them surely must unknowingly have it in order to accidentally activate an ancient ritual. Or maybe they all do? And that is why the evil bully from beyond the grave wants their souls.

In terms of how the ancient ritual is activated, my guess would be that its due to the "losers" wishing for better or to be better in some way. In High School is Killing Me we see in Nick's words 'high schoolers lamenting their miserable existence", and in Cool As I Think I Am, we get Pete's lines:

But what if all my thoughts

Were stronger?

What if my beliefs

Were taller?

What if I were king of the hill?

Captain of the team?

Oooh dear Peter. You're expressing a Want in a Hatchetfield musical - never a great idea. That's how the Monstars get you. (If you get that joke you get a prize!)

2 - Characters

Max:

Literal Monster involves all the nerds of Hatchetfield High singing about Max in a way only equalled by Regina George.

One time, Max stole my soul. It was awesome.

I am assuming Max is the big bully who comes back from beyond the grave - which unless someone can correct me (and please do!!!) - I think is still an assumption at this point, albeit a reasonable one. But if that is the case, then Max must die at some point early in the show, specifically murdered. This would explain why Karen is a "murder suspect". Additionally could be a reason why Max is the "enemy of nerdy prudes" - perhaps it was a nerdy prude who killed him.

Grace:

I think Grace will get a love interest and Best of You will be her song either to or with said person.

I wanted, i needed, the kind of love from someone else

I believe in you, you believe in me

My theory is this is Grace's song because "the kind of love from someone else" feels like a reference to religious, god given love. And the use of the word "believe" also gives me religious connotations.

3 - Lore Insights:

Holloduke:

Yeah, I too think its very possible we get Holloduke in this show. Whether its in crumbs or more fully integrated into the story.

The only counter to this possibility I can think of is whether Starkid would want the same two people playing two different couples in the same show.

But if we get only one of them, its more likely to be Miss H. If I am right that the ancient ritual comes from the Black Book it makes sense for her to be in the show. Plus she could be at the school like she is at the end of Killer Track - Duke feels less likely with this group of teens.

Hatchet Town:

I definitely think we'll get some more lore about Hatchetfield itself and the song Hatchet Town is absolutely boggling my brain. Particularly the following lines:

Before the lockdown

Larry on a murder spree and that changed the town.

who stepped on our hallowed ground

The song demo talks about how great Hatchetfield used to be, sunshine, rainbows, kids safe on the street. And then a change. A lockdown, a murder spree, a dude named Larry.

Do I think we'll get confirmation on the intricacies of why Hatchetfield is such a special town? No. But Nick said a whole verse was cut for the livestream as it contained spoilers so I do think we'll get some more crumbs in this song about Hatchetfield's weirdness.

Suddenly this show is upsetting

Starkid breaking the 4th wall in a Hatchetfield musical - groundbreaking. I jest, but out of context this is definitely a line to add to the "these shows are fictional within universe and the Black and White is the writing on the pages of the script" theories - so I am very curious what the context of this line will be.

Finally, a small hint that we're going to find out more about the town is that we are getting two characters who are a realtor and the mayor. I feel like if anyone would know about the strange goings on in Hatchetfield, it would be the people in charge of and buying/selling the properties.

Lords in Black:

This was the first musical written or at least envisioned, so I think it might be possible that we don't see or get any explicit reference to a Lord in Black. I think we may see evidence of their influence through the angry spirit, kind of like Car!Jane and Evil!Ethan - something that has gone through the Black and White after death. And come back different.

My main resoning here is that I can't really place any of Spooky Spice and the Gang into this based on what we know of them so far, so if we do get any of them explicitly either we will be learning something new about their intentions with Hatchetfield or possibly even a new being all together.

4 - Other Fun Bits:

PEIP:

Fun Fact: I say PEIP in my head the same way the Pen Pineapple Apple Pen fella says PPAP and I can't unhear it.

Back in Jon's TGDLM and Black Friday watch parties he mentioned that Nick said "Theres a PEIP joke for every hatchetfield musical"

It would make sense that PEIP make an appearance in this show, we have seen them face the Extraterrestrial and the Interdimensional. And now we're getting the Paranormal. Surely PEIP will follow.

Does this necessarily mean Mac? No. But it would make sense for Bryce's HFPD officer to have a military counterpart to butt heads with.

Or maybe we'll hear neither head nor tail of them. Not even a peep.

Clivesdale:

Is this wishful thinking? Yes. But I would be OVER THE MOON if we got some hint to what is up with Clivesdale. I have my theories, and I definitely think there is something more to those folks across the bridge.

So I think that's it for now. But what do you think? Anything you disagree with? Anything additional you think we may see?

I'm so normal about your OCs I haven't finished the series yet so I don't understand some limited things, but that will change soon! Anyways your OCs are fucking awesome and I would love an info dump on them if you have time

oh boy, an opportunity to not shut up about about my OCs! is it already Christmas??? (not but actually thank you for being interested in my dumb kids)

there's a lot to say about them, since I can't stop myself from thinking about em', so I'll do a bunch of fun facts:

- Luiza's main inspiration is Denji from Chainsaw Man; it's very telling with her feral smiles and uh, vulgar way of speech let's say (there's also the constant search for love by literally anyone but the funnies are more important)

- Luiza has self-taught herself in martial arts: her speciality is the Open Hand Technique, a fighting style that incorporates strong and fast slaps using the whole body.

(also yes she can slap so hard it creates a pressure wave)

- Luiza's favorite musical genre is rock in any variation, her favorites being popular songs from the 2010's. She is a certified MCR head and isn't ashamed to admit it.

- Luiza and Helena are twins: their birthday is on June 1st and they're both Geminis (which was totally intentional and not a happy coincidence thanks to a random number generator)

- Luiza is a flaming bisexual, Helena is trans and aroace, Milia is a lesbian and Rebeca is the token straight friend of the group while Six is Six (genderfluid and extremely pan)

(there's a lot more below but I'm hiding it as to not flood people's dashboards!)

- I have a pretty clear character arc for Luiza planned in a (completely delusional) season 1: Luiza starts out as a doormat due to years of having to take care of Helena during her depressive episodes and constantly failing to argue her down from very self-destructive and hateful thoughts; all of this makes Luiza consistently disregard her own opinions and thoughts for whatever her family thinks. She very much starts the "show" off being someone that burns herself for others and that has a very low opinion of herself. That of course changes when she finds Milia, someone that grows to unabashedly care for her and everything she stands for, making Luiza finally realize that yes, she has an innate worth as an individual even if she can't be useful to people. Also she finally grows a backbone specifically to stand up for herself and Milia.

- I think I already told this through a comic, but the reason they both have white locks of hair is trauma, though the irl reason for it is because white/grey are colors associated with wolves and I felt the need to be extremely obvious they're lycanthropes.

- Helena was the second sister to be made irl, but honestly both of their designs and Kallas' just, came to me suddenly one day. Their final designs are quite literally their first iteration, with a few changes over the months because that just happens when you draw the same characters over and over again-

- on the topic of Helena, she doesn't have a main inspiration as much as she is loosely based on the "mean goth girl" archetype; I say loosely based because Helena is also a theater kid in spirit and a huge nerdy loser under all that black leather-

- Helena's arc for season 1 starts out rough: she believes herself to be a monster and will do anything to keep her family safe. While Luiza wants to cure herself of her curse and interact with people, Helena wants to harness it further and never ever feel pain again. Whenever Luiza brings up her dreams of having friends and going to school, Helena shuts it down by saying it's unrealistic and she should stop thinking about it because they're monsters and it's all they'll ever be. Of course all of this vitriol comes from the sister's years of trying and failing to integrate in society, coupled with Helena's own mental issues warping her view of herself. By the end of season 1, through meeting Milia and Luiza finally having the guts to stand against her sister's ideas while still understanding why she thinks that way, Helena abandons her idea of harnessing her curse and starts to open up more to her family.

- Milia's main inspiration is very obviously Suletta Mercury from the Witch from Mercury; if the round eyebrows and generally anxious personality wasn't enough, like Suletta she grows to be confident and lead the charge for her friends (there's even more parallels but I would be spoiling the shit out of WfM-)

- Milia's birthday is on November 5th, making her a Scorpio (which is mildly funny if you're into astrology)

- her vampire form ripping away human skin to reveal a bat-like monster below it comes from an old concept I had involving vampires. I think it actually comes from somewhere else but I literally can't remember it-

- Milia is cold to the touch and barely feels pain; when first learning to cook Milia constantly cut herself and did not realize she did until she saw blood pouring out of her wounds

- Milia's season 1 arc is considerably simple compared to the twins: she starts out scared and alone and, through the Petroniuses compassion, learns to love and be loved. She learns to value herself, stand up for herself and let go of being scared of everything and everyone. She not only mirrors the sister's arcs, but also inspires them into developing through her honest and kind nature. For that reason in post season 1 Milia grows to be the leader of the Bootleg Gear Gang.

- The Angrvadall, Rati and Ukonvasara were all based on the Babr-e Bayan, Milia's relic. The three Symphogears are actually a testbed for a mass produced type of phonic armor development through alchemy; while they can reach the same insane power level that the canon girls do, the Bootleg Gear Gang aren't put in world ending situations and thus don't reach a power level higher than somewhere around GX and AXZ (though they get XV style Gears because I think they're neat-)

- Rebeca and Six are very much like siblings; though they were forced together into a single body, after years of working through it they became nearly inseparable. They both care for and respect each other's autonomy and personal limits, which is why they both wear gender neutral clothes (since Six is uncomfortable wearing traditionally feminine clothing)

- Rebeca was born August 25th making her a Virgo. Six can't remember his birthday, so they make their implant date, July 14th, their birthday. That makes Six's sign Cancer.

- Rebeca/Six were originally planned to be Milia's older siblings; this is still technically true since Six was part of the same undeath experiments that birthed Milia so... yeah! The idea of them inhabiting the same body came from a shower thought that simply stuck around because I really liked it (and also because it's a Gundam 00 reference-)

- also, they're both the strongest Symphogear wielders of the group; Luiza and Helena are stronger when singing in unison, but Rebeca/Six have a unique advantage with being able to switch from two completely different fighting styles on the fly. Additionally Rebeca's brain is simply built different and she constantly pushes her side of Ukonvasara to do increasingly stupid shit like calling down lighting, throwing thunder and eventually using magnetism and electrokinesis. She's very Maria-like when it comes to having an extremely versatile Symphogear and constantly pulling shit out of her ass-

#senki zesshou symphogear #symphogear #symphogear oc #luiza petronius #helena petronius #milia polidori #rebeca/six #my art #i think that's enough fun facts for a single post-#absolutely went off the rails there but oh well #i have many thoughts about my ocs-

Haiii I figured I would make a request while i was thinking about it

Nb reader forces either sabo or ace to go on a really long streinuous hike with them because reader love to hike

Thank you for looking at my ask Here is a hiking pic for you from one of my hikes to add to the ambiance lol

That is literally an awesome photo. I don't have the stamina anymore to walk up a set of three stairs XD. I used some old pictures as further inspiration for this fic, the place is called, "Griffith Sculpture Park." Also a picture of my ass after running down a gravel trail at mach ten because if I tried to stop I would've wiped out and I'd be left to die by the group I went with.

And I couldn't choose between the two so I included them both, I hope you enjoy, sorry this took so long.

Words: I don't even know I forgot to check honestly.

Ao3 Backup Link:

“I cannot go further, leave me here to die.”

“I thought you did this all the time as a kid?”

“Yes - emphasis on ‘kid’. With limitless energy.”

“This is just plain sad. I said you should wear something more hiking appropriate…”

“Just drag me up the mountain.”

“I don’t think I can do that.”

“Get Ace to do it.”

“I think Ace is at least a hundred yards ahead…”

“Bastard.”

“Hee hee~ Well if it makes you feel better, he’s probably going to get a few ticks from wearing nothing but shorts…”

“It doesn’t - that idiot!”

“Well then we better catch up.”

—

The stone here is slick with the moss thriving off the waterfall's mist, paired with an iron fence so rusted it looks ready to burst into dust with just the slightest touch.

Sabo lets out a loud sigh, breathing in the cool air from under the fall, wiping his face with his scrunched up cravat.

"We're not too far off, the forest will 'ventually give way to a clearing."

The winter snows hadn't melted too long ago, requiring you two to maneuver off the beaten path every ten meters or so when it became a mudfest. Some wooden planks laid down by hikers' pasts were helpful, but half broken and essentially a wildcard to step on. The trails split apart as they meander up the hill, but all eventually converge at the same spot.

The last bit of this trail is steep - you offer a hand, "Flat ground awaits 'yee." With a chuckle he takes the extended help and walks the rest of the way into a clear field, a bare spot on the side of the mountain. The grass is still a tad yellow, but the wind smells of spring. And around the enormous field are various creatures, big and small, human and inhuman.

Sculptures, that is.

"Wow. Any idea who made these?"

"No clue. They've been here as long as the locals can remember."

Boots crunch together as you round a pond - the statues here are upside down, but reflected on the still water, they portray a bunch of dancing nereids, dwarfing the two of you in size.

"YO!"

Further up the gentle slope, Ace has laid claim to a giant sandcastle sculpture, sitting between the battlements. "Finally made it! Gee, I didn't think you were that much slower than me."

"For the fourth time, we were not racing, and I'm wearing a suit!"

"Excuses, excuses. We've still got further to go!"

"Oh…." He grimaces. "And … we have … to walk … back?"

You clap a hand on his shoulder, "Don't fear too much, it's all downhill, at least."

He grabs a ladder rung, climbing the sculpture and joining Ace at the top, “Wow, some tall trees, I still can’t quite see over them.”

You quickly scale the legs of a much larger sculpture - a metal crab.

“I am the ruler of the crabs. Fear me.”

“I can beat you!”

“Wait Ace - get down from there, those sculptures aren’t meant for climbing!”

“You’re just a loser Sabo.”

“Hey guys, you know the sooner we get to the top, we can have lunch!”

—

The prospect of food sent Ace catapulting up the mountain trail. Meanwhile, you entangle your hand with Sabo’s to help him up the much steeper slope. With nice things like unstable dirt and thick mud and lichen-carpeted boulders. Even if it’s second nature to you, it’s best never to get cocky. As pretty as it is, mother nature’s just waiting for you to make one wrong move. Sabo turns out to be very good at making these judgments - well, he has to be - it’s just the distance. And the heat.

“The forest breaks just up ahead. Then there’s a real path.”

The wind blasts you in the face first. You pass the threshold, stepping on to a stone walkway. About ten meters from you, the earth descends at nearly a 90 degree angle, 100 meters into the ground. The gusts of a three-tier waterfall sing mist into the air, moreso as you ascend the stairs towards the bridge across the gorge.

“You think Ace stopped before the drop?”

“No. In fact, I bet he thought he could make the leap and is now a floating corpse down stream.” Sabo says this without even the slightest change in expression. Yeesh - creepy.

You cross the bridge - what used to be for trains - and enter a more temperate part of the forest, walking along the source of the falls.

Not too far in, beautiful Glass nymphs, their glossy, pristine sheen a testament against the work of time, prancing along the river bank, some already swimming in the drift, more ahead gallantly jumping and twirling down the path. Truly, works of art, almost too perfect, too life-like, but frozen still as sculptures, warping the forest with their transparency. Sabo studies each one with a hand on his chin, smiling.

You both come to rest near a smaller set of falls. He sets his hat on his knees and leans against you, simply soaking in the quiet babbling of nature.

Which is … really not quiet at all - especially on the account that Ace is now running around somewhere, chasing something, and that something is big enough to scare half the forest.

Still, perfect. You wouldn't have it any other way … okay maybe a little less fire.

“We’re close. Less of an incline from here.” There’s a surprise ahead you can’t wait to show them.

“I want a nap first.”

“Taking random naps is Ace’s job.” You giggle.

“Hey, stop slacking you two! I want to reach the top.”

“We’re taking in the scenery Ace, maybe you should join us.”

“But you said we can have LUNCH at the TOP!”

Sabo sighs, running a hand through his hair, “Alright, alright, fine. One final stretch.”

And finally, you reach your, “Destination.” Up here, the grass is long and golden, slicked over by the soaring winds riding just above the treeline, letting the three of you see out miles across the forest, many ablaze with fresh green, while some still cling to their red and orange leaves all the way from last fall.

“Echo!” Ace yells, laughing when he gets a reply.

“Follow me, I’ll show you where we can sit for lunch.”

Further back from the slope, grass turns to pebbles, then rock, then boulders, which you finally come to a rest on. “Look closely.”

Ace takes that very literally, pressing his nose to the rocks, “Hey, there’s a lot of carvings here. Wait-”

“They’re fossils!” Sabo smiles with glee, turning over a chunk in his hand, etched with spirals and shiny deposits of where trilobites and worms died millions of years ago.

"The truth is, this whole place used to be underwater. Trillions of little creatures formed the sediment at the bottom of the warm sea."

“Incredible…”

“Think there might be any dinosaurs?” Ace says.

“Mmmmm probably not, but you can try looking for one.” And by some miracle of nature, lunch is completely forgotten in his search for the biggest fossils he can find, while Sabo studies each one closely.

"Ace you can only take so many rocks…"

"But I've got to get presents for everyone!"

"You're going to carry 1600+ rocks with you?"

"................."

Oh no. You and Sabo both know that look. He's using a braincell.

The freckled man smirks, before taking off, Sabo hot on his trail.

"DON'T YOU EVEN DO WHATEVER YOU'RE GOING TO DO!!!"

After stopping Ace from breaking off a whole side of the mountain for fossils they finally sit down for a picnic on the windy bluff, the force enough to keep bugs from flying in for a bite to eat - but also required hunkering down everything that might want to go for a joyride in the sky.

“I don’t envy the trip back, but I will admit, it was worth it.”

You smirked, “Told you so. And you survived.”

“Ha-ha!”

Sabo turns, “Ace I said no more boulders.”

“You said you didn’t want to walk all the way back down right? I found a faster way down!"

“Wait please-” But Ace already has the hold of the two of you under each arm.

“HERE WE GO!”

And then you’re all skidding down the mountain on a slab of rock at the speed of light.

"ACE I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!!!"

I Won’t Leave You Alone

Just shotgunned Bee&Puppycat: Lazy in Space on Netflix and I just want to say this is the MOST tumblr SHOW that has ever BEEN Made or will likely ever BE Made unu

More Thoughts(Spoilers, obvsl):

This is such a weird, unique and wonderful show and frankly it’s amazing to think that it ever even got this level of making.

This is a show about how dreams can be Disappointing and Bad.

This is a show about the drawbacks to dreams: about how they can Infest and complicate life; about how Horrifying and Off-putting they can be. It’s about how Sometimes your dream might be to AVOID doing a thing, and that might not be entirely bad, and about how DOING something about your dreams might not be entirely good. It’s about maybe not even really having dreams to begin with, or having Impossible dreams(like always being young and beautiful). It’s about learning to live with ALL of that. It’s about, Sometimes, giving up on them, and why that happens and what it means, and how much BIGGER that question is than “good” and “bad”; “self-affirming” and “self-destructive”.

This is a show about Waiting, and Procrastinating, and Existing; the good, the bad, the stress-inducing, the rewarding and affirming.

It is a show about “Love” in all its complexity: Where it is as much antagonism and annoyance, and Disappointment, and Burden and Hurt(intentional and otherwise; Selfish and otherwise), as it is affection and warmth and physicality and Sex and companionship and Being There and Caring: where Presence and Absence collapse into the Same Damn Feeling.

It is a show about GENUINELY appreciating people for who they are, not what they can do or who you think they are or can be, and about NEVER trading People for Dreams(the upsides and the downs of that)

It is a show about how much birthday’s Suck, and also are Awesome.

It’s a show where the fake employed fake-doctor college dropout sibling of a main character that’s not even in 70% of the episodes gets a homeless bi[1] failed wrestler pregnant, and at no point are these characters treated unsympathetically.

It’s a show where every protagonist is marginally employed and barely hanging by a thread and where Antagonist is a Job-description.

It’s a show where the main character is both appreciated and loved for being the primary parental[2] figure and emotional/physical/financial support for everyone in the cast, and also widely seen(justifiably!) as an annoyance, life-roadblock, and nexus of Havoc in their lives, and yet never at anypoint feels Unloved by any of them.

The most successful(non-Pretty Patrick uvu) person in the show is also the most annoying and Instantly hateable.

It is a show where the morality and notions of capitalist society are Alien, Dangerous, Exploitative, Incomprehensible, Invasive, and fundamentally Corrupting; where money is a constant need and spent as soon as it’s attained.

It is a show where the most responsible person is a child forced to be a landlord, and how horrible every part of that sentence is.

This is a show THOROUGHLY and PROUDLY about “burnouts” and “losers”, which loves them in their every aspect without ever denying the veil of dread hanging over their lives.

Everything is INFESTED with Twee. Nothing is ever explained. Everyone is both sad and happy; both motivated and aimless. Everyone. is LIVING. So Much. And so much THEMSELVES, all of the time.

I A D O R E It OwO

[1]And in the most hilarious way. She doesn’t even care enough about him to remember his name at any point all season(tho neither is she ever mean or cruel to him. He’s a Prop and she respects her Props). Her having sex with him honestly feels more like pitch-foreplay with his sister, her One True Hate, than anything else. They honestly make it one of the most Lesbian acts of WLM I’ve ever seen on television XD I want to talk about Toast’s relationship to gender ALL DAY. I Want. To STUDY HER >:> >:> >:>

[2]This probably isn’t entirely the case, but we hear licherally nothing about the Wizard parents aside from them forgetting a child’s birthday, and then being entirely blase with him running away to the circus for TEN! YEARS!! But, to be Scrupulously Fair: their family name IS Wizard u_u u_u

Edit:[3]Also, I initially forgot to include this, but B&PC is so obviously part of the Crystal Gems universe that it HURTS :| Specifically a Toothache :| :|

Edit 2:[4] Also-Also, there is just SO much kink in here, like ohmygod; none of it is explicit obviously, this is a PG show, but this team made SUCH a mockery of that rating and modern censorship, they met all the requirements and STILL put what they wanted in there, and I found it impressive.

[5] Also-Also-Also Natalie Wynn did some voicework for this???? The part’s super-small, but I thought she did a good job uvu uvu uvu

So here's a run down of my thing with Aemond and Aegon. Just what I like, and remember I don't care what anyone else thinks 🤷🏾‍♀️

Aemond: I love him. I love the ruthlessness and unhinged maniac in the book accounts. I also love the fact that show Aemond respects his mother and him not being so accustomed to female attention is also another fascinating choice that makes sense (because of his disability not working in his favor). Although I'd have loved to see him kiss each of the Baratheon girls before choosing one to betrothe (because again, book Aemond). Oh, and I love the Aemond that lives in my head, the one I write about in my fanfic. So there's that.

Aegon. Aegon. Love the book loser that rises to the occasion of becoming King when Criston tells him his family's life is on the line. That he hardened into the king people either expected or feared when his family was destroyed. And that in the long scheme of things he chose his family, to honor them and remember them. Even to his stubborn, bitter end he was still mourning and missing them!!!

Show Aegon started as a funny, entertaining character until he devolved into an older creep, of course without even full view of said offenses. He's a skeleton so far without flesh and I'm not expecting the writers to do him justice, at least not enough, because Rhaenyra needs to be superior to him and for that he has to suffer some if not several character assassinations.

I don't like pitting the brothers against each other but if the writers are not careful they'll push the fandom in that direction. The beef between Aegon and Aemond is honestly a waste of time for me, not aided by the fact that people want them to fight over Helaena (which is a whole other story but that needs mentioning).

I believe both brothers had their awesome moments in the book and new awesome moments rich with positive character development can also be created for both men on the show without having it become a competition of which brother is better than the other.

Their life journeys and arcs are so different for me so taking moments from one and handing it over to another makes zero sense which again, was the show writers' poor choice e.g the whole searching for Aegon with Criston thing was utter bullshit. And Aemond being subconsciously framed as the better choice, also another invention.

All I want is for these boys to be BROTHERS. But at the moment they're giving Viserys/Daemon in the first half of s1. With a simmering rivalry between them tied to power and envy, which for me is redundant and boring.

Aemond will be Regent and I will cheer. I just wish I didn't have to watch him whine about Aegon all the time before he gets there.

The same goes for Aegon. I want no more of that made up story about him wanting nothing to do with his family, of not caring about them, of wanting to abandon them at a whim.

It's just tiring. The book wasn't perfect, I always say. But that doesn't mean the show had to change up or invent so much at the detriment of the character dynamics and the plot.

#a struggle #i love both my boys #but please for the love of God #I can't bear this beef between them #it is tiring and boring and I hope s2 will end it #aegon ii targaryen #aemond targaryen

I love Infinite honestly. He's such a chuuni fuckwit. Shadow the hedgehog called him a loser and he responded by dedicating himself to being the most edgy boy possible. He's "PLEASE TAKE ME SERIOUSLY" the character, and I think that's honestly a really engaging angle for a villain to have. A loser who nobody takes seriously who's armed with a fuckin atom bomb. Someone who's comically pathetic, but presents a material danger despite it. Someone who's equally dangerous, pitiable, and laughable all at the same time. I love characters who contrast in and of themselves. Travis touchdown is one of my favorite characters because he's simultaneously a cool awesome sword fight man... and also a total dweeb, but neither of those aspects de-legitimize the other. I think in infinite's case there's cool potential for him to be like... genuinely a good fighter, but he can't get the respect he craves because his edgelord act is too silly and counteracts it.

8 shows to know you

Tagged by @dual-domination - thank you so much!

All right, I'm going to go chronologically rather than by current importance, and yeah, I'm going to show my age a little bit. So without further ado...

1 - The Monkees

When I was a kid, I first watched the Monkees on reruns (this was the 80s), and I fell for their shenanigans and music - to this day I still hum Cheer Up Sleepy Jean some mornings. I was a Mickey Dolenz fan, but I loved all of them equally. When I got *older*, I did discover fandom and fanfic... that was a fun personal update lol.

2 - The A-Team

OMFG where do I start... Did I mention I love shenanigans? Because these boys may be former military but the show is FULL of shenanigans. I laughed my ass off, honestly. When I grew up, my opinions on certain things developed, and it's hard to watch the show the same way... but it will always have a special place in my heart.

3 - Various Saturday Morning Cartoons & Shows

All right, I can't list them all because this list is only for 8 shows, but Saturday Morning Cartoons (and Saved by the Bell) were the best things ever growing up! And I think they really helped develop my sense of humour ;)

4 - Star Trek: The Next Generation

And here we are, my first foray into true addiction and obsession. Didn't have the internet yet, which was probably a really good thing because I'd have spent all my time reading fanfic. As it is, this was when I made my first foray into it with a self-insert fic about the ship meeting a new alien species led by a young girl with blue hair and sparkling pink uniform who would draw the eyes of young Wesley Crusher... omfg I was young, okay!!! That fanfic never saw the light of day, thank goodness. But this show IS the reason I got to meet a Klingon and a Vulcan when Paramount took over Canada's Wonderland and did a Star Trek exhibit :D

5 - SeaQuest

This show was so significant in my life that I should REALLY list it twice. I watched it when it first aired, at least the first two seasons - either the 3rd never aired where I live or I missed out on it for some other reason - and loved it so so so so much. I think one of the things I initially loved about it was that it wasn't just a military vessel - it was both science and military, and the conflict between the two was often a significant plot point - well, all that and the talking dolphin. But the characters were magnificent, the episodes were engaging even when they got silly... and then years later, I got onto the internet, fell in love with TV show #6 which prominently features one of the actors, and my love for seaQuest got renewed to the point that I even wrote for fanzines back in the day, and created a little internet fan thing called "Tim O'Neill's Cunning Linguists" - yes, I do love a good pun ;)

6 - Xena: Warrior Princess

I can't describe HOW MUCH this show was important in my life. Honestly. It's the reason behind my foray into fandom. My love of Ted Raimi renewed my love of SeaQuest, and Joxer was a character that my 'loser' self related to more than anyone else, and the fact that he was accepted as part of the group meant so fucking much to me! I made awesome online friends through this fandom - JoeyRZ and CrystalBlue in particular - and to this day, I can remember Shamenka's "The Fool and the God" almost word for word because I re-read it so damned much. I'm team "The last season didn't happen except for Virgil because he's adorable". So yeah, there's no true knowing me unless you know about my love for this show.

7 - The Rise of Phoenixes

It's funny that there's such a huge time period between #6 and #7, but even though there were many shows I loved and enjoyed, none of them had a real profound effect on me... until this one. I honestly don't remember how it happened, but a few years ago someone introduced me to harem games on mobile, and the players of the game began talking about CDramas they enjoyed. At the time I was skeptical, had never really watched much from other countries before, but I spotted The Rise of Phoenixes on Netflix and I happened to have an account, so one day I thought, what the hell? I binged the whole fucking thing! And I didn't find the subtitles off-putting - in fact, I think I've come to prefer watching everything in subtitles since I'm hard of hearing, and when a show's in another language, it gives me the excuse to do so >.< But yeah, this show was my introduction to CDramas, Ni Ni was gorgeous as hell and I adored her, and it's the reason I am where I am in fandom today. Which brings me to...

8 - The Untamed / CQL

It was really hard trying to find an image that accurately reflects my feelings about this show, but I think this does it enough. Wei Wuxian's story was wonderful and engaging and addicted me instantly, and his love for Lan Wangji was evident despite them having to keep the BL quiet for the sake of the Chinese censors. But Nie Huaisang's story, that's what made me go "There's more story to be told here... I wonder what people are writing about it in the fandom. There *MUST* be a fandom for this show, right?"

*Ahem* Hundreds of fics read later, my AO3 now lists me as author to 90 fics in this fandom, I've taken part in many events (and still am!), I've pioneered ships and supported others, and I've been having the time of my life, all because of these boys. I continue to watch other CDramas - from Word of Honor to Blood of Youth - but none have engaged me as much as The Untamed, the show that I binged and then, after the reveal of the final episodes, rewatched the entire thing immediately after. If you're following me on Tumblr these days, you know how I feel about this fandom :D

If you've read this far and want to join in, consider yourself tagged :-p

read ur post about being 21 and i thought it was sweet. do u have anything for being 16? i feel like i’ve been really all over the place especially with my mental health and all i can really reassure myself with is just the fact that this is probably just what being a teenager feels like :,)

my best advice for being 16 hmmm... well a lot of it would be the same as my advice for being 21!! like don't stress too much, it's all going to work out better than you can imagine, get some exercise every day, eat your vegetables, call your friends. small joys. it's really the best part of being alive at any age. but here's some random bonus teen wisdom

delete all your social media. ok just kidding but at least try to be really conscious of using it. when i was 16 it was literally impossible to avoid instagram and everyone was on snapchat ALL THE TIME and if you weren't, like, actively snapping at all hours of the day -- you were a loser. now all i can think is how much time i wasted on those apps!! obviously a huge part of being a teen is connecting with your peers and being on social media is a big part of that because, honestly, your peers are also on social media. but i would just try to be conscious of your screen time! and i don't mean that in a condescending "kids are always on their phones these days" kind of way, but just to say -- i know how addicting it can be and i also know how damaging it can be to your self-esteem to spend hours every day looking at 22 year old models who have more money than you've ever had in your life. nothing is worth that! not even being able to gossip about the models with your best friend. that's not to say you can absolutely never check their instagrams and tiktoks and whatever else is cool these days -- but just be careful, and try to be mindful of what you're doing. don't let it be mindless.

school is cool! learning is exciting. don't let people tell you it's dumb. learning new things is great and being able to be a more complete citizen of the world is one of the best parts of growing up. don't beat yourself up for things you don't understand yet. i don't think i was able to really grasp a lot of politics until i was at least 17 or 18. and i couldn't really articulate myself well about any of it until i was 21 or 22. that's okay. you don't have to know everything. the world is a big place and there's a lot to learn. read books that are too hard for you. listen to conversations where you don't understand half of the words. watch movies that go over your head. just approach it all with an open mind, listen to lots of different ideas, take everything in. the rest will fall into place.

let yourself be immature! don't feel shame about your interests being "too young," or not drinking alcohol even though other people do it sometimes, or not understanding the references people make to things you've haven't experienced yet. it's totally fine not to know about any of that. you don't have to be in any kind of hurry to grow up. watch cheesy television shows and read your favorite ya novels and get overly-excited about bad movies. you have the rest of your life to get old. there's no prize for making it to adult life fastest. childlike wonder is awesome. don't lose it, and you'll never have to find it again.

you're probably about ten times cooler than you think you are. all those people who you think are judging you are probably jealous of something you have that they don't. so don't get too down on yourself -- it's not a good use of your time! instead, work on building yourself up. write yourself motivational stickies and put them above your mirror. take a long bath and make a fancy drink in the morning and truly eat whatever your heart desires. (when i was 16, i went through a phase for a few months where i ate mashed potatoes for breakfast every morning. i would make a huge pot of them on sunday and portion them out and microwave them before school. i'm not even joking. and i loved it.) there's no rules. the only rule is to listen to yourself, and then roll with whatever it is that you hear your body and your heart saying. so, if your heart tells you to eat mashed potatoes for breakfast every day, eat the mashed potatoes. it's all part of the process of learning what you like and who you want to be.

you don't have to figure anything out yet. that's one of the best parts of being young -- the process of figuring. i promise, anyone who seems to have it figured out, doesn't. you're not behind. you're right where you're supposed to be. enjoy the ride.

#answered #anonymous #advice tag #I LOVE when you guys ask me things like this MWAHHHHHH #also reflecting on being 16 #it's such a trip lol. i was just vibing #i forgot about my potato phase. that was a fun one

writers asks 📝

22, 45, & 49 please

Yesssss Kelly!!!!

22. A fanfiction cliché you can’t help but love?

Friends to lovers - that’s essentially what Bagginshield is, right?? I’ll never get enough of writing, as well as reading, these losers going from friends in some capacity to being a romantic couple.

45. One thing you love about fanfiction.

ONE thing? Let’s go with how much of an escape it is for me. Honestly, I don’t know where I would be if I wasn’t writing. I’ve been writing for SOOOO long that it’s just...a necessity to me. When people say to “Take a break” for an undetermined period of time, that scares me. Because writing is my escape from my real life stressors. Not to say I don’t take some days off, because I sure do haha, but really, it’s a lifesaver.

Nah, we’re doing two things.

Secondly, I love the friendships I’ve forged through fanfiction. Not only with other writers, but also with fans and friends who share the same interests as me. I’ve made some great friends that go beyond just the fandom stuff, where any conversation can be had and other interests can be talked about easily enough etc. I’m very thankful for fanfiction in bringing us together and giving us the springboard to really awesome bonds.

49. What app/apps do you use to write (word, notepad, etc.)?

I just use google docs when it comes to actually writing my fics - if I’m needing to write on my phone this works perfectly since I can change devices and yet my words are all still there, hooray!

However, I do use “Notion” to keep track of my fics and other various tracking/stat things when it comes to my writing world. I love being organized lol

#raz answers #kelly6ridge #ask game #fanfic is so important to me you have no idea #it's why i drown in ideas and LOVE IT

Metalocalypse #2: “Dethwater” | August 13, 2006 – 11:45AM | S01E02

Frontman Nathan Explosion keeps deleting Dethklok's highly-anticipated upcoming album in a fit of perfectionism. In that same fit of perfectionism he decides that the only way the album will live up to the hype is if the band records it in the deepest place on earth: the Mariana Trench. The record label insists on sending a producer to oversee their activities, which does not sit well with Dethklok. They get down there and record their album, but due to a recording mishap they need to isolate Toki in his own pod to record his track, but instead he sings a lighthearted song about making fish friends. Toki being a sweetiepie is a very good running bit.

The producer winds up loving Dethklok's album so much that he turns his back on the tribunal, who initially had him tapped as a spy. Early on the show was sorta vaguely setting up some grand plot that would become apparent as the show went on. I guess. Honestly, I think I watched every episode of this show and I started losing interest at the end of it and I don't even really recall a whole lot about it. I think I prefer this element as just being more absurd or meta. It's almost like a Saturday Morning cartoon where the main characters just inexplicably have a villain character that hates them and tries to thwart them just cuz that's what you did in a Saturday Morning Cartoon. The fact that Dethklok sorta became a real band because of this show sorta demonstrates that they were backwards engineering this concept; It's almost like if the Harlem Globetrotters became real guys because of the Saturday Morning cartoon and not vice-versa.

The current conversation in the boys DM is about how hideous the animation is for this show, and I basically agree, but I think I find myself appreciating certain aspects of it. Like, the character designs are also really ugly, right? But they also sorta seem like they're supposed to be drawn by amateurs? Like there's the one part towards the end where the producer guy is ascending way too fast in his submarine in order to escape a monster, and he gets the bends so bad that his eyeballs explode, and it keeps zooming in on his face. You can see like jagged tossed-off lines, as though whoever drew it wasn't actually very good at drawing. I don't know man, it's a thing.

EPHEMERA CORNER:

MAIL BAG:

have you ever enjoyed a real life Adult Swim? You don't seem like the public pool type based on your eccentricities in your writing.

The only time I ever enjoyed an Adult Swim was when I was a little kid. All Kids Outta the Pool and into the clubhouse; there’s arcades in there baby!!!

Is it just me or when Will Forte says "THANKS FOR CARING" at the end of the JJ Pepper Videography sketch on Awesome Show it takes the air out of the whole bit? It feels like an SNL instinct instead of a Tim and Eric one. Sorry, I just don't like it, and I'm not gonna wait for you to get to Awesome Show to ask because I can die any day and you are going simply too slow. It would have been a Legen-DARY sketch if it wasn't for that final line.

I think it’s such a wild and weird way to end a commercial TV that I’m glad it exists.... but! You may be right. It’s just too weird. Is JJ Pepper for real?

Did you skip covering the Space Ghost Coast to Coast Volume 3 DVD set? Is it because of the Pavement menus? Did Stephen Malkmus come to one of your Simpsons Nights and insouciantly tell you he prefers watching sports?

I suspected that I DID miss it, but thought maybe I’d get away with it. But since I’m covering that season for Space Ghost Week maybe I’ll just do an entry for it to kick things off. Or... NOT!

Hm. I'm a moron for just telling you straight up how it is. Okay. Goodbye.

Bye bye! See you hell LOSER!

Here's 10 Ways To Make Your Blog's Mailbag Funner and Funniers. Number 10: Make a Call to Action with every post. This is a surefire way to get people to talk back. Number Two: Lay some ground rules. While no one likes a hall monitor, laying a few ground rules will make people know what to expect when sending you mail. Number Three: Throw in some red meat. Drink Dr. Pepper? Menton it in a blog post. It may not be relevant but a little autobiographical info can inspire some replies. Number Four:

I don’t drink Dr. Pepper. Thanks for caring.

I don't think that bug wars movie that guy was talking about was real. You have some really stupid people reading this blog. Maybe make people solve a brain teaser before they can submit something to you.

Thank god it’s not real. I think the mail bag is at it’s best when it’s an equal mix of smart cookies and sick puppies and I gotta say, COOKIES: STEP IT UP!

WEEK 3 - Wrap Up

KELCE / SWIFT - Why?

youtube

So the big news in the NFL this week was obviously are Kelce and Taylor real? She went to the game. She sat next to his mom. They drove off together in a "very orchestrated" convertible. So, yeah they must be together. But why? Is it a marketing plan put together by the Pfizer people so that Taylor's fan base will want to listen to Kelce on the non-stop commercial urging us all to get the covid vaccine and the flu shot at the same time? Is it to keep Taylor's name out there for the SuperBowl half time show so when she does it - football fans love her? Are is it as simple as Taylor wanting to "feel tiny" like SNL set up in the video above? Honestly, I don't know. But, it's gonna be fun to watch and find out! Now, on to week 3 wrap ups!

TuPADRE vs TRADE WITH ME

Hey! TuPadre figured out how to load the gun! Boom! Just like that in week 3 they come away with a quick win against Trade with Me. Poor Brett. Loses Survivor. Only puts up 51 points total from his team. I guess it's better than losing by .50 of a point. Gully had great performances this week from Watson, Moss (zack not randy), Deebo, and Tyler Bass. Going into Monday night he still has Higgins to play. Probably won't get high point but week 3 goes down as a win for TuPadre and Son. Nice Win Gully! Congrats. Brett moves to 1-2.

MR AWESOME vs TREE HUGGERS

What else can be said. Scott Krippayne is finding Fantasy Football EASY this season. 3-0 start and came in this week with not only the high point of the week with 156.76 but also the high point of the season! I am just glad to not have to send it to the Moose! Nice win Scott! Devante with 34, Bills D with 36 (almost had a shut out and would have bumped it up to 46), hell even his kicker had 18 and I don't think he picked him up in round 8. NICE! Now, where there is a winner there is a loser...and once again that loser is Gabe Scott. Gabe moves to 0-3. I am not going to dig into the details. He just scored less than Scott...so he loses. Sorry Gabe. Next week you face Kyle Allmendinger who used up all his points this week so you have a good shot!

MALIK MY BALLS vs BACKDOOR BANDITS

Well, this sucks. Kyle is done for the week...finishing with 131. I am down 50 points with 4 to play on the two MNF games (Mixon, Evans, Atwell and Bengals Defense). 50 divided by 4 is 12.5 points per player. That's what I have to accomplish. Kyle had a great week from Lamar (33), Jefferson (25), Patriots D (17) and really had double digit performances from everyone but Brandin Cooks so if I can pull out the win it will be epic. I chose this GIF because whatever happens that will by my expression. At half time of the Bengals/Rams game it all looks promising...I am down 10...but time is running out for Evans who already has a dropped TD. Also had a TD from Atwell - taken away cause his heal touched the out of bounds line...and so 5 min left in the game i am down 1.06. At the two min warning I am up by .54 - but with a last min Atwell TD - I won 135 to 131. Shout out to Kyle for being a cool competitor this week. Fun Win for me - hard loss for him.

MOOSES ON THE LOOSES vs HOWARD

So this one is a crazy match up. Moose who is currently undefeated has 99.78 but has one of the most explosive rookie WR's in the game yet to play - Puka Nacua. Howard has 65.4 points going into the Monday night matchups but has 5 yet to play - Kyren Williams, Chase, Goedert, Swift and kicker for the Bengal - McPhearson. I am thinking with it being the NFL week of Taylor Swift - DeAndre Swift might have a big night (which he did) and help Howard get this to a close game with the Moose by nights end. A half time update...Nacua has been held to 35 yards and Howard has taken the lead by 1 point. But as the game went on - and Jamaar Chase got on fire - Howard could not be caught. Rob Howard takes away the perfect season from the Moose! Great job Rob. Congrats. What a night!

FUNK GUY vs LANAKILA

This one should be a no brainer but I can see where Funk Guy might be a bit nervous. He is down 15 but he has Jalen Hurts left to play...facing Cliff who still has the Eagles star kicker Jake Elliott. Can Elliott put up double digits numbers? Can Hurts have multiple rushing TDs and rush for 100 yards and throw for 300 yards? Will it be a blow out or a close one? Well, I can answer that now. It was a close one and even though Hurts put up 21 and had a great game, the kicker put up 11! So Funk Guy loses in another very close one. Cliff with an awesome week from Mahomes with 31, Olave with 15 and a game winning night from his kicker!

LONG LEFT BALLERS vs BOOMER SOONER

Well, I am not going to post what comes up when I search the GIF using the word "Tight"...as in - it's going to be a tight game. The night started out - with Stu with 92 and Bebo with 91. Stu has Rachaad White and Bebo with DeVonta Smith. 1 point difference. 1 player left for each guy. This one really didn't move much. By the end of the Eagles game...Stu only had 4 points from White but Bebo still had Higbee playing in the LA game and Higbee already put up 5 so, Bebo clinched early in the night. Bebo Norman, like Scott Krippayne is undefeated after week 3. Stu moves to 1-2. Great game guys.

SURVIVOR

Bye Brett. Bye Bebo...but who is left? We are down to 7. Krippayne, Mitch, Gully, Howard, Dana, Stu and Kyle. Good luck in week 4!

CHEERLEADER OF THE WEEK

Noella Maria of the Oakland Raiders is our featured cheerleader tonight. Noella is a freelance makeup artist and from her instagram looks like she loves going to Coachella, Disneyland and hanging with her friends. I am thinking perfect for Brett Rutledge. Let's go!
