Your reblog about the senti thing make me LOLing so hard because of the senti defender when shoved a fact that contradict their theory mostly act like "Yeah, I didn't think that far" except they never said it out loud!
I remember when s4 still airing and these senti defender said "senti lives matter!" But whenever I ask, "what about that lolipop thing? Feast? Senti Moth?" They always said "They don't have the same level of intelligence as senti human, probably only at the level of animal"
So basically they said it's ok to kill a senti as long as they either don't looks like human or they have low intelligence. This came from the same people who preach that sentimonster is a good methapor for abuse or disabilities.
In the end it boil down to "if hero kill it, it's good but if villain kill it, it's bad" double standard and I couldn't even fathom what so good about the whole sentimonster!human thing except to make an obedient puppet.
"Yeah, hope Chat can have a upgrade power that could destroy the connection between amok and the senti" they said. Except he already did. TA said in his tweet the reason why Reflekdoll or any senti that gone berserk due to the cataclysm is /exactly/ because the connection was destroyed. It didn't free them, it make them berserk. And ironically, this tweet also what make people think the reason why Chat Blanc is so feral is because half of his amok got destroyed, instead of the long isolation and guilt that eat him.
Also a so called child psychologist preach the whole sentimonster is good methapor for abuse thing make me facepalmed, hard. Why need methapor if it's so obvious? Is miraculous going to put on disclaimer : Attention, no real child is being harmed here. Why take the whole abuse theme if they're not going to do it correctly? Who the heck approved this kind of theme??
Sorry for the long rant and thank you for reading my incoherent rant.
Tumblr media
You said it, anon.
The Sentimonster theory is a shitty metaphor for abuse or disability. What it says to me is that if your disability isn't convenient or "normal," then you don't matter. Hence the "human" Sentimonsters like Adrien, Felix and Kagami who can fit into society are accepted, but the other Sentimonsters are disposable, despite them having the same amount of sentience and life as any of the human ones.
So Senti lives matter, but only if they're a particular type of Senti. If not, then they're not really alive and can be disposed of without a single thought spared to them (even though that's not true, because Felix treated Red Sun like a sister, and Feast, Sentibubbler, etc. clearly had emotions). Which means... only socially acceptable Senti rights matter. The rest of them only exist to be killed by the heroes. The heroes get to decide which Sentis matter and which ones don't, and the only ones that matter to them are the ones that look like them.
And like... if you're going to have an arc about making us understand that these creatures are just like us and have a life and emotions of their own, then don't create classes and divisions between them from the get-go. Don't portray some of them as more worthy than the others. Nothing in the show suggests that the creation of Adrien, Felix or Kagami was in any way different from the creation of Feast or any other Sentimonster. The argument that they are different because they were created to be humans is also bogus, because of Sentibug. She was created not to be a human, but to be a copy of Ladybug, yet she still had free will. All the justifications for this theory fall apart if we think about it for more than 5 seconds.
And the whole Chat Blanc thing you mentioned is part of a larger problem in this fandom, which involves attributing common reactions to abuse in abuse victims to them being artificially created beings. Adrien listens too much to his father? It must be because he's a Sentimonster and is being controlled, not because Gabriel has conditioned him to be subservient to him all his life! They are literally saying victims of abuse and their reactions to abuse are "unnatural," and can only happen if they weren't human at all. I despise this implication, especially since the show doubled down on it.
And it's not like this was a necessary writing choice. What does Adrien being a Sentimonster contribute to his's character? What did the revelation that he's being mind-controlled help us understand about him? What new facet to his character did we learn about? Nothing, really. There is no exploration of what Adrien being a Sentimonster means for him. He doesn't even find out about it. The only reason Adrien became a Sentimonster is so that the writers could justify leaving him out of the finale and so that they could have an obstacle for Adrienette. And I will say, introducing the whole "Sentimonsters deserve free-will" plot point and then using the characters' Senti status as an excuse to deprive them of agency in their own battles is... certainly a choice.
The Sentimonster theory isn't this groundbreaking exploration of the concept of humanity and free-will, nor is it this subversive metaphor for something that was already being portrayed blatantly in the show. It's something the writers used as a plot device to justify removing the three most plot relevant characters from the story so that Marinette could have the finale to herself. That's it. There's nothing more to it than that.
Which is why the concept is so poorly developed. The whole Senti rights thing is brought for about five minutes in Emotion and maybe two minutes in Pretension. After this, Felix, the main advocate for Senti rights himself falls back on all his ideals and creates a Sentimonster to use and then kill. The heroes have spent three seasons killing these livings creatures without a single care in the world. The moral implications of this are never questioned in any way, even though the show pretends it's presenting this thoughtful and nuanced commentary on the matter. No one cares about Sentimonsters. Sentibug is presented as this big deal, but they don't think about her for more than five seconds and then she is never brought up again. Sentimonsters do not matter in this show. Not to the villains, not to the heroes, not even those who start of advocating for them stick to that cause. The narrative doesn't care about Sentimonsters. Any justification made for it just paints in a worse light. It's a shitty metaphor for anything, and it's just a shitty plot point in general.
Thank you for your ask!

also btw back to all the building the courage to move out stuff. last night i stayed up late (lol) reorganizing my building-the-courage-to-move-out playlist so that the lyrics tell a chronological story abt what this journey has been like for me and it’s still kind of messy but im proud of it and strengthened by it. i feel like it’s cringe to share it but i want to in part bc it’s another accountability thing so yeah ermmm i hope if anyone chooses to listen to it you’ll take something away from the juxtaposition of it all. here are the different sections / chapters
independent accident (c418): instrumental opener with a relevant title bc i like to start chronological story playlists that way
when will my life begin (tangled) - much more (barbra streisand): describing my home situation. going from kind of innocently being like “hey what if i could be more independent” to “hey what if the dynamics in this house are crushing me slowly. i need to not be in this situation i have to move out”
every single night (fiona apple) - i want love (elton john): more concertedly looking at the state of my life / my mental health situation and realizing how much living here is the source of that and always has been. lol 🤪 and also trying to convince myself that i deserve better and building the courage to ask for it
bloodline / difficult things (orla gartland) - nothing changes (hadestown): telling my family (especially my mom) that im unhappy living at home and want to move out but it blows up in my face. i get guilt tripped / gaslit out of it and it’s agonizing but i entirely lose my ability to remember how much i need this and i accept defeat
the hurt of happiness (hey ocean) - tales of dominica (lil nas x): the headspace ive been in for the last year or two of being depressed out of my mind and sinking in quicksand and losing all sense of hope that i will ever become an independent adult and not live here <3
need 2 (pinegrove) - new person, same old mistakes (tame impala): the chapter (i hope) im in cureently of realizing like… hey. i do have the strength. i am an adult and i choose my life. i will do this and be strong and it will be very hard and destructive but it will be okay. (i feel like the song im currently “on” is new person, same old mistakes lol. where i know i need to do it but have my familys voices in my head telling me i can’t)
quiet (matilda) - goodbye yellow brick road (elton john): AUGHHHH the most emotional part of the playlist. every song in this section makes me want to cry and sometimes has. this is when i will finally build the courage to actually say im moving out and act on it for real and the absolute wound that is going to rip me open and destroy my entire world <3 i feel it all (feist) is the OK IM GOING TO DO IT NOW AND ACCEPT THE CONSEQUENCES song and tactics (japanese breakfast) is me like… actually beginning to tell my family. aughhhhh ahghhhh augghhhhhhh.
when will my life begin reprise (tangled) - wildewoman (lucius): the aftermath where im hopefully happy and thriving and growing into my independence! :~D
this playlist (which i made specifically abt my experience of moving onto campus in aug 2021) + this playlist (which is kind of a messy look at like.. learning how to drive and having experiences of independence etc etc) also overlap a lot with the last 3 bullet points so i need to go through them and add more songs to this one too lole. they’re not organized to tell a story iirc but they’re also worth a listen (maybe on shuffle) and those songs may change what this playlist looks like when i add them but yeah this is the playlist as of rn :~D thank u for reading / listening if u did i am going to be late for work now but it was worth it to type all of this up

loled to myself this morning at how everyone on earth makes priscilla out to be a vicious heartless golddigger and decided to do 1 second of research into the matter to conclude that as expected, the internet is hysterical and off base. to me, she seems like she’s just out there trying to do her best and handle her enormous life.
disclosure: i did this for my own knowledge because i was curious. i’m not out here trying to engage trolls or tell anyone what to think.
read that she was really hesitant abt priscilla but ultimately thought coppola did enough research and made it “spot on”. she cried when she saw the film. she elaborated by saying that when you live with someone so famous during a crucial part of their life you go through many ups and downs and experience their struggles and fears alongside them. also that all of her/their privacy is hard to give up and hard to share so she doesn’t want to give out too much because she wants some of it for herself - that’s theirs and theirs alone. which, ultimately leads someone with common sense to believe (who didn’t already assume) that the elvis & me novel (and priscilla) are just the most dramatic snippets of their relationship (without lots of context).
she also went on to say that she vowed not to remarry as long as elvis was alive because she didn’t think he could handle it - and not only did she not, but she also kept that promise long after his death. saying she never wanted to remarry after him, that no one “could ever match him”.
i also knew next to nothing about lisa marie and the drama surrounding the estate and/or their relationship - but again, one quick search and applying my years of doing estate work as a paralegal makes it clear that priscilla was challenging the validity of a purported amendment made in 2016 which removed her (and barry siegal) as co-trustees (and instituted lisa’s children instead) to the graceland trust. which fine, lisa probably did want that, but it was stated that in the amendment, lisa’s signature was not her “usual signature”, her name was misspelled, and the amendment was never given to priscilla during lisa’s lifetime which was an expressed term of the trust. it was also never witnessed or notarized. so, given that, questioning its legitimacy is an entirely expected thing to do. it’s hardly insidious 😂. especially during such an emotionally difficult time. a contract is a contract. even if lisa did want to change the doc without priscilla knowing, she was legally required to give it to her and she didn’t. also, a settlement of 1 mil plus a graceland burial is hardly “gouging” of her daughter/granddaughter’s money. graceland is worth what? 718 million? and ppl complain about priscilla getting some money after keeping elvis’ legacy alive and graceland relevant for the past 50 yrs? lordy. not only that but the attorney for riley even stated at the proceeding’s conclusion that everyone is unified and happy and ready to move forward.
but funny how the narrative of “evil priscilla sues her granddaughter” became so popular. this instance is the most uneventful, run of the mill thing lol. obviously we don’t know the absolute truth or facts of the situation (and i did not look up the proceedings), but if a document isn’t witnessed and notarized it’s always ground for suspicion. also, if someone’s signature isn’t their usual signature, it arises the question of coercion or signing not in your right mind. so, like i said, entirely expected and nbd.
priscilla is also human and fallible, so i’m sure she’s made mistakes, bad business dealings or even acted recklessly or spitefully over the course of her lifetime, but she continually speaks to how much she loved/loves elvis, lisa and the family legacy. she clearly still burns a candle for elvis and does her best to keep things moving forward and alive and relevant. i don’t blame her for wanting to make sure things are secure and in order as she gets older.
i also know practically nothing about lisa, but it seems like she was troubled (?) to some extent (she reminds me of britney spears a little in that way), so i’m sure some of priscilla’s “controlling and hovering” over her life was misconstrued protectiveness and burden-bearing. i’m sure mistakes were made, but i highly doubt she was the manipulative vulture ppl make her out to be. (it’s like the britney situation - everyone advocated for her “freedom” when in reality she’s clearly ill and her state rn is pretty questionable imo).
i also don’t blame priscilla for not having issue with priscilla being made. it’s controversial but it’s 2023 and she probably figured it was timely and likely to get good reception. she’s surely had an incredibly difficult life, and wanting some of her truth (the ugly truth) to also be known and added to the legacy must be validating. because elvis was a flawed person, a product of his time, and likely very cruel at times.
anyway those are my two cents and i think the internet is a plague. not looking to engage stans or fact police, just wanted to get my thoughts out there. not tagging.

part two of rev ch25!
i realized last night, something else that twigged me about the 'predatory vibes' of that jumpscare of the last scene -- is that if nintendo meant gunter to strictly be read as wholesome, there's been similar scenes in the series where the rescuer/mentor will be seen arriving on the scene, and immediately shaking the protagonist awake. pretty hard to read any malicious vibes in those scenes.
Tumblr media
here? we don't know how long gunter/(anankos) has been there with corrin. it's the unknown that keeps us guessing.
though it also does beg the question: why didn't anankos take the chance to kill corrin while she was totally vulnerable and unconscious for [who knows how long]? is gunter still that much in the driver's seat to at least keep the killing blow from happening?
it's clear that there's "more" of gunter consistently than, say, possessed!mikoto/scarlet/arete. he's had plenty of chances to kill corrin, if he was truly as far gone as they were.
it's honestly why I think a better interpretation is aaaaaaall of this (save the literal two "ENTOMBED GOD" lines that were anankos) was actually, pretty much 100% gunter in the driver's seat. he does have the motivation to lead a, heh, "mostly royals' party down into the bowels of anankos' castle to get slaughtered, and i do actually think the man's willing to shed that much blood on his hands.
he's done. he's laying all of his cards on the table and wanting to go out with a bang. he knows he's not walking back outside from that castle alive.
...which still makes for some deliciously skeezy implications in that last scene ahem
food for thought! anyhoo.
this chunk's a little more conversation-heavy than badhotwrongvibes heavy, lol.
still absurdly fascinating, when you realize that this is actually a three-way conversation of sorts, and not just corrin + gunter thinking out loud companionably. he's not a separate entity from anankos, but there's that tangible sense of him trying to suss out exactly how much corrin suspects and what he can get away with.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
you know, i have to say it's bananas how well he's, hm, masked everything the whole time?
it's not just us being unable to tell "gunter" from "possessed!gunter" -- corrin's known him her own life, and the betrayal takes her even more by surprise than it does us. granted, she's not as suspicious as say, xander/takumi, but still.
Gunter: Then...this same attacker is trying to catch you while you are separated from everyone. Did he or she somehow know that we'd split up? Our original suspicion may be correct, Lady Corrin. Your attacker could be part of our group. Corrin: I know—you and Ryoma both said so before, but we can't be hasty. Scarlet would have hated for us to turn on each other for no reason. Gunter: Scarlet ... You're right, milady. Gunter: The sight of her with that flower pinned to her chest just before the jump... Gunter: I do not wish you to meet the same fate, milady.
bullshit.
Tumblr media
i'm kind of loling in a terribly tasteless way at how lowkey annoyed he seems by the scarlet mentions. 'ah yes i kill one (1) person and you still harp on it'
remember when I was mentioning how gunter very clearly jumped down the bottomless canyon before scarlet/corrin? gunter's goddamn talented about masking / keeping a general eye on the details of not slipping for two freaking decades.
but, uh oh! dearie me, you slipped up there! that's about to get important.
anyway, those two decide enough talk, more action and so they roll up those stairs from the last scene only to run into ... azura.
possessed!gunter's thinking 'fuck yes, i can pin this on her'.
Azura: Is that you, Corrin? Corrin: Azura? I didn't realize you were near… Azura: Corrin, you look pale. You as well, Gunter. Is everything OK? Gunter: What are you doing here, Lady Azura? The only way to get here is by coming down that corridor. I saw no other way… Corrin: Gunter, don't tell me that you think… You believe Azura is the one who… Azura: What are you talking about? What happened?
pause for a second: i want to take a note here about how interesting is it that we're really starting to see him crack in terms of not giving a single shit about his companions, and actively sabotaging the campaign in the open.
up until literally one scene ago, Gunter was always the one mentor figure that could be counted on keeping a tight ship, bringing Corrin useful advice, useful weaponry to dispense to everyone, being an emotionally stable presence, amicably interacting with everyone at base camp and even in the pre-battle conversations (like with Ryoma), grieving along with everyone.
what changed?
as mentioned above, i really, really do think he's preparing himself to drop all the cards on the table and go out with a bang. he's emotionally, actively severing every connection he could with the others. if he never cared about people to begin with, he wouldn't have this psychological tension of abruptly changing and stepping away.
put bluntly: these are not the actions of a man who plans to live out the day.
in pretty much every fates path (including this one), he dies (heavily implied he offs himself) except for the one conquest married path with corrin.
we're very close to finding out exactly why.
...
very conveniently, enemies warp in.
Tumblr media
but the battle doesn't start quite yet until after this last revealing conversation. corrin tells azura to call in everyone else for the fight, and for the first time you see gunter come as close to rejecting her orders as he's ever come.
this sounds neurotic, but pay attention to the ellipses (...). Treehouse as a rule doesn't really sprinkle a lot of ellipses in the EN script, so when they are applied... usually the character's going under some kind of turmoil.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
this conversation is lowkey emotionally eviscerating when you know what's coming up.
he specifically throws that line back at her ("you can't stop believing in people") viciously in the next chapter as part of his betrayal, intensely enough that I really believe that's a hell of a raw wound for him, especially with how he words it here in a way that sounds remarkably bitter.
...
anyway, among the enemies that warped in -- remember that cloaked attacker all the way back in the chapter that Mikoto got killed?
turns out her old possessed hubby killed her, and we get treated to this awesome still of possessed!Sumeragi.
(dude your shark teeth are whack and i kinda want them lmao)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
and theeeen the battle starts in earnest!
nothing with gunter happens until after the next level, so next time we pick up? it'll be chapter 26, the vallite king. :')
dysfunction junction and a fuckton of feels, here we come.

Hi Miss Em ! I just want to say that I read the new chapter and honestly I have never felt more frustrated with someone in a fic than now, like Viserys just pushed all of my buttons and installed a new rage in me I never knew I had. I truly resonate with Daemon's line and what a beautiful line to describe the whole feeling for half of the fic-
his hope turns to ash
I honestly felt that pain when a parent/brother doesn't understand what your going through but somehow manages to listen and understand to everyone else.
After watching the show I finally understood who had attempted the murder of Babey and her babies. But to see that in this chapter and him being so smug about it pissed me off as well as Alicent's and Otto's highass ( sorry for my language but then again this is a Daemon series we're talking about )
Now I just want Babey and Daemon to leave and never comeback to these assholes, truly terrible people. I want Babey to get her Kepus , her good brother Laenor's and finally her elder sister's comfort, she needs to be wrapped in a blanket and given all the love in the world !
I'm thinking why don't we unleash Ulla, Daemon, Athfiezar together on King's landing, like let them just go mayhem on the whole place for poor babey. I'm also very happy that Blood and Cheese were introduced in this chapter ! This is going to be very exciting !
Hehe sorry I went on a huge rant, thank you for another amazing chapter !!! I may be busy for the coming weeks ( lot of project works ) but I want to say if i don't message anything, please know that whatever you post is amazing and I hope you're healthy and happy 🩷
-🧇
Hey, 🧇! Aaah, I’m so glad you enjoyed! How are you? I hope you’re doing well!
Yeah, Vissie T was a giant wad of dicks in this chapter. From a third-party stance, I do kinda get his inaction; he’s not just Babey’s dad, but the King of an entire continent. He can’t just arrest a dude based on the aggro say-so of his nutjob brother, let alone a member of his own governmental hierarchy. It’d send a really bad message to the Realm as a whole if he were to act without due diligence.
That being said, he is committing the very same mistakes Jaehaerys did; in continually upholding the Realm, he’s simultaneously ignoring or outright rejecting the needs of his own family. He’s caught between a rock and a hard place, unfortunately for him. As a Daemon stan, I hate his guts; as an objective party, I kinda get how he reacts in this chapter. It’s disappointing, but there is just more at stake than an 18-year-old girl’s feelings. Daemon has only very circumstantial proof; it might be enough for him to go on, but not the ruler of a nation.
LARYS IS A FREAK AND I STAND BY THAT. But yeah, I wanted him to be as creepy and inflammatory as possible so that Daemon would have an excuse to beat his head in. Luckily, Daemon’s doing his problem-solving and has got some very iconic peeps in to deal with the guy, haha!
Daemon and Babey and Daeron are getting the hell outta there, home to Dragonstone! She’s lost a bunch of support, but she’ll be gaining some too - that’s a part of growing up, I suppose. We realise how flawed our parents are, we cut out the people who aren’t good for us, and we reinvent our circle of peers. Babey’s pregnancy has disrupted the uneasy peace that has existed in the family - with each opposing side believing they have the political advantage - because what had just been a marriage is now an alliance bearing legitimate heirs for the Blacks side. Thus, the Greens are lashing out in panic, ergo the whole King’s Landing drama. Rhae’s gonna realise that her petty resentments are meaningless in the face of the larger threat, and we’ll get some sis reunion action soon! Yay for Babey reworking her circle. And I totally LOLed at the idea of Daemon, Ulla and Athfiezar taking down the capital - those chaos demons would vibe with that, haha.
Thank you so much for your comment! I always love reading them 😘😘

Dragging Frankenstein - Chapter 20, part 1
Moody lighting, slate claps, here goes! This is honestly my favorite chapter of the entire book. The quandary around the Distressing Damsel, the conflict between the Creature and the creator taking the deciding turn, Victor FOR ONCE proving insight and strength of character? This here. This is why it's worth to read this book. Since my talk about this got way long, I'll split my recap in two parts for once.
I’m quite shocked that Victor actually does some reflection on how fucking clueless he is about the Distressing Damsel, same as he was about the Creature. Not repeating the own mistakes? Who is this, an actual scientist??
Of course, he only thinks about how miserable said mistakes have made him (William and Justine whomst?), so he still gets IT’S ALL ABOUT ME: 21
I LOLed pretty hard at him also, and fucking finally, subverting the Saintly Girl stereotype that was set up all throughout the book, by randomly assuming that the Distressing Damsel might not only be more prone to violence, but also more sadistic about it than the Creature. Don’t worry, honey; he’ll grow into the sadism just fine on his own.
And there’s this: As I noted a few chapters back, Shelley’s God-Adam-Satan parallel has always avoided an Eve character insert. The women in this story are passive and pure; they don’t take on a proactive role. For the first time, Victor acknowledges that this hypothetical woman could be different, and it scares the shit out of him. In his role as God wannabe, it’s ultimately him who chooses not to complete the Creation story at hand. It’s incredible, it’s much too late, but it is a sign of direly needed humility, as he has no power over her.
I’m even more shocked that Victor of all people reaches the conclusion that no one else could reach around here, not Victor’s family in regards to Elizabeth and certainly not the Creature – that the whole ship-at-first-sight thingie might not work out. Like. Where did he suddenly take the brain from (and I don’t mean the one he’s setting into the Distressing Damsel)? No one else around here ever assumed that “he was a boy, she was a girl” doesn’t automatically lead to “they hit it off immediately”.
“She also might turn with disgust from him to the superior beauty of man” …or, y’know, woman. But this reminds me of how the Creature very much gushed about the beauty of Man first; he had a pretty bad boner for Felix, so count it I shall. DAS GAY: 31
Of course, even with the reflection on how unforeseeable the Distressing Damsel is, the book still works on the presumption of absolute superficialness. Perhaps the reason why she’d dislike him is because, y’know, he’s a grooming, self-centered asshole?
And then it gets interesting. Because Victor fears that they might reproduce. That’s for one pretty fucking stupid bc – he’s the one putting the Distressing Damsel together. Just don’t give her a uterus?
But also, he works on the assumption that the Creature absolutely is capable of procreating. And he’s also the one who put him together. Evidently fully functional. Capable of the entire erection AND sperm dealie. DAS GAY: 32
INCEST VIBES: 14
Hey, I’m not here to kink-shame the monsterfuckers, but he’s still kind of the Creature’s father.
Also, gotta love the line “yet one of the first results of those sympathies for which the demon thirsted would be children”. Thanks for lampshading again that the so-called sympathies are really just a case of The Horny™.
And how he trembles at the thought of “little devils”! Didn’t he want to be the father of a new species? How the turns have tabled. Victor is also thinking of future generations of humanity now, and for ONCE not of himself. This chapter is truly baffling. Paul Cantor’s essay (highly recommend) calls that his “abstract benevolence”, in that Victor himself suffers and makes those around him suffer, but mankind as a whole is too big for him to surrender to an incalculable evil.
Eww, the Creature grinning up at Victor during the window while the latter is working on the Distressing Damsel makes me think he gives him a really nasty horny expression.
And that’s the end of the Distressing Damsel, the single female character in this book who had any potential. I will miss her. Reminds me of when I read Dracula and lowkey wanted Mina to change fully because then Dracula would have created himself a powerful enemy out for vengeance. Would’ve been so cool. Why can’t we have nice things?
Left the room, locked the door, made a solemn vow. Uhm, bitch? Maybe destroy the laboratory? Set everything on fire so it’ll never be found, especially by your smartass pseudo-offspring? Dumbfuck.
We get a foreboding night mood (how come I still enjoy these landscape descriptions? Probably bc it’s the only time Victor isn’t talking about himself), and then it’s on. Creature’s turn to talk about himself and how hard his life is! IT’S ALL ABOUT ME: 22

@ihavenoideawhattotypehere that's the truest tags anyone ever gave one of my posts. I loled soo hard I'm dead. Thanks.
Fortunally for him Gotham Riddler is a known hypocrite, he is the biggest hypocrite in the show and we have very big hypocrites in Gotham. So instead of going to the ball pit that bitch will lie about caring to his social aware versions but will refuse to ever touch a poor person.
He will be "yeah rich people suck haha" until the moment Lex Luthor enters the room. Them while the others riot he will give Lex congrats for making his employees pee in a bottle because "this lazzy dumbasses need some harsh work ethic".
This man beats homeless people for fun while wearing the "eat the rich" bottom the other riddlers gave him. Oswald, capitalism incarneted, who lit has an "let them eat cake" scene (witch is ooc because while he would he also should be smarter than that and keep people loyal to him) hates the poor less than Ed (and also is honest about it).
And the funny part is that he isn't even rich. He is one of the poorest of the band (maybe THE poorest). Some of the other Riddlers are independently wealthy (by crime but still) this bitch or lives in a trash apartment or with his sugar daddies (Oswald and/or Lee). But still he is the only one who hates the poor. Even capitalism incarneted TV seller Carrey's Riddler has more social awareness!!

when did you start to role play? and what makes you pick up a muse?
Tumblr media
Soooo I've been staring at this ask for two days now xD cause it's kind of hard for me to answer?
I started kind of on a mix of sites. Roughly around the Sametime DavintArt, Gaiaonline, and MySpace ya know when I was finally allowed to have an email and able to start exploring the internet more for sites that required that. Gaia and MySpace was mostly anime based and oc focused in truth. Used to edit over images from shows to set my charater into that world. DA was more Western cartoons lole SRMTHFG And TMNT 2003 < this was the first rp communityi joined.cause before it was really only me role-playing with a few friends I knew personally. Eventually, I would move away from tmnt fandom for many reasons and then stop ppst art on DA as well in favor of other places. Dropped Gaia when the site got well you know. MySpace I migrated to Facebook like many others did. And that's where I sort mainly rped on cause I saw people uses pages for role play and ...
Guys.
Gals.
Non binary hoes.
I can not express this enough. Facebook role play community was toxic as all fuck!! It was a fucking hell to be part of and I was actively in this hell for YEARS I can not express or stress enough how bad it was enough to make me stright up quit! And I did for a few years.
Then we'll I got intrested in maybe trying again maybe it be fun again on a new site, here. Maybe it'll be different and we'll I'm happy to say that was a good choice and it's nice having another creative outlet outside art and fanfiction that let's me invest into charaters I like in a different way.
And for the second part honestly a mix of reasons.
1. I relate to them in some shape or form and it helps me get into thier head so to speak.
2. Someone suggests it and I give it a shot and fall in love with that charater
3. I desperately need content for them and decide to make it myself xD

Modie Pt.3
Moses: Am I dressed nice enough for you?
Edie: How am I meant to stop kissing you to do anything we’ve planned when you look like that?
Moses: We’ll have to do it all while you’re kissing me
Edie: You have stubble, it’s going to be all scratchy 😻
Moses: I left it cos I had the knowing you’d like it
Edie: It’s what makes you different, always had, mammy and the others all have soft skin, just daddy felt like that
Moses: They might, but yours is the softest
Edie: I am all your soft
Edie: your 💘 outside you
Moses: Can you feel how mine’s beating inside me right now?
Edie: I’m going to, we’re going to be that close again, all day
Moses: [tell her what drug/s you feel like you’re on and all the ways she makes you feel better than that because we’re feeling extra the closer y’all get to seeing each other irl]
Edie: I’m so desperately in love with you, do you feel that?
Moses: I’m going to 
Edie: You will when I can’t wait, when I was so nervous before and now
Moses: It’s cute how nervous you were
Edie: It might come back when it’s time but
Edie: right now I want to jump on you the second you’re through the door
Moses: [an updated eta giving however many seconds that is, because clearly he’s close af to Ali’s house now]
Moses: I’m almost there, I told you there’s that many of them for us
Edie: You did, you were right
Edie: I need a now though, I’m so, I feel like everyone can see
Moses: I need you now too
Edie: You want me to show you my music room, daddy?
Moses: Where the magic happens
Edie: Exactly
Edie: and I can’t go anywhere or concentrate on anything ‘til you’ve kissed me properly, touched me all the places you want to
Moses: You’d frighten your horse if I didn’t calm you down first
Edie: Horses, you said
Edie: or have you forgotten how good I am, I’ll remind you
Moses: What number did I say?
Edie: However many he’s got
Moses: Lucky you’re very good, or I’d have to go back on my word
Edie: You can tell me anything, do anything, I meant that
Moses: I know
Edie: You know I belong to you, in every way it’s possible to be owned by someone, I want that
Moses: Every part of you
Edie: Pin me down, overwhelm me
Moses: A soundproofed room’s asking for it as much as you are
Edie: How long have I been begging for it, daddy taking off my nice outfit and playing with me
Moses: Too long, but no longer
Moses: [because we gotta let you show up and knock, the way I know he’s holding flowers and a soft toy of some kind that’s probably massive even though it’s his bday not hers, never any chill]
Edie: [at least we are giving no one else the remotest chance to get to this door before us, the way we are flying at you, surprising you don’t end up on the cold hard ground with the force we’re jumping into your arms with, squashing this cuddly and lowkey getting stabbed by the stems of these flowers but we do not care, got to also squash him to death, doing such aggressive kisses all over his face as you’re just squealing daddy over and over because he’s here]
Moses: [me like the rest of the fam stay back please you don’t need to see this, Alison especially though I’m sure you’re lurking because you aren’t expecting him to show up at all never mind on time like he has, oh y’all would LOVE to end up on the floor rn but alas he is simply too strong and however hardcore she’s launching herself at him he’d be ready for it, in that sense at least, loling and grinning because he is buzzing to be here as well and blatantly loves her reaction to him being, rip to these flowers that are probably dropping petals left right and centre getting crushed because he’d be holding her so tightly to his chest rn immediately to feel his heart going insane and they would be crushed to their bodies with no fucks given, then just here basically spinning her around like this is a rom com because we’re so !!]
Edie: [bouncing in his arms in the rhythm of his heart which we know is insane, just looking excited to the point of actual mania about this, catching one of these falling petals and putting it in your bra to have next to your heart ‘you’re so romantic, I love you’ is romantic the word you would use with your dad, not really even though yes, this is very much giving but it could just be a misspoken phrase, nbd, making whatever stuffed animal this is give him kisses too, stroking his stubbly face as you do]
Moses: [not you also catching one of these petals and eating it because you said you’d eat her letter and her hair and want to put every part of her in your mouth and to me it’s giving how my boo wants to put Ang’s head in her mouth, that kind of energy but I’ve corrupted it as per haha, I sure hope nobody saw you do that sir because wtf, at least when you’re kissing this stuffed toy back in a very extra rom com kind of snog manner you can pretend it’s playful and you’re just being silly if anyone sees that and it isn’t just how you wanna kiss her but cannot here in this doorway]
Edie: [not you smacking this toy like a fuming child like absolutely not, unhand my father, so jealous, not knocking it out of his hands though because hiding behind how giant it is to do a lightning flash kiss how you want to, pulling his tongue into your mouth with your teeth and licking the remnants of this petal against your bottom lip]
Moses: [this poor toy getting used and abused but did we expect any less, no absolutely not, only letting it drop to the ground when he’s broken the kiss and it’s safe to do so, purely so he can adjust how he’s holding her to really be holding her tighter, as if he was going to drop her if he didn’t this animal but we all know he wasn’t and he’s just doing the most because !! the flowers are definitely gonna end up falling on the floor too, soz not soz, it just shows how little they matter because he flashes the cash and buys her things at any given opportunity anyway]
Edie: [the excited noises are unhinged, PRESSING into him like your life depends on it, doing more aggressive kisses that are almost like nips and going across his jaw to his ear so you can at least whisper ‘is it really you?’ pinching his cheek like you’re making sure]
Moses: [likewise PULLING her into him like both of their lives depend on it nbd, a sound that we can pretend is finally like oi/steady on/be careful/calm down at the nips she is doing but we both know is nothing of the sort and his jaw isn’t tensing because he’s annoyed at how much she’s being like a rational person would be, we’re just trying not to give ourselves away at the gig lol, pinching her back on both of her cheeks harder than she did it because gotta do it even though it isn’t as hard as he’d like to, which turns into a sort of play/tickle fight moment that would be wholesome if he was just her dad and she was a little kid but here is just flirty, like, he’s literally throwing her around and up and pretending to drop her/have her all but touching the floor only to be pulled back into him as an excuse to touch and manhandle her the absolute most + show off to her how strong he is as per]
Edie: [at least the way you are loling and screaming is giving such childlike energy no one is clocking the flirty vibes this is absolutely giving, the heart eyes likewise are just how you’ve always looked at him, nothing to see here, grabbing onto him like you’re actually in fear for your life and don’t just wanna, doing the whole put me down put me down but protesting too much energy so he knows not to]
Moses: [mhmm, the fact that this is the way they have always acted is doing them a lot of favours, if we can call it that when we wanna actually call the police lol, and will continue to, ramped up though we know their antics have been, I like to imagine that instead of putting her down he’s doing the opposite and carrying on these frankly lowkey dangerous antics towards and on the stairs, intending to take her up them to the music room (though I do think we should have Ali stop y’all from actually going up there whether that’s just by appearing like um where are you going don’t you have places to be?? Or if she actually wants to have a word with either Moses or Edie before they go because that kind of cockblock is realistic and I’m not just saying it to build the tension/for my dream’s sake), the way I’d be screaming not in a fun way at how he’s like dangling her about with no fucks given for the peril because I always told everyone off for playing on the stairs, true story about baby Junie] 
Edie: [it will be easy enough to cockblock y’all because everyone else can wanna say happy birthday to you, Junior would want to follow you into the music room so it’s not happening lads, deal with it]
Moses: [ah the joys of having a big fam, have fun actually having to interact with the other peeps that are around sir, Junior especially, even if this man is literally holding her hand after v reluctantly having to eventually put her down so that she can’t go far from him even then]
Edie: [your nephew and actively so because his dad is the best dad of the bunch so you really would know him quite well, the night and day of how you’re acting because she’s here so quiet now because of course you are when the reality sets in, would walk away if she could but we know we cannot without it being a thing ™ just picking up what you can of the trail of petals you’ve left in your wake, purely as a thing to do and distract]
Moses: [yep there’s really no avoiding that kid until a time comes when you can be like soz we gotta go and flee the scene, luckily you do have a full day of shit planned and peeps know you would because he’s that sort of bear whenever he sees her, they are never just chilling, leave get out and put her in the car like she’s a little baby child, lifting her in and doing her seatbelt and all the things, but letting this car just run for a sec and LOOKING at her instead of actually speeding off to your next destination of horse buying like are you okay because clearly not]
Edie: [sorry that when the mood dies the mood DIES as is the nature of what the fuck y’all are doing, still, regardless of that, you would want him to have a good birthday, so you aren’t trying to freak out in his face about it, just looking around his car/van/whatever like you can find out as much what he’s been up to lately as asking him because lowkey, looking up long enough to do a what are you waiting for kind of smile]
Moses: [^^ that is the tea and what y’all get when you’re living like this so you can’t really push her into staying here and having any kind of interaction rn and you’ve gotta just set off to get her whichever horse she falls in love with most in the hopes that’ll cheer her up and change the vibe back/at least distract her from the sad vibes]
Edie: [thanks for being a horse girl, Billie, very handy for us, we’re here hugging our knees to our chest in our seat, turning on the music so we can put on songs that are not us because we know you were listening to us before you got here and we cannot do that right now]
Moses: [maybe I’ll see if I can find any content of her that fits the horse vibe and post it as him, yikes her song would have come on automatically when the car started yeah because he was listening so that’s awks, change that girl so the car ride is semi bearable before y’all have horses to distract you]
Edie: [I has content if you would like it, will send it to you now but truly, the way we’d flinch like absolutely not lmao, hope these horses are not far because only so much you can do to pretend you’re fine when you aren’t fine, whatever music you’re putting on is definitely upbeat and loud af to do that heavy lifting]
Moses: [I’m sure they aren’t with where Ali is living needing to be in the countryside for its farm vibes and thank god because the mood has taken a DIVE, we can equally thank god that y’all have a full day of activities planned to keep on distracting you if the horses don’t cut it, the next, we know being golf/irish football, it was after that my dream kicked off so at least if you do wanna hear that it isn’t an insane tonal shift because some time between this angst and Winola’s feral dream essay]
Edie: [true true, you only have to suffer this silence that is literally deafening for so long before you’re distracted ‘cos you gotta test ‘em out and see who you bond with and he’s gotta do his thing of making a deal for it so you’re not gonna have time to be worrying about what just occurred/what has been, as for golf/irish football, pick which you’d rather because different vibes for each, both have merits]
Moses: [the dilemma of do we want y’all to be walking round a golf course just the 2 of you because on the negative hand it’s time to think again but on the other it’s time alone which could swing things back to a vibe they started on if she is cheered by horses etc, or do we wanna go with irish football which you can only watch and get invested in so you don’t have time to think much like the horse vibes, idk]
Edie: [mhmm but also it’s a crowd so you can have fun/let’s be honest, get drunk, so that’s where I’m personally swinging, whether that makes things better or worse, like you can get drunk whilst you golf too obvs and other people will be on the course but not going ‘round with you so that’s a very different energy lol]
Moses: [very true, let’s go with irish football, I know fuck all about it soz lads but I think it fits the overall vibe better and would be more likely to get y’all to a happier place than golf will]
Edie: [we don’t need to know, it’s fine, it’s not really the point, no offence lads, he’ll be rooting for someone, it’ll be the general atmosphere of a footie match, she picked it because it’s your kind of vibe, me just here thinking about the logistics of the horse though like, will you pick him up later, are you boarding him at ali’s or on the site that you don’t live at currently, no you haven’t thought this through lmao]
Moses: [it sums him up that he hasn’t thought about a single one of those logistics himself and I know for a fact he hasn’t even discussed this horse with Alison never mind asked her if she wants to keep it at hers and he likewise has not given a thought to who would look after it on site until he’s back if it goes there, I literally imagine he’s just gonna tell his sister that she has to until he’s back and Edie has her own caravan there for her bday to be living in if Ali can’t/won’t have it, the audacity of this man and his big life changing decisions he makes on a whim, excuse you sir this is a real live animal]
Edie: [like horses cost thousands per year, you best be intending to cover that boy because Alison will not see an animal suffer ‘cos you’ve not thought about it properly, we all know for that reason she would take it in but again, y’all will have to have a talk ‘cos she’s going to be like excuse me what do you mean and you can’t call her crazy ‘cos she’s not about to freak about the piercings nor you taking her to what is clearly a sketchy pub]
Moses: [thankfully the cost is one thing he can and would cover because yeah he really has not considered a single thing else about this as per usual and I’m sure he deffo would be trying to gatekeep gaslight and girlboss his way around this but as my boo says he truly cannot when it’s clear to everyone yet again how little you thought the horse through, damn, if I was Ali I would be TIRED, he’s like another child this man]
Edie: [we absolutely are but we’ll never be that bitch to say you can’t see your dad because what is that gonna do, make her go behind your back and do it and be against you, so you can’t win, all you can try and do is talk to her/try and make her see when he’s flopping but that’s not easy when Edie is willing to be pretty damn delulu about it all]
Moses: [anyway, I’m gonna drop my dream here because it can go from when they are at this sketchy pub, that fits and you can tell me if there’s any bits you like/wanna carry forward or what bits you don’t and if you wanna go in a different direction entirely, seeing as I had it and I wrote it down lol, bear with because it’s an essay]
*DREAM*
Edie: [the woman is too stunned to speak lmao but honestly, how are you recovering, how can you carry on, just walking around the rest of this day in a literal daze is the only way to describe it because none of this feels even a little bit real, thinking you’ve just lost your mind, nbd, for purposes of writing I’m wondering where we should skip to, like do we wanna do any of these activities or do we know the vibe?]
Moses: [yeah I’m wondering the same thing whether we know the vibes or if any of these other activities are worth discussing cos I don’t wanna go too hard and have too much happen if we’re saying everything in that dream did but as you said how are y’all just continuing on with said activities as if it didn’t lol, maybe we should skip to the meal as the final thing/him leaving? Because like, you’re busy when shopping and when getting tattoos and piercings but you can’t just eat food and cake in silence/even if you did you’ve still gotta say bye]
Edie: [that makes logical sense because you can be distracted by the world and your tasks everywhere else but if y’all are just having a meal alone, which I’m sure your mother talked you into after you trying to make it a whole family affair, like, there’s nowhere to run lads lmao; I know this restaurant you’ve picked for him is giving such STEAK energy because why are men, fighting for your life with your mostly plant-based diet but you’ve never been less hungry anyway so that’s not a problem, when the waiter has taken your order just looking at him literally like what now, as if he’ll have any more of a clue]
Moses: [like obviously we could be EVIL and say your siblings who would be interested in coming have even if Alison has not if we wanted cos they do have some level of relationship with him and we all know Junior would wanna tag along if nobody else, but regardless of if they are along or not he will continue to piss about to try and cheer her whether that���s playful footsie or it’s giving food fight/the Tony and Effy making a face and flicking food scene with the free bread rolls places like that give you, just being a childish dad]
Edie: [We could say just Junior, because Django wouldn’t want to come, the twins don’t know you like that because that’s after you and that just leaves Rio and imagine how deeply awkward that would be lmao, girl be busy because we’re not doing that, the subtle way you can ignore him without ignoring him by just involving Junior in these childish antics because he is one, I know he’s being a rascal and neither of you is doing anything about it]
Moses: [at least Junior is having a lovely time feeling like a big man with his meal and checking out this new tattoo and getting to misbehave because the way he’d be lowkey so annoyed that he cannot get her attention lol, just giving it all to Junior trying to make her jealous like she’s a child of his age and that’s gonna work]
Edie: [living his best life lmao and thank god because the fakery we’re coming at this with truly like nothing happened is madness but we gotta and won’t be swayed from that in front of Junior, absolutely not]
Moses: [casually the most awkward meal of all time, y’all will be so glad when you’ve gotta get this boy back so Ali can vaguely try and calm him down enough to do his bedtime routine which I know damn well this man will have kept him out past with no fucks given because he’s that sort of bear, not you literally playing her song during the car ride back because you wanna get a reaction out of her which isn’t fake, I say sir not in front of Junior please, god knows what this song is about]
Edie: [not you here acting like you didn’t publish this song for anyone/everyone to see, the dirtiest look as your face is BURNING like I can’t believe you’ve done this lmao, like Junior is gonna be asking her questions because he’ll know it’s her obvs like when did you make this, why didn’t you let me help etc etc like omg, here wanting to turn it off so badly but then he’ll be even more annoying like hey I hadn’t heard that before so you just have to let it play, crossing your arms and doing your best to ignore Junior which is no mean feat because he’s 7]
Moses: [when I just know he’s let Junior sit in the front with him and made her sit at the back because he’s annoyed she’s ignoring him so it wouldn’t be easy for her to turn it off if she wanted to and instead this man will be turning it up when she gives him a dirty look about it because petty king, literally here using the fact that he’s aware Junior is also a musical boy and will be bugging her and that he’s most likely to bug Edie out of everyone anyway because most like her and wants to be closest to her (not quite Grace and Rio levels but still), because he knows this child thanks to Ronan being a hands on dad, against her]
Edie: [at least you can lay across the backseats and turn away from them like you’re having a full teenage strop and aren’t having a far more real and existential moment here, covering your ears dramatically so Junior has to stop talking to you, going on your phone because it’s the easiest way to get Moses back here and now for doing this to you]
Moses: [never thought I’d be glad he drives dangerously with kids in the car but thank god he is speeding so the drive back to Ali’s from this restaurant wouldn’t be as torturously long as it could be, the way I know he’s just fully chucking these kids out of the car when they do get back with no intention of coming in to make sure they are sorted or speak to Ali, instead every intention of just driving away because he’s having his own teenage strop as a full grown man]
Edie: [the way we would not go in/would just be staring him down like are you serious right now, standing outside this car like are you going to do what I think you’re going to do or not]
Moses: [not you changing tact and following Junior in like you really care to make sure he’s okay etc purely to leave her standing by this car because so mature lol lol]
Edie: [so glad there are so many places to hide around here because you’re going to need to, you can tell Ali where Edie is, have fun with that, sir]
Moses: [me dying at his audacity to give Ali the brush off as well like soz gotta go I’ve got a long drive back bye under these circumstances, like ARE you gonna tell her where Edie is sir absolutely not because you don’t actually know in the same way you always get deets wrong and so you’ll just say she’s throwing a strop/upset you’re leaving etc etc that kind of vibe and leave Ali to find her like we all don’t know damn well what you did and what the truth is, please leave hun you’ve done quite enough on this day and you haven’t even told her about this horse yet either]
Edie: [my boo says oh you rat, the drama and the angst as she hears him driving off from the barn/wherever else she could be]
Moses: [it does give you the option though to come at me as either of them though depending how you’re feeling so that’s nice, the way this is like a lovers tiff storming off situation has SENT me, excuse me you’re her father not her boyfriend]
Edie: [I’ll come at you as Edie first, even if it doesn’t become a full conversation, giving the same night but later, like he’s had the time to drive back and get this message when he’s there energy]
Edie: Don’t bother coming back for my birthday, or, at least, don’t bother with me 
Moses: [giving even later like you got back and went out despite being in the pub with her before so there’s absolutely not need but you obvs have sorrows to be drowned]
Moses: I wouldn’t, you didn’t need to bother sending that message
Edie: Too late now
Moses: Past your bedtime, on you go
Edie: You’re no father
Moses: I’m the only one you’ve got, little girl
Moses: don’t you speak to me like that
Edie: I can speak to you however I want
Moses: That’s what you reckon
Edie: That’s how it is, you should’ve thought about a lot before you ruined everything
Moses: I should’ve? It was you who ruined my birthday
Edie: You’ve had plenty
Moses: Don’t go crying now
Moses: you knew what you were letting yourself in for
Edie: Crying?
Edie: I feel sick, you make me sick
Moses: I gave you what you wanted, maybe you are sick
Edie: You’re meant to know what’s right, meant to do it
Edie: not this
Moses: I’ve no time for this
Edie: Right, go back to having no time for me
Moses: I haven’t none if this is how you’re going to be 
Edie: Like what
Moses: Blaming us for your behaviour
Edie: Fine, fine
Edie: it’s all my fault
Moses: It’s not mine that you’re only a tease and everything you said was a lie
Edie: It’s not real life, today proved it, don’t blame me 
Moses: You’re blaming me when I did what yous told me you wanted, so what did I do wrong, exactly?
Edie: What do you mean, you know it was wrong
Moses: Why didn’t it feel wrong then?
Edie: It made the rest of the day wrong, I couldn’t be with you, you didn’t talk to me
Moses: You liked it, but whatever, blame me, yeah
Edie: You started it
Moses: You started it in your mammy’s house, give over
Edie: You don’t even care, what this means
Moses: You don’t care about my feelings, why would I yours?
Edie: You’re meant to love me
Moses: Did I force you to kiss me or invite us up to your music room before that? 
Moses: you said you loved me and plenty else, but I bent over backwards to prove mine to you today and you keep on throwing it in my face
Edie: I didn’t say you forced me
Moses: Because I’ve never
Edie: It ruined your birthday
Edie: I want you more than I want this, that’s my point
Moses: How you acted up ruined my birthday, now you want to talk after ignoring me half the day
Edie: I’m trying to explain
Edie: how could I act normal, after that
Moses: You didn’t stop us, if I’d known you were going to be in that mood about it I would’ve
Edie: I’m sorry
Moses: Too late
Edie: It’s not, you can take my birthday and do whatever you want
Moses: The birthday you’ve banned us from spending with you, sure, I’ll be in a proper mood myself to celebrate, won’t I?
Edie: You already weren’t coming back
Moses: ‘Course I was, I mean what I say, I’ll be living back it’s all arranged
Edie: Not bothering then, you know what I mean
Moses: Don’t speak for me
Edie: You said it
Moses: You’re welcome, here I am giving you what you’re after again
Edie: I just want us to go back
Moses: Well wes can’t, you pushed everything too far
Edie: Why won’t you try
Moses: How can I, I’m not allowed to see you and you won’t talk to me
Edie: Who said
Moses: You said
Edie: I said don’t bother because today wasn’t worth you bothering with
Moses: It wasn’t worth it to you cos I won’t give you your own way and a sorry when I’m not
Edie: You already got me [whatever you’ve called this horse] I don’t even need a birthday
Moses: I get it, you don’t want your surprise no more, don’t worry I’ll cancel what I had planned, there’s no need to cancel your whole birthday too, like
Edie: I don’t want any of it
Moses: I’m still not forcing you
Edie: I’m not a child, I don’t need a fucking birthday party, it’s so irrelevant
Moses: I wasn’t giving you one, I was giving you your own fucking ‘van like an adult
Edie: Yeah, cancel it
Moses: I am
Edie: Good, don’t waste your money
Moses: It ain’t ever wasted on you, that’s why I’ll transfer it instead, do what you want with it
Edie: You were never going to let me live with you, I don’t want the money either, none of it
Moses: Yeah I was, ask your mammy if you don’t believe us
Edie: No, you were going to put me in my own caravan, I don’t need to ask anyone
Moses: Because she were carrying on and on about you having your own room, I was going to put all your music stuff in it when her back was turned
Edie: Why could you just not get a two-bedroom ‘van?
Moses: I thought you’d like having one to decorate yourself, but what do I know
Edie: Forget about it
Moses: I have now
Edie: We aren’t the same at all, not even close
Edie: I was wrong about everything
Moses: You’re wrong about that for a start
Edie: I wanted to be a family, to have a room at my daddy’s, that’s it
Moses: No, you don’t want to live with me, you never did
Edie: Liar
Moses: You’re the liar, you said you wanted to sleep in my bed, that’s why I didn’t bother myself with 2
Edie: Is that all you cared about
Edie: You didn’t want me cluttering up your life, with my things, my presence anywhere but your bed
Moses: Christ alive, you are my life and what I cared about was sharing mine with you, it was your mammy talking of space, she said no unless I got some more
Edie: So you went with the more expensive option
Moses: Like I said, I thought you’d have fun with your own ‘van to play in
Edie: No
Moses: You’ve got a music room at your mammy’s, I only wanted living with me to be as good, I was going to find out how to build it into a proper studio, that’s all
Edie: I don’t care about things, that’s not what it was about, I don’t need you to give me endless gifts
Moses: I’m not sorry for trying to give you the nice things you deserve
Edie: It’s thoughtful of you 
Moses: Don’t patronise me
Edie: Fine, it’s thoughtful this time but all it reminds me of is every time it wasn’t, that’s the truth
Moses: Jesus
Edie: I hate it, I’m not sorry
Moses: You hate me, you hate my culture, you hate how I show I care about you
Edie: No I do not
Moses: That’s what you’re saying
Edie: Because I’d rather you showed up than sent me money or things? 
Moses: I do show up and when I can’t I want you to know that you’re loved and I’m thinking of you, I’m after making it up a bit that I’m not always there how some dads get to be, why’s that a fucking crime?
Edie: I’m sorry, I can’t help how it makes us feel
Edie: I’m ungrateful, you said so, so just don’t even try, I’m not worth it
Moses: You’re cruel, but I’m to blame for that too, everything’s my fault, you said so yourself
Edie: Why’d I say that, it’s clearly not true
Moses: Forget it, something else you’ve told us to do cos you’re blatantly of the mind yous can tell me what to now, many times as you like
Edie: That’s because that’s what I want, the only thing I want
Edie: You’d never tell me it were impossible before, nothing
Moses: So have it
Edie: So mean it
Moses: I can’t just mean something different the second you decide it’s what you want
Edie: There’s time, we can
Moses: Time for you to reject me, you did
Edie: That shouldn’t be a sentence we can even say
Moses: I know, that’s why all day I’ve tried not to be upset about it, not hold nothing against you
Edie: and I tried to be normal but I couldn’t
Edie: we shouldn’t have done it, it made both of those things and more impossible
Moses: I won’t do it again, I couldn’t take feeling like that a second time
Edie: I really am sorry, you know, more than I can put in words
Edie: I feel like shit too, if that helps
Moses: I heard you the first time
Edie: Don’t hate me
Moses: I don’t
Moses: I couldn’t, I love you too much
Edie: I never want to make you feel like that again either, I can’t stand that it happened the once
Moses: I’ll find somewhere else to put it, I should’ve known you couldn’t handle it
Edie: Don’t say that
Moses: It’s the truth
Edie: Wow
Moses: I wish it weren’t but it is, kid
Edie: Fuck you
Moses: What are you getting so angry for?
Edie: Don’t talk to me and you are banned from seeing me
Moses: Have it your fucking way, everything else is
Edie: If I can’t be loved that’s all your fucking fault
Moses: All I’ve ever done is love you
Edie: You take it away, you’ve never outright said it but now you have, now there’s no denying it
Moses: You took it away first, all you’ve said
Moses: I’m no father, I’m banned from seeing you, and the rest
Edie: You’re meant to be an adult, the adult here
Moses: I’m not allowed to be upset then, that’s grand
Edie: You’re meant to fix it
Moses: I don’t know how, you’ve turned everything around
Moses: you wanted this, now you don’t and you won’t give me a second to even try and catch up, all you’re doing is being mean to me
Edie: You wish you didn’t even love me
Moses: I wish I didn’t so much it’s made you hate me
Edie: I don’t
Moses: You do
Edie: No
Edie: I want you to love me unconditionally, that’s all I’ve ever wanted
Moses: What conditions have I ever put on you? I let you do what you want even though you’re a girl
Edie: That’s the problem, this adds conditions
Moses: No it don’t, you can’t stand that it happened, it won’t again
Moses: it’s done with
Edie: You don’t believe that, be honest
Moses: I believe you, how upset you are, even though you don’t care that I am
Edie: You just left
Edie: you didn’t say goodbye, you didn’t say anything about what happened
Edie: and you told my mammy I was sulking
Moses: You wouldn’t talk to us, it was for the best I left before I said things I didn’t mean
Edie: You didn’t say anything either
Moses: I was giving you time to come to me, I didn’t expect you to take what was left of the day and go mute at me or bring your brother out so you could avoid us
Edie: I invited whoever wanted to come, not just him
Edie: and that was when I was planning
Moses: I didn’t wanna rush you no more than I did force you, use that was, when you reckon I’ve done worse
Edie: I haven’t said that and I’m not going to, get that out of your head
Edie: It was like, you couldn’t even look at me anymore
Moses: Because if I’d have looked at you I wouldn’t have been able to stop myself and you needed me to
Edie: I didn’t ask you to stop
Moses: You are, and you have been since it happened
Edie: Because if you’re going to treat me like this then I can’t
Edie: having you care about me is more important than that
Moses: I was treating you as nice as I know how to, being more careful with you than I’ve ever been with anyone before
Moses: and you still reacted like that, felt sick about it, hated me for it
Edie: It wasn’t that I felt sick about
Edie: it was after, I keep saying
Edie: You tried to humiliate me in front of my little brother, you left me out on my own when you knew I was upset
Moses: I was upset too, I keep saying
Moses: you’re the only person who’s ever rejected us and the last I reckoned would
Edie: Then let’s go back, to when that wasn’t a possibility
Moses: I don’t want to, I want it to not be a possibility because you want me too
Edie: Daddy, come on
Edie: It was a disaster
Moses: Everyone’s first time is
Moses: [tell her some stories of yours from kisses to whenever you lost your virginity like see]
Moses: I can fix that, let me
Edie: I meant the fallout
Moses: There isn’t any if we talk to each other, I should’ve made you and I’ve the knowing to next time
Edie: But will we, or would this just happen again
Moses: Come on, baby, please
Moses: give us a chance, don’t I deserve one more?
Edie: Do you want me or do you just want your streak back
Moses: You know it’s you
Moses: I want you so bad you didn’t even need to touch me to be shown how much
Edie: That wasn’t just because of where we were
Moses: It’s because you’re special, it’s never happened nowhere else
Edie: Why?
Moses: What do you mean why?
Edie: I mean
Edie: I’m not special, I didn’t do anything
Moses: You are to me, it wouldn’t matter if you did nothing every time, it’s how you make us feel
Edie: It matters to me
Moses: I love you, I’ll always love you no matter what
Edie: and I’ll always love you too
Moses: I didn’t mean to hurt you, I was hurting thinking I’d lost you
Edie: You can’t lose me, only if you push me away
Moses: You were and I couldn’t handle it
Edie: I didn’t know what to say, I still don’t
Moses: Say I can spend your birthday with you, I won’t bring no presents ‘cept myself
Edie: You promise?
Moses: Promise
Edie: Okay
Moses: I’ll miss you
Edie: I’ve missed you
Moses: I’ll light a candle and wish to start the day over, be less of a cunt to you
Edie: I wanted it to be perfect for you
Moses: I know and I ruined it
Edie: Me too
Moses: If I could see you more I wouldn’t lose my mind when I do, it’ll be different when I’m home, better
Edie: How’s the tattoo?
Moses: [send her a pic]
Moses: How’s your [wherever she got pierced]?
Edie: I’m glad you’ve not tried to scratch it off
Edie: I can’t say I’ve given it any thought
Moses: You’re going nowhere, permanent like you wrote
Moses: did you take it out, you can tell me
Edie: No, it’s still in
Edie: I feel so stupid, today was meant to be the start of a new chapter
Moses: It’s my fault
Edie: It was an equal effort
Moses: Nah, you’re saying that to make me feel better
Edie: Weird of me to start now after being such a bitch
Moses: Your birthday is going to be perfect
Edie: It is?
Moses: Whatever it takes, I’ll be making a deal with god or the devil the night before, might hedge my bets and ask both for favours
Edie: You’d risk that for me
Moses: Before you was born I don’t reckon I even had a soul to gamble with, it’s yours and already on the line for you
Edie: I love you, I know you love me too, I feel it, always
Moses: I’ve no other reason to be here
Edie: You’re mine, I’ll keep you safe, do better
Moses: If you don’t want to be touched, I’ll not touch you
Moses: you’re safe with me
Edie: I did want to, you didn’t make me do anything
Moses: Your hair made me
Edie: I didn’t realise how alike it would make us look
Moses: Nor did I ‘til I couldn’t stop looking at you
Edie: Everyone knew I was your daughter
Moses: It’s right they do, wherever we are
Moses: you belong to us, inside and out
Edie: You’ve been inside me, I still can’t believe that happened
Moses: Not all of me yet, but enough I’ll have to touch myself to the sight of you in my head every night to be fit for anything else in the morning, yeah
Edie: Am I still there, on your fingers, even a little?
Moses: Can’t you still taste yourself in your mouth from mine?
Edie: I needed more, I didn’t want to stop
Moses: Me either but you’re not broken in like other women are, I have to remember to take it slow with you
Edie: No, I want to be like them
Moses: You don’t
Edie: Why not
Moses: I didn’t love them
Edie: You love me no matter what
Moses: And how I treated them would hurt you because you love me
Edie: Tell me
Moses: I wasn’t nice how I am to you
Moses: [why yes, it is time for a rough sex style overshare, just everything we can possibly imagine because lord knows how many ladies he’s slept with by this age, going into all the graphic details as per, being just horrible with how he’s treating these gals it’s not even hot it’s just derogatory]
Edie: That’s what they wanted
Moses: Yeah
Edie: And that’s what you wanted too
Moses: Right, they were there asking to be used and I did
Edie: So how can you change what you want that much?
Moses: I’m a changed man for you, told you
Edie: I think you’ll miss it
Moses: You don’t miss [something she kind of likes] when you’ve got [something that’s a fave]
Edie: You’ll get bored
Moses: I didn’t of your mammy, she did of me
Edie: You know it’s never been that
Moses: I know I’m not getting bored of you
Edie: You will if you treat me like I’m boring
Moses: We only have be careful at first, ‘til you’re used to me
Moses: it ain’t forever
Edie: Did you do those things to my mammy?
Moses: [tell her what you did because again, we love an overshare]
Edie: Do you find it weird that you and Ronan have both slept with her?
Moses: We both slept with Django’s mammy first, he can’t help but follow my lead, I’ve always lived exactly as I’m after, most can only envy it
Edie: I’m pretty sure she slept with him first, they were friends
Moses: She fought wanting to sleep with me but I could tell she did
Edie: Obviously
Moses: Point is, Ronan’ll have taken more of my leftovers, I know, I just haven’t bothered myself to ask who or when
Edie: I miss him, it’s a shame they didn’t work out
Moses: What’s to miss?
Edie: I don’t know, it was just nice having him around
Moses: Come and live with me, that’ll be nicer, promise
Edie: I don’t know
Moses: Why not?
Edie: I’ll just visit instead
Moses: Talk to us, why don’t you want to?
Edie: The idea is tainted now
Moses: It don’t have to be
Edie: I want to stay at home
Moses: Long as you know you can have a home with me
Moses: your original idea was to stay and both of us take care of each other
Edie: The trusts not there now, for either of us
Moses: I trust you, but fine, you don’t trust your daddy
Edie: My ideas were stupid
Moses: No they weren’t, you’re too smart for that
Moses: I’ll say no more about it though, you’ve made up your mind and that’s probably another smart idea itself
Edie: You don’t have to worry about talking to me, just say when you’re back
Moses: Oh sure, not as if I want to talk to yous or anything
Edie: Sometimes you get something and find out it’s not what you wanted, right
Moses: I don’t, you’re speaking for yourself there
Edie: Well, lucky you
Moses: You’ve no need to be scared
Edie: I’m not 
Moses: You’re not going to be boring, even if you live to be 133 like I’ve plans to
Edie: I don’t even know if I wanna live to 33
Moses: Don’t say that
Edie: What’s the point, seriously
Moses: You’re my point, what would I do without you?
Edie: You can have another point
Moses: Or I can go [an geographically appropriate way of killing himself for where he is rn, whether that’s a river or whatever it is] and I would
Edie: I never said I was going to do anything
Edie: Una would haunt me, if you can haunt other dead people
Moses: I’d haunt you too
Moses: there’s no replacing you, no more talk like that
Edie: You could though, Liam’s ma would really have to be going some to be in with a shot
Moses: Shut your mouth, I could never
Edie: Are you scared of death?
Moses: You dying, give a fuck about what happens to me
Edie: I’ll try not to
Moses: Mind you try your hardest for my sake
Edie: ‘Course
Moses: I’d be lost without your visits, can’t wait for ‘em to start
Edie: You’re a nerd
Moses: Liar
Edie: Sadly not
Moses: Pathological, can’t stop, look at yous
Edie: Shut up, loser
Moses: Make me
Edie: Yeah, you wish
Moses: You wish you weren’t all talk, you mean
Moses: I’ll get over it
Edie: Oh good
Edie: You can stop annoying me then
Moses: Night then
Edie: Bye
Moses: [do go because you always rudely will haha]

I usually wake up after 4 - 5 hrs. Anyway I was thinking about FILD. but I don't know if that's lole effective?
I’ve seen a bunch of successes with FILD and one of my anons in a DM said it worked for her recently. I just found it hard to move any part of me when I’m so sleepy lol but it’s simple enough to try!

A Sword Through the Fog
Scene 6: The Knight of Fog
Y 227 2nd Unity,9th of Thermidore
The morning fog was dense and Juhn sat in the pilot's cabin of his auto-carriage seething. "Damned mists," he muttered as he slammed his gloved fists on the steering column. His tank of flummogsten had just been filled and he'd have to drag out the ol' girl. She needed a rest but the weather was forcing his hand. With two hours of prep later, Cinnamon was steadily pulling the non-functioning auto-carriage along. With Gregory guiding the old girl, Juhn sat himself in the back beside his sister and their closest friend in Feygard.
Up on top inside one of the storage chests, sat Dorathi. Hidden from her cousins, she contemplated the mission the WSE had assigned for her. A thud broke her concentration as her head bumped against the side as an auto-carriage wheel ran over a pothole with enough force to knock all of the group's supplies overboard. Dorathi had to hand it to Juhn; he knew how tie a good knot, he and his sister. But what would you expect from veteran adventurers? In all honesty, Dorathi had never been on an adventure herself. Mainly assignments - but they were straight forward. She'd teleport in and out, with no opportunity to explore or experience the many landscapes and cultures. She ruminated on the many assassinations she'd took part in. Mainly novice necromancers or those who worked with them. Sometimes the undead themselves. Dorathi chewed on some seeds. Pumpkin, sunflower, flax, and walnut chunks. It made for good birdseed. Especially when you added bits of stone. She listened closely, waiting for a sign that the carriage was rolling to a stop. Sensing that it was slowing down after what seemed like five minutes, she opened the suitcase and crawled out. They had arrived at the international skyport, off in Baldwin Port, a large city in the northernmost edge of Inthal. Rolling off the back, she clutched the bottom axle, making sure her cloak didn't drag onto the mud. She heard a mix of clicking and laughter.
Abstoanarchuud (Aahb-sto-ahn-R-cood), the occult language of the Palkites. It was especially effective at banishing evil. It was especially loud. Dorathi allowed the clicking and loling inside her head to continue unanswered. Her fellow operatives knew what she was up to; they were planning out their patrol of the airship yard. It was their job to make sure none of the Vashtnal cult operatives were able to get near or at least harm any of the three elven adventurers headed to Brightspire. Wöd had done his part to make sure that Raina had gotten to Aquilheim. It was Dorathi's job to make sure they got to Brightspire and through Brightspire. All without garnering the attention of the two cults that had sprouted there. She had made sure Raina got the owl, but it wouldn't be enough protection until they got to Eirstead. Added to the threat that the cults in Brightspire were the Adrubbahkites and their spy network. It was annoying and effective enough to keep up with Lialka's movements without her noticing. What had their attention wasn't her potential to thwart the Q'dauruhk, but her connection to Dreyus, a man they wished to manipulate. A man Dorathi feared they knew how to control. A man Dorathi knew only thought about control. An actual five minutes passed, and finally the auto-carriage door opened. Juhn's boots were the first to hit the ground. Lialka's came next followed by a more gentle landing from Raina. He must have lifted her off of the carriage. Juhn, you make it so obvious, she thought to herself. Tsk, tsk, at this rate you might as well assume the position. Dorathi waited a good two minutes as she watched the three walk off. When she was certain they were too far to reasonably hear, she started clicking and cackling...'Eagles gone nest,' Dorathi clicked and hahed. 'Ok. I go stalk them now.' Wöd. 'Lialka knows I'm here. But she not go tell. She seek hard.' 'Ok. Hide hard then. I ask thing.' 'Ask thing.' 'Why Lialka not know more.' 'Plan not work if she know.' 'Ok.' Dorathi crawled back up to the back of the carriage before climbing down. She waited before the baggage handler arrived. It was Gusc, a gnome.
"Dorathi."
"Mr. Areh. If you could hand me my suitcase."
"Of course, milady," Gusc replied. He clapped his hands as two robed figures jumped out from the shadows.
"Get Ms. Einthael her equipment for this assignment." The two men nodded as they grabbed the suitcase Dorathi had hidden herself in. Bringing it to her, they waved their hands over it. Dorathi opened the chest and pulled out a crossbow.
Alongside it were cold-iron bolts.
"Good against Arnd'thuul. But be wise with them. The only known Cold-iron deposits exist on the continent of Chianglong. In a land known as Hylsphan." Dorathi nodded. She equipped her items, taking two canisters sitting in the chest as well.
"For taking on large groups of opponents. We'll make sure to drop you some more every 2 months. Use them wisely. They can't be made where you're going."
"Understood," Dorathi replied. She strapped the cobalt grenades onto her belt. And walked off.
Have yourself a good shift," she told Gusc as she calmly walked towards The Crossheart. She climbed up the side and undid a panel, crawling inside before sealing herself inside and redoing the insulation.

I've played all the nitro+chiral games!!! I'm a long-time fan who comes in and out of the fandom lolol. I feel like slow damage is very similar to tnc in a lot of ways but with a ton of improvements made. SD is like the best visual novel I've ever played tho like oh my goddd. 😭 The true route had me crying like a baby I'm still thinking about it... The closure and the growth. I loved all the routes + it was everything I hoped it'd be but Fujiedas route was just PHENOMENAL...... I wish Toono had a bad end tho that's my man. ♡
lot of text
omg hell yeah i thought this a llt of times whilep laying the game but it felt like slow damage was . it was like togainu but if they fixed all thei issues i had w togainu...like the world def reminded me smmm oc tnc but i think slow damage does an overall better job to integrate all the diff elements of its world imto the actusl plot? n it s like everythi g they introduce serves a purpose in some kind kf way. its v cool.
n yeah even tho it obv has similarities to other chiral hames it still fdlt so fresh to me the gameplay mechanic was rly unique alsooo. i felt like there was a lot of...movement? which was interestng like parts of the true route. in the sakaki scene itd feel likei m watching s movie sometimes.
also sd just hit so hard idkkk tis def becoem on of my top 3 vns too prob my fav its so fucking coolllll.
oh samee fujieda route broke n stomped on my heart then gently put it back together i love ig sm...the satisfaction n closure a tthe end is so. so nice n i love that u get to say a proper goodbye to everhone by the end :) fr i usually feel lole true routes arent always executed well but they did such a phenomenal job w fujieda its everything i ever wanted n more. i loved that it was more abt unveilong n healing towa rather than the lvoe imterest tho ofc fujieda grows too!! its jsut rly good.
TOONO JSBFBS hes a lil goofy looknog to me but i resoect it 😭 i can totally see him gaving s side bad ending in takus route or smth
