「 ✦ Unexpected Traveler Pt. 1 ✦ 」
↳ You were once a world traveler alongside the twins—one being your lover...but that was until you had disappeared from their side not too long after their run in with the heavenly principles. So...what a coincidence would it be if a certain unexpected traveler showed up.
Tags:
──────⋆⋅☆⋅⋆──────
You flopped onto your bed—nothing seemed better than to just be unconscious in a world of bliss and nothingness.
Earlier you had to deal with a stuck up local who commissioned you. Fortunately you were saved by the artistic consultant de Fontaine who graciously invited you for a quick tea and sandwich but it was cut short as your food and drink splattered on your outfit by a bumping local.
So here you were, splat across your mattress, staring at nothingness in contemplation of your life.
How you wished you could go back to your old life..
You started to reminiscence of your previous adventures with the blonde twins—hopping different worlds, exploring their vast lands and fighting off unique and exquisite monsters.
Your eyebrows furrow as your mind drifts to that day—the day where you lost everything, lost them—him.
You remember it so clearly, the night sky with it's stars shining down upon the world, the moon's glow cascading over the nourishing life, though..it all turned red so quickly. Fire spreading, smoke arising from every corner. The world was crumbling, you, yourself included.
You remember, you could still feel it, the way your hand slowly crumbled away into ash. You remember the horrified faces of the twins as the realization sank in. You remember the last time you saw his face as he cradled you before the only thing left was ashes and darkness.
But then..you woke up here. The burning sensation that filled your eyes from the salt, how the world around you felt light yet heavy at the same time..that was until you felt movement from yourself and another. And that's where you met Furina—well, Focalors, the God of justice and the Archon of hydro. Overall throughout your years here, the two of you had gotten close, practically family at this point.
..
Your time of reminiscing was interrupted with knocking from your door.
Quickly getting up you opened the door and were greeted by one of Furina's servants.
"Lady {Y/N}, Lady Furina wishes to speak to you quickly."
.
.
.
"HE'S HERE!?"
Your shouts bounced off the walls of the court room, Furina swore the whole city of Fontaine heard.
She shook her head. "Well, yes and no. Aether's here on Teyvat, yes, but he's not in this region." She corrected placing her head on her hand with intrugement.
"B-but he's here! Holy shit!" You cussed, both hands at the side of your head as you paced nervously. But you briefly stopped, your brows furrowing, "wait..he's here..? Where's Lumine?" You questioned.
Furina raised her brow in confusion, "His sister?" She paused, hesitating as she thought..She shook her head, "{Y/N}...She—...she isn't here, theres no records of her existence here physically, the only thing of her being is words from the traveler." She stated as her brows furrowed in sympathy.
She knew your relationships with the twins. She didn't want to be the barrier of bad news but better to say it now than let it be found later. Right?
She watched as you stood in silence before sighing. "Do you know where he is now?" You asked as she hummed in thought before nodding, "I believe he's somewhere in Sumeru, I heard there was quite a big event there."
You furrowed your brows before shaking your head, "thank you Furina, I need a bit of time to uhh figure all this out." You smiled as she nodded in understanding.
....
Two weeks have passed, you haven't heard much about the Aether only a few mummers and mumbles every once in a while.
You still had hope and your were ecstatic to see him for the first time in how many years? Right..4 years.
You wondered if he changed at all or if he was still the same—like his looks, or persona. Maybe even his relationships? Would that also mean his relationship with you would've changed..? What if he didn't like you anymore—moved on, found someone else? What if-
You shook your head, not wanting to sink deeper into that abyss.
You walked along the shore of Fontaine, your brows furrowed as you tried calming your gearing mind.
"AGH! Why couldn't I have just not turn to dust!?" You complained, throwing your head back as you pressed your nails into your head in irritation but quickly let go as you heard something behind you.
"{Y/N}..?"

Nebby talks Genshin Impact part one of many many parts
Neuvillette building and playstyle for everyone who either has him but has no idea what they’re doing or wants him on his rerun (whenever that happens)
SO neuvi is a main DPS character that’s unusual for two reasons:
-his charged attacks are what you get most damage out of (which is why one of his constellations levels his normal attacks up by three)
-he scales on HP
Build guide first - You can build him on 4 piece heart of depths, or 4 piece nymph’s dream for hydro sets, but 4 piece Marachusee Hunter is also really good on him. HP%, crit rate, crit damage and energy recharge are my focus stats, but don’t neglect elemental mastery either. I’ve got him on the weapon Ballad of the Boundless Blue, but I know that’s an event weapon that not everyone is gonna have. Good alternatives would be: Tome of the Eternal Flow, Lost Prayer to the Sacred Winds or Sacrificial Jade for 5 star and paid weapons, or The Widsith or Prototype Amber for free-to-play weapons
I have my Neuvillette at 1st constellation level, and I’d say that it’s alright but he’s just as good without any constellations in my opinion. If you’re someone who goes for as many constellations as possible, I’d go for 4 on him, as that’ll make more hydro balls and that means more charged attacks.
As for his playstyle, you’re gonna want to concentrate on charged attacks. When Neuvillette’s burst or skill hits an enemy little balls appear, and those let you charge up a charged attack faster. His burst allows for two charged attacks, and his skill for one. Because of his cool-downs, I usually do his skill, then a charged attack, then his burst, then two charged attacks, then skill and charged attack again. His normal attacks are okay, but I tend to avoid using them because they’re slow and clunky. Using his charged attack drains his health until it hits 50%, so keep that in mind. Collecting the balls while charging heals him too, so he’s self-sustaining if you always use the water balls to charge his attacks.
Teams for Neuvillette: crowd control is a must to maximise damage, so one of Kazuha, Venti or Sucrose is good to run with him. I also have a healer with him because of the HP cost of his charged attacks. I use Baizhu, and my fourth slot is filled by an electro or pyro user to have extra dendro reactions. I can see Neuvillette running well in freeze teams, but honestly he’d be good on any team where you need constant hydro applications or have off-field elements to react with.
I’m a really big fan of him, he’s my current main and I don’t think I’ll be swapping him any time soon.

@captainadwen
wow!!! thank you  so much!!! this has taught me that i.... iiiii... i need more characters hahaha. but thank you!
In the Genshin meta, there are some 4 stars that everyone swears by and there is a reason for that. The simplest way to Get Stronger Teams is honestly to build them, try the basic teams they work in and then get more expensive 5 star updates for those team. 
The generally discussed strongest 4 stars: 
Bennett: Heals and gives a very powerful ATK buff when you’re in his circle. The meta crowd swears by him, though in my casual experience, it can be difficult to tell when he’s doing something because all numbers look the same to me. Still, a flexible, always good option and stapled to Xiangling, if you use her. 
Xiangling: The standard all pyro DPS get compared to. I hate using her, but the results of National team (Bennett+Xiangling core, plus Xingqiu or a hydro alternative, and a flex slot) are hard to deny. For other people. I’ve never been able to get it to work. 
Xingqiu: Arguably the most used and versatile character ever. You want to run a pyro DPS? Xingqiu is the go-to option for applying Hydro so they can vape. You want to run taser? Xingqiu brings great personal damage, great hydro, and even damage reduction and some chip healing. You want to run freeze? Xingqiu is right there. 
Fischl: The current meta won’t shut up about how great she is with Dendro, but she’s also just generally good. Great personal damage, generates particles, almost no field time, even snapshots. Most taser teams will run her, and she’s a great flex pick too. 
Beidou: Very good in 2+ targets, and the other half of the usual taser core. Only problem is getting her burst back up, but pairing her with Fischl helps a lot. 
Sucrose: Groups enemies, good swirl damage, and her ability to share EM with the team is very important once you start doing reactions. Also, obviously, a VV holder. Nearly any reaction team can use her somehow. 
Not to be generic, but building them helps a lot. By building, I don’t even mean high investment. Generally, I only bothered getting the right main stats on an appropriate set/weapon and called it a day. No one has proper crit ration, but everyone sure has way too much ER. Nonetheless, it works. 
Aside from them, Rosaria and Diona are considered good and flexible. I use Rosaria with Kaeya when I want to do freeze, but I’ve never been able to get much mileage out of Diona. It does come down to personal preferences. 
You probably already know, but starting from a general team template also helps a lot: 
Pyro DPS melt/vape: The classic. Pick a Pyro DPS, pair them with Xingqiu someone to apply Hydro or Cryo and then stuff in some supports. That sweet 1.5 reaction multiplier will do heavy lifting for you. 
Taser: Hydro+Electro, maybe some Anemo for flavor. There are so many numbers. Who is doing what? No idea, but somehow it works out. 
Freeze: Tired of enemies running around? The solution is here. Generally, freeze is carried by a strong Blizzard artifact set, where you can forgo building crit rate in order to stack more crit damage. You can also amplify damage via stuff like Mona Omen extension, Kazuha, Shenhe, etc. Not the most powerful, but still perfectly workable. Fun fact: I use a super scuffed freeze on 12-1 sometimes. It works. 
You can also get good mileage out of Dendro by using it to buff a 2 Electro DPS core (eg Keqing+Fischl), or else with Budgeon/Hyperbloom where you just stack EM on the triggering character (I use Kuki, but many electro and pyro can be repurposed for this). Bloom variants in particular are carried by EM, character level and the reaction, so you can skip a lot of building. 
Good luck!

Hi, I am a french person playing Genshin Impact and as such I have a bunch of stuff I'd like for Fontaine, here are some (more or less possible lmao)
Saints equivalent, like Hydro visions barer that illustrated themselves in some cool and now they get to be on stained glass and all
Pretty castles and architecture, it's gonna be inspired from 20's, there litteraly so many possibilities, don't mess this up
I can't wait for the outfits, like I said Fontaine is gonna be inspired from France during the 20's known as the "année folle" get ready for 3 pieces costumes and glittery dresses everywhere
FOOD, give us croissant, milefeuille, pain au chocolat, poppiette, beouf bourguignon, fondue savoiarde, raclette, you can do this Mihoyo I know it
Make the administration a mess, make it so that no one understands shit to how it works, I want my "milefeuille" of administration, I want communes, inside of communnauté de commune, inside of regions, inside of departements, I want Paimon to be confused
I want french names, that aren't too cliché/known (pls no playable Jean-Pierre, pls no plyable Jean-Pierre, pls-) theres such a variety of names here, you can choose the pretty ones for once
I want lawyers everywhere! This is more about the Hydro Archons ideal being Justice than me being french, but still

With Sumeru, Fontaine and Natalan slowly approaching (mostly Sumeru) I have lots of expectations for Mihoyo
Because most of the places/countries they take inspirations from have a lot of stereotypes, very used in pop culture and I hope Mihoyo is able not just distance from that, but also to not whitewashe peoples from Sumeru and Natlan
And it goes the same for players, if I hear any jokes on the names of any characters from there, or disrespect for any of these places or the real places/peoples they take inspirations from I will riot and turn all of ya'll to paupiettes

Anyway the real writer experience is actually fully writing a scene in your mind while trying to sleep but being so scared to forget it you have to write it, except you don't have your phone so you grab a pen and a notebook and start franticly writing knowing you're gonna have to re-type all of that...

matchups.
hihi :’) way overdue – but here are the matchup requests that i received.  please check for yours below if it was sent in!  ctrl+f on desktop for your mbti/zodiac, or something you remember adding in if the post is too long to scroll through.
Tumblr media
Hello! I'm INFP and 98% Type 4 & 92% Type 9. I'm a sun Pisces & moon Aquarius. I'm fairly introverted but can be kinda silly if I'm trying to be social. I'm also empathetic & sympathetic with plenty of self-confidence issues. My main hobbies are playing games, looking into social issues, thinking about game characters,etc. I keep bouncing between visions but Geo might be fitting since current Geo characters are a little more on the introverted side. Not sure if I'm late but wanted to try <3 I'm the INFP Pisces & Aquarius Geo asker and forget to mention that I'd like 1 platonic and 1 romantic!
romantic match-up: kaeya.
although it might be odd at first to pair him with a sensitive and introverted soul such as yourself, on the contrary, kaeya won’t have any issues relating to your emotional nature, even if outwardly it doesn’t seem so (behind his light-hearted and diplomatic dialogue, he’s got a transactional relationship with the knights he’s “loyal” to; his own brother is distasteful towards him; and he’s got an agenda that goes against everything he currently lives with.)  he’ll get a knack out of teasing you when the mood is fitting, and while he may not be the one to give you the best of pep-talks, his self-assured disposition does have its uses: confident words soothe over the creases of your worries and troubling thoughts, and when things are more light-hearted, the two of you will bounce off of each others’ playful mannerism.
platonic match-up: barbara.
barbara is a sweetheart who’s incredibly devoted to both her companions and her aspirations.  wholesome and energetic, she’s sure to keep you on your toes dancing, whether it be about how beautiful it is outside or the potential of a rainbow after a storm.  while she’s a clear extrovert, barbara is also insightful to the feelings of others – after all, an idol must understand her crowd! – so she’s sure to dial down the energy if you’re ever feeling weary that day.
Tumblr media
hihi !! can i please submit myself for the matchups ? i'm intp-t, scorpio sun and leo moon. i'm 5'11, female, and am described to be a very energetic person. i like to think optimistically and have a special love for philosophy and chemistry !! my hobbies include reading and writing - i've also recently picked up baking. i think i would have a hydro vision in genshin - hydro users tend to be healers, and i think that's something i would specialize in. can i please have 2 romantic matchups 🥺
i'm the scorpio sun leo moon intp matchup ask !! i forgot to mention that my enneagram type is seven, sorry 😔
romantic match-ups: childe/tartaglia and jean. 
childe hyperfixates on individuals he deems strong.  while this usually translates into people who have experience on the battle field, in your case, he finds it admirable that you’re able to keep up with so many hobbies and interests.  your thirst for new experiences and stimuli is akin to his own sense of adventure, and your devotion to each and every one of them resonates with his own conviction to his aspirations.  you’re strong mentally, and when you interact, he always has to dedicate himself to you fully in order to keep up; there’s never a dull moment when you’re around him.
a workaholic in denial, jean’s position as acting grand master never gives her a break.  she’ll insist that she’s fine, that she’s content with her oversight of the knights, that they are her priority.  and while this is true, when you talk about how your interests range from chemistry to baking, it’ll remind her of the time she doesn’t have to do “normal people things.”  again, not that she’s miserable with the knights, far from it – it’s just that your life and spontaneity reminds her of the things outside of the knights that she wishes she could do, too.  your genuine energy never fails to make her smile – perhaps you were who she’s been waiting for.
Tumblr media
hi, congrats on the 1k followers! i really enjoy your writing and i’m glad to see that you’re doing well! i hope the rest of 2021 goes well for you!
for the matchup event, i’d like one platonic and one romantic relationship. i'm an infp, 6w5, scorpio sun and virgo moon. my attention span isn’t the best and i’m an impulsive dumbass, but i still manage to get good grades somehow. i try to be sociable, but i have a habit of clamming up so i usually just end up sticking to the people i know. i’m kinda all or nothing with the effort i put into things; i run out of steam pretty easily so i tend to leave things unfinished, which i hate, but sometimes i’ll go wild and finish a semester-long project in one afternoon. overall, i really like helping others and being seen as reliable! i was really dependent on others in the past, and although i still kinda am now, i’m trying to be someone others can depend on.
as for hobbies, i mostly just play video games and scary stories. i’m also into a lot of crafts, particularly knitting and bracelet-making. i find the motions relaxing, but i enjoy it the most when i have someone to make things for.
as for my vision, i think hydro suits me best because it seems more support-oriented overall, which is the kind of role i’d like to have. however, that doesn’t mean that it can’t be used to do some serious damage if needed.
has lots of energy that’s hard to direct, but can plow through things they set their mind to.  likes security of things they know, and wants to give security as well.  creative outlets.  seems a bit finicky?  but insightful with their own emotions. 
romantic match-up: mona.
outwardly stubborn but inwardly self-critical, mona has dedicated her entire life to the stars, and it shows: her masterful grip on astrology is nothing to scoff at, and she’s arguably the most practiced mage in all of teyvat.  at first, she’ll be baffled at your impulsiveness and “lack of focus”: how will you ever get anything done? she’ll wonder.  but when you prove her time and time again that you can plow right through an obstacle just like scissors through paper, so long as it seizes your interest, she’ll take moments to think about her own outlook on life.  when she realizes your comfort in abstract, artistic past-times, she might ask cutely for you to teach her.  surely, if she can talk to the stars, she can make bracelets . . . ?  o-of course they’d be for you!  who else would they be for, if not someone she deems endearing.
platonic match-up: beidou. 
the personification of a tidal wave, beidou’s ferocity hits hard and leaves a mark.  the two of you will find it easy to bounce off of each others’ ideas – maybe even concerningly so to the rest of the crew – and hell, she might even sway you to sneak into a hilichurl village to steal some carrots if it’ll provide for some overdue fun.  lots of  pats  slaps on the back, and she’ll always beckon you over when she learns about something new, thinking that you might find it interesting, and when she wants someone else’s input.  she trusts your judgement like family, and knows that you’ve always got her.
Tumblr media
hi! i would like to request a genshin character matchup (2 romantic). my mbti is infj and enneagram 2. i am a cancer sun and aries moon. i am calm and reliable, but i do have a mischievous side and use a lot of dry humor. when it comes to having fun, i like to enable others! i am also deeply passionate about community service. my hobbies include yarn crafting. my genshin vision would be cryo because i am highly motivated by love/emotion, can come off as cold, and love the ice aesthetic! tysm!
romantic match-ups: diluc and lisa.
often broody and contemplative, diluc has a whirlwind of thoughts in that hard head of his.  through your first interactions, he’ll piece together your intense devotion towards your loved ones and willingness to help others.  he’ll warn you that you should take time to consider yourself, too, and that it shouldn’t always be give, give, give, but those same traits in you that he worries about are the same qualities that draw him in.  once, too, he was as uninhibited as you, had the same energy.  perhaps it’s because you’re both so similar, both in internal hopes and mannerisms, is why he finds it easier to loosen up – even if he doesn’t immediately let go of that deadpan attitude of his when he knows you can come back just as hard.
she’s enthralled by your willingness to engage in her banter.  often, those she teases (flirtatiously or otherwise) leave with a red face and an adorable stutter, but it just so happens that you’re one to fluster her instead.  it’s been a long time since she’s met someone who can keep her guessing, yet is incredibly insightful to themselves and those around them.  she finds your qualities of fun and sincerity to be charming.  you’re a breath of fresh air compared to the stern knights she’s around all day, and she looks forward to meeting you after work, conversing with you as you walk down mondstadtian streets and eat over dinner.  there’s never a dull quip from your lips, and she’d love to hear everything on your mind.
Tumblr media
hii hope I'm not making this too hard on u lol one romantic and one platonic please! either gender is fine I'm bi as Hecc mbti: enfp-t sun taurus moon aries I think my vision would be cryo because people say it's connected to loss and I've lost some pretty important people to me and also. I hate the heat I really like cards, wolves and the stars, my hobbies include working with robots and the general aesthetic of the mid 2000s, my favorite season is winter and I love buying ppl gifts ♡
platonic match-up: chongyun. 
immediately, your avoidance of heat and affinity to the calm will give him someone to relate to, and your attraction to the abstract will pique his interests.  (perhaps, once he’s become more confident with his exorcist abilities, he could pick up some of your hobbies?)  your practicality, in contrast to his often self-critical mindset, will ground him in times of need, and he’ll always ask you if he can help you out in return.  while he looks up to you as an individual, he’s honored to also be your friend, or at least someone you devote time to.
romantic-matchup: ningguang.
you both understand sacrifices and loss.  while it’s a rather bleak realization upon getting to know each other, your rationality and perseverance despite the past stirs her respect for you; your mindsets are incredibly alike, and she’ll often input your reasoning into her plans, and deem you a trusted associate of the liyue qixing.  in her demanding position, you are someone she can readily relate to and rely on.  in times when things are less hectic and the two of you can more freely relax, she’ll indulge in a shopping spree with you.  as someone who’s intimate with her in both profession and emotional relations, she’d love to show her gratitude. 
Tumblr media
hi! i'd like to participate on the match up event!
i'm an infp, and also type six on the enneagram test, my sun sign is aries and my moon sign is pisces. i like arts in general with my favourite ones being music and painting, but i also enjoy writing and i spend a lot of time songwriting! also as a person i'm rlly clumsy and i kind of look mean bc of my resting bitch face lol. i think my vision would be anemo because i think it can be really useful in many ways and i like the reactions it has with other visions. i'd like two romantic match ups! i hope this was understandeable, as my english isn't the best. thank you! 💌
romantic-matchups: mona and zhongli.
mona will find your interest in the arts intriguing.  you always seem to get ideas at the most random of times, often startling her with how active your mind is.  and despite how she doesn’t reply much in return – she’s not versed in words or drawings, even if she won’t verbally admit it – you seem to be satisfied with her . . . reactions?  even if the most she can relate them to is astrology, it seems to be enough for you, so long as she isn’t uptight that day.  your creativity and attraction to the abstract gives her comfort: there aren’t many people in mondstadt who appreciate her profession, so even if you aren’t into the exact same things, she’ll at least know that there’s someone who looks forward to seeing her.
on his quest to “learn what being a human” is, zhongli encounters a myriad of occupations.  typically, the people of liyue are wound up with economics and realism, but your joy in the possibilities – how you can convey your emotions, through what mediums – of life has to offer reminds him of humanity.  with you, he’ll explore what mortals call “the small things” in life: akin to the spark of appreciation for flying lanterns, autumn-colored lights at night, feelings of wonder – that’s what you instill in him. 
Tumblr media
hello!! id like a matchup please!! im an INTP-T and im Type 5,, im capricorn sun and libra moon. im a reserved person and kind of angry all the time,, and i get overwhelmed easily. im not that good with affection,, but me actually welcoming you into conversation or my room or smthn, or actually responding to you means something. im just scared to be open with affection because its always done me wrong in the past. anyways,, id like a platonic matchup and romantic matchup please!! thank u and congrats!!🥳🥳❤️❤️
hello,, im that Capricorn sun libra moon anon,,, very sorry to disturb you,,, but i didn’t mention what my vision would be!! i think id be pyro,, ive always been a bit cold or i usually shun people away,, so i think id be cryo!!!! or maybe hydro because im constantly having a mental breakdown LMAO(but i fr think id be cryo)
platonic match-up: sucrose.
while she’s constantly on-edge from work, sucrose will always make time to check on her dear friend.  after all, you do the same for her, even if you insist that you might not have the right words ready.  “partners in stress,” kaeya would teasingly dub the two of you as, but you don’t pay mind to him.  as quiet and reserved individuals, you find tranquility within each others’ company.  
romantic match-up: venti.
whimsical and regarded as a mere bard by most, venti puts up a convincing front.  but it’s just that: a front.  the real venti is concealed by a chipper voice and mercurial agenda, when underneath, there’s a solemn musician who’s burdened.  you’ll most likely be off-put by his facade, as he’s trained himself to constantly be lively – comes with being a performer – but will soon find that he understands your turmoil.  he’s not the best with sentimental words, but will instead convey his sympathies through strums of his lyre.  while it isn’t obvious that there’s security in freedom, he’ll be sure to encourage you that there’s a way.
Tumblr media
Hello Al! For the match-up event would it be possible for me to ask for 1 romantic and 1 platonic? As for my MBTI I am an INFJ-T. As for the ennseagram I am 98% type five and 90% type 6. I am a Taurus sun and an Aquarius moon. I tend to come off as polite and often times a bit shy/reserved irl. I love learning new things. Conversations that have all parties thinking critically are definitely my favorites. My hobbies are writing, drawing, learning new things, reading, and playing video games. As for Genshin vision I'd have to say cryo. I've taken a quiz on quotev and got a tie between cryo and anemo. Cryo's description seemed to fit my personality better. I also seem to have a connection with the cold. Let me know if you need any more info. Remember to take care of yourself. ~Taylor💙
platonic match-up: albedo.
you both have your inquisitive sides, and albedo is more than willing to talk to you about his discoveries.  while he might not proactively reach out to you – more like, if you’re nearby, and he happens to catch you peeping at his work, he’ll engage with you.  he finds your takes thought-provoking and your candor respectful; a fellow of agreeable disposition, your calmness and supplementing nature also makes it easy for him to work.
romantic match-up: zhongli.
both intuitive and practical in your approaches, zhongli’s given a new perspective when you converse, or at least, a new thing to ponder over.  many regard him as stiff besides his gentlemanly disposition; your focused and insistent care will enrapture him as heartwarming, that there are “acceptable” vulnerabilities, but they’re not weak points at all – far from it.  your security and assuredness is harmonious with your emotion insight, making for a stable lifestyle that he easily molds into.  the conversations that the two of you engage in are nothing short of provocative.  just as much as he learns from you, he also provides with tales of the old days. 
Tumblr media
Is - is the matchup thing still relevant? If not you can just ignore this message - its ok, i know ur busy :)
If it is still on tho, i wonder if i could get a platonic and romantic one?
Im a INFP-T(??), Type 4, pisces sun sag moon.
Im a dumb nerd with big glasses who loves t shirts with puns ot jokes on it. Im not sure about my hobbies, i just like anything that can make me think - memes, books, music, games with lore. I dont like boring, overly normal stuff. I have shitty sense of direction and i suck at math.
I think that my vision would be anemo since thats (i think) an element that requires both creativity and knowledge to work with, which is very special and interesting to me.
Thank you so much in advance! Or sorry if i sent this too late 😅
platonic match-up: xinyan.
both of you are free-flowing and seek excitement.  you’re the gasoline to xinyan’s match: you both feed off of each others’ knack for new things, stimuli, and the bold.  you could be walking down the streets of liyue, eating bags of mora meat, and then suddenly run down to the northern wharf to catch passing boats and playfully debate over which snobby aristocrat is being shipped off.  there’s never a dull moment between the two of you, and the plan is always no plan.  spontaneity is the name of the game, and it’s one that you can go at for ages. 
romantic match-up: beidou.
there’s hardly a moment to breathe on the crux fleet, that’s for sure.  be prepared to explore the entirety of teyvat with beidou, because she’s got you covered with all of your “new thing” needs, alongside your ocean-borne family.  she’ll find it humorous that you’re not practiced in navigation – ironic for a seafarer.  but steering is complex, and she’d gladly help you out in learning, just another thing to do in a day’s work. 
Tumblr media
Hi! For the match up event, I'm 98% type 3 and a 97% type 7, I'm am Intp and my moon sign is scorpio, my sun sign is Pisces. I'm above than average in math and I like to draw from time to time, I've tried to learn the ukelele but ultimately failed. I'd like my vision to be an electro cause my fav color is purple and I like how the electricity sparks and stops my enemies, I'm also a fan fic writer and love manhwas
Hi! I'm the last anon that you reminded that should have put 2 romantic in the ask! Sorry about that, it just completely flew over my head
romantic match-ups: ningguang and childe/tartaglia.
your ambition knows no bounds, and your drive is a force to be reckoned with.  some may call your approaches headstrong, but your ability to take initiative is something that ningguang greatly admires.  it’s something she professes that you two have in common – granted, even if her economic tendencies are more cutthroat.  while the two of you have incredibly firm opinions that might send shocks across the room you’re debating in, ningguang trusts your rational thought and explorative mindset.  your like-mindedness, in this instance, brings great relief to her in her position.
childe is also someone who would take interest in you.  he’s not one for schemes like the rest of the harbingers, and would appreciate your straightforward approaches and the focused energy you put into each project/obstacle you face.  it makes it easier for him to speak his mind, and he’ll find comradery with you fairly easy to come by.  gradually, the zeal the two of you share can draw you into more adventures, and he’ll have someone he can call a trustworthy partner. 
Tumblr media
Hello! For your generous match-up event, could I request two romantic matches please? My MBTI type is INFP and my enneagram type is four. My sun sign is Aries and my moon is Gemini. I am a quiet but curious person who can be really flirty and sarcastic in private. I am very caring to those I love. My hobbies including writing and drawing. For my vision, I think I would be cryo? I’m a secretive person who has trust issues and can be cruel. I love your blog, you’re so skilled! Thank you so much!
romantic match-ups: kaeya and jean.
you’re a trusted soul by all, even if many also regard you as reserved.  kaeya isn’t one to grow attached (it’s hindered him in the past), however after being paired with you on multiple missions, he’ll feel more at ease around you due to your good nature.  your duality is also a breath of fresh air, and each time he talks to you afterwards, he’s reminded that there are individuals who have others’ best interests at heart.  many knights will catch the two of you tossing jokes back and forth at each other, but for once, kaeya isn’t trying to swindle anybody. 
the acting grand master has a lot on her plate, but she finds that when she’s in your company, the tray is a little lighter.  she relates to your sincerity and good intentions, a welcome refresher in the world of forced diplomacy and tedious hours.  you also seem to know just the right things to say to lighten the mood, with a cute smile to top it all off. 
Tumblr media
hello! Could I request 2 romantic match-up? I'm ENFP, enneagram 2w3. Sun Sagittarius, Moon Scorpio, Asc. Virgo. My hobbies consist of anything generally creative, gaming/anime, hanging out with friends esp!! I'm the type of person to show affection by physical touch and by gentle ribbing-- I love making other people laugh. I'm always down to do things, new or not, and an honest and easy-going person. My Vision would be Geo bc I think it reflects how I am as a person-- stable n loyal :) thank u!!
romantic match-ups: venti and beidou. 
no one would’ve thought that you and venti would be a pair – then again, when they consider your tendencies for jokes and charisma, it’ll all come together.  wherever the two of you go, laughter follows, like dandelions in the breeze.  venti hits it off with you almost immediately after you meet, your natural social nature enabling easy conversation.  you’re also very zealous with topics that pique your interest.  it’s a genuine, eager curiosity that he can’t help but consider endearing.
the two of you are always searching for new things, be it small islands in the horizon or neat little specialties that you manage to catch in the corner of your eye.  there’s never a dull moment when the two of you get going on ideas, and while you may be the more rational, beidou will always insist on adding some more “zest” into whatever you come up with.  if you push her, she might accidentally shove you off the boat with the playful enthusiasm of a golden retriever. 
Tumblr media
Hiya~! Thank you both for doing this! For the character match-up, I'd like to request two (2) Romantic please lmao, with a side of French fries.
I'm an INFP, Libra sun/Scorpio moon. My external personality might lead ppl to think I'm a charismatic extrovert, but that's the face I show for the 5 whole minutes I'm socializing, and then return to my introvert turtle shell for the next week. I cycle through hobbies since I get bored quickly, but I always come back to music since singing is my passion. I know for sure my Vision would be Anemo bc I need to be free to feel comfortable and tend to react rather aggressively when I feel restrained 🤔
I'm deeply emotional, sometimes impulsive, and dislike relying on others. I tend to be cat-like in my affections... sometimes I Love, other times Do Not Want. Except for animals, they always get my love ❤ ehehe....
romantic match-ups: mona and kaeya.
mona considers your nature incredibly easy to grasp.  but don’t take it as an insult or offense – in fact, your simplicity is a constant in mona’s life: you like time to yourself, and when you’re alone is when your energy comes out.  she doesn’t have to worry about reading too much into your feelings when she can see that you’re independent.  your interactions are calm and reassuring; she doesn’t have to be uptight around you, because she knows you trust in her abilities and lifestyle, and security with herself and those she cares about is her top priority. 
kaeya’s able to relate to your social tendencies.  there’s a front that he puts up in front of his colleagues (purely for professional purposes) before reverting back to his natural state of mind.  he finds your distance understandable, and considers it something the two of you have in common.  when you talk one-on-one, it’s easy to bounce ideas off of each other about mondstadtian culture and other topics of interest; while your independent natures may lead to some time apart, there will always be fresh experiences waiting when you do meet again.

⚡️How to Build.....⚡️
Tumblr media
💥 Hu Tao 💥
-Fragrance and Thaw-
Quick Facts:
Element: Pyro 🔥
Weapon: Polearm
Role: Main/Burst DPS
Passive Stat (a stat that gets leveled up as you level up your character): Crit DMG %
“When the sun’s out, bathe in sunlight. But when the moon’s out... bathe in moonlight.”
Weapon Choices
- #1 pick is... Staff of Homa! If you are able to obtain it, it will provide massive HP as well as ATK bonuses. It is useful since Hu Tao scales off of HP and needs lots of HP to be viable as a DPS!
(As always, all 5 star weapons are very good on Hu Tao)
- Many other 4-star weapon choices are viable!!
- Dragon’s Bane: the passive stat of Elemental Mastery will always be useful!! Plus, if you run her with Tartaglia or Xingqiu, the damage boost with Hydro and Pyro will be good.
- Lithic Spear: very good if you have Liyue members in your party, and the extra ATK% bonus is beneficial as well.
- White Tassel (very F2P friendly!!) : Provides a substantial crit rate boost, as well as normal attack boost if you manage to get max refinement!
//Note!! Hu Tao has a very low base attack, so if possible, level her weapon up and make sure that it has a high base attack to add to her overall base attack!! This way, when you use her elemental skill, since her ATK is multiplied, you’ll get more damage!
Artifact Choices
It’s quite easy to build your Hu Tao, and there’s a number of routes you can go when building her! Here are a few combinations:
4pc Crimson Witch: will help with Pyro dmg as well as elemental reactions. Overall best pick she will be your main DPS!
4pc Lavawalker: Good boost in Pyro dmg (35%) due to the 4pc bonus! (The 2pc bonus doesn’t really help, tho)
2pc Crimson Witch + 2pc Nobilesse Oblige: good if you’re using her for a burst dps! Will give you Pyro dmg boost and elemental burst dmg!
2pc Crimson Witch + 2pc Gladiator: good for an all-around DPS build, since it gives you Pyro dmg boost and an ATK boost. The only shortcoming is that Hu Tao has a low base attack, so the ATK boost won’t be very substantial.
Prioritize these stats!!
HP% on the hourglass
Pyro DMG on the goblet
Crit Rate/DMG on the Circlet (crit rate preferred since she already gets quite a bit of dmg as a passive!)
Helpful Sub stats:
1. HP, HP%
2. Crit Rate/DMG
3. ATK, ATK%
4. Elemental Mastery
5. Energy Recharge
(DEF is good too but like... not really needed)
Teammates
Hu Tao is very interesting to play, as you always want her below 50% health in order to utilize her passive talent that gives an extra Pyro dmg bonus. Because of this, try not to overheal!!
Consider these teammates!!
- Xingqiu: Very good Vaporize teammate!!! He provides damage off the field, which is very good for when you’re in Hu Tao’s E state. He also heals, but not overkill.
- Zhongli: Shielding is very important for Hu Tao, because once she is under 50% health, it becomes risky to play her. He will help in protecting Hu Tao and also giving enemies a loss in resistance.
- Fischl: Again, very good in an off-the-field damage sense with Oz. She will provide the Overload reaction!
- Diona: Good for Melt, healing, and even a shield!! Overall, a very well-rounded teammate for Hu Tao.
- Tartaglia: You can use him as a secondary DPS for Hu Tao, in that when Hu Tao is on cool down, you can use his E skill to apply hydro!! They have similar tactics and play style in that they both infuse their attacks with an element and have a big AOE burst.
- Chongyun: Good because Hu Tao can override his Cryo circle skill! In other words, when Chongyun does his elemental skill, Hu Tao’s E attacks will remain Pyro instead of Cryo. This way, melt can happen.
- Xiangling: Amazing for Pyro resonance and as a support. Her Elemental burst is very good for while Hu Tao is in E, since you can never have too much Pyro damage
There are numerous other teammates that are great for Hu Tao, I am only listing the ones I am familiar with! Just try not to overheal by using characters such as Barbara or Qiqi, and try not to have a DPS-type character such as Xiao or Razor that may compete for the role of Main DPS. (However, of course, you can do whatever you want!!)
That about sums it up for Hu Tao! She’s an amazing character to play, and definitely hard to learn because of the health restrictions. However, once you master her playstyle, she becomes an amazing and fun-to-play DPS that makes it worth in the end!
Thank you for reading!! 💞
Please leave feedback, or suggestions on who to do next!

Tumblr media
so heres the breakdown after a week and some change... i now have 12 characters; 9 excluding freebies, and almost all of them are ascended
kokomi: i dont really use water characters unless im in the abyss trying to freeze enemies. shes cute but kind of slow and i already hate catalyst users by default but shes alright. also i wanted her from the event but reflecting i shouldve wished for xingqiu because hes a sword style. anyways, goldfish girl
sayu: i got her the other day... another anemo/wind character, which im fine with. shes fun enough to play with and i like her personality. her attacks are fast and i like her special move too. didnt expect to like her but i do.
rosaria: my would-be main if jean wasn't so all around fucking great. she is my everything!!!! i love her attack style, weapon, elemental bursts, characterization, storyline... i could go on for fucking hours, pls stop me. i will commit sins for this woman. this pixel woman. so blessed to have rolled her
jean: oh look my main. my first main at that! also my first five star i rolled with no effort whatsoever. what do i have to say, acting grand master just fucks ok? shes my go-to for climbing, running, and fanning out my elemental attacks. shes extremely fun and a staple character imo!
sucrose: i hate you. i hate you so fucking much. being a catalyst was enough but this bitch is so fucking useless... ive actually watched genshin players before say that shes a venti equivalent or better than him... i have no fucking comment. she does nothing, she dies everytime i pull her out, maybe i just dont know how to play with catalyst characters but she just sucks all of the fun out of fighting enemies for me. i hate you, please delete yourself <3
noelle: i would have created a similar rant for noelle before having played with her some more today. shes extremely helpful in the liyue region at least. everything geo, i go to this girl for. i feel guilty when i dont use her there since she breaks everything so easily and fights decently. i have a big four and it shows. anyways shes been very helpful so i wont say anything too bad about her. she is a little slow though whereas i enjoy more fast paced attacks and overall speedy characters
beidou: ah, my eyepatched queen. at first i didnt like her playstyle when i tried her out for the event but she grew to be a favorite go to. i have rolled 3 beidous by now in my career. highly unrecommended but at least i get to make progress on her constellation. (no xingqiu, i cry) nevertheless, i totally enjoy eletro characters so i feel very blessed to have her on board and paired with my beautiful one and only rosaria
xiangling: i have a very soft spot for her character wise. her story was entirely endearing and i think of her everytime i go to liyue to buy from her father. i was extremely excited to get my hands on a new pyro character as amber with her bow can be pretty limited as fighting goes. her attacks are swift and beautiful. i also enjoy goubas addition to the team. throughly a nice character, part of my big 4
barbara: youre entitled to love barbara if you love jean/rosaria. which i do love both entirely. so, yes. i REALLLYYYYY love her despite her catalyst weapon. her healing abilities make up for a majority of my hatred for catalyst characters. also i just believe that her hydro quality is very helpful when necessary. i would easily put her above kokomi.
lisa: love/hate relationship. i love her in the story with jean and her librarian whimsy but character-playability wise... i dont use her very often no, but when i do shes pretty fun. still i have my grief with catalystic characters. she dies too quickly but ive recently learned how to combine elements (i dont read the fucking instructions im sorry) anyways shes fine i guess but i can quickly say i hate her instead
kaeya: oh my pretty boy. pretty icy boy. if you knew how many times i have killed him during commissions, quest missions, the abyss... you would never let me main him ever again. i DO keep him out of my 4 BECAUSE of this. unless hes paired with rosaria, im fucking hopeless playing with him in hopes of doing cryo damage. its not like i dont like him!!! I FUCJING LOVE KAYEA ANSHHSJDJFJFJ ... but um yea i dont exactly know how to play with him so hes just my baby boy i keep stored away
amber: you are the one to hate! but i do not entirely hate you. i love your characterization, your design, BOBA????? pls, ok im sorry i dont hate her. shes my girl. i get excited everytime she pops up in the story. her bow attacks suck but at least shes useful for killing animals. i kill lots of birds with her. fowls are hard to come by ok??? anyways i love her even if i dont totally use her in battles
also the last character i got was sayu/xiangling 3 days ago so thats fun... (im stuck and i cant get another character, girl help)

(same genshin anon from yesterday) yes keqing! my first 5 star character. got her from xiao's banner. she's super fun to play. her skill is quite handy to use. im trying to get mona up - i think she'll fit into a team i want to try. plus her personality is fun. THOSE MUSHROOMS. AWFUL. sucrose is fun. her skill and burst are nice but idk she just doesn't ever fit *right* so i don't use her much. yes, your love of zhongli is so fun to me (1/4 oopsies)
1/4 oopsies LMAOO
(2/4) i wasn't playing genshin back when his banner was out, but it was so fun watching you talk about him all the time. hope they rerun his banner sometime soon (but i doubt it since it wasn't too long ago). I AM SO SICK OF ALL THE XIANGLINGS. i just want xingqui and chongyun from the banner ugh. yeah i would recommend the spiral abyss. you get a nice chunk of primos and if you haven't done it in a while i'm sure you can sweep the first few floors. xiao = win win win
(3/4) i do try to have decent stats. just shove together the characters i like and find decent artifacts and make it work lol. AH the friendships.. that takes so long lol. ive got xiao, keqing, and barbara at 5 and the rest are much lower. and thanks! i am so loving hu tao so far! she's... not quite up to level with anyone else i use yet but we're getting there. she does decent enough that i keep her on my team lol. ooo a claymore team sounds fun!
(4/4) i do quite enjoy the claymores. i think i prefer the polearms a bit better though (rip we need more polearm users). and yeah ): wish there was a bit better way to farm exp. idk the resin system is... alright... wish it was a bit better though. i feel like i can never get done what i want. like i constantly have to choose if i want to farm like weapon materials or talent materials or whatever. and like same diona and xinyan are my only decent shields :/ and yeah the oceanid is.. something..
LMAO those mushrooms really were a pain i remember just going back and forth between mondtstadt, that other nearby town i’m forgetting the name of, and the dawn winery just scaling every fucking wall possible it was truly annoying and coupled with the fact that she’s hydro so you have to fight the oceanid to level her up really makes mona a true pain to level up jfaldkjfds
tbh idk a lot about sucrose i think most people use her as like an anemo battery? and she’s useful with characters like xiao who do better when all the enemies are centralized which is why i kinda want her lmao. but yeah her never “fitting right” is mona for me lmaooo
yeah i think it’ll be a while until we get zhongli back :( the only other character i really wanna pull is scaramouche IF he’s even playable lmao he’s gonna be so far fucking out. i think rosaria is coming out soon but it looks like she’s only a 4-star so idk who our next 5-star is looking to be. and xingqiu x chongyun really the dream team LMAO frozen smashing for days
hahaha xiao = win win win is so true... i think i’m like at stage 5 or 6 or whatever but with xiao i definitely feel like i can get further fjkldaj the main problem was like i never had a good second team but i’ve leveled up enough other characters i can probably tackle it now
the friendships really do take FOREVER lmao like fischl was literally the FIRST character i pulled so the fact she only recently got all the way up to 10 friendship ajfdklafj and yayay glad to hear you’re enjoying hu tao!!
yeah and along with lack of polearm users there also doesn’t seem to be many good polearm weapons?? idk i feel like i have so many claymores jfadlkjfdas. also i just looked up there are literally only 4 polearm characters right now holy shit that’s so sad ;___;
and same about the experience, you barely get shit from battling so you can really only level up with those book/note things idr what they’re actually called and they’re SO hard to mine. and then there’s all the talents and shit.... sigh lmao. genshin really makes you schedule and portion your resin lmao
i think my only kind of okay shield is noelle because i used her really early on but i ditched her pretty early when i get new characters jkaldsf

Pokémon Black 2 Randomized Nuzlocke Run [Part 9]
All eight badges earned, so what does that leave?
Pirates.
Team for the task?
Vertex (Luxray)
Caspet (Gengar)
Stormy (Metagross)
Photon (Rayquaza)
Nessy (Milotic)
Diego (Gardevoir)
...Those who did not participate in the last Gym, raise hands or whatever you have in place of hands for grinding.
Tumblr media
#LET ME LEAVE THE GYM WITHOUT A CONVERSATION GEN 5 CHALLENGE.
Tumblr media
Colress, I swear, if you pull a Euicine and make me fight you for the honor of not fighting the Terrakion...
He does not. He gives us a toy and basically says to check out the cave that I need Strength to go through more thoroughly. The Giant Chasm pirates are still blocking my way, so.
Siiiiiigh.
Box crew! What have you got for me!
I will take out Bessy, the level 33 Miltank, and teach her Strength.
Tumblr media
Bessy is Modest and somewhat vain, but that doesn’t matter because she’s just here for HMs. She’s temporarily taking Vertex’s place, since Vertex isn’t in need of more experience.
Ah. Actually, Strength just lets you get Toxic. Which is fine, but sorry Vertex, guess I threw you out of the squad for nothing.
Tumblr media
Hey we found the boat!
Marlon lets us aboard. Thought: I should go put Bessy back in the box and grab Vertex in case something goes wrong. Except that would take time.
...I am going to go put Bessy back in the box and grab Vertex.
After shifting a boulder on Route 22. And grinding for a bit.
Okay. A few hours later, I am more comfortable entering the pirate ship. Team levels are now 56-60. That is absolutely a balanced assessment of my current team. It is in no way misleading.
Tumblr media
Me!
...This is the greatest grunt ever. He calls Marlon Smiley Swimsuit. Yes. You have perfectly boiled down his character essentials.
Oh wait, he has a Watchdog.
Sorry pirate friend. We can’t be friends.
Russell, my actual friend, is trying to go on his roaring rampage of revenge. Only as a responsible big brother, not a Sasuke.
I used to have a Sasuke. No more.
...I should have named Russell Itachi. If there’s ever a next time...
I continue to find it delightful that after N leaves, Team Plasma ditches their knight theme for a pirate one. I don’t even know why, I just love it. I love knight aesthetic, I love pirate aesthetic. My castle was right next to my pirate ship for most of my childhood, and it rocked.
Though my pirates wouldn’t steal people’s pets. A key difference. Pirate in name only. Well. And clothing. Pirate is just a more fun word than sailor, and pirates have looser fashion.
Tumblr media
Mook time over?
Tumblr media
Technically this one isn’t stealing.
Just animal abuse.
The villain of this game is just a salty old man who spent so much time in a refrigerator he decided the rest of the world should spend time in a refrigerator, too. Then he found out his region has a legendary Dragon/Ice type, and the rest is history.
Only history I have to repeat.
Because the villain of a Pokemon game decided his winning strategy would be shooting bolts of ice down at the world below.
Video games are the greatest.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
...Wait. How did me and Russell get down here? Did Team Plasma just throw us off?
Also, yes Cheren. They use everything for evil. They’re the bad guys.
And then Cheren asks where the people Zekrom and Reshiram recognized are and. I wonder if he misses his friend. his best friend, [last game protagonist]. How much does it suck that he spent a full game with [person], and now they’ll never see each other again because [person] is bound to a different dimension. A world Cheren can’t touch.
Canon has, what. Red who comes back? Every other protagonist kind of just. vanishes as far as future references to that world are concerned. And Red spends quite some time up on a mountain. Alone.
These games are all about people who swoop in and birth legends, then vanish.
I made myself sad.
Anyway, to the Giant Chasm!
Tumblr media
Totally bro.
Aw crud. Do I need Strength? I think I might need Strength. Can I mayhaps avoid that?
Oh. I could just go down the giant stairs.
Tumblr media
Wow. Talk about your parties.
Tumblr media
ONE MORE TIME ON THE BOAT.
Tumblr media
I hate password games. At least the ship supplies a doctor early on. I wasn’t to the point of active concern, but I was feeling a bit itchy about using up healing items. I haven’t grown out of my usual standard in these games where I just let everything in my party die to avoid spending money.
Tumblr media
Agreed, let’s roll you.
This guy just keeps throwing Cryogonal at me.
You know, I don’t have a lot to complain about regarding these games and their choices. I whine about everything, but all in all, I find all of them very solid and enjoyable. Even if gen 4 has too many HM requirements wtf just stop.
This isn’t really a complaint, but it is a confusion. Zinzolin is fought multiple times in a relatively small window, and his team never changes. We just keep beating him. I get the sense that they wanted a villain, but as a sequel game to a gen that went all out on that, they didn’t really have anything they were willing to turn into a threat.
Really, I feel like a better path to pick would have been giving one of the Plasma grunts a different hat and having them be the captain of a very confused and angry crew. But eh, whatever.
Tumblr media
....Oh. You.
Why is the most anime hair dude in the game so gosh darn forgettable?
For the sake of my flawed memory, he wants to bring out the full potential of pokemon, and is willing to us whatever means are necessary. The only question is which approach actually yields results.
I like you, Colress. I am never going to remember you, but I like you.
Tumblr media
Good grief his theme sounds like it came out of Phantasy Star.
First up is a level 50 Magneton. Caspet’s an okay choice, so I’ll just Shadow Ball it. Magneton Thunder Waves Caspet, then uses Volt Switch to swap in Beheeyem (also level 50), who takes a Shadow Ball and dies instantly.
Sorry, ‘faints.’
A level 50 Metang is switched in next. Out of twitchiness over Caspet’s paralyzed state, I put Nessy in and go with Surf. Metang uses Agility from the red. Colress uses a Full Restore. Metang hits a Zen Headbutt, but Nessy has the last laugh.
Ugh. Colress is going to send in a Magnezone. Stormy’s the best answer to that, I think. Stormy knows Hammer Arm. It hits, but like everything I hate, Magnezone has Sturdy. A Bullet Punch handles that.
A level 52 Klinklang is next. His only thing over 50. Stormy is paralyzed thanks to Magnezone, but a Hammer Arm that hits should end it, and I don’t think Klinklang knows anything that’s a threat.
Even if Stormy feels like being paralyzed.
Only once, though. Hammer Arm + Bullet Punch does the job, and we only have that pesky Magneton left.
Hammer Arm and we are done.
Tumblr media
Please don’t make me fight another one of these clowns. I don’t wanna.
Tumblr media
Aw heck, Russell’s having his moment with Purrloin drama. And I guess I’m not fighting robe dude. It’s all ninja for now. With my four pokemon who aren’t paralyzed. Maybe I should have fixed that.
Tumblr media
:(
For real though, our rival’s plotline here is pretty dang sad. He wants his little sister’s pokemon back, and by the time he finds it, it isn’t hers anymore. It’s had an entirely different life without them, probably committing crime. Because it’s been told to.
This is why you get the pirate Plasmas and the knight Plasmas. It’s fantastic that you, the protagonist, has a crew of pokemon perfectly happy fighting and doing whatever you want. But living things being forced to do whatever you want them to because you happened to throw a ball at them is pretty screwed up.
There’s not really a satisfactory conclusion to all of this, since critique of a game mechanic that is never going to stop being a game mechanic doesn’t get to start dramatic revolutions regarding that mechanic, but it’s all very sad and sobering.
Tumblr media
That pretty ice tho.
Tumblr media
BUT WHERE IS THE PROTAGONIST FROM THE LAST GAME.
No, but thank you N. I was not ready to die at the hands of Kyurem. Your assistance is much appreciated, and pretty great in your sequel. Props.
Tumblr media
Gee, that looks bad.
Cue dramatic anime battle sequence.
Tumblr media
Followed by anime transformation sequence.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Welp. Time to kill you. Let’s just hope I can.
...Stormy. I think I might want you to tackle this. To the front you go.
Tumblr media
But really.
So damn cool.
Tumblr media
It’s dead now, but so. cool.
Tumblr media
There are too many fights going on. I think I wouldn’t mind in a normaly playthrough, but for a Nuzlocke, this is needlessly stressful and I am not a fan also I beat Ghetsis in the last game and it wasn’t fun then, either.
He has six pokemon, and he opens with a level 50 Cofagrigus. That is not Stormy’s friend. Nessy, if you would. Hydro Pump hits. Toxic hits from the other side, and I will deal with that in a moment, after the Cofagrigus is gone.
Ghetsis, naturally, uses a Full Restore.
Nessy handles it in the end, but is down to 73 health. Eelektross is coming out next. Time to switch. To... uh. I’ll give Photon a whirl. Feeling lucky, I use Outrage, and Eelektross faints.
Ah. Hydreigon is out next.
That is a nasty type combo for my team to deal with. I think. Geez, mark this where I have all the regrets, but Photon’s staying in to murder the Hydreigon with Outrage. Ganbatte.
IT’S SUPER EFFECTIVE AND A CRITICAL HIT, GOOD JOB PHOTON.
Seismitoad is next. Diego, time for you and your Magical Leaf to shine. Shine they do, and we’re on to Drapion, which I will leave to Photon. Two Air Slashes make their mark, and all that’s left is Toxicroak, so in you stay Photon.
AND WE’RE DONE HERE, SCREW YOU GHETSIS!
Tumblr media
But where is that certain Trainer, N????
Anyway, with that, it looks like the plot portion of this Nuzlocke is over. All that’s left is heading up to challenge the Elite Four.
I think a battle like that can have its own part.

lmao hi here’s my final baby she is the love of my life i’ve known her for 8 years i think and she’s come a long way sdfkgh please love her as much as i love her. if i was fictionkin i’d identify solely with her (and she’s not even a self insert ! wow !) **IM STILL ON HAITUS UNTIL MONDAY BUT I HAD THIS READY TO GO LMAO**
TW: ALCOHOLISM, DRUG ABUSE? MENTIONS.
gen. info
full name: saige alouette beaumont
nickname(s): she...doesn’t have any in this timeline but PLEASE, she LOVES nicknames. she’s a nickname slut.
b.o.d. - july 7th, 20 whole yrs old.
label(s): the hedonist, the icarcian, the reveler, etc. etc.
height: 5′7″ thank u very much !!
hometown: thibodaux, louisiana
sexuality: firstly when aren’t my babies bi as FUCK (minus aster). but she also prefers masc-presenting folks
biography
the only child of a world renown fashion designer named manon lévêsque (surname kept b/c Branding) and US lieutenant general robert beaumont
manon’s brand is like...on the level of chanel, and dior, and shit, y’know??
manon’s...obv french, very french. born n raised in france. 
robert beaumont comes from a very southern family, all located in louisana. also french, just more...american.
they’re fucking loaded
saige’s childhood wasn’t the...Usual, childhood. they moved around a lot as due to both of her parents’ jobs. (’cos robert wasn’t ALWAYS a 4-star army man smh)
the longest they’ve rly stayed in one place (minus saige’s ucla yrs) is like...two yrs, tops ??
due 2 that she didn’t rly make...a lotta friends?
but when she DID , it was always the most interesting ppl she could find
but her parents were always SUPER strict
it was like they came together purely to mold the perfect child
like, they controlled where she went! what she wore! who she interacted with! what she watched or read or listened to!
she’d have bodyguards on her when her parents were busy, not nannies
she was taught all the proper things ladies were to learn, like cooking and sewing and ballroom dancing, and more
she was also taught how to drop a man to his knees in less than 10 seconds and how to shoot a gun, but that was it in terms of self defense skdfgh
eventually saige got bored with a life of being carefully watched and attending military balls and fashion runways
how do u surround a girl w/ so much culture and expect her to not want to experience life for what it is?
she learned how to dodge guards in order to go canoeing in the full moon with strangers she’d met five hrs prior, and how to blend in at festivals filled with throat-melting sweet drinks
she almost landed in a tabloid at the age of 15 for sneaking out w/ a boy three years older and her parents paid a lot of money to hide it.
no matter how much they tried to keep her rooted, saige always found a way to bend the rules and escape her lil golden cage
like they even had her homeschooled w/ the best tutors one could pay for n she still yeeted tf out whenever she could
born for the party life t b h
they decided that the best course of action to deal w/ her was to finally keep her in one place so they p much made her go to ucla lmao
homegirl did NOT want to go at first, just ‘cos she HATES being rooted to one place, is used to traveling the world and seeing shit and learning other cultures n shit, y’know ??
but then she joined theta sigma eta lmao n the parties ??
fucking amazing
it didn’t take a lot for her to be convinced to stay, esp ‘cos her parents didn’t quite realize...how big the party scene is
(not like they could’ve sent her to like...harvard or smth...homegirl’s smart but not THAT smart lmaooo)
unfortunately, saige has piss poor self control; and this was too much freedom for her. she was being Too Wild
anyWays the summer before her current year (i ... think she’s a sophomore ?) she went to a particularly wild party and somehow ended up at one of her mother’s collection launch parties w/ a pal of hers !!
and she totally embarrassed her mom !! in front of everybody !! being lil’ ol drunk n freshly 20 yr old !
after that saige was NOT welcomed at home (wherever home was, at the moment, that is). she wasn’t DISOWNED ‘cos that’d be HORRIBLE for the press n god, imagine the media ?? it would worsen it all
but she wasn’t allowed at home. wasn’t allowed with them. wasn’t allowed to see them unless at events they specifically ordered her to come to for press reasons
doesn’t really...know where she’s going to go in the summer ‘cos the summer she Fucked Up she lived out of hotel suites and friend’s couches. n like yeah she can just Buy a place or smth but ?? commitment ?? adult decisions ?? christ !
nobody knows her parents have essentially kicked her tf out and aren’t even talkin’ to her, ‘cos homegirl’s ashamed
it isn’t rly hard to hide it tho ‘cos her parents still give her a shit ton of money LMAO rich privilege
but it can’t fix how absolutely hurt she is
the alcohol , however, COULD
started partying more, and more intensely, and didn’t stop when the parties did
alcohol became part of her diet.
irish cream in her mornin’ coffee, coke n rum at lunch, vodka and like...23 packets of crystal lite in her hydro flask during lectures
without alcohol, she suffers terrible withdraws and those turn her into a completely different person
noBoDy KnoWs
or if they do, they don’t realize the extent of it! just how bad it is! ‘cos she’s a big ol’ faker
she’s fine it’s FINE
personality
i actually have...traits i’ve written for her
positive traits:
kindhearted, optimistic, energetic, dreamy, charismatic, intelligent (to...a degree, lmao), active, charismatic, sympathetic, amiable
negative traits:
naive, dumb (to...a degree, double lmao), self-destructive, spiteful, stubborn, defensive, inattentive, unstable, loud, reckless
but ANYWAYS
if she wants to do smth, she’ll do it
there’s no way to talk her outta whatever she has set in her mind, even if it’s fucking STUPID
‘cos she’s stupid and we love her for it
uuuUuUuUuUUUUhh
she’s a vegetarian, loves animals too much 2 do it
has adhd but she’s not medicated ‘cos her parents suck n young girls r always severely under diagnosed ‘cos doctors also suck
she’s allergic to cats, pumpkins, and penicillin
loves cats
she does her own stick n’ pokes, n will do ur stick n’ pokes if u ask. Loves doin ‘em, but she can’t draw for shit LMAO
however ! she does play three instruments:
piano, violin, n bass guitar
hates piano w/ a burning passion ‘cos she was p much forced to learn. thinks violin is lit as fuck. bass guitar? her fav thing ever. did it as an act of rebellion.
also, even tho she’s just....a whole ass dumbass, she knows like...four languages
yes including english
anyways she knows uUUuUH french, spanish, n latin (for funsies)
is also learning mandarin, german, n irish gaelic (for funsies)
is a big language slut, essentially
and a uh...slut in general
like she just rly loves everybody
she’s SUPER friendly, super confident, like...the best gal to know, ‘cos she’s got sm energy n if u don’t talk a lot ? that’s fine ! she’ll talk for u ! even if u don’t ask her to !
but yes she’s not like EASY but she’s easy
she’s had a few short-term relationships and even fewer long-term relationships
and she doesn’t ! have commitment issues !
doesn’t like getting hurt but also ! she will fall in love w/ anybody !
(i’m kidding every time i’ve ever played her in all my years she’s always, always attracted to like...grumpy tough ppl. that’s her type. do u sell drugs? she loves u. do u get into pointless fights and have constantly bruised knuckles? she loves u. did u sell ur soul to the devil? oh, she rly does love u.)
actually thinks rly low of herself but would NEVER let ANYBODY know that ‘cos god forbid
just keep smilin’ :)
probably uses finger guns
skateboards into EVERYTHING she’s fucking CLUMSY and stupid
will wear gucci on top of her thrift finds (stop going to goodwill if ur nearly a billionaire u dumbass)
that being said she’s not always........aware? she’s not shallow but she’s kind of just...she’ll throw her money at u if u can’t afford smth, and like...doesn’t know how taxes work? and also...doesn’t know how poor ppl go on living?
like she’s highly dependent on her money
she has three fucking cars ‘cos she just thought they were PRETTY
one’s a pick up truck w/ LED lights, one’s the literal car from the princess diaries, and the other’s just a real fast sports car
totally does illegal street racing but ? only sometimes ? mostly for funsies rly doesn’t care abt money at all LMAO
she’s...not very independent
she’s got an addictive personality, y’see?
does MANY drugs, like mdma (ecstasy? molly?), coke, shrooms, acid, the marijuanas. i think that’s it.
a lil bit of a cokehead but only at parties okay uwu
idk how but she always manages to be laidback and yet also super energized at the same time. she just truly, does not give a single shit
also i said she was dumb earlier and like...TRUE
excels at english, history, etc. etc.
but as soon as math or science is involved? fart noise
bad shit
hate it
she can’t focus on shit she doesn’t like so like...that doesn’t help
in other news, she can be best described as a DRUNK TINKERBELL
as she was originally a pixie. it’s suiting
she’s ... almost ethereal
will tease u. will act like she’s known u for years. this is normal for saige.
she’s just rly BUBBLY and FUN okay ! pls love her
like pretty please
she’s my best muse by far and i’ve been rping since 2010
OH okay so like fun fact: her mother still sends her pieces that she hasn’t released yet so saige’s closet is filled w/ clothes she will nvr wear ‘cos she refuses to in order to Spite her Mother
also will GIVE these EXCLUSIVE UNreleased articles of clothing to her FRIENDS as GIFTS as a big FUCK U to the MAN (mom)
she’s just a dumbass
wanted connections
ok so gimme a blackmailer who knows abt saige’s like...issues, n instead of tryn to help her they use it to their advantage to get whatever they want from her :^)
also a TUTOR ‘cos she’s stupid in math n science
party pals like do i even have to explain
childhood friend(s) or like...acquaintances ?? she’s traveled for so long
da PLUG gimme her DEALER

Two Worlds Collide - Dan Howell Imagine Part 5
Tumblr media
Word Count : 1,619
Trigger Warnings: Mention of getting sick, swearing, fluffffff GENDEr REVEAL ~!!!
A/N : So I really love this story. I just have been too busy to write. It’s been a MONTH since I’ve updated this o_o my b. I will try harder I promise. I hope you enjoy. I would also love if you guys sent baby name suggestions in the inbox because I will undoubtedly pick a lame one because I am not v creative. BE A PART OF THE STORY! Enjoy, you spoons <3
Part 4
-----------------------
“Are you done yet, love? We’re gonna be late if we don’t leave soon,” Dan asked as he leaned against the doorway to his bedroom. I finished pulling my pants over the small swell of my 14-weeks-pregnant stomach and looked up at him with a small pout.
“I did not miss not fitting into my pants,” I told him before swiping my hair out of my face and sighing. Dan glanced at me and chuckled a little bit as he shook his head. “Looks like I’ll be living in leggings and yoga pants starting in a few weeks.” 
I grabbed my bag off of Dan’s unmade bed and walked towards the lengthy male who still stood against the doorway. “Let’s go and get a look at our little monkey bean and see how he’s doing,” Dan said as he grabbed my hand. We headed out the door, and as we were on our way down to my car, I turned my gaze to Dan smiling a little. As he opened the door for me, he narrowed his eyes at me a bit and chuckled nervously. 
“What?” 
“It’s a girl,” I told him, not looking away from him, or weakening my smile. Dan let out a laugh that was straight from his chest as he let go of my hand so I could get in the passenger’s seat and buckle up. Dan was in charge of driving since I was throwing up every inconvenient moment in the world. Dinner with Phil? Vom. Dan’s mother and I shopping? Hydro pump. Needless to say, nobody wanted the driver to puke all over the dashboard.
“What’s so funny about that?” I asked and brought my brows together a bit. 
“Nothing. You’re just too cute,” Dan stated as I sat and buckled up. He then came around to the other side and started the car to go. This was the second doctor’s appointment for our little monkey bean, as Dan continuously referred to the baby as. The first appointment was just to confirm that the pregnancy tests weren’t faulty. Obviously, they weren’t as fifteen minutes after pulling out of the driveway we were back in the little room that Dan swore was a converted janitor’s closet. 
He investigated our surroundings as I was laid back in the cold chair, our fingers laced tightly in anticipation. “Too many people were getting pregnant and they didn’t have enough rooms, so this is what they did with it,” Dan looked at me and gave me a look that made me laugh at him a little bit. 
In my best Marcia Brady voice, I replied with, “Sure, Jan.” 
Moments later, my doctor walked in and asked how we were, how I was feeling, all of those cliches checkup questions. She knew how on-edge I was about this pregnancy and how scared I was, so I appreciated the lack of prying. She kindly asked me to lift my shirt so she could lather me in the disgustingly cold gel and rub the little wand over my swelling stomach. I flinched slightly as I was set up, but was soon brought back to the present as Dan spoke.
“Look! There he is!” Dan squealed and pointed at the screen as the black and white image appeared. The love in his eyes was indescribable, and I was lucky enough to be on the receiving end of that look on a number of occasions. I couldn’t help myself, though, as I had to push his buttons. 
“She is beautiful.” I teased and bit my lower lip to control my wide smile. Dan rolled his eyes playfully and squeezed my hand gently. 
“Yea, whatever,” he replied and did his best to hold back a smile.
“Do you want to hear the heartbeat?” Dr. Atwood asked with a polite smile as her hand went to touch a button on the monitor. 
“Yes!” Dan and I insisted in sync. The room was then filled with the sound of a beautiful, loud pumping noise. I squeezed Dan’s hand tightly and bit my lip harder as I stared at the image and took in the sound of our baby’s heartbeat that filled the room around us. I could feel my eyes tearing up, despite having heard it a few weeks ago. The fear was still sitting in me, but the excitement and love that I held for this baby growing inside of me definitely overpowered the fear.
“So,” the doctor interrupted my thoughts. “you’re pretty early on in your pregnancy, but your baby is growing pretty quickly. They’re about the size of a large peach. If you’d like, I can settle your little debate over the gender right now. They’re flashing us the good stuff.” Dr. Atwood told us and chuckled a little bit before she looked over at us.
Dan and I play argued over the gender all of the time, and to be totally honest, I only insist we’re having a girl because he started calling the baby by male pronouns. In reality, neither of us cared what the sex was. For all we knew, it could change over time and we would love them no matter what.
I turned to look at Dan and squinted as I tried to make up my mind. “I kinda wanna know. I didn’t think we’d be able to find out today..” I admitted and turned back to the doctor. “Last time, I didn’t find out until week twenty.”
“Well, every woman, baby, and pregnancy is different. Matthew wasn’t as provocative as this little one, for instance.” She explained kindly. I bit my lip as I returned my gaze back over to Dan with a pleading look in my eyes. I wanted to know, as it took 3 months to pick out “Matthew”, we would need all the time in the world to come up with a new name. Plus, we were going to love the ever-loving fuck out of this baby. He just smiled at me an nodded his head as he kissed the back of my hand. 
“Tell us. We’d like to know,” Dan stated politely and stared into my eyes. I could feel the lump in my throat and I couldn’t tell if it was fear, excitement or both. 
“Well, Y/N, Daniel...” she paused to add some suspense. “Congratulations on your baby girl!” 
I let out a bit of a breath and chuckled a little as I closed my eyes. Dan leaned in and kissed my lips softly. I kissed him back sweetly, eyes closed as I poured every word I couldn’t articulate into the kiss. Once I opened my eyes, smiling,  a few tears escaped. I was in pure bliss at this moment. Dan took his thumb and gently wiped the tears from my cheek as we made eye contact again. 
“You were right, love,” he admitted and smiled.
I chuckled and nodded my head. “That’s a first, huh?” I joked and kissed him again softly. I could hear the doctor begin to print out the photos for us, so I looked over at her and then glanced at the monitor again. “A baby girl,” was all I said as I leaned my head back. 
“Here you go, I have 6 copies for you. I circled her in two of them so that you’ll be able to see her and show her off to your families without having to look for her.” Dr. Atwood teased as she handed us the long piece of photo paper with 6 photos of our baby girl. Dan took it and scanned the length slowly, taking in every frame. 
“Thank you, so much. So much, doctor,” I started as I also began to stare at the photos. “It means a lot.” 
“It’s my job, sweetie. But you’re very welcome. “ she told us with a slight chuckle. “You guys can make your next appointment at the front desk with Andrea. Have a great day, guys. Call if you need anything.” She explained as she cleaned me up and sent us on our way.
Dan and I wasted no time making our appointment for the next month and going back to his flat. In the car, I spent the whole time studying the sonograms, wanting to memorize how our baby girl looked. As soon as I walked through the front door, I squealed and pulled Dan in through the door. 
“We’re having a girl!” I yelled as he picked me up so I could wrap my legs around his torso. I giggled and leaned in to kiss him as I held the sonograms in my hand. The kiss was interrupted by the sound of a voice I would never get tired of. 
“Did I hear that right?! You’re having a girl?” Phil asked as he walked into the lounge. 
“Yes! Yes! Yes!” I replied and giggled as Dan set me down. I ran over to Phil and showed him the long piece with all of the photos on it. 
“You were right, Y/N! Congrats guys!” Phil said excitedly as he hugged me and then Dan. 
“I can’t believe it still, to be honest,” Dan admitted with a slight chuckle before he walked over to me and rested his hand on my stomach. 
“I think this calls for popcorn and ice cream followed by a Star Wars marathon?” Phil suggested as he continued to study the sonograms. He was just as invested in this pregnancy as Dan and I was. A very excited uncle-to-be, Phil was. 
“I agree,” Dan concluded before kissing my head and escorting the four of us, yes the four of us, into the kitchen to celebrate our glorious day in a way that was very much like us.

Coleman Saluspa Inflatable Hot Tub Parts & Reviews - Green & White If you want a hot bubble bath with your friends, then this is an ideal hot tub for you. It has multiple jets that help to provide a spa-like experience. One thing that gives this hot tub the first place in the review list is its digital control system.

Best 3-4 Person Hot Tubs Buying Guide
Whenever we proceed to buy the best 4-person hot tubs, then we are always stuck between the attractive design and a lot of models. Thus, we here explain some of the things that you need to consider before buying the best hot tub for you. Let's have a look at them. What is a Hot Tub? A hot tub is a small bathing tub used for hydrotherapy and spa. These hot tubs have jets that help to make you relax and remove your tiredness. Apart from this, it comes with insulation covers that help to retain the heat. In contrast to this, it has a suitable design for four to five people. The bubble air jets that are incorporated in these tubs help to create a constant flow of water in the tub.
What are the benefits of a hot tub ?
There are a lot of benefits of having a hot tub in which some of them are as follows; Relief from stress Stress causes muscle tension and fatigue. Stress causes muscle tension and fatigue. Thus, having a hot water bath in these hot tubs helps in releasing tension. Thereby, it helps in relief from the stress. The bubbles jets present in the hot tub helps to restore muscle strength. Lower down the diabetic risk Research has shown that soaking yourself in the hot water tub for 30 minutes a day helps to reduce the risk of diabetes. It lowers down the blood glucose level and improves insulin uptake, which in turn reduces the glucose level. Thus, by having a bath in the hot tub helps in reducing the blood sugar. Improves sleep Having a hot water bath before bed helps in improving sleep. Soaking yourself in hot water reduces tension, anxiety, and stress. And in turn, it helps in improving sleep. The research shows that a hot water bath relaxes muscle tension, which helps in better sleep. Improving sleep helps in improving concentration and more focus on learning. Improve weight loss Taking a sauna bath helps in eliminating toxic substances from the body. And this eventually reduces the cholesterol level in the blood and helps in the breakdown of fat cells, which in turn stimulates weight loss. Thus, having a hot water bath helps in reducing weight loss. Lower blood pressure The hot water bath helps in dilating the vessels, which in turn improves the blood flow in the blood vessels. Thus, lower down the blood pressure. Things to consider before buying the best 4-person hot tubs Size of the tub The size of the tubs matters a lot while obtaining the best 4-person hot tub for you. For example, a small hot tub can accommodate only two people, but a large hot tub can accommodate four to six people at one time. Thus, if you have a large family and you want a perfect hot tub so that you can enjoy a hot water bath with your family, then always prefer to have the large size tub. The above mentioned models are some of the best and high carrying capacity hot tubs. So, if you want, then you can have it from them. Air jets The next important thing to consider while buying the 3-person hot tubs are these air jets. These jets help maintain the flow of the water and provide you a luxurious spa feeling which you can enjoy in your homes. Usually, hot tubs have 120 to 114 air jets, including bubble jets that help to provide a massage-like feeling. More than that, this helps to deal with sore muscle aches. Thus, when you proceed to buy a hot tub for you, make sure it has maximum air jets. Tool-free installation This is obvious that we don't want to juggle with the installation of the hot tub. So, be sure to prefer to have the best four-person hot tub that has a tool-free design. It makes sense to have a no-tool design because you are going to use outdoors, and if you are not able to install without hassles, then it is not worthy of having the hot tub. Insulation cover Another most important thing to look at before buying the best hot tub for you is insulation cover. An insulation cover helps to retain the heat in the tub for a long time. Thereby keep the water hot for up to 72 hours so that you can enjoy a hot water bath consistently. Therefore, make sure to check the insulation cover in the hot tub before buying it. Moreover, it also helps in improving the blood circulation and improves weight loss too. Besides this, you will also receive a lot of other benefits as well by having these hot tubs.

Thank you for your referrals!  Thank you for recommending us, or the classes to those you know (and on Facebook too), and THANK YOU for letting us to be part of your home adventures. We appreciate you so much
Now...on to our weekly home buyer education!  I know I said we are going to talk about what happens AFTER the home inspection, but first I thougt we should talk about about Buyers Due Diligence, and why this is so important for you.     I saw a very interesting home this week that was right across the street from a cemetery.  Now, that wouldn't bother me, but for some folks...that would be a BIG thing.  My clients liked the land but did not like the house...the house was ...  interesting.  It was a 1925 home, that had been 'worked' on over the years, and probably not professionally.  When I am showing homes to clients, I get asked many questions about the home....some I can answer and some I can't.   Some of the answers we can find out, and some...well, you never really 'know' a home until you are the one living in it.  So, what are some questions I can not answer... is the home haunted?  Um....I don't know?  Has there been a violent crime in the home or in the area?  Um...I don't know?  Believe it or not, that isn't considered a relevant fact when listing the home as it doesn't actually affect the home.  
  When selling a home, the seller (and sellers agent) is only obligated to disclose known material facts about the home on the sellers disclosure, and this is only  about the home during the current sellers ownership.  So what is a 'material fact'?   A 'material fact' is considered to be something that structurally affects the home.  The sellers disclosure is about 6 pages long and the seller is 'supposed to' disclose all known facts about the home on it.  However, if anyone has teenagers you know how often 'supposed to' gets done.  Some sellers will disclose ALL facts about the homes....even those items that have been repaired, some sellers will only disclose those items that they haven't gotten around to fixing, and some sellers just have no idea about anything in their home.  Of course, this is why we do a home inspection.  It isn't that you can't trust the sellers, but when it comes down to it, most sellers don't know anything about their home.  This is called 'Buyers Due Diligence'.  A buyer does have some responsibility for doing some research on the home, and area, that they are wanting, or trying to, buy in.  If your buyers agent knows anything about the home or area then we have to legal responsibility to disclose it.  In Washington, all sellers are required to fill out the 6 page sellers disclosure on their own.  Their Realtor can not do it for them, or help them fill it out.....however, if the seller is a bank, or it is an estate, or an investor then there won't be any sellers disclosures, or if there is, most questions will be answered with "don't know". For every question on the sellers disclosures, the sellers have 4 choices to answer...  "yes, no, don't know, or NA", and every question must be answered....no empty boxes.  When you receive a copy of the sellers disclosure though ...remember to take it with a grain of salt, and hire a good inspector.  Many sellers now will even just put a majority of 'don't know' answers on the sellers disclosure so as to not have any liability.  The majority of sellers aren't trying to 'hide' anything about the home, they just truly don't know.  A realtor will hand the sellers disclosure to their client, the seller, and that is it.  We, real estate agents, can not help the seller fill out the sellers disclosure at all.  If you have any questions regarding anything on the sellers disclosure, your Realtor can request more information (if there is any) from the sellers through their sellers agent.  Make sure you also address any concern you have regarding the homes condition to the home inspector you hire.  He (or she) should be able to help you with that.  The inspector I usually refer out encourages the buyer to walk with him during the home inspection so that the buyer is part of that inspection.  I like to call it a 'crash course in homeowning'.  
By the time he is done with the inspection, my client usually knows more about the home than the current owner does!  I can't stress it enough....ask questions!  You are paying for the home inspection, so walk around with the home inspector, ask questions, learn about what the inspector is checking, and be a part of the home inspection.
  Sometimes, but not often, we will see sellers purposely try to hide something. This sucks.  I had this happen recently with a client. The home in question had been on the market for about 5 months...with 3 different Realtors, and had been pending 2 times before with sale fails. Ok...red flags...3 different Realtors in such a short period of time? Two prior sale fails? hmmm... I asked the current Realtor why the sale fails, and he said there were financing issues.  Ok, sometimes that happens.  I have had that happen on listings of mine too.  Current Realtor was very eager for an offer,and called me about closing costs, etc. My clients liked the home, and the listed price was attractive.  It did need some cosmetic work, but that was ok, for the price and the closing costs. Fast forward to home inspection, and the home passed with flying colors.  Only things that came up was a recalled electric panel (common for the age of the home), and lack of insulation under the home.  Insulation under the home is not required for the age of the home, and was something my clients were willing to do later. The recalled panel would need replaced prior to appraisal as that is something that most likely would be called out.  Where the big issue came was during the sewer scope...  the sewer line from the home to the street had a 35 ft 'bend' in it.  Sewer lines need to go down 1 inch for every foot for optimum flow (yay...the things I know that are weird to know), and due to land settling, etc...this homes sewer line had a dip in it before it went to the street. Ok....it's not like the seller could have known this right? Well, normally I'd agree with you, but in this case he DID KNOW!  Plumber asked us if we knew and we said no (because how would we?)  Plumber then goes on to say that,"well, that's weird, because the seller knows. This home has had a recent sewer scope already done.  There's some paint lines in the street that looks like they were scrubbed off."   Uhhh....what?!  I send this information to the sellers agent (who has no idea),and he assures me that if they knew it would have been on the sellers disclosures (it wasn't). Sellers agent calls his client and then calls me back. At this point both the sellers agent & I know the seller is full of it because the seller told his agent that there was nothing wrong with the sewer line....because he had the city come out and check it a couple of weeks ago and they hydro jetted it. That all of this was just the plumbing contractor and my clients trying to get more money out of him.  Honestly folks, that was our first indication that this deal was going to be hairy & scary...  We requested the recalled panel to be replaced and the sewer line repaired. The seller sent his agent a bid for the sewer line repair that was dated a full 3 weeks BEFORE my client made their offer. When the seller was with Agent #2, and during the 2nd sale fail.  Sale failed because of financing issues...my tush..  
My clients loved many things about the home, and except for the sewer line (and that it needed paint and flooring), it was in excellent condition with a newer roof and new windows. It also had the yard & 2 living spaces that my clients wanted. So, we persisted. Seller did have the panel switched out (with much grumbling).  It cost the seller $700 more than it should have because he tried to go 'cheap' and had to have it redone. The sewer line failed the sewer scope. . at least twice.  The bid that the seller presented was for $10,000 to repair the line.  So now my client had a choice....  do we back out? Do we require the sewer line to be repaired? What do we do? At least one of the previous buyers had backed out because the seller refused to repair the line.  Discussion time...  many of the homes we were looking at with this price range were either smaller and in good condition, or needed a new roof soon (about $7,000 estimate), or new windows (about $5,000),or similar. The sewer line is currently working.  Does it need to be under surveillance? Yes. Will it need to be corrected at some point? Yes. Does it need to be done right now? No.  For my clients they decided to go with the evil you know vs the evil that they may find in another home.  This home was in excellent condition with many things already done (like the new roof, windows, & now a new electric panel)...the only thing that will need to be done will be the sewer line. One thing vs many possible things at a different home.  So I spoke with the sellers agent (who was very dismayed to find out his seller had been lying to him), and they offered a split of the repair cost. What this means is that we had a $10,000 sewer line repair bid. The sellers offered another $4000 in closing costs to offset that repair.  I called my clients lender to ask if my buyers could use all of those closing costs (whatever isn't used is returned to the sellers), and they could!  My clients accepted that compromise as this freed up some money for my clients to do what they wanted to the home to move in... those cosmetic things that they didn't have to put off now.  In the end it worked out.  Of course...that was until closing day....but that is a story for next week....  
 It's not often that seller will blatantly lie on a sellers disclosure.  Most of the time it is something that the sellers don't know about that shows up on a home inspection, or a sewer scope.  However, that is why we do inspections...  because of the things that people don't know, don't think about, and rarely...try to hide.  As I said in my last email... buying a home is a lot like buying a used car.  Most of the time it is all good, but occasionally...occasionally... you find those folks who are trying to get away with something.      Your realtor will help you find out as much about the home as possible.  Your agent should be present at your home inspection, and so should you.  However, whether or not the home is haunted or not, we really can't help you with.  Whether or not there has been a violent crime in the home or area is another thing that we really can't help you with, but we CAN help you by providing some places where you can do some research.  Has anyone died in the home?  Again....I don't know..., but if it is an older home, and/or an estate?  Maybe you should leave out some milk and cookies occasionally?  
  What about that new building being built in the neighborhood?  Your Realtor probably doesn't know what it is, and honestly we shouldn't guess.  That is something that a buyer will want to do some research on.  Is that garage conversion permitted?  Call the city/county.  Your Realtor will help you find the information, but when it comes down to it, because of past legal problems, we are now limited on the extent that we can delve into everything....but we can help you get there still.  It is weird, but there it is.  There is a lot your Realtor can, and will do for you, and we will do all that we can to make sure that you are getting the best customer service possible.  Your Realtor should help you to make sure that you are performing your buyers due diligence to make sure that you won't get any unexpected surprises later.  I am a huge fan of talking with neighbors....neighbors are a great source of information on a home.  :-)  Please remember that you are not just buying the home, you are buying the neighborhood.  One of the questions I always ask my clients is if they have thought about the area they want to move to?  Have they looked into schools, if that is important.  Have they considered locations regarding work, or family/friends?  I encourage my clients to drive around, and check out the neighborhoods they're interested in.  Drive by the homes you are interested in seeing, look at the neighbors, yards, parks, cars, etc...  check out those things that are important to you.  Vancouver doesn't really have a 'good side', or 'bad side'...Clark county has a lot of 'pocket neighborhoods'.  In a two mile radius you can have million dollar homes, new developments, 'sketchy' neighborhoods, and established 'homey' neighborhoods.  Clark County has something for everyone!   What are you looking for in a home/neighborhood?  What are your top 3 things you want (not counting price)?  As a realtor we can not 'steer' you towards, or away, from any neighborhood.  Our job is to help you find the best home we can, in your price range, that fits what you want.  As an agent, I will help you get all the information I can, or direct you to places that can help you get that information.  For example....census.gov is an excellent site to check out neighborhoods, and schools.  Check it out!  
  So...buyers due diligence....talk to neighbors, walk around the home, and neighborhood... and write down a list of questions.  Ask your inspector about these questions to check out.  Ask your real estate agent to help you find out some answers to these questions, or if they can't find the answers, help you find some places where you can do some research or ask questions.  Your Realtor is here to help you!  Remember that your Realtor works FOR you.   Make sure you know what you are getting into....and any questions?  ASK!  ...and keep asking until you get answers!   As always, if you have any questions, please call or email me...I am always here to help.  :-)  Remember...I am a real estate broker, and I look forward to helping you on your home buying adventure...and assisting you to get those keys.  :-D  Whether you are buying, or selling your home, my goal is to be the real estate broker you think of.  I really want to help you with your first time, and every time.  I believe that real estate is about relationships.....and no...that is not a shameless plug!  LOL   I hope this helps you this week!  Please, if you have any questions, please feel free to call, email, text, or even facebook me anytime.  I am always here to help!  
Information is power, and I hope that I am help you!  Good luck, and as always...May the odds be ever in your favor out there....  If you are looking for a real estate agent, I would love to be able to help you.  
I hope that explains this a bit, but if you have any questions, or comments please call or email me anytime!  Please remember that while I mean these emails/blogs to be helpful, and educational, I am still hoping that you will call, or email me.  I would love to help you with your home buying, or home selling adventure!  :-)
   As always....this is just a quick overview.... again...and I can't say this enough...please remember that your agent is NOT a salesperson, and should not be acting like one.  Real Estate is not really about houses, it is about relationships.  Your agent, and your lender work for YOU.  You drive the bus...we are merely GPS to help you get to your goals.  Like the classes, this weekly blog email is to help you with your home adventure.  The goal is to be informative and non-promotional.  :-)  We are, however, hoping you will call and want us to help with your adventure.  
If you have any questions about this, or something you have heard...or if you would like me to help you with your home adventure, please call, email,  text, or facebook me anytime.  I am, as always, happy to help! Thank you again for your business and your referrals!!  ...and thank you for referring these classes to your friends, family, and co-workers.   ....disclaimer...if you have already purchased a home, or would no longer like to receive these emails, please let me know and I will be happy to remove you from any further mailings...   Upcoming Topics:What happens AFTER the home inspection?
What do I need to buy a home,
What if I don't have a Down Payment?
Pre-Approvals...what, why... and the importance of getting one
Debt to Income Ratios....What is this?
Last Week:  Home Inspections & seller disclosure
Have a great day, and I will talk to you soon,
