Next big grail/hunt I wanna do for my transformers collection when money is better is getting ahold of some of these lads:
Tumblr media
✨️Bearbrick Transformers✨️
Like, I just think it's neat that there is an art toy line that did a Transformers collab and went to the extra step of having the figures actually transform, that's rad as Hell
And it just makes for a really weird altmode that I want to add to my weird altmode collection. Kind of reminds me of some of the Microman toys and other toylines where the conceit is that the characters are disguised as/pretending to BE toys. Tbh I'd read an entire fanfic series about Megatron and Optimus and the gang hanging out in disguise as high-end art toys in some techbro's villa and transforming at night to fight for control of some Cybertronian tech that he's stumbled across, etc.
I dunno, I just think it's neat ✨️

tagged by @vintar for “ten songs you’re vibing to right now”!
ok, i gotta tell you just how EXCITED i was when i got tagged in this, because
i saw it earlier this week, just as me and a friend were talking about our misspent youths, which for both of us involved an awful lot of “stockpiling dope midi file versions of various anime theme songs,” right
and i was like “bro i still have my WHOLE COLLECTION,” and we spent a VERY pleasant evening nostalgia’ing over the tracks i found, and now here i am, days later, sharing ten of my dopest midi files with you as well (& all my fine fine followers ofc)
here’s the dropbox link!  a guide:
abyss.mid: god wasn’t this song so sick when it was in dance dance revolution
galaxia.mid: i have NO IDEA what song is from.  hmu if you recognize it?  lil’ kid me was impressed with its majestic scope, its sick reverb, its really fun ancient-temple-y orchestration, and, ok yeah adult me agrees this one rules
giveareason.mid: i have never watched slayers in my life but i have listened to the midi of its theme song approximately one billion times
lastempl.mid: i think this is the last temple theme of one of the earlier zelda games?  i like how AGGRESSIVE it is, just, RIGHT out of the gate it’s loud and in your face
nightwait.mid: *old man voice* back in my day we didn’t have enough space to download em pee threes.  we had to collect midi files of cool pop songs.  such as jennifer lopez’s classic “waiting for tonight”
SD3_-_Innocent_Sea.mid: it’s a tune from Seiken Densetsu 3, a game soundtrack i find overall tragically underrated.  (the whole series, really; Secret of Mana has some absolute bangers too!)  anyway “Innocent Sea” and its companion “Innocent Water” have fucked me up for years; ask me to play the latter on the piano at a nerd convention sometime
sealcrazy.mid: there was this one wildlife artist who sold his art on his lovingly handcrafted website and he had a different midi file for each page.  like each piece of art for sale had its own page.  anyway this was my introduction to Seal, though i didn't realize it until i heard it on the radio when i was 25 and was like HOLY SHIT IT'S THE LIVE VERSION OF THAT MIDI FILE
song1.mid: i think this one might be from Ultima?  like the original Ultima online?  but i’m really not sure; i found it on a Geocities website for this horse roleplaying game called Black & Blue where this song played in the background during its cool Javascript intro page, where they told the story of The Falling-Out Between The Two Brothers That Has Now Cleaved Our Realm Into Two, and like, text would fade in & out in sync with the music?  such a sick effect.  loved it
song2.mid: this played once you entered the main part of the site.  might be another Ultima song.  who fuckin knows
SongoftheWolf.mid: some of you didn’t listen to an absolutely disgusting number of world music albums + Enya during your formative years and it shows
anyway, i will spin the wheel since i’m honestly looking for some new music (i have to drive a bunch during the next month, UGH): @radicarian @ourlightsinvain @jaggedwolf @soanvalcke @departo @nightpool @cyansighs @tototavros  @cyanoscarlet & anyone else who wants to join!  (did i mention. i have to drive a lot. please share some music with me. save me from listening to Bad Religion’s The Gray Grace so many times it causes an integer overflow in the fabric of the universe and sends us all straight to hell)

Okay but imagine- geralt (consensually) using axii on jaskier (maybe to calm him down? Take away the pain? Idk it’s up to you)
i would first like to apologize for how long this sat in my inbox. ye ole non-smutty fics and i had a bit of a rough patch there for a bit but i think we're past it now? anyway, have some of this:
Warnings: exhaustion descriptions, tfw you walk/stand too long and everything hurts, a tiny bit of fluff, axii isn't necessarily discussed but its used to help
_______________
Traveling with Geralt was the highlight of Jaskier’s life, but adjusting to the road every spring always knocked him on his ass. No matter how much walking and stair climbing and even jogging Jaskier attempted to keep up over the winter, he was always left staggering through the first weeks of travel.
He made sure to do absolutely everything he needed to, including pee, before so much as sitting down whenever they made camp. If he didn’t, the tasks simply wouldn’t get done. Geralt was too stubborn and Jaskier wouldn’t be able to move.
His muscles would be jelly by the time they stopped, his legs moving out of sheer habit more than any actual instruction from his brain or willpower. His bad knee would ache and if he stepped wrong he’d get a shooting pain up the front. Even worse, his ankles screamed at him as he stepped over rocks and sloshed through mud. Scratch that, his hips were the worst, a near-cramping tightness in them that had him almost hunching over by the end of the day. Sometimes he couldn't even tell if it was from the pain or the muscles no longer doing their part to support him. And when he stopped moving it all seized up.
That particular year, winter had been brutal in Oxenfurt. Snow had made it impossible to keep up his usual walking routine and he’d gone and twisted an ankle rather dramatically while attempting to show off for another instructor. It shouldn’t have surprised him that his body wasn’t taking kindly to this sort of abuse, but it made him angry nonetheless.
And fuck did it hurt.
It had never hurt this bad. He didn’t even bother setting out his bedroll, he simply laid down next to the fire Geralt was building. Even the forest floor felt like sweet relief so long as he stayed horizontal. He didn’t notice, or care, what Geralt was doing, just laid there measuring his breath and longing for a soak in a hot bath.
Geralt seemed to be angling for more misery, jarring the bard back into awareness by slapping two cloths full of melting snow over his knees.
“Fuck you,” he groaned, not even able to sit up and remove the homemade torture devices his best friend had dropped on him.
“Later. Don’t move these,” Geralt grumbled.
Jaskier snorted as he let his eyes close again, “Couldn’t if I wanted to.”
With an amused ‘hm’ Geralt was up and milling around the camp. Ten-ish minutes later he came back to Jaskier’s side to move the melting snow to his ankles, then to his back a little later. Jaskier barely noticed him removing the now rather small bits of snow from his body. He did notice Geralt wringing the cloths out, letting the freezing water dribble all over his face and neck. He flailed a bit, and let out a yell, but he really couldn’t move much. Not quickly anyway.
“Hm,” Geralt chuckled, crouched down next to him, “Can you roll over?”
Jaskier thought about trying, then thought about how his back screamed just from staying still, then shook his head.
Again, Geralt was gone and shuffling about. This time Jaskier paid attention though. Geralt pulled both bedrolls close to the fire, and, after a little resituating, rolled Jaskier into one. He then dragged him to the other side of the fire, with colorful protests from the bard. When he was laid down on a large patch of thick moss, Jaskier complained far less. Everything still ached, but at least he was a touch more comfortable.
When Geralt shimmied in the bedroll with him and pressed his chest firmly to Jaskier’s back, the bard nearly cried.
“I’m sorry,” Geralt whispered in his ear, on hand working at the disgustingly tight muscles in his hip, “I pushed you too far today. I don’t like when you cry.”
“I just missed you, darling,” Jaskier chuckled, doing his best not to sniffle, “It’s not that ba-”
“I can smell how much it hurts Jask.”
A couple tears finally fell onto Geralt’s arm that Jaskier was using as a pillow as he lost the performative energy that was keeping him together.
“I just want to sleep,” he breathed, not trusting his voice not to break.
Geralt nodded and lifted his hand to form axii, “Then sleep without pain.”
The last thing Jaskier remembered before the fuzzy haze swept over his body was Geralt placing a kiss on his temple. He would wonder if it had been a dream for decades.

⌠ DAISY EDGAR-JONES, 20, CIS FEMALE, SHE/HER ⌡ welcome back to gallagher academy, CECILIA CASIRAGHI! according to their records, they’re a FIRST year, specializing in SEDUCTION & FLIRTATION + LINGUISTICS, CULTURE & ASSIMILATION; and they DID NOT go to a spy prep high school. when i see them walking around in the halls, i usually see a flash of (pink satin sheets, the warm glow of a sunrise, the first pour of a bottle of red wine, unflinching doe eyes). when it’s the (capricorn)’s birthday on 1/13/01, they always request CANNOLIS from the school’s chefs. looks like they’re well on their way to graduation. ⌿ deanna, 25, she/her, est ⍀

RESIDENCE:  London, England

Allegra Casiraghi: Mother, currently in jail
Federico Casiraghi:  Father, currently in jail
Salvatore Casiraghi: Eldest brother
Niccolo Casiraghi: Second eldest brother
Anya Casiraghi: Elder sister
ABOUT:
Born Cecilia Anastasia Casiraghi, the baby of the Casiraghi family. You know them and you hate them, real asshat parents who value money and prestige over actually being nice to their kids. It's hard not to grow up despising your parents in that setting, though Cecilia would be lying if she said she didn't enjoy the being rich part of it all.  Still, it wasn't worth the pressure and scrutiny she received from her parents.
She grew up in a giant castle in Italy where she liked to pretend she was a princess trapped in the highest tower waiting to be rescued. Cecilia watched her older siblings seem so put together and polished, exactly what their parents wanted them to be, and couldn't help but feel isolated from the rest of her family  ( though her older brother Nico was her fave ) .   The older she got, the longer she waited for things to snap into place, only to be met with disappointment.
She got more rebellious as she got older, which didn't bode well in the Casiraghi household. Her father tried to break her spirit, which in turn only made her angier, causing her to run away when she was sixteen.  She didn't leave so much of a note to her family, but she knew if they wanted to find her, they'd have the resources to do so.  They didn't.
She struggled once moving to London, because a rich girl isn't exactly great at not being rich, but she had been saving up stolen money from her parents for a few months before leaving, so she had enough to find herself a place to live while she worked odd jobs here and there. She wanted to focus on art, her passion, the one thing her family had always told her she was good at  ( though they also said it wasn't practical ) . But, surprise surprise, art is NOT practical, and nobody wanted to buy paintings from an actual nobody.   
The story goes that she struggled for about a year before making connections with a local art gallery to hold a week-long exhibit of her work. There she made a few sales on her art, though the most noteworthy one had been selling a self-portrait to a wealthy older man who took a liking to Cecilia and decided to fund her art career, and her lifestyle. From then on she lived the glamorous city life she had been destined for, only realizing recently that art and partying can only get her so far. She had begun to miss the world she had been born into, even if she didn't miss the family that came with it.  So Celia reached out to a few old contacts, and was able to secure herself a spot at Gallagher Academy in the fall. Despite the drama of her parents being arrested for tax evasion and fraud, she found that the name Casiraghi still holds some weight in the spy world. 
WARNING: TOP SECRET INFORMATION
The reality of the situation is that even with the money Celia had stolen from her parents, her life was nowhere close to the one she used to live, and being poor kind of got old. Plus she still had this BURNING anger towards her parents, partly for letting her leave so easily. 
She had been living on her own for almost a year, and what little money she had left was slowly depleting. She had been one level above rock bottom when a faculty member of Caledonia Institute found her. Though she had no interest in returning to the spy world, they had fed into her ego that her being a part of their team was IMPERATIVE, and in return they would give her back the life she once had, while making her parents suffer.  How could she say no to that?
At only seventeen she was one of the youngest to enroll in Caledonia, and she became a professional spy in the process.  She'd have to sit through two years of training and schooling before getting an active mission, but training at Caledonia -- while strict -- was unlike the harsh treatments she was used to from training with her family. With a new outlook on the spy world, Cecilia began to enjoy it once more, and it helped that she was good at it. 
Mr. Stewart of Caledonia had promised her that her parents would pay for their sins, and in the spring he had upheld his end of the bargain.  Her parents were caught and tried for tax evasion and fraud, and she heard through the grapevine that they'll be going to jail for a long time. Though she wasn't sure what this means for her siblings, Celia was just glad karma finally bit them in the ass.
Conveniently after they're arrested, Mr. Stewart gave Cecilia an assignment for the fall :   everyone knows about Cole Conner's Gallagher Academy assignment from last fall, and how he's garnered less-than-stellar results. So she’s been enrolled as an incoming first year, returning to the spy world with a story weaved of her glamorous life in London, ready to pay off her debts to Caledonia without hesitation.  
PERSONALITY:
Celia is a total chameleon, able to morph her image and personality when needed in social situations.  It's how she makes herself easily likable and gets people to let her in easily, though her doe eyes certainly don't hurt.  She makes it easy for people to get wrapped up in her storytelling and the lies she spins for the sake of getting on other's good sides. Not only is she good at it, but she gets off on the thrill of it, because it's fun pretending to be someone you're not !   Whatever you want her to be, she can be it.
Underneath the surface, Cecilia is truly a spoiled brat who likes getting her way and winning, and once in a while parts of that haughtiness will break through the cracks of her facade. Caledonia had worked hard to take the rebel out of the girl, but parts of it still appear on occasion, though never against her agency. 
Above everything, she's trying not to make waves while in Gallagher, to go by undetected, so the easiest way to describe her would be Nice.  ( This might change while I play her so we’ll see welp. )
TL;DR:  She's Nico's younger sister !  But ran away from her family when she was sixteen because she hates them, and at her lowest point Caledonia Institute swooped in and saved her   ( and also got her parents arrested and made them lose their money whomp whomp )  and now she's a double agent working for them. She’s looking to make friends with everyone who’s anyone at Gallagher. Two-faced bitch but ya gotta love her ?  Or don't, you probably shouldn't.
WANTED CONNECTIONS:
She’s going to be meticulously crafting her own inner circle of friends for her own enjoyment at Gallagher, a mix of people from influential families and those who are deemed “popular” or worth having around, please send headshots and a resume if ur interested xoxo
Family friends of the Casiraghi family, who she hasn’t seen in at least three years. 
Other students who trained with her siblings in the super super exclusive training program her parents ran. 
Those she's crossed paths with living in London for a year: friends, flings, fellow artists, coworkers at her crappy jobs, etc.
Fellow first years she can glom onto for automatic friendships right off the bat, regardless of who they are
Legacy family students she can cozy up to for the sake of her job
Someone who is reluctant to trust her, despite her attempts to befriend them/get on their good side
Someone with a crush on her that can sorta see how malleable her personality and is like? But show me the real you?
A no-strings relationship that’s purely physical 
Someone she’s stringing along for the sake of getting close and getting information out of them
An upperclassman mentor figure to show her the ropes of Gallagher and help her acclimate 
A ride or die that she feels a kinship with, where they click enough that she can be more like herself   ( aka a little bitchy )
Someone with a really optimistic/romantic outlook on life that truly tests Cecilia’s efforts to match their enthusiasm 
Fellow artists she can spend her free time painting in the gardens with and help her get back into it
Fellow LCA + S&F majors who she’ll either have in her classes or that can give her some class pointers or offer their old notes to her
Someone she got drunk with and maybe let something slip that she shouldn’t have and now it’s awk
Someone weak-willed that she can easily take advantage of/manipulate into doing things for her
Fellow smokers even though I don’t condone the habit!
I have some things on her pinterest page here for inspo, also this tag

⌠ VIRGINIA GARDNER, 21, CISFEMALE, SHE+HER ⌡ welcome to gallagher academy, ALLISON “ALLIE” BECKETT! originally hailing from POINTSETT, ARKANSAS they were exposed to too much during the protest, and the academy is now in charge of their safe care. when i see them walking around in the halls, i usually see a flash of ( warm chamomile tea on a winter morning, a collection of polaroids stacked in shoeboxes under your bed, bare feet running through an open field, laughter until your sides hurt. ) when it’s the ( virgo ) ’s birthday on 8/28/98, on the bad nights they request their HAWAIIAN PIZZA from the school’s chefs. looks like they’re safe in witness protection. ⌿ kati, 23, est, she/her ⍀
hi i’m sorry her bio is long and in 2nd person but at least u have lots of time to read it while she’s on lockdown ??
you come into this world silent. from the moment you are born, jeremy, your twin brother, does all the screaming for you. both blonde-haired with blue eyes, things will come easy to you – but even easier for him, because red-faced and screaming, he knows how to make his mark. katherine and richard beckett are thrilled to welcome two perfectly happy and healthy babies. and as your brother screams beside you, develops colic and obstinance, you are deemed the favorite – he is deemed the problem. people underestimate how important those early years are.
it’s your first day of kindergarten and you bury yourself in your mother’s skirt, scared. jeremy runs in the room with confidence, introducing himself to the other kids and settling in the corner near the firetrucks. but you cry so much that your mother takes you home and when you finally come back a week later, all the children stare at you, like you’re going to explode at any moment. but children are resilient and within time, you make friends and you excitedly tell your mother about each new day in the car.
you go to church with your family on sunday mornings and your parents dress you up like a doll. you love the pink ribbons though, the way your parents dress you up and introduce them to all your friends. your brother is a lost cause and gets to play his gameboy on the pews but you are your parents pride and joy and you are paraded around – people love a little blonde girl and you smile widely at everyone you meet. it’s all a show though, you know that as you listen to your parents from the top of the stairs at night, yelling. they’re not happy. you clutch the railing, listening in, and you fight back the tears that threaten to stream down your face.
on your tenth birthday, your parents throw the two of you an elaborate party and you have a bouncy castle and everyone brings swimsuits for the pool. your parents can’t stop smiling. it isn’t until late that night after all the streamers have been taken out with the trash that you hear them yelling again. you listen in from the corner of the kitchen. you hear a glass shatter and you race upstairs to your brother. “i think they’re going to divorce,” you tell him. he laughs. “they’ll never do that, no matter what. we’re catholic, allie.” he flashes you a wry smile and you find yourself wondering what to believe.
your best days are spent at pointsett park. your parents often take you there after church, on sundays, and you and jeremy run around through the forests pretending to be wood nymphs with sticks in your hair. as you get older, the magic starts to fade and you feel less like a fairy princess and more like a moody teenager, but you and jeremy fill a shoebox full of things from your childhood and bury it, deep in the park, by the ugly tree. “if i were a tree, i’d be this one,” he jokes, as if all the girls at pointsett middle haven’t just sent him candy grams. “shut up,” you say, shoving him, “or put you in the ground instead of this shoebox.” he grins wryly at that. “clever.” you always were the clever one.
it’s the first day of high school and you feel like an outsider, everyone’s getting their first kisses and jumping in cars and you have to be home in time for curfew. you have friends from church, but with every glass your mother breaks, you wonder how much you really fit in with them at all. in an attempt to try something new, you go to cheerleading tryouts, but of course, you don’t make the team. at least you won’t have to beg your dad to let you wear the uniform. you trudge home and expect to be greeted by yells - you’ve come home late - but your parents are in the kitchen, berating your brother. he smells like marijuana. he gives you a lazy wink from the kitchen as you sneak upstairs.
a boy asks you on a date, a real one, your first real date ! you’re only a sophomore and wade matthews is a senior and you’re really nervous when he picks you up in his car. he tries to kiss you throughout the whole movie but you’re nervous and really, you want to watch the movie. when he pulls the car in an overhang near the mountains and kisses you, it’s rough and unwanted and he goes in with tongue. it’s hardly the enchanting first kiss you imagined and you pull back. is that what kissing’s like? really? he goes in again, saying he’s really turned on, asking if you want to have sex. you say no, but he tries to kiss you again. you push him back so hard his head hits the dashboard. “take me home,” you say. and he does. he obviously doesn’t call.
you have a few girls over for a sleepover and you’re sitting around in your pjs watching grease and passing around thermoses filled with rosé. you pass it on to the girl beside you without taking a sip. you start to raise the volume on the tv as you hear your parents fighting downstairs ( you think your mom might be sleeping with her doctor, which is all kinds of weird. )  when the thermos comes back to you, you take a swig.
you’re sitting in the basement with jeremy, head in your hands. “that’s it, i’m never drinking again.” he laughs. “allie, it’s your first hangover. you’re gonna be okay. and you’re probably going to drink again. it’s okay.” you shake your head, “this is exactly why it’s wrong, i’m so stupid.” your brother sits on the bed beside you, wraps his arm around you. “you’re allowed to be a stupid teenager, you know? fuck up a bit? mom and dad are…they’re crazy. i love ‘em, but they’re so obsessed with consequences, with image. if you don’t quit overthinking shit, you’re gonna wind up just like them.”
“COMING SOON: POINTSETT MALL” the poster is covered in icons, like a dunkin’ donuts and a macy’s. lots of people in the town talk about how excited they are, but they don’t talk about the fact that they’re tearing up pointsett park to build it, the park that holds all your best memories, all the ways you and jeremy would disappear into the woods growing up, skipping rocks in the pond and catching glimpses of magic creatures in the trees ( creatures that mostly turned out to be squirrels, ) where you buried your time capsule. you and jeremy sneak into the park late at night to dig it up, ducking under the caution tape. while you stand there digging, you get the idea: “we have to save the park!” you say, and it starts out as bake sales, town meetings, the twins who think they’re going to save a couple trees from corporate capitalism. but you make a video of the two of you, the history of playing in the park, and you talk about your dreams and memories. that’s what goes viral, and that’s what garners attention. suddenly, hundreds of people are showing up at your town hall – not because they love the park, but because they used to love their own special place, the one that’s now a walmart, a target, a gas station.
they build the strip mall. of course they do, because in the end it comes down to money. but the social media campaign that spirals, everyone sharing their own special places and what became of them, has made an impact. your project – Save Pointsett Park – is enough to get both you and your brother the interest of several prestigious schools. you have nearly the same SAT scores, even though you took two prep classes and studied for weeks and he nearly forgot about the test entirely, walked in with his shoes untied and a blunt in his shirtpocket. in the end, you both choose georgetown together, because despite your differences, you always do everything together.
you opt for a degree in global health because it combines your interests – biology and helping people, and you have dreams of working in healthcare and bringing it to parts of the world that don’t have it. you might have something of a complex, maybe something to prove. you’ve always had a diminished interest in boys, opting to put your studies first, until you meet him – richard hudson, the sort of boy you daydream about even though you stopped believing in fairy tales a long time ago. he’s the second boy to kiss you and it feels so much different than wade matthew’s sweaty car at the drive in. he’s gentle and sweet, and he makes you feel uncharacteristically special – you wish you’d had the patience to wait for a first kiss like that. jeremy only teases you a little bit when you toss your purity ring – and he never even owned one.
you’re comfortable with him in a way you’ve never been with anyone else, and his attention has you falling hard and fast. you’re obnoxiously perfect at times, all over each other and always laughing, but like most fairy tales, things end. you notice the way he looks at her, the way he talks about her, and the way his eyes linger. you’re reminded of your parents, stuck in some unhappy farce when they’d really rather be anywhere else, with anyone else. you don’t want to be like them – you don’t want to trap him like that. so, you step back where you’re supposed to, even though it hurts, and your saving grace is jeremy, who holds you through the night through your first heartbreak. you experience all your sadness together.
until you don’t. here is the first sadness you’ve ever had to process without jeremy by your side, and it happens so fast. one second, he’s alive, and the next he’s blown into nonexistence, leaving a gaping ache in your chest that doesn’t seem to sooth itself. until now, your life has always been cushy, perfect, and smooth sailing. now, you toss and turn with nightmares, a ghost of yourself, trying to understand why you’re the one who gets to survive and why you matter at all. you’ve never existed in this world without him, and you thought you’d never have to.
you don’t sleep well now. you wander the halls at night, you act a little more recklessly. after all, jeremy broke rules all the time. maybe it’s your turn. 
HEADCANONS.
sweet and pampered, maybe, but she’s still from arkansas. allie is extremely capable with a firearm and has pretty keen survival skills. she’s never actually shot anything, but she’s gone to the shooting range with her dad enough times, and she has been on frequent fishing trips. her family used to go camping quite a bit.
really a terrible driver. she’s really easily distracted and cannot focus, she’s a bit of a disaster behind the wheel, but it’s almost comical – as long as you’re not in the passenger seat.
is bisexual, although she’s never had the chance to explore that. growing up in a strictly catholic household and then spending most of her college years dating a boy, she’s never really thought about. finding girls pretty and thinking about them like that is what everyone does, right?
bakes when she’s stressed or upset. she’s got treats for everyone right now.
currently plagued by night terrors and is having a lot of trouble sleeping, so find her staying up until all hours or wandering campus with some dark circles under her eyes. she’s trying to cope, but it isn’t coming easily right now. it’s pretty disorienting, and anyone who knows her will notice the difference in disposition.
has traveled a lot for mission and/or service trips. uganda is where she usually goes, she’s been spending summers volunteering at the same women’s clinic for the past three years.
pineapple pizza advocate and WILL fight you on that 
WANTED CONNECTIONS.
someone at gallagher she has a crush on. Basically, someone at gallagher who has really caught her eye and she’s stuck daydreaming about. The purpose of this is because she’ll be super nosy about them, trying to learn more about them, and that’s probably going to make this character nervous.
a dare/challenge??? This is so cheesy of me, but I’d love a plot where a Gallagher student has a dare or something to hook up with one of the WP kids and they make Allie into their sort of conquest. Things probably won’t go as planned for them.
brother’s ex/best friend. I might submit this to the main, but I’d love a WP character who was allie’s best friend & was dating her brother. All this grief and sadness and not knowing who to comfort who, but also getting over the loss together.
crushing??? I feel like all the WP kids are pretty paired off, but...it might be fun to have a WP character that’s had a crush on Allie all those years she’s been obsessing over her ex...you know, for pining & angst
any brother connections?? Idk, I’d love WP kids to also be connected to her brother, who was also in the club, so we can probably stem something spicy off of that too. Maybe they were his best friend, or more interestingly, maybe they fucking hated him.
someone from the past. someone at gallagher who knows her prior whether from school, volunteering, etc.she travels a lot and her parents have too, so there’s some flexibility, but maybe someone she knows or used to be close to and they grew apart, but they have the chance to rekindle things now. she probably really wants to.
a close friend. they have been at gallagher for a hot minute now, and I’d love for her to have bonded with a few of the people there. from my understanding, shit’s going to hit the fan, so a few close relationships would be spicy. people at gallagher who were actually really there for her about her brother, probably could relate to losing a loved one, and probably opened up to her. people at gallagher to worry about her safety now. 
hook up? she’s really going through it, and although hookups aren’t typical, ithink it wouldn’t be weird for her to look for a warm body or seek comfort in the first person to smile at her at gallagher...not to mention she’s rooming with her ex and his crush, so a distraction is super welcome. i would also imagine that it’s against the rules for a gallagher student to hook up with a WP kid, so. the drama !
^ on that same vein, maybe a repeated hookup.
a girl to help her realize her sexuality.
someone totally lying to her. a gallagher student practicing their skills and getting to know allie using a totally fake backstory and identity, blatantly lying to her about things. and she’s naively playing into it? and maybe your character is realizing they’re actually fond of her and like hanging out with her, but they’ve lied about legit everything lol.
someone she’s suspicious of. there’s something off about this person, and allie is determined to find out what it is about them that just doesn’t fit.
someone to help her solve her problems by denial. someone who wants to break allie out of her shell and believes that the best way to get over it is to have a good time ! someone to be a bit of a bad influence on her, basically, get her partying, introduce her to some unhealthy coping mechanisms.
someone who recognizes how sad she is? aka someone who’s been in that same position and can really tell she’s faking it every time she says she’s “fine.” this person probably has a sort of fondness for her and keeps reaching out when she pushes away because they know what it’s like.

kpop albums for sale!
hey so i’m a broke gal, and i know most of us in this world are also broke but i have a bunch of kpop albums i... don’t really want/need anymore, and i’m just gonna slap ‘em up here for people to see.
some general rules i’m gonna go by:
you name the price, so long as it’s not like $5 for an album.
i can sell anywhere, not just the US.
however, i will ask you to pay shipping, whether you’re in the US or not. i can’t afford to pay for shipping, so count that in for the cost of the album.
obviously all of this stuff can be talked about privately and negotiated. if you want pictures, let me know.
i will accept payments via paypal.
just dm me on this account (softmingis) to talk about stuff
check under the cut for what albums i have and what comes with each one!
ps even if you aren’t looking to buy, help a gal out by reblogging to get word out. i’m getting desperate.
boyfriend: obsession (jeongmin photocard) used, but in very good condition. been flipped through once.
bts: wings - but only w, i, and g (only one jimin photocard, first come first serve) used, but in very good condition. been flipped through (each) once.
bts: young forever - day version (jungkook photocard) used, in good condition. flipped through a few times, a little scuff. cds are perfectly fine.
bts: summer package - dubai used, good condition. most everything is still there, i had the 2 pictures hanging on my wall at one point. the booklet, the cd, the tattoo stickers, and the pictures are in the package. cannot be shipped media mail: too big & heavy.
got7: flight log turbulence - jb version (bambam photocard) perfect condition. i was disappointed that i got jb and not mark/yugyeom so i opened it to find out what photocard and never opened again. outside packaging has bent corners.
niel: oniely (niel photocard) - signed perfect condition. opened once. not much else to say. it is signed by niel, so i’m expecting at least a lil higher price.
niel: spring love - oniely repackaged (niel photocard) perfect condition. i literally don’t think it was ever like... flipped through? not signed though.
niel: love affair (niel photocard) essentially perfect condition. when bought in the store, there was already very minor corner damage. never been flipped through though.
seventeen: boysbe (no photocard) used, good condition. i don’t have the group cards anymore, they got lost when i moved. everything else is intact though. i think i flipped through the booklet once.
teen top: no. 1 - repackage special edition perfect condition. a dvd/concert collection thing? comes with a photobook, a notebook with photos in the front, a showcase dvd, a making dvd, and a concert dvd. i’m expecting a higher amount for this, and it cannot be shipped media mail -- it’s way too big & heavy.
teen top: exito - 20s love one very good condition. comes with a wink book (whatever that means). there are just some minor scuffs since it’s black packaging, but the pictures + album itself are perfect.  *see below for photocard info
teen top: exito - 20s love two signed good condition. signed by all of the members. the little bends on the packaging probably just came from the members when they were passing it down the line. again, pictures are perfect. *see below for photocard info
*the teen top albums listed above come with either a ricky or chunji photocard. just specify which one you want. first come first serve.
teen top: natural born (no photocard) again, perfect condition. flipped through once. nothing else to say about that.
miscellaneous stuff: kyungsoo (exo) peppero day 20th anniversary photocard, bts japanese run poster, jungkook (bts) hyyh 1 photocard
and not that anyone will be interested, but s**ngr*’s let’s talk about love album is up for grabs. i mean, i don’t want it. it’s in great condition, but yeah. for obvious reasons, i want nothing to do with it anymore. alternatively, if someone wants to pay me $50 i’ll burn it in my fireplace on my porch and record it. i’d rather sell it to someone who actually wants it rather than burn it for “protest” since it’s already been bought, but if someone wants to pay for a protest to happen, why not mans?
anyway, that’s what i’ve got. hmu if you’re interested, and we can talk about things. thank you for reading, reblogging, all that good stuff. you’re all loved and remember to have a good day/night.

Running today on approximately 4 hours of sleep so that’s fun.
This is a follow up to my...possibly worrisome post from last night.
I’m still not doing great but...as usual letting shit out of my head and into the wide world of the interwebz has made things start running smoothly again.
Well, more or less.
Still not great money wise (again, paypal.me/dredshirtroberts to help if you can, but i know most of you reading these are likely either already in tight spots yourself or have already assisted as best you can and I just...thank you for supporting me emotionally through all this. it does mean a lot to me) but like...
I had 3 phone interviews today, all of them were successful, so that’s nice.
I was going to speak to my leasing company to see what can be done to help with the situation today, but for whatever reason the only office i know of was locked at 10a today so i’m gonna have to try calling them tomorrow morning (would have called earlier but my phone service was cut off, so that was exciting).
On my way back from that I had the brilliant idea to double check the mail sitting in my front seat of my car, which I had been fairly certain was all junk but for some reason brain said “look at it, do it, maybe find a treasure.”
Brain knows what treasure is to be found, apparently, because hidden in there was a card from my grandparents that held a very nice present that I got about half a month ago but hadn’t opened or looked at. It was enough to get me out of overdrawn account status and pay the past due amount on my phone, as well as completely fill my tank of gas which hasn’t happened in weeks and was very satisfying. I also acquired a food because, well, i’m in a position where i don’t have a lot and i was just so overwhelmed with how relieved I was that i figured i could spare the 12 bucks and get a big meal from burger king.
That’s about all I can do for now. Next big thing I need to do outside of the rent debacle is refill my meds. Went ahead and ordered the refill on the major one, so that’s a thing I can have hopefully soon.
I don’t remember how much it is generally, so I’m really hoping i can spare the cash for it. I’m waiting to get my paypal cash debit card so I can access shit direct from paypal without transferring to my account in the future just in case I need backup money and my bank account goes red again. Hoping it doesn’t but like...that’s a thing I have to worry about.
My aunt and uncle are visiting me for dinner so I get more food! Also they have offered to help me as best they can with my financial situation while I figure out how to be a functioning human being. I’m not expecting a lot, tbh, because I don’t deserve a lot from anyone, but I am hoping I can at least get 1 month of rent paid and a plan for the rest of it so I don’t get kicked out.
I mentioned I had several successful phone interviews. One was for a part time sales thing for selling knives to housewives or something. It’s apparently relatively successful so that’s nice. It’s built so similarly to MLM style business structures that I’m a little wary but honestly anything is good. After I go through the training, HMU for kitchen knives or whatever i guess.
I also am being considered for a position at 2 separate retail positions, and I have an in person meeting with a staffing company tomorrow morning to see what they have available for me to do. I’d really really like something relatively low key, weekdays, during normal business hours, but honestly I’ll take anything right now as long as i don’t have to wear slacks. Fuckin’ hate business wear. Just let me wear jeans goddamnit
Anyway...I still need lots of help because all of this is *hopefully* going to help, but I’m in such a fucked state financially that I’m not sure it even fuckign matters tbh.
I’m going to be a little flip about how little everything matters in the world and i apologize if that’s something you don’t want to see. I will do my best to keep my commentary on how bleak my outlook on the world is to tags so it’s easy to avoid. if I need to tag something specific so you can filter it out, lmk and I will do so to the best of my ability but honestly I will not be offended if you need to stop following me for your health because I totally get that.
I just cannot make myself care about shit right now and it’s distressing on some level that i’m vaguely aware of but also...I don’t care lol. because i don’t care about anything. And it’s weird and terrible and awful and Im really hoping option 4 doesn’t come back onto the table because so far I think I’ve gone ahead and stuck it in the oven for now and it’s just gonna sit there and think about itself and i’m going to work on makign sure none of my other pots boil over. This is a weird metaphor.

Hey cool people, it’s Alex here again and I still suck at writing a coherent intro! You may know me from such hits as Park Jihun, the grumpiest old man in Wonyang and Jeon Jaebeom the marshmallow with a face. but I’m popping up to introduce the newest member of my little losers club, Chuanchen. He’s a bartender / sales assistant that was royally screwed over by his business partner and is far too chill considering he’s in such deep financial doo doo. He’s also pretty much a pathological liar, so don’t trust a word he says. Full bio is here, tl;dr under the cut and I’ll make a post when I finish working on his connections page because I’ve decided to scrap it and start again so hopefully tomorrow? Maybe? 
Tumblr media
But for now please come love my new mess. I’m gonna go through everyone elses connections pages over the next few days, but if you want to work something out with him hmu or like this post and I’ll catapult myself at your inbox.
Born in Bangkok, Thailand
Middle child - developed a pretty severe case of middle child sydrome that he never grew out of
Suuuuper close with his grandparents - Spent a lot of time with them, and his grandfather taught him how to play guitar. He doesn’t have much these days, but he still keeps his battered old acoustic around.
Never really happy with his lot in life and used to tell white lies / make up stories to make it seem better to other people
A very, very convincing liar and can be extremely manipulative if he needs to be
Moved to Wonyang to study business at Wonyang University. Lived in the dorms. Kept up the lie that he was this big shot that came from a life of luxury.
Grandparents passed away during his second year and left their grandkids a hefty inheritance. (I’ll probably talk about where they got this kind of money at a later date)
He was distraught for quite a while and the school threatened to kick him out because of his poor attendance. Eventually he returned to his usual self, a social butterfly.
Had no problem splashing the cash on others even if he knew that they were only really there for the money.
After he graduated, he agreed to fund a friends business with what was left of the money. Left most of the leg work to him and took a back seat role.
Returned to Thailand for military service (Shorter than usual since he volunteered and was also a graduate)
Came back to Wonyang to find himself with no business and in a massive amount of debt. His partner goofed in a major way and ran out of funds.
Loans had been taken out in Chuanchen’s name, labourers still haven’t been paid and the bar remains half finished in Downtown Songcheon. They couldn’t find a buyer.
Spent a while living in his van because that’s all he could afford. Now lives in one of he cheapest apartments in Dream Villas. 
Between paying rent and repaying debts he doesn’t always have enough money for meals, so has been known to go without.
Because he’ terrible with money (And too embarrassed to admit that things didn’t work out and he’s struggling.) he still lies about himself and keeps up that facade, spending his funds on the dumbest things just to prove a point.
Personality wise he’s far to relaxed for his own good given how much trouble he’s in. Has the view that the ship will right itself and he doesn’t need to change anything.
Can get along with anyone and adapt to pretty much any situation with relative ease.
More or less a pathological liar and doesn’t see that as a problem. The most likely person in Wonyang t try an convince you that grass is actually purple, not green.
Kind of musical in the free time that he does get, but not in any serous capacity. Still plays guitar, but its pretty much just to himself in his empty apartment.
Has no problem taking advantage of others and their kindness if he needs to. If he finds himself in dire straits he has no problem using you to claw his way out. Kind of silver tongued though, so he’ll do it (Or at least try to) without you even knowing.

INTRODUCING; HAYLEY DAVENPORT
{ cis woman, she/her } did y'all see LILY COLLINS at the farmer’s market earlier? turns out that it wasn’t them at all! it was really HAYLEY DAVENPORT! they’re that 31 year old SALES ASSOCIATE FOR INFINITE BLOOM from down the road. y'know, the GULLIBLE & VULNERABLE one! ‘course, some people say they’re BENEVOLENT & SELFLESS too. must be why they make me think of DOWN BY JASON WALKER. either way, they’re a local around these parts, so that makes ‘em family.
Tumblr media
Age: 31
Gender: Cis woman
Pronouns: she/her
Occupation: Works part-time at Infinite Bloom ( Family owned garden store )
Extras: She is a Wakefield local who went out of town for college and also lived away from town when she was married to her ex. She visited often during that time regardless, and is now back in town permanently since February. Her birthday is 7th September 1989. She studied nutrition and food science and is bisexual. Her daughter, Heather, turned 3 on August 10th 2020. She has no siblings but many cousins. 
{ More about Hayley + her connections under the cut !! }
Biography:
( abortion tw, emotional abuse tw )
[1989] Hayley was born in Wakefield to John & Ruth Davenport on 7th September 1989. They were an older couple who had wanted a child for a long time but were unable to conceive which made Hayley their miracle baby. She was cared for and loved deeply by her parents and her extended family as well.
[2007] Hayley never really made plans to leave the town. She was happy with the comfortable yet simple life they led, loved her family dearly and had intended to stay in Wakefield, study there and help her parents with their shop.
But everything changed when she fell head over heels for Finn (npc) in her high school senior year. Somehow the young naive girl came to believe that he was the one, and her parents were supportive of her when she made the decision to follow him to college to study. It wasn’t too far, she visited very often but it was a change to what she had planned. But her parents were happy to see their girl find love and flourish, and as for Hayley, she somehow believed that she was lucky enough to find her happily ever after so early in life.
[2008] It started a few months after they started college, rumours about Finn which showed that he wasn’t as perfect as he seemed but she chose to ignore it all. She decided to trust him instead of doubting him because of silly rumours. With time passing, it became obvious what he was like but she denied it. And when the truth came to light with proof she couldn’t deny, she fought with him, but forgave him over and over again instead of putting an end to the relationship which was nothing close to the perfect love story she wanted it to be.
[April 2013] It was when she got unexpectedly pregnant a few years later did she see his true shade for the first time. He was furious with her when she said she wanted the baby, and ended up convincing her to get an abortion simply because he wasn’t ready to have a child in his life. She never told her family about that since she knew how close to heart her mother would take it, having been a woman who had prayed for years before she had a kid of her own.
[June 2013] It was a bit of a wake up call for Hayley, and she soon began to realize slowly how the life she lived was never one she had wanted for herself. It was a life which Finn wanted and she had fit herself into it. Finn on realizing that Hayley was having serious doubts about their relationship proposed to her on one of their visits to Wakefield after making a big deal about it to their families, which put Hayley in a tight spot, making her agree simply because she didn’t wish to upset both their families.
[Dec 2013] She did speak to him though, telling him of how she felt and only when he promised that he would be better did she go through with the wedding.
Everything seemed fine for a while but he didn’t really change, doing everything in his power to control as much of her life as he could, something which she taught herself to get used to after a while because she didn’t see another choice.
[October 2016] She got pregnant again, and this time too Finn wasn’t ready for a kid but Hayley was adamant on keeping her.
[August 2017] Heather being born was the first Hayley truly felt happiness again for a long time, and seeing as how Finn never cared for the kid or helped at all, she quit her job to be a stay at home mom which she was mocked for by her husband.
[December 2018] It was when her daughter was a little over a year did she find out that Finn was cheating on her again, it didn’t really surprise her though.
[Feb 2020] It took her a fair few months to do what had to be done but she finally found the courage to leave him, moving back to Wakefield six months ago and filing for a divorce.
Her parents still are under the impression that Finn is a good man and she didn’t want to break it to them how awful he had always been to her and break their hearts, instead simply finding a place of her own for her and her daughter so that she didn’t have to deal with them giving her advice every other day about making up with Finn for the sake of Heather.
She is currently helping her parents with their shop and fighting Finn for sole custody of Heather, the man wanting custody of her simply to gain some control over Hayley again.
Connections:
Family: John Davenport (father, npc), Ruth Davenport (Mother, npc), Heather Davenport (Daughter aged 3, npc), Samatha Davenport & her brothers (Cousins)
Ex-husband: Finn Walker (npc)
Best friends: Atticus Mercer, Adrianna Knox, Julie Pardo
Babysitters: Avery Cohen, open
[open] Off the top of my head I need a lawyer helping her with the divorce & child custody, school & college friends, friends through family, other parents to have play dates with, friends who share her love for cooking and  baking, a couple people shes dated or slept with, colleagues and customers at Infinite Bloom, neighbours etc. As for negative connections, it can be her husband’s friends or exes, perhaps a rival at school or college, someone her parents or cousins do not get along with etc. She’s a very lovely person, very friendly and helpful, overly so. She will get along with almost anyone. But she also tends to make terrible mistakes, self-sabotage a lot when she’s in her lowest points which could potentially affect people badly. Please feel free to hmu with any ideas you have to, always happy to plot!

I'm think I'm looking for something like FetLife Munches but without the Fetlife... Where/how do I find people to just talk to about sex and sex relationships with in person?
I'm a woman and not looking to meet with people for hookups.
I really want to find a way to meet open-minded and sex-positive people that aren't just looking for partners or limited to ONE topic. Prior to moving to Conservative Town USA, I was able to meet up at outdoor public spaces and have fascinating adult conversations with people that were non-judgmental and who had incredible stories to share. I miss this dearly.
I [F] divorced a few years ago and have been enjoying the freedom from my deadbedroom ever since (I should be spokesperson for divorce in that subreddit lol). Exploring my sexuality and learning about sex, really for the first time in my life, has been incredible. Every topic of sex is fascinating and I'm looking at it all with eyes wide open; even if it's not for me, I still enjoy hearing and learning. I really want to continue absorbing and learning from - and with - real people. 1000000% not looking for partners. When I say learning with real people, I want to continue to hear and have discussions with others about their experiences, thoughts, and opinions on all things sex. Real conversations with real people.
My problem is that I've moved to a place where I just can't seem to find anyone to talk with in groups, let alone in person without being preyed upon.
What I'm looking for
Like FetLife, but not limited to BDSM. I am aware that FetLife has more to offer but where I am and where I was, BDSM-only were 99.9% of the active users. Also, see below for more on why FetLife is NOT what I am looking for.
A group that meets in public places or in homes (post COVID) where I can see the attendees beforehand and feel safe. I'm a strong woman but I'm also petite and will be going at this alone most of the time. Safety is my largest concern.
A place that isn't about hookups. See below for my mistakes with these.
A group that isn't just about one topic (polyamory, BDSM, Swinger, etc.).
A group that incorporates everyone from virgins to swingers to dominatrices. I know, "Fetlife"...... but where I'm at, this is NOT Fetlife.
Maybe just a way to find friends that are more open. So far, everyone I've met in my new town are more comfortable talking about who cheated on who than they are talking about bras that fit. God forbid I discuss the amazing orgasm that I had by myself or my thoughts on hairy vs. shaved chests.
Here's what I've tried
Fetlife Munches and FetLife, in general. See below for more as FL deserves it's own section.
Swinger groups. Admittedly, this was dumb of me. I wanted to learn and hear about other's experiences while they just wanted me to be their unicorn. Conversations were sales pitches. I was a "unicorn" for a bit and since I'm not looking to be one now, I was just wasting everyone's time.
Polyamory groups. I learned a lot but mostly that I was not just another unicorn but in addition to being just a warm body to have sex with, they wanted me to be into their 'triad' in an emotional way. I learned, at least through the multiple polyamory groups and workshops I attended, is that polyamory is not for me. I'm not anti-polyamory (surprisingly) and I'm still am interested in hearing stories but maybe not in the settings where I'm potentially seen as prey or a trophy.
Reddit r4r - I made a couple of very detailed r4r posts stating that I was looking for groups to meet with. I received nothing but "HMU Kik 1BigDick4U" type of messages in return.
Meetup. In my old city this was a good resource for sex-positive events, however, where I am now, Meetup is dead.
Fetlife I really liked the idea of Fetlife! And I still do! But after two years in two different states, I'm done. In both places it was just very, very, ...... um, dark. The Munches were friendly but I didn't walk away from any of them ever wanting to go back, although I did, many times. I'm stubborn like that. This may sound pretentious of me but hearing a person who does not exude anything sexual talk about sex had the opposite affect of what I was looking for. I wasted so much time with FetLife that it's left me a bitter. LOL. I'm not convinced that FetLifers are not in some cult either. LOL! Everyone who enjoys it seems to think it's the best, while those who have tried it and walked away from it, receive nothing but "You have to try it again!" messages in return.

Which oc is the most athletic? Which sports do they like? Which oc is a picky eater? Which one of them rushes to the mall for the Bath & Body Works Sale? Tell me all about ur ocs pls
(mmmm im sorry i didn’t answer these right away, i was feeling worse than i thought, but i’m better now so i’ll give as much info as i can here!!)
kara is definitely the most athletic; she’s a personal trainer after all! she loves climbing, probably because she can use that as a human and as a bear.... 
well... as for picky eating, teddy’s actually pretty picky when it comes to the people he eats as a wendigo. y’know. people eating and such. human food? he’s a vacuum, he’ll eat it all. actual people as sustenance? it’s weird but they have to give him a reason to eat them. he doesn’t pick people at random, they have to either a) display terrible behavior b) bother his friends c) do something specific that teddy doesn’t like in that moment of time. 
sometimes he sets up a situation where he picks someone and talks to them long enough to reveal something that’ll give him the green light to eat em. i mean, that’s what he did with o’malley, but he ended up... not finding out anything that would make him wanna do that... and became o’malley’s closest and most loyal friend. that backfired a bit but he’s not complainin
buuuuut if we’re actually talking about picky eating as in normal food, tau’s a picky eater, he’s the type of person that has specific orders for every place he goes to
tau also is into bath and body works, he looooves smelling nice. body sprays? lotions?? soap??? he is there already with ten different coupons (also this made me want to go to bath and body works again bc i miss buying their ridiculously super scented body lotions)
i am always up for talkin about ocs so like,,,, if you or anyone else ever wants to ask about them, hmu!! and it goes both ways too im down for listening to you talk about ur ocs too bc they’re great 
and uhh... i talk about my ocs a whole lot more on my twitter, if anyone ever wants to take a peak or somethin, the threads make it easier to talk a whole lot about it without smashing all the info in a read more or in a huge long post https://twitter.com/cyberjellies

Bug Bounty Hunter Ran ISP Doxing Service
A Connecticut man who’s earned bug bounty rewards and public recognition from top telecom companies for finding and reporting security holes in their Web sites secretly operated a service that leveraged these same flaws to sell their customers’ personal data, KrebsOnSecurity has learned.
In May 2018, ZDNet ran a story about the discovery of a glaring vulnerability in the Web site for wireless provider T-Mobile that let anyone look up customer home addresses and account PINs. The story noted that T-Mobile disabled the feature in early April after being alerted by a 22-year-old “security researcher” named Ryan Stevenson, and that the mobile giant had awarded Stevenson $1,000 for reporting the discovery under its bug bounty program.
The Twitter account @phobia, a.k.a. Ryan Stevenson. The term “plug” referenced next to his Twitch profile name is hacker slang for employees at mobile phone stores who can be tricked or bribed into helping with SIM swap attacks.
Likewise, AT&T has recognized Stevenson for reporting security holes in its services. AT&T’s bug bounty site lets contributors share a social media account or Web address where they can be contacted, and in Stevenson’s case he gave the now-defunct Twitter handle “@Phoobia.”
Stevenson’s Linkedin profile — named “Phobias” — says he specializes in finding exploits in numerous Web sites, including hotmail.com, yahoo.com, aol.com, paypal.com and ebay.com. Under the “contact info” tab of Stevenson’s profile it lists the youtube.com account of “Ryan” and the Facebook account “Phobia” (also now deleted).
Coincidentally, I came across multiple variations on this Phobia nickname as I was researching a story published this week on the epidemic of fraudulent SIM swaps, a complex form of mobile phone fraud that is being used to steal millions of dollars in cryptocurrencies.
Unauthorized SIM swaps also are often used to hijack so-called “OG” user accounts — usually short usernames on top social network and gaming Web sites that are highly prized by many hackers because they can make the account holder appear to have been a savvy, early adopter of the service before it became popular and before all of the short usernames were taken. Some OG usernames can be sold for thousands of dollars in underground markets.
This week’s SIM swapping story quoted one recent victim who lost $100,000 after his mobile phone number was briefly stolen in a fraudulent SIM swap. The victim said he was told by investigators in Santa Clara, Calif. that the perpetrators of his attack were able to access his T-Mobile account information using a specialized piece of software that gave them backdoor access to T-Mobile’s customer database.
Both the Santa Clara investigators and T-Mobile declined to confirm or deny the existence of this software. But their non-denials prompted me to start looking for it on my own. So naturally I began searching at ogusers-dot-com, a forum dedicated to the hacking, trading and sale of OG accounts. Unsurprisingly, ogusers-dot-net also has traditionally been the main stomping grounds for many individuals involved in SIM swapping attacks.
It didn’t take long to discover an account on ogusers-dot-com named “Ryan,” who for much of 2018 has advertised a number of different “doxing” services — specifically those aimed at finding the personal information of customers at major broadband and telecom companies.
In some of Ryan’s sales threads, fellow forum members refer to him as “Phob” or “Phobs.” In a post on May 27, Ryan says he’s willing to pay or trade for OG accounts under the name “Ryan,” “Ryans”, “RS,” “RMS” or “Stevenson” on any decent sized popular Web site. “hmu [hit me up] in a pm [private message] to talk,” Ryan urged fellow forum members.
The OG User forum account “Ryan” asking fellow members to sell or trade him any major Web site account name that includes the OG username “Ryan” or “Stevenson.”
I found that as late as June 2018 Ryan was offering a service that he claimed was capable of “doxing any usa carrier,” including Verizon, AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, MetroPCS and Boost Mobile.
“All I need is the number,” Ryan said of his customer data lookup service, which he sold for $25 per record. “Payment BTC [bitcoin] only.”
For $25 per record, Ryan offered fellow ogusers members the ability to look up customer records tied to any customer of the major U.S. mobile providers.
Very similar offerings were made by Phobia’s alter ego “AOLer” on the sprawling English language online hacking community Hackforums.
I first encountered Stevenson several years back while trying to work out who was responsible for calling in a phony hostage situation and sending a heavily armed police force to our Northern Virginia home in 2013. In a follow-up to that story, Stevenson admitted that he was responsible for the high-profile hack against Wired reporter Mat Honan, who documented how a hacker named Phobia had deleted his Google account and remotely erased all data from his iPhone, iPad and MacBook.
Going by the nickname “Phobiathegod” at the time, Stevenson was then part of a group of young men who routinely hijacked OG account names on Microsoft’s Xbox gaming platform, often using methods that involved tricking customer service people at the target’s mobile provider into transferring the victim’s calls to a number they controlled.
Fast forward to today, and Phobia’s main Twitter account (pictured at the top of this post) includes the phrase “the plug” next to his profile. In SIM swapping circles, a “plug” is hacker slang for an employee at a mobile phone store who can be bribed, tricked or blackmailed into assisting with an unauthorized SIM swap.
Reached via instant message on LinkedIn, Stevenson acknowledged running the ISP doxing services, but said his account on the OGusers forum was since banned and that hardly anyone took him up on his offer anyway.
“I shouldn’t have made the threads even though no one really asked for anything,” he said. “I’m on the good side. But its almost 2019 and I need to find a new hobby I can’t be bothered to look for breaches/vulns, haven’t got 1 job offer or recommendation yet.”
Asked about “the plug” reference in his Twitter profile, Stevenson suddenly stopped replying. Not long after that, the @Phobia Twitter account was deactivated.
Stevenson denied being involved in SIM swapping attacks, but it is clear Phobia was fairly tight with many people who are or until recently were at the center of this scene. In July 2018, authorities in California arrested 20-year-old Boston resident Joel Ortiz for allegedly conducting dozens of fraudulent SIM swaps and stealing at least $5 million worth of cryptocurrency from victims.
Like Phobia, Ortiz had a presence on OGusers and had acquired some of the most OG social media accounts available, including the Twitter and Instagram account names with the number zero (@0), and the OG Youtube accounts “Joel” and “X”.
On Oct 27, 2017, the Youtube account “Joel” published a 4-minute video of Stevenson dancing to a popular rap song in front of the camera. On July 5, 2018, just days before Ortiz was arrested, the Twitter account “0” gave a shout out to @Phobia on Twitter suggesting Phobia was actually tweeting using Ortiz’s “0” account.
