I just found some Hazbin Hotel leaks, pre-being pick up by A24 and, do you know we could have had an episode where Charlie meets all the Deadly Sins? We were absolutely robbed of a pretty good filler episodes before the big finale with heaven.

Here's link to the leaks: https://imgur.com/a/nCorcZq

In case the link doesn't work, you can also look at this tumblr post: https://www.tumblr.com/hellaverse-critical-confessions/727383242254204928/hello-the-pre-a24-leaks-anon-again-heres-link?source=share

I really hope they use some of this old concepts on the next season cause they seem quite funny and interesting. Those ideas could help flush the characters out a bit more and the worldbuilding. What do you think?

Me writing notes while reading the leaks:

OOOH HOO WE GOT SOME WONDERFUL CHARACTER INSIGHTS! Especially with Husk!

“Angel and Charlie drag Husk out to a carnival show to show him the not-so-sleazy side of life. This proves difficult with Husk being raised to know nothing but crime and no experience with innocent fun.”

Husk has no experience with innocent fun. He only knows the sleazy side of life T.T Also he has mob connections 👀That is good to know. I find that so, so interesting. It explains it grim outlook on life. Why he's hardly every smiling or having fun. I think one of the first times we actually see him smile is after fighting those shark demons with Angel Dust in "Masquerade."

Now that I'm thinking about it, he smiles a lot more after that. Or, at least from what I remember. I might need to rewatch the show (for the dozenth time, LMAO). But, that kind also goes to show how much this guy needs friends. Good relationships. Connections outside of crime, which is all he's known all his life.

I WANT HUSK TO HAVE PURE, DUMB FUN AND TO LAUGH AND SMILE AND IM SOBBING JUST THINKING ABOUT IT

Also love delving more into Vaggie too. How she's incredible responsible, but controlling. After reading through a few of the episode description about her, my personal headcanon/take is that she still has a bit of that "angels are superior" mindset in the way that when she challenges Maxine, she's quickly reminded of her own limits when she's defeated "very easily." It's like what Carmilla was saying in the show. The angels are arrogant in their fighting. They leave themselves open, they're brash, and uncoordinated because they're not used to fighting demons who can actually fight back.

As far as we've seen, all of their victims are regular demons. None of the Overlords. Well, except Carmilla that one time, and she'd taken down the Exorcists with relative ease because she knows how to fight, and she's powerful. Given that this is the first time an Exorcist has been killed, and the first time we hear about an Overlord being attacked during the Extermination, I assume not a lot of Exorcists come face to face with the Overlords.

So, this kind of brash arrogance still lingering in Vaggie, who see's a demon talking down to her and automatically challenges them to a fight, only to lose immediately. Then her falling back into her insecurities that if she's not able to protect/fight for something/someone, than she's useless (which is ANOTHER thing she's learned from her time as an Exorcist angel--if she's unable to fight for the cause, what use does she have?). It's like this double-edged sword, and I'm rahhhhhh I'm gnawing on it.

ALSO ALSO, getting not only one annual event held in Hell, but TWO! "Hells Weapons Exo," (which I like to think Vox co-hosts with Carmilla, as she is a weapons manufacturer, and Vox is the guy to go to if you're looking to sell/buy something. Also, Vox HAS to have a showmanship side of him. Like, a legitimate showy, entertainer side--which I also like to think is what brought him and Alastor together before their, uh, falling out.)

Their second event being "Challenge Day" where lower tiered demons can challenge higher tiered demons for control over souls? I interpreted this in two ways, 1) challenging a higher tiered demon for the souls they already own, or 2) challenging the person who owns your soul as a way to get it back - both of which I really like. It actually fits really well with some of the world-building I've been doing for the last few days, so I am eating it up.

ALSO THE FACT THAT THERE'S A ROYAL BALL HELD AFTER "CHALLENGE DAY." My RadioApple brain LATCHED onto that so quickly. Imagine Lucifer taking Alastor to the royal ball as his date T.T I wanna see them all dressed up fancy, and I want them to dance, and dsofslknjljblkjbj FUUUUUUCK

Thank you SO Much for sending me this! I am soaking up these lore pieces like a sponge.

It also mentions Angel and Charlie taking Husk to a carnival show, which makes me wonder if there are places like carnivals open in Pentagram City, or if it's similar to the traveling circus thing Blitz grew up in. Like, do hellborn demons who doing travelling circus/carnivals just go through all the rings, one-by-one, including the Pride Ring? That way the Sinners get to get in on it too? AH! I just love thinking about it.

Thank you thank you I am feasting so much right now.

(THIS ALSO MAKES ME SO UPSET ABOUT STUDIOS LIMITING SERIES DOWN TO 8-10 EPISODES A SEASON, WE COULD'VE GOTTEN SO MUCH CONTENT AND WORLD BUILDING IF THEY'D GIVEN VIVZIE AND HER TEAM A PROPER SEASON TO BUILD IT ALL UP AND GRRRRRRRR)

Oh, also, I just realized I didn't answer your original question about the Sins, GOD I wish we got that. I want to see Charlie interacting with all the Sins so badly. Though, I suppose with Amazon not really owning Hazbin Hotel, where all the Sin's have been showing up, I wonder if they'd be able to do an episode like at all.

I don't know. Things to think about.

But to sum up! Thank you so much for this! I know this answer kind of went on long LOL, but you have given me so much brain food and I am eternally grateful 🙏

#gnawing on this #eating it #ingesting it #injecting it directly into my veins #AH I WANT A FULL SEASON #GIMME 26 FULL EPISODES SO WE CAN GET PROPER WORLD BUILDING AND RELATIONSHIP GROWTH BETWEEN THE CHARACTERS #I want ALL the filler #All of it #Where's my beach episode???#I want the carnival #I want the Hell specific holidays and events #I want to no so much more about how Pentagram City works and the Overlords reltationship with the demon population and the souls they own #AMAZONG STOP BEING CHEAP LITTLE SHITS AND GIVE US A PROPER SEASON GRAAAAAAHHHHH #hazbin hotel #asks #anonymous #anon

Just wanted to tell you that you're an absolute doll, you've made the writeblr community an even more wonderful place since you got here, and you are loved and appreciated. This is your opportunity to (should you so desire) ramble about anything that's on your mind, WIP-related or otherwise. 💕

🥹🥹🥹 Thank you!!! Honestly, I was so shocked and happy to see this in my inbox. The only anons I've gotten previously have been chain letters and hate mail, and so my heart actually SANK when I saw this was an anon. But I don't think this is a chain letter and it's definitely not hate mail, so you absolutely made my day/week/month!

I think I started this blog in March, which makes it over six months now. And it's hard to imagine my life without it. The funny thing is (and I think I've mentioned this before), the week I joined, trying to innocently make friends by joining in some event focused on showcasing our WIPs that purported to be open to anyone, and I had the pleasure of being "greeted" by a couple of "hosts" who hadn't read my work, didn't understand the first thing about it, and took it upon themselves to try to "call me out" for something that I hadn't even done. I was so upset that I was this close to shutting down my account because I thought I wasn't welcome here and it would just get me more of the same.

But I stayed, and I'm so glad I did because I understand now that was an anomaly and simply massively bad luck to encounter that. 99% of my other interactions with people here have been positive, and the support I've found for both my work and myself has been beyond my wildest dreams.

Writing is not easy. This is hard, hard work we do. We, especially those of us who post our work publicly, are (metaphorically) slicing out large chunks of our hearts and souls and presenting them on a platter for people to evaluate and judge. Sometimes it feels like more than just our work. It feels like ourselves. And sometimes I get insecure and anxious. "Oh no, do people like such-and-such person better than me? Is their work better than mine? Is everyone going to abandon me to sit at a different lunch table and whisper and laugh and pass nasty notes about me behind my back?"

Middle school fucked me up good.🤣

I have a very strong hunch that I"m not the only one who deals with these types of feelings sometimes. Initially, I wasn't even going to talk about this, but then I was like, well, it might help someone.

Of course, it gets worse when your WIP is being difficult, too. Well, I sometimes think, this isn't working. Might as well take my toys, shut down my blog, abandon my work, and go home, simply in the interest of self-preservation. (I'm NOT doing this; I don't want anyone to worry!)

But I know that this urge is irrational, as are my fears. And that nothing I do -- especially not sitting and worrying and imagining ridiculous, catastrophic scenarios -- is going to have any effect on the situation, whatever it is. I can't make anyone like me. But what I can do is make sure that I send positivity into the world instead of negativity, and eventually, somehow, the universe will even out, maybe, kind of.

Anyway, all of this is a roundabout way of saying that I know yesterday was technically Worldbuilding Wednesday, and I wanted to send out asks, but then I realized, you know? I don't even really like worldbuilding all that much. 🤣 There are other aspects of writing that interest me much more.

And, to me, the most positive thing I can get is a personalized ask about my WIP. It makes me feel seen, acknowledged, loved, and that my work matters. I don't know, but I can only assume that other people feel the same way. So I sent some.

For those whose WIPs I'm not as familiar with yet, I combed through their blog for info about them, and that took some extra time, which meant I wasn't able to send out as many as I wanted. But that's okay because I'll send out more soon.

Anyway, I'm not sure what the ultimate point is to any of this, but that's what's on my mind. Thank you, anon. You're a doll, too. 💕

Do you write / have an A03? Also, how did you feel about the finale for the show, and do you think we'll get any animated Owl House content in the future? Finally, why do you like The Owl House so much?

Nope, I'm not a writer unfortunately. That's not to say it'll never happen, but I don't have anything written or in the works at the moment. Thank you for your interest, though!

I personally really disliked the finale if I'm being honest. It was definitely my least favourite episode and kind of retroactively ruined the show for me a bit. If someone wants me to elaborate I can, but I won't go into more detail than that for now as it would be a very long rant lol. Nothing but respect for the Owl House crew of course; I know they put a lot of effort into it.

As for the potential for new animated content, I could not say. I couldn't even speculate as we really don't know anything. That will pretty much all be up to Disney and whether they think it worth their money. If we ever did get new content, it would probably be a young Eda spinoff since it seems that's what Dana wanted to do. That wouldn't be of particular interest to me, but I guess I would watch it in hopes for some more content regarding Darius. A lot of people have also wondered about a Wittebane spinoff, and before the finale came out, this was the spinoff I was most in support of and would've paid basically anything to see. But considering how much I did not like the writing of the Wittebanes in the finale and what Dana has shared of their story in Posthoots, I've decided I actually do not want them to elaborate any more on that story and I would actually prefer there to not be a canon account of what happened lmao.

I know this would not happen, but if they were to make more Owl House content, I would personally love just to see more content of the Hexsquad's time in the Human Realm. Give me some cute slice of life content with some character studies! Show me how the kids adjusted to being there and how their friendships deepened during that time! It wouldn't even have to be a full TV series; they could just post some shorts on YouTube or something if that would be more profitable for them. Disney if you're listening feel free to steal this idea please

Why I like this show so much is a hard question to give an answer to; I love it for so many different reasons! But the main reason has to be the characters. In my opinion, The Owl House is at its strongest when it takes the time to really focus in on a character's motivations and arc, as well as their relationships with other characters, above other aspects like the overarching plot, worldbuilding, etc. as I feel these are its weaker aspects. Characters who stand out in particular to me in terms of their strong writing are Luz, Hunter, and Belos. But as I said really any moment dedicated to exploring character development and interactions tends to be really well executed in this show.

Another aspect I love is of course the representation. I get a little choked up when I think about how the kids who watched this series are going to grow up having seen gay people completely normalized onscreen, and how lifechanging that would've been for me when I was a kid. Also I feel like we as a fandom do not talk nearly enough about its depictions of mental health, and especially its depictions of a panic attack and a real breathing technique you can use in that situation! I know I for one have made good use of that technique, and I've heard other people online mention that they've used it too or even that it's helped their kids and I just :') :') :') thank you Dana

And of course I couldn't answer this without highlighting my favourite episode, Hollow Mind. I was a fan of the series before it aired, but this is the episode that fully activated my obsession that has endured for over a year now. 10/10 writing, storyboarding, dialogue, voice acting, art, animation, music, everything. This is the episode that also fully introduced into the story the Wittebane brothers and the Grimwalker plotline, which anyone who spends any time on this blog can see live rent free in my brain at pretty much all times :)

Hey, I've been following you for while now, and I've noticed that you are really good at being critical of the things you love, and I just wanna ask, how? This may not make sense, but whenever I love something I loathe to look at the bad sides of it, and I don't know to overcome this. I suspect it's because of the people around me(online spaces,, mostly) who take criticism way too far, and if something has bad stuff in it, they automatically think you're a bad person, if that makes sense?

Idk, I just wanna to like something while acknowledging the bad things, or could've-been-improved things about it lol

Ok, first of all, I want to let you know that being vocally critical about the things you love is not necessary.

What I mean by that is, you do not have to justify why you love a thing, no matter how 'problematic' it is, with 'i know it's problematic, but' or any variant thereof. You can just say 'I like this thing' and leave it at that, or reblog fandom posts, or whatever. Shipping and other forms of fandom engagement are not activism, and there's really no need to self-flagellate over your love of something that has issues, because everything has issues (especially if you dig hard enough), and no one else is entitled to that energy from you. It takes work to dig deep into a thing, especially if it's to critically analyze it, and not everyone feels the need or desire to do that work, and that's ok.

That said, you also shouldn't pretend that reasonable criticisms of the thing you love don't exist. As an example, if you love Kataang, you don't have to say 'i know the EIP kiss was problematic, but I still love their relationship and ship them together'. (Although if you do want to talk about the issues that exist in their canon development, while still loving them as a couple, that is also valid!) However, you absolutely shouldn't say 'I think it's totally fine that Aang kissed Katara without her consent and actually that's a healthy and romantic moment in their relationship' or 'it's fine that Aang never apologized because kissing her is what made Katara realize she liked him'. (Both of which being actual takes I've seen in my fandom excursions.) You can simply choose to enjoy the good parts of their relationship, reblog fics and art and gifsets and metas/headcanons you like, etc. Some people simply don't have the energy or even desire to do deep dives into fandoms for any reason, and this kind of passive engagement with a fandom is perfectly ok.

As for me, personally, I think it's because I just... have lots of words, and thoughts, all the time, about everything I consume. There are often things I notice--either at the time, or in hindsight when I go back and reread or rewatch something (see: how much more I loathe Xander Harris every time I watch btvs)--that I would've done differently or I think should have been changed, or that may sour certain aspects of the work for me, even if I still enjoy the whole. I love atla, but I also see the flaws in the worldbuilding and writing, and will talk about those because it often coincides with my other interests--like zutara, and how I think the story could have played out if that were the endgame rather than what canon actually gave us.

For a bit of a more controversial example--I still love Harry Potter. I don't engage with it as a fandom nearly as much as I used to--I'll reblog the occasional post, but otherwise it simply isn't an active interest of mine. But I know that the books themselves are full of issues, and I'd never begrudge anyone their dislike/hatred of the series given the author's own bigotry. I also refuse to give JKR a single cent of my money, and as a queer woman I can only hope that some day, when the series finally enters the public domain, the old bat rolls in her grave at the popular reboot featuring trans girl!Harry and her adventures. I completely understand why a lot of the flaws in the books are looked at much more critically now than they used to be, given recent revelations about the author's own beliefs--but the books are still important to me, were a formative influence on my life, and I can't hear so much as a single bar of Hedwig's Theme without wanting to burst into tears.

So, at the end of the day (i guess this would be the TL;DR:) your blog is your own space and it is for whatever thoughts you choose to put out into the blogosphere, whatever those may be. If focusing on the bad parts of something you love is distressing to you, then don't! As long as you know they are there (and don't begrudge other people who may feel differently or more strongly about those flaws than you), that's all that can really be expected--and, again, no one has the right to demand critical energy from you. Tumblr blogs are not hubs of social activism, and everyone has the right to decide what content they wish to create, spread, and consume. People may not want to follow you if you post a lot about something they think is deeply flawed without touching on those flaws, and that is their right, just as it's your right to post whatever you like on your blog. If someone is going to think you're a bad person based on what you do or don't say about fictional people and worlds on your blog, then that probably isn't someone you wanted following you or engaging with your content in the first place.

I kind of rambled a bit, I hope that I answered your question and you find this helpful!

#Anonymous #asked #on being critical of your interests #you can also think critically about things without actually criticizing them at every turn to justify your enjoyment #which is what i think a lot of people miss #kataang salt #only a little but just in case

(This is in response to Qnf-Enjoyer! I can't stop laughing in your post on my screen the emojis are taking up half the screen holy shit. I had issues posting it please tell me if it looks like that for you I kind of hope it is bye. If you don't want it up lmk and I can delete, idk if my wifi is collapsing or if Tumblr really got the last laugh on us gn)

HAPPY LATE BIRTHDAY!!! It's really a late birthday wish now gn but I'm glad you got to spend it with friends! I'm honestly dreading the change from that nice, gentle and easing zero into a more official 1 😍 21 looks like you've gained a lot of experience and now considered an official adult worldwide. I wish you well with the transition all the same . I hope the year brings a lots of fond memories. I also need to say I think it's funny that you're an Aries as a lot of my friends past and current are Aries?? something in the way fr. I don't believe in like horoscope compatibility or anything at all like that but that's kind of funny.

I was truly expecting Moriarty back again as well, for good reason, and honestly immensely disappointed we didn't get him, despite his fleeting presence in the show (being alive that is) he was top tier. Ok re-reading that really brought back my memories of the show what on earth was the thought process because they completely lost their backbone with Marys character development / exploration. The writing was really, really lacking on occasion- maybe not the writing per se but the plot and how linear / seamless it flowed. The way you broke it down on how their marriage was falling apart but oh what's this?? Mary and Sherlocks bffs arc with a steel chair? The easy way out fr and they really sealed off any potential hope of something more arising from it for good. It was anything but satisfying, nobility and shock value aside it felt like an extremely boring conclusion to a character that could've literally broken the mold on shows like this. I had no fucking idea there was proper logic and reasoning behind the tea is gay etc. shirt (I hope your book goes balls to the walls on breaking down eating / food imagery I need to hear about it in respect to this) because that paints a chunk of her video in an entirely different light. That's genuinely interesting and raises good points but it was just used as a device to "prove" the fandom was talking shit. You're so right about Tumblr coming together collectively to draw together theories / conclusions regarding shows etc. and if it's all whittled down to the doings of one singular person it's not entirely fair nor accurate. I really thought she was one of the girls, a tumblrina if you will but she's going out of her way to make the people who were fans at the time look senseless 😭 and profiting 🙁 It literally just gets the more I read. Documenting Tumblr is a hefty challenge especially over such a long period of time, you're bound to miss critical aspects somewhere from lack of memory or simply not knowing about their existence, but outright and knowingly forgoing information?? It's making sense why she went denying others help / statements 🥴 I can see why people were opposing the creation of the video, clearly it was quite lacking in the unbiased information department, just giving an overview- an unbiased rundown would've been an interesting documentary style vid but she seems to have skewed the narrative to suit her. On an absolute side note I've not seen Hannibal but I've really considered starting it for like two years (more like every time someone references it on my dash). Besides the real obvious plot line I know literally nothing about it nor its reception in the public but lmk if you enjoyed it / found it worth! Purr on the hobbit being a little lost in translation of media, I think it might be a complete knock out for me if I were to attempt the books though. Every time I start reading or even glimpsing sideways at a fantasy novel there's just so much worldbuilding down to the slang language they use I lose track so quickly.

3 solid years before returning to a show I don't know if I'm more impressed at your dedication to finishing it or the fact you remembered it existed. I can barely remember the shows I watched last month and if I finished the show then I will be capable of answering nothing about it, it's wiped from memory. Going back to games is way harder too I hope rise of the tomb raider sees you again soon. I actually managed to complete my first game in a while the other day, Corpse Party? Idk if that's a blast from the past for you but I remember watching a lets play of it when I was new to the internet and wanted to play it myself. I was surprised at the scenes I remembered considering it was like a decade ago but it is a horror so maybe that explains it. I will say it wasn't that bad when there were chase scenes the characters moved so slow it was actually funny. I feel like the only habit I can consistently do for a little escapism as a treat in my day to day life is read some random ff on ao3 before I go to sleep. A random fandom, sort by kudos, page 5 onwards and start scrolling, literal gems in there. Currently side eyeing the spn fandom as I've never once read a fic or even watched an episode but there's just so many there's bound to be some good stories. Misha coming out as straight really had some unforeseen side effects, like putting spn into my mind for the first time in a year.

Honestly second season of squid game chances are is only going to leave disappointment in its path here. From the kdramas I've watched, not all but a lot really do just stick to one season and that's it, as much as I can appreciate Netflix trying to shake things up and introduce more long term plans I really think Squid Game was not the one to double down on. We're relating on a lot I'm ngl, the daddy issues too? Can we catch a break 😭 But noted, last episode of Arcane and I'll make sure I don't have any plans to leave my apartment room. You've piqued my interest saying you have a different opinion on said explosion so I'm really looking forward to discussing it! My birthday is actually in June! But I appreciate the kind words a lot ;-; We watched the bo burnham special back near when it came out (kind of) but my birthday is maybe approaching quick? so Bo Burnham (common gnf blog enjoyer, he'll be reading our back and forths no doubt) if you've got plans for another release with love please direct it towards summer so I can recreate my newfound tradition.

Ok next long weekend I get I'll try for a Jujutsu Kaisen binge because the thought of a proper dark arc coming soon sounds like it's worth the anticipation. You've really hit the nail on the head with demon slayer, The main character is just very morally straight and narrow from ep 1 and you're not super attached to him for it. Zenitsu and Inosuke are who I think of first when I talk about the show. Definitely more background from either of their side would be nice. I did hear that it was done, back before I started watching it a friend at the time showed my a major spoiler so I'm going to assume it was set for near completion at that point as well, like a year and a half ago. It is surprising that it's so short but like you said if they had managed to flesh out Tanjiro a bit more they could've milked this cash cow for years. It does make my heart happy that there's a decent Zenitsu fight on the way, something to look forward to and I'll force myself into watching for it. I hope they pour the budget on him, nothing worse than an anime series flopping on scenes you were anticipating for years (haikyuu s4 I hate to throw you under the bus). I too am a big fan of seeing my faves go through their hurt to comfort route, it makes it all the more satisfyingly when things come back around. We need that here, we need hurt increased and I would also like an enforced found family dynamic because what they've got going on is too casual, too purely circumstantial (I don't even remember the plot enough to tell you why they're with each other but it wasn't selling me at the time anyway). They're one level above the avengers tower, it's not nearly enough. Ok the fact I know the exact radio show with Zenitsus va calling the coins, eyes closed, purely based on sound is so funny that was so surprising. Also I had completely forgot Zenitsu was voicing Dabi holy fuck the duality of these guys. My biggest surprise in connecting the seiyuu dots as it were, and this isn't even surprising tbh but I just wasn't expecting the voice of Dazai from Stray Dogs to be the same man to voice fucking Light from Death Note. This shocked me I was floored with this info, I think its because I've seen the va with the cast on stray dogs interacting and he is such a fun, extroverted personality I just would not have pegged this man to play such a sinister role 15 years prior. Either way, love that man (I don't know anything about him) and good for him what a resume. I too am a big Sokka enjoyer so I love that we've gone for the siblings. I loved the fact that he was not deterred one bit by miss katara strongest water bender you could meet in your life, toph metal bender herself, and the literal avatar. He would just roll up with his boomerang and I loved him for it. Yet, then all of a sudden in s3 they randomly gave him an episode where he was doubting himself, his abilities, why he was even there. Like fair and expected if this happened in s1 / early s2 when things were starting to take shape, but it felt like such an after thought of his character, a grab at a spare scene to flesh out an ep. To me it was nothing like his personality, especially after a year of travelling and proving yourself useful time and time and time again, not once hinting at this doubt even on the smallest of scales. Maybe I missed his feelings previously if expressed but it felt half assed to me. The found family ATLA gave us is on the tallest tip of the pyramid for sure, they went through fights and disagreements of all sorts it felt really worked at, it was so good. I haven't seen Voltron, well I have seen the very first episode that I watched 5 years ago but I didn't stick to it? Although kind of wouldn't be opposed to trying it, I keep thinking of this one video I saw where this guy was swearing his life down that the first two seasons of the show were a gift from the heavens and I haven't been able to shake his opinion. I'm sorry to hear that the final season ever was that bad, it's giving GoT disappointment, it's such a shit feeling seeing your favorites get left with mediocrity.

I'll look into Devilman Crybaby, it's been sitting in my Netflix list for probably two years so it might be approaching its time. I'm interested to see what type of ending it has, I am with you undoubtedly that DN was deserving of something better for L and Light, fair enough if the series ended with them but the fact that it didn't. Just give him the win at that point I don't know what to tell ya but I've lost interest like he's just lost his life. I say that but I still enjoyed the show a lot a lot but improvements would go a long way, I'd love to see a remake / spin-off in the future with an alternate ending. Oh really? I didn't know people weren't keen on the animating style in ToG but I really loved it. I haven't read the webtoon yet either despite swearing I would after finishing s1 yet here we are. The betrayal scene took me by such surprise I was expecting Rachel to be not how Bam saw her but I was not expecting that. The Promised Neverland was one of my all time faves when I first saw S1! Lotta lotta love for Ray I'll be honest, he played the waiting game and was suffering mentally for it but he played his cards so right. S2 if you haven't seen I'll confirm for you that it sucked, it was very sub par in comparison to s1 and on checking up the fandom spaces after it looked like the scenes were really rushed as if to fit it into the 12 ep space. Very lacking, I'm sure reading the manga would fulfill some disappointment but again when something you've waited for isn't animated well it's so annoying.

You've really put into words how Dream makes you feel as a viewer, just untrustworthy (and honestly disbelieving) of what he's choosing to tell the viewers because it is ultimately for a gain on his end but it's done in a more under the table, pulling the puppet strings way. Like oh I'll leak the knf kiss and other random pieces of info on my private podcast, people talk about it on twitter and cite my merch discord stream, it gains the reputation for spilling secrets there, merch sales spike because people don't want to miss it (lot of fomo in the twt fandom space), people want to be a part of the discord general chat, have a chance to talk with him one on one, etc. I understand it's working well so stopping isn't going to be considered an option from his pov but it's the fact the secrets he leaks aren't even surrounding him. Fair enough if he was just using his own instances or experiences to get people coming in but using your friends business fr? tbh to me he does seem to see Gnf + Sapnap as expendables that he created in the fucking dream cinematic universe so telling their info doesn't seem to bother him (literally not once ever). I absolutely feel where you're coming from in seeing traits in his friendships that would not be flying if it was happening between you and a friend. Hearing something you told a friend in confidence come back around is shit enough nevermind it coming back 1,000 fold. Not even just the gossip but as you said his live behavior half the time is pulling the piss. I vividly remember Dream once on a basketball stream saying he probably has as much if not more coding experience that he could put on his c.v. than George and he didn't even do the degree. Like what the fuck jerk yourself off harder. Good for you, you've coded projects, you've built a resume, but why are you making it a competition? (and making George's college experience sound worthless 😍) Learn what it's like to not feel the need to constantly put yourself on a pedestal above your friends please it's for world peace. Wouldn't do well to forget him and Tommy's back and forth in the replies of a Philza tweet either because that was so telling on his character but I also love how Philza came to Tommy's defense, good for you king. Definitely can appreciate Georges approach to content creation being (what seems to be) a more amplified version of the parts of himself he wants to showcase. As you said, it's not a massive mask (that was unintentional) or a newly crafted persona, it's just him, just some guy. His backstory or his personal experiences aren't his content, so as you said feels a bit weird getting that layer, it's like been given a piece of a jigsaw for a puzzle that isn't yours. Exactly as you said as well with Bad and Q having a mutual ground of being open on stream, like it goes both ways with them no bother. George on the other hand has yet to go out of his way, at least to my knowledge, to tell something private to thousands about Dreams personal life. If it's not replicated behavior on your friends part then it looks like a pretty good indicator to simply stop.

Ok kind of fun I also used to watch Foolishes streams but bare in mind this was literally like last year so I think I'm out of the loop by a long shot. He was a reliable watch for sure and the builds were definitely what I was watching, I think Kinoko at the time. Don't know how well I'd take to his Gordon Ramsey or valorant plays in the bg as noise tbh but if I'm stuck for something I'll give him a peak. I'll be honest the co-op games are honestly stressful, even playing with my friends one of them takes it serious while my other friend and I like to play anything but the characters intended roles, so it's a bit of an interesting dynamic. It's fun but intimidating starting out, there are times when I was the enemy teams best player and by God was I reminded of it in chat. Playing with enough mutuals so that you have the majority is the way to go. I wish that I could play Genshin soo bad! My laptop is quite a cheap one so Genshin would play at 1 frame a minute it was atrocious I didn't even get halfway in the intro scene. I then used an old iPhone to download it but old is the word I think a 5 se? and it worked but the phone charges once every two months so I threw in the towel. I got about as far as George did in his first sponsored stream. However, I am thinking in investing in a new phone (my current one is incapable of running it) so I'll definitely get it when I upgrade (I was heavily considering an iPhone purchase but they scam their customers so hard with no headphone jack? no wall plug? no money left after purchase? so the decision process will be a time consuming one). Do you play on pc/phone? I'm assuming PC is fun af tbh but I've seen enough tiktoks of people wishing at concerts for the good luck to know its at least playable ahjbdh. Although this won't mean much to me right now who do you main on Genshin? I don't know anyone apart from Paimon and they're not even playable 😭 I also sadly haven't tried BOTW but I'm aiming to soon, it's one of the best games I hear on the switch and honestly the bar is 6 feet under but it does look good.

Working from home is so sexy I literally love it, the pjamma pants set up, work laptop in bed, and a cup of tea in hand, it's ideal. Honestly I find the hardest part of my job (my job mainly being a mix between computer work & running tests) is actually talking to my coworkers 😭 All who I spend most time with are genuinely lovely people but I find it hard to open up as is so when they talk so freely about their personal lives I'll smile and nod, and those are my sole contributions. Luckily(? Maybe not) the topic these days has surrounded the stock market, which I've only ever looked at to see the GameStop graph like a year and a half ago so I'm a little out of depth bye. To be fair I don't think I'll be correlating on many topics with them but I'm at the very least learning a lot at the lunch table. I think my course has it so we'll at a maximum have a choice between two lecturers to work under. One of them would definitely be strict on the deadlines but he's so extroverted and eccentric? Like he's 5'5/5'6 and yet the most intimidating man I've ever met?? But maybe that's what I need, a short king capable of making me fear for my happiness walking into class. For real don't worry about rambling in any direction, I enjoy reading your thoughts always pop off fr and I'm the exact same in favoring typing over actually articulating my thoughts in real time. I'm glad we have a so many joint interests!! I hope to start one of your anime recs this weekend as I've got one episode left of breaking bad 🤒 it only took 6 months but we made it and it was some roller-coaster of a show. I really enjoyed it, I think my favorite ;part was s2 middle to the end because it just stepped up in how deep it was getting. Not like s1 wasn't telling but fuck me s2 just hit way fucking harder. I'm also finally going to watch bbqnf play with Dean something idk who he is but he played Hank, idk if you've seen breaking bad? Either way I hope the upload was fun, it feels very strange to think Quackity secured such a collaboration but also very sweet that he pulled George in after they bonded over breaking bad for so long. Anyway I hope you have a good weekend legend and that you also maintain motivation throughout, we got MCC as a little booster to look forward to at the very least 🥳

(now that I've seen the part again where you say you created your qnf enjoyer blog to send this I'm beginning to think it's been more than 2 weeks since you sent this 😭 the universe can try all it wants to put our chats on hold but ultimately we'll always win. Update as of posting ur ask: we did not win)
