By far one of my favorite things about the way Disco Elysium handles politics is that Libertarianism is treated as an absolute joke. Like the game is obviously sympathetic towards communists, but there are elements of sympathy towards the moralists and fascists as well. Not sympathy in the sense of “oh can’t we all just get along, we’re all human” BS, but sympathy in the sense that you are able to understand a persons thought process that would lead them to embrace moralism or fascism. Even if that thought process is deeply flawed, and leads to horribly off kilter conclusions, going through the centrist and fash quests gives you meaningful insight into the appeal of those ideologies.

But Ultraliberalism? The game just laughs at you, repeatedly and mercilessly. As it should, you’re a cop so poor a guy you’ve known for one day has to pawn some fancy hubcaps so you can afford rent, yet all you talk about is your grindset. Your hustle, how you’re gonna disrupt the market and groove your way into the lap of luxury. It’s delusion, utter stark raving madness, and characters treat you as such.

Kim is at a loss for words whenever you crank on your libertarian spiel, Evrart calls you a retard, you have to *trick* the mega-rich light bending guy into giving you mercury mining stocks because he’s simply too perplexed by you. Joyce, last of the self identified Ultras, doesn’t take you seriously. Sileng just goes along with it the same way he goes along with any of the other nonsense you can spout, because he’s on his own hustle, and there is no loyalty among charlatans. The only character who is wholeheartedly onboard with the money engineering and the visionary wave making lifestyle is literally named IDIOT DOOM SPIRAL.

But you see, all these things are just incidental, where the game makes it most potent jab at libertarians is when the vision quest stops. Notice I said *stop* not *end*. The communist quest line ends with a Rhetoric check in order to ask The Most Important Question about Communism. The fascist quest has you look yourself in the eye with an Endurance check to see if you can stomach the truth about yourself and your Vöws. The moralist quest ends with a heart wrenching Empathy check as you beg the iron grey and soulless enforcers of the status quo to please god help this district before war breaks out in the streets. There’s real personal stakes for Harry in all these disparate paths he can walk, what does Ultraliberalism get?

You and Kim look at a statue covered in tinsel and disco balls, Kim asks you why you went through with all this, and no matter what response you pick he’s like “Right, yeah, okay. Anyway, let’s finish the case.”

That’s it, no grand moment of pathos, no red Savoir Faire skill check to see if you really are the baddest hustler in the neoliberal hood after all. It’s completely limp, flaccid, lackluster. The game treats all the effort you put into this as exactly what it is: sad, cringe fantasies of a poor old man who’s huffing copium over the embarrassed millionaire mythos.

Disco Elysium doesn’t give libertarianism a poignant, profound conclusion because it’s an ideology undeserving of such treatment. It’s a hyper-capitalist cult mentality of toxic positivity and confirmation bias, a way for desperate people to trick themselves and other chumps into thinking they can bootstrap their way into wealth and prestige. It goes past wishful thinking into pure delirium, the game doesn’t engage with it seriously because it doesn’t have to, the only people who sincerely believe any of its tenants are morons and the clowns who sucker them.

#disco elysium #politics #this one is a tad more mean spirited than the last #I just really hate libertarians they’re so nauseatingly obnoxious #it’s a shame disco came out before NFTs were the latest trend those mooks glommed onto #imagine the kind of jokes we could’ve gotten out of Harry trying to send monkey jpegs over the radiocomputer

NOISETTE THEMED DOODLE DUMP ft. cheesecake and the spouses

copious hazel headcanons under the cut because i can’t help myself

first off: her name is Hazel 👍🏻 ik that’s a common one but it’s literally perfect… canon info to me

her favorite thing to do, besides making experimental food, is actually exercising! she’s an incredibly skilled acrobat and stunt artist, so she needs to be fit for that, but she also just enjoys letting the excess energy out bc she gets really cranky otherwise. she’s toned af and could wipe the floor with you - she doesn’t go around picking fights for no good reason, but if she did… heehee

she has such an unending well of passion for all of her interests that some find her to be too much but she dgaf… she’s unabashedly autistic and does NOT care if you don’t want to hear her infodump about obscure cheeseslime genetics, she will do it anyways

i like to think that, although she is very bubbly, she has an insane morbid streak that catches people off guard. she loves talking about anatomy and gross-out subjects to anyone who can stomach it, and cracks the most fucked up jokes - it’s one of the reasons her and noise get along so well. she is thinking about blood and guts because she thinks it’s interesting!!!! she will give you hyperspecific graphic threats of violence if you make her mad!!! teehee!!

i would put her at like… chaotic neutral but leaning towards good. she has an almost scientific fascination with violence and seeing what kinds of stress a body can take, and doesn’t mind watching shit unfold instead of helping… unless something actually super fucked up is going on (like way past canon typical pizza tower violence), she’s not going to bat for you lol she’s gonna grab a camera and clipboard

her interest in anatomy branches out into a love for biology, medicine and health in general - as much as she loves watching her boyfriend beat the shit out of some chump on live tv, she also loves studying how different creatures work and how to treat injuries. she almost became a doctor! but she didn’t like the rigid schedule and pressure, so she fostered her interest in dance and gymnastics, and went into television as a stunt double instead. that’s actually how she met noise! that’s why they look so much alike - she was told to inquire NTV for a job because of the resemblance. noise thought she was so cool she was asked to be his co-star instead, and they’ve been inseparable ever since.

sometimes she gets tired of the noisette persona, but she does genuinely like theo, so it’s hard. she’s been more busy with this NTV gig (that’s looking more like a full blown career) than she would like, so that’s why she opened her cafe - to do something else for once dammit!! she likes weird shit, food included!!!

i have two shipping scenarios i like, so consider these parallel universes - hazel x vigi, and hazel x vigi x noise

if you don’t like negative takes on the noise relationship i’d recommend skipping to 2 ^_^

1. her relationship with noise deteriorates bc noise can’t accept the fact that hazel doesn’t wanna be noisette all the time! they’re so busy, he barely even makes time for her anymore - he barely even tolerates her! it’s not until vigi comes into the picture that she realizes she doesn’t have to deal w that mess. but it sucks cuz noise isn’t just her bf, but also like!!! a big part of her career!!! and she does genuinely love him but he’s just!!! an uncommunicative ass!!! it culminates in hazel leaving him and crashing at vigi’s farm because fuck it, it’s her life she does what she wants. she will kiss the cheese AND rebuild her tv career, on her own terms this time baybee

2. noise and hazel still have that issue but they actually communicate like adults and fix their relationship problems, so none of that shit happens! happy ending! hazel has her own life and theo actually lets his gf know he loves her! woah! enter vigi, in: “we saw you across the bar and we really dig your vibe…” imagining vigi as a third to hazel and theo, completely out of his depth but too bisexual to care, is SO funny to me lol… like hazel and him are probably the only two together at first but over time he and theo warm up to each other more (gay intent) and it’s perfect

#pizza tower #noisette #cheesecake #pizza tower cheesecake #noisecouple #the noise #theodore noise #the vigilante #pizza tower vigilante #headcanons #noisette x vigilante #noisette x noise #i could make an entire oc out of this lol. love adding depth to characters that don’t have much in canon #she deserves it 💯#minor blood tw #just being cautious #don’t think i need to tag the legs joke but 💀 idk how i would anyways #ask to tag #i guess lol

What do you think of AI stuff like DAll-E or Midjourney?

It's not as useful as some people want you to believe. A lot of people pushing for the acceptance of this kind of software are the same tech bros that invested in crypto currency and were trying to sell you NFTs, which should tell you enough.

All of this "it's democratizing art!" and "finally, people can make art even if they don't have natural talent!" is snake oil.

You know where my "natural talent" came from? I started drawing when I was 4 or 5 years old. I drew at least one thing per day for over 20 years. I earned the ability to crank out dumb doodles on a whim.

You can't just show up one day and think you deserve to make artwork without putting in the work to learn and get good at it. Art's importance comes from the length of time needed to learn to master it. And I don't just mean drawings, I mean music, film, food, everything. No matter what it is, effort is value.

Financial value, sentimental value, it doesn't matter. All value is derived from the effort required to make it.

If you can just push a button and churn out artwork en masse, that devalues the importance of art. I mentioned this back with the Martin Scorsese ask, but it's like, which has more value? An original hand-made piece of artwork, or a print of that artwork? Prints are easy to mass produce. You can get a nice, high quality, glossy print of the Mona Lisa almost for free at this point. But the actual Mona Lisa, the original product, is actually valuable beyond value.

Art prints are literally just replicating a single file over and over and over again, but the original is one-of-a-kind and where all the effort is most evident. All the layers of paint can be felt as DaVinci sought perfection in his work. That's what makes it special. That's what makes it important.

My uncle does woodworking. He's so good at it, he gave my Mom an end table that looks like it came from a high-tier furniture store. A mass-produced end table like that would be at least $100. He made it by hand. It is beautiful. I will treasure that end table forever.

Effort is value.

If you spend any length of time looking at art websites where AI art is allowed (such as deviantart or pixiv), what you'll often find is these AI art chumps submitting massive amounts of artwork. They'll submit 10, 20, 40+ images a day, all from the same prompt, all with slight differences, because to them, every single thing the generator produces is worth submitting.

Even when I was drawing regularly, I could only really do maybe one finished piece per day. Two if you were lucky. Not only because sketching, inking, coloring and shading would take so long, but because after I was done the tank was empty. I'd used up all my effort for the day and had no more creativity left to give.

All the claims of "letting people without artistic talent generate art" are bogus because it throws the whole signal-to-noise ratio out of wack. Too much signal in itself becomes noise. And it devalues the effort that real artwork takes, because real artwork is now part of that noise, instead of rising above it.

When anyone can vomit out hundreds or even thousands of AI generated images that are of decent-to-good quality, a lot of what would be considered "b-tier" artwork ceases to be important anymore.

In a world where AI generated images are normalized, only the top 0.1% of artwork (your Mona Lisas) are considered to have real value. And who benefits the most from that kind of stuff? Rich people. Rich people who can afford to drop a million dollars on a historic piece of hand-crafted artwork. And just to be clear: these are exactly the same people who are trying to sell you on how important AI generator software is going to be going forward.

Or to simplify it even more: the people who stand to profit the most from AI "art" are the ones trying the hardest to sell you on its benefits. Because it benefits them more than it will ever benefit you.

Because, full disclosure, over this last week, a friend of mine has been having a lot of fun with Bing's new image generator feature, and I couldn't help but also play with the toy. The quality of images it can generate is shocking.

Microsoft, in their endless desperation to get anyone to use Bing on purpose, is clearly playing with fire here.

When effort is value and value is effortless, nothing has any value anymore.

I understand how, if you aren't an artist, this is all probably incredibly difficult to comprehend. The lure of fast and easy artwork from a simple line of text is a net gain to you, and nothing else really matters to your perspective. But imagine all of the up-and-coming artists who get completely pushed out of the conversation because of how easy it is to crap out endless AI generator output. I spent 20 years drawing every day for results that can be beaten in 20 seconds.

How many future artists is that going to discourage? There's a lot of buzz, now more than ever, about "late stage capitalism" and the way that's manifesting in our lives. When AI generated images are "good enough", how is that going to change the world around us?

You can't just think, "we'll figure something out" because the people trying to control this narrative do not have your best interests in mind. The people trying to control this narrative think they still don't have enough money yet even though there's not much money left to give them.

Their solution is to stop paying people to do work that they can get a computer to do for free, even if it means destroying the entire foundation of human culture. Long term destruction for short term gain. The same old story.

Are they going to get away with it?

(Another good ask along this line is over here, from February.)

Judge's Choice Pre-Bracket!

santagandas under the cut

santaganda (999 edition):

He's got a cocky and too-cool-for-this attitude, while also being kind of short-tempered and petty. He's not an entirely bad guy, but he's very aloof, and not quick to trust others. "All right, I'm gonna be [Santa]. Any of you chumps know Japanese? No? Well, "san" means "3". So I'll be Santa. You know, like Santa Claus. Fits, don'tcha think?"

He went viral around tumblr one time because someone tagged a post saying "of course you have white hair and trauma" with just "Santa" and people didn't know the person meant Santa Zero Escape, who does NOT live in the north pole and deliver presents to children :) He does talk about Santa at one point though. But mostly as a metaphor for his trauma and a connection to his past, and "Santa" is a codename. Santa Zero Escape is one of 9 people who get trapped in a life or death game. He's a little foulmouthed and pushes everyone to escape as soon as possible, but he has secrets and a reason for being there (just like all the other characters!!!) and he's horribly traumatized and would do literally anything for his dead sister. I love him so much. I'm avoiding giving away TOO many spoilers just in case but god. This guy. He's so tragic.

These covers are nauseating because she. doesn’t. have. cancer and have literally exploited it to get out of the comms mess they made.

I expect the headlines going forward to be:

Anytime a member of the RF does any engagement it will be because “they working to support Kate” even The King who actually has cancer

When The King recovers from cancer it will be framed as he was inspired by Kate who again doesn’t have cancer

There will be zero calls for William especially to step up and work and they are never going to be criticized for not working again. Anyone who expects them to will be shamed

Also not how mercenary Kensington Palace is. When the King was diagnosed, they made no public statement of support. They didn’t even like or share his announcement message. Nothing leaked about how they were supporting him, if the grandkids sent him cards etc. Now suddenly to prop up this fake cancer storyline, The King is used as a prop for “heartfelt lunches” and “emotional hospital visits”. They don’t care about him - it’s just useful to use him now.

People falling for this are chumps are it says a lot about the moral rot at Kensington Palace. William truly is Diana’s son in the worst way and I wonder if their dishonesty and opportunism will ever catch up to them.

Sorry for the long ask but I’m frankly pissed!

I think Heath Ledger's Joker pretty much sums up the situation at this point.

I will also say that I completely side-eye the excuse of giving a public statement now due to the kids' term break & Easter holiday. I've seen plenty of rumors that the UK press has known since January that Kate had a medical diagnosis of cancer regarding her operation. This certainly fits in with Tom Bower's statements at the end of February.

If that's true, then KP could have made a simple statement in February when the kids were on their half-term break about her condition, even if they didn't release that specific diagnosis. That statement would have quelled and quieted down all the speculation weeks ago. Except they didn't do that.

I don't buy this notion of making a statement right before they go hide away for three and a half weeks to protect their kids from their school chums, is it? Do six-, nine-, and eleven-year-olds at Lambrook really care about what the media says about their classmates' mother? I find this really hard to believe given that there hardly seems to be any social media pictures of them attending school functions in the two years the kids have been attending school there. Sure, there's one pic here or there, but when the world is wondering "Where is Kate?," I didn't see any news reports quoting Lambrook parents supporting the speculation that Will had secretly offed Kate. Instead the Lambrook parents seem to be pretty keen on keeping the media/press out of their children's schooling. I don't buy the rationale of Kate announced it now due to the kids' break.

I think the British media is a bunch of clowns, and they are still set about continuing to be so. There were rumors circulating that the BBC was on alert for news about Kate a week ago. Lo and behold, the Beeb filmed Kate's video on Wednesday for a Friday night news dump. But last weekend, Roya Nikkhah was publishing KP pr about how Kate would only talk about her health in person to people she visited on engagements. This weekend Roya is writing about how Charles & Kate's cancer is bringing them both together! And yet, she will continue to post drivel-like scraps even if it's a complete fabrication by KP. KP already had a plan to do a video of Kate if rumors were already circulating at the BBC. When is Roya going to stop accepting nonsense from her KP-related sources? When will all of them? I wonder...

who do you consider the "main" (or most common) knights of the round table and what does your ideal round table look like

Hi there! What a fun question.

I have a very specific answer for this because I actually had to work this out when writing my books. :^) I'll talk a little bit about my inspirations as the potential for the Table is literally endless. Narrowing the scope of sources, both fictional and historical, helped me decided on what exactly my ideal was.

First of all there's a documentary about the Round Table hanging at Winchester that I've made available to watch here. When I first shared it, I made a post talking about how silly some of the inclusions were as they had characters that were most definitely not historical, but nonetheless interesting. That Round Table seats 24 knights, plus King Arthur. Some legends say the Table was part of Guinevere's dowry and came with 100 knights, although it could seat a total of 150. Personally, I have two minds about this.

I was inspired by the idea of a guild of knights in the historical sense. I looked at the Order of the Garter, which is the oldest of such groups in Britain still in exitance today. This guild was founded by King Edward III and directly inspired by his love of Arthurian Legend. So, building on that concept, I think "Knights of the Round Table" can be considered a guild of sorts which doesn't necessarily constitute an equal number of seats to butts. ;^) While I do write about magic, I wanted this aspect to be grounded somewhat in potential reality, so "my" Round Table, the actual physical object, only seats thirteen, including King Arthur himself. This number comes from the Prose Tristan, which in turn draws on the Bible, more specifically, the last supper at which Jesus broke bread with his disciples.

The great and skillful Merlin had exhausted all the secrets of his art in the constructing of that table. Thirteen seats were placed round it in honor of the thirteen apostles. Twelve only of these could be filled up, and only by the bravest and truest Knights. The thirteenth represented that of the execrable traitor Judas.

So, my Round Table seats thirteen people. The people in those seats fluctuates, as is customary with the legend. When a seat-holder dies, their name disappears, and someone can then replace them. I like to believe there's a lineage aspect to it as well, so scion replace predecessors. When King Arthur first began his reign and welcomed his allies into his guild, the Round Table would alighted with names it had deemed worthy. Joining the guild (or Arthur's "household" as some medieval texts would say) wasn't enough, this inner council constitutes an additional layer of honor afforded to but a handful. In the timeline of my books, the "original" members were King Arthur, Queen Guinevere, Royal Wizard Merlin, King Ban, King Bors, King Pellinore, King Urien, Sir Kay, Sir Bedwyr, with 4 empty seats. Had King Lot allied with Arthur, perhaps he would have had a seat. But as it were, his son Sir Gawain ended up there instead. And thus, Lancelot replaced Ban, Lamorak replaced Pellinore, Owain replaced Urien, etc. Eventually, Sir Tristan, High Prince Galehaut, Sir Percival, and lastly Sir Galahad also get seats. It's a perpetually revolving door of people on the council, with more knights joining the "Knights of the Round Table" guild all the time. I think this adds a little extra spice to the whole thing, possibly fueling rivalries. I mean, how many of Lancelot's kinsmen get proper seats while Gawain's kinsmen, Arthur's nephews, stand around outside the hold like chumps? All three grail knights have seats but only one queen? Is it Merlin's magic that decides this or some divine force? How can this force be trusted? Who knows! :^)

Now as for the look of it, I really liked the design in The Adventures of Sir Lancelot (1956).

Each knight is labeled by name, they rest a decorative shield on the surface with their heraldry which is also on a little flag at each seat. It's so extra I love it. I went more rustic though and believe the Table to be made from a cross section of a giant oak tree and the names appear in gold lettering before the person. Fun fact as well, the Table doesn't deadname.

That was a very long answer lol but I think a great deal about these things. Thanks for the ask and take care!

bestie harry would hate your boyfriend SOOOOOOOO much😋 he gets so pissed off when your man doesn't worship the ground you walk on or treat you like you deserve and it especially makes him mad when you're being grumpy with him and he's all 🤨 WHAT is your problem 🤨 and finally you just snap "i haven't had an orgasm in weeks and literally everything is pissing me off okay?" and he's all "ohhhh so that's what it is 😌 i figured this little mood you're in might be related to your... boyfriend" and he says it like the word tastes bad in his mouth 😌 you roll your eyes and go to leave but he just grabs your wrist and pulls you back to him saying "uh uh, you brought it up so we're gonna talk about it" 😋 and you huff but he clearly wants to have a conversation 😋 he says "so you're not having sex anymore? does he have trouble getting it up? i bet he has trouble getting it up" and you smack his shoulder but then say "it's not that... we still do but it's not- I don't know it's just not...great for me" and he looks sooo smug saying "a bit of a two pump chump is he?" and you're blushing so hard bc... he's right 🤭 and he knows he's right so he says "I could help you out with that 😌" and you roll your eyes thinking he's joking but he says "I'm serious 😌 I'll get you off if you want me too" and at first you're like absolutely not but then... you start thinking about it 😋 a few days later your bf is on a business trip and you didn't want to stay home alone so you're hanging out at Harry's house and he's more than happy to have you 😋 one of the days he goes to the gym and he looks all delicious and sweaty when he comes home but he immediately goes to shower so you don't get to stare for long 😔 then when he's done he calls your name and you go to see what's wrong, he peeks his head out the door and says "i forgot i put the towels in the dryer, could you grab me one?" and you're like ofc so you go to give him one and when he opens the door a little wider you see his bare chest and it's nothing you haven't seen before but it's covered in water and looking extra scrumptious 😋 he definitely notices you looking but he doesn't say anything.... for now 😋

then later that night you're on the couch together watching a movie and a sex scene comes on, it's nothing too graphic but you've been worked up all day and it just does something to you 😋 he feels you shifting a little and doesn't mention it at first, but he's in the mood to tease you so he's staring at you instead of the movie and he says "you're blushing" and right away you say "I'm not" and he just laughs 😋 he says "I can feel how worked up you are and I'm not even touching you... my offer from the other day still stands 😌" and he doesn't expect you to say anything so it's quiet for a minute but then you grab the remote and pause the movie 😌 he turns to look at you and he's all 😁yes?😁 and you're like "what... what exactly do you mean?" and he scoots a little closer saying "I think you know 😌" and you're like "i need you to be specific" and he goes "okay... I'll do anything you want me to" and you're like "...anything?" and he's smiling sooo big 😁 he says "mhm...i know lots of ways to help someone who's stressed and needs to relax" and you're just staring at each other for a while 😋 finally you say "like what?" and he's all smug saying "well I could give you a massage, or book a spa appointment for you, could go on a little weekend trip to somewhere nice, or you know, I could eat you out" and you almost choke on your drink when he says that bc you knew he was going to say something like that but he just said it so casually 😋 he pats your back as you cough and finally you say "um, yeah all of those sound nice" and he's like well duh 🙄 but one in particular seems to have caught your attention 😋 and you're a little hesitant saying "i don't want to make things weird you know? like we're friends" and he says "nothing would change, we'd still be friends, I'm just helping you out" and he can tell you're a little unsure so he drops the subject... for now 😋

later that night you're getting ready to sleep (together as always 😋) and he's extra cuddly 😌 a few hours later you wake up after a 😋 very😋 nice dream about him and his leg is kind of pressed between your thighs so every time you move it's just 😋😋😋 you're trying to get comfortable but he feels you moving a little and that wakes him up, he's all "what's the matter love?" and you're all "nothing I'm fine" but he can tell that you're worked up and he knows why 😋 he says "oh really? you sure? seems like you're rubbing on my thigh there" and you blush so hard it huuuurts and you say "no..." but he grabs your chin to make you look at him in the dim lighting and he says "why don't you stop dancing around it, hm? i think we both know what you want" and you finally just give in and nod 😋 he's so cocky saying "finally admitting it then? that all you've wanted for weeks is for me to get you off?" and you nod again😋 he says "I'm so happy we've come to this agreement" and he flips you over so fast 😋 he's pushing the covers off and pulling down the sleep shorts you stole from him and he gets right to work kissing at your thighs 😋 then you think for a second so you're grabbing his hair to stop him and he lifts his head to look at you, you say "harry i want this so bad but- I haven't broken up with him, I still have a boyfriend" and he's quiet for a second then says "do you want to call him right now?" and you shake your head so fast bc there's no way you're interrupting this for that and he says "okay... you want me to break it off for you?" and your eyes go wide and you say no and he's like "okay... in that case I won't tell if you won't" with such a cheeky smile 😋 and honestly you're so over being treated like shit by that guy so you're like... okay cool 😋 and harry gets back to work 😋 he holds your hips down so you don't squirm too much and he's teasing you for how wet you are before he even does anything but you can't bring yourself to care 😋

you keep trying to push your hips closer so he'll give you what you want but he pulls away every time and goes back to kissing your tummy or thighs 😋 fiiiiinally he just goes for it and gives you a long lick and you're biting the pillow to keep quiet but he reaches up and yanks it out from under your head, throwing it off the bed and he makes eye contact with you to say "i better be hearing some noises up there" and he buries his head again 😋 you don't even try to keep quiet anymore especially when he's basically making out with your clit 😋 you're grabbing his hair and he has to hold you a little tighter to keep you still 😋 you're making such pretty noises especially when he reaches one hand down to slip inside and feel around for your g spot 😋 and you're honestly surprised by how close you are already 😋 youre squirming and you're not even sure if you're trying to get away from how intense it is or get closer but either way he's not stopping 😋 he's moaning against you and you can feel the vibrations and it makes you jump every time 😋 soon you're gasping that you're close and he doesn't respond in any way he just keeps his fingers and tongue working just how you like 😋 before long you're cumming on his face and hands and he works you through it, make sure you feel as good as possible until you're literally pushing him away bc it's too much 😋 you're breathing heavily barely conscious, then you turn your head to look at him and he makes eye contact while he sucks his fingers clean and you nearly pass out 😋 he gives you as long as you need to feel like a person again and then he's leaning in to kiss you 😋 it's your first kiss ever and somehow it's so much better with you still in the post orgasm glow 😋 after a minute you break away and glance down as his lap saying "want me to-" but he cuts you off and grabs your wandering hand saying "i already came in my pants" and you're like 😳 but he's completely unbothered saying "I've wanted to do this for so long it's really not a surprise that it did so much for me 😌" and you're like... okay then! and he gets up to get a cloth to clean you up 😌 as he's working on it he says "offer still stands, I'll break up with your little boyfriend for you" and you're nearly asleep but you say "maybe in the morning" and by the time he comes back from the bathroom you're asleep 😌 he gets in bed and tucks you in his arms murmuring "you're all mine now" and kisses your forehead before he's out too 😌

BITCH WHAT THE ACTUAL FUUUUUUUUCKKKKKKKKKCJNJJNCBHUJCJNFJIFCNJIDKCN OH MY FUCKIGN GODDDFNCBHUJINBHJFJNBFHJIDCNJJDK?!!??!?!?! IM SPEEEECHLESSSDMCNJVFJIRJDFNJCJIDNEKL!?!???//

i was doing comics livetweets on twitter but that seems... dangerous given the longevity of that site so i'm going to bring them over here so that in six months when i go "what comic was that in" i can find it. i'm breaking my "no new 52" rule to read greg pak's action comics run bc i've heard it's good! i already read the first tpb but it was on my desk shift so i emailed panels to myself. Country Kids Make Do!

AC (2011) #25: clark is so so charming in this run! he also breaks martha's finger AS A BABY which is a bold move on a writing level. if i found a baby in a cornfield and it broke my finger i might consider leaving that baby at the nearest hospital even if it was as adorable and round-cheeked as clark is here. ma kent is obviously made of sterner stuff than I.

CUTE!

now that we've gotten the backstory out of the way it's time for clark to fight the wind. literally. he tries to reverse a hurricane.

frankly i also find this charming! this is such a young thing to do. i also thought i was god's answer to every problem when i was 20. fortunately i did not have superhuman powers so i never accidentally tossed a whale in the air.

the art in these next few issues is Pretty Rough in the face department. aaron kuder does some rly lovely backgrounds and landscapes and action scenes and then you get a close up and we have some real adult animation ass mouths. it's still not as bad as this though!

AC 26: after clark fights the wind we have a charming moment where we learn that jimmy thinks clark plays a lot of sudoku bc he's always on his phone looking at Metropolis Nextdoor and trying to find crimes. clark have you ever considered going on normal gossip?

jokes aside these panels make me pretty emo about the intrinsic horror of being clark kent. you can hear every bad thing that happens, all of the time, and you also have the power and the will to stop it, or at least to try to. and that's your whole life forever!! woof!!!!

smash cut to the rainforest, where lana lang, electrical engineer, is busy excavating deep under the earth for geothermal energy. now i myself am not an electrical engineer but i don't think this is usually how that works. it's also been years since i took envi or geos classes but i do think that if you disturb forest soils in one of the most delicate and biodiverse areas on earth. this might be a problem. it's fine though bc lana lang is a hashtag girlboss and grabs a gun the first chance she gets.

clark shows up to fight the monster that of course appears, and immediately gets shook like a chew toy. delightful. he makes friends with the monster (also delightful!) and immediately gets stabbed by a ghost soldier (literally that is this character's name.)

AC 27: next issue we learn that clark has adopted the monster, who is actually a child. very very cute. in an alternate universe i think this kid becomes his robin and he and bruce meet up earlier to exchange parenting tips for underqualified 20somethings who accidentally ended up with very rambunctious wards.

clark's exasperation about lana's total inability to use his superhero name is deeply relatable. also clark what else did you pretend to throw into the sun and not actually throw into the sun

AC 28: we go underground and learn about an ancient secret society. i'm skimming this plot. lana is very excited about sustainable energy.

i had to look at this face so you do too!

i REALLY do not know how i feel about leonard sawyer, mahican nation, ghost soldier for (I think?) the US government! especially bc in about ten pages he is gonna literally stab clark in the back. hm!!!!

AC 29:

that's my special guy--

we get some more fighting... clark loses his newly adopted son who is actually a secret prince of underground. hey do we ever hear about the underground civilization again? here i was setting my fic in space so i could write aliens, like a chump. i guess i will find out when i read the next volume!

overall i'm enjoying this run, it's making me feel the clark kent emotion TM. god i do hope we get a new artist soon. sorry mr kuder but i need you to learn how mouths work (eta i looked this up and it's kuder most of the way through this run. sigh. i will simply zoom out a little on hoopla.)

Is there a story for the mahou au?

Not a fully fleshed-out one, at least in terms of a published (or planned to be published) multi-chapter fic, or anything, but there's a pretty solid plot to it and a few stray scenes and drabbles I've written, mostly self-indulgent sona/skeleton content but y'know lol

Basically, things go like this…

Here's Ebott City. It's chilling. 'Damn, that is a sweet city,' you might say--wrong!

Jasper and Pyre show up out of nowhere at the Hero Association one day because they (but mostly Pyre) are being recruited by a suspicious evil organization and the only way to escape assimilation is to join the other team instead.

There's systems in place for this kinda thing at least, protocol for bad guys who want a redemption arc, but maybe don't want to serve a jail sentence for all the crimes and property damage and whatnot--glorified community service, paying the city back by being a hero (with garnished wages) under the supervision of an established and trustworthy existing hero.

So as a villain, you need somebody to vouch for you, who'll be held accountable if you're a liar or try to weasel out of your debt to society early.

No problem for Pyre, who's been Papyrus' rival for forever, and Papyrus has only been trying to convince Pyre to change his ways since their very first grand battle, so he's totally hyped to be his sponsor.

It's a bit of a problem for Jasper, who is really not on great terms with any of the heroes, and there's a rule about only taking on one liability at a time so the least of all the evils (Papyrus) is not an option. He ends up with Sky as the second least evil, and he's a brutal taskmaster who refuses to let Jasper skip out on hero training or cut corners or run away from his fears and commitments and responsibilities.

He…may try to literally run, at least once, in the middle of the night, when the 'oh god what am i doing here, i can't be a hero, i can't hack it' hits and nobody will try to stop him because everybody's asleep…except justice never sleeps, and Sky had a feeling he was gonna pull something like this and a midnight ass-kicking is a clear enough message to Jasper that he's gotta see this one through (or else).

So that's them for awhile, going about business as usual and mostly spinning their wheels on this villain conspiracy thing, having random encounters with bad guys who are suddenly coordinating with each other and doing things that don't make sense, old faces and new ones and nobody can figure out what's going on or why--just that it's probably bad.

The worse things get, the more involved Papy gets with hero business until he can longer hide it from his brother, who is understandably not happy. Slate was under the impression that Papy was in nursing school and going out to study groups with friends, but he's back with the Hero Association? Again? Without him? Uncool, he doesn't appreciate being played for a chump, and after what happened to them (to their whole team) how can he still want to do this?

Alas, Papy's a do-gooder through and through and couldn't stand sitting on the sidelines, so he doesn't regret going back. He does regret lying about it, that was poorly done, but he just didn't think Slate would understand--and he was right, he doesn't!

But the disagreement between the veteran heroes is put on hold when Ell shows up out of the blue, claiming he has information about the Villains' Cabal that they ought to be very interested in. They don't know what to make of him at first and question his credibility--especially when he says he wants them to help him extract a known villain from the ranks in exchange for his info--but when he name-drops King, Slate and Papy are suddenly paying quite a lot of attention and insisting to see what he's found.

Ell is the first real lead they've gotten since all of this started happening (much bigger than the tiny clues and mysterious messages they've been receiving from Nobody) and he has loads of evidence: bank records, news clippings, photos--and stars above, it's true, there he is, that's King and his brother Brick, Slate and Papy's former teammates behind this all, and Ell still isn't quite able to say what they're planning but the fact it's them means it's big and it's bad.

So alright then, all hands on deck for this one, all petty squabbles and disagreements left at the door until business is handled.

They plan a raid on one of the Cabal's facilities, intending to infiltrate and access the computer systems directly where Ell will have a much better chance of finding more specifics about The Big Evil Plan. It's just an outpost, should be an easy enough mission, main crew will cause a distraction while a smaller team slips off to get the goods.

Except nobody was expecting the Big Bad and his even bigger right-hand man to actually be there, and that throws a pretty nasty wrench in things.

Everyone gets a harrowingly serious smackdown and they make it out in one piece only because they were allowed to escape--one last favor from King to his former teammates.

So they regroup.

Ell got distracted in the middle of his hacking when Merc showed up and he gave chase, ultimately leading to badly corrupted data when a failsafe activated and he was away from the terminal and unable to counteract it in time. And it was a waste anyway, because Merc didn't want to be saved, he wanted King to accomplish his goal which--between the usable data and King's own villain monologuing words--they finally know.

He's found an ancient artifact with unfathomable power beyond mortal ken, and he's going to use it to steal away the mahou magic from everyone in the world, absorbing it all into himself instead.

So that's not good! One kind of mahou powers in one person with bad intentions is enough to cause some serious trouble, but for one person to have all of them? They can't let that happen, it'll be a disaster!

But the data they retrieved is corrupted, even with Ell's best efforts to find something useful on it, he's only able to recover the when and the how: the details of the artifact and the dark ritual that's going to be performed, and when, specifically, it's all going to go down.

But where? King has dozens of compounds scattered all around the globe, maybe even hundreds, and they have no way of knowing which it will be and to get there in time to stop anything.

…And that's about when Nemo pays them a visit, in person this time, since it's nearly the eleventh hour and his usual anonymous cryptic hints weren't going to cut it with so much on the line.

They doubt him, naturally, even more than they doubted Ell because he's a villain, he's high up in the organization if he really has been entrusted with this information, why should they believe he's not trying to get them in the wrong place at the right time?

Nemo removes his mask, showing his face for the first time in years and admits that he's doing it for his brother.

Only the old guard recognize him and know he's talking about Pitch, but the rest still doubt because that guy doesn't need any protecting.

But 'protecting' isn't what Nemo's trying to do, really…maybe 'rein in' is a better word. Pitch has spent the years since his injury looking for greater, bigger, more dangerous thrills and it's been hard for Nemo to watch, much less participate. Even knowing he's bull-headed and reckless by nature and that'll probably never change, if you could stop your brother from doing one really stupid thing…wouldn't you?

Ell, with his confrontation with Merc still fresh in his mind, decides to trust him. And as the resident stubborn, paranoid, conspiracy nut, most of the rest figure that if he thinks Nemo's on the level, he probably is.

They get ready for the final showdown and hope like hell they didn't put their trust in the wrong guy.

They didn't.

Merc is guarding the compound when they arrive, and he's never far from his benefactor so they know they've got the right place. He's still a hell of an obstacle, so it's good news with bad news, but Ell volunteers to fight/distract him while the others go on.

Pitch is the next layer of security and much more of a problem. Even when they tell him that King's planning to steal away everyone's mahou powers, including his, he doesn't back down--he doesn't need his powers to fight, the only thing he can see resulting from this is people working harder to be formidable with what they've got, shaking up the status quo, and he's very much on board with that.

He's outnumbered but still somehow not outmatched and having the time of his life against so many opponents. Bring it on! Who's next?

And Nemo steps out of the shadows, taking his place in front of him.

It makes the manic grin drop off Pitch's face for sure, making him falter because what… he doesn't… He doesn't want to fight Nemo… But Nemo's not backing down either--Pitch is going to have one opponent until this is all over, and it'll be him.

The rest keep going while they fight, time is running out, the ritual will be getting underway about now.

The heroes bust into the inner-sanctum in time to see Mal and Rus having it out, arguing over the Ancient Artifact which Mal is trying to put into place and Rus is trying to wrest away from him.

Rus has been thinking about this and he doesn't want to do it, he doesn't want to lose his mahou powers, he feels like he's supposed to have them, and even if he didn't, it shouldn't be one person's call to decide that for everybody!

Mal is totally blindsided and at literally the worst possible time, he's pissed…but when King shoves his brother hard and takes the Artifact to just do it himself, he breaks rank too.

It may be horrible timing for Rus' independent streak and it may be fucking up all of Mal's plans, but damn it, he's proud, and nobody pushes his brother around, not without hearing from him!

So the heroes have a couple of new allies (?), and they're going to need them because King is beginning the ritual and his giant brute of a bodyguard isn't going to let anyone get close without a hell of a fight.

Brick doesn't pull any punches, a solemn single-minded enforcer quashing all attempts to slip by him and stop what's happening.

Merc and Ell stumble in together--Ell finally broke through Merc's shell with a lot of 'this isn't you' and 'you don't need his help, you don't need to get rid of this part of you, we can still be heroes, like you always wanted'--but even the added bodies don't help turn the tide.

Brick's too strong, and the Artifact is working, everyone in the room is gradually weakening as their mahou magic is taken and transferred to King.

A last ditch effort, Slate and Papy plead with the massive wall of bone that used to be their friend, begging him to see reason and stop his brother before it's too late, before he destroys himself with this mad quest.

When Brick is unmoved and only signs that King is strong and can handle it, that's when they realize.

King had kept something back from Brick, about this ritual.

A mortal body could only handle so much of a mahou power before burning out. It took too much, it wasn't sustainable, and to take on that power from others too only heightened the risk to the person who held it.

To take all the mahou, from everyone in the world…

It was a death sentence.

If King did this, he'd be dead in a week, no matter how strong he was.

And that's finally enough to give Brick pause, to make him look to King, standing there with the Ancient Artifact, overseeing the ritual that would let him do the thing he'd been crowing about for years, ever since they all got hurt that day. He expects his brother to explain his grand plan again, to boast about how he's being the biggest damn hero in the world and turning a million little burdens into one big one that he'll shoulder by himself, that he's powerful and he can take it and everything will be better.

Except…King is silent.

Because it's true, and he knew, he'd known all along that this would kill him in the end, but it was a necessary sacrifice to him because when he died, the mahou would die with him.

And as Brick realizes this, horror and rage mingling to know that his selfless selfish idiot of a brother was really going to let him help him kill himself, he opens his mouth for the first time anyone can remember.

The sound is cracking and strained, red sparks of magic flying from the jagged crack in his throat and the scowl on his face takes a pained edge, but it doesn't stop him from growling the words.

"fu--uc-k…..tha-a-t."

And then, it's really on.

It's a clash of titans between Brick and King, one larger than life and furious and the other fueled by desperation and with an ever increasing trickle of everyone else's mahou abilities, both refusing to back down.

The weakened, beaten down heroes (and villains [?]) help where they can, and between them all…

They win.

They get the Artifact away from King, and Brick doesn't hesitate to crush it to pieces underfoot, and with its destruction all of the stolen mahou energies burst back, rebounding to where they belong in a flash of light and crackle of magic.

While everyone celebrates and cheers, King is left on his knees in the wreckage of everything he'd spent so long building, his hopes and dreams once again (literally, this time) shattered on the floor.

In disbelief, devastated, all King can do is say that he was going to fix it, he was going to fix everything--how could Brick do this?

But for Brick it's no great mystery. He did what he did for the same reason King was trying to do what he was trying to do.

'because i love you too much to let you be hurt again.'

And that was always King's problem: too much love, too much self-sacrifice, and not enough trust in other people to take care of themselves and do the right thing.

…But Brick is here, helping him up off the floor, and Slate and Papy are right behind him, his old team back together again, tired and battered and relieved just like they always were after a rough fight and it's…

It's too much.

For the first time since King killed Undyne, he finally cries.

"I…JUST……… I WANTED………"

He's not sure anymore.

"I WANTED TO FIX IT…"

"We Still Can."

"keyword 'we'. not just you going off by yourself all half-cocked like usual, ya hotshot. thought you'd have grown outta that by now…"

'never. stupid. always been stupid, always be stupid.'

"heheheh, yeah that sounds right."

"Slate, Don't Be Rude, We Haven't Seen Them In Years, You Can't Be Your Usual Self Until It's Been At Least A Few Hours!"

"oh are we not counting king's monologue? i thought that put us over the edge…"

"No, Monologues Don't Count, They're Necessary Exposition For The……….."

And god damn it, it feels so normal, it feels like nothing ever happened, like it's just the team ribbing and bickering like they always did, and King feels so young, so stupid, so…warm.

Stars, what a mess this all is…

The celebrating heroes all around them start remembering that the guy who started all this is still here, still not knocked out or apprehended, and the sudden increasing trickle of attention and eyes on the group at the center of the room cuts their reunion a little short.

"Go On, You'd Better Get Out Of Here Before Someone Tries To Arrest You!"

"YOU'RE NOT GOING TO…?"

"I Was Thinking Instead, You'd Take a Swing At Slate, And Dodge When I Fire On You Center-Mass After He Goes Down, And Then Grab Brick's Harness And Yell Something About Him Being An Incompetent Buffoon Who Would Pay For Betraying You Or Something. And Then You Run Off To One Of Your Evil Lairs That Our Conspiracy Theorist Hacker Friend Doesn't Know About."

Brick squints and mouths 'incompetent buffoon???' but King is more focused on the important part.

"I… YOU'RE LETTING US GO?"

"not if you're not quick about it, it's gonna get suspicious if you take too much longer." Slate shrugs with a quick wink. "we'll find you later, to talk more. you know i got my ways."

And that's pretty much how it goes down.

Brick and King escape in a flair of dramatic theatrics, and not many of the onlookers buy it, but Slate and Papy are experienced veterans, whatever they're doing they probably know what it is…

Merc and Ell approach the heroes together with matching pleading looks, hoping to get Merc a spot on the team too--and well, he'll have to join on the community service basis, y'know, because of the crimes, but that's not a problem at all! They finally get to be heroes together, after all this time!

Mal and Rus approach a little more tentatively, Rus hopeful and Mal visibly annoyed.

"can i do the community service whatever too???"

"uh…yeah, i guess… what about him?"

"WHAT ABOUT ME? THE OTHER OPTION'S JAIL, RIGHT?"

"yeah."

"THEN I GUESS I'M FUCKING DOING THE COMMUNITY SERVICE WHATEVER!"

Pitch and Nemo are gone for a long time, completely disappeared off the map and nobody really knows what happened to them, never saw the end of their fight or what they did after, but ages after everything goes down, they're back--and they want in on the hero racket too.

Even with a reserve squad lingering around the base, Nemo's always thought the Hero Association's security is lacking, and he can help with that. As for Pitch, he's done some thinking, and he thinks he'd be a damn good coach for newbies with wild, unpredictable powers, y'know since he's so wild and unpredictable himself and always excited for a new challenge.

Well, stars help them all, fine, hope they don't regret this but welcome aboard to you too!

No one ever sees Brick and King again…or at least, nobody who'll admit to having seen them.

Slate and Papy, both officially reinstated heroes again, tend to drop off the radar every now and again and when they come back they always seem to have new and very thoroughly discussed ideas for improvements in hero training, health care, therapy and rehabilitation programs, plus a healthy cash-flow to actually make it happen.

Where the money comes from, it's impossible to say…but it might be the same mysterious benefactor that's funneling money into environmental programs, and social reform, and a dozen other causes all over Ebott, making change in small but measurable, meaningful ways.

A happy ending? Maybe not exactly…but it's not exactly an ending either, just…a new way forward.

A way where people can learn to live with their powers, to accept themselves as they are with the resources to help them when they get in over their heads.

An imperfect solution for an imperfect world, but maybe a little bit better every day.

the plant's plastic, isn't it

yeah the plant is plastic

can't a boy and his cat just have a fucking summer vacation without being locked in a dream panopticon

its nice to see you girl but where the fuck is igor, in my recollection when igor has not been around, shit has been Fucked.

(I assume they couldn't get the VA for this gig, but also: i love Igor? yeah.)

It's fucking Zuckerberg, Reverie, come on. You shouldn't have installed that spyware shit on your phone!!!!

i'm gonna be real, the textures are NOT fantastic in this game, lmao. I am gonna peek at settings later. the aliases need some more anti juice.

there's a statue there?????

/googles

oh huh i.......... never noticed that. i just noticed the pretty trees. whoops. i'm a bad tourist.

Rather than directing us where we need to go to get the camping shit, the shitty AI is like "hey INSTEAD I am going to direct you to an idol event nearby" this thing is atrocious and we should uninstall it and go back to mapquest

also, I have made an Executive Decision. I am resetting my emotions on Ryuji to zero. I am taking my hatred and ire and all the times he made me uncomfortable as the player of the video game, and I'm putting them all into a box and putting those emotions away. I am going to give Ryuji Persona5Strikers another shot to not be a contemptuous little shitheel I want to eject from the story.

Mostly because his voice actor is doing such good work and I would like to like Ryuji.

But if he dehumanizes or sidelines Morgana, the deal is off, okay? Okay.

ANYWAY, Ryuji is like, hyped for this instagram girl.

Reverie only hangs out in coffee shops that have oat milk and attends shows for bands you've never heard of, he doesn't care about influencers.

OH WOW OKAY

Alice Hiiragi.... Hiiragi......... why the fuck is that familiar..............

oh, Hiiragi was the Enka singer who was married to Namatame in Persona 4 before the scandal went down. I wonder if that's relevant or just a coincidence.

oh okay so something screwy is going on and she's going to, like, kidnap all the people who have cards, or something? is she the white rabbit?

lmao no she actually references the white rabbit later. okay. i DO like her theme and vibe a whole lot, even if she is giving heavy Acid Trip Pastel Tim Burton Bad Guy energy. But Wonderland is honestly a very cool foundation for a neat villain, so I'm cool with that.

thanks, they're fake so everyone thinks i'm a soft boy when really i'm more punk rock than iggy pop at a ramones concert. hi.

I appreciate the consistency, Morgana, lmao.

uh "Keyword"?????

oh my god EMMA is just a reskinned Metanav fffffff

YOU KNOW WHAT reverie i am blaming you for this. You should have informed Morgana that you had a dream in the Velvet Room, since Morgana literally was born there and it might've clued him in to "oh hey maybe shit is going down" instead of being blissfully oblivious in vakittycation mode like a chump.

huh the anime cutscenes look way better in this game than in P5R actually. dunno why.

BUT YEP IT SEEMS ALICE HAS A PALACE. the Cognitive World is back.

oh okay that seems bad. so everyone who friended Alice with the EMMAnav is getting their hearts torn out???? what does that mean exactly? it seems bad. people need their hearts or weird shit happens, either Apathy Syndrome or having their cognition rebooted like in P5.

I am Concerned.

oh my god what is Happening there is so much on my screen right now

i think i might be bad at this oh dear

the first move Reverie learns is a pole dance, though, so I'm pretty psyched for that. maybe this will be the game where Reverie finally gets to follow his dreams and wear a skirt.

everyone is off their game at being a Thief i see

me IRL out loud: oh my god i love you

WHAT A FUCKING LOOK THAT'S AMAZING

i am sad she is probably just the first arc villain because WOW i am DIGGING this. god that FLAMINGO HEAD STAFF this is such High Kitsch, it's giving me everything.

asklfjds;af /laughing hysterically to self

okay persona 5 strikers we are starting on some high notes huh

reverie are you sure you aren't dreaming, man, this feels like a dream you might've had except the person stepping on you in stilettos would be a mean boy.

maybe that's Reverie's type. bisexual but mean-attracted.

aaaaaargh my Odin is outta battery, i gotta recharge it.

BUT SO FAR besides me fucking sucking at the gameplay THIS IS A GOOD START.

before long you're cumming on his face and hands and he works you through it, make sure you feel as good as possible until you're literally pushing him away bc it's too much 😋 you're breathing heavily barely conscious, then you turn your head to look at him and he makes eye contact while he sucks his fingers clean and you nearly pass out 😋 he gives you as long as you need to feel like a person again and then he's leaning in to kiss you 😋 it's your first kiss ever and somehow it's so much better with you still in the post orgasm glow 😋 after a minute you break away and glance down as his lap saying "want me to-" but he cuts you off and grabs your wandering hand saying "i already came in my pants" and you're like 😳 but he's completely unbothered saying "I've wanted to do this for so long it's really not a surprise that it did so much for me 😌" and you're like... okay then! and he gets up to get a cloth to clean you up 😌 as he's working on it he says "offer still stands, I'll break up with your little boyfriend for you" and you're nearly asleep but you say "maybe in the morning" and by the time he comes back from the bathroom you're asleep 😌 he gets in bed and tucks you in his arms murmuring "you're all mine now" and kisses your forehead before he's out too 😌

then he would tease you about it too 😋 after he goes down on you and makes you cum you would be climbing on his lap and he's all 😦 thought you were worried about your boyfriend? and you push him to lay down and say "shut up" as you're undoing his belt 😋

aster loves when he's making angel feel so good her legs start shaking 😋 after they smash she's laying there staring off into space trying to process what just happened and when he comes back with a cloth to clean her up he's moving her legs around and he smirks when he sees how much she's shaking 😋 he's all "that good huh 😌" 😋 🤕

harry being a little stern with you 😋 you've been a brat all day, teasing him and pissing him off so finally he just grabs you 😋 grabbing your hands in one of his and pinning them above your head, then he says "such a fucking brat, aren't you? why do you always have to act like this?" and you just smile and say "it's hot when you're mad" 😋 and you can tell by the look in his eyes that he's about to rock your shit 😋 he says "oh really? is it still hot when i get you crying for me?" 😋😋😋 then he looks at your hands and says "are you gonna keep these here? or do I need to tie you down?" and you say "I'll be good... daddy" just to provoke him a little more 😋 definitely leading to a very filthy night 😋

waking up in hookuprry's bed the morning after 😋 you're scrambling bc you didn't mean to fall asleep and you're trying to get out of there but he's all "hey where are you going?" in his sleepy voice 😋 you're apologizing saying you'll be out in just a minute but he puts a hand on your waist and says "you don't have to go, I don't mind" and you think he's just being polite but then he says "I was gonna go get some breakfast, come with me?" and finally you can tell he really wants you to stay so you do 😋 you're still planning to get up and get ready but he says "we don't have to go right now" and you're like "oh why not?" and he just casually says "i want to eat you out again" 😋 and he makes you cum twice before you go out for breakfast, and ofc he asks you to wear his shirt 😋😋😋😋😋

no but harry walking with you in a big crowd 😔 he knows you get so nervous when there's a lot of people around so he holds your hand so tight letting you know he's right there and he keeps you close so you don't feel like you'll get lost 😔 he'll lean close to talk in your ear just doing everything he can to make sure you're comfortable and feel safe with him 😔

thinking about getting into a little argument with harry, probably over something really dumb but you're both tired and in a bad mood and just snapping at each other 😔 you both say things you don't mean and it ends with him storming out and slamming the door 😔 you stay on his couch, wrapped in a blanket trying not to cry but you're so upset 😔 he comes back maybe an hour later and he's opening the door so quietly, calling your name in a gentle voice and coming over to find you 😔 he sits down next to you and lets out a big sign then says "I'm so sorry" and when you look at him you can tell he's been crying 😔 and it breaks his heart to see how red and puffy your eyes are so he's saying "I'm so so sorry, i never should have said any of those things, i never wanted to hurt you or make you cry" 😔 it's quiet for a minute before you say "im sorry too, I love you so much and i-" but then you're crying a little too hard to talk and he scoots over to wrap his arms around you 😔 he's rubbing your back saying "it's okay, it's okay baby i love you so much" and the rest of the evening he just wants to be cuddled around you he never wants to let you go 😔

harry making you cum before work 😋 you're stressed and anxious and he's just like "get over here" 😋 you're all "harry i don't have time-" but he's all "come on you have over an hour, i could make you cum 5 times in that" and you know he's right and you'll feel better afterwards so you're like 😋 okay 😋

harry is obsessed with making you cum wearing nothing but his clothes 😁 you're in his bed surrounded by his stuff wearing just one of his hoodies and he's all over you 😁 he wants to take it off but it's to cold in his room so you're shaking his head and he's all "that's okay I'll make it work 😌" and he has his hands under your sweater so he can play with your nipples while he kisses you 😁 and soon he's kissing at your neck and then moving down and you know what he wants 😁😁😁 he wants to eat you out while you're wearing his sweatshirt laying in his sheets just entirely surrounded by him 😁

harry for sure loves how he's bigger than you just height wise and strength wise and how he can hold you down / throw you around so easily 😁 like when you're play fighting and he's pretending to fight back but really he's 100% letting you win, then you're getting a little too cocky about it so he goes "that's enough of that" and just flips you over 😁 he pins both your hands with just one of his and your eyes go wide and he's all "you liked that didn't you" and all you can do is nod 😁 just think about that like him being so rough with you but also so so careful like you're on his lap kissing him and you're both so desperate and he wants to be on top but first he reaches up and gently takes the claw clip out of your hair and sets it aside, you're like ??? but before you can ask what he's doing he has you on your back under him and he's kissing you again 😋

anyways harry would literally beg to go down on you like when you first get together and you've done some stuff but not that yet and he keeps offering but it's usually not that great for you so you gently turn him down every time but one night he's just so desperate and he's literally begging 😁 he's all "please baby please i just want to taste you, i promise I'll make you feel good please just let me try" and you can't say no 😁 and he absolutely rocks your shit and you realize you were dumb to make him wait for so long 😁

ohhhhh please don't talk about him holding her hands down or telling her to keep them still 🤕 she's a little whiny but he's shushing her gently saying "be my sweet girl and keep these up here, hm?" nudging his nose against hers until she nods 🤕 he says "are you gonna be good for me?" and she nods right away, he smiles a little and says "that's my girl" 🤕

thinking about laying under him while you're kissing and he does that thing where he grabs one of your thighs and pulls it up kind of around his waist but not all the way just enough so your legs are spread more and he can grind on you 😵‍💫

sorry but harry loves to make you beg 😁 he gets you all riled up and only gives you the most gentle light kisses and touches until you're near tears and begging him to touch you and make you feel good 😁he loves to get you desperate and begging then he'll pout at you and say "don't need to be so upset baby, you know I'll always give you what you want but sometimes I like to play with you first" 😋

harry loves it when he's making you feel so good that you try to squirm away bc it's just so intense 😵‍💫 he just grabs your hips tighter and follows you up the bed saying "where do you think you're going" and gets back to it 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

when you're making out w him and it's so desperate and messy and he's pushing his hips against yours and you're both moaning into each other's mouths whew sorry I made myself horny there

I think on your wedding night you would be too drunk and tired to do much but you still manage to have the most filthy unholy sloppy makeout 🤭 and you both end up cumming just from that 🤭 in the morning you're laughing about how ridiculous that was and "how did that even happen" but then it's on and you fully consummate things 🤭

watching a scary movie with harry and he knows you're going to get too scared but you insist it's fine and you want to watch it 😭 then 20 minutes in you're hiding in his arms flinching at every loud noise and he's all 🙄but inside he loves it 😁

him taking off her makeup just made me have a thought...... so sorry bc I'm not trying to traumatize ANYONE but whenever i take my mascara off I rub it with the cloth but then I run my finger tip over my lashes gently to make sure there's nothing hard so I know i got it all off bc it's hard to tell sometimes but anyways 😭 aster notices angel always does that when they're getting ready for bed so she's all sleepy letting him take off her makeup and stuff and he runs his finger so gently over her lashes just the way she does and she just melts bc that's so soft and sweet of him to notice the little things and make sure her routine is still normal even when she's too sleepy 🥹🤕

cuddling with harry and he's spooning you but you start to feel a little 😏😏 so you push back on him a little bit and he knows what you want right away 😌 so he's running his hand down your tummy and into your sleep shorts so he can play with your clit and make you cum in his arms 😌

sometimes i think about aster coming up behind angel while she's getting ready in the morning and hes standing behind her just watching 😵‍💫 maybe even... putting his hand on her throat very gently 😵‍💫and she can just see the cross tattoo on his hand in the mirror😵‍💫🤕

I know harry is so good in stressful situations 😔 maybe you're making dinner and accidentally cut your finger just a little while chopping veggies, you're immediately freaking out but he rushes over and he's like "okay okay, it's okay just let me see it" and he knows you don't do well with blood so he's helping you sit down on the floor or lay down if you're really freaking out and he's talking to you to keep you distracted 😔 he's talking in such a gentle voice letting you know you're okay and he's taking care of it 😔 it's not a serious cut at all but he's being so good making sure it's all fixed up with a bandage and everything 😔 he would just be so good 😔

harry loves to figure out what you like 😋he realizes how wet you get when he pins your arms down or how you always cum so fast when he manhandles you and throws you around a little 😋 and he gets so cocky every time 😋 he's all "oh you liked that 😌" and it's a statement not a question bc he knows it makes you blush when he's a little condescending with you 😋 and you nod but he's all "uh uh, use your words, tell me you liked it" bc he's realizing you get off on him embarrassing you a little bit 😋

the first time you hook up with plugrry 🤭 you're making out on his lap and soon he wants to see more of you so he's tugging at your shirt and you're helping him take it off and his jaw drops when he sees you 🤭 you're all "take a picture it'll last longer" and he's like "you'd like that wouldn't you😌" being so cheeky and flirty 🤭next time you definitely let him take a few pictures 🤭

I WANT TO KNOW MORE ABOUT YOUR EVERYBODY RESPAWNS AU VERY BADLY

thank u for your interest :)! sorry this got kinda longwinded i think. i never write stuff down lol…….

okay sooo i basically wanted an excuse to think about jack being alive post-canon, but i figured if u bring back the guy who had it coming its only fair to bring back other characters who should not have beefed it. and so! the best option seemed like the new-U system! i know they're just a game mechanic thats not supposed to be taken literally but if they're not gonna use it i am lol.

(putting all this under a cut)

roland not respawning after jack kills him in bl2 is kinda weird since he defs uses new-Us in bl1, but i could see jack using a jammer or some chump shit to interrupt the process. maya n lilith's deaths happen in ways were i……. get that they wouldnt respawn but their data could be still in the system somewhere. i also think non-vault hunter npc like scooter would have at least fast traveled once (most of the fast travels are also hyperion? i think? they feel like the same tech) so they might also have digistruct data. sometimes the system trips up, or u cant pay the fee ect ect, and u dont respawn, but ur up there! backed up in the damn cloud or some nonsense.

wilhelm, nisha, n aurelia are all perma-killed in canon, but are replayable fights, so TECHNICALLY they kind of are respawning they're just………… stuck. the new-U puts them back together but they cant move on for some reason. some goes for a lot of the other infinitely respawning bosses/enemies.

so the catalyst for this au now that bl3 is out is that post-canon, tannis is training her siren powers by shifting thru hyperion's systems, she decides familiarizing herself with the new-U system might be useful when she uncovers all these backed up and malfunctioning respawns, and realizes that if she just like. refreshes the system, all these people might come back. she consults with the other raiders about her findings, n that she probably COULD pick and choose profiles to revive their friends but not their enemies, but tannis is trying to AVOID playing god these days thank u very much.

ultimately they all want their friends back too much to pass up the opportunity and have tannis go thru with it. everybody respawns!! everybody gets a lot of confused echo-messages!! everybody cries!! the crimson raiders are reunited!!!

(this is the part where i talk abt jack and angel's respawns bc they're. specific.)

jack not respawning at a new-U is kinda weird with the context that he like. owns them? it tracks that he thought he was too good to need them, but hes also very paranoid, so what if he had his set up different? a failsafe in the Very Unlikely Event something happens to him, where instead of the nearest new-U, he's respawned at a station in a saferoom somewhere where he can be in immediate control of the situation again. it also tracks that he was very confident he could keep angel safe, but again. what if the very very worst happens? angel's respawn is set to be something only jack can activate, but he has to do it manually so no one else can get to her first. his ego was too big to see any flaws with this!

he doesnt think about the chance that something happening to angel while she's so deeply ingrained in hyperion's systems might mess stuff up. so when she dies, the saferoom goes dark, and jack's too far gone to notice. he's going to win the day and revive his daughter into the better, safer world he's going to build. this does not happen, he dies and his data has no new-U to go to so it just sits there. until tannis resets the system, which powers his saferoom up and spits him out. a new-U glitch he didnt care enough about to have anyone patch interrupts the reconstruction process and he loses his arm to it. he manages enough first aid to not just die again, and finally respawns angel, hoping she'll help him.

after respawning, once angel is able to get her bearings, she's devastated by the idea that jack won, but quickly realizes he DIDNT and he's very hurt and weak right now and this is her CHANCE. but she cant bring herself to kill him she wants to so badly but she just. cant go through with it. but she sure as shit can pistol whip him, collar him, and march him straight to the crimson raiders. once she finds them.

(there are some other specifics we have about this au, and lots we havent figured out yet but this post is already so long im sorry……..)

#im trying to avoid retconning too much canon and just working around it #but i never finished tales so. thats not on my mind with this au so much lol #i try 2 have fun......#borderlands #everybody respawns #long post

There is no drag like a Monday after a holiday. I am not the type to be all like, "ARGH Mondays" or "Ack!" or some other hacky comic strip shit. Like, it's just a day and it's mostly fine but man, after a Holiday so much of me doesn't want to go. There is voice in the back of my head going, "What if we never worked again? Is there a way we could pull that off?" This is because after 5 days in a row off I am totally out of my routine and guys, I fucking hate routines. You'll likely get terrible advice from people over the years and a couple of gems are, "Do what you love and you'll never work a day in your life" and "if you dread going to work it's time to change jobs". This is of course horseshit. What I love is not having responsibilities. I like having zero obligations and the freedom that comes with that. The fact that if I want to sleep until noon I can. If I want to get up and watch the sun rise and then spend the day shopping for Christmas decorations I can. Master of my domain and all that nonsense. This is inherently childish but it is how I feel and there is no job where they pay you to do whatever you want. And I generally like my job so no it's not time to quit, I just literally have never in my life worked a job I would rather be at than doing something else. Anything else. Even when the work is engaging and fun the idea of leaving it and going home to play video games and order delivery sounds way better. It just does. That's because most jobs are not magical dream factories where you never work a day in your life. They're a place you go so you can put food on the table and a roof over your head. It's why you see very, very few people who were born wealthy working in coal mines. It doesn't matter how fucking much they like dinosaurs they can get their fix other ways. Every job kinda sucks is my point but you also have to pick your spots when it comes to complaining as no one wants to hear someone with a better job bitch about their job. It's just not a thing that people want. I am posting Sydney Sweeney who is famous by most measures of it (certainly more famous than me and I have been doing this for more than a decade so where is the justice in that) and certainly affluent by most measures (again probably has more access to money than most of us reading this. Maybe not, maybe you're all stock brokers) but she is neither as famous or as well paid as she would have been if she had gotten famous in 1983. It's been some time but I saw an interview with her where she complained she doesn't really make as much money as people assume but everyone she knows sort of expects her to pay for stuff for her. I deeply felt this because I have a lot of family members with no boundaries and I could very easily make a list of names of which if I won the lottery tomorrow they would try to guilt me into buying them shit. Like, without fail they would not only expect it they would use all the weapons in their arsenal to pressure me into giving them money and I'd probably do it because I'm a chump who would feel like I didn't really earn this money. I'd feel the same way if I were famous I think. Like, did I really earn this $500,000 pay check? No, not like a coal miner did. No matter how much that coal miner loves dinosaurs he's still going to die of black lung and I bet his back hurts way more than mine. Thus I would feel bad about the coal miner and hand over my money to an uncle who I would point out not only never mined coal, he largely fell ass backwards into good situations cause he's a white male baby boomer and when he fucked up every one of those situations his parents bailed him out and bought him houses and paid down his debts and so on. But I'd give him my money so I fully got the gripe from Sydney Sweeney. I have a friend however who did not and it was one more mark in the "Fuck Sydney Sweeney" column for her. And not in the nice way I have on my spreadsheet of people I have posted here. And I get that, as bothersome as it might be and as much as it might burn to know that being an actress is not quite the life of leisure that she thought it was she's probably not worrying about if she can afford her heating bill this winter. So I get it. I have some sympathy though. Because you know... I have a good job but the last thing I want to do is drag my ass into work today. Today I want to fuck Sydney Sweeney.
