i can't believe I've started to dislike going to school, previously it was my haven and the one thing keeping me going. People aren't real anymore, I'm starting to see people as patterns and "unreal" which usually causes some violent ideation -___: I wonder if this will continue to my other friends as well

March CPNs
Tumblr media
this month’s banner theme is tennis boyfriends! lol. when i saw it, i knew it would fit, cause this month was also when WYB went for the lacoste show and most interviews was him talking about tennis. and who is the other actor who mentioned this sport too? another coincidence! why is it always them? 😂😂😂 from new au pairings, coins, similarities and kadian drama— this month delivered the goods to us!
time to review and look back at the delicious candies we ate this month:
• the bone necklace potentially getting replaced because of some anti rumors and what it means.
• circle elements in xzs vlog is a nod to cpf comments that have yellow circles
• lacoste and bjyx
• yibo shows cpfs some love at chanel pfw
• here are some other pfw minor clownery. 🌸
a nice detail seen in his clothes/jacket are red and green flowers. you all know how we feel about red and green in this fandom. yeah, this must be a stylist’s choice blah blah blah but that just how cpns work. and it’s so cute too!
Tumblr media
descendants of the sun parallel! please! you all know i’m weak for this shit. chenwei will always reign supreme, but what if chen yu decides to go full on army or whatever.
Tumblr media
i also found it funny how fans are noticing the difference with their clothes. xz was revealing in his own way & wyb was all covered up. of course these are two different brands so the clothes and everything will not be the same. but that’s actually what’s good about them, how different they are. and yet— they complement each other really well and have the same values in life. they try and learn what the other person’s interest is so they can have a better relationship. 🤍
Tumblr media
posing with their female seatmates 🤣🤣🤣
Tumblr media
• a similarity we noticed too was that wyb was on his phone before the lacoste show, and it reminded us of how xz was doing the same at gucci mfw. i think we went 👀 because for xz, we were already clowning that he was messaging wyb or reading message from him then something similar happens to wyb. it could be a completely different thing and who can blame them for checking their phone while on “downtime” — but let us be with our fake story from these two incidents 😌😌😌
• on 3/5 chang feng po lang released a new character poster for wyb’s character wei ruolai. because of it, a new AU pairing was born. wei ruolai x patient #5. i swear. their characters look good together! some also pair wei ruolai up with xiao sa or chunsheng 😂😂😂
i have to say younger chunsheng before he went to military and ruolai match so well together!
Tumblr media
• same answers on fashion week interviews: comfortable dressing & the color black
• another perspective on the coin that appeared in zz’s vlog - relation to wei ruolai and war of faith trailer this is further “proven” when wei ruolai’s character posted was revealed and he was tossing a coin. look, i know it’s highly unlikely that the whole concept was a way to tease us with WYB’s drama. but it’s a nice double meaning and more! 🪙🪙🪙
• since there is a new character out for one of them, another new AU pairing was born! wei ruolai x xiao chunsheng 🤍🤍🤍
• the two of them being featured at vogue website as stand outs during their respective fashion week appearances. it’s not really cpn but more on them being the power couple 👏��👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 and i’m just so proud of them. years later, they still shine so bright and it has no signs of even fading.
Tumblr media
even with weibo engagement, both of them were on top during their respective events. no one could even come close. and why, it’s so hard for them to work together, or why no one would allow that to happen cause it will be game over. lol.
• our dearest tennis couple 🎾 ; this has become more prevalent in the fandom because of wyb’s lacoste ad!
• the inception possibility - tbh i’m just desperate to relate this movie to them and a cpn 😂😂😂
• the collab between cotti and dove - this is most likely a business movie that has no input from xz and wyb. these are big brands that take care of their company but what’s sus is how cotti posted the announcement of this collab at 10:05. you would think dove would be the one to do that since xz is their endorser. or they could use 10, 10:10 or 10:30 posting time which are equally usual time slots for brand announcements. but no. it feels intentional on their side to use that association. of course it led to some drama but we still made some lemonade out of it by going through some old endorsement CPN examples that was funnily enough, dug out by solo fans who are clowns themselves.
• some are clowning (slightly) over WYB’s alleged kadian a day after the cotti drama when he FW the post for olympics because it read a (14:38) lifetime zhanbo. but you all know how picky i am with kadians. the vcr was shared 14:30 so i guess he only had a narrow window to share, not sure if intentional or not. for me, personally, not everything is kadian. considering the topic too, this is a national/international event. i don’t think it should be used for cpn. i’d like to think WYB is more professional than we are. but who knows 🤷🏻‍♀️
Tumblr media
• this bts video from war of faith! it shows wyb being active — moving around and doing some exercises. reminds us so much of how xz was like during SBMS bts that was released. they are so similar!
• GG’s weibo post the night before WoF premiere
• adding this to the list of brands they both use for their wardrobe: NANS. as usual disclaimer, these are clothes used in brand shoots and may have been chosen by hired stylist of the brand or their own. who knows. i just like archiving stuff like this, especially for lesser known brands that seem to only be worn by them. some examples below:
Tumblr media
lesser known because XZ/WYB are so popular so you would expect them to wear name brands. if not, a company that the general public likes. on weibo, the brand only has 132k followers which is pretty low and they don’t repost photos of celebrities who used their clothes— nothing about WYB or XZ or anyone else.
• 3/21, premiere date of WoF, WYB shares a new trailer for the drama. The weibo account of WoF posted @ 9:58 and WYB on 10:06. So the CPN is, did he miss? was this supposed to be 10:05? considering what XZ did the day before with his post. Personally, i’m relieved that he didn’t do it 10:05 to prevent drama with his so/os because this time is crucial. we can’t afford these sensitive ass fans turning away from him and not supporting his work. he is too smart for that, he knows all too well how these things go.
I like this interpretation from cpfs that he didn’t miss, it’s yibo, if he wants to do it 10:05 he will. but he has limits right now, those who know (us cpfs) will get the meaning and understand him. and we do. we always do 💛
•xz molsion live show clues: lego/puzzles, camping and chasing dramas
• xiao zhan calling wyb lai lai ( fake rumor )
• 3/25 XZS post where the 380 yuan fan makes an appearance and the 8th picture significance
• 3/26 fake rumor 🗣️🗣️🗣️
wls wants xls to call him “gege”, xls didn’t, so wls tickled him, xls had no choice so he called wls “gege” softly, after he said it he blushed so hard, and wls didn’t allow us to look 👀.fake rumor don’t believe it
• 3/27 IQIYI livestream/ watch-a-long event with WYB and him smiling when the host said side by side in the snowy mountain part one . part two 💛💛💛
• 3/28 we got to see a VCR of ZZ and his style looks similar to Bobo’s
• new lounge wear brand cp! bananain x miiow 😍😍
Tumblr media
• a cute coincidence that in episode 21 of WoF it is revealed that in his hometown, Wei Ruolai has a nickname: “gou gu zai” = Definition: Jiangxi dialect. Refers to a child who has just entered his youth. Young people, they are not deeply involved in the world, but they are full of energy. like a puppy, lively and noisy.
it is exactly like gouzaizai but that one is from Chongqing. i know this is a script and fiction, but the director himself said that when WYB went in as Ruolai, he was inspired by WYB’s personality irl. It also means we were all right, looking at Lai Lai as a puppy during the show.
it’s just so nice to know that GG already found out what WYB’s personality was like early on. that he is a puppy — and feeds more truth to the cpn that GG was the one who gave the 🦴 necklace. a bone for a puppy.
• XZ’s xinxiangyin live “clue” on what activities they do spending time outdoors
-END.
P.S: and that’s the 1st quarter of the year done! just like that! actually, a lot of things happened in the fandom and i’m happy that both the boys continue to be active and we always have content. i also wanna take this time to thank everyone who supports both of them + cpfs who interact with me & my posts i appreciate you! <3 i hope the community here continues to grow and we all have this safe space to be cpfs 🤍🤍🤍

wip game!
tagged by @princess-of-purple-prose <33 ty for tagging me! :D
Rules: in a new post w/ rules attached, post up to five (5) filenames of your WIP’s; not titles, file names.
Post a snippet from one of them. Snippet must be words you wrote in the last 7 days. We’re posting progress here. If you haven’t made any, go make some and come back to post!
After you’ve posted, people can send you an ask with one of your file names. You must then write three sentences in that file. If the file name is one you can’t share (for example, an event fic), write three sentences on it anyway, and then write three more on another to share.
That’s it! You can invite others to join, or just post.
my five most recently edited docs are:
5 times vash needed some SUN
fabiniku…………… dies
edgeworth and his phoenix obsession acting insane
mfw my boyfriend ive been dating for 6 months thought we were just boy best friends (he is dumb and i love him)
edgeworth has to plan for phoenix not to swallow the proposal ring
i like to name my docs with at least a vague summary/idea of what im actually writing so i dont get confused looking thru my files so ummm. yeag. #2 is the only one that isn't actually a real fic idea and just a doc for fabiniku related snippets lol
would absolutely LOVE to share something from #1 because the fic is hilarious to me but unfortunately i only have a few lines written. so from #5 which is a proposal crackfic and exactly what is says on the tin:
On the third sheet, he forgoes proposal planning and dedicates a few lines to comparing the visual appeal of Miles Wright-Edgeworth and Miles Edgeworth-Wright. Then he remembers that they had already decided they wouldn’t hyphenate, seeing as they work in the same field and it would most likely become confusing or inconvenient or both, and crumples the paper with a sigh.
He misses the wastebasket again. 
I am a failure and Phoenix Wright is never going to marry me, briefly runs through his head, before he remembers that Phoenix is also a massive loser and they complete each other. Perfect. I am a failure and Phoenix Wright is obsessed with me and he will say yes and we will get married, he thinks. After so many years, this therapy shit is easy.
tagging @bi-demon-ium and @kar-krashew and idk who else to tag so if anyone wants to do this u can say i tagged u :) <3 once again TY FOR TAGGING ME !!! this was fun

A Win-win situation for both him and fans xD
I never mentioned this before but the way Voltage has given Yamato various styles of MCs in different plots gets an affirmation from my side. His persona also becomes a little different with the MCs hehe. I love how much of a tease he is in MFW and a mellowed and caring one in MWA7R. As we know, variations help us to relate to the main character better so yes and the eye candies we get are a different thing-
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
So, which one is your preferred one? ;)

I’m awake again and the first thing I thought of was another thing I loved from last night. Every time Mikey goes to a part of the stage and holds up a hand heart, a sea of people just stop clapping mimic it right back obviously. And it’s just a moment of line like “LOVE!!” “!!! LOVE!!“ in both directions and it made me so happy every time

My #1 post of 2022
Tumblr media
So my favorite (not directly mcr related) thing about tonight was that because we somehow ended up in the wheelchair row without realizing those were the tickets we got from Ticketmaster (side note: which worked out bc my dad can’t really stand that long anymore so he got to sit and still watch the show and have a great time) but because we were in this row we got to sit next to this older lady (older than my 71 year old dad) who had blue hair and who talked to me before midtown. She’s been going to mcr shows since revenge and she’s seen them five times. She told me that retirement is for concerts and that since I haven’t seen the killers since 2005 I needed to promise her I’d go see them again because Brandon flowers is still young and I had some time still. When midtown came out and played when we were young she leaned around my brother to give me a thumbs up. She filmed all her favorite songs (mostly black parade ones and a couple revenge) on her little digital camera. And she got the most adorable pic of Gerard when he was talking to Frank about how to pronounce florida which she also made sure to lean over and show me. My dad was also so happy to see mcr. He was gossiping with me about what Gerard would wear before the show and was so excited about the ghost costume that he filmed the entirety of foundations. Sitting around all these older adults really loving MCR and getting it the way we really get it got to me tonight. This really is the most special band 🥹🥹

@aearyn I love this for us. Where else could you get this pure, unadultered dumbass, if not us to each other?
You here all: gee Alex listen I know this doesn't make sense but I hope you put russian tundra horses in your story about a war in the winter and snow involving russians
You know me and I know you, we're both animal nerds, of course there's random breeds of horses from Scandinavia and Eastern Europe. You can even be nerd enough to pinpoint the origin of random soldiers by their horses, because I sure am nerd enough to put thought into why the main guys have certain horses! Or why the horses have certain names, when named. You know me!
Everyone will also relate differently to their horses. I know I love to call Anders a bitch but for example he is very much an incurable horse boy (and not for his face) and a good rider. His family has a proper warhorse stable(tm) so he grew up around them and values them (more than people, because he is still a bitch). Nikita is also kind with horses but not like, innately A Horse Person, more like "yes we have a horse and she pulls the plug in spring and autumn and now we go to war". Meanwhile Katya is very much a city girl with no idea how to properly interact with horses. Stuff like that.
While not as central, there's of course gonna be the episodic dogs, like Nikita's momma having borzoi in a flashback (mfw it's your fav breed), Anders' little sister has a Nordic spitz (appears once towards the very end but shh), and even medic dogs around the battlefield here and there. As well as the rare trench cat there to eat the trench rats.
And this is, after all, the Wild Untamed Forests of The North(tm), so yeah. Ravens, owls, reindeer, the occasional moose or bear...
I may be drawing people as the MCs but I'm me so there's way too much animal life around.

Songfics I - “The Good Parts” Takao Maruyama (MFW)
The first in a series of songfics (Song-based Fanfictions) I wrote a while back. I picked a song, looped it, picked a character I thought the song suits, and let the words flow as they pleased. The title is the song I was listening to while I wrote (simple). Hope you enjoy!
Song: The Good Parts by Andy Grammer Character: Takao Maruyama from My Forged Wedding
Takao had been staying later and later at the law office. When he came home, he always smiled at the sight of your face, but you could see night after night it was more and more forced. He never gave details about what was happening and “Another hard day at the office?” became your greeting as you’d help him out of his jacket. You tried your best to help him relax, hot baths, special meals and drinks, mindless conversations to distract him but they all seemed hollow.
Another night with a stressed Takao putting on a brave face had gone by and you sat up in bed watching him sleep. It was only then that the lines creased in his brow smoothed completely. You passed your hand lightly over his face, slightly disturbing the soft brown tresses that covered his forehead. A soft breath left your nostrils as you grimaced at your sleeping husband. “I wish you would talk to me, Takao,” you whispered. “I want to know what’s bothering you. I want to know everything about you. I want to share your troubles…” You slid down into bed beside him. “I wish you would open up to me…”
This evening seemed to be Takao’s breaking point. He came home on time for the first time in over a month. He didn’t announce his arrival, the closing door and his briefcase hitting the floor did. You rushed to the front door to  see him leaning back against the door with his head back and eyes squeezed shut, silent.
“Tak-”
He raised his hand to stop your greeting and folded his lips, opening his eyes to gaze dully at the ceiling.
You waited. What had happened? He wasn’t saying anything, he wasn’t moving - he was just… there. Fully dressed and breathing, staring off into space.
You tried again. “Takao,” you whispered gently. “Talk to me.”
“About what?” he responded in a gravelly voice, finally straightening up from the door and bending down to loose his shoes. “Nothing to talk about.”
You started to reach to help but he pulled away, finishing the task faster than you thought possible and excusing himself. You retrieved the briefcase he’d left behind, noting it felt strangely light compared to when you’d handed it to him this morning. Following a bit after him, you watched as he went to the bathroom, trailing his clothes behind him.
You didn’t like this silent, distant Takao. He barely even touched you these days beyond your routine kisses each night before bed and when he left for work.
The shower ran while you sat in the bedroom, wondering what you could do. You were worried that stress was pulling Takao away. The oldest of five boys, he was accustomed to handling his troubles on his own, putting himself last in favour of caring for others. He always brushed off his own struggles. Even this past month, he forced that smile and did little things for you to boost your spirits.
You looked down at your hands, opening and closing them, focusing on the familiar feel of your wedding ring on your left hand. He wasn’t just the oldest brother anymore, you wanted him to realize. He was married now. He had a partner he’d vowed to share his whole life with, not just the good parts.
The shower had done Takao well, it seemed, as he quickly retrieved his clothing articles from the floor and put them in the hamper. He glanced at himself in the mirror, nodding at the improvement of his features. At least it was over now, he thought with a sigh. Maybe now he could get back on track.
You didn’t realized Takao had entered the room until you felt the bed dip with his weight behind you.
“______?” His voice was back to normal now. “Are you ok?”
“...No.” Your voice was so small it surprised even you.
Takao was sitting up in a flash, beside you in a heartbeat. “Hey, why are you crying?”
Crying? Only then did you notice the tears at the corner of your eye.
“Did something happen? ______, look at me.”
Takao’s hands and voice were so gentle, the tears only built up more. You couldn’t look at him.
“Talk to me, sweetie,” he said. “Tell me what’s wrong. I want to help.”
You tried to hold back your voice but failed. “Why don’t you do that?” you asked in a trembling voice.
“Do what?”
“What you just said.” You turned to him, pressing the backs of your fingers to your eyes to stem the tears so you could speak clearly. “Talk to ME, Takao. Tell ME what’s wrong. I want to help YOU.”
Takao looked confused. “What are you talking about? I don’t understand.”
“This past month,” you swallowed, “you’ve come home stressed and haggard and whenever I tried to address you about it you’d brush it off or deflect me with that forced smile that hurts my heart every time you plaster it on. ‘Just another hard day at the law firm,’ you’d agree. I get that men don’t talk much but I feel like you’ve been shutting me out even while taking care of me. I want to take care of you, too, but you won’t let me and that… hurts.” You looked down. “It bothers me that you don’t have substantial conversations about yourself with me. I figure you can’t give me details about work but at least tell me how you’re feeling. I may not be able to do anything but I can listen and share those feelings with you. I’m your partner, Takao. You don’t have to - you SHOULDN’T take things on alone anymore.” You bit your lip. “Why is it so hard for you to open up and let me reciprocate the care you give me?”
Takao had silently listened to you bare your heart in that emotional voice, eyes widening at times, grimacing with drooped shoulders, and looking down in the end. “I’ve always been like that,” he whispered. “With my brothers, with the Long Island crew…”
You spoke up. “I’m your wife, Takao. Our relationship is special, different. We’re side by side in life, now. You’re not the oldest, the main assumed caretaker anymore.” You cautiously reached out to take one of his hands. “Does it scare you?” you asked. “The idea of being cared for?”
He thought for a moment. “I’ve never considered it,” he admitted. “It’s just always been this way since my first brother was born.”
“It makes me feel distant from you, watching you struggle without knowing why…”
Takao squeezed your hand. “But you’ve been doing so much for me - just being here every night-”
“It isn’t enough, Takao!” You shook your head. “Please forgive my selfishness but I want to hear your feelings, Takao. Your frustrations, your failures, your doubts and insecurities… I want to know you intimately. Do you think I would love you less if I saw your vulnerabilities? Do you feel like you always have to be in top form around me? Always pleasant and smiling, ‘no worries, everything’s fine’? If that’s how you see it, you’re not giving me all of you, love.”
The things you were saying, Takao understood clearly, but could he really let that wall down after having built and maintained it for the majority of his life? It wasn’t that he actively wanted to keep you out, it was how he operated. To let someone in, to let the woman he loved and cherished and wanted to do and be his best for in on his emotional turmoil - what could you do? What would you do? To talk for just the sake of talking seemed pointless but at the same time you were telling him that you wanted to reciprocate the care he showed you. He would like to tell you that that was unnecessary but he could feel in his heart how much this meant to you and how long you had been stewing on these feelings. The trouble was over now but that didn’t mean he was completely over the outcome. It had been majorly stressful to deal with alone but coming home to your sweet face and blind actions of concern had helped him shut down to tackle the problem again the next day for weeks on end. He had gotten through it but maybe it would have been easier if he had unloaded with you even a little bit in some instances.
He reached out and softly drew you to his chest, kissing the top of your head. “Forgive me for making you feel this way, sweetheart.” He squeezed you gently. “And thank you.” He looked down at you, his Godsend of a wife. Perhaps this was late, but he was willing to try. “It's over now, but... Would you hear me out?”
Your lips spread up into a small smile as your heart sang. “Of course.” You settled back against your husband's chest as he related his work troubles from the beginning, shifting to wrap your arms around his torso and give him a squeeze when he came to parts that seemed particularly difficult for him to voice.
You both lay cuddled tightly together in bed, moonlight illuminating your sleepy “thank you” kisses as you drifted off.
“Thank you for listening to my story and for encouraging me to talk.”
“Thank you for talking to me. I love all of you.”

Tumblr media
FIRST: Alternia or Beforus or some type of AU? Alternia, Hiveswap era
Name (preferably include how you came up with it and why): Sofacy Lavern (Sofacy is a cyber-espionage group and Laverna is a goddess of thieves, cheats and the underworld, both because she is a hacker)
Oh I love this, Especially w/ the cyber-espionage bent because Laverna was specifically invoked to help thieves keep their cover. This also makes me maybe want to put a Thieves’ Cant spin on her symbol. 
Age: 7 sweeps
Strife Specibus: glovekind (for the weapon I was thinking a cyberpunk like glove that has a keyboard so she can connect to any device on the go if she has to)
I kind of like the idea of her having like… a technokinetic branch of telekinesis, something more mirco/electrokinetic that she syncs through this glove to allow her to refine her abilities. Good for hacking, can also release a static shock in an emergency situation but that’d fry her system for a hot minute, so it should be used Sparingly. 
Fetch Modus: Yeah I’m really bad at these
You know those Hacking Puzzles in video games that are almost always like this- 
Tumblr media
Each of her items gets locked behind one of those and she has to solve it to get the item out.
Blood color: Rust
Symbol and meaning: Armini, sign of the Reconciler
This is definitely good, but I wanna Maaaybe bring in some thieves’ cant inspo when it comes to spriting the symbol on. Maybe. 
Tumblr media
Trolltag: crimsonCanker (a canker as in an infection, as a reference to viruses she makes and spreads)
Quirk: u r goin to paY for this lol (Capitalizes Y, uses ‘lol’ and ‘mfw’ frequently and shortens words, all lowercase letters and no punctuation, starts a new row instead of using a period)
Special Abilities (if any): Regular rust abilities, telekinesis and can commune with the dead
Like I said above I like the idea of her kind of having trained and used tech to refine her ability down to being techno/microkinetic, too. Really fine and technological work is a lot easier when you can use your mind powers to do it. 
Lusus: I have no idea I looked for one for a while and I just couldn’t find anything that fit the theme
Hmmm. Maybe a bear? Sofacy comes up in relation to Fancy Bear, so it’d at least be appropriate name-wise. You could probably also go for Chameleon, for the camouflage/espionage angle, but that starts leaning a little voidy. Because of Sollux’s lore worldbuilding about apiculture networking, bees are also associated with Technology and thus doominess. So you could give her a Flightless/Sterile Queen Bee lusus. Her inability to fly would push a doomy feeling because of the metaphorical inability to run and the inability to create new life, which only works narratively since life is doom’s opposite.
Personality: She used to be part of a large anonymous hacking group that taught her everything she knows. They were activists that started with fighting against injustice online but when they moved to fight against Alternia’s oppressive system, starting with the censorship in the mediums of entertainment they all loved, they were seen as a serious threat and were all caught and killed after a slip up. As the only survivor, after watching all of her friends and her lusus die and having her hive destroyed she has become bitter, fearful and fatalistic. She lives in hiding, trying to lay low and has given up serious activism in a mix of nihilism and fear. Her views on Alternia and the spectrum haven’t changed, but it has proven to be too great a foe and has made her jaded. Now she has gone back to shitposting and highlighting people’s ignorance. She is harsh in her call outs, quick to dig up dirt and mock away anyone she sees spewing bad arguments, hypocrisy and lies. Still, she manages to stay as humorous as she can, even though her jokes tend to be either morbid and cynical or just mocking someone. Sofacy is cheeky and smug to hide the fact that, after being burned once, and as much as she wants to speak up again about the serious issues, she is deathly afraid of making a mistake again.
Oh I Love this personality, really strong and solid. It also makes her placement as a Witch of Doom fascinating because it positions her in session in a place where she has to learn to overcome that passive acceptance and fear in order to overcome inevitability, to literally Change the rules and fate itself. 
Interests: The paranormal (ghosts, demons etc.), creepypasta stories and video games (horror games most of all), she also loves scaring people with her prank viruses. If only she enjoyed digging up dirt on people and exposing lies as much as shitpost and memes she’d be a serious threat.
Imagine her in a gossip competition with your Regina George Archetype Troll. 
Title: Witch of Doom
Land: I have no idea
Land of Harrowing and Hacks. A ruined world where everything is crushed underfoot and ever more destruction seems on the horizon. Some how, in some way, the Denizen of this world has hacked into the system and built a world where they always win. Time for Sofacy to change the rules.

So I’ve done two versions, one with regular Armini and one with the addition of of the “underground entry” symbol into the symbology. 
On the face, I had to add that little lash because Homestuck Style dictates lashes, and I added the eyebags a little more visibly because she’s supposed to be a fearful and traumatized character- she’s gotta look tired. I also did a few proportion edits, but nothing Major. 
Other than that, lots of outline edits for better/more visually appealing contrast!

I’ve been neglecting to post a few screenshots from Hollow Knight, so I figure I’ll go ahead and do that now to make a little note of where I am at this point in the game.
First of all, while I was traveling through the Ancient Basin so that I could get the double jump ability (actually called Monarch Wings), I came across and had to defeat this dude:
Tumblr media
Here’s the interesting thing about Mr Broken Vessel there. First, you’ll notice that he looks somewhat like the Knight (my player character). Second, he had several abilities that were quite like abilities I’ve unlocked, such as Despairing Dive. This . . . has not gone unnoticed by me, obviously. I feel like I have some connection to this dude. I feel like it’s not coincidence that he both looks like and has abilities similar to the Knight.
Anyway, the real interesting thing is that, after I defeated him? The Forgotten Crossroads got real fucked up. In fact, they’re not the Forgotten Crossroads anymore.
Tumblr media
mfw I dropped down into the Crossroads formerly known as Forgotten and saw this:
Tumblr media
Literally the entire Crossroads area is just like this now. It’s covered in infection. (Infection is this . . . it would take a long time to explain, but basically there’s this infection that is by and large responsible for the fall of the kingdom of Hallownest, and not a whole lot is known about it, but I’m pretty sure the Dreamers---of which there are three, and I’m supposed to defeat them---are responsible for maintaining the seal which is keeping the worst of this at bay. I’m not entirely sure how defeating the Broken Vessel factors into that, but when I defeated the Broken Vessel this happened to the Forgotten Crossroads, so I can’t help but feel that the two are related somehow.) Most of the enemies within the Forgotten Crossroads have been suped up and are much stronger, but the most tragic thing is what happened to this miniboss guy right here:
Tumblr media
You see that big guy? You see how he’s covered in infection? Yeah, that sucks. I used to farm him for money. With the Fragile Greed charm I used to get 54 geo off him per battle. I could just turn on Welcome to Night Vale and farm whenever I needed cash. And now I can’t, because I can’t fight him at all, because he’s too covered in infection to fight. My easy money source has run out. (I can still sell things in the City of Tears, I suppose, but it’s just . . . it’s just not the same.)
In other news, I’m in Deepnest now, and this is probably the creepiest location I’ve ever been in any video game I’ve ever played in my life. I actually had nightmares last night that I’m pretty sure were partly inspired by Deepnest. The only other video game in my twenty-eight years of existence to give me a nightmare was The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask when I was a child, so that is quite the accomplishment for Hollow Knight. Anyway, so it gave me a nightmare, and unrelated to the nightmare I had but still creepy af was this that happened while I was playing last night:
Tumblr media
Now, my player character is the one holding the lantern on the right, standing by the glowing plants. That’s me. That’s where I was. Now take a look over at the bottom left. Do you see it? Here, let me help you:
Tumblr media
You see that? That’s my player character . . . BUT THAT’S NOT ME. 
mfw:
Tumblr media
Within a couple minutes I had made it over to where the clone was, and . . .
Tumblr media
. . . he was no longer there. There I stand, on that ledge, alone.
Again, mfw:
Tumblr media
(yeah, it’s the same gif, but it just perfectly encapsulates how this made me feel)
So yeah, I’m not entirely sure what is going on in this game at the moment, albeit I do have some theories and thoughts. Like there are things from earlier in the game that I got reminded about by backtracking (the things at the start that tell you how to heal and such call you a “higher being”), as well as a few other things that have made me think that perhaps the Knight really is not an ordinary citizen here. (e.g. Hornet calls him “little ghost” and seems to have an idea that he’s going to do something terrible, and the way the Seer talks to him, et cetera.) But I’m still not entirely sure what this all means. I feel like this is one of those games I’d need to play at least twice to fully grasp, but at the same time I’ve struggled a lot and I don’t know if I want to go back to the point where I have nothing instead of the charms and such I’ve scraped and scratched for now, haha.
Either way, Hollow Knight is a good game. I’m not finished with it yet, but I’d still recommend it.

CPN : What’s Up with Bottled Joy? 🤔
I don’t usually get all excited with possible cpns connected to brand endorsements nor do i feel the need to post every single thing people speculate about on them. it’s really hard to tell and most of it may just be coincidences or someone on there is a turtle. lol. tho there have been some interesting ones documented for the past years or it can be random ones like that molsion ad or filming in the same location (1). the most sus tho for me personally is them using the same team/s in shooting their ads.
Tumblr media
Bottled Joy seems to be appearing on my radar for a couple of weeks now and so I decided to put in one place what people have been talking about. Add the fact that Bottled Joy in itself was already a CPN even before WYB was announced as their endorser. That’s because they were both seen using it for lemon water. For the past weeks, they have been extra territorial ( meaning they post a lot about yibo ) due to BeddyBear’s sweet message to Bobo. If this is some way to get WYB’s favor, we may never know. but I’m listing down what’s out there so you can decide for yourself.
1. This ad they made about an alien called 9785, signifying WYB and he has a partner who is colored red and is apparently a cat-rabbit. 9785’s love interest also loves coffee. I mean, it’s so random. Why coffee? It reminds me of ZZ endorsing tasogare and his love for coffee. There are so many things they can say that this cat-rabbit likes so why coffee?
Records of life on Earth...I love the cool outfits of the earth, Every time you go on a date with cats and rabbits, you must carefully match them.
Tumblr media
Also, why is it red? It’s part of the CNY release so maybe that’s why. but also, this color is what we relate to ZZ most of the time. They can also just leave the character to just be a cat, a reference to MTJJs. but they added rabbit — which is XZ.
2. Bottled Joy x Milano campaign which is what’s been going around lately. I’m not really 👀 towards this because they are not the only brand doing their own fashion week themes. So I don’t really think this was made all because ZZ was in MFW at all. But if you wanna look at it as that, go ahead.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
3. Sharing this video from Hidden Blade promo and the really interesting characters on the caption they used 👁️👄👁️
Tumblr media Tumblr media
4. They asked a community question on how someone gets over emotional feelings and start to love life. The top comment was a direct quote from something ZZ said in his interview post 2/2/7.
Tumblr media
Q: When you first saw the slander, did you feel sad?
Xiao Zhan: It was more that I couldn’t understand it. A while ago a friend messaged me, I loved what he said. He said, work when you’re serious, read when you’re confused, think when you’re alone, and sleep when you’re sad.”
5. Today, what’s been going around is this video from their douyin with personalized script on it. Turtles noticed that a part of it is similar to what ZZ allegedly said in a LRLG contribution - “ wow my husband is handsome!”
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I mean — is someone there reading LRLG? and this reminds me of Bobo cause he often asks “am i handsome?” 😂😂😂
-END.
P.S : Do not repost this CPN outside of tumblr without a credit to me and a link back to this post. Do not steal my words. Do not screenshot. In short, do not steal content that i made and claim as yours.

Peter Pilotto Debuts Gender-Fluid Collection at Milan Fashion Week
Peter Pilotto is known for its bold prints and sleek tailoring, and designers Christopher de Vos and Peter Pilotto have now brought their signature aesthetic to menswear for the first time.
The brand debuted its S/S20 collection at Milan Fashion Week today, sending printed jackets, shorts and shirts down the runway in a kaleidoscope of colours – some designed with both men and women in mind. It was one of three major firsts for the British brand, who also made their MFW debut with the show (previously they’ve always shown during London Fashion Week) and introduced a line of handbags for the first time.
In a pre-show interview with CNN, Pilotto said of the move, “I think our brand has always somehow related to Italian fashion. It’s always been about colours, research, fabrics or fabrications.” He also added that some of the brand’s pieces have always been somewhat gender fluid, saying, “For years we’ve been doing the occasional garment in each collection that worked on a guy. Some of our friends would end up wearing these pieces, especially knitwear, and would really enjoy that.”
Speaking with reporters backstage at the show, Pilotto said, “[The show] was more about seeing how to change the female silhouette. As male designers we feel that more than ever it’s important to connect even deeper to the garments so we wanted to be able to try them on ourselves and understand how they feel.” They were inspired, he said, by the idea of couple’s borrowing one another’s clothes. “We want to explore that idea further, it’s a kind of gender neutral range, which depending on how its worn can be either very masculine or very feminine and we feel that’s a very modern way forward.”

Satoshi Nakamoto Revealed Says UK Nonprofit – Stylometry & Bootstrapping ”Proof” - Bitcoin News
New Post has been published on https://vipcryptosignals.com/bitcoin-news/satoshi-nakamoto-revealed-says-uk-nonprofit-stylometry-bootstrapping-proof-bitcoin-news-6/
Satoshi Nakamoto Revealed Says UK Nonprofit – Stylometry & Bootstrapping ”Proof” - Bitcoin News
Self-described informative and interactive crypto website, Zy Crypto, a nonprofit based in England, believes it has struck ecosystem gold by discovering Satoshi Nakamoto’s real identity. It’s the second attempt by the outfit, and both times they’ve relied upon stylometry before concluding that Bitcoin Cash developer Gavin Andresen is Satoshi hiding in plain sight. This go-round analysis involves not only statistical analysis of prose, but also Maciej Eder’s bootstrapping method in an attempt to eliminate natural bias in such conclusions.
Also read: Apple Sides with Russian Govt, Restricts Telegram, Claims Pavel Durov
Bitcoin Cash Developer Gavin Andresen Is the Real Satoshi Nakamoto
Two upfront admittances, if readers indulge. The first is, I am a Troy Watson fan. I enjoy his work, and count myself as someone who approves of his earnest dive into such subjects. Second, I have probably read more about the present pseudonym under examination than is healthy, and not just because I make my living in the space. Flatly, I am obsessed. No clickbait here, or not intentionally. No hype. This is a fun pursuit, and one worth some effort as it involves cryptocurrency’s origin story.
Zy Crypto is a curious little outfit based in a lesser-known part of the United Kingdom. They’ve the site proper, a news aggregation service, and what appear to be variations on the public relations themes of initial coin offerings and blockchains. To publish one, let alone two articles asserting both times how Bitcoin Cash developer Gavin Andresen is Satoshi, for once and for all, speaks volumes about either the confidence Zy has in its writer or the fact they’re sporting for clicks.  
Consider this sentence, hitting readers right between the eyes: “We identified Bitcoin Cash developer Gavin Andresen as being the real Satoshi Nakamoto,” Mr. Watson boldly asserts before an immediate pivot towards technique. The primary methodology used in both examinations is what’s known as stylometry. It’s the study of prose put up against other writers as a way of determining patterns and is an actual predictive of authorship when done well.
Stylometry has picked up in recent years as an investigative tool when faced with the spectre of Satoshi Nakamoto. The pseudo anonymous creator of Bitcoin holds more than five percent of bitcoin in circulation, making him the first crypto billionaire. Should Mr. Nakamoto decide for shits and giggles to dump a significant amount of coin onto the market, not only would the price drop by virtue of economic law, confidence would probably crash as well, bringing down a giant chunk of whatever value bitcoin has. It’s a big goddamn deal who Satoshi is.
Zy Crypto neato graph.
Stylometry’s False Positives or Conclusive Hits
The technology to out a writer wishing to remain in has proven its worth. In the mid 1960s, Frederick Mosteller used stylometry to establish authorship of the hotly contested Federalist Papers, determining James Madison as their probable main author (instead of Alexander Hamilton). It took him almost half a decade, whereas today software exists to run such analysis pretty fast. More famously, and recently, no less an author than zillion-selling Harry Potter creator JK Rowling was found to be the actual author of The Cuckoo’s Calling. A few years ago she wished to have her writing evaluated on its own merits, and so Ms. Rowling took a pen name. Stylometry outed her.   
Satoshi?
And Zy Crypto isn’t the first to attempt applying the statistical method to Satoshi’s true identity. As bitcoin’s price began to skyrocket, so did interest in who its creator might’ve been. During Craig Wright’s supremely odd public display, outed by supposed hackers, claiming to be Satoshi and then suggesting it was a hoax, a couple of once well-regarded tech journals believed Mr. Wright to be Satoshi. International Business Times employed the very firm used to blow Ms. Rowling’s cover, Juola & Associates. They soon determined what most in the know suspected: Mr. Wright wasn’t bitcoin’s father (he’d respond that he and partner David Kleiman collaborated on the project, but even that has been posthumously tainted). He managed to fool or convince or onboard original Bitcoin dev Gavin Andresen, who went so far as to record video testimony (Vitalik Buterin, Ethereum genius, weighed in on the noise of the matter, and later just outright spat fraud in Mr. Wright’s direction).     
Late 2017, price fever pitch reached maximum overdrive, and Michael Chon took his own swing at discovery. The Georgetown University and Booz Allen Hamilton alum concluded Satoshi was a group of devs, with some authoring the whitepaper while others engaged in email exchanges. He narrowed it down to four: “Nick Szabo, Ian Grigg, Wei Dai, and Timothy C. May.” Gavin Andresen wasn’t considered, a subject to which we return.
Mr. Watson details how “using Eder’s bootstrapped stylometry method…this finding supports our previous article on the topic that also identified Gavin as Satoshi using Principal Component Analysis and Burrows’ delta.” Knowing full well the history I’ve outlined above, he concludes, “A big part of this failure can be attributed to the lack of convergence validity in the stylometry field.” And a pitfall within the field itself is how “stylometrics often cherry pick results due to their algorithms producing vastly different results when slightly tweaked,” he acknowledged. This led to suggesting Wei Dai as Satoshi, at least for a time.
Using Stylometry Analysis I Have Discovered I May Be Satoshi Nakamoto
This time, Mr. Watson’s confidence in Mr. Andresen as Satoshi extends from Maciej Eder, who “created a bootstrapping method specifically designed to overcome the problem of cherry picking elements like Most Frequent Words (MFW). The approach uses Burrows’ delta to find a difference between two texts, but also uses random sampling of MFW ranges so as to output more robust results. Burrows’ delta is basically a manhattan distance of z-scores which is sourced from a list of top words used in an entire corpus.”
The rest of the article reads similarly, and the interested would do well with frequent searches of Wikipedia. Nevertheless, he’s “found that the first nearest neighbour was Satoshi’s email texts followed by 3 of Gavin Andresen’s Github documents and then followed by Satoshi’s forum texts. These findings are quite reasonable because not only do they validate the links between the Satoshi whitepaper-emails-forums but they also cluster Gavin as the likely author. It’s also of interest that Gavin’s style was so much like Satoshi’s whitepaper that he beat Satoshi himself with the forum texts!”
Crypto Cornelius for the win.
Still more discussion of limitations and technical methodology follows, and those without a statistical or mathematical background are cautioned. It’s somewhat like reading French if you don’t speak French. Yeah, there’s the standard Latin alphabet and all, but that’s about as far as most will get. Again, Wikipedia is a friend. I don’t buy it in the end, and have instead relied upon resident ecosystem muckraker, Crypto Cornelius, as my prime response. “I have identified Myself,” he typed in the patois of most these studies, “an amateur crypto enthusiast as being the real Satoshi Nakamoto using Yeder’s bootstrapped Coronary Angiogram stylometry method. This finding supports a previous thought when I woke up one night and thought ‘Could I be Nakamoto?’” Sides splitting, tears dropping on the laptop as I type to you Dear Reader, he continues, “Nano Stylometry was invented by Elon Musk and is a set of methods that aim to identify an unknown author by statistically deciphering their style using statistics, hard to understand graphics and random information.” For geeks like me, good old Cornelius is necessary to bring us back to reality. Happy reading. 
Is Gavin the real Satoshi? Let us know in the comments.

They soon determined what most in the know suspected: Mr. Wright wasn’t bitcoin’s father (he’d respond that he and partner David Kleiman collaborated on the project, but even that has been posthumously tainted). He managed to fool or convince or onboard original Bitcoin dev Gavin Andresen, who went so far as to record video testimony (Vitalik Buterin, Ethereum genius, weighed in on the noise of the matter, and later just outright spat fraud in Mr. Wright’s direction).     
Late 2017, price fever pitch reached maximum overdrive, and Michael Chon took his own swing at discovery. The Georgetown University and Booz Allen Hamilton alum concluded Satoshi was a group of devs, with some authoring the whitepaper while others engaged in email exchanges. He narrowed it down to four: “Nick Szabo, Ian Grigg, Wei Dai, and Timothy C. May.” Gavin Andresen wasn’t considered, a subject to which we return.
Mr. Watson details how “using Eder’s bootstrapped stylometry method…this finding supports our previous article on the topic that also identified Gavin as Satoshi using Principal Component Analysis and Burrows’ delta.” Knowing full well the history I’ve outlined above, he concludes, “A big part of this failure can be attributed to the lack of convergence validity in the stylometry field.” And a pitfall within the field itself is how “stylometrics often cherry pick results due to their algorithms producing vastly different results when slightly tweaked,” he acknowledged. This led to suggesting Wei Dai as Satoshi, at least for a time.
Using Stylometry Analysis I Have Discovered I May Be Satoshi Nakamoto
This time, Mr. Watson’s confidence in Mr. Andresen as Satoshi extends from Maciej Eder, who “created a bootstrapping method specifically designed to overcome the problem of cherry picking elements like Most Frequent Words (MFW). The approach uses Burrows’ delta to find a difference between two texts, but also uses random sampling of MFW ranges so as to output more robust results. Burrows’ delta is basically a manhattan distance of z-scores which is sourced from a list of top words used in an entire corpus.”
The rest of the article reads similarly, and the interested would do well with frequent searches of Wikipedia. Nevertheless, he’s “found that the first nearest neighbour was Satoshi’s email texts followed by 3 of Gavin Andresen’s Github documents and then followed by Satoshi’s forum texts. These findings are quite reasonable because not only do they validate the links between the Satoshi whitepaper-emails-forums but they also cluster Gavin as the likely author. It’s also of interest that Gavin’s style was so much like Satoshi’s whitepaper that he beat Satoshi himself with the forum texts!”
Crypto Cornelius for the win.
Still more discussion of limitations and technical methodology follows, and those without a statistical or mathematical background are cautioned. It’s somewhat like reading French if you don’t speak French. Yeah, there’s the standard Latin alphabet and all, but that’s about as far as most will get. Again, Wikipedia is a friend. I don’t buy it in the end, and have instead relied upon resident ecosystem muckraker, Crypto Cornelius, as my prime response. “I have identified Myself,” he typed in the patois of most these studies, “an amateur crypto enthusiast as being the real Satoshi Nakamoto using Yeder’s bootstrapped Coronary Angiogram stylometry method. This finding supports a previous thought when I woke up one night and thought ‘Could I be Nakamoto?’” Sides splitting, tears dropping on the laptop as I type to you Dear Reader, he continues, “Nano Stylometry was invented by Elon Musk and is a set of methods that aim to identify an unknown author by statistically deciphering their style using statistics, hard to understand graphics and random information.” For geeks like me, good old Cornelius is necessary to bring us back to reality. Happy reading. 
Is Gavin the real Satoshi? Let us know in the comments.
