I'm seeing a lot of people with neurodivergency, specially under the autism spectrum say that "Laios is annoying, never shuts up, is insensitive, and I can't stand him"; and the irony is not lost on me lmao.

#like im sorry dude did you think all autism is “anime obsessed dude”? #how did you think neurodivergent people behaved on old times? #also like #being unintentionally insensitive is almost a telltale sign of autism cause you struggle with social cues #if anything i think a lot of you are finally habing to face your own internalized predjudices #“he is annoying” yes that's how ableist neurotypical people talk about us all the time tell me something i haven't heard already #like how do i explain to you that a lot of neurotypical people tal the exact same eay youre talkbing about laios #and is annoying when they go “but im neurodivergent! i can be biased agaisnt neurodivergent people” #yes you can because being neurodivergent is not a monolith and you are mistifying being neurodivergent #by implying theres some sort of virtue in being under the spectrum when youre as capable of being a dick just as everyone else #like you think you have autism but suddenly wanting to taste things youre not supposed to eat and not remembering peoples names is too much? #some of yall never experienced beinf a “weird kid” at a young age and it shows #and im not talking the “geek bullied” weird kid kinda way #im talking “the adults think I'm weird amd don't know how to deal with me” #WHICH FITS LAIOS PERFECTLY BECAUSE WE ACTUALLY HAVE A SCENE OF HIS DAD SHOWING HIM FALLIN AS A BABY #AND NOT UNDERSTANDING WHY IS THERE NO EXPECTED REACTION FROM LAIOS #anyways im making this rant because is unreal how many posts of this exist #you think Laios is annoying cause he wont shut up? #congratulations thats how most people see us #now get over it or watch other series if you hate it that much #dunmeshi hell thoughts #weird rant i suppose #dungeon meshi #laios touden

This wasn't new to all these kinds of mists but it seems that they have found a ruined carriage as the insides of it were stolen and none of them were hurt due to those in-charge had retreated. Of course, this means one thing. They are in Albedo's world even if its mistified.

Albedo was way too ahead of the scene as Mashu might have seen it first.

"Mashu, what did you found around the road?" With 3F on her hand and Hermes Trismegistus isn't on but carried in a compact way, she had to know as it could be deja vu by a chance.

This is an event rerun. For more information on how to participate, please check our EVENT RERUN GUIDE! If you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask!

Anticipation falls over the laboratory, blinding lights reflecting in the glasses that a finger taps gently upon the rim of, lips pursing as she takes in the details which rest upon the screen before her. Another moment passes before a nigh pleased hum escapes her, and she settles herself into the wheeled seat not so far from the myriad of machines. Several data files read across a few monitors, all while the cursor resting behind the final calculation blinks in solemn silence.

“So you’re finally ready to begin? The stress test, as the kids would call it these days.”

"Ready as I'll ever be, I suppose. Everything's all in order, mmhm."

“Well, I suppose that’s better than some recruits in my time,” the blonde muses, fingers lifting to adjust her glasses before leaning back into her chair. “I look forward to seeing how this all pans out, mm? Oh, in regards to your lovely project in this all. And come to think of it… would you care to do the honors, Caelum?”

Swiveling her chair partway, her lips turn into a scarce smile at her fellow Star, all before green eyes turn to the keyboard with the last modifications placed in. One in particular glows an eerie red, the words sprawling across the screen reading plain as day: DISABLE Respawn_System.

"Aha, this isn't my first rodeo, not to worry!"

Although his words were strained, as if he had to lift them to sound lighter. Contrary to the grin on his companion's face, the corners of his mouth were in a tight line, and the hands that gripped his cane bore white knuckles. His greying hair almost reflects pink in the sanguine light of that one line.

Less to Pleiades, and more to the subjects beyond the veil, he murmurs.

"We're counting on you all out there. I pray you overcome this, too."

Pleiades watches as the screen flickers to life in silent agreeance, a few blips processing forth from the machine. One she has come to know well enough — the consciousness of Janus drawn in, sent away to the personal computer tucked to the wayside of Caelum’s space. The other is the sign that the machines would find the briefest respite, the final murmurs of fans as they come to a slow decline, all before the screen bleeps those final, lonely words:

REVIVAL MODE GONE. NIGHTY NIGHT... (ᴗ˳ᴗ)

"Good luck, and godspeed."

Silence, too, reaches through the streets of Spirale, with none so aware of what was to come. Those who slumber would find naught to stir them, lest it was another or the happening of coincidence. Those who take to the evenings would carry on their night as they would any other. Perhaps it was the trick of one’s eye that causes them to turn their gaze toward the perimeter of the city, where mists have long since lingered as a reminder of where they remain, only shifting whenever newfound areas were unveiled. Before long, a tendril of fog would unfurl in, breaking the barrier of the very city which most have come to find safety in.

And then another, snaking its way through the edges, creeping along the streets as it begins to pour in, as if finally freed from the confinements that kept it from finding its way to those inhabiting the city at long last. It begins to flood the streets, blanketing the buildings in a whitened haze.

Should you run?

But... where would one run where it cannot follow?

Only a few paths remain, a promise of sanctuary where all paths lead from Spirale toward where the murky white walls once loomed. And for those who found themselves washed over by the creeping mists, they would also be greeted with the haunting view of a never-ending eclipse stained crimson amidst the obscured skies; as if it were looming in wait, watching their every move...

welcome to the next event renewal: MISTIFIED! this event will run until MARCH 17TH, 11:59PM and will count toward your rankings. the event is a bit of a read due to its nature, but we hope that once you get through it, you'll be able to have fun with it in a lot of ways you can take this information. and if you have any questions that aren't answered in the following, the inbox is open for you!

SO WHAT’S GOING ON?

we’re glad you asked! the short of it is that the two stars, pleiades and caelum, are implementing a project of sorts. this project, or “stress test” as pleiades has called it, involves activating something within the mysterious mists that's usually meant as a proximity to keep people from venturing too far out. as seen in the event premise above, this takes the form of the mists beginning to slowly flood into the city, blanketing it all to cover everything up.

while it’s overrunning the city itself, the outskirts of the city seem to have several branching areas that aren’t filled with mist, allowing people to escape out of spirale and into radial island. these paths are more focused and narrow, with some leading into dead ends, while others carry on endlessly the further along you go. one thing that should be noted is that people will find that, oddly, the locals don’t seem to be phased at all at what’s happening as they carry on with their lives, as if there’s nothing to be concerned of at all.

whether people decide to take these open paths or instead venture into the mists is entirely up to them, as there’s really no wrong way to go about it.

WILL WE FIND ANYTHING ON THE PATHS?

you will, yes! those who’ve chosen to wander the paths provided to them at various points of the city outskirts will note that the scenery is similar to most land they’d find on the island thus far. however, on their travels, some might be surprised to find that they’ll stumble upon various things from their worlds. things such as general vegetation, specific flowers, or other natural scenes might pop up and can be plucked or touched as if they were actually native to the island itself, as well as some harmless wildlife that are native to their worlds.

WHAT HAPPENS IF WE ENTER THE MIST?

wandering into, or being engulfed, by the mists will lead to a lot more complicated reactions than the trails provide, much like if someone were to do so when the mists hadn’t invaded the city. only this time it varies compared to the usual consequences you’d feel the further you venture out from the center point of spirale.

to start, there’s still the risk of the usual pain and transparency that comes with going into it the further you go, to the point that you might entirely disappear as you normally would. while that’s the case, some might come to experience something else entirely in other areas of the mist, such as their weapons manifesting at their sides, or even the entirety of their powers being returned to them despite not having been fully unlocked. likewise, people who have some, or all, of their powers returned already might find that they’re now stripped of them either fully or in various degrees. their weapons may also disappear or flicker out at a moment's notice, too.

these are all fairly alarming alongside the ominous eclipse that looms overhead in the foggy sky, but even more so are the data imprints that people may come across.

DATA IMPRINTS?

traces of “data” which can be either residual or even sometimes sentient.

RESIDUAL DATA IMPRINTS will manifest in ways such as scenes of the past being played out that others can see. these particular scenes can come from the character’s time in spirale itself or even from something that happened to them back from their own world. and just as scenes of the past can be played and seen, ones from the future are also fully possible to encounter! scenes like these can also be ones from future plots you might have that will come to pass in spirale or even characters witnessing what they’ll experience in the future of their own worlds. it’s also possible that if the series your character comes from has branching paths, they could even catch glimpses of scenes that have happened in those branching timelines that may differ from your character's own experiences and routes.

SENTIENT DATA IMPRINTS are a lot more dangerous, plainly put. rather than scenes playing out as if it were to be watched, it will manifest in the way of creatures or people your characters may know, as well as behave eerily as if they were really here and brought to the island. whether it’s a pet you haven’t seen in ages, someone you want (or don’t?) want to see, monsters you’d find roaming in your world, or even yourself, anything is possible to manifest in this state! remember that they’re just as physical as you or anyone else here, so it’s possible that they can even harm you.

WHAT CAN WE DO WITH THEM?

honestly? the sky’s the limit with this one! you can take these concepts and apply them to your muses as you see fit. if you want a sentient data imprint of your past self to show up so you can duke it out with them, go for it! want them to see a future situation they haven’t encountered yet within canon without updating your canon point just yet? absolutely fine! just be mindful of fellow writers and make sure you get permission from them if it involves a character already on the masterlist if it goes beyond just witnessing canon events.

SO UHH… THE RESPAWN SYSTEM?

gone. kaput. no longer something your character can rely on.

with the respawn system being intentionally taken down, your character will actually die without returning back to their beds like usual. the characters themselves won’t know this is in effect until they experience it or witness someone else die. needless to say, they won’t be waking up in the spirale they currently know for a long while...

THEN WHERE DO WE GO WHEN WE DIE?

anyone who dies during the event will find themselves in a new place until the end of the event, actually! don’t be fooled, though. while you’ll wake up with some pain at first, it's obvious that you're actually "dead" and you can't leave this zone. consider it like purgatory! you’re able to move around and walk just fine, but the scenery itself is very hazy and ethereal for right now. you might see distant shapes of buildings or other structures and maybe even bump into others who suffered the same fate while the respawn system is down. you can also find screens across this zone that actually relay what's going on in radial island in real time, allowing your character to see what's going on in some places while in this zone if they choose to watch! otherwise, you won't be able to contact anyone on the outside of this area nor can they make contact with you.

It's further out into the Mists, but strangely they don't sting as much here, where familiar strains of piano have lured two Plants deeper in.

"—said, don't go any further," insists Vash, helplessly having to dart after the calmer-paced Knives. "Stop. Stop. Stop!"

After the last time the two met, he's inclined to keep his hands off of Knives ( @plantfell ). Unsurprisingly, it isn't much comfort for a pacifist to only have a physical advantage over someone who knew exactly where to cut. It's a nightmare to think of him coming across this Vash's twin.

❝ Would you mind... Keeping it down? ❞

The pianist they've abruptly happened upon looks over his little shoulder; he pauses for a half-rest, before returning his attention back to the keys. Rehearsal continues. How annoying, trying to practice with all this racket from whoever-it-was. Couldn't they take a seat?

The culprit in question goes pale, standing at a dead stop. Naï would probably laugh at the dumb look on his face, if he'd cared to turn back to see it.

Past Looks \ Mistified Starter @baddestdangerboy​

He should’ve stayed at home. He should’ve stayed at home...

He was hoping that these weird mists might’ve cleared up by now, but they only seemed to get thicker the longer he was out here. The voices he thought he heard were really starting to get to him, and not in a good way, He didn’t want a repeat of what happened on that spaceship.

He really should’ve stayed at home.

Between the scrambling thoughts and the growing panic in his chest, he was able to make out something that was human shaped. He wasn’t sure what these mists did, but it didn’t seem dangerous... yet.

Upon getting closer, he realized what he saw. To call him tall was not factorable since everyone he knew was taller than him, but that red hair and eye patch he’d recognize anywhere.

[Badou!] He hurried towards him, relieved to meet someone familiar. [Oh boy, oh boy am I glad to see ya!] He would have hugged him if he could have, but thought better of it... for now. He actually wasn’t even sure if this was Badou or the mist playing tricks on him, but he didn’t really care.

[What are you doing out here? You’re not hurt are you?] He wanted to make sure, just in case. He was just like that.

       once their eyes meet, a smile spills onto dimitri’s features and he beams, put somewhat at ease by her acknowledgement. it had appeared to him only a moment prior that she were about to collapse, but thankfully, she seems to have stood strong against whatever may have nauseated her.

               ❝  there you are--- i thought i had lost you for a moment, professor!  ❞ once assured of her presence, he drops his hand from her shoulder, ❝  are you well?  ❞

@baddestdangerboy, mistified.

★ --;; It's chillier here than in the rest of the ship- s-surely he's still on the ship, isn't he? The mist is covering everything so thoroughly, he's not entirely sure what's going on. Had a room of cryotanks gone bad or something? A part of him wishes that he had the heavier coat he always wore in the chamber rooms. There's a steadily growing panic in his chest, short legs carrying him through the haze.

This has to be the ship. This has to be. (There are too many people, though, and the denial he keeps clinging to is holding on by a thread at best.) But this guy doesn't look like a crew member, and Vash has to clench his small fists at his sides, furrow his brows, put on bravado to hide the shaking of his fingers and knees.

"Excuse me, sir?"

"I can't find my brother. Have you seen him? He looks like me, but he's a little bit shorter. We're twins."

"Can't believe he didn't even lift a finger to defend himself? You'd think after the shit he pulled back then killing us all in cold blood, he'd have no problem doing it again! HAHA!"

"Of course, it's no surprise that he didn't harm you. He could've the whole time, but he never touched you, sir. At the end of the day, he still knows who's in charge. He'll come running back to you in no time."

"I truly trained him well. I have to admit, it felt damn good giving him a taste of his own medicine. If I didn't need the sonuvabitch, I would've killed him myself a long time ago. My goal is to run this place and Sun's going to help me get what I want."

Laughter fills the quiet misty air around them. Bentley gestures for one of his men to check one of the buildings nearby for any valuables and without question, the men does so.

"Make sure we're grabbing everything---Hm? Who the fuck are you?" Bentley scoffs when the mist clears enough for him to see clearly, "Some punk ass kid."

Revealing Mists ~ Event Starter

This wasn't their first trip out here. Gyess had brought Romanus to her nest several times. He'd even helped her make it a little more weatherproof to account for the cold weather of this land. He didn't seem to exactly understand why she liked to be outside, but she'd always try to explain it.

"(I know that I get more tired when I'm outside in the snow, I just prefer the closed space. When I am in my... ) accom-o-day- tion (I sleep in a very small room anyways! It has a door on it with a weird wooden bar across the top.)" She was referring to her closet.

She spoke as she was fidgeting with a couple of the pillows and her special box of treasures. These included things like food, gifts, and an assortment of fun items she'd collected, all kept safe in a dirty cardboard box she found on the streets. She wasn't bothered by it.

"(I've heard of something humans do called... oh it's called um.)" she was trying to remember the common word. "Camping? Camping! Where they sleep outside on purpose in a small mountain!" She makes a hand gesture of a peak, not remembering the word tent.

"(We should do that! If-if you wouldn't mind it at least. I know how to find the best food!)" She seemed rather excited about it, though she just liked to hang out with Romanus anyways, in his home or around hers.

Panic starts to rise at the pit of her stomach as she watches the CLOUD of the oh-so familiar mist plagues the area she was shopping in. She doesn't like this ONE bit and takes a step back.

She can't see through the thick mist. However, she sees what is unmistakably her sister Yaira walking through the mist.

"Yai--...." Her name chokes at the back of Ismael's throat. Is this a trick?

“But what do you do for fun?” Mirage insists. The machine’s small, her blue-metal chassis a reflection of her notably more violent, winged counterpart, except she’s wearing a schoolgirl uniform and equipped with a voicebox. One of her hands is poised over a shared pizza, the toppings split: one half blood sausage sauce (local specialty!) with onions and those tiny knobbly sausage bits on top, the other mushroom with extra cheese. Mirage selects a slice from her side of the table and takes a bite. Through a mouthful, she says, “Do you do, like… cool skateboard tricks, or something? I cannot imagine what it’s like to avoid conflict all the time.”

(Don’t worry about the logistics of how she eats.)

…did food from a hallucinated reality fill you up? Mirage is already practically a dream, but the person across from her—Vash (@blankticket), right?—probably isn’t. She taps a tiny plastic container of chili flakes and decides to dump some on the rest of the slice. “Sounds terribly boring.”

People will create a fanon that has nothing to do with the themes or plots of the source canon and then claim that they’re better than the writers bc instead of a horror tragedy about destructive familial love they wrote an uplifting story about queer love and found family which isn't inherently a bad story it's just literally the furthest thing from what the source material intended

If you're going to pride yourself on "telling a better story than canon" you need to at least be telling a SIMILAR story to canon otherwise you're showing up to a pie contest bragging that you've made a better pie than anyone there and hauling out a fucking cake.

Literally. People will be like "the secret good spn in my head" and then it's a feel-good romcom chock full of amatonormativity, because god forbid people aren't coupled up, everyone knows you have to end up in a committed romantic/sexual relationship 💀 Genre and themes of the actual text are dismissed and even the characters have barely a resemblance to their canon counterparts apart from their names and looks. You said it perfectly, their "better spn" couldn't be further removed from the actual source. They're not telling a better story, they're telling a completely different story.

If you don't like the kind of story spn actually is, that's fine, just stop watching it!! I too have some issues with parts of spn's story, but the core of it, the horror tragedy about destructive familial love as you say (honestly this is such a good description, I gotta remember that!), is something I love. And honestly I don't get it, why engage with something whose concept you don't like and then spend so much time and energy rewriting it in your head from the ground up instead of just watching something more to your tastes?
