thinking ab steve seeing sinclair!reader for the first time in this au im thinking ab writing.
shes hanging out in nancys room, her first week back in hawkins in years. dustin leads steve upstairs to mikes room, but he stops just before the door to nancys room to tie his shoe, the younger boy leaving to mikes room since steve said he didnt need to wait. beside him was the muffled sound of stacy q blaring through nancys radio, accompanied by a voice he was sure he had heard before. “so nancy drew, whos the stud?” you say, picking up a polaroid picture of steve that you’d found laying tucked under something in her room. it had ‘1983’ scribbled on it messily “i didnt even know i still had that, god. that, my friend, is steve the hair harrington” hearing his name, steve lingered a little. tying his other shoe for good measure, and to not look like the creep he was definitely being right now. “no fucking way. thats steve harrington? the one who threw up on sarahs desk in the sixth grade?” see, contrary to popular belief, steve hadnt always been hot. he had his awkward phase, which was really the only impression youd had of him so far. he winced at the memory. the sound of nancys laughter filled the room, as he stood up. brushing spare bits of carpet fuzz off of his knees, he could hear muffled conversation going on behind the door, though he stopped paying true attention after the embarrassing trip down memory lane. he was fine for a while, in mikes room helping the boys with some lego project they used as an excuse to hang out some more with steve. hed forgotten all about the conversation he overheard. until the same voice filled his ears again. “hey lucas, i need to be home by nine i have shit to do in the morning, so hurry it up please.” steve had been sure his mouth was agape as he looked at you in the doorway. he wasnt the only one who grew out of the patented sixth grade awkwardness. you smiled at him, and he felt his cheeks heat up. that was when he realized he was still totally being perceived. that and the fact that lucas smacked him hard as hell in his bicep. it didnt hurt necessarily but it was enough to knock him out of his thoughts “steve fucking stop with the sister thing its getting old. and y/n, you cant rush art” “theyre blocks? i- just hurry the hell up.” you said, tapping your imaginary wrist watch. “ i can drive him” steve offered, as the boys all looked at him like he was speaking nonsense. “thatd be great,” you smiled once again, “youre steve harrington right?” you asked. you knew the answer, and he knew you did, but he nodded anyways. “yup. y/n sinclair i assume. its been a minute.” “totally” the interaction was awkward and short, but steve still found himself smiling and nodding like an idiot while you told lucas to call before he left, and told steve the cerfew. it wasn’t until you were halfway out of the door that the boys started harassing him for his obvious new found crush. “first nancy, now this. you are the scum of the earth” “leave him alone he oh so obviously has a type” “we might have to start babysitting you harrington” you laughed it off on your walk back to nancys room that night, but that definitely didnt stop you from letting him kiss you stupid in the back of scoops ahoy two months later.

my opinions on the project sekai redesigns
our kids are growing up and entering a new year in high school, which means that they now have completely new designs because thats how idol gacha rhythm games work!!! woo!! and i have Thoughts
im gonna talk about my opinions on all the redesigns from least to most favorite. note that these are not my rankings of the groups themselves lol, thatd be
vbs -> n25 -> mmj & l/n (they’re tied for second) -> wxs
(from least to most favorite)
#5 - MORE MORE JUMP!
Tumblr media
ohhh my sweet girls, my precious girls, what did they Do to you.
the blue looks So bad on them. it clashes with minori and airi and feels too samey with shizu and haru. i like their shoes, tho, and i like how airi keeps her trend of her outfit straying just a little bit from the norm.
these outfits just feel so boring and lifeless, compared to their og ones that had a lot more personality and a lot more charm. i dont think the dresses themselves are ugly, in fact i find them quite pretty, but i dont think they suit the girls very well.
also what the fuck is miku wearing lmao (i like her hairstyle tho)
i like all the girls hair accessories tho they’re cute
i hate ranking them last because i love mmj so much but yeah im very disappointed and i honestly prefer their canon outfits that they wear while performing not in the sekai (the ones that their fans helped design in the metamo re:born event that i forgot the name of)
#4 - Leo/need
Tumblr media
firstly i wanna say im so happy that honami gets to be pictured with her instrument like the others, and i really like how they positioned saki’s keyboard
i dont hate these designs!! i quite like them actually. they seem more unified and professional, which fits because leo/need is SIGNED with an AGENCY now oh yeah im so proud of them
im sad that ichikas wearing her tie now rip ichikas tie around her wrist you will be missed by me and me only
i really like their new outfits!! the girls look and feel older. im not really vibing with the shade of gray used tho, i wish their uniforms were black or white or a different shade of gray. i also love the pins and buttons on mikus jacket (i actually prefer the shade of gray on the jacket why couldnt the leoneeders be dressed in that shade)
#3 - Wonderlands x Showtime
Tumblr media
#ruiturnaround #FREETSUKASAFROMTHEFLAG
mizuki POPPED OFF with these designs (assuming they made them again)
i really love wondershos new look, i just like the other two groups better. nene’s in particular is my favorite (but im biased). i love how professional they look, these new outfits really display this new step that the kids are taking into the world of theatre
so proud for rui for comjng out as nb can he turn around now my artist friends are crying
i adore all of these designs they’re so cute and fun and i really love the new vibe for wondersho as of recently. it seems like colorpale and the fandom are taking them so much more seriously
#2 - Nightcord at 25:00
Tumblr media
KANADE HAS BEEN FREED FROM THE CHAIR (but now miku has it. lol.)
guys. guys the - the symbolism. their dresses progress from pure black to gray showing how they’re slowly healing and bettering themselves and miku’s hair is begining to regain its green and the kids have different flowers that have symbolism that other people know way bettee then mine but MAFUYU’S IVY MOTIF AND ENAS NARCISSUS MOTIF ARE BACK BABY real missed chance to give kanade carnations tho. i dont have much to say but WOW i love the new look for the nightcords and i think they’re stunning. will accept zero hate for these guys they look great
also miku has shoes!!!! yes!!!!
#1 - Vivid BAD SQUAD
Tumblr media
yeah, i was surprised too at how much i like the vbs designs
i like vbs, sure, but they’ve always been the group that has piqued my interest the least. and ive never been super keen on the designs of the characters
but these designs??? i really like them. a lot. it feels like the kids are really coming into their own, with kohane and toya finding their personal styles, akito refining his, and an paying homage to nagi in hers. they’re becoming the young adult creators and musicians that they’re striving to be. i can really see vbs’s growth in their new designs, and i hope that i can grow to really love them and their story : D
(also mikus design is kind of. all over the place. lmao but i kinda love it)

What would your opinions be on an Indiana Jones-styled DuckTales story? Like, Scrooge and Goldie end up working together to fight Nazis who are after a powerful artifact?
thatd be great! i mean ive definitely read fics with a vibe like that and maybe even wrote some?? idk i didnt often make up villains cuz im lazy
since indiana jones is inspired by the original scrooge comics i think its a fun way to tie them together

new dc fan here,, can you help me out a little? like, point me in a direction or recommend smth? thank u,,!
im like the worst person to ask this LOL im watching things in chronological release order explicitly because i had zero knowledge and idea of where to start. ive only read tie in comics. but if you want show and movie recs then id say the DCAU, (specifically batman the animated series, static shock, and justice league/justice league unlimited. stas, the zeta project, and batman beyond are mid to bad imo) and teen titans 2003 are good starting points! avoid the dc extended universe like the plague except for The Suicide Squad and Birds of Prey. if you like goofy comedies, then check out the 1960s batman show and movie! if any of my more comic reading inclined followers want to try and help anon out too thatd be great ^_^

Hi hello!!
Its the anon who sent an ask about sharing the origins of my favourite slang term in portuguese :b it took a few days to send this because this is actually the second version of this text, i wrote the first one directly in your ask box and i poured my heart and soul into it and then tumblr crashed and deleted everything and it was so frustrating i needed a good day or two to get it back together lol
With that said!!
I want to preface this by clarifying that this isnt etymology of the actual natural word (thatd be boring and you can look it up on google, latin origins and whatnot), this is more like an explanation in detail to how the natural word came to be its slang version. Though, Ill have to get a bit into the grammar to try to explain the nuance of this branch of portuguese, nothing too much but yknow, be prepared
Also! I havent found anything online detailing this explanation, and due to the everchanging nature of language and its dependence on word of mouth to evolve, there is no way to credit what im about to say, this is all from my own personal experience as a brasillian and asking around about it to people that use the term.
Okay!! With that out of the way!!
One of the things that differs portuguese and other romance languages from english is that our verb conjugation not only varies with the tense youre speaking, but also with what personal pronoun youre using. As far as i can remember rn, in english the conjugated verb only changes based on pronouns in the case of the verb to be ("is/are" changes based on pronoun) or when its conjugated in the third person singular simple present (when conjugated for he/she/it the verb gains an "s" ex. I sing -> she sings). In portuguese the verb conjugation changes every pronoun and every verb tense. Okay. Cool.
The relevant verb for this is the verb "ser", the portuguese translation of the verb "to be" specifically when it refers to a permanent state of the self or to atribute a quality to the subject. More specifically the relevant conjugation for this is the third person singular present "é".
It can also be used in the second person plural present informally, so its used very very frequently, like, you can imagine by how often you use "is" to talk about someone else on a regular basis yknow. What im saying is that "é" is used a lot okay you get me
So, as youve definetly noticed, "é" uses a diacritic, its no big deal really, portuguese uses a lot of diacritics, more than spanish and french definetly, so when you grow up typing in portuguese you learn to type with them. Its just. A tiny bit awkward you know. Bc like, it takes a second more to type them, and it really throws you off your rhythm yknow? But like its okay, its okay, as any lazy brasillian can tell you, the solution is easy! When we dont want to take the time to type the diacritics we type without them and pick the suggested autocorrect version with the diacritics and it fixes the word!! Great!! Very handy!!!
"But where are you getting at anon?" The rethorical and hypotetical version of you asks, "it seems like it works, everything ties up neatly, and you havent even said what the slang term we're getting to is!!" Well reader im getting there okay, have a little patience, for you see, things do NOT tie up neatly, far from it actually.
Well, you see, preference for the autocorrect is determined by frequency, so if you type without the diacritics and theres more than one word that can only the diferenciated by the diacritics the autocorrect is going to suggest the version of it that is used most often right? Like, that makes sense, great! Cool!! Lucky for us "é" is used very frequently, right? Theres no other word with priority over that, right?? Right..??
Let me introduce you to "e", the portuguese translation of "and". You know where im going with this. I dont think theres any word used more often in any language than its version of "and". Like. Thats not even a question i dont think. Idk idk i dont have any sources its just my gut feeling about this. The point is that "e" is used more often than "é" so the autocorrect thinks you wrote it correctly and probably wont suggest the version with the diacritic for you to correct yourself.
Now. You can surrender yourself and just type "e" and hope the person you sent it to can guess that you meant the verb and not the conjunction. But thats a risk youll have to take, and also its a pretty bad look yknow, people might even think you dont know the difference! That would be terrible!!
So what are lazy brasillian people like me supposed to do?? Waste a second typing the diacritic manually??? Be seen as dumb?? Oh.. woe is us... for we cannot express ourselves clearly and fast... life sure is terrible... ;-;-;-;-
Wow this got very dramatic very fast huh, okay okay, lets de-stress a little from all of that grammar and all of that drama with a fun fact okay? Yeah that sounds fun :b
Are you familiar with the concept of a homonym? Its has multiple meanings, but for the purposes of this fun fact the relevant meaning of it is "when two (or more) words have the same pronunciation but two distinct meanings and spellings". Thats cool right? I think homonyms are really fun! But also im a nerd so my definition of fun is... questionable... but regardless!! We talked a bit about diacritics right? Did you know that the portuguese word for diacritic ("acento") has a homonym? Yep! And it means seat ("assento")!! Isnt that so cool?? Like when talking to someone you can only rely on context to know if theyre talking about a funny little symbol or about a bench!! Very cool yep yep :b
Yes, that fun fact helped de-stress from my being-too-lazy-to-type-a-diacritic predicament, i feel better now. You know what makes me feel even better? The fact that i tricked you!! Muahahaha!! That fun fact was just a ploy!! A writing device to make the explanation seem engaging while also giving you relevant information!! Yess!! You fell for my trickss!!! >:3
Okay okay, ill explain, i swear this is getting to the end okay itll be just a little bit longer if youll indulge me.
The trouble we, hypothetical lazy brasillians, had is the following: we need to find a faster way to type "é" in such a way that differs it from "e" and leaves it clear the word and pronunciation is different.
Heres something to think about: "é" is composed of "e" + the diacritic ´, or... heheh... if we want to be funny with it, "é" is composed of "e" + the seat ´. See what i did there? Heheh i used the homonym!! I told you it was fun!! Oh, if only we could just put the "e" in a little chair... thatd be funny and also itd indicate the diacritic... but alas... there is no way to simply draw what you type... and no letter could represent a chair... or... could they..???
Heres a solution: have you ever seen those little middle school jokes about how "h" kinda looks like a chair from the side? No?? Well it doesnt matter, but you see what im about to say right? Thats the solution!! Thats what we'll do!! We'll just type the "e" with a little chair beside it!! Problem solved!!!
Heres my favourite typing slang term in portuguese: "eh"
I just love it so much, its so simple yet so whimsical yknow?? Everytime ive asked someone why we started typing "é" like "eh" the only reason anyone i asked could find is because it has a little chair!!! And okay theres no way of being sure this was the original thought process since the evolution of "eh" isnt documented anywhere i could find since its very informal speech. But like!! Its such a sweet explanation that even if isnt the original intent i still choose to believe it is yknow??
I love my little word that comes with a chair!! I love the little in-jokes that language ends up incorporating into itself as it evolves!! I love how silly it is and how prople just thought "oh thats cute and also convenient" and just adopted it into their speech patterns!! God linguistics makes me want to cry from happiness sometimes!!! *slaps the roof of language* this bad boy can fit so much love and care and sillyness and community in it!!
Anyways yeah thats it, thank you for indulging me and for reading all of this, i know its a lot lmao. Your slang project is genuinelly so cool and i saw everyone sharing their little manneirisms and regional variations and it made me so so so happy!!! I hope you enjoyed reading this as much as i enjoyed writing it :D and i hope you have a great timezone wherever you are <3
wow anon thanks !!!! thats a very cool story for the origins of a slang. i love that languages are ever changing in meaning and form. sorry that you had to retype this again but i am grateful you did.
its really fun to learn about the nitty gritty details of different languages and the cultural significance at which they come from. i dont think it would have been possible for me to learn the origins of eh without you sharing it with me !
i started the project cause i was learning spanish and remembered that online messaging can be a completely different world than what we learn on textbooks.
languages are symbolic of how different and varied human beings are and thats why i love learning about it. thanks again for sharing this with me and i hope you enjoy your day !

when i finish the gk anime and then the manga i wanna do a little historical writeup on it cuz i think itd be fun to point out any small inaccuracies in it granted this would take a shit loadof research but yknow historys my fav subject (Also if anyone has any like really good and long ainu centered resources thatd be great even when i search up terms said in the series itself i get only like barebones wikipedia links). Also wanna analyze the nature motifs in it and how they tie into the characters though id have to read the manga for that too but i already have some ideas on some symbolism happening. Also wanna research the weapons shown just cuz that shit is cool just a little guns and explosions and knives treat for me. Also wanna actually just analyze the characters themselves and their relationships with others particularly i am most interested in doing that for asirpa ogata and tsurumi soooooo

hello! so, for the thing i’m writing, i’m going to be describing jimmy’s ghostly form in some detail. nothing too complex— a little vaguely, if anything. can you give me a quick rundown of what he looks like? like, what he’s wearing and all? and if you could say which leg is missing too, thatd be great. thanks!
oooh okay!
so there are two options here! it just depends on how very exactly how jimmy died which isn’t decided, so you can choose what one you would rather!
if jimmy died in hospital and never started a recovery, and was pretty sick real soon after his leg amputation, then he would be wearing something like this:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
if he died after some sort of “recovery” (i would assume the doctors thought he was okay but his health had a sudden downfall and it was a pretty quick death), then he would be wearing this:
Tumblr media
(the main outfit is blue, with a white undershirt and a bright red tie)
this was issued to soldiers who were in recovery, and apparently the outfits were called “Hospital Blues” !
i would say his left leg is missing from the knee down (he has his knee, but there’s very little leg below that), and his face + hands would have intense yellow/purple discolouration in tiny spots

I know you didn’t ask for it but- BOTW MONSTERS: RANKED BY HOW HOT THEY ARE,,,,
i do fuck all in the days lemme tell ya
ill admit i havent done EVERY enemy but like. i do enjoy making these posts so who knows, i might actually rank everything sooner or later 🤷‍♀️
,,,,, and if u want a specific ranking of botw/aoc stuff lmk 👀
Tumblr media
ahh the ol reliable. the classic bokoblin. he is just a little lad! unfortunately they’re genuinely kind of ugly??? and the idk the singular horn in the middle aint a good look. i see cute comics abt these guys being domestic and thats adorable but also giving them so much leeway bc they’re really Not that cute. not sure what the loincloth is hiding and im not sure i wanna know anyway. 3/10 really kind of. not good. 
Tumblr media
slightly bigger loincloth only means slightly bigger things to hide :( i rlly hate these guys noses and whatever the fuck toenails they have why do they have toenails?????? s’bad. the thing is tho they have the proportions of a potentially attractive gerudo which is probably what takes the edge off the general vibes of... u know... being an abomination. its also only JUST occured to me as im writing that these guys r just evolved bokoblins so. glow up i guess. 6/10 what that tongue do
Tumblr media
ok bypassing whatever the fuck rule 34 has done to these guys, i actually dig them. i find the huge fat ones way cuter than the lil bug eyed ones. in their case theres rlly no, like... hotness about them. its just cute. i think they’re cute. any monster that is cute and also doubles up as a bed gets my vote 7/10 get urself a fella as flexible as these guys 
Tumblr media
u know what, im gonna say it, these guys r actually kinda hot. proportions arent super bad, the face aint bad and generally they have good vibes. aside from, u know, when they’re tryna shank u. id say one of the most bearable monsters to have to look at. 8/10 im not a scalie
Tumblr media
??????????? idk what to say. u could tie these little shits to like swingball poles and beat them with rackets thatd b good. aside from that these guys have like no redeeming qualities. they’re a pain in the ass and not in a good way. 3/10 cute but like. is it worth it?
Tumblr media
i mean,,,,,,,, someones probably into it. i dont like these guys for a lot of reason and surprisingly the thing that gets me is the fucking hair why does it have that hair its like he-man just went straight over the top with an electric razor its not a good look!!! stop trying to make it work! it wont! and again with the loincloth??? im not into it. the only thing i like abt these guys is the lil waistcoats. they have some amount of decency (but the implications it makes are Not Good). uh. 2/10. barely.
Tumblr media
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
,,,,,9/10. but if you see a lynel up close like that chances are you died about half a minute ago
Tumblr media
again. ??? i dont rlly like. i mean. im digging the top heavy proportions? its got the same body type as kass so like. 4/10. bit plain around the features but what can u do. i dont understand how but the igneo taluses are like. sexier 
Tumblr media
UGHGHHH I FUCKING HATE THESE THINGS okay okay okay like these motherfuckers lure u in by being quite cute and dancin around and then u get a look at their faces and its like fucking JESUS and its even WORSE when you see under their cloak and they have no necks????? and like????? they do that gay little fucking dance that pisses me off???? they’re wearing hoods that give the ILLUSION that they have necks and im im fumin ok i HATE it i hate it i have been betrayed and i will NEVER FORGET ABOUT IT UGHGHGHG I HATE THESE CUNTS -10000000000000000000000000000000000/10 die
Tumblr media
hhhhh i just dont like em. theyre too annoying to be cute now. and whats gonna happen if i squeeze one? is like. water gonna come out? r they just gonna deflate? 4/10 tentacles are not hyrules forte it seems ://
Tumblr media
trust kohga to send the twinks out on the front line. seriously. they’re not bad tho? kinda small and underwhelming :((( tho i give extra points for the good crazy laugh we love a good manic cackle 6/10 they dont really count as monsters but ah well where else am i gonna put em
Tumblr media
now THATS what im talkin about babeyyyyy we love the muscles,,,,, the posture,,, the stride,,, we love it when u fuck up stealth and a torrential downpour of these motherfuckers come down to beat ur ass,,,,, 9/10 its raining men 😎
Tumblr media
u know. u dont rlly like. get a good view of these guys when ur balls deep in a battle with them, but the more i get like closer looks at them the more i go ???? like idk. everything about them looks backwards and wrong. but as far as backwards and wrong goes its not a bad look and the boss theme is a banger so 4/10 maybe dont jump on my ass every time i step one foot onto the desert :/
Tumblr media
i just. i dont dig it. idk why. aside from the fact they’re a monumental pain in my ass, and now everytime i hear a beep even slightly resembling a guardian i shit my pants, but. idk??? as far as robots go its not like. terrible. they’re like the milfs of robots. the milves, if u will. a rilf. except i wouldnt. so its more like riwlf. but even that leaves too much up to interpretation so im just gonna call em a cunt and go. 4/10 leg game strong
Tumblr media
here we are,,, the big boys,,,, waterblight isnt too bad i will admit, but the spear hand is both annoying and mildly inconvenient. its got a rlly big chest but rlly thin arms?? also not sure how i feel abt the strap on beard but oh well its not like ganons got taste. 5/10 kind of average for a blight i think
Tumblr media
a hefty motherfucker. a chunk of a lad. big large. the fact this is like one of the easiest blights makes it more forgiveable to me but like whatever its got going on with the 80s hair needs 2 be sorted out. i like its moves but it doesnt hang upside down like waterblight :((( 5/10 calm down kate bush
Tumblr media
ok who doesnt like gun arms. and a gun back. this things like fuckin megatron. the whole face plate thing doesnt look bad either. honestly its kind of a look? but its dickheadery in aoc makes me wanna set shit on fire so :// 6/10 hot but will not leave u alone 😔
Tumblr media
ok this one is by FAR the sexiest of all the blights. i just cant explain it. i like guys with bad posture. i had an easy time beating it but apparently its given other people a lot of grief and that makes it 10x more sexy to me lmaooo. also it can clone itself which is like. thats a win. 8/10 ganon spilt all the sexy juice into this one
Tumblr media
ok i didnt realise how many arms this motherfucker has and the whole hairline behind the ears thing is not a great look. especially w the beard. in fact the longer i look at it the less sexy it becomes tbh. 3/10 they tried to make arachnophobia sexy and it didnt work
Tumblr media
10/10 i will be taking questions in my inbox but i wont be taking constructive criticism and you cant make me

hey there, u get a lot of questions abt drawing but i wanted to ask for some advice on writing? im not naturally a great writer i am Horrible with words but i have a story ive been trying to put into a webcomic for almost a year now and every time i try to sit down and write it feels flat or unnatural or not conveying at all what i want it to say. do you have any advice for that? (also i am autistic and communication is just generally hard for me so i wanted to ask a Fellow Autist cause like maybe thatd make more sense to me lol)
hmmmm ! it probably just needs more time in the oven. stbu took 3 years of development before i figured out what i was trying to say, and i’ve been working on a second webcomic on the side for almost 3 years now that i’m only JUST NOW even SORT OF close to figuring out what i’m trying to say with. idk if you’re like me but writing to me is this painful and arduous process of just pacing back and forth until your head explodes... i have to trudge through a lot of horse shit to get anywhere good. writing is just rewriting and rewriting and rewriting and rewriting something until you are crazy but you have something half decent in front of you.
here’s my simple advice thats been helping me lately:
1. go back to your webcomic concept. what about it is sparking passion in you? try to follow that thread- go with ideas that make you feel something.
2. go back to your inspirations- music, media, whatever you consider a storytelling pillar. think relentlessly about what makes it strike a chord with you and try to pick apart what about the structure does that
3. make a thesis statement for what you’re trying to say and keep it relevant to your story in every scene. ask yourself constantly, how does this scene relate to the core of this story? how does this decision, how does this action tie back to the core of what i want to say? if you dont know what youre trying to say, figure that out first! it will define absolutely everything that follows. this thread helps too
OH SHIT ONE MORE THING USE MIRO.COM. miro is like a sticky note board where you can put all your thoughts and lay them out visually and it is quintessential to me. you can lay out ideas without it getting extremely lost in your documents
hope this helped a little!

Im happy everyone's enjoying protective caleb, its been something on my mind for awhile... and now i need my fix lol
Can i request hcs of protective caleb and the survivor getting a wild west skin, matching caleb but it still suits them, it has a sweet touch and makes it look like caleb has a little sidekick 💖. What would caleb think, heck what would the others think thatd be cute.
I hope these requests are enjoyable to write 😳 its just so cuuute
-💖
They're super fun to write!! Besides, friendly Caleb is a nice change of pace from the ones I have in game lol <3
Protective Deathslinger - 4
271 words
If Caleb wasn't embarrassing enough for his favorite survivor, their new outfit from the Entity would certainly make it so. It gives him all the more reason to be around them and act as if they're his second-in-command, just without a gun. They kind of like having something to match with him even if the other survivors tease them about it.
Steve is the main culprit, though he's no one to talk about silly outfits. He'll make a joke about them being the real killer, which Caleb will take as an insult and use to prove that he's not one to be taken lightly. That might be the only reason for him to go after Steve in particular the next time he sees him.
Whoever is closest with the survivor would find it kind of cute that they match their killer-friend, and they're glad that the Entity thought so as well. The two of them look less out of place together and more in sync, even though the clothes aren't as comfortable as the survivor would like them to be. Still, they're glad that they have something else to remind them of Caleb when they aren't around him in a trial or at the campfire. It gives them a bit more confidence.
Having a western-themed outfit would also give Caleb an excuse to put some of his own accessories on them, like tassels he never wears or an old bolo tie he'll gift them. "See, you look great!" he'd encourage them, and they'll go along with it for his sake even when it's tacky. If Caleb is happy, they are too.

This concept is a bit overcomplicated so I very highly doubt nintendo would or is doing this but-
At the end of Breath of the Wild Ruta has stopped working and Link and Zelda are going to investigate it. In the DLC the Great Platuea holds a dungeon underneath that is basically one giant locking mechanism, solving the puzzles and fitting a rod in a slot is the key.
So what if, in botw 2, the Divine Beasts stopped working because there isnt a Champions spirit to power them anymore? The Champions descendants then or even new ones whatever, would have to be accepted and enter the Divine Beasts with you, piloting it to a new location and some part of them acting as a key to enter a dungeon. Like Rudanis tail fits into a lock or Naboris has the pathway through it neck so you walk through that through its head and you're in a dungeon.
I just think thatd be a neat way to tie in the old game and connect the overworld we already know to possible underground dungeons we'll have no idea about.

Pink Diamond: A Character Study
So in Steven Universe it never explicitly states what happens between Pink Diamond and her original pearl to separate them but we can assume that they had some kind of "inappropriate" relationship
Tumblr media
We see in some of the flashbacks that Steven has that Pink Diamond doesn't just want her pearl to entertain her, she also wants to entertain her Pearl
This isn't so unusual if you consider Pink's relationship to the other diamonds; They talk fondly about how Pink would tell jokes, dance, and sing them songs despite being a diamond herself
Tumblr media
The Lapis Lazulis in another episode mock Lapis by saying, "you want us to sing and dance like Pearls?" Which implies that entertainment is reserved for certain gems
From Pink's perspective it must be a little confusing being told her entertainment is something they love but not something she cant do freely
The diamonds also didn't take Pink seriously.
Tumblr media
We know that pink had a problem controlling herself. In Volleyball, we learned that Pink had violent outbursts when she didn't get what she wanted. We Also see Pink smashing a mirror when she was denied a colony and we know that Pink's been locked up on multiple occasions for her disruptive behaviour
It is possible that her Pearl was taken away because 1) She did not act professionally around her Pearl or 2) The Diamonds were angry at her and aware that she had a fond relationship with her Pearl so they took her away as punishment for Pink's shenanigans
It was likely a combination of the two where she was taken away to teach Pink a lesson and also in hope that around new company she might become more mature
Tumblr media
Tumblr media
She wasn't only given a new Pearl, but also a Spinal. It's clear that by giving her a compliant Pearl and a Spinel for entertainment, that the goal was for Pink to become more focused without depriving her of what they thought she wanted.
We were all mortified that Pink left Spinel like that but Spinel was, in essence, a replacement for Pink's dead/imprisoned friend so its understandably hard for Pink to be around her
Because Pearl has never experienced one of Pink's tantrums we can assume that the punishment made her a little more secretive and emotionally reserved as well
Pink's calmer attitude may be why she was given a colony. It was also likely that Blue and Yellow felt a little bad for her after losing her Pearl.
Pink wasn't given a colony until after these changes were made and we saw her personality shift significantly.
Tumblr media
In the Diamond day episodes, blue talks about how things used to be when they were all close. The way she says it implies that they stopped hanging out together long before Pink left homeworld
Probably there was tension between White and Pink that drove them all apart
Tumblr media
Which brings us to Pink's final chapter
Earth was something Pink always wanted but it's not what she expected. She doesnt have any friends by her side and she isnt permitted to explore or do anythng exciting
Shes sees an opportunity for escape and freedom and she takes it because there isn't anything really tying her to Home World or the Diamonds anymore
I believe that she truly thought others wanted the same thing and that she wanted freedom for everyone
But she was undeniably manipulative and flawed
She lied to Home World and to the Crystal Gems. She couldn't lie to pearl about most things because Pearl was constantly by her side. She kept what she could from her and she took advantage of the fact that Pearl had feelings for her.
I dont believe that Pink was a bad person at heart but I think that she had little regard for those around her.
When she got angry she didn't think about how she might end up hurting Vollyball
When she acted out she didnt think that Vollyball might suffer the consequences
When she disrupted events she didnt think about how Blue and Yellow would get in trouble along side her
When she left Spinel she probably didnt think thatd she'd be there for all eternity
When she faked her shattering she didnt consider that the Diamonds would take their anger out on the Earth or that they would mourn her for centuries
When she flirted with Pearl she didnt think about how emotionally invested Pearl would become
When she had Steven she didnt think about the fact that he would have to tie up all her loose ends
She did a lot of good and she did them for good reasons but she chose not to consider how her actions could impact others
I love Steven Universe because there are no villains, just complex and flawed characters who make mistakes. Pink wasnt good or bad. She caused some really terrible things to happen and some really great things to happen but neither cancels the other out

hi maria if u have the inspiration and the time would u perhaps consider writing something where newt thinks they r actual rivals but hermann’s just into the homoeroticism of a rivals to lovers Situation? i just think thatd be a fun time :-) xoxo, Not AJ
hehe hello aj........hope u enjoy. shout-out to twitter for helping me w magazine names lol. this also gives me a great opportunity to write some classic Hermann Screwing With Newt. not enough of that content.
-------------------------
“I read your interview,” Hermann says.
Newt glances up from his workbench: Hermann is standing in front of him, one hand wrapped around the handle of his cane, the other brandishing a brightly-colored magazine at Newt. Newt sets down his hacksaw and shoves up his goggles (oversized, to allow space for his glasses) to properly squint at Hermann. “What?”
“Your interview in Bio,” Hermann says. He holds up the magazine a little higher, and, sure enough, Newt catches sight of a tiny, saturated photograph of himself smiling awkwardly at the top of the page, the Meet Dr. Newton Geiszler, The World’s Top-Leading Expert in K-Biology in bold purple capitals next to it. Hermann has the faintest hint of a smirk on his face. “I can’t believe you didn’t tell me they were featuring you. A two-page spread, at that.”
Blushing, Newt snatches away the magazine. “That’s because it’s trash, and I only did it for the money,” he says. The photo they used of him turned out terrible, too, now that he’s getting a closer look at it--the stylist they had on hand spiked Newt’s hair up with a stupid amount of hair gel and made him take off his tie, and they posed him with his arms crossed in a super corny fake lab set. Smoking beakers and everything. Like Newt’s a baby-cheeked mad scientist. “All they did was ask me about my personal life. Not a single question about my research. Who’s gonna give a shit about that?”
“Oh, I don’t know,” Hermann says. “I imagine it’s rather humanizing to know the fate of the world partially rests in the hands of--” A mock-thoughtful expression crosses his face, like he hasn’t committed the entire article to memory already, the jackass. “--someone who favors boxers over briefs.”
“Yeah, well, I wasn’t gonna tell thousands of people I go commando, was I?”
“Or, if he was a type of potato,” Hermann says, like he didn’t hear him, “would be ‘tater-tots’. I can’t believe that’s a question they asked you.”
“Ha, ha,” Newt deadpans. “Glad you’re having fun. You done yet?”
“Almost,” Hermann says, gleefully. He hands Newt the magazine and taps a section he’s circled, neatly, in yellow highlighter. Newt snatches it away. “I quite enjoyed the bit where you talk about me.”
Hermann, my partner--research partner, I mean, not--uh--total genius, keeps me on my feet, Newt said, because they’d asked Newt about his personal relationships after interrogating him about his old band for twenty minutes, and, seeing as Newt has no friends, and hasn’t had a steady boyfriend in seven months, Hermann (who is sort-of kind-of both) was the first and only person who sprang to mind. I really admire the guy, even if he can be a total pain in the ass sometimes. He’s not afraid to tell me when I’m wrong. I’m not afraid to tell him when he’s wrong. It’s like--we’re not really friends, more scientific rivals.
The article didn’t edit out anything, of course. Hearing it over now makes Newt cringe in mortification. Scientific rivals--yeesh. He may as well have said half their arguments end with Hermann’s tongue down Newt’s throat.
“Scientific rivals,” Hermann echoes, taking the magazine back. “That’s how you see us.”
He sounds way too amused for Newt’s liking, so Newt snaps his goggles back into place, pulls on a fresh rubber glove, and sticks his hand into the kaiju spleen on his bench with a wet squish (relishing in Hermann’s wince) before answering. “We are scientific rivals. What else was I supposed to call us? Frenemies-for-life? Lab partners with benefits?”
Hermann hums noncommittally.
Newt pulls his hand from the spleen. He frowns. “You don’t think we’re rivals?”
“‘Rivals’ implies that we’re on--ah--equal footing,” Hermann says. “Statistically speaking, Newton--I do tend to win more arguments.” His smug little smile from earlier returns. “Thirty-seven percent more, to be precise.”
“Of course you’ve calculated that,” Newt says. Probably up there on his chalkboard crammed in the corner of all his Breach data. Tally: Newt, 3061, Hermann, 4000....something. Newt’s a biologist, man, he doesn’t care about this shit. “So, what, if you don’t actually think we’re,” he pitches his voice into his Hermann Impression, “intellectual equals, you just like arguing for shits and giggles?”
“Now, I never said I don’t consider you an equal,” Hermann scoffs. A touch condescendingly. Oh, God, he’s probably adding this conversation to his tally the second they’re done--Newt’s jumping to conclusions or tossing out ridiculous hypotheses with unsubstantiated data, or whatever cards Hermann likes to play to shut him up. June 5, 2024: Swiftly explained to Newton that he’s not beneath me, how ridiculous of him to think otherwise. “Or that I don’t--in the broad sense of the term--consider you a rival. Merely that I’m usually right.”
Newt sticks his tongue out.
“Though you’re spot-on about arguing,” Hermann says.
Newt stops sticking his tongue out. “What?” he says.
“You’re spot-on,” Hermann repeats. The tips of his sticky-out ears go pink. “I enjoy arguing with you, and having you consider me your rival. It’s--” He clears his throat. “Stimulating.”
The way Hermann says the word makes it very clear that it’s not in the intellectual sense. More in the clothing-on-the-lab-floor-getting-off-on-getting-pissed-off sense. “Stimulating?”
“And a touch romantic,” Hermann confesses. “The cliche of it all, I mean.” He sounds a bit dreamy when he adds “Rivals.”
Hermann Gottlieb, self-professed dealer of cold, mathematical facts only, scorner of sentimentality in all forms, standing in front of Newt and implying they have a forbidden romance right out of some dimestore bodice-ripper. Newt should’ve known it was all an act from the very beginning: Hermann hand-wrote him letters in the twenty-first century instead of just copying and pasting his email from the MIT faculty page like any normal person. “You drama-loving bitch,” Newt says, grinning. “I feel like I should be offended.”
Hermann’s ears have gone fully red. “I know you enjoy it too.”
“Uh-huh,” Newt says. He tosses both filthy gloves to his bench (enjoying Hermann’s second disgusted wince of the day), wipes his hands off on his corduroys, then pulls his goggles off all the way. “C’mon, I want you to look over my weekly report before I send it off to Pentecost. You can tell me how bad it is and then we can make out.”
“That sounds nice,” Hermann says, and follows him happily to his desk.

ok ACTUAL good omens au this time bc the tiniest push from @seasoning-city is apparently all the excuse i need to throw myself into this lmao 
mob as adam
serizawa as aziraphale
reigen as crowley
touichirou as gabriel
jodo as beelzebub
there’s A Lot here actually the rest is going under a read more jhgfdsf
mogami as hastur (and ligur)
shimazaki as death
minegishi as famine
hatori as pollution
shibata as war
kurosaki as agnes nutter
mezato as anathema
tome as newt
shou as pepper
ritsu as wensleydale
teru as brian
dimple as dog
onigawara as warlock
honestly i have no idea who shadwell and tracy would be
god and satan would probably just stay as god and satan u no
also minor human characters like the nuns and stuff. unless there’s like an extremely obvious parallel im missing but they get to stay
and uhhh i think thats it for character stuff honestly and i feel like the plot would go relatively the same??
OH I FORGOT serizawa’s umbrella instead of the flaming sword
also damn. i just remembered crowley’s bentley. can reigen even drive
OK OK so reigen wouldn’t be a one to one copy of crowley bc like gfdsdfg can you imagine BUT LIKE he’d def have the same rep in hell (he’s got that same ‘everybody fucking hates him’ energy among the psychic community that crowley does among the demons) & he would absolutely coast by on lying to his superiors and never do Any Fuckin Work (letting other people do his job & taking credit 👀). also he is 100% the type of person to confidently fuck up a baby switch
anyways i just thought of reigen with baby mob and ooughfhufhg I’m Soft
serizawa obvi also isn’t Exactly like aziraphale but he would have a similar hardship in defecting from his superiors and absolutely has that kind of initial blind following & belief in them that slowly starts to dwindle when reigen convinces him more. also he just acts out on his own anyway like giving away the flaming sword vs protecting reigen from touichirou’s attack, and they both also have those internal suspicions of the great plans™ u no
also im thinking that giving away the umbrella (which ik isnt v biblical™ but like bear w me lol) instead of the flaming sword to protect the humans kinda shows serizawa’s protectiveness and how Even More Unlike the rest of heaven he is bc he doesn’t even get a weapon in the first place. also could tie in to the umbrella being his room and like...idk. touichirou giving it to him like ‘it’s a piece of heaven’ but seri still giving it away bc he knows how badly the humans need protection. also don’t ask me how this would fit in to war getting it bc i just thought the umbrella = sword thing would be cool lmao
actually a lot of these things i didn’t put much thought into other than ‘thatd be funny lol’ like onigawara as warlock kjhghj but these shows are both SILLEY so im allowed to do what i want
honestly i just put mezato as anathema bc mezato telling mob what to say for his speech and anathema telling adam abt the evils™ of the world kind of reminded me of each other lmao
also idk how to feel abt The Them like for wtvr reason i feel like the awakening lab kids would fit them much more but also like....where would i put the boys........argh idk
and god there’s a lot more i could go into with this esp w reigen & serizawa’s relationship and how they act as a demon & angel respectively and i can feel my writing itch freaking tf out but its like 1am. i have to Do Shit tomorrow
also i havent read good omens or the mp100 manga and i feel like it’d be incredibly disingenuous for me to try and properly write this out fully w/out doing so, as much as i Desperately want to, so instead you get wtvr This is sdfghjk
also idk how to end this post but like if you read through all that thank you lmao pls indulge in this au w me

cdda:
so. today i honked a car horn, cuz zombies keep spawni g on my property (big ol farm im hopefully gonna start building walls arounf soon) bc i have wandering spawns n such on (this also means my two remaining horses and two dogs are all cooped up in yhe chicjen coop so that zombies will stop truing yo fight them)
so an6way. i honk yhe horn yo get zombies to spawn, tjinking yeah. lets kinda clear out this area a little (iirc once you kill enough zonbies in an area it stays empty).
next day: like five shitheads spawn inside my greenhouse, and destroy basically every planter in there and most of the greenhouse itself!!! ugh. i clear up the wreckage and.... leave most of it sitting there. maybe ill rebuild at some point? i also move my mostly-intact electric car (with solar panels! :) ) far away from my property, that way it doesnt get roughed up in any scuffles
next day: jesus fuck. i swear two hordes got spawned in different parts of my property. it was. not a hard fight at all, actually (linsey has hells of dodge skill, is fast, and has a cavalry sabre). i had to make like three seperate burn piles, because my corpse/burn pit filled up before i had even a quarter of em in there. so fhat was fun. i didnt even really loot much ofd the bodies, iirc there was basiclaly nothing of interest unless i wanted to clean blood and guts off leather pants to be cut up for raw materials. they ddid almost tear apart like. my backpack AND my utility vest tho, so... was lucky i managed to get those off before they got torn up irreparably.
current plan is to get palisades around mpst of the property (logs are easy, if time-consuming, to get. wire to tie em together with has mostly been from chain-link fences from the nearby town). that... hasnt really started yet, but i5s ginna be a multi-week project, id not more, to actually get all that set up (each one will need about 1/4 - 1/2 of a tree, and i will need.... idk really, but probably over a hundred palisade walls). maybe itd help to get some help, but the only humans ive seen were bandits outside the mansion i was holed up in, anx they... didnt really seem friendly (also last time i went near bandits it took me ~15 quick saves to actually live theu it. so.... fuck guns btw). so. all on my own, lol... might do some packed earth in a few places? that needs a wood frame under the dirt, tho. oooo what if i placed one od those every like 5-10 spaces, so my entire wall doesnt go up if it catches on fire? good idea good idea...
on the bright side, i do have a forge and such set up. i dont have an anvil or like... any tools for it but a hammer, but. we're getting there, lol. need to head into town sometime and get a frame from somewhere (probably cutting up another car wreck lol). need to find a hack-saw, would make that a lot easier... no luck finding such a saw thus far tho. hardware store was useless; some fertilizer, some concrete, not much else. push comes to shove maybe i can make one once i get the forge completely ready? still need an anvil and a swage/die set.
((also apparently taking apart a split rail fence gives you 1000 nails? thats... probably a bug.))
i kind of wanna burn that mansion down. gotta make sure its picked clean first, though. not really a *reason* to burn it down, even, hell whoever owned it probably saved my fuck8n life considering my other options i had at the time (none, basically). not to mention the sword i found in it thats prolly saved my life a half-dozen times. but... i still kind of want to burn it down? maybe i can burn eown that bandit camp instead. that DOES sound pretty great. buuuut then theyll probably come kill me. so. maybe ilk just burn down the mansion lmao.
really wish i could find a decent sidearm somewhere. well. i mean i HAVE one, but its chambered in the one pistol ammo i dont have. so im kind of carrying around a flintlock pistol eberywhere i go (what tje fuck was the up with the dude who owned that mansion? some kind of obsession with history or something? thatd explain the stone axr and the clay pots, too... and the swords...)
Oh! also a few days (weeks? idk) ago I killed one of the horses that were on this property. I then... spent a solid 2-3 full days frantically trying to preserve all of its meat before it rotted. I think I got around 2/3s of it, though a lot of that is smoked. So... I’m gonna be eating smoked horse meat for the next, like. 3 weeks, as much as I can. Before all of THAT rots. I think I’ll be able to ma- wait, fuck. There’s like. 20 lb of sausage that’s on the same kind of cloooooock... well. I mean I guess at least I’ll be the only fat survivor? Kind of a shame I can’t keep this good any longer, though. (oo, maybe I should dig a root cellar? I mean, it’s not really “warm” here this kind of year, but like. Root cellars keep things even cooler, I think? Maybe I could do that, idk. I haven’t really looked at a thermometer in a few weeks lol)
