i actually don't think it would've made sense for martyn to get the boogey task.
it was literally.. a boogey task. you know, the mechanic where greens and yellows were forced to kill against their wills? because it wasn't actually a zombie apocalypse, remember. not to mention it would've completely destroyed the enter gimmick of the typical red life tasks, which are meant to be fun creative new ways of hurting/killing. also, I think red tasks are set up the way they are in part to increase the survivability of red names, which was super important this session seeing as there was only one left.
also, we all saw how low gem got leading that army through several kills. she died eventually, and even if it was scar killing her accidentally, she was so low at that point it was guaranteed she was going to die for that task. if that was martyn, he wouldn't have even been able to go get a new red task and get some hearts back you know?
"martyn didn't get to do anything because of it!" that was also his choice though! he could've said hey, you guys are slaughtering people? awesome let me tag along. instead he made the decision to stay far away from that because he was very concerned about the way that was going. he purposefully excluded himself from that; there was no stipulation in the book saying "red names can't be involved or help you kill people". I'm not sure if martyn thought that was the case, but it certainly wasn't
idk, I think the fact that it was referred to as "the zombie apocalypse" all session made people forget they weren't actually zombies. they were boogeymen. that distinction matters a LOT

this is the information that we had about D dog. that's the info on her page (put through a translator, but its accurate) regarding how she is with other animals, and during the interview reactivity was only mentioned as a possibility not as a known fact about this dog. only dog? no problem. no cats? even less of a problem. potential for reactivity? sure. it can happen with any dog. known aggression towards other dogs? why the hell are you waiting for people to apply and go through a fucking interview before letting them know a week later that they're not fit for this dog and that that's the reason why. all that does is give people false hopes and upset that could be avoided by clear, direct, honest communication of a dog's issues/challenges. i heard about the specific language/way of wording things shelters and rescues use but i had hoped it wouldnt be a universal thing, at least not something i'd experience myself. turns out i was wrong!
maybe im being immature and unfair to these people, they probably dont all have the same amount of knowledge of the dogs and communicating all that inbetween volunteers/workers/and us can be difficult. but im angry and im allowed to express that ffs.

💌 good morning
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE! theo you are genuinely one of my favourite people in the whole world do u know how cool you have to be for someone to say that to you when you've never actually met and you live on the complete other side of the EARTH. you're just really cool and i mean that in the most objective way possible like i love your attitude i love your aesthetic i love your mannerisms i am at any given point giving you heart eyes. i love that i can drunk call you and i love after all this time you're still one of the (few) people i regularly want to talk to in the height of drunken fondness. i love sharing tbos with you and getting nobodies hero back in return it feels like we're parents whose kids are in the same class that talk on the playground waiting to pick them up. i love love love how you write and the personality that's so distinctive in your writing. i could probably pick one of your stories out of a line up because of it tbh. you just have such an amazing perspective of the world and you have so much love to give and it's not through naivety or denial it's because you've genuinely looked at bad situations and gone 'there is love in the world despite this'. you inspire me to be a better person.

no mattter how hard i try and how many tries i give I can never really get into skyrim.
coming off the heels of morrowind and oblivion it feels like a step down in quality in a lot of areas. Like in comparison to oblivion it feels like it took a hit to the writing, and with morrowind it feels like it took a hit to exploration and running around because while the world is def bigger it just doesn't feel like it because everything feels more quick to get to (and this excludes fast travels).
Too much of the quests in skyrim feels a lot more about chasing instant gratification and thats probably my biggest beef. Especially since it takes no effort to become a werewolf and its so instantly OP.

Tw death
The more I learn about trauma, the more I realize just being aware of certain realistic possibilities or facts is sometimes traumatic for people. I guess I always had this misconception that 1) everyone was aware of the same things that I am all of the time and 2) that trauma is like an over reaction from your brain that can be healed and reasoned with. But it's not. How many people actually realize that they will die, that they don't know when, that their friends and loved ones will die too, potentially before them, and that none of this is inside their control? How many people think about that? And how *real* is that for them? I grew up being constantly reminded that I could die young, that I would die, that my parents would die before me. Death was a reality I was very aware of but never able to come to terms with. And I don't think that can be healed because its real. I don't know how real any of this stuff even is to everyone else. I wonder if the people around me think about death how I do, as a certainty, or if they think about it like something that only happens to other people. You tend to think that before something traumatic happens- that those traumatic things only happen to other people. I don't think that anymore. I haven't for a long time.

A fun fact of eddie and jason partening up is that means jason could tecnically make the all blades appear any moment he wants. (Eddie's devil power DO qualify as ' presence of evil ' , the less i think about how apparently is a metagene awakened that just so happens to work like devil powers or/and contract influence the better, me sure there was something planned for that)
Also they both would do the meditation thing.
Rose: great, now there's two yoga idiots.
And I personally like to limit Jason perception of future/past etc to just be able to do so in response to time alterations, as it makes more sense in my head, but rose does have some kind of precognition in figthing in some verses so it would be pretty funny to see eddie keeping up (he has portals, he will be fine)
I also a sucker for human eddie is more capable than demon eddie, actually, with enough self confidence he could probably build a way to make portals with his staff, and he can fly with that thing!! Mix magic with tecnology baby, surely there's no way that can go wrong!
Me having cute outlaws ideas, don't mind me

Owen's being held down to the ground in front of Tred's ruler because they won't believe that he's telling the truth/doesn't have ulterior motives & isn't [fully] severing the empire and they're about to cut off his head or something similar but his not-phone thing goes off and they make him answer it and it's. [kid I never named] who's like "hey I'm at your house for our study session but you're not answering the door" and Owen's like ".....I'm not home" <- several galaxies away
