#will wood ur MIND

[ghouljams]

Ballet Au but the performance is just about Reader and König’s alternate fae au selves.

Oh my god, YES!! Hold on how do I do this...

You brush your hands down the long chiffon of your skirt, fingers plucking at the little tie around your waist. Honestly you're not the biggest fan of these sorts of heavily romantic ballets. You suppose the horror bits are OK, but it's a newer ballet and those are hit or miss.

The director nods to you, and you walk out on stage. Long elegant steps, pushing yourself en Pointe to dance and spin under the lights. König catches your hand to hold you steady, your leg raised behind you, your movement stopped on the end of your raise as you look at each other.

The hood over his face, his hunched posture, it's not the König you're used to. The emotion in his eyes makes your breath catch in your chest. Devotion.

You take your hand from his grip quickly, dropping out of Pointe to run across the stage and continue your solo.

König follows, his hands on your waist, spinning you as you pirouette. You love the feeling of his hands on you. The raw strength, the size, dwarfing you even as he hunches to try and grab you. You slip from his grip a second time.

You spin across the stage, feeling König's eyes on you as you do. You pause, in the middle. Arms raised above your head, leg raised high behind you, exerting strength you normally have a partner to help with. You drop off Pointe, and glance back at König. His watchful gaze is heavy, his hand outstretched toward you, offering his aid silently.

You raise onto Pointe again, hold your hand out to him. When König rushes to you, he doesn't take your hand. Instead you're lifted. His hands on your waist swooping you up overhead as quickly as you can take a breath.

Being lifted has always turned your stomach. The hands lifting you are always too tight, press too hard, lift with too much effort. Your previous partners would lift you quickly, your jump aiding enough to actually get you in the air. From there half of the lift was dependent on your own strength, but with König... With König he lifts you slowly, his strength and care shining through the movement. The only flip in your stomach comes from the way he looks up at you, like you're some sort of amazing magical creature.

Aren't you supposed to be playing the human?

When he lowers you back down you don't want to leave. Your hands trail his biceps, as you're set en pointe, and you rest your forehead against his chest. His arms circle you, his head ducking to press his nose to the top of your head with open affection. It's not in the choreography. Your director will be mad you've pause the pa des duex.

"Your character runs, Liebchen," König whispers to you, you tip your head back to look at him, to see the adoration in his eyes up close, "so run."

You do, slipping from his arms to continue your cat and mouse duet. There's no pay off for the final act if you stay with him now. That doesn't stop you from wishing you could stay with him, from missing the warmth of his hands each time they leave you. You don't know how anyone could run from him.

#ballet au #könig x reader #könig x you #könig cod #cod x reader #x reader #i no longer know ballet terms but i can picture their dance so clearly in my mind #very similar to the cat and mouse when odette and her prince first meet in the woods #trying to figure out choreographing König and liebling's relationship #this is just the start of it when Liebling is unsure of König's intentions and keeps running from him #ballet darling doesnt understand her character but shes playing her like a champ #pov ur pretty sure the two leads in this ballet are fucking but you dont have any evidence for it

sometimes someone will reblog my "silver lied in the finale no idea abt what tho" post and their tags all full of #flinthamilton angst and i just really am forcefully reminded that even though we all watched the same show . we did not in fact watch the same show. like yes their affair is basically what set the whole plot in motion and i really love thomas as a plot device but i do have to confess that idc abt thomas as a person at all lmfao

#like i wont stop u from making the finale abt flinthamilton thats ur right go crasy go silly etc but to me that is just not whats happening #thomas being there or not is abt whether or not silver is lying about this particular detail it is not abt unburying ur gays #like. to me at least #idk how else to put it but thomas being there is not abt thomas. it is abt flint and madi and silver and The Narrative #it is abt silver trying to pay off flint with the same thing he sold this war for: a partner #and he is telling this to madi who did not want this about flint who also did not want this #so theyre both making eye contact and are waiting for the other to either flinch or turn back into a person who loves them #its driving me insane. like ur taking a moment as fucked up and genius as this and u decide this is abt colonizer romance #like im not even getting into the fact that imo flint has progressed so far in his ideological journey that they wouldnt see eye to eye #bc woodes rogers is flints mirror but wr is also what thomas mightve become and ur telling me hed happily settle for That? #ok no i'll stop here i need to go say the litany against getting mad online 10x (getting mad online is the mind killer) #black sails #cavetext #once again. live ur truth!!! more power to u!!! but if u do that on my post where i can see it i will inevitably have opinions i fear

To be honest I kind of just want to write a fic set after Frontiers where Tails ends up in Possum Springs and befriends that crew. Not for any plot reasons, there's no plot really, but just so he can hang around with a bunch of people who have problems and negative feelings and think it's A-OK to feel and express those negative feelings. They treat him like the kid he is because they're in their twenties, and he explodes with everything he's been through in a way to prove that he's not just a kid, and Mae responds with the NitW-certified understated, "Jeez." They take him to smash lightbulbs behind the Snack Falcon. They let him sit in at band practice. He helps Bea out at the Ol' Pickaxe so she can finally fire the creep that assaulted her. (She at first tells him that's probably a violation of child labor laws. He goes, "what are those." She says "fuck it" and hires him.) He and Lori get to gleefully shout, "everything sucks forever!!" while laying on the train tracks because sometimes you've just got to embrace the fact that, yeah, things suck! And maybe they always will! And maybe that's okay! Maybe it's okay to not be okay!!

There's no plot. This follows the events of NitW too, so there's no danger from the cult. Tails is aged up a little maybe, perhaps 12 so that he and Lori can be closer in age (since she's 14), because I want them to be besties and later pen pals. (She gets him a friendship necklace that's two halves of a star. Together they spell "BFF." She gives him the B, because he has a big brain, and keeps the second F because she wants people to think it means "fuck."

Tails: "So . . . Brains Forever Fuck?" Lori: "Exactly" :3)

I just think it would be fun and maybe what he needs. Everything's dying in Possum Springs and everything sucks, Mae is severely mentally ill, Bea is cut off from her dreams, Gregg and Angus have no way of knowing if they'll ever manage to get out, Lori was probably going to be the next target of the cult. But hey, they're still alive. They can still smash lightbulbs and build crazy robots and tightrope walk on the power lines and have knife fights (ok that's just Mae and Gregg) and play grunge rock as loud as they can during band practice. Angus can tell Tails about a universe that doesn't care, and people who do. Gregg can commiserate on what it feels like to feel worthless, and Bea likewise on how it feels to be overwhelmed but knowing you have no choice but to keep going anyway. And Mae can save him the trouble of paying for a shit therapist by telling him, look, the only therapist around will tell you to just journal your thoughts and feelings. So do that. Maybe it helps. She doesn't know. But she does it, so hey, might be worth a shot.

I don't know, I just like thinking about it. Don't know if I'll ever write it, but the idea of Tails and Lori M being pen pals regardless is one I like a lot (as well as Tails taking a burned CD of the band's EP with him when he leaves, and actually picking up on that journaling thing big sis Maeday told him about . . .)

#i recently rediscovered the song ''Ghosts'' by Mandopony which is based on NitW #and it makes me think of this concept a lot #the thing abt the Sonic characters is that feeling negative things is often like . . . they try to fix it for each other? #which isn't bad per se; there's no bad intentions there #but whether it's Sonic or Amy or whoever the idea is always - #no no don't feel sad! believe in urself!! be happy!! be optimistic!! etc etc #but sometimes you NEED to feel bad. sometimes you NEED to just scream abt how much everything fucking SUCKS #bc feeling it & screaming abt it is the only way to get to accepting & moving on from it!! #so i think being around ppl who are like ''yup things fucking suck bro. have a drink (wait how old are you again)'' would be healing #plus there's one lyric set in ''Ghosts' that really works for post-Frontiers: #''I found the stars but I lost my mind'' #idk. i'm just thinking abt it a lot #night in the woods #oh ALSO since Gregg is ALSO a fox he could teach Tails the trick where u put cups on ur ears #& then u can hear the ocean #v important trick for him to learn #sth

literally such a tragedy what channel zero did to search and rescue woods youre telling me the author lost the publishing rights for THAT like im still so mad. we could have had a book. we could have had a book

#sorry i hate the third season of channel zero always have and im speaking my truth now HJKDLSJHFKD #okay like. channel zero in general. the first season is like #i wouldnt say its good. honestly it started okay and kinda intriguing #and then got kinda bad. and then at one point it flipped back around and became camp to me #so i kinda like the first season but through no credit of itself HJKHJKDS #and as an adaptation i thought it was like too confusing for people unfamiliar with the creepypasta but too uninterested in the details #of said creepypasta to appeal to fans of it. but it was a bit camp. a little bit #the second season was fine. it wasnt perfect but i thought it held up decently as a story and as an adaptation #i never got around to watching the fourth season. i hear it was fine #but that third season was WRETCHED i remember it being rated well as a story but it was so like. disrespectful as an adaptation #(also it was too focused on gore and blood for me at the time. like i dont mind gore but it felt so like. meaningless?) #(and i wasnt sure about its depiction of mental health at the time but maybe my opinion would change nowadays it has been a while) #like you got the rights to such a weird and surreal concept and ignored it entirely....what on earth #no baby crying loop in the middle of the wilderness alone....no stairs that cut off your arm cleaning in the woods...NOTHING #literally so tragic. @ nosleep authors and other online horror writers PLEASE watch out when giving out adaptation rights #if i remember correctly the poor search and rescue author got screwed over by syfy which is so sad 😔 #also please publish some kind of paperback version of ur stories for lil ol me. pretty please #basic print on demand is fine id just love to have more creepypasta and nosleep stuff on my bookshelf LOL #also still sad theres no left right game book. blease it would be so good published BLEASE

Next person to call night in the woods a cozy game gets thrown off a cliff

#the game is literally about a cult that murders young adults they think arent productive enough #is blatantly about how capitalism destroys lives and communities #and is also about depression and how being in ur early 20s kinda sucks #just because it takes place in the fall and doesnt have combat doesnt make it a cozy game!!!! #im losing my mind #night in the woods #nitw

since satan's event has ended, i wanted to ask what your thoughts on it were?

now that i've finished both routes barbatos' event, i can now make a comparison with satan's event...

unfortunately, both follow the same pattern in which the prime subject of the face of the event...simply isn't. although they're advertised as events that center around the specified character, it's more accurate to call these types of events as a gacha in of itself. you don't know who the "real mc" of the event is until you make educated guesses based on the cards or you read through the story yourself. for satan's, it was diavolo; for barbatos, leviathan.

some people may disagree with me (i'm unsure because i haven't been familiarizing myself with current fandom matters), but satan's event was mediocre at best. the devs brought up some aspects of satan i wished they treated better, and i wish that some things hadn't gone as they did (i.e. making diavolo be the "good guy" and satan, the "bad guy". there is no black & white here, devs...look a bit closer).

barbatos' event was disappointing. there is no exploration of barbatos' character--they treat him as static as they have all these years later. i'll be honest with you, though, i'd rather choose one of two evils than to make him unfathomably ooc for fanservice purposes; the event may as well be leviathan's because barbatos only got a small spotlight shone on him in the very last locked book.

tldr; the devs were making baby steps in satan's event, and then embarassingly fell down 72 flights of stairs when releasing barbatos'. treat these events as though they were gachas because you don't know which character will overshine the one you expect.

#me for like 22yrs of my life: god. get me tf outta the midwest. i hate it here #me flying home after 3yrs living in the desert: oh fuck. HOLY FUCK. its fucking green yall!!!! im losing my mind. HOW SO GREEN????!!!! #literally everytime i fly home im like: holy shit every town is like. in the woods. im gonna cry. that so beautiful #bc im a sap lol. its true tho! its crazy. and it's so fucking green here its beautiful #im so desperate to leave the desert. i really wanna go to school somewhere in the Appalachian mountains tbh #god its so nice to be home. we'll see if i acutally post less bc i might actually b happy for a bit haha. or i might post more nature #stuff bc ill be like: yo look how awesome the world is. ya kno? #my mum is super into rock collecting so i come home and shes like: yo lets watch YouTube vids of ppl rock collecting and im like omg i lov #this. ppl sharing their lov of geology and pretty rocks 😭 and my parents r like hey if u get the summer off bc ur funding runs out and ur #between programs u can come home and we can do some traveling in our camper! we can go to the UP and down to the gray fossil site. bc i #cant shut up abt paleontology lol. my parents r so good 😭😭😭 #im so excited to see the lake and go to the museum and we're gonna visit my old prof in my college town and he does quantitative models so #like he doesn't get a ton of students enthusiastic abt his work and he really started me out on my path. so like. im paying my respects 🙏 #hopefully all goes well lol. im also gonna snipe some samples from a state park and mail them back to school. which should be neat #sigh... anyway im just happy for now and theres so much cool stuff in the world #and yet for some reason i canoot sleep. despite the fact i woke up at 3.30am yesterday so that i could travel for like 11hrs #im too awake now #i want it to be morning! #also shout out to my nose that apparently does not work. like thr dogs got sprayed by a skunk yesterday morning and i do not smell it #its so weird. i dont kno why. i can smell other things. i just cant smell this? idk ive long suspected my sense of smell is awful #and i guess this confirms it. everytime my boss is like: do u smell this??? im like: lol no. what r u talking abt? #that's prob why im so picky. everything is bland 😵‍💫 bc i cannot taste that much #unrelated #lol i slept like 3hrs and now my brain is like hmmm that enough of that lol #also wtf not that many ppl were wearing masks in the airport. u hate to see it

[mushtoons]

Sorry i have a question as someone who thinks i might have DID and have never been sure but figured it was some other undiagnosed stuff, lately im realizing im having entire out loud conversations with myself, like to calm myself or to tell myself off. like ill notice im unconsciously saying "shut up" and then responding "sorry" kind of thing. i used to just be like that in my head but its turned into out loud stuff without me really being aware of it. is that kind of what its like for you? or was it ever? i just want to know if im in the right ballpark

personally yeah, we did and still do that all the time that and have someone giving commentary on our thoughts, like 'man this color purple is so pretty' 'eh im more of a yellow man myself' 'the yellow is kind of bland--wait a second'

so while it could be other things like u said, ur at least swinging in the right ball field as far as we can tell!

#then again like u said it could be something else #do ur research and educate yourself! #it makes things easier! #we just realized how rude that sounded we meant that in a positive u got this kinda way #and at the end of the day if u suspect ur a system and end up wrong its okay #we cant always have things figured out about ourselves mostly involving complex things like the mind! #wood wide web

also evil dead sucked major ass I'm sick of staying silent the more I think about it the more it seems like a total failure under any criteria u give

#'xyz is mediocre but it's a pure schlocky entertaining gore fest so I don't mind!!' it's literally not... #like i know I'm a sicko or whatever but it's so fucking underwhelming. I'm still so pissed they didn't do the eye stuff #that the trailer promised. because they're COWARDSSSS #and again like it didn't have any sense of what makes a horror film like. function #it's so bad at adhering to the most basic tenets of the genre it makes me appreciate even the worst horrors I've watched #and then as an EVIL DEAD movie?! as someone who doesn't even LIKE this franchise it's a complete spit in the face to it #like oh my god where's the chaos where's the total sensory overload it felt SO safe the whole time #where's the fucked up excessive makeup... they just looked like people... #and it being set in the city could have been interesting but they did less than nothing with it #like ur not gonna give the movie even a LITTLE this place will kill you swag??? #and this isn't a real criticism but it does also inexplicably piss me off that they didn't call it the necronomicon #like what the hell ur not rockin with the necronomicon?! kill yourselves... #like objectively the woods are alive and they're trying to kill you fucks way harder that shit happening in a random #new york apartment. ugh such a damn disappointment
