#wow who brought this back

[phoenixcatch7]

Au where sqq was a popular/famous vr graphic designer specialising in avatars and animations and 3d modelling, and sqh worked on the side/before pidw as a grey hat hacker, and together they take the system apart and add all sorts of mods and features. Cat ears. Sci fi effects. Playing games on the system. Sqq manages to screw with something important and gets access to vr chat style dream realm, where poor mm is extremely surprised to have sections blocked off without an invite.

#Sqq and sqh entering a competition to see who can get the system to run doom first. Their crowning achievement #The pinnacle of impossible ports #Sqh wins and sqq has to design mbj a maid cat costume because he lost the bet #He hates it the whole time and steals the design for lbh #Everyone in the vicinity of cq: *wakes up with cat ears* #Sqq (totally not the culprit): *patting lbhs ears* wow I can't believe it what happened. Maybe Shidi brought back an artifact from his trip #Anyway I'm going to be VERY BUSY for the next few hours. Figuring out what happened #svsss #luo binghe #shen qingqiu #svsss au #shang qinghua #bingqiu #moshang #Vr as a concept is GREATLY underutilised in fics and I strive to fix that

Alex Turner opens up about The Car, Arctic Monkeys' 20th anniversary album

The frontman of the British band that performs at Primavera Sound, in São Paulo, invests in more abstract lyrics in new album

Published October 16 2022, by Rodrigo Salem

Alex Turner is not satisfied with the lighting in the room chosen as the setting for our interview. It's a small, cozy hipster hotel in the Los Feliz neighborhood of Los Angeles, one of those above a cafe with tables occupied by young people at the computer, and no lines at cash registers that don't accept cash.

The frontman of Arctic Monkeys, the biggest rock band to come out of the UK in the last 20 years, flips the switches until he finds the perfect balance of light. "Is this okay for you?" he asks, but doesn't seem to care too much about the answer.

Turner likes to have complete control over his environment. "Where do you want to sit? This will be the best place, right?" he asks, coffee in hand, already standing in front of a small beige table below the lamp that insisted on not emanating the adequate light.

Shy to the point of never completing a full sentence, as if his mouth didn't keep up with his fast brain, Turner is acutely aware of his obsession with control and attention to detail, something that has only grown bigger in the last few years at the helm of the band. But the singer, guitarist and songwriter lived something different in the creation of The Car, the group's seventh album, which will be released worldwide this week.

After composing the piano demos alone for much of the pandemic, he was reunited with the rest of the band over the summer of last year, in a secluded house that was part of a 12th-century monastery in Suffolk, on the east coast of England.

"We hadn't done that since the first album. I had extra film rolls and I took my 16mm camera to film everything and keep myself busy during the recording. At first, I just wanted to record the memory, but it seemed to help in the work environment, because I stepped out of the process a bit and gave everyone more space," he says.

"James [Ford, record producer] was delighted, because I wasn't looking over his shoulder all the time and being a twat."

The musician's hobby as a filmmaker was not the only novelty in the three weeks of work in the makeshift studio, complete with a piano borrowed from a resident there and the technological arsenal brought in from London. The period was essential for Arctic Monkeys to remember that they are still a rock group formed by friends.

"We had a lot of laughs and watched the Euro Cup together. It was important to have that band energy again," says Turner, revealing that Body Paint, The Car's latest single, only took its final form because of this camaraderie. "The distorted guitar at the end just came about because I wanted to do that solo with them. It sounds obvious, but being together changes the dynamics of how I play."

Ironically, the album's main theme seems to circle around characters that don't seem to fit the environment they're in. In Body Paint itself, which wouldn't be out of place in one of George Martin's orchestrated productions for The Beatles, Turner sings that he's "keeping on [his] costume and calling it a writing tool."

Jet Skis On The Moat, played on a sultry guitar and with a broken rhythm reminiscent of U2's The Playboy Mansion, brings a Hollywood psychedelic mood—"jet skis on the moat / they filmed everything in CinemaScope, but this is the last time you will ride them, though".

"I was imagining this perception of us living like rock stars in a fantasy castle on a mountain, riding jet skis, disconnected from everything," says Turner.

In I Ain't Quite Where I Think I Am, he seems to describe a strange trip on a luxury yacht off the coast of France, a country where he usually goes with his girlfriend, French singer Louise Verneuil, since he moved back to England from Los Angeles. "I spend less time here, but I love this city. It's where I have my friends," he says.

Extremely protective of his privacy, Alex Turner does not confirm any theories that could refer to his life beyond music. However, he admits that feeling like a fish out of water is one of the themes of the record. "I've definitely written this time about someone who doesn't fit in," he says as he pulls out of his green jacket two folded sheets of paper filled with his lyrics and assorted notes.

I question the reason for keeping this material around and the singer lets his guard down. "I think that this way I can have these conversations more easily, and stay on the same level as other people. You've read the lyrics, listened to the record, and I thought I should do the same to meet you in the middle," he says, soon bringing back up his good-humored defenses. "And it also serves to intimidate people."

Not that he seems to want to intimidate anyone. Turner can barely look up, more concerned with focusing on some object and finding the right words for his answers. Keeping the lyrics in your pocket serves to rediscover the words of the songs.

One of the most brilliant songwriters of modern British rock and someone who has managed to portray the yearnings and feelings of an entire millennial generation, he says his lyrics come out of the space between the conscious and the unconscious.

In The Car, they seem even more abstract. "I love leaving space for lyrics not to be fully understood and to become more interesting as the years go by. I like to explore things that are difficult to talk about."

Does that mean that Alex Turner, who, two decades ago, rehearsed in a garage with Jamie Cook on guitar, Andy Nicholson on bass, later replaced by Nick O'Malley, and Matt Helders on drums, in Sheffield, is finally noticing the inevitable passage of time?

"Funny, it's hard to accept that it's been 20 years," he says. "But we're alive and active. That happens a lot when I'm singing the old songs now. I remember something, not necessarily the lyrics, but the environment, a person and the sensations of the past."

A rich past, we must add. Arctic Monkeys have gone through several phases in these two decades. It began with the confessional hip-hop-enamored rock of the first two albums, a formula that propelled the group into the stratosphere of fame. It gained weight with the stoner rock of Josh Homme of Queens of the Stone Age on 2009's Humbug and the stadium hard rock of 2013's AM. And it culminated in the journey away from Earth in 2018's jazzy Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino.

The Car continues the sonic exploration of their previous work, but brings guitars back to the songs and a Turner interested in using his voice as an instrument. "I don't know if Alex from 20 years ago would like this sound," he wonders. "Secretly, I wanted something along those lines then, but it wasn't within my reach at the time. On second thought, I think he would like it. But if he wouldn't like it, then fuck it," he jokes.

He admits that he changed his way of looking at music and even composing. On previous albums, he wrote the lyrics and then thought of the melody. The music now comes first.

"I made an effort to put the lyrics in sync with a melody that gives me permission to use certain words," says the musician. "I didn't focus on that in the past, I think it started on AM, when I started to change the lyrics as I was influenced by the sound in the studio."

Back on stage since a few weeks ago, Turner believes the pandemic has changed the relationship between band and audience. "The first time we performed was powerful," he says. "There's a new energy that encourages me. I'm trying not to behave the same way on stage. I think some of that comes from the younger crowd."

Brazil is going to feel this in a few days. Arctic Monkeys closes the first day of Primavera Sound, in São Paulo, on November 5th, already oiling the show with a new repertoire. "When we arrive in Brazil, I want to test two new songs and leave some old ones behind," says the singer, who already says that the next album may come out faster than expected after the long gestation of The Car.

Unable to play shows, the group spent a year polishing up the album in post-production. "We had more time to work on the record and I like to think that this had a positive influence on the final result, as we had more space to hone, think and fight for certain ideas", says Turner. "I love the idea of doing something different, like writing, recording and releasing in a week. Maybe it's a fun idea for the next project."

#translating this was a delight! i used to want to be a translator this brought me back wow #also the jet skis lyrics are not it okay i had to guess from portuguese i did the closest thing that seemed to rhyme #arctic monkeys #alex turner #the car #interview #* #i hope that he doesn't mean i ain't quite as one of the new ones #i want like 6 the car songs if possible. who does he think he is #also he'd kill himself if he had to work on a project for less than like 6 months lol #the bit about the lights is so vnjdnjfvnjncjd #also the thing about meeting the interviewers in the middle 🥺 i have a post from a couple year back saying how he refuses to do that. #i used those exact words. i. #he's growing and trying and proving me wrong im so

#aaaand thats a 3rd doctor. a psychiatrist. who listened to me ans thought: mm sounds like bip0lar lol #me: wow its so easy to get diagnosed as bip0lar. thats bc u r exhibiting lots of depression and a limit amount of mood elevation. that's #like. thats what bip0lar is. she was like yea ppl with bip0lar 2 spend like 75% of time being depressed and a lil elevated mood... which #sounds like what u r describing. me: #...yeah. but again its complicated by the 0cd and spectrum issues. but she independently brought up 4dhd. just when i was like no its all #0cd. here we r again. stuck back in the messy overlap. but whatever i got proscribed bip0lar medicine. lam1ctal. we'll see #bc everyone i talk to is like. we need to control the mood 1st. like so u dont die. and im like hm yeah good call lol #she seems super cool tho. like i would love to just talk to her. ugh. she wants to get a handle on the mood and then maybe add a stimulant #bc shes had it happen in thr past where someone comes in with debiltating 0cd and got treated with lam1ctol and a stimulant and the #obsessive rumination stopped. so well see. idk if ill actually qualify as 4dhd enough. well see. fingers crossed #my mood is a lil elevated rn so its all fun. well see if we tip off a cliff bc im getting less sleep and go go going #unrelated #ugh im scared to start the medine tho bc the ssri i got proscribed fucked me up so much. which is also an indicator of bip0lar #god dammit. if this works im gonna have to actually accept the idea of being bip0lar. i mean. it makes sense being on that spectrum #is just sounds insane and i was not expecting it despite my fucking obsession with understanding wtf my deal is #idk. whatever. doesnt matter

why does no one talk about alex rider. that series had me in a chokehold through all of elementary school. when he "killed off' alex at the end of scorpia I fully went insane

#and then like a year or two later I was browsing the bookshelves and came across a new alex rider book and I was like. no way there's no way #but HE HAD SURVIVEDDDDD HE BROUGHT HIM BAACK I lost my little mind #also. I feel the need to speak my truth: #I reread the ''skeleton key'' book in this series too many times because I was obsessed... OBSESSED... with #the dynamic between alex and the soviet general alexei who imprisons him and wants to adopt him and start a nuclear apocalypse #like. it is blatant horowitz's intent was for alexei to have a paternal feeling towards alex that was twisted and evil and thus corrupt #but let me tell you #the ''longingly paternal but Wrong and Bad'' reads as WAY DIFFERENT now that I'm an adult #I was like. idk. eight when I read this. too young to Know About Things. #but looking back on it I am like: wow I picked up on the weird ''man obsessing over another man'' vibes going on this book EARLY #hahahahah

guys im so serious i need thorki to advance past the oasis brothers (??????) i know they don't stand a snowball's chance in hell against wincest which i think is just going to universally mercilessly dominate anything it goes up against but all of you literally must be there for me in my time of need you must help thorki win

#i can't even submit propaganda tbh like what is there even to say #what is there EVEN TO SAY!!!! #loki removed himself from hel's book he erased himself from the looping narrative he ensured that he would never ever come back #and thor tore the world apart looking in every corner until he found a fragment of his soul left #and he brought him back. even though all of asgard was like wow i can't believe that annoying guy we all hate who spent the last few years #in full drag trying to murder all of us is finally dead #good riddance i'm so glad we never have to see him ever again #and then thor is like GUYS NOBODY PANIC :))) IT'S GONNA BE OKAY :))) I FOUND LOKI AGAIN :))) HE'S HERE :))) #I BROUGHT HIM BACK AND IT'S ALL GONNA BE OK #ok maybe that's what i'll submit #hard to say anything about the mcu tbh it's more like. do you have eyes? #ok well then point them at your tv screen. there's your evidence.

Pretty big vent incoming in tags, just a warning. Feel free to scroll past /gen

#sorry i. need to vent #he is genuinely one of the most ignorant; stubborn; and absolutely manchild of a man I've ever seen #I'm not fucking lying when I say he gets pissy and shouts and complains about EVERYTHING #and I don't mean just occasional shouting and getting loud #whenever he's upset. its /loud/. very loud #first time in my 5 years of knowing him I had enough and snapped back at him because he was yelling at me- #-bc I supposedly do absolutely nothing around the house and I take horrible care of myself and dont care about anything #at least in regards to the house #and complains about why I'm deciding not to go to college and that he got a job at 15 while he's literally #in his mid 40's #so. #like. #I told him I'm still 18 and I dont want him to boss around my entire fucking life but he brought up the excuse again of- #-him doing all the shit I SHOULD be doing by his words when he was 15 #first of all. like. to get things straight; we are not related at all not even in the slightest #he's my mothers bf; I don't know why he gets so pissy at me about MY life of all things #like Jesus Christ shut up challenge impossible #yeah I had a fun (/s) moment earlier where I went to clean my dish and he started to snap at me about how I- #-walk past the dishes every day while they're piled up and I should do them. meanwhile. they're literally not mine. ever #I get it yeah but. whatever. he kept going onn and on and on and got even more upset with me literally not saying or doing anything to- #-provoke him more #Ig he just doesn't know that!! wow!!

[prettyboysdontlookatexplosions]

most of the examples i see of this are in a vacuum harmless but i do find it concerning how often i witness an exchange on the internet that’s like:

some complete fucking rando on social media, potentially a self-branded expert of some kind but probably not even that, like literally just a person with internet access: did you know that actually [information that may or may not be factually accurate, because it’s literally just some person saying stuff on twitter]?

other people: wow this is so helpful, thanks so much for telling me, i had no idea

like even when the thing the person is saying is true i find this concerning. because like, Some Person On Twitter should not be an automatically accepted source on…… anything. like it’s fine to read something like that and be like “oh interesting i’d never heard of this” and then do some more digging. or i mean if it’s not serious it’s also fine to be like “oh huh cool if true” lol. but it stresses me out how many people are wandering around with their default reaction to certain kinds of alleged information, regardless of its provenance, being “thank you for enlightening me, o kind stranger,” and not, “hm, i wonder if there is literally any basis for believing this other than that someone said it was true?”

#you think someone would do that? just go on the internet and lie? #i thought about this bc i remembered the p*yt*n b**chd**th louisa may alcott thread lol #and how the replies on twitter were so like…. #like it wasn’t even ‘i’d never considered this but now that you mention it you make a good point’ #(which like. He Did Not. but whatever) #like the tone of it was very ‘thank you so much for enlightening me with your expertise’ #with a side of ‘it’s crazy how this objective historical fact was only brought to light by Some Guy On Twitter With A Podcast’ #like there was no awareness of it even *as* an argument being put forth #that’s the element of this that i find a concerning behavior pattern even though in this case it reallt #does not matter that much #like it wasn’t people agreeing with this bad argument. that’s annoying. but it’s different #than people taking something as like empirical fact literally just because the person saying it said that it was #anyway but i was also sort of thinking about this phenomenon re: a mutual’s post on the twitter definition of intrusive thoughts #because i feel like i see this a LOT with psych stuff #where someone will be like ‘hey did you know that [behavior or feeling] is ACTUALLY [term for a symptom]? #and people will be like ‘wow thanks so much for educating me kind stranger’ #like you should really aim to build into your thought process some degree of #‘this sounds interesting but back up. do i have other reasons to believe that it is actually true?’ #nobody’s perfect and i let stuff slide without noticing i’m sure #but many people really seem to think ‘uncritically accepting what someone who seems cool says’ is like the correct approach #it is not!!!! #don’t take my word for it :) use your brain to decide if i am right (i am)

#while yes yes this post technically does apply to the simp bros i wanna cry about my own bro in the tags so you have been warned~? #so to start off my monthly existential crisis rant i just wanna say that… i’m so so soo envious of my bro. like to a really unhealthy extent #he’s tall enough to reach the top shelves. i can barely touch them if i jump. he has so many friends and even a gf. i have 0 irl friends. #he is able to sit in one spot and focus on his studies. i can’t even sit down for a full half hour to *eat* without getting up to take a nap #he’s learning how to drive. i can’t. he was admitted into university. i wasn’t. he’s able to find what he likes and stick to it. i can’t. #like mannn. he thrived in the course he chose in tertiary education while i lost my passion for it in the middle of my first year. #he’s good at picking up everything he tries (puzzle cubes; bball; you name it he’s good at it) while i’m just. bad at everything i try lol #he’s very good at his studies (aside from languages) and sports. i’m not good at anything at all. #he gets told that he has a great sense of humour. i’m just. boring and annoying. lolllll #he’s super sociable and he has good relations with pretty much every single family member (sans me). i’m not in contsct with most of the fam #heck he was pretty much the favourite from the moment he was born. his baby pics still get brought up from time to time bc of how cute he is #(granted it’s bc he looks like a bby m*ch*l*n man (like the tire company mascot) and he’s super cute in them but still) #and he’s also a guy and content with being a guy which is just… not fair y’knowwww~~~ asian family boy biases and all (cries) #our father pretty much cast me aside once my bro was old enough to hang with him. and even before then the bias was as clear as day. >:((((( #i make the dude mad? i get screamed at and whaccced. bro gets the dude mad? he gets a lesson on how to throw punches instead!!! like wow!!!! #he’s the only one who got to escape any direct physical harm from the guy and yet!!!! he was the 1st one to be singled out for trauma focus #idk if it’s bc of his age back then or whattttt but i can’t believe i had to friggin’ ask my therapist back then for a trauma assessment :( #2015 was a different time… my bro managed to succeed in school while i was rejected from the drama club for being too depressed :(((( #but i’m sure my bro has his own share of struggles… and i’m glad that he has a few groups of friends to chill with. really. #but i just can’t help feeling extremely envious of him. i could never tell him any of this though we hardly talk at home lol #and he pretends not to know me when i approach him in public lmfaoooo. i don’t blame him though; i’d do the same if i were to approach me #so yeah. if you read this i’m sorry for being cringefail and bad at everything~~ am i still allowed to pollute your dash~? <3 #and also. idk if i’ll be able to continue sischange over this week bc i’ll be handling 2 workstations by meself :( and idk how tired i’ll be #but we’ll see ok~? sorry for having zero time management skills am i still qualified to be a legit adult~? #sunday’s 🧂saltfest🧂

several reminders have collided this week to once again reinforce the mortifying fact that the best way to become my best friend is to be in my vicinity and as close to identical to me as possible. this is an almost universal rule

#none of us look at ALL alike if i served you up a photo lineup circa 2023 #but there are MANY old pictures where i could show you and you'd be like 'wow 2 of her' #if you think this is about you it is bc you're the only person irl who knows my tumblr #but mostly this is about the excruciating fact that my grade 1-4 bestie is pregnant #which has brought back the time i received a birthday kiss from her grandpa bc he thought i was her #with right now being the first time anyone but me has been aware of that fact #ink post #me #rambling #literally the examples that look least like me are in context of our class photo still the closest doppelgangers

i watched demon slayer in a few days and thought it was sooo good but like literally the moment i finished i forgot everything about it. like. huh. um. where was the substance. its definitely a forgettable anime thats praised for its art style lol

i read the entire manga while it was still updating and my conclusion is that demon slayer is one of those animes that starts out really strong but then the creator loses steam like halfway through and just starts half-assing everything because they just want the series to be done with already LMAO

#after the like halfway point you really start to notice like. 'oh wow all of these arcs are following the exact same structure' #and things become so predictable it becomes a complete drag to read #demon slayer spoilers for people who care i guess but they killed off like 80% of the main cast and then immediately #brought them all back in a 'they all reincarnated!!!' ending like its such a cop out LOL #also if you know about the whole joke with shonens where every character seems to be in a secret competition to see who has a sadder #backstory i think i would give demon slayer the gold medal in that category because holy shit LMAO were they gunning for it #ask #sleepygaymerdisease

I’ve been busy the past few days so I haven’t been able to draw much, finally decided to design Billy— here he is in comparison with Maxwell.

I want them to be alike enough that people who knew Maxwell do a double take when they see Billy.

… which would only consist of Papa, Jose, and Princeton nowadays. But those are the only people it needs to impact anyways so whatever.

#I have a whole backstory thing— like Maxwell wasn’t originally a vengeful spirit until Billy summoned him #and now through the power of respawns he’s stuck being a ghost #Also the fact that the ‘human sacrifice’ used to bring him back was a GOD #not quite dead— not quite alive!! #The more he looks into it the more he hears that lost souls tend to leave when their unfinished business is complete #and he thinks about his death and realizes that Papa was KINDA AT FAULT #so he was like. okay. awesome. I’ll go get closure then. #but then he saw Gertrude— who also looked REALLY SIMILAR to the person who killed him #in part because there’s a chance he was killed BY GERTRUDE #and he’s just like. ‘WOW you LET ME DIE and then MARRIED MY ATTACKER???’ #and then he finds out what happened to Jose. and Jeremy #and everyone else he used to know #and since Spencer was used to bring him back Maxwell inherited a bit of his still-weakened power and. his famous temperament. #and he just sits back and goes Fuck It. I’m killing my cousin. #venturiantale #taleblr #maxwell acachalla #Billy acachalla #taleblr headcanons #(the reason why Billy brought back Maxwell specifically was because papa kept slipping up and calling him Maxwell by mistake) #(Billy recognized the name on the grave and decided to see how they knew each other cuz Papa is dodgy about his history) #(this is why we communicate Papa. now you have four close friends and loved ones from your past who want to kill you and not three) #(five if you count the toilet toucher. WHO IS LITERALLY BILLY)

getting annoyed at all the people i keep seeing saying no omg halloween ends was so good because they tried something new and im like yeah ok but did literally any of the stuff they tried actually turn out good? no.

#it didnt even do the bare minimum of creating a coherent whole smh. let alone being good i very nearly did walk out entirely. #like ok playing with the idea that your environment can be what pushes you to do evil instead of you being Inherently Bad #and the idea that like. michael myers isnt some all encompassing evil he's just one of many people out there who do bad things #great i get it. fine #but then they just throw it in the trash by being like actually no corey just is an evil person now. hes got bad vibes. #and then he (spoilers) and his entire story just like. doesnt even get brought up again now its a movie abt killing michael for 20 minutes #like ok . so now michael is the ultimate evil of haddonfield again and we all funeral march together to kill him. sure. #i guess fuck what the other 80 minutes of this movie were about. #like we get a limp line abt how evil never dies it just changes shape but like. they literally did kill both the evils & haddonfield's fine #i dont even think corey or anything about him specifically ever gets brought up again. for the entire last bit of the movie. #and we make zero moves to like address... what happened to create the evil scarecrow man at all. its just like well michaels dead we win. #plus whatever they were trying to do with laurie's entire character just made NO sense. #shes fine now she's healed from her trauma but now people are mad at her because she 'provoked' michael?? #when last movie we quite literally established that she didnt and he wasn't even here to look for her. he does not care abt that woman. #and then her granddaughter being like YOURE SO OBSESSED WITH DEATH YOU WANT EVERYONE AS MISERABLE AS YOU #when like??? laurie isn't even miserable in this movie she's post therapy and doing pretty well and enjoying her fucking life?? #so now everyone is just like. projecting this image onto laurie that we know is provably false but its never addressed #its not like . 'wow people project an ideal onto victims of trauma but its not true'. like i think we are supposed to agree w these people. #or at the very least if we dont agree we're supposed to be like wow that was deep they might have a point. #they just like. say they hate her for being obsessed with her trauma when she isn't anymore and then it never comes back up #and the way they all forgive her is her fighting michael but like thats what she did in 2018 isnt that why you're mad at her???? #and dont get me started on all the fake deep dialogue and monologues or the weird forced love story so they could hook the wattpad crowd. #but like the overall movie there are some ideas that are actually really good and exactly what i'd want in a halloween finale #and they just like . execute literally all of them in the worst possible way . #movie diary

noda really failed with tsukishima's character that it makes me kinda sad honestly, koito wasn't as bad as him but it hurt me the most because he was my favorite. I enjoyed the ending but the feeling of it being rushed still remains. anyway nothing is perfect!!!

for real like it's not a secret that i hate tsukishima but my heart is with the few tsukigirls who actually gave a shit about him as a character because he was done SO dirty in the context of gk standards lmaoooo like it was so so sad shocking almost how much of a mess his character arc was. koito was the biggest disappointment for me as far as the story is concerned. i used to love him so much. who knew that this:

would be his last good moment as a character lol by closing that door he shut himself off from the entire linear progression of the story (that considering that he's always been kind of wobbly). SAD! well there's other characters and no work is without flaw or sacrifice, can't please everyone

#i'll give it to noda that he did foreshadow koito ending up like shit tho #i remember reading chapter 295 and the whiplash it brought like it was soooooo bad it genuinely felt like a slap and i was like WOW #so this is what he's getting? ok time to kill the affection i have for koito we're not doing this bestie #sooooo at least people like me who loved koito but got disappointed had MONTHS to come to terms with it so it's fine #tsukishima tho? it was quite sudden i'll give you that. if i cared i'd be soooo mad. but i don't so it ok <3 #vol 30 will have 28 additional pages and i'm 10000000000000% sure that koito's divorce will get the MUCH needed expansion #but! the damage is already done i know that i won't be taking him back #looking forward to the expansion anyway because tsurumi's going to get called out like the skank ass hoe he is and i'm living #for his antics i want to witness his wiggling #anon
