A/N: i thought this was a fitting part two for the other fic i posted!! this was so much more fun than i thought i was going to have lol. again, my pc is fucking up so no fun text colors buts it's not that serious... anyways, enjoy! thank you, anon!

Sero chose… to go trick or treating! 🍭

since about the later teen years, Sero has always been one to hand out candy, but this year he wanted to be the one receiving the candy!

which it's funny, he literally chose this on his own volition and it’s you who’s being dragged out to go trick or treating.

this young twenty-something year old was so excited about y’all matching that he wanted to show out on Halloween night lmao.

+ if y’all went out partying on any of the prior nights, just know he was stuck by your hip the whole time (and even did a demonstration of ykw).

Sero literally makes a whole spectacle about it like the thought is hilarious.

bro is swinging from building to building with you in his arms when you get tired of walking, he keeps the mask on the whole time just so the kids around him still feel the excitement of “Spiderman” making a guest appearance in their neighborhood. :’)

please the amount of times you or the older people accompanying the other kids out have made you take pictures of Sero and them was too many times to count LOL.

At a certain point some grumpy person is like, “why is yo big funky ass doin’ all of this fo" and he doesn’t give a FUCK.

To which Sero is like, “my Spidey senses are telling me it’s passed your bedtime, geriatic” meanwhile the person questioning him is like 40 years old.

you hate to admit that you actually had fun doing this foolishness with him and it is one of the memorable nights for you.

would you do it again next year? absolutely not.

+ except, Sero always had a way of persuading you….

BONUS: Sero became a trending topic on social media with even news stations covering it. this latent function ended up being more beneficial than you ever thought it would be.

Shinso chose… to go trick or treating! 🍭

this was barely his decision.

Shinso had already known about your adoration for Halloween but this was one of the first years of you two being together that you dragged him out on your shenanigans.

normally, you dress up and go along your merry way, with of course him reminding you to let him know if anything happens to call him. but this year, you wanted to do something different.

you wanted to do a couples costume.

the first idea was to do something like Squid Games, which he wasn’t opposed to. he could keep his face covered, spare his dignity, y'know?

then you changed your mind and wanted something more cute like Jack Skellington and Sally, which okay he doesn’t mind. he didn't want to say it out loud but you guys would look hot as them.

but the last and bright idea you went with was… salt and pepper?

yeah.

salt and pepper.

Shinso nearly passed out from it making no sense at all.

the worst part knowing he had no choice in the matter because once you made up your mind, that’s what y’all going with LMAO.

He’s like “why the fuck did you go with that idea?? Shit makes no sense.”

And you’re like, “sense when I have ever made sense with shit like this??? Be serious.”

let’s be real, y’all go together well because y’all both be so very unserious.

so when it’s Halloween night and y’all are out trick or treating, he has no choice but to keep his head held high and calls out to each door with a monotone, “trick or treat 😐".

he secretly had fun that night but you better not make him say it out loud.

Aizawa chose… to pass out candy! 🎭

Aizawa doesn’t really give a fuck about holidays, like he does not care at all.

he’s the type of man who only does stuff if his s/o or someone he generally cares about loves it, but other than that if it was up to him he would not be entertaining this.

it's not like he hates holidays or like has some vendetta against them from traumatic experiences, mans just doesn’t gaf.

BUTTTTTT he will show out in the most driest way known to man just to support you lmao.

He’ll be like, “what? I thought this is what you wanted?” in his makeshift Halloween costume made with tissue paper around his forehead and waist as a ‘mummy’ as if his hero costume doesn’t already have those components?))?)#*(%)4

I hate to break the 4th wall here, but now I’m starting to debate whether he’d do some ghetto goofy costume or be one of those types to have a super good looking and creepy costume and jumpscares kids as they try to reach for the bowl.

FUCK IT, he decides to do both. this year and the next.

safe to say, you gave him a new tradition??? like visiting his house really is a trick or treat but this time it's in the area of if he will put in the effort or not depending on the year.

at a certain point this man is committed to stealing the show???

all you gotta do is come back to replace the candy lol.

not what you were expecting but it works out?

BONUS: you help with the fake-out sometimes by pranking the kids and reassuring them that the “statue” doesn’t move. it's even better when the parents get scared too.

Settling Arguments

{Mario and Luigi are fighting over a video game, their dad thinks they’re acting like children, so he decides the only way to settle this childish argument, is to challenge them with something childish..}     “YOU CHEATED!” Luigi yelled.

“I won fair and square! You’re just jealous cause you’re bad!” Mario yelled back. 

The bros were currently chasing each other through their family’s apartment. They ended up at a stand still at the edges of the dining table both trying to guess the other’s next moves.

“No! I had you weakened and you moved out of the way of my shot!” Luigi pointed.

“Sorry I know how to squid roll properly!”

“I do, too!”

“That’s why you end up doing a normal jump and get killed a lot huh?” Mario smirked.

“Whatever! Plus you held onto the rainmaker way longer than you’re supposed to, and ran away like a coward!”

“I held onto it and ran so I’d run the timer out because we already won!”

“No you didn’t!!! You don’t win until the match is over!” Luigi stomped his foot like a child.

“And guess who had the victory screen at the end? MY TEAM! SO BOOM!” Mario made an over dramatic boom gesture with his hand. 

Luigi was about to make a run for Mario at the end of the table, when suddenly a hand was on his shoulder.

“What in the hell is going on here?” a voice said.

It was their dad.

“Mario cheated in a video game!” Luigi whined.

“I did not! You’re just a sore loser,” Mario replied, folding his arms in a kind of cocky gesture.

“Really guys? A video game? How old are you two? Don’t you have a job to go to?” Their dad said.

“It’s Sunday,” Luigi replied.

Damn, dad was hoping reminding them of their business would get them out of the house, but not today. He pinched the bridge of his nose between his fingers, and sighed.

“Come on, what happened to fighting like men?” he said.

“You want me to punch Mario?”

“No! I meant having an adult conversation. Since that’s apparently not gonna happen, though, and you’re acting like children, then you’re going to fight like children,” dad said.

Mario and Luigi looked at each other curiously.

    They followed their dad into the living room where the three of them stood in the middle of the room.

“Now, when you two were young, y’all were inseparable, but you still used to fight about absolutely anything! Do y’all remember what I would do to settle arguments and give y’all a ‘winner’ between you two?” 

The boys shook their heads.

“Really? It happened pretty often. So, what I did was sit you two on my lap, make you hold your arms up, and I would tickle both of you until one of you put your arms down. The first one to put his arms down, lost. And there were no and, ifs, or buts afterward.”

Mario and Luigi silently gulped a bit.

“Now, obviously you two are too big and old to sit in your papa’s lap, so I’m gonna change it up. Mario, stand here.”

Mario stood in the middle of the two.

“Lift your arms up.”

Mario did so.

“Now interlock your fingers.”

His dad grabbed his arms together, and Mario locked his fingers together in a fist.

“There,” his dad said stepping back, “you stand there, and keep your arms up as long as you can while Luigi gets to tickle the crap outta you!”

Luigi’s face lit up. He was going to get to tickle his older brother with no repercussions?! Oh yes! He practically skipped over to Mario. Mario gave him a side eye.

“Can I tickle him anywhere?!” he exclaimed.

“Yup! Anywhere you can reach. Now don’t get too excited, Lu, you’re next,” his dad threatened playfully. 

Luigi got a bit nervous at this, but was quickly pulled out of it when remembering why he was standing behind Mario.

“I’m gonna start a timer. Mario, you can laugh, move, anything you want except for running and putting your arms down. As soon as those arms go down, that’s time. Whoever held them up the longest in the end, wins.”

“Got it, now can we get this over with? My arms are already getting tired,” Mario sighed.

“Sure. Start… now!”

Luigi wasted no time skittering his fingers over Mario’s sides up to his ribs. Instantly targeting his top ribs and armpits. Mario held strong for about two seconds before bursting out in giggles. He stomped his feet, and clamped his fingers tighter together. Since they were wearing their lounge clothes, there was very little protection for their bare skin. As Luigi tickled Mario’s armpits, he saw that his shirt lifted up a bit due to his arms being above his head causing his belly to peek out of it. Luigi’s fingers instantly gravitated towards Mario’s stomach skittering across the bottom of it that was peeking out. 

“Waihihit! NOT THEHEHERE!!” Mario squealed as Luigi dove his hands under his shirt, squeezing his belly.

Luigi’s hands skittered across his tummy to his hips squeezing them gently. Mario doubled over but kept his arms above his head.

“Oh come on, you know you wanna protect yourself. Just do it. Clamp your arms down on my hands, it ain’t gonna hurt ya,” Luigi teased. 

Mario shook his head, “n-NOT A CHAHAHANCE- EHEHEHEHE!!”

Mario snapped his body back up when Luigi suddenly went under his shirt, and back to his armpits. His fingers skittered and poked all over his upper body rapidly to keep him from getting used to any sensations. Mario could feel his arms slipping down, and he almost gave up.

“You made it past sixty seconds!” his dad exclaimed.

Mario shot his arms back up with newfound determination. There was no way Luigi would beat past a minute! He tried to make it longer just to make sure. 

“LU! S-STAHAHAP THAHAHAT! STOP S-SWITCHING SPOHAHAHATS!”

“What’s wrong, big bro? Too ticklish, hm? If I stayed in one spot, you’d get used to it, so I gotta switch it up a bit!” Luigi smiled.

“I- I WOULDN’T HAHAHAHA! OH MY GOHAHAHAD!!”

His nerves were screaming at him to give up, but he was determined. That was until Luigi snuck a hand between his shoulder to his neck. Mario squealed, scrunched his neck, and recoiled. His arms came down, swatting Luigi’s hands away.

“TIME!” their dad announced.

Mario doubled over panting, his arms wrapping around his middle to protect himself.

“One minute and twenty seconds!”

“Whoo!.. b-beat that!” Mario huffed.

Luigi giggled but was visibly nervous. He knew he was going to lose this. Sure, Mario was pretty ticklish, but him? He was a walking tickle spot..

    “Ha! Bet, I will!” Luigi scoffed confidently.

He took Mario’s place in the middle of the room, and raised his arms, interlocking his fingers. Mario rolled his eyes and grinned at this faux confidence as he stepped behind his little brother.

“Ready?” 

“Ready.”

“And… go!”

Mario instantly dove his fingers into Luigi’s underarms. Luigi screeched and almost failed instantly, but shoved his arms back up. 

The good thing about this whole challenge is they both knew each other’s tickle spots. Obviously after being brothers for years they knew exactly how to target each other. The bad thing was usually Luigi, being the younger brother, was the one to get tickled to pieces every time they had a tickle fight which would always just end up being “tickle Luigi.” Luigi knew where Mario was most ticklish, but he also knew exactly where Luigi was most ticklish, and exactly how to tickle him to make him completely succumb and go crazy. Perks of being the asshole older brother he guessed.

Luigi twisted in Mario’s grasp, but held steady. He screamed when his ribs were suddenly tased. God how he hated when Mario would do that. Just two fingers quickly, and harshly vibrating between his ribs were enough to kill the man. Luigi tightened his fists above his head. He dropped them onto the top of his head trying to lessen the sensations.“He put his arms down!” Mario exclaimed seeing his dad not react.

“Nope, they’re still up,” he replied.

“You didn’t say we could do that!” 

“You didn’t ask.”

Mario rolled his eyes, and dug into Luigi’s tummy. Now he was determined to win. Luigi shrieked, and doubled over, but like Mario, kept his arms up. He held a leg up trying to protect his stomach.

“Ah ah ah, fratellino, no protecting yourself!” Mario teased as he squeezed his kneecap making him drop back down. Mario skated his fingers over Luigi’s bare belly. 

“PLEASE I-IT’S SO BAHAHAHAD!! N-NAHAHAT MY TUMMY PLEHEHEASE!”

“Ohohoh yes! Is your tummy ticklish, Weeg? Got a ticklish tum?! Sucks for you!”

Luigi’s face turned bright red at the teasing. God, why’d that always get to him so much?!

“30 seconds till a minute!” dad said.

No way Luigi was gonna get to over a minute. Mario was not going to lose to the most ticklish person on the planet! Time to kick it up.

Mario squeezed Luigi’s hips as he began to walk around to face him.

“W-WHAT ARE YOU DOIHIHIHING?!” 

“Oh nothing, there was nothing against changing positions was there?” Mario called back to his dad.

“Nope!”

Mario grinned evilly at Luigi whose giggles became nervous. He tickled up his sides then shoved his hands onto the sides of his neck fluttering his fingers gently. Luigi threw his head back, wheezing, and scrunching up. He was sure that digging into his shoulders would break him, but Luigi kept himself together. Even raising his arms back up fully.

“You passed a minute, Weeg!” dad exclaimed.

Oh he was not going to win this.

Mario thought fast, then quickly shoved Luigi’s shirt up to his chest revealing his stomach. Luigi felt the breeze, and tried to back away.

“NO! M-MAHAHARIO! DO NOHOHOT PLEASE!!”

Without hesitation, Mario grabbed Luigi’s sides to hold him where he was, while still squeezing them, took a quick deep breath, and blew as hard as he could on his tummy.

Luigi screamed then cackled as his whole body convulsed and his arms shot down trying to push Mario off of his poor ticklish belly. 

“TIME!” 

Luigi collapsed on his butt on the ground panting and still laughing hard.

“What did he get?” Mario asked practically running over to the timer on the phone.

“One minute.. and seventeen seconds!”

“YES!”

 “NO!”

“I WIN! HAHA!” Mario pumped his fist.

Luigi pulled himself up from the ground defeatedly.

“Congrats, now if you’ll excuse me, I hear leftover lasagna calling my name,” their dad said getting up from the recliner.

“Wait! No that’s not fair, let me see-”

“Sorry, can’t hear you over lasagna!” 

The boys were left in the living room. One gloating and the other sulking.

“Aw it’s okay Weeg, it’s not your fault you’re too ticklish for your own good,” Mario giggled.

“No, you came around front to blow a raspberry on me! You cheated again!” Luigi exclaimed.

“Ah fratellino, always will be the sore loser little brother..”

Luigi glared at him.

“I’m only joking! Come on, you know it’s not that serious. You’re not actually mad, are you?” Mario asked.

Luigi rolled his eyes then smirked, “no. But you should run.”

Mario widened his eyes, and tried to get up, but Luigi caught his leg.

“Whoops too slow!” Luigi gleamed.

Mario struggled to pull his leg out of Luigi’s grasp but Luigi was already locking it under his arm. Mario hopped on one leg, eventually stumbling down onto his butt on the floor.

“You good?” Luigi asked, making sure he wasn’t hurt.

“Yeah but l-let go!”

“Ha! As if. You deserve this.”

Luigi pulled off Mario’s shoe, and instantly scribbled his nails on his foot making Mario snort and fall onto his back instantly cackling.

Laughter could be heard from both boys for at least another hour before it quieted down. 

There was no final winner.

Your anon about Spanish ccs and MCC and how creators suddenly feel like it’s the “in thing” to interact with or collab with Spanish creators and it’s funny bc it’s not a trend these are real people and these English ccs think it’s some trend bc dtk+ did squid game and have gotten a lot of positive overlap in communities (I don’t include Q bc I consider him to be a Spanish and English cc he’s in a category on his own) and how the ones who played in squid game did it just to have fun and meet new people or play with people they’ve already met or have mutual friends w. And now even like on Hasans new podcast he brought up Spanish ccs like 😭 damn y’all wanted to pretend no one but English streamers existed until a month ago I wonder why 😒 like don’t get me wrong I really like a lot of this overlap and interactions are fun but damn I feel bad bc it looks like the ones happening in the last week have purely been because of clout after squid game and they have no real interest on these ccs as people but their numbers and the ability to go oh look who I have collabed with which makes me cherish the dtkq+ circle more bc they have made genuine friends who they talk to and play with offline just for them without having to profit off of it. Anyway I have haterisms too anon anything dtkq+ does a very specific group of people have to follow and copy and then every other English cc joins in and it really shows who’s a trend setter sorry I’ll say it 🤷🏻‍♀️

you have put my thoughts into words exactly

just finished Don’t Worry Darling…

Y’ALL IM IN AWE. THIS MOVIE IS SO DAMN GOOD

obviously i’d heard it’s good and when i saw it’s one Netflix and had the motivation to watch i decided i’d better watch it then or i never would and honestly i didn’t think i’d be super into it

definitely one of my top five movies now

the acting is AMAZING Florence Pugh never fails ✋ and Harry Styles was great too- the car scene?! UGH SO GOOD

and the soundtrack was amazing everyone knows music adds so much to what the audience feels but guys- THIS WAS SO GOOD kinda reminded me of Squid Game’s music but the tone was so different cause of the visuals. in Squid Game that music gives you some kind of excited anticipation, but in DWD it has you curled up, tense, and ready to run. that shit kept me on my toes way more than those hallucinations(?) ever did.

speaking of ^ they confused me (mostly at first) but they add so much- it really helps you understand how Alice is feeling and why it’s making her feel so out of place and on edge

AND THE PLOT TWISTS PEOPLE GOOD GRIEF (spoilers here) as i mentioned the cat scene earlier, when Alice is being taken away, my jaw was dropped, my fingers lax, and my eyes wide. i was suspicious when they first got in and he said “I’m sorry” but their earlier conversation about leaving reassured me. until he started crying and the red guys game- HER SCREAMING AS SHE WAS PULLED AWAY AND HIS SOBS AND RAGE- HOLY SHIT GUYS IT WAS AMAZING

and when she found out the truth Jack made me so mad and then she killed him and i was like YES ALICE LETS GO (though i thought he was just unconscious at first) AND WHEN BUNNY CAME TO HELP (she kinda seemed a little crazy when talking about her kids ngl) AND BILL’S CHARACTER BREAK “this wasn’t supposed to happen they said this wouldn’t happen” AND THE OTHER GUY YELLING AT HIM UGH I WAS SO SHOCKED AND READY TO GOOOO

but it was so good 10/10 recommend

#don’t worry darling #dwd #movie recommendation #movie review #god i loved it

[beepfuckingbeeprichie]

Okay okay here me out. What if, after the events of the move, Louisa and Isabela end up switching dynamics?

Louisa always portrayed herself as hard as stone, tough, a fighter. And while I have no doubt she loves her gift, she feels the (surface) pressure to always be the defender of the family. She sings about protecting her family, fighting Cerberus like Hercules did, and even busting up the iceberg that sank the titanic.

She doesn’t want any of that! She wants fluffy clouds!! Unicorn donkeys (unidonkeys?)!! f you’ve seen the deleted scene/concept art that features Luisa’s room, it’s made completely of stone and minimalistic. But there’s a secret door in the back to the room she’s REALLY always wanted. It has an AMUSEMENT PARK.

As a sharp contrast, Isabela spent her entire life being pretty and perfect and graceful. Limiting herself to just flowers bc that’s all they’ve ever wanted from her. But when she finally gets to her song and starts pushing her limits, what does she grow? Spikey plants, cacti, strangling vines, even carnivorous plants. And her flower punches Mariano in the face (poor baby. He just has so much love inside :( )

You wanna know another baddy with plants that was underestimated?

Luisa wouldn’t have to shoulder everything alone, she could have the time for the joy and simple pleasures she dreams about. Isabela could be (and I think would enjoy being) the family’s protector.

Of course, she wouldn’t shoulder the burden alone. She has her family :)

P.S. Luisa would absolutely LOVE boybands

EREN JAEGER:

Eren is the type of boyfriend that would pull up in front of your house at 3 am and ask if you want to go cruise with him

He’s the type of guy that would make you sneak out just to smoke in his car and just vedge out because you’ve had a stressful day at work or school

He’s a fucking stoner, no doubt about that

His love language is physical touch for sure

He cannot get enough of you, and he’ll always have his arm around your waist or petting your head

He does this thing where he’ll brush away some hairs from your face whenever you talk to him

He just loves looking at your face! He thinks you’re so fucking cute, and he will not hesitate to remind you

Ngl, I feel like he probably gets too emotionally attached to characters when you watch shows together

Y’all watched Squid Game, and Eren was a mess during the marble game

The physical embodiment of “punching the air rn >:(“

WILL SMOKE A BOWL AFTERWARDS TO CALM HIS NERVES LMAO CHILL FOO

Eren does NOT take Zoom classes seriously and will probably join the call on his phone just to head over to your place instead of paying attention

Meanwhile, you’re just sitting in your class actually paying attention, and Eren just

“OKAY, I PULL UP”

You’re not too mad at him, though, because he did bring you some of your favorite fast food

One day, you were scrolling through Instagram, and you noticed one of his old accounts pop up on your suggested page. 

“Angry_at_da_w0rld” was the username of his old Instagram from his emo high-school days

You never leave him alone about it, and he just rolls his eyes and covers his ears with a smile on his face

“C’mon, babe! Everyone had an emo phase.”

Speaking of high school, Eren used to be on the wrestling and weightlifting team, and he still participates in weightlifting while attending college

Despite listening to a lot of emo bands in high school, his music taste is eclectic and varies based on his mood

The two of you work out together almost every day

He even got you into kickboxing! :)

Really sweet bf that just wants you to be happy and enjoy your youth together with him

ARMIN ARLERT:

The boy you’d want to bring home to your parents!

Model bf

I feel like his love language would either be words of affirmation or physical touch

Armin would literally drop everything he was doing if it meant he would get to spend some time with you

His favorite song is rises the moon by liana flores because he loves how your voice sounds when you sing along

This boy is so smart when it comes to academic knowledge but is so clueless when it comes to handling his own emotions

He over-analyzes everything and tries to pick up on your body language to see if you’re in the mood to be cuddled or left alone

Whenever Armin gets sad or stressed out, he squeezes you for hours because hugging you is literally so heart warming to him

He kinda needy tho because he gets stressed so easily smh go eat something bby

Armin likes to help you out with any schoolwork you need help with!

The two of you are in similar majors anyway, so you end up planning your schedules out together and taking the same classes to help each other out

He likes to send you cute text messages while you’re in your Zoom lectures

“You look so pretty today in your little Zoom square :) Wanna come over and bake some macarons with me after class?”

THIS BOY LOVES TO BAKE WITH YOU!!

He loves trying out new recipes with you :) Even if they’re hella fucking technical and require years of experience to perfect

This boy loves peppering soft kisses all over your face and neck since he adores those cute little giggles you make

Armin is also such a history nerd. You’ll be laying down in bed with him, and he’ll just be ranting passionately about some weird diplomatic ruling that fucked up a country

You have no idea what he’s talking about whenever he goes into one of his little rants, but you think it’s so cute that he probably spent hours reading about history facts just to tell you about them!

He’s so romantic and sentimental about everything

He remembers every anniversary or any important date that is related to your relationship

“Happy anniversary for the first time you slept over in my dorm room!” “Oh, how could I forget about the anniversary of our first time?” “We went to the beach for our first date so happy one year anniversary since our first date!”

ARMIN, WHAT THE FUCK

But for real, though, he probably thinks about getting married to you once the two of you have finished college and had career prospects

You are his first love, and he intends on making you his only love

JEAN KIRSTEIN

Jean is a motherfucking car guy, and you cannot argue with me on this

He’s the type of partner to teach you how to drive stick

Or just drive in general

I feel like he has messy-ass handwriting

On your first date, Jean came revving up to your driveway with his speakers blasting the intro to N-Side by Steve Lacy (pls go listen to it. Idk why, but i always think about Jean when I bump it)

He’s so fucking corny. He likes to show off his car to impress you, and he even tailored a specific playlist for you whenever you guys go cruise

Since he’s a car guy, he’ll definitely help you out with your car if you’re ever having issues with it

He’s the type of boyfriend to spend HOURS to get ready. He cares about his hair a lot and even mooches off of your skincare products

Speaking of skincare, the two of you will have a skincare night where you’ll just wear character face masks and roleplay because y’all are dumbasses lol

He’s a pretty boy and he likes to be reminded of that!

He’s lowkey needier than Armin and will constantly ask you how he looks just so he can fish for some compliments

But it’s okay because he’s such a fine stallion ;))))))

HE’S STILL A MOMMA’S BOY SO HE WILL NOT HAVE ANY IDEA HOW TO COOK OR CLEAN FOR THE LIFE OF HIM

You’ll have to be the one to teach him how to cook and clean, but he doesn’t mind since he gets to spend time so close to you

He likes kissing your forehead since he feels like it’s a gesture that screams “I’ve got you, babe :)” vibes

Jean loves it when he has his head in your lap, and you play with his hair

He trusts nobody with his hair so, this is an especially high honor

Like Eren, Jean isn’t too interested in his Zoom classes so he just ditches to nap at your place instead or to play video games on your switch

He drags you to e-sports tournaments and he always EATS

He spends so much time on your damn nintendo that he has perfected his Smash fighting technique

Jean feels most at home whenever he’s in your arms since he feels so safe and secure

One of THE most loyal kings out there

CONNIE SPRINGER

He spends literal hours on TikTok because he gets stuck in a loop of watching stupid shit

Connie will literally send you TikTok’s despite laying down right next to you 

SNACK KING!!

After spending so much time with Sasha, he knows better than to show up to your place without some of your favorite snacks

It’s definitely one of those relationships where you feel like you’re dating your best friend

Whenever he’s at work, he’ll send you stupid, blurry pictures of himself in the bathroom

He comforts you by trying to make you laugh or smile :)

He asks you to shave his head bc you find it so satisfying and he just likes how gentle your touch is

HE LOVES TO WRESTLE YOU PLAYFULLY

Whenever you come over, he gets so fucking excited! He’ll tackle you onto his bed and start tickling you because he thinks it’s cute how giggly you get

He takes you on a a lot of movie dates! He’s kinda dumb tho so he won’t understand the plot to Care Bears 3D, but he’ll laugh at all of the fart jokes

I feel like Connie is also a stoner?? Jean and Sasha sometimes join him but it’s more of his thing

When he gets munchies, he’ll make total abominations

You’ll be facetiming him while he’s zooted and he’s just fumbling around the kitchen while giggling like an idiot

“Babe, babe! Check it. This is my newest...mothafuckin’ creation.” while holding up his phone to capture a mess of assorted chips mixed with sourcream and food dye

“Connie, why did you add food dye?” 

“It adds flavor, sexy”

If there’s ever a time where you’re feeling burned out, he’ll probably plan out a trip to Disneyland or smth and then surprise you a week afterwards :)

He’s definitely still a child at heart but that’s what you love about him. He never fails to make you smile!

Has probably spilled the beans about wanting to get married to you when he’s high ;) There’s not a lot that goes on in his head, but you’re always running around in there

LEVI ACKERMANN

Levi’s honestly such a sweetheart to you

It’s extremely hard for him to open up and develop a trusting, healthy relationship

So, for you to be patient with his initial stubbornness makes him absolutely melt

He’s honestly such a funny old man tho

You’ll be showing him something on TikTok and he just stares back with bewilderment

“Who are these people? Why is she floating?”

Since he’s a simple man, the two of you just sit around and watch a movie together 

Parallel play is crucial to Levi. He absolutely cannot get any of his work done if you’re not in the room with him

He really values his alone time but if you’re ever feeling especially needy, he’ll let out a knowing sigh and motion for you to come sit on his lap

Levi loves kissing your hands. While he thinks everything about you is beautiful, he has a strange fixation with how pretty your hands look

HE WILL THROW A HISSY FIT IF YOU SO MUCH AS SNEEZE ANYWHERE NEAR SOMEWHERE HE CLEANED

“Oi! You knew that I had just spray-cleaned there >:( I hope you’ll enjoy a dirty kitchen for the next week”

He never lives up to his threats. Will literally go to clean the kitchen like .5 seconds afterwards while glaring at you menacingly

Sometimes, you feel too intimidated to cook because you know this guy will give you shit for leaving a single crumb on the stove

He’s an introvert so he’d prefer to stay home and spend a quiet, nice evening with you

He also likes to take day trips to visit Farlan and Isabel since they live so far away. Normally, you’ll come along and end up getting drunk with his old buddies lol

Levi isn’t too big on alcohol but he loves seeing you get along with his precious friends so well

Okay but he smiles the most when he’s with you. He literally does not trust anyone else enough to show his raw emotions to

He’s not too big on romantic touch and will instead value time spent with you over physical affection

Marriage doesn’t cross his mind often, but he isn’t shy to admit that he’s considered the option a few times.

ZEKE JAEGER

Dumb monkey man fr

Probably has undiagnosed ADHD and will not shut the fuck up about random facts he hyperfixated on while you were asleep

“Hey, did you know that there’s only one type of monke in Europe?”

“Yes. And his name is Zeke Jaeger. Please go to sleep, babe”

Zeke’s an eccentric guy but you know he really cares

He loves having his arms around your waist and inhaling your perfume

Also, never expect to shower alone. This man will boldly walk in and start a conversation with you about the stock market while butt-ass naked

His love language is gift-giving and will spare no expense in getting you stuff he feels like you would like

You mentioned wanting to try out some new makeup product? Zeke will gladly go to the nearest shop and be completely clueless as to what he’s looking for

He probably asks you to sit on his back while he does push-ups, it helps him stay motivated!

He still smokes but he’ll be sure to be away from you whenever he decides to out of respect

Zeke is probably among the best chefs in the world??

He’s a really well-read guy and he enjoys spending his tims with his nose in some cookbooks

In the beginning, cooking would be Zeke’s form of alone time. But as the relationship progressed, cooking became your favorite couple’s pastime.

He’s a huge fucking Star Wars nerd. AND he’s a George Lucas fanboy because he’s dumb like that

He dragged you to watch the sequels and you had to hear him yell about how he thought Rey was a Mary Sue, etc

Although Zeke is a crazy geek, he loves getting into the hobbies you like! You’re into a new show? He’ll read all of the wikis ans watch the show with you just to have fan discourse after each episode

Zeke is a needy cuddler. If you ever turn away from him in your sleep, he’ll just grumble and turn over to trap you underneath his arm

He also constantly mentions marriage once you’ve got your career goals set :) The man knows exactly what he wants!

I hate to say this too but Zeke always gave me MAJOR Seth Rogen vibes

REINER BRAUN

MUSCLE MAN BF!!

Y’all will literally have plans for going on a date but this mf will shoot you a text 10 mins before he was supposed to pick you up saying “sorry babe, GAINZ! SWOLE GANG COME THRUUU”

He’ll make it up to you by buying you some ice cream or dessert of your choice

Reiner gives the best hugs. His arms and chest are so firm oh my lord. MANS IS BUILT LIKE A BRICK HOUSE

He is an extremely attentive boyfriend. He will immediately know that something is wrong based on how your eyes just don’t have that sparkle on day

He likes bringing home some surprises for you. Some examples include a dog, flowers, chocolates, starbucks, and even steaks!

Reiner is honestly such a grill god. He’s training to become the ultimate grill dad for when he finally becomes a papa

He loves cooking you really expensive steaks because he’s passionate about the process. Plus, he loves the way how your face lights up whenever you take your first bite!

He always kisses you whenever you leave. Whether you’re leaving for work or leaving the room to grab some water, you’ve gotta give the man some sugar

He’s the type of boyfriend to take you to a nice, secluded spot whenever you’re feeling angry or stressed. He feels most at home in nature and he figures that getting away from the house is nice once in a while

He picks at his fingers a lot when he’s nervous so holding his hand will always snap him out of his rut

Despite his size, he’s just a big teddy bear! He loves being babied so much. He just wants to be held by you and cradled in his lap because he feels so safe around you :(

He’ll definitely take you on fun dates! Go-karting, off-roading, indoor skydiving; literally anything tailored for adrenaline junkies

He offers extremely good advice as helps you through a lot of friend drama

He likes to hold your hand firmly in public because he has this irrational fear that he’ll lose you in the crowd or sum

BRUH REINER WOULD’VE PROPOSED AFTER LIKE A FEW MONTHS OF MOVING IN TOGETHER (you say yes tho bc he’s such an amazing man ughhh)

PORCO GALLIARD

Recovering fuckboy bf

Being with you is what makes him want to change his playa ways in the first place

You always steal his clothes and he scolds you for it constantly, but he’ll never admit that he secretly likes seeing you in his clothes

Like Jean, Porco will spend literal hours in the bathroom getting ready

He likes it when you call him ‘your pretty boy’ since it boosts his confidence so much!

Calls you his queen because he thinks you’re absolutely stunning and will go to the ends of the earth for you

He’s definitely either a popular Youtuber or streamer. He just has that sort of personality that makes him popular

Porco likes driving around at night just to explore and find new places he can take you

The two of you had driven to the beach at midnight before, just to get high and talk about the meaning of life

He’s not a huuuge stoner but he likes to smoke once in a while because he thinks it makes him cool

He loves taking you to arcades/bowling alleys. He’s competitive as fuck and you’re always down to challenge him to a round of Street Fighter

Porco listens to hype beast music and you think it’s so fucking annoying

“Bae! Bump that shiit!” 

“No, Porco. This shit is trash.”

He will get very offended if you mock his music taste

Tbh, this boy is a big eater and will always take you out to eat whenever you go on a date.

AND HE WILL ALWAYS PAY FOR YOU, DO NOT BOTHER TRYING TO SPLIT THE CHECK

He love love loves spoiling you with gifts!

He worked a 40 hour work week just so he could save up enough money to take you to Disneyland :)))

He absolutely loves showering with you and loves holding you under the water. He says it feels like he’s caught a mermaid or sum bc he’s probably zooted as fuck

He’s really clingy and will literally get jealous of your phone.

“Baaabe get off you phone :( Me want cuddle”

Porco probably brought up marriage as a joke one day but then he realized that he definitely wanted to follow through on that

BERTHOLDT HOOVER

Museum dates galore!

Bert is super cultured and extremely well-read so he’d want to take you on dates that he finds enriching

He likes taking you to different coffee shops around the area because he likes to refer to himself as a ‘connoisseur’ 

You think Bert can get pretentious and he feels that that’s a fair assumption

You tend to be big spoon most of the time because Bertholdt would CRUSH you if you were little spoon

Sometimes, you’ll have pillows dividing the two of you just to ensure your safety from being smooshed

He’s very protective despite his seemingly docile nature. If he sees anything make you remotely upset, he will include himself into the picture to see if he can help you in any way

You always have to be patching him up because this poor man runs into low doors and ceilings all of the time. Plus, he’s extremely clumsy

He’s definitely a morning person, and his ideal morning would be described as spending time with you and watching as the sun rises in your twinkling eyes

He probably recites gushy, romantic poetry to you because he’s too shy to speak bluntly

But you still think the thought is super endearing and cute

He slow dances with you late into the night. He’ll have one arm slung around your waist and the other clasping around your fingers gently

He sings you to sleep whenever you’re feeling upset. He’ll lay you in his lap, stroke you hair, and sing one of your favorite tunes to soothe any negative tension you’re feeling

He’s such a good source of support. He will let you lay on him and sob into his chest if you flunked a really important exam and he’ll only hush you and tell you that he’s got you and that he’s here for you

He loves it when you wear heels out! He thinks you look absolutely stunning in them, and he’ll still be taller than you to some degree

Bert thinks that talking about marriage is too straightforward and tends to shy away from discussing it too often. But he really wouldn’t mind spending the rest of his days with someone as amazing as you

RED LIGHT, GREEN LIGHT — BLLK

bllk in squid game!

warnings: implied death, squid game challenge spoilers (some actual plot spoilers too), unedited

characters included: karasu, isagi, bachira, sae, rin, nagi, oliver, reo, zantetsu, shidou, nanase, hiori, tokimitsu, eita, and yukimiya!!

notes: have y’all read the latest tr ch😕 rin ate

he knows better than to trust some random businessman in a train station offering up a rather large sum of money just to play one game. he also knows that if he loses, he has no money to complete the wager. he just walks away from the businessman.

— reo, sae, chigiri

he doesn’t even make it to the island since he somehow got the location of the meetup wrong, so he was waiting to be picked up all night. he only realized that he was at the wrong place when morning came, and by then it was too late.

— nanase, tokimitsu

he gets out in red light, green light. similarly to those two guys who were joking around, he is also having a friendly competitive with his friend, unknowing of the consequences.

— karasu, eita (more so he just didn’t wanna be there anymore)

he finds a way to cheat in every game, but still fails anyways. tug of war is his downfall since it’s hard to cheat with a large team. he would throw insults at the other team and try to get them to falter though.

— raichi, shidou

he was forced to go by a friend or family member but now as made it really far. he’s at the glass bridge and was lucky somebody who chose a lower number!

— oliver (is probably afraid of heights so he’s not doing so well right now), barou, niko

has probably jumped on of the masked men before. they weren’t threatening to kill him, he had actually won that game, he just did it for his own entertainment. it probably doesn’t end well.

— karasu, shidou, barou (does it because he’s pissed), zantetsu

he steals other people’s food, he’s a menace to everybody participating. he’s smart too and knows how to play the games. he listens intently and tries to find loopholes within the game in order to win.

— rin, nagi

after the first time they went to the facility then voted to terminate the game, he didn’t come back. he didn’t want to risk his life. he definitely took it to the police and got some weird stares from them.

— hiori, isagi, bachira, yukimiya

Ten Characters I Fell in Love With in 2021

Tagged by @maystea! Thanks, hun!

Oof this was harder than it should have been, and I didn't know if it was supposed to just be limited to kdramas, but that's what everyone else seemed to be doing, so that's what I focused on. With the exception of the #1 spot, these are not in order of favorites. (I played around with the list too much after 1. for it to be in any kind of order.)

1. Lee Dongsik (beyond evil)

The character who brought me back into the kdrama game. He hit all of my buttons: angsty, tortured, fucked up, emotionally messy, kind, loving, loyal, handsome, bratty. He has it all. He is everything to me. What else is there to even say. I've never wanted a character to be real so badly in my life.

2. Kang Yohan (the devil judge)

I did not anticipate loving this character as much as I did. But from the very first episode I was done for. He’s complex, and fucked up. He’s clever and smart and loving and generous and scary and also bratty and everything you never thought could fit perfectly into one person, it’s all there. He surprises me every time I rewatch the show. And I’m surprised I can somehow manage to fall more in love with him every time.

3. Jung Sunah (the devil judge)

My literal wife. The light of my life. One of my all time favorite villains. She’s twisted, and complex. She scares me and she also makes me want to wrap her up and keep her safe. I would die for her.

4. Seong Gihun (squid game)

The man I've gone to bat for more than any of the other characters on this list. The good, flawed, lovable, tragic man I love so so much. Maybe my love is a reaction to how much the majority of people seem to hate him, but I really am just terribly in love with him and how good he is. He's so human, and I think that's what people forget when they analyze (and condemn) his actions. He's a humanist and I love him for that.

5. Han Jaeho (the merciless)

The last of the Merciless Evil Devil From Hell dilfs that I met. And one that hit me as hard as I expected. I knew I was going to love him, but I didn't know how much. He's the perfect combination of Mujin and Dongsik, and I was helpless to fall for that. I love his snark and his attitude. I love how intimidating he is. I love how sexy he is. I love how twisted and tragic he is. He's my bisexual king.

6. Choi Mujin (my name)

What do I even have to say about Choi Mujin. He ruined me. He's made me useless. I have nothing else to say.

7. Kang Sol A (law school)

Ha! Y’all didn’t even know I watched this show did you. But I did. And I ugly cried through the last half of it. But the one character that hooked me immediately, the one that I will never forget as long as I live, is Sol A. She’s cute, and weird, and snarky, and messy, and smart, and clever, and she made me laugh. Like…she made me laugh and I fell in love.

8. Yang Jonghoon/Yangcrates (law school)

My dude. My motherfuckin GUY. Of course I was gonna fall for the professor. If I have ONE TYPE, it’s sexy hardass professor with a heart of gold. He spent every second teaching those kids. He spent every second making sure they had the tools they needed and understood how to use them. He’s so smart and so mysterious and so scary please I hate school so so much he stresses me out. And that’s why I want to marry him.

9. Lawyer Ko Inguk (the devil judge)

I'm literally not even explaining myself here. If you know, you know.

10. Jung Taeju (my name)

I struggled between Sangwoo and Taeju for a place on the list, and in the end I had to go with my boy Taeju. I simply have too much at stake in his well-being to not make him a priority on my list of favorite characters. He's mysterious, only because we know literally nothing about him. We're lucky we know his name, to be honest. We're lucky we got as much as we did. But we got just enough to get invested. And I have, and will continue to go to bat for him for as long as I live.

Honorable mentions:

The entire Manyang gang, you expect me to choose? (beyond evil)

Yoon Donghoon (my name)

Jeon Pildo (my name)

Yooyi (deliver us from evil)

Kim Innam (deliver us from evil)

Player 062/the math teacher (squid game) -- i almost put this bitch on the main list, I cannot lie

Cho Sangwoo (squid game)

Hwang Inho (squid game)

Hong Namil (dr. brain)

Lee Kangmu (dr. brain)

Gong Soohyuk (the silent sea)

Perry Park (kill me heal me)

I will tag @hakjoos, @bobafvcks, @godotismissingx, @noxdwn, @aellanyx, and @leonnamc

#the kdrama life #the devil judge #beyond evil #my name #squid game #law school kdrama #dr. brain #the silent sea #the merciless #and yes yes i know there is a decided lack of women on this list #that's my own problem and not yours #move on #i'm addressing the fact that neither moonjo or jongwoo made it to the list at all #i'm pointing that out myself #and i'm also adding that i have no logical reason why #they just...didn't make the cut

[space-lynn]

Just finished Squid Game and episode 6 messed me up. So, to cope, I remembered this tweet and decided to write a snippet based off of it.

Enjoy reading! (TW: Major Character Death)

~~~~~

“If you get out of here with the money, what will you do with it?” player 240 asked, lazily looking at player 067.

“I’ll buy a house for me and my older brothers,” 067 started. “They’ve done so much for me, I wanted to repay them.”

“You know you can do that and so much more with 40 billion dollars, right? Anything else you want to do? Isn’t there some place you want to go to?”

“Hawaii.”

“Hawaii, huh?” 240 wondered, a curious lilt to her voice.

“Yeah. It looked so… nice, from the magazines my brothers had,” 067 muttered.

“That’s a big dream. You should have a Mai Tai while you’re there!”

“Mai Tai?”

“Yeah. You haven’t tried one?”

067 shook her head.

“Well, damn. Some of the bars where I’m from serve Mai Tai. I don’t think they’re as good as the ones in Hawaii, but they’re definitely something. Once we get out of here, I’m taking you to one of those bars.”

“...”

“Ah… Right,” 240 huffed, the joy in her voice dimming, “We can’t get out of here together.”

-----

“What about you? What will you do with the money if you leave here?” 067 asked her opponent(?). Friend was better, even if they’d only known one another for a day and a half.

“I hadn’t thought much about it. I only came here because I had nowhere else to go, after my parents disowned me. I haven’t really thought about what I’ll do with it if I get out,” 240 said, before she grinned. “Why don’t we go to Hawaii together?”

“...”

“Sorry. My mistake,” she sighed, the reality of their situation killing the mood.

“It’s alright.”

-----

“Sasha Waybright.”

“Hm?”

“That’s my name. What about you? What’s yours?”

“I’m Marcy Wu!”

-----

“Hey, Sashimi!” she chirped, smiling. Tears dripped down her face. It was a fitting nickname for the fiery-tempered blonde, and she’d just come up with it, too.

Marcy watched the blonde tense up.

“Thank you…” she sobbed. She was fine with this. She chose this. “...for playing with me.”

She didn’t even hear the gunshot.

-----

Marcy relaxed in a lounge chair on a beach in Hawaii, relishing the sun on her face. She had a glass of Mai Tai in her hand.

When something blocked it and shaded her eyes, she dared to take a peek. What she saw surprised her, startling her to sit up and stare. She’d nearly dropped her drink in her haste.

“Hey, Marshmallow.”

What a nickname. But she loved it.

“Sasha…”

The blonde smiled.

“Sasha!” Marcy shouted, dropping her drink and tackling the taller girl onto the ground. Her arms came to wrap around the blonde’s shoulders and her legs around her waist. She felt Sasha hug her back.

She was here. Oh, God, she was here. But then… that meant that Sasha was--

She pulled back and held Sasha’s shoulders, asking almost incredulously, “H-How did you die?”

“Andrias,” Sasha shrugged nonchalantly. “That asshole stabbed me in the neck when Anne tried to get help.”

“Anne. Is she…?” Marcy asked, curious.

“She won.”

“Oh.”

Marcy hadn’t expected that. The brunette was too cheerful or naive. She’d thought Andrias or Bog or Fens would win.

“Mhm,” Sasha hummed.

Marcy smiled, then glanced at her spilled drink.

“So,” she started, turning back to face Sasha, “about that Mai Tai offer. You up for it?”

Sasha tilted her head, mirroring the shorter girl’s smile.

“I am.”

~~~~~

I want Sae-byeok and Ji-yeong to have a happy ending. They deserve to have a happy ending. ;-;

Anyways, I hope y’all enjoyed reading this! Have a very beautiful morning, afternoon or evening. Until next time. :)

rewind: september 2021

only half a month late...

music.

ateez. another comeback from our nuggets. come on ‘zero: fever, pt.3’ did not disappoint. ‘deja vu’, ‘all about you’, ‘not too late’ oh my goodness. they did such a great job! i love it!

nct 127 we had a comeback and though ‘stickers’ unique flute sound does not sit well with me, they’re still my babes and i will support. i liked ‘lemonade’, ‘magic carpet ride’, ‘the rainy night’, ‘road trip’ and ‘promise you’. i loved the concept videos that they did for each track. it just makes the countdown to the drop even better. and can we take a moment for the seoul city concept photos.

‘full of you’ by so soo bin. i love this man. his voice is like butter. so chill like honey. 10 out of 10 recommend. also love ‘oh-i’.

'red lipstick (feat. yoonmirae)’ by leehi. it’s a bop. it’s funky. it’s fresh. it’s groovy. 10 out of 10 recommend.

‘my universe’ by coldplay X bts. ICONIC to say the least. it is great. an incredible song. i love that they truly collaborated together with this one. it is great. 10 out of 10 recommend.

LISA. this queen. though initially did not vibe. both songs have grown on me and i love how bad butt they make me feel. 

‘stereotype’ by stayc. i know it’s everywhere but my goodness it is great!

dramas & movies.

DP. this was on my radar because of our main lead, jung hae-in. but, oh my goodness, was this a hard hitting drama. we follow jun-ho as he enlists in his required duty in the korean army. he soon becomes a special private with a unique assignment to capture army deserters. each episode spotlights a unique individual and their reasons for deserting the army. it was heart breaking, and did not shy away from hazing and bulling present there. i am unsure what was fact or fiction, but it was brutal. i would recommend but definitely watch with caution because it surrounds heavy topics. 

blue birthday. another interesting drama with a star studded cast. it had a unique concept in that our main girl, ha-rin played by yeri, can time travel when she burns photos taken by her best friend from childhood seo-jun who was thought to have previously committed suicide in high school. through many turns of events ha-rin discovers that he was actually murdered. and through multiple ripple effects ha-rin and seo-jun save each other. it was interesting and i thoroughly enjoyed it. i would give it a 7 out of 10. 

move to heaven. this was an unexpected gem. i was intrigued to watch because i had finished ‘racket boys’ the month prior and loved the lead, tang joon-sang. and i am so glad i did. we follow geu-ru who has asperger’s syndrome who works for his father at ‘move to heaven’ an after death service that arranges the items of the deceased. when geu-ru’s father dies, his uncle sang-gu suddenly appears. and we follow them as they learn about each other. recommend 9.5 out of 10. a full review to come…

hospital playlist season 2. YESSSSS our long awaited second season. it was so great, and i loved every second of it. it will have to have it’s own rewind because i have so many feelings and thoughts on this one. i would 100 out of 10 recommend. 

squid game. y’all this one was WILD. had this cast not been a part of this drama probably would not have given it a watch because it truly is gruesome and harsh. however, this cast really intrigued me and i am glad i gave it a watch. because it was a drama that makes you think about it long after it is finished about the realities of the world and how though this seems outlandish and insane, what are other things that show our true realities and this horrible side of human nature. probably give it an 8 out of 10. (p.s. that plot twist kind of saw it coming but yeah know it’s still fun to see those easter egg videos because there are definitely more that i didn’t pick up on.)

#rewind #kpop #kdrama #korean drama #2021 #september 2021 #favorites #k movie #ateez #deja vu #comeback #nct 127 #sticker #full of you #so soo bin #lalisa #lisa #red lipstick #lee hi #yoonmirae #my universe #bts x coldplay #stereotype #stayC #dp #hae in #blue birthday #yeri #move to heaven #squid game

Imma be honest I’m that person that don’t like to feed into the hype: I’ll look at something 3 years after the hype dies down 😂😂 (which is why I refuse to watch squid games) but y’all talking about Jonathan Majors in his new movie (wasn’t checking for him) I watched it and now… I’m too thirsty for him 😂😂❤️👀 did y’all see those long legs and how he hopped on the horse?? 🥴 y’all have ruined me, time for me to google this whole man life and I’ll take him kid or not, the kid ain’t gonna be there the whole time 😂😂🙌🏽

wolfstar fans: omg sirius would never do anything to hurt remus he loves him

said man: *uses the man in question as a revenge tool against his nemesis*

*chooses a literal rat over him when switching secret-keepers because yes, the werewolf who wouldn’t hurt a fly is obviously the traitor*

*doesn’t give two fucks about said werewolf and leaves everything in his will to his godson, who is already filthy rich*

me: come again?

Hey!

Instead of calling us Snape apologists, why don’t we start calling y’all Marauder apologists?

After all, you seem to be apologizing for James and Sirius’s shitty behavior. However, we aren’t apologizing for Severus’s shitty behavior. Unlike the Marauder apologists, we embrace Sev’s darkness. We explore it and debate about it. All you Marauder apologists do is make fluffy headcanons about James being the most progressive dude on the planet and Remus and Sirius being super gay when the former was probably straight (though I don’t mind a Remus who’s bi). Now, not to say I’m hating on y’all (some of your headcanons aren’t too bad) but I’m just saying: Aren’t you guys apologizing for your faves? You don’t see us erasing Sev’s bad behavior, but we see y’all erasing James and Sirius’s bad behavior all the time.

Say it with me: “Marauder Apologist.”

Louder: “MARAUDER APOLOGIST!”

I swear on my mother’s love that if the HP series was told from Severus’s POV, 90% of the fandom would hate Lily and the Marauders.

Bring On The Monsters

a/n: I wasn’t going to spend too much time on domestic Luke, I was gonna get right into HOO but @scammedbyanigerianonline made an excellent comment on Bring On The Real World (pt2) about Luke facing the most fearsome monster, a Karen, and I loved it so much I wrote a fic about it. This is dedicated to them. 

Y’all, comment things! I have basic plot points I’m going to cover, but I love the takes other people have and if it doesn’t conflict with my outline I can probably write a little scene based on it- that’s the beauty of this format. I’ll always give credit if it’s your comment that sparks a fic. 

Read the others!: Masterlist

It had been a couple weeks since Percy and his family took Luke in. He learned the transit systems quickly, had taken to studying for his learners permit, and had been adamant about doing his chores, trying to stay on Sally’s good side.

It was nearly 6pm when Luke came through the doorway, looking visibly distraught.

Percy glanced over from the game he was playing- a birthday gift from Paul -and paused it, watching Luke with growing concern. “What happened to you?” He raised his eyebrow.

“Percy, you can never escape monsters, no matter what kind of life you live.” He told him seriously, collapsing on the couch beside him.

Percy’s eyebrows rose. “You fought a monster?” He asked incredulously. “You should’ve called me, I would’ve come for backup.”

“Humans are the worst monsters,” He muttered, closing his eyes. “Keto, what in Hades name is keto?”

Percy was confused. “It’s like, a diet plan or something, I don’t know.” Percy shrugged. “Why?”

Luke sat up, getting ready to recount the encounter. “Some lady came in, and asked about keto and I don’t know anything about it and that’s what I told her but I’d been the one stocking the shelves and I never saw anything that said keto and she sat there and shouted at me, calling me disrespectful, asking to speak to my manager, but Chloe was on lunch and I told her that but she just kept yelling.” Luke nearly exploded with the story, slumping back into his seat. “At this point I think I’d rather be fighting a minotaur or something, it’s ridiculous.” He massaged his temples.

“Oh, you definitely fought a monster today,” Percy mused, trying to keep a straight face.

Luke looked up at him confused. “You think? The mist was strong then, because she definitely looked human.”

“Yeah, you fought one of the biggest monsters of our generation, they’re awful,” Percy paused for effect. “A Karen.”

“You mean a Kraken?” Luke asked, confused. “Isn’t that the huge squid from that movie you made me watch?”

“No, not a kraken,” Percy thought about it. “Though that would be cool and we could definitely tag team that one into defeat, but no, a Karen.”

Luke was lost, and the look on his face showed it. Percy burst out laughing. “Man, you know, a Karen? They’re the people who treat employees like shit because they live by the mantra ‘The Customer Is Always Right’. They’re basically assholes who defend their assholery because they don’t think they do anything wrong.” Percy continued.

Luke thought about it for a moment, mulling over the definition. “Like Mr. D.” He said without thinking.

Percy, who had just managed to calm down, burst into another fit of laughter, holding his stomach. “Yeah, exactly like Mr. D,” he gasped for breath between fits of laughter.

Luke quirked a small smile and shook his head. “I’m going to take a shower.” He got up off the couch.

“Hey, did that girl come back today?” Percy smirked, his eyes on the screen.

Luke tripped over his feet. “Girl? What girl?” He looked at Percy with wide eyes.

Of course he knew which girl Percy meant, the girl from his first day that asked about the cherry sours, she came in at least twice a week. Percy had been insistent that Luke try and talk to her, but he was pretty content with doing not that, and instead just pretended his didn’t notice her unless she asked him where something was.

“That girl that you were pretending not to look at when I met you at the store a couple days ago,” Percy rolled his eyes.

Luke shook his head. “I’m taking a shower,” He announced again.

“Luke’s got a cruuuuuush,” Percy teased.

“I’ll run you through with my blade if you don’t shut up!” Luke called back, heading into the bathroom.

“I’ll tell mom that you brought your sword out without permission.” Percy threatened.

Luke popped his head out and glared. “You wouldn’t.”

Percy paused the game. “Try me.”

Luke huffed and went into the bathroom, closing the door.

“That’s what I thought.” Percy mumbled to himself, starting the game again.

You Gotta Be Squidding Me || Savannah & Winn

TIMING: Present LOCATION: Savannah’s office SUMMARY: Savannah meets with Winn to discuss Agent Sterling’s death and gets more truth than she bargained for. CONTENT WARNINGS: Discussion of murder and body horror

Savannah had no idea how she was supposed to put any of this in a report. Dr. Kavanagh had directed her to a gentleman called Winn Woods because she remembered she had seen something in a dream. Great. Excellent detective work, Agent. That doesn’t sound crazy at all. At this point though, Savannah was prepared to try just about anything. The Bureau had supplied her with a small rented office downtown so she at least didn’t have to interview people in a messy hotel room or keep going to the police station. She preferred not to have people looking over her shoulder. The buzz from the door told her Mr. Woods had arrived. Right on time. At least he was punctual. “Come in, have a seat. Would you like coffee or tea or anything?” she asked, closing the door after him.

It was one of those White Crests days where everything felt ominous — gray clouds overhead and a weird chill in the air, both typically foreign to August. Winn’s nightmares the night previous had been plagued with visions of the abomination, of the twisted corpse of Sterling ambling towards him, an inevitable end to what little of his life he’d managed to salvage. It was a wonder he’d managed to sleep. Since that day Sterling had washed up, Ulfric had done his level best to keep the body concealed. But ‘missing’ wasn’t much better than ‘dead’ — especially not where a federal agent was concerned. They’d both known it’d come back to bite them. And while Winn was a fine actor, one gift his mother had left him, there was no masking his unease. Human. Javier Sterling had been so painfully (pitifully?) human — until he hadn’t. Winn would tear his throat out again, spare him the indignity of his body, warped as it was. But that wasn’t the question, was it? “Coffee’s fine,” Winn said, noncommittal. It would give him time to think through a game plan. Smalltalk. He could do smalltalk. “How have you been liking White Crest, Agent Lim?”

“Coffee it is,” Savannah said, brewing a fresh pot. “Although the government doesn’t exactly offer generous funding for amenities, so I can’t promise anything about the quality.” She poured herself a coffee as well. Though she maintained a casual air about her, Savannah was already assessing the young man. His nerves were obvious, but that wasn’t necessarily an indication of guilt. If someone wasn’t nervous about being interviewed by a federal agent, there was something wrong with them. “I like it very well. It’s bizarre, which I find frustrating but also oddly comforting. I’m intrigued by things that are unusual. Something Agent Sterling had in common with me, I’m led to believe.” She handed Winn his coffee. “Did you know him well?”

“I think the first coffee I had was on the Hill. Representatives bring their own coffee, or suffer whatever their interns thought sounded good at the Trader Joe’s on Pennsylvania Ave.” Winn cocked his head. “Don’t know how much time you spent at y’all’s headquarters, or if you’ve always been on-assignment?” He took a sip from his coffee, ignoring the heat dancing across his tongue. Still too hot, but the pain helped to ground him in the moment. He’d dealt with government folks for most of his life. Could Agent Lim be discreet? It wasn’t as if the FBI was known for being bold and brash, not when subtlety could better pave the way to an answer. Winn wished, in that moment, that he had been close to Agent Sterling. Agent Lim’s hints that he’d been investigating the unusual… Could always tackle it the White Crest way, right? “Unusual?” Winn asked, more chipper than was probably wise. “Honestly, I barely knew him. Pointed him in the direction of a shop on Amity, but that was really the last time I ‘spoke’ to him.” Do not joke about Natalia killing Javier. Do not joke about Natalia killing Javier. “I can’t remember ever meeting him in-person, though.” Technically, not a lie.

"The Hill?" Savannah repeated, unsure if she was impressed or actively cringing. "Interesting. You didn't strike me as the political type." He'd struck her as a sort of empty-headed party boy, but then, there were plenty of those in politics too. "I did my training at Quantico, and spent most of my career operating around the New England area." She picked up her own coffee, sipping it. "But this isn't about me. Unless you just want to be impressed by my credentials. I might not have them much longer if I can't solve this case." And the more she looked into it, the more unsolvable it seemed. Winn's name had literally been given to her by someone who said she'd seen it in a dream. "That's interesting," she nodded, "because an anonymous source told me you might know something about his disappearance." 

“Representative Delacour. Or former? Figure she’s still up there; I try not to keep up with politics. I wasn’t up there often, just enough to figure out that there was better coffee in the world.” Winn shrugged, another sip from his own cup. Talking about his mother wasn’t his favorite recreational activity, so he was more than happy to drop the subject. He tried not to flinch at Agent Lim’s suggestion, a frown flickering across his face for just a second. Getting a federal agent involved in whatever was happening in White Crest, getting a human involved in all of this. Was that fair? No. It wasn’t. But less fair was keeping her in the dark, letting her wander into getting herself killed. Or, worse, the same thing happening to her that had happened to her former co-worker. Winn tried to think of how a hunter would describe what happened to Javier, Adam’s talk of mutations and infections coming to mind. Winn couldn’t even be sure that was what it was, but something about it rang true. Javier had changed so suddenly… “How much do you know about Cordyceps, Agent Lim?” Winn said, slowly, not letting even an ounce of fear slip into his voice.

“Well, we’ve got that in common,” Savannah scoffed. She knew just enough to make informed decisions at the voting booth, but when it came down to every single representative, Savannah was pretty clueless. Winn could have made up any name and she wouldn’t have known any better. She narrowed her eyes curiously, wondering where exactly he was going with this. “Cordyceps? Isn’t it a virus or something that affects insects? The thing that makes stuff grow out of their ugly little insect heads?” Fascinating, no doubt, but she had no idea what that had to do with her case. Javier Sterling wasn’t a caterpillar.  

Winn wrinkled his nose at the reminder of what the fungus did to wasps, ants, and others. Planet Earth had been a staple of insomnia-fueled nights over the last half-decade, so Winn knew the metaphor didn’t stretch all the way out. There hadn’t been anything (yet?) to suggest Winn or Ulfric had been infected by Javier. “Fungus, but yeah. They take over the host body and direct it towards a purpose. For Cordyceps, that means gettin’ up somewhere high and poofin’ its spores as far as they can go.” Winn still had more questions than answers, but… Shit, would it be nice to have someone to bounce shit off of. It wasn’t like he was good for anything more than a helpful sniff or slashin’ someone’s throat. “Damn, almost wish you could read my mind. Would make explainin’ this easier.” He drummed his fingers along the arm of the chair. “Agent Lim, I need you to take everything I’m about to say at face value, alright? I won’t lie, not if I can help it, but I’m gonna sound like I’m off my rocker. If you’re not gonna believe me, this ain’t goin’ anywhere productive.”

“Fungus. Right.” Savannah focused on him, eyeing him as he spoke, determined to figure out exactly where this conversation was going. It wasn’t often someone took the lead on her interrogations, but she figured the more talking he did, the more he might slip up and tell her something useful. God, nobody had given her anything useful in weeks… “Alright, I guess now I don’t need to watch National Geographic when I go home.” She chewed the inside of her lip. “People say that sort of thing when they’re about to say something nonsensical,” she sighed. “But nothing in this case has made sense so far, so I suppose let’s start with ridiculous and work backwards.” She gestured vaguely with her hand for him to go ahead. 

Winn almost laughed at the suggestion of nonsensicality. C’mon, Agent Lim. All he was askin’ was for her to believe her co-worker turned into a squid-man hybrid, and spit out a wackadoo language, before tryin’ to kill the werewolf sittin’ in front of her! It all made perfect sense. He groaned, leaning back in the chair. If it wasn’t so close to the new moon… But naw, no werewolfing it up. “I can do ridiculous,” he said, confident. “Javier Sterling washed up one morning while I was fishin’. Took me a minute to realize it was him, ‘cause somethin’ had happened to him. See, your boy had been infected with a— with a virus, if you like. I don’t rightly know what it was, but I can tell you what I saw. Not a fungus, but somethin’ from the ocean. I’d call it a growth, but then I’d have to rationalize the tentacle that wrapped around my arm. And nothing,” Winn wet his lips, “about this is rational.” Winn paused. “I’m not done, but figure that’s a lot to take in. Take, uh, take your time. It only gets weirder.”         

“Fishing.” Savannah scoffed. “Yeah, okay, go on. My co-worker washed up on shore and had a… a what? A weird fungal infection from the ocean? Are you saying it was a natural death?” What exactly was he confessing to? It didn’t make any sense. But then she remembered— “Was there a red-headed man with you?” she asked. “Covered in tattoos? Big beard?” She’d seen it in her dream too. Maybe what Regan had said wasn’t so crazy after all. Except that it was, and this whole thing was absurd. Her superiors were going to laugh her reports right out of the office if she tried to go back to them with this. 

Winn squinted at the perfect recitation of Ulfric’s description. There hadn’t been anyone around that day. As far as Winn knew, only one person even knew of what had happened to Javier Sterling, outside of Ulfric and Winn themselves. There were few explanations and Winn was eager to narrow them down. “Yes,” he said, evenly. “I’m keepin’ his name out of this.” No need to bring in Ulfric. ‘Sides, Ulf was out of town, last he heard. One phone call, and one of them could tell him to stay out of town. Winn had dealt the killing blow, even if Ulfric had made sure that Javier wouldn’t get up. “An anonymous source, huh? That sure is unusual,” he said, tone almost acerbic. “How much do you know, Agent Lim?” Whether she’d intended it or not, Winn’s hackles were raised, and he was just barely stifling the low growl in the bottom of his throat. 

Savannah scribbled down a jumble of notes. Not that she’d have any difficulty remembering this, of course. “I’m not at liberty to reveal my sources,” she said. “And if I tell you what I know, I can’t be sure that whatever you tell me is genuine knowledge that you came to independently.” She sighed. “Would it help if I say I saw it in a dream? Would that be more or less asinine than whatever you wanted to tell me?” She was losing her damn marbles, and she might be about to be threatened by a frat boy. “I hardly know anything, okay? Is that what you want to hear? That’s why I’m asking.” 

A long, long exhale of breath. “A dream?” Winn echoed, urging himself to calm the fuck down. “Naw, that sounds about par for the course… for White Crest, anyway.” Okay, Winner. Rewind. Back to square one. “Like I said, really, I’m happy to help. But so long as you’re withholdin’ your sources — and I get it, I do — I’m goin’ to keep back the name of our ginger friend.” She hardly knew anything. That was good and bad. Technically, Winn could lie his ass off. If he wasn’t a man of his word, he’d take that as an easy out. Funny thing ‘bout bein’ a counselor? It was easier to console folks, to let ‘em know it was alright to feel their own emotions than it was for Winn to get across his point, sometimes. So, an answer. “Agent Javier Sterling is dead,” he said, evenly. “He was dyin’ when he washed up, but I don’t know what got a hold of him. We were tryin’ to help him, and he attacked my friend. I moved quickly, because otherwise my friend would have died. I cut Sterling’s throat open. My friend grabbed a knife and gutted him. It was, I hope, less painful than what the infection would have done to him.” A pause. “I’m sorry for your loss.”

“Fine,” Savannah sighed. “Don’t tell me who the red-headed man is. I don’t care.” That wasn’t entirely true, but she was primarily concerned with finding out what had happened to Javier. The names of everyone else involved could come later. She froze momentarily when he announced Javier’s death. It wasn’t exactly a surprise. She’d suspected it from the get-go, but there was something chilling about the confirmation. “Right, dying from, um… ocean fungus?” She didn’t mean to sound so cavalier, but the whole thing was so hard to believe. If she hadn’t seen it with her own eyes, she’d have dismissed him out of hand. Her eyes widened and she stood up from her chair at his confession. Her body was stiff, her gaze trained upon him, as if he would disappear like a thief in the night if she so much as broke eye contact. “Did you just tell me— you killed Agent Sterling?” Savannah stared at this man, dumbfounded. “I think I’m supposed to arrest you for manslaughter,” she said, but somehow, she didn’t. She didn’t even move.

“Oh. The fungus was a metaphor. Probably more like an ocean… demon? Honestly, I was real close to dyin’ last month, so I haven’t had time to do any ‘investigating.’” Winn swung his legs up under him, crossed, and cocked his head. His body was loose. There’d be plenty of time for him to agonize over his decisions in whichever afterlife he ended up in, but this one? No. “I mean no disrespect here, Agent Lim, but d’you really think those charges’d hold up? C’mon, you’re smarter than that.” Winn hummed, taking another sip of his coffee. “I wouldn’t be convicted by any human court. The marks on Agent Sterling’s neck,” Winn raised his hand, eyeing it with faux-disinterest, “were made by claws, for one. I was actin’ in self-defense, like I said, for the other — which is, unless Maine’s laws are weird as fuck, I’m pretty sure’ll get me out without gettin’ charged. And for a third, I’d argue,” Winn sighed, “that I’m not the one who killed Agent Javier Sterling. I killed a monster using his body for somethin’. For what, I really don’t know.” Winn’s gaze turned hard. “And none of that’s goin’ to matter, ‘cause no one would believe a word either of us said.”

Savannah didn’t believe in ocean demons. Why would she? Ocean cordyceps had been hard enough to wrap her head around. This nice, respectful young man had just confessed to her as if it was just another damn August afternoon. Nothing to see here, folks. White Crest was the most bizarre place she’d ever experienced. “No, no, I don’t think they’d hold up. Where’s the evidence? Is there a body? A murder weapon? Or did you dispose of all that too?” She scoffed. Maybe she could get him on destruction of evidence, of covering up Javier’s death, but even that was a long shot. Yes, it would be her word against his, but since her story made no damn sense either, it was going to be tough to do anything at all. “I don’t know if I even believe you,” she said firmly, like that would give her some kind of one-up on him. “There is no such thing as people-possessing ocean monsters,” she said. This whole town seemed as if it was playing one huge joke on her. She folded her arms across her chest. “Take me to his body.”

Winn was quiet while Savannah ran through her litany of questions. There were only so many ways to bust open a mind, let someone know the world was much, much bigger than they imagined. Unfortunately for Agent Lim, Winn hadn’t had to explain himself — or the supernatural world at large — to a garden variety human in, uh, ever. But leading with Javier’s death had been the only option, right? Otherwise, what, shift in front of her? Naw, too dangerous, and he didn’t have spare clothes on him. “Thing about the truth? You don’t have to believe me. As for a body? Doubt it’s there, anymore. Enough flesh-eating things in our rivers that the corpse was destined to get snacked on. But, look, I get it. Evidence.” As much as he loathed to admit it, another journey through his memories could be the easiest solution here. It’d take time, time that Agent Lim didn’t necessarily have. “I want answers, same as you. But it might take some doin’, and it’s gonna require you to trust me. Trust that I want to—” fight? destroy? “—bring to justice whatever hurt Agent Sterling. I said before, I won’t lie to you. And I might be able to give you something to work with. Teamwork’d be better than workin’ against each other, right?” Winn stood, holding out his hand. 

Savannah's head was spinning. There was so much sincerity in the man before her. He was just honest, kind even. She wanted to scream, as if yelling would make all this go away, somehow make it easier to digest. She could yell over and over that this wasn't true, but she somehow felt the reality of it, no matter what kind of scepticism she might have wanted to win out, somehow she just knew that Winn was telling the truth. "You know this is the fucking weirdest buddy cop duo ever," she sighed, but extended her hand to his. "I'm going to need a drink."

Yugioh Season Zero: Seto Kaiba's First Kidnapping

It’s Christmas vacation, I have Mannheim Steamroller on repeat, so much chocolate just an arms reach away from me. And I have purposely given myself nothing to do as an attempt to teach myself to do nothing.

So lets watch something weird and revisit Zero.

For those new here, I have been also reviewing most of Season Zero. If you don’t know what that is, you can my recaps in order by clicking this link here.

And like last time, I am not actually affiliated with Team Millennium, and I hope they don’t mind that I am capping their episode. You can find them on Youtube where they are slowly redubbing this season into English, and um--this next episode is the last episode they have! So I don’t know how I’m going to recap the rest?

Probably the same way I did in the first episode where it’s a lot less dialogue and more just...my reaction to it.

And, as always, my disclaimer for the new people that this was made in the 90′s and based off of the OG manga and it is...not the same show. It’s problematic. Why wouldn’t it be? It’s a counter-culture anime from the 90′s. Though this episode is pretty tame, honestly. Weird, but tame.

So, we start off the episode with a very lovingly drawn sky, not sure why it’s on THIS show but it’s here. This post apocalyptic sunset.

And staring directly into this sun going supernova is Seto Kaiba in his green hair, just brooding...

Not sure how he has this view from his Pemberly style mansion, but I dunno, maybe the city is visible from the backyard, or Seto just has really good vision. Either way don’t worry about it, we see Seto vibe out and visualize weird stuff all the time.

So, spurned by his hate for his classmate that beat him in cards once, Seto decides it’s time to enact his revenge by...what sounds a lot like some weird Lord of the Rings Lore and I dunno if it’s a bad translation or I just don’t really know what the hell he’s going off about because I never read the Yugioh version of the Silmarillion. Probably both.

See, while the first couple episodes of this show have different variations on Youtube, this one really only had the Team Millennium version in English (which is fine, there’s just some confusing things) and then the other version I saw skipped half of the episode because I guess they decided this part was boring or something. So forgive the fact that I’m flying on the seat of my pants here and I assume y’all will know all the deets I don’t know. For once, my contribution will be...kind of a lot less words.

So lets get right to it.

(read more under the cut)

Seto, who is in so much denial from Seasons 1-4, that I’ve headcanoned is actually cursed to never admit magic is real, has decided to call upon the (checks notes)

4 Game Masters

Yeah, that’s a new mechanic, these are a thing now. Don’t worry if you never heard of them before, I’ve been capping this show and I also have never heard of the legendary 4 magical Game Masters either.

So at this point these statues start glowing all creepy, and because it’s Yugioh I just kinda assumed...they’d do something.

I’m starting to think that maybe that was supposed to be symbolic, actually. Maybe there was never actually magic in the statues. Maybe it’s part of Seto hallucinating, as always. This whole show kind of runs on being a sort of metal fever dream whenever people get intense about games, so I’m probably not supposed to align it with any established magic laws anyway. It’s just I never know when things are real or just aesthetics, which I enjoy, quite a bit, that it’s open ended--but still it’s somewhat confusing as to if these gargoyles are...a thing now or were just always set dressing to kind of remind us of the cards that come later in the episode.

But, remember the spooky indoor gargoyles in your mind, keep it there, these menacing gargoyles over a fiery sunset...

OK now lets meet the real villain.

There he is. Our villain. And his name? Ripley Sheldon.

MAN to go from spooky gargoyles to Ripley Sheldon. There’s a name. That’s a name all right. I’ve only seen one episode of Big Bang Theory but Sheldon is a name forever ruined for me.

So--sidestory--this one time, my friend was at a wedding in Santa Cruz, which is a pretty beachy hippie town that always smelled like weed before it was legal, and there was just...a doll at the wedding. My friend was seated at a dinner party table just right next to this doll, and the family was like “Ah yes, this is the doll, you have to speak to her. She’s a member of the family.” and my friend had to suffer roleplaying with this doll for hours.

So before you’re like...there’s no way grown ass adults are this weird with dolls in public.

Yes. It happens.

Ah, and it’s the first instances of the Kaiba Corp logo and it’s the same. Complete with helicopter, because that Logo is never done until it’s surrounded by a fast military vehicle of some sort.

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh great.

Yo remember that one episode where Yugi almost got his legs chopped off by Arcana and Arcana’s wife was being held behind a curtain, and at the end of the episode Arcana pulls back the curtain and his wife was a manikin the whole time and her head fell off?

Getting those vibes.

Back at school, Miho is busy being the most manipulative human being, this time with losing at cards. Like y’all I am TRYING to give Miho the benefit of a doubt here, but it seems even the translators hated Miho so much they had her refer to herself in the 3rd person. I am trying, really I am, sorry to everyone who loves Miho, I will leave that door open as I watch these--that maybe Miho will...grow on me.

But not this episode.

And then this happened. I guess from the breeze of Honda leaning over too far.

Believe it or not, Yuugi’s vertigo will come back later in this very episode. This whole bizarre scenario was just foreshadowing.

But for reals, Yuugi is so FRAIL in Season Zero. While I appreciate the contrast between Yuugi and Yami Yuugi, I gotta recognize how much Yugi has evolved over 4+ seasons because Yuugi is just...eggshells. Every part of him is polite little eggshells.

But in contrast, you have Anzu who is ready to fight in every single scene she’s in and I’m OK with that.

That and the very clear romantic direction that is just...simple. It’s very simple in Season Zero. That’s nice.

Anzu isn’t even possessed by two ghosts. In fact, between Anzu and Yuugi right now, there are 0 ghosts. So weird. So kosher.

Speaking of weird,

Y’all, I have no explanation for this. I only know so much Kanji.

The translation I watched tried so very hard to do what they could with this, and kudos to them, but...this is what happens with translation, it’s just a very hard job sometimes. So I get how they decided to form this joke into English, but if anyone is like a Japanese speaker and gets the pun that was clearly happening here, feel free to youknow, share the knowledge.

Unfortunately the undubbed episode that exists on Youtube that I found edited out this part so they didn’t have to try and translate it, lol. Either way, I appreciate Orange Jounouchi a lot, as well as the background squids on Squid Jounouchi.

Can you imagine just being in high school, and you get summoned to the Nurses Office? Can you even imagine what rumors would start from that? Like I know Seto wants revenge against Yuugi through cards, but I think he just did. I think he did like maybe one of the worst things you can do to a High Schooler just now. May as well page over the intercom that Yuugi has to pick up his yeast infection ointment.

And this is where we meet...a ridiculous satire. This 30 year old beautiful woman flirting with a child disaster who cannot balance while seated on a low chair.

And predictably, Yuugi lost because things just got THAT weird and awkward. Dunno if the translators put that in there for fun, or if that’s honestly how it was in the original. My bet it was probably exactly that weird in the original. Mostly because this show has a lot of “stranger danger” set ups to teach little children to never trust bad adults and this just seemed like exactly that type of set-up. Don’t trust the overly nice nurse or she’ll steal your cards in a game, kids.

After this really awkward card game (and I’m not going to bother to dive into it because I don’t talk about the card mechanics here), we find out...that Seto’s just been staring at them...the entire time.

Like it has such a voyeuristic vibe to it, it really makes you wonder about Seto’s whole deal just an awful lot. Like Season 1-4 doesn’t really ship Yugi/Kaiba, in my opinion (and just my opinion, I know how y’all feel about the ship and that is a-ok, all ships are welcome here)...but Season Zero ships A LOT. It’s not a serious ship by any means, it’s clearly a crack ship, but they...very clearly know what they’re doing with Seto being this obsessed with Yuugi in this way, omg. It just sounds like a kink to me.

So, ways to beat Yuugi Muto:

steal his stuff halfway through the game, try to kill yourself, rock paper scissors, try to kill Joey Wheeler, or dress up a sex doll like a nurse and have a gross old man have it play cards while he makes a sexy lady voiceover.

(Y’all I’ve been to my share of arcades in my life and I think I’ve only seen like 6 pinball tables total. Do good arcades only exist on TV? I think it’s all a lie.)

Then, because I guess this episode wasn’t going anywhere, Yuugi goes to the arcade to play some video games. The video game is unimportant, and it’s never been brought up before, but he’s dead set on finding it. Because unlike Yugi, Yuugi just doesn’t really have a goal in this series so he just kind of flutters around until someone tells him what to do.

TBH that’s a pretty 90′s thing for a show or a movie to do. To have characters just exist and have things happen to them, but in all, they’re just...wandering. So it’s not so much a knock on the show, it’s just that sometimes it’s a little of a transition to go from a goal being something physical, like finding the lost city of Atlantis before every human’s soul is absorbed into the great Leviathan, to the goal being more of a mental acceptance--Yuugi just learning to accept this curse he doesn’t even know he has yet, and trying to find acceptance in his group of friends.

With Yuugi, we’re kind of just watching his daily life, which is mostly watching him try and sneak games into every spare moment that his local adult has turned around. It has a very slice of life feel to it, but minus the near constant innuendo slice of life tends to have (at least the ones that have been recommended to me)

Now, because this is a show about people getting a real EXTREME comeuppance every time they break the law, what will happen to Yuugi for ignoring his Grandpa’s wishes and going to the arcade before going home?

First, we meet this mushroom haired person.

That’s right kids, NEVER stop by the arcade on the way home from school--1.) The local arcades are almost always 90% boring racing games and busted shooters that came out on the Nintendo 64 when I was a child and 2.) You will get abducted.

And then we get this face swap.

Kaiba just really loves dress-up. No wonder he was hanging out with a guy super into dolls. And like, I went into before how Seto Kaiba is always doused in facsimile energy. He loves faking it up, and apparently that’s been true since Zero.

He introduces that he will have four challenges from four Game Masters and uh so welcome to the...I don’t where this is, but a weird place full of dolls that must exist somewhere in Domino.

I guess this is to make it seem like they have an audience to watch Yuugi fail but even still...what?

So we get kind of a mirror to the scene at the beginning with Miho crying and Honda telling Yuugi to apologize for beating her, except replace Miho with Seto and Honda with this guy who really likes dolls (and Miho is a lot like a cursed doll). Like, if there were a theme to this episode it’s “grow up and stop apologizing when you beat someone in a card game” which isn’t a terrible theme, especially in this show that is about Yuugi learning how to adult.

In fact the “grow the hell up” theme is so strong we have a villain who is just...a big baby who carries dolls around. Kinda makes you wonder if the show would have eventually had Yuugi just...grow out of toys and games completely for the finale. Like in the Yugioh we have now, he can’t, because first off they licensed a hell ton of toys, but also because Yugi does games for his actual job. Even if Pharaoh was gone, Yugi still has to play games all the time. In this case, he could just...be using the games to learn how to do adult things, which is actually why we give kids games in the first place.

But, speculation aside, it’s at this point that a card play knocks Yuugi off of his chair and he passes out. Despite the fact that this isn’t a Shadow game and there...shouldn’t be any magic present. In fact, I don’t think any part of this game in this episode required opening the door of darkness. When he switches to Yami shortly after falling off of his own chair he’s like...yeah this is fine. Seems all above board. No need to kill anybody

And then apparently there’s a type of Dual Monster’s card I was unaware of.

A doll-type.

So I looked it up, is there a doll type card in Yugioh?

And it seems like there’s a lot of dolls, but not like...a type, as far as I can tell. Again, I don’t play this game, I’m only here for the plot and this one just seemed like they really had to reach for Yuugi to have just the right type of card to play.

And again, because this wasn’t a Shadow Duel, our loser just kind of walks away...all the way back to Britain, I guess.

And Seto just stands there behind a window in a rainstorm to allude to his many unshed salty tears, and it cuts to Miho who I guess has learned not to cry when she loses to Yuugi now.

And then she pulls out an absolutely winning tactic. This would win, actually. It’s actually genius.

And that is a very strong

From me. Wow. No thanks. I actually don’t want to see Yuugi do a kissy face ever again, thank you.

Half of you loved that though. This is fine. We’re all different.

Anyway, I assume the game was never played, or Miho won and the show just decided not to show it. If Season Zero Yuugi is a Yuugi that makes out then...that is...shocking. Then again, we’re only like...a third of the way through? I think?

Anyway, it’s...after Christmas because I went out of town for a spell, but I’ll just...post this now. Last post before the new year.

I’ll see y’all in 2020!

Once Upon A Time Rewatch: 2x09 Queen of Hearts

I love this episode!

I love wonderland. I’m so glad we got to explore it in ouatiw. I would have loved to have explored Tilly’s Wonderland too! It looked like it consisted of loads of mazes, which is what I’ve always associated Wonderland with.

I love team princess’ little adventure together. I’m gonna miss it!  

Woah, Hook took those guards out with his bare hook.

Wait. How does Hook know so much about Belle? He knows about her father and that Rumple took her but how? Maybe I’m forgetting something.

That Hook must be made of strong metal to break through those manacles.  

Ouch! Hook! It’s not nice to hit a woman! I’ve seen that this scene upsets a lot of people and I understand why. While heart ripping and stabbing with swords is much more violent getting hit round the face by someone stronger than you seems all too real.

Hooked Queen happened y’all, you can’t convince me otherwise.

Wow, Gold is just okey dokey with killing Emma & MM. And Regina is hesitant, which is reassuring!

Gold is so good at the manipulating game. And I love him for it xD.

Aww, Henry reading the Snowing Story to David like MM did for him and David.

Cool wand! I forget, is that the Black Fairy’s wand? If so, why did Rumple say she was dead?

Cora got what she wanted. She became Queen!

Didn’t see that coming, did ya Hook?

Damn, Captain of hearts’ chemistry is everything.

Man, I can see how genuinely hurt Cora is by the notion of Regina wanting her dead.

Aurora what the hell!

Oh yeah, Cora’s got her heart!

Don’t hurt Aurora!

Hook: “Perhaps you should have thought of that before you abandoned me on that beanstalk.” Emma: “You would have done the same.” Hook: “Actually, no.” That’s interesting. I wonder what would have happened if Emma didn’t abandon him. Would he have worked with them? Or would Cora have killed him for his betrayal? Or would he have played both sides or would he have gone back to Cora’s side?

Woah, did Gold and Regina take all the fairy diamonds?  

Oh snap, they did.

“And yes, she was beyond hope, beyond saving.” Season one feels!

Henry gets his hope from his Grandma! They are actually quite alike in that way when I think about it but he could have got it from Charming’s side to, though Charming has more of a tendency to go about things with blind faith. I guess that’s what makes Snow and Charming perfect for one another!

Oh my God, where was Cora with her lake restoring powers when Ruth needed it’s waters!

I wonder how Cora knows so much about the curse.

I don’t think Cora would ever kill Regina. Her legacy means to much to her. When she said, “And then I’ll rip her heart out,” I think she meant to control Regina. I could be wrong but she just seems so obsessed with her daughter.

If I lived in the EF and had the choice, despite there being evil sorcerers about who could rip out my heart and control or kill me, I’d still choose to keep my heart in my chest. I’d want to feel everything. I’d want to be able to love.

I forget how much Regina loves her mother, and honestly I get it. Sometimes mother’s can be awful and violent to you and yet you can still love them. It’s so unhealthy I know, but sometimes you just can’t stop yourself, especially when they have a loving side. It’s weird how that happens. And it explains why she took everything out on Snow. She couldn’t bring herself to truly hate her mother.

Cora be powerful as heck, protecting that whole section of the EF from the dark curse.  

Wait, squid ink could get them out of Rumple’s cell? I thought it just immobilised magic users.

Mulan’s, “No. I’m not leaving without you” to Aurora will be the death of me. Her face! She looks like she might cry at the idea! And then her promise to get Aurora’s heart back for her! Seriously, they are so cute!

Aww and MM and Aurora wishing each other good luck is the best! I love how motherly MM was to Aurora.

I don’t understand how Cora can be so obsessed with one daughter and not even spare a thought for the other just because of who their fathers were? Actually, I wouldn’t even be surprised if she had another kid with Rumple at some point who she discarded. Yes, I am still mad about it but I still love Cora!

So is Storybrooke like an altered copy of the EF? I’ve always thought of it as the same place brought from the EF but that can’t be true as both exist at the same time. Storybrooke has the T®oll bridge, the forest and the well that seems to contain the waters of Lake Nostos.

Mulan’s sword is so useful! They definitely need to make more swords that deflect magic! I wonder how she got it.

Lol. Emma trying to tackle Hook xD. So we got a CS sword fight, but now I need a Snowing one!

Aww. Snows insistence that Mulan goes to give Aurora’s heart back to her! She really grew to care for her!

Emma’s sword looks like Charming’s sword, but it can’t be, can it?

Cora and Hook are having way to much fun!

I can’t deny Emma and Hook’s sword fight is pretty cute.

Hook I don’t know about your innuendos but I’m gone come in ya window if you carry on like this, mr. flirty!

Punching Hook sure is is one way to get the compass!

Hey! Don’t hurt Ruby!

Listen to Henry!

I wonder what Regina’s reaction would have been if Cora did bring MM’s heart to her.  

Emma putting herself in the way of Cora and her mama!

Emma’s got magic!

Henry’s so wise. Y’all should listen to Henry.

The Charming family reunited!

Snowing true love’s kiss! My heart <3!! I love them so much!

Ah yes, Rumple was exactly where he needed to be when he was in that cell. Very clever Rumple. That’s where seeing the future comes in handy!

But Rumple didn’t create the curse, Emma.

You can’t tell me that the Sleeping Warrior scene where Mulan’s putting Aurora’s heart back in her chest wasn’t supposed to be romantic because it’s as romantic as hell! I’m gonna miss them so much!

Now kiss!  

And they ran off in the sunset together to find their other love Phillip and all three of them lived happily ever after together.

Oh yeah, Hook and Cora can’t go through because the wardrobe only allowed for two to go through. MM must have been curious about the fact that it allowed the two of them to go through.  

So can you direct a magic bean to open up a portal wherever you want?

Captain of Hearts be coming for your soul.
