back after my hiatus (recently saw a fence post and was like “i think….i miss my wife”)
i forgot how much fun it was to make these — i already have my next dump half done
TOGAME JO THE MAN YOU ARE
so I got into grad school today with my shitty 2.8 gpa and the moral of the story is reblog those good luck posts for the love of god
Nicholas and Aiden would be THE duo of all time you don’t understand.
I like to think Aiden would decide he likes Nicholas and he’s like “no this is my biological little brother you don’t understand”
He helps Nicholas with the most annoying fencing techniques after finding out Nicholas’ interest in the flick
Aiden knows Nicholas and Seiji have had an appointment, he’d 100% decide to be matchmaker (if he can’t sort out his own love life with Harvard then at least he can help Nicholas)
They’ve also got arguably the worst home life of the team, Nicholas’ mum never shows up for any of his matches so Aiden takes it upon himself to tell Nicholas he did well or the team was proud of him (he’s got over the fact his dad never shows up to anything and he’s never had a mother figure around long enough to care and he ain’t letting his little bro feel the same way) (he’s on the side watching Nicholas fence like GO WHITE BOY GO) (he’s aware Seiji does the same but makes SURE Nicholas knows he’s a good fencer)
If Nicholas has been on the bench for too long Aiden will suddenly find a date and disappear for a few matches just so Nicholas gets subbed in
Him and the coach also fully agree that Nicholas, once he has his technique down, is probably going to replace Aiden as the Chameleon of the group
If he found out Nicholas was the secret son of Robert Coste (probably finds the piece of newspaper in the trophy case) however, I do fear he’d use it against Jesse. Tell him right before their match against him so Jesse’s off balance and they loose. Nicholas gets rightfully upset and Aiden actually feels bad bc like that’s his little brother
(They also definitely have the same taste in music. Look at those two and tell me they don’t both listen to Lady Gaga)
"Please, save what remains of us."
With all kindness, put yourself in my family's place—what would you do?
Hello Dear,
I write to you overwhelmed with pain and helplessness 😔. My name is Abdelsalam, and I carry a burden too heavy to bear. My little daughter Amoona 👧 is living in unimaginable conditions. Every day is a battle for survival, where even her most basic rights—safety 🛡️, medicine 💊, and food 🍞—are distant dreams.
Amoona doesn't know the taste of childhood. She is growing up in a world that shows no mercy 💔, and as a father, I feel helpless watching her grow without being able to protect her. You have a voice that reaches millions 🎤, and your influence can be the difference between life and death.
I kindly ask, not just as a father but as a human 🙏, if you could consider offering some financial support, no matter how small, to help us provide the essentials Amoona needs. Your generosity could change our lives and bring hope back to my daughter’s future.
Additionally, I beg you to help spread my campaign. Let my voice reach the world 🌍, let people know what we are going through. All I ask is for a few words from you, but those words, alongside your support, could save Amoona and give her the life she deserves 💫.
Every word, every share, and every bit of help could be a lifeline ⛑️.
With the deepest gratitude,
Abdelsalam
!!!! I may not be able to help financially but I can help spread the word- please stay safe :(( 💛 May you and your family find prosperity
me: I'm going to write a fic to my own entertainment
also me, writing said fic:
Just watched ii finale part one so spoilers aheadd
First time rambling in a while ive just been lurking🥲
My god- id like to think that even if the creators of ii made the whole ‘mephone made the contestants” thing really recently- there was a pretty good set up to that especially in season 3
I believe that the contestants are people the way mephone and bot are conscious people even if they were created by someone with a different sole purpose
I think evidence of that is bow and dough being a ghost and the one of the main lessons in season 3 (specifically in bots arc) that and your identity and purpose is yours and yours only to create and decide and not something done by other people
I dont really see mephone being that much of a puppeteering villain as he has been seen caring for his contestants but also like there are people out there who can explain his complex character and decisions better than i can lmao
The implication that one of mephones favourite (if not his favourite) contestants was not actually one he created himself (bot) is kinda wild to me
-also like the amount of loose ends tied like THATS WHY THE CONTESTANTS STAYED IN THE HOTEL CUS THEY HAD NO WHERE ELSE TO GOOOO *sobs uncontrollably* like that explains why mephone can only revive his contestants and not like yk the world cus if mephone could do that i feel like cobs would have probably tried to capitalise it somehow
The implications that some characters may be a reflection of mephone like i saw somewhere that fan was a reflection or based on mephones love for reality tv and stuff ghdgrhs
SEASON 3 BEING CANON BROO AND CABBY BEING THERE does that mean theres a possible floor cameo (i miss him hes like my favorite💔)
Nickloon in season 2? unexpected but kinda funny i wonder how the hotel guests reacted to that and esp season 3 contestants interacting with the old contestants like mephone was gone for a day and a season was already over damn
I saw people talk about the whole like removing stuff and services from old phones or old designs in one of cobs ppt slides so im imagining that those who were deanimated first were the people mephone made first (since pickle oj and nickel were from season 1)
i hope theres a good end to the oj and paper conflict man ive missed them
it makes me wonder how much of oj pickle nickel and other deanimated characters would probably be like if or when they wake up like would they be back to normal or would they be how mephone originally thought they would be like
Also did mephone create toilet
At the end of the day its a win for me if i see the floor again :’)
Fence fic writing udpate🤩😄
I just discovered foodtimeline.org, which is exactly what it sounds like: centuries worth of information about FOOD. If you are writing something historical and you want a starting point for figuring out what people should be eating, this might be a good place?
