🎃 OCTOBER UNDERTALE/DELTARUNE EVENTS 🎃

Paper Mario: Sticker Star was originally designed to include partners following Mario around during most of the gameplay, similar to Paper Mario and Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. In the finished game, Mario only occasionally has temporary followers, like Wiggler segments.

However, the camera system in the game has never been updated when the partners were removed, so in large areas in the finished game, the camera is always centered on the point between Mario and the spot where his partner would have been. This results in Mario being slightly off-center for most of the gameplay.

On the topic of Power-Ups, let's talk Fire Flower (personal headcanons under cut)!

The Fire Flower is one of, if not, the most known Power-Up from what I've seen. Even though I'm quite a fan of it myself I'll admit I never thought too much about it. So after giving it a good thought here's what I got:

General headcanons;

Fire Flowers are very adaptable plants, however they naturally originate from the Darklands, which so happen to be where they grow the most. The heat eminating from the magma is perfect for their growth. Since wielding fire isn't too rare of an ability for Koopas they're mostly perceived as weeds, so it's not much of an issue if someone plucks them. Unless you're an outsider. Something might be considered useless but it's a problem if the enemy wants to exploit it. Because of this some of the main fields will have patrols just in case a mustachioed human, or two, happen to be sent to collect a supply. They usually consist of Fire Bros who protect and even tend to the flowers. Rumours say that with some luck it's possible for a normal Koopa to inherit fire abilities after being exposed to a Fire Flower for extended periods of time but it hasn't been scientifically confirmed.

The Fire Flower is a multiple use Power-Up. Once activated it lends it's energy to a single user, then proceeds to hibernate and slowly regain heat overtime. The process can be sped up exponentially by placing the flower near a heat source like lava or a fireplace.

Mario and Luigi specific headcanons;

It took some time for the brothers to initially get hang of releasing energy without overdoing it. It's easier to ignite something, rather than put it out. Eventually with some guidance from friendly koopas they managed to become respectable fire users. That is until the events of Superstar Saga happened.

For Mario, getting the Firebrand only enhanced his abilities. Focusing energy became very easy, a second nature even. Shaping fire, directing it, managing it's temperature. Easy peasy for a guy like him! It wasn't a suprise that the Fire Flower quickly became his favourite to use soon after. When used with the technique he can truly show off his mastery over the element!

Luigi however... got it rough. The Thunderhand, notable for giving it's user affinity for manipulating electricy, drastically reverted his progress. These two elements just unfortunately don't mix. The fire he started to produce was unpredictable and unstable. There was no guarantee if it'll fly in the right direction nor how much power it'll pack. He's been practicing ever since to not accidentally go overboard.

Mario's fire tips and tricks aren't helping too much but at least he's trying.

In conclusion the Fire Flower is one of the more reliable, common and useful Power-Ups. Getting a good amount of them can be a hassle but in the long run it's worth it especially if they're used to make your own farm. It's uses can range from warming up the house to battling evil. Mario is the "fire master" of the group and Luigi, with the peculiar way magic reacts to him, is a walking proof of the statement: "elements don't mix".

Some of the stuff I said here could change with me adding details in the future but right now this is the general idea. It might not be completely original but the thought of making this seemed fun. Thank you to whoever read this, I hope the blocks of text were understandable!

Why is I*rael trending when people literally posted more about Palestine? Why Tumblr is actively suppressing the tag?

@staff why are you so bad at math?

Sorry I just saw your second comment.

Dude, I get you, I agree, no one is arguing that children need/deserve/should be killed. But how can you not understand that israel is doing what it can to protect the civilians (evacuation orders), but also needs to secure its own soldiers, who literally 19-23 year olds mostly, and those who aren’t are just civilians, doctors, lawyers, fathers, israel doesn’t want them to die to satisfy hamas, and Israel has a duty to protect them as they risk their lives to go in to kill terrorists who built their bases among civilian population, with people who aren’t specifically hamas also hating them and wanting them dead (again- not in a way of an excuse, but just you know, it’s the truth, their children would shoot a soldier, they have summer camps for it).

So yes, it’s sad, but these are precaution that israel has to take to protect its own children who are sacrificing their lives. And if warning people to evacuate isn’t enough, and saying that it’ll all stop if the hostages are released and hamas surrenders entirely, then how can you blame israel? 1400 people died gruesome, painful, terrifying deaths, they were tortured and beheaded and raped and burned alive. How can this be allowed to pass? How does israel eliminate hamas so that this never happens again?

I don't have anything to say that I have not already said before in the comments under my last response to you, but I do want to ask you two questions.

How do you feel about the historical oppression of Palestinians [1], and the fact that Israel is directly responsible for the things Hamas has done by getting them into power by providing them funding [2] [3], and the fact that were it not for the aforementioned oppression, Hamas would not exist in the form we see today [4]?

The 4th source is locked behind a paywall, but the intro alone illustrates my point well.

Oh, and just one more question, how do you feel about how the current Israeli Government is extremely Far-Right [5}, resembling Nazism more than anything I've seen coming from those who oppose what Israel is doing and has done to Palestine (except my asshole of a Grandpa and Hamas themselves)?

I'm sorry but 'Is the universe trying to tell me I'm transgender or am I stupid' is such a funny line

Maybe I'm stupid but I genuinely don't know the difference between evolving an eevee into an espeon/umbreon and evolving them into a sylveon. They're both based on friendship and affection right? I've tried to get an umbreon twice times in my training career and I ended up with two sylveons. is the universe trying to tell me i'm transgender or am i stupid

this is a pretty common confusion with the whole "friendship versus affection" business, but it's really simple.

you get an espeon or an umbreon if you've spent a lot of time traveling and growing emotionally with your eevee and they trust you in completion. you get a sylveon if you spoil them silly

The Lesbian Sex post started the thing
