So I keep thinking about Gem being able to do astral projection, X-ray, free cam, go out of body, whatever you want to refer to it as. There's so much angst potential.

Trigger warning: dissociation, skin picking/rubbing? (I think that's how I word that? It's one sentence) Depersonalization (the whole thing to be honest)

Gem still exists in the real world, but she's not in her body. The dissociation that most likely comes with that is absolutely insane.

Like in my head the past wildcards are always on their minds, there's absolutely trauma there. People worried about snails for weeks, people who died from hunger had this unquenchable hunger for a bit and some still do, and people wake up in the middle of the night knowing the answers to trivia questions, as you do for tests. Some are worse but its still bad for everyone.

And now Gem has been out of body. She's talked to the dead, for God's sake. Does she wake up in the middle of the night because her flesh feels wrong for some reason? Is she always aware that dead people are just around? Does she talk to the air sometimes because Mumbo and Skizz are still around always? They just don't show up. They're there; they have to be.

She forgets that she can't leave her body, that she's stuck in the flesh, and she cries and rubs until she's red trying to leave, and Joel comes over and holds her until she's safe. (she breaks down once outside, and Pearl finds her; they don't talk about it, but they both know. Pearl forgets she can fall sometimes)

I just think that Gem is so angsty with this power, and as a girl who loves angst I’m absolutely devouring,

Spiderverse Hualian, spider people Hua Cheng and Xie Lian having a kind-of-meet-cute.

“Who are you?” Hua Cheng demanded in a low voice.

“I don’t think you want to know.” The other spiderman replied.

“As far as I’m aware, I’m the only one shooting webs around Shanghai. So who the hell are you? Some kind of knock-off?” Hua Cheng grumbled.

The other man laughed, it was the kind of sound that set off bells in Hua Cheng’s brain. Hua Cheng paused at the sound of it, but before he could react, the other spider man sandwiched him between webs and lunged forward.

The man landed skillfully and soundlessly over him. They were inches apart now. Hua Cheng could see the reflection of his own mask in the other man’s concealed eyes. Mechanical whirring was faintly heard as the spiderman’s eyes squinted and widened in rythmn.

“Well, who do you think I am, San Lang?” The man asked, his chest heaving slightly with his breaths. They seemed labored, under pressure and tight at the mere sight of Hua Cheng.

Hua Cheng froze. He grasped Xie Lian’s shoulders.

Grasped was a generous way to put it; that was saying it lightly. No, Hua Cheng he- he practically scrambled to wrap his arms around the man—around Xie Lian. “Gege?” was his only breathless response.

Xie Lian laughed again, muffled behind his mask but it was a sound like no other in Hua Cheng’s ears.

Xie Lian’s hands let go of the webs and he stuck his feet to the wall to support himself. He touched their foreheads together as his hands cupped Hua Cheng’s face.

“San Lang,” His shoulders shook, but his voice wasn’t as happy or light as it was before. “San Lang is right. My name is Xie Lian,” the man said, then he pulled away.

Hua Cheng was tempted to reach out and tuck Xie Lian back to his chest, but he had the self-control to keep himself from moving. He just trembled, wordlessly waiting in anticipation.

Xie Lian pat his shoulder. “I was a college student in a prestigious university, and I had a wonderful boyfriend whom I cherished,” He stared into Hua Cheng’s eyes, as if the mask wasn’t even there. It was piercing in a way Hua Cheng couldn’t describe. “but I was bit by a radioactive spider after an experiment; and I lost my beloved to a villain I’d considered as my own father.”

Xie Lian’s figure was cast in shadow. It was the dawn and sunlight rose, shining behind him. It made his white suit appear a similar shade to Hua Cheng’s dark one. A contrast, but alike.

“Now, I am spiderman from dimension 817-4. Most call me Taizi Dianxia, but my real name,” He placed a hand over Hua Cheng’s chest. “is Xie Lian.”

i made pokemon teams for like almost every carmen sandiego character

started making these like a month ago bc i thought it’d be fun. went with no legends, no repeats on one team. teams + my explanations for them under the cut.

carmen’s team:

ampharos 

blaziken

quaquaval

thievul

whimsicott

weavile

i’d imagine ampharos was her first pokemon, because… black sheep. blaziken fits the red, plus it and quaquaval remind me of how carmen fights. thievul, whimsicott, and weavile are all because.. thief. also, i tried choosing pokemon from a wide range of regions for her.

player’s team:

porygon2

litten 

abra 

elgyem

munna

rotom 

porygon2 and rotom for hacker reasons. i’d imagine he doesn’t really battle that much, so all are nfe

ivy’s team:

revaroom 

unfeasant

herdier

klinklang 

magneton

tinkaton 

revaroom because cars, unfeasant and herdier are common pokemon in unova, klinklang, magneton, and tinkaton all because of her being a mechanic 👍

zack’s team:

snorlax

orthworm 

quagsire 

bidoof

deino 

tepig

all no thoughts, head empty. most are big eaters as well. 

shadowsan’s team

crobat

ninjask 

jolteon 

drapion 

glalie 

kartana 

all were either chosen for speed or for knowing evasion boosting moves- with the exception of kartana, which i chose because i think it would be fun to give all of the vile faculty one ultra beast. additionally, i thought it’d be fun to do the pokemon villain team thing of “giving them a crobat (or other pokemon that evolves via friendship) to show that they’re not all that evil”

chase’s team:

pyroar 

gumshoos

furfrou

talonflame 

absol

gogoat

all but gumshoos are available in kalos bc.. french. gumshoos is a detective, so i thought it’d fit him as well. also i think it’s silly to give him an absol and imagine it loses its shit every time he enters a car

julia’s team:

purrloin 

runerigus

golett

mismagius

gourgeist 

frillish

giving her a near-mono ghost type team wasnt what i thought i’d do, but i actually think it fits with her focus on history. purrloin because i absolutely believe she has a pet cat, runerigus and golett especially to fit in with her interest in history. i also don’t imagine her as being much of a battler.

chief’s team:

liepard

purugly

garchomp

corviknight

greninja

gliscor

went for more intimidating looking pokemon- with the exception of liepard and purugly, which i chose because of her cat. also garchomp always makes me think it’s wearing a suit, which is part of why i gave her one. also all have a sort of blue-purple color scheme going on, which i thought fit with her.

coach brunt’s team:

emboar 

conkeldurr

throh 

sawk

bewear 

buzzwole

wanted to give her a mono fighting type team- all unovan except for bewear and buzzwole. bewear because “mama bear” and hugging :) and buzzwole as her ultra beast because of its massive attack stat

dr. bellum’s team:

reuniclus

beheeyem

tastugiri 

alakazam

archeops

xurkitree 

wanted to give her some absurdly, comically intelligent pokemon, as well as at least one fossil (and archeops is my fav fossil lol). xurkitree as her ultra beast because high special attack + wanted to throw at least one electric type in there.

countess cleo’s team:

gardevoir

hatterenne

gothitelle

florges (white)

lilligant

pheromosa 

me: you better not be serving cunt when i get over there

cleo’s team:

professor maelstrom’s team:

malamar

spiritomb

hypno

sigilyph

starmie 

nihelego

wanted to give him a kind of freaky looking, mind alternating weirdo team. nihilego as is ultra beast for that reason, plus bonus jellyfish points

roundabout’s team:

copperajah

boltund

inteleon 

dragapult

hatterene

dracovish

wanted to give him a fairly standard galar team.. minus dracovish, which i have to imagine there’s a ton of arguments over the morality of owning in the pokemon world. additionally, inteleon because. spy.

crackle’s team:

electivire

luxray

jolteon

rotom

raichu

vikavolt 

electric monotype team! wanted to also give him pokemon that are more.. animalistic? friendly looking? idk how to describe it

tigress’s team:

liepard

delcatty 

incineroar 

meowscarada 

meowstic

pyroar

kitty cat :) i’d imagine her as having specifically female meowstic and pyroar as well.

le chèvre’s team:

gogoat

garchomp

tyranitar

noivern

lycanroc (midnight form)

salazzle

look i know this one isn’t the best fit but there’s only so many goat pokemon, and i wanted to go the rock climbing route instead, but then i realized that salazzle reminded me of his suit so here we are.

el topo’s team:

excadrill

clodsire

swampert

camerupt

dugtrio 

sandslash

excadrill is obvious, and also wanted to give him a mono ground team. also all very friendly cute looking little guys on his team, which i think fits well.

mime bomb’s team:

mr mime

mr rime

zoroark

primarina 

drifblim

ditto

mr mime and rime for obvious reasons, zoroark and ditto because of the disguise, primarina and drifblim because i was trying to think of things at a circus. also because i think he’d probably try to use his drifblim to kidnap kids or some shit.

dash haber’s team:

froslass

leavanny 

gardevoir

alolan ninetales 

vespiquen

milotic

similar to cleo, wanted to give him a slayful team. additionally, all are special attackers (or technically mixed attackers but would be using their special attack i just wanted to try to give him a sa based team lmao)

paper star’s team:

kartana 

hatterene 

mimikyu

banette

froslass 

cacturne

i know i said i’d only give vile faculty ultra beasts but like.. how could i not give her a kartana. the rest are just cute but very fucked up little guys. also she reminds me of a cacturne.

lady dokuso’s team:

venusaur

crobat

arbok

gengar

roserade

toxapex

poison monotype team, obviously

the mechanic’s team:

klinklang

excadrill

coalossal

grapploct

aggron 

revaroom

mostly steel types, but also coalossal because of powering things and grapploct because i just. really wanted to give her one. plus extra galar/british points

the driver’s team:

salamence 

electrode

noivern

weavile

salazzle

cinccino 

focused mainly on speed for her pokemon. also i just think that the idea of her with a cinccino is very cute

neal the eel’s team:

eelektross

ninjask

wugtrio

alolan muk 

sandaconda

dragalge

for neal, i chose eelektross for obvious reasons, and the rest either for speed or evasion boosting moves. also i chose alolan muk over regular muk because i think he’d like the colors

otter man’s team:

gumshoos

lucario

froslass 

weavile

frosmoth 

houndoom 

tbh i made his team a while ago and i don’t remember the thought process for anything beside from i thought he looked like a gumshoos and wanted him to have ice types

moose boy’s team:

hariyama

abomasnow

mamoswine 

beartic

baxcalibur 

galarian darmanitan

all ice types, all big, hard-hitting guys.

spinkick’s team:

hitmonlee

blaziken

scrafty

mienshao

hawlucua 

tsareena

all can learn high jump kick lol. plus mostly fighting types. tsareena was chosen even thought it’s not a fighting type because its entire gimmick is kicking things

flytrap’s team:

volcarona

togekiss 

decidueye 

yanmega

galvantula

greninja

all special attackers! chose galvantula specifically bc it can learn sticky web as well.

the troll’s team:

porygon-z

rotom

metagross 

kadabra 

umbreon

dedenne

porygon-z and rotom for the same reason as player, but i’d imagine he’d be more willing to use the dubious disk. also, for kadabra, i liked the concept of him not being able to trade with anyone to evolve it lol. 

madame goldlove’s team:

gholdengo 

azumarill

steelix 

aegislash

meowstic

kommo-o

all are shiny- i thought it’d be fun to make her a shiny hunter, specifically for these since all of them are gold shinies.

pls lmk what you think of them or if you have any more ideas or suggestions ^_^

INSOMNIA

The composition of this music video is objectively a masterpiece. The fucking scene where hes running and it switches between them as the windows pass. The similarities between the childlike view of it and what actually happened. TOBI CAMEO!?!?!? THE ONE AND ONLY!?!?!

Hanging jumpscare was crazy though

No I wont shut up about it.

julethief extra following up after this post .. because.. im feeling .. soft.…
