So just to check.
Vampire Ryoji.
Your mom isn’t like Nyx the vampire queen or anything, right?
(Just covering bases)
Nahhhhhh thats silly and ridiculous and he would never do that and he would never lie to Minato to protect him from the fucked up ways of most of vampire royalty
On a completely unrelated note, Ryoji is chuckling nervously in the corner now
Welcome home.

Hey look I finally named my KH Soulmate au
Now tell me which Fluffy SoRiku I should draw
PLEASE SIGNAL BOOST THIS! RUSSIA HAS BLOWN UP THE KHAKIBKA HYDROELECTROSTATION DAM AND IS FLOODING COUNTLESS UKRAINIAN TOWNS AND VILLAGES! THIS IS THE BIGGEST ECOLOGICAL CATASTROPHE IN EUROPE SINCE CHORNOBYL! Post written and provided by @ohsalome: Now, the situation is desperate. I know I've bothered you with donations recently, but this is a time-sensitive matter. I've collected several organisations that are currently helping to evacuate people from the territory that is/will be soon flooded. Please, please, send them any cent you can and signal boost this, the things are really BAD and we need as much help as we can get: Vostok SOS helps people evacuate from dangerous territories, since the beginning of the war they've already helped 46 000 people. Elderly and disabled people are of an extra need of assistance. Helping to leave is another organization that has been helping evacuate people from occupied territories, and is currently gathering funds to help people in Kherson region.
Denys Fedko is a volunteer who currently collects money for fuel, which is always in short stock during war; and general evacuation needs.
PEOPLE ARE DROWNING, THE ECOLOGICAL SYSTEMS ARE BEING WIPED OUT! THIS IS SOME OF THE MOST FERTILE SOIL ON THE EARTH, WHICH HAS BEEN GROWING GRAIN FOR EXPORT TO HUNDEREDS OF COUNTRIES, INCLUDING THE ONES MOST DEPENDANT ON FOREIGN EXPORTS!
Here you can also donate to the Firefighters foundation that works directly with The State Emergency Service of Ukraine. They're collecting money to buy a lot of motor pumps tu pump the water from flooded areas.
There's also this link from UAanimals fundraising money to save animals affected by flooding. This is a trusted source, please donate.
The UAnimals team has already mobilized to evacuate animals from the dangerous areas. We will do everything possible to help those in need.Y
remember that any donation matters

What The Hell World.
I'm totally in support of the writers in theory but I'm trying to understand more of what you're fighting for because I've seen some people on twitter claim writers make more money a week than most of us make in a month so I'm trying to understand what the issue is. Also if that info is accurate. This is a genuine question. Not trying to have a "gotcha moment". I really want to hear from a writer.
people have always had wild misconceptions about how much a writer earns because of their lack of understanding of how the industry actually works. there's so many posts about how "you guys make 5k a week. what more do you want?!" yeah...let's do some math on that.
5k a week for 14 weeks (and that's a long room. a lot of rooms these days are 8-10 weeks. those are the dreaded mini-rooms we're trying to kill) is $70,000. for roughly three months of work. you'd think we're cooking with gas...BUT HOLD UP. that's gross! let's see everything that has to come out of that check:
10% to our agent
10% to our manager
5% to our entertainment attorney
5% to our business manager (not everyone has one but a lot of us do. i do, so that's literally 30% immediately off the top of every check)
most of these breakdowns ive seen downplay taxes severely. someone made one that says writers pay 5% in taxes and i would like to ask them "in what universe?". that doesn't even cover state taxes. the way taxes work in the industry is really complicated, but the short of it is most of us have companies for tax reasons so we aren't taxed like people on w2s/1099. if we did we'd be even more fucked. basically every production hires a writer's company instead of the writer as an individual. so they engage our companies for our services and then at the end of the year we (the company) pay taxes as corporations or llcs (depending on what the writer chose to go with). my company is registered as a "corporation" so let's go with those rates. california's corporate rate is 9% and the federal tax rate is 21%. there's other expenses with having running a business like fees and other shit so my business managers/accountants/bookkeepers have recommended i save between 35-40% of everything i make for when tax season comes.
you see where the math is at already??? 25-30% in commissions and then 35-40% in taxes. on the lower end you're at THE VERY LEAST looking at 60% of that check gone. 70% worst case scenario. suddenly those $70,000 people claim we make are actually down to $28,000 as the take home pay. and that's if you're only losing 60%. It goes down to $21,000 if it's 70%.
lets pretend you worked a long 14 week room (that's the longest room ive ever worked btw) and let's also be generous and say you only have 60% in expenses so the take home is $28,000. average rent in los angeles is around $2,800-$3,000. if you're paying $2,800 in rent that means you need AT LEAST $4,000 a month to have a semi decent life since you need to also cover groceries, gas, medical expenses, toiletries, phone, internet, utilities, rental and car insurances, car payments, student loan payments, etc etc etc. and again, this is los angeles. everything is more expensive so you're living BARE BONES on 4k. and these are numbers as a single person. im not even taking having children into account. so those $28,000 you take home might cover your life for 6-7 months. 3 of which you're in the room working. the reality is that once that room ends, you might not work in a room again for 6-9-12 months (i have friends whose last jobs were over 18 months ago) and you now only have about 3 months left of savings to hold you over. we have to make that money stretch while we do all the endless free development we do for studios and until we get our next paying job. so...3 months left of enough money to cover your expenses -> possible 9 months of not having a job. this is how writers end up on food stamps or applying to work at target.
this is why we're fighting for better rates and better residuals. residuals were a thing writers used to rely on to get them through the unemployment periods. residual checks have gone down from 20k to $0.03 cents. im not joking.
they've decimated our regular pay and then destroyed residuals. we have nothing left. so don't believe it when they tell you writers are being greedy. writers are simply fighting to be able to make a middle class living. we're not asking them to become poor for our sake. we're asking for raises that amount to 2% of their profit. TWO PERCENT. this is a fight for writing even being a career in five years instead of something you do on the side while you work retail to pay your bills. if you think shows are bad now imagine when your writer has to do it as a hobby because they need a real job to pay their bills and support a family (which none of us can currently afford to have btw)
support writers. stop being bootlickers for billion dollar corporations. stop caring about fictional people more than you care about the real people that write them. if we don't win this fight it truly is game over. the industry as you know it is gone.

YA MOTHFLIGHT RANT TIME! To preface all of this. 2+ years since I read MF-Vision and never Read DotC books. Clear? Clear. Any fact checking is welcome(as long as its not insulting or not particularly backed by MothFlights-Vision)
RANT TIME
1. Adhd or what ever the thing is called. So Focus issues already
2. At the start of the bock she is noted to be barely out of kit hood and as apprenticeship and the hard Kit moon ruleset haven’t been even thought of, Ya she baby
3. Parental Abuse/Neglect. No Im not exaggerating or if I am Im not aware of it. They say to her ‘be more like your sibling’, they grumble and groan at her TRYING to be helpful. Theres one more thing, what was it? Oh Ya! THEY BANISH MOTHFLIGHT! And leave her to die in a hole!(okay, thats likely an exaggeration, Dont remember that part clearly just her and GreyDust I think was their name? Talking with her in a ditch and not being able to go home)
4. Need I say it?… No really need I even say it. She was the founder and she was really, Really trying but She just was not Heathly😔😞.
5. Her Mate/Boyfriend and co-founder Died right in front of her. So she was grieving, depressed and just lost a important support system.
6. She was Preg, and found out a few days AFTER HER MATE DIED. So along with being the job foundef she also had to deal with being a single teen CHILD mom with her emotional baggage.
Am I missing anything major or semi-major? If yes, just reblog and add it.
Now Final thoughts
When your hamster shoves an entire stick of zucchini in his cheek and then goes about his day. 🤣
Are they …. Just Flappy skin balls? Like. Does their skin even concet to their innards or is it just a loss wrapper?
Villain: “You and I are very much alike, you know.”
Hero: “I realize that.”
Villain: “Doesn’t that trouble you?”
Hero: “Why would it? I share most of my genome with sewer rats.”
Villain: “But our similarities mean that, deep down, you’re a bad person. There’s nothing stopping you from being just as evil as I am!”
Hero: “Sure there is. I’m stopping me.”
Villain: “But in your heart you crave—”
Hero: “Sometimes when I’m in a crowded building I get the sudden urge to just boop a stranger right on the nose. But I don’t do it, because that would be super rude and weird. Does having that compulsion in the first place make me just as much of a weirdo as if I had acted on it? Maybe it does in your eyes, but to the would-be boopee, it makes all the difference in the world.”
Villain: “We’re not talking about booping noses, we’re talking about killing peop—”
Hero: “Look, dude, I’m sure murder can be really satisfying. But I’ve decided that I don’t want to murder people, and I think that’s very sexy of me. Look at me. With a little self-restraint, you might have had what I have.”
Villain: “But surely it disturbs you, doesn’t it? To know how close you are to snapping. Don’t deny it. There’s so much darkness in your heart. Do you really think they’d still love you if they knew? They’d be disgusted by you. They’d hate you, for thinking so much like me.”
Hero: “That’s the difference, isn’t it? Between you and I. One tiny difference. That’s all it takes. That’s the line between good and evil.”
Villain: “What?”
Hero: “You saw your own darkness and let it destroy you. You surrendered to it the moment you realized it was there. You threw open the door for it and welcomed it inside and let it rob you of your humanity without even a word of protest because you just couldn’t imagine it was something you could fight.”
Villain: “And you, oh-so-sanctimonious one?”
Hero: “I said ‘no thanks’. That’s it. That’s the difference.”
Villain: “Did you just—did you just—”
Hero: “Boop your nose? You’re right. It did feel good.”
Villain: “Well, you’ve had your fun. I suppose you expect me to come back to the angels, right? To find the light that was within me all along? To realize that, deep down, I’m really a good man at heart?”
Hero: “No. I don’t believe in that crap.”
Villain: “What?”
Hero: “I don’t give a shit who you are ‘deep down’. That doesn’t matter. Good guys, bad guys—there’s no such thing. Just people. Just people who get up each morning and decide whether they’re gonna try to save the world or burn it down.”
Villain: “If there’s no such thing as a ‘good person’, according to you, then what on Earth would be the appeal of redemption?”
Hero: “I’m just saying. Maybe you should try a new morning routine.”
Do not blame me for who I am. The doctor prescribed me 20 mL of #pharos twice a day.
Hhaahha
Hi! This is serious,
Well my point is but..
I wont be explaining or going into any details
———warning here———
So due to knowing my self I have tried to limit the amount I ‘Villainize’ or ‘Bash’ characters. Especially female characters who most would say ‘oh you only do that cuz they get in the way of YOUR SHIPZz or shit’. bla. no, sometimes its cuz I need a villain but ANY WHO! Why say all this now?? WeLL See- IRL thing and NOW I have no restraint for a Certain Persona Lady. Move over Yukari, you no longer need to be the Bi—h in my SMT au things… CUZ NOW RISE IS DEAD MEAT! …. Well sort of?? Eh just…if you like Rise…just treed carefully in any of my future persona or SMT things. Sigh, why couldn’t the IRL thing relate to Yukari instead ATLEAST THEN I could punt her and feel justified. Aaaggg! Look I repeat I only have the basic ish out line for in-game events and the first 3 p3 movies to go off of(and PQ1 I guess) But THe lines and her attitude(along with my general feeling/view of SEES when compared to P4 and P5 groups) she just.. Look, she’s a sexist female-dog.
Putting this here, So I don’t have to look at it😋
