big ol' disclaimers:

I like to write horror and as such horror themes like Violence, Blood, Gore, Death, Body Horror, Existential Dread and other topical themes will be present on this blog, I try to tag everything necessary but I have a Swiss Cheese Memory and Soup for Brains. Viewer discretion is always advised

non-rp blogs welcome but please be mindful of what posts you're interacting with, this isn't your typical fandom blog.

This blog probably won't be spoiler free, this is your warning. if you don't want those it's a good idea to come back after you've played all the games. or read the wikipedia for 1 & 2 and play 3 & 4.

I am in no way shape of form affiliated with Penny Arcade, OTRSPOD, or the studios involved with the games.

//Hey! Sorry to go on an unintentional hiatus only to come back with a post like this and I don't feel great about this either but I'm going to be honest, it's still very stressful, very hectic and still very rough food and money wise here. I am trying to get a job but the job market is awful right now.

So, to put it bluntly, I have some silly cat adoptables up for sale to hopefully buy some food and stretch it out for a while. You can see them down below.

VERY IMPORTANT: I can only take payments through Ca.sh.app as it's the only payment app I can use as I do not have an ID or use payment apps that require an ID. I apologize in advance.

VINTAGE HEART ($10 USD) - Available COOL AS ICE ($10 USD) - Available REANIMATED ($10 USD) - Sold! K1-TTY CAT ($10 USD) - Sold

A transparent version of the adoptable will be provided and sent through DMs upon purchase.

[mechahero]

//I’m so sorry to come back to bump this again. Rent is due and my family is short a few dollars to pay it. If anyone could buy one so we don’t get evicted, that would be nice.

[mechahero]

//Talked to my dad about how much we need to full cover the rent. We are six dollars short and the deadline to pay is tomorrow. We can try to get an extension to hopefully scrape up more cash if we can but we’re not sure if the office will allow us to do so.

I don’t like to beg but Just. Anything. Please.

ᝰ🚬 𝚉𝙰𝙲𝙷𝚁𝙿 .ᐟ HOWL'S MOVING CASTLE (2004) PROMPTS. CHANGE ANY PRONOUNS IF NECESSARY. SOME MATURE THEMES MAY BE PRESENT.

demons don't make promises.

we just closed the shop.

ok. i'll be right there.

i hate fish.

you bugs better run before i bite your heads off!

i'm ready.

you've done enough work.

i know how to help you now.

just shut up.

i can't live like this.

as soon as this war is over, i shall return.

wait a second, you're all gonna eat while i do all the work?

i'm fatter than ever, yet the wind blows right through me.

it's gorgeous!

i'll look forward to your return, big boy.

don't come in here.

i'm sick of being treated like some timid little old lady.

i feel terrible, like there's a weight on my chest.

you see? your moustache scares all the girls.

i brought you some warm milk. want a sip?

do you know how hard it is to do things when you're old?

i can't believe it's come to this.

i've never once been beautiful in my entire life!

tell me what's happening.

hey, i'm over here.

i was in big trouble back there.

i'd appreciate it if you didn't torment my friend.

are you hurt?

i actually like living here.

i've got a bad cold, i don't want you to catch it.

i'm sure you have some kind of spell on you.

i want to know what you want.

can you lead me to him?

i'm afraid you will have to leave now.

that is not what i meant when i asked for a place to stay.

now whatever you do, don't look down.

how did you get to be so kind?

i never should have let her in here.

all our fish were caught fresh this morning.

don't worry. he only preys on pretty girls.

i'm just setting things up so that all of you can live a comfortable life.

i see no point in living if i can't be beautiful.

you're so eloquent today.

be gentle with me, please.

that's so strange.

what possessed you to let them in the house?

if you'd like to do me one more favor...

thank goodness you're here!

you girls are so mean.

i have this weird feeling that you're going to leave.

you ok? i mean, you smell terrible.

don't hold it against them, they're actually not all that bad.

some big help you're gonna be.

you live around here?

don't worry, i can cook.

i can't stand how scared i am.

i searched everywhere for you!

oh, no, i'm not lost.

i just need a glass of water.

you promise to help me if i help you?

leave me alone.

no, he's fine. he's just throwing a tantrum.

you'll forgive me, won't you?

that's good to know.

i know where i am.

i can't remember the last time we had a real breakfast.

i am strictly forbidden to offer such assistance.

what time do you get off?

so, you are going away?

my own kind attacked me today.

he's acting like a big baby.

i can't do this.

we have to try something.

you should go home anyway and tell your king to stop this dumb war.

i can't do it by myself.

let's get a better look.

hey, don't worry. the ring that i gave you will guide you back home.

i've never seen the ocean before! it's beautiful!

it's not funny.

go away! quit following me!

i've had enough of this place!

you've been sighing all day.

here. want some more?

strapping, young men are so difficult to deal with.

you get back here right now!

sometimes he likes to go away for days on end.

i love you. you have to stay.

do i look ok?

need anything else?

i can be of help to you.

you're gonna have a very hard time getting rid of that one.

someone's got a fire going.

i feel so at home.

you are so lucky.

are you in pain?

you were alone?

i was so thrilled to have finally found someone talented enough to replace me.

i have to rest a bit.

are we going for a stroll?

i did what i was told.

i'm not trying to outwit you.

don't you love early morning markets?

i'll stand guard out front.

wait, you can't come up here!

too bad i'm not younger, or i'd lend you a hand.

we can do this, just act natural.

have you ever been in love before?

do you have a kettle?

only idiots believe what they read in the paper.

i've never seen it so close!

it's time to put an end to this idiotic war.

just go inside, go to bed.

he doesn't need your help.

i barely recognize the place.

now i'm too scared to go out!

gross. i feel sick.

didn't i teach you better?

you really want it that badly?

i'm too old to be treated like this!

i don't care if you're a monster.

you must be tired.

hey. looks like a little mouse lost its way.

what a handsome man.

i kind of missed you guys.

it's your life, do something for yourself for once, will you?

do you really want to spend the rest of your life in that hat shop?

what? i can't fly,

thought i'd drop by rather than sit through a dull war meeting.

you're beautiful!

now i'm repulsive.

i could have sworn i locked that door.

what a tacky shop.

i'm afraid the king would find him completely useless.

you are a natural.

i hate potatoes.

i love it when you talk like that.

there's no need to thank me, you don't owe me a thing.

curses are tough.

are you crazy? i can't move

you're killing yourself.

i told you it would collapse.

what a dump.

it looks like your true love is in love with someone else.

how would you like a bucket of cold water in your face?

what do you think?

maybe there's a cabin nearby.

don't look at me.

what if i dump a bucket of water on you?

who are your guests?

let's go, girls.

i think you and i need to have a nice, long, heart-to-heart chat.

you're by far the tackiest thing here.

quit bothering me, i've got a job to do.

i didn't mean to make you wait this long.

it wasn't a dream.

come on in, it's time to eat!

look what you've done to my hair!

you've got quite a nasty spell on you too.

he's gone.

pay up.

there you are, sweetheart. sorry i'm late.

i don't know what's gonna happen, but i'm sure it won't be good.

i'm not taking any orders from you.

i'm gonna take good care of you.

i'd never seen such a gifted student.

are you listening?

i'm tired. make some hot water for my bath.

i am very sorry to hear that.

this charm will guarantee your safe return.

he's such a lazy son,

i'm sick of being stuck out here

it always looks like that.

don't you want to have some bacon and eggs?

what's going on?

what on earth were you up to?

all right. i better get going then.

are you kidding?

it seems everyone in this family's got problems.

how old are you, anyway?

i specifically ordered you not to get carried away!

i've always hated turnips, ever since i was little.

nobody wants to go to war.

she's even cuter when she's scared.

i need some breakfast.

why don't you just give up?

i spent a lot of time here by myself when i was young.

when i think castle, this is not what i picture.

of course he did. he was trying to steal your heart!

i bet he's some kind of demon.

it looks like it's gonna rain.

do you have to keep smoking that?

so. we've got a lot of work to do.

you'd be good at it.

wait for me!

i was looking everywhere for you.

that's my girl.

you need to be more careful.

why did you make me come here if you were coming yourself?

why don't you come out with us this time?

that boy is extremely dangerous.

don't get alarmed, but i'm being followed.

give him a piece of your mind.

i would never work for that witch!

i'm just going to the bakery.

i hope you and your new husband will be very happy.

you look so much older.

if you're a demon, how do i know i can trust you?

i just wanted to make sure that you were doing ok.

that was the most fun i've had in ages.

i got you some new clothes too, but you can open them later.

i missed you.

where are you going?

it's a trap.

if i ever get my hands on that witch, i'm going to wring her fat neck!

where to? i'll be your escort this evening.

i'll just stay in bed all day, so you go on.

you're gonna be fine.

we've got a good lead now.

what did you do?

do you really think i'd let a witch in here?

it's a present for you.

you're being so obedient.

i'm so sorry, but that would be confidential information.

well, the nice thing about being old is you've got nothing much to lose.

what will happen to you?

i better finish this, you go and have fun.

just keep following that light and you should be there before dark.

you're scaring me.

you're in love.

that was really kind.

i had him escort you here.

come on! you should feel sorry for me!

he was so kind to me.

told you we should've stayed put.

i better be going.

he must have been a wizard then.

looks like we have yet another addition to the family.

he's my errand dog.

she keeps staring at me, it's freaking me out.

don't give me that.

it's dangerous out there.

that is one bad curse.

did you hear what happened to that girl?

you obviously don't know what these people are like.

i'm getting angry.

what on earth happened to you?

so then, how are you feeling?

i should really get back to work.

you couldn't think of something a bit more useful?

[libromanic]

A soft chuckle erupted from the scholar's very soul as he gently put his free hand on the brute's other shoulder whilst he held the dry gauze to the wound.

Fancying himself especially observant when it came to the other, he quickly took note of the subtle squirming on Gabe's end, gaze focused in on every minute shift or change. Not unlike a hawk, he watched carefully for every minor reaction, almost delighting in the most barely perceptible of responses.

How exciting.

" Dear Gabriel, that's exactly what it means to falter, I'm afraid. "

Yet another chuckle rang out from the man as he turned his attention back to the wound, clicking his tongue in thought.

" I wonder how you'd respond if I pressed down, just a little bit harder, " Tycho mused quietly, eyes half-lidded with that ever-present smirk gracing his lips. Experimentally, he applied more pressure to the gash, just enough to be noticeable and cause a slight sting with the residuals of alcohol.

[luciculus]

Under normal circumstances, Tycho's laughter would've been welcomed, and even encouraged. Unfortunately, these circumstances were not normal, and each laugh only served to go right through Gabe in ways that would only serve to fuel the scholar's little 'game' if he knew.

The Brute pouts, head turning to finally look at Tycho as Gabe gives him his best glare. Though it doesn't end up as menacing as he wanted it to be, especially when he relaxes as a hand is placed on his undamaged shoulder.

"Do you rEALly-"

Gabriel's voice cracks as Tycho applies more pressure, the rest of his sentence dying right there with any shred of dignity he had left. The larger man bites his tongue and turns to look away again, hand lowered for the second time that night as he instead opted to grip his thigh.

There's a dusting of rosy pink slowly spreading across his face and ears as he tries his best to clear his throat. For a man who was attempting to make a point of not being affected, he certainly acted like he was.

"That did absolutely nothing." The heel of Gabe's foot rapidly thumps against the tile floor from where he sat, as he tried to keep himself as composed as he could with Tycho teasing him.

[luciculus]

((Hgello im fighting for my life!))

[luciculus]

((i will never not be obsessed with Gabe getting called "a hulking thing that clung to [Tycho] like a dark moon"))

[luciculus]

((back from playing games, got lots to think about now))
