Hello Crackhead Childer.

I exist

Finally decided to watch Project Hail Mary against my better judgment. I was scarred by Iron Lung, and didn’t want to see the cute alien dead.

Thank god this was the good ending. It was wonderful to watch, and while I prefer Iron Lung because of its lore and Markiplier, I loved Project Hail Mary.

Now it’s time to become a BloodyMary shipper-

Finally finished Owl House with my dad. He agrees: it sucks it got cut short, but it’s still INCREDIBLE.

That’s all I got from him. There was SO much we could have learned and seen, but alas… we only skipped the body swap episode and Rulers Reach because… fuck those two in particular-

Still was a wonderful show. Final battle was absolutely the best fight in the show, even if I prefer Hunter v. Amity. He doesn’t think the show is as good as Gravity Falls, but finds it good in a different way.

Neoni is a wonderful group to see. I just came from their concert in St. Louis and definitely need to sleep, but I really want to say that seeing them in person was incredible.

For one, the opener Marielle Kraft was very personable. Loved her the second she started singing. So proud of her for finding happiness and being a safe space for others. She was a wonderful opener ❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜

The two boys who I can’t find names for (please tell me them if they’re official members, I feel SO bad for not knowing) were funny while basically testing things. We had a fucking Universal sound recall while testing the drums. It made sitting there and getting way too tipsy and knowing it was a bad idea fun while I waited for the main event.

When it came to Neoni themselves, the sisters were kind and sweet. At random moments, audience members close to the stage would be given the chance to let the girls take their phones and basically add to their recordings, letting their faces be seen and adding an angle from her pov. I myself never had the courage to come close and was close to the back of the bar since I didn’t want to push through the crowd, but they were so sweet and kind. I may not have known a few of the songs (I had no idea Champion was theirs), but it was a blast! I never met them personally, but they were great to watch onstage. I made a friend at the concert as well, and FINALLY found another Tangled fan in the wild.

Dark Pop may be their genre, but their attitude is incredible. Fully aware this is so different from what I usually post, but I have to talk about it. I’ve been dreading knowing if my work would schedule me this week, but I’m so glad they got the memo and I got to see these girls who clearly loved performing as much as I loved seeing them. Thank you for such a wonderful night, Neoni. I’ll never forget it <3

i’m so sorry if someone made you think it’s hard to love you

[lunanightshade8]

I… really needed to hear this. Thank you.

I’m attempting to collect every Starlin Run Batman comic with Jason Todd (though I’m not sure if I’ll get Death in the Family since I like having money) and I read through them to get a better picture of what Starlin did to him (I have… so many thoughts on it.)

I just got to Ten Nights of Beast, and oh my god, there is no way there weren’t a bunch of gay men behind the original design of KGBeast.

Listen, I’ll make fun of Discowing all day long, but this is just… wow. The 80s were fucking WILD!

I am showing my Dad The Owl House. King is my dad’s favorite character and is very interested what King is. May be partially because he himself is a dad and wants to know who King’s dad is, but eh. It’ll be a very sad day when we get done with THAT episode.

We just got done with Knock, Knock, Knockin’ on Hooty’s door, which not only intrigued him because of the “WHEH” but ended with Hooty eating the letter.

If you ever show someone Owl House, do yourself a favor and watch their face while watching this episode. The faces my dad made when seeing Hooty from the Nine Circles of Hell and that ending are absolutely PRICELESS.

It is so weird as someone who likes DC characters and is trying to learn more to hear people talk about how much they hate casual fans who only know about stuff from comics via information on Tumblr or posts about it that may give someone a wrong impression of these characters when I’ve been in the FNAF fandom for so long.

Like, they both have canonicity problems and half the people in the FNAF fandom haven’t even played the games and everyone in the fandom knows it and is usually chill about it. Theres so much fucky lore and no one is quite sure what’s going on, and most of us accepted that the story is basically a writing prompt at this point. Some people haven’t, but it’s kinda just where we are.

Like… you’re no less a fan of FNAF if you’re still trying to get a grasp of the timeline than if you have your idea of it planned out. I feel like DC and Marvel should be the same way considering how much canon is eating itself and ESPECIALLY with how long it’s running. I do not know all these stories and I never will, and quite honestly? Neither will you.

[lunanightshade8]

I am showing my dad Owl House. We’ve only skipped the body swap episode and the one where King and Luz write a book because… fuck those-

That’s not the point, though! I am slowly getting him to appreciate the wonder that is Hooty. He will be one of us!

Taking ADHD medication is so weird.

I don't mean the process or just the fact I need to take them at all. That's a whole other thing. What I mean is how when I actually do take it, the things it blocks off or enables me to do is just... weird?

I currently feel like a drone and can't daydream ideas or read fanfiction.

However, I can actually get myself to write fanfiction for once. My writers block has been bad and apparently medication was the key.

I'm very confused by how this how my mind works when I actually take my pills, but hey. It's working!

[lunanightshade8]

Update: I wrote the rough draft of the 3000 word fic, start to finish, in 4 hours. Medication isn’t the answer for everyone and do not take it if you aren’t prescribed it, but I am… strangely proud of this.

So I finally finished Owl House…

Who at Disney saw the season 2 finale and thought “yeah, we’ve done enough.”?

Like NO???? I would love Owl House shorts of the time in the human world between Season 2 and 3.

I want to see Luz and Amity coming out and the fear that came with it!

I want to see Willow, Amity, and Luz struggling to be roommates!

I want to see Gus bonding with Hunter and letting him live the childhood he never had!

I want Camila struggling to deal with a greater basilisk, her daughter’s cotton candy girlfriend, an illusionist prodigy, a tree hugger, and the traumatized guard!

WE WERE CHEATED!

[lunanightshade8]

Finally watching Owl House after a year of avoiding it. Almost at the halfway point of season 2. Who was going to tell me it has two versions of my favorite character?

I love dark and gritty characters, or characters who go through a lot and are taking it out on others but could grow and change. I especially get attached to them when their family life is rough for some reason. If they are tough badasses who can kick butt, I am instantly on their side.

Amity and Hunter saw my requirements and decided to check off each and every single one. I am eternally pissed knowing Disney canned this show.

[lunanightshade8]

Episode 8 of The Amazing Digital Circus proved one thing.

Kinger may not be my favorite character, but he’s damn well the best.

[lunanightshade8]

Reading through some of my old fics I never posted. I keep being surprised by the twists and turns I took. Like damn… I did this?

[lunanightshade8]

Was watching Iron Lung (again) and… oh yeah. Spoilers below.

At the end when Ava is begging Simon to protect the Black Box, I heard the monster say that Ava was going to take the data herself and abandon Simon down there. Reported this to my dad, and his response was “why does everyone suck in that movie!? Simon is the best one and he’s a murderer!”

[lunanightshade8]

I remember someone in an Iron Lung review asked how people who didn’t watch Mark a lot felt about his acting (can’t find it again). Fortunately for me, I dragged my dad and his girlfriend to see it.

Not sure about his girlfriend, but my dad did not have high expectations and Mark blew it out of the water for him. He was surprised with how good his acting was since he was unaware about FNAF the Musical existing.

Said he felt like the delivery was great, but that some lines of dialogue themselves just… didn’t hit. It probably sounded cool on paper, but said aloud was just a touch cringe. He also said he did better than Josh Hutcherson in the FNAF movies, which… is totally fair.

Anyways, thought people may want to know about how someone who isn’t a lunatic feels about Iron Lung.

[lunanightshade8]

I just got back from Iron Lung. I will be talking spoilers.

For the record, my bar for how I feel about stuff is extremely low. I like a lot of stuff. It’s really easy for me to enjoy even the hottest of garbage.

I also like the game Iron Lung. I’m no loremaster, but I enjoy the story.

I also struggle with watching horror films. That was half the reason I almost didn’t go.

With that being said… holy crap, this film is good.

It’s not perfect, don’t get me wrong. I was enraptured with it the whole way through, but it felt slightly slow. Not much, but a bit. There was also some confusing bits like the voices at the end (am I just really stupid and think they mean something, or was he just hallucinating the voices of his victims? Idk-)

As I watched this film, I knew Simon was dead. We died in the game, and no way Simon got a happy ending. Even still, I kept thinking “maybe he lives?”

I really wanted him to live, and when talking to the hallucination, I felt a pit in my stomach. I felt dread the rest of the way through, to the point I still feel a bit nauseous half an hour later.

I know it wasn’t the blood making me nauseous since I don’t really feel sick at stuff like that, so it’s gotta be the dread, or maybe a mix. Genuinely, I don’t think a movie has made me this anxious and stressed in a long time.

Plus, it really reminds me of the two key pieces of Iron Lung as a story: What’s left to live for?, and that humanity will never stop fighting each other and being underhanded, even on the brink of extinction.

IGN, suck it. Markiplier made a better movie than Mufasa.
