Alright, two-parter concerning YGO2 018 Dark Magician Girl's Arcane Alliance trait. When it says any two powers a friendly piece possesses, does that mean 1. It has to be currently on the dial, or can it be any power they possess anywhere on the dial? And 2. If a special power specifically states that the character possesses, rather than can use, a power, can that power be selected for the trait? Always has stumped my judge.
1. Yes, it has to be currently showing on the dial for DMG to use the powers, otherwise it would say “any two powers a friendly piece possesses anywhere on it’s dial.”
2. If the trait specifically says the character possesses the power, it can be selected with DMG’s trait.
i had a dream last night. or, well, between 11:00 am and 3:00 pm. it was awesome

would you believe me if i told you this was one of my fav dreams instead of a nightmare
ok so i had this dream that was about this lil babby but the babby and her mom (who was the dead blonde chick from childhood's end for some reason) got kidnapped by the villain from the end of the first ep of the magicians (aka some guy in a suit who instead of a head just has a swarm of... locusts?? moths??) because my brain is very syfy. anyway someone brunette lady who was probably also on syfy found them zipped up inside of a duffel bag on the streets somewhere but alive but something about the baby's eyes was weird
then i just remember chasing some long-black-haired girl through the streets and we kept running past people who were doing shifty stuff bc it was really damn late at night. then i finally caught up with her and we got into a pretty brutal fight where i was just trying to murder her bc i knew she was going to do terrible things. i think i gouged out one of her eyes and scratched up her face pretty bad (i think she bled dark purple) but she won bc she like... pulled off the first layer of my skin and then another starting from my torso outward so you could start to see my organs through my skin eventually. thank fuck this wasn't one of those dreams i feel stuff in!! after that "i" (i don't think i was me but i can't really remember who i was, i feel like at this point i started being dicro though) blacked out and woke up in a bunch of webbing attached to a massive christmas tree in the center of town (notably with all flesh included) and i was pisssssssed
then it went back to babby and the father kept talking about how he was going to possess her or someth so the family would keep asking her what she saw when she looked at things. she would see he relatives just fine and she loved everything but when she saw her reflection she would go on and on in this lovecraftian rambling about bugs and the mother would cry
then one day i guess babby got fully possessed or something and sprouted extra limbs ad became more insectoid and maybe killed her family?? idk bc the next thing was birthday party yaaaay!!! there was some party arranged for her by her father at some fancy hotel and he invited a bunch of different people from across entirety to come celebrate and there were 12 of the most important people there and idk what they were supposed to be important for aside from spoilers. anyway the people i can remember being there were:
almaz was sitting next to the babby aka "the princess" who looked to be around 4-7 idk by now. she like gasped when she saw him and asked for his autograph and he flipped his shit bc holy shit!!! someone was asking HIM for an autograph!!! so he signed enthusiastically and almost cried and sapphire was like "wow what a dork (that i am married to)". then they (minus the princess now) were talking to hinata bc hinata was kind of the main character for a while i guess and then it was time for the festivities to begin!
and then the princess looked like echelle kinda with red eyes and really more eyes and fangs and a bunch of red limbs and she grew inside and like.... idk if they were limbs or machines but these things suddenly swung down and grabbed the 12's faces because it turns out they were actually going to be sacrifices!!! and these other things extended that were going to rip out their eyes and everyone was paralyzed and for some reason perspective switched to orange's last thoughts and someone was trying to tell the princess that things didn't have to be like this and that she could push her dad out of control and i remember there were so many other details about the princess' life and her father that i'm forgetting that came before all of this bc it was one long-ass dream with loads of story but anyway it wasn't working bc she was totally brainwashed and all hope was lost
BUT THEN!!!!!!!!! all of the whatevers got severed from the top via chains and everyone was free!!! and from right outside of the room it was.... dicro!!!!!!!!!! back from christmas tree spider hell even though everyone thought he was dead (again)!!!!!!! but he was trying to put some boots on for some reason and was planning a dramatic entrance but everyone came rushing out anyway and ruined it ):< anyway he was pissed and ready to kick some ass and everyone was like "hell yeah motherfucker" except for the people who were just like straight-up human and were like "uh... No??"
anyway this is where things started to stop being cohesive bc i was starting to wake up or my brain was out of ideas. like... suddenly memen was there and everything was her idea and she was behind everything?? but then the princess went into her final form and the dad was watching and it was suddenly like a kaiju battle in the city?? and there were people talking about idk at several points that i can't remember. and i'm pretty sure the princess tortured people at some point or was going to with bugs while the dad kept talking shit to everyone?? there was like so much scattered shit that happened and i can't really remember any of it which is unfortunate because man it was so cool... it was like the longest, most developed and cohesive story i've ever had in a dream
also there was something about mario kart at some point or another, i think that was early on. and that's all i remember! i don't even remember how the dream ended rip
au where everyone in the carpool is one of dicro’s cats:
ansaiele is just the biggest fluffiest sweetest cuddliest cat in the world, she just follows dicro around everywhere and is lapcat at every opportunity and sleeps in his bed and is just in general a very good cat
celethia is the cat who mostly keeps to herself and sits in windows a lot and will let you pet her but not a lot and you have to ease into it, you have to be strategic with your cuddles unless she is blessing you with the snuggles in the first place. she acts like she won’t leap up and steal your chicken nugget while you’re not looking but she will
ignis is terrible and a jerk, every time to try to pet him he just hisses at you and bites you or scratches you. god help you if he steals your spot, you’ll never see it again. he has to have his own separate food bowl bc otherwise he’ll fight everyone and you’ll need like armored guards to protect your chicken nuggets. dicro keeps giving him treats but it’s not really doing it. dicro probably accidentally touched him once and didn’t get hissed at and that was probably the most important moment of his life
thyx is basically a dog trapped in a cat’s body. he wants to play all the time and he begs at the table and is simultaneously excited and scared by everything and will always be lapcat when you least want him to be lapcat. he’s still a good cat tho and the second snuggliest
i like to think that when noctalle is present for Important Brotherhood Stuff and she gets bored she just like... lets her eyes swim around her face in the eldritch version of a bored kid going crosseyed
i imagine it’s quite distracting for everyone else and eventually green just has to lay down the law and say “hey, cut that out” only to be answered with loud hissing and pouting
