✨Team Bolas Day 1 in a nutshell✨

[phannie-dreams]

Right, so, apparently the incoming phrebrand is haunting me cause I just dreamt they uploaded a like 2-3 minutes video and it started with Phil alone in the office, pre-phlonde just going hi guys! I’m from the past! And it had been prerecorded around his birthday 2023. Then! Cut to Dan and Phil just kinda sitting in a green screen studio with PJ like standing/slightly crouching between them, while Phil was showing off his birthday gift from PJ which was a like peggle themed cardboard cone with a green screen face?? (Don’t question I have no clue how to describe what that was but I looked like it was made by a 5th grader) and a pink/red like ping pong ball (important) and they’re chatting about how PJ didn’t have time to make anything big because they’re already working him hard with the tour dioramas. But then, for some reason, PJ asks them something (don’t remember what) and dnp just?? Start like soft-core unbuttoning each other’s shirts and like kissing each other’s torso/pants???? (No mouth kisses obviously gotta keep that plausible deniability) until PJ asks them something else and SUDDENLY??? they’re?? (Bare with me on that one idk either) like both shoving the ends of 2 sausages in their mouths (like double dildoll style??) and just kinda?? Sucking off the sausages??? And then PJ is like wait I wanna be included so it becomes a 3-way of sausage in mouth until dnp are like ‘nah that’s not right why tf are you joining our perfectly normal sausage sucking in front of a green screen’ and Phil just grabs the peggle ball aforementioned to?? Pass it back and forth to Dan with his mouth??? And they just keep making comments and silly innuendos (somehow) about sucking each other off and rimming (as if wtf they’re actually doing isn’t INSANE) whil pj is just fucking staring (with the sausages) UNTIL! CUT TO BLACK! THEN OPENS TO! DAN ALONE IN A KITCHEN! And the kitchen has got like animated little characters animated by pj just kinda running around and being goofy. Then Dan just says ‘I’m back, and I’m in a kitchen’ and POOF ‘Phil’ (random middle aged man with a receding hairline and glasses) appears and goes ‘im Phil, and I came back wrong’ and then Dan just announced that the new dnp was gonna be a chaotic cooking show but the twist is he’ll be with someone who isn’t Phil (except Phil was one of the people in the quick fancy cut to different episodes) and uh,,,,, yeah, I have no explanation for why my brain created this

Things that come in my head as I play through Diasomnia's chapter (chp 135- 191):

Woah wait I didnt expect that Snow White (Neige) will actually get encased in ice this time (courtesy of our favorite apple). Nicely done twst

AND VILSS BACK YES MY LOVE WELCOME BACK I MISSED YOUUU

Pomefiore is a family and you can fight me on this

That yelp— i can't even—

Wait WHAT YOU CANT JUST LEAVE VIL TF DO WE HAVE TO DO THIS ALL OVER AGAIN?!

The fact that Vil has and continues to deal with his overblot so maturely is one of the reasons he's one of my favorite characters. He is not playing blame games, he is not going down the 'oh woe is me' track. Just taking accountability and doing what he needs to to be better. I have mixed feelings about his overblot version attacks though—

I love it when Vil acts villainous hehe

The moment vil said "horrible" I had a feeling that he was talking about the info video Idia made and I was right lmao

Poor Silver, having to endure Vil and Sebek screeching in his ear during the dream jump

And now we meet Kalim! I like his outfit, that shade of teal and white really suits him. It also plays a nice homage to princess Jasmine and the sultan's signature outfit colors.

Kalim's father MADE a whole ass arcane academy to keep him close. As much as I'd like to joke about overprotective parents, a part of me wonders if the reason we're seeing this is because Kalim is homesick in twst's reality. Another reason could be to make sure that in case someone or something tries to hurt him, he'll be close enough to get immediate and the best aid money can buy. It could also be Malleus' own desire for families staying together slightly influencing the dream as well, considering that his perception of his fellow students and their desires does influence the dreams (as seen in Vil's case).

Okay my theory practically got debunked the next moment lol—

As much as I like seeing Jamil in those clothes and smiling, I would like my snarky snake boy back pls. I am so unsettled right now Jamil don't wink why are you winking—

Vil I love you, my queen I knew there was a reason I was drawn to you at the very start!!! Tell them your analysis on Jamil pls and get Kalim outta there!!

Never thought id see the words kalim and fearsome in the same sentence but tbh Vil makes so much sense—

And now we're heading off to Jamil's dream! And I guess all those magic carpet rides have rid Kalim of any queasiness with air travel huh. The same can't be said for our favorite queenie tho...

They left us alone for a minute, and we already got into trouble. It's times like these I wish the Prefect had more of an impact or opportunity to do things instead of being a mere bystander but oh well.

The Asim palace being relocated reminds me of the original Arabian Nights (One Thousand and One Nights) version of Aladdin where the evil magician tricks Aladdin’s wife into giving him the lamp by disguising himself and offering “new lamps for old.” Once he gets the magic lamp, he commands the genie to transport Aladdin’s entire palace, including the princess and all the servants, leaving an empty space where it once stood.

Black and red really suits Jamil. Also, student council president? Giving me mad Rollo vibes before the whole flower stunt he pulled.

This is a train wreck oooh.... but I love it when my boys get serious 🥰

Honestly the fight was long-overdue and much needed. It didn't really sit right with me how easily Kalim bounced back and accepted Jamil after the events of Scarabia's book, so I'm glad they addressed that here. Really shows how far our beloved boys have come ❤️

Ig its gonna be a trend for our ob boys to fight their overblots. I like Jamil's ob version attacks though.

And now we say bye to Vil and Kalim. Onto the next dream!

I dont think I've ever seen Floyd this calm and i dont know whether to be concerned or not—

Oh my god, Floyd just checked out of the dream manually because nothing he does is challenging? Guy's winning at life (in the dream atleast) no matter what he does and is bored because there's no unpredictable surprises or basically any obstacles for him to tackle, literally and figuratively. I love how his sprite just lazily drifts across the screen as the rest of them discuss what's wrong with him lol

I'm sorry, Floyd grabbed Riddle's hair, remarked it was red but not hot, and then promptly got thrown across the room on fire at their FIRST meeting? I don't know how this mer is still alive after that. The shenanigans this boy gets into i swear—

Floyd is all glittery and pretty! And so is Jade!

NPC Azul with the anime girl eyes... and NPC Floyd with that cartoonish face... I cant lmao im dying— And Sebek's UM saves the day!

Love how both Floyd and Jade wake up because of NPCs saying stuff that their real counterparts would never. And now it's time for Azul's dream!

Jade is milking the situation good lmao. He's definitely gonna make fun of Azul once the latter comes back to hid senses.

I dont like how silent both Floyd and Jade are being....

Oookay I hate this. I hate it. Azul better be ready to catch these hands once he wakes up.

Justice is served!

We love to see Azul change his tune whenever Jamil is involved lol. And love how Idia, Silver and Sebek are just like 'dont involve us in your misdeeds' to Jade, and he's just busy breaking glass to get to precious mushrooms and herbs

Jade is never going to beat the mafia allegations

The moment I heard Floyd had a plan, I had a feeling it would involve his UM and I was right!

And Azul's back to normal! And now the dream's shattering again. Time to meet Azul's OB self!

Jade and Floyd: We would never wait for someone who lags behind or slows us down.

Also Jade and Floyd when Azul is being summoned for his personal boss fight: AZUL–

I know a fake idgafer when I see one smh

Im glad that the OB boys are getting the chance to interact with themselves at their lowest points and consciously make the choice to do better or do things at their own terms rather than ruled purely by emotions or guilt. That kind of rational reasoning, and to a certain extent embracing those parts of themselves without demonizing it or letting it take control entirely makes all of them feel so much more fleshed out as characters. Its really satisfying to watch, and to get to try their OB!form attacks against the phantoms, even if the entire process is a bit tedious.

Azul try not to flirt with Jamil for once challenge:

Jamil don't say that its not a 'forever farewell' like that you're gonna give him ideas.

Our main dream team (Silver, Sebek, Grim and of course, the Prefect) are running on adrenaline at this point. Sure, there have been some moments where they've relaxed, but i only hope none of them burn out by the end.

Hi! I loved your Jean fic so much! 🥰🥰🥰

If you're still open to taking requests, could you possibly do one with an "enemies to lovers" and "hurt-comfort" tropes wherein reader and Jean are always arguing with each other (similar to the canon dynamic between Jean and Eren in the series), but Jean makes a remark that takes things too far and hurts the reader big-time so reader avoids him and Jean gradually realizes that he actually misses the reader.

lover boy !

in which jean's words finally get him in trouble.

cw : angst kinda??, asshole! jean, fem! reader, he gets better tho dw, angst to fluff.

"wow, fuck you jean" you bumped into him as you both played mario kart in connie's apartment. "not my fault you suck ass" he retorted.

your relationship with jean was complicated, to say the least. yea, you argued with each other but if anyone messes with you he'd beat their ass and the same goes for you with him.

you've been crushing on him for a while now but will you admit it? no. will you accept your friends' claims about him liking you back? no, obviously not.

this crush didn't come out of nowhere either, yes jean is very attractive but there are times when he's the nicest person to you. especially when you aren't feeling the best, he catches on to your emotions pretty quickly considering how close you two are.

like mentioned before it's complicated.

connie and sasha were giggling to themselves as they opened the pizza box you ordered. "honestly, why are you so annoying" you asked, "you only think i'm annoying cause i'm beating you in mario kart." he replied.

"that's not true, i think you're annoying all the time."

"uh huh, sure you do."

"ok, that's enough you two." sasha intervened. "anyways how'd that date go with that guy?" she changed the topic.

"shitty." you answered, her attempt to lift the mood had failed. "as expected." jean said.

"what's that supposed to mean?" you questioned, jean glanced at you and back at the tv. "i'm just saying that almost every date or relationship you've been in always ends up being "shitty" or whatever." he explained. "i'm starting to think maybe the problem isn't the guy.".

your eyes widened, "that's low, jean." connie said. "don't connie, i'm leaving." you said as you got your things. "c'mon, i didn't mean it like that" jean said, "yea, don't leave cause of him, please." sasha pleaded. "i'll text you when i get home." you said to sasha. and just like that you left.

"way to ruin the mood jean." connie remarked, "you better apologize."

it's been a week and you haven't talked to jean. and no, he hadn't even come to apologize to you.

honestly, he missed the banters or stupid fights you got with him a lot, and you missed him too but if what he said is what he really thinks then you're better off without him.

it got very awkward whenever you hung out with connie or sasha cause he's always there just looking at you, trying to say something but he just leaves, it's ridiculous.

so when he called you to "talk" right after your last class you agreed.

"uh, i'm sorry about last week. i wasn't thinking right." he said. "yea, you weren't" he chuckled at your comment. "i don't like seeing you get hurt by these people when there are plenty of guys who would treat you the right way, and we both know you aren't the problem, you're an amazing person, i just worded it the wrong way. i'm sorry, i missed you a lot this past week." he continued. his apology was genuine, you could tell.

"i accept your apology, but it still stings when the people you're closest to say stuff like that, y'know." you said, "i know, and i'm so sorry. i didn't mean what i said at all, i'll make it up to you, i swear." you nodded.

"jean, were you talking about yourself when you said 'plenty of guys who would treat you right'." you asked.

"... i mean, i know i'm not the nicest person but if you give me a chance, i swear i'll be the best. it's totally fine if you don't want to either, i don't want to pressure you, especially after what i said last week." he smiled.

"take me on a date and then i'll decide, lover boy."

"deal." he was gonna make it up to you no matter what.
