" You open your eyes and your vision went dark."
Yeah, it must have been terrifying to wake up blind, though I did find interesting how he thought about this whole event after.
" Just like Icarus who flew too close to the sun, I think this is my punishment for trying to help everyone."
I don't remember if that was the exact phrase he used, but... seeing it as a punishment or reminder is an interesting thought process.
Lina: " Agatha... "
Agatha: " Lina, I..."
Lina: " Is this Gabriel's body? What did you do to him?!"
Agatha: " I didn't want to! I had, I had to..."
Lina: " I believed in you! I was on your side, even with all of them calling you a monster... but in the end that's all you are, Agatha. "
Agatha: " I just wanted to help ..."
Lina: " Help? Help me?! Then why did you leave me there?!"
Gabriel: " This is all your fault..."
Parasite of guilt maybe? still, what a nightmare.
A puppet of fate.
Hah, oh wow, certainly taught a lesson to these two nuisances, heh.
Huh, Jax started acting oddly after this, he did act like his usual self at the beginning of the episode, but this drained him, he definitely doesn't seem to like being trapped, he seemed more eager for the adventure to be over, started acting more... normal, in a sense, still annoyed but more normal, like he just wanted to get out of there as soon as possible.
Wonder why it was specifically being trapped in a dark room that seemed to make this happen.
It was the first time I think that he seemed genuinely afraid/uncomfortable.
Even Pomni noticed the difference in his demeanor in that conversation they had, finding it odd.
Would I eat this pokemon?
Decided to make this based on a video I saw that talked which pokemon are edible or not, the title is self explanatory, might make more of these in the future.
Starting with the Kanto starters, first is Bulbasaur.
Eh... it is Poison type so no, I'd rather not eat a poisonous plant, it is a frog as well, but I'm guessing it is like those poison dart frogs, it probably isn't edible.
Squirtle... they do say turtle meat tastes good, so maybe, I'd feel bad though since it is probably endangered, poor turtle.
Charmander... it is a lizard so it very likely is edible, so sure, I'd be willing to give it a try.
That's it for now, I'd love to hear what you guys think.
Shhh...
Tried to draw Jae from Macabre Christmas, I still need some practice drawing hands, it's supposed to be a shooshing gesture, but I tried my best.
Need some practice in general, not my best drawing but trying new things.

The art commission scam.
Are you an artist? Were you DM'd, sent an ask by a blog with no posts or little to no content, or had a comment on a post asking about a commission and to DM them? Did they ask you to draw their son, daughter, or pet? Did hey offer you $200-$500? If so, you should learn about this scam and how to avoid it.
The sugar baby/daddy scam. / Free money scam.
Did you make a post asking for donations? Did someone DM you wanting you to be their sugar baby or promising you money in exchange for something? Did they tell you that you need to send them money to verify you want to 'do this' or pay for 'shipping' or 'transaction' fees? You're about to get scammed!
The muse scam.
If you post photographs frequently, you may find your posts receiving comments from 'artists' saying how 'inspired' they are and how eager they are to make art or a mural for your work. This is a fake cheque scam and you should avoid it at all costs!
The (read more) / Click here! scam.
If you see a post ending in a link that says (read more...) or Click here! This is an attempt to get you to click a link that will lead to a malicious website in an attempt to steal your information, or possibly even install malicious files onto your phone or computer.
is Now Hiring! Scams. ✨New(ish)✨
See a post like this on your dash or in a tag you frequent? Was the user once a normal user and now they're spamming ads like this in unrelated tags? This likely means that user got their account hijacked by clicking the link via a different post. Avoid clicking links like these at all costs!
HRT Medicine / Therapy services ✨New(ish)✨
This scam is targeting transgender people, and is likely stealing peoples personal information and likely their credit card information. If you see or find a blog like the above commenting on your posts, in #transgender or other such related tags, block and report them immediately. (Selling stuff like this is illegal btw.)
Recovery Scammers.
If you make a post talking about how you've lost money, be it bitcoin, crypto, or were scammed in any sort of way, you may find yourself receiving an ask from a recovery scammer. These are people claiming they can offer 'recovery services' while claiming to be 'ethical hackers' that have 'back end knowledge' to online services. Claiming they can retrieve your money, account, photos, and other such lost items. All you have to do is give them your account information and some money! :) (Do not do this, obviously.)
These scammers also target people who post in #scam and/or other related tags like #scams or #scam alert, posting things like this in the comments on peoples posts:
Dropshipping Websites. (Curtsy of @ai-art-thieves)
See a post of an object or a piece of clothing by a popular tumblr user that has 10k+ notes, does it say 'I got this here!' or '>>GET YOURS HERE<<' at the bottom with a link to a store? That user is a part of a dropshipping advertising scheme and are being paid to advertise these scummy websites. These websites are usually malicious in the manner that they sell cheaply products. In the worst case you'll get a bootleg or flawed product, or even a different product completely, or in even worse cases, you'll never get it at all.
(Or they will steal your information in the case of those shopify websites that popup online with deals you 'just can't refuse!!!' So buyer beware.)
Campaign boost/mutual aid support scams. (By @kyra45)
If you or anyone you know has posted looking for donations, and you receive an ask, DM, or even a comment about someone offering to 'assist you in boosting your account/campaign,' all you have to do is pay them <amount>, then this is a fake check scam you should definitely read up on and learn about to avoid.
Pet donation Scams. (by @kyra45)
See a post about someone needing help with a vet bill? Do they stress the pet is in peril and will die soon? Is their PayPal from the Philippines yet the vet bill is from the United states? Those are just two things to look out for with this scam.
Donation / Mutual Aid scams. (by @kyra45)
One of the most common and well known scams on tumblr to this day. These scams mainly revolve around brand new accounts made within a day or week reblogging very few posts and then suddenly asking for money via donations through PayPal. These blogs will send out the same copy/paste ask en masse to dozens if not hundreds of people, change their name frequently over the course of days if not weeks, and will even lie about being Palestinian, stealing stories from legitimate gofundmes, and even having conditions such as diabetes while not even knowing how it works.
Here is a current list of documented PayPal scammers: Part 3

I also have a very extensive list of scammer call out posts on my main blog, @slenbee under my #scam tag which can be found here if anyone's interested in scrolling through it. Just note that I kindly ask that minors do not follow that blog as it is my personal blog and is not a blog dedicated to scam busting/documenting.
You're 100% ok with looking through the scam tag and reblogging things from it, as well as checking out the links on my pinned post. :)

Take care everyone and don't get scammed!

Scammers pretending to be Palestinian v6 by @kyra45
I haven't purchased a HP item in close to a decade - I use the books I already had as doorstops or to prop a laptop up for meetings nowadays.
There is NO "death of the author" with JK Rowling - she controls and continues to profit from her IP, and uses that money to fund hate groups.
This one is for my Brazilian folks
Jae from natal macabro
Gal: Can't trust anyone in this house anymore. ):
Heh, well, with what happened so far, accurate.
To be honest, I'd think the same way as T-Bag did about Kian if I were on his team, if he can just throw his closest ally away just like that, betraying him, is never there often for his team... what reason would I have to trust him? What guarantees that he wouldn't just use me as well? Or that his plan would work for that matter, I'd definitely have some doubts.
Clearly he only cares for his own goals, so Indeed, Kian sucks.
