Blue Exorcist: All Night Arc Countdown Posters

welcome backk hehe 💕💕💕🎶

thanks <3

I went to the small pizzeria in a nearby village last month and asked for a calzone, and when she brought it to me the owner had a look on her face I can only describe as bitter.

Naturally my first assumption was that she was judging me for my food order (maybe calzones are too easy compared to other pizzas and she felt under-challenged as a pizza chef?), but then I looked at my calzone and the more I looked at it, the more I felt like it might have been a failed attempt at a cat calzone.

(I didn't ask for a cat calzone, just a calzone.)

If I had immediately identified it as a cat calzone I would have of course said something about it, such as "Aww that's so cute! You made it in the shape of a cat!! Thank you!" — but it was too late. I hesitated too long, and it was just failed enough that I wasn't sure it was meant to be a cat.

I think this poor woman knew her cat calzone was a failure and I wouldn't be able to recognise her effort for what it was, hence the bitterness in her eyes when she brought it to me.

I asked my friend if my pizza looked like a cat to her, and she said "Are you saying this because of the olives? I think they were just placed randomly."

no, I think they were meant to be eyes, and a cat nose. And those are the ears. Wait, I'll turn it in your direction so you can see

Friend: "It's just a pointy calzone... Maybe you should ask the chef if she meant to make it a cat?"

If I tried to make a cat calzone and the recipient of this gift went like 'hey, sorry, is this weird-looking thing meant to be cat?' I would sell my pizza restaurant and drown myself in the river.

After considering this, my friend said we could brainstorm a better phrasing—but then we ended up agreeing that since the chef didn't go 'haha sorry I tried to make a cat and failed!!' when she brought my pizza, the options were a) she didn't try to make a cat; b) she feels humiliated by her failure, and either way it's better to say nothing.

But I felt deeply curious about this unresolved mystery, so this week when I went back to the pizzeria I asked for a calzone again.

The options were now: a) the chef brings me a better, recognisable cat calzone and I immediately remark upon it and she's happy and we erase the failed cat calzone from the historical record and never mention it ever;

or b) the chef brings me a normal calzone, which suggests that the vague cat shape from last time was accidental and just another instance of chronic cat pareidolia.

(I refused to consider option c) The chef brings me another failed, hardly-recognisable cat. She just doesn't seem like the kind of person who would let that happen to her twice.)

Here's the photo of the failed cat calzone from last time, which, according to my friend, just looks like a pointy calzone with randomly-placed olives and not a deliberate attempt to make a cat:

And here's what the chef brought me this time:

THAT'S A CAT.

I knew it!!!!

And it looks so sad!! This cat calzone looks like it will burst into olive oil tears if you once again fail to identify it as the cat that it is

But I didn't; I was so ready this time. I went "A cat!!!!! It's so cute!" and the chef went like yes!!! I tried to make one last time but it looked weird :(

I said I was pretty sure it was a cat last time and apologised for not bringing it up and she said no, it's my responsibility to make it a decent cat. She also said she was glad I'd come back and ordered another calzone because she was really bothered ("vraiment embêtée") by that first failed attempt, and wondering if I'd noticed an attempt was made (and failed)

That's so relatable. It's like when you make a really embarrassing spelling mistake in a text and you're not sure if the other person has seen it and is judging you for it. Should you bring it up? Can it go unnoticed if you don't? It's the cat calzone equivalent of that. I'm so glad we were able to clear the air.

いまに、ここから出ても、自分はやっぱり狂人、 いや、癈人という刻印を額に打たれる事でしょう。

It's that time of year when it's time to turn into a sap for two minutes and give my heartful thanks for all the things that have gone right this year. Man, what a time - what a year! It's gone by so quickly, but let me take a moment to reflect and share what I'm thankful for. :)

Back in April, when I finally actively started using Tumblr (I had made the account previously but never used it, so congratulations to my three years on Tumblr, I guess? lol ^^;), I didn't think I would make friends through it. I thought I would occasionally post something about BSD and call it a day. Maybe only post fic updates because Kitten Era was in the works, and I didn't think I would have much interaction with anyone.

And then, with all my shitposting and talking into the void, I came upon a very special friend, @anticidic. I'm thankful for you because you have challenged my writing and turned my crack into genuine fics (honestly, it still sends), and you're a great source of inspiration when I need it. I've also turned into a bit of a gremlin since then... so I apologize. We've shared lots of laughs and giggles since we've met. I'm happy to have met you and be your friend.

My next big thanks go to @k-aez for the Discord server. I thought branching out and talking to others with similar interests would be fun (didn't want to only talk Rosie's ears off), and it was like entering a humble little home with other BSD artists and writers. It's been such a blast and a wonderful time getting to be a part of such a wonderful group of people! I also really like the way you say boar... it sounds nice, hehe.

My next big thanks go to @iwantmochisoup for being a wonderful friend and making all the lovely catzai art that fuels my inspiration, hehe. Besides your art, I'm happy to have met you, haunted ghosts, and talked BSD with you. You've become super brave, and I'm super proud of you!

I also want to thank @msshinylemon @spccts @nevertheblood for sprint writing with me on days when I felt I had no motivation. Catching you guys sprinting motivates me to get my thoughts together, and I love it when we give each other little pats on the backs for even the one sentence we manage to crank out some days, lol! The life of a writer, am I right?

I also want to thank my AO3 readers. I never expected anyone to enjoy the silly things I put out or the writing that I did, and honestly, I might have stopped after KE was done, and ghosted like I was never there. And then WIP after WIP later, I'm still here.

To my mooties, you guys rock, and if you are reading this, just know I'm happy that we've interacted before in some way, shape, or form. I wish you all the best and the most filling Thanksgiving ever! I'm thankful for all of you.

So confused. . . and stressed. . .

You can see it in his eyes he needs to chill out

Happy thanksiving for those who celebrate it!

Just a thank you post for all the amazing people I've met this year, I'm so happy to have met you all. <3333

A few months ago I decided to be more active on Tumblr and get out of my comfort zone, hoping I would make a new friend or two. I'm so thankful for the wonderful people I've met since then.

I want to thank @anticidic and @ohhcinnybuns, you two have been such an inspiration for me as a writer and I'm so grateful to have met you both. It's been fun sharing ideas and aus, and just talking in general. Can't wait to see where the Kitsunechuu and catskk aus are heading!

I also want to thank @thatghostinyourbog for all the silly conversations we had and the chaos we made, seeing Soup's and Killeria's reactions whenever they came back. I've enjoyed it so much and I keep laughing whenever I scroll through the hall of shame.

Thank you @k-aez for the discord server, it's been such a blast meeting everyone. Ranting something about soukoku and having others pitch in has been super fun. Also, thank you for the soundboard hehe.

Also, thank you @iwantmochisoup for all the support for my writing and the beautiful art and for encouraging the Alien Stage brain rot and the making of my skk au. The art studies have been so helpful and I'm super happy that I got to meet you. Motivational Dazai beaaaaaaaaam.

I also want to thank @spccts, screaming at each other at 5am has been ridiculously fun, as well as crying as we read side b of The Day I Picked Up Dazai (I will get you back for that one). Cheering you on in your skk au, you've got this!!

Merry Christmas @atsujuni, I was your secret santa ⟡ I wish you all wonderful holidays and a happy new year! ⟡ @bungostraydogs-secret-santa, thank you for the event

HAPPY 11.11 POCKY DAY!!
