[Image Description: A photo of the Monster High doll Vandala Doubloons. She is a ghost pirate doll with a pale green, turquoise, and pale coral color scheme. She has pale green skin and long turquoise hair, and she wears a pale coral-colored pirate hat with a blue pin that depicts a feather, pirate ship, and net. She is wearing a black and grey stripped shaw with red detailing over a blue and green wave-patterned dress. Over her clothes, she wears a coral-colored vest that turn into chains and anchors as it falls down her body. She is holding a giant turquoise anchor on one arm, with the anchor's chain curved so that the anchor looks like a purse. She has one pale coral-colored leg that has been carved to look like a foot with a heel on it at the end. Her other leg matches the pale green of the rest of her body, and she has a greenish heel on that foot. There is a blue accessory brush on the ground next to her, on the left-hand side of the image.

#if this was sent in good faith: my professor either lied or misremembered his story #ive mentioned it several times on this blog and did my best to removed the post to the fullest extent of my abilities #also just as a fyi for people: if you see a post with 100s of 1000s of notes that has been shared across all social media platforms #then OP has heard about and probably addressed whatever you're questioning about it #anon#anonymous#asks#answers #OP has probably heard so much about it that it haunts him in his sleep three years later #one of my facebook mutuals shared it a few months ago #I Know And I'm Sorry It's Not True #Next Time I Will Google Texas Tax Law Instead Of Blindly Trusting My Profs
i—i can’t believe i didn’t realise he’s clearly dressed as percy there wtf. i think i was distracted by the metric fuckton of PANACHE in the rest of that picture (except the top right photo because ngl that looks like it came out of fucking bullingdon) i’m fucking shaking look at this man
Honestly this guy is a bottomless well of interesting information, I’m gonna embarrass myself on this thread. He’s also uncannily good at making crow sounds, and there’s a running joke about him being an immortal being (or possibly a pyramid).
claiming a celebrity is immortal: boring, cliché, we’ve done this a hundred times
claiming a celebrity is a pyramid: funky, fresh, i am fearing for my life
#obsessed with how this post refers to taliesin as 'percy's voice actor' #i mean it's true of course #but also ive never seen that before lmao #and like he did create percy #he very much had a bigger hand in percy's creation than many vas have but i get not knowing that if u came in via the show #taliesin jaffe #percy de rolo #percival fredrickstein von musel klossowski de rolo iii #cr1 #the legend of vox machina #tlovm#text#undescribed
Did the de rolo flashbacks in the show add anything to your de rolos headcanons?
ive become a fredrick de rolo apologist after seeing that he's a dilf
#he still sucks and johanna still cheated on him its just now i forgive him for sucking 😌 #honestly not really #i think the percy cass flashbacks cemented an idea of their dynamic that i already had #i found that one part where anders was teaching them and only them to be bizarre #i understand that integrating the other 5 sibs would be strange especially in such short tv show eps #and so this was just what made More Sense #but it kind of marks them as having been closer than i generally imagine they were (give they have siblings between them) & #(the age difference they had when the briarwoods ruined their lives and killed their family) #i liked the references to julius' leadership abilities #and that brutal line percy says about how he's going to tear one of the ppl on his list (cant remember which 1) apart for his siblings #anon#anonymous#asks#answers#tlovm #also idk when u sent this but i just now saw it
[ID: Art of Percy de Rolo and Anna Ripley. They are drawn against a dim teal background; their shadows form an amorphous shape on the wall behind them. Percy has his gun in both hands, wearing his long coat, and is looking backwards with a worried expression at Ripley, who is directly behind him. Her left hand curls around and touches his face, with its fingers thin and clawlike; she is smiling and holding up a black gun in her left hand, pointed into the air. The barrel of Percy’s gun has the name “Anna” inscribed on it. End ID.]
Actually what happened to Percy is normal for a bisexual in his early 20s. Full scale demonic possession caused by a burning desire for revenge is actually a one of the most common symptoms of bisexual early 20somethings disease. That’s why college campuses are like that.
#this is true i was a bisexual 20something brimming with a revenge demon until i purged my own recently #also op do u want to join my support group for people whose percy de rolo posts are mistaken for being about other percies #percy de rolo #percival frederickstein von musel klossowski de rolo iii #tlovm #the legend of vox machina #cr1#text
[ID: Eight subtitled gifs in two columns of four, depicting Sylas Briarwood’s death in both Critical Role campaign 1 (the left column) and The Legend of Vox Machina animated show (the right column).
In the first pair of gifs, Matt (playing Delilah) sits behind his DM screen, wearing a red shirt and a dark jacket. Delilah yells “NOOOOOOO! SYLAS!” The corresponding scene in the show is a shot of Delilah lying on the ground, magically silenced, reaching out a hand desperately as she yells “NOOOO!”. The camera zooms out to show Sylas screaming in pain as Grog holds him in the path of Keyleth’s sunbeam.
In the second pair of gifs, Matt narrates “You can see her whole body shaking now at this point. The horror of seeing her husband, the love of her life, disintegrated before her.” The corresponding scene in the show is a gif of Keyleth’s sunbeam fading away. Sylas’s corpse slowly disintegrates to ash in Grog’s arms.
In the third pair of gifs, Matt continues to narrate: “Tears immediately burst down her face, and her hands are shaking as she screams.” The gif from The Legend of Vox Machina shows a close-up on Delilah’s face with the ashen remains of Sylas drifting by. Her eyes well with tears. They overflow, and she raises herself up to her knees and screams with anguish, throwing off Scanlan’s silence effect and sending purple magical energy exploding violently outwards.
In the final pair of gifs, Matt (as Delilah) screams “You can’t! I broke the world for us! No!” In the corresponding show scene, Delilah storms through the door of the ziggurat and magically slams it behind her with one hand. She slumps against the door and says “Sylas. I broke the world for us.”
teenage walmart games??? I’ve been inside walmart maybe 3 times in my life I need an explanation
formal disclaimer: i am not suggesting you do any of these things in a walmart or similar store* even if i admit to having done some of them myself; the employees don't get paid enough to deal with them
-i mentioned in my tags a fictional game of capture the flag. while i think it would be difficult to full-on incorporate nerf guns into this for more than a few minutes irl, i know people play other versions of it in stores sometimes (i have participated on one ocassion & ngl its kind of fun)
-ive personally played hide n seek in walmart more than once (which is a little different than regular hide n seek in my experience, usually the hiding involves moving around a lot)
-walmart has such a wide variety of shit (for those of you who are less familiar, there's a grocery section & a retail section (including electronics, toys, outdoor equipment, home goods, office supplies, furniture). so we also used to play games where we would have a criteria (ex. The Squishiest Thing U Can Find) & everyone would run around in the alotted time to find The Item which best fit it
-there are lots of potential variations off of this. that "three items to freak out the cashier" game everyone always talks about on here & also a quick google search brought up an all-out walmart scavenger hunt & a walmart bingo
-many walmarts used to have a giant "cage" (it was flexible rope) full of those huge plastic bouncy balls. my walmart does not have one anymore. i imagine it's because i (& others) used to yeet the balls out of the cage every time i was there so i could play with them. i havent personally done much more than bounce them while shopping but i have to imagine that people more creative than me have made several games revolving around these balls and their prison
[Image Description: A Walmart bouncy ball cage filled with dozens of giant colorful balls some of which also have pokadot or zigzag patterning. It is taller than the aisles. The balls are mostly contained by roping, but the frame of the cage is made of metal. END ID.]
-idk if this counts as a "game" but when i was a child you could get ear piercings at walmart & it was for sure A Risk
-ive known people who make a game of shoplifting, seeing who can steal what & who can take the most risks without getting into trouble (in my experience folks either know EXACTLY how companies like walmart deal with shoplifters or they don't know jackshit, there is no in-between, my advice is that knowledge is power)
-there are legitimate ways to have fun in some walmarts, ive been to several that have a few (3-5) money-sucking arcade games.
-they also sometimes have fast food places in them, so any kind of havoc you can think of perpetuating at mcdonalds or subway, you can technically do it in a walmart (just a reminder not to terrorize the employees at these places in real life. please. i used to work at a mall subway like i will fight you)
-this is just off the top of my head at 3 am, im sure a group of bored 16 y/os could come up with something really fun
-obviously you can do these things in similar stores but i feel the need to explain the energy of walmarts to those who havent been in them so much. they really do feel like the worst liminal space you can possibly imagine. all the typical social rules and decorum are gone. the rumors about people wearing what they want and doing what they want in walmart are generally very true (yes you see guns on people's backs there in open carry states). the lights are too bright for me in all big stores like that but they reflect off the floors in a way i find particularly blinding. it's also usually crowded unless you're there during work/school hours. recently my walmart went to all self-check, no bags & that made the environment more hostile which i didnt know was possible. if this were a more serious post id explain in detail about why i think walmart gets a bad rep for some classist reasons and why it DESERVES a bad rep for some capitalist ones but since this is funnyman hours im just going to leave it there
-im going to leave off with a question to my walmart-familiar followers: what is the most chaotic thing you've ever witnessed in a walmart?
*except the shoplifting. i always encourage shoplifting
#when i wrote my capture the flag fic #i made an extensive diagram of a local walmart for reference #which included at least one (cant remember if i did it more than once) trip to walmart #wherein i walked around scribbling notes & pics about the layout on my little papers #which is kind of a shady thing to do retrospectively but i was like 17 #anyway#auralieum#asks#answers#not cr#admin speaks#text#walmart #i also want to say like when you live in a small town and you only have a walmart #you just go there bored #like a lot of these things i mentioned personally doing are not a quirky moment from me they're normal for many of the places ive lived

#he waits outside with trinket every time #there’s a bowl of water for trinket and a book for percy and they wait #percy’s reaction when the party comes back is less outwardly exuberant #but it’s very clear by the look in his eye that he too was worried that they’d never come back #he has been inside of a target though #and got lost inside of a costco for seventy-five minutes. #also for what it counts canon percy de rolo hasn’t been inside of a walmart either. (notaficwriter)
#the important thing is that they heckle him every time #like he settles down beside trinket and vex gives him a 'cmon darling it's just walmart' #percy peaks thru the doors & sees the blinding lights #senses the despair of literally everyone inside #and is like dont you think ive been traumatized enough in my life #i like to think keyleth hadnt been in a walmart before she met vox machina #(for different reasons her town growing up didnt have a walmart) #and thus she is the most sympathetic #there like yeah honestly percy has suffered enough #he's really missing out tho he would kill at all the teenage walmart games #i once wrote this fanfic (for a diff fandom) wherein the characters played capture the flag using nerf guns in a walmart for as long as #they could before they were banned #mightve been inspo'd by a tumblr post #anyway percy would dominate at that but alas #percy de rolo #percival frederickstein von musel klossowski de rolo iii #vox machina#cr1#text
ok tho my BEST percy mix-ups are when i mention his attraction to the twins & i get accused of being some weasley incest shipper
#YES THIS HAPPENED FHSHSGSG #PERCY DE ROLO LIKES VEX AND VAX WHO ARE NOT HIS SIBLINGS JFHSGAGSJDJS #admin speaks#text #so to all of you who are like 'i always have to figure out if its de rolo jackson or weasley' ur not alone #maybe there should be a support group
[Image Description: A dark-mode screenshot of tags from @ohyesididnotjustdothat. They read: "# I DON'T CONSUME EITHER MEDIA BUT I LITETALLY READ THROUGH THIS WHOLE POST # AND I WAS TRYING TO THINK WHY I NEVER HEARD ANYONE MENTION THE REVENGE DEMON IN PERCY JACKSON". END ID.]

percy: no im not going to kill you delilah, seeking your death has been destroying me and im not giving into that

#i unironically love it so much when people see my posts about percy de rolo & think im talking abt some other percy #makes me laugh so damn hard #<3#tlovm#tlovm spoilers #the legend of vox machina #the legend of vox machina spoilers #percy jackson#;)#lmaoooo#text#cr1
ok they understandably had to cut some of the funniest parts of the late Briarwoods arc for time in order to focus on. you know. the plot. But I can respect this if only for the absolute comedy gold of:
Yennen: we've sent some of our holy men to check out that spinning magic-nullifying orb
Holy man: *gets full-on spaghettified and liquefied simultaneously*
Yennen: hopefully it's not dangerous
