It just flows off the tongue better. It just flows! And it has this whimsical aspect to it, which I think reflects them nicely!

I think there's so much potential for the three of them. SO imma write a fanfiction about Picky and Tracy, and Pipi! Here's why!

I think Picky has the ability to do great things, he already did that with helping Ness against a Starman! Both of them were practically powerless but that didn't stop either of them from wrecking the alien/bot with the help of buzz buzz. So that's potential part 1 - the courage he has/ gains and willingly applies.

I also think I could explore a scenario where abuse and power discovery come together; this one idea I've always thought about: Lardina does slap Buzz buzz to the ground, but I could also narrate that he wasn't fully dead yet but was just (reasonably) dramatic from being slammed down hard, he was dying though. Or he wasn't but was heavily injured

Either way, we know that in the game Lardina Minch mentions how her sons aren't punished enough (at least in the English version) so I thought of an idea where she makes Picky eat buzz buzz in a near future breakfast, he has to eat it or else she'll punish him a different way. So he regrettably does and gains defensive magic + whatever other magic Buzz Buzz had.

His association with his family and brother brings connections to things he himself may not have had if it weren't for that. Drama as well. There's a lot of great seasonings to add to this meal.

For Tracy, she is Ness's younger sister. She has her own version of creativity , resourcefulness, and drive similar to him. I'd love to explore what she pulls off in the scenarios I have for her.

And Pipj? Oh my God pipi... I have this amazing headcanon, but I need to explore it through a story versus telling it here. I feel like it's such a good head Cannon that I don't want to just tell it to anyone!

In case anyone is confused yes I'm going to write fanfictions about them. Absolutely!!

And honerable mention to Orange Kid! Also great potential

A peterpan fanfiction: I have the story idea where captain hook comes to his senses and works on leaving Neverland with his comrades. Turns out, aged up peter pan does NOT want that. The pirates made his eternal life very entertaining for a long time, leaving would make his very long life very boring very fast.

He manipulates and enforces the lost boys to help him keep the pirates from leaving. Some psychological and scary shit is cooking here. One of the focused lost boys, named Andrew, is explored as he learns that his reality is not what it seems. He's been kidnapped and brainwashed.

There's more cool stuff to it, but I thought it was a cool exploration of characters, and would be inspired by the original Peter Pan if I did it correctly.

(this is a copy + paste from another thread I made. I'll add a tldr at the end)

PLEASE DON'T BE SARCASTIC/ CURT I'M ALREADY DOWN.

Thank you for your answer! Yeah, Sometimes I wonder if I'm just being naive because I try to talk to this particular person (my Nigerian father who is 74) about something but I don't always go full volume of the situation. I started thinking that there's a time and place for the conversation because my dad may be in the middle of doing something so they may request another time or they dismiss it.

Then another time, I was able to sit them outside and talk about a topic more but they were dismissive about it then. I didn't really know what to say, I had no index card to stay on topic either, so maybe they felt I didn't know what I was saying and decided this conversation was going nowehere.

Now I am thinking if I set out the time, they know what kind of conversation it is going to be about, and I have a structured articulated voice telling them everything without sounding lost, they can receive it more properly. want to believe that they can change.

But yes they have to want to change, and If I do all of of that and they still won't change then yeah they won't change. But I don't think it's because they're older like you're saying (if I'm correct here), I think it's because they just don't want to change, they have a stubborn mentality that I am unable to shake (as how I am or alone)

because I have a mother who was around that age (65) and tries. She really tries. I just had a conversation with her about something and she heard me out and understood where I was coming from. And she's always tried. And it's a lot easier talking to her and of course I try to remind her that I love her and I care about her and I want us to work together on whatever problem that may arise like my last conversation. Growing up more come to really appreciate my mom more.

Sorry if this was too much information I'm just. I'm just sad that my dad isn't willing to hear something that's really important to me, especially because he cheated. (The photo evidence we have seen strongly suggests that, it was confirmed with two other people so it wasn't just out of my assumptions)

I've spoken to two-three therapists about this, could never afford it long term to keep it going so I spoke to several people through warm lines. As you imagine there's only so much support/advice they can give on something like that, but it was better than nothing at all.

I will admit I think if I kept up with a therapist I might be a lot better. I am planning to find another one because I've been having a lot of flashbacks of how my dad mistreated me personally (can't compare to how others may have been mistreated by their fathers/mothers)

TLDR: 74 year old Nigerian father says and does things that are not always the right or civil thing to do, he's also cheated and that was verified by 3 people. I want to have a better relationship with him and explain that I have negative feelings directed at him that I struggle to dismiss and stop daily, while explaining why in full detail. I wonder if this is the right thing to do and I wonder if I am naive for thinking he may want to change.

Yes I have moved out. I am hundreds of miles away from them.

Yes I have went to therapy for this 2-3 times, I couldn't always afford it so I relied on warm lines and hot lines (which does provide as much thorough therapy/advice as a paid service, if you've ever used them I'm sure you understand what I mean, even so they do their best within their scope of practice)

Yes I am going to get therapy again, I do believe that if I consistently go to an affordable therapist I can get better. But I really have to find the right therapist. Because there are some therapists who are just not for me.

My father is a Nigerian man, and for those of you who know that is someone who can be very misogynistic yet not fulfill their duties, emotionally unavailable, accountability avoidant, but they are quick to remind you that they are the leader or the man of the house but not really demonstrate that. And then they will use either threats, acts of violence, or quote the Bible incorrectly to protect what they've always done/known.

I've went to therapy, I've used warm lines, I've talked to family about this person and I'm still angry and upset with how I was personally treated over the years.

Today I wanted to call him and let him know that every day I struggle to hate him and why.

My dad has also been going to Nigeria and hanging out with another woman. We have a few photos of him and this woman doing very suggestive things, all of us had agreed that this definitely isn't normal family interaction and was there for cheating.

So not only can he not handle difficult conversations properly, he's also fucked off somewhere to be with someone else.

From what my mother has told me (so he hasn't really been able to defend himself in this case, just letting you know) he has made her pay for a lot of things, and avoids financial support when it matters according to my mother.

I don't know how true this all is but I've also experienced his avoidance for financial Providence beyond the basics and I don't know if that's him just trying to teach us that we need to remind ourselves or him just not doing his whole duties as a father.

There's some other things here and there and while he may not be the worst compared to other fathers out there, there's been this anger within me for years that I struggle to cope with no matter how many therapies or warm lines or people I talk to you about this. I'm at the end of my rope

What should I do? Yes I've already moved out. I'm over a thousand miles away from these people.

This was how I discovered I was major part of a problem that for months/years I was firm that I was the victim to. I did this long ago when I was 5 accidentally, then the idea was reminded to me through diary of a wimpy kid.

You can make a recording, or a video, or write it down, or even make a comic (which is what I did when I was 5 or 6) whatever you gotta do. Just detail everything then give yourself time. This could be a few days, or a few hours, a few minutes, or watever - just be mentally clear or calmer.

For me, I played the recording back after a couple of minutes to realize I was the entitled jerk. When I was five, I journalled about being angry for getting clothes/socks for christmas. Years later when I was 8? 10? I found the comic and realized I was a huge brat! haha.

The ingredients I used:

. 2 tbsp of olive oil,

. Cooked some cinnamon and curry in there first, then added the Diced onion, celery, and bell pepper (green, red, and orange) for sautee

. Added tyme, a little rosemary, a can of diced tomatoes with jalapeno pepper in it, a little water, three cans of washed chickpeas, some oregano, two bay leaf

. I added a orange habanero pepper, sliced in two, then took it out

I added a squirt of ketchup (like a tbsp) thinking that would help

I'm trying to go for a slightly sweet but savory should be Curry.

. I don't have ginger on hand or milk or yogurt, I don't have jerk seasoning

Any ideas? I'm sorry if my culinary skill was an offense 😭

Everything is okay, just found it hilarious. I came back from Costco and went to what I thought was my car. My car unlocks the moment I open the door handle because I have my key within it's radius.

I opened this car and noticed how much more classy it looked inside and immediately closed that door.

Some of you might wonder why I did not lock that door. It was in the heat of the moment! I was too busy surprised at knowing this was not my car and any possible legal ramifications I could get if I did anything further than just close the door and walk away. I also did not know their life situation (whether or not that sounds like a stretch) they might do it this way because of any reason. Their car was pretty clean (from what I glanced at) nothing to steal.

I made a short little recording both out of humor of the situation to send friends, and to protect myself! (although I don't think that will be necessary.)

While making the recording a second time (because I was being a little perfectionist) the owners of the car had arrived. They were an older couple (although anyone could do this. There was one time this woman around my age had entered the back of my car thinking it was her friends and was mortified when she saw me staring back at her before leaving the car. Bless her heart, accidents happen! And it's not her fault, it's mine for not locking my car! It's kind of why I don't like my current car right now because as soon as you park it unlocks without you manually doing that. Yes, I strive to lock my car as soon as I enter. I'm not trying to be one of those protagonists in those kidnapping movies.)

But yeah. No harm no foul. Everything ended up being okay and it was just funny and interesting that it happened. I'm sorry if my narriration is weird or excessive, I was trying to be transparent and cover any potential questions 😊.

TLDR: opened someone else's car that wasn't mine.

1. Whatever your excess body fat turns into, that's what it is, it's no longer your excess body fat. When you're done with it it can either convert back into your excess body fat, or you can sell it / get rid of it.

2. I'm a hundred pounds overweight. So I have a lot of weapons and equipment to consider.

3. This is for shits and giggles. So answer if you want to.

I'm wondering if I'm over-checking my instruments as I assemble, because we still need to be productive. But I don't want to check too little. I want to ensure quality over quantity just like the next guy, so I'm asking you guys who are both fast and ensure quality, how do you check your instruments? How do you not overthink it?

Thanks
