Houston came to work with us for the first time the other day. At work we listen to a very specific playlist. On this playlist is two versions of The Bad Touch by the Bloodhounds. I watched this man go from pleasantly jamming to "OH GOOD GOD" in .2 seconds.

Joy: I mean this in the most sincere way possible, F in chat.
Clover, bawling: What the fuck is wrong with you?
Joy: This is the only way I know how to express genuine sympathy.
Hey for everyone who sent drawing suggestions to my inbox, I see them and I am working on it :33 thank you!!!
I totally see what you mean! I can see Mephala as being abard, that totally fits with their whole thing. Also with Jyggalag being a paladin. Paladins are usually disciplined and order is their whole thing. And yeah, i can see Boethiah as a rogue, I had based the barbarian idea off of the atmosphere of the cult surrounding Boethiah, with the whole fighter circle and stuffs. I really appreciate this, it was helpful!
Azura: Sorceress/Warlock Boethoah: Barbarian Clavicus Vile: Bard Hermaeus Mora: Wizard Hircine: Druid Jyggalag: Fighter Malacath: Barbarian Mehrunes Dagon: Barbarian Mephala: Monk Meridia: Cleric Molag Bal: Barbarian Namira: Monk Nocturnal: Rogue Peryite: Sanguine: Bard Sheogorath: Sorceror Vaermina: Monk So I’m thinking about making D&D characters for the Daedric Princes. Yay or nay? Feel free to suggest alternate classes. Also, I’m planning on making some for the Divines so feel free to suggest some for them as well.
Honestly not to be traumatized on main but like. Using horror to heal is such a wonderful thing and I wanna talk abt it.
I can really only speak for myself so I'm gonna talk abt my experiences with it.
One of my most helpful coping mechanisms is playing Amnesia: The Dark Descent. Amnesia is known to be one of the scariest and fucked up games of its time, and still renowned as one of the best horror games. It dives into things like torture, manipulation, unrelenting nightmares, and reality itself falling apart due to a simple action. Yet playing this game and indulging in its story and its lore helps both distract and sort of heal from life when particular memories get bad.
I use weirdcore/liminal spaces/The Backrooms to cope with my derealization issues.
I use analog horror and the Trollge to help cope with my paranoia and fear of the unknown.
I use SCP to help with fear of institutions and anamolies otherwise unable to be explained.
I use FNaF to help with terrible memories. In fact, something my brain has taken to doing is defaulting into believing I'm Michael Afton to escape from flashbacks, phantom sensations, and other things that constantly remind me of my past ab//use.
I use slashers like Michael Myers and Mr. Voorhees for fear of people larger than me (which is a lot of people, Im a very small guy) and honestly they help me accept parts of me that I hate.
It sounds terrible on paper but a lot of people can actually relate to a lot of topics in horror. Its sort of a roundabout way to get that trauma and those memories out in the open and get them resolved, even if its temporarily. Because progress is still progress, no matter how miniscule.
Strangely enough, indulging in horror reminds me that I didn't deserve it, its not my fault, and I. Will. Get. Better. I will recover. And I think thats why a lot of people with trauma turn to horror. Because when everything was shitty and when they were scared the most, horror was a proper escape. It helped, and it continues to help.
I think a lot of people use horror as a coping mechanism and I think its something that people who aren't going through the trauma recovery process should be more open-minded about. I always get odd comments about using horror as coping mechanisms and I think people should be more widely accepting of seemingly unorthodox, but healthy, ways to cope. We all cope differently.
So... are we healing our trauma through ARG Horror and Analog Horror nowadays? Take The Walten Files, Local 58, and The Mandela Catalogue, for example.
I think horror has become one of the only safe and consumable space for catharsis: to expose, explore and heal our trauma.
Hey guys, I dont wanna do this but here goes.
My power might be getting shut off soon.
I need money to pay for medical bills.
I need money to be able to register my car when I get it finally.
So please, please order a commission if you can, every little bit helps.
If you want, you can also dm here and we can go over any ideas you have.
Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children and Payday au, cause I say so.
Bain is an Ymbryne. I know they're all women, but hear me out.
Magdeline Magpie, an Ymbryne trained and set out to create a timeloop. Years and years pass, and eventually, Miss Peregrine finds a rather large magpie on her doorstep. The bird tranforms back into a more human shape, and she almost immediately recognizes the Ymbryne.
"Mag-"
"Its Bain, now, thanks."
Fuck off yes I am indulging in trans Bain I am p r o j e c t i n g
So, Bain had left and originaly intended on creating a timeloop, but eventually forgot about it. However, he begins to realize something.
Every person he finds in the Payday gang is a peculiar, and many of them dont even realize it.
Dallas? Incredible reflexes and reaction speed. He always chalked it up to survival instinct.
Wolf tends to find himself in a more canine body on certain days.
Hoxton can carefully orchestrate and manipulate what people see and how they percieve the world around them.
Chains can take more hits than any normal person should.
Joy can easily manipulate technology (similar to Angel from Borderlands 2).
Duke can turn his skin to stone. Many of his teammates don't notice, but that isn't actually a mask.
Dragan has overwhelming strength.
Sokol can withstand insane cold, and even works better in chilly environments.
Clover can see through other people's eyes. She utilizes this during heists to find out where certain guards are, and if her or her teammates are within line-of-sight.
Bonnie can gently nudge the odds of luck in her own favour. Many times this just makes a coin fall a certain way, or make her opponent throw down rock instead of scissors.
Jiro has full on clairvoyance. He can predict other people's moves to a T on a good day.
Houston finds that he can turn on any motor vehicle, even when that vehicle shouldnt ve able to turn on.
Rust oxidizes and corrodes most things he touches.
Jacket is fueled by blood and can speak through any electronic device.
Wick analyzes things much faster than the average human, and could work out a way to actually kill a man with a singular tic tac if he needed to.
Bodhi can breathe underwater, and takes on a variety of more aquatic forms to suit his needs. Need him to sneak in somewhere? Give him a drainage line that connects, he'll be in before you could say "thanks."
Sydney has the ability to sew chaos wherever she goes.
Jimmy is on crack, he's already peculiar. (Seriously though he, the whole "oh I use science to clone" thing in this au is just a cover, he can basically commit mitosis)
Scarface has the ability to "enthrall" people. Not exactly mind control but he can. "Convince". People to work with/for him.
Sangres can breathe fire. Here me out; alcohol boosts the effect. He learned this after trying to show off at a family gathering, and after a few too many sips of tequila, almost set the house on fire.
Aldstone isn't an Ymbryne but he takes the responsibilties of one. He has a generally calming aura, and can very slightly shift memories a little left from center. He's the one who told Bain about the team's peculiarities.
Vlad and Locke aren't peculiar, but both have deep connections with groups in time loops.
So basically, some big bad or problem rolls around, and Miss Peregrine needs every peculiar she can get for help. Of course, she doesnt exactly want to since a lot of them are kids. Eventually, she catches wind of a particularly interesting group of older peculiars, all banded together but existing without a time loop. She arranges for them to meet, assuming they all already know.
A lot of them are surprised, to say the least. Joy, Sangres, Duke, Jimmy, Bodhi, Clover, and Jiro already knew, but the others are quick to deny it.
I imagine Wolf has a moment of "wait that isnt a hallucination?????" when he realizes he can lowkey shapeshift.
Bain steps in, telling the other Ymbrynes to stay away from his crew, purely because he's seen first-hand what happens to peculiars up against hollows and the like, and this crew /is his family/ and he's not letting anything happen to them.
Angst possibilties? Maybe, maybe.
I've been rotating this au like a microwave in my brain for a while and I wanted to share it.
