Hey. Hey. I might be getting myself crucified by an entire small fandom for this but I need the people talking about the Code Lyoko continuation to start getting used to this idea.
XANA WILL be coming back in Season 5
...or at least, there is a 95% chance he will. I've seen some people talking about how they hate the thought of it and will crash out if XANA comes back, and yeah, I would love to be wrong on this and see them go in a different direction. But it is, most likely, not going to happen.
XANA is the core of what Code Lyoko has always been about. He's the main character that makes Code Lyoko what it is instead of something else entirely. He's always been the main conflict, the main issue, the main force pushing the characters to action and growth--it's incredibly unlikely for them to want to seek out Project Carthage's remnants on their own. He is, arguably, the best part of the show (and I say this as someone who absolutely adores the characters). He is what most people remember from 20 years ago. He is more relevant than ever, as an AI imperfectly mitating humanity who can control every electronic device ever.
It's frustrating that Franz Hopper's sacrifice will be negated, yes. The kiddos are gonna have to deal with that and I doubt Aelita's going to have a good time about it.
But, from where I'm standing, it would not BE Code Lyoko without XANA.
Sometimes having an OC is like "this character is an outlet for my insecurity and trauma" and sometimes it's like "this character is an outlet for my love of vampires :)". Sometimes it's both
Sometimes you think it's "this character is an outlet for my love and nothing more :)" and then you look it over later like "shit. product of the deepest depths of my soul again"
One massive, legitimate way to improve as a writer or artist or in any creative endeavor really, is to become absolutely obsessed with something and to allow yourself to be weird about it. Genuinely mean this btw.
Any sci-fi media: the spaceship is a character
Me: OMG THE SPACESHIP IS A CHARACTER

Greatest hits of FIFA cultural exchanges thus far:
Learning about flyovers and pyrotechnics at American games being a thing
Non-americans discovering the size of American football stadiums....for high schools in texas. Also the size of our stadiums in general.
Going to baseball games as a side treat! Lmao.
Non-americans losing their minds over "like, 100 petrol pumps," at buc-ees.
Related: Americans often forget how huge target and Walmart is.
People discovering American BBQ
Non-americans being obsessed with mid American restaurant chains like Golden Corral and Taco Bell
A lot of them really did feel god in this chile's apparently
The rightful obsession with waffle house
New understanding of American Big Drink With Ice supremacy as summer creeps in
Begrudging acceptance of mandatory water breaks during games
Americans realizing we have a Team USA and we are not, in fact, just "hosting our friends" from around the world ā mostly because we won our first match and our team is decent??? Not amazing but not the worst.
Side rant: us women's football team is legendary good and we should care about that more like. Hello???
Admitting Americans are right about air conditioning
Related: the english team did warm ups in Florida RIP, and also the there's a video of the French team just being like fuck the heat, fuck the sun, this is so hot...
Americans who do not normally care about international football but fucking love a sport and cheering so we're just hyping whatever team is nearby, like we see a party and just show up and learn the chant. Like sorry many of us don't know shit about soccer but if we see a bunch of people in viking helmets or kilts or holding a bunch of flags and cheering we're game.
TAILGATING!!!!
I already said this but American yellow school bus is an international celebrity
The Scottish drank Boston dry of beer apparently, like they quadrupled what Boston normally sells for fourth of July weekend. SAM ADAMS HAD TO GET AN EMERGENCY BEER DELIVERY.
Also the English team fans got kicked out of The Londoner pub in Dallas after drinking 5,000 beers and going over max capacity lmao
Free refill drinks, tortilla chips & salsa.
So many non-americans are going to be here for the 4th of July for our 250th anniversary which is going to be great and hilarious
Non-americans discovering ranch as a beloved condiment
Non-americans understanding American obsession with hamburger now
Japan's homebase is in Texas and the cultural differences are frankly great and also the Japanese fans are SO NICE and helped clean up the stadium after a match???
All the short videos with the eagle screech (which I think is actually a hawk but whatever)
Like yeah America's government is literally the Legion of Doom, but we generally aren't that bad. I'm glad the world is seeing the little things that there are to love in America.
(guy who's not getting anything done voice) I need to learn every skill and all information
so embarrassing to watch yourself become obsessed with a character that feels tailor made for you specifically to become obsessed with. feels like i fell into a trap made just for me. like damn they got me. those are all the things i like and go crazy for
Being a writer is wild because one minute youāre convinced youāre a genius and the next youāre googling āsynonyms for walkā like youāve never used language before.
Y'know I've seen vampire Shadow AUs and I've even seen vampire Sonic AUs
I think we need a vampire Surge AU

We helped quite a few guys with Super Strength get into the construction business. I know this one Veterinarian who can speak with animals. Not everyone with superpowers wants to be out there fighting crime or robbing banks. Thatās where our Job Placement Agency comes in.
Sam was really unclear on what was going on. Up to now, things had gone according to plan, butā¦
Super-powers kicked in? Yeah, thatād gone well. Okay, being the Empress Of All Canines wasnāt, like, the best superpower, but sheād always liked dogs. Being able to talk to them and get them to do things was pretty neat.
Create superhero identity? Check. Sheād made a costume, collected up some tough dogs to be her team, and set out to Do Some Good.
Get the attention of the big superheroes? That had⦠well, it had started well. Sheād stopped a few robberies and stuff, and then sheād seen Guarde fighting some bad guys and weighed in andā¦
⦠and two of her dogs had been killed. And it had hurt, and theyād called for her to save them, and she hadnāt been able to. It had all suddenly been so real, and sheād started to cry.
And once it was over, Guarde had dragged her halfway across the city to this shabby old building, and started banging on a door labeled āNO ADMITTANCEā.
Guarde sighed and pressed a cracked button on an old intercom, which looked like it should have stopped working at least twenty years ago. āCome on, I know thereās someone in there,ā she said crossly. āGet your asses out here.ā
Above their heads, a security camera panned down to examine them.
After another minute, the door opened, and a walking stereotype stood there, glaring. She was, like, THE grouchy old office lady, from the old-lady grey curls to the sagging cardigan to the glasses on a chain to the sour expression with a cigarette hanging out of it. Even her voice, when she spoke, sounded exactly like Sam would have guessed it would, hoarse and raspy. āCanāt you read the sign? No admittance. Especially not for your kind.ā She sneered, and took a drag on the cigarette. āGet lost.ā
Guarde pushed Sam forward. āKid needs the Agency.ā

How to modify D&D 5E to play just about anything
Go to a game store
Navigate to the dungeons and dragons section
Turn your head approximately five degrees either to the left or to the right
The books on these shelves are also tabletop roleplaying games. Many of them already have exactly what you're not getting from D&D 5E
In online stores, simply uncheck the "Brand: Dungeons and Dragons" box instead of turning your head approximately five degrees
How are we all feeling about new Ordis voice btw?
Mike absolutely deserves his retirement but to me the new voice is kind of...emotionally flat and lifeless, especially compared to the old one. Maybe it's just a matter of "new thing ew" and I have to get used to it, or it's early performance weirdness, I just don't think I like it very much from what little we heard
Today I bring you the bomb-loving brothers
Man, I finally finished this thing, aa
(Didn't I already mention that I love Tails n Nine as brothers? No? Well, I do.)
liking a ship but disliking the distinct set of stock fanon that they have been assigned is like one of those punishments dante came up with when he wrote the worldbuilding for hell in inferno

idk if this is controversial or not, but I really like when non-professional writing like fic has hints of author bleedthrough when it comes to like, what different people assume is common knowledge. Like sometimes Iāll be reading a fic and itāll just be obvious that the person writing it is either obsessed with medicine or has been to medical school, because theyāll use terms that are just a shade too technical without explaining them. Itās never the super specific stuff that theyād know other people are unaware of, itās always the things that once youāve known it for a while you forget itās niche knowledge. Itās fun because as a fanfic reader it reminds me of how this is a fun hobby community, where everyone has their own thing going on outside of fandom. Everyoneās got their own specialties and they canāt help but write that into their work sometimes
ā¦well this post sure took off
new ask game; what do you think my hobby, skillset or knowledge or any other details of me based off my writing
still caring about internet friends you lost touch with years ago is so embarrassing. yeah i had a deam we met up irl recently. the last time we spoke was maybe 7-8 years ago. i still wear the laces we randomly decided was a sign of our friendship. i dont know what any of your socials are or if youre even active on any. sometimes i see someones art resemble yours and i wonder for hours. do you still go by that name you chose? whenever i see it i wonder if its you. we couldve passed each other in this vastness a thousand times and not have a clue.
we were lonely kids having fun together. do you remember?
