You know them, you love them, you better! Introducing Team Fortress’s very own, The Gliders! Yes you heard that right, this year our red friend comes back with a vengeance, and joined by his mysterious Blu counterpart! Representing the Special Forces, the Glider brothers are going all out, it’s employment or bust this year, and even I coward in terror at the thought of what will happen if they lose. Fly high boys! If you know what’s good for ya, vote for your favorite sugar gliders today!
And of course for our newer mercs and voters, meet the Gliders!
It's a bird! It's a plane! It's a depressed middle-aged Italian man with a flight suit! The Red Glider swoops into the fight, dragging you with him via his grappling hook. Our Aviator takes a new approach to our gravel field; with his one-of-a-kind “Gliding Suit” and endless supply of ariel ammo, he’s a menace from a never before seen angle in Team Fortress 2. Above..
He's a bit outta his gourd, spending most of your life isolated in a forest studying "Italy's Shame," Leonardo Da Vinci will do that to you. But no worries! His good cooking and friendly-ish attitude will do more than enough to get you to look past his fre- OCCASIONAL!! Grazie tante! -"mad scientist" outbursts. About planes. Freak. Just whatever you do, DO NOT call it a “Flight Suit.” There’s a difference. He’s not called “The Flyer,” for pete sakes.
Watch high and low, but mainly high, the Blu Glider’s attacks are silent and swift, an efficient killer, he uses his deadly talons to tear into prey whole! Swallowing the rest and regurgitating it hours later as a pellet!.. no that’s an owl, but his keen senses and vast knowledge, (in the field of gliding,) sure do remind you of one! And the killing! He’s really good at that!
The Blu Glider is a man of many talents, and could well rule the world if he so chooses, but our fiercely determined friend has only one thing on his mind, something he needs resources only provided by Mann Co. to accomplish. Will this be his in? Will he complete his life’s mission? Will his brother ever remember to pick up his screws he needs? Stick around to see all these questions and more answered as the story of Team Fortress: SPECIAL FORTRESS unravels!

Self-proclaimed world renowned swordsman, and BLU's top-of-the-class in decapitations. With her Splendid Screen and Half-Zatoichi she charges into battle seeking only glory and thrill in bloodshed. Though he's born to kill, he likes his fair share of books off-duty, particularly of the Greek Mythos variety. And although she's not one to bicker, she might hold disdain for you in the case that you beat her at her own game… Challenge her to a one-on-one sword duel if you dare!

GASTERR idk if uve talked about it but wat would pepperman and pizzaheads dynamic be like... if they wre both with jesteroni at the same time. ^_^ im just couriousss
HI EMMET!! thanks for the question!! no, i haven't talked about this before
honestly, i haven't really thought too hard about it (because i'm not much of an ideas person) but i feel like pizzahead would be pretty chill about pepperman and jesteroni !! alternatively, he could find it endearing or even amusing that his little jaybird has been twitterpated by the pepper 🤭 though, i kinda don't see pepperman being as easygoing about it... not at first, anyway.
i dunno, i'm a simple guy... i just like to think about them both cuddling jesteroni sometimes 😊
sorry this doesn't really answer your question in a satisfying way :P
in terms of that one post from you i reblogged god youre so fucking right he jsut. little freak who only started allowing himself to feel safe caring about others once he got a job in a battlefield is like. honestly he'd probably be like this regardless but he just is so playful around the whole team and just adores the idea of blood and dissection as a form of exploring trust and intimacy. like how do you get closer to someone than being under their skin you know. and like you said it doesnt even have to be a romantic thing it's just a fun way for best pals to hang out. i bet if he trusted someone enough he'd let them perform on him

25. common fandom complaint that you're sick of hearing
the message of vanilla rain world isnt "go kill yourself". it really isnt. i havent seen this one much nowadays but i still see it and i have seen it. the point of rain world isnt to make it to the end. its to enjoy the journey as you're having it because it was crafted to be strictly unique, with how enemies behave like real creatures and all. personally i dont even think ascension = death but it's ambiguous in canon and i very much understand how someone comes away with that conclusion. my conclusion is a bit different because im unhinged
rain world is about perseverance and determination and exploration and enjoying yourself while you're here. a lot of people see the ends of games as what it's trying to tell you but. dont forget that rain world itself is an experimental game and doesn't follow typical story structure. all of the main story already happened. you live in the aftermath of it all. you are a little creature trying to survive. enjoy yourself to your fullest. rain world only ends when you say it ends
