Look! A Rascal!
At one point in Bravely Second, you fight an evil baker. Most of his moves involve quickly whipping up a poisoned cake and throwing it into your face.
Prior to the fight, Tiz ate a tart that Evil Baker had made. Tiz rhapsodised about how delicious the tart was and then turned into a ghost. He didn't die, note. He just turned into a ghost. We cured him of his ghosthood by throwing a bucket of hot water over him.
VIDEOGAMES.
Last night, I dreamt that the Frye twins of Assassin's Creed: Syndicate were the protagonists of Supernatural, rather than the Winchester brothers. I sort of feel this crossover needs to exist. One night, Evie hears someone moving around in the home she shares with Henry. She goes to accost the intruder; it's Jacob; she goes 'what on Earth are you doing in India?'; he goes 'EVIE COME AND FIGHT GHOSTS WITH ME :D'.
Frederick Abberline plays the role of the well-meaning police officer who’s pursuing the Frye twins, having concluded, entirely reasonably, that they’re responsible for the mysterious killings that crop up wherever they go. (Possibly having concluded entirely correctly. I'm not sure whether the Fryes are still assassins in this universe.) Jacob likes to tease him by leaving little notes and clues behind. Possibly the notes end up becoming oddly flirty.
Poor Abberline. He’s anxious enough as it is without a serial killer developing a weird fondness for him.
On an entirely different note, here is an extraordinary WikiHow article: How to Pretend to Have Ice Powers. Some of my favourite lines:
This article will help you convince others that you have ice powers.
Have some winter jewelry like snowflake charms or other wintry patterns. You can wear necklaces, earrings, rings, bracelets, bows, or anything else that strikes your fancy - but take it easy; don't wear all these things at the same time or you'll look like you're trying too hard and people will be suspicious.
If you don't have blue eyes, get blue eye contacts. Every person with ice powers has blue eyes. They should be bright blue or ice blue, and if possible, they should have a snowflake pattern in the iris to be even more believable.
Wear summer clothes in the winter. If you do, it'll look like the snow or cold doesn't affect you, which is true of people with ice powers. Just make sure you're not shivering all the time - then, people will notice.
Pay attention to wintry topics in others' conversations. Act aware whenever you hear someone say "winter" or "snow" or something like that.
Whenever you watch a movie where someone has ice powers, take a small glance at your hands for a second.
So now you know! Use your new ice powers responsibly, guys.

I would so read that fic!
Ooh, I think I could pull off the ice powers things! I have blue eyes, I think? (People disagree about the color, but my mom says they're really pale blue.) And I have a high tolerance for cold, so I tend to wear insufficiently wintery clothes. So I'm a couple of quirks and a snowflake ring away from making people think I have ice powers?

I'm convinced you have ice powers just from this comment.

Now I can disappear into the aether for the next four years until I come to check on you again.

I'm planning to be here for as long as I have things to say about assorted works of fiction, i.e. quite a while, even if the general sense of shouting into the void means I don't update as much as I used to. It's good to know that keeping to the same place means old friends might look in occasionally!

I do have that problem, hopping from social media platform to social media platform is real hell on trying to actually keep up with people. Now that I have a Real People Job (it's... it's just a 9 - 5) I don't have much time to browse tumblr, and obviously I've been away from LJ for years, so I've lost touch with a lot of friends.
Promise me you won't disappear forever. Promise meeee /shakes fist
