part 353 whalers on the moon

[aphanon_meme]

We've been here over a year now! I can hardly believe it! Dreamwidth's been pretty good, I'd say, with almost no downtime to speak of and all that! Anyway... how is your spring going? Or I guess it's almost summer, isn't it? Hopefully it's been well! I've been catching up on work and new movies, all very exciting stuff, I'm sure.

Enjoy part 353!

Yeah, that's not something I will forget either. Damn. 5-0 against Spain and now 7-0 against Brasil, Italy not even making it beyond group stage...This really is a weird WC. I suppose it's something that happens when a change of generation and type of play is in order but it's so weird to watch.

That'd be even better. If Netherlands beats Argentina they'll have to face Brazil and then Brazil can beat them themselves.

/pets our Brazilian namefag

Every goal Neuer stops and every extra goal the German players score looks that much better on their record.

It's like their version of going for the A+ instead of a B.

Hey, at least they scored at last.....

[(Anonymous)]

And you've made my day

I'll be thinking about this and laughing when I go

(I haven't seen any clowns but there's all sorts of wacky performers there)

[(Anonymous)]

or a neuer

[romanon]

well, they did concede the consolation goal, it seems

but holy shit

[(Anonymous)]

So, um

Congrats, Germany

[(Anonymous)]

I really hope they do because omg, Germany-Netherlands AND Argentina-Brazil game? Two of the biggest rivalries in the football world right there.

[(Anonymous)]

im from brazil and everyone on my twitter feed and whatsapp groups are just laughing and making jokes about it. we sorta knew we were gonna lose all along and ppl prefered to take it with a smile... the ones who payed thousands of dollars to watch the game are probably the saddest rn

...The trade here is poor, I have nothing to give but meat. And I believe it was you who extended the invitation, sapling, so it will be you who accompanies me. [sapling because you are all lithe and shit but scraaaaaaaaaaaaaawwnyy. And do remember this piece of eyecandy is your super old father and do keep your fantasies within acceptable limits]

Perhaps consider lighter study, son. [because that was disastrous]

I said there are mischievous Gods afoot leading Gilbert and the grey faced to folly. An offering will incline them to feast and distract them from their play.

we made the honor goal and thats what matters

[(Anonymous)]

gonna be cheering for germany now bc OBVIOUSLY we lost to the world champions

[romanon]

nnnnngh I'd watch that I'd watch the hell out of that

[Ah...don't we all, father, don't we all. AND HEY. Transfixed in horror. You look like Pyramid Head or something.]

V-Vater, please refrain from taking raw meat into a restaurant, you will upset the chef- what?! [oh my god shut up. WHAT HAS HE DONE TO HIMSELF...UUGGHHH...FINE, but he's forcing Julchen to come too] Very well- but no meat, I insist, I will...pay... [sobbing inside]

Well- this is about plants, for goodness' sake, not goats. Hmph. [TAKES IT. Thank you for the bloody thumbprints.] ...Ah. You want to serve fresh goat to the gods. Yes. Indeed.

[god.]

And this will cure the place of stupidity. Of course.

[romanon]

Germans don't have another version of themselves tho

if this was Italy we would all have gone to shower after the third goal

[(Anonymous)]

That's not what I was saying.

I meant that like a driven student would always go for the A+ instead of a B, Germany always does the best they can do on the field.

[romanon]

OH SHIT I'VE JUST REALIZED

Italy is the team with the most World Cups (4) after Brasil (5). Germany has 3. If they win this year they're reaching us!

I don't know if I should be doing the good sport thing and cheer for them 'cause I do like their team or cheer against them hoping that we will not lose our one reason to be smug with Germans dammit this is the biggest dilemma ever

[quandtuniverse]

thank #__#

[and does that excite you, weirdo]

...Mhm. My thanks. You may take your pick of meat. [gestures to his fire a little ways away with various carcasses roasting over it. And yes bring your girlfriend in front of your terrifying silent and deadly father who will probably eat his weight in rare steak and break a dish or two before the evening ends and is immuned to scolding and direction]

Read of the Gods, child, of the heroes, I have tex--[pauses. It is never good when Germania pauses in mid-sentence. Pauses AT THAT DOUBTY MCDOUBTY RUDENESS, and pulls himself to his full height and gives you a sharp, withering look somehow more wild and bloodthirsty considering he has blood speared on his brow]



You dare mock me?

[romanon]

that's what I meant tho

Germans always play their best. sometimes it's not enough to win, sometimes it is, but you'll never get the feeling they're doing things half-assed which is instead a vibe I get from Italy's team (when we play badly. when we play well...but that's a story for another year). If Germans get a chance to score and win, they will, this is why they always advance far in all competitions

GERMANY CRUSHED IT

[no it just frightens him]

Meat... [thousand yard stare towards the fire, wondering why you always have so much meat, who exactly eats it all, and if you have ever ingested a vegetable.] Thank you. Yes, Vater, I will attend a performance of Der Ring des Nibelungen, I think that will do-

[why have you stopped

oh my god no nO HE SPOKE WITHOUT THINKING YOU'RE SO TALL

stands his ground. SWEATS.]

I- [help.] I think it will take more than a single goat, that is my only concern. The people here are truly, truly unwise. [like him]
