>>4038336
Thanks. I'll admit to doing only a cursory amount of research since I'm supposed to be revising, but I think Alastor's success in the army would depend on what he actually did. Maybe if he got over to Europe, he would enjoy it more, since Jim Crow wasn't a thing over here and the locals weren't so keen on imposing it.
>>4038480
Thanks. If we don't get it in the show, I'd still love to see Alastor's full backstory in some format. I don't have a proper headcanon for it, but there are several things that would fit and it would be nice to know what really happened in his past. Viv has definitely thought about it.

Well, this can’t backfire at all. Since it was basically a raffle, why not just choose something neutral so we don’t have to deal with ship drama.

I genuinely enjoy seeing what others come up with, I only hope that when Viv does give him a backstory (if she does), it's appropriate to his character.

>Vivzie making a post saying she had nothing to do with it

What the fuck is her problem with charlastor? I don’t even care for it I’m an rs shipper but the amount of bitterness both her and Amir see to have for the ship seems ridiculous.

File: G4--a7GWEAA2uDN.jpg (245.8 KB)

>>4038707
Ah, she made a comment on Danidraws's post on Bluesky (because of course...). The whole attitude towards Charlastor is aggravating, and I'm saying that as someone who dislikes and actively avoids engaging with the ship. For any other ship you wouldn't get so many people jumping in to make sure everyone knows it's unofficial and it's just a silly raffle, obviously no one really likes Charlastor because that's crazy. The amount of little digs against the ship is so annoying, far outweighing the few irritating fans I've seen. Viv adding her voice to that just pisses me off. Charlastor hate is normalised in this fandom and perpetuated by the creator and her buddies. Over what, some fans being annoying years ago?

Amir knew what he was doing. Since it was a random selection, there was no reason why he couldn't have fudged the draw to choose a less controversial ship, or come up with a "funny" answer. The whole situation leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

File: IMG_7917.jpg (86.0 KB)

>>4038708
Imo Dani is worse in this situation. Viv said something similar when Amir and Christian made the print that hinted at RS. Dani just jumps out and says 'Viv doesn't like the ship', which is 10x more inflammatory than anything said up until this point. I will continue to ship it just to spite them, but Amir knew what he was doing, he should have said something safe like Cherisnake or something. Viv is a control freak with an army of fujos behind her who clap like seals whenever she says anything against a straight ship with Al or Vox. I miss the pilot era where people just posted what they liked and that was it.

>>4038734
Yeah, she is.
>I'm not going to talk for Viv but she definitely hates this ship LOL
Seriously gtfo with that shit. If I liked it I'd post it just to be contrary, but alas. I just think the immediate denial of canonicity is kind of patronising, coming from so many people at once. Which other straight ships has Viv spoken against? My mind is fuzzy because of maths and I can't remember anything off the top of my head except her blatant bias against Charlastor.

>>4038734
>>4038738
>Dani just jumps out and says 'Viv doesn't like the ship'
I had no idea that even happened. These people are so shitty, I have never heard of creators actively shitting on pairings they don't like and discouraging the fandom from shipping them. Fucking insanely childish.

File: HH5dN3JacAAarol.jpg (373.1 KB)

I'm amazed Viv's sycophants on bluesky even let her get away with saying nothing about Brandon Rogers' blackface debacle. Bluesky is supposed to be the "woke" wholesome chungus version of xitter, yet droves of RA shippers, who famously pride themselves on being unproblematic, come out to defend and praise her for not even addressing blackface. To be clear I think bringing up something he did years ago is dumb, but I also don't virtue signal or pretend like I'm woke the way her ass kissers do. The cognitive dissonance is funny

File: IMG_7618.jpg (89.3 KB)

>>4038738
Charlastor gets the worst of it, but she's been hostile towards just about any straight ship involving Charlie, at least that's what people have implied. Basically anything that isn't yaoislop or the most bland, basic bitch hetslop imaginable. For a 'romance' writer she writes absolute dogwater ships, so her being critical of anything is humorous.
>>4038740
Very petty. I've shipped Charlastor since the pilot era, I don't mind if Viv doesn't like it, but creating drama over it is really immature. Honestly it's better than whatever nonsense she could come up with for Lucifer.
>>4038741
>racism is fine when my fave does it
While I think we have *much* bigger fish to fry as a society, it is a little hypocritical. These are the same people who will argue until they're blue in the face about how to 'accurately' depict Alastor without ever having lived in the Gulf, so I find their lack of outrage telling.

Look what I got today, shiny shiny. Plus turf war oc but I won’t share that here because it has a tv on it. Ahem.
>>4038740
It’s not a great look, and it’s terribly unprofessional. Viv knows that if she doesn’t like a ship, she can just not put it in her own show, right? She can have her opinions and likes and dislikes, but sharing them with a very impressionable fanbase is incredibly irresponsible.
>>4038741
This is another thing that was handled badly, after days of drama Viv tells everyone to just get off twitter. And Brandon himself hasn’t said anything about it either. Can’t Amazon just get her a tard wrangler already, it’s way overdue.

It's actually funny that you mention it, my husband says the same thing, the Alastor cards are too dark and do a disservice to the art. You need to shine a light on them to properly appreciate them.

>The Lilith Fund Amir was raising money for was for providing abortion access.
Ehhh...isn't he supposed to be Christian? I know it's off topic, but still, he could have donated money to women's shelters or something, hell even free contraception access. As a practicing Catholic associating Lilith with abortion comes across as an empowerment girl boss thing and it doesn't sit well. Especially if Hazbin VAs are associating themselves with it. Dani is still stirring shit as well, it's incredibly annoying.

File: IMG_7912.jpg (62.5 KB)

>>4038998
>Christian
To elaborate, I know he was raised Muslim, but I was under the impression he converted since he's quoted numerous Bible verses. Even still abortion is haram in Islam and can only be done prior to 120 days of gestation and only for rape, incest, and severe fetal anomalies. Getting people to donate money for abortions that are generally against your religion so you can troll about ships seems incredibly weird.

I can't really speak on Amir's religious convictions, all I can find on the subject is the fact he was raised Muslim. I think he saw the word "Lilith" and jumped on it, knowing that it's somewhat related to Hazbin and so it would get more attention. I think the entire thing was badly thought out, and I'm tired of both the crew involving themselves with shipping and shippers of all flavours involving them with fandom shit. All it does is cause arguments. I'm sure it got a lot of donations, but at what cost to the fandom.

Actually it's good timing, because I need to engage less with Hazbin shit and more with revision. Thanks Amir for making things unbearable.

I'm tired of keeping track of which ship we're supposed to be hating today. There are idiots in every ship, I don't care anymore. I'm still going to ship them all, Hazbin orgy let's go. The main problem with the politics is people using what the VAs say to start discourse where it isn't needed. I just want to enjoy my deer, is that too much to ask?

>>4039664
Most of us here are pretty indifferent I'd say. Not wanting it to actually happen the show, not allowing ship art in a yume thread, and recognizing that some shippers are insufferable isn't the same as hating the ship. If anything I actually tolerate RA more than RS at this point because of the whole MM stuff. Too many people take criticism as blanket statement against their ships, it's unfortunate. I ship Charlastor and I'm well aware that some of them are schizo.

File: IMG_7861.jpg (296.9 KB)

>>4039666
>in the show I mean
Speaking of, it was interesting to see Viv tweet about merch not being an indicator of an upcoming ship. This is something I've been saying for a while since in the pilot days we had tons of Charlie x Alastor merch. We see how that went lol. Maybe the merch doomerism will die down some. I know people are disappointed about something in the other show which prompted her tweet, but I'm completely out of the loop with that since I don't watch it.

File: HIhVOvBbwAADxZm.jpg (1006.3 KB)

>>4039666
I'm pretty impervious at this point, I know people dislike it and why, and I don't really care. I don't like Charlastor, so what, I don't have to see it and I know that the majority of Charlastors aren't making art of Vaggie being beheaded. There are crazies in every ship, and it's also the easiest bait ever since everyone gets so defensive. We could do with some leaks or something, everyone's getting bored lel.
>>4039670
>merch doomerism will die down
Please. I roll my eyes at the silly theorising based on merch placement, but there are people saying they're going to kill themselves over it. It's not that deep. If I was in charge of merch I'd start putting the most random pairs together for the lulz. In HB everyone was disappointed because they kind of baited a Verosika short, and it turned out to be a Chaz MV. Basically discourse on Viv's treatment of female characters again.

File: IMG_7571.jpg (173.6 KB)

>>4039672
Definitely, some new content would be good and distract everyone from ship wars.

>killing yourself over ships
Ugh, that's not good. At the absolute worst Al gets put in a fujo ship and I check out of the fandom. Dramatics are unnecessary. I pointed out that they're probably always going to be put together because they're currently the only 'single' characters. With the HB stuff, that's par for the course I guess. If I had to guess Viv is heavily influenced by the people that she surrounds herself with like Dani.

File: HIh_ssFaUAEw7Tv.jpg (129.3 KB)

>>4039675
Exactly, it doesn't need to be any deeper than that. I bet next season we're going to get a load of Lucilith and Morningstar family merch. Well, unless Viv goes full retard and breaks them up for RA, anyway. With the limited characters who get merch, who do you pair Alastor up with anyway? If they did Vox the discourse would be about breaking up SM for RS. With Charlie and it would be about breaking up Chaggi for Charlastor. There's no good option for characters that he actually has meaningful interaction with in the show because they're all canonically in relationships with other people. I hope people are joking when they say things like that, but you never know. Regardless, it's a shitty thing to joke about.

File: IMG_7392.jpg (1.4 MB)

>>4039680
I think it's pretty wishful thinking with the RAs that Lucilith will break up. After all in the 'matching' merch set we literally had a postcard with Lucifer saying he loves his wife. I expect ship bait, but that's it. I do understand being devastated by it, as I'm sure I'd be very rattled myself, but joking about self harm is never good. It's impossible to pair Alastor with anyone at this point without people being weird, I'm afraid.

File: HIh8IlVbYAATTl5.jpg (88.4 KB)

>>4039696
I do think there is a chance they might break up, they're at least going to go through some heavy strife next season. But, I really doubt it will be just so Lucifer can fall into Alastor's arms, if that is the case. It would be impossible to pull off getting out of a deeply devoted 10000 year relationship just to get over it immediately with some guy that has annoyed you for maybe a year at most. The only people who believe that will happen are deluded. For my own headcanons, I generally see Lucilith as being amicably broken up when it comes to RA. I don't really see the need to demonise a character we've barely seen just to justify a ship. It's just a fantasy though, I'm intrigued to see how it'll all play out in canon (as someone who also likes Lucilith) but I'm definitely not expecting canon romantic RA. I don't actually know how I'd handle it becoming canon at this point, I'd definitely dip for a while at least because the backlash would be horrendous. I can see Alastor kind of inserting himself into the Morningstar family, he still has that admiration for Charlie and he finds Lucifer entertaining. He was successfully able to manipulate Charlie into making a deal with him, and use that deal to break his deal with Rosie. I don't know if the whole seven years thing coinciding with Lilith's disappearance will mean anything, but there's a chance that it's relevant as well. It's fairly clear his future lies with the Morningstars in some capacity, in my opinion.

I would personally find it utterly hilarious if Alastor were having an affair with Lilith and that's why they were both MIA for seven years. Alastor would be everything Lucifer isn't in terms of a powerful being in Hell, one that can actually hurt sinners as well. I can see if Lilith wanted an uprising Alastor would be of more value fhan her husband. That might also explain why Charlie is of interest to Al and why he hates Lucifer. In such a scenario Lucifer would discover this relationship but be unable to harm Al, leading to high drama. Charlie would have 'two dads' in a sense as well. Lucifer and Lilith would eventually work out their marital issues and everything would be saved by the power of friendship per the norm. I'm probably 100% off mark but I feel like this would make more sense than RA becoming canon.

Radioqueen affair would be so funny, and plays right into my Hellradio gooner fantasies. I do think Lucilith are endgame, and I think from the way Viv spoke about the way Lucifer and Alastor's relationship is going to develop, it's fairly safe to assume it isn't going to be some soppy romance where Alastor sweeps Lucifer off his feet and makes his fee-fees all better. I can see Alastor being attracted to Lilith as well, she's strong and spirited, with the ability to empower sinners. More power for the strongest sinner. And yes, it would explain why he immediately took a disliking to Lucifer. I've seen theories like, he originally tried to summon Lucifer but Lucifer just didn't answer and so Alastor held a grudge, which only got worse once they met. It sounds a bit convoluted for the show, but it would be nice to have something deeper than "they just don't vibe with each other". Idk, if they are setting up for RA then it would be nice for it to have some actual basis.

>>4039714
I agree that Lucilith are endgame, though a RadioQueen affair would tie up a lot of loose ends narratively. I can see Alastor and Lucifer coming to some sort of amicable friendship after the fact. There's just too much that doesn't make sense if RA actually happens imo. The only thing that throws me is the Rosie stuff. Surely Lilith could have broken that deal?

My grammar is dogwater. I should nap.

>>4039717
There's a reason why most of my RA fics have them already in a relationship, and the one I'm currently writing is moving at a glacial pace. (four chapters in and they're no closer to getting together... haha) Idk if Lilith could have broken the deal, wouldn't she just be a sinner herself? Though it's kind of a weird thing because did she die when she was cast into Hell with Lucifer, or what? It would be interesting if she functioned more like one of the Hellborn. There are lots of myths about her out there but who knows what Viv will choose to add into the story. Rosie is a whole other beast, anyway. I guess we'll also find out more about her and what she really is as well.
>>4039718
Get some rest, haha. I should be revising, I have an exam in 12 hours and I've done hardly anything for it. Too many distractions today...

Lilith is likely to be a clusterfuck, especially after all this build up. Viv has good ideas, but terrible execution. Her writing just isn't good enough to do the characters justice, and she's shit at taking criticism. I have low expectations, hopefully I'm pleasantly surprised.

Passing with a C is still passing. Hate how so much of the grade can be linked to the finals, but it is what it is, keep us updated on the exams and the silly deer key chain!

File: HCthWTwaUAA2ln1.jpg (158.9 KB)

>>4039873
See I don't really need to put much effort in since I need 40% to pass the module and I already nearly got pretty much 30% from the coursework. Next year I need to worry about grades because it actually counts towards my degree. The keychain is the one from the maid cafe, I was going to see if I can get it on mercari but someone uploaded it on vinted so that saves me using buyee. The deer has such pretty eyes on it.

File: IMG_4073.jpg (1.4 MB)

>>4039876
30- to 40 passing margins aren’t bad, but when the exam is like 50 percent of your final grade? It hurts a lot, going from an A to a high C. Very annoying! He has nice eyes in that one.

>>4039877
Ah, yes, that's annoying... for us the exam is worth 70%. I'm getting better at exams, thankfully. Next year I'll be ok, just need 70% overall to get a first. I can't wait to finally get my maid cafe merch, it's been sitting with tenso far too long. That big tapestry is going to look so good on my wall.

I do wish we'd get some nice art prints or something similar, Viv is missing out making posters of the most random nonsense imaginable.

What is (you)r favourite deer look? These are mine, I think I have a type...

Yeah, more prints like this and fewer random funny porn posters... The in-universe posters are fun, but I'd love something a bit more artistic that I could put up in my room.

File: IMG_3158.jpg (798.5 KB)

>>4039986
I'm not surprised by my rankings, heh.

Definitely something more artistic. If fan artists are able to make beautiful posters Viv's team can, it's like they're setting out to make the most bland merch imaginable.

I didn't think I was that much of a monsterfucker, but ok. It was really hard to choose a lot of the time, I love this stupid deer in all his forms.

Hazbin merch team once again allergic to money. Posters can't be expensive to print, and the merch artists are definitely capable of making stunning pieces.

File: IMG_7749.jpg (77.2 KB)

>>4039993
I'm quite the monsterfucker depending on my mood, so I understand the thirst. The only things that I wasn't super attracted to were the merch and literal animal forms, otherwise I'm dtf that deer. :0

I'd imagine they're the cheapest things to produce, so you'd think they'd have more? If I'm being honest, so much of the merch artists' independent work is far superior to the official work they've done for A24. American VVitchcraft is a good example. Her official pins are 'meh', while her personal ones can be stunning.

Embarrasingly human Alastor is like 27th for me... Most of them though are interchangeable and it would probably change depending on the day. It confirms my preference for demon Al though.

I feel like a lot of the older merch is better. I saw a bag on vinted yesterday with chibi Charlie and Alastor and it was so cute, I would have bought it if I was into Charlastor. Unfortunately, a lot of the older merch is really expensive secondhand, especially with the deer tax. I mostly buy things if they pop up and the price doesn't fill me with dread. I think if I actually went through and made a list of ISOs, I'd have a breakdown.

There was so much Charlastor stuff back during the pilot days, which is why I've told people that 'proving' anything with merch is not the best of ideas. Based on the merch then most people would have assumed Charlator was real lol. Regardless I'm glad Viv shot down the merch theories. My ISOs are mostly pins that I know I'll probably never find, or pins that I'm just not going to pay $100+ for, like the BatsyBunny Lvlup pin that originally sold for $25. These con exclusive items are painfully annoying.

File: G2LaWykaIAIB4Wl.jpg (2.0 MB)

>>4040157
>con exclusive
I don't like how much stuff is now con exclusive. It's getting beyond just having a nice souvenir of the event. Is it that hard to just make a special variant for a con, or something? Idk, with the way things are right now with scalpers etc, it just feels bad. It just encourages that kind of behaviour. Or you end up with situations like Faeymouse's fancards, who got abuse because she put up leftovers and there were a bunch of people who couldn't buy them.

I'll stop ranting about it haha, I know that they're not technically doing anything wrong by having exclusives but it feels bad anyway. There shouldn't be so much discourse around printed paper and plastic, I swear. I got to order the stupid deer face cushion earlier, so it's actually a good day.

It's a very valid thing to be upset about. That annoys me along with gatcha merch. I would rather pay a little extra and be sure that I'm getting what I want. I swear the younger generations just have a low key gambling addiction.

Blind boxes can die in a fucking fire. Outside of my doujins and trading cards, all of my merch is Alastor bar 2 RS standees. I do not want any other characters, and I know if I have to buy deer merch second hand it will always cost more than nearly every other character. I think they do have a problem, every time I open youtube I'm bombarded with videos about opening packs of Pokemon cards and things like that. It's a little scary. I'm just tired of behaviour that encourages scalpers, both from big companies and smaller creators. Not that I can really speak, my GTBBOTA card I bought off ebay should be here tomorrow.

File: IMG_8126.png (2.0 MB)

>>4040208
Even with Alastor merch I'm reluctant to buy blind bags. The last thing I want is a Vox colored Alastor, ha. This is especially true when creators might send duplicates. I can understand buying something from a gatcha machine at a convention booth, but not from Etsy or the like. Just let me buy what I want.

If I could physically go into a shop in this country and buy them, I don't think I'd mind as much. Unfortunately it's a lot of money to ship things over here just to end up with something I don't want. Why would I want anyone else anyway, that's crazy.

Ah that's good! I do not miss those days. I sometimes consider going back, but I don't need the added stress, plus I'd probably go back for something I didn't get a degree in previously, so I'm not sure how much would transfer. Deer would distract me anyway...

Ooh there's more Japanese merch coming soon with human Alastor and Alastor in his pink suit. Ther's standees, badges, socks... some of them have Vox parading him around, a tiny win for RSfags. The images are kind of small so I'll just link it: https://prtimes.jp/main/html/rd/p/000000057.000080478.html

Slightly off topic, but Erika has an interview out soon, there are clips out where she's talking about season 3. Maybe we're finally going to get some good character development for Charlie.

I mostly want the pink outfit, so it can go with the Valentine's standee, and some stickers. It's fairly bland, but it's cheap enough. The standees are like £8 and I can wait a bit longer to ship my tenso order. Idk when the interview is, they just released a clip and said the full interview is coming. On the face of it it sounds like we're getting more of the same, Charlie not listening to anyone and some tension with Vaggie. It would be fun if there was some actual consequences to it this time.

I really only expect lesbian drama that is resolved in the next episode by sex as we've gotten before. Charlie's character has been so utterly destroyed in my eyes I doubt there's anything they can do to fix it.

It'll be super unsatisfying if so. The third time they have a fight and resolve everything five minutes later with nothing actually being resolved. Let them break up for a bit, idk. I'd like to see the full interview, it's hard to get the full context from a 2 minute clip.

A steak you usually pound and dip in either bread crumbs and flower before baking/frying. Like a southern schnitzel almost

Flour…

File: GKEw128aQAASLAv.jpg (229.7 KB)

In that case, you could probably do it, just don't make them too big and dip them just before you cook them to stop them from breaking up.

>>4040774
Hmm...I've never done it with ground beef. I can't really give advice, but do let us know how that turns out. I'd personally add some bread crumbs/flour or egg to help keep the patties together. Maybe season with steak spices or onion powder?
>>4040775
It's the one time I think Charlastor might actually be interesting. If Charlie becomes estranged from Vaggie and Alastor tries to manipulate himself into the situation to both piss off Lucifer and gain power. Anything is better than more pointless arguments between Chaggie.

File: IMG_9599.jpg (299.4 KB)

>>4040779
Good advice, probably will make them about burger sized, more manageable that way
>>4040780
Flour and cornstarch is my plan, but yeah onion powder or some sort of steak seasoning might be good, could just go with salt and pepper as well

File: HI7Mkwjb0AAERIh.jpg (72.1 KB)

>>4040780
After all the times the crew have said that Alastor respects Charlie or something along those lines, I'll be disappointed if it doesn't come to anything. It would be way more interesting than Chaggie not being able to communicate again. I don't have any hope for romantic Charlastor, but they could be such a good duo.

Good luck, I'm sure they'll be delicious.
