Warnings: post-tortured, friend attacking friend, betrayal, popped stitches, tense standoff
I had a few different anons ask for a continuation of this series awhile back, so here it is!
He needed time to hide, rest, and figure out what his next course of action would be. He had to get out of here before they put the place on lockdown.
His head was throbbing in time with his skittish heartbeat, the roar of blood in his ears near-deafening. He was fully in survival mode now -- fight or flight, primal instincts driving him. He just needed a minute to think of a plan and--
Nico froze up when he heard the handle of the office door being turned as someone slowly opened it. Then he squinted when the light flicked on, flooding the room with brightness.
Hesitant footsteps shuffled in, then stopped.
Silence.
"...Nico?" A quiet voice called.
He recognized it instantly. Amelia. The one person aside from Marcus he trusted most -- perhaps even more so -- or at least had trusted, before all his friends had turned on him. Amelia had been his solid rock, his sanity through the darkest times.
Nico didn't respond, gripping his gun tighter and trembling.
"If you can hear me, I heard about what happened," Amelia said to nothingness. "I came as soon as I got the call, and then they told me you attacked them and ran. I completely understand why you would, after what they did, so... I want to help you get out of here. I can take you back to my house for the time being, until you decide you're ready to come back -- on your own terms."
Her words were met with more silence, and she cleared her throat. "This is... really awkward if I'm talking to an empty room right now. But I know you so well, Nico -- this is exactly the kind of place you'd seek refuge in. Are you in here?"
Nico tensed up even more when he heard Amelia's footsteps nearing his hiding place as she started searching around. His position was compromised -- it was mere seconds before he would be found.
So he decided to make the first move to gain an advantage in the element of surprise. He popped up from under the desk, swiveling around and aiming his gun in one swift motion, leveled it right at Amelia's chest.
Hello ,
I never thought I would need to make a post like that, but recently my whole life took a 360 turn and I've been struggling to live all together.
My roommate is leaving the country so all the bills will be taken on me, I juet been robbed of all the money i had in possession and I need to get money as soon as possible to pay the rent.
I'm a student so at this moment I'm trying to find a job as soon as possible and get money.
I hate this kind of thing, but i kindly ask if anyone could donate even a small amount if would help me out greatly during this situation 😭
I would also be able to do different sort of comissions like art comissions or 3d modelling if anyone would be interested in it.
Sending you hugs... I don't know if I can donate because my country doesn't let me pay internationally most of the time but I'm sharing it anyway
Thank you so much this means a lot to me 🥺💕

ITS MARCH YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS
My ides tiramisu, if you even care
Ceaseless watcher turn your gaze upon this fuckin thing
Ceaseless watcher you seeing this shit?
Ceaseless watcher this shit’s fucking wild
Ceaseless watcher get a load of this
Ceaseless watcher clip that
ceaseless watcher look over at that but like don't make it obvious
ceaseless watcher tf am I seeing
Ceaseless watcher, look upon this fool of a man.
back in the 00s a single dancing anime chibi gif would feed us for months on end
Here’s the template. Go forth and recreate the dancing anime chibi gif. Revive the old ways.
This fucking thing all over deviantART in the 00s-10s LMAO
The bases on this post are all JPEGs for some reason. That makes them hard to use properly. I will link to the originals and provide some additional ones, along with a tutorial on how to actually make them into a GIF.
I couldn't find the caramelldansen base in this post, but here is a version that should work just as well.
To save these and have them be usable, you have to click the "free download" button underneath the image.
You can find many other bases like these through DeviantArt.
Step 1. Edit the base however you like (I used MSPaint)
Step 2: Crop and save each frame individually as PNGs (Note for the lick base: It's best to crop them to include the black boarder. This makes the GIF 50x50, which is the standard DeviantArt icon size and can easily scale larger if need be.)
Step 3: Go to ezgif.com/maker and upload all your frames
Step 4: Set "delay time" to 10, then click "Make a GIF!"
Step 5: Right-click the result and save it. Congrats! You used a GIF base!
ID: 1. A collection of early 2000s animation meme gifs and their still images. 2. screenshots of instructions to edit animation meme templates in ms paint and ezgif.com to result in a licking gif. End ID.
The art was made based on his history. After a war and a capture Eldrian finds himself in the haunted forest protected by the witch/wizard after he escaped feverish and wounded.
Made with low quality of color pencils, but I still think it's not that bad 🤔 maybe in a year or two I'll redraw it to see if it looks better.
so i spent far too long on this.
for those unaware, the spaghetti wall of letters and numbers is a base64-encoded JPEG image (and not a URL as some guessed). in certain cases when you tried to insert/paste an image into what’s ostensibly a text-only box, this could happen.
the thing that’s bugging me however is that there’s image data there. we have fairly a clear (albeit with JPEG artifacts) screenshot of text that, thanks to how Windows ClearType renders text, each character is identical to each other, that is to say, an uppercase Q will always look more or less pixel-perfect each time, meaning we don’t have to guess what a Q looks like, we simply have to pixel-accurate match it.
as an aside, this is why regular OCR struggles so much with this kind of data retrieval, such as code even when it’s clearer than a physical paper scan. ordinarily, OCR will try to best-guess every single letter because it expects each letter to be slightly different from each other (as would be the unpredictable nature in a scanned document), and on top of that most OCR today will try to autocorrect because it expects the scanned text to contain words in some human written language.
so, all we have to do is make a program to recognize each character and piece back together the whole base64 string, right? well…
first i stitched all 7 images back into a single block of text, observing the consistency of the line spacing. some of the screenshots have little bits of the previous one sticking out of it, which helps with alignment and to make sure they’re in the right order.
after that i had to sample every single letter off this file. this means going around the file and finding one example of each different character we’re trying to identify, saving it as its own separate file so that the program can load them as references to compare against in the full image. for base64, the alphabet consists of a-z, A-Z, 0-9, +, / and =. once i had the initial code in place…
…close! but oh so far. if any one single character in a base64 string is wrong or missing, the resulting decode will be wrong. the issues i was having were mostly with the lowercase r and j because of how the kerning affected the pixels around those letters. i was also getting false matches for r where there should be an m. what followed was grueling hours of tweaking the matching code and my known font set to better fit the original image and get as close as possible to a 100% match. here is the resulting code, maybe it’ll be useful for someone and this won’t have been a complete waste of time.
once i was confident through the verification image that i had all characters recognized, i put it through a base64 to JPEG decoder. i actually did this several times as i improved the recognition and what follows is the best result that came out of it yet. i suspect some of the data might be missing (perhaps a line or block of text got lost in between screenshots), or i have a wrong character somewhere resulting in a wrong value. this is the image extracted from OP’s base64 string:
we can finally know what they meant when they said “me in a relationship” and i can finally go the fuck to sleep.
update: i found that the string that i used to decode the image in the previous reblog actually had one letter wrong.
with this it still doesn’t parse as fully valid base64 in strict mode so i think there’s still another letter in there that’s wrong, but i couldn’t find it. however this gives us a better look:
and this is finally enough to do a reverse image search. i present to you, the HD version of our intrepid massive backpacker:
still have no idea what they mean by “me in a relationship” with that, though.
Fuck I’m at a fencing tournament and literally a minute after I reblogged this my dad told me that he talked to the point people and I’m probably going to win a medal.
BURN BAGEL BURN
OH WHY NOT?
I need to follow up to say I reblogged this last night, and this morning I got some of the best news of my life, like, a life dream come true news thing.
Bagel what are your powers
FUCK, I though it was just another lucky meme but LISTEN. Since a week ago I was waiting a phone call to confirm me if I got a job or not in my university. I reblogged this yesterday’s night “just for fun and because I don’t want any bagel to be mad with me”, and today’s afternoon, while I was losing my time as always, the professor I was supposed to work with called me and asked me for my personal information to start working with her.
