ICYMI -- here are some of the top moments coming out of the final major of CS:GO:

Liquid Rolls Back the Years (to 2019 not 2018)

Who had Liquid 0-2 to 3-2 in the BLAST Paris Challengers Stage?
After getting embarrassed by Apeks & ForZe on Day 1, few believed NA’s darlings would recover from their disastrous start... until they got matched against Fluxo in the 0-3 pool.
Fluxo got 16-2’d by paiN -- how could Liquid lose?
(If I had a nickel for every time I asked that question I wouldn't be writing this)
In classic Liquid fashion, they gave their 14 year old fanbase multiple heart attacks throughout the series. Despite being pushed to the edge, Liquid pulled through to live on at the Major. After steamrolling their NA brethren in Complexity, Liquid faced Grayhound for the last spot in the Legends stage. It was a layup of a match for them, taking care of the dawgs in two maps and continuing their major run.
Surprisingly, they didn’t choke on the opening day of Legends. They destroyed 9INE and Na’Vi to go 2-0, off the back of a disgusting match by YEKINDAR.
Liquid 3-0 pickers slept happy that night, but their bubble was popped the following day 🫧
Up against their kryptonite (5 dudes from Denmark) Liquid failed to take down Heroic to earn their berth in playoffs, which tee’d them up for a 2-1 match against Into the Breach. The Brits vs. Americans — what year is this, 1781?
Liquid made quick work of the world’s 28th best team on an overtime Overpass and one-sided Anubis, securing their spot among the 8 final teams in the Paris major. Despite not going 3-0, Liquid have made NA proud once again — perfect timing for the final CS:GO Major.
​

🇩🇰 Heroic and Vitality 🐝

I had Heroic as my 3-0 until I switched them for ENCE. Please do not ask me how I’m doing.
ZywOo decided he wanted to win Paris, so that was cool ig. Bro dropped a 1.38 rating in their 3-0 run. Playing in his home city must’ve awoken something inside of him. Rumor has it the air quality is perfect in Paris — and this has something to do with his performances. On the Heroic side — they swept aside FaZe and Apeks en route to their playoffs speedrun. They took down Liquid in the 2-0 pool for the cherry on top 🍒

G-2 Disappointing Majors in a Row

Déjà vu anyone?
At least this time G2 actually made it to the major before bombing out in the Swiss Stage 🧀 After losing their opening match to the ZywOo Effect™️, they fumbled the bag by losing 16-13 to an org-less Bad News Eagles 🦅
G2's backs were against the ropes — one Bo3 away from elimination in the final Major of CS:GO. FURIA were next in line for G2, but their crippling lack of T-Sides allowed G2 to live another day. In the 1-2 pool, G2 found themselves against the mezii-led fnatic in a game with elimination on the line. After taking each of their own map picks, the two euro-mixes found themselves on the game’s best fucking map for elimination:

DE_VERTIGO

​
nicoodoz came alive on the final map to turn the tides in favor of fnatic, who took the map 16-13. Minutes later, there were numerous reports of Chinese phone numbers hitting up members of G2.
​

The PLAYOFFS:

ZywOo decided this was his tournament to win. The Chosen One and his friends took home the slimy dorito trophy in front of the home crowd 🥖
Vitality scooped up their first major in an undefeated playoff run against some of the best teams in the world — Into the Breach, Apeks, and GamerLegion.
Yes. You are reading that correctly. To say they had an easy run is… an understatement. Sure, you can only face who is in front of you, and props to them for capitalizing. It just feels kinda lame how the playoffs of the final CS:GO major played out.
In other news, dupreeh took home his fifth Major title in Vitality’s dream run.
This makes him:

• The only player to have won 5 majors 🎖
• The only player that has attended every major in history 🥇
• The player with the most career earnings all-time 💰
• The only player with the right to use that amazing Faze down, Ass up deagle nickname lmao 🔥

This dude really went from sweating bullets to sweating major trophies, huh?

R.I.P DIAMOND COINS AGAIN 💎

When the Major comes around, there’s one CS:GO fans always like to bitch about — their Pick 'Ems. According to Leetify, only 0.3% of players got the diamond coin this time around. This was better than Rio’s 0.1%, but still abysmal compared to the 8% and 11% of Berlin and Antwerp respectively.
Why did so few get the coin this time? Some of the biggest names failed to make it out of the legends stage. Teams like G2 and Na’Vi. The ones that did, like Heroic and Liquid, didn’t even make it past the semis. I don’t know about you, but the absolute last thing I was expecting was GamerLegion in the final. Here’s some of the notable matches that led to this wild playoff bracket:

• fnatic 2-1 versus G2 (ouch)
• GamerLegion 2-1 versus Heroic (ouch again)
• Apeks 2-0 versus Liquid
• Into the Breach 2-1 versus fnatic (UK on UK violence smh)

​

Guys This Isn’t a Disney Movie Why Are All These Underdogs Here 😳

He’s H-iM
Let’s talk about the people who pulled off the upsets, who shook the scene to its core throughout the last major ever.
First on the list is Mihai “iM” Ivan from GamerLegion. This guy was turning heads all tournament with his outstanding level of play against the very best.
Despite him and his team getting off to a disastrous start of 0-2 in the challengers stage, they fought their way all the way to the Grand Final. He ended the tournament with a stupid 1.35 HLTV rating, trailing only ZywOo.
Apex Legends Apeks Playoffs
Another team that surprised everyone has to be Apeks— remember guys like STYKO, jkaem, or nawwk? They impressed everyone by stealing a spot in the semis over NA’s darling.
In a run that seemingly came out of no where, yet another random mix of EU players stormed the game’s biggest stage, broke countless hearts, put up a solid fight against the eventual trophy lifters.
I'm just glad I didn’t put any money on these games. If I did, I’d probably have to resort to writing a CS:GO newsletter just to make rent! Wait...
If you like this sorta CS coverage -- I have a newsletter where I recap everything going on in CS. Highlights, news, memes, you name it. It's called The Defuse Kit. Here's the link:

Hello people of Jabalpur, my BA examinations will begin from 8th June, and I haven't studied anything related to the syllabus the entire year because I was busy working in a company and also studying for government competitive exams. So you guys tell me how to write answers so that RDVV gives me good marks.
According to my seniors, RDVV is pretty lenient when it comes to awarding marks; all you have to do is write something related to the topic and it shouldn't exceed the word limit. Is this true?

Congratulations to rereplay for winning the Monsters Attack! Championship!

I realize this movie couldn't be successful if the Mulligans had made it as long as the 3 hour 30 minute Ultimate Cut of Watchmen. Our society simply can't focus for that long :'( -- 2 hours would have been fine, I think. Some things I liked. Some things needed adding, or expanding on. Going to summarize with just bullet points, or this becomes 40 fat paragraphs. No particular order, just as I thought/think of it.
​

• 2 more minutes to explain WHO Thomas Peterffy is, and show him sweating his balls off. Remember, he accidentally gave us 2 very critical pieces of info: (1) That the price WAS going into the thousands. (2) That all we had to do was "ask for our shares" (DRS -- which no one really knew about yet). Americans MUST hear and recognize these 2 bits of info.
• Loved the musical sampling, but sometimes the bass was very heavy, and actually competed with the interviewees voices, or the monologue. I know an incredible Hollywood-seasoned pro audio guy in LA who can help the Mulligans for the sequel. PM/DM guys, me if you wish.
• 2 more minutes of meme samples, with more emphasis on why morale is so very important. The Bart-Homer meme had me laughing, but maybe a Matrix meme or one of the crayon memes, or The Warriors-Ryan-Cohen-as-Luther could have added emphasis that a bunch of goofy-ass retreaded apes, who self-deprecate, and self-defecate, are imminently going to slam dunk, balls-in-the-face, on Wall Street.
• Hhhwhere Apex Clearing ???? We got to Robinhood and Citadel giving tuggies to each other, but no mention of Apex doing the reacharound?? More villain hierarchy needed 3-5 minutes of exposure.
• Cede & Co also missing. Physical share certs vs. digital was touched-on, but the DTCC didn't receive a proper lambasting, nor with any connections made to Cede (maybe the biggest boss in this whole shit mess). 2 more minutes for this please.
• FTDs. MONSTER TOPIC. Maybe the most important. Brushed on briefly, but not really explored. I think Dr. Trimbath needed a few more minutes, to get a little detailed on FTDs and Obligations Warehousing.
• ODDITIES: We definitely needed 5-10 minutes to touch on weird shit like the Illinois Iron Oxide Mountain fire, the Brazilian Puts, and other stonkfunkery. The public needs to see that there is action taking place in the background, that their imaginations could not fathom before.
• 2 more minutes for Infinite Risk explanation. I think most average Muricans who watch will still come away from this documentary saying "Naw, how can the price go __that__ high?? Not possible".
• 10% less tugging of heartstrings, and 10% more FLOWCHARTS , pleeeeeaasseeee. I know people have shit attention span, and getting people in their feels works... but even the most dull of our population would have a little blood boil, if they could view connections from what was seemingly unrelated parties and occurrences.
• Keith Gill's Options needed a more thorough explanation. We see it went from $50,000 to millions, but got little explanation of his DD and his timing, and NO details of what an options contract is. People will think he "got lucky".
• BCG, Board of Directors, and other bad actors needed 5 minutes of airtime. It's important for the public to know that it's not just hedge funds and Wall Street... it's ancillary shitasses, trojan horses, and weaponized double-agent internal BOD and C-suite, as well, that alllllll contribute to this diseased state of what should be squarely-run companies.
• CokeRat was sensationalized, but we needed to present him as the 2-faced scumbag junkie that he is.
• The AMAs of Shark Cuban and Jon Stewart should have been addressed. Stewart squeezing Gensler's balls a little, should have been squeaked in too. Depending on post-production, Stewart's may have been close, but I think it would have made it. 5 minutes of footage for these 2 guys, would have rocked.
• The popcorn aura and previous influences, is forgivable. Let's consider maybe a lot of the movie started getting cobbled together in 2021, when info was still being sorted. And Co-Chodes definitely needs an adrenaline shot, or a hot woman's ass in his face, to wake him up.
• I would have hoped to see " rSuperstonk " given about 10 seconds of blatant exposure, to get new blood into this site. I did see the purple crayon cocaine line for about 2 seconds, but that's not enough. I have faith some will dig enough, they will land here, and join the quest.
• GOOD AMOUNT of HUMOR in the film. I appreciate that the Mulligans have a sense of humor... and this film is chock-full of it. We need to keep our morale, no matter what. Lose the morale, lose the war.

I'm not going to give the film a score, but I will say that it managed to captivate a 16-year old with really bad ADHD problems, who normally doesn't sit still longer than 5 minutes. Galvanized my angry Mom further (she worked at our cough-cough-corrupt-judge-fraudulently-bankrupted JCPenney, for 16 years). Her diamond hands equal any of ours. Also kept the attention of my girlfriend and her boyfriend, who both thought I was the village idiot 2.5 years ago. Lots of questions were asked, during and after. Knowledge has been spread..... "And knowing is half the battle!"

That's all I can think of for now. Thank you to the Mulligans for making this. I have no problem paying $16 or $20 or $30 for a sequel. Hurry up with it.

Hang tight retreads. We're gonna win this.

~ 1. Introduction ~
Here is a detailed description of my wishlist for a Mario Kart 9 or 10/X (if Tour is considered the 9th installment) I don't expect everyone to like all my ideas. This is just a wishlist. I obviously would be happy with any Mario Kart Nintendo decides to put out but in a perfect world, this is what I would want for it to be the best Mario Kart imo. I hope you enjoy.

*³ - Even if not many people liked Automatic drifting, it was there for a reason for you to choose. Some liked it. Some didn't. It should be the player's choice.
*⁴ - Camera can also be changed freely during the race from the pause menu.

*¹ - Added a Pro difficulty to make the CPU feel more of a challenge.
*² - Wanted to split the vehicle selections between Solo Dash and Double Dash drivers. Solo Dash drivers will now only select between Karts and Bikes and Double Dash drivers will only select between ATVs and new Buggy vehicles. *Buggys are essential similar to the designs of the Karts used in Mario Kart Double Dash. ATVs are now bigger in size to help fit the idea of 2 drivers on one vehicle.
*³ - The original Super Mario Kart had 5 courses per Cup so I brought that option back for custom races.
*⁴ - Wanted to make the option available for players. These courses will be excluded from Laps option and be set to default when selected: ⁿ⁶⁴ Wario Stadium, ⁿ⁶⁴ Rainbow Road, ᵍᶜⁿ Baby Park, ᵍᶜⁿ Wario Colosseum, ³ᵈˢ Wuhu Loop, ³ᵈˢ Maka Wuhu, ³ᵈˢ Rainbow Road, ʷⁱⁱ ᵘ Mount Wario, and ʷⁱⁱ ᵘ Big Blue.

• • A Report button will finally be added to report cheaters/hackers/etc.
• • I'm thinking Solo Dash races will feature the usual 12 players (1st - 12th place) while Double Dash races features upto 16 players but 8 groups total (1st - 8th place).
• • Worldwide and Regional Grand Prix will be 2-12 racers (or 4-16 in doubles mode) in a 4-race Cup from any randomly displayed Cups. Cups are then selected based on player voting.
• • Create Room will now feature customized options such as Mode, Teams, Items, CPUs, and Vehicles similar to the Create a Tournament option.
• • For online, I'd also like for a better ranking system to prevent casual players from racing against competitive players and vice versa.

• • The race start intro and race finishes to retro courses will have a remake version of their original transitions along with a rearranged verison of their original theme from that respective retro course. Example for better understanding. * Mario Kart GP courses will have the current game's race start and finish transitions.
• • I somehow also want to incorporate a way that once the Retro Grand Prix is unlocked, the title screen will have remake versions of the original title screens from previous Mario Kart games similar to Mario Party Superstars. Example
• It would show different title screens at each start up similarly to how Mario Kart 8/Deluxe's title screens Example
  
• • Sometimes the CPU seems to make decisions that only seem to target the player regardless of placement. I want a smarter CPU for harder difficulties that won't just use an item just to use. If a CPU is holding a shell, they should use it logically or defend themselves with it logically.
• • I personally am fine with every other mechanic used in Mario Kart 8/Deluxe such as driving techniques used, amiibo settings, Stats, etc. Keep the same driving techniques even during Double Dash mode. I personally was not a fan of Mario Kart Double Dash's drift mechanic and would not want that function brought back.

• - there's plenty of room for more characters but I figured 100 was the perfect amount of characters, especially with the double dash feature with everyone potentially having a partner with no odd person out.

~ Vehicles
Available parts. The parts available are listed here in the order shown in the vehicle customization screen, with the following notation: ¹ = Changes color, depending on the character. ² = Changes color for the Koopalings. ³ = Changes color for Daisy, Baby Daisy, Rosalina, and Baby Rosalina. (DLC) = Part is only available as downloadable content.

• Personally, I would want a system that prevents everyone from choosing the best racer with the best vehicle parts. For example If Luigi is the best racer and his best vehicle is the standard kart with mushroom tires, and gold glider, obviously everyone will choose Toad and those exact parts to win races. I want everyone to choose their favorite racer and parts that make them comfortable to race in, and not just look at a list of the best racers and parts and just copy and paste that. I don't know how to fix this honestly but I'm sure someone could help with ideas to this to make everyone equal in a way on the track with their own individuality similar to what Mario Kart 7 did with their characters.

× – Does not appear in Battle Mode.
~ Items found on the track
Item Box - Gives the player a random item. Items given are based on the player's distance from first place. * I would like for them to look either similar to how they looked in Mario Kart 64 or Mario Kart DS' design.
Coin - Gives the player a small boost and increase top speed when more are collected, up to a maximum of ten.
Rupee - The equivalent of a coin, used for Hyrule Circuit and Zelda related courses. They replace coins in the item roulette and in the track.

I was going to start with ubuntu, but in the /LocalLLaMA i came across this comment:
"Majority of tools for AI/ML are developed and tested on Ubuntu. So go Ubuntu LTS or PopOS LTS. The latter is a Ubuntu base with a bunch of useful pre-configured packages, such as Nvidia driver, CUDA, pytorch/tensorflow, graphics switching, tiling manager (to some extend) to name a few. These pre-installed tools will make your life easier. On a different note, there are tons of PDF reader. I myself find MasterPDF viewer is most capable for my work flow."
I only care about windows for gaming (think that is still an issue in linux for online competitive like overwatch?). So I'll probably be dual booting and mostly want to do things like stable diffusion and play around with llms on huggingface.

I'm the b4nny of bad players, I mean it. Everything he does I do the reverse of. My name's banny actually.
Just to give you a frame of how bad it is here's some statistics I made up. If you see me in a server, I'll have about 50 deaths and 20 kills, those 20 kills you'll only see at the end of the match besides it takes me almost hours to really progress. If you see in a longer server I'll have 50 deaths and 250 deaths, when I first begin it's 11 and 12 deaths. Usually players who have high deaths usually have high amount of kills or some balance to it. My game sense is actually dying a lot, a lot of those deaths are not only me getting destroyed but also me killing myself a lot. It's almost inflated because of that. A lot of these kills are by like only few players. Also on the stats you'll see me with 7 revenges and 2 dominations because all I do is spam and run, and sometimes I shock the people who dominate me into dying. Usually by an assist or me coming out of nowhere when they're low or unfocused. Most of the people who have 1 domination or +1 is me dominated. Those can last for almost hours because if they're focused and if they never appear.
My movement is the best getting me killed because it does all it create a radius to die and slip better. All I do is strafe but I don't do real strafes, instead of evading them it actually helps a person because the bullets will reach me faster. Often I had found walking forward and standing helps me more. Sniper had miss me suddenly standing still because so they're used to me strafing. Than the bad momentum of the strafe pulls me and they headshot me. I don't strafe, I anti-strafe. My strafes kills momentum. It also fucks up with my aim, which I don't have to begin with. So recently it turnout I have low visual spatiness skills, idk the score, below average something, but it basically I'm stupid. I can't visualize shit. I miss every 1st shot I fire because I can't really visualize it. People say to point and click to aim, but I don't even know what my crosshair really is. As Sniper, my headshots are per luck, I have gave up on headshots but sometimes I accidentally headshot people like 2 times if they're low enough. Everything I do is repetition. All my posts has been failures, they're all confused and dazzed because I can't visualize shit. I bump into doors and walls all of the time, it doesn't matter if I did not because my movement itself is confused. How I walk doesn't do anything because all I do is walk. People can just stop and kill me without even trying. I have tried to aim, point to heads, but it goes just above their heads. I'm a master at missing. Can't visualize any of it. Shots do hit sometimes by accident, part of the repetition and not trying.
You can put a toddler with me and the toddler will win the match. Sure I'll get more kills through repetition but the toddler actually has more skill and intelligence.
I know it's all about practice but I can't even do practice. My whole life's a practice. I can't even visualize how it's like out to practice. I can't predict or prepare anything.
You don't have to try to kill me, just going through a corner is how I die most of the time. I often do just stand still trying to think, it doesn't work out. Every visual I make is fake, it's why I miss heads. It's not just the rush because even if I had all of the time it doesn't help. I need to miss my 1st shot because it's the only way I can visualize the other. Demomen do this all of the time but I'm hard stuck to that. Spamming doesn't work because I need visual feedback, so if there's nothing from spamming it doesn't help. You'll find a lot of the people I fight either barely scratched or like their on 30 or 20 health, I can't really kill people in TF2. My mind and intelligence is the enemy of me, often I had done better not even trying. All that movement kills me because I'm going to my doom or I don't know where I'm going. You can see the below average visual spatiness skills in this post. This post also tripped, it's a complete failure, it's all run on and shit. I thought it was better. I honestly been thinking of just quiting because I can't do shit, I'm incapable most of this. Worst part is that I'm in this middle ground of stupidity where I could do something but I'm not. Those deaths help me kill people. I have better kills from being dead than me being alive. Yeah I have ADHD. Can't have patience even if I try to because my patience ends up with me dead already, I have to oversimulate and fail to visualize to play the game.
I seen posts is like you can still have fun, but it's not fun. I can't experience most of the game from being stupid. For normal matches, I spend most of my time in the respawn screen. It's not rewarding or interesting at all. It's the same old thing. Every round happens the same with the same progress. It's not that I'm competitive or anything, it's just that I wish I could have a fuller experience. Also by being stupid, I can't even really see most of my stuff, can't really explore the map or where people is. I can miss something simple as stairs. Most people point down but I don't even bother, I just strafe and fall off it, even when it's an enemy stickytrap. This isn't just TF2, my whole life been a mess like this. It's not just I'm bad at this video game I'm also bad at every other video game. Often a reply is why even play it if it's not fun, but I want what it offers and its experience, to see what happens. Yeah there's fun in it actually. This shit longwinded too and it says nothing. It's not depression or anxiety for this, it's just confused nothing. I can't even say I hate it or don't have fun, there's just nothing. I'm stuck on one linear though. Guess I could create guides on how to suck like me because I have seen guides and follow them to get good, but it's easier to think it in than put it in paper or visualize it. I don't have any place to visualize is the thing, I'll have to try making one but that requires skills which I don't. Not even friction of skills. All I do is mimicry. I have to make skills. I can, it's going take years and decades unless I find something sudden or make myself better and quicker, I have to do something sudden or just wait. I'm on lambo rn. I can't lose any further, the loses do result into wins. There's no real way to isolate or contain any of this. Guess I should just uninstall and quit probably.
Here's a good example of something I'll probably never improve on. So I'm stuck at Jump Academy level IDK 4, issue is that you need to turn when you launch yourself in order to land on the platform over the water. I'm not fast enough and I probably don't bother to visualize it or motorize it well. I done about 58 tries and it been the same result, so close to the edge but I keep falling in the water. I have some solutions but it won't work anyways. I use touchpad for all this but mouse the same problem, it's physical space I have to work with and I don't. People say keep trying but I bet you after the 500th try, I won't get through. That's my skillpeak, I can't get any through other course besides that. It has the kind of stuff I don't have. I'm sure I'll have it but it'll be a while. I don't mean in TF2, I mean IRL. IRL I'm stupid, I think I lack all of these skills. Practicing TF2 won't do shit to help me. I need to somehow reunderstand all of this shit but the time it taking to get that sucks and so how my mind in the gutter. Once I get those skills, maybe I'll get better but when and how myself will, I don't know. For now I'm just stangant. Most of the time I can't even get off my beginning paragraphs, because I have nothing else to say or visualize. A lot of this is just repeats. So for the jump, it's all technical which I don't. I do it in this awful inbetween where the momentum doesn't matter and turn doesn't matter. But here's the thing I'm even misunderstanding it. There's not even point to put effort in writing all this because all of this is written horrible and useless, I do everything wrong. I'm end it here, none of this makes any sense. I often think of writing these down but the issue is that the same problem is here when drafting, it doesn't matter what I do to try fix it as long my visuals suck. I'm not a real person or conscious without those skills. In math and writing, when I get wrong numbers or draw letter wrongs I don't erase them I just x them out and draw another letter. Thing is too I blame on these but clearly there's nothing to blame, also these issues likely aren't even behind it. I seen all of the little technialites all of it and I'm not sure. I been thinking of making visuals to help me but the issue is that it's still in the mind and the visuals to be made have to be used with your mind and skills. So the visuals come out rough and I depend on others. If I want to get good at aiming, I'll have to make spreadsheet of everything but it won't matter as my mind set to garble the visuals of that. I need something abstract which for something technical doesn't really exist. Originally I thought to make something called "Tips for the Visually Impaired" on tf2 or truetf2 but I been trying rationalize it out and there's probably no tips to help me. I seen them already. So now it's just this post. I don't even really show or describe what's up, it's why I'm nonverbal. Even if I do have the right words and visuals it won't show what I'm thinking. Because what I'm thinking is unrealistic. It's why every post had failed, I been trying to do something that's unrealistic. This whole thing is stupid and unrealistic. It's redundancy. It's what I mean by stupid.

This is easily the worst season of apex I've played. I'm trying to play ranked and just get 2 burst by 3 stack preds with a nemesis/charge rifle/ r99. I AM NOT A PRO! So why am I fighting pros and preds? I thought the new brilliant hidden MMR was supposed to make the games fair or competitive?

It all started with the new student.
Aoki Hana was pretty; one could almost say that she was enchanting. With long black hair, large doe eyes, and bubbly smile on her innocent-looking face, she instantly captured the attention from the whole class. Even Masao, my childhood friend, was charmed. He pretended to look outside the window, but I saw him blush after making eye contact with her. I could still remember that day very clearly; it was a warm spring day, with clear blue sky and faint smell of cherry blossom in the air.
The day that my nightmare began.
I paid Hana no mind. She immediately made friends with some other girls, and I thought there was no reason for me to interact with her. We were just classmates, after all. I continued scrolling on my phone, looking at makeup and latest celebrity gossip, you know, the usual girly stuff. That was when I got a text message.
It was weird. In this day and age of messaging apps, no one really texted through SMS anymore.
First!
Umm… What the heck? I was about to exit the app, when several more texts started coming through.
I’m so excited for this! The ML is so cute!
AHHHHH it’s finally here!!!
Get ready everyone! It’s going to be a wild ride!!
They were all from different unknown numbers and seemed to be expressing excitement at something. I was spooked by the amount and the speed at which these weird scam messages were flooding in. I was deleting them one by one when one of the messages caught my eyes.
Just the first chapter but I know that girl Akane is bad news!
That was my name, Akane. I glanced around the classroom, expecting to see one of my friends holding in laughter as they saw my reaction to their little prank. To my surprise, they were all minding their own business, except for one person.
I was not close with Fukuda-san. We barely interacted at all.
But there she was, staring at me from the opposite side of the room, smiling, unblinking.
I got goosebumps. I wanted to confront her right then, but the teacher told everyone to quiet down and started his lesson. During lunch break, I showed the texts to Masao and told him about my suspicion of Fukuda-san, but he just laughed.
“How could it be Fukuda-san? You guys don’t even know each other that well.”
“I don’t know. Why was she staring at me…”
My sentence was cut short as someone bumped into me with full force, somehow knocking the box of juice I was holding out of my hand. As I stabilised myself, I saw Hana fall to the floor with juice poured all over her head.
I was shocked. How did the juice end up on her head of all places? It shouldn’t have been physically possible. The box should have been knocked to the floor, with only a little bit of content spilling, but somehow it looked like the box had completely exploded. Hana looked terrified; her face was flushed red and she looked like she was about to cry.
I bent over to help her up. I was going to apologise.
But for some reason, I just… laughed?
I didn’t know why I did that. The giggles came out of my throat before I could catch them. I covered my mouth with my hands as soon as I realised this, but the damage was done. Masao looked like he had seen a ghost as he helped Hana up.
“Why did you do that, Akane?” He asked.
That was something I wanted to know too. “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to, Aoki-san.”
“It’s okay.” Hana sniffled. “I-I’ll just change into my gym uniform.”
Hana was the one who got juice spilled all over her, but somehow, I felt so humiliated. Everyone in the canteen was looking at the scene I caused in shock, but I noticed that one of the students was smiling, as if the whole thing was entertaining to her. I didn’t even know that person, but her smile sent a shiver down my spine.
All the while, the notification on my phone kept going off in my pocket.
Masao took Hana to the classroom to get her gym uniform. I hid in the bathroom and checked my phone. Surely, there were more mysterious messages coming in.
And so it starts… Pouring juice is so cliché…
If I were the MC, I would have slapped that little fox when she giggled! GAHH SO FRUSTRATING!
I tried to reply to the text, asking who they were, but it wouldn’t let me send. I also tried to search what MC meant, but nothing relevant came up. Who would prank me like this? It must have been someone in my class who was in the canteen, right?
I got out of the toilet stall and washed my hands. Feeling like being watched, I turned around to see a girl standing near the corner of the bathroom, staring at me.
She was smiling.
“What are you looking at?” I snapped. My heart skipped a beat.
“Sorry, Okamura-san.” The girl said.
I gulped. “How do you know my name?”
“Everyone knows who you are, Okamura-san.” The girl answered without blinking.
I couldn’t concentrate for the rest of the day. No matter what I did, there was always someone, somewhere, watching me. Be it a classmate, other student, or even a teacher, they were always there. By that point, I was really freaking out and was counting down the time until this horrible day ended. After school, I told Masao that I would skip club activities and went straight home.
Mom and dad were still at work. As always, it was just me in this unnecessarily big house. Finally feeling truly alone, I locked myself inside my bedroom and tried to make sense of what just happened. The notifications had subsided. I hesitated for a bit, and turned off my phone.
I was trying to do homework when there were knocks on the door.
“Come in!”
“Hey, Akane!” Masao was there in his casual clothes, it looked like he had gone home to change. “Are you busy? Inoue-san let me in…”
I looked past him to Inoue-san, she was the housemaid and also my nanny since I was little. I had known this woman all my life, I even just said hi to her when I came home twenty minutes ago. But as she stood there in silence, just smiling at me, I felt like I was standing in front of a complete stranger.
Masao was clueless as I pulled him inside and locked the door.
“Masao, Did you see that? Why was everyone so weird today?” I gestured to the door, but Masao just sat down on my bed and started to fumble with my stuffed toy.
“So after you left, Akane, I actually ran into Hana again…” He said excitedly.
“Hana? You’ve only known Aoki-san for one day.”
“I know right! But I feel like I have known her for a long, long time!” Masao squeezed my teddy bear. “She’s so kind and interesting. As it turns out, we also like the same manga!”
I had known Masao since we were children. His house was literally next to mine. I could confirm, with the utmost certainty, that Masao was never into any form of manga. I had been inside his bedroom countless times, but never once did I ever find a single manga there. There were only video games and sports equipment.
“What do you mean? You never read any manga.”
“No, I’ve always loved manga.” Masao insisted.
Weird, I thought to myself, but nevermind that, I had more important stuff to focus on.
“Okay. Good luck with that. Can we focus on what I said earlier, please? Don’t you feel like everyone was staring at us today? First, Fukuda-san, then there was the girl in the bathroom, and Tanaka-sensei too. They are all creeping me out!”
“It’s probably just your imagination.” Masao rolled his eyes.
“I didn’t imagine it! Even Inoue-san was staring at me just now!”
“I didn’t notice that.” Masao shrugged.
Masao was clearly not interested in my concern. Some kind of best friend he was. He just went on and on about his little crush. I was annoyed, but I let him stay because I was too scared to be in the same house as Inoue-san alone. When Masao said he really should go home for dinner, I just grabbed his arm without thinking.
“Can’t you stay? Have dinner at my place tonight.”
“I really can’t. Mom’s going to be mad.” He said.
Disappointed, I walked him home. When I was back at my own home again, Inoue-san was done preparing dinner. She was no longer smiling like a menace; she was back to being the kind middle-aged woman I had always known. The dinner was almost normal, but for some reason, Inoue-san refused to sit and eat with me unlike everyday. She just stood there timidly on the side like a servant waiting for the next order from her master.
When I asked why she was behaving weird, Inoue-san said that this was always how it had been. There was definitely something wrong about Masao and Inoue-san. They kept insisting that they had always been doing something I had never seen them done before.
I turned on the phone again before bed. There were some new messages.
Akane you snake! Did you just regret friendzoning him for all these years, just when he’s about to fall for Hana? Too late girl!
I’m glad Masao left her like that lol. From the way she treats her maid, it’s obvious she’s a spoiled little brat.
HANDS. OFF. MASAO.
That idiot Masao! My hands were trembling with anger as I thought to myself. He was the only one who knew about this interaction. Why would he prank me like this? This was way too cruel. Calling me a snake and accusing me of friendzoning him? He must have lost his mind. I was fuming all night and could barely get any sleep. All I could think about was how I would confront Masao the next day.
As expected, Masao and I had a huge fight.
He firmly denied having anything to do with the mysterious texts, so I called him a liar. He then accused me of being unsupportive as a friend and that I was “making up stories and ignoring him.” In the end, I pushed him away and as I was making my way back, I crossed paths with Hana. Judging from how I startled her, she must have heard the whole thing.
I never felt so alone before. Nobody in my classroom could be trusted. I didn’t know who else was in on the prank, but by now I had caught almost half of them staring and smiling at me on different occasions. Masao also gave me the cold shoulder. He only hung out with Hana now, which seemed to slow down the rate at which I was receiving those nasty texts.
Despite me trying to reason with them, or even yelling at them, none of the pranksters would admit to their cruel joke. They just apologised and continued to smile at me. Outside of school was a little better, but not by much. Sometimes, strangers would stare and smile at me as I walked to school. I went to the police, but they were no help. When one of them stopped talking and started to smile, I just bolted out of there.
There was only one explanation for this: if people seemed crazy everywhere you go, that meant it was you who was losing your mind.
I should have taken myself to the psychiatrist, or at least told mom and dad about what I was seeing. But I was too scared that they would start smiling, too. I avoided my parents like a plague and tried to focus on my studies as a way of distraction, promising myself that I would do something about this terrifying hallucination after mid-term.
Weeks passed, and so did the mid-term exams. I was anxious the whole time. I didn’t want the mid-term to be over as I would have to acknowledge my problem just as I promised myself. But I needed to do something about it, and I needed to talk it out with Masao.
I tried to catch him in the classroom, but I was distracted by some commotion by the announcement board. Apparently, the mid-term results were out, although we literally just had the last test yesterday. My school had never publicly announced the score rank of each class like this, as they feared it might bring embarrassment to those students who didn’t do so well. But somehow, they decided to go with it this time.
My name was in second place, which was weird. I never was a studious person and had never even made the top ten in my class. Above me was Hana, she got the highest score…
“Please calm down, Okamura-san!”
Someone touched my shoulder and I jolted. I turned around to see a student smiling at me, and the rest of my classmates were staring at me in horror as I felt a piece of paper crumpled in my hands. The score announcement had been ripped from the board, and I was the one who did that…?
When did I do that? It was like I blacked out for a bit there.
“W-what?” I dropped the crumpled up paper. “I didn’t do that!”
Hana looked concerned. “Akane-chan, please don’t be too upset by the test result. I’m sure you’re still much smarter than I am.”
Huh?
I swore that the moment Hana started talking, the smiling student turned to look at her instead of me. It was the first time I noticed that. I grabbed Hana’s shoulder.
“Aoki-san, no, Hana, I need to talk to you, please!”
The other students started murmuring nervously, but I could tell they were entertained by all this. Masao stepped up as if he was about to intervene, but Hana just gave him her signature sweet smile. “It’s okay, Masao-kun. Akane-chan and I won’t take long.”
Hana followed me to the courtyard while I tried to formulate in my head how I was going to break all of this to her. How come I never thought of this before? It all started on the day Hana was transferred here; surely this whole bizarre occurrence must have something to do with her. I decided to be blunt.
“Hana, have you noticed people staring at you while smiling lately? I mean, Ishida-san was doing that just now when we were at the announcement board.”
Hana tilted her head. “I don’t know what you’re talking about Akane-chan.”
“Come on. You must have noticed it right? They… You think you could just walk in and steal Masao from me?” I screamed.
Wait, no. That was not what I was trying to say. Why-why couldn’t I control myself?
“Akane-chan! It’s not like that! I just wanted all of us to be friends.”
“How dare you! You don’t know Masao like I do! He and I were… Urgh… gahh… STOP TALKING!” I grabbed my own throat in a futile attempt to regain control of my own action. Panic swept over me as I struggled. Hana stared at me with horror; she was on the verge of tears.
That was when I felt a familiar sensation which I had learned to endure so well. Someone was watching us. I looked around the empty courtyard and there it was: a student was hiding behind a tree. She was not moving or blinking, she was just staring at me and Hana, as if she were an inanimate object of sorts.
“There’s one of them right there, Hana. Look!” I pulled Hana towards the tree.
“Please, Akane-chan, you’re scaring me. Stop it!” Hana’s voice was trembling. She tried to stop me with her strength, which was never powerful to begin with.
“I said look at her! Can’t you see it? Are you blind?”
I broke free and pushed Hana to the ground. It wasn’t a hard push, but somehow it sent Hana all the way down into the flowerbed. Hana shrieked and covered her cheek as if I just slapped her, when suddenly her demeanour changed completely.
She started to smile.
No. Not you too.
“Hana?”
“Just play your part. Accept your role.” She said, but it was not in her own voice. It was the voice of an older woman, emotionless, like a robot.
“Who are you? What do you want from me?” I grabbed her collar.
“The Spectators want a happy ending.”
“Stop it, Akane!” Masao yanked me away from Hana. I was in too much shock to be able to defend myself. Almost instantly, Hana stopped smiling and she went back to being who she had always been, a delicate fragile girl who never did anything wrong. She sobbed quietly as Masao helped her stand up.
“You’ve really crossed the line this time.” Masao glared at me. Other students heard the commotion and they started to come out of the building to see what was going on. “What did Hana ever do to you? This is not like you at all.”
“No, YOU were the one who was acting strange. Every single one of you!” I screamed, tears rolling down my face. “How could you pretend that everything was normal? Screw you!”
I got up and ran away as fast as I could. I caught a glimpse of students and strangers staring at me as I sprinted home. It has been four hours now but I refused to unlock my door for anyone, not even Inoue-san. Somehow I felt like I was still being watched, so I closed all the curtains and plucked out the eyes from all my stuffed toys.
The class chatroom was exploding with people talking nasty things about me, as they all witnessed me pushing Hana and grabbing her by the collar. They called me possessed which was truly ironic given what they had done to me.
Of course, the SMS messages flooded in.
You’re done f up girl. You showed the whole class your true colour!!
I’m annoyed with the MC, she should have stood up for herself and beat up Akane
Masao so pretty as always! \swoons**
Akane is the very definition of a narcissistic asshole. She always kept Masao by her side and friendzoned him, then acted like she was entitled to him when Hana came along. Very selfish. I hate a person like this the most.
All these stupid texts made me extremely upset. I couldn’t stop crying at first, but the distress turned into anger very quickly as I realised how absurd these accusations were. I had never had a crush on Masao. I had never been competitive during exams. And I sure as hell, never wanted anything to do with Hana.
As I furiously scrolled through a bunch of texts looking for clues to explain what the heck was going on, one text stood out.
This webcomic is sooooo cliché but I can’t stop reading it! Lol. Akane is a really fun character to hate.
Webcomic? Character? What was this person babbling about?
It took me a split second to realise it, then it hit me like a truck.
I was a character in a webcomic?
Even the idea of it was so absurd, it was almost laughable. But the more I thought about it, the more things started to fall into place. It was a perfect fit. All the pieces of the puzzle came together and formed into a ridiculous, unbelievable revelation.
Yes, all the weird texts I got were very similar to how the comment section of a webcomic might look like. The “story” so far also fitted with typical high school romance plotlines; a charming new girl, a boy having a crush, and a jealous childhood friend. Ever since Hana set her foot into my school, the irresistable power was held over me, forcing me to dance to the rhythm that had been composed by a merciless God.
And as it turned out, God was just some shitty wannabe writer.
The realisation that my entire life was laid in some amateur author’s hand made me so mad in a way I could not describe. I could feel my entire body tense up. Without thinking, I threw my phone at the wall and punched the vanity mirror until it broke. My hand was shaking as blood dripped down into the carpet. As I stared into the broken mirror, my reflection was of a truly unhinged person.
If one of those smiling creeps was here, I guess they would have been satisfied with what they were seeing. After all, I was playing into the character of a crazy villainess pretty well.
You guys wanted me to play my part, to accept my role?
Fine.
Let me show you what a villainess could do then.
