Pinkie’s Fantastic Five: Anime Character I’d want as Staff

Hello my little lights, Irina’s Twitter recently reshared some of her older content.. and I am not sure if it is automated or if she randomly selects posts to retweet herself… but  regardless, a post came up that inspired me. Top 5 anime characters I want as personal assistants that one was.  Given the hyperlink I put in there I am pretty sure it is an automated response! Anyway.. I have Staff.. but I can never have enough servants..Uhm I mean Staff.. so here are five fantastic picks for new staff members.

A Maid: Tohru

For the Powerful Women tag Irina sniped Tohru as my answer… and Summer’s as well and I ended up picking Rem as a roommate instead.. but in this new list I can finally admit that in hindsight I do like Tohru more then Rem. Points for Irina though for having such a objectively true opinion! She is more fun to hang out with, she is way more openly gay then Rem is/might be and she comes with an adorable baby dragon, that I do not want to lewd but just feed her living things and see them vanish in her gaping maw in one big swoop! That alone could keep me entertained for days.

She can even bring Kobayashi  , I do not need to engage with her romantically .. though a dragon and a prin…. I mean the manager would be an interesting couple and  I bet we could hit it off.. I am fine either way though as Tohru loves her job and doubles as air transportations. I live on an island but I get seasick very easily but not airsick so this would be a great way to circumvent annoying little troubles.  I could play with Kanna, geek out with Fafnir, drink with Kobayashi, Cry with Elma and ignore the other one..but I bet her assets will draw in a whole lot of business to Paradise. All she needs to do is loaf around on the beach!

I do need a maid because my pool boy keeps inviting people to pee in my pool.. I know that “(definitely don’t) Pee in the Pool.. just means Pee in the pool.. but it has been manager proofed. . Sunny while great at his job.. is only great at it when he does it…which is completely random!  Cabins might get cleaned, or it might not happen and people get a fish in a bucket as an apology instead. I love them both and the content they provide is swell but I need a backup plan. Besides..I am not very clean myself. I would not get down to the floor and clean it! I am so stiff I probably could not get up! Too much soapy stuff also makes my hands all dry and scaly! .. So better just use a dragon! I don’t think they will complain about dry skin.. Maybe Elma would.. but not Tohru! So she is a great Maid.. an okay mode of transportation and a powerful means to defend the island.

A Singer/Pianist: Maki Nishikino

I got Barry Manilow’s bill for booking him each night and let me tell you.. that guy is NOT cheap!  Of course on his day off we have Jimmy Buffet on Paradise but let’s just say that Copacabana is getting old fast for me!  I do it because Winstof keeps yelling for encores and Manilow is getting old enough that he forgets he already gave an encore. I know HER NAME was LOLA and I KNOW she was a showgirl.. Now shut the fuge up Mannilow!  I am not even paying Jimmy Buffet… he just shows up!  Cheeseburger in Paradise.. my touchie!  So it may be a great idea to have our own little artist on the fictional payroll.  Someone who can just play piano during dinner time or bring us singing entertainment in the evening at the bars.  She can also play at my cast…house.. yes A cast house.. is a house thats like a castle.. I totally don’t have a castle!  Ignore that!  Either way a musician is a great idea to have. 

Finally, Barry can take a break!

Maki is an ideal pick because she comes with lots of outfits to fit every mood. She has sung in an idol ensemble, solo and in a tinier girl group so she is very experienced in any form of singing, meaning she has great range. She is skilled at playing the piano and is a sing a song  writer, which also means she wont be running out of songs and we can innovate our repertoire and even play around with the seasons. Snow halation in winter, Natsuiro Egao de 1,2 jump in summer and  a lot of Aishiteru Banzai.. the anthem of Paradise.

Lyrics that roughly translate as “Smile when you’re sad, let all the sadness blow away, because if you can keep smiling, the weather will change, skies will clear, even if you are unsure , the road to happiness will be revealed under blue skies.  Some days it might rain, but remember that this water will also nurture the little tree that is our dreams. Cheers for Love!  It gives the courage to never give up! Now let’s enjoy the present! Cheers for the love, let’s wave goodbye to yesterday, let’s move forward.  Which is a very motivational song! And it’s pretty easy to learn even in Japanese!  Cheers for Love! Singer Hired!

A Tailor: Nui Harime

So is it weird I want a homicidal character as Staff?!  I am not sure, I mean it’s not my dad Nui killed so do I care?!  I don’t think I do.. I mean he was the dad of anime protagonist anyway.. that’s a death sentence either way. So if she had not murdered him it would be a tragic accident,  or a mysterious disappearance. She had to do it by a force greater than herself. Nui is very polite to the people who she serves so as the Royal Couturier of Paradise I think I am in the safe zone.  Did I say Royal.. I mean grand.. her title will just be Royal to avoid confusion with her function in Revocs! Either way Nui is a person that is very compatible with me.. we both love pink, are kind of childish and  are morally slightly more flexible than some of our peers. But hey at least we create our own happiness!  If I see the style of outfits she makes for girls, except for that bancho one.. I love them all Nonnon and Ragyo get such cool outfits from here and her own is cute as a button so that is a thing.

Now you may wonder, why would a tropical resort need a tailor! Well do you know how hot it is in a tropical Paradise.. you have one outfit on for your day at the beach and then one for the night life, equalling to two outfits per day. I don’t launder every day so I have to have a lot of outfits on Paradise.. if I am in my moth-form I also tend to have a nervous tick where I chew on my clothes… except… it’s not just chewing, it is also eating my clothes. Besides.. I can’t host a ball at my place and show up in the same dress  as before.. it’s all duplicate dresses of each other since I still AM an anime character in a way.. but just know each dress you will see on me is always a different one .. once I employ Nui! To this day I have never ever had my white socks turn pink and I am not about to start.. mostly because I am not sure if Tohru would do all laundry.. so just to be safe a personal tailor could be neat. Tailor Hired!
Who.. could also be a good bodyguard!

A Chef: Alice Nakiri

Those who read my Halloween story know my current chef has a bit of a drinking problem! I blame Irina, but hey she comes here for the cheap cooking wine and shares it with the chef once service is done. Then I have to find whatever bush he has passed out and sober him up. It’s just a hassle so I might as well replace it with a bit of a fancier chef that works well with people of stature. The food of Paradise has to be fancy because competition between resorts is fiercer than ever.  Even though Paradise is is only semi fictional still people seem to think they can’t come over to my imaginative island to hang out. 

Alice , kind of looks like the original Irina model..or at least the one I knew as the original.. it’s the white haired one at least.. I may be able to use my chef as a marketing tool by trending it is a much more popular blogger than I am AND she is a chemist…which means that even if I cant fool people there is definitely  a secondary source of income here! I mean she only has to be a chef at lunch and dinner time.. the drunkard can still fry some eggs.. that means Alice can cook something else in the morning or help me teach a few things about high society! She is so useful!

In terms of character Alice seems to walk a fine line between high standards, yet also prefers it if she has the moral high ground while also not shying away from being selfish or petty if it is in her own best interest. I admire that, Alice is tactical and a shrewd business woman.  If you haven’t been able to tell yet, we burn a lot of cash on Paradise and cash management isn’t great on Paradise so far. 

We have Periwinkle who burns a lot of money on very bad games, Kuro who tries every pot noodle in existence, I am not sure if Sunny even knows what money is and Nui seems to have expensive taste. So does Alice.. but she comes from money and she isn’t  unwilling to share it if it improves her working conditions! She is a good team player that is quirky enough to make her interesting. She is super pretty as well.  Which is kind of neat because Alice seems like the chef that really wants to introduce herself to fancy guests at the resort. I need someone like her who can be a bit serious and shape up.. speaking of which this also brings me to my final pick.

An Attendant/Personal Assistant : Marcarita

So any angel from Dragon Ball Super would make for a great personal assistant but I chose the one with the Twin Tails. First of all I could have picked Whis for having the pink uniform but I find him a bit too patronising to his boss. Besides that I feel like someone named after whiskey would become chummy with Indigo! A personal assistant would need to get alone with me.. so that’s why a female angel is a better option. Vados might vocalise her concerns about me to much and makes me more insecure than I need to be. Besides I am not sure if I like Calvados! 

Marcarita is based on the Margarita drink.. and that is a pretty girly drink and I like it! Besides that her personality is like hyper formal will make her look very posh! She would treat me like a little princess in my service and always with the utmost respect. She is used to dealing with clowns and she is fairly strict so she can bring some moral fiber to the rest of the staff.. while allowing me to do whatever I want.. because of hierarchy! She will respectfully advise me though which is a good thing!

Why do I need an Attendant?! Well.. uhm… she can take some tasks away from me and let me nap a bit. If Whis and Beerus are the less formal variant iI am sure this angel can pick up the moral slack of the rest of the staff. She can shape them up a bit while I go play weird video games to provide you with some new content!  It also is a bit of a status symbol and that means if Karen wants to speak to me I have some emotional leverage. I’ll have you know I am important enough to have an angel as a personal assistant madame, your petty complaints are beneath me! 

I could use my assistant to let go of some things,which is good because I am a worrywart!  It’s also doesn’t conflict as much as a butler and a maid. Because I can just let Tohru serve me my food while Marcarita can manage my phone for me. You know do all the text messages, help me be more social on Twitter.. do dailies in my mobile games. So much possibilities! Wipping Paradise back into shape while giving me more nap time! This is an angel I really need to hire! Plus I could try some angel pick up lines!

Time for me to take a nap.. after all this work finding people who would work for me! Now with the staff expanded, it will be time for me to upgrade my tropical hut to something a bit more worthy of a person of my stature! So in our next post we will be looking at some amazing video game real estate! Untill then… Shine on my Little lights! Oyasumi!

Happy Halloween: Pinkie Closes off Halloween Month!

With the weekend coming up and the upcoming weekend I am once again busy moving so I guess this is a wrap up post for Halloween Month!  What have we seen, what have we done and what is next?! And of course this post is mostly to wish everyone who celebrates it a Happy Halloween! 

What has Pinkie done?!

Let’s begin with a little look at what we have done!  The past month everything I did was a bit in the theme of spookiness!  We watched weird Horror movies, we played a  bunch of scary games and Watched trough the first half of Yamishibai! I had one more movie and Season the anime planned but the fatigue of moving really got to me!  I just wanted to move into a big blanket and stare at the tv a bit for the past two weeks after I was done with all my tasks.  Forgive me!  Post-wise I have done a few interesting things this month and to some stuff you really reacted well! I will highlight a few! Note that I do not think these are the best! I do not prefer any of my posts over others, that would make other posts cry! I simply highlight a few posts based on my favourite “events”. Click on a cauldron to revisit a post you might have missed.

Halloween-month Started with a personal account of some ghost stories I experienced first hand! It got the most posts this month and had a nice number of audience participation! A really nice post to do and thanks everyone for the support!  Another Geeky Lifestyle tag post I really liked was this month’s gadget post. Still I am very happy with the love on the spooky stories post!



This month’s anime tag introduced me to the series Yami Shibai which had its ups and downs but the first season is something I can definitely recommend.

I only wrote one fiction this month which was Halloween in Paradise!  A small story set in the fictional universe of Paradise Island where the manager has a small horror adventure! It was great fun making images for that post! 

Video games I played plenty! I played some classics like Castlevania IV which is always a pleasure to playthrough! My favourite playthrough thought was Call of Cthulhu, Pinkie loves herself some cosmic horror! Plus a game based on a famous tabletop roleplaying game it was bound to sit well with me. 

Movie wise you voted for me to watch some weird movies and I really do think I delivered. Rubber, Hausu and Killer Condom all were quite bonkers but only one post features the entire movie for you to watch! Killer Condom is definitely the best weird horror movie I watched this month! 

Finally Pokémon! I did a fair bit of Pokémon this month but the post that got the best response by far was me designing my own Pokémon based on the Dark Universe film monsters.  I got so much comments on that post! It was truly amazing and it will definitely bring it back in the future!

 What has the Staff done?

Kuro wrote another zinger of a horror story about a village plagued by a very mysterious and powerful evil! If you haven’t checked it out you definitely should!

Sunny did a post about a very fun board game that is like a tavern brawl between D&D like characters! I read it and I certainly want the game after reading! So if you play board games you should super check this one out.

Indigo is sitting on a few big projects so in the upcoming months I am sure we can see a story about his O.C.  He also had some ideas of posting in the Warhammer universe! So that could be very cool as well!  He did some amazing prepwork and sometimes that is the most important work. Also he kept the resort pretty safe!

What have we seen?

I will be honest! This month I have been short on time so I have not visiit as many blogs as I would like! I tried a few routes which it took very well.. it seems to get a bit lost with the tiles in the middle.  There are a few things I would like to highlight though! Click on the pictures to link to the post!

First of all GeekGirlJoy finished a project this month that I am pretty sure I inspired her to do in my quest for the truest pink!  So I have been a muse and I inspired something that completely goes above my comprehension of coding but I have used it to find the analogue colour of my avatar and some design elements! Which resulted in a slight shift in colours. The pink on my site used to be #ff87ED and it changed to #ff89CD which is a lot closer to my avatar! Great job joy!  I am happy I could be a muse!

Scott from mechanical Anime reviews started this amazing project where he interviews content creators across the net using his reach to shout out there people and unify the community! That is pretty amazing and I really commend him for that! I have seen others do something similar but Scott REALLY makes it about the other content crreator and not so much about himself. An effort I can very much appreciate.

I could not find a real featured image.. so this is how I imagine Scott Imagined this!

Of course Senpai made a great post as well.. but when does she not! For Halloween she discussed Urban Legends in Japan and while I was  to tired to comment something insightful when I read it it left a great impression on me!  If you haven’t checked it out you should!

Blogging Bestie Summer found a great place to watch old horror movies and in this Halloween month I think that is a pretty amazing discovery, love your classics! So yeah a great homage to movies that should get some tribute in this month!


Naja is a great writer and possibly an even better devourer of Otome games! As my most recent Bubble post I made already showed , monsters and be very sexy!  Now she makes a much better case of this then I ever could and it even includes Lesbian Vampires… I like those the best! … Now that sounds much lewder than it is..at least in my case. Great post to check out!

What is next!

So what can you expect in the coming month?! Well I will probably take a week’s vacation from blogging after this post goes live, to settle in in my new house a bit , explore the neighbourhood, show my friends the new place and get a bit of rest in my system. After that November I will return to the usual island content! Watch some movies, play some games watch some anime and what not! 

What most likely WILL change is the Saturday Morning Anime Adventure, those reviews I will probably spread across the week. Short write up reviews alongside the regular content!  Instead of the entire anime post on Sunday, I  instead will use the Sunday to recap the week!
It will include a personal life update, a summary of all my posts by genre, Staff posts highlighted and a shout out to al Kofi Supporters of the week . I will most likely also highlight some content of other blogs as well but I haven’t fully made up my mind yet on how to shape it. I think by doing the episodic content this way I put the pressure of content creation a bit for myself and I still get to let people get a nice summary post if that is the format they prefer.. they just need to click once or twice now.  Something very close to this post.. with less future stuff!

November will be a bit lighter and looser in content because besides my  moving ,there is also my birthday, plus a lot of social and bureaucratic stuff that needs to be done surrounding my move.  Within the restrictions of the current society of course! However starting in December I will introduce official theme months for the blog. This can be anything from Retro to Sci-Fi and from Horror (Like this month)  to “Pirates” .  Staff posts are exempt from the theme but as for me I discovered that writing in a theme , like last month has given me so much joy that I will do it on a regular basis.  Whether I will do it every other month, monthly or quarterly remains to be seen but it’s in the works!


Other than that I will see what time brings us and teaches us! For now I will enjoy settling in my new home and taking a short break! Maybe you don’t even notice  and content picks up again right after this weekend ( In which for sure I will have no content because I have to throw out the final stuff out of my old apartment then) I do think I will be gone for a week or so though but no promises! I will see you all very soon! Happy Halloween!
Love, Hugs and Kisses

Pinkie!

STAFF Introduction: Sunny The “Cabana Boy”

My dear Island Guests! Today we introduce our third and for now final STAFF member to our team. As in these are all the people who applied! You are of course always welcome! So who will join the team on this sunny day?! Why it’s Sunny of course! Sunny is our Cabana Boy. A Genderfluid biassed towards male who oftenly calls himself a Demi-Boy! Please give him a warm welcome!

<Disclaimer> Only the first picture for now is officially Sunny’s official art, another tool is used to make it.. more might come later. The extra images might deviate a bit but I wished to treat him the same as other STAFF Members <End of Disclaimer>

The Cleanest Cabanas

Sunny is a bit special as he is not the traditional avatar of his writer! He is but one avatar! He in fact is not even a human! He is a pixie! Recognisable by his Dragonfly wings and relatively short height of only being one and a half  meter of  five foot tall. He really is a chibi of sorts. His skin is kissed by the sun, while his hair is bleached by it. He prefers to wear his hair shaggy without much product in it. He goes for a very natural look. His golden dragonfly wings almost make it seem like he is radiant like the sun itself. His signature look is a fully yellow haiwain shirt he wears over a white T-shirt. He wears very short hand cut jeans and waddles around the resort barefooted. If he is not fluttering around chasing after little yellow bugs that is.

If you ask Sunny what is his function at the resort he will claim he is the Cabana boy! When you ask the manager , she tells you she hired him as an interior and exterior attendant. While both are vague the manager hired him to clean the pool, mop the hallways of the main building and clean up the cabana’s our guest can stay at.  In practice Sunny is found way more in at the pool or in the gardens then inside Cabanas or even the main resort. Yet he manages to keep everything sparkly clean. It is clear though he is an outdoor person.  His preferred pronouns are he and him as he personally finds they or them to be to much akin to the royal we. He is a down to earth Pixie that Sunny is! For the most part.. he claims he is a magical broom closet!  Sometimes he takes people there and once they get there they just get a slight sprinkling of fairy dust.. It soothes you and as you listen to what he has to say it takes you away to some magical story worlds. Like a little fantasy world – where the Tanuki King is waging war on the Chinese Astrology Animals, or Fluff Bunnies tend their Sacred Dandelion. Of course manager Pinkie has not experienced this yet because as demi-sexual as she is .. she is scared that the Broom closet is code.. after all you know what they say about cabana boys!

Back in the day, the Cabana Boy was basically a pool boy but was generally some super cute, sexy, got a six pack young Cuban male that all the middle aged white women drooled over and sometimes had an affair with over their vacation but he wasn’t someone you could be seen with in public you know? So if you ask, he’ll say he’s the Cabana Boy and grin winningly. It is unknown if Sunny does those Cabana boy things.. or what other powders might be mixed in with that pixie dust but the manager asks him to put these stories of his world into words on her computer screen. Just to be safe that she doesnt get lucky! So regardless if you want to go into the broom closet with you .. or you want to read through the story on your tablet while at the pool..sunnies stories are there for you to enjoy. While you are at the pool however Sunny may walk up to you and begin to talk about interesting bits of trivia about Japan, folklore, anime, games, animals and nature.So that is plenty of content this pixie can offer.

Sunny is a helpful but easily distracted fellow, he will fetch you a drink while you are at the pool to lazy to move, he will change your light bulb if you’d be to scared in the dark and he would take out the batteries of the smoke detector in your room, so you can light a candle or burn incense without you setting of the alarm. Indigo finds this irresponsible and sometimes wants to scold him  but after covering him in pixie dust the two they wander off together. Oftenly to go fishing!.. Or well they reel in fish.. give them a name then cast them back in. Unlike Indigo however , Sunny seems to recognise all the fish.

If he isn’t in the mood for fishing he is oftenly helping Kuro clean their glasses, talking about Daffodils or Butterflys. Fake sneezing so they can accidentally get a few colourful sprinkles on Kuro to make them look just a bit brighter and help them when their mood is at their darkest. He likes to help people find their way and because of this he often carries a little lantern. Which he borrows out to people when they feel they are stuck in the dark. Inside is a bunch of warm emotions and what seems like sunlight which guide people back to a happy place. For this reason he can be rather friendly with the manager when she tries to over decorate the island with pretty lights and sparkles again.  They can make the place so bright it even feels sunny at night.. and go as extreme as Pinkie putting her pink sparkles on Sunnies fairydust.. or Sunny wrapping pinkie’s coloured lights all around his guidance lanterns. Sunny also does some heavy lifting! Something the manager is utterly incapable of! So yes these two bounce off of each other very well!

A very Sunny Summer

The writer behind Sunny, is my blogging bestie Summer, by some of you better known as Foovay. She is  the reason Pinkie believes in real life pixies! Because.. if they are real Summer certainly is one. She claims to be one and I believe her. Just for all you sceptics out there interpret it as you want. A pixie and an alien together would make for a great anime!
My bestie has been around this earth for 29  years longer than I have, and she got married when I was three. So there is life experience and geek experience which will without a doubt result in some amazing stories from Sunny. She is Pagan as well, which I am pretty sure is like a Witch of sorts.. so she is a Pixie Witch.. which makes me think I need to add something to my Alien! What should I pick up? Let me know in the comments! I can’t stay behind my Blogging Bestie of course! As an american she isn’t going to help me much in my quest in finding all variants of English spelling but she lives in an RV so Imagine she is actually Miss Frizzle’s sister! The magic RV! She even scored herself a younger husband.. being eight years younger. Her husband’s health is a bit frail which at times can prevent her from writing so please be patient.. Good content will come from this amazing person.

Unlike Pinkie, Summer is quite an adventurer. She loves to  kayak, bike, hike and to travel. Kayaking will make me very sick.. and thus will probably kill me! (I get seasick from even swimming to long or standing on anything that doesn’t move solidly). While I am dutch I wrecked several bicycles. One time I was biking in the woods for gym class in school and we had to hop a tree.I woke up from a gym teacher talking at me.. I never felt so dizzy and when I saw what shape the bike was in I was so scared I would have to pay the school a new mountain bike..so doing it again would probably kill me. Hiking I kinda like.. but once I got myself trapped as I could not descend a hill with my footing.. so I ruined my clothes by sliding myself off.  I am not made for adventure.. but that is what makes me appreciate Summer so much. Having been an artist, animal control officer, a vet tech, an exotic dancer and  of course a writer she had a very interesting career which no doubt can lead to some very inspirational tales.  I am the NEET princessy girl locked in an attic because she is so frail and should not go out!  Summer is like the person who throws pebbles at my windows so we can sneak out and we end up Isekaid somehow! With her being like a very powerful fighter and me being the OP mage or healer.  Which again is neat because I really detect such an energy I can bounce off with her! So a great addition to the team.

There are still more colours to give away

Pink, Black, Blueish purple, Yellow!  Those are the colours of Paradise right now. With three people I can rely on I am extremely content! I did not think I would be having this many people here already! Yet if you too want a fun team to write with, if you are looking to blog without having to actually need to  do the whole backend! If you just want to write and have fun! You are also welcome to Paradise. As long as what you want to tell us is remotely geeky, we do not require you to have the skill for writing! Paradise is welcome to everyone.. We look at people with the drive to share their passions!  Kuro, Indigo and Sunny will undoubtedly produce some amazing content as we go along but so can you!  Passion and geekiness is what unites us and what will make you amazing as well! So if you are out there know that you will always be welcome… provided you can abide by the terms and conditions stated here.. As long as there are colours there will be a place for you!

In this welcoming spirit I would like you all to invite Sunny to the team. Have a chat with them on Twitter, leave something nice here in the comments or visit their own website! There are some sweet little posts there as well. I am not much of a mobile phone gamer, (not that I hate mobile games I just hate grinding in general)   but she sure tempts me with those cat and horses games.. and weirdly horses scare me a bit… not like really but if it’s not a pony I will keep my distance  a bit.. Even though I love unicorns.. I do know why though! When I was young a classmate of mine got bit by a horse right in front of me. His cry of pain was so intense I never forgot that pained cry.. So I am kinda scared to pet them. Okay I got sidetracked there! Anyway show some love! Stay tuned for some awesome content.. and allow this Sunny Summer to warm you up with wholesomeness..or possibly cute stories with some serious gruesome undertones!  It will be glorious either way! So show this new author some love!

As for my words to Sunny, whom I will address in their avatar form. Time for me to welcome him to the island! Dear Sunny! You are already such a fleshed out character, you have quirks and traits and that just shows how capable you are behind the keyboard as well. You have this energy and experience that makes me better and more peppy so I am incredibly excited to have you here! You were there for me for quite a while now and you helped me trough a major low!  You are like my duracell battery.. or my g-fuel.. (I think at least I still have no idea what G-Fuel actually is) . You can be the orange juice in every cocktail and bring that sunshine and pixie magic to everyone. I have zero doubts that you will fit in great and compliment the team greatly. I love the stories I have written of you so far and to share some is actually quite amazing. I may have gotten quite the amount of Sunshine bloggers alive in my one year career, you Sunny have already truly brightened my blogging experience! Now even more so!  Welcome to Paradise and thank you so much for being here!

STAFF Introduction: Indigo the Head of Security

He-he-here we go! He’s finally here! To write stuff for you! If you check this page! You can join us too!  Put your hands together! I want you to clap! As he’s introduced.. with this cool rap! Huh! Indi! INDIGO! Indi! Indigo is here!

One Hell of A Security Guy

Points for you if you got what that intro is based on! Clearly I am in a cheerful mood today and that is with good reason! I get to announce that my long time friend now going by the name of Indigo has joined the fray! I have known him for longer than I blog and as per today he will be on the fictional Payroll of the fictional Paradise, receiving fictional income for his fictional position as my head of security!  I think you know what his task is! That’s right he is trying to save you from fictional treats.. like pickpockets and pirates. He will do this by creating some amazing characters in his original stories that will walk around on Paradise  keeping you safe.. but he is also quite skilled in playing some video games and telling  you about them! It will keep you distracted but also that nasty pickpocket! How neat huh! If I put up to much party lights, he is also skilled enough in the electrical work so that we don’t all die in a blaze of fire and colourful glass so but yeah mostly he is just here to write his own things.  I bet he can tell you amazing tales set in the Fallout or Warhammer 40K Universe. 

Indigo is a fresh face on WordPress, with their only experience so far leaving likes and a few comments! So his content style will be a surprise to us all! We can expect some game reviews and fan fiction from him. I suspect we will mostly see character driven stories about warriors wielding  swords and armors. With an edgy grimdark twist. He’s probably also the guy who will keep me in check! “Pinkie have you read that comment yet?” ‘Don’t forget to reply to that person who @dded you on Twitter” If you are angry and mean.. I will also send him after you! If you think I am ignoring you.. you can send him after me! Perfect balance.
He is a  hard working confidant sort of speak who has his own.

I know for sure he is combining the  world of my tabletop and videogames to tell you an unique “what if story”  Yet he also talked about not one but two game reviews!  He mostly plays  shooting games.. but also the deeper rpgs and Soulsbornes! Sometimes even stuff  in between… as long as he gets to kill. I made him play Ducktales though! For breakfast he rips and tears into Deathclaws and in the afternoon he does scientific research how much fatboy mini nukes it takes to kill a demon. His knowledge of weaponry is also impressive so if you like to discuss Alucard’s guns.. our security officer will be here for you! You can recognise him by his unique look. Donning his Indigo outfit with pink belts!  Because when we play or work together, he always does something with pink! Such a good guy! That coat is a tad edgy though!

How I met Indigo

To introduce you a bit more to this man I shall tell you the story of how we met. In fact I have talked about some elements he brings to the table. I met Indigo trough Star Wars roleplay.. like four or so years ago. I was playing a Sith woman named Sy’ra  who felt like friendship is magic and the path to Power in the Sith.. starting out as a rival for a Zabraki love, soon Sy’ra won over his character Lelianne because of her sly and cunning ways. Which later blossomed into a nice and warm friendship between the two characters. My character formed a house of her own which resulted in a private Skype-group for friends and family members. Indigo was in that chat!  As time passed we bonded and enjoyed playing a lot. His characters a Mandalorian clan leader named Kraleth became my security officer and his daughter Lelianne, became Sy’ra bodyguard.. and they even had a short romance.. but Lelianne saw herself to much as a tool. Living only for Sy’ra. My Sith taught Lelianne to love herself for those who can’t love themselves and see themselves as items only can never be truly loved either.   It was a lesson Indigo also had to learn still. Indigo is a bit of an anime edgelord. The type that will sacrifice themselves to safe you.. even if the treat is a flew splashes of rain… because dying for someone is cool!  This mentality brought Indigo in trouble  a few times as a roleplayer. This selfless trait is a great thing for a security officer to have though! And he has experience with the job! Nothing will phase him anymore!

Indigo is a fair bit younger than me as well.It’s not like I could be his mom (there is only one person in my online tabletop, which by the way is not the D&D that stopped, that’s young enough to be my son). He might be able to tell me what G-Fuel is.. even though I never hear him talk about it.. and those who drink?! (it’s a drink right?) usually talk about it so I am unsure.   I bet he would love the Vinland Saga anime as he really likes dark and Military themes in stories. So I think that will tell you a bit what type of stories we can expect. I always tease him for the sheer amounts of edge he has in him. His coffee cups have bullets and skulls on them and he listens to so much metal that if you have a magnet on you it will stick to his ears… if there aren’t people with lots of piercings around or a living suit of armor of course. He’s the type of guy who drinks their coffee black just because it looks cooler in front of the others, but that also means there is more cream and sugar left for me!

For little over a year now I have made a tabletop game on mondays, that is basically an anime tabletop.. people can create their character and from all known media they have to fight against treats from other worlds.. like Hol Horse  from Jojo’s Bizarre Adventures or Dracula from the Castlevania games but also 4 world leaders and their Eldritch Horseman.. they employ to summon a big Eldritch evil upon this world.  During their journey the group can encounter characters from all across anime. For example they are working with Krul Tepes from Owari no Seraph and they have a rivalry with Perona from One Piece.. who works for Elon Musk to use her Horro Horro fruit to change the little Eldritch baby the has into a ultimate weapon to stop the greater evil.. at the cost of a few cities. Indigo here plays the seventh courier from Fallout New Vegas.. a fictional character that was supposed to be there as well..but ended up Isekaid..into our world.  As this game requires very much communication to build your character (as you can literally build whatever you want)  Indigo and I started to talk more and more and our friendship became tighter. 

When he asked to stream a few games in our Discord group I noticed how he would lack the platform there to show the games he is interested in.  Regardless how much I love Indigo.. Warhammer stuff is completely wasted on me and the one that is interested.. is only so when it’s convenient to them! So that’s why I thought! Maybe writing in a place like mine could let him tell those stories to a bit wider of an audience. Also based on some follower names I score surprisingly well  with those with edgy nicknames… so maybe you will like his style as well. His different palette compared to  mine when it comes to stories and games can make us cover such a wide arrangement of stuff. I feel he can compliment me very well! I will still be the best Pinkie.. but Indigo will provide the contrast to make my pink look even brighter.  Indigo hasn’t blogged before and is fairly new to WordPress so I want you all to give him a warm welcome! To Indigo, you will have to socialise a bit.. so use the WordPress reader to find yourself some Warhammer, or Soulsborne blogs, take a peek at the people welcoming you and be an awesome tomodachi for the amazing people in the community! A security guy can be scary but make sure to let them know you are secretly just a big cuddly bear . 

Even More STAFF to come?!

I could tell you plenty of stories about Indigo but instead I rather direct you to his Twitter, and ask you to wait and see what their posts will bring. Indigo is from Finland so like me he is a non native English speaker. I assume that means like me they are schooled in UK english so expect to see his top five FAVOURITE guns in video games and not his top five FAVORITE 40k Races, but I might be wrong here!  For those who think we spell Colour wrong I got good news! The third person that applied to write on this place is American! So we will be evenly distributed then.  I am still looking for a Canadian and an Australian to join so I can get all English variants gathered!


If you want to write but don’t want to maintain your own blog or if my blog covers topics you can’t put on your own website feel free to apply under STAFF wanted.  As long as you do not expect to be paid and as long as you respect everyone like I ask everyone to respect you things are totally going to be fine and you will always be good enough! I went through this phase myself.. where I felt like the lesser writer. Maybe I am the lesser writer to most.. but Indigo as well as Crow and Fred helped me remind me that no one writes like me.. Somewhere there is a guy.. in my case like Indigo.. who will like that style and the same goes for you! I wish for Paradise to be a platform for all of you who want to share your thoughts in a more low key way!  We are a holiday resort!  Ambition is for when you get back to real life! This is all about fun! So if you want to share stuff you feel you can not  share elsewhere.. feel free to apply even if your not Canadian or Australian! We will make you feel welcome.. and with that please everyone leave a comment to welcome Indigo! I want him to feel right at home!

As for my own words to Indigo! There is little to say I have not said yet in our chats! I am so happy for everything you did for this blog, for me so be able to offer you this platform for your thoughts makes me really happy. I know we have vastly different opinions on media but that is what makes this work so much I think! I have every bit of faith in you! I have seen your voice in Roleplaying and your writing and I know this is something unique to you. With a dash of Warhammer, a Dash of Hellsing but also a healthy does of old warrior values and an appreciation of tech I am 1000% sure you will add something new to this blog! You might have to check if there are blogs around in your posse using WordPress reader but I also think quite a few people around really will be interested in your voice so never be afraid to let it shine! Be yourself.. no matter how much flack for being to edgy I give you for it! It’s all in good spirit! Friends teasing each other and all! You are a dear friend and probably my most supportive friend..at least when it comes down to this hobby! So I am super thrilled to have you! Welcome to the team!  Welcome to Paradise! Also could you please look into that Yellow looking fellow. I was walking in the lobby today when I faceplante… I mean gracefully landed after tripping on a yellow bucket. He had a mob with him as well but he was just staring outside smirking at some daffodils….weird.

Indigo has no Kofi page to support yet! However if he ever does decide on doing this a banner to support him will show up on his own posts! All writers have their individual Kofi Pages, though Pinkie’s one is also used to maintain the website. Keep an eye out for ways to support Indigo and for now just make him feel welcome! Time for me to melt some more! And see you all very soon!
