Spinach, sun dried tomatoes, and olives, on a cream cheese and feta white sauce.

Time to eat my feelings with a hot honey drizzle.

Probably should have given the thread a thumbnail.

As for why it's not a video... look, I'm tired, okay?

Before Ballbylon's fall, Physicist's research was well-funded by Tactician, but their relationship was always professional. Since then, Physicist thinks he has a classic pal-around friendship with Tactician, while Tactician is simply too polite to tell Physicist to GO HOME.

Shieldbearer, a refugee child, was taken in by the Cohabitants after his parents succumbed to illness. They were not warm or affectionate, but they were dutiful. It is this quality which informs Shieldbearer's stalwart attitude to defending his adopted home.
December 30, 2025 at 10:30 PM
Itchy's disgrace is a bit anticlimactic - he accused Juggler of numerous crimes, based on shoddy evidence & hearsay. The fall has required Itchy to confront his bias against artists. Their new friendship may yet lead to the truth - his evidence was so close to leading him to the Spendthrift!
December 30, 2025 at 10:30 PM
Who radicalized the Radical? His former commanding officer! Circumstances have forced these two to work together, in a relationship similar to the one between John Rambo & Col. Trautman. Tactician's respect falls on deaf ears; Radical is uninterested in any more of his fancy words.

Both Embedded & Repentant were foreigners to Ballbylon pre-fall. Both are primarily solitary beings who appreciate being alone with their thoughts. Yet there is still a comfort in being alone together. They will never question how the Repentant's regret is related to the Embedded's condition.
December 30, 2025 at 10:30 PM
...or if, say, a certain disgraced deputy were still obsessed with gaining back his reputation, & saw value in revealing why the Shieldbearer nearly died in a botched attack the day of the fall. Even though Itchy has his suspicions, he never tips his hand, & is nothing but admiring towards Shade.
December 30, 2025 at 10:30 PM
Shade was the mercenary that talked Warrior into the mercenary life. He's not crazy about Warrior's friendship with Shieldbearer; the latter was his target pre-fall. This secret would destroy them if ever uncovered, but certainly only the client would be so loose-lipped - whoever that was...

Physicist hates Cogitator the least, but still dislikes him. Their interactions together will seem familiar to anyone who has ever watched 2 characters so overconfident in their narrow expertise that they think it makes them smart in general. In my head they sound like Newman & Frasier.
December 30, 2025 at 10:30 PM
The Makeshift Sisyphus torments himself for past mistakes, while still making them. The Empty Nester, seeing in him a figure in sore need of guidance, begrudgingly gives it. She has no idea he was once a king, and wouldn't rightly care if she did. He will also never confess his gratitude to her.
December 30, 2025 at 10:30 PM
The Cohabitants are neither proud nor shamed by their children, being Quiverfull-types who consider progeny a means to an end. The Flagellant, their eldest child, never got that memo; he became an ascetic to gain their approval. It took the fall of Ballbylon for them to give that approval.
December 30, 2025 at 10:30 PM
Tactician is absolutely enamored with Empty Nester, but knows & accepts she's not interested in him romantically. He still values the time he spends with her - not knowing she bears a secret grudge against him, since her children were often "acceptable losses" in his pre-fall war campaigns.
December 30, 2025 at 10:30 PM
Warrior was a Ballbylon native that became a wandering mercenary; Shieldbearer was a refugee that claimed Ballbylon as his home. The two were bitter rivals prior to the fall. Working together has helped them settle their differences, & the Warrior has a newfound appreciation for his place of birth.
December 30, 2025 at 10:30 PM
Spendthrift was one of Juggler's most enthusiastic patrons before the fall of Ballbylon, which Juggler appreciated but never really acknowledged. They have the most fun together on missions, and Juggler has grown to appreciate Spendthrift's flamboyance.

I've put a lot of my down-time into BALL X PIT. Currently working my way through NG++. As a result, I've started mentally shipping some of the characters. Here's a thread of some of my favorite headcanons:

Have a Christmas 2025

I'm now wholly on the @jennynicholson.bsky.social fan train. Not just for moments like this that are funny in and out of context, but because I like the idea of someone who can afford these experiences presenting them in an engaging way to those who can't. Plus her costumes are fun & cute.

Even Rule 34 has exceptions, it seems.
