#Mod is a scatterbrained person

[animatronic-assistant]

You seemed very interested in Feige- that’s her name, right?

Would you like to rp her with me? I’ve been wanting to use one of my different characters anyways, if you had an idea on which one you’d like to see :p

Especially since the rp involving the mafia au never happened lmao

Mod: I'm sorry!!! Yes I wanna RP with you. I meant to send ask but I couldn't think a an opening!

Feige is my God character so to speak. Everyone has that one character with godlike powers and Feige is mine.

Maybe Songbird could run into our assassin while she is fleeing some would be kidnappers later. (I love how inspiration hits now.... -_-)

SHOP UPDATE! 08 Jan 2024

My current update for the shop! Apologies on not having updated here, as of this moment, a little over 50% have been shipped out and received by customers before the holiday season! My shop is being handled by Atlass, dear friend and trusted mod of many many zines who is US-based, because I'm unable to (due to home and personal reasons). Worry not, she's being compensated for her work with a cut of the profits. She's also working on at least 1000+ orders (both from zines + my shop) and has had to manage my scatterbrained process. Delays are on my shoulders not hers, she's gone above and beyond to ensure your packages are safe and secured on their way to you. My utmost apologies for the delays, my thanks for your patience and understanding, and I truly am excited for these little guys to come home to you. <3

[taterswithranch]

Hey. Sorry you had to learn about zero.

The rest of the team doesn't care, and the discord fans are trying to make our own versions of Muzix. Keep doing what you're doing, and I'm sorry if you feel your effort was wasted

Sorry, just so that I don’t get it mixed up because I’m scatterbrained hdhdjk, but the team doesn’t care about finishing the mod or people still making Muzix Medley fanart? I don’t wanna accidentally misinterpret it. And if it’s the latter, would it be too much trouble to ask for the statements of the other mod devs? It’s more reassurance for me than anything, but it’s ok if not!

And it’s alright! I don’t feel it was a waste. It was fun while it lasted, and I still love the characters and the story, and it’s sad the efforts of so many people were tainted by one person. I genuinely hope they’re all doing okay.

(MOD... WHY MUST YOU FEED US DELICIOUS ANGST, YOU AND BAIZHU MOD.... WHY...🥺[actually loves it])

(Ooc: I feel you omg!!! My heart is sore from both reading and writing it kakdahkhsha (Btw, I have seen the other asks you sent and I am working on answering them! I can just be a little scatterbrained from time to time)

I personally love angst, it's one of my favourite genres to write! I haven't roleplayed angst often either but it's so fun!!

I'm so so glad that you enjoy it omg! It's nice to know that rp can make other viewers happy as well and not just the mods!)

[fukuzawa-armeddaddyagency]

Ahem, mod I have sent asks & Reblogs, but I don't get a response so I thought you might not be getting them! I understand you very busy with other blogs so don't mean to come across mean if I do 😅

-🪽

// hi. It's not even that I'm busy. I'm just scatterbrained and bad at this. I am so sorry if I'm not responding. Please you can always always send kind reminders here or in dms. And don't take it personally, it's not. I'm just a mess

[ponydoodles]

why do yall allow ditzy to be used for muffin/bubbles? since its also a bad term. the definition meaning "silly or scatterbrained (typically used of a woman)." (this isnt mad or anything, genuine question!)

generally, it's just a matter of the difference between a word actively used in a derogatory and offensive way against disabled people (often equating lazy eyes and down syndrome as well as slower voices to being stupid, automatically foolish, and more) and a word that while it can be used as an insult, has less of a history that would make people instinctively flinch. we acknowledge theres definitely people who likely mean it in the lighthearted way that we use ditzy, but the other name for her has a more active role as an offensive term and has been associated with the r slur by many. it didn't start out offensive, but in more modern times it's definitely garnered an offensive history and many of the people who defend calling muffins that name were often ableist and would compare it to the r slur or even praise that it was offensive.

as the mod writing this, i acknowledge some neurodivergent people may use it as reclamation, but.. it effects people with physical disabilities. she's called that because of her eyes and because of the way she used to speak, not just because she's clumsy, something that's a pretty neutral trait to give even to a character with a lazy eye. it would be similar to a cishet person writing a queer person with a name actively referencing a derogatory term, yknow?

meanwhile, ditzy does also have a slight history of being used for women (especially blonde women), it's.. also moreso just a different way of saying dizzy. it's more affectionate when applied to a children's show character and while it points out that she's clumsy and forgetful, it doesn't actively point out her disability as something that supposedly encompasses her enough to be named after it.

sure, it is nicer to call her muffins or bubbles instead, but we do allow ditzy doo as it's not only the name originally intended for her but also a name where.. we have evidence that the writers don't really think of women or even generally blonde women this way, the show is about the wide range of how women and young girls can act. meanwhile with the other name, ditzy is the only character with a consistent lazy eye and combined with her slower voice and clumsiness, the other name just rings a lot harsher than the other one does. thanks for the ask (it is a valid question, after all), and thank you to anyone reading this! sorry it's a bit long but well, you come here for neurodivergent horses, you're gonna get neurodivergent mods too -mod cottonskittles (jordyn)

[petitelepus]

Hey hey!! Can I request a Dream Daddy matchup?

I’m a shorty (4’9”) with really long dyed curly hair! It goes down past my calves and is a pink ombré (yes it’s a hassle to take care of), and I have green eyes and lots of freckles on my face!! Also my skin’s like, really pale - almost embarrassingly so. I have no body mods lol I’m a weenie. I’m het-romantic asexual and identify currently as agender with she/he/they pronouns.

Personality-wise, I’m a little scatterbrained and all over the place, but I do mean well - even if there’s some days where the English language eludes me, haha. I also tend to go from being unable to form coherent sentences to speaking long-winded, refined monologues - this also translates to my writing, as I either send fifty-seven emojis immediately or I take forty five minutes to write around seven paragraphs on meaningless topics. My hobbies are doing math for absolutely ridiculous problems (how many bees would it take to permakill Thanos, for example) and playing the ukulele. I love love love cats!!!!!

I match you with Mat Sella!

Mat knows better than to judge someone based on their looks, but you still manage to surprise him with your actual age. You're really cute, you know that? Your freckles are so cute, your eyes so pretty, and your hair is so long, wavy and so beautiful.

As a long-time single father, Mat is used to doing her daughter Carmensita's hair and would love to do yours. If you let him, he would happily braid flowers into your hair. He makes you look like a flower fairy from old mythologies. 

Mat meets a lot of people in the music world and many have different pronouns, sexualities, and identities, so when you explain yours to him, he understands and totally supports you, no matter what.

You’re honestly so cute when you turn into a little scatterbrain. Mat always smiles when he watches you trying to remember the word you wanted to use but couldn’t remember, and he helpfully offers you some words that could fit the situation.

Oftentimes, he offers just the right word you were looking for, but if not, he enjoys watching you stutter as you try to come up with the word you're looking for.

Mat enjoys getting your emoji-filled texts because it's like a game of charades, only with a phone. That doesn't mean he doesn't enjoy your refined monologues. If you're coming over to Coffee Spoon, he enjoys surprising you by bringing you your favorite beverage to the table before you manage to even sit. Talk about fast service!

You and Carmensita get along so well, it makes Mat so happy. When the two of you get excited over something, it's like the two of you have your own language in that you are talking.

While bringing you something to eat and drink, the single father tried to once ask what you were talking about and the two of you bombarded him with bizarre questions that left Mat speechless. Once his breaks start though, he spends them all talking with you two.

Mat sees hearts when he listens to you play your ukulele. He has tried to get you to perform with him on open mic night, but if you don't want to then he won't force you. Music is meant to be shared, but he doesn't mind being your only audience either. As you play for him, he enjoys serenading to you and declaring his love for you with guitar, piano, or some other instrument.

Cats, huh? Mat doesn't have anything against little furballs, it just never occurred to him that he could be a pet owner. Of course, Carmensita is all for it and if you two beg enough and give him those big puppy eyes then he relents. Alright alright, you get your cat, but you better clean after it.

[a-survivors-dilemma]

It's been a while. I have some announcements to make and things to say regarding the blog.

I've been busy in my personal life and I'm so sorry. I'm back now, but unfortunately... it's just me. Mod Emily is no longer a part of this blog. She's decided she no longer wanted to be a part of this blog. It's kind of depressing if I'm honest, but I understand why she left. So for now, it's just going to me. It's fine. You'll have to deal with my scatterbrain in terms of lore and characters and whatever.

Of course, everything on the blog will have to be changed to make my life easier, but it will just have to do. I'm so... so sorry. I really am.

I do have a question, of course. Since it's just me now, I'm considering redoing the introduction and whatnot, since I have a more developed storytelling style and everything. Of course, everything else before this point will be kept because it's easier. Would you guys like a total reset of the AU, to start fresh with new art, a new system, and all that? Or should I continue where we left off previously? The new introduction would be with different characters, before a match and all that.

I don't really have much more energy to make a super long detailed post, I'm really sorry, I just have no energy right now but I'll do my best to respond to all the asks! I just... give me some time, please.

I'm very sorry... but I'll try my best to keep this askblog alive! I may consider opening up the blog and getting another mod, but as of now, it's just me. Hope you guys don't mind too much...

Sincerely, Mod Annie

I’m loving these 9 posts (and also your updated system - it’s really helpful to see the general concepts and specific character examples woven together!). I definitely relate to the recent 9 who said they feel their anger. I could basically agree to everything in that post - especially the anger directed at myself when I don’t stop an interaction that is exhausting me. The other thing that I struggle with is the idea that 9s should reach out. I’m trying to reach out, but in doing so, I’m also opening myself up to the sting of rejection. I end up feeling bitter when someone who I would like to cultivate a friendship with never reaches out first (after the initial interactions) or casually says things that seem unkind. For example, if we’re talking about music and I say (very politely) that I think a particular song is over-rated, and the other person responds with something like - “But a lot of people like it so maybe you’re missing something” it hurts. I don’t expect to be agreed with on everything - I like discussing differences of opinion. But when something like this happens I get stuck in a cycle of getting angry, then wondering if maybe I’m too sensitive, then thinking maybe I should apologize for offending them, then realizing that I only want to apologize so they will realize they came across in an antagonistic way and apologize to ME… Then I decide my whole approach to people is false/manipulative and friendship is over-rated and I don’t want to even try anymore. Hermit life, ahoy! The fear of being a bother and an unwanted intrusion is always there and it is often very strong. Do they feel compelled to respond because I messaged them or reached out in person? At what point should I stop attempting to connect? But I also get angry and think “Really? You have so many friends that you don’t want one more, even though we’ve had some fun times together and you’ve told me you enjoyed spending time with me?” And I honestly don’t want a really intimate “kindred spirit” type relationship with most friends - I just want to enjoy a good conversation now and then and to feel like my input is valuable to that person. I want them to sometimes ask me what my latest obsession is or how I feel about a particular topic. And being a 9w1 (with a lot of 1 traits) I’m much harder on myself than on other people. Obviously, if there is a problem, it is my fault. Even if I thought about my message 100 times before sending it, it must have come across wrong, and this is why it’s hard for a 9 to relax and “just be” - at least if you carefully craft a smart/funny/insightful message than you can feel that you did your best, even if you fail to connect with the other person. I guess what I’m trying to say is that it is certainly good for 9s to be encouraged to reach out. We need the permission! But, fellow 9, if you do reach out, be prepared for some people to reject you, and try not to let rejection make you bitter about people in general. There ARE people who will care about you and be interested in what you have to say. But it may take time to find them - even a lifetime. I apologize if the above comes across as passive aggressive - but maybe other 9s will relate and feel they aren’t alone? Or will write in with tips on how they deal with the positives and negatives of reaching out? 

Mod Note: You know what helps you get over the fear of rejection? Being rejected and realizing -- it changes nothing about your life. You lost nothing that you previously owned. The more rejection you face, the less frightening it is and the less seriously you take it. People have many reasons to not respond to you -- and it’s not all about you or what you did wrong. That’s taking too much on yourself. They are busy, preoccupied, fellow 9s who procrastinate  ;), have a hectic home life, aren’t good at answering texts or e-mails, etc. Some of them are scatterbrains, others are self-absorbed. Learn to shrug and go “oh well” and look for the next fun person who might want to be friends. Life is an adventure. There are millions of people on this planet. Will most of them want to be your friend? No, but some of them will, so keep looking for them.

Feel disappointment, rather than insulted. Then brush it off and try again.

I know it’s hard, but it’s also important to learn to guard your feelings. By that, I mean try not to take everything personally. If you are a feeling dominant in particular (and you sound like one), it’s doubly difficult not to feel hurt all the time by careless remarks, but... you don’t want to walk on eggshells around people all the time (and shouldn’t have to) and the same is true for them. Remind yourself that it’s likely they did not mean to hurt your feelings and ask yourself if that offhanded remark is really worth feeling upset about. I heard something good the other day from a 9 that I really liked -- she said, “Ask yourself if this will matter in a week.” If not, don’t sweat it.

Keep searching. You will find people who want to talk as much as you do. Right now in particular there is a lot of lonely people out there who want friends. :)

Hey y'all, I've fallen painfully behind on the inbox, but please have patience: I'm proposing my dissertation in 2 days 😅 know that I see you and care and hope to get to those messages soon! <3 Mod Cap

[moved-danganronpamess]

My classes are pretty well, Mommers, thanks for asking! Though, sometimes I feel like I'm slacking off too much or falling behind because I'm not learning in person. It's also a little tough for me to keep track of my work even though I have a planner. I'm a little scatterbrained but that's probably because I've been focusing a lot on my Creative Writing class and videogames lol. Right now, my favorite game is Children of the Light. It's super cool! I even wrote a haiku about it! -Rowing Anon^-^

You wrote a haiku?? THAT'S AMAZING! CAN YOU SHOW IT TO ME? You must be so talented, my blossom!

I'm sure you aren't slacking off, online classes can be a bit weird and confusing. At the start I also felt how different I was during online classes and normal ones.

You have a Creative Writing class? Amazing! That means you write a lot, right? Also, I have heard of Children of the Light before! How is it?

Don't forget to take care of yourself and stay hydrated!!! - mod Chiaki

[magica-witch-project]

(1/2)hello! my wish would be to be able to have a clear mind in general(i tend to sometimes be scatterbrained). i am unknowingly selectively apathetic and caring, therefore i cannot control what my reactions to situations can be. i can look from any point of view and understand it, the catch may be that it can result in me being flaky and change personalities?? or emotions fairly quickly. at times when i have the energy, i can change it at will.

"(2/2) i usually tend to want to please people, or not, there is not in between(im fairly bipolar). the way id fall into despair is because i couldnt control other outcomes the way that id like them to and/or a decision to make was too hard, making me not being able to keep my sanity and becoming completely emotionless with outbursts of random emotion out of nowhere, spiraling into despair and loneliness, because i couldnt accept it. sorry if this was complicated, thank you!" 

Your magical girl from is pure white and very elegant. Your dress is made of fluffy ;ayers of chiffon with a ruffled square neckline, puffy sleeves, and a small, corset-like belt. On your head is an equally pristine ruffled bow. The only color on your outfit is your soul gem, which appears as a crystalline blue pendant necklace. Your weapon is a silver basket-hilted sword. You have also gained the ability to float, giving you a nice height advantage over your opponents. Your fighting style is startlingly quick and to the point- it may not be showy, but it certainly gets things done. This makes you a respected member of your magical community, as your level-headedness and no-nonsense fighting is honestly formidable. In your normal life, things are quite different. You are much less unpredictable, and tend to be very good at helping others make tough decisions. You also find that you are much less prone to mood swings and rapid personality switches.

Unfortunately, being level-headed doesn’t prevent you from getting trapped in impossible situations. During a battle with a particular though witch, you were forced to make a decision to either aide your comrades in the fight or help rescue a bystander that had been drawn into the barrier. You chose the latter, but this decision cost the life of a weaker magia who desperately needed your assistance. The guilt of her blood on your hands breaks you, and you throw yourself into your work harder than before. Your emotions are gone, and you begin to wonder if you can even feel pain anymore. Every so often, a burst of anger works its way out of you, causing you to fight even more recklessly before. It is one of these such moments that causes you to use up the last of your power, forcing you to fall into witchdom. You are now Rasina, the witch of still waters. Her nature is undisturbed. Rasina’s barrier is a small, stony shoreline surrounding the most still lake anyone has ever seen. The green-brown of its water is so flat that it looks like a large sheet of glass. Anyone who enters, however, will have the irresistible urge to touch the water- just dipping a toe in won’t hurt, right? If the water remains untouched, nothing will happen, but the smallest ripple in the water will cause the witch herself to appear. She is a large, many-limbed being pulled together by the water of tehlake she resides in. Her body is full of the debris in the lake, and the water froths when she moves. She will attack with these long, watery tendrils that can pierce through armor, so it is best to move quickly. The best way to defeat her is to piece her body straight through the middle. When she is defeated, Rasina will splash all at once back into the lake, creating gentle waves that will lap until the barrier fades from view.

Thank you for the wish! If you want anything changed please let me know. Dealing with an… uncooperative brain is rough, isn’t it? I myself deal with pretty severe ADHD, so I DEFINITELY get the whole scatterbrained thing. I find that the best way to help keep your thoughts together is to write everything down by hand, and take a few minutes any time you feel yourself slipping to verbally talk yourself through what you’re trying to accomplish before getting back to work. Of course, everyone has their own ways of getting by, so that may not help… Either way, I genuinely wish you the very best of luck in the future.

Mayuri Shiina

ESFJ

Functional order: Fe - Si - Ne - Ti

Spoiler warning This article will cover Mayuri’s analysis with precise reference to the plot. Also, please note that:

this article only refers to the anime adaptation of S;G, as none of us mods has still played the visual novel.

this article only refers to Stein’s;Gate classic, as only ENFP mod have seen the movies and the Zero. If you have further comments or want to discuss about it, leave a comment or contact us!

Judging Functional Axis

Extroverted Feeling (Fe) / Introverted Thinking (Ti)

Mayuri’s main focus throughout the series lays on people: their happiness, their well-being, their dreams, their goals, their interactions. She was happy with being with Okabe at first, but she’s way happier when the number of lab members increases. Mayuri is deeply fond of the group, enjoys the atmosphere of shared joy and friendship in the lab, and the only occasion in which we see her making a stand is when someone (often Okabe) threatens that sense of familiarity, or wrongs someone who’s part of the group. We rarely see her getting angry during the episodes, but when it happens, it is for one reason: someone is being rude or too hard with someone other. For example: Okabe hurting Luka’s feelings in the timeline when Luka is a girl, or Suzuha hating Kurisu for apparently no reason, or Okabe deciding that the round table is cancelled without an explanation. All these things aren’t fine with her, because they mean that the group can’t be all united anymore: if someone is angry or sad with someone other, the atmosphere is heavier and less lively. This is because Mayuri wants everyone to be friend with each other in the most pure way, and is often the one who makes the first step toward that, or the one who mediates between two contestants in an argument - those usually being Okabe and Kurisu. 

Her warm and caring Fe is opposed by her repressed Ti, that often shows when Okabe, Kurisu and Daru are discussing time-traveling theories: she doesn’t understand all that science, nor she wants to, because to her, the happiness of her friends matters more than the experiments they are doing. She tends to approach problems only looking at how people feel about the situation, and might get upset or call it “heartless” if someone tries to discuss the matter in a more logical way - because people are people and not problems to be solved.

Perceiving Functional Axis

Introverted Sensing (Si) / Extroverted Intuition (Ne) 

Mayuri is a hard worker, puts passion and dedication in everything she does. She doesn’t have many hobbies aside from geek culture and cosplay, but she puts a lot of effort in making the costumes with a precise method and the right planning. She’s very reliable and tends to look at the details in the world surrounding her, often offering information to both Okabe and Kurisu when they feel they’re forgetting something. She is also very fond of the memories of her childhood, and uses to bring them up when conversing with Okabe or generally talking about him - she values those experiences, they are precious to her because they’ve led the two of them toward the present situation and the friendship they now share.

Mayuri remains more of a comprimary in S;G and shines brighter in Zero, thus her Ne isn’t deeply covered in the series, but it can still be spotted in her optimism and her ability to come up with unconventional propositions or ideas from nowhere - usually regarding things the group can do together- or a different way to think about some detail the others forgot. She is quiet and enjoys the established routine of the lab (aux Si), but this doesn’t stop her from wanting to be part of the changes that occur when other people join in (Fe-Ne). She is also extremely positive in attitude and tends to always see the brighter side and the glass half full. 

Also typed as: ENFP

This is ENFP mod writing, specifically, because well - this feels kind of personal. I’d like to say that I see why people think Mayuri is ENFP, but truth be told, she’s way different even from the stereotypical way of thinking about ENFPs. She does have Ne in the stack, but it’s only tertiary - there’s no way she could be a Ne dom. She is enthusiastic but towards people and not towards ideas, she’s the opposite of scatterbrained or unmethodical, she can’t stand abstract discussions and on contrary, she much more shies away from them because all that stuff about time traveling and worldlines is complicated and she doesn’t even want to understand it. ENFPs can be passionate, driven and even strict if they want to -that’s when tert Te and inf Si kick in- but not in the way Mayuri is towards her friends. Friends aren’t important only because they’re friends, they matter because they are people and Mayuri deeply cares for people even if she barely knows them: that’s Fe. So, looking at the aux and tert: Mayuri doesn’t have Fi but most importantly, she’s not a Te user. Even in a tertiary position, Te makes someone interested in results, objective data and practical applications of what one’s doing. Mayuri doesn’t show a single sign of having either Fi or Te during the series.

[originaldanganronpascenarios]

hey! could i get 3 matchups for ndrv3?? im a bi disaster™ that uses she/they pronouns (i’m female). i’m more chaotic than organized,, im also vvv energetic,,, but also like introverted. im also kinda short (like,, around 4’11 short // +). i suck at interacting w people (making frens is hard 4 me haha) & i daydream often (i have the attention span of a four year old ,,,) aLso i’m really scatterbrained (like i suck at concentrating on stuff). (1/2)

Good God it was super fun to write! It was just so wholesome!!!

I match you with...

Angie Yonaga

Both of you are equally chaotic and energetic.

She really likes the fact that you are shorter than her actually... Since it just makes you cuter!

Whenever she catches you daydream she just waits a bit before snapping you back to reality if she needed something from you. Otherwise she'd just let you be and observe you.

She likes your sense of humor and you often laugh over same memes.

Your second match is...

Kaito Momota

The fact that you are socially akward and have hard time interacting with others was what brought his attention to you.

And with time you ended up together- wich to be honest was great.

He also was a daydreamer type and funny thing is that you often drifted away at the same time.

When it comes to dates you both sucked at planning so you just went crazy and had spontanic dates where you went for whatever was thrown in your way.

Since you aren't much athletic and you want to improve Kaito helps you out and you train together. He always makes sure though you don't push yourself too far and you have always pleasant workouts.

And next day if either of you were sore you just had lazy days in.

The best part is that you have similar sense of humor so you always laugh together while looking at some memes.

Your third match is...

Tenko Chabashira

Since she is used to see you being hyper and talkative she often forgets that you are introverted.

But it wasn't any problem other than her being pretty bothered by it internally.

You two are very similar and you often just go and do something without further thought.

Since you often daydream she learnt to not disturb your thoughts. Expecially since your face expression looked adorable!

Speaking of being adorable she just ADORES your height. Such small person but fits and gives so much love.

Tenko fully supports you when it comes to becoming athletic. She helps you with your training and she always gives you hope to move towards your goal.

Dear Anonymous,

Co-Mod:

Mod Kristoph: F

(Previous Letter)

Dear Anonymous,

Co-Mod: You’re welcome!  That’s basically what happens when you ask a scatterbrained Sonic fan to write an essay.  I actually wrote a short critique about Sonic Mania over on my blog.  I love any sort of game that creates a good mixture of the old and new elements of a series, and Sonic Mania did it almost flawlessly.

My favorite sonic game happens to be the one my favorite character originated from -- they are Sonic Adventure 2: Battle and Shadow the hedgehog.  I might be biased because it was the first 3D game I ever purchased, but it didn’t take me long to fall in love with the game’s music, mechanics, and touching story.  I’m still waiting for a Sonic game that even comes close to that level of quality.  I also enjoyed seeing a new hedgehog rival who tried to out-speed and out-cool Sonic.  I even liked pretending to be him in elementary school.  No, for real.

Mod Kristoph: I’ve only played part of Sonic Unleashed. Never really cared for it either. Don’t get me wrong. I’m sure the games are fine. Still, I was never much of a Sonic fan. I’m more Mario.

Dear forceofnatureandcorn,

Co-Mod: It’s hard to say, considering how much we know about each of these characters (i.e. practically nothing), but I’d probably go with Ema, since she’d be the oldest of the three.

Mod Kristoph: It’s close but I’d have to give it to T&T Apollo.

Mod Maya: I give it to Maya because she sits under freezing waterfalls for training, she’s hiding something, I know it.

(Previous Letter)

Dear jnv11,

Co-Mod: Ah, okay.  Again, that hasn’t been a problem yet, but I’ll probably look for some way to dance around the contradiction.  For example, if Apollo and Trucy discovered their relation to each other in the next game (which I’m hoping and praying will happen), and someone sent Phoenix a letter asking if he’d ever break his promise to Thalassa and tell them, I’d have him respond with, “That’s no longer an issue, actually.”  Hopefully it won’t get too complicated.

Dear Anonymous,

Co-Mod: You don’t need our permission, pal.

Dear Inferno,

Co-Mod: She’d probably be all right, considering she has an uncanny talent for not dying.

Dear sinyove,

Co-Mod: If you’re referring to finding random illogical letters and answering them,

Dear Anthony,

Co-Mod: Different platforms don’t really mean a lot to me as long as it’s the same game, but I’d definitely going to miss it, too.

Mod Kristoph: Technically the Switch has a touch screen but it’s rarely used. Personally, I don’t have much of a problem with it. I mean the Paper Mario series went from turn based to platformer in Super Paper Mario and people (mostly) didn’t have a problem with that. (Instead, that was saved for Sticker Star.) As long as the game is still fun, the mysteries are clever and it still carries the AA charm we all know and love, I don’t really see an issue with the touch screen being gone.

Except maybe the investigation sequences being changed for the worse. Prove me wrong, Capcom.

Mod Maya: Hm they might just handle it like they do their current mobile ports, I think, it’ll just take a bit of getting used to not having the double screen.

Dear Inferno,

Co-Mod: It was amazing, all right.  I’m not sure if you meant to say Franziska’s speech, or if Maya had a speech that I’m forgetting, but I agree that the ending was very satisfying.  I also loved the short canon-breaking skits with Edgeworth, Kay, and Gumshoe at the end of each episode.

Who'd have thought I would run into 999 again after all this time?

Organization and Time Management by mod vanilla:

organization and time management is so important in IB, it is crucial to your success. when you start the program you will feel absolutely drowned by due dates and projects. fear not! here are some tips that can help you manage your time so you some some resemblance of a social life and time to sleep.

Time Management:

1) keep a calendar/ planner!: lots of people do this and my english teacher actually started checking our planners so people would remember to write stuff in them! It’s super helpful to get a physical planner because you will remember things better if you write them down. if you’re a person that checks their phone a lot, a digital planner that gives you reminders may be more helpful.

2) Start assignments early: I cannot stress this enough, if the due date is a week away start it the day you get it and break it up into pieces. for psychology sl we have SAQs due almost weekly and we have to evaluate studies, getting started the day we receive them has been so much easier than trying to do them in one night. it is also helpful to do notes like this because remembering things in smaller pieces is easier. you can also use certain assignments as study material and you wouldn’t want to use something you did in 20 minutes to study from.

3) set goals for yourself: you will feel like you’re accomplishing something even with little tasks. make goals that are attainable such as, i will add more diagrams to my notes to make them more concise, or i will aim for a 90 on my quiz this week. although you may not get it perfect for a while, you’re getting closer to a bigger goal.

organization:

1)make sure your notes are easy to read: this is something lots of people struggle with because they are trying to furiously write down everything the teacher says. making your notes pretty will motivate you to look back on them and read them. you can also go back home and rewrite the notes for more retention!

2) make a “to do” list when you get home: if you’re scatterbrained like me and you want to do all 29292 of your assignments when you get home, make a to do list. get the harder subjects out of the way first, and then you can focus on subjects you like and subjects you need to spend more time on studying for.

organization and time management go hand and hand, they are crucial for this program and we are all still learning and figuring things out. you will reach your goal once you learn how everything works! good luck my friends!
