NINTENDHOE

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ 1610! Miles morales x reader

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ hc of playing acnh with miles bc I miss playing it

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ gag worthy fluff tbh, I need me a bf like miles

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ header by pastelwalks

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ tbh he probably played before u two had gotten together but let’s pretend he didn’t rn

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ miles most definitely questions everything about the game

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷”why are we the only human??” “Why is the place being ran by a racoon?” “Who is this random otter in the ocean??”

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷miles shaking trees and getting stung by wasp. After you told him that a villager can give him medicine he went up to one and they called him ugly LMFAO.

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ I feel as if miles wouldn’t be picky when it comes to villagers, he loves all of them

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ skips all of blathers dialogue. “He talks to much” 😭

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷but because of blathers he remembers so many facts about dinosaurs, bugs and fish. He even recites them if he see it in public

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ “that’s a paper kite butterfly” “ I don’t now wether to write on it, fly it or spread it on toast”

“…what..”

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ He isn’t really into the whole “selling villagers thing” and when he finds out you put your villagers up for sale on discord he judges so hard😭😭

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ “wdym your putting Moe up for sale???” “Miles he’s a ugly version of Tom, I don’t like him” “but FOR SALE??? That’s sounds like human trafficking”

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ I feel like the villagers miles would like would be Dobie and Joey, don’t ask why they’re just adorable.

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ now back to the actual game, miles would have BEEF with Tom nook (just like the rest of us)

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷” baby why do I have to pay a phone bill fee, he OFFERED the phone to me”

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷imagine the first time he shoots down a ballon and it goes in the water LMFAO

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ when he has to build the nooks cranny alone, he would be so shocked at the amount of material he needs

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷”30?? 30 iron nuggets?? How am I supposed to get 30 iron nuggets if the rock only gives me two???”

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ you start to treat him like he’s your sugar baby, giving him iron, regular wood (bc that shit is hard to get for no reason), flowers,literally anything

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷”hey baby, why’d you want to come to my island?? What are you dropping?? Is that MONEY, WHY ARE YOU DROPPING THOUSANDS OF BELLS??”

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ he always says he’s gonna pay u back but you decline ofc

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ miles gets mad when he gets a sea bass for the 90th time so you offer for him to fish on your island only for him to get another see bass

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷” I got ANOTHER SEA BASS? If I hear this joke one more time I’ll start crying. “Baby here you try” *you pull a sunfish* *angry stare in disbelief*

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ he gets a little aggressive with Isabelle when she is trying to help the island get up to 3 stars and he keeps getting told “plant more flowers”

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ now he gets 3 stars right, he’s fucking EXCITED like it took so long and he finally got it

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ miles fav k.k songs are kk crusin, kk surfin and kk western.

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ I don’t think he has a theme going on, just kinda goes w the flow but loves watch island tours on YouTube

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷miles coming over to your island just to see you beating the hell out of a villager with your net and calling them names

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷”mi vida…. Why are you torturing them?..” “I want him to leave”

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ most definitely has you design a Spider-Man costume for his character

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ I truly don’t know what his favorite season would even be, like idk I get spring vibes but it could be anything

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ having miles come to your island to catch the spiders that are harassing you. (I’m being so fr, the spiders scare me so much, if I see one I’m closing the whole game).

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ he WORSHIPS your island, like he loves it always praising you about it just UGH 😩 I LOVE HIM

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷” Amor??? Your island is so good, what?? How long did this even take?, you’re so talented I swear” “uhhhh haha it’s not that good” “ baby it’s AMAZING”

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ acnh dates where Celeste is at your island and you both make wishes

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ “you know… my only wish is to be with you forever” “miles, you are so corny….I love you” “I love you to mi alma”

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ spending the holidays together in acnh, like him wrapping up a gift for you during Christmas and you both exchanging them 😭😭 adorable

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ telling miles all of your island drama bc he swears yours is more entertaining

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ “omg baby, literally Raymond and Judy got into a fight the other day arguing about who’s better looking and Raymond said it was obviously him, so he was basically calling Judy ugly. THEN they had the audacity to ask me who looked better. “Whatttttt😮”

ˏˋ°•*⁀➷ he loves the game truly, he plays with you whenever you ask. He just got out the shower but you wanna play? let him hurry and put clothes on and he’s yours. Just got done patrolling after a long day but you wanna play? How could ever deny you with a face like yours?

I literally love this sm, I might have to make another one with 42!miles and another with the twins 🤔🤔🤔 let me know if y’all want that bc I’ll have it done,

The Sea Prince: Pirates’ Factions and Empires’ cast. Concepts!

Hello!! It’s been a while since I made a worldbuilding post, and because this AU is currently being revised, I’d like to welcome the side characters who will be making their appearances throughout the story! Firstly, I’d like to talk about the changes between Pirates SMP and Empires SMP to properly fit the vision of this world. These are still their main concepts until they’re (eventually) designed and fully realized, but this is what their general faction/ personality is like.

The factions exist! They’re split between the navy and hunters, given Team TIES are naval commanders, they should have some powerful people with them while the Red Canaries (ehehe they’re all bird names) deal with their rival group.

The shorter version is; Kites and Kestrels are Hunters, Herons are a special class of navy, and Nightingales are voyagers. Their characters and the Empires cast will be used for further development in the story. :D

I’m not well caught up in the characters of Pirates so they will not be gaining a description. The Empires cast will as I am more familiar with them!

* - special case

Here’s the general idea of the factions;

Formed out of shared interests, contracts, or skill, there are countless factions throughout the world. Like any faction or guild, they can be hired together to cover all their bases and work with each other’s strength. It’s not often this works, but they’re contractually obligated to do their jobs, so they keep their heads down. These groups and crews were formed naturally and hence, want to work with these specific members if ever brought on to jobs.

(This is still subject to change; the general idea is the same tho!)

Kites: Formidable and boastful.

Prioritizing strength, this faction of rowdy hunters are no stranger to the wilds of the ocean. They enjoy the thrill of the hunt and fighting evil monsters. This specific group cannot work with any hunter crew due to the belief of their superior strength and does not ask for help. They are particularly annoyed by the Canaries, thinking them to be spoiled and pampered due to being funded by the King himself. Hopefully their paths don’t collide. Hopefully.

IMPORTANT MEMBERS:

Aimsey

Bek

Kuervo

Reddoons

Tubbo

Etho (formerly)

Kestrels: Relic of the past.

Some members of this great faction were once Ren’s old crew, they thrived in a lavish lifestyle their hunts have provided them. A strong leader with a fierce second-mate, they were unstoppable. It was like this for a few years, but after their Captain’s death it hasn’t been the same. Their second-mate soon left to be in his former crew, and they are unsure what the future may hold. If they ever cross paths with the Canaries, especially with their former second-mate, threats of violence look over their heads.

IMPORTANT MEMBERS:

Ren (deceased)

Martyn (formerly)

Guqqie

Kyle

Sausage

Joey

Oli

*Scar (associated with the group in the past)

Nightingales: Explorers and Navigators.

Away from hunting and fighting, they simply want to travel and make it easier for people to get from place to place. They are a talented group who design and create machinery for travel and everyday use, but also spend their times in exploring and charting maps; a very versatile group indeed.

IMPORTANT MEMBERS:

Michela

Graecie

Will

Acho

App

Ros

False

*Pix

Herons: Elite Intelligence.

A group of very few, but strong leaders. They are special cadets from the navy who succeeded past their peers and are given special attention from their commanders as they train to, hopefully, lead in their place one day.

IMPORTANT MEMBERS:

Cleo (formerly)

Mumbo (formerly)

El

Olive

Owen

Water

Finally, we get to the Empires cast. Originally this au was only a Life Series x Empires fic due to some interesting dynamics the characters would have with some side characters, but pirates opened up a new opportunity and fills up some plot holes! I did say the Empires cast are getting their descriptions, so here they are!

‘Mythical ‘Myth’ J. Sausage.’

‘Humble’ and ‘polite’ are the first things he’d say about himself. He is particular in living the high life and wants to continue living up to his faction’s name. He can’t stand hanging around Martyn, so he openly makes fun of him for his own ego.

‘Joey Graceffa.’

Brought on by Myth/Sausage, Joey fits the bill of a Kestrel. He enjoys singing, but doesn’t do it as often as, “they don’t deserve to hear his voice”. He’s boastful and full of pride, joining Myth as he berates the former Kestrel. He doesn’t really know who the blonde is however, as he was brought to the crew a bit more recent.

‘Orion ‘Oli’ Sound.’

A wildcard. He’s eccentric and very chaotic, bringing all the energy into the Kestrels. He once challenged by Joey into a sing-off, and despite the other winning, Oli takes it in stride and forms a friendly(?) rivalry with the other Kestrel, making good laughs for everyone.

‘False Symmetry.’

A mechanic with big dreams. She helps build prosthetics and assists with any type of machinery, as she enjoys her time tinkering with any type of device. She likes to make herself useful, and would often go for a passive response to try and change things for the better.

‘Pix Rift.’

A researcher deep in his own thoughts. He joined the Nightingales out of their shared belief and interest in exploring, accompanying them in journeys and to breathe the open, fresh air towns and cities don’t have. He takes notes of all of his adventures but tries to keep up with his personal responsibilities, as it seems he can’t keep up with it usually.

‘Katherine Elizabeth.’

A vagabond hunter with no ties to anyone or anything, supposedly. She’s excitable and fun loving, adoring the thrill of the hunt and returning home to her girlfriend with a satisfied grin on her face. She makes her living like a mercenary would, sometimes it’s jarring that someone as upbeat and optimistic as she is also kills monsters for fun and a way to earn payment.

‘Shelby Grace.’

An explorer. She’s curious about the world due to living a relatively sheltered life and greets the world with open arms. She’s incredibly shy and prefers to explore on her own, but she wouldn’t mind traveling the world with her girlfriend.

‘Gemini Rose.’

A delightful person to be around but stirs up tricks with her twin brother. She means no harm to anyone she comes across, lest her overthinking get the better of her, and she’s all in to see the world despite the horror stories of the ocean. She’s not scared! If she’s with her brother, nothing is impossible.

‘fWhip Rose.’

A menace, but a fun one! He’s usually the one who initiates the schemes between the twins, but also the one who gets into the most trouble. Be it his reckless attitude, he’s not afraid to stand up for himself.

And that’s all I can say about them! Pirates has opened up so much ideas for the AU going forward, and I’m excited for you all to see! In the meantime… here’s the reveal of revised Act I’s titles and mini arcs, I can’t wait to show you what they all mean and contain >:)

[motherandwhore]

Malgré La Chaleur, wip.

I can count all 32 teeth, white and glowing in her primrose mouth. Her permanent smile collapses into permanent laughter and soon we’re all laughing though we don’t know why. I am laughing so much my cheeks are bruised and my guts scream from their soft cage. I laugh until piss streams down my pink, shaking legs, until I can feel every single, frank cell shake and melt onto the hot asphalt of our school’s conclave, until all I am is her laughter, until all I am is the song she sings. 

My heart is taking a walk in the sun when Mr. Jodorowsky calls on me. I am high as a kite, further from this room than Australia, and I conceive of a joey rocking against my abdomen as I struggle to answer.

“What conditions does Doppler’s effect require?” he repeats, a giant in my fear, red and sweaty as we all are. I cast a glance to Angela, who stares fixedly ahead, but I see her growing redder like a large, girl-shaped pimple. I want to prod and poke and especially laugh, but he scares me too.

“Uh…sorry, I’m not really sure, sir.” The classroom is rendered some kind of hellish, lithified receptacle of unrelenting Californian sun and our perjurious sin. A girl snickers in the back and I am almost certain Davies next to me is passing notes to Jane. I track with sly eyes the hand-to-hand propagation of the pink slip, a practised flesh-weaving dance, and though obscured from my vision, I know it ends up in her lap. 

“Look at me when I’m speaking to you, Miss Kinski.” I want to see her face. A face I’ve no doubt seen a thousand times before, even more if dreams count. My head moves against the tiny voice in my head. No, no, no. When we meet eyes, she grins.

I am sitting in the guidance counselor’s office, watching a fly skitter, weave, and bob on her large, polyester-covered breasts like an ugly, bent-back ballerina. She makes overcompensating gestures and uses her slow, Maraschino cherry, infomercialspeak to peel away whatever hole she believes I hide in.

“So, Valérie, what do you think your next big step will be? College? Yes, yes, but you should know there is a vast array of options outside of university. Remember–” The world is your oyster, I finish in my head with my own dreamy garnish.

She goes on, and I stare pointedly at bleeding, kind Jesus, cooking in the frying-pan heat, looking both kindly on me and her from his cross, even though she’s a whore. As if hearing my slander, she winks at me and engorges her own face, stretching her fat, plum lips wider and wider. We stand up together like a dodgy reflection, and she pulls me in her arms, crushing me against her body. I feel her entirely, soft and warm, and I run out with a hurried Thanks.

Cigarette smoke carries on for miles above our plasticine, doll heads, vanishing and reappearing like a mirage. “Where were you?” Julie sighs, fanning herself with a flattened hymn book. I keep a safe distance because I’m worried she might smell my recent bathroom rendezvous. 

“Didn’t you hear, Jules? Val pissed off Mr. Jodorowsky. Again!” I‘m not particularly fond of her glib smugness but when all eyes fall on me, I just shrug. Like a fucking sheep.

“Christ, Val. What is that? The third time this week?” As per usual, I keep silent. I am annoyed more than anything that daddy-fucker Julie Kilmer is the one berating me. I mean, it makes me sick, more nauseous than Mrs. Ferguson’s, albeit clothed, boobs.

JOEY HELLBERG.

WHAT THEY LOOK LIKE. annoyingly good looking. equal proportion of cute and handsome. chiseled cheeks, no fat softening the slanted curves. only endearing quality is his ears stick out more than normal, almost cartoonishly. his lobes are pierced (a relic from middle school when he got his ear pierced aged thirteen as a girl with the girls) but if he's wearing an earring it's usually in his left ear. very, very toned. noticeable muscles from weekly workouts. the ridges of musculature like ribs of a pumpkin. a gymnast's build. seems taller than he is based on his physique but he's actually quite short: around 5'7''. has the letters E L M O tattooed below his left hand knuckles in red ink and american traditional lettering. brown irises that over exaggerate his already excitable state. short, tousled, slightly styled hair. the barest suggestion of stubble because he thinks it makes him look more mature and masculine. slim nose bridge with a wide but sharp nasal area shaped like a traditional diamond kite. nostrils slightly upturned at the outer edges, kangaroo-like. pale white top surgery scars rimming the inside of his pecs. no crouch bulge, he doesn't pack.

WHAT THEY SMELL LIKE.  baby powdery deodorant sweat that reaches you first. bitter cocoa from making and shaking daily chocolate flavored protein drinks; some of the spilled out powder clings to his clothes and skin. lavender soapiness oily caught in the creases of his body (wrists, elbows, neck, back of knees, eyelids) because he uses scented bubble bath to wash himself.

WHAT THEY TASTE LIKE. vaguely chocolate-y protein powder. salty sweat made sweeter with the aromatic spritz of lavender.

WHAT THEY SOUND LIKE.  ha ha. charlie day. higher than he'd like. that sort of pitch that most men only peak to during moments of bewildered excitement or confusion. makes him seem perpetually fanatical. the testosterone shots don't effect his voice too much, possibly due to his voice related mutation. if his mutation worked how it's supposed to, he'd near constantly be using it to sound more masculine. like gregrory peck or james dean or another celebrity childhood crush. occasionally, usually involuntarily, elmo (or any other characters/sounds heard within elmo in grouchland).

WHAT THEY FEEL LIKE.  that slight clingy stick of sweaty skin that's close to dry. firm like an almost ripe peach at his limbs because of his toned muscles. prominent, hard divots on his stomach because his abs are glaringly pronounced. deceptively easy to manhandle despite his somewhat intimidating physique because he easily wilts into touch.

What do you think

[vinylspinning]

eyehategod: Take as Needed for Pain (1993)

The vinyl may still be clear, but we're taking a dark, DARK turn today on VinylSpinning: from the blissful Americana of Kacey Musgraves to the tormented sludge metal of eyehategod (*), and specifically their haunting sophomore full-length, Take as Needed for Pain ...

If America's tragic, ongoing opioid crisis needed a soundtrack, it could be this monument to suffering, despair, self-loathing, and misanthropy, which creeped in like a nightmare some 30 years ago (this reissue dates to 2015).

It's a nightmare that started (as legend has it, and yes, it's probably apocryphal) April 20, 1988, a.k.a. Cannabis Culture Day, when guitarist Jimmy Bower and drummer Joey LaCaze came together in New Orleans and joined the Big Easy's coalescing sludge scene.

After recruiting singer Mike Williams, the provocatively named eyehategod recorded two demos, '89's Garden Dwarf Woman Driver (huh?) and '90's Lack of Almost Everything, which drew the attention of French independent Convulsion Records.

Granted the princely recording budget (NOT!) of $1,000, eyehategod captured their debut album, In the Name of Suffering, later that year, and when Convulsion went bankrupt, German metal label Century Media stepped in and reissued the disc in late '92.

This time, enough copies were printed to spark an underground buzz, but the band (now also featuring lead guitarist Brian Patton and bassist Mark Schultz) were still living hand-to-mouth when they started work on Take as Needed for Pain at New Orleans' Studio 13.

In fact, Williams was allegedly homeless!

Sure sounds like it, and the album's much improved production did little to soften the sonic and psychic blows (that was never the intention) still raining down from seminal southern sludge templates like "Blank," "30$ Bag," and title track.

With their diabolical doom, head-nodding groove metal, even hardcore sprints, these tunes arrived coated in grime, feedback, and distortion, while Williams burst a spleen spewing harrowing lyrics about poverty, crime, addiction, and pain ... so much pain.

Some songs I don't even dare mention by name, for fear that their titular references to racism, incest, and abuse will offend humans and internet bots alike (the cover art may trip those alarm bells anyway), even if their lyrics clarify the band's position in opposition to these contemptible human sins.

Other cuts camouflage their horrors behind seemingly innocuous titles (see "Who Gave Her the Roses" and, erm, "Kill Your Boss"), and unnerving spoken-word collages like "Disturbance" and "Laugh it Off" also contributed to the definitive southern sludge aesthetic.

In sum, it's safe to say that with Take as Needed for Pain, eyehategod both found their way and showed the way for many fellow sludge-mongers, and 1996's equally classic Dopesick consolidated their influence before personal issues set in.

The band has been in and out of career (and sometimes personal) rehab for the past quarter century, and LaCaze sadly passed ten years ago, but albums like Take as Needed for Pain will remain vital and relevant so long as humanity's evil prevails over good.

Which is to say, for all eternity.

* Look at me overcoming my grammatical O.C.D. by adopting the band's chosen (I think?) lower-case spelling, instead of going with Eyehategod, EYEHATEGOD, or today's more common stylized approach, EyeHateGod.

More Sludge & Sludgy Metal: Acid Bath’s When the Kite String Pops, Behold! The Monolith’s Defender/Redeemist, Cavity’s On the Lam, Dark Castle’s Spirited Migration, Down’s NOLA, Fudge Tunnel’s Hate Songs in E Minor, Graves at Sea’s The Curse that Is, Melvins’ Stoner Witch, Old Man Gloom’s Seminar II: The Holy Rites of Primitivism Regressionism, Rwake’s Rest

[worstygocharacter]

So I have a bunch of submissions here, and some are doubles or triples, and I will not apologize for that because I am a salty bitch.

Leo Akaba and Declan/Reiji Akaba from Arc-V. Just... both of them. Like father, like son. Leo is a miserable failure at everything, including being a compelling villain. His son somehow manages to be even less compelling, on top of committing war crimes that he gets no comeuppance whatsoever for. (Seriously... mind-wiping children and replacing their memories?)

Bronk Stone (not going to look up his sub name rn) and Mizar/Mizael from Zexal. The former is the WORST "best friend" character, bar none, and the fact that he's even in the same category as people like Joey sickens me. He's a bad friend, a bad character, and his crush on Rio is SO annoying. As for the latter... I fully blame him for the destruction of Kite's character arc. Plus he's a royal asshole in the dub (thankfully this was just an adaptation mistake). Hate the guy, f him, so on and so forth.

Seconds (or thirds) for all!,

Name: Lucy Archer Bell

Age: 30 (Feb 12)

Identity & Orientation: NB AFAB, they/he/she, disaster pan

Originally From: Clackamas, Oregon

Most Recent Community: Dielectric Research Community, Connecticut

Time in Redwood: New as of February 2043

Resides in: A bungalow near the school

Previous occupation: Biomedical / Neuro-Engineer

Community occupation: Teacher (STEM subjects) / Daycare / Mechanic's assistant

Lucy was born to a mom in (temporary) recovery, and never knew her father. She grew up mostly raised by maternal grandparents while her mother went through several rounds of rehab, additional pregnancies and falls off the wagon. Lucy, meanwhile, became a driven, intelligent young woman - with a real sarcastic wit. She excelled in soccer, but ended up needing financial assistance for college.

She was indignant at needing financial assistance, being teased by classmates for her financial struggle, and eschewed parties to hold down a job around classes. By 2037 Lucy was in her last year of a bachelors program at John Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland.

Already having been approached by prestigious biomedical firms, Lucy was starting to feel she'd outrun her crappy circumstance of birth. Around the same time news of a new outbreak was starting one of the firms swooped in and recruited every student on the same track. Promised them the chance to change the world in their lifetime, to save mankind. That they were all needed.

Dielectric was their home for several years as the world shut down. Compartmentalized, kept ignorant of the goings on outside; told it was for the best if they weren't distracted by the outside world.

Small teams worked on different pieces of a greater whole, brainstorming, hypothesizing, testing, making odd supply requests from the men upstairs...

Until supplies stopped showing up.

An intellectual powerhouse, the cell found solutions to problems as they came. Predicted likely future issues and took what preventative measures they could. But eventually, the walls would be permeated.

What researchers survived that inevitable breach fled; they weren't built for brute force fighting. Lucy was never more grateful that she'd been a jock in high school, able to outrun bigger, heavier predators.

A year of another kind of learn-by-doing, and Lucy fell ass-over-teakettle into Redwood. Specifically by setting off a hunting trap.

| Headcanons |

Lucy was on course to earn her Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Engineering; specifically angling for the Neural Engineering Track.

She never lost her snarky personality. Originally a defense mechanism, it eventually simply became a part of her personality. It didn't endear her to superiors at Dielectric, alas.

Before you ask - yes his mom named them Lucy as a Beatles homage. Yes, Lucy finds it tacky. Yes, he knows it's close to Lucille Ball, too.

Doesn't like talking about how they lost their left pinky.

Created "A fully implantable,wireless interface for CNS for electronic recording, stimulation and microfluidic drug delivery."

5 Tattoos: Lunar moth at right hipbone | cobra winding up right arm | Neuron up the exterior left calf | Twilight Zone inspired on left bicep | James Webb hexagon on the back of their neck

Goes by Archer, in addition to Lucy

Birth order: Lucy -> Allison (26) -> Joey (23) -> Nina (20) -> Jordan (16) -> Jimmy (12)

| Wanted Connections |

STEM nerds (open!) - Do you speak science, tech, engineering or math? Then Lucy would love to nerd it up with you. Conversation, projects, wild theories, whatever @orioncarnell , @tamirkamadcr

Chaotic Buds (1/2) - Lucy has high Int, low Wis and obviously would love buds of similar stat block. @aresmelaina ,

Kite String (0/1) - Who's going to tether this girl when she's getting unrealistic, too salty, etc?

Trap Spring (1/1) - She was brought in by a hunter whose trap she set off. Soz, dude. - @davxdalexander

Crossed Paths (2/3) - She was extremely behind the 8 ball on the whole apocalypse thing, running a couple years behind everyone else. Did you encounter her in the last year? Helped her out or took advantage? @frankxausting , @harry-thompson

お��しぶり its been a long time since ive done one of these!!!!! i stopped for a long time because 1. they take so long to put together and i think i was just burnt out, despite how much fun i was having, and 2. i hit a point where i was able to fly through a Lot of dialogue without having to stop and learn new pieces, so a good portion of dialogue in games started becoming a lot less like new adventures and a lot more mundane and normal feeling!! that has actually been a very special feeling and ive just been letting myself enjoy it, without jumping to make a breakdown post every 30 minutes

im definitely not at a point where i can play through games like final fantasy tactics, or like. 999. that would be the god mode of practicing japanese i think, thats like. you have to have a developed home-born and raised high school level understanding of japanese. like you dont NEED to be born and raised but thats the level of exposure you should expect to have in order to match that level

it HAS been a long time!!! i stopped playing games in japanese for a while. in the same way i got burnt out on making breakdown posts, i also got burnt out actively play-reading in japanese for at least a few months. at the time, it felt too wrong to just passively play-read for that period of time in retrospect though, i think thats wrong. input thats only getting passed through and not getting committed to memory still does more for your exposure than input that doesnt go in at all. i DID play a ton of kirby air ride in japanese in that period of time, so at least i like. REALLY know what まっすぐ means from all the drag race predictions

im playing majoras mask right now. i started playing on the switch in english and i got the energy to play in japanese, so i started a file on the computer (apparently the system language change doesnt work for the roms on the switch??). joeys playing fallout 4 a ton on the computer and im letting him since he gets less free time than i do and his work is a lot more physically taxing, so im a lot more ahead on the switch vs the computer (also the computer is just taking longer by virtue of me looking up words and shit in the jp dictionary every 20 seconds); i just got the lens of truth and the goron mask in english while im Still on the very first 3 day cycle in japanese

i dont know how many more of these ill be doing in the near future!! they DO take a long time. if i find a box of dialogue or boxes of dialogue that really Grab me, ill be here

Um, this 'Yugi has a unknown kid' story is now at 5K. Why, my brain, why? He hasn't even met the boy yet 😭

------

Yugi sighed. They would find out eventually, and some of them probably already knew.  

Case in point, when Yugi was halfway down the stairs into the kitchen, both Duke and Joey scrambled to prostrate themselves.  

“We’re soo sorry. We already apologized for drugging you that night, and now we’re really sorry for not watching you better.” 

Over their heads, he saw Kaiba raise an eyebrow at Mai, who gleamed at the hint of a story she hadn’t heard yet. Tristan seemed surprised too, twitching as he grabbed a seat in the tight kitchen. Ryou, already munching on fries, ignored the show.  

Yugi crossed his arms. “I even recall Duke being there when I woke up.” 

“I’m sorry!” the man wailed. He picked his head up just a bit. “It did sound like you were having fun though.” 

Yugi flushed scarlet. He didn’t even remember that night, but that made everything worse.  

Solomon coughed, waiting behind Yugi on the stairs.  

Yugi let his show of anger go. He could have used a condom. The woman, whoever she was, could have insisted on one too. And as much as maybe Joey and Duke should have pulled him away from a one-night stand while high as a kite thanks to whatever they'd given him, he couldn’t have expected them to follow him into the bedroom. Their hearts had been in a good place, and he couldn’t begrudge their desire to cheer him up.
