[sketchy-tour]

Its funny that I could feel my WH hyperfixation slowly morph into just my genuine special interest. I worried at first, cause I thought my love for it had died. Because it was duller. But no no. Now it sits comfortably and idly in my mind. Unshaken. Comfortable. At home.

This scanned really really badly but I had to draw Ander forcing Mats to reenact this video with him because I think he would think it was the funniest thing ever

[piccolos-bigtoe]

Oouugghhh, gueess who finished their homework assiignment…. This guy!!! Smiles big with too many teeth I am normal. I do not regret all the time I spent (I may spend more time to fix a fewwww small details….) I am so ready for the summer oh my balls………. I still have a few projects and papers to wrap up here for classes, I will pull through,,, probably…. It’s been tough ngl I feel like I JUST fell into the swing of things and now it’s ova, but that’s okay I’ll adapt

I swear to god every single one of my classmates better give me a standing ovation and kiss me on my beautiful beautiful lips when I present this in critique. I swear to god………. There better be crying…. Kidding I’m not that full of myself but I’m excited to hear what my graphics prof will say teehee…. I will probably print a physical copy of this (whether or not it will be good quality paper idk).

Also I got my portrait taken today on a silver wet plate (iirc), suuupperrr old form of photography. An artist traveled to my school and held a gallery + talk yesterday and I enjoyed it very much, I typically don’t go up on Fridays because I don’t have classes but I went with a friend to get out portraits taken and then watched the washout process of the plates!! Photography is crazy I don’t understand it. The only thing I’m kind of like dissapointed by is I’m typically not bothered by my skin or acne, but this type of photograph catches stuff SUPER WELL, like it’s kind of crazy, my friend doesn’t really have prominent freckles but on the photo they look way darker than usual. Same thing happened with my dry skin and acne, I don’t mind it too bad, but I was caught off guard a little bit to be honest lol. (Picture below w/my face cut off obviously…. I just wanted to show off my dress because it’s my prized Gunne Sax dress and like the only dress I will actually wear). Me and my two friends were the only ones who dressed up?? No one else did, which was kind of surprising, because this type of photo is rare to get just cause no one really takes them anymore or gets the equipment for it. Okay I’m done rambling tbh I am just procrastinating sleeping,, augh whatever goodnight…. I always post before I sleep…

[nanenna]

Some days I feel like I'm full of beginnings but no endings (sometimes middles that I can "yes and..." my way to finding a beginning for, but no endings). The ADHD urge to start something and never finish I swear on the ancients! Augh! I'm so frustrated! Why, brain, why?!

So anyway, I'm gonna ramble about another new idea under the cut.

----

Okay so you may or may not remember the very intimidating fic idea that's just Danny living out Cast Away (2000) but instead of an island he's trapped in the destroyed remains of Amity Park. That whole thing hinged on no one knowing who Danny was and having to uncover what happened while trying to help Danny basically learn how to be alive again.

But what if we borrow a little from Danny was the first villain AU? Instead of hiding the destruction of Amity, the GIW blame Phantom and use it to justify themselves despite no further ghost attacks happening. They basically celebrate themselves as having done the job of defeating the "Ghost King Phantom" (he wasn't/isn't, but the rest of the world doesn't know that) and all his minions, but look at the cost! They have to make sure this never happens again. (We could have the GIW basically become CADMUS after there were no more ghost attacks but meta humans were becoming the new concern.)

I'm thinking instead of some random kids calling because they saw a ghost floating over a field of half buried corpses, they instead were a bunch of teens sneaking into Amity because it's where the first supervillain was defeated (and then they saw said villain guarding a field of half buried corpses).

Instead of coming in all gentle to try and help this unknown spirit move on, the heroes come in hot with basically the entire JLD and half the JL ready to find and thwart the return a conqueror tyrant they believe to be on par with Trigon or Darkseid.

And Danny? Has no idea. He woke up alone in an empty, abandoned, destroyed city. I bet he still fixed up a radio at some point out of pure boredom but that's only going to have so much news and well... he's stuck. None of that's going to ever affect him. The weather forecast is nice he guesses, but everything else is just blah blah blah, he'd rather listen to music. Or maybe he does listen but it's more out of loneliness than to pay attention to what they're saying. So a whole bunch of people in weird costumes show up out of nowhere and Danny has not a single clue. No idea they can hurt him. No idea they want to.

[forgettable-au]

OH MY GOD

OH MY GOD OH WOW

THIS IS AMAZING WHAT

I'VE BEEN STARING AT IT ON REPEAT FOR MINUTES NOW OH MY GOD THIS IS SO GOOD

OMG THANK U SO MUCH FOR MAKING THIS????THIS IS INSANE?WHAT

AND THE ANIMATION IS SOO GOOD TOO

AIAYDKWJE I LOVE THIS AND YEAH THEIR RELATIONSHIP CAN BE LIKE THAT AND AND I'M GONNA KEEP RAMBLING IN TAGS

Please everyone watch this it's sooo good‼️

UHHHHHHHHH- OKAY LET ME EXPLAIN.

First of all, Forgettable!AU amv fanart stuff for @sunsestart cause this story is fukn magical and i cant wait to see what happens :3

Second of all ((in depth explanation))

I heard this song (Wasted Summers by juju<3) and I went *gasp* its skelebros fr fr. Plus I was already in desperate need of something to draw so BOOM!! Inserted in my brain for the next 3 days

EXPLANATION FOR THE AMV! ALL THINGS STATED AS “FACT” THAT HAVENT BEEN SAID ON THE BLOG ARE JUST MY SILLY LITTLE HEADCANONS!

Blue represents Sans and Green represents Papyrus/Wingdings. As kids when they were in waterfall, shocker, TEAL WAS ALL AROUND!!! They were harmonious and it was awesome. Then :(((

(what happens when you birth a skeleton kid who has a completely incomprehensible font??? 0 SOCIAL INTERACTION!!!!!!)

The 0 social interactions besides his brother thing kinda gets to him sometimes. Mostly subconsciously, and yeah bros a little irritable. Slamming doors, worrying his brother, fun family friendly not sibling angst stuff.

Also did ya see :3 when WD turned around his eyelights went out :3 we like to have fun here.

Also in the first little bit showing them finding stuff in the garbage dump as kids, the next shot is only Sans finding the stuff. cause WD is in the lab. and the colors are so lifeless and dull compared to when they were kids ((suddenly in tears))

ALSO THAT TV BIT, WD on tv being announced as The New Royal Scientist! and him just being so uncomfortable😭 has been a visual in my head for a while, so glad i got to draw that now

OK AND LAST “ALSO”. That last part with WD working on Blueprints and saying “yes you can” is the scene where Sans is like LETS DO SOMETHING OUTSIDE and WD is like “nah… imma do my own thing”

ok I lied, last also. the “yes I can” part of the lyrics. First they’re talking about how “oh you could totally work in the lab when you grow up” and “omg no way… only if YOU also work in the lab when you grow up”

Then they’re talking about how “oh you can leave if you want. shut up lemme finish my work” and “…omg I CAN get him out of the lab”

(ww a a ah h)

OKAY THATS ALO BYYYEEE

[bloodyyconverse]

Emeritus bloodline headcanons

OKAY no one is going to see this post but I'm going to make it anyway for future reference. This is all just how I generally write the family lore, since it's all whatever-the-fuck and up to the writer. Long ass post where I ramble about the Papas and Sister because AUGH

Okay, to preface, I write the Emeritus bloodline as partially demonic. Concentration varies because I am indecisive. But Nihil has fairly blatant demonic traits, both visually and biologically (sharp teeth, pointed ears, he could probably eat raw meat without issue, strange behaviors, etc.), and these end up passing on to his awful sons.

Primo, Secondo, and Copia (and presumably Perpetua, but we don't know much on him yet) are all the kids of Sister and Nihil. They were mutually kind of awful for each other (which I can touch on later) but would NOT leave the relationship alone and got back together a few times. Nihil was fully aware I and II were his, and he raised them (read: Primo raised Secondo). Copia, however, was raised by Sister and Nihil was pretty much entirely unaware that the little rat bastard was his. I'm currently fully prepared for Perpetua to have pretty much the same story, but I'm holding off for now.

Terzo's mother was outside of the church, and while she chose to carry him, she wasn't too keen on keeping this kid when he turned out to be a little freak (aka, also demonic like his father). So, Nihil ends up raising Terzo (again, read: Primo/Secondo raise Terzo). Imperator is especially a bitch to Terzo because of the turmoil that led to him and the fact he isn't hers; she can't help but view him as existing out of Nihil's spite.

Importantly, Terzo and Copia are the closest in age, rather than II and III being the closest. This is important TO ME because I like having Terzo and Copia be fairly close emotionally and it's just easier to pull off this way.

I pretty consistently write Copia as FTM and plan on keeping it that way, but the age he comes out/transitions varies. I'd say he's usually socially transitioned before he's a teenager, though. He's close to Terzo when they're young, and they spend a good amount of time together.

Primo is unsettling and fucked up and sort of feral because he was supposed to be the antichrist. He's well-educated and can be polite and normal, but inevitably he's very in tune with whatever Evil Genes he has, and I firmly believe he has eaten human meat before. He's a calm figure until he's eating raw meat and snarling. He gets along well with ghouls, at least. Primo distances himself from his father (and mother) as soon as he gets the chance, and only truly interacts with his younger brothers.

Secondo is a good medium between Primo and Terzo. He's still fucked up, he's tasted blood, but he is also pretty normal. He is emotionally hard to read and has a lot of turmoil. He's a strong figure to cover up just how upset he tends to be. He is far more bitter towards their parents than Primo and tends to be stubborn and firm in his plans and desires just to piss them off.

Terzo, on the other hand, loves their father to death. Despite being raised by his brothers, he seeks out Nihil's approval any chance he gets. He's visually as demonic as the others (which is to say, just enough to give someone an uneasy feeling about his strange traits), but behaviorally much more normal. He has done everything in his power to be perfect. He wants to be the best he can be so he can impress their father. He is crushed when he's dragged off the stage, because it truly does mean he was never actually good enough.

Copia is where things get tricky, because I'm a HUGE antichrist!Copia fan. It's true to ME. So, he doesn't seem to have overt demonic features until he's begun climbing the ranks and getting more influence.

ANYWAY. Unfortunately, Sister wasn't much of a better parent than Nihil. While Nihil was absent, Sister was doing all she could to keep Copia firmly under her thumb. C is convinced at some point that he is incapable without her -- he's clumsy and anxious and unsure and therefore surely he's no good at any job he's given. He doesn't realize half of this is because he was raised to behave that way, so that when he becomes Papa she won't have to worry about him rebelling the way Terzo or Secondo had. This continues into her refusal of acknowledging his proper titles and such.

Everyone's ages vary, since.. the new timeline doesn't quite line up in a way that makes sense. Which is fine, because it's a silly ass band that doesn't NEED lore, it's all for fun. FORGIVE ME I am about to ramble. In RHRN, Nihil says he is "almost 80". So at the oldest, he could be 79. That would make him 24 in the Go-Goat video. He could be anywhere from 20-24 in 1969. And while C being in his 50s and being born soon after that would make sense for his canon lore... it doesn't really factor in the three older brothers. Even if Primo was born a couple years beforehand when Nihil was possibly 19 or so, he would still only be in his 40s when he was the frontman, which wouldn't line up with the clearly 60+ y/o dude he was. There's no way he and Nihil are that close in age, so you just gotta trust me when I bullshit ages and times. For the sake of my own plot and being sort-of cohesive, Primo is usually in his early 50s, Secondo his early 40s, Terzo his early 30s... maybe you smell a pattern. Copia would be in his late 20s to be near Ter's age (at the time of the Papas's executions). I believe he begins greying in his late 30s from stress. He learns these men were his brothers, and they're all dead. He watches Nihil, his father, die. He is being suffocated by Sister so she can fully control the church however she likes. He watches her die too. And after all his accomplishments... He is still regarded as a failure. It would drive any man to start stressing the fuck out.

Anyway, there's my rambling for whenever I need it. I'll add on to this post whenever necessary. Or rewrite it.

[skele-bunny]

So I had talked about this with Hypnone about Dewdrop having his BPD splits usually directed towards Aether as he's Dew's FP...... Here's the ramble!:

Dew having a fp bpd split and not realizing after getting back from tour (stress trigger). Just absolutely head over heels for Aether again, idolizing everything he's doing, even smothering him with more physical affections then what he normally does, and just on this bliss train. It takes Aeth a second to figure out what's happening but it gets obvious when he's called in to the infirmary and Dew just drops

"Why? Why are you leaving me? What did I do?!" He just yelling, absolutely panicked and holding onto Aether before shoving him away, then back to holding him. "Don't leave me, please don't leave me." Cutting to "Fine! Fuck you, fucking leave and I don't want to see you!"

Aether just giving a quick callback while Dew is having a full meltdown on their bed explaining he has to deal with something more important. Just speaking calmly, going to one knee in front of Dewdrop.

"Firefly, I love you a whole bunch. I want you to realize you're splitting right now. Can you do that for me?"

"I'm not fucking splitting! I just missed you and now you're leaving me when I haven't done anything!"

Aether just takes his hand, wiping away his tears. "Yes, you are. I love you more than anything in this world and I'm not willingly leaving you. You know I'm on call for the infirmary all the time now, and I know you're upset, I know you're stressed out. I'm not invalidating anything you feel right now, okay? I already called them, I'm staying right here until you're better."

"But I don't want you to leave!"

"And why is that?"

And Dew is just hiccuping as his thought process slowly starts getting more clear and not just straight black, his hair no longer smoldering. "I... Because I just got home, and we only spent last night together. I'm not ready for you to go away..."

"I know, I don't want to leave either. Tell you what, how about this: you let me go to work for a while, and I'll tell them I need tomorrow off. No ifs-ands-or buts about it. We can spend the entire day together."

Takes a bit more reassurance as Dew starts crying again, but he finally agrees. Aether dresses him in his clothes, even putting his side of the beds pillows around him. Makes a quick trip to the kitchen and brings back Dew's snacks and drinks he loves, then a movie.

"Your job is to watch this movie, and when I get back you have to tell me about it, yeah?" He's smiling as Dewdrop nods back with his own smile.

"Yeah! I can do that."

Multiple kisses shared and more reassurances before Aether finally dips away. He gets back around 1 am, and he feels bad as Dew is still wide awake, now watching some random show that's on. He's just smiling, making grabby hands for Aether and instantly starts rambling about the movie, snuggled right on his chest as he just babbles and babbles.

"Then Phillip gets really upset and ended up firing Dell, and then as time passes he ends up being called back by Maggie because Phillip is in a really bad depression and they repair their friendship, and then it cuts to the first scene where they're getting pulled over and it just- AUGH! It was such a good movie!"

Aether is smiling the entire time and holding him, kissing his cheek. "I'm glad you liked it! It's one of my favorites. By the way, I got us dinner plans for tomorrow, sound good?"

"Yeah!" Dew just looking up with half a smile. "Thank you for... You know... Dealing with me."

"Hey, I'm not 'dealing with you', I'm loving you. That's what a husband does!"

[makofinz]

hello hello I NEED to know more about your werewolf slick au. I'm actually obsessed

ragghh i actually don’t have too much on it in my head as if rn !!! it stemmed from like.. a little convo in a srvr on whether chars gave vampire or werewolf vibes and i LOVE making Slick into creatures.

now i have a lot of general werewolf thoughts i can apply to her in my head bc. i think about werewolves and vampires frequently a LOT. and i fear it may be a little much for one ask, so while none of this is lore significant at all (as there is no concrete lore) i hope it is satisfactory!!! (under cut bc its. actually sort of a lot of text augh)

-mm i think the freights bein a wolf pack is silly. full moon is just. they run around and play fight and chase each other around.

-as mentioned, wolf features pop up a few days pre full moon and fade a few days post full moon, so in total, it’s arnd a week of wolf silliness. Her teeth (the ones that stick out) are part of this, so she chews a LOT in that time. she has chew toys for this bc otherwise she just tears things apart

-she sheds like crazy. like worse than any of the other freights. for some reason her fur is always around.

okay!!! general werewolf lore drop. where I think you can be born a werewolf (yk. obviously) or turned into a werewolf by being bitten. its diff than a vampire bite w/ a ton of fake biological reasons i made up but. but that’s the jist of things.

General Slick lore drop!! in my head. her and CB are siblings, where CB ended up leaving her in hopes someone else better suited would find and take care of her bc he couldnt. applying this to werewolf au is almost the same!!!

Ceeb got kicked out or separated from their original pack, took Slick with him bc it was not a good environment for EITHER of them (she was very, very little. he was mid-late teens). He could not take care of her, so ended up leaving her somewhere he hoped she’d be found by someone better equipped to care for her.

From this point on I’m still not suuper sure what events will happen in what order. But obviously, eventually she gets found by Momma, n is once again part of a pack.

-m. i think to vampires. werewolf blood can taste gross. (I usually imagine like wet dog loll). And if yk anything abt me yk how much i love shipping her w ANY of the electrics (who obv give vamp vibes). think this would be silly. (even if werewolf is showing no wolf features, blood will still vaguely taste gross to a vampire. just. slightly off. this becomes more apparent closer to full moon)

-eats raw meat even when it isnt near full moon. this doesnt make her sick, cause shes a werewolf, but its definitely odd. I think if anybody else does this too, itd be Porter. Hydra n Lumber think it’s gross. (esp Hydra, who I’ve been imagining as lab-made werewolf. Experiment to see whether it can be done n he was created.)

-as mentioned in the little doodle page. she doesnt like standing upright when transformed. she CAN, and in fact, being shorter than most werewolves, it should actually be easier for her, but it isn’t. she’s bad at it and she hates it.

-mmmmmmm shes just a big stupid puppy dog (definitely still violent to people. shes a werewolf, but much rather play than go after anyone)

-speaking of. eventually do want to draw her as a puppy. she was so scrappy and pathetic and sad looking. so easy to carry around by the scruff. idiot dog. ok. okay im done rambling lol. i like slick a lot.

& of course. cred to lovely people in srvr who inspired the drawing in the first place lolz!!!!!!! ik a lot of these thoughts might not make sense but. but trust okay.

[stayininmylane]

Okay I'm currently out but I've just seen your response to my tags about Alfendi but AUGH YES!! you get it. I will yap to you some more abt it in more detail at SOME point cause I have thought about/done a lot of research/built up my own post-canon AU for the whole idea of Alfendi being a programmed system and uggh if you're interested im more than willing to share since it's been just me and my thoughts for. A while !

Oh my god of course??? Hi!!!! I didn't think you were still on the scene and then I see you in my notifs and I see you have an art blog?? with GORGEOUS traditional art—!!!

Aaah rambling srry ^^; but yeah I would absolutely love to hear about your post-canon AU! You can tell me in the askbox or in dms, whichever way you prefer :D It's so cool to actually talk in-depth about Alfendi's system, and I'm always so excited to get to know systems so it's a double-honor to talk to you about it ^w^

I also have some thoughts myself (only informed through google research though so not the most ideal ^^;) and if you're interested I actually wrote up a little google doc about my thoughts for a pre-canon AU a while ago :3

[golden-wires]

!!!SPOILERS FOR METALOCAYLSPE ARMY OF THE DOOMSTAR!!!!! i'm going to be talking about a scene and my thoughts when first watching so please if you haven't seen scrollllll!! this is just me over analyzing a scene in my metalocalypse brain rot

this right here of Nathan SHOVING murderface back under the water really spiked the anxiousness I felt in this scene but in a invested way, they're not just half assing this like they might've done before, they are like "Get BACK under the water" if done wrong they could have killed him, there's a lot going on here omg they have to be roigh with their friend knowing that he's under someones control. so there's them being strategic with it but also a panic to get it over with, because when have they ever had to drown someone? let alone someone they are close with

then the look they all share once murderface had gone still- this short scene had no reason to be ripping my heart out /lh they could've written them all to be smiles and be like "job well done" and leave murderface in the water alone as a joke, but no we get them as the most quiet they've ever been, and saying so MUCH without even speaking, because once he goes limp there is no sigh of relief, they're tired from whats been going on so they take a moment to catch their breaths Nathan- looks the most panicked here, he doesn't know if he and the others went too far, he doesn't know if he went too far, he is already feeling the weight of it all for having messed up the song and put them all in this situation. So the idea they could have just killed one of their bandmates just like that, and so quickly while once again from him trying to do the right thing must be the most scared he's ever been, or at least ever let himself feel, and its bubbling VERY close to the surface here. Toki- he also shares a similar scared expression and looks to his more level headed bandmate (as much as skwizgaar could be) for some kind of reassurance or look that lets him know its fine and they did something right. or that murderface is okay Skwisgaar- his facial expression lets nothing out, no fear but also no answer, he also is just quietly waiting for the other shoe to drop I don't quite have the words to explain how pickles might be feeling in this moment but the overall feeling from them all is a quiet silence as they wait on baited breath to know whether in these past 30 seconds if they just saved their friend or did they all fail

the cpr scene: This is where again are SILENT but are letting a lot be said but are not saying anything out loud its so AUGH

^ and there it is, in this brief moment seeing his bandleader hunched over desperately trying to revive their bass player, not saying anything and no guitar to pick at to relieve stress- skwizgaar is scared. maybe you could say he looked to Nathan and pickles for his own reassurance but at this moment no one here has a rock to lean on and they're scared. They're never ones to say how they care or show it a lot but it's evident the way how scared they are in the fact murderface might be actually dead

Pickles solem attempt to get nathan to stop cpr, thinking that's it, that nothing more could be done this time Nathan's frustrations and fear the most prominent because he CAN'T lose again, everything coming to an ugly head here with just the four of them to witness it

their rock crumbling in front of them skwizgaar laying a comforting hand on pickles, he normally doesn't appreciate his bandmates being touchy but at this moment its an act for someone else okay rambling session over, i loved this movie

[kyruiz]

okay i need to talk about arcane season 2

a lot of thoughts and criticisms, mainly about the way stuff was written. i heard someone (i think it was tbskyen?) say that arcane is a 10/10 show, but with a few flaws that make it feel like a 7/10 because of the quality in all other areas, and i couldnt agree more, especially in regards to season 2

elaborations and my ramblings below the cut!

going to start with isha, because i have the most thoughts about her ;

i feel like she wasnt a character beyond her ties to jinx. the fact she doesn’t speak only exemplifies this. arcane usually does SUCH a good job of creating deep and compelling side characters ; marcus or grayson, for example. but isha lacks character or motivation without jinx. her life is defined by jinx and ultimately, i wasnt all that sad about her death, because, well… she felt like a tool for jinx’s development, and it didnt even feel satisfying? like… what came of isha’s death? there is nothing shown abt grieving her, either. shes not mentioned again, to my recollection. what was the point? what did isha fufill that say, sevika couldn’t have? it bothers me a lot, to have her there just to kill her off. iirc the only bits showing she was missed were decor jinx made on that air balloon device in ep 3

maddie’s character was the same for me ; i was so ready to be compelled by another marcus adjacent character, but… her motivations arent even shown, and she’s just kind of… flat? what did ambessa tempt her with? a lot left unanswered, and i feel she could have been a much better character, representing more of that acab theming. im insanely compelled by what bits we did get w her, but i wish there was more

im similarly bothered by the lack of vi development and screentime. for a character that was so prominent and a main character in season 1 she feels kind of sidelined. i wanted to see a bit more of her! it feels so awful she was sidelined, like, this whole season!

and on that same lacking screentime issue i feel the final episode needed more time. i feel like everything i have complains with stems from this issue, its such a glaring flaw. i feel like a lot was done with the time allowed but im left wanting so much more and not in a good way.

more that relates to the lack of time is how piltovers oppression of zaun isnt. acknowledged, or fixed. of course i wouldnt expect the issue to be dismantled fully in the show, but its hardly brushed on in act 3, it feels like? despite so much buildup over the rest of the show, ESPECIALLY with vi. vi is so set up to conquer this herself in season 2, and becoming an enforcer couldve been a great chance for that (for her to realize the DEPTHS of corruption, to renounce being an enforcer, to fight back herself) but. augh. i wish more was done with her. i wish she got to be more of a protector </3

and SEVIKA!!! she got NO LINES in act 3… sevika my girl :( her being on the council feels so… unsatisfying. she’s a character whos always backed the idea more than the person, always more of a follower than a leader, it does not feel… satisfying? for her to be in a position like that, to me. she executes orders and follows the idea, she is not “in charge” herself. she even followed jinx’s lead because jinx had actually stirred the uprising sevika wanted. if this was the intended route i wished we could’ve seen more about why

not to be totally negative; i love what was done with jayce and viktor, vander, and i loved ekkos moments in the show too. heimerdinger my beloved as well, and cait… cait had some real good moments, i am compelled by her. mel and ambessa, too; i’ve always loved mel, and i loved the direction with her and ambessa here, it felt satisfying and like a setup to see more of mel in the future, which im excited for on top of swain reference. and arcane is a masterful show all around ; the small references, the animation, the subtlety. gorgeous show, and i still love it, and these gripes wont stop my enjoyment, but… augh. all of this boils down to a lack of time in the final act, though specific issues like vi’s lack of screentime go a bit deeper i think

[yakuzabrainrotlive]

Part 2 to previous post! More early Infinite Wealth ramblings.

Basically just... Kiryu. Yeah. If you know me, you'll know what to expect.

KIRYU IS HOT AUGH WOOF BARK BARK GILF ALERT GONNA DIE HMMMM YUM DELICIOUS GOD BLESS

skjfkqkskw okay. got that out of my system. I kinda cracked up at this scene. Ichiban's face here. The bit with him saying Kiryu feels kinda different, Kiryu taking of his glasses and Ichiban just going OH YEAH; THAT'S THE KIRYU I KNOW. Hilarious.

At this point Kiryu saying that isn't even funny to me. Can the higher beings of this universe let him rest? Like for real??

Deal. I'll take it. Peak. Let's do it. Let's do it RIGHT NOW. This dynamic is delicious. Clawing at my walls.

My naive ass thought the Daidoji were just going "yeah, you've done enough. fuck off anywhere you want and retire while we keep an eye on you" at the end of Gaiden. They're still making him work? HE MADE YOU ¥50BIL, LET HIM GO. God, these PEOPLE. If I see 'em, it'll be ON SIGHT.

I'm very honoured to be included in the game. What a cool surprise. Don't know how RGG Studios got a live recording of my thoughts, but I don't mind.

General thoughts about this little section:

-Kiryu seems like a very broken unit in fights and I'm living for it. This man is not leaving my party as long as I can have him.

-Kiryu is... I don't know. I know age changes people's appearances, but he looks like he's lost weight. Not just a little bit either. I'm worried.
