Exploring the Digital Transformation of Your Favorite Games

The digital transformation of gaming is not just a trend; it's a revolution that's reshaping how we play, share, and enjoy games. From the tactile pleasure of board pieces and cards to the click-and-drag simplicity of digital interfaces, this transformation has touched every aspect of the gaming world. Today, we delve into how traditional games, cherished for generations, are making the leap into the digital era, with a special focus on the journey of classic games like Ludo. Join us as we explore what digital transformation means for these games and what players can expect from this new chapter in gaming.

Understanding Digital Transformation in Gaming

Digital transformation in gaming refers to the process of taking traditional game formats and adapting them for digital platforms. This evolution brings several benefits, including greater accessibility, the ability to play with friends and strangers across the globe, and innovative gameplay features that were previously unimaginable. However, this transition also presents challenges, such as maintaining the essence and joy of the original game while introducing new digital elements. The importance of digital transformation lies in its potential to breathe new life into classic games, ensuring they continue to be played and loved in a rapidly changing digital world.

Popular Traditional Games Going Digital

Several traditional games have successfully made the jump to digital, with Ludo standing out as a prime example. The digital versions of these games often enhance gameplay with features like online multiplayer modes, leaderboards, and in-game challenges, making them more engaging for players.

However, this future also presents challenges, such as ensuring digital games remain inclusive and maintaining the balance between innovation and the essence of traditional gameplay. Despite these challenges, the future of digital gaming looks bright, promising a world of new possibilities for players and developers alike.

tlou came out in 2013 and was one of the last arguably good zombie/post-apocalyptic media, but its still weird that parts of it hasnt been changed ig from that original american individualist vibe. 2 for some reason has druckmann's israeli anti palestinian politics thrown in, and then the hbo show is even more libertarian/eco facsist and its so strange how its not really challenged... like i guess its also a series of deliberate decisions, but its still kind of disappointing, esp when its rrarely spoken about

Educational Benefits of Board Games: Learning Through Play

In today's rapidly changing educational landscape, traditional learning methods are continually being supplemented with innovative teaching tools that engage and challenge students in new ways. Among these tools, board games are emerging as a powerful means of education, offering a unique blend of entertainment and instructional value. This article delves into the various benefits of integrating board games into educational settings, underscoring their capacity to enhance learning through engaging and interactive play.

Cognitive Development

Board games are not just about fun; they are a testbed for critical thinking and problem-solving. By presenting players with challenges that require strategic planning and tactical decision-making, these games sharpen cognitive abilities in a natural, engaging way. For example, games like chess demand attention to detail and forward-thinking, which are crucial skills in both academic and real-world contexts. Moreover, engaging in games that require players to remember complex rules or track multiple game pieces can significantly boost memory retention and cognitive flexibility.

Social Skills and Communication

One of the less celebrated yet equally important benefits of board games is their ability to foster social interactions and build communication skills. Games often require players to work together to achieve common goals, negotiate, share, and sometimes compete, which enhances interpersonal skills and emotional intelligence. Moreover, board games like 'Ludo' create a friendly way for players to practice patience and resilience, learning to manage both victories and defeats with grace.

Numeracy and Literacy

Board games can also be pivotal in developing numeracy and literacy skills. For younger players, games involving counting, simple addition, or pattern recognition can provide a solid foundation in math. On the literacy front, word-based games challenge players to expand their vocabulary, improve spelling, and enhance language skills through playful competition. Such games not only make learning fun but also encourage more reluctant learners to engage with core educational subjects in a relaxed environment.

Historical and Cultural Understanding

Historically themed board games can transport players back in time, allowing them to experience different eras and cultures through play. By navigating these games, players gain insights into historical events, societal norms, and cultural practices, which can complement traditional learning and inspire a deeper interest in history and geography. Games that accurately represent historical timelines and geographical settings can serve as excellent educational tools, promoting both knowledge and empathy.

Problem-Based Learning

In the realm of problem-based learning, board games excel by presenting complex scenarios that players must navigate using limited resources and strategic thinking. This type of gameplay mirrors real-life challenges where solutions are not always evident and often require a blend of knowledge, creativity, and critical thinking. Games that simulate real-world problems can help develop key skills in scientific reasoning, technological innovation, and ecological stewardship, making them invaluable in educational settings.

Adaptability and Flexibility

The dynamic nature of board games—where the state of play can change with each turn—teaches players to adapt quickly to new situations and modify their strategies as circumstances evolve. This aspect of gameplay is crucial in today’s fast-paced world, where adaptability and flexibility are key to personal and professional success. Games that require quick thinking and swift adaptation can help develop these skills in a fun and effective manner.

Board games are more than just leisure activities; they are potent educational tools that offer diverse benefits across cognitive, social, and emotional domains. By integrating board games into educational environments, educators and parents can enhance the educational outcomes for students and adults alike. As we continue to explore the potential of these games in learning, it is clear that they hold a significant place in the development of well-rounded, competent, and capable individuals. Let us embrace these tools for the unique learning opportunities they provide, and encourage their use in more classrooms and households.

Seeking His Attention | Lando Norris

Pairing: Lando Norris x Female Reader

Word Count: 1.9K

Warnings: None

A/N: This was written quite a while back on Wattpad so I thought of posting it on here. Due to it being written ages ago, there will be no sequel unfortunately. However, there’s more one shots to follow. Hope you guys enjoy .xoxo

When the doorbell rang, I assumed it would be no one else but the girls. I opened the door and was greeted by just who I thought it would be, "Hey girls" I smiled. "Hi (Y/N/N)" they greeted back as they gave me a hug. Lando stood behind them with a smile on his face. "They won't be staying the night" he said as he crossed his arms over his chest. Ciska rolled her eyes whilst Flo made her way into the house.

"Why not ?" I asked as I raised a brow. "They have some thing at school tomorrow morning" he said. "Ohh okay then that's fine" I gave him a small smile. "Yeah I guess I'll see you later then, have fun" he said as he ran his fingers through his hair. He was all dressed to go out and he didn't even mention a word about where his going...wow some best friend he is. "Thanks. You too" I waved him off as I went inside and shut the door behind me. Ciska and Flo stared at me as my back was against the door. "Tomorrow's Saturday" I said confused.

"That it is" Flo said. "Do you'll really have to go to school tomorrow morning ?" I asked in confusion. "Nope" Ciska answered. "Then what was his deal ?" I asked as I raised my hands. "You'll find out later tonight" Flo said as Ciska laughed. "Oh god well I hope you'll are right" I said as I shook my head and started walking to my room.

They trailed behind me which my bestie was quick to stand up and greet them since she was familiar with them. We decided to play a few board games such as Ludo and Monopoly which I won or dominated by the way. Oldies are goldies.

After playing a few games we decided on watching a movie, it was hard for all four of us to come to a decision but finally we decided to watch High School Musical for like the tenth time.

Just before the introduction I decided to scroll through my Instagram for a quick minute so that I didn't miss anything important.

Lando's Instagram story was the first to pop up on my list and I was lowkey eager to see what he was up to. He had posted a video of his friend trying to imitate him and surrounded by him were not only his guy friends but a few girl friends as well. My heart actually dropped at the thought of him being romantically involved with one of them and me not knowing all this time, especially thinking that I had a chance for the past 2 years.

Directly after he had reposted another girls Instagram story, it was her attempt of Carlos and Lando's 'beat drop challenge' which just made me cringe since the song didn't even get to the beat, and instead her and the friend in the video were just trying to look pretty...pathetic.

Me being curious, I decided to do some snooping through this girls account. I've noticed both Oliver and Lando follow her. Lovely. She appears to be a model, even better. Looking at a few of her posts I see that Lando already liked a few of them. One post she's seen to be naked and has a 'wet' look as if she just came out of the shower, mans had the audacity to comment a bathtub emoji on her post. Smh.

"(Y/N/N) the movie is about to start" Flo said as she nudged me. "Are y'all seeing this shit ?" I said as I continued to scroll through her posts. "Who's that ?" Ciska asked as she looked over my shoulder. "Oh I don't know, maybe your future sister-in-law" I said sarcastically. Both of them stifling a laugh, even my best friend. "Oh my god no" Ciska said. "She's pretty though" my best friend piped. "Not what I need to hear right now, thanks" I faked a smile.

"This chick didn't even do the challenge correctly and your brother gives her some fame on his story plus making her feel important by commenting, and liking her photos" I scoffed. "Awww is (Y/N) feeling jealous ?" (Y/F/N) teased. "Oh my god no" I faked a laugh. "We know you well enough by now to know when you're lying" Flo smiled. "I ain't jealous guys. If he likes this chick then I'm happy for him" I faked a smile. "Okay, whatever you say (Y/N/N)" Ciska said with a playful smile.

I looked between the 3 of them then locked my phone to place it to the side so they could continue playing the movie. As much as I tried to forget about Lando, the thought of him and that girl hanging out tonight kept crossing my mind. Ughhh.

It was getting late, almost midnight and no sign of Lando or even Oliver that they're going to pick up the girls. After the movie was over we decided to make some pancakes since we didn't know what else to eat at this hour. I decided to make the batter and the girls were going to toast them so it would be faster.

Half way through making the batter I get a phone call and it's from none other than Lando. "Oh would you look at that" I said as I glanced at my phone screen. "Oooooh" the girls cooed. I rolled my eyes and shook my head at them. "Could one of you answer instead because I'm busy" I said. Flo answered the call with a grin, "Hellooo" she said.

She then looked at me, "She's busy at the moment" she smiled. He's asking about me I assume. "You wanna talk to her ?" she asked playfully. Oh gosh. "Okay hold on" she smiled as she then handed the phone to me. "He wants to talk to you" she whispered. I stiffened as I stopped whisking and took the phone from her hand.

The 3 of them watching intently. "Hello ?" I answered. "Hey, you busy ?" He asked. "Well I was in the middle of making pancakes but you clearly have something important to say" I said sarcastically which made the girls laugh. "Uhm yeah, I know it's late but I'm on my way to pick up the girls. I'm just leaving from here so I'll be there in a few" he said. "Are you sure it's safe ? They can stay over, I don't mind" I suggested. "Nope it's fine. Give me 10 minutes" he said. "Drive safely please, speeding your way here is not worth it" I said. "I will. See you in a bit" he said lastly. "Okay byeee" I said before ending the call.

"Y'all sound like a couple already" Ciska said. "You guys need to stop" I said as I couldn't help but crack a smile and finished off making the batter. It luckily didn't take us that long after to toast the pancakes and cover them with Nutella, and some fruit as well. As we were eating we heard the rev of his car outside. "Looks like he's here" I said blandly. "That's our call" Flo said as she and Ciska got up. They both hugged me and (Y/F/N) before waving us off. "Thank you for an amazing time" Flo smiled. "Anytime" I smiled back. "Why don't you come out ?" Ciska suggested playfully. "Nah I'm fine here thanks" I giggled, I know what they're up to. "Byeee !" They yelled on their way out.

Lando's P.O.V

I was a bit upset to only see the girls come out and no sign of (Y/N). "Where's (Y/N) ?" I asked as I rolled the window down. "Inside" Ciska said. "Is she not coming out ?" I questioned. "She's upset with you so she rather stay inside" Flo said. "What did I do ?" I asked shocked. "Why did you have to post that girl on your story because now she thinks you're not interested in her you fool" Ciska shook her head as she got inside the car. "You've got to be joking" I said stunned. "You should've seen her face, poor thing thought that friend of yours is our future sister-in-law" Flo said as she pouted. "Oh my god. Shit" I said as I held my head in my hands.

"So much for trying to make things work with her this weekend" Ciska said as she rolled her eyes. "Hooter and she'll come outside" Flo suggested. I did as she told me but doing it once didn't help so I hooted 2 more times. A hot and angry looking (Y/N) stepped outside, storming towards my car as she leaned against the door. "Have you lost it ? It's past 12am and you're hooting for the whole damn neighbourhood to hear you" she said. "It's an excuse to get you to come outside" I smiled. "I'm here now, what could be so important this time ?" She asked. "Uhm...do you maybe want to go out tomorrow, like an all day date" I said.

"I would love to but I'm sure you already have someone who can replace me like that girl on your story" she faked a smile and turned around to walk back into the house. "Go after her !" the girls yelled. I jumped out of the car and caught up with her just before she can go inside by grabbing a hold of her hand. "I know what you're thinking and it's nothing like that I swear. It has and always will be you. I really like you okay ? I have for a very long time, I just couldn't find the urge to tell you since I was worried you didn't feel the same" I said as I rubbed soothing circles on her hands.

"Hard to believe that when you comment and like all that girls posts, plus you just got back from a night out with not only your guy friends but girl friends as well and you didn't tell me" she said as she crossed her arms over her chest. "Are you my girlfriend that I need to tell you everything I do and everywhere I go ?" I asked to piss her off. "You know what just go away" she said as she walked away. I wrapped my arms around her as I held her from behind. "I know you feel the same since you're clearly jealous, you don't have to say it, I just like messing with you. I'll pick you up tomorrow at 11am, don't leave me hanging" I said before kissing her cheek and running off to the car. I noticed the smile on her face when I got into the car. I hooted and winked at her one last time before driving off.

-board games-

summary : you and pierre play board games but it ends a bit different...

PAIRING : pierre gasly x fem!reader

WARNINGS : none

masterlist

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You and your boyfriend, of 4 years, pierre, were playing board games in your shared apartment. You were both siting at your dining table. Pierre was siting opposite to you.

You were playing ludo and pierre was about to win. Almost at the finish end. Only needing a one for the win, but you abruptly stood up. Pierre looked at you with a confused look. 

You glared at him as you saw the look on his face. "Please don't. Please, ma cherie." he tried to protect the board, so you couldn't flip it and throw it on the floor.

But you beat him to it. Taking the edge of the board, you flipped it. Making all the pieces fly all over the room and on the floor. He looked at you with a sad smile, but with a little smirk behind it.

"I should have never agreed to play with you." He said as he stood up. Approaching him, he pulled you into his chest for a hug.

"I’m sorry, I always let my emotions get the best of me," You mumbled into his chest. "I won't forgive you, baby."  He answered before kissing the top of your head.

Pulling your head away from his head, you glared at him. Groaning as you heard his answer. Your arms still around his torso, while you lean on his right shoulder.

You then sighed again before pulling out of the side hug, while he had a playful smirk on his lips. You glare at him again, meanwhile stepping away from your boyfriend.

He then turned away to clean up the pieces and the board on the floor. Cleaning up the mess you have made. Taking the chance, you gave his butt a smack.

His head instantly snapped towards you. You look at him for a second, but then decide to make a run for it, going into your shared bedroom, locking the door behind you.

You heard him coming near because you heard the footsteps near the bedroom door before they distanced. A sigh of relieved left your lips before you heard him coming back.

Then the door handle started to rattle. Shit. You were so screed. He had your bedroom key.

As I heard him insert the key, my heard stopped. 'Nah. Not dying today.', you thought as you saw the doorknob turn.

So you did what made the most sense to you. You went to hide under your shared bed. Right as the door opened, your whole body was hidden under the bed.

You then heard his footsteps as he stepped into the room. Shit. He kneeled down, tilted his head as he looked at you under the bed. As he saw you, he smiled.

"Come out, amore" he ordered. You refused, so he pulled you out under the bed, so that you were now under him. You looked at him confused until you felt his hands around your waist.

As you realized what was about to happen, you tried to stop him, but he was too fast. He now tickled you. Laughing as he sees as you roll around, screaming, begging him to stop.

He stopped after a while, picking you up into his arms, holding you close. You both were now facing each other. Only centimeters separating you both.

"Don't touch my ass,"  he said sternly, but having a playful smirk on his face. "But I Like it. It's nice and round. Like a ball." You answer but laughing in between your words. 

A soft laugh left his perfect lips before he rested his forehead on yours. A little later, giving you a soft kiss on your forehead and a soft kiss on the top of your head.

"Je t’aime, ma princesse." He said after giving you a kiss on your lips. I love you, my princess 

"Je t’aime plus, mon prince." You said, leaning on his chest. The place you felt at peace.  I love you more, my prince.

"But really, don't touch my ass!"

i was brainstorming alternate ways to port 999, and while the obvious way is to just make it swap between full screen text box and dialogue boxes (like 90% of normal visual novels do. including vlr) but idk, it kinda loses some of that ludo-narrative juice that just cannot be divorced from the original 2 screen format.

so i kinda fell in love with the concept of a classic pc adventure game presentation, a format where it's completely natural to have multiple windows on screen in a cool frame (and you don't have to mess with the aspect ratios of the artwork. but that might be my bias against widescreen talking lmaoo)

and so i've been putting simultaneously too much and not enough effort into making a mock-up

if it wasn't obvious, this is taking heavy inspiration from the save menu screen design.

the dialogue box would be a pop-up window so you'd get to see this design down there sometimes (my justification for putting in the effort of drawing it)

for the final puzzle, i imagine the two main screens popping out and swapping places (or giving you a prompt to swap them yourself, either with a button or maybe drag and drop?)

i haven't quite decided what to do with the upper right area... i could put the adv puzzle controls there but that might be too cluttered, so im thinking maybe there's just like a cool aesthetic detail up there?

my friends just suggested putting the inventory there, or some sort of timer/clock that shows how many hours there are left, much to think about...

[xeansicemane]

I think if Warframe was just like, a TINY bit more accessible it'd be The Transgender Game.

Because it's so Trans.

First thing that happens? You slorp out of your cozy cozy bed and a fascist wants control of your body.

The alienation and horror as you learn what, precisely, your frame even is.

Eventually coming around to care for your flesh, feeling its' scars and telling it that it's okay, you're here and ready to care.

The baddies constantly affirm that they want you dead, but want your body - they want the weapon you can be, not the scared, tired person who still stands up for themselves and their family.

Also the Event in The Second Dream is one of the most mechanically trans bits of ludo-narritive cohesion I've ever seen.

MASTERLIST

jungwon- girlfriend by avril lavigne

listen… it just fits his vibe idk what to say!

jungwon…. whoever you’re dating, he does not like them because he wants to be with you. he acts overtop and just tries to tell you “just date me.” of course you don’t think he’s serious. but he’s REALLY serious. probably best friends to lovers

heeseung- hot mess by cobra starship

need to see this man dancing to this song- anyways

heeseung has a HUGE stage presence of just like being insane right. so it leads you to believe he’s just a hot mess in relationships. that’s not true, the more you get to know him he’s just a dork with a facade. nuisance to lovers 😋

jay- vampire money by my chemical romance

good lord can you imagine him performing this song WOAAAHAAHHHHHHAHAHA

band AU. battle of the bands. you vs. jay. he performs vampire money and instead of being mad at him for the good performance you’re enthralled. especially when you’re about to go up after his performance and he smirks at you. enemies to lovers

jake- dear maria, count me in by all time low

he’s just so all time low idk what to tell you

you met him during one of the tours. it was totally by accident (he spilled his slushie on you at 2am.) immediately he was in love with you. love at first sight. tongue tied. you know how it is. but even after talking to you, he forgot to ask for your name, number, anything. so now every show he’s just looking for you in the crowd. soulmate au - strangers to lovers

sunghoon- angel with a shotgun by the cab

MY GOODNESS DID I PULL THIS FROM THE VAULT.

omg i’m imagining like a streetracer AU or something. like you’re his ride or die but you have absolutely no clue how he makes his money. you’re just happy to be around him and sunghoon would do ANYTHING to protect you. sun + moon au (grumpy x sunshine)

sunoo- cliche by mxmtoon

ITS JUST A CUTE SONG

i can imagine sunoo crushing on you and not knowing how to talk to you at all. for the first time he doesn’t know how to charm his way around things. it’s very cute and cliche. PROBABLY A CAFE AU! dumb and dumber trope

riki- love me dead by ludo

“you’re awful i love you.” he is driving me NUTS rn. so i had to pick this song. like….. i can’t even describe shit rn. this is just his song and i’m going insane that’s all you guys need to know 😇

i can imagine both you and riki bickering on and off but no matter what you don’t want anyone else to bother the other. like for example if someone makes fun of you or him, it’s game over for that person. oblivious x more oblivious

[moonsaver]

It’s me @pix3lplays back at it again, not a request, but you mentioned a SLEEPOVER with the Stellaron hunters and it isn’t leaving my head so please have some thoughts…

First of all oh my gosh just IMAGINE their pajamas I’m crying that’s so funny…Silver Wolf’s is just straight up a Pokémon onesie or something-

Kafka has some very pretty, tasteful silk pajamas with lace…

Blade. Idk I imagine he probably sleeps shirtless or something (I’m normal about his scars I swear) but if he knows they’re having a guest he wears some random t-shirt alongside his sweatpants. Like. He doesn’t care what he wears at night…it’s a t-shirt with a really bizarre Picture or incomprehensible writing on it and you’re just like ??? Okay….

The human cast? Each of them have long enough hair…for a braid train…Kafka doing something really nice with Silver Wolf’s hair…while Blade just does something basic for Kafka, and then y/n gets to experiment with Blade’s hair…if he’ll let you. Important stuff I’m telling you.

Trying to play a board game with them that results in Kafka having to use her Spirit Whisper at LEAST once to get you all to calm down. Do NOT play Uno. Blade got +four carded like five times in a row, you felt so bad for him…

PILLOW FIGHT GONE WRONG!!! SO MANY INJURIES!!! Sam and Blade took it WAY too seriously.

At least one incident of Blade asking you to smother him with a pillow.

Silver Wolf who stays up LATE. So late. You’re all watching her play a video game, and the girl just doesn’t STOP, haha. Eventually you all would like to go to sleep…not her. You try so hard to stay awake to watch her but you end up falling asleep on the shoulder of another Stellaron Hunter.

Kafka eventually makes Silver Wolf go to sleep, but Silver Wolf does that thing I used to do as a kid where I’d just. Hide under the blanket while playing my DS. That’s Silver Wolf.

Blade getting a mara flare up in the middle of the night kinda killing the mood. Sam holding him like he’s a feral animal while you and Kafka calm him down.

Sam who I’m assuming doesn’t have to really sleep? Combined with Blade waking up really early results in them waking up the rest of you by accident in the morning haha.

Cooking breakfast for the Stellaron Hunter humans…please I NEED- (don’t mind me not really knowing how to cook but I CAN make pancakes and scrambled eggs lol)

I just…need a Stellaron Sleepover. Elio needs to put it in the script, I’m BEGGING.

Hello, Pixel! Glad to see you in my inbox, hehe.

The sleepover is a very fun concept!

I think your descriptions of their sleepwear is quite spot on. As for Blade.. does.. does he sleep? I feel like.. he just only takes off his normal clothes for wash day. Otherwise he probably just has.. some ripped up, old clothing that's begging to be put out of it's misery. Kafka has to come to the rescue once again and fish out some more appropriate wear for the sleepover and force him to change into them.

As for the braid train, I love it! They're all chattering and snickering, and y/n gets to experiment with Blade's hair. I imagine they temporarily dismantle the train to look at y/n's progress on his hair, and go back into their positions after. I think Blade's hair would actually be kind of silky near the roots, and in the middle. Most likely because he uses either Kafka's, or Silverwolf's bare minimum shampoo products which is miraculous for his hair. The ends are.. crusty, to say the least. But hey! It's not everyday you get to braid and shape his hair all silly. Make most of it!

The card game.. aww. Uno is probably the only thing all of you can really play, monopoly's not interesting enough for Blade to keep his attention, and other board games like Ludo makes Silverwolf too competitive, and Kafka's tried one too many times to cheat the dice. So.. Uno's the only simple option, not like they can't cheat, but.. it's a small card game, so.. whatever. They just stay dormant. Until all of you simultaneously pulled out a +4 and Blade had to pick up almost half of the card stack.. yikes.

Pillow fighting is probably the only activity that gets Blade actively engaged,but it's not long before the threads all snap except a few and the pillow is begging for mercy, Blade swinging it with such force to the point there's only a small bunch of cotton and fabric left.. injuries are even worse than that. Sam is a hair's breadth away from shooting someone through the pillow itself. So pillow fighting is banned until both Blade and Sam learn how to take it easier.

Silver wolf staying up to play extremely late.. makes sense. She would. Forms a small tent with an ominous glow from the inside, and it's just her console. At least, she doesn't quite disturb you as much as the others.

Blade.. poor thing. He himself probably doesn't want the mara flare up. After a while of calming him down everyone's just docile and kind of concerned about his shuddering state. Except Sam, of course. Deathly iron grip. Asks if he's done and if he can go. Dude, read the room!

Breakfast! Silverwolf's definitely not awake by then. Kafka's up and ready, miraculously. She offers you.. questionable substances, if you can even call it edible. But don't worry! Just close your eyes, take a mouthful, and leave it to Kafka if your stomach feels weird. Blade.. isn't someone that's partial to cooking, but all the Stellaron Hunters quietly watch him cook from the side.. watching him struggle a bit, but manage to cook an average breakfast with a few burnt sides. And of course, y/n gets first dibs.

Check my DNI before you interact, thanks.

arch, 18+, EN/中文. HP sideblog, primarily art/writing. Mainly TMR & tomarrymort, possibly other ships. FUB free.

Tom Riddle Jr is my #1 wretched maladjusted babygirl.

Switch shipper. Multishipper. Most anything goes. AO3.

No reposts as-is. Do not profit off of my work. Do not use my work for AI. Certain non-commercial 'fun' uses permitted. See art usage policy.

Nothing under the cut really matters, but you can read it if you like.

I think DNIs are stupid and infantile.

I also enjoy whatever other TMR ships fanfics can convince me of, including, but not limited to: riddledore, volbus, tomoine, whatever it is you call TMR/Grindelwald, etc.

I'm not a fan of OC ships, or Y/Ns, or self-inserts.

Once more: TMR is my abhorrent little meow meow. Unproblematic, untoxic, and beatific. He deserves to kill, maim, manipulate, gaslight, and check off the entirety of an abusive behaviour list. He should also get his arse handed to him, severely, and spend eternity being flayed in a circle of hell.

I think he's enormously tragic. I love a nice tragedy.

I do not care what you ship, whether you are interested in self-shipping, whether you want to interpret my ambiguous ship art as top/bottom Tom, et cetera.

You don't have to enjoy everything I enjoy, obviously. On the other hand, if you like none of it, why are you here?

Music:

My pitch for a TMR song is O Fortuna.

Also consider the Sibelius violin concertos in D minor. The suite, too, is very lovely.

Sibelius, Violin Concerto in D minor, Op 47, II. Adadio di molto.

Miscellany:

I dislike the majority of baked sweets. And also just sweets.

Having conquered the abject loathing of cakes of my childhood, they have consequently been relegated to the category of "seriously disliked".

I had codeine tylenol when I had my wisdoms taken out. It sucked.

My typing WPM caps out at approximately 150-160. Tragically, I write at a staggering 10-15 WPM.

Despite the board up there, I actually do like Dumbledore. :)

HOW THE BOYS PLAY LUDO WITH EACH OTHER AND YOU

rules of the game: the goal is to have your four tokens inside the your columns. your opponents can impede your progress by stepping onto the same square as you and sending you back to the homebase ("blocking"). in some variations, two dices may be used, and rules can differ even between related families—for example, getting another turn after blocking a token or after getting your own to homebase. it can accomodate only four solo players.

— pairing: [mostly platonic] modern-day love interests & little painter/you

— word count: 977

— tags: none

— author's note: it brings me great joy that ludo is an actual activity in the itinerary. for me, ludo has always been what monopoly is to other people—breaker of bonds, with at least one person liable to flip over the board. i have no idea if someone else has done this before, but enjoy!

would not harm anyone unless backed into a corner; alkaid

Alkaid is perhaps the most civilized player at the table. Even as the rest of his companions holler for him to block someone's advance, he will always choose the less bloody option, unless it is the only move he can make or if someone's win [not you] is all but guaranteed and everyone else is indisposed of at the moment.

He will always apologize as he offers the loser their token back, and gracefully accepts his own losses with a smile. His preference for teaming up is with you, and his second most common team up is Clarence. He believes yellow is his lucky color, as he often ends up on the board before his peers—though he usually sabotages the wins that are handed to him on a platter.

Most often, he lets Clarence explain his options for a turn and decides his choice based on what is most beneficial for you. This often results in Lars having to physically restrain himself from bashing his head into the table, since Alkaid's playstyle is in direct opposition of his.

knows which tokens are on the chopping block, only makes use of that knowledge if it can earn him another roll; ayn

Ayn is a very competitive player. He has his next moves decided before the dice are handed over to him, and can quickly recalculate his next actions if the roll is suboptimal. Mercy is not a word present in his vocabulary—if he notices an opening, he will make use of it, especially if it's against you, often resulting in almost everyone banding against him. However, he's already against everyone, so it doesn't bother him.

He doesn't like teaming up with people, but he does demand a game of having you on his team on occasion for "fairness". He also often complains about how long you and Alkaid take in terms of deciding how to move due to his own speed—and he's absolutely a sore loser, particularly if first place went to Lars.

His preferred color is red, and he often has some of the best luck—and often the worst, as he remains the only person to successfully get three rolls of double sixes more than once, which constitutes the end of his turn without any movement on his part.

self-sufficient and absolutely ruthless, often goes easy on you; cael

Cael can be accurately described as a mix of Alkaid and Ayn. He enjoys blocking tokens whenever he can, but unlike Ayn, he enjoys taunting his opponents and he refuses to touch your team whenever possible. Often times, like Alkaid, he has to be consoled if he ends up going against you—though his intentions are decidedly less pure.

His preference is to be paired with you whenever possible, but he often ends up paired with Lars—which you find morbidly funny. Like Godheim, they often clash due to their opposing stances. If the token in their way belongs to you, Ayn often adds them to his hitlist because they take up quite a bit of time in bickering over their next move.

His preferred color is blue. He is usually never the first person to come onto the board, but he is also never the last part—which is a distinction that usually falls on you. However, he often has bouts of bad luck where he ends up with suboptimal rolls at the start and end of the game.

often takes the time to help other players [mostly you and Alkaid], just happy to hang out with friends; clarence

Clarence is an absolute sweetheart and actually a decent player. He could absolutely take the troublesome trio [Ayn, Cael, Lars] on, and does so whenever you and Alkaid hang back. But he often encourages you and Alkaid to block his tokens and often hands out the best moves without requiring anything in return—and Lars often teases him for it.

He's most often left with the color green, as all the other choices are always taken. Often, he pairs up with you or Alkaid, which Ayn encourages as it greatly speeds up the game. Among the group, he also has the distinction of being the only one who gets sad if he doesn't end up in a team, so Lars will sometimes give up his favorite spot to hang out with him.

The first time everyone played together, there were a few minor arguments about the ruleset since everyone grew up playing it differently. As he was the one who led them all to create a rulebook that still gets periodically updated, he's often the referee during any minor disputes—often caused by Ayn or Cael, who are quick to roll their dice on their turn, even if someone else has just barely finished their move. He values Lars' counsel during these moments.

self-sufficient, but enjoys pointing out the many ways in which someone can block a token; lars

Lars is chaos incarnate. If the table is yelling and screaming, he's having the time of his life. He's aware of the tokens on the board at all times and often uses that information to inform others of an optimal move—which often puts him on Ayn's hitlist since he ends up ruining Ayn's plans. Like Ayn, he always has his next moves prepared ahead of time and he often bargains when he is either asked to show mercy or offers it himself [usually to you, but sometimes, he takes pity on Alkaid and Clarence too].

He has the most variable luck among everyone. Sometimes, his run will be smooth sailing, and other times, he will have to carefully claw his way to victory with ones and twos. Despite that, he's often competing with Ayn and Cael for first, while everyone else prepares themselves for a poor showing. Very often, he's the one to suggest continuing the game until everyone has their own placements as he just enjoys the chaos.

His preferred color is also blue, hence why he often ends up paired with Cael. He rarely pairs up with you, mostly because he's the only person on the table capable of inciting a true competitive response from you—as opposed to a desire to merely keep up, like with Ayn or Cael.
