#and they see me as a 12yo

[anaalnathrakhs]

im not saying its WORSE or anything but having permissive parents is also an incredibly weird kind of leash. i CAN do anything i want technically, and they'll accept it, but they'll also shit their pants in fear if i do anything but go to school and hang out downtown until 6pm. one time my mom INSISTED to come get me with the car less than a full kilometer away from home bc she was scared for me. and here i was, in my sluttiest outfit, sitting in my mom's car at 1am, because of course mother cannot go to sleep if the child is not back in the nest for tonight. i have a door to the outside in my room, i have the key, i can leave anytime i want. but i remember when i was fully nocturnal and i'd return from a little walk in the neighborhood at 5am and my mom would just look at me like i just told her i swallowed the whole medicine cabinet. i dont want to hurt my parents. i also dont want to be providing a detailed roadmap of everything i intend to do while out. that's what i mean when i say i feel like moving out would fix me.

So Incubus was touring Australia at the same time as Sleep Token. And I do wonder - did any of them catch a show? Does Vessel even like Incubus? Will he ever cover Love Hurts? Pretty please?

hi. if you've made "headcanons" where you age up one character or age down another so that your ship can work out, that implies that the actual difference between ages is so bad and significant that makes the ship weird. because, yeah, a 15 year old being interested in starting a relationship with a 12 year old is very questionable at best. that's the way I see it at least. and it fucking grosses me out.

[tired-and-unjellied]

it would be nice if Yuno was aro. It could be a story about feeling lonely as an aro person cuz of that lack of proximity, but she still wants to indulge in her sexual drive, and casual dating gives a level of intimacy you can't quite find in hookups, without the whole romance and love thing of romantic relationships.

So...like does anyone just not see the creative potential for Yomih (Your only move is hustle)?

Like...I see one dude doing "cinematic" stuff, and like, bro. This is a tool you could very easily use to make essentially Power Star tier stuff on the fly.

Make some unbalanced characters and go balls to the walls man, people going "unbalanced and not fun to fight" in the comments on cool looking shit, like on god, On God, you play this? Unironically? When you can be Creating? ...Oookay...

I've been experimenting with characters, and how to make shit cinematic and not just a mess of slaps you can barely make out, it's hard, but you absolutely could do it, especially if characters were being made specifically FOR such a concept. Because of the way the game works, you can basically animate on 2s and 3s. Not actually but, you'll kinda see a "gaming" format of such a concept that does work, better on like...6s and 9s honestly.

Some more editing tools, better UI please dear god it's so bad, a better camera, being able to adjust it's position for replays and make replays essentially little editing project files you can adjust and play on the fly, and send to other people to play on their own computer (You're seeing the potential right?), possibly even just slowing down shit at times, would exponentially make this a format people would devote alot of time too. Straight up I don't even see a point in anything but making replays, so, expand upon that, there's a real marketable part here that's actually good for people with the modding community, someone, anyone, how is not one other soul than me and some dude on YT seeing the potential man.

I guess if you were to argue against it, it'd be "cheap" compared to the sprite fight animations of today and yesterday, but I don't care. Throw some Sonic Sprites and OCs n shit in there, have them slap each other, pause for dialogue occasionally, and literally just make something that looks flashy and cool.

Idunno it's just bizarre, one of the few, possibly only times I can really say "Nah man, you're playing this game the right way, and you should be the wrong way"

That's not to say "abandon everything for my idea" just, it's pretty, pretty damn close dude, it's almost perfect in so many ways. Just expand on some creative tools and I assure you this game will absolutely blow the fuck up with everyone.

You cannot look me, in the Fucking, the God Damn Eyes, and tell me, that a majority of people, would not want to make Power Star tier fights On the God Damn Fly.

And it's right there. It's just...not being...fucking expanded on! How?!?!? How do people play this unironically?!?!? Everyone should've gone "Hold up, you made, you made a game, out of this, you made an On The Fly, Sprite Fight Animation Tool, and made it a Fucking Game???"

How does this happen! Oh my god! Is it really that easy? Like, to take something, and just not do the very thing that God Wanted From Us? More Sprite Fight Animations? That you can Fcuking Cook Anywhere because it can Run on A FUCKING TOASTER!? AND IT'S MORE STABLE THAN ANY ADOBE PRODUCT-

GOD

PLEASE

THE POTENTIAL

multiple people have been complaining about my takes on luz's mom... like ok first of all i never disliked her, not once. believe me, when i don't like a character, i'll say so.

but to get to the point, camila's role in the story is complicated. and you aren't supposed to automatically know exactly what she's thinking. the show opens with the concept of "local middle school weird girl is being sent to bore-ification camp by her mom who wants her to be less weird". that's a scenario that a lot of neurodivergent people can relate to, yours truly included.

a lot of the time irl talks about autism focus on how difficult it can be for the parents, to the point where for a lot of us it's exhausting just to hear someone bring it up. bc we know it's tough on the parents, but it's tough on us too. but in camila's case, it's handled really well. whether luz is autistic or adhd or both or neither, we're not shown a mom who hates her daughter for being true to herself, we're shown one who's concerned about her child's future and just wants what's best for her. you never get the impression that there's anything but love between them. and this show doesn't exactly skimp on the mommy issues.

that said, the story follows luz. so when she's being sent off to camp, you see how upset she is by it, how she feels that who she is is being rejected. as an adult, it's easy for me to understand where camila is coming from. but when i was 14? no way in hell.

luz's mom is probably one of the best fictional moms i've seen in a long time, kids' show or otherwise. her relationship with luz is a lot like mine with my own mom (except unlike luz i do not speak spanish fluently, and my spanish is limited to what little bits my mom drops in here and there). my mom has also sent me off to places for my own good (not sure how many of y'all were here when i got shipped off to wilderness therapy, but... that was A Time), has also had difficulties with accepting me for who i am, and sometimes needs to take a step back and let me explain where i'm coming from.

camila is a flawed person and an imperfect mother. this is actually extremely normal. she has made mistakes and bad decisions. this is also normal. acknowledgement of this, be it in meta or jokes i make while watching the show, is not an attempt to demonize her, to give off the impression that i personally dislike her, or even to imply that she's a bad mom. i have, and this is true, been making jokes about all of the characters this entire time.

but all that aside, for the majority of s1 and a good chunk of s2, we don't see camila. she's spent most of her time as a character so far as more of an idea, as a goal for luz to reach - getting back home to her mom. to be clear, before she pops back up in s2e10, all we've seen from her is her sending her kid off to sad camp and her not realizing that there's a fake luz (which i'd say is justified bc like. why the fuck would she have any reason to think the girl who looked and sounded exactly like her daughter was anyone other than her daughter???). that isn't really a lot to go on.

tldr: i am watching this show for the first time after avoiding as many spoilers as i could. i do not have prior knowledge of these characters. let me consume the story at my own pace and stop expecting me to know things that haven't happened for me yet.

also yes i have been keeping up with the reboot but i haven’t been livereblogging mostly because i’m enjoying it too much to pause to take and post screenshots. thoughts:

- while I still think the change to Mint’s story was weird and unnecessary and we could have had her big moment with Zakuro without making her the first mew mew and changing all of that, I DO absolutely love how those scenes not only fleshed out both Zakuro and Mint, but absolutely made Zakuro just as gay for Mint as Mint is for Zakuro. Like wow they dialed the lesbianism up to 11. good for them!!

- despite the above i’m not crazy about most of the changes to Mint’s character. They removed her ballet entirely, it feels like, and I just want her to be a rude mean girl. I think they made her Too Nice in this version.

- they made Kish SO much creepier in this reboot and I’m not sure how I feel about it lol. still love him tho

- i almost cried when I saw Taruto. Son boy. Boy son. son boy allowed. I missed my shitty little child.

- I LOVE what they’re doing with Ichigo and Masaya’s relationship in this adaptation. I feel like they’re giving Aoyama some much, much needed development and while I always thought Masago was a pretty solidly written, healthy relationship, I feel like they’re giving Masaya some more inner thoughts development which makes the relationship feel a lot more even, like they’re BOTH very visibly into each other. In the manga and the original adaptation, early scenes with Masaya and Ichigo were almost entirely from Ichigo’s perspective, so it was sometimes hard to gauge Masaya’s feelings for Ichigo.

i probably have more but that’s the gist for now. looking forward to a lettuce episode next time!!

Ya’ll listen I have this terrible feeling the end of Journeys is going to make me ugly cry
