#ari plays enstars

[athela-3]

Yep. Another Madara pic/gif dump. Because I was quite excited over obtaining his new outfit and put it to work immediately, and why not?

No gifs of Kohaku yet, because I only recently managed to level his card enough, but he has pics as well~

ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ HI !!! I'm Ari (or link), and welcome to my about section.

I'm a severely multifandom creative trying to get back their motivation for writing. I'm 21 and a lesbian. I love playing video games, and I do enjoy some shows/anime from time to time.

Fandoms I'm in:

Legend of Zelda, Resident Evil, The Last of Us, Enstars, Detroit Become Human and **Genshin. There are more but these are likely the only ones I'll write for.

new additions: yellowjackets :)

Ships I enjoy and may write for are revalink, miphzel, shumika, shunazu, eimiko, beigguang, chiscara, and some more I can't think of off the top of my head.

I'll edit the above list as my fixations change (and trust me they will), but this is just a baseline list of stuff I'll likely write for. Also I do self-ship and might write reader inserts. Be cringe be free y'know.

**so, technically I'm not really into genshin all that much anymore, and haven't played since Sumeru was announced, but I do still care about the characters that I like and might write about them regardless.

slight warning : mentions of food

this is kind of long so it can help you relax if you want to do this!

[ one ] tell me the first song that made you stan your current fave group and why did your faves attract you so much?

wave // ateez

when jane showed me and fely (she already stanned ateez) the mv i was like :00 this song is really good and it goes with my type of music; pumped up and really fun. i decided that i wanted to stan them because of this introduction video that they did during pirate king where san broke the toy hammer trying to smack yunho’s ass SHHSSIJS,, i found them really funny and comforting! they made me so happy and that’s why they attracted me so much. + their amazing music ofc 

forever // exo

alright so i originally just casually listened to exo from wolf era up till 2017 when the kokobop teasers came out. they looked really pretty and so i watched them up till kkb was released. it’s what baekhyun’s voice in the forever teaser that captured me into stanning them. everything about the exo’s attracted me, their vocals, their dancing and ofc their visuals. bonus: their time on the ‘360 show(??)’! im not sure of the actual name for the programme but it was where yixing kept pronouncing jurassic park wrong pls that was so cute and funny how could you NOT stan them!

[ two ] answer the ten questions given by the previous person and write 10 of your own for the next person!

what’s your favorite season and why?

we only have two types of seasons here but if this includes western seasons, i would pick spring! flowers give me a sense of calmness whenever they start to bloom so being in a season where it’s just different coloured plants all around you? sign me up pls

are you a cat person or a dog person?

im a cat person! i currently have two cats as pets

what’s your current favorite song and why can’t you stop listening to it?

it would probably be fever by ateez! this is because it gives off freedom vibes and i’ve been stressed lately so the song is a little oasis for me

if you had the ability to do either of the following, would you rather change something in the past or see into the future?

i would choose to see into the future so that i could change what i do now, whether its related to me being lazy or me being selfish,, i would like to keep the past the way it is even if i had some scarring moments. it’s nice to look back on those and see how far you’ve come as a person.

what’s your favorite movie?

my favorite movie would either be spirited away or paper towns,, i actually don’t have a favorite movie because all of them have affected my life in different ways so yea :D

what did miss rona ruin for you this 2020?

probably the food fair this year,, my group of best friends were supposed to go there to celebrate jane and another friend’s birthday. the food fair happens yearly so it wasn’t anything big to anyone else, but to us it was something special. there are a lot more things but this was one of the major things she ruined :/

what’s your favorite album? (you can name one for each genre you like or you can just name one, it’s up to you.)

toffee why my top three would be day6’s sunrise, bts’ you never walk alone and lauv’s ~how i’m feeling~

if you could talk to your past self (person who lived your past life), what would you tell them?

“hey, dude, i hope you’re doing okay. stop being so selfish all the time alright? and stop comparing yourself to others, it wouldn’t do you any justice. make sure to spread A LOT of positivity even if no one acknowledges it. its okay to cry sometimes too. is my soulmate doing okay? i hope they are. i’ll make sure to find them in this timeline, and the next. whatever it takes. learn to love yourself.”

do you have a go-to person? who is it?

uh i dont have a go-to person,, i can’t vent or rant without feeling like burdening the other person or spreading negativity to them. instead i just kind of rant to myself on discord.

if you could tell your younger self something, what would you say?

“hey, kiddo. don’t fall in love too much nor fool around. it’ll affect you badly. appreciate the things your parents do for you, okay? don’t take anything for granted. ignore the people who call you names, they don’t matter here in the future. just be you.”

how do you spend your free time?

who or what is your biggest inspiration?

if you were a character in a horror movie, which stereotype do you closely resemble? and why?

your top 3 fanfiction tropes! (can be nsfw)

do you believe in soulmates and why?

painting or sketching and why?

what is on the top of your to-do list right now?

list down the top 3 things that make you happy.

who are you simping for right now?

what is your first core memory?

✮ ━ top three favorite muses that you’ve played

we’ll find a title for this… later | accepting@subserviiient

I’m going to exclude my active enstars muses here because it says “played” and I’m still playing them. haha~ this got a bit out of hand, I am sorry.

1. Shion ( Saint Seiya Hades Arc / The Lost Canvas )

I loved my sheep son. I loved him so much. Shion was a quite interesting muse to play; he appeared in different arcs of the story which were like 200 years apart. If I remember right he was over 200 years old when he appeared for the first time. He also had a arc in which he was a forced antagonist and that was damn nice. He’s so soft and he’s a aries and even though I gave up on him two years ago I still love this boy a whole lot. Many funny and nice memories were made in this time ♥

2. Jun ( Enstars eyyy )

Okay so, Jun happened a little after Summer Live and you don’t know how much fun it was because he’s so good. There was little info but people were there who wanted to interact with him and it was a real good time. But things happened and I felt like I had no other choice but to delete his blog. So I did and he’s gone. I still miss him but hey, Ibara’s there now and the reason for losing Jun is gone too~

3. Manaka ( Nagi no Asukara )

This one’s kanan’s fault. She had her Chisaki and she convinced me to play Manaka. She’s probably the most adorable girl I’ve ever written (note: i’ve written three female muses so far, including her lol). The anime/ manga still do mean a lot to me and god I’d love to have a NagiAsu AU for my boys. But yeah, Manaka was a pretty fun and adorable one to write. 

[athela-3]

Little screenie-dump of Jun-kun in his new outfit, because I wasn't expecting to reach 2m points and thus two MV gems on a literally ten-day-old account, so you bet I'm gonna enjoy the fruit of my labour~

Things I've discovered suit him, thus far: the Koi wa Primavera limited Valentine's SPP, Sustain Memories' bouquet, No Name Yet's sakura tree, and having Crossing×Heart outfit wearers as his background dancers 🤭

[athela-3]

I call this gif: "my oshis waving me goodbye from the gacha pool as I yet again fail to bring them home" 😅

Well, at least Madara is still missing. Hokuto… came home as starter. Again 🤣 I was gonna reroll between Trickstar and Double Face gachas to see which of my duo will come home first, and he answered immediately. And then reappeared via current gacha 4*, while I only have a random 3* of Madara's. Which brings us to my current home screen:

Hokuto is all dolled up, his outfit even kinda suiting the backdrop, but Madara, didja fall into a fountain outside or something, why are you sopping wet 🤣

[athela-3]

I downloaded JP!Enstars to play stuff not available (yet) on EN, and the cover songs in particular… but then I remembered this beatmap, so of course I had to spam it~

So. Much. FUN! And now my JP account has zero songs on Easy and Normal, only a handful songs unlocked at all, and suddenly Emerald Planet Special 🤭 Can't wait to get this in EN~

(Next stop, PFC-ing this, or Majestic Magic Special? 🤔😏)

[athela-3]

What's the first thing I did when I got Madara's DF outfit unlocked? Why, made him do the SPP in Ketsui no Yaiba, of course~

Nope. I have nothing to say for myself. Actually, I'd prefer Black Ships outfit for this… or maybe Thunderous Festivities, or even Succession Match, but alas they need (1) a bit of whaling, and/or (2) time travel.

[athela-3]

Welcome home, Madara~

Hmmm, I've got a few thousand diamonds left and no song event or gacha I'm aiming for in the next few months… wonder if I have enough gems (and time) to go for another copy 🤔

[athela-3]

Welp.

Yet another high pity Mona spook 🥲 If she wants to crash, can't she do it earlier at least, not in the 70-somethings again…?

Been some 60-70 pulls, and neither Shenhe nor a single Mika has arrived. Diona woulda been c7 if she could overcap, and Sucrose c8. Gonna keep trying of course, but for now, if nobody got me,

I know Hokuto got me, can I get an amen?

[athela-3]

I think I did OK, all in all! 😅

My score kinda plateau'd towards the last couple days, with any new high score only being incremental raises from the previous one, but I also had an absolutely wonderful time with the single most insane beatmap I've ever played, so it's all good!

The high score + the best combo I could get:

I really wanted to get the 97.5% Amazing!! badge, but alas, this was the best I could do during the Live Challenge period 😝

Bonus: Since I just played the event with whatever lineup I already had on the MV screen, I actually had these guys with for the entire event:

[athela-3]

So, I started playing Enstars.

They let you summon your first idol pretty early into the tutorial, and tempted as I was to scout from MaM just for the hilarity of a guaranteed chara, I decided to mash the Trickstar button in the end.

The screen went black (which got me worried for a sec).

Then, I heard a voice.

A very familiar voice.

YOU AGAIN??? 🤣🤣🤣

Of course. Of bloody course I get a 5* and it has to be you. Honestly, what was I expecting.

(Oh, and if anyone wants to be friends, find me at 5264813259~ You'll know it's me when you see my blog tagline there, heh.)

[athela-3]

It's fine weather today~!

And that cost me rather less diamonds than anticipated, too! Sure, the event itself gave dias which I then promptly breezed through while grinding, but I ended up with about… 3.5~4k dias less than what I began with? That's much less than what my horrendous Enstars luck would have me spend for a gacha 5*!

Now he's max levelled, bloomed, and on 96% Idol Road progress. VIP pass, lezzgo~!

[athela-3]

My favourite Enstars experience is when I repeatedly fail to full combo a song, and then one day open the app, immediately go to that song, and get it full combo'd in one try.

Bonus points if I then can't do it again 🤭

[athela-3]

I was playing random songs while slotting people around willy-nilly and was caught totally off-guard when Hokuto pulled out a sword all of a sudden. But when he did this pose, I realised it reminded me of a certain someone else...

Turned out Souma (who's supposed to be in the slot I put Hokke in) just carries a sword everywhere, including onstage, but it sure was a surprise 😅
