hello lil ghost!!! my fav color is yellow and purple is a close second! I will wear a friendship bracelet on my funny little shell with pride lol.

also that cloak sounds rad as hell. I feel like I would always forget what was in there hahaha (terrible memory on this one, lads). but more power to you! get those pockets! shove in those blorbos!

and okay so my bard! he's really into reading and learning and is VERY curious by nature. he is decently good aligned, though might make some decisions that don't seem good at first. he's also kinda nosy lmao. I'm romancing Gale and at first I thought my bard would be a nice grounding presence for him. But Gale has such big, wistful, magical ideas and a lot of hubris, and he's REALLY good with words, so at some point my bard got fully sucked into the grand ideas. now they're kind of making each other worse haha. also in my head, my bard is like 5'3" (he's also trans because he's just like me fr). but I'm in act 3 now (final act)! so I'm excited to finish my first playthrough hehehe

-🐌

HECK YEAH yellow and purple are very nice <3 if I had little charms I'd put a snail and a little wizard hat on there perhaps tehehee

YEEE to be fair I would also completely forget what was in what pocket too lmao,, my wizard has the benefit of an 18 intelligence but I do Not. I put on regular two-pocketed coats and I'm like wow I completely forgot I had these things in here. *pulls out a random chain, a bubble wand, a petrified lemon*

OH YESS I love me some curious learned folks <3 Your bard seems cool already!! KSJFLhjslfjLHKJSH him tryna be a grounded presence for Gale but then getting indoctrinated into his dreams and beliefs.. SUCH A MOOD KJSKLFHJ. We love a couple that's a bit Bad for each other ahahahah <3 <3

you 🤝 amrynn 🤝 me being 5'3" and gender-not-normal ehehehehhee

For real I am SUCH a big supporter of giving OCs similar identities to yourself because <3 self care babeyyy kfjlhkdjfhdf. And me I have like 400 identities so I've gotta have 400 OCs.. (a slight exaggeration but still adfjhldf)

Oooooh I am CERTAINLY super excited for you for the ending! I hope it goes well and is satisfying!! Are you planning on doing another playthrough after that and if so are you gonna go for Halsin or Wyll perhaps 👀

ok but im rly into the idea of till having a new era that brings the light back to his eyes and drives him forward if he gets to escape the arena. idk where he'd go from there but i want to see ivans sacrifice both haunt him and drive him to actually live his damn life after being the captured bird refusing freedom cause of mizi. once he knows she's alive with the resistance he might be able to actually experience other things and widen his world and if that happens and he puts his personal sense of rebellion towards the human cause OR settles into finding some other way to feel fulfilment that isn't a single person that could be deeply fascinating to me i think

When your friend needs you to be there to comfort them, but you have no energy for serious conversations and so you're stuck wondering if youre being a selfish asshole or if youre justified in not wanting to be the one to sort their problems out

Sonic underground does have an ending in Sonic Universe Issue 50, it follows the scraped script for the final episode and has the triplets turn Super. The Super forms are nice because they aren't all gold but it's kinda goofy because they're instruments turn Super with them.

im gonna be real with you ive read the entirety of archie sonic including spinoffs and side comics and i do Not remember this happening at all

i love the continuing saga of danny being diagnosed trans/aro via splerf guns. this is really how it feels when ur oblivious to ur inner workings

That's just what happens when your dad tells you to use your trans older brother as your masculinity role model and also no one ever told you that flirting is romantic and not just for making people smile and blush. You need a splerf dart to the head to piece together that Most People Aren't Like This Usually

MAJOR SPLATOON SPOILERS UNDER THE CUT!!! <this is mostly a caution for my friend whos going thru splatoon rn lolz hi Bee if ur reading this

screenshotting this post w/out the url and im turning rbs off cuz i dont wanna start beef, but like. i have never seen a more stupid fucking opinion of rotm. are you fucking kidding me.

first of all, the conflict between inklings and octarians was one-sided in modern times. it was simply a suffering civilization trying to take revenge on on whom they believed to be their enemies, not even knowing that the war they had fought is long dead and the inklings that inhabit the surface would welcome them with open arms. because, let me get one thing very clear: all of the weird racism metaphors in octo expansion are literally just a result of poor translation with the original being nowhere NEAR as overt in how they portray octolings as a sort of "stand-in" for the struggles that poc face irl. obviously, theres some tension between the two species, but there was never a story thread about this conflict. ya feel?

(^THIS SECTION IS WORDED WEIRDLY AND ISNT ENTIRELY REFLECTIVE OF MY OPINIONS ABOUT THIS PORTION OF THE GAME CUZ IM SLEEPY!!!!)

second of all, are we forgetting the part where the splatlands WERE effected by the Flood? it literally flooded the entire land!!! but instead of this dividing the people who inhabited it, they came together and drained it. drained it into Alterna. which is WHY we see these different tribes lasting in modern day with Deep Cut, why we see inklings and octolings living side-by-side with zero tension, and yet recognition and celebration of each others differences. is that not beautifully poetic?

we even see the fact that octarians have integrated back on the surface with the technology being used, particularly the use of floating machines! theres even octarian language on the splatana stamper! all of this life that was breathed into the game is all around you and it takes so little effort to just look!

i just wanna make one thing clear: so far, ALL of splatoons hero modes have been caused by humanity, be it directly or indirectly. in splatoon 1 and 2, we see the long-term effects of octarians living underground for 100 years rear its head and lash out, trying to survive. conditions underground are harsh. why are they underground in the first place? they lost the great turf war. a fight for land due to the rising sea levels. which was LITERALLY CAUSED by a nation 12000 years ago dropping a bomb on Antarctica as an intimidation tactic, as well as general global warming reaching a tipping point after wwV.

octo expansion? a broken machine left behind by humanity goes insane in its loneliness and tries to perfect the new intelligent life after sitting and watching for so long. splatoon 3? the last mammal, in its grief, tries to regain what he has lost.

the entire franchise is about letting go of the past, living in the moment, and looking forward to the future. half the songs naming conventions are based around momentum. its now or never.

how can you not see how this game has built its world so beautifully? it just makes me sad to think about

people are entitled to their own opinions, and its fine if you didnt like splatoon 3's story. but why are you, in a game franchise that ends with the line "the times have changed. the world can never be as it was. moving forward... is the future" so stuck in what could have been?

NO BUT REALLY where the fuck is julius. do you know how hard it is for me to whump ludger during the game's events and i'm stopped by the part where julius has every reason and motivation to be present and just ISN'T??? (even chronos chasing him for like four waymarker chapters and another exodus attack doesn't make sense for chronos) i know julius' character profile in the encyclopaedia implies he just couldn't bring himself to face ludger and answer but its just that the entire game is structured around not letting these two talk to each other or else the entire plot would fall apart and i just [bloody stick figure biting] how am i supposed to write ludger suffering without julius when it doesn't even make sense to me that julius would have zero contact with ludger.

*lies down* i love x2 very much but there's a reason why a grand total of none of my finished fic ideas happen during canon 😂

anyway maybe that jogs your memory of what you were thinking cheers

😂😂😂 ok i think i wondered about. maybe him doing some of his hiding in some fds on and off, for various purposes not necessarily limited to avoiding the cops (and his little brother) (should those be switched? 'his little brother (and the cops)'?). they could have had something useful for him in theory. idk how plausible that is since all the fd information should have gone straight through spirius, but also the man is very tech-savvy so who knows maybe he built a backdoor so he gets heads up when fds pop up or whatever that might not necessarily be canon speculation, it may be some kind of subplot in an au or something LOOOL i really dont remember....
