it's actually kind of funny how like. the second duckling squad of taub/kutner/13 get along much better than the first one. like chase and foreman and cameron barely liked one another for a long time. cameron and foreman both loved letting chase know he was a privileged idiot with daddy issues. chase and foreman both call cameron insufferable and annoying. cameron and foreman had arcs about their beef. when house asks cameron about his bedside manner she says "worse than usual." foreman openly told chase repeatedly he did not like him. cameron and chase got along slightly better by comparison, but only because they both hated foreman more and were less likely to have major arguments. and then they started fucking and got all toxic lesbian everywhere so?? improvement??

and then you have the new gang and like. taub and kutner are best friends. 13 is more aloof but gets along with them great. they all hang out and eat lunch together. like i bet 13 one time got an article published in a medical journal and kutner bought a supermarket cake and taub sincerely was happy for her and cameron and foreman were just SEETHING

I was re reading a bit and looking back camp half blood DEFINITELY has some sort of hazing going on.

Cause you look at characters like Percy and Piper and start to wonder.

Like, a LOT of people forget, but Percy was NOT well liked when he got to camp. He was the newbie, unclaimed, AND he was getting attention because he killed the Minotaur. Clarisse wasn’t the only one out to get him. It took Percy until the third book to get the reputation that he as with the campers because they didn’t like him.

He was mocked for everything, for being a new kid, for not knowing anything, for killing the Minotaur, for being a child of the big three.

And you have to realize that outside of the big three thing, they were ALL in his shoes before. So it’s almost nonsensical for them to give him a hard time. Unless it’s a type of hazing.

This behavior is never brought up again but it’s actually one of the reasons Percy likes Luke so much in the first book. Outside of Chiron and Grover, Luke was the only one being nice to him.

Because he was being HAZED.

And it would’ve been a one time thing but I think each Cabin has there own niche of hazing because you then get Piper and get a look into the Aphrodite cabin.

Firstly, you have to break someone’s heart in order to be accepted, weird. You have to do everything Drew says or else your on cleaning duty or want to wake up in the middle of the lake or smth. And your start at the bottom of the pack before working your way up by becoming one of Drew’s minions. It’s like every stereotypical sorority film.

There’s also the fact that it’s mandatory that you get robbed when you first stay in the Hermes cabin, need to get glory in order to STOP being bullied, and kiss a boar when you first get to camp (deleted chapter)

Like throughout the series, I think the only people we don’t see go through this are the Zeus kids (privilege), Annabeth (seasoned camper) and Leo (nice siblings).

And like Nico kept leaving because he thought no one liked him because he was a Hades kid. So imagine if, no, it wasn’t being he was a Hades kid, he was just getting the mandatory hazing. Like he thought everyone hated him but they were just fucking with him the whole time.

But yeah, CHB definitely hazes people.

fowl play

(early story Stella is she/her, but a Stella with this design (open jacket, strawberry earring) is usually they/them, sometimes he/him. Always Stella though. They're about 13 years old when they start figuring themself out)

Okay, I caved and downloaded Romance Club😭😭 Does anyone have any good story recommendations? I'm still gonna be on Choices and post Choices content (and finish off the books on my reading list). I just feel like I need to stop relying on one storytelling app

Ugh, this is such a weird feeling! It reminds me of when I switched from Episode to Choices and I had to acclimate to the better quality of stories imao. I just wanna ✨expose myself✨ to more interactive apps and since Storyscape or wtvr doesn't exist anymore this is the closest I can get

COMPLETED

Kali: Call of Darkness: 9/10; love the MC, the characters, the story progression, the Dozen lore, replayability, etc. but gets a point off for its problematic depiction of Indian culture and Hinduism) tbh it deserves an extra point or two off because I despise the way Remy clearly wrote from a Eurocentric perspective, but this is also the first RC book I read after the slew of mid Choices books so I got attached unfortunately

Theodora: 9.6/10; I got the ending where I was only able to save my soul and it made me sad 😭 the story was well written but there were parts where I was just a lil bored. At least, that’s how I felt initially before I became obsessed with the book. It's objectively amazing etc. but I feel kinda robbed from screentime with the OG characters if that makes sense? Either way the writer did a great job writing them into the plot in later seasons and the MC is so amazing I love her <3 it’s not easy to write the progression of multiple relationships already but to have a different set of likable LIs every season is incredible!

Arcanum: 9.8/10; THIS BOOK WAS SO GOOD omg I love how the plot came full circle and the MC was interesting and well-written (her character design was also top tier). It's such a unique concept for a book I love it. I feel like S3 could have gone by a lil quicker (along with a couple of other nitpicky things) but that could just be because S2 was so full of action

Heaven's Secret: 9.9/10; I just started its sequel, but I was pleasantly surprised at how engaging this book was! I like the gradual progression from being a new student to slowly learning the truth behind your death and about the academy. The final battle scene was super cool, and I feel like everything had a logical explanation (ex. Shepha only having power over light). I also like the different pathways of being an Angel, Demon, or Harmony Bearer (which I was!) it was really fun and seems like a replayable book <3

I’m really starting to question how RC’s algorithm determines romance points with Love Interests. I've noticed some strange inconsistencies, especially in the latest story, "And the Haze Will Take Us." In this story, the known LIs so far are Dragan, Ozar, and Tata.

For the record, I've been disappointed with the female LIs lately due to their lack of usefulness, so my main character is only pursuing male interests in this story. However, when I checked my profile's top matches, here's what I found: Ozar and Dragan are both at 100% right away, which might be normal, but I'm not sure yet. Not only that but Tata is completely missing from the list, even though friendship points should still show up, (like with Eve in "Chasing You 2", for example).

To make things more confusing, a random guy named "Volot" showed up with a 100% match too, even though my MC has never met him. Like, who are you, mate !? So, I thought for a moment and figured, 'maybe he was one of the priests with the skeletal cow mask'; but then, when did I romance him? Was it when I chose the diamond option to help MC breathe after the procession? That just doesn’t make sense.

So, yeah, RC , could you please explain how this wibbly wobbly, timey wimey stuff works again? Cause it really throws me off.

Best quote from an alter, go!

So there's a couple that we absolutely adore, we (main 3 hosts and Heart) all wanna pitch in!

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

Soul: 'Zooweemama, my bank credits have been drained dry'

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

There's a quote made by one of our friends where one of their headmates just said 'You know what cheeses my biscuits?'. One of our headmates, Dove, repeats it as a vocal stim of sorts literally every day. Mind (her boyf) thinks it's both charming and annoying.

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

Russ: 'Timezones are a lie, I'm rowing my boat to the Philippines to snog my boyfriend GM-me Time'

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

Jash: 'Fuck money, I'll be a Barbie doll when I want, where I want.'

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

Redd: *humming but like shortly

Russ: 'Holy shit Minecraft villager core'

Neat concept to consider: a Dark Urge origin character could technically regain their memory if they had Regenerate cast on them.

I say could because if someone wanted to be a stickler for wording, it can be validly ruled that Regeneration doesn't apply to internal/organ damage as it specifically only details regrowth of "severed body members". However, also equally valid ruling to say that it would make sense it would recover significant internal damage.

I think it's pretty sensible to say that Regenerate would restore it, as it has been firmly established in-game that the majority of the memories lost for the Dark Urge are explicitly due to physical trauma to the brain. Since Heal is described as having healed a sliver of the permanent damage which then caused immediate memory recollection, safe to say that complete restoration of the brain would come with total or almost total memory recollection.

Which leads to the most interesting character building point of this which is: how would regaining their memories affect the Dark Urge, especially if the identity they developed post-amnesia is fundamentally different from who they originally were? Would the reclamation of memory be processed as gaining their prior sense of identity in some way, or would it get processed more like witnessing the memories of an entirely separate person from their POV?

I think it's only a given that the answers to these questions heavily relies on whatever path the new Dark Urge has chosen, as well as whether or not the Dark Urge still has Bhaal's blood. Even more intriguing character development musings that the fraction of one's Dark Urge interpretation is influenced by where in the timeline memories are regained. Further expanded upon, another question is if the return of their memory would drive the Dark Urge back to the ambitions of their old self or if it would only serve to fuel atonement more than they were already motivated to.

Does anyone still remember Black haze by Yongyong? I got hooked up by it, but at first, I wasn't convinced to read because the art was not my type and let's say wasn't good as the other manhua we know. But! sooner in the chapters, it will improve and good better!

So anyway, the improved art reminds me of anime like 07 Ghosts, and the plot has the same vibe too. Yeah the shounen vibe, I sometimes forgot it was a Korean manhwa hahaahahha. The humor and drama did blend well together.

The sad part is it's currently on indefinite hiatus and we are left with cliffhangers. I hope the author soon picks it up again. I'm pretty sure the story will involve not only the demon world and the human world but also the world where Dio(Diorook) originally resides. And we might meet the king of that world too. (I hope it is not a new villain)

The plot twist might be that Dio is an essential figure in that world and who knows what drama might involve him this time.
