Would that mean Ajax has an unusually vested interest in the other nations after everything in Liyue is sorted? Like- keeping an eye on the Gunnhilder clan, or the Ragvindr’s? Would he have a vested interest in seeing the Dawn Winery form and thrive? Would he keep an eye out for news from Inazuma about the Kamisatos, Kaedehara clan, and how the Yokai are doing? There’s a lot of funky things Ajax could be tracking and or meddling with and I love that for him

oh absolutely. ajax would find a way to build himself a little news chain just to keep up on Blorbo Release Dates and accidentally install the greatest intelligence gathering network in teyvat

and like- nobody would realize at first since it'd happen so slowly, but by one point some couple of centuries down the line guizhong would be like- sorry, how do you know this? and ajax would just cassually drop that ah yes [instert someone's name here] told him and guizhong and morax would sit there like. who- who's that and ajax would drop the whole oh y'know i made some friends, i got some people to pass me some info back, usual stuff and guizhong would stare bc ajax is just casually revealing he has created a both open-secret yet completely unknown network of entirely random individuals who just- pass gossip along, and it all eventually goes back to ajax. most of that network is made up of volchiy travelers who pick up info on the coasts and directly report back to him.

I’ve said it like. Three times a week since I started playing it. But FFXIV is really just the goat.

the thing is, i can't afford an adult assessment/diagnosis and there's no guarantee i would meet the requirements. but also...what accommodation could i feasibly get? i'm good at course design, at curating assignments, at one-on-one interactions with students. i'm a good writer and a good presenter. but i need at least one hour of recovery for every hour of interaction with people i don't know. i need to be allowed to not make eye contact or smile All The Time. i have a maximum of time i can be "engaged" in planned interactions and after that i need either a buffer (another person, stimulant, non-conversational activity) or the grace to not be socially performative. i need people to be honest with me. i need people to understand how *i* work and work with me, not against me. i need clearly articulated expectations. i need things in writing, because my hearing/memory sometimes glitch. on paper i'm an excellent option for a department, but in person i'm "weird" or "not engaged" or "not a good fit." there is no accommodation that doesn't involve academics questioning their racist, cissexist, classist, ableist biases, and remodeling their whole approach to the job market. which they're not gonna do! so i just have to hope that i can garner enough other things in my favor (an article published, an intervention that seems useful, glowing student evals) so that a department will overlook my "quirkiness" and give me some kind of chance.

The Megaman Battle Network experience is thinking you are going through the main plot of the story, beating up a bunch of really tough enemies and gathering some good chips…

Only to realize you are not in fact following the main story and have instead just went through a bunch of optional areas and your chips are kind of op for where you’re at.
