GOOD NEWS EVERYONE, FINN THE SIM WON HIS DUEL
So I to ensure he won his duel, I had him (almost) max out the athletic and swordfighting skill trees.
I had him go to Antonius' villa first thing in the morning (which is why Antonius is in his PJs) and challenge him.
Things got dicey for a second and I was actually legitimately worried. (I do not want to start this era over lmao)
My boy has won his duel and has officially avenged his family.
The bad news is this was technically murder (even tho Antonius absolutely deserved it) which means he technically broke the law which means he is now about to become a Gladiator. (In challenge rules this means he's joining the athlete career, and every promotion he gets he has to fight someone and if he loses the fight he dies).
The swordfighting mod is not technically lethal, so I had to use cheats to officially kill Antonius and while Antonius very dramatically fell over and died, Finn was just kinda...standing there and I grabbed what I think is a really funny screenshot:
I still have to have Laelius reach the top of the politician career and a few other things, so I do think I'll be in Rome for almost the rest of Finn's life, but I really do hope I can wrap things up and get him home to Henford before his Aunt Rowan dies.

Whumpee that used to be so good at their job/role, but now forgets things, struggles to learn new systems, who feels guilt and the gnawing fear of being left behind because oh god, am I useless now?
Whumpee who blows tiny harmless things out of proportion. Teammate showing them again how to use a tool sighs, or sets something down too hard, or doesn’t speak? They hate me, they hate that I can’t do this right.
Unable to tell anyone because why? How spoiled and selfish would they have to be to complain about being a burden? Who would they tell?
They internalize all of it, and just try harder and harder, but the stress of it just makes it worse.
Until Caretaker catches on.

Jon has a weekly series he does on tiktok where he ranks how good the others are as roommates in a similar style to the "good dog of the week" videos because he's just tired.

Lmao. For someone w/ such crippling perfectionism, Bakugo absolutely hates it when you’re mean about something you made. He’ll fight and fight and fight you over it until you at the very least admit you did your best and it’s okay for him to like it in your place.
And it’s a little hard to believe him. He can’t fake a smile for shit nor lighten his voice much less... express things with any couth. YET it’s honestly very sweet the way he pouts, crosses his arms and refuses to change his stance about something very clearly... wrong. Something he very honestly wouldn’t like if he made it himself.
Snatching the lopsided crocheted hat right out of your hands, putting it on his head, and refusing to give it back. Eating a slice and a half of deflated soufflé then having leftovers the next day. Keeping the shitty (joke) birthday card you made him before you were even dating at the bottom of his bedside table dresser until the moths start to eat it (and even then).

I think my favorite thing about Alhaitham is that his voice lines make it perfectly clear that he knows other people think he’s strange, and he is deliberately cultivating that unsettling vibe so everyone will leave him in peace.
Our boy is really out here doing the social equivalent of firing off gunshots to keep the rent low.
Weaponized weirdness.
