Thinking abt how much I love oni's writing again... In particular, "a seed is planted" continues to be one of if not my favorite logs because despite the troubling details and implications that come with it, it's the one thing in the entirety of the decaying corpse of gravitas that genuinely leaves us with a grain of hope (a seed if you will) and makes oni as a whole a lot more bitter sweet as while earth may not have survived, the dupes did, and after their horrible origins and the shit that many of them went through, in due time they'll finally get to just live, they're free now, and even if Olivia's sleep is end of a tragedy, the world will keep moving forward with or without those who've been lost
#rat rambles#oni posting#like I guess I just rly love that oni both manages to commit to being a tragedy while also leaving a world still in motion#like Im glad that olivia didnt get a bittersweet ending and instead got a fucking miserable one#while at the same time the dupes are still left there to keep moving forward#well ok more so I like how the narrative shifts into smth quite beautiful when seen from the dupes perspectives#which is also why I like that the dupes are rarely talked abt directly in the lore logs#idk I just feel like a seed is planted wouldnt hit as hard to me if the dupes were talked abt more#its the same sort of incedental storytelling that I like abt the rest of oni's writing ig#also I just think them being a major part of the lore logs would rly take away from the greater horrors and tragedies of gravitas#like idk I think it would have been a lot more boring if a third of the logs were just jackie going so yeah I tortured dupes some more#it makes the pre end of the world world feel so much bigger while still mostly remaining within gravitas itself#enhances the feeling of glimpsing into a past world#like every now and then I think abt what oni story could have looked like and am filled with joy at what it is now#I fucking love being into fiction thats good god it feels so good to like shit thats just like actually good#it honestly makes me almost wish there wouldnt be new lore but I do think theres room for more#as in theres plenty of room to make shit up and also we need to see more of the scientists pls#as for actual quote unquote plot stuff idk just give me like one jackie and olivia college year video transcript or smth and we're good#theres other stuff that make me lose my mind but for narrative consistency I think itd be best to not touch those two too much#especially olivia I rly think she doesnt need almost any new content the only stuff Id want with her is if it expanded upon jackie#because rly jackie is the only character I think would super heavily benefit from elaboration even if I stand by her not needing much#as Ive said a billion times just smth small to show us her in a more casual setting and we're golden I think#show me that woman being genuinely happy so I can fill in the blanks as she slowly gets crushed by the consequences of her actions#shes a part of this tragedy too and god damnit I want to see the life she ruined along the way of ruining many others#I want to see a woman whos eyes once shined and then when the lights have dulled I want her to say it was worth it with no conviction#metaphorically ofc I dont actually want to see most of it because thatd go against the narrative philosophy already established#rly all this means is I wanna see jackie and olivia doing laundry together or smth#oh also I hope they specifically give otto a whole other log just to clear up my pronoun woes#idc what its abt just have them talk abt their gender offhand or smth#just mi-ma being like how do you do young man and otto is like they and mi-ma is like ah yes young they

redoing rose’s team before the last of the gym leaders is def a dessert before dinner sort of thing
Tumblr media
(ability: heavy metal, moves: heavy slam, flying drop, gravity, fissure)
(so there’s only one battle for him, as far as i want to do rn? ill come up with some kind of Post Game plot but idk yet, i reaaaally loved the setting and the music of this battle what if i spent this whole post just gushing about it?)
(this pkmn design Hard Core reminds me of the game i cant remember, i almost want to use the shiny form cause it fits a pkmn setting better? imo, ill end up tweaking it a bit, i Know turner has played that game whose name i cant recall)
(but big GOD when rose is like ill show you a move thatll (something gloating but not too over top) i cant remember the exact line, it was like, the same way youd show someone a cool pic of your dog only you have a god complex it obliterated my brain cells to make way for horny cells and then hits you with that gmax like ughhhhhhh wish tht was me,)
(they didnt really do anything interesting with this pkmn outside  of the gmax and the heavy slam heavy metal, a lot of the attack dexs feel the samey in this gen cause they axed sooo many moves???)
(oh he gigbigs this bad boy up and uses that move, you know whats up)
Tumblr media
(ability: stance change, moves: king’s shield, scared sword, aerial ace, shadow sneak)
(i know ive said this A Bunch but out of any battle this was the one that felt the most like, pain from being stuck in a 20 year old battle simulator, the moves, the banter, the setting, the so so excellent villain song uuugh)
(i like the idea of like even if you missed every clue and were just she/him/thembo on main about the plot youd be like OH THE FINAL FORM OF THOSE SWORD DUDE) 
(i wonder why they never give plot characters shinies even when it makes like, sense? this is literally rose’s sexy sexy palette)
Tumblr media
(type: grass/fighting)
(ability: queenly majesty, moves: trop kick, high jump kick, mega kick, endeavor)
(they gave him like random uggos that were just steel like you think a man that Fine is using a ferrothorn??????????????????????? give him shiny ferrothorn at least, its also his palette a bit)
(also sorta wild this thing didnt get turned into grass/fighting? i might turn it into one in the emulator)
Tumblr media
(ability: huge power, moves: iron head, vise grip, crunch, poison fang)
(i wasnt sure about this one? but its like elegant, plant looking The Deceiver and steel type so at the same time it seems really obvious? so idk why im like hmm about it)
Tumblr media
(ability: light weight, moves: steel beam, flash canon, breaking swipe, metal burst)
(i CANNOT BELIEVE!! they gave one of the gym leaders this and not had this be rose’s like big signature hitter like kidoking or sm shit lik!!!!e!!!!!! man of steel! literal tower! rose tower! sky scrappers!! the FUTURE ughhhhh!!!)
(looking at its g max move it feels like it really was designed for rose, omg what happened?)
(anyway he Also dyamax’s this thing, cause every, like miss o, this blows the remainder of the power so the power plant is on back up generators for the rest of the time? or something? probably something dangerous like a core reactor thing? ill have to look up power plant stuff, wow,,,doing this for you,,,rose)
Tumblr media
(type: grass/steel)
(ability: technician, moves: bullet seed, bullet punch, seed bomb, magnet bomb)
(another i cant believe he didnt have it, also,,,,a  type update, like his extra fancy hotel has roselia in designs all over the place! budew sitting on counters! and he wouldnt be rocking one? shame shame SHAME on whoever picked his team out!!)
(ill probs keep the purple rose red tho)
(this team is so flammable but i think cause rose isnt a competitive battler par say that its less like, immersion breaking,  also people probs just lose to him like on purpose all the time, i think he can tell but he never points it out, making battle where you go all out on him something that really moves him)
(making the air be like high altitude so fire attacks do 30% less damage and might just not work, treated more like a miss than say attract so stuff that never misses will land)
-----
battle 2
Tumblr media
(dragon/????)
(ability: darkest night: as long as eternatus remains in eteramax form, no pokemon on the field can alter their form through dymax, mega stones or abilities, as long as eternatus enteramax is on the field sunny day and moves that induce harsh sunlight will not take effect; the air becomes noxious air and increases poison damage every turn eternatus remains on the field)
(WILD that they didnt gameifiy how this pkmn behaves and just threw pressure on it sdfgh???)
(also sorry for writing that like a yugioh card, idk how any emulator will deal with that and i might have to rpg the results go with whatever is most narratively interesting, or just set stuff manually and increase as i go? idk!)
(it major feels that somewhere Way early on in the development they stopped designing it as a game and started to do like, a pkmn movie you can slightly interact with, like because nothing is recreateable unlike say darkrai who does have bad dreams ability, this was majorly thinking about how it look in a 3d setting and less how it would function as a monster in a game settin which!!!!
its bonkers cause we LITERALLY just had ultra beasts!!!!!)
(like this is such a step back in game design But i totally get and love what they were trying to do, so going with that, lets give this thot some moves)
(moves: acid rain-??? effect: causes multiple weather effects at once [ link ]
super glitch-???  Defying natural law, this attack increases the users hp beyond all limitations, as punishment this user is frozen, burn and poisoned [ link ]
symbiosis eject button-??? forces the target’s held item to take effect twice, if no item is held the first or second time or if the effect cannot take effect, the target faints if hit [ link ]
zzazz-??? the user explodes damaging everything around it including themselves, if the user faints while using this move, its hp is replenished [ link ] )

Ep. 10 - "Heck Everyone on This Tribe!" - Logan
LOGAN
tea time with ryan. when is it my turn
-
So last round was wild. If it weren't for duncan, i would have voted david and that would have been even messier. Also sorry Ali I definitely did go in room 9 but it doesn't matter! Because my extra vote was snatcht by Isaac.
RYAN PALMER
LMFAO LAST NIGHT WAS A MESS. it was still totally fun though. i havent had that much fun in a game for a long time. too bad everyone else is being boring af. i dont have anything personal against trevor but i think this series and season is too good to have someone breeze their way to the end because everyone just wants to follow him and hand him the win. i dont get it. oh well. like i said im always just here to have fun and cause a little chaos. it seemed like sam and ali had the most negative reactions to what i said in the tribe chat last night. i literally made it all up...minus the duncan part cause lydia told me about it....anything i can do to spice things up and get ppl paranoid is good. im not gonna survive this round so i gotta make it last. but when i wrote and said that i was a free agent and that if you want my vote you better message me or else someone else will...i got messages from jd logan sam which is interesting. i think sam knows that hes the person i talk to the least so he wants some communication in before im juror...eh...and logan and jd seemed to really want me to know they werent against me...i do actually believe them but that doesnt mean they are gonna go trying to save my ass. honestly just give me that spot in emathia hvv. if i can somehow win this immunity by a stroke of genius itll be my mission to make sure someone good leaves and we dont waste a round by getting david/logan/jd out. oh also i love lydia. and cami.
LOGAN
Also! Heck everyone on this tribe! Literally everyone lied to me last night except for Duncan, Matt and Ryan, and ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE IS NOW GONE BY MY HAND. I didn't want to vote for Matt! If I could have gotten rid of Trevor YER DARN TOOTIN I WOULD HAVE! I just didn't read the rules bc I'm a #idiot. If it weren't for Duncan actually trusting me, I would have voted for David or Trevor and looked stupid as heck. I also told Trevor that the "other side" trusts me which is... well, true, because I am the other side. I'm literally about to play his own game and fucking leak false information to him. Maybe flush an idol, maybe flip someone. I will never trust anyone in this game again. Within the next four rounds I'm going unless I can win challenges. It was a good run.

DAVID
Me on the bottom? just where i like it! anyway Ali was like "It was rough yesterday ryan was yelling at me ):" and im like bitch I literally didnt vote in the majority and you did can you actually shut your mouth because you have nothing to worry about
ALI
Welp, I have lots to talk about, so I am gonna break it up into sections:
Firstly, I am super happy to have made final 10. Like already outlasting 12 people in a season is a huge achievement! Yesterday's vote got a bit crazy, but I think its opened my eyes as to the next steps I need to take to advance my game. Firstly, in memoriam of Matt. I wouldn't have expected to vote him out so soon, but he'd begun trying to turn the tides against a member of my alliance, and he didn't have a majority, so I almost had to go on the 'Trevor' side. Furthermore, when he was talking about the potential 'majority' that'd take out Trevor, he didn't include Sam or JD, who I'd expected him too, as we'd been working together up to that point. His willingness to just leave out allies, meant that he just had to go :( Next Sam. I feel super bad for Sam. I was encouraging him to use the idol, when it was unnecessary. Our conversation leading up to him playing it though super brought us together, so I'm hoping I have his vote going forwards. Next, I got to play Touchy Subjects! I was so excited for that, and even though it was super hard to make some tough decisions, I really enjoyed it and can't wait to see the results! :) Now, onto 'Tea Time with Ryan'. In my opinion, Ryan screwed up. Like, people get that Trevor is a threat, but all that his temper tantrum did, is make sure people don't want to work with him (at least in my opinion). Like I definitely intend on making a move against the Trevor/Owen power duo, in the next coming votes, however I don't think I'll necessarily want to include David or Ryan (unless one of them happens to still be in the game). I'd potentially want to make that move, with a group of 'Duncan,Me,Sam,JD and Lydia'- I'd super want to bring in Logan as a 5th, but JD is weirdly stubborn about not wanting to work with them. I'm not sure why. Looking super long term, there are a number of threats, that I need to remove before F3. Those people include but aren't limited to: Owen, Trevor, Lydia and Ryan Like I don't want to go to F3 with any of them. My dream F3 would be with David and JD, as I feel like those two are the two I have the greatest chance of beating. I wouldn't necessarily have a problem sitting there with Logan or Duncan either. Even Sam is kinda too big of a threat. As promised to Jay, here is a quick breakdown of my thoughts on each tribemate: Ryan: I may be the lap dog, but you’ll be the one heading to the pound JD: My F2, think I may potentially be able to beat them. Really get on with them. I think them being stubborn about not working with Logan may cost us a bit. I don’t get why they so passionately want them out eek Logan: Super sweet person, sucks that we haven’t up to this point been able to work together game-wise Trevor: Really like him, but he is just too big of a threat Owen: Same as Trevor, would almost want to keep him longer though. We’ll see Duncan: I don’t know what to think of him? Like I feel like we’re close, but at the same time, maybe we aren’t David: We barely talk. Like almost never. Lydia: Kinda scary strategy wise, but a great mentor Sam: Love him too, but he is kinda a threat Who is the tenth person? I can’t remember for the life of me. In conclusion, everyone is a threat and they all need to go.

I've not talked to any of y'all! You formed a majority without me on our original tribe! And when matt came to me I wasn't having it tbh.On 3/19/17, at 7:28 PM, Matthew Summers wrote: > So like idk if you have any sort of vendetta against me but that was what the last message he sent me started with. Like, I DO have a vendetta against you, you said "its hard for you to trust me", verbatim, and YOU VOTED OUT MY SHOWMANCE BINCH! KARMA IS A BITCH NAMED HARMONIA!! Please also know, I was at work when shit was hitting the fan.  I'm so glad that everything went according to plan despite the plan being leaked. It made sense for Samuel to idol trevor, it built their trust, and it prevented any scare of a tie. Now I just need to find out who has the idol now. The more the idol transfers hands, the messier allegiances are going to be. RTP did call out owen and Trevor on having multiple final threes with people and it did make me think about my long term game. Its going to be really hard for me to take on owen or Trevor in the end. My best bets hones lee? My best bets would have to be with either Logan or one of the newbies or samuel. Like Samuel would get the newbies vote but I might be able to pull off the rest? idk. I know for short term, as long as I'm good with Samuel, I'm good with the newbies, bc he knows everything about them. So I know If I want to go deep I need to *shudders* continue to stick with sam. I know that its dangerous to go deep with sam because he is always a contender for the W, but I need to make sure I get to the end before I start thinking about votes or anything like that. So if that means taking another inch of sam down my throat than so be it.

SAM
Hey why is nobody talking?????? this is supposed to be a chaotic vote???? is it me???? i guess these lame-os don't know that i have another idol????
DAVID
Ryan: Sam just thinks youre a vote with me Me: I mean is he wrong. IS HE WRONG!!!!!!
TREVOR
https://youtu.be/B7Ad9-RNKzg
DUNCAN
Okay a few things. Owen told me about Trevor giving sam his idol and obvi We can tell sam gave Trevor the idol bc of trev's disad in the challenge. Ummm I told Ali about the cursed idol and hopefully that gives me some foundation with him for the future moving forward. The vote apparently is for David. That's what I've been told. I'm hoping that if things go off the rails I'm not the one getting hit by the train. I don't think I'm the biggest threat? But you can never know what's going through a persons head. I'm planting seeds for samuel's blindside rn. I'm sharpening my sword. Hopefully I'm still here to slay the beast
LOGAN
im bein played
OWEN
whew!!! what a time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 Matt Summers ultimately left and I think, in doing so, the game was mostly put in perspective: Ryan/David voted with him, Logan/Duncan are now officially together, the Sam/Ali/JD thing still exists as does Trevor/myself/Lydia. However, I...need Sam out of this game. And Ali, for that matter. So I went to Duncan and we talked without Trevor this time about potentially making a move soon. It's probably not a good idea this round, but potentially next round Duncan/Logan/me/Trevor/Lydia could make something happen? So I was SHOOK when JD started gunning for Logan this round??? Like...way to make it obvious you're trying to keep Ryan in the game, who is literally playing you just like Sam and Trevor and all of the returnees are. Whew! So I didn't want Logan gone at all cause that fucks everything up for future plans, so I tried to push it back on Ryan. Sam, Ali, JD, and Lydia continued to be completely like....unresponsive about the vote until finally Lydia spoke up about doing David and I'm like...as long as it isn't Logan, that's fine by me! :) God JD was like telling Trevor how he was the leader and how nobody would listen to her if she tried to get Logan out and I'm like....girl lol Survivor 101 - Don't TELL someone they're the leader. They don't want the target on their back!!!!!!!!!! Huh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So :) We'll see! Maybe it'll be David going, maybe someone else will get fucked up and I'll have nothing to do with it, but honestly at this point there are a lot of people who, if they leave, it benefits me in some way. Ryan and David can go, Sam Ali and JD can go, and Trevor, though I don't want him gone right now, would ultimately take a target off of my back if he left. As long as it isn't Duncan or Logan then I'm good. AND IT CAN'T BE ME :) Whew! Just a day in the life!
ALI
Provided David goes home tonight (which it seems he will pretty unanimously), I think my game is super on the up. Its been clarified that Trevor is a huge threat, and watching conversations develop, its clear he has Sam with him, and Owen is of course linked to him, who is tied to Duncan. Those 4 are dangerous, as they seem inflexible and will likely stick together. It'll really blow to betray Sam, but it's seemingly necessary :( Lydia is a godsend. She is down to make a move on that four, alongside Ryan, JD, Logan and myself. I've finally rebuilt a relationship with Logan, which is great, (I think they're iconic and would love to bring them in as apart of a majority). I also think someone is lying about room 9 and Logan genuinely didn't go. I can hopefully now work with that 4 to do some major to the 'other side'. Woomph, I'm super excited! :) I am slightly scared of the damage being voted 'hero' and someone 'people would like to see win' will cause, but hopefully, also being voted a goat will nullify that! I MAY'VE MADE FINAL 9 AND I'M VERY EXCITED! :) (famous last words). I could've just been a prophet or I just flopped it. That kinda rhymed, but not really. I  guess we'll never know if I make it or not (or at least until the vote reveal in like 15mins). -Ali Out! (but hopefully not of the game)
OWEN
in other news this round has been fishy and I feel like something fishy is about to happen
JD
So Isaac leaving, that was very sad actually. I don't think that there was many people up at the time but we talked and I can feel for him. Not to the extent, but its sad. 
-
Scott getting striked out was not a surprise. He has not been very active from the beginning anyway 
-
Matt's vote, that was crazy. That was, tight. The night before tribal Matt went to Ali and told him that he was thinking about voting out Trevor. Being that me, Ail, Trevor and Lydia were in a final four, me and Ali agreed that this wasn't going to happen so we agreed that we would keep an eye on Matt and try to calm him down so that he would stop targeting Trevor. The only way we were going to tell Trevor was if Matt was really going to push it and as it turns out he really wanted to push it. So it was time to do what we did with Sam, save that ass.
