the strength it must have taken for illario to not immediately go full 'lmao since when have you even had a kiss hello lucanis' sibling violence mode during the café talk. inspirational. rook and lucanis really were doing all that right in front of his salad huh
#lucanis is being SO cringe with that line right out there in public and I would die for him. it's just such a weird thing to say#tbf if anyone in the world is used to the insane things lucanis says and would go 'yes yes lucanis waxing poetic about coffee#in ways normal people reserve for trying to get in someone's pants (the roast won't fuck you lucanis)#we've all heard it' like it's all normal I suppose it would be illario. and also he's too busy with the 'shit fuck shit he's not dead#he's not dead of the family members 'supposed' to be dead we're at two definite failures out of two and woe me if the twain should meet#if that IS a demon in there it sure talks exactly in the same bizarre way only my cousin does#does that mean anything what the fuck do I do who do I kill about this' internal monologue I guess#dragon age#dragon age: the veilguard#dragon age: the veilguard spoilers#dragon age spoilers#illario dellamorte#lucanis dellamorte#rook x lucanis#rookanis#I mean he does very much say that to a non-romancing rook too which only makes it all the more delightfully odd#is it a very lucaniscore way of testing the waters. is it just how he always talks about coffee. many plausible approaches here#no one forced him to bring up kisses and 'you should try it' out of the blue like that is all I'm saying. he could have acted normal#(theoretically)#i feel there are reasons to read some stuff into it lol#lucanis when rye says he prefers tea: it's so over cautious overture I don't quite understand myself yet gently rebuffed#lucanis when rye takes him up on the 'so what should a first kiss be' theme: oh we're so back!!!! wait. what. what do I do now#what is this#it's kind of really sweet that rook answers with their own playfully florid beverage based barely hidden metaphor at the end too#matching freaks and having fun with it#as far as lucanis is concerned rye's only true flaws are 1) prefers tea to coffee (oh well. no one can be perfect. cross-cultural love#can conquer all even in this) and 2) weird taste in interior design (did we really HAVE to bring your 15 foot tall corpse statues#with us home rook. I can understand a tasteful skull here and there but this seems excessive. well if it makes you happy I guess)

theres also a cool time/clocks motif going on w raffles which i am predictably haunted by but we cant get into that today
#tbf this one is less character specific and a lot more baked into just like. the prose style#soooo much specific time cues yk#and ofc the clocktower in just and the gun clock in last laugh#but specific to aj theres a lot of like. side details. that put him constantly at the End of things#and idk how much of that would have been intentional#but like hes already 10 yrs into an athletic career when we meet him#he lives in the albany at a time when its future was SUPER uncertain like they talked abt selling it several times in the 1890s#it barely survived the century and its reputation was probably the worst it had ever been#He Himself barely survives the century... and only gets a few months into 1900. he does Not outlive victoria#hes an aesthete but very much at the end of that movement (esp after 95) and his specific favourite niche is WELL before their time#etc etc theres more of this its always rotating up here but as i say. brain dead today#a#crime and cricket#edit ohhhh my gosh i forgot abt the slow bowling#i was trying to remember ik there was a cricket thing abt the 90s for him#im wayyyy less well read on the sports stuff buT#the 90s was like. the transition era to primarily fast bowlers#so even if he hAD like never got caught on the uhlan etc#his career would have looked very different before too long

It's been a full year since the Mighty Nein show announcement and I am honestly still laughing that we all inexplicably identified that the lines were re-recorded for the announcement in particular in .02 seconds flat. This is still my takeaway a year later.
#can y'all believe it's been a whole goddamn year. what the fuck.#it's so funny tho cuz I went and listened to it again and STILL was like 'oh that's re-recorded'#even though there's BARELY a discernible difference. like frankly not even a describable one in most cases#it is somewhat clear with essek cuz the actual line does not end on 'ocean of the unknown' but also like#there's a notable gap in the original that's like... no it cOULD'VE been the same line but it's nOT#tbf when you compare them it's also sound quality. like c2 sound quality is VERY MUCH FINE but it's not 'recorded in a booth' good#but also if you're not directly comparing the lines (which like. we were not doing right off the bat) it is... definitely minute inflection#anyway I'm laughing#m9 animated#critical role

bad news for everyone except me I got a little spark of a kanyouko idea last night
#tbf this is also bad news for me too as i have no idea where it's going#she's just so fascinating#when the female character got unmet desires 🙌#fic tag#naturally this is sponsored by me thinking about the story where they first meet#and realizing how easy it'd be to add a feeder!youko lens to it#ah well. poor thing is cursed to be broke and barely ever able to eat well herself let alone fatten up her master#but maybe they can have weird not-fully-satisfying sex about it!!#freak shit on main#<- almost got away with it but i got weird in the tags as one does

I'm obsessed with this doordash review. The only other place to get food where this is is an ice cream shop.
#my post#tbf the ice cream shop does offer pizza#but this place is in a tiny little village#one of those places you drive through in two minutes and barely register

y'know my friend pointed it out once and it is kinda weird to me: why is mitsuo's boss theme (revelations: mitsuo/shin mitsuo tensei) in golden based on i'll face myself -battle- and not a new world fool (or a more generic boss theme like reach out to the truth)?? only party members' shadows and marie/kusumi-no-okami use that theme- i guess you could argue it's just the theme for shadows as a whole since mitsuo's the only non-party member whose shadow you fight (ignoring adachi technically being his shadow also-) but. weird choice i feel like-
#rambearling#persona 4#p4#i assume i'll face myself -battle- plays during his fight in og p4 but i don't know for sure-#he doesn't even face himself really he literally doesn't accept his shadow as himself-#his shadow doesn't even say it's the true self at the start of the fight it just says it's a shadow sklfdjfdlksfdjdfskj-#<- i saw someone say that's only the case in the english version but idk for sure and i still think it's an interesting choice#mitsuo has such wasted potential man................ he is just a mentally unwell teenager he needs therapy not jail time#what even happens to mitsuo like does he get arrested??? does he get released from police custody???#he just vanishes from the narrative after his dungeon-#i mean tbf he's barely in the narrative to begin with kldfsjfdkjdsfljkfsdkj-#in the game itself the most memorable thing about mitsuo is that his boss fight's hard klfdsjfdskljfsdfkjlfdjkl-#thank god for black frost with agidyne and mind charge. my ace for the whole game after that ily black frost <3#he has bufudyne and maragidyne and a dark skill i don't remember and mind charge <3#and a buff i also forget cuz i barely use buffs honestly <3

i’ve mentioned before that claire only ever drinks in public/socially if ethan is by her side. and that’s because when she lived in san francisco/during her first undergrad she used to party a lot and um well you see claire has many sensory issues + socialising is difficult to her even if she tries really hard (and she does; she mainly has a hard time… understanding stuff and connecting to people). so drinking was her way of getting more comfortable/not feeling like she was out of place because she found out it lowered her inhibitions/she was uh. numb. very intoxicated.
this became a problem because she would only go out or have fun if she was drinking. and this became an even bigger problem when she was put in situations she shouldn’t have been put. like i said a lot of bad things have happened to claire. so after an incident she stopped drinking & going out altogether and she struggled a lot with, like, Not Drinking. because things with claire are either all or nothing. this was around the end of her first undergrad so maybe 2011/2012. also she had broken up with sabrina and moved out of their shared dorm a few months prior so she's pretty much alone around this time, which doesn't make things easier.
so currently (2014/2015) she goes to parties/clubs/whatever if she’s with addison but she does not drink out of fear. and it’s only when she’s with ethan and they’re networking that she entertains the idea of drinking. but even then it makes her very uncomfortable and anxious so she avoids it if she can.
#oc: claire swanson#i wouldn’t call claire an alcoholic but i also would not not call her that#she had a complicated relationship with alcohol. as she does with everything. her parents fault#i don’t think ethan Knows why claire doesn’t drink in public but i think he has noticed she doesn’t + that she only like. carries a glass#with her when she’s by his side. because that’s what she does she’s just holding the glass lmao she’s barely drinking#this also feeds into that fear she has of seeing lisa repeating her mistakes/not having moderation now that she’s Free.#since claire was Free once too. and many things happened#i think addison is the only one who knows what happened to claire and claire only tells her because. well. :)#and then hunt later on. they have sex once and she just bursts out crying. as you do. unrelated to their first time when she cries too#man see this is all her parents fault. if they hadn't hid her diagnosis from her then she wouldn't be doing all that#also. i like how isolation plays a big part in claire's life. where's that one paper i read about female gothic protagonists and isolation#late 2011/early 2012 is also when the baby thing happens. these events are not necessarily correlated but they also are not not correlated#tbf this is just a really bad patch in life for her. but anyway. vulnerable girl -> gets isolated -> gets preyed on. tried and true cycle

Fucked up and deranged btw how JGY is like three months older than NHS. Think about it for long enough and you start dying
#Tbf I think this is liable to be at least partially a didn't think the timeline thru thing because NHS also is the same age as everyone else#in summer camp (e.g. JZX) (same age as JGY to the day) and he very notably basically repeated a grade. Twice (which. Same)#And I have squared this circle in my head but it does still feel wrong#(And also frankly since LXC is a bare and horrifying two years older than summer camp gang the window of ''older than summer camp gang#(including NHS bc NHS very notably calls him san-*ge*) but younger than LXC'' is DRASTICALLY SMALL anyway)#Shakes you violently LXC WAS 18-19 WHEN SUNSHOT STARTED. HE LITERALLY SHOULD HAVE BEEN AT THE CLUB

#everybody else does like 1 or 2#i have 5. 6 if you count the disabled students network#deeply embarrassing that i do that many societies and still have barely any friends#this is what happens when your housebound as a teenager#seriously it's like there's a set of rules that everyone has except me#i can't even really blame it on the cfs i was like this before tbf#I'm starting to question whether i might actually be autistic. i have other symptoms too this isn't some weird ableism#i still don't think i am there's a lot of big things i don't do i just it would also explain somethings idk

can u imagine if the thirteenth doctor was ever allowed to meaningfully express vulnerability with her companions in her entire run. can u imagine if that had happened
#TBF it’s been a minute since i’ve watched it but even if i’m forgetting something the fact that it is forgettable proves my point#she gets it a little with the master. which i ate tf up#but like. literally why does she Never get it with the people she chooses to be with#on one level that is a deeply fascinating arc for a doctor and i would be interested in seeing explore#but they didn’t really. explore it. it stayed very stagnant through most of her seasons#there were some other character developments (mostly on the companions side in reaction to her) but she is like. barely affected by them#which is WILD for the sort of story doctor who is. god jodie ily they did you so dirty#ted talks#doctor who#thirteenth doctor

(( What if I just... gave Bellanda more merfolk-typical expressions. What if she didn't smile, and tended to view other people smiling at her as an aggressive/threatening gesture.
#Most secret royal advisor || OOC#(( was talking about this last night and. is real tempting....#(( tbf she Does know that smiling is a landfolk Thing that they do (and that miri's picked up the habit)#(( but also like. subconsciously. and also hard to throw that old reaction.#(( she also knows miri well enough to not necessarily rely on body language in this specific way#(( she knows if miri's baring her teeth because she's land-imprinted or if shes actually being threatening#(( bellanda's not really the person who deals with landfolk politically all that much so she's definitely not as familiar with them as miri#(( or the other sisters tbh

my aunt is leaving for arizona on thursday and people have been warning her about being detained but she's not worried because she's "not doing anything wrong" like.... girl you are missing the point. people aren't warning you because you're up to no good. they're warning you because people just like you have been detained for no reason at all.
#current events#she is a white woman so yknow. chances are low but not zero#i definitely do not feel safe travelling and would absolutely be taken to secondary at the bare minimum#because my passport has an X gender marker on it#i made that choice at. the wrong time. ._.#she says a lot of things that concern me tbf. it's almost complete disregard because she still thinks its safe in the US#i've just been keeping quiet although i can't help but go 🤨 when she says things like men naturally have more arm muscle than 'females'#(she literally prefers to use 'females' over 'women')#feels very radfem-y the way she says it too#but she does respect my pronouns so???? i just don't think it's clicked that i am Not A Woman lmao#she also told me on sunday that sugar substitutes get used the same way as sugar in your body but contains zero calories#me: that doesn't seem right. how can it be converted into glycogen and stored for glycolysis but still not have any calories?#(i didn't say that but i did bring up glucose. i thought the whole point of sugar substitutes was to replace sugar but what do i know?)#(not like i'm literally studying this shit in college. we spent half a semester on just glycolysis in biochem lmao)#ANYWAYS

interacting with the store manager at my job would be so funny if he couldn't like fire me or whatever
literally everyone i talk to except the assistant manager thinks he doesn't know what he's doing lmao
#tbf as near as i can tell he doesn't know what he's doing lol#we need some to introduce him to the idea that assigning fewer people to a task means it will get done slower#as well as someone to show him that most people come to the store on weekends#so we should have more people working on weekends#anyway this was brought on by him seeing me having too much stuff to do#and concluding that the answer was to tell me to get it done faster#anyway anyway literally the only reason this department functions as well as it does(which is to say barely)#is that he only rarely bothers to check in on it#my actual department manager is fairly chill at least#i appreciate that he will physically help out in his departments at times and can display a degree of flexibility

#ooc. mun#( both defending each other lbr )#( but my brain is picturing lark with a knife. )#( and sparrow using his druidic powers )#( tbf i don't even think lark has druidic powers. and if he does. he barely uses them dkfdfd )
