#just... random musings of mine

[love-is-a-pearl]

speaking of outfits, I just realized how similar the hoenn contest dress and the lurantis outfit are

Could both perhaps have been designed by the same person?

Honestly on one hand I would have loved to be in the fandom when bucktommy kissed to experience first hand the surprise/excitement of the moment.

On the other, I'm glad my first approach was recent and through extreme buddies nonsense, because whenever I read about past drama (coming from buddies or not tbh) the nonsense that got people up in arms istg. I would have spent my time irritated af. BoBs at least prepped me on the worst nonsense I have ever laid eyes on so now I consider a given that there are just people in the world that look for the worst/most nonsense interpretation of everything like it's their hobby.

One day maybe I will write an essay on why “do criticism better” is not the same thing as “toxic positivity” but today is not that day

I am finishing reading the witch (only one veeeery long chapter left!) but like this to receive some memes in your askbox!

I am sooo excited for yingdu arc specifically because there were two things in season 1 that I really wanted to know when I first watched it in 2021: what the fuck was up with this image of lu guang in the basketball memory with his face all fucked up, and what happened in their overseas trip three years ago that qiao ling mentioned? the show never told us what either of those were about. never elaborated on them.

and now, finally, the S2 finale and yingdu arc op is circling back to this. lu guang dived back in time to the basketball scene. lu guang and cheng xiaoshi were in london and some shit went down, possibly resulting in cheng xiaoshi's (multiple) deaths?

I waited three years for this information to come to light, and we're finally getting it on friday 😭😭😭

got to play some baldur's gate 3 at my friend's house, really enjoyed it and would love to continue it in the future (no immediate plans because even typing out its name would set my laptop in flames), but it made me wonder about "playersexual" companions becoming the default in this kind of game, and how i find this to be... a bit of a bummer? like i think it's cool to have plenty of gay romances at our disposal and i appreciate that some of these characters are explicitly bisexual regardless of the player's choices, but part of me does feel like some awkwardness reins when everyone in your party is dtf at the drop of a hat. the group dynamic feels awkward (because they're all sort of competing for the player) and i think you miss out opportunities to tell stories about specific experiences related to how sexuality affects how we navigate the world (and i don't mean exclusively gay/lesbian characters here--bisexual characters are bound to have a different experience in a world where everyone isn't bissexual by default, and sometimes these experiences are relevant to tell stories about too). mostly it feels sort of... indulgent in a way that makes me connect less with the characters. like mass effect has tons of problems with a lack of same gender romance options but i appreciated having to create different characters to romance different companions. it made me go through the game in new ways that i wouldn't have chosen before. idk i don't think playersexual party is inherently bad or anything, it's just not my preference and i hope it doesn't take over as the default for every RPG with romantic elements

You know... sometimes I feel like I'd be way better at writing Charlie than Velvette (I usually always stick to the sunshines anyway but lmao) but I feel like there's already like a lot of Charlies out there and I do like Velvette as well.

"Someone asked me if I wanted a kiss. I panicked and yelled 'NO!', but they still gave me a kiss anyways."

"It was candy, they wanted to give me sugar. I am never leaving my home again." Not that it would matter since he's already done other things, like run in the street in his boxers and even gotten beaten up by a bear before. He'll leave step out once more in a week.

"oh no, oh no no no no..." she mutters, trying to pull herself out from under the christmas tree only to feel it shift and threaten to topple over. she's stuck, not entirely sure how she's managed it, but there's a string of lights caught on the sparkly dress she's wearing. "hey! i need you in here, i think i'm stuck!" she calls out, cursing herself for not waiting for them to get the tree plugged in like they said they would. she huffs in frustration, trying against to pull herself out only to freeze when she feels the tree shifting once more. it's so embarrassing, she's ass up under the tree, and the short dress is barely covering her bottom half. perfect dress for the christmas party they're hosting soon, not so much for climbing under christmas trees and plugging in lights

Open starter?

She knew she shouldn't. Still, when she'd been rummaging through the overturned trash can and found a fancy collar with its license still attached, Angel had lost herself for a moment. A symbol of the home and family that she so longed for... clearly it wasn't meant to be in the trash, but that was neither here nor there. Before she'd really thought it through, she was slipping the thing on over her head. The weight of the tag, one that she was passingly familiar with but hadn't experience for oh so long, nestled against her breastbone, and for just a moment Angel allowed herself to get carried away in her fantasies.

Heart in her throat for a moment, she turned to the nearest reflective surface, expecting just for a moment for her reflection to take the form of a smart, happy house-dog staring back at her, a mirror into a life she could never have...

Instead, she saw only a filthy, scruffy street puppy playing dress-up.

Immediately disgusted with herself, Angel pulled back from the reflection. She felt stupid, what had she expected, what was she even doing? As much as she might wish and dream, she could never belong in such a life; and if the weight of the collar felt comfortable, well, it wasn't an honour that she deserved to wear anyway.

She sighed heavily.

Then, suddenly, her ears pricked up. She could hear the sound of someone approaching, paw pads on the ground... and it belatedly occurred to Angel just how dead she would be if Buster or anyone from the pack saw her like this. Wrapping her jaws around the collar, she tried to rip it off, but it got caught on her matted fur, she couldn't get it back over her head--

So it was a relief when the approaching figure resolved itself into someone other than who she had been dreading. Still feeling embarrassed and ashamed of herself, Angel nonetheless let the collar drop back into place for a moment.

"Don't ask. Please."
