I finally found evidence for the fact that Isuna Hasekura of spice & wolf fame did indeed study medieval economy at a university level, he mentions reading about it for his studies in the afterword of the second coin of the sun book.
Which also led me to a very fun discovery, because in the same afterword he also explains how he got the name for the series from one of these books, and when you go to look up the one in question on amazon, you are greeted by this massive tome on economy in the middle ages with language like "preeminent historian" and "comprehensive examination of political, social, moral, and economic milieus of the late Middle Ages that engendered Europe's transformation from feudalism to capitalism."
But then you scroll down slightly further than that truly massive synopsis and are greeted by the following sight:
Tumblr media
It pleases me much.

on the lighter side of things, here is some footage of sora and riku doing mission mode together i managed to capture (thanks to melonmix and this tutorial)
i used the left stick on a controller to move riku, and the right to move sora
at the beginning of areas theyd start out going in the same direction, but after a while sora would get lost bc of the way the camera works (i think), and id have to reset it with both of looking the same way to get him back on track LOL
in an attempt to avoid friendly fire, i also mapped attack for riku and jump for sora to the same button— meaning when i attacked as riku, sora jumped, and vice versa
it was... somewhat effective?

vent in the tags sorry it’s a big bummer
#i’ve been so excited about my april reading challenge i was staying up to date mostly and everything was awesome#and then last week i spent 10 hours in the ER with my teenage brother. it was truly i think one of the most traumatic days of my whole life#so i slipped and didn’t read anything bc i was too busy with this nightmarish day#the next day i stayed home from work and just took care of him while both my parents were out of town#i got a little back on track w my reading but i knew i would be out of town this weekend#so i went to the bookstore and stocked up on a couple physical copies for the beach#i was truly so excited#and then we had a death in the family#so i canceled my trip and stayed home to grieve w family#and of course truly of course that is the most important thing#and it feels like there’s a hole in my heart and i’m tired and confused and grieving all the time#and i’m also concurrently so sad about fucking up my reading challenge.#grief is weird and i know it’s a trivial thing to be upset about but in between bouts of crying about my grandpa .. i literally just want to#break down and cry about my fucking reading challenge#it’s so dumb even as i type it#but that’s where i am in all honesty.#and i have to go to work tomorrow bc my job sucks. so maybe ill read at my desk in protest.#i just really want to sleep all day for the next week. but i can’t.#bc either my mom needs me or work needs me and both are important bc my mom is my mom and work pays my bills#but i wish i could have one full week to sit in the dark and process everything alone#anyway!!!!!!!!#if you read all this yeesh sorry#pers#tag novel#to delete

hhhhhh I need to properly reread Percy jackson again. This post brought to you by the fact I was about to make a post about a scene I very vividly remember of Will Solace trying to convince Pollux not to keep fighting with his good arm broken before Percy manages to convince him not to bc he promised Dionysus, then thought to myself "huh maybe I should fact check that- I mean I did also convince myself that Travis stoll died in this battle when he actually just went to college." And guess what? That scene ✨️didn't happen.✨️ Pollux was trying to convince Percy to let him rejoin the fight very half heartedly, while propped against a tree, and Percy was just like "hmmmm... no"
#Can you blame me tho.#SO much was going on in that book. It was literally JUST that battle and over the course of like 3 days#Here's some I found while skimming my copy of tlo for the scene in question:#Nico trying to rescue/ speak to his mum ft. Hades being a really shitty person (& shittier father)#Rachel's family helicopter almost crashing#Percy having a conversation with may castellan#Luke very belatedly realising “hm maybe I shouldn't give complete control of my body and mind to kronos”#This one random half-asleep demigod Percy runs into at one point that might’ve been Clovis? The demigod was said to be 12 tho-#So maybe his brother?#Prometheus shows up and gives Percy Pandora's jar#Percy getting thrown in prison by Hades and STRANGLES NICO FOR BRINGING HIM TO THE UNDERWORLD????#nico sends the guards to sleep tho so yay dream powers from his dad#And then Achilles's ghost shows up and basically just goes “are you fucking stupid or something. Why would you want my curse”#Chiron brings the party ponies to fight (they got drunk on rootbeer instead)#I think literally the only things from this book I accurately remembered were#1. Michael Yew convinces Percy to destroy a bridge while he's still on it#2. Annabeth moves to protect Percy's weak spot before she even knew where it was#3. One of Silenus's brothers dies and grover gets to be part of the council#4. Silena regrets being a spy and steals clarisse's armour to fight a drakon#5. Clarisse is PISSED that she did something so stupid and kills the drakon with her father's blessing#6. The fact Percy and Luke actually managed to converse during the Final Battle tm and Luke told Percy his weak spot#7. Ethan is a character who existed and then died. He was the son of Nemesis#Hm actually that's a lot more than I thought#But again there are Things happening in this book and there are Many Of Them and most of them are pretty fucked up actually.#anyway#pjo#Something something how is this a kids book etc

And now that you don't have to be perfect, you can be good.
is god the cat that chases you for fun, someone who pretends benevolence, flicking you away only to sink teeth into your neck while you hold out a begging hand? a cat with a mouse in its mouth. i see, i see, i see. 
in thine eyes i saw god and not as the reflection of myself but something i can touch, something that dies— someone i can kill. someone i could love. these knees have dropped, on cold dirt ground, on wooden floor: century-old, on marble floors that make them ache. in thine hands, i’ve left my life and my heart, my soul that was drug back from hell. hands, eyes, smile, light. your wings i crushed like a cruel boy with a dragonfly at the onset of spring. lavender-scent, the smell of my mother’s perfume and it all reeks of a prayer that never ends. i need you, like the steady weight of a gun in my unsteady hands. like the clean water that washes off this blood off my hands yet never fully cleans it. not enough for absolution or forgiveness. i need you like the cedar brown drink. no, i needed you like it. now, i need you like the smell of fresh air on a sober morning. a thumb caressing my own on a winter evening and everything in between. 
if god was a cat with a mouse that he chooses to kill then i’m a vine, hugging you close in devotion, in ruination. trying to touch everything you and yet never being able to reach all of you. too less, too little to know you truly but never quittin’ the attempts. so, i will pray to you. the only true sign that god exists. his cruelty is proof enough but your unsmiling lips and your smiling eyes are a better proof of the fact that he was capable of beauty and he poured it all into you. the hands that are gentler than the light of the early morning sun, the voice that could make hell tremble and yet softly call my name. my name feels less like a punishment and more like a poem in your mouth. 
i can’t ever be good because i’m always tryin’ to be perfect and my brother’s little head that reached my knee, hugging my leg so close, i have to look up to see his eyes now. little-brother, not so little. if this hand had a weapon—no, this hand is the weapon and that means a weapon raised him and yet, his voice has a softer edge to it and i can’t ever fathom that. i’m always looking down, at the ground, at the barrel of a gun, at the bottom of a drink. searching for things that even a halo can’t illuminate and yet, i have to look up to talk to him. to know his goodness means to believe in my own, to see your holiness is to grasp your hands in mine. i will let myself be good, try to be good because i can’t ever be perfect. knowing that your heavenstring-cut hands will cradle this imperfect hands in your own. 
let me be good for you. stay.

Here's a Valentine's Day Gift for you Lokius Legion 💚🧡
Loki walks out of his and Mobius' apartment wondering if he's still asleep. The halls, the rooms, even looking out the windows he cannot escape the sudden bright reds and pinks decorating every little thing they can. Loki's first instinct is to go to Mobius but he can't seem to find him anywhere! He'd ask someone if they weren't busy making out everywhere. And that's another thing weird about this maybe-dream. THE RANDOM SPIKE OF PDA?! That's supposed to be THEIR thing. Grossing their co-workers and friends alike with their courting, making it into a fun little game after he and Mobius decided to stop running around in circles, just to see who can make their companions cringe more. When he FINALLY finds one of them (B15) she just TEASES HIM. B15: Not so fun now, huh? Loki: So…This ISN'T some fever dream concocted by whatever sugary dessert Mobius had us try last night? B15: Why would you eat dessert at nigh-…Y'know what? I don't want to know. B15: And no Loki, I am HAPPY to say that this is all in fact, real. Loki: Well then, what the HEL is all of this??? B15: It's Valentine's Day and since we all decided we would slowly introduce ourselves to holidays we thought this would be the perfect one to start this year off. Loki: We??? B15: Me, Mobius, a couple of board members. Loki: And where was I when this was happening? 🤨 B15: Did you already forget about the tree thing? Loki: Don't. B15: Well you asked. Loki: I will refrain from doing so in the future. B15: Anyways, Valentine's Day is a holiday where lovers celebrate their…love. Loki: Then why all of…THIS 🤢 B15: Oh cut us some slack this is our holiday in…EVER.
After some more banter in which Loki learned this day for Valentine was as gooey ("Like you and Mobius?" "Shut up.") as it looked and sounded, B15 gave Loki some coordinates to go to So Loki put them in his tempad and went through the familiar orange door…And immediately understood what the fuss was about. There stood his beloved, dressed in a tux, holding a bouquet of Myosotis sylvatica with a soft blush to go with his bright grin hey were on a cliff that stood tall over an entire field full of all kinds of flowers, a round table covered with a cloth with two plush chairs, and a single candle already set up. He smiles at the smell of the tea. The food on the plates however, gives him pause. Loki: Midgardian breakfast? For dinner? Mobius: I gave you extra sausage and bacon 🥰 Loki: I should've known you would've noticed. Mobius: Always, Darlin'
Mobius then gives Loki the bouquet in his hand and then wraps an arm around his waist, guiding him to the left seat 10/17 Loki's favorite (The best in his opinion) human then uses his other hand to pull out the seat and gently urges him to sit. Mobius then excitedly shuffles to the opposite side of the table to his own chair. Mobius: Happy Valentines Day, Loki.
Loki felt his eyes start to water and a lump form in his throat. All of this…for him? He hadn't even planned for this day, hadn't even known of it, and yet Mobius his wonderful partner, had just made it one of his favorites. He had never had so much effort (at least not willingly) put into making him feel this way, this…happy? no, much more than that. An indescribable feeling. A feeling that grew as they spoke about everything and nothing, eating food made by Mobius himself (slightly burnt) And then Loki's heart practically exploded as Mobius, in sync with the sudden glow of the Myosotis sylvatica he could now recognize hidden in the field, kneeled down clumsily (He had seemingly forgotten about the field's specialty and scared himself.) and pulled out a ring Before Mobius could even open his mouth, Loki jumped on him, no longer able to contain his emotions about it all. A long while after, both naked, covered in a blanket he had conjured, Mobius turned to look at him with a shy look. Mobius:…I'm guessing that's a yes? Loki: Of course it's a yes. Anyone who would say no is a buffoon not worth your time. 🙄 Mobius: Oh really? Loki: Yes. In fact not just a buffoon, an imbecile, a fool who shouldn't be allowed to breath the same air as you. Mobius moved his head to lay on Loki's chest and they spent the rest of the night like that, taking turns goading the other to shower the other with compliments, matching smiles following them into their deep slumber.
This came out late but yes, HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY LOKIUS LEGION! I haven't written in years and I haven't wrote a threadfic at all PERIOD. So I hope it's not too bad…(Fun fact, I forgot to put the 17 at the end of the slashes on Twitter IM SO EMBARRASSING FR 😭)

Realized I forgot to introduce Eileen again LMAO
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
My sea shanty interest was reignited and I was like “:O Boston is a coastal town I can make a sailor oc!!” And promptly remembered Far Harbour exists and so now she is there :)
She left the mainland after nearly destroying the entire commonwealth for her kiddo Eliza. Blew up the Prydwen, Railroad, nearly collapsed the Minutemen, and eventually destroyed the Institute when they created a synth version of her husband and she realized just how much they were manipulating her. She left Eliza with Nick and fucked off North, a good fifty miles past the Nakano residence, where she fixes up an old boat and fishes the days away in solitude. Nick eventually finds her a year or two later and needs her boat to head to far harbour to find Kasumi Nakano, and they get stranded there together cuz a sea monster basically ate her boat :)
Anyway she’s also from Newfoundland and Labrador, got military training from soldiers she helped guide through the Northwest Passage, and commonly goes by “The Lobstermonger” in Far Harbour due to her hiding her identity out of shame for all she’s done. I <3 her I’m sorry

leg saga continued…
so, I have had constant chronic leg pain and restlessness since November of last year. I have officially reached the stage (of whatever the hell this is) where I suddenly get really weak in my legs?? And my arms are starting to get weak as well. No pain and no restlessness, only weakness (in my arms) So yeah things are getting weird here.. I also suddenly started getting mobility aid advice on Pinterest which feels like some kind of omen…
I’m preparing to have to start some kind of uh idk treatment?? Aid??? (I’m supposed to be in physical therapy right now but my therapist keeps forgetting about me :’)). But yeah, I don’t know if I’m ready to possibly lose the use of my legs or leg. Which could be possible. I know this may seem dramatic (and it probably is) but Ive really been losing use of my limbs lately. I’ve never had any bad medical issues or had any severe injuries, only many, mostly minor ankle sprains over the course of two years.
tldr, the future is not looking bright right now… should I be concerned😭

i am a synthv user primarily because 1) i was always kind of a moresampler main on utau already :3c and 2) i am easily swayed by affordable pricing and extremely user friendly interfaces BUT the one problem with synthv studios focus on realism is how instead of just distorting vocals that are too high or low out of range, instead they just get breathier and REALLY quiet, you can get around it okay with parameter shenanigans but thats one think i really prefer about voisona and utau or sv editor - this is purely a preference thing, but I do love putting a synth far below its range and have it still functional (albeit robotic) LIKE go into c2. i know you sound like a broken jackhammer. go into c2.
