Oscar’s note being illegible was because of the patrons choosing the option to forget knowing him during episode 40, the other options being to forget meeting John and to forget the duck pond memory of Faroe, which Arthur called his happiest. So sadly it was seen as the best option out of the three that could possibly be lost 😔
I mean yeah I GUESS,, god that’s……... Harlan did this on purpose I mean ofc they’d pick Oscar obviously I’d also probably pick Oscar in this scenario,, he hates Oscar so much and for what
#THE POLL WAS RIGGED !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#HE WAS DOOMED FROM THE START#FUCK#I SHOULD’VE SEEN THIS COMING#KICKING THINGS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#ask#malevolent spoilers

In one of the most ancient religious texts known to man, the Rig Veda, the fire-priest god Agni is described as having many different forms that consist of fire. One such form is the volcano, and is known as Vāḍavāgni वाडवाग्नि, which literally translates to 'mare-fire.' Many hymns to him in the Rig laud his great destructive power, such as the following that demonstrates ancient knowledge of water existing beneath volcanoes:
O Agni, thou of Godlike nature, sparest the stones, while carving up the brushwood. Then are they tracks like deserts in the corn-lands. Let us not stir to wrath thy mighty arrow. O’er hills through vales devouring as thou goest, thou partest like an army fain for booty as when a barber shaves a beard, thou shavest earth when the wind blows on thy flame and fans it. Apparent are his lines as he approaches the course is single, but the cars are many, when, Agni, thou, making thine arms resplendent, advances o’er the land spread out beneath thee. Now let thy strength, thy burning flames fly upward, thine energies, O Agni, as thou toilest. Gape widely, bend thee, waxing in thy vigour: let all the Vasus sit this day beside thee. This is the waters’ reservoir, the great abode of gathered streams. — Rig Veda 10.142.3-7

ok. curious.
okay because listen. this isn't like 'fix it fic he lives happily ever after and is now diana's stepdad.' i mean IN THE FILM do you actually think he should have lived. cause i for one think its more interesting for adam to die.

my brain is itching to write like a 3000 word essay on na baekjin but i don't know what to say like where do i even begin with this kid. golden child, promising young man, treated like trash from childhood so learns how to attack instead of defending himself. like, nothing he does is normal, everything is too much, everything is taken too far with him. he has to be excellent at everything, nothing is ever good enough, it can always be taken one step farther, improved, perfected. he doesn't know where to draw the line, or what the line even looks like. it's that one math problem he keeps getting wrong and even when sieun tells him the right answer he's frustrated because it was never about the answer, it was about him not figuring it out himself. he got it wrong. how could he get it wrong? how could anyone else but him figure it out? it doesn't matter that he meticulously crafted the entire puzzle, it's that someone else put in the last missing piece. and he can't take it! how dare anyone surpass him! after everything he's done! after getting so far! his calculated gaze holds so much aggression and pain and greed and he uses his calm demeanor to mask all of that burning rage. and it's so tough, to constantly hide the fact that you're screaming inside but he does it flawlessly. yet. ultimately violence wins. that missing puzzle piece costs him his life. he was always meant to make the wrong choices. he was always meant to lose. he was born a puppet hanging on strings. so he cut them loose. but the solid ground underneath was a mirage and he fell into a bottomless pit. an endless abyss that consumed him whole.
#[insert brennan's monologue here]#the game was RIGGED FROM THE BEGINNING!!! HE! CANNOT! WIN!!!#i could ramble on forever about how unfair it all was. getting involved with the wrong crowd#not seeing baku's intentions for what they were#i wish they delved into his backstory with his parents siblings etc more. there was definitely smth more painful there#tragic!!! my tragical fail doomed by the narrative blorbo!!!#na baekjin#weak hero class 2#weak hero class two#whc2#moon talks

every bit of news feels like I've been pushed out of a plane without a parachute and someone followed after me to say "hey, you don't have a parachute. hey, you're falling to your death. hey, it's bad you don't have a parachute!" as I plummet toward the ground.
#us politics#yeah I know we're doomed and things are bad there is literally nothing I or anyone with morals can do about it#I better get a boyfriend or a dog within the next four years to keep me alive or else I'll be dead before the next rigged election#to boldly queue

Dood still wakes the deep has to be one of the best horror games in recent that I've played. One of the best depictions of cosmic horror that gets more dreadful the more your replay it and realize you doom yourself simply by being there. It was a losing battle from the start
#the location is genius as well#trapped on an oil rig in the middle of the ocean#not only is the weird cosmic biomass your enemy but also the environment as the ship falls apart#and replaying it makes you realize you were infected from the get go and going back to mainland if u escaped ment doom to everyone u loved#and the side characters rlly added humanity#also voice acting feels so genuine#ending was gut wrenching literally 'if only' type feeling#still wakes the deep

Finished playing Still Wakes The Deep and I've developed a massive phobia of oil rigs. And of the incomprehensible, divine horrors that probably lie sleeping at the bottom of the ocean. And of Scotland
#I sobbed so hard at the ending#because immediately when you see what's happening you understand Caz and everyone is doomed from the start#but they keep giving you hope#Go here! Do this! Run from that! Talk to them!#and it all amounts to nothing#family flashbacks also always get me so bad#but yeah. I'm never going anywhere near an oil rig or Scotland ever again#because where else would the God like horrors be but Scotland#still wakes the deep#mel's thoughts#mel's rambles

ngl watching everyone on this hellsite who seemed so upset over senior employee axing, crunch culture and general gametechfuckery switch sides the minute a(nother) (bad) trailer drops, in a manner that almost makes you wonder if they're at least earning some money out of the parasocial promotion to make it worthwhile (some of them even confirmed to be on the actual payroll) is... terrifying to say the least.
if i tried to write on the topic of fantasy as entertainment reserved for the wealthy, the text would be so long it would reach the moon. so i guess i'll just leave it at this: class solidarity really is paramount, huh. have you tried having some shame for once?
#og#txt#da4#da:tv#critical: bioware#critical: fandom#kal-sharambles#really makes you wonder how would y'all respond to a bigger issue if the other side gave you a shiny new toy to distract you#i tried to be excited i really did but got the apollo's dodgeball thrown into my face the other day#thru my 'dwarves are doomed to be back-burned ad infinitum' post#+ the option of redirecting my 60+ usadollars into a smaller company that's actually transparent about how they spend it#instead of being expected to spend 6000 on a rig that will be able to run the game in the first place... has aged like wine 🍷

i really wanna do perci + staci redesigns because UGHHH
#sonic#sonic boom#perci the bandicoot#staci the bandicoot#they were doomed by the narrative#not by the actual narrative rather the narrative of their creation#i get that the show's budget was sort of quantity over quality (at least im guessing)#so that's great. 2 new characters and you only have to model + rig them once#but the fact that there is lore behind them while theyre mostly just used to make twins jokes and be extras...#i mean perci does have her own episode. where she isnt being herself for most of it.#but staci is just “perci's twin” and for one episode “manipulative girlfriend”

The way qiu qingzhi/qiu shenji sees through lb instantly regardless of medium and yet still misses the most important part.
#the whole bit in the cdrama where they're discussing how well they know each other and qqz says he knows lb better than lb realises#and he's not wrong! but qqz still doesn't understand him /enough/ to avert everything. meanwhile lb does know qqz better than qqz realises#bc even when saying they're not friends lb still /believes/ in him or at least knows enough of him to know which accusations are false.#they both understand the other more than the other realises whilst still holding back from each other.#meanwhile in the manhua/donghua lb tries to reach out and hits a wall w/ qsj bc qsj understands the politics of this more than lb does#despite lb losing his family and distrusting the empress his sense of justice still makes him too easily to manipulate.#the tensions btwn minister xu + qsj had been stoked but qsj refused to rise to it (even w/o knowing the extent of bg manipulation)#but lb was the piece in the right position to fast track the 'investigation' not realising it could only ever lead to a rigged execution#in both cases everyone is trapped by something bigger than themselves. can only work w/n the framework that will lead to their doom.#it's just that only qsj/qqz is fully aware of it. lb doesn't yet comprehend. he thinks he does. but until qqz/qsj takes the hit he doesn't.#and qsj/qqz miscalculating wrt lb. reading his 'show' for what it is. but still missing the most important detail.#qsj/qqz fumbling the personal side bc of the politics whilst lb barges into the politics w/o fully reading the waves he's creating...#anyway don't mind me. just intensely glad the tag isn't dead even if the overlap of cdrama and manhua/donghua watchers is tiny.#white cat legend#white cat legend spoilers#<- for my own tags again

I think I've identified something pretty funny and ironic about my taste in unwilling kink scenes/stories: I prefer scenarios that are totally inescapable over scenarios where there's a chance for escape.
The main reason is because there's never actually a chance for escape, it's just to give the character a goal to struggle for and fail at. And for me, watching characters fail often feels bad, especially after they tried so hard. I'm not the biggest fan of struggling either, so all the trying to escape just feels like a distraction from the fun.
In my unwilling stories, I tend to seal the character's fate pretty early on; in stories like Plufri the Plushie Dragon, the character fights to resist and fails, but it happens quickly and early, in this case before the story even starts. Even when there's resistance, it's clear there's no escape. My story Thorn's Helpless Relaxation even straight-up says "their fate was sealed" in the second paragraph. The struggle is more a matter of flavor and principle than success or failure.
Because isn't that so comforting? Isn't it so much nicer to be helpless, then to struggle out of false hope? When there's no hope for escape, it makes it so much easier to submit~
#original#hornyposting#i do enjoy using resistance for plot reasons like in Thorn's Helpless Relaxation#but i don't like false hope. it feels cruel which is not my thing#i like the idea of subverting it; a victim winning a rigged game and escaping#“hey wait that's not how it was supposed to go”#or a victim choosing to not even try to escape#i especially like the thought of a dom starting to explain the game that if the victim wins they'll be free#and then the victim immediately and purposefully loses the game “don't mock me like that i know you won't let me go. just get it over with”#this post was inspired by me finding a writer whose subject matter i enjoy but who seems to really like struggling and false hope for escap#also found a few words to add to my list of words i don't like: “doom” “peril” and “torture”#i see those words from Caroo a lot so i already knew i didn't like them but seeing him hyping up writers with those words solidified it#the conflict between subject matter and those details makes me go back and forth on whether to watch Caroo
