Oh you have NO IDEA... ^^'

And this here marks the moment were our shipping fun ends and the shipping pain starts... oh joy...

You know that these days I am not such a big enemy of Ouroboros anymore... but there are certain people there that really need to die. He was one of the ones who needed to be dead, and while I still feel sorry for the way he had to die and Kevins role in it, I still somewhat think Weissmann got what he deserved.

Yeah... IF you EVER get married, that is...

Yeah it will. After... one more game of... suffering and pain and heartbreak and frustration and waiting until freaking chapter 6 to be finally able to fucking fix this! URG! I am not looking forward to this. The second sky game had a really bad pacing and the writing of the Joshua and Estelle situation had been seriously lacking until they FINALLY reunited. So... uh...

The things I do for love...

(And here I am... quoting Crow...)

You will never get something like this in a modern Trails-Game... but that also means avoiding the heartbreak that follows ^^'

Oh the pain!

If you haven't noticed that... Falcom is really good at ending a game in a way that... makes sure you see that wretched fairytale to the end if you get me.

I am kind of glad I finished the game. Even tho what's coming next isn't very fun ^^' Or the one that is coming after that one. But... oh well...

I have to say tho... that all in all the Sky-Saga is really nice. Its just that the games haven't aged super well and that it really makes you see Falcoms biggest weaknesses. The interesting part of the plot FINALLY kicks in around chapter 3 and the final chapter is often dragged on and on and on and on and on and that can make you get tired of it at a very crucial point. BUT all in all it was a very nice story. And it has great characters. And once again, watching the game with the future knowledge I have is a fun thing in itself.

I guess I will play the second Sky game next, even tho I am not really having many fond memories of it regarding the pacing. But... oh well.

But since I have to go back to work tomorrow I should better now start today. Maybe the next weekend. We will see.

Until then... maybe you should listen to the "Whereabout of light"? It will set the right mood for the next game XD

That aside. We can still look forward to the next game as we will have some amazing shipping moments for almost all our ships at some point. And lots of Olivert! Lets look forward to it! ♥

I think the Internet would be a funnier place if the fantasy text that defined our generation was "The Amazing Maurice and His Educated Rodents" or "The Wee Free Men" instead of "Harry Potter". If the hero of a generation was Tiffany Aching and not Harry Potter. If the mentor of a generation was Granny Weatherwax.

We'd certainly be better read and more knowledgeable, since not only is there a lot more Discworld than HP, but Discworld also makes you want to learn more about our world to understand the jokes in Discworld.

Also, there'd be actually good adaptations of Discworld (not looking at you, Sky1 Hogfather).

Your blog is amazingly beautiful!

@silent-sky1

Ahh!!! you make my day, and I will take time to visit your page. Thank you!

By the way, my blog has no secrets, you can make it public, because as long as it is a "secret", it must be buried in a secret place, and I will still not say it even if I am sentenced to death. 🤣😂🤣

Here is the an alternate way to possibly get Lockwood and co a new home:

Identify broadcast networks where it would fit (BBC, Sky1, ITV, etc). Streaming platforms are a nonstarter due to contract reasons.

Identify the executives at those networks with the authority to say yes. Inundate them with letters. Send them PowerPoint printouts outlining how our show fits their audience (and their advertisers?). Give them compliments about shows they've greenlit before.

Relationship Status: so chronically single it’s bordering parody 

Favorite colour: Nature green! The darker and richer, the better. 

Song stuck in my head: Ya know, it’s been oscillating between Adele’s Easy on Me, and Countdown by Beyonce since I needed a bop

Last song I listened to: Opera Fight from EEAAO

Three favorite foods: I’m a classic Pizza Slut, but also egg noodles in any kind of fashion. Not to mention burek (Slavs wya?)

Last thing I googled: “Saturated vs. Unsaturated groundwater.” I’ve been asked to give a talk about karst geology and caves to my alma mater so I needed a refresher

Dream trip: There’s a cave in France you can float around in something called an areoplume in. Literally tons of helium is holding you up and you just float around a huge cave. That, or a caving expedition to an unknown cave and be the first human to step into a place no one has ever stepped into before (a bucket list item of mine)

One thing i'm craving right now: warmer weather, a blunt, and a cheese danish

I’m passing this along to these hotties: @hereandthere123123 @falling-planet @calvijnsmain and @hole-therapy

Happy 91st Birthday John Anderson Scottish television personality best known as referee and official trainer on the UK version of Gladiators.

I have three differing places of birth for John, Edinburgh, Glasgow or Fife, so who knows! 

Anderson had a successful career long before his athletics and TV fame. Plaudits included representing Scotland as a schoolboy footballer, becoming the first home Scot to gain the prestigious Full FA Coaching Certificate (then only four were awarded per year) He was the first full time National Coach in Scotland

Apart from the confusion about where he was born, I know he is regarded as a Glaswegain, he was a pupil at Queen’s Park Secondary School at the same time as Ally MacLeod.    They became firm friends and played together for the Scotland Schools team then when John was  National Coach, Ally was manager of the Scottish football team.   At a personal level, John was best man when Ally was married.

The sportsman then ventured into the world of coaching and trained some of the most elite British athletes of the 1970s and 80s.

Including former world record-holding runner Dave Moorcroft and double Commonwealth 10,000m champion Liz McColgan.

In an outstanding feat, he's coached an Olympian at every summer games between 1964 and 2000.

He joined the Saturday night show Gladiators in 1992 and stayed with it until it ended its original run at the end of 2000.Anderson became famous for getting the crowd pumped up with his iconic "Contender ready? Gladiator ready?" catchphrases. In 2008 the silver fox reprised his Gladiators role when the show was briefly rebooted on Sky1 in 2008.

Despite surviving a heart attack in 2015 – he has continued to mentor and coach athletics stars in recent years.

Gladiators is returning to the BBC next year, I don’t know if John will be involved

Well it wouldn't be the first in certainly won't be the last time ^^'

Always with the long-haired wig...

These soldiers are always playing dirty. No Erebonian Army-Man with pride would do something like that. Heck, I think even most of our Erebonian Jeager wouldn't do something like that. We do like to win "fair and square" in Erebonia. Or... at least we usually do not take any hostages to get what we want - stealing princes to activate Testa Rossa aside, but Duke Cayenne was certainly not a Military-Man and he did not use him as a hostage so that doesn't even count! *achem*

Seriously tho... you can say what you want about Erebonia and their army, but their pride is certainly unmachted.

Schera! I have been wondering when you would finally show up.

Now would you look at that, she brought her future husband along. How convenient XD (No complaints from me, that's for sure, but its somewhat hilarious to witness all that with the knowledge of the future ^^')

Uh... what have you two been up to? I thought you went drinking. That sounds like Schera had a late night snake after the drinks tho ^^'

Uh... close enough, I guess XD

Also: I would have NEVER found that spot without a god Walkthrough. The map was hilarious like... I had no idea were my starting point was or the marker that Zin said was there ^^'

I absolutely agree. Without Estelles S-Craft I would have been done for.

EXCUSE ME?'! Kill him girls! (Joking, I am joking... mostly...)

Uff! This guy was a nightmare to deal with...

I... uh... guess that Agate has never seen the Queen before? ^^'

Well it certainly did not. People on Twitter YouTube and Reddit mention it all the time how this looks like Steam-Punkt, while Crossbell is already immensely modern with and Erebonias follows up with its (until then...) state of the art Panzer Soldats and after that we have Calvard who probably just a huge chunk of the preparation money the got from Erebonia to build a rocketship AND not to forget the things Marduk seems to be capable off.

Sadly... as soon as a country arc is over it seems its loosing almost all of its power and advantages. Liberl at this point in the game is only superior in one thing: Airships. And that was almost taken over by Erebonia too. So... I can kind of understand his sentiment here. Liberl is quite the lost cause between those powerhouses that are Calvard and Erebonia and while Crossbell does lack in size and military power, it certainly makes up for it when it comes to its economical position and the advantages that come with that. Its not just that. We start out with Liberl as one of the countries were the whole Bracer business works out the best, given how Erebonia needed Militäry-Student for help and Crossbell needed the Special Suppor Section to handle things despite the Bracers. However, even tho I wouldn't say that Calvards overall Bracers are better than Liberls, their whole system seems to function entirely better. And no one seems to think to get people like the Brights or Agate for help, when Calvard is in need of more bracers. Instead, we get a newbie from the Enemy-Country. I guess that says A LOT about the fact that even the Bracers of Liberl do not seem to be superior anymore to them in any other countries. So Liberl is... basically a lost cause and I think Richard saw that coming and although misguided, he only wanted the best for his country and its future. That is at least something someone can understand, despite the fact that he obviously did absolutely EVERYTHING wrong in his try to give his country a chance in the future.

I thought I was relatively prepared thanks to the new game plus... but this is ridiculous. Loewe was already hard. Richard was certainly anything but a walk in the Park either and now this thing. I think I've fought enough for one freaking damn day.

URG! This is bad and no fun at all. This fight is far too hard for my liking. And I likely brought the wrong people with me so... T.T

I couldn't agree more...

Look who had a last-minute change of heart...

And here he is the biggest, fattest gloryhound in the whole Trails-Saga - and if I as a Rean fan dare to say that, than trust me, it is true...

Estelle might not know much about her father oh so heroic past but trust me, she does know her father very well...
