Loser Wesker practically barking because reader is back and now in hd in Evil Resident™ Remake!!$!$!$!!$

Back from the Dead... sort of.

He hasn't seen them in ages, and as a fan of such an iconic(and unfortunately deceased) character, the smallest crumb or appearance of his favorite Evil Resident character is enough to have him obsessing over the remake just to view the Reader in all their glory. In which, Loser! Wesker starts raving like the fanatic he is over his beloved villain.

When it was first announced that they were remaking the fourth installation of the mainline game, Wesker couldn't say that he really cared, the protagonist of that game wasn't his favorite to play through but it set the foundation for how the future games would play like. The grinding for better weapons wasn't all that great either, and there were certain parts that he'd rather skip over from how tedious they were, and he honestly wouldn't have pre-ordered it had it not been for one very important detail. Since the fifth release of the Evil Resident franchise, you would finally be making a return, and such was teased in the trailer for the remake. He recalls watching it for the first time, with baited breath as the teaser played out. The better graphics was certainly something to behold, but none of that mattered until he saw the familiar outline of your face, only in better detail and played by someone who encompassed the very idea of who you were.

And then, when he didn't think it could be any better than it was, he was graced by that lovely voice of yours. The sweet sound of your timbre elicited a response within himself that could be likened to a starving dog, just about ready to have his treat. Swallowing thickly, he had to calm himself, pressing a gloved hand to his mouth to quickly muffle and suppress the downright joy at finally having his muse return to him. And in such an honorable fashion. Wesker had his doubts, because there was only so much a mere actor could comprehend about you, they likely wouldn't play you to the tune he desired for your image and character... but this was something, something after years of nothing. The only thing he could celebrate your existence through was the erasure of your death via fanfics and indulging in the content that others lovingly crafted for you.

Now he could have more to play with, more content to keep him pacified and sated until the next installment receives its inevitable remake or remaster. You might be nearing the precipice of your death, retold for the next generation, but he would savor every moment he could have with you. Yet again, you're at the front and center of his mind, this time seating yourself(literally) in the center of his screen as he analyzes every subtle movement that he can. Hell, he hasn't even started playing it yet, and he's already taking as many pictures as he can for his designated folder on his hard drive. The devil works hard, but Wesker works harder. And when he finally receives his copy, he cannot help himself but to stare at the paused cutscene where your mocking grin graces his monitor. Observing you closely, he wants to make sure that he gets everything right, equipped with a notebook in hand even.

If you think the slightest thing is getting past his eye, you'd be dead wrong. This close appraisal of your character is imperative to the new wave of fics he has to write now, because if even the slightest detail is off, it will irritate him. Especially if some upity new fan thinks they can unseat him from the throne he has crafted within the community. No one gets you like he does, and Wesker isn't shy of announcing that to the new fans that make abhorrent judgements about your character. The mischaracterization of his beloved muse could very well be his demise, but he would rather die than to let those degenerates capture you all wrong. Your time might've been sparse in the remake, but it was time enough, DLC included.

Ok the more of The Good Wife I watch the more I see Elspeth Tascioni, the more I realise she is a goddamn delight. I am so excited I have her spin off to look forward to.

Meanwhile, the boring husband is 'gone' (I'm assuming Kalinda killed him but we'll see). So the show is infinitely more watchable. Even if I feel like Archie Panjabi is being wasted on this show at this point.

i lay down to sleep and i remember that ryusui’s immeasurable greed is born out of his equally immeasurable wish to take care of people he loves, that his love and loyalty and devotion to the kingdom of science grew until it became a predominant aspect of his character, up to the point that he got petrified FOUR TIMES for it, that without the wealth he possessed before petrification the only way to channel and exemplify his care was through monopolizing his irreplaceable expertise as captain and pilot and sharpshooter yet offering it freely and constantly as the only currency worth ANYTHING in the stone world , that he grew and loved these people he comes to see as family enough to dismiss and overcome his greed and live knowing he will never have reached the stars and explored them as he has the ocean, enough to show incredible selflessness and give up his ticket to the moon, enough to admit inferiority to the man he views as his biggest rival and equal in skill and allow stanley to go to space with senku, just because he knows stanley is the better choice, and he loves senku and values his/their cause enough to, at the cost of HIS OWN pleasure and opportunity, try to minimize the chance of failure as much as he’s able to, and i stay awake and toss and turn in my bed until morning

I wanna relisten to the magnus archives because I love Jonny's writing very much but at the same time I have deep personal vendetta against Alex, and the fact that I now know JonDaisy won't be end game AT ALL despite me holding out for it for irl years lmao.

And the ending being a unaware metaphor for never finding personal autonomy because the manipulative societal expectations of "romantic love" are more important then overcoming addiction and being yourself I guess, and it makes me sad. Also I still hate Alex

[yioh]

these make me think about kaeya and diluc honestly it’s so heartbreaking 🥲🥲

Ya know what? It is one of my goals in life to convince all my mutuals to check out Tales of Arcadia.

[fandom-blackhole]

No, ok its been almost 24 hrs since I watched episode 5 of The Last of Us and I really can't stop thinking about it. SPOILERS

Like can you imagine living in and growing up in a QZ that is notorious around the country for having some of the lowest of the low FEDRA soldiers, ones that are known to dish out harsh and cruel punishments, who rape and murder for little reason. Then you find a bit of hope in a man running a resistance, who's trying to make the QZ a better, safer place for the people, someone you find that you can look to, a good leader. But oh no, suddenly your younger brother, who already has a disability that limits him greatly in the world you live in, suddenly has leukemia and the only way you can get medicine that will help him is if you trade someone else's life for his own. Imagine having to grapple with that guilt, with having to make yourself decide between your only family left and a man you see as one of the few good ones left, and ultimately deciding to save your brother. And it works, your brother is safe, healed and no longer sick, but now you're hated by pretty much everybody. So when shit goes down and the resistance led by the man's sister takes over, you know you have to leave because once again, you're brother's life is in danger, so you do whatever you have too, including going into tunnels that are known to have infected and recruit a man you've never met but can tell is very dangerous just from what you've seen. And well things go well, you get through the tunnels without fighting any infected, you've heard your brother laugh and seen him have fun for the first time in who knows how long, things are looking up. But boom, everything goes to shit in a blink of an eye, a whole army shows up lead by the sister, you beg for her to let your brother go and she just sneers about kids dying everyday and that maybe he was meant to die. And welp, boom again, shit gets worse and he'll pretty much unleashes before your eyes and you watch as the infected start taking down everyone around you. But you do make it out, some how unscathed and you feel like the luckiest man on the planet, your brother is here, alive and happy, you get an offer to go to Wyoming with the man that you've teamed up with, everything feels like its gonna be okay for the first time since ever.....what you don't expect is the next morning to wake up to your brother trying to claw and bite at the girl you'd been traveling with, the girl he'd made friends with. You don't expect things to happen so fast and to act on instinct as you shoot your only family, your only reason to keep pushing for better. The kid you've raised and loved and cherished and fought to save time and time again in what felt like a constant uphill battle. You never expected this. You thought you were safe, that HE was safe. What was it all? Nothing? Every decision, every hard choice, every sacrifice for this to be the way he went.....

Idk, just as someone with 2 younger sisters that I played a big role in raising and trying to protect, I can relate to Henry....and I know that I too wouldn't be able to go on if that happened to me, especially if it was by my hand.....

[frankensteinmutual]

genuinely though I think I cannot overstate how much this tv show means to me like I think it might have surpassed black sails and twin peaks in its importance at this point and that. says an awful lot

Twins

[dreamy-cryptid]

watching the last of us is like ha you thought this was a zombie show? PSYCH it’s an emotionally devastating exploration of how love will absolutely destroy you but it’s also the only thing worth surviving for

[demento-mori]

Also. Ive been keeping notes on the game as ive been playing (themes, motifs, imagery, literary allusions, stuff like that) and ive come to some......... worrying conclusions.

... I think I might know how the game ends and it scares me.
