#tho I did make a comp of funny moments

[nero-draco]

Since there probably won't be any more FGO JP events for this year I figure I'll try to rate + give opinions of them. Its entirely subjective though.

Reines case files collab

Normally I won't put rerun but since it does have decent amount of new contents this one is an exception.

+My opinion of Hephaestion is favorable. Amidst the fanservices (I'm neutral to them) galore of designs on FGO, that she has modest design and cool armor feels refreshing to me.

+Characterwise is ok too I guess. I do like her reasoning of not joining Iskandar before this. Her grudge toward Iskandar's follower is understandable. That said she doesn't have strong character gimmick that makes her memorable.

+Her IOIOIOIOI-ing with Iskandar was a great moment. So is the battle on top of the train with cool CG.

+The expanding lore is great. The master of the train being a Dead Apostle was cool. The lore of nasuverse os pretty cool with a lot of untapped potential.

-I feel like Hephaestion close bond with Guda feels a bit forced. I don't think even a day has passed with them, and I feel like the game could fleshes out a bit more to make it more relatable. Granted Hephaestion's stort is limited to extra content so I guess they can't make it too long.

+Hephaestion gameplay wise is pretty good imo. She is still the only Single Target NP Pretender so that gives her great value on that alone. Her 100% charge gives her great utility when it comes to farming, particularly lv90+ ones since that's where the enemy comp is no longer 3/3/3.

Didn't read the story so no comment on that.

+I like the buddy system. You're forced to think more about your farming comp since the bonus bond point a servant get is relative to how close they are to the frontline. So its up to you to prioritize which, or if you want to think extra to try to reap the most benefits.

+Them giving special extra screen announcing which of your servant get the most bond point is a nice touch. Regarding they keeping this a secret until the event is over is something I'm 50/50 about.

+Bazzett is uh an interesting servant. She has special counter gimmick on her NP. I don't have her so I can't speak much but I've seen her minturn a really difficult fight in this game such as Cernunnos or the recent EQ on Morgan event. Of course its uses whale setup but its still impressive imo.

+Story wise its pretty interesting. Midway they just played a quiz + game to resolve a singularity is something I didn't expect. I also find it funny that a freak accident somehow created a situation / monster that the likes of CuTer, ArjuTer, and Enkidu can't resolve/ beat. It took like 11+ servants united to combat the whole situation which is impressive I guess, from something that practically a work from a random mage.

+They give glasses look for like 11+ servants, which is cool (I wish Nero Bride got one too. Really loves her glasses look from Extella x Eyemirror collab which gives her "Intelligent Wife" vibe.

+No new servant released but they did introduce Michael (aka Constantine), which eh, really gives interesting contrast to how he is at Lostbelt 6.5 Traum.

+Honestly not sure I'm a fan of Servant universe just randomly waltz into Chaldea. Like they are way too powerful (tech wise) and break the immersion of the setting. What prevents Chaldea to allies with them to combat Alien God?

+Ody finally got his Kamen "Cool as fuck" Rider suit. So that's a big plus (even though I failed to get him...).

+Nikola also got rad animation update, and story relevance that finally is not about his rivalry with Edison.

- I'm kinda sad that they basicallly have Nero say that Nerofest is no longer a thing. I wonder why the writer put that, it makes me think that there are demands for Nerofes to happen again but Lasagna doesn't want to (meanwhile Liz event has Nasu excitedly says that her event will run forever. Fair world amiright.)

+ Nero teamup with G.Romulus and seems like Nero is more at ease in interacting with him warms my heart tho.

+ Not as good as previous April Fools mixmatch servants sprite, but its still pretty fun.

+Only read the summary storywise and I even forget what the latter half is all about so I guess nothing mind-blowing.

+They introducing a SEA servant is a cool move. Not big on the whole "representation matters" thing but I thought its still pretty rad regardless, and I'm not opposed to it. I like Trung design too, very refreshing.

+Event gimmick is basically just reusing Summer 1 gimmick. Still pretty fun though. I had fun doing Roma build up, and building Nero's theater.

- The whole keeping up the welfare a secret is kinda a letdown though. It just build up unnecessary expectations and ended up not filling it.

+Trung is okay I guess. Don't have her but I remember reading the review where she is rated as decent. Taisui is also not bad, his buff removal resist is useful in case you missed Santa Nightingale.

- I wish we kept Adult Taisui design instead of his child one.

+ I only read little part of the story but from what I know the reception seems to be mid. Nothing special I guess. A shame.

- Event itself feels kinda lacking for a collab. Feels like just your run of the mill event. Previous events have more flare with them.

+ Super Bunyan is ok. I like her design especially her first ascension. Really cute. As for her personality, well, I can see people being disappointed with her more "manipulative" personality, which in contrast to OG Bunyan innocent personality. But I guess that's just how you grow up?

+ Not much opinion on Mary and Daikokuten. I can see people liking Mary though due to her, err, for the lack of word, "tsundere ish" personality.

+ Gameplay wise the new servants are just ok I guess. Mary is rated highly as good low star servants, while S.Bunyan and Daikokuten seems to be mid to okeyish. I do like S.Bunyan NP and gimmick which referencing Social Media trend.

Didn't read the story.

+ I have plenty fun with HGW battle in this event. They improved it a lot and makes it more fun. They also put interesting gimmick on later stages which makes it decently challenging.

+ Basically I have fun making Nero shines in this event.

- I only read the summary. The latter half of the event and the antagonist motive is rather forgettable to me. The cast involved also didn't have a strong chemistry. Feels like they just there for mission and they probably forgot about it in the next week.

+ The first half, however, is much memorable due to how ballsy the premise is. An archer servant powered by three holy grail shoots an arrow that the entire archer class servants of Chaldea (except Gilgamesh) has pool their force together to stop it. The sense of tension as you advance the story is very real. I also like the split focus and the forced archer team fights throughout the story.

+ Bakin has a lovely design. And Tametomo is a badass and cool mecha. I would roll them just for their design alone.

+ The gimmick of this event is nothing special, but still pretty cute though sending the dogs into a fetch quest.

+ Gameplay wise for the new servant I don't have much to say. From what I know they're pretty good but not top tier.

I wrote about this event in notepad, and when I was about to copy it here I accidentally deleted it so fuck that. I'm not in the mood anymore. Luckily only regarding this event got deleted so I'll just write it again in other post tomorrow. I also reached image limit in this post anyway.

Continuation here

[ohwell-itsme-but-danganronpa]

DRS: Junko Enoshima

Okay, Junko, I guess this is gonna be a life-changing experience for the both of us then.

you've already subverted my expectations thrice and it's been a minute, you're doing amazing sweetie

so she stays super nice in first 3 events, with Aoi, Mahiru, Akane & Tenko and then there's some sort of relapse into despair, she was doing fine and now she brings up despair and being bored again, having mood swings, very forgot-her-meds behavior if I am honest

it puts her conversation with Makoto in context (yes, it's her 5th event, makes me wonder if it's even a part of Makoto's since it was at the end of his comp, after "My Future", she's unstable again and lashing out, he doesn't take it to heart, reassures her the best he can

she's just second guessing whether there's a hopeful future for her, for a moment she accepts Makoto's words, but thinks about it and takes a double take, assuming he's a bad judge of character, because she can't believe it right now

looks like she bounced back after talking with Makoto, she's kinda picking on Mondo, but it's friendly banter and backhanded compliments

maybe I am overanalyzing stuff, but I started thinking that maybe her conversation with Tenko and Akane was what set her off? They both told her that they're happy with simple concepts, good things are just good, but she isn't the type to be able to leave it at that

nobody does it like her

so Togami didn't go to the barbecue, hmm

queen, I think that's a depressive episode, try not to end the world during it

and her Potential of Talent is right after this, I am worried

yikes

they're talking about her burn out and Kaede has nothing helpful to say, but Junko is still being appreciative and finding a good side, she's trying so hard to be better *the pleading face emoji*

ok, so Shirokuma is fucking useless, conversation with Aoi was interesting, starting with the fact that she fished for the opinion without telling her anything, Junko really cares about her classmates, so I think she didn't want to worry her

how did it go from Ibuki complimenting their muscles to the 3 of the admitting they always think they could do more & better and nothing is enough

he called her Junkie

he also calls her dude at least trice, looks like she's really not going to let him read her fortune tho

the way she does fortunte telling at the festival makes me think she winged it, simply getting an idea because her last interaction was with Hiro, it's also nice that we do get to see his reaction

the interaction with Monaca is concerning, but her thought at the end makes me think that maybe she's just telling her what she wants to hear?

Kaito is so masc it makes him fire-resistant btw

Komaeda & Enoshima having a philosophical conversation about fire, what genius came up with it

so in the end I don't know why she gets the hope fragment, she says she'll hope to despair and that despair is her hope, but also wonders if she'll ever escape despair, so it's not true that she wants that as she told monokuma

she just feels like despair is her only option, no matter what the result is despair, so she tries to get back into it and enjoy it, she can tell that to monokuma, but she asks herself if she can escape

First posted on December 9-10, 2021 (twitter) Detailed notes below:

Introduction: She wants to what?! Junko chooses hope, hell froze over.

first event: Aoi Asahina

she was honest?! She legit warned Hina her swimsuit's strap was slipping

she choose her swimsuit "for laughs", in contrast of what's expected from her, it's a place to try new things/ones they normally wouldn't

yeah, Hina, like all of us, assumed Junko would wear something skimpy, "showing everything"

"I decided to subvert expectations" and you're doing it

She's funny, I think I'm in love

second event: Mahiru Koizumi

And she complimented Mahiru just like that

offering to pose for her in a professional setting

"and I am not just saying that, just FYI"

helping so willingly, making plans for the future, she's being so nice here

Someone you'd like to show those photos to, huh?

third event: Akane Owari & Tenko Chabashira

when Akane chews loudly at the start it looks like she's disgusted, or at least a little stunned before she comes up with a nice thing to say. "Agreed" to nothing being said "this island is full of great food"

Or maybe she's interpreting what Akane's saying with her mouth full, like Tenko thinks she does

"judging by the look on her face, I think I nailed it" She did! once again better than what I expected

glut-shame! squirelly! Those two are weirdos.

interesting convo about vocabulary and simple facts, feat. Tenko being gay. If something's good, it's good.

4th event: Kaede Akamatsu & Tsumugi Shirogane (With Swimsuits)

Kaede's "I have no words" reaction to Junko's swimsuit

this time she calls it despair-inducing, why?

she's quoting her mastermind reveal "How do you feel? Shocked? Betrayed? Disgusted?"

Tsumugi's "Surprised, yes!" Unphased. "Hifumi's reaction should be fun" oh no,

"let's place bets if he gets a nosebleed or passes out" Oh no.

"I've gotten your reactions and now I'm bored of it" uh oh

"I'd be despairingly out of place at the beach." uhhh

she stays at the pool bc that's what her swimsuit is meant for, might "hit the beach" tomorrow anyway

Tsumugi admits she finds Junko incomprehensible sometimes. Junko to that "you can never *fully* understand anyone"

(uh, that felt like a completely different team wrote that, whiplash)

fifth event: Makoto Naegi (his last event? it is.)

it's a direct follow-up here, after she swam in the pool, so it makes sense, she's acting the way she did with Kaede and Tsumugi, some sort of relapse, here she hints at why, with girls it was out of the blue, but to him she voices how she feels, that she wants to give up on her goal, doesn't believe there's a hopeful future for her

her double take on Makoto's words comes from her insecurities, at first she believes him and then deflates, it's easier to believe he's wrong at the moment

sixth event: Mondo Owada

he's yelling at WoH, apparently they hate him

"I know I look scary to kids, you don't gotta remind me" hmm

"you've gotta be more gentle with kids", yeah, you know how to handle WoH, I remember.

"Generational thing", I think she's vagueing at your hair, dude

she's picking on him, but no despair this far

"I thought you would say long biker jackets", ig points to him for the "people wear what they want" attitude

Are you complimenting him or bullying him?

he comments that she's acting like someone else and she tells him to forget it. A moment of vulnerability? No, didn't happen.

"the virtual reality is messing with my head" uh huh

seventh event: Toko Fukawa & Mikan Tsumiki

Tsumiki's happy to see Junko, Toko's upset about something so Junko asked about the gloomy mood

oh, she's annoyed to see Junko, says it with no hesitation, but that's Toko for you

Toko "everyone has bad mojo with someone", Junko "In your case, you probably have more bad mojo than good."

Toko bragging that she has one friend now. Smug about it!

"here I thought I was your friend, Toko" sounds like bull

"Of course you're my friend too, Mikan. Isn't it a nice thought, being friends with all your peers?" Mikan's happy at least

eighth event: Monaca Towa & Gonta Gokuhara

Monaca is telling Junko a story involving her big brother (yucky)

they don't want anyone overhearing so she stops when Gonta joins them

even bugs like Junko (and listen to her?)

ninth event: Buyakuya Togami

"I figured you'd be here" she was looking for him? No, but Toko was

"I told her you might be on the beach. So uh, heads up?" He's not having it.

so he's sulking alone at the beach while other boys are having barbecue

they're both pretending not to care, aren't they?

he doesn't allow himself to be teased, he leaves, the moment she's left alone boredom kicks in and so does despair, my girl is depressed.

Potential of Talent:

"New potential? For me, despair itself was everything."

all three options say "What was despair again?"

Kaede feeling bad for her bc she "got tired of the thing you enjoyed the most", she doesn't have advice, but Junko appreciates her listening and getting to talk about life like a normal high school girl

Shirokuma is completely unhelpful, Junko wonders if she's nothing now

Aoi compliments her swimming stamina too, you could be my rival, huh? Accidental insight, she wasn't asking here, but got her answer - somebody who lost things important to them ought to be different, Junko without despair is a different Junko

tenth event: Ibuki Mioda & Sakura Oogami

Junko is also athletic, which Ibuki compliments

all of them strive to always improve, never satisfied, trying to do more & better

eleventh event: Yasuhiro Hagakure

he wanted to read her future, Junkie, dude, but she wouldn't let him, she's scared of the future so she's forceful about that

Summer Festival: (opening a stall - fortune-telling)

-"You wanna know the future at such a young age?" (Monaca)

Junko fan nr 1, doesn't care about the future

if Junko says she'll despair, then she'll do anything to meet Junko's expectations

-"I wanna tell Kaede her future."

"this optimistic attitude might backfire on you, but keep being you"

Kaede's "that's what I do best"

"from the bottom of my twisted heart"?? Junko? ig she meant Kaede has a hopeful future and she'd like to see it, but why so gay

-"Oh? Is Yasuhiro here to check out his rival?"

it's Junky now, he's mad, can't compete with her

"my shaggy friend"

he wants her to tell him his future, she asks if there's any sense to that

he tells her he wants to hear of a debt-free future, she ends up not foretelling for him

Campfire: Are you afraid of fire? It's a pillar of humanity and a destructive force of nature.

Kaito thinks he's an exception to having to fear the fire and rables about space

Chiaki makes it about fire attacks in a game. Something can bring both hope and despair depending on what perspective you look at it from

Nagito, of course he is. Takes the opportunity to mention hope, "great danger, but a powerful ally", "a small price to pay for a life filled with hope" (about a little misfortune), she tunes him out after he says hope overcomes all

My Future... (with Monokuma)

Despair, so many options for despair, no matter what, it's despair

"Maybe this is what craving death is like. Death, the ultimate thrill... Or that's what I thought"

hope and despair are inseparable

people despair because they hope so she will hope as well, for despair.

End: "Will I ever be free from despair?"

[azenta]

Why am i sick. Like, literally. I have no energy and tons of shit i want to do

[tutuandscoot]

So with the whole Valieva thing.. her particular situation is awful and all the federations involved have handled it terribly. It isn’t getting nearly enough coverage on mainstream news- they are all mentioning her but not the bigger picture here which is that this is state sponsored child abuse.

After reading this article and also there’s a great discussion in this video (starting at 16:00) It got me thinking about a moment from PYC.

So at the gala, at the end after the bows and the big group photo, Scott tells T to go wait over for the gold medalist photo while he gets Alina and Yuzu from the crowd. He gets Alina first and she skates over to Tessa and gives her a big hug and they do a cute hand swinging thing:

I never really though much of it, until now. Here we have two female skaters, in different disciplines, but still. Tessa is nearly twice her age here. It’s a lovely moment, but when you think about it, what came after and with what’s happening now (even tho it was an open secret). All I see is Tessa, at 28, at the end of her career. And Alina, just 15…… ALSO essentially at the end of her career (I know she kept going for a bit but not as far as the next olys) . We know both Tessa and Scott didn’t have it easy, T’s injuries were horrible and long lasting and it not only affected both her and Scott physically but also mentally. But they were smart. They had the right people around them, they did everything in their power to remain healthy and get back on track in a safe manner. Even when maybe those in their bubble weren’t all the way with them through tough times, they had each other.. and I especially just feel so happy for Tessa that she had Scott who truly treated her like the most precious thing in the world. Never let her feel guilty about her injuries or the fact that it set them back at times, never criticised or abused her about weight and body image, said she was beautiful just the way she was and loves her and cares about her no matter what. Obviously there is a difference between them being partners and Alina who’s a singles skater- But Tessa and Scott were always more or less looked after and looked after each other. This poor girl has no one. The abusive training environment, abusive coaches, ridiculously unhealthy habits. Just the drinking water thing- that those ‘Eteri girls’ aren’t allowed to DRINK WATER during comps and probs training as well. You see VM and they are literally always drinking water. They hug holding water bottles. They often have 2-3 bottles at once with various nutrients ready to go. It’s just horrible to think about. (I know ID is physically different to singles/pairs in that they don’t jump but there is zero proof in weight= jumps- if anything it makes them weaker).

Then there’s the moment just after:

They do a cute lil group photo and I’d seen pointed out that it’s kinda weird and funny that Scott shakes both Alina and Yuzu’s hands where as T hugs both of them. I didn’t really think much of it, until now… Again. Alina is half Scott’s age. So maybe he felt a little awkward hugging her. We know what a gentleman he is- he takes off his glove and beanie for the medal ceremony, always let’s T leave the ice ahead of him and same when they go on for warm up or to compete. He’s very respectful of his coaches and..everyone really (dont @ me with he used to be kind of a shit I’m talking about now and the beautiful soul he grew into) but he’s also a hugger. He’s very affectionate. But given the amount of time he and Tessa had been in the sport.. they had seen it all. And it was probably no secret that these girls aren’t treated well. So I wouldn’t be surprised if he felt a little uncomfortable hugging an underage girl in that situation. Again I’m not sure if that’s why he shook her hand. But it just got me thinking. When T hugged her it was a nice lil girls moment, also Alina came to Tessa and initiated the hug, but I just sense there was a bit of hesitation in him to do the same. There also the fact that Russia/ROC whatever, shouldn’t have been competing. And there’s a quote Scott gave after the team event, where basically he came straight out and said he wanted Canada to kick their arse, considering the doping thing. Completely dominate the event so it wasn’t like ROC lost coz they had someone missing coz of doping. So there could also be that, just being a bit more congenial and professional considering his views on that whole situation. He’s being no less respectful of her by shaking her hand, but I think those few things might explain the body language.

So yeh. This whole doping thing is complete BS. I had known there was a doc made about the whole thing but didn’t watch it (Icarus) till just now. This is off topic from this post, but with the whole Sochi thing.. the fact that it’s extremely likely that the figure skating was fixed (anytime you get Russia and USA in cahoots ur guaranteed corruption) and learning that was what our VM bbys were dealing with, tried to ignore it, but inevitably knew they were never competing for gold. Add onto that now knowing probably most-all Russian athletes were involved in doping at that games- that it was an entirely orchestrated plan specifically to dominate their home games. The fact that the team event was not only fixed with judging, but those skaters could’ve been/probably were doped. Canada really should have won that team event, on two levels now.. they were doubly screwed over. They should have had a team gold medal, and based on the performances by all the teams in the IE, VM should have a gold medal for that as well. It’s just awful. It’s ruining the entire Olympic moment, and ruining athletes lives.

NIA. ur thoughts about the bloomic LI's 🤲🤲

yeaass got the good endings 4 for 4 first try like god i am so good at gaming😍😘‼️

spoiler warning ofc!! stated fave to least fave but they Barely switch around. (btw i did owl > xyx > quest > toasty)

voice: toasty, owl, xyx, quest (love all the va's i think they did quite a good job the calls were vry cute <3)

toasty had like, the most natural laughs and that was one of the things i Rlly rlly zoned in on. the first time he laughed i actually said oh my god

quest has a nice voice. smooth... smth abt the ?intonation? threw me off a little?? him and owl were a little Anime Protag to me... nothing's Wrong w it !! just not my favourite cup of coffee (srry i don't like tea)

xyx picking love as the pet name was gonna make me throw my mouse at the wall. that's all i can say. idk australian accents throw me off SORRYEBDH all i think of are felix/bang chan and 5sos which is problematic for my health /hj (i was 11 as a 5sos fan ok. not again...)

story: toasty/owl, quest, xyx

got to love that true ending flavour. sorry this might also be toasty favoritism but i rlly do think it was interesting. blooming panini was a highlight

Genuinely fucking Gasped when owl's whole thing happened. my hand was over my mouth and everything. but i Empathize and his call after was sooo.. nguh. he had some of my fave calls tbh!! i think they could have added some warnings for others tho...?

was a little shocked to see the ex for quest too like wow. that icon too. can't believe i turned into a discord kitten HELPRHEJ and like :(( being called a monster??? that hurt Me :/

Also empathize w xyx...i get the funny friend thing and not wanting to do something :/ i'm vry lucky to have such good friends and they're unlucky w me always talking /hj but man . that could've been me in another life. also i Do love him and cat 😚

who i'd text irl (one on one): owl/toasty, xyx, quest

owl's got the balance of texting how me and my friends do and also me not having to be worried of sounding awkward. sorry that is not the other characters' fault but i'm comparing them to ppl i have actually texted. whew

BUT toasty + xyx gc is the best thing ever. i know i'd make a fool of myself easily but witnessing it is fun

i'd rather text toasty one on one tho . love xyx i am just not charismatic/funny . i'm sure he'd like how easily flustered/awkward i get but it'd also probably get old fast and i feel bad lolol

quest. i think if i went "omhogfi litelrauj cnats ee myscfrne im ggoncry hydo allmyfaov irt cjarates due" i'd feel the worst for him. very lovely but he doesn't need to see me incoherently sobbing over manga 😔 let me be the best for u

overall + random thoughts: toasty, owl, quest/xyx

i love !!! all their development !!! i think it was done super well and everything in each of their routes tied together...and like they were all so different u know?

the texting felt rlly natural too. i think one thing that'd get to me for like, mysmes was my text choices and stuff . ofc there were personally unnatural moments but that's a given LOL

OWL'S EPILOGUE PHOTO. there's a video on my ig spam bc i wanted to record it unblurring as my first ending photo,, the noise and shocked laugh i let out. hooo my god

when xyx was like let's do tongue twisters / no wrong answer just dumb ones or smth . as someone with anxiety and rejection sensitivity i would have an anxiety attack and die. BUT as a GC Friend he'd be very fun his sense of humor is pretty similar to mine i think...

when societyboy showed up and quest brought me to the other channel and he said "i'd love to angel" i was done. i was gone. /pos quest had such cute lines i'm devastated. like yeah spoil me hahahhahah please. [gets discord kitten'd] HELDPFJ

not kidding about toasty and xyx being the best thing ever. when they said "onion aren't you comp sci / yeah drop out" i giggled. that's so me

is it bad i was saying x-y-x in my head until i heard toasty say xyx. HELP

my godddd toasty. when he gets back in the server and says ur name 3 times i was kicking my feet. when he said i was so fucking worried fuck this. call? i was crying. WHEN GE SAID I love you. a lot. text me in the morning? I WAS PUNCHIGN THEA IR I EAS SILENTLY SCREAMING INTO MY PILLOW

the first thing i said when i first saw him btw. i could probably make a whole post just for how i relate to him and owl . anyway

who would i date fr?! evidently toasty or owl . not sure which one ,, probably toasty but i think they both fit the general criteria for who i like :0

[bunkernine]

Unpopular opinion: Most of the HoO characters are done dirty in ToA.

i dislike when people say "unpopular opinion" and then proceeds to say a popular opinion. but idk, let's get into it:

percy & annabeth: they weren't really in toa, and this is excellent. annabeth wouldn't make much sense, and she's involved with magnus at the same timeline, which was one of the few things riordan kept together. percy, as i mentioned earlier, was left perfectly in tHO. hearing they go on a road trip cause fuck that, is exactly what people wanted of percy and annie- we know they're high school graduates and have college plans which is something neither of them really thought they would survive to do. they ended at a perfect spot. so, basically, no, percy and anne's were not done dirty

jason, piper, leo: 😐 i find it incredibly strange that jason and piper's arcs neared completion in a series that was not their own, and leo's was low-key hopeless by mid-moa anyway. as for jason's death... eh. it seems like someone from the lost trio was supposed to die anyway, at first jason or leo, and then it moved to jason or piper, and jason's decision to take it upon himself makes sense (tho that's for another post). piper and leo not going to his funeral however, is super fucking wack, and does NOT make sense. leo shouldn't have stayed at waystation, and piper's moment with shel, feels cheap and to cover up the reyna discussion earlier. it's sad too, because piper figuring out her sexuality fits perfectly into her arc, but it seems like riordan accidentally wrote a comp-het character and finds it a good place to do damage control. (regardless, gay piper 😌💕).... i can talk about these three all day, so that's really for another post, but yeah, they were done dirty lol

reyna & nico: hm. both of them played vital roles in lester's development and learned a little more about themselves, so no, i don't think they were done dirty. considering that neither started out as main characters and only became so because of popularity, the fact that they even had such major roles is insane. they fleshed out into being a bit more that the characters they were introduced as, and it's great. kudos for them 💞

frank & hazel: ... lol. they were kind of just... there? and it's so fucking weird cause the same thing happened in hoo, where these two did something really cool, and then they're just there for a bit and then oh no the story is over. ehhhhhhh. I mean, when it comes to toa and the seven, the seven aren't really memorable (except jason's death and ig biper now) so this is expected but like, lol. and it's like funny too cause camp jupiter is a MESS and good for hazel being praetor but she also should definitely not be praetor at all. i forgot where this was going but lol, they got fucked ig

but you really do have to accept the fact that of course they were fucked over, toa was never about them!!!! toa is it's on series, and the seven shouldn't have been so intertwined in the first place. this layer of merging only really works that much if hoo and pjo had been so involved like that too, except it wasn't! so the connection here makes it feel like toa is some extension of hoo with a new narrator. but this isn't true!!! it's its own story and quote frankly, it's not about the seven all the time. my irritation comes from the fact that the hoo characters should've had their stories satisfyingly ended in BoO instead of continuing arcs into ToA

SHIP WARS:

the most popular jimin ships are jimark, liljun, and lilsung (yes i changed a few of the ship names AND WHAT ABOUT IT) and today we are here to explain why they’re shipped

lmk who you ship!! tbh idek what the endgame will be so i wanna hear yalls thoughts!! or mayb i do know 👁👁

JIMARK/MARKLY/TIGERLILY:

okay theyve really been breathing lately

for the longest time they had a sibling seeming type thing?? well

they were still popular, mayb just not romantically

then somewhere before resonance to now ..

well tbh retro future sparked a lot. of. interest in the ship

prior to that, of course lily was crying happy that mark was coming back and they were a fixed unit

and then in group lives after reload she was always sitting pretty close to him, leaning on him, smiling at him, looking at him with starry eyes

and mark always looked at her while he was talking, laughed a lot when she was funny, etc

but when resonance happened it was CRAZY

cuz y’all know the ~scenes~ with those two

and the behind the scenes video

and their live together

yeah all of moments there.. and they’re not kids anymore

they also had a win for retro future and when they did the encore stage and they were singing she kinda stared at him and bit her lip aND FORGOT TO START HER LINE

she was laughed at by markhyuck

they have litte subtle things they do

poking each other is a frequent thing

like on the small of their back

she gives him back hugs a lot

he’s always touching her head???

not even her face but her head

even tho mark a baby lion theyre called tigerlily because of mark’s tiger he raised for the regular mv

recently lily had a series of photos and videos of she and mark on her instagram story

1.) low qual selca in the dream dorm(?)

2.) two pics of her taken by mark

3.) selcas of them holding wine glasses with hyuck photobombing

4.) photo of mark making a grossed out face after trying the wine

5.) lil video of them saying “apple juice” in english and laughing

OKAY SO WHEN MARK HAD TO COOK THE EGGS

lily was by his side since the first one, giving him advice

shushing the others when they were mean/distracting

rested her chin on his shoulder when he was waiting for the eggs to be done

mark said several times that the best egg should go to lily

lily, in english: if you get this, you can get a date and gordon ramsey won’t tell her to break up with you

anyway yeah they’re VERY POPULAR

LILJUN/JIMINJUN:

y’all been seeing some stuff about them recently 👁👁

czennies DEF notice their chemistry and they’ve been a popular ship since forever

tiny duo but she makes renjun look taller and it’s obvious when they hug

lily hugs on him a lot and he just chills because he’s so used to it

has defended her when the others were going to attack her even tho she don’t need it

they’ve been in the background of SO MANY videos just being adorable together

there’s comps of them staring at each other’s lips omg

their city of stars cover is iconic in ncity

calls her jimin-ah in like. the most affection voice

she gets cold a lot and when she does he always gives her his jacket or pulls her close

in those vids where they’re recording songs lily is almost always in the room with him, sitting with her chin on her knees and looking all sleepy but smiling at his voice

that time she fell asleep on renjun when they were filming once and jaemin took photos of it and renjun was grinning SO HARD and lily was so peaceful looking

renjun also REFUSED to move because he didn’t wanna wake her

czennies noticed that she winks at him from across the room a lot

if they’re doing a dance practice or summ, lily usually starts grinning just by making eye contact with him

iconic lives especially where they sing together

they’re usually such a peaceful lives too and lily is half asleep a lot

so czennies gathered that she clings to him when she’s sleepy

which is. correct

renjun was smiling at his phone during a live with a few of the others and he said it was because lily was texting him

he always laughs when she’s funny

and she wears the moomin shirt he got her a lot

for a lot of the photos of her she credits him as photographer

“renjun and lily are a popular couple” - jaemin

cue them both rolling their eyes and then smiling at each other

they’ve had a lot of dating rumors but not to the point where sm has to make a statement about it

LILSUNG/JIJIM:

here we go

jisung had a crush on lily since her debut wbk

like it’s never been confirmed but the others have kinda joked around it?? and it was just obvious

sharing mics and letting the other sing their line

he piggybacked her at the dream show and you could hear her do a happy little laugh in her mic

a few times they’ve showed up to award shows with their arms linked

like he escorts her

jisung is liek. the more Confident of the two SURPRISINGLY

she isn’t a shy person but he makes her shy sometimes. not often. but sometimes

usually she just chilling and so is he

they covered rewrite the stars and it was so beautiful and romantic and the dancing >>>

their voices go very well together js

lily being oblivious to jisung’s crush is like. a funny joke in ncity

until lik. 2019 when she became More Aware

they were filmed hugging once and lily was on her tiptoes and jisung looked shy and lanky and awkward

they link arms a lot and when jisung is sitting she leans on his head. like her chin on the top of his head and her arms around the rest

“lily acts nervous around jisung sometimes” - hyuck

starry eyed glances when the other isn’t looking

she likes to pretend to punch him and fight him a lot while he’s just smiling and laughing at her

“i’m older than you. respect your elders” - lily

him spinning her around

her doing hearts at him

“she’s the real maknae, too cute” - jisung, who then realizes what he said and looks like he wants to slam his head into the wall

she takes the cutest photos of him

so much blushing

[syncogon]

sad only 480p version this time, and delayed. oh well, temptation too strong, and clips on the weibo looked promising, so let’s go

mjy sighhh i guess he’s just dumb not malicious but man

“the truth isn’t important” glasses shing. oh wow that hair swish tho that was like unnecessarily well animated hahaha

iiiii just want jhx to tell off yy!! i think that’d be great, what a faceslap! also wtf is this thing? iron supplements?? a spray? icy-hot? 铁打损伤喷雾?? god i spent like five minutes trying to mouse-trace those characters and i still don’t know if this is supposed to be significant or if it’s just significant that jhx caught yy doing shady shit 

anyway given music / context it seems jhx is annoyed at what yy is doing? so yay friggin finally. “our classes aren’t at nanhua” nice 

“xu-da” vs “xu-ge” hmm. anyway jhx don’t fall for the lies. jhx is like sx, annoying and chuuni but probably isn’t as obnoxiously awful as he first appears... probably.... maybe. 

goddd sucks that the full version of this op is kinda weird, because i LOVE this op so much like holy crap. jiyi bei yingfu huanxing.... 

man now im like stressed about the yf at the airport scene. trailer showed an airport. what’s gonna happennn

this exchange about dd feels so weird like it sounds like ctg is trying to explain they’re not in any pre-relationship or smth but maggie is like “i don’t mind” in a way that makes it sound like she wouldn’t mind if they’re together? what??? but whatever

ok i really enjoy this cr/yf dynamic. like i feel like it’s a bit ooc and yf as portrayed here is maybe too far on the acquiescence but also it’s really funny and sparks joy for me so i’ll buy it. i’m happy to see like established relationship stuff i think bc i generally don’t in the stuff i watch. speaking of which i’m super glad that they didn’t make the awful dumb move of trying to insert like Another wack love triangle drama dynamic thing in this like the fans want yecong and tianmai!!

wowwww it’s so nice how supportive cr is being tho like i love to see it!

handholding!! soft!! nice inversion of the earlier part where cr is bandaging his fingers. but like -

WHY DOES SHE HAVE MARKS/CALLUSES ON HER THUMB AND NOT HER PINKY??? like ok i have not played ukelele but i sure have my own share of stringed instrument finger calluses and you don’t?? press on the string with your thumb???

still, they’re trying, it’s a cute detail, i appreciate it. i liked that one wwgk review i watched yesterday that pointed out s1 was like a coming of age story disguised as a music story, whereas s2 is like a real music story.... 

wait this is incredibly cute wtf. oh my god. 

YF SIGHED/FACEPALMED AT THAT? COME ON!! WTF THAT’S SO RUDE? THAT WAS ACTUALLY LIKE PRETTY GOOD?? AND SHE DID THIS JUST FOR YOU? like maybe not performance ready but bro she’s learned for two days!! also holy shit the strumming animation is really good for smth like this im impressed! that reminds me of the like actually legit violin animation they showed in the trailer yo im so ready 

like i totally understand the frustration (damn, maggie’s face... 3 free performances? really?) but also i feel SO BAD FOR CR HERE this is so awkward oh my godddd at least ctg like tries to apologize to her (and cr’s reaction to this whole thing is also v solid, good for her) but still like damn 

aww ahh man im glad maggie still like! supports encourages cr here! that’s also char dev being able to like get past her own complicated emotions at least for this sort of gesture 

awwww i also like seeing maggie’s coping, the happiness philosophy i always thought that was super interesting. she’s a great char! and i think running is good

animators animate a girl running normally challenge

oh nice you have to walk a bit after sprinting, good

the train track scenes are so pretty wahhh 

does... does the track just end there? what

the ~significance~ of maggie now sharing this piece of her that used to be a yf thing, with ctg 

also excellent bgm - oh omg it’s og soul link remix!!! 

“i don’t want you to go” 

MY GOD HE’S FINALLY MAKING A REAL MOVE. and one based in real friendship. GOD FUCKING FINALLY CTG AAAAAA she’s cryyying man this exchange is also pretty cute ngl 

i can’t believe they figured this out a full 4 episodes before the finale 

this is so pretty here wahhhhhh i wanna ss the whole thing in 1080p 

awhhhhhh

they never released pink twilight shanghai!! i want this ver!!! 

aww yayyy open still cheering her on - YF BE NICE TO YOUR GF COME ON

haha this is like reverse of cr tutoring him - WAIT YEAH YF YOU WERE A SHITTY ASS STUDENT COMPARED TO HER BE EXTRA NICE 

also remixed dream i dig it! sounds like new lyrics? 

julliard hahahaha

dong dong goddess

HAHAHA did dd just steal ctg’s fries

ctg: expressing some deep thoughts

me: just watching dd

“forever confident, forever happy” 

wait sooooooo are they a thing now or what did that count as a confession

“and qing’er is finally here” WHAT’S THE TEAAAAA WE STILL DON’T REALLY KNOW

“im a guitarist this is fine” YOU GO DD I LOVE YOU 

BEACH EPISODE BEACH EPISODE BEACH EPISODE 

omg oyzq. you’d think they were trying to extort a confession from him. what the hell is this instrument he said what is a xiao 箫. A WOODEN FLUTE? YOOO THAT’S COOL my god PLEASE let us get some kickass trad/modern fusion music im so ready 

“i trust ouyang” ahhh double char surnames are cool

HAHAHAHAHHAAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA WHAT THE FUCK

“because i’m about to have surgery on my knee” REALLY? REALLY? IS THIS REALLY HOW YOU’RE GOING TO JUSTIFY ALL THIS? FOLKS I AM LOSING MY SHIT I HAVEN’T LAUGHED OUT LOUD LIKE THIS IN SO LONG

ok this is interesting tho he’s not a dick for the hell of it it’s out of desperation or smth. but like half a year, oh no, what a horror. (i’m fresh out of hb feels ok you shaddap // tho i can also imagine the knife, like in lotus bloom, where they didn’t think szp’s injury was permanent). tho i do also like the “then we’ll be seniors we won’t have time to perform” but also that’s just a reminder that all of these ppl are like frigging 16 year olds and i still cannot take this seriously

i like “i didn’t expect, that i couldn’t give you the confidence to win”. god im so glad this confrontation is happening. man this feels like a wrap up already are they really spending all 3 last episodes on the competition? what’s the story gonna be? 

feel like he’d be less ugly with hairstyle that looked more consistently like this. anyway sucks that both of them are so ugly otherwise there’s some nice sun/moon (+stars?) imagery you can get going here

GROUP CHAT GROUP CHAT GROUP CHAT 

pretty! i wanna save this hq

it’s this bgm!!! godd i just want this track so bad

an empty beach?? in china near shanghai??? 

anyway ahhh it’s the iconic beach shot! i like how the promo ver cuts out dd lmfao

wow nine episodes in and cookie finally gets a character moment??? cookieeeeeeee i missed you

ok i can’t ship them he calls her shifu but also THIS IS SUCH A CUTE FRIENDSHIP calling every day 10 minutes?? wow!! i love dongdong and i love cookie. also this hits different in covid times “no one says that we can’t be friends because of distance” 

oh i guess they are pushing this as a ship. meh.

wahhhhh. need this hq then i have more propic material. 

HE HAS COVID 

ah lang is VIBING oh to be the ah lang of my own life. parasurfing. walking into poles. 

wow this is so modern! the red bag thing! wow i do love this show flexing the modern-ness 

this is the mercedes benz arena im SURE of it ahhhh holy crap this crowd. oh to be in a crowd without mask

IT’S THIS DUDE AGAIN like the trailer spoiled this but if i found out this right here right now i would’ve lost my shit my god hahhaah

Episode 5 - “The clowns are in full force this season” - Jaiden

The clowns are in full force this season. First of all that tribal council was a load of fucking shit lmfao, I could not believe the sob stories Nik and Joey were pulling out to try and stay another day in this fucking org... it is final 17 it's not that serious. I will say that I immediately regretted the decision to vote for Joey but now I'm realizing how beneficial it might've been after all, like.. now people don't see that Joey and I are as closely aligned as we are and it definitely shows Kailyn that not only can I be loyal, but also that I had an accurate read on the events of this tribe. Interestingly enough, Kailyn did NOT believe me when I told her we didn't have the votes to keep Nik without drawing rocks. As soon as the tie came in I acted all mad and said "I'm not drawing rocks for this, I'm flipping". ...and Kailyn still had the nerve to ask "wait did you flip?" after it was all said and done! The funny thing is, Ben also assumed Kailyn flipped and immediately DMed me saying "So I assume Kailyn flipped go figure" or something to that extent. LOVES IT! Maybe no one thinks I'm a flip-flopper after all. Rachael being on this tribe already bugs me because I think she's going to get along with just about everybody and we should've taken a shot at her when we had a chance. It's become evident that I need to start playing the chips game a lot more than I have been because those little buggers are going to become more and more important as time goes along. I think Rachael is fucking full of it when she says there was nothing on Exile for her. She either has an idol and is lying about it, or she's got some sort of advantage to help her out and I'm not here for it. I did eventually come clean to Rachael about the whole DeNara vote thing, where I whipped around and pretended to be voting for Ben afterwards, but I don't think it has a strong impact on our relationship. She gives me such an uneasy vibe and I don't want her around much longer... I kind of hate this tribe I got swapped onto because everybody here feels like legitimate threats to win this game except I guess myself right now. And Xavier. He doesn't really provide much to the game yet, but I bet he will surprise us all along the way. Agenda for this round... make sure we win immunity. But if we don't.. sorry Rachael, you're going to just have to see your buddy Nik a lot sooner than you would've liked. Ciao!

Survived another Tribal!

Super sad to see Nik voted out but also insanely glad to see Joey survived. It would be heartbreaking to see him voted out first after the swap. Livingston and I are sharing all the chips we have and when we spin the wheel we’re transferring chips so if we land on a bankrupt spot we don’t lose the 28 chips we have so far. If we win this next immunity challenge, we may have enough chips to purchase the super idol that’s on sale for 48 chips. (If we both bid two chips on the challenge and then spin the wheel and get some chips.) otherwise, if someone purchases it before we do, we may end up buying some other useful items. Now it’s a selfie scavenger hunt which I hate, but that’s alright. Gonna give it my all and hope to take home the win. 

I just had a moment of clarity. The other tribe are full of OG Palazzo. If they stick together, we're screwed. We should win this next one, see how their vote goes, and change our plans accordingly.

So my lazy ass hasent done any of these yet. So let me catch y’all up. So when my original trive first went to tribal I kinda thought I was fucked cus like I barely talked to ppl. Nik and Rachel were my closest allies (Rachael being my final 2). So quickly they told me denara wanted my ass out. Fucking mistake. So I got my sheep in order and went to work. I pulled some bs outta my ass and was like yo we got a swap coming up and denara is too fucking social she’s gonna flip on your asses. The more I said it the more it made sense to me lol. That fucking tribal was AIDSSS. I’m literally sitting there thinking I was getting booted, but my fucming savior Jaiden came up clutch. We sent that bitch packing. So me and Rachael have had a strat this game to send each other our coins before spinning the wheel to avoid going bankrupt. Since I’m a fucking gambling addict I’m always betting on the comps and spinning that wheel till I’m stacked on coins. So we hit a swap and I actually started talking to people. John is pretty chill and Xavier is kinda weird ngl. When it came time to vote nobody wanted to bring anything up to me. I had to hear from kaitlyn that nik was sadly the vote. So I quickly went to work. I felt the least connected to Joey so I went after his bitch ass. Originally, I didn’t wanna stick with my tribe but like they kinda forced us into that by keeping us in the dark. Everytime I’d ask Xavier his thoughts he’d just say some weird ass response and avoid my question lol. So like I kinda expected a tie vote and tbh I wanted rocks. We get to tribal it was a tie, and I’m fucking trying my best to get Xavier to flip cus he just seems like the dumbest person there. He’s like we can take nik out now then Joey next. LIKE FUCK NO. He wanted to create an all noobies alliance with idek. But I agreed cus fuck it. So sadly nik went home cus jaiden flipped :/ BUT me and Rachael got all his chips!! Now I’m fucking vibing with 10, and Rachael had got 8. Tbh we wanna save up for an idol, but with the shop at 20% and another 4-4 vote looming, I’d be down to snag an extra vote. I gotta peep all these new prices tho. I do hope we win this comp cus I’m obviously betting and I’m too lazy to fucking deal with another tribal. Well anyways peace out see y’all later. 

My plan continues to just be working on relationships and hopefully winning the challenges. Either way, I've participated one of the most on the team so I'm hoping if we do lose, I won't become the target. I know I have a strong relationship with Kevin, which is 1/4 of the tribe. I'm also working on my relationships with Keegan, Pat, and Livingston. I kind of hope the other team targets Rachael, just because I wasn't a huge fan the last time I had to deal with her. I also want John and Xavier to survive because I know I have solid relationships with them. We're at day 14 and I've already put so much work to evolve my game, I want to go from worst to first - I want to do all the things I couldn't do when I was 16. But I have to keep thinking three steps ahead. So if we lose, my target is Mo. Nobody from OG Pink has been voted out yet - but because they have majority on this tribe there really isn't much I can do yet, but Mo hasn't contributed to the challenge. They're also very awkward, so I think I'd be able to swing it. If I keep working on my relationships, working hard in challenges and showing myself as a good ally - I have a chance to make it deep in this game. For now - let's hope we win the challenge so I can relax a little bit more. Day 15 is the farthest I've ever made it so if we do end up winning I've completed my third goal. (The first two being going a tribal without getting a vote, and leading a blindside.) My other four goals - getting an advantage, making merge, winning individual immunity, and winning this game. Get your checklist out, cause I'm coming.

Keegs and I have 28 chips between us then Okay so I told Keegan this, and I could be wrong, but I feel as if the numbers in the vault seem fairly good and that leads me to believe that nothing has been bought yet. If anyone else gotten in there, they are likely saving up for the Super Idol. Keegan and I will be saving up for it but if it ends up being gone, we'll at least have enough chips to pick up some other stuff. Keegan to me: "Also, I just thought of something. Since it’s possible to go Bankrupt from the wheel, would it be a good idea for us to give most/all chips to each other before we spin the wheel? That way if we do land on a bad spot, we’re only losing like 1 chip instead of the 10-20?" This gonna be our wheel strat moving forward

...five seconds later

Jake came to me wanting to work together. Of course, there is no real way to turn such things down so I let Keegs know and then I told him I would be down for that. I am not tryna do some Final 2 or whatever. For now it is just a "I have your back if you have mine" type thing. Jake also went to Keegan so Jake better not fuck up and be overly messy because I have enjoyed my convos w him LMAO - Okay so update on that: he has pitched a 3 of me, him and Keegan. This is good for us so we are going with it but my loyalties are to Keegan before Jake and I think Keegan feels the same way. We are being hesitant just in case Jake has also pitched similar things to other people. If we go to tribal, ideally we keep Jake safe but if he's being like this with everyone then maybe he's the one to go. I like Jake so I would really make rather it be the former.

So nervous about this challenge! We went all in! I even danced Blackpink. My gosh we have to win this.

fuck

38 points in SSH is a terrible score, I’m upset at my poor performance, but now that I just acquired the Legacy Advantage, it makes my game so much more interesting to say the least. I have 11 chips, I could’ve bought an idol, but given my luck, I’d rather not risk all my chips and lose them on a bankrupt.

this is so lame, im not super worried about getting voted out but still i just like the serene environment that comes with immunity, the chaos is fun too but like ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh im tired 

Well... we lost the challenge. And I am not surprised in the slightest. This was a very very poor showing from this tribe. Honestly, I wouldn’t mind voting out Jeff right now. He really flopped the challenge. But it seems like the OG Palazzo group is wanting to stick together and vote out one of Jake, Mo or Kevin. Ideally, Kevin would be the one to go. I’ve barely talked with him, and with his recent win in Travellers survivor, he’s certainly capable of playing a strong game. That’s someone I’d like out sooner rather than later. Andrew has suggested Jake. Which I definitely don’t want. Jake, Livingston and myself have a sort of three person thing going on. As long as Jake is casting his net over the entire tribe, I want to continue working with him. Mo is in a weird spot. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ At the end of the day though, I don’t really care who it is, as long as it ain’t me.

SO HAPPY TO HAVE FINALLY WON! Steph and I have enough chips either for an IDOL or two of other advantages. I would rather have two others, because there is an idol nullifier out there. And two advantages are better than one. I am going to be watching the tribal of Bellagio. I want to see if the OG Bellagio are a solid 5.

Ahhhh first time going to tribal. I’m really nervous. Not bec I think I’m in danger but more for long term... what to do?

girl... im so sick and tired of the people in this game keeping around inactive players because they know them from other games. SERIOUSLY, listen ma'am if my good friend is inactive, I know when someones dead weight. I get rid of them. They'll understand, and if they don't then thats a manipulative dumbass because who gets mad for being eliminated by a friend when they were inactive. it was originally gonna be me but ive been fucking pushing for kevin to go cus he doesnt do shit. DeNara give me strength.

Mo at one point was throwing my name out, which is awful. Apparently he’s not anymore. I think he’s voting for Kevin? Let’s hope so. I don’t want to be out of this game yet.

Currently holding that Legacy Advantage gives me much more access to information

dawn!! hiiii 15, 35, 98 :)

helloooo lasya!! thanks for playing w me bby 💕

15. do you play an instrument?

i used to!!! i played the piano until 3/4 years ago but i stopped after i moved back to my dad's house :( i miss it So Much tho :(( i can barely remember how to play it shdhjsje i only know für elise now but i definitely want to go back to it once im done with uni applications!

35. what makes you happy?

oh so many things! i have to say my lil sister again just because she's my biggest source of happiness, but also 2gether makes me extremely happy (i was re-watching some breaks today and man im soooo ready to see all my babies again!!!!!), listening to Good Music can always lift up my mood too! watching my fave shows, bfu/bfwi vids, random language facts videos or vine comps make me sups sups happy whenever i need that serotonin production up and running

98. how's your day/night going?

my day was fine, i spent most of it studying but i also talked A Lot with my ex girlfriend which was really nice!! we haven't had a long conversation like this for so long and you know those people who when you talk to, you feel like home? yeah.... she gives me that comfy feeling even after all the things we went thru and a pretty rough breakup back in 2018 because, thankfully, after all the time needed to heal from that, we reached out to each other and re-established that great friendship we had!!!!!! it was funny because we were reminiscing some moments we spent together and she pointed out me trying to help her with english around 2017/2018 (and i did Not have the knowledge i have now so it was pretty bad jssjdnkejr) so she asked me to talk in english with her again to test her skills and....... god it was just like the old times (but this time i knew what i was talking about and she wasn't so clueless lmao) and the nostalgia feeling hit me Hard but it was so good to just enjoy these little dumb things with her again. besides that, after dinner, my mom took out her guitar and me and my parents sat down in the living room to sing for my sister!!!!

sweetheart asks!

New vid rambly thoughts

I have to say the funniest part of the name reveal is everyone (myself included) trying desperatly to fit remus into their Aus. Equally as funny is Remy (sleep) becoming either a version of remus that turned good or people trying to rename him. Idk if I'll ever put remus in a fic but I'm gonna make remys middle name be Remy cause cool people go by their middle name till a garbage man makes them disown the name entirely.

Honestly tho I love all you creators who are doing your best and I'm sorry the scary leaf man set fire to parts of your intricate stories. You're doing great sweetie and if you wanna keep him out fricken do it.

Honestly I deal with intrusive thoughts on the reg and as nasty as remus is I low key love him. Like he's basically a cryptid doing a cartoon villian tiptoe around the mind tapping his nails on things like an asmr YouTuber as he comps ominously on deorderant. Like I get and sympathize with those who can't deal with him in fics. I know middle school me would not be able to deal. However I feel like he could work as a good cutaway gag for some fics were he's just being slightly concerning and just makin vaguely silly alibiet disturbing imagery. Pats making breakfast and he's in the upper cabinet filling the nails on the dismembered hand bottles of nail polish at the ready for him to do the hand's nails.

Also Roman!!!!!! My sweet boy!!! God some one give him a hug he was so left out of the vid that's gotta sting his ego. Like I get why he was MIA but first the callback now this.

Like I think it's fair to say that his arc that's been building for the last few episodes is really kicking into overdrive. The duke being brought to forefront implies that maybe Roman has in a way had to fight him off for awhile. Maybe he's turned some of his really grotesque ideas into better more productive concepts or images. (Also the dicotamy of prince vs duke is v good. In royal structors dukes are under the royal bloodline and have less overall power than a king in power. However dukes can often have more short-term power than a prince. In that over their smaller sections they get more say untill a crowned prince arrives to dictate other wise)

Also him comparing the duke to a fun house mirror where you see all you'd hate to be has some interesting implications.

So I don't think this is really a theory I think it's obvious but Deciet is the other side of Pattons coin. The side of morality that you don't wanna think about. And for the longest time I kinda assumed Virgil as anxiety was Romans opposite. Mainly because I link my anxiety with alot of my creativity good and bad. But since remus is Romans bro I think it's fair that maybe all of them had a sort of split at somepoint where their functions got too complicated and the mantle of negativity needed a specific side to hold it up. Patton and Deciet again are a good example of this maybe at some point Thomas needed to lie and this literally tore Patton up making the need for a distance from his very strict morality code and the idea that sometimes you need to lie.

But that really leaves logan and I think Virgil as anxiety might be his dark side. Which as a prinxiety shipper with a love for opposites attracting and rivals to friends to lovers with a forbidden lover angle eats away at my shipping fantasy. But maybe he's Logan's darkside. Unless they can have multiple which would make my anaology of coins moot (maybe they're like dice then??)

But I can't remember were I saw this but ages ago a post were some one said that anxiety is in it's own right an ignorance of logic/ and extreme perversion of logic.

And as much as I like that theory I did check over the older sandy sides to make sure I was remembering things correctly and it has caused a few bumps for this idea.

(Also seeing Thomas go from "ah the kitchen is like a friend I awkwardly ignore" to "look at how yummy hello fresh is" is the biggest growth of all)

Roman knew about remus and I'm pretty sure Patton knew about Deciet. And they were both aware of how they affected their jobs. And while logan knew of Virgil is seemed to be more of a passing knowledge and all three of them really had that sort of middle ground acquaintance. And anxiety is over heightened fear and can pervert all three of their main functions. (You can do things against your moral code to sedate the anxiety. You can be too anxious to create or be bold but anxiety can also be 'good for both)

Even in anxiety vs logic it didn't have the same feel as the other vs we've had as of late

Deciet attacks them all through Patton trying to muddy his name and function. He also attacks Patton specifically using the others. In the court episode while he used Roman and ended up hurting him that felt more like a by product. The main function of the case seemed to be dismantling the ideas patton as morality had instilled that Thomas was solely good. The purpose appeared to be even with use of the others make Patton fall first and the rest will follow. ( tho I personally still think he's not evil it is important to note that he has a point to make even if he's going about it wrong)

Virgil however doesn't seem to have an end goal. He's moment to moment, his goal is always changing and everytime he's attacked the others it's always been superficial and easy to move past Patton was a focus on how childish he is, Logan's too schedule strict and stresses him out. Roman's too out their and eager to put himself in a spotlight. His gripes with them aren't as organized as Deciets.

The duke also follows a similar pattern he took out Roman and in a way attempted to usurp his role. The reaction he got from Virgil and Patton again felt like a byproduct his goal seemed to be "take control of the creativity role and attack Roman to do so" heck he literally bashes him over the head to do so. (Intrusive thoughts can not be delicate they just bash their way in and ask questions later)

Not to mention whenever Virgil talks about the other sides it's "Deciet's friends" or "The others" always plural. So Virgil might just be an all encompassing opposition he's stumped them all were as the duke and Deciet while causing overall issues seem to mainly target one over them all.

Also like whoever had that theory that Virgil was a spy for Deciet and that's why he's always always slightly off with his impersonations because Virgil very quickly decided he didn't wanna do that.

I have more thoughts and I wish for the life of me I remember the original peeps that had the ideas I mentioned but any longer and my thumbs will give up. Also sorry if this is messy I just had to splat my ideas here and run ta ta for now I might add more later.

Ep. 2: “I’m Trying To Lay Low” - Jake

JENNET

plan worked fabulously purrrrrrrrr

(a little later)

maybe its me being paranoid but why are jake,jones, and lindsay always the last three to leave calls............ when i have a f2 with all of em....

JESSICA

Song of the day is ELVIS by AOA. My favourite workout bop. Silver got voted out! So sad, I wanted to play with him. But also, kinda cool! This is the only game I have played where I truly didn't know anyone (except my very first ORG). What an experience. I know last confessional I said Sam and Shane were both kinda on the fence for me in terms of if I wanted to maybe work with them or not. An update: I think I want to work with both! Both of them, unprompted, told me they wanted to work with me if we lost immunity, and I have actually been getting along well with both of them I feel now that our conversations are moving past the sort of awkward beginning stages. I still like Sammy even though I probably should talk to him more oops... and Daisy/Lovelis/Ethan are also still in my good books. I kind of keep forgetting Pete and Cloud are on this tribe but when I remember, I am happy they are here. That being said, I think Cloud or Madison will be the first to go if we lose. Cloud is very inactive. Madison is too but she was at least on the call tonight. It might come down to how immunity goes. I want to participate because it will bond us as a team. That way even if we lose, I was a part of the team effort and won't stand out as someone who people don't know or want to work with. Also while I personally want Cloud or Madison out as I know them the least, I am not going to push it. I'll let somebody else throw out a name and as long as that name isn't Jessica then I will consider it. I sort of chilled today with the social game and only messaged people as they messaged me. The vibe of this team is very relaxed from what I can tell and I didn't want to overdo it with conversations and come across as too much. Tomorrow, my goal is to talk to every single person for at least 1 (one) whole real conversation. I might have to start using my good ol' tactic of sending people random youtube links and saying "what do you think of this" to get something going.... Honestly nothing starts a conversation like David Hasselhoff and his cinematic masterpieces that we call music videos. I hope the other tribe is full of problems so that when we eventually swap, I have a very easy time in this game.

LINDSAY

no recording tonight because i have a headache:( anyways i'm apparently not in as good of a position in the tribe as I was hoping. got left out of a six person group chat bc I was associated w Silver and people were nervous abt this vote w me. Jake luckily looped me in but I'm kind of bummed out people didn't trust me enough to let me in on this. I know it's probably just cuz Silver and I had been getting along alright the past two days but that means I'm in kind of a yucky position in the tribe that is starting to gear me up to a S6 type deal from survivor umich and I'm not fuckin' vibin. I'm gonna try to reach out (Nash appears to be ignoring me currently tho so lol) and try to fix that. I still want to work tight w Jones and Jake but I don't want them to be my only options. I need some more connections than that. ALSO WHEN SILVER DID THE THING MY HEART STOPPED LOL SO THAT MIGHT BE WHY IM BEING IGNORED also "you kept laughing at silver's jokes" was a comment someone leveled at me today and i couldn't find a good way to level and say i laugh at everything because that's how my brain is trained to react to everything. monkey brain cannot comprehend emotions so i laugh everything off. anyways i guess this is my clue i've got to step up. i mean, it's fine if i'm under the radar some because it's not merge yet so like it's fine, but i'm... worried. if nothing else we're even tho bc the galaghers got revealed as well as the six person alliance so we're all even here. bottom line is, i'm winning this fucking scavenger hunt this shit aint happening next week

PETE

Nobody will want to vote me out if I have kittens and share pictures of them muahahahahahahahahahaha

JESSICA

Oh no, we lost! I hope that Shane and Daisy want to be a final 3 because that is what I am envisioning in my hopes, dreams, and mood board.

SHANE

ETHAN

AHH TRIBAL IS SCARY MORE TO COME SOON BUT EVERYONE IS SO QUIET AND I DON'T LIKE IT BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE I AM THE TARGET BUT IF I AM I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHY IT IS JUST WEIRDLY QUIET AND MY PARANOIA IS EATING ME ALIVEEE

DAISY

https://youtu.be/tBDHsLvF8W8

NICOLE

WE ARE IMMUNE!!! I’m so excited to have flipped the vote on Silver AND got us immunity but, I’m gonna have to be more careful if I’m gonna go far in this game. I know I can be strategic, I can be a comp threat but I really have to work on making myself a little dimmer in the social department. If we swap or merge obviously down the line, I feel like I’m gonna have a LOT of different potential paths to the end but, it won’t matter if they all realize that. So I really really have to be careful here. I am playing this game with a level head so far and really trying to make my rounds daily to talk to people. I am close with Jake, close with Jones and close with Nash. I am working on forming better bonds with Jabari, Lindsay and Jennet right now and honestly to me, Pennino is a non factor as well as Mikey but I am obviously going to try to maintain being on their good side. So that’s all I got for this round it’s been pretty tame except for Jennet immediately leaking our alliance by accident. At this point I really don’t think it matters.

MADISON

Okay so our tribe is not superhuman and we finally lost a challenge so we will be attending tribal tonight. Nobody is really saying much in terms of what will happen which is extremely worrisome, however, I did hear Sam on call very subtly throw Cloud out there and I'm kinda hoping that Jessica and Shane heard that too and will kind of run with it. Daisy wants both of us to be safe and I feel the same way so I'm hoping that's what will happen. In other news!!! I have officially begun the idol hunt one round too late but perhaps that works out better because if something is found, I'll know it. So because of the way things were worded during the hunt, the idol has either been found already or whoever wrote this system wanted to through a red herring in there to trick us. I'm going with the latter because I feel like Jarod would do that. That's all from this neck of the woods for now, hopefully will be writing another one of these bad bois next round :*

SAM

JENNET

I WILL die for jones btw...

(a little later)

Survived the immunity challenge... at what cost

(after falling asleep on the beach)

The way we accidentally won that comp is literally a joke.... period i guess?

PETE

so we lost cus we’re the beauty tribe not the brains tribe fuck math dude anyways, it’s been hella fuckin quiet like not a lot of people are on and aren’t really talking. Up until about, 4 hours before tribal Sam comes to me and says the vote is gonna be Cloud and i’m like what who why. All he said is “that’s what he’s heard” honestly i think it’s just his own idea but whatever. I don’t know Cloud at all so it’s fine with me. Sam, myself, Jessica, and Shane apparently are all agreed to vote Cloud and with Ethan’s vote that’ll be 5.

CLOUD

i have nithing to say other than i might just be the stupidest person on the planet. absolutley nothing is happening in my head ever. if i stay its pure luck HSKSHSNSKBSKS

NASH

smiles at immunity... this is cute it feels good to not be in danger for once! i’m honestly still worried my tribe might want to cut me at next tribal but at least tonight can be chill! i hope kiki is first brookeisa boot xoxo

SAMMY

honestly there is no tea, daisy found an idol and gambles her vote but she lost her vote early so no worries w that! I love her so much and i hope she doesn’t snake me...but daisy if ur reading this, in this moment i love dont snake me mwah!! I love Jess and I love Cloud but everyone’s telling me Cloud is the vote but I’m so sad because I had such a good time with them and they are one of the few funny ones in the game!! Anyways not much is happening we lost the challenge cause we are just bad at math...blinks...I don’t think I’m in any danger and this vote should be unanimous. I was also told someone said I was one of the few active people so that’s a check in my book!

JAKE

https://youtu.be/HmtSAjyQoJI

I'm trying to lay low so if I'm not very present on Discord the next day or so that's why hehe

PETE

so ethan is down for voting Cloud, sammy too. Cool great awesome hot. i’m just sitting here vibing and suddenly Sammy tells me that my (and Madison’s) name came up for a second. He said it went away and it’s Cloud for the vote but like jskdhd why do i aaalways get targeted bitch i’m literally just sitting here whYY can’t i relax for once?! Frfr every survivor game it’s always this person or me. I’m always the other option and i just don’t get why lmao

LOVELIS

This tribes been kinda dead until like an hour ago plss, a new alliance of 5 has been organised and somehow me and Shane managed to make it seem like it was Jessica’s idea? Don’t really know how that happened in all honesty but a vibe. Then Daisy also leaked that she’s in another alliance who’s actively idol hunting so that was a lovely bit of beef that I love to see - my guess is she’s in a duo chat with Jess and they’ve tried to get this group formed with people who they think are unconnected, unbeknownst to them that me and Shane have a final two deal and I kinda have one with Sammy as well that happened on day one but it’s not really developed as of yet, he’s not really tried to talk game with me as of yet, but all in due time I suppose there’s plenty of time for more shenanigans 😂

MIKEY

HONESTLY Chile. Not much tea going around since this round we won. Im very proud of Nicole as she literally carried us and I pray she'll do it again dhbhsfg. Ive started getting really close with Jones and she's so fun to talk to, im hoping me her and nash can form a little trio and work together but who knows. Jennet STILL hasn't replied back after like a week so idk what's up w them LMAO

JABARI

So our tribe loved it when we blindsided silver, it puts me in a much better position than before. Now I have to talk more to people and take time to realize what's gonna happen. As of right now I have 2 alliances. The big majority one and the one where its just me and Jake and Jennet.

JENNET

OOOOO that sounds so interesting?? a natural born leader to me tbh. you could be a producer and help people’s dreams come true!! >:O that sounds to me like it would suit you well tbh,,, a teacher and a producer. :O and im actually taking comp sci this year! i like it,, it’s honestly pretty fun — i just wish my teacher wasn’t so confusing? she’s nice but doesn’t explain v well, i think it would be better to learn from her in person. but w the pharmacy thing i already know i don’t wanna go into that bc i’m struggling a lot w chem already :// and u really thought i had the braincell? im honored but also.. no BDJSNS -🧸

<33333 IM GLAD YOU ENJOYED IT THO ;-; HEHEH i had fun heh

OOO no I totally get that, i’m assuming you’re a senior in high school and this is just based off of my experiences and a lot of others and i’m sure pandemic really nailed it in, but by my junior and senior year in hs that was when I found my more, uh, reliable friends? but I also broke off from my group once I hit college and that’s when you really find the people you can rely on! i have a smol lil group now but it’s all really tight knit and I talk to each person at least like once a week, some more than others but that’s just how the other person works too yk? SO i’m really happy you parted from the toxicity!! don’t need that!!! and i’m glad you’re more confident too!! that’s really good. YOU’LL FIND MORE PEOPLE YOU VIBE WITH AND WORTH YOUR TIME SOON ENOUGH. there will be moments you feel alone and if you do, just remember you got me and the other lovely anons <3 

side note but omg if you are a senior in high school that means when I was a senior, you were a freshman and I was friends with a few back in high school since I was in band and a lot of them latched onto me alsdjflajsdf. i still talk to a few of them here and there and they also reach out to me occasionally so like owo

HNNG i follow a lot of artists on Instagram that i’m like wow, I love that art style and that art style and that art sty- BUT OMG I would love to see your Instagram,,, 

SURE WHATEVER YOU SAY ASDKFHASKDJF. i love it when people place their head on top of mine AHHH. that’s what I do to my shorter friends too and i’m like, wow I understand what it’s like to be tall and to hug people shorter than me. 

DSAJFDASFJ ITS funny cus I feel like I'm so LAZY LMAO. i always describe myself as “ah well if no one else will I guess I will” unless it’s something i’m really passionate about (like i loved band so I went for that section leader position ADSFJAD). but it’s also cus I like fucking around but i’ll get my shit together if I need to aSDFJDASKJF 

OOOO COMP SCI?? is it one of the AP classes? i’m glad that’s becoming more popular across schools,,, i think what saved me when I took CS in high school was just,,, lots of googling. also I guess kinda codeacademy??? 

IT’S OKAY. you’ll fine a way to forge your own path I believe in you!!! 

YOU NEED THE BRAINCELLS THO FOR YOUR TESTS SADLFJASDFJ

Episode #1: “everyone knows I’m here for the drama™️” ~Robbie

First impressions these people are basic players who wont have very big personalities, and not willing to put a lot of effort into this game. Hopefully thats not the case and its just late so no one is really wide awake :) Because I came to play and I hope thats what everyone else came here to do as well 

Okay so my plan basically worked, winning the first reward competition by placing a good score has opened up one of many avenues to come. Ryan, and Zeezo want to work with me (bad choice for them since I will be winning this aka taking them out eventually but oh well)

Him hitting it off really well with this tribe they are all so friendly and welcoming, Ain is my main homegirl at the moment she is the best and jared is a nice friendly face so it should be interesting to see what the coming days are like.

so not 30 minutes in and meowth comes out with the question "what if someones racist" which to me carried an air of accusation it was public and clearly meant for all to see it just gives me a bit of an icky feeling towards meowth

I'm glad that others are getting higher scores than me because i definitely don't want to be presenting as a threat in challenges particularity not the first day so i just am hoping that ill land middle of the pack challenge wise

so this immunity is fun i love puzzles like these even though they are hard tbh im not completly happy about our chances but i hope we can push through and win or the other tribes internet fucks up, either or really

so right now the vote seems to be between Robbie and Mewoth (Josh) and tbh i dont care which goes because they havent spoken to me but whatever, in any case id rather keep someone who actually contributed to the challenge and if he doesn't step it up then Josh will be gone next

Going into tribal council i am very nervous, you never know where the vote is until the votes are read and if im on the wrong side of the vote i might not be around much longer

I dont know whats gonna go down here but i hope i do well

reunited with lukas my love

she sells seashells at the seashore

why is the first vote already so confusing and wild.... just decide on a person

WHATS UPPPP!!! Can’t say much because I’m busy but I’m stoked!!! Only two other girls on my team tho :/ but it’s ok! I have Stephen who I know but I’ll get into all that later and I have lukas and Sammy on the other tribe who I LOVE TO DEATH but obviously can’t tell anyone that. Ain is on the other side who I hate but I just hope she gets voted out and we never have to interact :’)

Honestly, living my best life and enjoying the brief small talk with my tribe mates. So far getting a good vibe from everyone but lets be real, shit (I can curse right... I lowkey have always wanted to say that) is definitely going to go down as soon as something goes wrong. But like *shrug*. 

OK LET'S TALK ABOUT THAT TIME THAT I DIDNT WANT TO GRAB THE LIGHT AND SHINE IT ON ME AND WE WIN FIRST IMMUNITY AND I GET SENT TO PARADISE ISLAND!!!!!!!!! Yeah, because like, screw the idea of trying to lay a tad low for the first vote. But hey, I guess when you are working with Zeezo and she tells you the immunity boxes must be evens because of the clue she got, and then you get sent to PI, it can't be all that bad. I'm so shook I don't even know if I'm making sentences rn hahaha. I hate saying this, but like I am so happy with where I am rn, but I def know there is so much more work to put in before my tribe ends up going to tribal. AND SPEAKING OF TRIBES, WHET ON EARTH? Two abstains in the reward and then a tie and only two points in the immunity challenge for Yalos? Did they also think they were cast in ANTM because like same. We've all been there, amiright? Can they continue to do this so I can just breeze my way to merge and start playing this game already??? Please and thank you. 

When I wake up and realize I have so much work to do for school but at least I don't have to worry about going to tribal tonight! I aint mad! At least Im not gonna be the Francesca of this season soooooooo..... 

So... ya boy just beat Jared in a word search comp... and beat him... and went to Super Paradise Island... and idk which greek god is on my side, but one them has ya boy's back because he just the sapphire gem... Like no big deal... I didn't expect to be the first voted out and then just somehow came across getting one of the first big advantages of the game... WE ARE ALL FINE GUYS!!!

I have Oakley, who voted me out on Athena: Himalayas and Olivia, who I voted out on Atomic: Isle of Skye on my tribe. And my immediate thought is I want to work with them. Olivia more than Oakley, I don’t have any beef with him from another season but he is sneaky. However my strategy especially at this point in the game is just make lersonal connections and pretend to have the strategic knowledge of a goldfish. Here’s hoping it works.

So far I’ve talked to most people but some are easier to connect to than others, Joanna seems the most distant, she responds but it doesn’t feel friendly. But we won, so we’re all good this round. I really hope Ain goes home, shes manipulative, vindictive and isn’t afraid to use underhanded tactics.

WOAH! So after being recommended to play by a friend, I found out he ALSO recommended Miles to play, although in the other tribe.. I have someone I know here although I kinda got them eliminated in a Twitter Survivor... Hmmm... So far in Kalafati tribe, Im liking Miles and Joanna, Haven't had much contact with the others but they seem really cool. Im so excited to play, Especially with winning a lucky hidden immunity Idol

I’m still waving the flag

I’m still waving the flag I hate that challenge. I got a respectable score but if i did all that just to have the Yalos player stop after a low score, I'll be sad

My first impressions of the tribe is pretty positive! No immediate negative figures jump out at me. I'm still testing the waters, trying to figure out if any people are potentials for alliance members. Some people like Olivia, Jacob, Miles, Stephen and Thomas have reached out to me which makes them seem like good potentials for friends. However, I want to see how the reward challenge goes before I can evaluate my teammates further. 

It's amazing that we won the reward challenge and I'm so happy that I performed as well as I did. However, I am worried about the immunity challenge. I'm happy with the flash game, but the controls are really wacky and I already know it will take forever to get used to.

I'm honestly a little worried seeing that I didn't preform very well in the immunity challenge. Thankfully, we still managed to pull off a win and we didn't have to worry about tribal. Speaking of tribal, I don't think there is anyway Robbie is going to stay, seeing that he abstained in the reward and striked in the immunity. Also, I feel like I want to work with Olivia, but Miles also seems like a good person to work with, but I haven't approached either of them yet. Still weighing my options and figuring out the best way to proceed. 

Honestly it doesn’t seem like anyone is playing hard yet which is annoying me. Because I want to play hard, but if no one else is people can get sketched out by highly strategic, social players

Honestly if I finess this vote and stay in the game after forfeiting two comps it will be hilarious. But everyone knows I’m here for the drama™️ Hope no one gets blind sided

So the first night went..... alright. My tribe wasn’t as energetic or as talkitive as I had expected. It appears as though I am on a tribe with all gay men, which sounds nice in theory, but I’m bracing for the moment these twinks start wildin. Aside from the gays, I know Ain from a past org and am starting to warm back up to her. We will probs stick together for awhile. As of now, that’s all. 

Robbie, queen of being inactive and making cases to stay last minute, came to me with the idea of booting Meowth instead. I said hell yeah! All for that shit! Not that I don’t like Meowth, it’s just I would love to do something unexpected for the first tribal. However, Sammy and Michael seem to be so against it for some reason. Lord knows why. I’m going to aim to be in the majority, but I may just cast my vote for Meowth for the hell of it. 

Ok I don’t quite remember what my last confessional was but I know for a fact I fucked up the names. Robbie is the one on the line, Sammy is just another gay. I swap their names all of the time. 

I really like this tribe so far! Everyone seems pretty chill and it's nice to know that at the moment, nobody is really mean-spirited. I know that Jacob has some past with the other Miles, but he's on the other tribe, so there's really no past relationships to deal with either, at least that I know of! I think that by far, I'd probably like to align with Olivia and Joanna for sure, and maybe Stephen, Zeezo,  Oakley, and Julian as well? I'd rather not get into scheming this early! I think it'd be much better for my game at the moment not to be the leader or figurehead of a group, but rather an updated member. I guess I'll have to see!

Alright so... Not a whole lot is going on, it's just the start of the game, we're just doing the first reward challenge. This tribe is just a bit too large for my taste but whatever, I'll manage. Getting to know all these people is interesting, which is funny because the absolute LAST word I would use to describe myself is "interesting"

I'm not entirely sure what use one would have for a fire making kit in an online survivor. Am I meant to set my laptop on fire? ARE YOU TRYING TO TELL ME SOMETHING????????? lmao...

There's a few people that I'm getting great vibes from. Miles would probably be the biggest one rn. I would love nothing more than to get some sort of alliance going sooner rather than later JUST IN CASE but like I don't want to be the one to actively go out and do it because if someone leaks RIP ME. Idk what I'm doing just yet. We'll figure this out.

We won the first immunity and don't have to vote anyone out, that's awesome. I can't help but feel just a little concerned though, everyone's almost a little TOO peaceful on this tribe. I'm not saying I'd want to LOSE a comp and have to face tribal but the reads I'm getting from everyone is giving me a sense of unease. I do enjoy winning though and wouldn't mind winning out. I'm just saying, I feel very uneasy with the vibes I'm receiving. Good lord I just repeated myself there. Oh well.

I really like this tribe so far! Everyone seems pretty chill and it's nice to know that at the moment, nobody is really mean-spirited. I know that Jacob has some past with the other Miles, but he's on the other tribe, so there's really no past relationships to deal with either, at least that I know of!

I think I'm pretty safe after this immunity challenge. I was one of 2 people to win the head to head for my tribe and therefore I have a chance to go to Paradise Island! I'm trying my best NOT to go though because I think that would put a target on my back very early on.

Right now my closest ally is Matt and I feel that we have a strong bond. We're each other's #1's and talking back and forth over who should go tonight. I'm very torn for who I'm voting for at tribal tonight, it's either Meowth (Josh) or Robbie. I've heard that Robbie may have gotten the majority but I don't feel 100% on wanting him still in the game. Yes, Meowth is weak in challenges but he's another easy vote moving forward in the future.

So, what's been going for me so far?  Well, reward challenge I busted my ass and showed what I can do, which was great!  WE lost, which sucks, and 2 people didn't submit.  Those 2 were Miles and Robbie.  This made me upset, mostly because Miles I know from my Minecraft UHC days, so we made an instant alliance from that.  Robbie I didn't care about.  Then came immunity, where once again, Robbie was unable to compete, and I still stand by that I was robbed in my challenge because of a shit quality image, but this is what I'm used to from online games like this, so I'll move on (eventually).  We got rekt in immunity, and the obvious choice was looking like Robbie for not submitting twice.  So, being the intelligent player I am, I basically pitched to Robbie that he was going home unless he made a better pitch about someone else.  He aimed at Michael, someone who I somewhat wanted to work with at the time (in hind sight, I wouldn't have cared much).  I proposed, instead, we vote for meowth (Joshua) because he just rubbed me the wrong way, under-performed, and refused to talk game strategy with me at all.  I pulled in Lukas and Jared, as well as had Ain in my pocket, and with the acquiring of Sammy by both me and Robbie, the vote should be set in our favor.  I'm still trying to convince Miles to roll with us so he's not on the losing end of the vote, but I think its 50/50 whether he will or won't.  Honestly, I feel pretty safe with this vote, being that I was a top performer and have shown how active I strive to be in these games.  I'm not super worried about this vote and hope that Robbie sticks around.  Hopefully, he becomes a powerful player and a big help in challenges.  If he's not, he'll go next for sure.  Let's hope I don't live to regret these words!

I think I’m in a pretty safe spot right now, but we def have people who think they are running the show around here...SIT DOWN or else you’ll become a target early😉 but I like everyone just don’t know who we should keep...someone who hasn’t been active or someone who tries but does not communicate. Eh either way I’m not on the chopping block sooooo. Okay wow that sounds rude but um i like everyone:) yikes

Honestly, this is a fung ame and a fun set of people. Just hope my time here isn't too short.

So far I feel pretty good about my tribe even though there a couple people I forgot to ever talk to oops. We seem to be good at challenges and get along well. I've connected most with Ryan so far and told him my idol clue to gain his trust. He's told me he trusts me the most out of anyone so that's good. After we talked we decided to pull in a 3rd and settled with Thomas since he got the best score in the reward challenge. After consulting with Ryan I decided to share my clue with Thomas too and the 3 of us officially performed an alliance. I think with this alliance my goal is to think more long term. Thomas is probabaly going to on Tinder performing well at challenges and be a shield for me. He also doesn't seem to talk to a lot of other people. Meanwhile Ryan seems like the type of person who might play too hard so he could be another shield. Plus we get along really well so far so that's good :') We might pull in a 4th for the alliance later since Thomas is kind of inactive and Ryan suggested Stephen so I'm interested to see how that will pan out. In other news Ryan got sent to paradise island and got the sapphire gem thing so that's great :') So if one of us finds the idol we should have great power in the game so I'm looking forward to the rest of the game 

Nothing is going really because we have been on a winning streak and have been crushing it. I knew Stephen from a previous game and we agreed to work together. He is not being extremely subtle about it but I think he wants to work with Olivia because he has mentioned her a lot and how he likes her. I don't mind that because I do like her but I am worried about the two of them being closer to each other than to me because I know they know each other. I am really liking Ryan as well and would like to work with him. I am worried I am not being as social as I should be because I do notice that I don't talk to as many people as I would like. Miles I have talked to a bit but haven't built much of a relationship with him and everyone else I have said hi to and talked to a bit but I haven't really built anything or know anything about them. I just hope we can win long enough for me to build those relationships because I am worried that I am one of the two people to lose my round in the immunity challenge.

Episode 2 - “Y'all. Vote me out fr cause I'm inactive as fronk” - Joshua (through Autumn)

I hate flag-making challenges. I will not be helpful at all, and I hope that someone else can take the reigns and lead us to victory. I honestly feel safe going into a tribal council, but I do not want to test that theory.

Next morning

With Chips and Jules working on the crest designs, I feel confident that we will do well in the challenge. Maybe not the best, but definitely not the worst. I still have the same anxious feeling that my tribe is not active enough for my taste, but I will just have to live with it for now. Besides, at least this is not immunity because that we increase my anxiety by so much. But, I keep forgetting to search the idol hunt which is my bad, but it is just so hard and long that I do not really feel like searching all the time lol

ART CHALLENGE <333 i love these challenges. Jess made my picture 110% better and its super cute. The note that she wrote with it is also hella cute and I love the whole HP aesthetics bc i never got to go to real hogwarts ;-; but i'm sure most of yall can related. The boys weren't too helpful but nick was better than jacob who is sick. Nick was way more active aka jacob said 3 sentences the entire challenge sooooo…. if we lose idk I might just save jacob anyways bc pregame relations.

Won reward, but now we have to win immunity again. I really hope that this reward helps us continue to survive. I don't want to have to vote anyone out. We've been getting first, but I really just want to survive this challenge, its known to be hard.

I think I have been stuck with the second most challenge inept tribe in the history of my ORG career. I literally said so many answers in my version of the story and Jules just fucked it up. And then they got the girl's name wrong. And then they started mixing up characters. I know I did well, but fuck these people. God. Now we need a tribe to get 0 which is very unlikely. I will just resign myself to tribal. I hope and pray that these people have some common sense and do not want to vote me out

Listen. Listen. Listen. I dang knew this story was going to be Harry Potter based. I knew in my brain and in my heart that I shouldn’t have been the one to start that thing. What do I do? Start the dang thing. Oh well. We did alright. I would be shocked if we won tho but if we don’t I’ll be relieved. I def don’t feel confident enough but I really had a lot of fun with my tribe. I really miss this and really hope that my time isn’t cut short! I feel really good about my tribe mates sincerely. And that’s kind of scary! I would hate to see any of us to go and how it’s going to affect the bond we have if we vote someone out. In this moment with Max sitting out, it may be him who goes if we go to tribal. I hope that isn’t the case. I’ve got my fingers crossed for us. Huff Puff strong!

Honestly Jules dropped the ball sis!! But it’s okay, I love her. She’s really nice and I know she tried her best. Plus she’s in an alliance with me and Owen, so we should have the numbers against Joanna or Miguel if we go to tribal. Personally, I’d prefer Joanna to go. She’s kinda domineering, but she’s also an asset in challenges thus far. She is organized and direct. I’ve also talked to her a bit more than Miguel, so I guess I don’t really care who goes.

I’m happy I didn’t fuck up the reward comp and the shit that I drew got us a win!

I really hope I don't bomb that challenge, I answered everything that Kevin talked to me about.... I think!  The rest of them tried very hard but I am SOOO glad that I asked to do my part at the end because my memory of repeating things is horrendous but I'm usually pretty good at bullshitting test answers... too bad I got some of the multiple choice stuff wrong.

I think that if we do lose I am still in a good spot on this tribe and hopefully I won't be in danger.  I feel like I'm on everyone's good side and Max kind of just disappeared so maybe we could just vote him out this round? Idk.

Hopefully we don't have to worry about it.  I smell a swap coming up pretty soon and I just hope I'm either with Owen or with some of the people from my tribe.  I have no idea if they know anyone or are close with anyone in the other houses.

I'm still feeling the closest to Lily and Kevin but I have been talking to Landen a good bit too these days so hopefully we'll be safe or we can all just agree on Max.

16 minutes later

OOOOOH IS LANDEN PAVING THE WAY FOR A MOVE TO SEND MAX PACKING???

He just told me that me, lily and kevin are precious angels that must be protected and that he likes Max when he's around too so that sounds like something... HMMM...

I can't get cocky, I always go home when I get cocky. But I like this.

my host chat saw this first (shout-out to Drewie and Dennis): Y’all I’m an idiot. I thought I only knew 2 people in this game (Owen and chips). Then I remembered I also know Jess, Autumn, and dan. Literally love and respect each of you my brain just don’t got the strongest memory no more. I’m so sorry!!!! I literally just told landen I only know 2 ppl. I’m just gonna try to not remember it happened.

Ugh.....I need to get it together.

I love my tribe talking to each other now that we have to!! Everyday I'm like damn either I'm on the bottom or I'm not the only one with piss poor social game. Ok so... the moment the hosts said we got 1 point, I started getting ready for tribal lmaaaooo. No sense crying over it either because all the tribes basically just had to show up in order to beat that

Like how could we not go to tribal with a score of ONE? That shit's embarrassing hahaha. That's like when your teacher passes the test back to everyone sitting around you but not you so you KNOW it's bad. But you know what? It's all good cause I'd rather us take the L now and get it out the way and we can all laugh about it cause losing won't be funny after long. The real question is: will Gryffindor do this the easy way or the hard way caaauusse we all know who the weakest link is. I just wanna see if someone puts two and two together without my prodding. Chips already said we voting together right and I'm like yes sir. There's no better place than being on the same page

WE WON OMG!! Jules basically gave me nothing, which is fine, i understand, but i'm so impressed that we pulled that off. Absolutely killing these reward challenges really helps!

"Y'all. Vote me out fr cause I'm inactive as fronk."

Tonight we learned Joshua is a feminist selfless man that I stan because he's volunteering to go home without me having to put his name out, which I was going to do. Like imagine if every guy had that kind of self-awareness, to recognize why he should be the vote and then embrace it instead of wreaking havoc. And wanting to see others succeed more than yourself? King shit! He knew when to hang it up and did just that. Like the number of times I've seen a vote get complicated for no fucking reason because everyone wants a fight to the death. Enough- I'm old, tired, and cannot exert too much energy at once. We got a long game ahead of us, not to mention quarantine. So from the bottom of my heart, thank you Joshua. We need more players like you and I appreciate your service

im back back BACK AGAIN with another confessional! not much has changed but a few updates for the sake of these being required :) 1. max has become even more inactive, he's not reached out to me personally since the first day and any time i messaged him after that he's sent me nothing back that i can build a convo off of, so we just have stopped speaking. Luckily this challenge only required four people and everyone else SHOWED UP!! or at least spoke about their availability, while he did not. However in his defense he said he was having some issues at home and i feel for him but his inability to connect has been an issue before he spoke about anything in our tribe chat with us. I'm trying to give him the benefit of the doubt but this point my relationships with the other 3 are leaps and bounds ahead of where I am at with Max. Maybe he can pick up some speed if we continue winning challenges but, it's not looking too hot. SPEAKING OF CHALLENGES, well first we lost reward AGAIN, but we won immunity.. AGAIN! thank goodness for not being first or second boot, i always love being able to avoid these early tribals and if i can get to a swap without seeing one that would be ideal, but also if we do go and maybe vote out max? wouldn't be the worst thing. Moral of the story we won and thats exciting! however.. if we didn't.. the first big push of strategic talk came up with landen when he hinted at being frustrated with max's lack of presence which I also share. I do believe if we lost me and landen could have most definitely picked up ruthie and lily to form a four against him, if he even came to tribal. That would be my ideal situation and if we continue on this tribes hopefully it gives me a nice cushion to fall on if we do lose so i dont have to entirely blow up my social game within the first few rounds by voting out someone i've built a connection with. If max can go and the remaining four hufflepuffs can make a swap I would feel good about that, and maybe in the right circumstances we could work together on the swapped tribes because i genuinely like all of these people (yes max too but in this specific scenario he wouldn't be included bc... well..) anyways to close this off i still absolutely ADORE lily, she is fun and our conversations are really good, and same goes for ruthie, hopefully i dont have to see either of them or myself go home before we can really start playing because i think we could do some damage. :) ok anyways this was longer than i thought it would be goodbye

I'm still not over the fact that I was able to answer 7 of those questions right. I have the memory of a plastic fork.  I also love that we are SAFE!

I do kind of hope things get spicy and we swap this round and become two tribes of 9. That'd be cute. I don't want VI to get bored and crack on me. BUT ALSO I think I have solid enough relationships with almost everyone on this tribe... so who knows?!

Also... these hoes really out here trying to search for an idol in PUBLIC. IN PUBLIC. WHAT ON EARTH IS GOING ON HERE?

Dear diary, seems like we keep winning challenges, which is great but tbh i feel like every time i give a disadvantage to my team because english is not my first Language, and so far its been a vocabulary test and a listening and speaking test. I mean I knew I signed up for school but damn. Give me some macarena  or drinking tequila challenge and I'll crush it

bippity boppity boo im back again with almost no content kdfasjhdskjfh

Ravenclaw working smarter and we keep winning, period!!! Thankful that y'all put Dan and I together....bc truly we will be unstoppable in these competitions. I kind of want to lose soon though to see how things would shake out, but I don't really have bad blood with anyone. Joanna seems passionate enough in the tribe chat and the challenges, even if she's dry in PMs. Miguel still won't give me anything other than a "how are you," but I hope the best for him in life lol

Still love Jules and Dan, and we made a three person alliance, but I haven't talked with either of them much one on one since it happened.... I really need to step the social game up eventually, but right now, I'm coasting, and maybe that's what I need before I find the time and resources in this game to strike!!

The idol hunt is hard but Dan seems onto something. Honestly he's gonna be a big threat sooner or later so he's sticking around as long as I can keep him! The last two games I've been in I've seen "goats" get dragged to the end and locked in final 3 positions, and then these perceived goats have ended up winning. so I want the big players in this game to rise to the top and fight it out in the end!

let’s say i am como we dice.. fed up with a lot :flushed: a lot meaning joshua starting to get on my nerves a bit! he’s genuinely sweet n all but.. the way he complained about us losing by putting down others work HHH pissed me off. which is why i will be voting him out hehe.. but so far my misting has worked because no one wants to vote me out! mwah

Slytherin killed the memory challenge. We thought we were all gonna flop bc all of us thought we sucked at memory stuff. um well we knocked it out of the park? Ravenclaw got 4 and huff/gryff got 1. We got 7 so oops. I do hope things turn out well for Gryffindor but no one I really know/care about is in that house so I'm not too worried. I hope they continue to lose or even hufflepuff since ravenclaw has 2 of my friends in it.

I have been TERRIBLE with confessionals but only because there's really not been much going on? I have an alliance with Dan and Owen, and even though I wrote off Joanna I was DEFINITELY wrong in doing that. Miguel is sort of the outlier. Our team is kinda iconic though? We've done so well on all the challenges. I might be the weakest link? More to come.

it's pretty sad but the whole tribe has agreed to vote max if we lose, basically he's just never around because of what's going on at home and like thats sad but... we gotta do what we gotta do *shrug*. I'm really feeling good about Hufflepuff moving forward, i've never bonded this much this easily with EVERYONE on a tribe and i just feel like if we keep winning or even if we lose and have to vote out max, we could be a great group for the future. especially i feel great about working with kevin, we dominated eve's game after eve came between us in 2020 that dastardly witch... :P (juuust kiddin. love ya!) but now we could totally do well in this game too i think.....

lily and ruthie are just so sweet and we really bond talking about pretty much anything,, especially lily is a great conversationalist and i just find it so natural to talk to them both. i'd love to work with any combination of people from hufflepuff in the future, hopefully i start sucking a little less at all these challenges. i think i did pretty great on memory :D

So here is the summary of what has happened since last time

We had a reward challenge that was drawing. Mine sucked. Apparently 3/4 so no reward.

We played Telephone. My team didnt realize that details are the most important parts of that and didnt share then with Autumn so Autumn didnt share them with me. Then I didnt know them when asked about them.

We scored 1 point and lost. Since I still have no alliance I'm scared that it could be me. So I kind of got an idea how everyone was feeling.

Juls let me know she wanted to vote Joshua and- it's not me so that's fine!

Then I was talking to Autumn about it and - OOP! Josh asked to be voted out. So unless he plays an idol I'm supposing he is leaving after asking to go.

woo my tribe won immunity!! we are safe! i’m glad bc i’m forming good relationships with ppl on my tribe. i think we all get along rly well so i hope we keep winning. the challenge was fun and i slayed bc i’m skinny mwah

Ya know what’s refreshing? Being on a tribe that actually wins!!! The last three games I’ve played I’ve been on flop ass starting tribes.

Now we’ll lose every challenge

10 minutes later

This sickening bitch just found a hidden immunity idol!!!! Good until f6 L A D I E S!!!!!!

HI BARBS SO I WAS GROUNDED SO I MISSED THE CHALLENGE BUT MY HUFFLEPUFF BABS SLAYED SM SO IM LIVING

CONFESSIONAL 2.1 —

Not much strategy has happened this episode, just simply tribal bonding! We are SlytherWINNING, getting reward and immunity this time! How wonderful.

Regarding my tribe mates, I love all three. I pray, pray, pray we make swap, i do Noh want to be a dirty bad guy and have to vote one out.. yet. Haha.

I was drunk during immunity, one full glass of rum & coke, so I am shocked that we won immunity. Honestly, I feel silly admitting I was drunk to my tribe because... if I can do that when drunk, imagine if I was sober. Competition Beast, duh.

I also gave up my run this round for the tribe to use. Was partially social, partially I just do not understand how to do the Hunt, so I might as well help the greater good. Either way, it comes off positively.

Hoping for a smooth journey for a little longer!

x nick

Joshue has basically quit at this point so I have no fear going into tribal
