Ouroboros blorbos,,,, Ouroblorbos even,,,,,,?
I've been rotating them in my mind so much
(Things I want you to take away from this:
- we have been robbed of the boob window in the flash fencer class outfit for the guys and I will not stand for that
- Taion radiates maximum magical girl (gender neutral) energy in the incursur outfit and I love that for him
- why does Noah sometimes look like he hasn't slept for 3 days my guy has bags under his eyes fr)

i think the reason why im so drawn to spirit tracks and pkmn scarvi is that having the legendary/princess as a companion rather than a goal that marks the games completion makes me feel satisfied the way i would after helping a friend
my brother always teases me about how I still havent finished botw after almost 7 years bc "id rather be out picking flowers" which i wont say is untrue. and yes i know Zeldas been holding off ganon for 100 years, yes i can get some sort of idea what her relationship with link was like by recalling memories and going through her diary. ive always loved botw for its unique storytelling and setting which makes it stand out, because it lets you get to know who you're saving.
but because theyre memories, it only works if theres something for the player to investigate that already happened. its retroactive (but effective nonetheless)
on the other hand, spirit tracks does something similar but instead of having the player try to piece together memories and interpret them as a spectator, you actually have an opportunity to get to know zelda yourself by talking to her and working together. besides making it a gameplay mechanic, giving the player control over how they interact with zelda makes it so much more personable.
and I find that making the goal feel personal instead of an obligation gives me more of a reason to work towards it. I know what kind of person botw zelda was but as the player, shes still very much a stranger to me. but spirit tracks zelda? thats my friend!!!! she invited me to go to the beach after we get her body back!!! i dont want to whip her to make her move faster thats mean :(
you know how hostage negotiators are trained to introduce themselves and get to know the person theyre negotiating with because its harder to hurt someone when you know what their favorite food is? its kinda like that, because it feels like im helping a friend than being told or led to do smth
and although i havent played scarvi myself, i feel an attachment to koraidon and miraidon even just watching playthrough clips because its like!! thats my weird scaly dog!! it loves sandwiches and we're friends!!! you know!!!!!!

arc 8 otto gets more and more deranged with every appearance i love it 😭😭😭😭 this chapter was a mainly otto centric one which was fascinating!!! URGH i have many thoughts :((( the whole chapter being about “walking with light”….. where otto acknowledges that:
and this is AFTER julius apologizes to otto and otto emphasizes to julius’s face that. yeah. julius is still an enemy. like yeah theyre exchanging more pleasant words now but otto specifically emphasizes that otto isnt a knight. julius isnt a merchant. julius is in another camp. theyre opposites T^T AND THEN roswaal telling otto that opposing emilia and subarus way of thinking is a poison that Will kill him. BUT THEN OTTO says
he cant walk with light meaning he cant see reality and still choose to be idealistic and noble like julius and emilia and subaru even though hes still trying to support emilia and subaru. :,,,))) and he admits that!!! hes still choosing to walk a darker path than them even knowing hes not as strong as others!!! even knowing that emilia and subaru will never agree with him and vice versa!!! hes walking alone, in a way T^T

Thinking about how in The Satan Pit, Ten’s response to Ida saying they’ll never get back up to the station is “I’ll get back. Rose is up there.” Because to him, his getting back to Rose, his being there to protect her is not a question, it is a statement of fact. “He said I was going to die in battle.” “He lied.” It is a certainty, a necessity. No wonder his inability to save her in Doomsday just wrecks him irreparably—even afterwards, he’s unable to acknowledge it. To him, she’s not gone. She’s “still lost.”

All the time I think about how inherently queer the furry fandom is. People from all over the world used to think “I’ve got to be the only person like this, why am I like this” and then they meet another furry and it’s like “oh my god I’m not the only one”. Two people who are considered some of the earliest members of the furry fandom are two men who bonded over their love of sci-fi and fantasy animals and they fell in love! The majority of the fandom is LGBTQ+! The whole concept of using a fantasy animal to represent you, or the you that you want to be, is so incredibly queer!
Idk I just love furries and I love queer people. I am so happy that I have this fandom; it has really helped me explore my sexuality and my gender in beautiful ways

i wish i had the words to explain what yoongi and his d-day did for my mental health this year. i really wish i had the power to somehow let him know that i related to every word he said in that album and everything he spoke about in his documentary, and that his wisdom and reassurances really pushed me forward like nothing else all these months. ugh i wish.

So, I, Um.... Yeah.
Perchance To Dream
Chapter One: First, The Storm
"There, there, you're all right now," I gently lied, as I lay him down to rest. And then, I told the truth, with all my heart. "And it will be all right. The room is dry, Sherlock. The waters are far, far from you, and they will not enter as long as I am here. Now rest. I will only be a moment."
"Promise, John?" he asked, voice still high, faint, brittle.
It was my name he'd said, I insisted to myself, most firmly. Mine.
(A fanfiction for Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened; Frogwares videogame series)
