-Flip being inspired by superman to be a hero and help him for a change
-WHY ARE YOU MAD AT HIM HE'S JUST A LITTLE BOY
-calling it now, Krypton was about to explode or some shit so they invaded a new planet to live in but Krypton exploded mid invasion
-WTF HE'S JUST A LITTLE BOY YOU ARE MAKING A LITTLE BOY CRY I HOPE YOU'RE PROUD OF YOURSELF
-Good job Clark! THIS is how you play the pity card
-"Superman took everything from me" my brother in christ, YOU put the suit on and attacked him
-the theme of people being inspired by superman to help continues till the end! and they can actually be heroes by doing a mundane action! (which might be the message)
-Superman is inspired by the people who were inspired by him
-literally every time Ivo is losing he says Clark is cheating, dude just admit you are a loser

[ *peeks ever-so-cautiously out from the rock I've been living under & wordlessly chucks This out at your feet before scuttling back into the darkness once more* ]
...man isn't it just absolutely wild when a rogue art demon suddenly possesses your body out of the blue one day and decides to necromance the ancient bones of a couple of multiple-years-old askbox requests & synthesize them into a fully actualized Something™ that they never would have even come close to being all those years before? Yeah? You know what I mean? ...........................No? x'3c well,,, anyways—
(they're secret-dating at the time of this scene so that's why they're sneaking around in the woods like this, in case anyone was wondering lol)

Okay, just got to the end of Netflix Ronja.
It's so gorgeous and I'm full of joy. The camera panning over breathtaking landscapes in between every scene, to the point of it being the third main character 🙌
Score : delivers!
Liking the wardrobe choices intensely. First of all: medievalish fiction in madder red and birchleaf yellow and oak bark and walnut brown instead of heaps of black leather ? Fabulous. I don't really mind that it's three centuries at once in the town (torn on the Feminist Armour™, but on the other hand I would absolutely wear that armour so I can't really blame them) because I'm just happy that colour is back on the menu.
Also here for additional Mattis content. 😁 That people somehow object to being relieved of their coin is a mystery with that motivational they're getting 😁😁😁 Love him!
Accents that aren't from Stockholm is another win for the home team 🙌
I tolerate the town plot, which is the weaker part of the show, and a bit of a waste of Pernilla August so far.
The creatures are decent. Though I'm concerned that unless someone dies on screen, did they actually die?
Naked manbutt snowbath is in season.
All I'm asking for is that you sing just one song in the second half of the series, pretty please.

I dont think any game has managed to freak me out more than Artemy's first entrance to the Termitary in Pathologic 2. I genuinely had to pause the game and stare at the wall for a little bit after talking with Aglaya: i couldnt believe the sheer horror of it all and i had already known why the Termitary was locked.
The Termitary looked fucked up in Patho classic already, with the rusty iron bars, infected people simply waiting to die, the worms and butchers pacing around frantically but almost aimlessly, and the visual and visceral lack of care about anything that happened inside from the rest of the town. They barely had doors; the entire building is a literal block of decrepit cement with all the uncomfortable visuals of a people left to rot far longer than the plague has been in town. Every time i went there i would wince with the reminder that yeah it has the same vibes as the apartment complexes in the poorest zones of my city, and i think pretty intentionally too. Even with the limitations of the era IPL managed to capture what i believe to be a pretty universal image of poverty, and more generally, of marginalization. The Kin very much are the lowest rung of society in Town-On-Gorkhon and nobody has to tell you that if you give a single look to the Termitary.
And yet? i can't say i was too shocked when i entered the place. I got a bit uncomfortable with the information given about the situation, but entering the Termitary in Pathologic 2 was -in comparison- a punch to the gut. The sound design of the game in general is extremely good, but the choice to make the OST of the entire place literal screaming and coughing is... something else.
It's not even a subtle motif in an actual theme, or a distant scream here and there like in classic, but the ever-present and deafening evidence of what exactly is happening every second you stand inside this place: it drives the horror of it all home with uncanny precision and never lets you, for a single moment, forget what has happened. It's viscerally effective in its simplicity and horribly terrifying in its implications.
The Termitary itself looks a bit cleaner to match the general aesthetic of the game, but it doesnt miss the mark with it's visual design either, and i would say the cleanliness of it works to deliver the impact of the sound better. One doesnt exactly expect to enter what looks like a brutishly simple yet not that bad building and be met with the agonized screams of the dying. It even manages to recontextualize the graffiti, which i think normally would be a sign of life and culture trying to persevere even in such terrible conditions (pre-plague), but it becomes terribly morbid with the addition of not only the screaming but the corpses and will-be corpses around the Termitary. It makes them look like the bloody scratches of the desperate at first glance... and perhaps they might be, in part.

Existing is cool. We all exist in some capacity.
I hope you do well in the seal of biliteracy test! I personally have another few years before I need to take it, and that will be in French most likely.
Hopefully if I do write a fanfic you will just end up finding it in the wild. Not likely but it could happen
Anyway, I hope that you start to feel more human later.

Existing is pretty cool! And thank you. I have no clue what my scoring is gonna be on that one, because I know my speaking section was...subpar at best, but maybe the other 3 sections were good enough to offset that? Who knows!
At least you know that it's a possibility! I didn't even know the seal or the test was a thing until like a month ago when I got an email like "hey quil sign up to take this test you took enough foreign language credits for it" like...you mean the courses I took...over a year ago??
just because I have an associated in spanish doesn't mean I know what I'm doing
And even if its unlikely for me to find your fic in the wild, I can still hope! I mean, i'll never know whether or not it was yours, but still! But yeah unlikely. I don't read a lot of fanfic, actually. Like 95% of the time I read a fic it's to support a mutual who wrote it, not because I particularly felt like reading fics. Ironic considering I'm a fic writer, but true.
Thank you for the well wishes though! I'm not particularly concerned with feeling human, but I understand and appreciate the sentiment, and I wish the same for you!
