I laughed so hard I immediately did the same thing except my phase two drops us in a volcano on a floating rock arena and I keep throwing flaming rocks you have to parry to finish the fight

stubbed my toe and accidentally did enough damage to launch myself into phase two where I have a more agile moveset but an unmistakable air of sorrow

slamming into the executive dysfunction invisible wall and getting launched across the map like in ATV Off-road Fury 2 on the PS2

I love talking with neurotypical people about my executive dysfunction because I'm like "yeah there's this invisible wall in my head that I'm incapable of getting past no matter what I do and it stops me from doing things" and they're like what the actual fuck

Meanwhile other neurodivergents are like

lahore pigeons are some of the most visually appealing birds out there. like in terms of visual design. very minimalist, good contrast.

genuinely, I thought it said that when I saw it on my recommended page and I'd been rewatching Horimiya so I went "ok skizz is on his period" and clicked on the episode without any further thought

You ever see something and think “I know exactly how to get notes on tumblr dot com from this”

Bargaining.

[what-did-i-get-myself-into-blog]

Okay okay this will not go away so

The Hermits ranking how weird they are right

And Impulse talking about his inverted mouse controls and how Skizz also uses inverted controls because they both played the same war game

Where Impulse was the helicopter pilot

And Skizz was his gunner

And I just.

In a fictional version of Hermitcraft, Impulse the demon soldier of wars long won or lost but either way forgotten going 'you know what, it's nice here, it's calm and fun and beautiful and the chaos is always tempered by love no matter how destructive it gets, I should bring my friend.'

And his friend Skizz- an angel, the opposite of him in every way, an enemy turned ally turned something like brother but the word brother does not and cannot truly encompass what they have become to one another over millennia- says, 'will they want me?'

'Of course they will.'

'I can't create. I never could.'

'That's not what it's about. Come on, come see it. Come be with me where there are no guns. Come fly again.'

And these two old soldiers, one guiding the other into a circle of people who will trust and care and treat him like a person, not a weapon. Who will laugh at his antics and love him just as he is, as Impulse came to love him.

Just fucking. Impulse and Skizz, both with ancient scars, building new things together just like they promised one another they would when everything was dust and blood and this- this is their happy ending, and they share it with people who don't have a clue, and its perfect.
