Which type of love interest would you be in a dating simulator?

The childhood best friend who's been in love with the main character their whole life

You're a loyal person to the core, and probably a hopeless romantic as well. You're full of love for those you care about, and that's both your biggest strength and weakness. You would do anything for them, even if it means hurting your own feelings. You will hide all your pain and your needs as longs as that means the rest gets to be happy. You biggest struggle is to clearly communicate your feelings, and you'll always try to avoid those conversations or pretend everything is fine (when it isn't). Remember you deserve to receive the same love you give.

It doesn't sit right with me that the anime/manga makes Brunnhilde sees Jack as the most despicable thing that walked the earth, more or less. She is far more objective and analytical to base things so superficially. Gods/valkyries, I am certain, have the ability to see the history and details of the person they select. Given this, she should have seen that he is not an irredeemable monster with no shred of humanity or morality. With the supposed bad, he has also done acts of good.

Based on wiki, he hunted down the worst criminals in London and got rid of even the original Jack the Ripper. It is questionable whether he actually killed prostitutes considering his ties--or simply took up the name of the original jack the ripper. Perhaps he did, considering what a piece of garbage his mother was or he didn't.

Either way, my Brunnhilde doesn't see him as a 'piece of shit'. She sees him for the shades of grey and complexities that is humanity. In truth, I cannot see her judging him for taking the lives of criminals or really, condemning him too harshly when it came to his asshole parents. The only thing she'd hold him accountable for was /if/ he murdered prostitutes that weren't dirty--in the sense they had no hand in the crimes plaguing London, abusing children or anything else abhorrent.There is a level of respect for his intelligence and ferreting out the worst of the worst in London.

So I perceive Brunnhilde to be more discerning and critical. She takes everything into account. Her intelligence is peak because she does not conform to the easiest and laziest explanation of a situation or a person. She's smart for a reason and that's because she looks past the surface, gathers information and formulates her own opinions based on her own guiding principles.

It has come to my attention, via a subtle hint and inkling, that Kimi may have been more involved in Inuyasha’s childhood than what is currently known [which is zero if asked--or if she bothered to answer].

I, for one, am shooketh. Being deceived by my own muse and her complexity? So rood.

Enough of the trope where memory loss undoes the damage or the corruption or whatever. More content where removing memories just removes the context.

The tragedy of needing to grieve and not knowing what or who you lost or why. The angst of having trauma and being denied the awareness that it's trauma. The suspense of being different somehow and left to wonder how and when. The tension of knowing that something is off and you can't find where it hurts. The Adventure Zone gets it. Kingdom Hearts gets it.

There is an aching inside you and you don't know how it got there.

something so fucked up about Chat Noir’s whole deal is that he is in a lot of ways Adrien playing a character. Like Adrien picked up his miraculous and was told he’d be a superhero so he was like “ok, time to act like a superhero!” and he lets himself have fun w it and play up the role and let loose and kind of just allow himself to be silly and goofy and have fun and for once in his life not care about performing Perfection™.

But. But none of the other characters KNOW THAT. So everyone just sees Chat Noir and is like “look at this guy’s ego. He’s so full of himself. Surely it’d be fair to knock him down a few pegs” without being aware of how few pegs he actually HAS. He’s like the “insecure character who overcompensates in ego” trope except he’s really not doing it unironically, he’s just having a fun LARP pretending to have self worth in his off-hours but nobody else is on the same page about it being a game and he refuses to tell them. He just dramatically pouts about it and lets them laugh and pretends like he’s not internalizing it and it is almost 3 am and my brain forced me to write this instead of sleeping I’m gonna take a melatonin

Watching the new tasting history and very charmed by the fact that the whole Michelin Star system apparently started out as, like, a galaxy-brain marketing campaign for the concept of road trips.

so. i understand where the sentiment "listening to an audiobook is the same thing as reading the book" is coming from - i mean, yes, the bottom line is you are taking in the same words in what is possibly a more accessible (or maybe just more enjoyable) format for you! and i'm 100% in agreement that "book snobs" who say "no you didn't really read it" if you listened to the audiobook are full of shit. ofc you should engage with stories in whatever way works for you, there is no moral or intellectual superiority to reading words off a page vs. listening to them

but it also is different? an audiobook is a performance. choices a narrator makes about line readings can drastically influence the meaning of the lines. even just different voices, accents, etc. - there are creative choices being made by the person delivering the words to you, and that affects your experience of the story in a different way than if you were making those choices in your own head. it might even change the way you visualize what's going on!

this isn't a bad thing it's just An Actual Thing & i think it's worth talking about. it rubs me the wrong way when people act like accommodations (and for many people audiobooks are an accommodation) always result in a completely identical experience, or even that they should, & if you suggest that people accessing media in different ways are having different experiences it's somehow ableist

anyway on rare occasions i really enjoy audiobooks but mostly they are much less accessible to me than words on a page (i need to be able to reread, flip back and forth, go at my own pace) & i also just really strongly prefer to encounter a text on my own before hearing someone else's performance of it, if possible! again i don't think it's "better" to read a physical book i just think it is a Distinct form of experiencing a story & acting like the two things are entirely the same is sort of doing a disservice to both

Based on what the subtle dialog in his backstory implies about what the slave masters used him for...I can't bring myself to imagine Aventurine as being totally normal about intimacy...😩

acerbic wit

you're a mentor — an old scarred wolf, an injured soldier, a disgraced paladin. your teachings read as shamelessly pretentious, speaking in rhymes and biting down hard into anyone stupid enough to make the wrong move. this isn't your first life, nor your second, nor your sixth — you'll make the most of your time shackled to this world, no matter how many loops it takes to get it right. with every defeat, you reincarnate; a little smarter, a little quicker, crueler and nastier. will you choose to be brutal, equalizing, that final strike in the face of your enemies? will you go soft, become tender and domesticated? the choice is yours. it's not like i can stop you

Solomon really is the 'Mr. I'll Steal Your Girl If You Drop The Ball' kind of guy. Very shameless and confident--but it's why we love him ksjfns.

But he can also be 'Mr. I'll Steal Your Girl Regardless of Whether You Drop The Ball Or Not~'.

i just think that, most of the time, you really do need to teach people how to love you. and equally, you need to be taught how to love others. this can feel scary and hard and even like a failure, especially if you're approaching a relationship with trauma - shouldn't it be easy to love me? yeah ofc. but love is an act of translation between people across experience, geography, culture, memory. it's constant, purposeful translation. and though it can be hard, there is real joy to be found in the teaching and learning of love.

Random Hisana Headcanons 🌸

The fact that Hisana’s element is Fire and Rukia’s is Ice never ceases to be perfect to me.

Not to mention--the cold doesn’t bother Hisana. At least not since her powers were awakened in her Hueco Mundo arc. What does bother her in her current form, is excessive heat and the rain. The latter simply makes her more lethargic and tired.

And yes--Hisana has different forms--which again is partially seen in her HC verse. I was writing about the abilities of each form at some point but got lazy. At present:

Tier 1: human form

Tier 2: there’s armor, flames, body markings, ‘eye shadow’, claws and other fun things

Tier 3: full fledge Phoenix form. Currently her most powerful form and hasn’t been unlocked as yet. Tier 4: TBD but it will be a delicious compromise of 3 and 2, making her all the more dangerous and strong--will be her toughest form c:
