Aru Shah Characters As Taylor Swift Songs Because WHY NOT!
Aru: You're On Your Own, Kid
"You're on your own, kid. You always have been"
From sprinkler splashes to fireplace ashesI gave my blood, sweat, and tears for this I hosted parties and starved my body
Like I'd be saved by a perfect kiss
The jokes weren't funny, I took the money My friends from home don't know what to sayI looked around in a blood-soaked gown
And I saw something they can't take away
'Cause there were pages turned with the bridges burned
Everything you lose is a step you take.
So make the moment and taste it You've got no reason to be afraid.”
Mini: Marjorie
"Never be so polite, you forget your power. Never wield such power, you forget to be polite"
Brynne: Vigilante Shit
"They say looks can kill and I might try. I don't dress for women. I don't dress for men. Lately I've been dressing for revenge."
Aiden: Cardigan
"Cause I knew you. Steppin' on the last train. Marked me like a bloodstain, I.
I knew you. Tried to change the ending. Peter losing Wendy, I. I knew you.
Leavin' like a father. Running like water, I.
And when you are young, they assume you know nothing."
Rudy: The Archer
“I've been the archer I've been the prey Screaming, who could ever leave me, darling? But who could stay? (I see right through me, I see right through me)”
Sheela: The Best Day
“There is a video I found From back when I was three You set up a paint set in the kitchen And you're talking to me It's the age of princesses and pirate ships And the seven dwarfs And Daddy's smart And you're the prettiest lady in the whole wide world”
Nikita:
“Best believe I'm still bejeweled
When I walk in the room I can still make the whole place shimmer
And when I meet the band
They ask, "Do you have a man?" I can still say, "I don't remember"
Familiarity breeds contempt Don't put me in the basement
When I want the penthouse of your heart
Diamonds in my eyesI polish up real, I polish up real nice”
Kara: Anti-Hero
“It's me, hi, I'm the problem, it's me At tea time, everybody agrees I'll stare directly at the sun but never in the mirrorIt must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero
Sometimes I feel like everybody is a sexy babyAnd I'm a monster on the hillToo big to hang out, slowly lurching toward your favorite cityPierced through the heart, but never killed.”

Lightning Smoulder:
—
Aiden POV: Mine, Champagne Problems, Cornelia Street, The Great War
“Do you remember, we were sittin', there by the water? You put your arm around me for the first time You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter You are the best thing, that's ever been mine
Flash forward, and we're takin' on the world together And there's a drawer of my things at your place You learn my secrets and you figure out why I'm guarded You say we'll never make my parents' mistakes.”
—
“One for the money, two for the show I never was ready, so I watch you go Sometimes you just don't know the answer 'Til someone's on their knees and asks you
"She would've made such a lovely bride What a shame she's fucked in the head, " they said But you'll find the real thing instead She'll patch up your tapestry that I shred.”
—
“We were a fresh page on the desk Filling in the blanks as we go As if the street lights pointed in an arrowhead Leading us home
And I hope I never lose you, hope it never ends I'd never walk Cornelia Street again That's the kind of heartbreak time could never mend I'd never walk Cornelia Street again.”
—
“You drew up some good faith treaties I drew curtains closed, drank my poison all alone You said I have to trust more freely But diesel is desire, you were playin' with fire And maybe it's the past that's talkin' Screamin' from the crypt Tellin' me to punish you for things you never did So I justified it
~
It turned into something bigger Somewhere in the haze, got a sense I'd been betrayed Your finger on my hair pin triggers Soldier down on that icy ground Looked up at me with honor and truth Broken and blue, so I called off the troops That was the night I nearly lost you
I really thought I lost you.”
—
Aru POV: Enchanted, Gold Rush, You’re Losing Me
—
“This is me praying that This was the very first page Not where the story line ends My thoughts will echo your name, until I see you again These are the words I held back, as I was leaving too soon I was enchanted to meet you Please don't be in love with someone else Please don't have somebody waiting on you.”
—
“Cause I don't like a gold rush, gold rush I don't like anticipating my face in a red flush I don't like that anyone would die to feel your touch Everybody wants you Everybody wonders what it would be like to love you Walk past, quick brush I don't like slow motion double vision in rose blush I don't like that falling feels like flying 'til the bone crush Everybody wants you But I don't like a gold rush.”
—
“How long could we be a sad song 'Til we were too far gone to bring back to life? I gave you all my best me's, my endless empathy And all I did was bleed as I tried to be the bravest soldier Fighting in only your army Frontlines, don't you ignore meI'm the best thing at this party (You're losin' me) And I wouldn't marry me either A pathological people pleaser Who only wanted you to see her And I'm fadin', thinkin'
"Do something, babe, say something" (say something) "Lose something, babe, risk something" (you're losin' me) "Choose something, babe, I got nothing (got nothing) To believe Unless you're choosin' me.”
—
Snake Of Death:
—
Mini POV: Midnight Rain, Lover
—
“'Cause he was sunshine I was midnight rain He wanted it comfortable I wanted that pain He wanted a bride I was making my own name Chasing that fame He stayed the same All of me changed Like midnight.”
—
“Ladies and gentlemen, will you please stand? With every guitar string scar on my hand I take this magnetic force of a man to be my lover
My heart's been borrowed and yours has been blue All's well that ends well to end up with you Swear to be overdramatic and true to my lover.”
—
Rudy POV: Willow
—
“Life was a willow and it bent right to your wind (oh) Head on the pillow, I could feel you sneaking in As if you were a mythical thing Like you were a trophy or a champion ring And there was one prize I'd cheat to win The more that you say The less I know Wherever you stray I follow I'm begging for you to take my hand Wreck my plans That's my man.”
—
Hirynne:
—
Hira POV: Love Story
—
“Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone I'll be waiting, all there's left to do is run You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess It's a love story, baby, just say, "Yes"
—
Brynne POV: Fearless
—
“And I don't know how it gets better than this You take my hand and drag me head first Fearless And I don't know why But with you I'd dance in a storm In my best dress Fearless.”

Leave it all to your provider
It's crazy how I applied to Ashesi because I wanted to build a project that would help students share their projects and connect with opportunities. I didn't get picked and that shook me for about a day but I got back on the road after that, trusting my journey to God my creator and provider.
Months later a student happens to reach out to me to build that exact kind of project which I now realize is crazy. At the end of the day all that matters is to do your absolute best and leave the rest to your creator.
Manifestation is very real

Blazing ashes
I am the silent hiss Slithering through memories The wooden whispers are feeling me with You will soon notice I am curving your wheeze Tour cough, your will So rapidly I grow, you see I am embracing you all Engulfing in flames your inherited thoughts Your manners, your culture, even your ghosts Anything I can touch, into ashes I will turn Yet more than a century here, I count MOFRED 🌹Thank you!

They are one of the mechanisms, a band of immortal space pirates on the starship aurora.
You can listen to the albums on Spotify (pick a non tales to be told or death to the mechanisms album and listen through in order. For ashes id recommend ulysses dies at dawn), or find recording of the live shows on YouTube. You can also find short stories on the mechanisms website.
Ashesis an absolute pyromaniac, and the ships quartermaster.
Ashes doesn't get a ton of interactions usually, but she do have a backstory song called lucky sevens, and they are in a fair number of the live shows.
DO YOU KNOW THIS CHARACTER?
#the mechanisms#ashes o'reilly#the website uses she/her so i will too#but im not certain#i always assumed they where enby for some reason

2021 Summer done and dusted. They came in their numbers, took lead of many activities to define the 2021 summer academy experience in Bamenda and Yaounde and to advance the goals of Open Dreams and to inspire the youth. They also carried out humanitarian activities in Douala and Buea and participated in conferences. They demonstrated commitment, resilience and determination and we felt their tremendous impact. As they hit the skies back to their institutions, we are so thankful.

Guest Lecture at Uppsala University African Studies Course: Closing the Circle (new blog post)
In November, I was invited to give a lecture in the African Studies course at Uppsala University. The lecture was to be based on my research, preferably with a link to African youth as that was a theme for this year’s course. I chose the topic: University students in Ghana, Migration Aspirations and the Colonial University.
The lecture focused on decolonial thought, reasons for studying abroad…

My Top Games of 2021
Another year in the books, another great selection of games to choose from. For this list, I’ll be counting down my top games from this year. I’ll only include releases I played from this year, so no Yakuza 7, Hades, or Miles Morales, as fantastic as both those games were. Last gen games with a PS5 port don’t count unless it’s a revamped version like Death Stranding. Enjoy!
20: Returnal
Sorry to everyone who really enjoyed this game, I just didn’t gel with it. Sure, the roguelike gameplay was awesome and the story intrigued me, but still, it just wasn’t fun to try and beat. Getting through runs seemed to be a matter of luck, with no upgrades to give your character between runs, unlike with Hades or Deathloop. I eventually returned this one since it was becoming a bore and just took up space on my system. Will I reattempt it in the future? Maybe, but that’s not likely at the moment.
19: Lost Judgement
I played Judgement earlier this year and I loved it. I enjoyed the gritty and personal detective story with the usual Yakuza insanity. As for the sequel, it seemed to vary. The School Stories missions were some of my favorite parts of the game (Amasawa is my apprentice, you cannot convince me otherwise) and I loved the new Snake fighting style. The parkour mechanics could have been implemented better, but the improved stealth was definitely welcome. As for the story, well, I’m mixed. While the game tackles heavy themes like suicide, bullying, and Japan’s justice system perfectly, it horribly fucks up when it comes to sexual assault. I won’t spoil how, but it’s not given nearly the same level of attention as the other themes it addresses, settling for bringing it up and tossing it aside by the final act. That aside, I enjoyed everything else about the game, even if the story wasn’t as personal to Yagami.
18: Persona 5: Strikers
I finally finished Persona 5 Royal earlier this year, my first game I played since my PS4 got bricked. I got the sequel right after I beat Royal and I loved it. I loved getting another chance to hang with the Phantom Thieves, have a ferris wheel date with Makoto, and imagine inventive scenarios for fanfics. Plus the new characters Sophie and Zenkichi are a blast to hang and play with, especially with the hack-and-slash gamepley that permeates the spinoff. It was one hell of a summer vacation.
17: Death Stranding: Director’s Cut
Okay, I’ve only done the prologue and started the first chapter, but this looks spectacular so far. Can’t wait to play the rest of it, because it looks gorgeous on the PS5. And if the quality of life updates are anything to go by, I may enjoy this a lot more than I did the first time around.
16: The Dark Pictures Anthology: House of Ashes
I finally relented and picked up a copy of the latest entry in this choice driven horror series. It’s a pretty solid game, a horror story set during the Iraq War in 2003. Sure, the dialogue isn’t perfect and some characters annoyed the hell out of me (looking at you, Eric), but I still enjoyed the tense atmosphere and pressure to keep everyone alive till the end of the game. There are some solid performances in this game as well as some great character arcs, especially for Jason. I can’t wait for that next entry in the series.
15: Scarlett Nexus
I’ll be honest, I’ve only finished half of this game, still need to play and finish Kasane’s storyline, but I still dug the story even if it got pretty nuts at certain points. The characters are endearing, the action is a blast to play, the voice acting was on point, and I was so invested for all of it. Now I need to finish Kasane's arc to get the full experience.
14: Deathloop
I got into rogue-like games this year with Hades and this gem of a game. I enjoyed the Dishonored games, but damn, did they stress me out when it came to going nonlethal. Enter Deathloop, and all my problems are gone. This game is fast-paced, entertaining as hell when it comes to dialogue, and incredibly replayable. Still need to finish it, but it’s freaking great so far.
13: Tales of Arise
Still need to finish this, but what a great introduction to the Tales franchise all the same. With gorgeous looking graphics, an incredibly likeable group of main characters, amazing voice acting, exciting combat, and heavy themes like prejudice and self-hate, this has been an amazing JRPG to play. Just need to finish it to get the full experience.
12: Alan Wake: Remastered
Hello, old friend. I’m glad I was able to revisit this gem of a game, even if some mechanics hadn’t aged as well as other parts of the game. Also glad we’re getting a sequel in a couple years, and an M-rated survival horror game at that.
11: Demon Slayer: The Hinokami Chronicles
This was basically the Naruto games with a better story, not that I’m complaining. Definitely keeping this one for a while, especially as a Demon Slayer fan.
10: Kena: Bridge of Spirits
Only started playing this one recently, but I’m glad I did all the same. It feels like the old PS2 games I played as a kid, simple linear games with cute protagonists and sidekicks and an evil monster to defeat. Granted, I’m not that far into it and my experience may change later, but for now, it’s in my top 10.
9: Resident Evil: Village
This one has gone up on the list as the months since it came out have gone by. It’s an excellent horror game that will scare you shitless as well as entertain. With some fantastic sequences, like House Beneviento, it cements itself as one of Resident Evil’s best entries. Can’t wait for what comes next!
8: Mass Effect: Legendary Edition
This was one of the worst kept secrets of last year, and I loved every minute of it. From revisiting old planets like Tuchanka and Illium to participating in events like the Genophage Cure and the Fall of Thessia to romances and friendships, it was a blast to return to this series and I sobbed when it was over. And it looked gorgeous as well. I need that new Mass Effect game.
7: The Medium
A simple, yet incredibly effective horror game that shook me with its morally grey story, this stayed on my mind throughout the year. Top it off with one hell of a cliffhanger ending and a masterful performance by Troy Baker as The Maw, I couldn’t put this game down. Definitely pre-ordering a copy of a sequel if anything is announced.
6: Hitman 3
I can’t believe it took me this long to get into the series. It was just so enjoyable to kill my targets, especially when the method was creative as hell. Add to that an impressive story, careful preplanning, and the ability to play the missions from the past two games on PS5, and you’ve got a winning combination when it comes to a stealth game.
5: Far Cry 6
My expectations for this game were high and it did not disappoint. Not only was Giancarlo Esposito’s performance of Anton Castillo a masterclass in playing a villain, it was also Ubisoft’s first actually political game. While not all of it seemed to hit perfectly, the game’s message of fighting fascism hit home, especially in the wake of all that has happened these past two years. Also, the game’s protagonist, Dani Rojas, is definitely the best Far Cry protagonist I’ve seen in a while. And some post credit audio may have confirmed that a certain villain is still alive in the Far Cry universe.
4: Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy
I beat this game quickly because I was addicted from the first scene aboard the Milano. Everything about this game is amazing, from the story to the combat to the banter between the Guardians to the lore. It was a wild ride that made me tear up several times. Plus, it was set to an amazing score and soundtrack, and that’s a win for any Guardians game.
3: Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart
The first showcase of what the PS5 could really do with its games did not fall short at all. From the incredibly short load times to the stellar graphics to the engaging action sequences, I loved this adventure from start to finish. Plus, the legendary Jennifer Hale voices new protagonist Rivet and she is amazing at her job. For anyone on the fence about getting a PS5, here is your reason for buying one, provided you’re able to.
2: Psychonauts 2
I played and finished the first game years ago and was incredibly impressed by the sequel. Not only has it been the best looking Double Fine game I’ve ever played, it’s been one of the best action-adventure games, especially when it comes to dealing with mental health issues. The Bob Zanotto sequence that dealt with alcoholism was especially poignant for me, since I seem to have increased my alcohol intake since a dear friend of mine died this past April. Also, Jack Black was spectacular as the Brain in a Jar, I need more of Jack Black in video games.
1: Life is Strange: True Colors
It was a tough choice, but in the end, I had to pick that game that had me sobbing from start to finish. It was my first time playing a Life is Strange game from start to finish and I adored it. With the romance and the empathetic abilities, plus an incredibly likeable protagonist in Alex Chen thanks to a fantastic performance from Erika Mori, this game easily cemented itself as my personal pick for game of the year.
What were your picks for game of the year for 2021? Leave your answer in the comments!
