#Harrow is kinda like that guy in the menu

[harrowedsoup]

Yes yes Gideon is always the cook between the two of them. Harrow barely likes to eat - why would she be good at cooking, why would she even have the desire???

But consider: Harrow despising food or more accurately, despising the fact that she hates most food and she’s unable to get the food she does like reliably without making it herself. Harrow hating that she has what she considers a weakness and trying to find a way out of it and does it the most Harrow way possible. She studies food and food is a fairly simple science when you get down to it.

It requires precision and patience and if it doesn’t come naturally to you it requires a whole lot of effort.

I imagine her as being an incredibly talented high dining chef that only really studied food because it didn’t come naturally to her and uses her meals to ‘say’ things about food. Mostly that food isn’t something to enjoy (because again, food is icky to her ) Gideon’s genuine deep love of food, in all its forms, is what starts to change her mind about it.

myth's game writeup of 2023

i waited until the new year to finish this in case i managed to beat a game during december. i did not. ANYWAY.

this will contain new games as well as games i only got around to in 2023. light on spoilers but be warned

Octopath Traveler II (2023)

as far as i remember, this was the first new game I played this year, and god did it deliver. I've been a fan of octopath since the first one came out on switch in 2018, counting it as my favorite game of all time, so to have a sequel after all this time was thrilling. it did almost everything octopath 1 did and better. new path actions, day/night system, branching stories, fucking boats?? incredible.

my biggest gripe has to be the new hidden classes. I started with throne so getting inventor 10 minutes after my chapter one did definitely fuck up the progression a little bit. I think I preferred ot1 hidden classes. while the dungeons were underwhelming, the boss battles really make you fight for these secret techniques, something absent in 3 out of the 4 hidden classes of octopath 2.

overall: 4/5 BP.

Xenoblade Chronicles 3: Future Redeemed (2023)

xenoblade 3 as the end of the klaus trilogy really didn't sit well with me, for reasons that don't belong on my review of its dlc, but future redeemed fixed nearly every problem i had with base xc3 — both story and gameplay wise. it ties every xenoblade game and even some of gears and saga into a neat little 40 hour bow, and is truly a love letter to the entire series. I can only think of one problem I still have with it. the fucking menu music.

where do i even fucking start with this one really. relatively speaking, I'm a new xenoblade fan, having started xc1 in march 2022 during a harrowing experience with adhd meds, and since then it had kinda consumed me. I finished it in about a week, went on to watch xenoblade 2 because I had heard the gameplay wasn't great, and got my hands on xenoblade 3 day of release.

overall: 5 dance apples.

Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (2023)

as someone who was not immune to the hype surrounding botw, I had high hopes for the sequel. hopes that were painfully, slowly, fed into a trash compactor over my playthrough. this is another game I got on release day, lining up outside gamestop in the heat, and lets not forget that it's the only first-party switch game with a price tag of seventy bucks.

the game plays like a tech demo. I have a lot of love in my heart for it. the story was better that botw, the world was more expansive than botw, but the problem here is that everything it does is directly compared to breath of the wild. it doesn't get enough time to shine, because we're in the exact same world as 6 years ago, but instead of pinkish black malice we have blackish pink gloom. i much prefer the runes to the zonai abilities, and the sense of wonder that permeated breath of the wild is replaced by a sense of nostalgia that just doesn't appeal to me much.

all of this isn't to say it's a bad game. I think it's a great game, honestly, but a great game that wasn't meant for me. I've seen the insane shit people do with ultrahand, but it just... isn't my style.

overall: 441/1000 korok seeds

Pikmin 4 (2023)

it's pikmin. i dont have much to say about it. it was a lot of fun, loved that part where i bulborbed all over those guys. im not a gameplay reviewer, at heart i mostly talk about story, and a game like pikmin doesn't have much for me to comment on. good fun. lived up to expectations. probably wouldn't replay.

overall: 7500 sparklium

Final Fantasy XIV: Stormblood (2017)

oh, stormblood... the rage you still fill my veins with. I'm not going to spend too long on this one because I have better things to do with my life than shit on an expansion everyone already hates, but let me make it clear I actually do have reasons for disliking it.

having ala mhigo built up since the very start of a realm reborn, only to have half of the ala mhigo expansion take place halfway across the star, was very disappointing. the monotony of the three areas in gyr abania compared to the three far east areas was very disappointing. the treatment of the people of the steppe and honestly that entire segment in the main story quest was very disappointing. hien, as a character, in his entirety, was very disappointing.

I will say it had strong parts. the 61-70 quests for several jobs were the strongest in their entire story (see: dark knight). the dungeons started to get more interesting. it gave us the quest Child Labor, which is hilarious and I'll never be finishing it because I want it there forever.

overall: 1/3 WHM Lillies.

Final Fantasy XIV: Shadowbringers (2019)

ffxiv immediately got better the second 4.0 was over. even the patch quests instantly shot up in quality. it's not even funny. the lead up to shadowbringers was the most fun I had had with the game since a realm reborn, and all of the first was heartbreaking to go through even though I was spoiled on That Character's Identity.

the duty trust system (is that what it was called?) made dungeons much more fun. getting to go through hell with alphinaud alisaie and thancred made everything 10x better, even if it was a lot slower. the story, again, heartbreaking — ryne's arc in particular felt like being stabbed by thousands of little needles while trying to play. in the best way, of course. and amaurot... amaurot. getting to quote our favorite knight in there was my 8th umbral calamity.

shadowbringers also marks when a lot of your job's functionality is really unlocked, so doing the level 80 raid series was genuinely a ton of fun. and again the thousands of little needles. i cried at least 7 times during the main story.

overall: 85/100 kenki gauge.

Katana Zero (2019)

possibly my favorite game this year. the protagonist, zero (or as i like to call him, katana from zero,) ticked all the boxes for a character I'd be absolutely obsessed with. true enough, i fell in love. the fast-paced gameplay, the diegesis of gameplay elements which would typically go unquestioned, and the care that seeps through every dialogue choice all solidify katana zero as one of my favorite game experiences ever. I'll leave it at this, because I encourage everyone to at least give it a try.

overall: Yes, that should work.

Fire Emblem Engage (2023)

this is one of the few 2023 releases on this list that I didn't get on launch, because at the time I had relatively little interest in fire emblem as a series. then I made a lot of friends who enjoy it, and in october, bestie sen decided to buy it for me as an early birthday present. everyone say thank you sen.

considering this is my first fire emblem game, i have absolutely no deeper insight into how it matches up compared to the others, and plenty of people more eloquent than me have already talked about that. what I do know is that the gameplay was surprisingly fun as my first tactical rpg, and the story was passable. all the characters were appealing in one way or another, and I'm still mad I had to choose between marrying kagetsu or fogado. they're both my husbands at heart.

overall: I didn't internalize enough of this game to come up with a clever rating.

Fire Emblem Engage: Fell Xenologue (2023)

I was expecting the dlc to continue the main story, so I put it off until I had finished the base game. in hindsight, I regret it, because I'd love to have brought the winds and twins with me to fight their evil versions and alternate universe dad. the story was... alright. I really liked all the small battle interactions between fell characters and our party members which they would've known. I instantly recognized fogado in chapter 1 because I am in love with him by the way.

overall: i dont know. 1¾ dragonstones

with 2024 upon us, I'll probably be writing reviews for games as I play them. I'm trying to use tumblr more as a social platform instead of just reblogging. we'll see how that plays out. if you like any of these games (yes, even tears of the kingdom) please talk to me about them! that's all for now. look out for my mangled thoughts on SANABI and Nier: Automata next :)

[otaku-tactician]

Thank you for the tag ^^ I hope you are doing well.

LAST SONG

well this is embarrassing..

This was the last song I properly listened to. I skimmed the Obey Me anniversary song (forgot to listen to it properly lmaoo). This is the menu theme and classmating theme (where the mc and the heroines form star babies, but not explicitly.) for the game CONCEPTION II.

I used to be a real dating sims game fan as a teen, and I did quite enjoy this one. But I like this theme as it's very calming and relaxing, especially in this busy and difficult world. I actually bought the game SPECIFICALLY for this theme song!

Favorite Color

Blue. I LOVE blue. But I also love metals such as gold, silver and bronze. Pink is also a very nice color. Blue is calming to me, but rich metals are to die for.

Currently Watching

I am currently watching Canada's Drag Race VS The World, I am a huge fan of drag performers. But damn, the level of challenge and ability the performers have to show is just extremely high. It's a good show, but absolutely a pressure cooker that stretches the contestants to their very extremes.

I just finished the anime Tsundere Akuyaku Reijou Lisolette/ Going Live! Endou and Kobayashi bla bla. It was an absolute BANGER. I love the instrumental soundtrack, and the characters were very fun to watch.

I also watch The Dog House, a show about people rescuing dogs from shelters and rehoming them with a wide range of different clients. It's a great way to learn about what dogs are genuinely like; as I have a lot of catching up to do when it comes to understanding them.

Sweet/Savory/Spicy

I like SPICY food (sometimes). Sweet foods are brilliant but then for some reason, when I eat them they suddenly become too sweet... there's no consistency when it comes to taste and flavor for me. Some days spicy food is great, other days I can barely eat it.

Relationship Status

That's classified information.~

Current Obsession

Hmm... I'm unsure... My obsessions vary so much. Maybe this guy?

He is from the game Going Live! That has a free demo on itch.io. It's the harrowing story of a very vulnerable and sweet streamer whose life takes a very unfortunate turn. I got so upset with the endings that I made fanart like this

Last Thing I googled

"cu chulainn final ascension"

I'd love if I can print Cu's FA out onto paper and stick it on my wall. I just like seeing his face around. Kinda lifts up my day, I guess?

Thank you for tagging me, I've not got much to share sadly. As for who to tag next, I'm unsure. Wish you a great day.

✨🎀Nine people you'd like to get to know better🎀✨

Finally got time to sit down and answer this <3

I got tagged by @hellionil, thank you!

Last song

I've had this one on repeat the last couple of days cus the chorus is very Izocore and it makes my neurons activate

Favorite color

Pink! :D It used to be pastel blue but I took notice of how may pink items I started acquiring and went like "Yeah, I think I'm in denial, better to embrace the truth" sjkhsjk

Currently watching

I don't watch shows too often and when I do it's mostly with friends, the one we're watching right now it's Mashle: Magic and Muscles, it's pretty fun! But we watch like two episodes per month skjslks

I wanna check out Gundam 00 in the future too

Sweet/Savory/Spicy

When it comes to food I'd definitely take a pizza over desserts, I'm really craving a tasty soup these days 😞

I'm not good at handling spicy food, but there's some dishes I would run the risk for.... Like chilaquiles

Relationship status

Single and happy to stay that way 😌💚🤍🖤

Current obsession

These two little pests

It's been a year since I fixated on them and I'm really happy at how active I have become thanks to them, I think they're neat 💖

Last thing you googled

"Copy emoji" cus I'm writing this on the computer sjhsjjhsk

I'm tagging @otaku-tactician @novena-proxy @ickyonions @murasakist @b4nt14rn4 and @batman-mustache if you guys feel like doing it <3

[one-boring-person]

Hey!

I was wondering if I could request a Rambo x reader set in the first movie, if that’s alright, where the reader sees him walking through town and knows that Sheriff Teasle will try to bully him out of town so she pulls over and lies about them being old friends and then they go to eat or something? And the reader actually treats Rambo like a human being and thanks him for his service to his country when she finds out he is a veteran. Oh and could the reader be female please? Thank you very much! If not then that’s totally fine 😊

And I also wanted to say that your writing is amazing!!! And the reason I ended up watching Rambo in the first place 😆

Hope you have a great night/day!

Nfhfhhhf thank you so much! I'm so glad you like my stuff! And I got you into Rambo? Hell yeah!😂 I liked this request a lot, so I hope I've done it justice!

Respect Me.

John Rambo (First Blood) x reader

Warnings: mentions of war, mentions if death

Masterlist

For once, the truck sound system seems to be playing the tape flawlessly, lacking the usual stuttering and skipping it generally likes to include in the soft flow of music. Idly, I tap my fingers along with the gentle beat, the steering wheel moving easily in my grip as I guide the beaten pick-up truck out onto the main road, falling in line with the other traffic around me. The vehicle shudders a little as I change the gears, the old truck having never liked to do anything it should do, slowly moving into a more sustainable pace as I lean back in my seat, keeping my eyes trained on the road, with a half-eye kept on the sidewalk and nearby shops. A few Christmas decorations adorn the homely stores, though it's mostly left dull and bleak, as this town always has been. Once again, I find myself wishing I could just move away from here, start a new life somewhere else. 

Ahead of me, the traffic slows, allowing someone to turn into the main flow, giving me the time to glance out of the window, scanning the sidewalk a little way away. Oddly, a familiar police vehicle has pulled up just past a nearby junction, the driver leaning out of the window to talk to someone on the pavement, who I have yet to be able to see. The car is Sheriff Teasle's, the knowledge of which does not sit well with me - If he's pulled someone over, it's not for a good reason.

Checking my mirrors, I indicate off towards the sheriff, leaving the main flow as I follow the curb round, finally able to see who Teasle is talking to. Just as I feared, it looks as if he's pulled up a random person for yet another unfair interrogation. Frowning, I regard the solemn-looking man with interest, trying to ignore the part of me that finds his somewhat crooked features incredibly attractive, taking note of his obvious vagrancy: his hair is long and shaggy, clearly being left uncut for months on end, his dust-strewn parka and faded jeans showing signs of constant wear. From what I can see, Teasle is questioning him, most likely about the guy's purpose in Hope, though he doesn't seem particularly open to this encounter. Making up my mind, I cross my fingers and hope my plan now works.

Pulling up beside the two, I stop the car and climb out, plastering on a convincing grin as I go towards the dark-haired man, greeting him as I go.

"John! I didn't realise you were in town! You should've said something!" I exclaim, pleading the man with my eyes that he'll play along, though it's somewhat unlikely.

He gives me a shocked look, head snapping round at the sound of the name, hard eyes fixing on me with suspicion and hostility, the severity of the expression sending a shudder down my spine. Teasle also looks to me, frowning.

"And to think you were left to walk along here in the cold! Jeez, you really should have called or something, I could've picked you up!" I carry on, praying that he picks up the cue, "Oh, hello there, Sheriff, how are you?"

"Not bad, thanks." Teasle replies tightly, glancing between the man and I, "You know this guy?"

"Oh, yeah. John is a family friend." I lie, smiling brightly at the man in question.

"Yeah, it's been a long while, but I thought it was time to visit again." The man finally chips in, his husky voice stirring up butterflies in my stomach, "Wanted to keep my visit a surprise, though."

"Ah, well! You're here now, at least I can give you a lift back to mine." I offer him, ignoring Teasle's sceptical look.

Giving me a taut smile, which looks more like a grimace, the man steps towards me, shooting the Sheriff a glance as he goes. Doing the same, I smile pleasantly at Teasle, and say my goodbyes, climbing back into my car as my new passenger joins me, sliding cautiously into the seat beside me. Quickly, I pull back out into the traffic, heading away from Teasle as swiftly as possible. 

"Thank you for doing that." The dark-haired man murmurs after a moment, his hands clenching around his knees as he forces himself to look out of the windscreen. 

"No problem. Teasle's an ass at the best of times, best just to stay away from him." I muse, "Do you want something to eat? There's a good place just down the road from here." 

Turning to face me, the man frowns and watches my face, as if for signs of deceit, his quiet nature giving me the impression that he's probably quite acclimatised to being treated as such. 

"How do you know my name?" He eventually asks, voice quiet.

Now it's my turn to frown as I glance across at him.

"I don't." 

"You called me John earlier. How did you know that's my name?" 

Surprised, I double take, now realising how sketchy that must look.

"Your name is John? I had no idea! That's a lucky coincidence, clears up confusion later." I chuckle dryly, "Honestly, I picked the first name that came to mind. I had no idea that it's your actual name."

He watches me for a second longer, eventually appearing happy with my response, looking away again.

"What's your name?" He asks me after a further minute.

"Me? I'm (Y/n). (Y/n) (Y/l/n)."

"John Rambo." John nods, flicking some hair from his face, "And if you're still offering, I'd like to get something to eat, please."

"Of course." 

Pulling up to the diner, I park the car, climbing out as I check the cash I have on me, deeming it enough for two decent meals and some drinks, hoping that it won't be too busy at this time of the day. John follows me, leaving his bedroll in the car as we walk into the small restaurant, finding a seat at one of the window booths, sitting opposite each other. He's quiet, scanning the room as soon as he's sat down, body stiff as he unzips his parka, revealing a red woolen jumper underneath. What strikes me most, however, (apart from the obvious planes of rippling muscle) are the silver dog tags hanging around his neck, jingling every so often as he moves. 

A waiter comes over to us, handing us menus with a false smile, leaving us alone together again until we've ordered drinks, at which point he returns with the beverages. Stepping away again, John and I are left with some privacy. At this moment, I take a breath and ask him the one question on my mind.

"If you don't mind me asking, are you a soldier?" 

John visibly stiffens, eyes hardening a little.

"I was." Is all he says, tone flat.

"Did you serve in Vietnam?" I ask, unable to stop myself as my curiosity gets the better of me.

Once again, John seems reluctant to answer, and instantly starts to glance around, clearly watching for an escape route.

"Yeah." He affirms, gaze returning to me.

Shock fills me at this: I'd heard horrible things about the Vietnam War, about how the soldiers (on both sides) faced terrifying situations that I'd never dream of, my heart stuttering at this admonition. 

"Really? That's...wow, that's…" I go to say something, finding myself speechless as I stare at the man before me, admiring him now in a totally new light, "God, you must be a strong person."

He blinks.

"Huh?"

"Well, you've done what I'd never be able to do, you've faced deadly situations, you've probably been in harrowing conditions and fights, I'd never have the strength to do what you did. Very few people do, so you must be a very strong person, mentally." I tell him, still in shock, "You definitely did the country proud, and I respect you for everything you've done. Thank you for that."

He stares at me in shock, eyes wide, lips parted.

"You...What?" Is all he manages, voice hitching.

"I respect you, and admire your bravery. You're a better person than any of the rest of us ever could be." I repeat, smiling gently at him.

For a long moment, he doesn't say anything, his expression remaining as it is, his body tense as he processes what I've said, clearly not quite believing me.

"You...respect me?" He stammers, quietly.

"I do." I nod, taking a sip of my soda.

"Thank you." John murmurs, pulling a face as he looks away, "You wouldn't be saying that if you knew what kinda things I've done."

"What you did isn't relevant to me, only that you served the country, and you did it with bravery, so for that, you have my respect." I reassure him, telling him the truth. 

John stays silent this time, apparently too overcome for words.

"Do you...do you need somewhere to stay?" I finally break the silence that has descended on us, tapping a rhythm out onto the table.

"No, but I don't want to inconvenience you any more than I already have, so don't worry about it. I'll figure something out." The veteran shrugs, still a little taken aback.

"You're not inconveniencing me, I wouldn't ask if you were. I have space in my house if you want to take it." I offer him, once again smiling across at him. 

For the first time, John smiles at me, his features loosening as the expression crosses his face.

"I'll take it."

Chapter 5: A Cozy Night in

   “Babes, my dad just left, get the fuckin’ tequila,” Remy said into his phone as he quickly headed out the door and started jogging to Virgil’s house.

   “Yes, I was hoping he would!” Virgil hissed. “Do you like pina coladas?” Virgil sang.

   “And getting caught in the rain!” Remy could hear on the other end of the line, muffled.

   “That’s rum, babe, I don’t think you even have half a brain,” Remy chuckled.

   “Wastin’ away again in margaritaville!” Virgil amended his song choice.

   “Searchin’ for my lost shaker of salt!” Remus barked more than sang in the background.

   “Closer, but that song is garbage. I’ll be right over, mix me something strong, I have had a week!” Remy said emphatically.

   “Mood,” Virgil said plainly and Remy hung up, picking up the pace to get to Virgil’s.

—

   “Remy!” Virgil and Remus cheered as Remy burst into the house.

   “Booze me!” Remy slid into the kitchen and right into one of Remus’s signature bear hugs. Virgil was holding a cup out for Remy when he was released, feeling a little light-headed from Remus’s mauling. Remy slammed the drink with a satisfied smile despite the foul taste.

   “I’ma order pizza, we ran out a few days ago. What do you want, Rem?” Remus asked, pulling out his phone.

   “Breadsticks, cinnamon sticks, pizza sticks, garlic sticks. Every stick,” Remy supplied with a nod.

   “I’ll get every stick ever, but what pizza do you want?” Remus laughed.

   “Extra cheese, chicken, bacon, peppers, olives” Remy said after a moment of consideration.

   “Hawaiian with bacon and sausage,” Virgil requested. “And lava cakes,” Virgil added, tilting his head.

   “Are you seriously going to spend like seventy bucks on pizza?” Remy rolled his eyes.

   “Not including tip! I know the family pizza login, it’s on my parents. I’m not even dipping into my allowance,” Remus smirked.

   “Aren’t you worried you’ll get in trouble?” Remy asked incredulously.

   “Who cares?” Remus rolled his eyes. “They’re shit at passwords, I’ll figure out the new one when they change it if they even notice,” Remus shrugged. “You can have leftovers to take home. We have once of those cool yeti lunch boxes and some ice packs, it’ll last 3 days under your bed and you can collapse it and sneak it back to school easily on Monday,” Remus explained his food plan for Remy.

   “Thanks, babe,” Remy took a sip of his drink, trying to hide how touched he felt. But Remus smirked knowingly.

   “Love you, too,” Remus blew Remy a kiss. Remy huffed and sat down on at the kitchen table.

   “Ring of Fire?” Virgil offered, pulling a ridiculous plastic chalice out of a cabinet.

   “Fuck yeah,” Remy said, holding up his drink.

   “Oh, they have 7-up, we can make poor man’s marg’s,” Remus said, clicking around in the app.

   “I forgot 7-up was a thing. I can’t remember when I last saw it,” Remy mused, pulling the deck of cards into a large circle in the middle of the table.

   “Get some orange soda and coke, too, we can save money on grocery day,” Virgil said, placing the cup reverently in the middle of the ring of cards on the table.

   “They have Dr. Pepper, not Coke,” Remus supplied. “Must be some brand deal,” Remus pursed his lips.

   “Heathens,” Virgil hissed.

   “Hey, I like Dr. Pepper,” Remy shot, scowling at Virgil.

   “It’s the south, if you don’t have coke you die,” Virgil crossed his arms. “It’s rum and coke or jack and coke, not Dr. Pepper and anything,” Virgil said, huffing.

   “Dr. Pepper’s pretty good with rum,” Remus shrugged. “It’s not like we have a choice,”

   “True. Double the dessert sticks if we’re getting DP,” Virgil sat at the table with his drink. Remus wiggled his eyebrows at Virgil, and they broke out laughing.

   “So what you’re saying is you need double the sticks for DP?” Remus grinned widely, lifting his eyebrow a few times.

   “That is exactly what I am implying, my good fellow,” Virgil wiggled his eyebrows right back at him.

   “You guys are fucking dorks,” Remy rolled his eyes humorously. “Come on, order your pizza porn so we can play,” Virgil and Remus laughed at that, but Remus diligently clicked through the menus and made the order. He sat dramatically at the table and raised his cup. The other two joined him.

   “Dear drinking gods, get us real nice and fucked up,” Remus said solemnly.

   “Pretty please,” Remy and Virgil chimed in right after him and they all bumped cups. Remy pulled out a jack from the pile.

   “Drink every time somebody cusses,” Remy suggested right away.

   “Oh, good one,” Remus smirked. He drew a 7 and shouted “Heaven!” Right away, and everyone pointed straight up. Remy was last and happily took a drink. Virgil drew a king and poured some of his drink into the chalice in the center. Remy drew a card.

   “Two. Remus,” Remy supplied and Remus took a drink. Remus drew.

   “Eight. Remy’s my mate,” Remus smiled.

   “Aw, babe,” Remy cooed, fluttering his eyelashes at Remus.

   “Only the best getting faced for you, sugar,” Remus blew Remy a kiss, and Virgil reached out to intercept it and ‘spiked it’ into the king’s cup with a satisfied smirk.

   “Oh my god, somebody’s gotta drink Remus’s kiss, the stakes have never been higher!” Remy laughed while Virgil drew a card. He held up the 9 and faced them.

   “Pizza,” Virgil smirked.

   “Treatza. You know, from lunchables?” Remy provided.

   “Nice,” Virgil nodded, impressed.

   “Podgorica,” Remus smiled smugly.

   “What?” Remy and Virgil looked to Remus in confusion.

   “It’s the capital of Montenegro,” Remus smirked. “I knew you’d pull this shit after we banned orange,”

   “Shit,” Virgil drank.

   “Cussing!” Remy shouted and everybody took a drink, Virgil taking a second one.

—

   “I went inside to pee for like three minutes, you fuckheads, how are you already on the roof?” Remy laughed, looking up to Virgil and Remus playing pattycake on the roof.

   “We’re spry,” Virgil offered and Remus stopped, shifting to a stable angle in the roof and holding down his arms. Remy held up his arms and Remus pulled him up, swatting his butt as he clambered up on to the roof.

   “Remy,” Virgil cheerily drawled and held open his arms, pulling Remy in for a long hug. “I missed you,” He slurred.

   “It was harrowing, I’m sure, being away from my shimmering presence,” Remy rolled his eyes. “Let’s put on a jam,” Remy said, pulling out his phone from under Virgil’s arms wrapped around him. Remy put on some music he liked and slid it back in the front pocket of his jeans, speaker end up. “It’s kinda hot out for clingin’ on to me like this, babe,” Remy said.

   “Way ahead of you!” Remus peeled off his shirt and threw it down to the patio.

   “You freakin’ nudist,” Virgil rolled his eyes and let Remy go. Then Remy yanked off his shirt and threw it over Virgil’s head to Remus, who smacked it down to the patio before it hit the roof. Remy and Remus stared at Virgil expectantly. Virgil dramatically rolled his eyes and dropped his shoulders, giving in and throwing his shirt at Remus who spiked it down on top of his.

   Remy stood up carefully and climbed up to the peak of the roof, standing on either side of the pitch and dancing to the music from his pocket.

   “Did you pick dark psytrance just for me, you flirt?” Virgil laughed, crawling up to sit on the pitch and danced along with him while staying seated.

   “I picked it for me, but you can listen,” Remy winked and gyrated to the beat. Virgil blushed wildly and Remus laughed, joining them at the top of the roof and dancing with his friends.

—

   “Virgil, every time you pick the movie you pick absolute garbage,” Remy groaned, leaning back on the couch while Virgil typed in his choice.

   “I’m down for anything titled ‘Legend of the Ooze’,” Remus laughed.

   “Oh, god, those creepy turtle suits from the 90s?” Remy drawled as Virgil leaned back into him to cuddle.

   “I watched the other one where they go back in time to feudal Japan and honestly after a bit you don’t notice the creepy suits, I swear. Otherwise I wouldn’t watch it, either,” Virgil defended his choice.

   “What in the world are mutant turtles doing in feudal Japan?” Remy rolled his eyes, wrapping his arms around Virgil. Remus came back with a bowl of popcorn and scooted the table closer to put it down.

   “Move, fuckers,” Remus said and Remy shifted so that Remus could sit down, pulling the both of them into his arms.

   “Um, I don’t remember. I had pretty bad insomnia when I rented it. They flew kites. And the samurai that came to 90s New York played hockey with Casey Jones,” Virgil offered with a little shrug.

   “That sounds pretty killer, honestly,” Remus chuckled. “I wanna play hockey with Casey Jones and 17th-century swordsman,” Remus raised his eyebrows and nodded like it impressed him.

   “Okay, yeah, I’d watch that,” Remy conceded.

   “Move a ‘lil, lemme shift my leg,” Remus grunted.

   “Just lay back and we’ll both lay on you, we’ll fit,” Remy laughed.

   “Double drunk hugs? Deal,” Remus smiled, leaning back against the couch arm. Remy laid against the back of the couch and Virgil tucked himself under Remy’s arm, holding the popcorn bowl so everyone can reach it. They watched in silence for a little while, other than occasional drunken giggles at the TV and the sounds of munching popcorn.

   “Okay, I just realized the suits don’t creep me out anymore. You’re right,” Remy admitted.

   “Told you. Is it just me or is Casey Jones kind of weirdly cute when he’s decked out for sports murder?” Virgil laughed as he asked.

   “I think you’re just kinky, V,” Remy laughed and grabbed a handful of popcorn.

   “I don’t wanna fuck him, I just wanna watch him do sports murder,” Virgil rolled his eyes.

   “I think I’d be willing to watch anybody sports murder ninjas, it's badass,” Remus added, sounding very interested.

   “So Remus is the kinky one,” Remy chuckled.

   “I don’t think anybody ever questioned that,” Virgil munched on a handful of popcorn.

   “If I’m being roasted, I’m throwing both of you in the neighbor’s pool,” Remus sang cheerily.

   “We’re not roasting you, Ream, we’re just agreeing that your cyptid kink is probably kinkier than Casey Jones,” Virgil said. 

   “Oh, yeah, that’s fair,” Remus laughed. “The character exemplifies the sports murder kink, but nothing is kinkier than slenderman porn,”

—

   “Hey, V, wake up,” Remy shook Virgil gently. “You picked the movie, and you slept through the ending!”

   “I was warm,” Virgil grumbled, shifting off of Remus and sitting on the floor with a wide yawn. “Time to go?” Virgil asked sadly.

   “Yeah, time to go. If dad goes out this weekend I’ll come over, hon,” Remy said consolingly, though Remy was probably more bitter about leaving than anyone else.

   “Okay,” Virgil grumbled, getting up and hugging Remy tightly after he crawled off the couch.

   “Babe, we’ve been cuddling for like two hours,” Remy rolled his eyes as he reached up to hug Virgil back.

   “I wasn’t awake for all of it. Lemme say goodbye, you ass,” Virgil grumbled into his chest. Remy chuckled and pat the top of Virgil’s head before Remus enveloped the both of them in his arms.

   “We’ll miss you bud. Text us anything you want from the store,” Remus said softly. “Let’s get your pizza lunch box packed before you go,” He smiled and motioned with his head towards the kitchen.

   “Oh, shit, yes, pizza for breakfast,” Remy hissed as Remus let go and all three headed to the kitchen.

Episode 6

- The final one

- The opening was cryptic. I assume it'll make sense later?

- So this is the same as Episode 5, I think, but Kadae stayed with him instead of Menu. He's currently fucking Kadae, in the storage room, with the bandages on his hands.

- Wait no, he's fucking the girl from the opening, who just said something about saviour... Is the strategy girls backstory?

- He came and immediately black out.

- Now he's awake in the storage room, with the bandaged hands, next to strategy girl. I think this is gonna talk about her backstory

- "Euphoria, the mother of the saviour is... Byakuya Rinne!?" Oh wow, strategy girls backstory

- The mastermind is Menu again.

- Oh, all of a sudden Mr. Fucks a lot is too performance shy to rape a girl.

- Yeah when you're just by yourself it's dicks up all the way but when it actually counts for something suddenly you can't do it

- How is Menu over here like "wow, he'd fuck a friend to save you" when Strategy girl literally said it was alright and he could do it if it meant keeping Key-bitch safe?? I mean, he's a bad person, but that's not because of this incident. He's doing what you asked.

- This is the first time he's ever shown even a shred of doubt about cumming inside.

- So far, this episode has been really unfair to Dick dude. Usually he's terrible but so far he's clearly uncomfortable raping a friend, didn't want to cum inside her, didn't want to see her in pain. This is not the beast who's been in every other episode. Menu needs to leave him alone

- Guys in dark cloaks just showed up ominously chanting?

- They took down the dudes in the school, saved key-bitch and apprehended Menu. I'm shook

- They've crowned strategy girl the??? Idk. Queen? Saviour?

- So she really is in a cult

- I fucking knew it.

- They're burning rings into Menu and then fucking her to,, clear her of her sins?

- The blood's back.

- Dick dude is great in this one. He called out strategy girl's "purification ritual" for literally just being abuse. It's 11 minutes in and he's only fucked once (well, twice if you count the opening but that was separate)

- So far he's alright.

- Dick dude is gonna father the saviour. Good for him I guess.

- THIS IS SO FUCKED UP? STRATEGY GIRLS MUM FUCKED DICK DUDE AS A CHILD, GAVE BIRTH TO STRATEGY GIRL WHO IS NOW ALSO FUCKING DICK DUDE

- I'm terrified of this girl.

- Ngl I've never seen male rape in hentai, so I'm kinda proud that there's some equality here. Obviously I would prefer to have no rape at all in this but,,, you can't have it all I guess.

- Why is she whipping people? We shall never know.

- "This is fucked up." I'm glad you can see that, dick dude.

- Wait fuck he's enjoying it. He's accepted it. No I though this was the one time he'd be at least a little bit normal.

- I wonder if this guy ever gets tired of being hard?

- He's escaping, he's taking cult girl to the outside world.

- She's acting slightly more normal now that she's outside.

- She's realised that she didn't need to give birth to the saviour- she was the saviour. ( I think) and now they're going to paradise

- Paradise is a lie, and now she's giving birth.

- It's a girl.

- She's realised that her life is a waste. She wasn't saviour, she didn't give birth to the saviour, she's just,,, fucking mental.

- This was,, a harrowing ending.

- Dick dude and cult girl grew up and raised their child together though. And never again talked about how they were related.

- I keep thinking it's gonna end but no now the cloak people are back, lead by teacher and Rika

- okay now it's ended.

- I am.... So confused

- WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT.

- I DON'T UNDERSTAND THAT WAS SO WEIRD??

- I DON'T GET IT.

- WHAT THE FUCK

- WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK??

Euphoria

I accidentally woke up two hours later than planned so let’s get right into it.
