are. are you telling me that if the romanced mage warden dies and alistair is king, he deadass stares greagoir down over her dead body and grants the circle of ferelden its autonomy after ordering it rebuilt somewhere safer. first you have to deliberately leave him behind so he won't die for you and then he does that for you once you're gone, even when you're broken up??? absolute and literal king behaviour of the highest order????? the actions speak louder than words of it all??????? I think I hauve covid

i’ve always wondered what worst logan thinks of main logan. is he jealous at all of how revered he was? i mean what do you even think of the guy that’s considered the “best version” of you when you’re seen as the worst.

Smile and wave tactic doesn’t seem to work on your new coworker, Darling, gotta come up with something else

I’m not yet that far into the game to know everything about these guys and their shared history but a scene where quirky yet manipulative scientist is unsuccessfully trying to befriend a field agent whose suspiciousness helps him survive seemed like a funny idea to me

i feel so much about delta you guys

red vs blue really looked at me and said here is our logic fragment. this is the logic man. he feels logic. he has a strong survival drive. but also he loved york enough to be willing to die with him.

sigma wanted so fucking bad to be human, to be whole, to chase what they came from and what they were. that he totally missed the fact that delta fucking made it. Delta was more than the Logic Fragment. He had his own bonds, his own wants, his own drive because of his relationship with York.

And in his attempt to become whole again, Sigma... completely undermined that. Made delta into the Logic Fragment again. just another fragment, not a person of his own.

do you ever think about how if sigma had slowed down and really tried to work with maine, that maybe things could have gone so so differently?

i think about that.

Also ngl I kinda love the concept of Debling courting Penelope and Colin getting jealous because of it, not because I ship it (he’s barely a character) or because I’m part of the crowd that wants to see Colin ~suffer (though I’m not opposed to seeing him dramatically yearn), but because the reason Penelope specifically is going after this vegan man is so fascinating to me. Like, she obviously doesn’t love him. But she will marry him to protect LW… she’ll marry him to please Portia, that’s so funny.

Girl’s so desperate to escape her awful family life while at the same time keeping her secret, but she also wants her mother’s approval. And she’s so caught up in that toxic mindset that she completely misses the guy she’s been in love with since childhood making heart eyes at her from across the ballroom.

Pen only has her parents’ terrible marriage as a frame of reference, so she probably thinks it’s a bonus if her future husband is much older than her because that could make her a young widow. He’ll leave the country for the majority of the year to fuck off to Antarctica? Oh to be left alone by your own life partner!!!

Meanwhile Portia is enthusiastically nodding behind Penelope like yes, perhaps he’ll die at sea, and neither of them think there’s anything wrong with this outlook in life.

Hilarious.

Anyways on the topic of body positivity I think we need to kill the people on the internet who still go around pushing the idea that having a neck beard is a sign of something inherently negative. Whether it be misogyny or unhygienic, we need to start treating it neutrally like we should with any body or facial hair.

I'm not going to hate the hair I'm growing on myself just because some fatphobic fucks decided to make a stereotype out of it over a decade ago. I went on T, I fought hard for the facial hair I have, and I'm not going to make myself hate it just cause some stupid motherfuckers keep telling me I "have to" for whatever dumbass reason.

I love my neck beard. I love the hair that grows between my chin and neck. It makes me look like an actual DUDE and is fun to stim with. I love the hair I've fought so hard for and I'm not gonna act ironic about it.

this weeks episode of dungeon meshi was Laios experiencing ableism and then just starting to throw punches.

made some progress in Tactics Ogre (but not a lot I'm still in ch1 despite clearing multiple maps? wild)--have a better feel for the mechanics, and they aren't so bad to navigate as I first thought.

The "battles and cutscenes ONLY" pacing is wild, like I don't have time to chat with any of the other characters to get a sense for how they feel about shit, which like, I know this is a remaster of a PSP game, and that "getting to chat w/ your units" is a more recent trend in srpgs, but it's still like damn okay, we're just moving right along then (kinda nostalgic feeling though)

honestly really enjoying it a lot so far though. The battle mechanics are fun (similar to TriStrat w/ needing to take weather, elevation, positioning, etc. into account, but SIGNIFICANTLY more forgiving than TriStrat battles which always felt a bit more challenging to me compared to other srpgs I've played); and I'm really enjoying the characters and story so far...although I do wish for like, an in-game atlas or something so I can keep country names and stuff straight (I did remember it was originally a PSP game though, which meant it had to have been released with a physical manual, and lo and behold I did find a PDF of said game manual and it contains a bit of the worldbuilding/setting info I've been very ??? about so, thank goodness for PDFs of old game manuals)

so yea, fun game so far!

re: last post, but yeah I think there is a way, unintended by the game for sure but still not canon-breaking, to understand TP Ganondorf the very same way we understand WW Ganondorf post mental breakdown, and suddenly a loooot of things start to make a horrible kind of sense

There is a way to make TP Ganondorf, not only not stupidly written, but also utterly heartwrenching

AGAIN YES it's not what the game intended, but literally except for maybe (maybe!!!) Wind Waker, and that reading is being semi-actively dismantled by Nintendo at every turn ever since that happened, when the hell has any zelda game given that dude any kind of grace

Hi I'm the one who requested the Jancy caregiver and tbh the fact that Rosé and Grandma were already there is what gave me the courage to send mine <3 so thank you! And you're so right about both of them btw

I'M SO GLAD I SENT THOSE REQUESTS IN!!!!!!!! Just knowing there's another Agere Drawtective out there brings me so much joy <3

And no one asked but here's the full rundown on my Drawtectives Agere headcanons:

Rosé was the one who got them all into it and explained it to them. She's a Younger Teen/Big Sister regressor, specifically around 14 years old most times. She likes to treat York as a baby brother when she's regressed and do his hair and nails, and he just lets her. She doesn't really need a caregiver and did fine on her own for years, until she met Jancy and completely changed her mind she loves her cranky aloof mom <3

York doesn't get it but he doesn't need to get it to engage with Agere. He himself probably qualifies as a Little Brother Dreamer. He doesn't mentally regress, but he likes acting as Rosé's baby brother and finds a lot of comfort in not being expected to talk or read when she's regressed. He's yet to make the connection between finding comfort in these activities and missing his real older brother.

Grendan falls into that grey area between Pet Regressors and Therian/Otherkin types. She's not a puppy like most Pet Regressors, he's more of an Old Dog type. The kinda dog that just lays there while you poke at it and tie it's fur in ponytails, the perfect babysitter type dog. So Grenda is both a Therian Companion Caregiver and a Pet Regressor at the same time.

The three of them only ever regress together, usually Rosé is the trigger, getting caught up in old habits or silly teen girly things and dragging the other two in with her. Their favorite place to regress is their shared apartment and Jancy's office (when Rosé doesn't have work to be doing of course)

Jancy is super observant and obviously knows the difference when the trio have regressed, but she barely treats them any different. She finds Rosé likes praise and showing off York, so she'll applaud at whatever weird hairstyle she's done for him and compliment her work, but the other two are perfectly fine with the normal way she speaks to them. Probably because Jancy is the type to speak to a baby and a dog like one would a police officer at a crime scene.

Eugene is the only one I can't figure out, I feel like he'd get the most out of regression, and sense he's their son I feel like the crew caregiving for a really tiny Genie would be very cute, but I dunno it doesn't click in my head. Maybe he just doesn't know about Agere yet, or that it happens to him. He's just unaware about himself in a lot of aspects.

I think Caregiver Felix would be very cute though...
