Fledgling Dartonia: Doesn't help when Viago walks by and casually tosses a perfect mark while not even looking. Fledgling Timetri: He was looking—straight into my eyes. Made me want to get it right.

Viago showing off for the fledglings is kind of a hilarious mental image, though. The whole concept of tossing the mark is a little funny in a charming sort of way (for people who missed what that is the Crows apparently have specially made paint ball things that if thrown exactly right will leave the Crows' symbol on whatever they're tossed at because it's more efficient and dramatic than painting it or having a simpler icon I guess), but the image of Viago tossing a perfect one while looking a fledgling dead in the eye is delightful.

NOW YOU SEE ME (2013)

[mania-sama]

You and Rosa (we're all three mutually fans of King-Highway) tboth keep bringing up All for the Game, I feel like I should like, ACTUALLY read it.

I have a tab open on my phone but I keep procrastinating 🙃

All for the Game is... wow. How do I even describe it?

When people talk about this book series, they will often say that it's bad and they would never recommend it to other people, but that it stole their hearts and souls. I understand where they're coming from, but I don't necessarily agree with them. The book series itself does have pitfalls and horrific narrative choices, but I wouldn't say it's overall bad or even mediocre. It's good. It wouldn't have such a rabid fanbase if it was... bad. It reads somewhat like fanfic, and given the triggering material inside, it wouldn't be so bad to treat it like fanfic.

If you already have the tab open to read it, then I'm sure you have already been warned about the triggers in the book series. This is mainly why people refuse to recommend AFTG to others. It's a lot. Every. single. page. you get punched in the face with a new horrific scene or thought or backstory. It's honestly astounding and a huge part of what makes it so enjoyable. There is NEVER a dull moment. ALL of the characters are traumatized. And yes, it does get worse before it gets better.

The best part of the book series is that the main character, Neil, does not know when to shut the fuck up. He shoots off at the mouth against his better judgment at every given opportunity, and it's glorious every single time. He's the real seller of the series, which is good since he's the main character. When you finish, you'll come away with Neil "I have a bit of an attitude problem" Josten nestled into your heart like a fatal case of tapeworm. He never gives you a second to stop and think; he's always moving, always running, and always dragging the reader along for the ride.

This is all to say: read it. It's so fun and enjoyable and hilarious. It was written in 2013 by a teenager as a fruitful passion project and it shows, but I'd argue that's what makes it good and unique. It's entirely, one-hundred percent it's own. And it's so, so entertaining.

Also, canonically LGBTQ+. The gays win this one!

I'm fully in Inklings Challenge idea-gathering mode and I'd forgotten how great it is. I just get to go through my day gathering potential story sparks. Anything could become a story. I don't need to stress over choosing one or committing to one because I don't know which genre I'm writing yet. I can build a basic concept, and then if it turns out it captures my attention come October, I've got a well of ideas I can draw from and add onto it. I'm just finding Legos to put in my toybox. It's so fun.

Gonna ramble a bit bout Octopath Traveler II because I think that it's both funny and interesting how different yours and potentially the traveler's understanding about this "Shadow" that seems to haunt 4 of the narratives can be depending on what comes first.

Note: I Have not finished Agnea's Chapter 5, it is literally the last thing I have before I presume the thing the Crossed Paths have been leading up to kick in.

And of course: Spoilers below just in case

So, ya see, I had initially planned to save Hikari's CH5 for last, since in Octo 1 I started with Olberic and ended with his last chapter. But then I learned the Conjurer class is locked behind completing it soooo.

My journey so far was Do all of CH 1 Do the Western CH2s Do the Eastern CH2s Do everything in Welgrove (Hikari, Partitio, Throne) Do two of the chapters in Stormhail (Hikari, Ochette) Do Hikari's last Chapter

And then amble about doing what I felt like next. Which went as follows:

Parti's Last Chapter -> Ochette's Last Chapter -> Castti's CH3 -> Osvald's CH4 -> Throne's CH4 Father Route -> Osvald's Last Chapter -> Castti's Last Chapter -> Temenos' Stormhail Route -> Throne's Last Chapter -> Temenos' Last Chapter -> All Crossed Paths as they became available -> Agnea.

4 of those tales have you goin up against the shadow in some form, 5 if I'm counting Castti and Ochette's Crossed Paths.

Now, Imagine, if you will, if you saved Hikari's Final Chapter for last.

You end up dragging the guy into close contact with the very thing that's haunting his veins. The Scarlett Moon and the creature of the Sorrowful Moon, Harvey and the Sorrowful Golem, Harvey and his concentrated blasts of his "One True Magic", Kaldena becoming consumed by the Shadow like Mugen would/did.

How would that be affecting him? Does each brush with the shadow call the curse even closer to the forefront? Does the Scarlet Moon test his resolve, determination, and strength to keep his blade sheathed and unbloodied?

Does he feel the call of the Shadow when Kaldena is consumed by it?

Of course, each triumph over this could instill in Hikari some faith that, Yes, the Shadow can be overcome. Yes you can beat it, Yes, you can. So when you finally go up against Mugen, he's got all that behind him.

... But what if you do his last chapter first?

Hikari, going up against his Shadow for the final time, doesn't have all that build up behind it, no, but he's still got the words of his friends (and I'm including fellow travelers) to bolster his resolve. He finds the Light himself.

So Mugen ends up being the party's first true blue brush with that Shadow. And, at the time, what they think is their ONLY brush with it.

And then the Scarlet Moon comes, and Ochette smells the same pungent scent along with the underlying familiar one from years ago.

And then they meet Harvey for the first time. And then they go up against his Shadow True Magic. AND THEN KALDENA PULLS THE SAME MISTAKE MUGEN DID-

That sequence events turns this into "Okay. We know the Shadow can be beaten. We've seen Hikari do it. BUT WHAT IN THE HELLS IS THIS THING?!"

Scarlet Moon: So it's a corrupting force.

Harvey: It's too powerful to be controlled by 1 man, but it does have it's opposite.

Kaldena: Please don't do that, we've seen what happens 3 times over now ARE YOU KIDDING ME WOMAN WTF-

It's not just the Shadow they're comparing notes on either at this point. It's the Light that keeps coming to their aid.

Hikari's Latent power changes to Radiance, Ochette (and the party I presume) are saved by the First Flame, Osvald kamehamehas a colourful laser light now, Temenos has an explosion of light skill now.

Light always seems to come to their aid whenever they go up against the Shadow.

And it all starts with Hikari as well.

I just realized you can have other blogs under the one you first made

I found out because I saw your other side blogs😭 I feel like my eyes skipped over your bio saying this is your side blog

because of you I made two more blogs, one for cod fics and one for marvel BSJAJAJ

thankyou🫶

Yessss side blog supremacy!!!

I've had many in my time here on tumblr, because my main blog has gone through so many fandom changes already 😂 its nice to have ones solely dedicated to just one thing.

The only downside is you can't currently send asks as a side blog, but they finally added that you can reply as your side blog last year. Love when they did that because my side blogs are vastly more popular than my main blog 😂

I had I think eight blogs total at one point, but now I'm down to five counting my main. This one, my Star Wars blog, my monster blog, and then one I just reblog all the fics I want to read someday so they don't clog up my likes 😂

Be free and make as many side blogs as you want ✨️
