i.

“Y/N!”

Jisung dropped his navy duffle bag onto the moist concrete. As you stood in Chan’s driveway, he ran towards you, giving you a bear crushing hug when you least expected it. You blushed heavily when you noticed how everyone stopped whatever they were doing to look at the scene in front of them. Chan stopped loading everyone’s belongings into the trunk of his white Mercedes SUV. On the other hand, Jisung’s sudden outburst caused Changbin to trip on the medium sized cooler carrying supplies of perishable foods by the van. Changbin groaned in pain while Chan chuckled at Jisung’s whipped state. Then, Chan left the scene to check for anything he could’ve forgotten in his house.

Jisung pulled away with a soft smile and stared at you with the most smitten expression you’ve ever seen from him. When he realized how red your cheeks were, he brought his hand to the top of your head, ruffling your hair gently. “I’ve missed you.”

You tried to cool down from your flustered state and looked away. When Jisung noticed you avoiding eye contact, he reached for your hands. Giving them a small squeeze, he asked in a teasing voice, “I guess you didn’t miss me?”

“I literally saw you two days ago, but yes, I missed you too.”

“Good,” he said. He let go of your hand to pick up your things before heading to his stranded duffle bag. After stuffing them into Chan’s trunk, Changbin made him load the rest of the supplies. When Jisung started complaining, Changbin showed him the small bruise forming on his left kneecap and threatened to strangle Jisung in his sleep. You laughed but helped Jisung even though he told you to wait inside the car.

When you two were finished, another car pulled up from behind. Jisung accidentally slammed the trunk, earning a glare from Chan. The driver parked behind Chan’s SUV rolled down their window. Peeking his head outside, Woojin waved to everyone. “Are you guys ready?” Woojin asked.

“Heyyy Woojin! Yeah, we’re good,” you gave him an okay symbol.

In his car, you saw his girlfriend sitting on the passenger side. You brightly waved to her and she returned the gesture in a heartbeat. Woojin’s girlfriend is really sweet and funny, but the only problem was that you forgot her name. This was your second time seeing her, but you made a promise to ask Jisung about her during the car ride.

“Alright! Let’s go before LA traffic hits, guys,” Chan hopped in the car before anyone else did.

“Sit next to me,” he nudged your elbow.

“I was going to anyway.”

Jisung slipped into the back of the SUV first, waiting for you as you reached into the connected trunk for a fuzzy blanket. Before putting on his seatbelt, he shuffled in his seat to make himself comfortable. When he covered his hair with his mustard hood, you quickly tied the cords below his chin, leaving an opening wide enough for his nose to peek out. Jisung huffed, then positioned you into a small headlock, giving you a noogie.

You both laughed at each other’s playful gestures, stopping when the two boys sitting in front obnoxiously coughed. Chan briefly looked at everyone before asking, “We’re all good to go right? No one needs to use the restroom? Nobody left anything inside the house?”

Everyone shook their heads, and Chan held a thumbs up. He pulled out of the driveway, making sure to close the garage door when he entered the street.

“Whoa, I feel like my ears are going to pop,” he mumbled into your hair.

Jisung hugged you closer to him, instantly knocking out the second his head leaned onto yours. He treated you like a pillow, nuzzling closer from time to time. The car ride to Lake Arrowhead was taking longer than usual. Normally, it would take around two hours to get there, but an accident occurred halfway into the road trip. It caused traffic to stop for at least half an hour. You were finally out of the freeway, but it was time to drive through the mountains. As Chan drove further, the altitude increased, exerting pressure onto everyone’s ears.

You yawned to relieve your ears from the pressure and carefully reached for Jisung’s phone. It was great that your boyfriend had Spotify premium. That way, you could listen to music whenever there was no cellular reception. Also, you had unlimited skips. Jisung lazily removed the EarPod from his right ear, handing it to you. He must’ve woken from your constant skipping.

“Here, knock yourself out,” he said before dozing off again.

ii.

“It’s snowing!” Jisung exclaimed in awe.

Once you arrived at your destination, you sighed in relief and bolted out of the SUV. If you didn’t use the restroom in the next few minutes, your bladder was going to explode. When Chan unlocked the door, you slipped into the cabin before anyone else could, opening every door until you found a toilet. It was a bad idea to finish two water bottles during the car ride, and you regret it so much.

When you finished, you found Jisung waiting outside the bathroom. He told you to go outside and went in to do his business. You listened to him, stepping outside to admire your first snowfall. As you held out your hand to catch snowflakes, Jisung crept behind you, waiting for the perfect moment to scare you.

“Boo!”

Startled by his sudden appearance, you flinched, forming a fist with your hand. The snowflakes you caught melted from your crushing grip combined with the warmth of your hand. You wiped the moisture onto his pullover, laughing at the wet handprint forming on his chest.

“Serves you right,” you scoffed.

“Want to check out cabin real quick and go for a walk after?” Jisung suggested.

“Sure.”

While making your way through the cabin, you were both amazed. The cabin was actually ginormous, but you never noticed until now. Earlier, your mind was clouded with thoughts of finding the nearest bathroom. You followed him upstairs, finishing the cabin tour at the door at end of the hall.

Leaning against the door frame, Jisung pointed to the inside of the master bedroom, “I like this room.”

“Too bad you can’t sleep in there,” Changbin said as he walked by.

“Why not?” He called out to his best friend.

“Chan said it’s haunted!”

You shivered at the word ‘haunted’. Goodbye, you were going to sleep outside in the snow. Jisung was free to join you unless he wanted to use an Ouija board.

“That’s not going to stop me,” he puckered his lips.

“Well, it’s certainly stopping me,” you said.

Jisung cocked an eyebrow, “You know Chan is joking right?”

“I don’t know that.”

He puffed his chest out and cockily slapped it. Jisung’s nostrils flared and you laughed. “I’ll protect you, maybe.”

“Maybe.”

“Want to go for a walk now? I want to play with snow,” he asked.

“Yes.”

iii.

“I have a surprise.”

After a long day of grocery shopping and preparing tonight’s dinner, you were exhausted. You and Jisung were assigned to cook for today. Tomorrow would be Chan and Changbin’s turn, and Woojin and his girlfriend the day after.

You had just finished playing Cards Against Humanity downstairs. Changbin kept winning multiple rounds in a row, and everyone wanted to stop playing. Changbin and Chan stayed in the game room to play pool whereas Woojin and his girlfriend were watching a thriller they had rented from the nearby grocery store. Jisung wanted to spend some alone time with you, dragging you upstairs when the game was over.

He quietly closed the door and made his way towards you. While sitting against the wall, the sudden draft coming into the master bedroom made you shiver. Chan told everyone that the house was somewhat haunted, but you weren’t sure if he was joking. Earlier, he went on about how his shoes were messily placed at the bottom of the stairs but they suddenly appeared at the top, neatly placed together. When he asked if anyone was pranking him, nobody admitted to it.

Ugh.

“Won’t everyone notice that we’re gone?” You asked.

Jisung chortled, “No? Changbin and Chan are downstairs in a heated pool game, and Woojin and his girlfriend are watching a movie in the living room. I doubt they’ll notice we’re gone.”

You rolled your eyes but gave him a small smile. He carefully lowered himself onto the rug, holding the backpack like a baby carrier. Once he unzipped the back pocket, you peeked inside, gasping at the sight of green bottles.

“I can’t believe you snuck in soju.”

“What do you mean you can’t believe I ‘snuck in soju’?” He mocked dramatically, “We’re legal of age to drink.”

“In Korea.”

“Y/N, you’re forgetting about a large majority of the world too. You’re right, but we still can’t let this go to waste!”

Jisung reached into his backpack and handed you a bottle of soju. You shivered at the touch of cold glass, but would eventually warm up after drinking the contents inside the bottle. Honestly, you preferred flavored soju over any other alcohol. It just tasted better and looked way more aesthetically pleasing than aluminum cans. When you peeked over, you noticed how there were three more bottles waiting to be opened. “Here, you can open the first bottle,” he said.

Oh boy, this is going to be a long night.

You took a sip, enjoying the familiar taste before your tongue squirmed at the aftertaste. Jisung motioned you to open your mouth wide and you listened to him. Tearing the package with ease, he poked his finger into the bag to catch a potato ring. When he popped it into your mouth, you both laughed at your struggle to catch the chip.

You asked if there were any sweets and he said no. When a look of disappointment came across your face, Jisung had to prevent himself chuckling. He thought it was cute and wanted to give you a hug. Several moments later, he caved in and handed you your favorite: Pocky. It was green tea too.

“Let’s do something we haven’t done after we started dating each other,” Jisung suggested, swiping the soju bottle from your hand.

You stopped snacking on the delicious coated biscuit and looked at your boyfriend with wide eyes, leaning away in fear. “Don’t tell me you want to play ABCD? Losing to you is basically asking for a death wish.”

At times, you thought this game was really fun. Other times, not so much.

The ABCD game was a very popular game you played back in high school. This was a game of chance. To start off the game, there needs to be at least two players. If there was more, even better. What you needed to do was represent the letters, A, B, C, and D, with different hand gestures. Depending on which of the four letters the caller gestures, the other players must gesture anything but the letter being called out. The goal was to not match your hands with what the caller said. If you gestured A and the caller said C, you’d be fine. However, if your gesture matches what the caller predicts, this would give them the opportunity to them to slap your hands.

Your luck was shit whenever you played with Jisung. He was usually able to predict the gesture you had in mind, and it was totally unfair. It’s like he read your mind like an open book. But you know, he is your boyfriend for a reason.

“Come back,” he said, lazily reaching out his arms. You didn’t even have to do anything because Jisung playfully pulled you back. He made sure you were comfortable by leaning your body against his while he locked his arms around your waist. “You know, I really enjoyed playing that game, but only when you were part of it.”

Tilting your head away to look at him, you replied with a scowl on your face, “You only enjoyed it because you would always win and bully me. Getting slapped by you was the worst, but it’s not as bad as your wrist slaps or forehead flicks.”

“I was not a bully Y/N, stop exaggerating. I only played knowing that I could inflict pain on you and rub your hands to make you feel better.” Jisung’s chuckling sent vibrations against your back. “Other than making you feel better afterward, it gave me a pretty good excuse to hold your hands.”

Wow, unbelievable, you thought. You gave him a huge eye roll. He could only shrug at you while butterflies stirred inside your stomach. A small smile involuntarily made its way on your lips. “I see you trying to be smooth.”

Jisung cockily smirked, “I know I was smooth, and still am, baby.”

His sudden burst of confidence made you laugh. There were times where he got super cocky. Jisung took another swig of the peach soju, finishing the rest of the bottle in a matter of seconds. Then, he reached for another, asking you to open it again.

“Why did you only get peach flavored when you prefer strawberry flavored soju?” You drank a big gulp from the bottle, scrunching your nose at the aftertaste. After handing the bottle to Jisung, you tried flicking off the end of the soju cap but wasn’t successful.

“Because your favorite is peach.”

You softly smiled and placed your hands on top of his. When you tilted your head back to look at him, he cocked an eyebrow and leaned in. “What is something we haven’t done since we began dating each other?” You asked.

He hummed. “21 questions?”

You agreed and Jisung quickly excused himself to use the restroom. He said something about the alcohol kicking in and making his kidneys work. When he came back, you two didn’t return to your cuddling position but sat across from each other in crisscrossing position. Jisung shook his head and removed his gray zip up from his body. “It’s getting hot in here,” he fanned himself.

“I think it’s just you,” you laughed.

“I know you think I’m hot and all but I was talking about the temperature, missy,” he playfully teased.

You rolled your eyes at his teasing comment and told him to go first. Jisung held his palm out, waiting for you to entwine your fingers with his. You leaned in to touch the back of your hand on his cheek. His body temperature was rising, and his Asian glow was starting to show. He whined at your cold skin coming into contact with his and removed your hand from his face. With both hands, he gently massaged and blew into it before switching to the next hand.

“What’s the biggest pet peeve you have on me?” Your boyfriend cocked an eyebrow, making a ‘be honest’ face at you.

“You’re ridiculously messy sometimes. I hate it when you sleep over at my place and dump all of your belongings into a small pile in the corner of my room.”

Jisung chuckled, “I know.”

“Then don’t do it.” You frowned, taking the first sip of the newly opened bottle peach soju. Your insides felt warm and fuzzy as the effects of the alcohol spread from your stomach to your cheeks.

“You’ve been dealing with it for two years, I’m sure you can put up with it for another fifty.”

You were confused. “Fifty?”

“Please let me marry you,” he dipped his head while laughing. Jisung rubbed his forehead with his other hand and mumbled something about turning your room into a pig’s den.

It was your turn to laugh. “You’re drunk.”

“So? I love you though, and it’s your turn.”

“If Changbin was a girl, would you date him instead?”

“Yes,” Jisung responded before chugging more soju.

After unlocking fingers with him, you grabbed Jisung’s arm and shook his body repeatedly before pinching him. He mumbled ‘fuck’ when he spilled some soju onto his clothes and told you to get the box of tissues on the nightstand beside the bed. He let you do whatever you wanted and giggled nonstop. You were offended but it didn’t hold you back from breaking into small fits of laughter too. When you calmed down, Jisung wrapped an arm around your shoulders and gave you a quick kiss on the cheek. You grinned and leaned in to hug him.

“Y/N, I mean… Of course, I would date Changbin if he was a girl, but he’s not,” Jisung shrugged.

“I get it, your turn,” you huffed. Jisung sensed your bitterness and pulled you closer to him to mumble an apology. When you shook your head and pretended to be mad, he whined and begged for your forgiveness.

“How many of my hoodies do you have?”

“Five.”

“I love it when others comment on how oversized they look on you and you tell them it belongs to your boyfriend,” Jisung leaned his head onto yours.

You lightly scoffed at his cockiness. “How do you know people comment on your hoodies?”

“Because they’re two times your size? Also, I know you wouldn’t lie. I just know you,” Jisung said, whispering the last part.

“How often do you ransack my fridge when I’m not home?”

“Is that even a valid question? Literally, all the time.” Jisung paused for a minute to think of what to ask next, “What do you like most about me?”

“I love how you’re a great storyteller and never seem to bore me. Maybe you exaggerate waaaaay too much sometimes, but you can get so dramatic, it’s funny.”

With a smug smile on his lips, Jisung had an uncontrollable feeling in his heart. Once he heard your words, he could feel his heart swelling. He pressed his lips against your forehead in a soft manner. Usually, Jisung wasn’t this affectionate, but this time he was. It wasn’t mainly due to alcohol. He just really wished he had more time to spend with you.

He sighed, “Can we lay on the bed? This wall is getting uncomfortable.”

You nodded, moved over to the master bed. As he laid in bed with his arm cushioning the back of your head like a pillow, he hated how the retreat and winter break was breezing by so fast. When it was over, it meant you and he would have to part ways again and wait for the next break to arrive.  

He just hated long distancing. Sometimes, his head swarmed with thoughts of you growing tired of him and finding someone else. Even though you were almost two hours away from him which wasn’t as bad as other couples, Jisung wished he had brought his car at least. You both hated how freshmen were not allowed to bring their cars due to the limited parking on campus. If he did, he would have to pay for a parking permit that was ridiculously expensive. You told him it wasn’t worth it, and he listened to you. Also, you’re both currently dorming as first years, so there’s really no reason to have a car when everything was so close.

“I think we’ve gone past twenty one questions, Y/N,” he mumbled into your hair.

“Do you want to stop asking?”

“No,” he tiredly let out. Then, Jisung pulled you closer, hugging you tighter to himself. “It’s your turn again.”

“Do you ever get tired of me?”

Jisung leaned away to take your cheeks between his palms. “Nooooooooooo! Why would you think that? I love you soooo much Y/NNNNN. Don’t you trust me?”

“You’re so drunk,” you said with squished cheeks.

He shook his head and leaned in laughing. It was the cutest thing you’ve ever seen. Jisung placed his forehead against yours and began to caress your cheek. You giggled at the soft, ticking motions from his thumb, and closed your eyes once you knew what was coming for you. First, he touched the tip of his nose with yours and waited for you to open your eyes. Then, Jisung playfully planted a kiss onto your lips. When he pulled away, you thought he was finished but he had other plans in mind. He pecked your lips a couple more times before finishing off with a long smooch.

“I really hate long distance,” he whispered dejectedly after pulling away.

You made a thin line with your lips and suddenly felt sad. When you looked at him, Jisung avoided your gaze because he knew he was going to break. He knew he could always tell you anything, but he usually kept it to himself unless you were with him. If he looked into your eyes, everything would spill out. You know your boyfriend has been bottling his feelings ever since school started.

The both of you weren’t use to the sudden change. From seeing each other almost every day in high school to having to see each other only during breaks or once every few weeks was especially hard for Jisung. There were moments at the beginning of the school year where he shut you out for a few days. When he realized you were affected by the long distance as well, he told himself to stop being selfish and inconsiderate. He came clean and apologized to you.

Jisung still remembers the night where he tried to video call, but you didn’t pick up until his third attempt. It was a Friday night. Once your roommate left to a party, that’s when you allowed yourself to cry. When you picked up his call, you were upset and didn’t even want to look at him.

Jisung’s eyes softened once he spotted you wiping your teary eyes and sniffling nonstop. You almost looked like Rudolph the rednosed reindeer.  When the small pile of tissues beside your mint colored Hydro Flask caught his attention, Jisung felt even worse.

You both cried that night, but it got better from there.

By making the effort to see each other and planning dates to come home, Jisung would always put in 100% in getting his work done. That way, he could spend the whole Saturday or the three day weekend with you without having to worry about schoolwork. Jisung hated like deadlines, quizzes, and homework. It was a pain to get through the week with a packed schedule, but he always looked forward to the end of the week. You were always so proud of him when he called to let you know he finished his work. It motivated you to do the same.

“Me too,” you agreed.

Knowing Jisung, you knew he was feeling insecure because he constantly tends to overthink all the time. Sometimes, you had to reassure him multiple times that you weren’t going to leave him or find someone else. It was difficult when he believed he was the one lacking in the relationship. He couldn’t be there when you were struggling or hold you when you were crying. It’s not his fault, and he knows it. He just couldn’t help but blame himself.

You loved this boy so much. School seemed to be depressing and boring without him by your side. There were times where he spoke to you about transferring to your school, but there was such a small chance that he’d be able to. It just wouldn’t be worth it in the end. Jisung would probably have to stay longer because some credits wouldn’t be able to transfer.

“You know I love you right?” You asked.

Jisung chose to keep his eyes on the ceiling and stared at the shitty skylight. He was trying to prevent himself from having any eye contact with you. When you leaned over to gently shift his chin towards you, he knew he wouldn’t be able to look away this time. His eyes watered and his bottom lip trembled. You felt your heart aching when he quickly brought his sleeve to wipe the teardrop that had just rolled down his cheek. He never cries unless it relates to you.

“Jisung, I want you to know that I love you very much. I know it’s been hard for you, and trust me, it’s been hard for me too,” you wiped another hot teardrop from his cheek, “But I need you to know that I’m not going to leave you. I won’t find anyone else. I won’t get tired of you either. Because I love you so much.”

“Maybe you won’t feel that way about me one day,” he said with a shaky voice.

Did Jisung really doubt you that much? You felt anxious and stressed because he didn’t trust you. Were your words never enough for him? You felt a prickling sensation in your eyes, and tears started to spill out. You didn’t bother to hide your ugly crying from him. “But I know I will, Jisung. I always will,” you leaned into his pullover and began to hiccup.

You began to sob which caused Jisung to cry harder. He instinctively wrapped his arms around you while you hugged his torso tighter than ever. You both listened to each other cry and were afraid of letting each other go. You didn’t want to lose him. Jisung didn’t want to lose you either.

You were both stupid.

Once he calmed himself down, Jisung began to rub small circles on your back. It was his way of apologizing between your sniffling and slight coughing. He knows you would never leave him, and he knows he was being an idiot. Instead of bottling it to himself, he should’ve talked to you when he was feeling insecure. His soothing patting comforted you, and you stopped crying. Exhausted from crying, you nuzzled your face into the crook of his neck. Afraid of him leaving, you hugged him tighter when you thought he was pulling away.

“I’m sorry, Y/N,” he hugged you back, “I believe it whenever you tell me you’re not going to leave me.”

You sniffled, “No you don’t.”

“Trust me, I do. I just let my insecurities get the best of me, and I’m sorry. I want you to know something though,” he whispered.

You finally pulled away to look at Jisung. His eyes were slightly red due to crying and he scrunched his nose as an attempt to prevent his nose from running. He brushed your hair out of your face and handed you a tissue to blow your nose. “I’m an idiot and-“

“Damn right you are,” you angrily slapped his chest, “Never do that again, Han Jisung.”

“You didn’t let me finish,” he whined.

“What did you want to tell me then?”

“I’m an idiot. To think that you would ever leave me for someone else or grow tired of me is the dumbest thing that’s ever crossed my mind. I know I stress and upset you with my insecurities, but I want you to know that… From now on, I’ll become a better lover. I hope you know that I’m going to improve from this point on because I’m stronger than that. I’m so sorry, just please know that,” Jisung confessed.

“You don’t need to become better, Jisung. You’re fine just the way you are, but you should understand that it affects me as well.”

“I’m sorry.”

“Don’t bottle your feelings. It’s not healthy, and I worry about you,” you sniffled.

“Again, Y/N, I’m sorry.”

You wiped the last of your tears with your sleeve, “You better be.”

“Y/N?”

“Hmmm?”

“I just miss you.”

Both of you quietly stared at the skylight in silence. Now that his vision was no longer blurry from crying, Jisung could see a few twinkling dots. The sky was pitch black; it’s something you’d never be able to see back in Los Angeles.

“You know, there’s a door right there that leads to the patio?” He pointed to the corner of the room. You never realized there was even a door until now.

After telling Jisung you wanted to go outside, he gave you a tissue to blow your nose. Then, he blew his own to get rid of snot that built up from earlier. You got off the bed, following him as he slowly unlocked the door. Once he opened the door, the freezing temperature caused goosebumps to rise on your skin. Stepping foot onto the patio, you saw the sky and gasped in amazement.

Jisung stood behind you, breathing slowly to play with fog forming out of his mouth. When he looked at the sky, his eyebrows raised from shock. Although the sky was pitch black, there were countless stars cluttered together. From time to time, you listened to the wind causing trees to sway, rustling their leaves. Sometimes, even the howling of coyotes could be heard too. Everything seemed so calming and refreshing after a good cry.

When you turned around, Jisung instantly locked eyes with you. He’s sobered up by now. Reaching for your head, he gently squeezed your cheeks between his hand. It was another way of apologizing, and you smiled.

You grabbed his hand, removing it from your cheeks and led him back inside. After shutting the door, you tiptoed, pressing a kiss against his lips. Jisung immediately responded, kissing you back slowly. His hands held onto your waist while your hands cupped his cheeks. When he parted his lips, he flicked his tongue between your lips to part them open. Deepening the kiss, he hoisted you to wrap your legs around his waist.

When Jisung broke the kiss to get a breath of fresh air, he gave you a soft smile. You couldn’t help but smile back at your boyfriend because he was so cute that it made your heart melt. When you least expected it, he tossed you onto the bed and laughed loudly. Soon, he joined you in bed, hugging you closer to himself. Leaning forward, he kissed you first and positioned himself to straddle you in between his thighs. When Jisung slightly pulled away, he stared at you with so much adoration.

Then, he dipped his head, brushing away your strands of hair, “May I?”

fallout 4 companions best to worst

with funny images at the start of each character review! DLC companions included! also BIG TIME SPOILERS FOR FALLOUT 4 OKAY 3 2 1 GOOOO!

1. nick valentine - clockwork PI 

positives: he’s a robot detective who loves neon and smokes even though he has no lungs you know he’s a man who appreciates aesthetic.

negatives: none

2. old longfellow - old salty 

positive: grandpa time. he's perfect. this man is everyone's rough and tumble but supportive grandfather. he's a rough block of wood, well worn and with a sense of humor, drinking habits, great dialogue, fantastic personality and can follow you around, he never outwears his welcome. he can even follow you around the commonwealth. rivals nick valentine for best companion to me.negative: i can't really think of ANY.

3. codsworth - lovable orb 

positives: truly a stalwart companion, never abandons you, waited 2 centuries for the player character. it made me upset you couldn't romance them, the character who truly had a connection with you. they're fantastic and the top 3 was a REALLY close call.

negatives: cannot romance, wHY TODD YOU COWARD

4. preston garvey - minutemen general 

positive:  i can't even bring myself to post a jokey image for him he's just that good. god his character is good. he's a broken man, but he still doesn't stop helping others, or giving up hope. he's truly a good person, but not unrealistic. he has his limits, and can bend and break. and unlike other companions strangely, he DOES have more loyalty breaking points than the others, like if you side with raiders he will shoot you on sight. unless you deviate from the carefully curated quest paths in which case aaaaaaa also his backstory good, and i like how he faces his inner demons, altho i wish he'd just take the mantle of general. he honestly deserves it.

DOWNSIDES: ANOTHER SETTLEMENT NEEdS OUR HELP. making any companion a never ending, radiant quest hub, is a BAD FECKIN IDEA BOYO. BUCKO ITS A BAD IDEA. as a result of him being a radiant quest hub, its the onbly thing people know about him, care about, and experience while in game, because before and after every character interaction is something about his radiant quest hub quests. also romancing him feels HORRIBLE just like mac cready.

5. john maccready - ratface 

positives:  Positives, I like snarky mercs. And he had real Scout vibes.Honestly if you forget he existed in any other fallout games, on his own he's a decent companion. I like having him around, he's like that coworker of yours who keeps stealing office supplies but he always has spare smokes if you ask. honestly maccready is like if you dipped piper in the FEV. he's just a better version of her.  she's too heavy handed i'm sorry

negative:  again bethesda's bad design about being afraid of upsetting consumers. because once you finish his personal quest, spoilers getting the cure for his infant son's sickness, he should IMMEDAITELY RETURN TO HIS SON. WHY ARE YOU STILL HERE MAC AND CHEESE. GO RAISE YOUR SON. also romancing him just feels dirty and manipulative. this MAN IS CLEARLY STILL GREIVING FOR HIS DEAD WIFE!!!  most of the romance paths honestly feel dirty and manipulative to me, like you're taking advantage of their friendship and trust in you

6. Ada - actual wife 

positives: i love robots and this is like if curie didn't suck and wasn't born sexy yesterday. she has a character arc and is cool and has personality and also she's made of different robot parts when she starts out and that's cool. her story is good and even her generic lines are charming.

negatives: after the mechanist dlc is over she has no more unique cool things to say, and its sad they didn't prepare enough dialogue for her

7. john danse - paladin pants 

positives: danse is a trooper, he's a boot boy yeah. in literal apocalypse land tho, understandable. also he is loyal to his team and anyone he considers his friends. once he spoilers is exiled from the brotherhood for being a synth and loses his way he does lose some of his hangups, becomes a more thoughtful person. his character arc is good, i like how he ends up.

negatives: holy fuck my cat just jumped in my lap he's like my way or the highway haha. anyways back to pants paladin. like i said he has some hangups, aka his racism from living in the brotherhood, a proto-fascist military cult. but honestly this doesn't make him a bad character, and he does get better from it. i'm gonna be real here the only negative about him is again, THE ROMANCE PATH. IT FEELS SO NEGATIVE AND DIRTY AND MANIPULATIVE. like i see people say he's a bad character but no he's just a bad person. and even then, he does learn and adapt.you can have characters who aren't good people in your stories

8. piper - waifu bait 

positive:  extra extra read all about it, the tracer of fallout 4 not totally a bad thing tho, she's just.obviously the companion you're supposed to like the most.

negative:  her quirkiness has its charms but it can be KINDA much sometimes. also she’s obvious waifu bait. however in the end she's really more a person i'd want to argue with as a friend and hang just chill around she's pushy tho and i don't like being railroaded into certain quests or storybeats.

9. dog - dog 

positive: dog is dog

negative: is not robot detective or butler, but is still good

10. deacon - MY EYES!!! 

positives: charming spy man, so deep in the weeds he doesn't even know his own past or even if he's a synth. that's quirky and cute. he also has that very obvious spy charm of, his disguise is just him wearing clothes. iits funny like superman putting glasses on.

negatives: honestly he's just kinda bland. he's such a mystery wrapped in an enigma locked in a puzzlebox owned by that demon guy with the needles in his head, that there's nothing to know about him. really i can't figure him out. or get to know him.then again some of that is due to trust issues. i mean neat character trait but there's not much for me to consume here.

11. john hancock - anarcho beef jerky 

positive:  he's a pretty free wheeling kinda dude and i like that, he stands up against bad authority, to an extent, and that's where some of my issues crop up

negative:  it could also be blamed on shitty bethesda afraid you wouldn't do certain content if it locked you out of your favorite companions, but he'll stand with you through allying with the institute, the brotherhood, anyone. also his anarchist leadership style has resulted in a lot of issues for his community he doesn't seem keen on fixing or reflecting on anytime soon. also constant substance abuse and he'll encourage you to take on the party hardy lifestyle tooi just look at freeside i mean goodneighbor i mean freeside and i think "man you're supposed to be the king i mean the mayor you should do better". ripoff of the king i'm gonna rip off the bandaid tbh, not even as cool as the king. the king really looked out for freesiders while hancock kinda just... meanders about the place. being mayor with no authority on purpose just makes you, a guy who kills people sometimes.

12. automatron - build-a-bear workshop BUT WITH GUN 

positive: there's a few distinct personality modules and voice actors for the automatron companions, each one is enjoyable, i liked them, and they were all different from each other. i consider them like mini companions. plus being able to build your very own custom robots with any parts you want is the most epic part of this companion.

negative: the dialogue for the voice actor packs is pretty limited, like pretty limited. not a lot to hear before they loop. i'd have to say these are more neutral than even X6-88 for me

13. X6-88: oh that uniquely named courser that showed up as i destroyed the institute, wait he was a companion??? 

positives:

okay negatives time

negatives:for real tho he's just uh, again kind of a Nothing character. not as disappointing as Strong tho. As an institute courser he's just... well he just Is. he exists. doesn't really question his nature tho, or consider what life would be like outside the institute... its like if Danse had no character arc at all and spoilers just stayed in the brotherhood like a good proto-fascist feudalistic power armored boot boy. he feels like a quota like todd howard walked in the design room and said "we need an institute companion" and then the designers said "... fuck. we're almost done with the game's story okay lets cook something up". i'd have to say he's perfectly average. he's like the bland guy from the wendys commercials about how spicy their chicken is

14. porter gage - why do i keep stepping on this rake 

positives: his armor looks cool, and his voice actor is good. i like that a raider character is portrayed by a sneaky advisor type instead of just a chest beating tough guy on chems. porter is an interesting take, and his motivations and methods are interesting.

negatives: his motivations don't make sense though. he's seen over and over in his life that raiders simply are unsustainable and don't work, always breaking apart. yet he... still wants to be a raider, and advise raider gangs? it doesn't make sense. also if you buddy up with him preston will hate you, and you have to eliminate your OWN settlements in the commonwealth. sorry porter but i'm not willing to make that kind of sacrifice at all. he's alright as a character but not really deep. having a backstory doesn't mean you're deep, that's Bethesda Deep™. Bad, no. Die now with the rest of nuka world, gage.

15. strong - fallout 3 was a mistake 

positives: non-human companion, i like that. super mutants are always cool

negatives: lumpy and misshappen as fuck oh god he's like a slab of moldy ribs. also his character? what character? he's just a bog standard super mutant, not even a cool one from the west coast. he's just an orc, a raider painted green with half a brain and a penchant for eating people. he doesn't change or evolve, he's just. he's a Nothing character.

16. curie - born french yesterday 

positives:  so i guess i should start with the positives since that's a trend in this list now. positives! robot, and one that's both aware of how the world's dead but wants to learn, and make it better. i always like robots, and well. uh. robot. i'm out of positives now.

negatives: she is the living embodiment of th e born sexy yesterday trope. profoundly naive, yet unimaginably wise. and spoilers once she gets a SEXAYYYYY human bod from a braindead synth, her naive nature is played up even further as WHAT EEZ DIS STRANGE FEELING UWU I FEEL HORMONE AND LUUUV its bad, its bad its bad. french maid plus nurse wrapped into one, with the mind of a child, aka its the born sexy yesterday trope. and you can only fuc once she's out of the robot body and this makes betheseda COWARDS. LET ME HAVE MY ROBOTS.

17. cait - drug

positive:

negative: commit go away from my game. rude, not fun to be around, substance abuse storyline is NOT handled well. also in boston the one irish character is all fucked up come on man.

[gavillain]

So with the year about to close, I'm once again doing my annual Top Ten Villains of This Year list. My personal rule for doing this: these characters are judged solely on the merits of their 2017 appearances, and I'm not going to include any villain who has appeared on last year's list (which you can read here), even if they would still make the cut. So, basically, what I'm saying is no Cersei this year even though she was awesome XD Also bear in mind that this is only from media that I actually did this year, so forgive me if your favorite isn't here because I might not have seen them.

List under the cut

10. Mr. Yama (Big Hero 6)

The Big Hero 6 TV show pilot has promised probably the best Disney animated series in a long time, particularly given the return of Kim Possible and Buzz Lightyear of Star Command showrunners McCorkle and Schooley. Mr. Yama was a bit part in the original film who I never thought much of, so imagine my surprise when he came back as the starter villain of the show and was not only enjoyable but was memorable. I like how they took a bit part that was already established and used him as a way to introduce their unseen show original bigger bad. I've always been a sucker for crimebosses, so seeing Yama take on that role as the local gang leader who you don't want to fuck with was pretty cool. Also I thought he served a really nice balance between funny and intimidating. I really look forward to seeing what else this show has to offer!9. Jim Moriarty (Sherlock)

While the ultimate reveal that Moriarty was not, in fact, back from the dead was certainly a disappointment to me, damn if the new Moriarty content we got wasn't worth it. The main villain of this series was actually Eurus Holmes, Mycroft and Sherlock's mentally unstable sister, who set up an elaborate plan with Moriarty before his death. Eurus is cool too, but not really one who appeals to me that much. The big draw to the episode, in my opinion, was Moriarty's posthumous vengeance. Seeing him still flawlessly portrayed by Andrew Scott having the time of his life through flashbacks and video messages, Moriarty is still easily the most fun villain to watch on the show, and he hasn't lost a single beat. The way he's come to be sort of the devil on Sherlock's shoulder and a symbol of all evil in Sherlock's world has given him a sort of twisted immortality. Also, it must be said, him dramatically stepping out of the helicopter dancing to "I Want to Break Free" is nothing sort of AWESOME XD8. Euron Greyjoy (Game of Thrones)

Euron Greyjoy's transition from being a disappointing and uninteresting character to being a fabulous scene stealer btween seasons was one of the biggest hallmarks of the improvement in quality between season six and seven. He was definitely underused in the season, given his lower position on this list, but the way he confidently strutted up to Queen Cersei and started making innuendos and proposing mutual murdering is exactly the type of horrible person that I can get behind. The way he revels in bloodshed and totally decimated Yara and the Sand Snakes' forces and then paraded them through King's Landing as the triumphant "hero" was just wonderful. His actor has also definitely improved, becoming a lot more charismatic and unhinged in his portrayal, which not only made him more entertaining, but, in a way, more threatening. I love his alliance with Cersei, and I really look forward to seeing what those two cook up next season.7. Madame Hydra (Agents of SHIELD)

This was a great year for Marvel villains any way you slice it, with a couple more still yet to appear on this list. However, none have quite been as topical as the MCU's adaptation of Madame Hydra over in Agents of SHIELD. Madame Hydra is the alter ego of Aida in the virtual reality alternate universe of the Framework, which depicts a world totally conquered by Hydra. Marvel's gotten themselves into trouble lately with its use of Hydra, but this was a really good place for it. Depicting a totally dismal totalitarian state that the heroes have to fight to dismantle, showing the way Hydra pushes "alternative facts" through their "fake news" to push their agenda of "make the world great again." Yeah, as you can tell, this season goes hard in slamming the Trump administration and equating them with Hydra which the show goes out of its way to say "Hydra is a bunch of Nazis, every last one of them." It's pretty much exactly the type of heavy handed metaphor we needed right now, and Madame Hydra is at the head of it all with her cold ruthlessness and picture perfect page to screen transition. 6. Arthur Watts (RWBY)

RWBY has villain problems. There's no real way around it. And while Watts does have some of the issues that are endemic to the series, he's also been pretty consistently the element that I most look forward to seeing in a given episode of RWBY. With his posh and snarky personality constantly making him an entertaining addition to any given scene, he really reminds of that type of classic Disney villain mold we haven't seen in a while. This is a guy who would not at all be out of his element standing next to the likes of Jafar or Dr. Facilier, and that's high praise coming from me. The way he's manipulating and holding the leash on Professor Lionheart is really cool, and his sort of scientific inquisitiveness makes him stand out from the other villains quite nicely. He's the type of villain who gives me faith that investing in a series like RWBY isn't a waste of time, and I really look forward to see what they continue to do with him. Also, it must be said, his mustache game is too top tier to ignore.5. Hela (Thor: Ragnarok)

Well this was a pleasant surprise, wasn't it? An MCU movie villain who was actually one of the best parts of her given film. Ragnarok actually had several villains it, featuring a surprisingly fun version of Surtur, the hilarious Grandmaster, the conflicted Skurge, and the ever unpredictable Loki. Yet, Hela definitely stands tall as the best among all of them, in my opinion. Cate Blanchett does a great job with her, giving her a very Maleficent-esque persona that I had a lot of fun with. I really liked the undercurrents of colonial imperialism with her, and how Hela was bent on being unapologetically proud of Asgard's bloody history and continuing to subjugate "lesser" worlds. That's a neat and fresh angle to take the archetype of the power hungry villain. Also, damn was she impressive. With her power to make blades appear out of nowhere and how she was basically indestructible on Asgard, she was easily the most powerful feeling MCU villain yet. She just lends herself incredibly to almost every facet she was here to provide, and that easily warrants a place among the best villains of 2017 and the best of the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe.4. Uma and Harry (Descendants 2)

Descendants 2 was a let down overall, but the one element that exceeded all of my expectations were the new Villain Kids, especially Uma and Harry. Uma's great as a young and ambitious up and comer who wants all of the luxuries she was denied by basically being charged with the sins of her mother all while also wanting the recognition and adoration that she craves. Harry's great as a total psychopath who creates sexual tension with everyone he comes into contact with but doesn't really have any ambitions or the brains to make it on his own. Together, they make a fun duo with an interesting dynamic that seems to harken back to that sort of Lost Boys mother longing. I like their repartee a lot, their actors are absolutely phenomenal, and their villain song is really REALLY catchy. They have similarities to their parents, but they're not carbon copies by any means. Though I did really enjoy how Uma used Ursula's seashell hypnosis scheme on Prince Ben for the climax and then later on went full out giant octopus for the final battle. That was really cool. It must also be said, the whole pirate motif really tickles my fancy too.3. The Riddler (Gotham)

Gotham actually had a lot of great villains in 2017, as they always do. The heart of the show has always consistently been Penguin and Nygma, and while Penguin was great this year, Nygma was the MVP. He’s been on a dark path ever since his first murder back in season one, but this year fully saw him embrace his destiny as The Riddler - fancy green suit, ridiculous name, gimmicks and all. It was great to see him finally embrace the title in "How the Riddler Got His Name," and, while it was heartbreaking to watch, his betrayal of Penguin really allowed him to step out of Penguin's shadow and into his own spotlight. I particularly love his penchant for doing things as melodramatically as possible, with him actually murdering a man on stage in a play where he sent out his message to the elites of Gotham. He's so extra and flamboyant in everything that he does that it's just a treat to watch. And while I'm not caught up on Season Four right now, what I have seen of him manipulating Solomon Grundy has been really enjoyable too, showing off how even when he's lost his evil genius, he's still smart in the way that he can manipulate and play others to get what he wants. 2. Rita Repulsa (Power Rangers)

It's been a good year for green villains, apparently. I was as skeptical as anyone with the live action Power Rangers movie, but it ended up being one of the best films I watched this year. Elizabeth Banks plays Rita Repulsa and is having the time of her life up there. She's not quite as hammy as OG Rita, but she gets about as close as a semi-serious movie will allow. I like the added backstory to her feeling like an outsider of the original Power Rangers team and her having been their green ranger. He design as a sort of jagged perversion of the Rangers' uniform is a neat design aesthetic, and it looks really friggin' cool. I like how she does feel like an ancient and powerful witch who has come to really make us all feel the hurt. The scene in Trini's bedroom is pretty chilling, and the fact that she does manage to kill one of the Rangers (albeit temporarily) really makes her dangerousness feel genuine. She's also got some great comedic moments given that the macguffin she's after is buried underneath a Krispy Kreme and just hearing this powerful ancient witch trying to find Krispy Kreme of all places is exactly the type if ridiculousness I'm here for. 1. Daken (Iceman)

A lot of long term Daken fans were not happy about his portrayal in Iceman. I am not one of them. At all. I loved seeing him back in fully swagalicious glory on the pages of one of the best comic runs that I've read in a long time. His chemistry with Bobby is perfect, and I loved how much Daken was flirting with him while Bobby was having absolutely none of it. I love how the first encounter with him is in a super swanky club with him rocking designer formal wear even amidst the battle against Bobby. And despite how controversial it is, I like his whole dynamic with Zach. I like how it shows exactly the type of manipulative hypocrite he is, and how he can also be extremely petty and trivial in his desire for what he wants with sending Zach to steal an ordinary ring that catches his eye. And I'm really looking forward to the next few upcoming issues where we'll see the payoff to Daken's scheme that he's been setting up, which promises to be really interesting. As someone for whom the antihero Daken stuff that's been going on in All-New Wolverine just hasn't done it for me, it's nice to see him have his proverbial villain claws back in this run. Also, while it doesn't really count for this list's purposes, despite the fact that I've been a long time Daken fan and reader of his self-titled series, this year was finally the year where I got to fill in my gaps in his history and see the full picture for really the first time, which allowed him to climb all the way into my top favorite villains of all time. So it's been a big year for me and Daken, and I think he easily warrants my position as the best villain of 2017.

Would you milk a cow given the chance? >> I’d have to at least try it.

What kind of underwear do you like? >> The kind that doesn’t give me a wedgie or some other kind of discomfort. (That’s... harder to do than it seems. A lot of underwear styles don’t sit right on me for some reason. Sparrow says it’s because my butt’s big. Probably.)

there's a lot of variables here. one, i think i'm going to continue being abstinent, but i'm not entirely sure anymore. two, it depends on the person. exactly how rapidly are we becoming close to the other? is jealousy healthy in a relationship? i think it is at a very mild degree. being a bit "territorial" with your partner is a good sign, to me. it's defending someone you love and showing you don't appreciate someone else showing them romantic affection, even if you trust your partner. should evolution and creationism be taught side-by-side in school?  i personally believe both of those branches should be electives. neither should be in the mandated curriculum. have you ever cosplayed? no, but honestly, i'd love to. is it wrong to sleep in a bed/cuddle with a friend (of the sex you’re attracted to) when you’re in an exclusive relationship with someone else?

why just women and heterosexual? pornography is degrading to everyone involved. do you support the exploration of outer space? if yes, would you consider taking a trip into space, or even to another planet?

 sure. wear whatcha want. would you let your children under 13 watch movies with full nudity?  HELL NO will you teach your children to believe in santa? i don't want kids, but hypothetically, i would. i really don't like the idea of lying, but i absolutely adore my memories of my own raising believing in santa. christmas was so magical. what is your opinion concerning strip clubs?  honestly? cesspits. is there any aspect of your sexuality that you would be too embarrassed to ever share with a match? i wouldn't say "embarrassed," but i know i wouldn't like to share the fact i find penises remarkably hideous. i find both genitalia to be extremely unattractive. what’s your passion?  meerkats, youtubers, silent hill, world of warcraft bc fuckin' nerd, heavy metal music have you ever been harassed and/or bullied?  no, thank christ. pick one: crash bandicoot or spyro?

strawberries have you ever tried wine? no, don't particularly want to. i know it's really bitter. have you ever just laid outside and looked at the stars? i used to do that while catfishing with dad. it was on a cement decline for boats to get into the water, and it was pretty comfortable to just lay on your back and look up at the stars while waiting. some of my favorite memories. could you date someone shorter than you? yes?? why would height have anything to do with it?? have a crazy side? not really, no. ever been kissed by a legal adult when you were a minor (or vise-versa)? yes. i like to forget it ever happened. ever been kissed by someone you didn’t want to kiss? see above. ever been walked in on while you were making out with someone? lol almost. thank god for fast reflexes. ever stopped kissing someone because they had bad breath? ha ha yep. i don't do morning breath. ever thought of someone else while you were kissing someone? no. did the one person who hurt you the most in your life apologize? yes, but i sincerely believe he didn't mean it. what's the last thing you and your ex talked about? jason, a lot. i was trying to gain closure, and i think i did. pretty sure the last thing he really said was stop saying "i'll try" and start saying "i will" or something like that. tyler, essentially to stop fucking texting me. have you ever thought about getting your lip pierced? it's been pierced before and it is again now. are you on medication for anything? bipolarity, anxiety if i need it, birth control, and an allergy med. what was the worst mistake of your life? letting jason become the entire universe to me. could you ever be friends with somebody who was homophobic? i am friends with a homophobe. i don't necessarily "respect" her opinion, but i tolerate it. i firmly believe everyone has the right to their own. does virginity matter to you?  i personally believe you should save it for someone you really, sincerely, absolutely love and plan to stay with, but i don't demean people who don't wait. regardless though, i firmly believe that you should at least feel that you love the person. how would you describe your sense of humor?  extremely dry. ever written fanfiction for anything? believe it or not, no. i don't even read it. would you rather get a tattoo or piercing? a tat do you listen to a band a lot of people don’t seem to know about?  ugh, otep is agonizingly underrated. how do you feel about children swearing? i'm against it. i believe a certain level of maturity is required to really know when it's appropriate to swear or not. what's a unique thing about your fashion sense? probably the fact i can look like a geek one second then a goth the next lol how do you feel about your weight?  i loathe it, but i feel better about it ever since finding out my weight gain wasn't my fault; it was a mood stabilizer i was on for a year or more called abilify. it's unbelievable how much that shit fucked me over, and it did absolutely nothing in terms of my mental health. my current psychiatrist pointed out how it absolutely destroys your metabolism, and he was honestly stunned when i told him no one else that i'd been seeing pointed that shit out, especially my primary doctor, who had some training in psychiatric meds; and the disgusting thing is, she occasionally acted angry towards me about it and really did make it seem like i didn't care about my health and wasn't trying. ugh. i am still remarkably bitter that i'd been put on a medicine that has a side effect of weight gain anyway considering i've explicitly told every psychiatrist i've ever seen DO FUCKING NOT put me on something that causes weight gain, because i've been through it before and worked my ass off to lose all the weight i'd gained from paxil years before. but thankfully, since being taken off abilify and loads other medications, i've been losing weight rapidly since my body can no longer sustain what i'd gained. it helps that my appetite has returned to normal; well, maybe even less than normal, but i'm not complaining. like it's brazenly obvious it was medication considering it's not like i started exercising or something, and i haven't gone on some diet. i legitimately pray that i can return to what i used to weigh. do you like to comment on other people's surveys?  only on close friend's. do you have any racist friends? yes, and it's the same story with the homophobe: i don't like your opinion, but i'm not going to generalize you as a whole terrible person just because of one belief. i'll never agree with you, but still. do you wear glasses? what style do you like better?  yeah. mine are kinda like big, geeky ones. do you prefer lemons or limes? lemons. would you consider your voice high, low, or in the middle? definitely low for a woman. any songs that make you laugh out loud when you hear them?  "i just had sex" by the lonely island ft. akon will, at the bare minimum, always make me smile. it's so silly. was your first kiss perfect? i wouldn't have had it any other way. how do you handle breakups? welp. if jason's and mine was any indication, i sob for over a year straight, get PTSD from it, want to die daily, and y'know, shit like that. i couldn't be more thankful that i'm over that shit. if you had to get a tattoo, where would you get it? there's a few that i'm debating on being my next. there's a big, very detailed one i want on my right, upper arm, but i'm sure it won't be my next because it's going to be fucking expensive. one that has a good chance of being my next is a cool design i found that is geometric and has a badass-looking ram in the center, then in an arch over it, i want the lyrics "maybe i'm a misfit, maybe i'm different; it will never be an average existence" from "rise, rebel, resist" by otep. i think it looks really cool with the design because the graphic kinda radiates a sort of dominant, resilient aura. i'm not sure where i'd get it, though. another that has a good possibility being next is a design that has a few tiny koi fish going around the wrist in a slight angle. it's really cute; i'd get it on the top of my left wrist. i also like this triangular design that has a watercolor, fire-like texture sprayed over it; in a pretty chiseled font, I want "Gefährlich ist wer Schmerzen kennt" ("whoever knows pain is dangerous") written over it, from "feuer frei" by rammstein. i'd get it on top of my right hand. this one has a high chance of being my next one considering the budget will probably be kinda small. lastly, another with a good shot is getting the anxiety ribbon with the lyrics "you can't kill what you did not create" (from "just when you thought we couldn't get any more emo, we go and pull a stunt like this" by motionless in white; yes, seriously) beside it. i'm thinking of getting it on my right forearm, on the side. WOW that was long pardon me and my tattoo ideas. do you wear your seat belt in the car? always. what's your biggest turn off? if you believe illnesses are only real if they're physical, i will immediately fucking hate you. like i know i say a lot i respect other's opinions, but that is one i will never, ever, tolerate. have you ever set a marshmallow on fire? yes. i'm awful at roasting marshmallows. thinking back to your relationships, who ended it? counting everyone who's had the "boyfriend" title, plus a "friend" who i briefly acted like more with: me, me, me, him, me. do you know anyone who's been arrested? i think i don't... have you ever tried to reconnect with someone from your past, but were unable to find them/get in touch with them? multiple online friends. do you believe that the more that you give, the more you will get?  in general, but not always. what is something you've recently discovered that you're absolutely in love with? how did you come across it? this is by no means recent, but the last thing i discovered that i fell in love with was rhett and link, whom i started to watch daily over a year ago. i was first exposed to them by my ex, but back then, i never watched them with him. big mistake lol. i actually don't recall how i re-discovered them... what was the first social network website you joined?  myspace. what is the worst natural disaster you've experienced firsthand? hurricane floyd. do you like to receive feedback on things you've made or done? i mean, sure. it's nice to see what others think. do you own any webkinz?

 goofy do you listen to kpop, jpop, or cpop? no. have an acquaintance who's obsessed, though. which baby animal is your favorite? meerkats. like, have you seen pups?? chocolate or strawberry milk?  strawberry milk is fucking repulsive, so chocolate. does your job allow piercings or tattoos? currently unemployed, but i wouldn't work anywhere that didn't allow either. do you like rollercoasters? never been on one, probably never will. i'm too scared of throwing up. how old is your oldest and youngest friend?

Why the Best Super Bowl Commercials Were All Cars and Tech

Super Bowls used to mean Tom Brady hoisting another trophy along with ads of polar bears drinking Coke on not-yet-melting polar ice caps, that and the Budweiser Clydesdales. Now the most memorable – sorry, memorably good – commercials are cars and tech. Car ads have always been part of the 54 Super Bowls, but in the dotcom boom years “tech ad” meant money frittered away. Remember Pets.com? Agillon? Epidemic.com? All goners. Maybe automakers did a better job because there really are differences among cars. And the tech guys have learned from the money-wasting days at the turn of the century.

Here are the best car and tech ads of Super Bowl 54 (that’s LIV for traditionalists) along with some that didn’t click quite as well, and the best non-tech ad. We’re linking to ads from places (mostly, automaker sites on YouTube) that don’t have ads in front of them because why should you pay (with your time) to see an advertisement in order to see an ad?

The Best Ads: Hyundai Sonata, Jeep Gladiator

Hyundai Sonata Smaht Pahk. Two car ads stood out. The Hyundai Sonata spot for Smaht Pahk was the winner because it was funny, it made fun of a socio-economic group you can always make fun (people from Boston, especially since New England departed the playoffs early), and most of all because it is going to sell Hyundai Sonatas. The Sonata is the most important new car of 2020 (see our review), it is the Extreme Tech Car of the Year, and it’s loaded with standard safety features, virtually all of which are on the base, $26,000 Sonata SE. The top-line  Sonata Limited, $34,000, includes Remote Smart Parking Assist, now being called Smart Park. Hop out, press the keyfob, and the Sonata pahks itself at Hahvahd Yahd, and backs out when you return. If you have a narrow garage in Back Bay or Chahlston, you don’t have to squeeze in and out inside the garage.

Too many Super Bowl commercials are ad agency spitting matches using client money to prove who’s more clever, with less thought given to whether the ad sells the product. The “Smaht Pahk” ad will do just that: Get customers to consider Sonata, and realize a mainstream car includes important new technology.

Jeep / Groundhog Day. This is the other spot that rose above the rest. Bill Murray reprised the 1993 movie Groundhog Day, this time in a Jeep Gladiator, the truck of the year in several autowriter / magazine competitions. It’s funny, it’s nostalgic, and if you don’t know Jeep makes a pickup truck in Punk’n Metallic orange paint and the doors and top come off (you do it yourself), now you do.

The concept of Groundhog Day the movie is weatherman Bill Murray is caught in an endless time loop that restarts each day when he wakes at 6 am to Sonny and Cher’s I Got You Babe, and has to again cover Groundhog Day in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania. It’s faithfully recreated in the ad, except no Andie McDowell this time. And to Jeep’s good fortune, the 2020 Super Bowl was played on Feb. 2, Groundhog Day. Appreciating this spot probably helped if you’re old enough to remember the movie from when it was in theaters. But if not, you should, since it’s in the National Film Registry for being deemed “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant.”

Amazon Before Alexa. Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi ponder what life was like before Amazon Alexa. The spot borders on slapstick: An 1800s upper-class woman in the parlor tells the maid, “Alexxa, turn the temperature down, two degrees,” the maid takes a log off the fire, tosses it through the window to the sound of shattering glass and a man’s muffled scream. A man in an 1800s city asks the newsboy, “Alex, what’s today’s news?” and he responds, “It doesn’t matter. It’s all fake.” Then in a 1970s Oval Office scene, a Nixon-esque voice commands, “Alicia, remind me to delete those tapes.” In the next room, an admin says loudly, “Yes, Mister President,” then softly, “I ain’t deletin’ …”

Conservatives are probably fuming if they conclude the “fake news” line makes fun of rather than echoes the current administration (hmm, who runs Amazon?), and liberals find it fair recompense for sitting through a patriotism-heavy, pre-game show that did conclude with a touching moment when four 100-year-old World War II veterans took part in the pre-game coin toss, led by Charles McGee, a pilot with the Tuskegee Airman that battled both the Germans and racism.

  Google / Loretta. An old man reminisces about his life with Loretta through old pictures Google calls up, along with a clip from their favorite movie, Casablanca. If there’s a “when they cry, they buy” ad, this is it. It’s going to make everybody wish their parents scanned or at least saved and ID’d their favorite photos for you to scan. Not in the commercial but important to know is that face recognition is getting so good – too good, in China – that the thing that used to hard to do, figuring out who that is in a 50-year-old photo, can now be done automagically.

Old Luxury (Going Away Party) / Genesis. Hyundai’s Genesis division rolled out its first SUV, the GV80, using young and hip Chrissy Teigen and John Legend as they make their escape from old people, oddly shaped dogs, and an old-world mansion into the GV80. From the staircase, she looks down and says, “To old luxury: You had a good run but now it’s time to choose you up a little bit … I give you young luxury.” Teigen then gestures to the open courtyard doors and points to the GV80 that – oops – hasn’t yet pulled up (“Where were you?” she asks driver Legend. “It was supposed to be a thing and you made it not a thing.”)

Never mind that Audi did essentially the same ad – “Old Luxury” (even the same name) – in a 2011 Super Bowl commercial. In this case, yuppie inmates inhabit a faux luxury prison (a mansion in LA) filled with affluent Boomers / Millennials. They unlock the cell bars and make their way toward a waiting car. A guard releases the dogs (showy hounds). When that doesn’t work, he’s ordered, “Hit ’em with the Kenny G,” and as Songbird plays, some refuse to leave while others do. Two escapees make it the courtyard, a Mercedes pulls up (you see the tri-star hood emblem) and one says, “Lancaster, no, it’s a trap,” and Lancaster replies, “Nonsense, my father owned one.”

But the theme works, and has for ages, going back at least to 1988 and “Not your father’s Oldsmobile.” Actually, it doesn’t always work. America’s oldest car brand, the brainchild of Barney Olds, was killed off in 2004.

The Other Car / Tech Ads

Porsche did a creditable job with “The Heist”: The Porsche Taycan EV sports car is spirited out of the Porsche Museum in Stuttgart. Once the heist is discovered, the guards argue / squabble over who drives which museum Porsche to track down the Taycan. That gives the viewer a chance to appreciate Porsche’s storied history and possibly begin to realize the Taycan is a continuation of Porsche history, not a bunch of greenies gone mad. The voices were a bit muffled, especially if you were watching the game with noisy friends, and works much better played on a PC with closed captions running.

A Toyota Highlander ad showed the car does indeed have a lot of room as the driver – 20 years ago this would have been a soccer mom commercial – picks up various people in comic distress from various scenes, ending with her son.

A third Hyundai group (Hyundai, Genesis, Kia) ad was for the upcoming Kia Seltos but more about the inspirational story of Oakland Raiders rookie Josh Jacobs and hard times growing up. It left some people wonder what Seltos is. Answer: The same platform as the subcompact and well-established Hyundai Kona, a bit roomier inside, and shipping this quarter.

T-Mobile and Verizon touted 5G service, which is still a ways off. T-Mobile used Anthony Anderson’s real-life, sassy, talky mom. Verizon essentially said that without 5G, emergency responders won’t get their job done as well.

Microsoft, whose Surface tablets are universally used (mandated) by the NFL, told the story of Katie Sowers, an assistant coach of the San Francisco 49ers. It’s a true story of perseverance and success, but the story was already being told in the two-week run-up to the Big Game.

Audi had an eTron Sportback spot run late in the evening after the kids were in bed, so they missed Maisie Williams singing “Let It Go” from Frozen.

GMC touted the rebirth of the Hummer as an EV in an ad with LeBron James. The Hummer is a ways off, so maybe it was okay to be low-key and laid back. This was not a call to action for hand-raisers.

Scout, the golden retriever owned by Weathertech founder David MacNeil, had his cancer cured at the University of Wisconsin vet school. MacNeil took a 30-second spot lauding the Badger vets and encouraging donations.  Wisconsin hasn’t gotten this much PR since this mentions by Wisconsin alum / Wall Street Journal sportswriter Jason Gay in his column. Nice touch – who doesn’t like retreivers? – and if MacNeil wants to spend six mil in hopes of getting at least that much in donations to Wisconsin, more power to him. Pets cure a lot of human ailments by being there for you.

Tom Brady made it to the Super Bowl (as one of the game’s 100 best players of the NFL’s 100 years) and also was a spokesmodel for a Hulu spot. Amazon promoted its drama Hunters. Quibi pushed its short video service that launches this spring (nothing more challenging than 10 minutes) and hopes you’ll start saying “I’ll be there in a Quibi.”

Best in Show (Non-Tech): Lil Nas X

The hands-down winner among non-tech or car ads was the Wild West dance moves showdown between Lil Nas X and Sam Elliott with Old Town Road playing in the background. (The guy strumming the guitar at the end was Billy Ray Cyrus.) Doritos footed the bill and reaped the rewards, as long as remembers remember it was Doritos and not Bud Light or Axe body wash. And yes, when Lil Nas rides off on a horse with cascading speakers, it pays homage to Sheriff Cleavon Little and the Gucci saddlebags in Blazing Saddles.

Fast and Furious 9: Everybody’s still trying to match Bullitt.

There also were ads that continued through the show, especially Tide Pods, the claim being that if you get a stain on your shirt before the game starts, you can much later wash – remember, wash, not eat detergent pods – and the stain comes out, at which point in the last ad, the guy gets his now-clean shirt stained again. There were plenty of ads for upcoming movies – Fast & Furious 9 (photo), Minions, Black Widow, No Time to Die – and the trailers’ special effects made people glad, or annoyed, they have surround sound speakers.

Fox ran a lot of promos for future programming, including one for the Daytona 500 where stock cars appeared to come onto and arc across the field. Conspiracy theorists will see hidden hands at work when a Super Bowl broadcast on Fox News (actually, Fox Sports, but don’t let facts get in the way) runs the Donald Trump commercial midway through the first period when everyone is watching and the Michael Bloomberg spot didn’t get airplay until late in the extended halftime. Fortunately, Kansas City and San Francisco made it close until the final minutes; three late Kansas City scores made for a 31-20 win. So most viewers stuck around all three hours of the game and J Lo / Shakira halftime.

A few ads got remade at the last minute to downplay or factor out death or helicopters (RIP, Kobe). So the death-and-resurrection of Mr. Peanut spot was pretty bland.

Pit People - an Early Access Review

Pit People is the latest from The Behemoth. They gave us Castle Crashers and Battleblock Theater. I have a lot of respect for Castle Crashers. That game is silly, accessible, and just good fun. There’s a lot of customization and a terrific soundtrack. The game’s wacky humor doesn’t always land for me, but as a 4-player couch co-op game there are few who have done it better. I’ve spent a lot of time playing that game with my 3 kids.

I missed out on Battleblock Theater altogether. It came out during a time when video games took a back seat to board games for me. I eventually tried it and appreciated it. I still might settle down and play it one day. The thing that stood out more than anything to me is Will Stamper’s hilarious voiceover work. From the ridiculous intro movie to the results screen (a substandard performance is met with “OH GOD GREAT JOB YOU-oh. Nevermind.” 

So when I saw that their new game was a strategy game, I bought in on the early access version as soon as I could.

What is it?

Pit People is The Behemoth’s take on a strategy RPG. This means turn-based combat on a hex-based map with different classes of characters equipping various weapons and armor. All with their unique style. Expect lots of farts, tongue-in-cheek humor, and a high level of ridiculousness. 

You start off playing as Horatio, a humble blueberry farmer whose farm is being attacked by hooligans. Green goo is raining from the sky, which seems to be coming from a giant wounded space bear. I think the narrator is the bear? He is taunting Horatio the entire time in another memorably funny opening scene. 

You are taught the game’s mechanics and controls here. It doesn’t take long. You queue up where you want your characters to move, and end your turn when you’re satisfied. They will attack how they see fit, and everything happens at once when you end your turn. Likewise, the enemies all move and attack at once. Combat is generally won by eliminating all enemies, and you get some gold and maybe some gear for winning. You can also recruit enemies into your roster.

You have a hub where you can receive missions, buy gear, and fight in the pit (either 3 rounds vs the AI or multiplayer matches against filthy humans). From here you travel around an overworld map, engaging or avoiding random battles and traveling to wherever your mission takes you. My missions so far have involved going out, winning a battle, and returning to collect rewards. There are also daily quests such as defeating a certain type of enemy, dealing a certain amount of damage in combat, or recruiting 3 fighters, and so on. 

Look

The Behemoth’s games have their own unique look, and Pit People is no exception. Walk through your city and all of the buildings are jauntily bouncing along to the beat of the music. You can equip items like VR goggles and a hot pepper in combat. My healer is a dish of ice cream with a mechanical arm mounted on its back; he heals my team by flinging ice cream at them (which hurts himself).

The customization tends more toward cosmetic than functional. This will feel like a blessing or a curse, depending on your feelings toward this genre. I tend toward the latter. Having a variety of functionally different gear to choose from is one of my favorite parts of These Games, and I’m not quite as invested in giving my people lobster claws and googly eyes. 

Sound

This game’s soundtrack is top notch. Combine that with Will Stamper’s deliciously evil VO work, and the result is a real treat. The jaunty electronic music never wears out its welcome. I’m a game music dork, and I very much hope they release an official soundtrack when the game hits 1.0.

I’ll pay.

Feel

I feel mostly conflicted while playing this game. I like the strategic turn-based combat, but I dislike how hard it is to discern who damaged who and how much. I like the game’s humor at times and love hearing Will Stamper, but at other times the silly story is a miss for me. It almost feels like a mad lib playing out on the screen. I like the variety in character types, but dislike how samey they tend to feel and how inconsequential gaining levels feels. 

The game might not be aimed at me, and that’s fine. I’m just not sure who the game is for. I’m simultaneously close to loving it and close to walking away from it.

Give this game a try if you like:

- The Behemoth’s aesthetic and humor - Rules-light strategy RPG’s (or if you’re curious)

Avoid this game if:

- Farts, poops, and a flying giraffe suspended in air by balloons being ridden by a man dual-wielding uzis sounds not fun to you. - You want your strategy games to be deep and intricate

tl;dr

I don’t know who this game’s audience is. The combat is too light and messy to be satisfying for hardcore strategy fans. And I can imagine fans of The Behemoth’s previous games being scared off by turn-based combat on hexes. 

The actions happening all at once makes it hard to keep track of who hurt who and with what. Sometimes things are on fire and I don’t know who caused it. Gaining a level can be life saver during combat because the unit is fully healed. Apart from that though, I can hardly distinguish a level 20 unit from a level 7 one. I assume small stat bumps are happening under the hood, but leveling up does not feel substantial. Ditto for gaining new gear. There are often very minor functional differences, if any, from one piece of gear to another.

This all contributes to making the game feel lighter and more accessible, and while I hope it pays off for them, I can’t help but feel disappointed. I’m sure there are plenty of outsiders who see strategy games as snoozefests featuring poring over stats on gear, digging through menus, and agonizing over combat abilities. Pit People might be a nice way to dip a toe into that pool if you’ve found these games too overwhelming to bother with.

Despite my complaints, Pit People has an undeniable charm that keeps me coming back. The combat, quick and no-frills as it is, is challenging and interesting enough. The game is close enough to full release that I don’t expect any major changes, so I’m comfortable writing this. In case it isn’t obvious, I don’t quite know how I feel about the game. I’m not sure it’s for me, and I don’t know who it is aimed at exactly. It feels like a passion project, which I definitely appreciate. I’d rather a team make the game they want to make rather than try to make a product that has been market researched and focus tested to death. 

More than anything, I like being in the worlds that The Behemoth creates. They make me smile. That’s as good a reason as any to keep playing a game, right?

Platform: Steam, Xbox One Developer: The Behemoth Price: $14.99 (Early Access price)
