Why is everyone on tumblr so sad? Like, who’s Mama I need to fight? Who’s daddy I need to beat? Like you guys are so silly, why are you so sad?

I’m gonna beat up everyone and everything that makes you guys sad.

I will fight a construct I swear to some divine power!

This is a little wink to the hexer TV show where little Geralt goes out to befriend a wolf - also Jaskier said "you can't befriend every animal" and Milek got all the genes from Geralt-horsegirl-of Rivia and Jaskier-let-me-pet-that-adorable-wildlife-Pankratz and is like. try me.

what do u think reigen smells like. i think he smells like mens deodorant and tobacco

i think that at work he has a really nice mens cologne that he wears, (not too expensive but not cheap) after all first impressions are very important. he feels professional when he wears it, like someone to be respected. like someone,, serizawa likes it and also feels a little intimidated when reigen walks by and he smells his nice cologne

i think the new office smells a little scentless and bright like spring flowers, and the old office smelled like tobacco and tiger-balm

i think naturally his home and casual clothes smell like a mix of different incense scents. he sort of smells like tiger balm, sea salt and hot pavement on a summer day (sweaty). if you stand near the balcony, it still smells faintly of cigarettes but its not as strong as it was since hes quit (and also scrubbed it clean when 10 year old mob said something "rude to say to grown ups, especially his mentor").

I know Dipper got the thing on his hand(I think?) to show their relationship but how does Bill feel about wearing a ring?

Yep, Dipper's got Bill's mark on his left palm, but currently Bill doesn't have anything. Not for any particular reason! Just because he hasn't thought to - he's not used to relationships with so many reciprocal aspects.

At some point either Bill's going to have a lightbulb go off and congratulate himself on a brilliant idea, or Dipper's going to bring it up to him. And if it's the latter, and Bill's lucky, it'll be for a romantic reason, and not a 'putting his foot down' one.

The "Dan Heng is Dan Feng" dogmatics annoy me a lot. It entirely brushes off one of the most interesting and prevalent questions posed by the game, incarnated by several characters and stories that give the question different hues with different potential answers, and a constant also in HI3, like a thread waving the two games together

I don't mind the direction they took shu's CL route but I do kind of mourn the loss of the "shu tries to get yuma's memory back" scene we never got. it would've been a really tough thing for him to do, but imagine how sweet it would be.

Yuma's sense of self is kinda on shaky ground, right? I'd say he's still recovering from his last "you aren't the person you thought you were" revelation, so if Shu's going to let him know that his entire memory and concept of the world around him is a lie, then he's going to have to be so gentle with him. He can't just invoke guilt and trauma like he did with Reiji. Besides, he doesn't want to linger on negative memories with Yuma anyway. Yuma hates it when he does that.

So he could try to remind him of good times they've had together instead. This is a change of pace for Shu. All of the happy moments they've shared have been punctuated by tragedy, and Shu is so used to fixating on that tragedy. This would be the first time we'd see him sit down with Yuma and talk about the happiness instead. And, even though Shu is talking to a brainwashed Yuma, this would be the closest Yuma's ever gotten to really understanding what a positive effect he's had on Shu. Because Shu has told the audience stuff like "Edgar taught me how to love life" but he's never told that to Yuma before. Recounting it like this could help both of them out! Yuma might get closer to getting his memory back, and just saying stuff like "there were hard times but I had a lot of fun with you" out loud could help change Shu's outlook. we r healing, baby!!

And of course, the thing that I believe that Yuma will appreciate the most is that if Shu did this, he'd be showing Yuma a great deal of trust. Shu has a LONG history of keeping things hidden from Yuma (he didn't even tell yuma that they were childhood friends! yuma had to remember that himself!!) and it wasn't till the end of Dark Fate that Yuma finally convinced him to tell the truth. Shu's scared, and he feels like he's protecting Yuma by keeping the truth from him. But that's not what Yuma wants or what he deserves. Yuma deserves to know the truth about where he came from, his relationship with Shu, how his village burned, etc. So now that Yuma has lost his memory again, if Shu has learned his lesson and listened to Yuma's feelings properly, he should know that Yuma deserves to know who he really is. Even if it's scary, he has to be brave and tell Yuma the truth.

It would be a real indicator of Shu's character development if he did that! But he doesn't. We can see that Yuma gets frustrated when he doesn't, too. In the Labyrinth End, Yuma believes that it's all his fault—he thinks he was left out of the plan because he wasn't trustworthy enough; that's why Shu kept him in the dark. If Shu could've trusted him more and told him that his memories were false, then Yuma would feel so much prouder later :') Because it's like he and Shu overcame a major hurdle together, not just in the plot but in their relationship.

When Shu explains in canon why he doesn't try to get Yuma's memory back, he kinda brushes it off by saying that "it'll make things too complicated." I don't think he's being honest at all. I think being truthful with Yuma is still so frightening to him, and perhaps it wasn't a step he was ready to take. That's fine. Character development relapses happen in Dialovers all the time, and it's part of what makes the characters and their relationships feel so real.

...but imagine how nice it would've been :')

Okay Leigh Bardugo fans:

Leigh said she’s announcing her new book this month. Are we thinking it’s the final Alex Stern or something else? I feel like it’s gotta be the last Alex Stern so what do we think it’s gonna be called? It’s probably going to follow the one-syllable-two word titles of the first two… I feel like it’s going to relate to Alex’s heritage… something like Raise Night. It’s almost definitely not that but it’s all I got. Share your ideas if you have any⬇️⬇️⬇️

Joltik care tip: Keep a small battery (button cell or AAA work fine) in your pocket in case the lil fella needs a recharge. Just set it next to them and they'll perk back up in no time! Just remember to dispose of used batteries properly!

Also never give a Joltik a lithium ion battery. They're called spicy pillows for a reason and you do not want to learn why at the expense of your little friend.

Once again saying I need to email Małgorzata Hendrykowska. Like 20 minutes into this talk she's rhapsodizing about contemporary descriptions of Stefania's unusually sweet, sonorous voice and her lost radio recordings and saying longingly that she would love to hear Stefania read aloud and know what her voice sounded like. She's just like me fr (very intense and obviously a little in love with Stefania Zahorska)

being able to actually talk about things in any queer environment is a nightmare of emotional manipulation ft. self victimization if you don't follow the exact script despite them all soapboxing about neurodivergency and anti ableism and Everyones Valid (its only ok to be not normal if youre not normal in the same way we're not normal; if your tone is off or you talk too long or you're not emotionally coddling enough or you're not picking up social cues normally or you bring up a buzzword topic thats Taboo In This Land You've Stumbled Into or god forbid even just Have A Differing Opinion then you're not the Good kindve neurodivergent like us youre actually probably Hitler and a nazi and a right winger and evil yep and you probably even actually don't have autism like us, gods most neurodivergent, most delicate and most correct flowers)
