My love letter to Death's Door

First of all, I suck at video games, I don't play them enough nor do I finish or follow through. Picture the worst person playing an RPG fighting game and that's me.

So the idea of me not only completing this game but also falling in love with it is crazy. Even when I wanted to tear my hair out every time I saw that fucking "Death" title card. I fell in love with the lore, characters, soundtrack, and it's humor. God I got so attached to the characters I almost cried so many times in this game. The characters, though they were in a fantasy world with magic and immortal souls, were relatable and had their own quirks that they stood out from each other really well. I devoured everything about this game and I'm still hungry for more. There's so much in this game that it could take one hours to go through all of its nooks and crannies of little easter eggs and details.

No other game has done to me what Death's Door has, which was it made me invested in it as a whole. It was so unnecessarily hard but still easy to play for a measly little shit like me. I get it, sometimes it stays under people's radar as it came out in 2021 and looked like every other indie fighting game. It sure did for me, but I don't what made me buy it I just wanted something new and different rather than play Hollow Knight or Animal Crossing again for the 100th time this month.

I love indie games, each has it's own unique aesthetic and you can tell the aesthetic this game goes for and it hits to a T. I was really sad when I found out that all of their vinyls and concept art that Devolver Digital had on their merch store was sold out :(

I could talk about this game's lore for hours. The same goes for the great soundtrack. No one else I know has even heard of this game. Whenever I try to explain it, they kind of just nod and look at me weird. Oh, you're fine with playing games like Zelda and Diablo IV, but this little crow with a sword and his little green friends make you frown?! What?!

Thank you for coming to my TED Talk (autistic rant).

I'm proud of the head but that's as far as it goes. ;-;

I never completed Diablo 3 in the Barbarian class So i’m doing that now. Read a study about how women and enbys are less likely to play a man in a video game than men are, so I picked the male Barbarian. Named him Iroh. He specializes in fire and electricity, and is a slut.

Here he is in his Infernal Red and Elegant Magenta looks!

Hmm 🤔

Me seeing a white haired male character anywhere:

book review || Reaper of Souls by Rena Barron

video review || Final Book Support Group Readathon -- Reading Vlog 215

Alright, I still love the world-building in this series, but I do think there was a lot of stuff repeated in this book from the first that wasn’t really necessary. We see a lot more of the gods and their role in the war taking place, which did keep me really engaged, as well as the exploration of one of the god’s character. I was especially all over their perspective and those chapters really kept me reading. The atmosphere was spooky and unsettling again, really dragged me into the story, which definitely helped keep me invested, as there was A LOT going on. Multiple different plots and political schemes were overlaying each other in this book, and the alternating perspectives did make these a little difficult to follow at times and also very slow-moving.

Arrah felt like she’d really grown from the first book and I loved seeing the complexity of her character now that she has so much on her shoulders. We also had Rudjek’s perspective and I enjoyed getting more of his sassy personality and more about his anti-magic, but I was annoyed that we didn’t see the major action sequence we’d been building up toward. I would have liked to see more development of his character. The new elements that kept popping up to keep these two apart just made me ship them harder. They deserve to retire in the countryside and live a quiet life after all the strife they go through in this book! However, there is another romance plot with a main character, plus multiple smaller ones in the background, that did take some of the spotlight from Arrah and Rudjek.

With the multiple plots, I do think it was easy to get lost, for information to be repeated too many times, or for certain plot conveniences to really stand out by comparison. Toward the end of the book, there were some plot twists that were surprising, but when explained, I couldn’t help wondering how the characters didn’t/wouldn’t have picked up on these things.

All in all, still had a great time with this one and am VERY intrigued to see where the last book will end!

3.75 / 5 stars

Love when Vetinari isn’t even really a character in a book but he shows up for a second to be a bitch. Something’s happening in the city and he’s like “well a thing is happening and I don’t like that 🤨” and then disappears again

You swear the first time wasn't on purpose. You had just logged off the call with Grim and found yourself warm and sexually frustrated, and you swear you were just trying to blow off some of that frustration. You forgot, however, that his soul was literally linked to yours.

Grim had to call off work because he wasn't able to calm himself over seeing your fingers stuck inside of you and the way you moaned his name when you came around them.

He would rather die than admit you had that kind of effect on him.

The second time? When you deduced that he couldn't stare you in the eye because he watched you finger yourself? Was totally on purpose.

You tell Grim good night as usual, and you find yourself annoyed again, an abnormal heat in your abdomen as you frown. You frown, but your lips curl upward when you remember Grim can now see everything you do. So, you rummage through your drawer for lube, squirting it on your fingers as you slide one in, Grim's name slipping past your lips as you slide it all the way in.

Then, you slide a second;

and a third.

You gasp as you speed up, back arching as you feel yourself get closer, Grim's name a mantra as you gasp and twitch around your fingers, pretending they're his instead, crying as you feel yourself cum, legs twitching as you make a mess between them. You sigh in relief when you do, pulling the tissues to wipe your fingers clean as you click on your laptop to text him.

To Grim: Missing you (づ￣ ³￣)づ

Grim sits in his cold shower on the other end, desperate to get the red off his skin. You were going to kill him.

Bleach: sitting on their lap in public headcanons

With Ichigo, Renji, Grimmjow and Yoruichi. x reader

Ichigo:

 🍓 I feel like Ichigo would be more fine with you sitting on his lap in a semi-public place, like at the park, library, waiting for the bus/train outside the city or if you are out in the evening together.

 🍓 If it’s too many people around it would be too much and he doesn't like the stares and the whispering!

 🍓 Of course he wouldn't accept it until you have been together for a couple of months at the very least. And you will most likely be the one starting it. Ichigo will be blushing quite a lot in the beginning but be more comfortable after every time. 

 🍓 He would prefer to not do it infront of his friends either, because they probably would make fun of him and that would make him even more embarrassed, but as we know, Ichigo wouldn't exactly let it slide either. 

“Renji, you are just jealous because you are still single!” 

“HUH?! I’M NOT!!” 

 🍓 However Ichigo prefers to be home alone with you and cuddle together without staring, judging eyes. 

Renji:

 🍍 This boy has been watching way too many series and movies by now. Taking inspiration from different romance shows and adding it to your relationship so that he can be more romantic and be the best boyfriend there is! 

 🍍 I can see him being the one who straight out asks you about it when you two are watching movies together and then regret it because it sounded so stupid! 

 🍍 If you accept it, Renji will be so nervous and awkward and be blushing the whole time. He’ll be wondering if you can hear his fast going heartbeat through his chest. ‘Why does it look so easy in the movies???’ If you start talking about the movie later he will have no idea what youre are talking about.

 🍍 Renji would also be more fine with semi-public places while being awkward and blushing most of the time even after doing it for months. He would rather have you on his lap in privacy and cuddle. Then you can have all his attention and no one would disturb you. ;) 

 🍍 If you were sitting on Renji's lap in a semi-public place and his friends would see you two like that, teasing would have a great effect on Renji at that moment.

“SHUT UP ICHIGO!! NOBODY ASKED FOR YOUR OPTION!!” 

“Geez Renji, y/n will go deaf if you scream like that”

Grimmjow:

 😾 This boy is a little complicated. You sitting on his lap is both prideful and embarrassing. He wants you to sit on his lap in the public and show off his amazing s/o and that they are obviously taken. But at the same time he’ll want you all by himself ALONE with no prying eyes. 

 😾 It’s the same with Grimmjow, you’ll have to be the one to start sitting down on his lap first, after that he’ll be the one who will grab you the most. He’ll find your physical affection very comfortable and calming. 

😾 Romance and relationship in general is something he is lacking, which is something he gets to experience and learn more and more with you. In the beginning he probably wouldn't be too fine to be lovey dovey in public, then it would be embarrassing. But the longer you are together the more pride and love he takes in you and your relationship so later on you can basically sit on his lap whenever you want and wherever you want, unless he’s out and fighting or training. Grimmjow will be happy either way and he won't take peoples crap either!

Yoruichi:

🐾 Yoruichi is literally a cat. She has been sitting on your lap in her cat form long before you have been in a relationship. So of course it’s no big deal! 

🐾 It doesn't really matter when or where, as long as she gets your attention and affection, but don’t forget to let her sit in your arms too! Yoruichi loves both and people who staring doesn't affect her. 

“Y/n what we do is none of other people’s business, just ignore them okay?”

🐾 Yoruichi wouldn't mind sitting with you in front of her friends either. Kiskue and the others wouldn't judge. Everyone in that shop is so used to your relationship by now. 

🐾 But don’t forget that Yoruichi also has a lot of energy and likes to mess with people and prank them, so watch out! Like that time when she was sitting in Byakuya's garden with you in her lap and was making out with you in front of him just to get a reaction. Byakuya was not happy.

“You are a disgrace…Leave immediately!”

“What? Are you uncomfortable? Or just jealous, hmm?” 

“...Bankai, senbonzakura..”

Has Soul met Reaper? If not, then will he? I need to see a reaction between the two, especially since Soul is technically helping Reaper with his job!

"Has Soul met Reaper?"
