#SHES OVER THE MOON RN

[ghostgirlgeist]

phyllis felt a grin tamper with what was once a temperamental expression, her delight struggling to keep itself as it dawned upon her that casper hadn't noticed the switch. excitement didn't even begin to describe it— no way. NO WAY !! the blonde nearly missed their words, too enveloped in her own discovery to be able to focus on both things at once, but she pulled it together enough to nod her head vigorously; ❛ —excited, for sure... ❜ phyllis giggled, a bit more ghoulish now, the pitch high and the vibrations of the laughter enough to make her hypothetical-bones rattle. unable to contain it, feeling like she was going to burst, phyllis came up off the ground just a hair, trying to hold her overwhelming urge to shriek as much as she could— a firework about to whistle up into the sky before exploding. ❛ having an open mind is such a good quality to have, ❜ the ghost complimented, words tight with withheld glee. gosh— what if she just reached out and touched them ?? oh, that'd be odd... you can't just touch strangers, phyllis !! the last time she had touched anyone had been her father and who knows how long ago that had been by now... the potential to have someone that experienced life like she did ?? it would make the world feel a whole lot less isolating. ❛ okay, well, what if i told you that i wasn't human ?? ❜ phyllis inquired, her eyes sparkling, lowering her voice to almost a mischievous whisper. her next comment was bold, borderline accusatory, but she was confident she was right.

❛ — and that i don't think you are either... ?? ❜

"I like the oddities, they're neat," they hummed, all of the antique shops, the clubs with neon lights. There was so much to take in here, Casper was sure they could spend much longer here than they had in the manor without growing bored. There was company, and always something to do! Even if they couldn't quite participate like they wished. It was enough to watch others enjoy it, they supposed. It had to be. "You do?" They were nodding before the question even came out, pleased with her response. "Me too, oh yeah! I'd be... well, I'd be excited!" Because that meant they were like them, or at least open to the idea of phantoms and such. Plus, it was really cool. They'd met a few people that weren't people, and it just made them feel a little less isolated, and it was fun learning their differences! Continuing to look at her as they spoke, they found themselves bouncing a little on the soles of their feet. "I'd want to know all about them and what they can do!"

Gene: what's a seaplane?

Louise: I wanna say it's a plane you can see? But that can't be right.

I LOVE WHEN CHILDREN ARE WRITTEN AS CHILDREN!!!!!!!!! This brings me so much joy!!

i think the reason why im so drawn to spirit tracks and pkmn scarvi is that having the legendary/princess as a companion rather than a goal that marks the games completion makes me feel satisfied the way i would after helping a friend

my brother always teases me about how I still havent finished botw after almost 7 years bc "id rather be out picking flowers" which i wont say is untrue. and yes i know Zeldas been holding off ganon for 100 years, yes i can get some sort of idea what her relationship with link was like by recalling memories and going through her diary. ive always loved botw for its unique storytelling and setting which makes it stand out, because it lets you get to know who you're saving.

but because theyre memories, it only works if theres something for the player to investigate that already happened. its retroactive (but effective nonetheless)

on the other hand, spirit tracks does something similar but instead of having the player try to piece together memories and interpret them as a spectator, you actually have an opportunity to get to know zelda yourself by talking to her and working together. besides making it a gameplay mechanic, giving the player control over how they interact with zelda makes it so much more personable.

and I find that making the goal feel personal instead of an obligation gives me more of a reason to work towards it. I know what kind of person botw zelda was but as the player, shes still very much a stranger to me. but spirit tracks zelda? thats my friend!!!! she invited me to go to the beach after we get her body back!!! i dont want to whip her to make her move faster thats mean :(

you know how hostage negotiators are trained to introduce themselves and get to know the person theyre negotiating with because its harder to hurt someone when you know what their favorite food is? its kinda like that, because it feels like im helping a friend than being told or led to do smth

and although i havent played scarvi myself, i feel an attachment to koraidon and miraidon even just watching playthrough clips because its like!! thats my weird scaly dog!! it loves sandwiches and we're friends!!! you know!!!!!!

to everyone who told me to read spinning silver on my uprooted post: I have and I thereby conclude that in this age of 21st century romance: if the ancient magic icicle known as the staryk king--who murdered countless generations in his winters, is capable of no romance beyond fae bargain, and lives in some giant glass crystal where soup is unimaginable horror and cold noodles are forever-- came and knocked and asked for my hand? Yeah I'm gone fuckers goodbye enjoy your situationships

I don't play limbus company but I have been informed of the Don news and am now rotating her violently in my brain despite only knowing second hand information about her. Depending on how her story plays out I might have to read limbus story stuff because just the concepts behind her character is making me go rabid why must she be so good she's banana blond

A small, paper-wrapped parcel is tossed Goumang's way. The item within the paper is a round little sculpture of a pouting rain frog, that upon being moved, emits a little tinkling rattle. It's a little glazed shaker ornament! The paper wrapping the item has a note written on it:

"Hey bb~! I bring this to you as a peace offering, lol… no, but seriously, he isn't worth the extra trouble, and I'm glad you've got your wits about you enough to pull yourself out of that conflict. Either way, I hope you and your Jiang-Shi like the Froggie~!"

Oh! This is… very cute actually. Thank you, Nuwa!

I'm still working on posts for thr responsibilities for each job in the Land's Star, but I also wanna start brainstorming lore stories as well. Like tales the elders would tell. I've got a few ideas. Eventually I might put up a poll to have people vote on which one I write first

[ghost-proofbaby]

aruna: listen bro it came to me in a vision

astarion, unimpressed and wishing they never discovered the tadpole connection so she could turn the tables on him and bother him at every given opportunity: have you considered having a vision of shutting the fuck up

[theinfinitedivides]

genuine question for our favorite f*ckass foster father figure tho. what do you mean you'll let her cut off his head after he dies. do you plan to drag his body back and let her desecrate it even further before you bury it???? if you bury it at all????

[cephalos]

One reason me and one of my best friends are a good combo is because she’s a very visual person who relies on notes and presentations she can review in order for things to process/stick with her, and I’m someone who loves to fuck around in editing and presentation programs who’s obsessed with making fun and visually appealing (but also highly functional and informational) slide shows and graphics about my favorite things. So whenever I get her into something new or explain something I’m really into I get an excuse to make a presentation and she gets a functional explanation tailor suited to the best way she learns. a treat for both of us
