Finding Love in Pixels: Embracing My Lesbian Crushes on Video Game Characters

In the pixelated realms of video games, I found myself drawn to more than just the gameplay. There was a captivating allure in the virtual world, where strong, confident, and wonderfully complex female characters existed. Their stories and personalities transcended the screen, making my heart skip a beat.

From Lara Croft's fearless adventures to the enigmatic charm of Morrigan from Dragon Age, I couldn't help but feel a unique connection. Their strength, intelligence, and resilience were qualities I admired and found incredibly attractive. As I navigated through the digital landscapes, I realized that these virtual heroines had captured my heart in a way that was different from my everyday experiences.

It was a realization that brought a sense of self-discovery and a deeper understanding of my own identity. These crushes on video game characters became a part of my journey, allowing me to explore and embrace my own lesbian identity in a safe and empowering space. The virtual world became a canvas for both adventure and self-acceptance, where my heart and my gaming controller were inextricably linked. 🎮🌈

Happy National Video Games Day! 🕹

Good morning~

[murderlacrosse]

this is something i talked about on twitter but. thoughts on chuuya's happiness or lack of in the mafia after the stageplay madness ?

i don't think chuuya is unhappy in the pm but do i think he is happy ? no. he's probably not even considering his own happiness tbh.

he shackled himself to the organisation bc of the dead bodies he carries on his back and bc he's desperately searching for a meaning/purpose.

he has not changed since he was 15, in contrast to dazai who's evolved and is somewhat seeking a healthier way of life. chuuya hasn't. he's someone who was very similar to dazai and who stayed that way as a 22 y old. he has a ton of issues he hasn't solved bc he doesn't face them.

and this is literally what this scene means - chuuya was opposed to dazai in that scene and only one of them changed. he literally stayed stuck as the teenager in search of a place to feel useful, clinging onto anything that'll give him a purpose.

and another very interesting thing we have is chuuya's character emo song Darkness My Sorrow :

"The world is a bird cage, faded in colour

Even if I lament, I can't get out of this prison

Even if I get tired of the night and tear off my shackles

That eye who sees eye to eye with Kierkegaard is also here"

the whole theme of it is chuuya saying he's trapped in a cage, but fuck everyone and the world bc you know what ? he'll persevere out of spite.

but in contrast to this way of thinking, he mentions Kierkegaard, who's a philosopher known for his theory on how choice gives humans profound anguish. which i think can be related to chuuya bc choosing probably gives him that anxiety - all the choices he has to make in regards to the sheep or the pm certainly are not easy ones and they take a toll on him. one that he'll never acknowledge bc it isn't the time to hesitate or talk about feelings, it's time to act, as he says in DA or below in his song :

"Even though it feels like I might be trapped, there is no room for sentiments

I'll push myself to the limit and dye everything jet-black"

and there's also this bit :

"I'd rather just fall than go back to being alone

Staring at the destroyed cage of this self, (GRAVITY)

Slowly, I sing, "Not bad at all.""

so while yes, he did choose to be part of the pm (and won't let anyone take this act of choosing away from him), imo we have enough material to consider that chuuya is a very self-sacrificial character, with suicidal tendencies to boot. i just don't see him as a happy person ? despite doing what he wants most (protecting the city and the ppl he cares about) and living life with his very chuuya-ish moral compass, i think that he's mostly on survival and work mode.

tldr; chuuya needs to leave the mafia and do his own thing after he gets his character development

This is my very first experience with Splatoon (on the Wii U). I’ve never played it before and I’m loving it. So fun 😄🎮

Dazai bit a policeman?? Maybe all his calling Chuuya a dog is projecting bc that is dog behavior right there

Get his ass.

(No, but there is a post on here on a similar line where Chuuya is actually cat-coded and Dazai has just successfully duped the fandom at large when the dog-like character is actually him... you should check that out but I can't find it atm...)

top 5 bsd theories? 👀

Ohhhh this is a hard one... I'll list the ones I can think of off the top of my head that make me go feral in the best way

Mori was involved in the Arahabaki project (this is videogamelover's theory! augh. the angst. and yet it makes perfect sense.)

Chuuya's original ability was ability enhancement (originalaccountname's theory I believe. it just makes a lot of sense and really heightens the contrast between skk)

Higuchi's ability is something really powerful but that cannot be frequently used (believe this was nobrainjustakutagawa's theory. there's a good exploration into the idea that Higuchi is a healer whose healing comes at a severe cost.)

Naomi is a manifestation of Tanizaki's ability that is completely sentient (I don't remember who wrote this one - only that it's a nice spin on the well-known Naomi is Tanizaki's construct made out of grief theory. It gives her more agency and raises Tanizaki's ability to quite frankly horrifying levels of powerful.)

Atsushi has two abilities (shamelessly plugging my own theory because I actually find myself wondering if it's true!)
