guy who so desperately tries to find god. who wants to have faith in a higher authority to guide him out of the hole he's in. from the weight of guilt from simply existing, as the person he is. but every time he thinks he's answered his higher calling it turns out he's made the Morally Incorrect choice and his path to goodness and holiness was the road to the devil all along
#now trusting god will give you a way out? there's your real crime!!!#guy betrayed by the protestant promise of a direct connection with god. but is also somehow. joan of arc.#see he never achieves actual martyrdom tho bc he's not allowed to stay dead lmaooo#sam somehow the most unintentionally catholic AND protestant character of all time#dean the atheist who sees religious predestination as the curse it is from the get go. framed as the narrative's Real Moral Authority#but also in the process reifying patriarchal familial power n authority. very very important Value of the Church#i don't think it's that deep. the show's attempt at critiquing christianity. but the way it reinforces christian cultural values???#'religious predestination and absolute faith in a higher authority...bad'#nice nice ok tell me more?#“so you should put your faith in family. in your patriarch (big brother)”#?????????#the thematic incoherence of it all. it's like the world's stupidest puzzle box to me. i can't leave it alone.#sam = maybe i can find god thru following my destined path. wait oh shit.#cas = maybe i can find god thru rebellion and seeking my own destiny. wait oh shit.#dean = god is fucking dead and me i also feel not so good#the “guy who so desperately wants to find god parallel” <- me coming out as a secret sastiel fan#both of them...finding god in de-[sniper on the roof kills me in one shot]#spn bible studies#j.txt

a lesson on good karma digimon survive week 2024 day 4: supporting characters
#digimon#gomamon#digimon survive#survive week#survive week 2024#rambling ahead. you don't have to read the tags beyond bc there's nothing that important tbh... you can just look at the art...#exhausted from being out and doing housework yesterday. then got a last-minute job with very urgent deadline today#finished everything but yeah basically i did anything but art so#irl do be like that aint it#anyway it's been a long time since i played survive and my memory isn't that good#but i always remember the part where we had to protect the gomamon#and later they showed us a path via the dam allowing the team to continue exploring#it reminded me of just how important it is to be nice and do good things whenever and wherever possible#and be mindful with the not-so-good things you do and say#be it good or bad. karma is real even if you don't know when it will get back at you#and you know in visual novel settings. whatever choice you make really determines what happens later on#yeah believe it or not i end up thinking stuff like that by helping a bunch of adorable seal mons...#mmm i'm officially behind now so i might as well take my time while also rest a bit haha ;;#this week has been fun with survive week tho fr. even though i came in unprepared (when will i change)#gotta keep surviving#png

Hi Mary hiiiiiiiiii
Character story
The silent Bohemian night reigns with an underlying uneasiness to it. You can't help but feel as if something sinister lurks in the horizon, just beyond where your eyes can reach..
In an attempt to ignore the chill underneath your skin,You reminisce about what has led you to this point in life…
Your memories are often hazy. Vague, unclear recollections of past plights and terrors scattered throughout the years you clung to life. Your own hardships botched your ability to recall much beyond blurry faces and muffled voices.
You've been alone for as far as you can remember. Alone together with countless other children in a place disguised as a safe haven, the predacious gaze of the black hearted vultures deemed "holy" had always been the only eyes set on your kind.
Carrying away naive children to the darkest corners of the building, never to be seen again. You were one of them, or you would have been had you not…
What did you do? What happened then?
…
You can't recall. Maybe that's for the best.
You do remember swearing to whatever gods are out there to never set foot near that place again, let alone stay in the presence of the men in dark tunics.
The merciless streets of prehevil became your new home. For weeks on end you crawled aimlessly through the dirty alleys while the townsfolk steered away from you on sight, staring down at your deteriorating physique as if you were a filthy creature, barely even human.
Rummaging through the garbage for food scraps became an everyday occurrence, you didn't even mind the rancid smell anymore, it was certainly better than when you had to feed off of rats and dirty crawlers to survive.
It didn't take long for you to meet others like you, but much like the townsfolk, the children were not kind. The teachings of the streets instilled in the street urchins only one instinct…
Convince the children to lend you a piece of their food. (Gain persuade)
Despite their treatment of you, you didn't retaliate. You knew those children were no different from yourself; lost, scared and hungry, doing everything in their power to remain living.
And so you tried to reason with them for a scrap of moldy bread. They yelled at you, you tried again. They threw trash and rocks at you, you tried again. And again. And again.
They didn't budge. As the moon took a hold of the night sky, you slept with an empty stomach. That's alright, you had become well acquainted with the feeling by now.
Steal the food for yourself (Gain steal)
You tackled the street urchins and pried the moldy bread from a boy’s scrawny hands. You ran as fast as you could, but your frail legs couldn't outrun the enraged children.
You were knocked down and beaten senseless by your peers, it hurt so much you wondered how you were still alive once you woke up the next day.
For the following weeks, you lived in the darkness of the sewers as your frail body struggled to heal its injuries. The smell was atrocious, but it kept you hidden from their wrath.
You soon fled to the old town, in its slums an abandoned shack sheltered you from the cold Bohemian nights. The rundown alleyways had danger lurking around every corner, but the shared pain of poverty amidst its citizens made you feel as if you're right where you belong.
As the years went by your mind grew sharper but your body remained rather frail, you watched as the street children from your time met unfortunate ends one after the other, and in their absence you found more children lurking the streets.
You took it upon yourself to show them the ropes, give them some of your belongings and share a bit of the little food you had. When it rained relentlessly you opened your doors to shelter them, when they wanted to chase a better life beyond prehevil you helped them hop on the train wagons.
Sometimes you went along, but you always found yourself back in the streets of the old town, alone once again. That's alright, it's how it's always been. By now you know this place like the back of your hand, as much as you're looked down upon, you know of a couple ways to get by…
Search for gigs around the town (Gain ×1 lucky coin, ×2 moldy bread and beer)
There's always someone in need for your services in the city, that is; the taxing manual labor they didn't want to do themselves. You were hardly ever paid with money, even when you insisted, your employers would rather reward your services with leftovers or worn out clothes.
You never complained, it was better than nothing.
Harvest goods from the wild (Gain ×2 green herb, turnip and carrot)
The woods around Prehevil can be surprisingly resourceful if you know where to look. Over time you learned how to spot vegetables growing amidst the weeds and that some greens are quite helpful against certain illnesses.
You found the solitude of the forest rather comforting.
A lifetime of fending for yourself taught you plenty of ways to acquire the bare minimum to keep living, some in ways you would never have imagined. Strange cultists pay a hefty price for the meat squirming inside your body, witty townsfolk give you a quick buck for some strange plants you found in the woods, and the train wagons you ride in cary so many goods you're certain no one will notice if you takes a little bit for yourself.
But life has never been kind to you, even now it seems to strive to rip the little you have from your cold trembling hands. One evening you returned to your shack being raided by a gang of thieves, you tried to fight them off only to be quickly overwhelmed and beaten by those men like a punching bag.
You laid on the ground, battered and bruised as the thieves laughed at your expense before taking their leave. There was nothing but pain left for you, everything hurt, you could hardly breathe…
Return home (Gain endure)
You swallowed the blood pooling in your mouth and crawled to what remained of your home, further staining the dirty mattress you slept on.
You had never felt such visceral pain before, as if your body had been set ablaze and your bones had pierced through your lungs. Your heart however thumped the urge to keep on living, and as such, you endured the suffering.
Chase the burglars (Gain ×1 rusty pipe and terminal surge)
The blood pouring down your mouth filled you with a glistening ire you had never felt before. Against all odds, you stood up and charged at your abusers like an enraged animal.
Pipe in hand, you hit them until their bloodied bodies stopped moving, mangled beyond recognition. You bashed the last one’s skull open before collapsing from exhaustion besides the corpses.
You have no recollection of how you survived the weeks after the incident, but you made it, and that's all that matters. As long as your heart is still beating you have time to get your life back on track no matter how much you have lost thus far.
There’s even a new job opportunity for you; the owner of the old hotel needs someone to clean the pipes, he was even kind enough to give you an old mattress and let you sleep in the storage room as long as you had everything done by the weekend.
As payment for your services, what did you request?
Medical goods (Gain ×2 blue vial and cloth fragment)
Financial compensation (Gain ×20 shillings)
Food and drinks (Gain ×2 dried meat and vodka)
The feeling of the soft mattress cushioning your malnourished body after a long day of work brings a calm that knows no equal.
For a moment, you forget about the pain that has tainted every day you've lived thus far. allowing yourself to be enveloped in soft sleep...

I think it's so funny to decorate room by room because you can tell which room I have no clue what to do with
#stardew valley#sdv#video games#gaming#sdv farmhouse#the junimo plant is LITERALLY the best furniture item#it's SUCH a good space taker#i think the last room is just going to be a partial indoor greenhouse and butterfly farm#and then just a reading nook#i like that the island house is literally just the farmer's. it would be cool if your spouse could visit it when they go to the beach tho#but like. it's JUST the farmer's space. you don't have to worry about furniture obscuring pathing of the spouse/children#so when i decorate this house i always like to go 'what would *i* want in this space'#i honestly really like how this house is turning out. i didn't think it would take the direction it did lol#it's a very blue house which is surprising because my favourite colour is yellow and i usually decorate with it primarily

i want to talk about leda sooo much but i keep remembering that doing so means i have to own up to the fact that i not only made her survive the literal astronomican soul sucking process on terra via implied divine providence but also admit that During the soul sucking she had a god-emperor-bass-boosted supervision of like 45% of the plot of rogue trader and also a good chunk of dark age of technology history as well so now she literally thinks shes the honest to god blue check verified iconoclast prophet of big E himself
#oc: leda#I FEEL LIKE THE MOST ANNOYING PERSON ALIVE GUYS I SWEARRRRR MY BACKSTORIES ARE NOT NORMALLY#THIS MAIN-CHARACTER SYNDROME. but also idk why i feel so bad like its a fictional story and a Fake character so#whatever. who cares. im having fun and if she was a man nobody would care. NGMDMFJFJ#TO CLARIFY — she survived the astronomican soul sucking because the machine spirits around her pod/coffin#malfunctioned and stopped working about 25 minutes in (felt like 100 years but yknow)#so like its open to the possibility of just being a coincidence but given leda also worships the omnissiah#she took this as a sign that both the emperor and the omnissiah love her soooo much and think shes so hot and cool#and allowed her to experience a divine vision and tasked her on a mission to lead humanity on the correct path#to be clear— getting your soul sucked by the god emperor of humanity would make you Insane so#yknow. i do think she has lost her mind by this stage even tho outwardly she recovers as best as one can#but like. yeah. it COULD have been a divine imperative from god but it was more likely shes just coping with the trauma#and also deeply prideful and full of hubris. lol. BUT MAYBE SHES RIGHT. IM CERTAINLY PLAYING HER ARC LIKE SHE IS#and i think its so funny that shes like God tasked me to bring peace and love to the galaxy and i will even if i have to kill#every creature in the galaxy to do it 😍 NGNDNFKDKMF#ITS ALSO FUNNY BC SHES NOT EVEN THAT GOOD OF A PSYKER FNDNDMJGND SHE FAILED THE TESTS ON TERRA FOR A REASON 😭

#oh lads. lads. lads. lads. im being sucked back into the world of academia#i dont even kno what happened. a week ago i was crying bc i was like: this is impossible. i simply cannot do this.#and then i went into the lab sunday and miraculously i was able to easily read some papers. like i dont kno how to discribe how baffling it#was. like reading papers is like pulling teeth and this was somehow easy. i think maybe it was bc i let myself get distracted and wander#thru it. and then after that i got so much done this week and i was tired but having fun. and like the thing is: i fucking love evolution#it's like puzzling out the code for life in both a metaphical and literal sense. its fucking incredible. and my project is also very#interesting. if a bit intimidating in its scope. ya kno. just in the way photosynthesis is generally intimidating#but i think i have a strain thats lost chlf which is really interesting and my advisor said we might have the money to try some crispr for#my cyano children. hypothetically. maybe. and i get to do some poking around in genomes. theres so so much to love there#how could i possibly want to do anything else? and yet. and yet. here at the end of the week im so wrung out and i kno i just have to start#again on sunday and i kno im gonna have to step it up in terms of reading if i want to make it through a committee meeting and proposal#defense. not to even mention a comprehensive exam. and what do i get at the end of all this? a lifetime of academia draining my life away.#bc what i do is so academic. so whats the point? its just so frustrating.#and on top of that ive got all this data from my old lab that i kno i have to work on. and i will. i will. but with what time?#anyway the point is. i can see a path forward now where i stay here and decide the pain will be worth it despite not knowing where im going#after that. im just so tried#but right now it feels like im gonna stay until someone kicks me out#but that doesnt exactly make me feel happy. ugh. but if i stay i want to get my old pi to come here and give a seminar. ill warn her how#intimidating the department is tho. we've had 2 talks in the last 2 weeks that were... not good. particularly the one this week#like she couldnt answer a single question they thru at her and didnt seem to kno her data sets. it was hard to watch. anyway. i just want#to see my academic mother again. send me back to the desert! let me rot in a field full of sage#but send me back to the hills of an older mountain range. where i can climb sandstone cliffs and lay in carpets of moss. except i wouldnt do#that bc of all the ticks and threat of lyme disease...#anyway. im still tired. still sad. and there doesnt seem to b a way out#unrelated

resisting the urge to be annoying and ramble about how kieran's arc wouldn't really work if transplanted onto hop or wally without changing core parts of their own personalities + stories + motivations, essentially ( most likely unintentionally ) pigeonholing them as the " weaker rival " archetype despite how all three grow far beyond that.
#listen kieran's arc is extremely interesting but there are so many factors that play into it being wholly his ya know?#both hop and wally come from wildly different environments and upbringing than kieran that don't facilitate >>>#either of them going down similar pathes as kieran not to mention the clear difference in personalities and temperments#i'm all for a good au of course i just think saying that hop & wally should've been like kieran is missing the point of their own arcs#and failing to recognize what makes them interesting rivals in their own right#that and i think kieran deserves to have their arc as something that's uniquely theirs#idk i love hop kieran and wally a lot and they're all so interesting in their own ways despite all their similarities#i don't wanna seem like i'm telling ppl not to have their fun either which is why i'm not jumping immediately into making a big post abt it#tho if ppl poke me w/ a stick enough i'd be willing to make a more in-depth post about this#bc this is just the basics of my thoughts on this i could go into greater detail#but i'll stop here for now#mj.txt

HOW ARE YOU SO GOOD AT THIS!? I’m writing a villain x hero en and it’s all over the place please teach me your ways
aaaaa im glad you like it!!! honestly it depends what kind of Teach you need, so i can give you a simple run down of what i do??
your first mistake - have faith in yourself!! its always easier to beat yourself up over something youve read 1000 times. this is very ironic of me to say, overdramatic pessimist that i am, but its genuinely the first part of making your writing good!!! have faith in your writing and have faith in others to enjoy something you made!!!
now you think your writing is hot shit that is about to become even hotter shit with some tweaking! im more of a long form writer (with a novel and a tv episode written by yours truly, i clearly dont know when to stop) so writing shorter stuff has been a challenge! maybe thats why you feel like your story is a little all over the place - you might be trying to fit a novels worth of story and excitement into 1000 words, and thats hard!
because i write longer stuff usually, i find it important to be very precise with the concept. one of my recent stories, for example - a supervillain is hiding their power, which has the resolution of answering the question of why - because it turned out to be ridiculous. having small concepts with easy solutions (or leaving them more open-ended) is a good way to condense stories to be shorter.
and everyones least favourite advice - practise! i have an unfair advantage with a degree in Creative Stuff. writing has been a massive part of my life for almost 3 years now, and honestly having that time to test what works and what i like has been huge in terms of improving my writing. and youre probably the same! im not about that kinda 'write everyday or youre not a writer' so-called advice - all you need is a little bit of time every so often to sit down and try things out.
ive really found a niche i love with the heroes and villains community here, and thats really boosted my confidence and my skills - because thats all writing is! if you like writing your hero x villain story, then youre already halfway there!!!
anyways this is getting mega long so tldr: practise makes perfect, choose concepts that are easy to resolve quickly, and learn to appreciate that your writing is amazing and so are you!
#ask#not writing#thank you for this!!!! im flattered you think i am capable of being a teacher#(last time i tried to teach someone something i made it more confusing)#hopefully this helps you even a lil tho! the key is to enjoy what you do!!#and i mean#you wanna improve. thats a good sign that youre already on the right path#and good luck with your story :D

Would it. Be too diabolical if i put lucanis in the tailored to elio version of the regret fade prison.
#varric is still making it into the regret fade prison he's just not the main attraction anymore#neve... so sorry bestie but i dont think her relationship with elio is good enough for her to have the kind of impact the prison requires#harding.... maybe. she and elio were better friends the problem is as a crow idk if he would be that sentimental#about her sacrifice. like i could see him explain it away as her choice#viago is obv making it into the regret prison. elio regrets tarnishing house de riva's reputation#he regrets putting viago in such a tough spot. he regrets looking to viago for familiar ties even if it was a bit long ago#elio's twin luar might make it there too. regrets trying to force a deeper bond with them even tho they were obv not that interested#also in a fucked up way. he comes to regret not being able to help minrathous more because it hurt luar's best friend#neve rather than just because it hurt neve period. (+ it forced luar to take sides and they chose neve so...)#there are also some more nebular regrets idk how to include just yet. elio following the crow's path and using his body to get info#during contracts even if it means he has to suffer thru pretending to be a woman.#elio knowing his ex loves him but choosing his own methods of doing contracts over said ex and causing them to break up#the kind of person elio chose to be. the kind of personality type he's boxed himself into (jokester/shoulder to cry on/defers to his#superiors/doesnt shoot above his station) and how he cant escape that anymore#and the most diabolical one. how elio regrets thinking he could ever find a family within the veilguard#and how maybe he even regrets falling for lucanis (elio did NOT get the dessert thing. he's operating in a lucanis#doesnt reciprocate his feelings wavelength) and how him being so pushy mightve led to lucanis being turned off#from pursuing him while also adding unnecessary stress onto lucanis

weird man dad possibly willing to let his 'child' go for the opportunity to become immortal and avoid his crippling fears of dying? ngl.....does check some boxes re: my type of muse
#.muse ( emmrich volkarin )#i am anti-lich path for emm tho#vehemently#i think he's just that scared of dying#and lichdom appeals to him for that specific reason more than any thing else#and that is NOT a good reason to do it#lichdom = his cowardly way out of things imho

ok so is it me or are like at least half of builds gonna be using shield charge on their weapon swap for mobility?
#path of exile 2#like it has a cooldown but beggars can't be choosers#unless we can find better mobility options ofc#only other options I'm seeing are stampede and *maybe* puncture or lightning warp#don't think I've seen footage of puncture yet so idk if it has enough distance to be useful but it requires a target anyway so probably bad#lightning warp seems too conditional to me but maybe good if used well? useless on bosses tho#stampede seems okayish but costs your swap's onhand - good for minion builds that need to keep their offhand?

Just re-read beebo and I am no longer insecure about too much dialogue in game. I am great at dialogue.
#i am indeed the type of person who will laugh at their own jokes#but also its actually good??? It got a really good ending??? I highly enjoyed it???#for some reason i have been under the impression that my writing and storytelling sucks and i need to do better in the game#but turns out its good!! so THATS why people like it!#a new insecurity has arrived: what if the game is not as good#i do think the comic is definitely more romance focused while im trying to make the game more mystery focused with a s.ow burn romance#the romance is crucial though. somehow it is#i will get them different endings tho thats a thing i want. even if theres no path branching to keep it close to the comic#i want the final decisions (and some early decisions) to make and impact in the end
