What’s Absolute Destiny? @harpes-pokeblogging-adventure
Normally, I wouldn't answer because it says you have a bisharp, but I'm making an exception because it's rude not to help people who don't know something.
Absolute Destiny is a game originally made for the Nintendo DS. It has a lot of mixed reviews online, but I don't really get all the reasons people say it's bad. They released a remake for it on the Switch a few months ago that has brought a ton of people into the fandom, but I don't have a Switch, I just played the original.
Absolute Destiny is a game about an absol person (all the characters are anthropomorphic pokemon. think kinda like pokemon crossing but a different artstyle) named Lucky, whose father is His Most Disastrous Majesty, King Tragedy, king of the absols. The absols are a group of evil pokemon who use their power to cause disasters and tragedies to control all the pokemon of the world. In the past, the arcanines opposed the absols and other evil pokemon and stopped them from destroying everything, but that changed when King Tragedy killed the king of the arcanines and captured all the rest.
Lucky decides he doesn't want to rule the world like his father, and hates the thought of being a tyrant like him and runs away. Once he leaves, though, the spirit of the king of the arcanines comes to him and tells him only he can save the world and sends Lucky on his epic quest.
Lucky travels the world, defeating the members of his father's council who have been assigned to control parts of the world, and making new friends along the way! His teammates are Clip, the manectric who was raised by mareep and acts as their protector, Willow, the feraligatr who was exiled for trying to start an uprising against the absols, and Jingle, a chimecho who's family was imprisoned for trying to heal the king of the arcanine.
Together they take down all of the evil dark types, and free the arcanines after defeating Lucky'a father! At the end, Lucky turns into an arcanine because of him rising above his evil family and background, and becomes the new king of the arcanine before banishing all the dark types for their evil.
A lot of people love the game because of how progressive and inclusive it was for the time, with a story about rising above your background to become a good person, Clip being implied to be trans in the original kantonian version, Willow mentioning having two dads, and Jingle's design turning the ribbon on chimecho into a hijab, among other things. A lot of people also hate the game for it being "anti-dark type" by portraying them as evil, but dark types are evil, so???
It's a good game!

you know. when i first picked up ace attorney i thought perhaps the thing between edgeworth and phoenix was being exaggerated but there is no subtext in this game. they really are like this. there’s no reading into anything they literally are just like this
#every time they talk to each other it is the gayest thing i have seen#also right before this Edgeworth makes a comment about being at Trucy’s magic show a day or so before like#you guys are coparenting ok got it lol#absolutely insane#im almost done with dual destinies i like it a lot!!#narumitsu#ace attorney

one of rgu's best takes about rape and incest is that rape and incest are not deviant. they are exceedingly normal. they are, in fact, the logical extension of patriarchal romance and the patriarchal family -- the same logic that underpins those structures facilitates abuse, rape, incest, and csa. many people, even those who nominally understand the idea of rape culture, conceive of rape as a deviation from cultural mores, and even more people view incest as an aberration, a twisting of the Family (which is Good) into something unnatural and evil. but rgu correctly identifies that rape and incest are outgrowths of patriarchal society, not alien intrusions upon it. incest is merely a symptom of the problem which is the patriarchal family itself. rape and domestic abuse are merely symptoms of the problem which is patriarchal & heteronormative romance and society itself. rather than rape being deviant, it is resistance to patriarchy which is deviant; rather than incest being abnormal, it is a girl holding out a hand to another girl in pain which is abnormal. because 'abnormal' does not mean 'bad' any more than 'normal' means 'good'. "fall in love normally, get married normally, have a normal family, and have a normal life -- but normal has nothing to do with us!"
#anyway. if you haven't seen rgu. watch rgu#revolutionary girl utena#the absolute destiny apocalypse#social justice

i think the primary reason why K/S has such overwhelming appeal is and always shall be that it is, at its core, a soulmate bond that has to be forged. the only way a t'hy'la bond can manifest is through shared toil, hardships, and undying devotion; it must be given effort and put together piece by piece - but at the same time, by the nature of its creation, it alters all realities on a cosmic level, to the point that Kirk and Spock must meet in every universe.
t'hy'la is not spontaneous. it is not a soulmate mark, it doesn't spring to life at first sight or first touch or first word. it is destined - because it is chosen, time and time again. you cannot have one without the other
#star trek#spirk#k/s#spock#kirk#s'chn t'gai spock#james t kirk#captain kirk#see it's about the will of two people intertwined with the will of the stars. it's about devotion being the Point#k/s said Do Not Separate#so the universe said ugh fine but no soulmate marks no freebies no guarantee you'll ever know each other or fall in love again#and k/s said Bet#see the core appeal of the soulmate tropes is not Spontaneity. it's Reassurance#it is a guarantee that someone out there is Meant to love you and it appeals to people who have been fundamentally Unloved#and k/s still absolutely has That#but at the same time. the core appeal of a slowburn is the time and effort and history it takes to build something lasting and powerful#and k/s is also That in every way#you cannot have one without the other#no destiny without love no love without effort no effort without will no will without life no life without destiny#and it all goes full circle#k/s said we will be Destined because we will make it so

hey sorry about your girlfriend, she turned into a car. yeah, it's a metaphor for her becoming your vehicle for escape to leave your abusive family. yeah, you'll be going to a world without roads. yeah, the outside world has no roads. at least you can always build new ones! no? okay.

Some lore tabs that killed me dead and I'll never recover from them. Seasonal gauntlets are about Zavala realising and coming to terms with the fact that he is mortal and has mortal pains. Also, finally, the full confirmation that Guardians resume aging when they lose their Light:
He moved his chair back and considered his knee. What had he done to hurt it? He had not exercised yet, he had not gone on his usual patrol… he had done nothing. Why would a knee hurt from doing nothing? The riddle dissolved. He was starting to age.
But also:
He allows a hand to rest on his aching knee. To venerate it. He feels it solid under his palm. It is his, it is real, it is both portentous and precious. He is aging. He will age. An absurd and joyous thought warms in his chest: how fortunate, to have lived long enough to grow old. How invaluable, to make the space between himself and the horizon matter. How much time is left? And is it best spent with his knees under a desk?
Genuinely crying over this. How fortunate to live long enough to grow old. Man. Also at the end he asks for a break for one week and Ikora offers him two weeks.
The next one just... I have no words. It has to be read in full. It's about Saint going through it, having memories of his past and also dealing with the guilt with what's happening to Mithrax. Truly every sentence in this one is a gutpunch all the way to the end. Excerpts:
The hum of activity was overpowering yet reassuring to Saint-14 as he stopped to watch an older Eliksni expertly weave fabric on a well-worn loom. The woven symbols were unique and unfamiliar to the Exo, but he watched in awe as an iridescent glow emerged within the vibrant cerulean cloth. Fit for a Kell, Saint mused to himself— Breath caught in his throat; hands shook— Flashes of memory echoed in his mind. All he could feel in this moment… was shame.
Saint remembering his crimes against the Eliksni and feeling shame.
He hurried past the weaver and through the crowd, landing squarely in front of a tea stand, a sample placed in his hand before he could open his mouth to refuse. He looked down. The opaque liquid steamed in his cup, pungent and medicinal. Like distilled Darkness, Saint realized— Breath caught in his throat; hands shook— Flashes of memory filled his sight. All he could feel in this moment… was sadness.
Tea reminded him of all the stuff with Osiris and he is not processing it well. I say excerpts but I have to put the rest entirely because like. Okay.
Saint placed his favorite keepsake, a small stuffed bear, on the Kell's throne. Gently, he adjusted the lavender ribbon at its neck; the crisp satin sat in stark contrast to the bear's hazy black eyes, to its slightly worn ear and well-loved fur. A gift, once a comfort to a child of the City. A gift, once a comfort to Saint in the face of loss, in the face of— Breath caught in his throat; hands shook— Flashes of memory swelled in his heart. Osiris. His strong laugh. His deep, soulful eyes. The warmth of his smile. Of his touch. Memories of comfort, but all he could feel in this moment… was guilt. Intense and overwhelming, like daggers cutting through him, sharpness bleeding through sweetness. Saint breathed deeply and stared at the medical equipment around the empty throne before him. "The cost of my joy," Saint whispered, and he wept.
He has a teddy bear. He once gave it to a child, but someone returned it to him when he was grieving about Osiris, to comfort him, and he'd kept it. And he put it on Mithrax's throne because he feels guilt that Mithrax is suffering because he helped him and Osiris.
I'm ending it all.

I wonder if the etymology behind absol's name is what inspired the devs to make absolute destiny, do you know about its name?
I don't really know the name origin of absol, no. It could be, but I wouldn't be able to tell you.

I AM CORRECT BUT EVERYONE SHIPS THEM DIFFERENTLY#THE FISH N CHIPS I SEE EVERYWHERE ELSE IS SO FLOWERY AND SWEET AND ROMANTIC. AND THATS NICE! THAT STUFFS NEAT#but gillion and chip would NEVERRRR enter anything similar to a romantic relationship. chips too damaged and gillions too uninterested#I LIKE MY FISH N CHIPS ONE SIDED AS FUCK#bc 2 gillion chip is his best friend in the whole wide world but hes also kinduvagross little man that took him a MINUTE to really warm up2#but to CHIP gillion is this powerful and gorgeous and heroic paragon of destiny and his best friend in the whole world who will#bring about the eschaton. 'i didnt believe in destiny until i met you' until i met a champion radiating with a light thatll alter the world#OHH REMEMBER THE FIRST ICE ARENA?he was so mad.still probably shaking from the ordeal.NEVER had he felt true divine radiance CLEAVE through#his SOUL like that.do you remember that moment in the forest w the bugs. an alien from the ocean; lacerating the land w lightning#when the realization flickered in chip for a moment.that the thing standing before him was more powerful than he could ever fathom#remember when grizz mentioned that the nat20 kiss was the 'best kiss chip ever experienced'. that has nothing to do w this. where was i.#LOST MY TRAIN OF THOUGHT. BUT HEY. I THINK at the beginning chip absolutely knew that gill was smth grand n powerful n scary#when gillion revealed what exactly the prophecy was;chip got defensive and mad.sure he was sleep deprived but OOH. HES SCARED!#he believes gillion too! he believes that his destiny is to eradicate either the sea or land and that scares him!#but then he gets past it bc ultimately he trusts his bestfriend gillion so so much. he fuckin loves this dude.#he would throw himself intothe path of fire for this dude. he would boat across the ocean for this dude.he would build arenas for this dude#even if this dude will end half the world.even if this dude wields the power and the obligation to eradicate him at any second.#even if this dude is going to throw himself into harms way for his own comrades.even if this dude is just going to sacrifice himself.#one way or another one shall die for the other.these self-sacrificial bastards click so well with eachother!!#chip believes his body is best used to pave roads and gill believes his body is destined to pave prosperity.WHATEVER!!#i really love their dynamic!! they care for eachother so much!in MY heart tho. the icing on the cake here is the fantasy that chip is#just a bit more In Love w gillion than he realizes. like this powerful fish guy is HOT and PRETTY and KIND and FUNNY and LOYAL and STRONG#but gillion would never rly feel that same sort of attraction towards chip. its just not rly his thing. aroace as fuck man.#thats how it is in MY little heart atleast. and i sit here and play w my touys in my brain n i explore my silly lil one sided fish y chips.

it does crack me up how utterly miserable akio is even though his circumstances are far more within his control than anyone else at ohtori. like he thinks children are annoyingly naive but he still chooses to be a school administrator. he thinks astronomy is boring but he still chooses to look at his little planetarium every night. every day akio wakes up and is like "ughhh i have to go sexually abuse some insipid-ass kids today 🙄 fuck my stupid baka life" and it's like well actually bud you don't have to do any of that. but ok

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
