#all button controller

[lalunameli]

My new All-button from Mavercade arrived today, with extra buttons for fighting in these here streets! So excited to try it out!!

[s2project]

S2:V07-PETIT PARADISI

A leverless fighting game controller using the S2 ENGINE custom layout I've been refining. Combination of a WASD and Hitbox style layout, with the final column moved to thumb buttons, and two 30mm buttons at the pinky positions.

The front has a peg for guitar straps, and the strap lock can be used to hold cables. A latch lets you easily access the internals and extra storage. The left and right 30mm buttons can be swapped out for an analog stick using an Adafruit breakout board. Two headphone jacks on the side can be used to attached extra inputs, such as a foot pedal.

I can’t include them all so here’s a combo of ‘came to mind first,’ ‘talked about positively most often by fans,’ and ‘stuck in my head’.

Public Apology Big Iron isn’t here. There were a lot that didn’t make the cut but that one specifically I stg I put in and only realized after posting had not. It was 100% meant to be on this list and I’ve failed us.

I am headcanoning Mhin's monster transformation as being related to their emotions (as in: transformation can be triggered by very strong emotions) SO HARD lately.

It would add an extra layer to Vere constantly trying to piss them off that just ⋆˗ˋˏ Makes Sense ˎˊ˗⋆ to me.

Vere is intrigued by the MC, describing them as "not quite human, not quite monster".

Is it safe to assume that Vere felt similarly intrigued by Mhin? That he picked up on that, smelled it on Mhin when they first met, only to have Mhin stab him on sight? And now Vere is constantly pushing at their raw nerves to try and get a Monstrous reaction out of Mhin... It would add an extra layer to their dynamic that I love to consider.

Alternate theory: The transformation is more werewolf-esque and it's related to something that can be astronomically observed. & that's how Mhin started up their stargazing hobby?? But it's kinda cuter if they just enjoy that for it's own sake, amiright?

P.S. if ur wondering how Vere knows about the emotions trigger he knows bc he can Do That Thing

discovered an absolutely metal way to draw pokey

and yes i'll make something super edgy and "poetic" about it

I have such mad respect for people who can grind Path of Terra farming in Star Stable. How do you do it??? It's so absolutely mind numbing. There is nothing enjoyable about it, it's just excessively tedious (and clunky) repetitious clicking

Anything requiring precision clicking in SSO is gonna be clunky, so a whole mechanic that is just that? For like 20-30 minutes harvesting and replanting an entire garden? Awful. Miserable. Wretched. I don't know how some of you guys have the patience and I am in awe of you.

Could you rank Jesse's outfits?

Hell yes I can!!!! Strap in lads, I've decided to put this under the cut because it got... long. Thank you so much for this question anon, I'm sorry if it's not quite what you wanted, it kind of ran away from me!!! But please know that I had so much fun doing this!! I'll take any excuse to talk about Control fashion!!!!

Okay, so:

The Director's suit

What can I say, just look at it, 10/10, no notes (well, lots of notes, but all about how much I love it!!!) Absolute perfection!!! The details on this outfit!!! The triangle on the back, the little triangle on the shoes, the cut outs on the jacket, the hair pin?????? It's truly everything to me, and I love it's story significance of visually showing Jesse embracing her role as Director, it's just the perfect example of everything the FBC and Oldest House is!!

(Also, fun fact, the first thing I thought when I saw it was 'oh, yeah, I understand why this is one of Julia Drawfee's favourite games now'...)

2. Asynchronous suit

Again, what can I say??? Look at it, this thing is just gorgeous!! Oh, the details!!! The structure is so beautiful, all the different shapes, the Brutalist nature of it all!! Also her cute little boots, I love them and the way they blend into the leggings!

Also, as someone who would desperately love for Jesse to get a skirt at some point, the half skirt and the way it moves in combat is everything to me, ahhh it looks so good!!!

3. Civilian outfit

I love her original outfit so much!!! It's so simple, yet it manages to be so iconic!!! I remember someone I was watching complain that her outfit wasn't great because it doesn't stand out enough, doesn't make her look like enough of an outsider, but personally I completely disagree! Control is such a high aesthetic game, and Jesse's civilian out so perfectly compliments the aesthetics of the Oldest House through its colour scheme and silhouette! Especially the back of the jacket, I absolutely adore the structure of it, it kind of has a similar energy as the Asynchronous Suit with the sharp Brutalist energy it has. But at the same time, by making it a leather jacket and jeans, it stands out so clearly from the (sometimes unnecessarily extra) formal shirts and trousers/skirts the others wear.

Anyway, love it! Also adore the bright blue of the original jacket!!!

4.Janitor's Assistant

Love it!! Love it so much!!! I adore the rolled up sleaves and trouser legs (whether this is for fashion or practicality, I do not know, but it is aesthetically pleasing none the less). Also, I love the detail that's she's wearing her original boots with this outfit, it feels like a cute visual cue of how comfortable she feels in this outfit/role. Also, the fact that Ahti gives it to us personally for a job well done just, perfection...

(also look at her little hammer and plyers, she deserves them!!!)

5. The Golden Suit

I do indeed enjoy the Golden Suit, I mean, it's a variation of my beloved Director's Suit, and has a lot of the same details I love that one for, but it just doesn't hit the same for me. I think I would prefer if it had a white shirt, or the shirt was a little darker as the greyish colour just isn't quite for me, (though it could be the darn lighting in the Oldest House). But still, I do indeed love it, I mean look at her, she still looks incredible even if its not quite my style!

6. Expedition Gear

You know what, I used to think I didn't like this outfit, but it grew on me as I was looking at it for this, and you know what, I love it now!! Like, to begin with it's one of the outfits that has the ponytail, and I absolutely adore this hairstyle!!! The way it moves in combat is gorgeous, and I enjoy the effort made to give her a high pony style that doesn't make her look like Beth Wilder!! But again, rolled up sleeves, super cute, the zipper/clasp detail on the side, it's all giving practical but fashionable, and I'm so hear for it!!

7. Extradimensional Suit

She's cool!! I mean, this outfit has the ponytail, so that's already a win! It's not my style, or the sort of thing I'm interested in, but I can appreciate it for what it is. The colour scheme is gorgeous, I love all the textures and shapes, particularly the piping around the neck (it reminds me of the mail room/pneumatics!). And as always, she looks incredible in it, so a solid outfit all round, just not one that makes me go feral, you know?

8. Office Assistant

I do very much love this outfit, I think she looks adorable, there's just not that much going on. I do love her little sensible heels, and the fact that the shirt is pinstripe rather than plain, it's cute!!! It's also just, it just is the FBC, it's such a recognisable look throughout the game, so I very much appreciate it!!

(Can you imagine if we got the pencil skirt version too????? Sigh, I can only dream...)

9. Candidate P7

Again, like, story wise this outfit is fascinating- (I've been thinking recently, like, at what point did Darling decide Dylan was a lost cause, and what did that mean for their pursuit of Jesse?? Is there a reason they just happened to have a prime candidate outfit ready for her, exactly in her size???)

Anyway, fashion wise there's not much to say, though I never realised you could run round the Oldest House in little socks, that's cool!! It also looks so cosy, but it has far too many lore implications for that, so unfortunately it does come last, but it's still cool!!

Bonus Round- Pre order exclusives

1.Tactical Response

You do not understand how unbelievably sad it makes me that this was an pre-order exclusive and I can not have it, because I love it so so much, it is gorgeous!!!!!!!! Look at her, she looks incredible!!!! The pony tail, the monochrome, it's like her civilian outfit but just elevated to the highest degree, I love it so muuuuuuuuuch!!!!!!!!!!

2. Astral Dive suit

I feel similarly about this outfit as I do the Extradimensional suit. Not quite my style, but I highly appreciate it, it's beautiful!! Also her hair, ahhhhhhh!!

3.Urban Response

It's cute!! It has a lot of the things I love about the Tactical Response, but the colour scheme just doesn't hit the same! The top is so cute though, I love it!!!!

And, uhhhhhhh, thats it :) If you made it to the end of this, thank you, I am incredibly impressed!!! Anyway, the clothes in Control are incredible, and this is only Jesse's outfits, there's so many other amazing clothes in this game!!! Like genuinely, the commitment to fashion in Control is incredibly important to me, and will always be one of the things I love most about this game!!!!

(I am literally always ready to talk about it, so never hesitate to message if you want to talk about it with someone!)

jesus , when did he start getting so easily worked up ? mark was usually pretty suave when it came to these things , all pearly whites and soft eyes , gentle hands and baited breaths ; but , there was something about nathan that could easily grip him by the collar and drag him through the coals of carnality . parts of his mind concluded that it was definitely the draw of familiarity , a person he REMEMBERED that wasn’t batshit crazy . other portions jokingly claimed stake on the notion that maybe nate’s touch had ‘ something ‘ in it , something addictive . while his mind did flips to make sense of his sudden sensitivity , mark is NOT aware of how he looks as he begs for solace in nathan’s form , the look of genuine want written across his features .

his face is flushed pink , body twisted onto its side from how nate had him earlier , eyes blown wide in arousal , and wet lips agape as he waited far too patiently for an answer . if mark had a tail it would have started wagging when nathan said yes , his eyes lighting up and quickly shifting his body back flat onto his back with an absolutely cheesy , lust drunk smile . tan hands are quick , not in a rush but more so in need for the raven atop of him , coming to rest upon his hips with a small squeeze . a quiet ‘ yay ‘ passes his lips when told he asked nicely , when told the rest of the day could wait , that they could stay together a little longer. unfortunately , god knows that mark was already getting worked up at the thought , a soft gasp passing his lips when he feels wet fabric pressing against his already hardening cock in his boxers .

the proximity gives him only a moment to genuinely admire nathan , brown eyes looking to a sweet smile and equally as deep hues , before the raven is ducking down to press warm kisses along his already heated skin . mark gives an airy laugh at the kiss to his cheek , leaning into it , and hearing as his own giggles shift to groans as those soft lips travel down to his neck . his eyes fluttered closed , one hand tracing patterns up and down the expanse of nathan’s spine as the other comes so fingers can slide gingerly under the leg of his boxers . the guard is easily drawn into the hand in his hair , craning his neck to lean into the affection , and in return giving the man above him more access to sensitive skin .

a punched gasp passes his maw when tender kisses shift to bites , the fingers at nate’s thigh tightening and low moan leaving him at the sensation . mark is quick to hear his panting in his own ears , something that makes his face feel only hotter , paired with quiet hiccuped whines when nathan is MARKING him . that’s enough to send a shiver down his spine , THAT’S enough to have his cock twitching and back arching a smidge . the other’s name is whispered like a prayer at the sensation , hips bucking instinctively against nate . the raven tries to shift his worked up breathing to come in and out through his nose instead , the sound shaky as he’s now eye to eye with the perpetrator of his pleasure . positively already a mess , mark is pressing his chest into prying hands , keeping his form exposed for peering eyes , and his hands are holding onto nathan like he’ll disappear in thin air if he lets go .

mark sees that look on nate’s face , the heavy breaths , the lust in his eyes , and can’t help but smile back . something almost sheepish as he keeps his head craned for nathan to admire , voice a gruff , coy murmur . “ like what you see , sir ? “

Don't think I mentioned this, but playing in bed with a controller is working out really well! It's still pretty taxing so I can't really play until I'm square in the eyes, but I get a couple of hours in here and there.

I usually prefer keyboard and mouse over a controller, but I've discovered with Veilguard I actually prefer the latter. The keyboard + mouse setup just feels so clunky in comparison with this combat system, there's just too many combos and shit to keep in mind.

this was just an observation my friend made a while ago but it got me thinkin' a little bit. Personally, I got over my aversion to sports by fencing in college. Coz it turns out I didn't hate sports. In fact, I think training and learning the rules and pushing myself to improve is super fun! That's the same stuff I like about video games. And despite being a life-long poindexter, all that physical activity felt GOOD, and it was nice to connect with folks.

What I hated about sports as a kiddo was the shame. I hated people acting like I ought to know this or that (despite being a know-nothing child). I hated being excluded and looked down upon for not being good. I despised the way the adults around me treated kids wrt sports. Also I couldn't see and had asthma and neither of these problems got treated until I was on my way out of high school (getting my first inhaler was one of the main reasons I was able to fence at all, in fact).

combat sports are great to me because they're all about that individual journey. I didn't have to worry about letting a team down who might yell at me later for my performance. It's just me and my own heart and my love for the game - THAT'S sports.

Law and Order Criminal Intent - s02e03 - Anti-Thesis Wallace shows Goren some numbers she wrote down on a piece of paper. Goren: That's my social security number and my birth date. Wallace: Yes, it's remarkable the fountain of information that can spring from those little numbers. Home address. Next of kin. Mother's maiden name. Mother's.. address. Tell me, Robert, how often do you get up to the Carmel Ridge Center?  Goren simmers with rage, unable to speak for a moment. Goren: Once a week. And a phone call every day. Wallace: How old were you when you first realized it?  Goren: No. You want to play, then it's gonna have to be tit for tat. You have to tell me something true about you. About Nicole. Wallace: All right.
