So, I’m assuming that most players (like me) thought that you *had* to pass the “channeling the weave” scene with Gale in order to begin his romance. Makes sense, right? Gale is a learned scholar, he tells you magic is his life, so it’s understandable that even he might hesitate to romance you if you are unable to follow his simple instructions and share a moment with him.
…but nope! Nope. Of course Gale is so wonderful that even if you fail the scene, he’s still down bad for you, and to top it off? His response is one of the sweetest lines in the whole damn game.
If you are a Galemancer and you haven’t seen this before, please stop whatever you are doing, sit down, view his expression + hear his line delivery, and try not to pass out:
Tav: It was a pity your lesson in the Weave ended so soon - I was enjoying our moment alone. Do you think about us being alone again?
Gale: Do you?
Tav: Yes.
Gale: So do I. You see, I'm not a big believer in fate, but I do believe in serendipity.
Gale: Life is a tempest of events that sometimes we brace against, and sometimes embrace.
Gale: You're one such event that one day soon perhaps, I'd like to embrace.
A thing I like to make besides comics is custom cassettes, sometimes! I made the Omega-3 tape for a friend a while back, but I JUST now got around to making the Dedf1sh one recently after meaning to for A Goddamn Minute
The Acht tape is a continuous mix @ardnin made and posted to Youtube, I've been in love with it for ages and if you're into weird Splatoon music you ought to give it a listen here.
The best way to listen to cassettes is in low quality, of course, so here's a short video of the Dedf1sh mix through my oldass walkman and my newass headphones.
very belatedly posting the bday gift i did for my very best friend in the world because i am nothing if not an enabler to their terrible guy brainrot and now we have a tiny wannabe dictator in our home for always 😌
[Image ID: A five panel comic of Satoru Gojo, Suguru Geto, and Shoko Ieiri from Jujutsu Kaisen. In the first panel, half of Suguru's face is in shadow and faces the screen. Satoru is lying on his bed playing on a DS and Shoko sits on the bed next to him. Suguru asks, "Hey, Satoru, where's my phone?" Satoru says, "Over there." Shoko comments dryly, "You didn't even look up..."
In the second panel, Suguru is on the other side of the room, holding up his phone triumphantly in his right hand. Shoko whips her head toward him in confusion and disbelief as Suguru says, "Found it!! Thanks, Satoru :3" and Satoru responds, "Ur welcome"
In the third panel, Shoko wears an expression of disgust against a background of swirling radial lines, saying, "What the hell... That's so creepy..."
In the fourth panel, Satoru is leaning up on his elbows on the bed and Suguru is sitting next to him, sagely nodding his head as Satoru says, "You're just bitter cuz you're short." Shoko, irritated, says, "What does that even mean..."
In the fifth panel, Shoko holds her chin and contemplates, "Does the Six Eyes include telepathy...?" Behind her, Satoru is sitting on the bed with his fingers to his temples and his mouth open in concentration, levitating a slice of pizza. Suguru sits on his knees next to him, cheering him on.
Next to the first four panels is a drawing of the three of them. Suguru and Satoru have their arms slung around Shoko's shoulders, who smiles around a cigarette in her mouth and whose hands are in her pockets. Suguru, on Shoko's right, makes a three-fingered peace sign with his right hand and leans slightly down. Satoru has his legs crossed and his left arm up in a fist, mouth open in a smile. In hiragana written above them is Sashisu! (さしす). ]
