One advice I’d give to non continental United sates people who come here is to FUCKING CHECK YOUR CHANGE IF YOU EVER GET MONEY BACK. You will get a Canada coin and unless you’re from “Canada” you will not be able to use it fucking ANYWHERE and it will haunt you in your bag for years.
#I don’t do this#but then I regret doing it#bc I go to laundry mats and tolls so often#and I also love coin games#and those toy capsul shits#txt#txt post#Canada isn’t real#Canadian coins#American issues

All the final lines of each part of every Hunger Games book
THG:
Part I:
“Because . . . because . . . she came here with me.”
Part II:
Before I can stop myself, I call out Peeta’s name.
Part III:
I take his hand, holding on tightly, preparing for the cameras, and dreading the moment when I will finally have to let go.
CF:
Part I:
It’s my mockingjay.
Part II:
This is no place for a girl on fire.
Part III:
“Katniss, there is no District Twelve.”
MJ:
Part I:
And his blood as it splatters the tiles.
Part II:
That I’m of more use to her dead than alive.
Part III:
I tell him, “Real.”
#thg#the hunger games#catching fire#mockingjay#peeta mellark#katniss everdeen#gale hawthorne#thg book comb#curious that 5/9 of these involve peeta#and he's not just mentioned in passing#from his revelation of love to him being tortured to katniss's feeling about him#he's KEY he's CENTRAL he's THE DRIVING FORCE THAT USHERS IN THE NEXT SECTION OF THE BOOK#over to gale#poor guy is in one (1) final line#and even then he's just relating news to katniss#the subject is the destruction of district 12 (her home)#it's a heavy and jarring line because of what d12 means to katniss#NOT because of gale himself#and NOT because of anything to do with their relationship#also interesting that the only characters/players these ending lines focus on are:#peeta (x5)#coin#snow (implied)#and the rebellion#never prim or gale or anyone else#although I know they have several CHAPTER endings all to themselves#so this is NOT to say that a character's presence (or lack thereof) in these particular final lines#is directly related to their importance to the plot#(see: snow)#HOWEVER

ALONZO. ALONZO YOU CANNOT JUST SAY THAT AND THEN LEAVE ME HANGING COME ON. GIMME CHIBI ALONZO DAMMIT
#metaphor refantazio#Alonzo Crotalus#this game is so good#so good#ALONZO MY BELOVED#I love himmmm#I wanna hang out with him all the time#never wanted to hug a character more#Also I hope he got introduced to Junah at some point. Both of them had lines about Nidias and being natural liars#and being somewhat conflicted about it#also he and Batlin are opposite side of the same PR coin and I love them both

watched the persona 5 proof of justice ova from years ago and was getting acid reflux with how queer everything was... what do you mean its just 20 minutes of joker mourning his boyfriend. that's the entire ova.
#persona 5#akechi goro#akira kurusu#shuake#akeshu#like call me crazy but good god if i had twice the brain power that i do right now i could write a dissertation picking apart the--#--queer themes of shuake alone#something something self hatred something something two sides of the same coin...#i don't know man i think it's hard to deny the very true realness of shuake when everything in canon points to them being tied together#for better or for worse but i'd like to think for better#also the “if only we'd met a few years earlier” thing#why dont you... choke me out and strangle me and dump my body in the river the way that that line took me out#akechi i love you akechi they could never make me hate you#except for when i'm actually playing the game and then i'm filled with nothing but rage everytime he comes on screen#but its loving rage of course

I think something that really fascinates me about a ''metroidbrainia'' - like outer wilds - is upgrades dont happen in the code of the game, but in your brain. the game doesnt change, but you do.
#i love the term metroidbrainia i dont remember who coined it#i want it to be a Real Term#outer wilds#tunic game#<- also a metroidbrainia imo#the storytelling potential of having a static thing that changes because YOU change#something undertale esque about it too

there's an essay jumbled up in my brain about dunmeshi's beginning and how clever and deceptive it is as a sleight-of-hand trick that distracts the audience from the depth and scope of the worldbuilding and foreshadowing that's being set up the entire time by dangling zany characters and wacky dishes and biology fun facts in front of us, and how that serves to catch invested viewers off guard when those elements come to the forefront, but also how it works against it with other viewers wanting "more" and not seeing it because the plot bait isn't laid out up front
how people getting frustrated with the characters "not taking things seriously" is mirrored and refuted in the confrontation between Laios and Shuro. how the characters' attitudes aren't just a result of shallow low-stakes "comedy rules" where nothing matters, but are an extension of their personalities (Laios's nonstandard expression of emotions being offputting even to people he knows) and the world and social environment (adventurers being desensitized to death and injury because resurrection magic is commonplace). the way the party refers to "saving Falin" instead of "retrieving Falin's corpse," indicating that they still see her with full personhood, and how that phrasing leads to some readers/viewers believing that Falin is alive in the dragon's stomach, conscious of being slowly digested while the party carelessly fucks around "wasting time." how the weird tonal dissonance makes sense in-universe and yet is deliberately challenged more and more the deeper the party goes
all the character building and pieces of lore slowly weaving together the shape of the larger world, laying the groundwork for the major themes that will surface later. so much is right there in the "low-stakes" early episodes if you know what you're looking for (or pass the perception checks).
it can be so satisfying to see new viewers/readers pick up on the clues even in the earliest "simple" episodes, or notice new things and make connections yourself....and it can also be frustrating to see people dismiss oddities and dissonance as shallow or bad writing because they don't expect a "cooking anime" to have depth like that. why try to question and understand and peel back the layers when you don't expect there to be any layers?
why can't laios take things seriously for once?
#mypost#i'm majorly out of practice for doing any real critical cohesive writing lol#trying to put this into coherent words has been such a mess so here's a vague gesture at my thought process about it#it's both my favorite and the most frustrating thing to see#because i've seen SO MANY people say they dropped the show after a couple eps thinking they know what it's about and where it's going#a cute but ultimately unsustainable gimmick#people for whom the characters and the food/biology infodumping weren't enough of a hook#but i wouldn't change anything about the structure to put a more obvious plot hook in the beginning#because it would give the game away TOO much#i LOVE how the audience has to acclimate to the characters' attitudes about death#only for our assumption that it's all normal and fine in this world to be thrown back in our faces#how we're left to notice the winged lion appearing in statues and carvings and coins and armor in the background#long long before it's ever brought up as a real entity by the plot#the history of the kingdom laid out in plain view but nevermind that. magic painting food!#i've seen the language around falin and her resurrection cause so much confusion#but of COURSE the characters involved wouldn't directly say 'we need to get her corpse to revive it'#bc pragmatically they already understand that as their goal. it doesn't need to be stated out loud; it's just how this process works.#but also they don't SEE her as an object. a dead body.#they need to 'save her before she's digested.' 'the spell couldn't reach her in the dragon's stomach.' 'hang in there falin'#death isn't real to them. not really. and so it doesn't quite feel real to the audience either#not until they find her skull and that realization slams home#like......i keep comparing it to gravity falls#which is episodic and goofy in the beginning but also has a much more obvious plot hook to keep people interested#(a main character entering a secret bunker indicating that he's lying about his ignorance of the town's mysteries)#the main characters in gravity falls are AWARE that there is a mystery to be solved and are trying to find more information#but i don't think that approach would work as well for dm!#laios's goals were never that lofty. not until they HAD to be because the situation demanded it of him#it's the characters trying to solve one personal problem and finding themselves entrenched in something vast and dramatic#that they weren't even fully AWARE of when they set out. and we the audience are on that journey with them!#it's SUCH a good structure i wouldn't trade it for anything. but also. tragic to see people give up and dismiss it so fast.

actually crazy how much I'm enjoying the heroic durge path thus far. like it's actually a shame I always hear people talk about durge as something they save for an evil run because if you are an angst enjoyer, this is simply one of the finest vintages I've had in a while. like, the limitless internal conflict, not knowing who you are, not knowing if you want to know who you were, trying to be a good person but fearing you never can be. Something is forcing you to do terrible things and you can't control it, so where does that end? is your determination to be better than your impulses stronger than the monster inside of you? what happens if you lose control and just keep falling? that's SEXY. that's fucking catnip for me personally, I'm literally living my best life rn
#I multiclassed as a cleric of tymora (because I love her) but also because: goddess of gamblers#if you know you can kill in your sleep every night is a gamble#what will happen when I close my eyes? will everyone still be alive when I wake up?#every time you put a weapon in your hand it's a gamble#will I kill the enemy? or will I lose control and harm an ally?#flip the coin. find out#the shadow cursed lands are also like. horrifyingly fantastic in general if you are an angst enjoyer (so far)#the stupid ambush where the enemies separate everyone in the party? INSANE. LOVED IT. everyone almost DIED. it was FANTASTIC#I was never more glad that 3/4 of my party members are able to cast misty step#and even THEN it was a struggle to get them able to cast!#delightful. still not over it. great fight no notes#I am having a GREAT time can you tell#rosie plays video games poorly#squad without the s

i will tell you my voltage faves!!
Robert Button (Be My Princess)
Oliver Button (Be My Princess 2) (yes thats his grandson no i dont wanna talk about it)
kyosuke takatsukasa (rose in the embers)
takamasa saeki (my forged wedding)
eiji takao (Oops i said yes)
yukimura sanada (samurai love ballad)
unfortunately for my wallet, every single character from Destind. Mr Right except for Takane are all faves for me, overall my favorite game because i enjoyed all the routes... yes i paid for all the love choice routes... recovering otome game addict here..
yuzuru Shiba (masquerade kiss)
i have several from irresistible mistakes... shunichiro tachibana, toma kiriya, yukihisa maki, and keita mitsuura
kaisei kuon (irresistible mistakes)
wow looking at this list i am ashamed at my expenditures...
@yuutito
OHHHH SUCH A FULL LIST. Be My Princess was such an icon of a game. And Roberto!!! He's such a cutie!! It's okay if you like Oliver too hehe... I can't say anything when I like Joshua and Sieg... And then Glenn and Kuon (tho I wish the paid version didn't ditch the secret twin thing I think Kuon had going on). I distinctly remember liking the party versions of the stories better alas.
SAEKI. I think My Forged Wedding was my first voltage game or was it Be My Princess... I think I played Yamato first because I wanted Yuta but he wasn't out yet....
I never actually played Rose in the Embers or Samurai Love Ballad/Sakura Amidst Chaos(my aversion to period stories) and I don't think I touched Oops I Said Yes... Wait it's not Love Choice so HMMMMM.
I HATE SO MUCH THAT DESTIND WAS LOVE CHOICE because the premise is SO GOOD AUGHHH. I did buy Takane (who I will gladly take off your hands) and Araya's his pov stories tho and I did pony up to play Yuri's main story.... BUT VOLTAGE WHYYYY.
Irresistible Mistakes was a good title... Toma is so Hot.
#aleks tag#voltage games imy#my wallet doesn't#i opened love 365 today and there's another new titlr#love choice unforch#i also hadn't opened it for a year and i think it wiped my coins like wtf

Omori brainrot go brr
Imagine Basil getting jealous whenever Sunny hangs out with anyone in the group for too long, and he hating himself for it. Like, there is no reason for him to hate Sunny being close with anyone. Basil has the same friends-- that he cherishes as well.
It's a very confusing thing for him.
He'll be very sad if anything bad ever happened to anyone in the group, but at the same time, whenever Kel or Aubrey or Hero are taking too much of Sunny's attention (Mari is an exception bc they're siblings), all Basil wants to do is make them go away.
This causes him to try and isolate himself from the group, afraid that he'll snap one day and follow his intrusive thoughts. However, it is unsuccessful because the group refuses to let him push them away. Surprisingly (or not surprisingly, idk), it's mainly Sunny that forces Basil to stick around.
Unbeknownst to the gardener, Sunny also faces similar problems, but instead of thinking of hurting people, he just gets sad whenever Basil isn't paying attention to him
#projecting onto two different characters about the same problem is very confusing#they're both sides of the same coin in my head#also I don't wanna boil Basil down to just be a “owo soft boy with abandonment issues” or anything but#he does have abandonment issues and so do I#so I project onto him#also also not trying to make him a yandere or anything#he just has violent thoughts about hurting his loved ones#who doesn’t /hj#aghh thinking about this scenario is making me happy#omori#omori kel#omori hero#omori basil#omori sunny#omori aubrey#omori mari#omori fandom#omori game#headcanon?#omori headcanons#or is it an imagine?#idk

Various recent pictures of things
#or.. recent ISH.. this was still a few months ago lol#photo diary#EEEee... it's like over 45 minutes away from where I live but I finally found an arcade to go to that's not like entirely in the city and#is less busy. I went like the second they opened at 11:55am on a tuesday while school was still in. So there was basically no other people#there aside from like 5 staff. + wearing high quality KN95 mask and limiting my time there to under 1hr..#Also this was before the current summer covid surge happening since June in the US. so... I got to do One Single safe activity for once lol#skee ball my beloved.....#I actually don't like a lot of arcade games so I basically just spent 70% of the time doing skeeball ghjbjh#But I did weirdly like that pearl themed machine.. even though its one of those foolish games where you just drop items#and hope that they build up enough to let coins fall. like very boring not skill based or etc. But the Aesthetics of it.. I was drawn#to.. I wanted to crack the glass open and harvest the smooth white orbs from inside.. it would have been even cooler if they were#actually pearlescent in some way. but the round bubbly design and the blue and white water and shell theme entranced me#I love air hockey also but this machine was really flat and weird. like not enough air was pumping and the puck was very cheap and flimsy#An afterschool daycare place I went to once as a child had an air hockey machine that they would allow kids limited use to sometimes#and the air was always BLASTING up from the table so much that you could lay on it and it was like being hit by a slight breeze. and the#puck was very hefty and more of a satisfying clunk when you shot it around. I mastered skee ball with two arms#where I would load up a game on two machines right next to each other and throw one ball with my left hand to the left machine and one#with my right to the other and still got an okay ish score on both lol. But I do forget arcades can be very sensory overwhelming like#bright lights and noises and stuff.. walking past every blinking machine chirping at me like SHUT UP I'm trying to get to SKEE BALL#leave me ALONNEE. ghjhb... ANYWAY.. other stuff.. some images of clouds as usual.. a quaint little breakfaste#of eggs. pickled onions. grapes strawberries. and some turkey bacon. Also ofcourse Cat In Weird Position image.#he's always sitting with his legs stretched out funny#I kind of hate arcades on principle since much is a waste of money and time and many games are rigged (especially claw games) where#theres like some Illusion of Skill but so much of it is just random. I simply do not have the patience for that sort of thing. And usually#all the stuff you can win is bad anyway. BUT I also love active games.. if there was a place where I could JUST play skee ball. ddr.#air hockey. and like games where you have to aim at stuff (shooting games. wack a mole. etc.) then I would go there instead.#Active Games Only arcade. It bothers me sometimes to have to walk past all the scammy games to get to the decent ones lol..#Begone.. Out of my site at once... wretched claw machines.. and those things where you try and stop a light or whatever

I know classic sonic can talk but going w the train of thought that he just doesn’t talk much/talks rarely in the classic era is just so funny bcs imagine one day Dr eggman is like “heeeheehoohoohaha sonic I finally have u now I can eliminate u and you’ll never be a thorn in my side ever again blah blah blah blah” it literally goes on forever and then sonic is so fed up a bored and he’s like “okay can we just skip to the part where I beat your ass” and eggman is just standing there like :0 BCS HES NEVER HEARD HIM TALK ???? LIKE EVER BEFORE LOL ?????
#I can see the whole interaction in my head#also that kind of raises the question abt *how* eggman knew Sonic’s name in the first place but also consider the hc that sonic was more of#like a given name/a nickname by others if that makes any sense#I saw someone else on here say that it’d be rlly funny to imagine eggman not knowing tails’ real name and going to some scientific#conference w a guest speaker named Dr miles prower#also apparently classic sonic doesn’t have a voice in the games bcs sega didn’t want to pay Union dues??? 🤨🤨🤨🤨#I have no clue if that’s true I just saw that on here but I could see where it tracks#I love thinking abt sonic actually#like when was the nickname eggman coined#as in in-universe#bcs the classic games pretty exclusively call him robotnik iirc#THE EYES TOO???#one day eggman is just like ‘tf why r ur eyes green????’#and sonic is just like ‘oh I actually didn’t notice yeah thanks that’s kind of weird’ /srs#im done 🙏#sonic the hedgehog#sth#dr eggman#dr robotnik
