fellas is it gay to be the manager of a superstar idol whos slowly falling out of trends bc the industry is evil and fucked up and hates when women show any signs of not being 20yo anymore and you can literally not say no to her even though its literally your job so you make sure she doesnt like accidentally hurt herself so yall go on this wild ass adventure to help her make a song that she doesnt even wanna make for december so her ass doesnt get dropped from the label and then you think shes falling in love with this dad but turns out she literally just was trying to write this song so you think like perhaps theres hope after all except you also think she only sees you as a manager bc yall kissed that one time years ago but never spoke about it again bc yall were both drunk but she literally loves you and when yall get drunk she carries you up the stairs and gets you in bed as best she can bc shes a twig of a woman but that didnt stop her from making sure you made it to bed and youre like basically her only friend and the lines blurred so long ago that you cant remember anymore when you stopped caring about her strictly as a manager/idol and now care about her as so much more?

i feel like. the more i like and care about something. the less i am capable of watching video essays about it. game i never heard of and don't intend to ever play? sure i'll watch 8hrs discussing it's flaws.
but thing i like? if you think you can point out flaws i'm not already aware of, you are dead wrong. none know better how much my interests suck than me.
and also. if you get one thing wrong about them i'll maul you. with things i like it means i've already seen every single piss on the poor take of it ever, and i'm much more polarized. i got emotional investment. i'm going to start biting people.
#feli speaks#i keep getting recommended video essays about fe fates#like. bro. bro i KNOW#i know the story is best enjoyed when you build a mind palace of headcanons#i know the supports vary wildly in quality#i know the localization discussions. i know the gameplay discussions and how the pair up system is peak#or worse yet. engage video essays. shut the fuck up. i already know everything#of course the solution is to just NOT watch them and i DONT#this is inspired by how i did click on one but clicked off 40seconds in because the moron just HAD to get the jab in at engage#you're trashing engage in a FATES VIDEO??? when being an engage defender is what made me give fates a shot in the first place??#like are you out of your mind. fates and engage are brothers in arms

WHY YOU CAN TRY WATCHING YUAN ZUI 原罪 Original Sin (2024)
Okay I've watched up to 20 episodes (out of 25 I think) and can say that this is a mild, low-level rec — just for people who MIGHT be interested in it, and don't have too much expectations on script etc. Off the cuff, it's very SCI-esque production but with slightly worse lines and acting (I'll explain later) BUT the filming visuals aren't bad, main characters are cute, and the cases objectively are pretty okay. My two cents is - if you're bored and looking to just pass the time, you could watch this, but if not, you won't be losing out on much either, but it's worth a try.
IN GENERAL
It passes as a detective drama - to be very fair, they've really tried their best to do a detective drama properly with the hints, the process, the autopsies, the high management police relations, some spy work, some vulnerabilities, some teamwork, some misunderstandings and arguments, some backstory and some PTSD < they've got all the makings of a good show, plus Wang Haoxuan and Chen Huan the two main leads are nice to look at, and their acting is passable.
Clunky script, lines and acting - Personally I think a lot of the lines were not necessary, and because you stuff like a scene out of place, there's like a lot of unnecessary emotion at strange places you wouldn't expect logically LOL. Some of the clues are also a bit ??? I mean I watch with a lot of suspension of disbelief trust me, but I found myself LOL-ing with a cringe at some places. A little overboard in acting also for the PTSD or like the cases that really affect the two male leads, like you can feel it's a tad over the top in terms of trying to get a feel for the scene, but I mean, like I said, low expectations.
If they had a better production and more episodes, I think this might have turned out to be 100% better. It's a hardcore detective drama, so much so that technically some character development scenes would have done it well but they're like almost overly focused on the detective parts of it and like relationships are all for show, but we'll make do.
SUMMARY
Dai Yu (played by Wang Haoxuan), a medical examiner, works closely with Zheng Ming (played by Chen Huan), a police squad captain to solve five cases (5 episodes per case) — they've known each other for a long time, as Zheng Ming's mentor is Dai Yu's dad, and their relationship goes way back. Between them is the death of Dai Yu's father, who was shot right in front of Dai Yu, and the death of Zheng Ming's best friend Hai Shan, who was exposed for his undercover role and shot to death by Zheng Ming by accident during a hostage situation. This results in Zheng Ming being unable to shoot a person after, afraid that he would miss his shot like he did. As they work through several cases, they unravel secrets of what happened in the years after these two deaths.
Total 25 episodes
Playing on iQIYI, but don't know if there are subs since it's so obscure as a production there's barely any promo of it online
BROTHERHOOD (AHEM)
Truly a brotherhood like as if they're allergic to bromance BUT there are really like split seconds where you have to do a double take OKAY! They're kind of close because Dai Yu's dad was Zheng Ming's mentor, but Dai Yu himself took a while to warm up to Zheng Ming and Zheng Ming is kinda hot-headed, and misunderstands people really quickly. The both of them switch between being real familiar with each other to super professional like SUPER professional.
EP. 1: Zheng Ming sends Dai Yu back but Dai Yu has fallen asleep in the car so he literally removes the seatbelt for Dai Yu and then they just fall asleep in the car like that.
EP. 6+7: Dai Yu has his own house but when he sleeps over at the police housing he rooms with Zheng Ming, and Zheng Ming always nags at him for sleeping with his shoes on. And always buys him breakfast. And when Dai Yu once again falls asleep while talking to Zheng Ming without taking his shoes off, Zheng Ming takes it off for him and is all like "There you go again, sleeping with your shoes on."
EP. 15: After having a cold war with each other for like 3 episodes, Dai Yu tags along on a bust without permission and nearly gets knifed and Zheng Ming is pissed off as fuck going like: "What if that blade really hit the mark?! If it was a gun, you'd also step right in front of it?!" and then he walks off and then Dai Yu says, "If it was you (in danger), I definitely would stand right in front of the gun."
There are a lot of other moments, but it's always just RIGHT when you think it could be a bromance moment NOPE they make it so professional I'm like BRUH!!!
But otherwise for me personally, who's a low-maintenance viewer, this hits the spot and I'd keep watching!! Edit: Just finished watching the whole thing and ARGH wow talk about the most abrupt cold-feeling ending ever LMAO?!!?!
#yuan zui#原罪#original sin#wang haoxuan#chen huan#cdrama#yes#cql's wang haoxuan#cql's xue yang#that's the dude#and the only reason why i clicked to watch in the first place#ok yes delulu bij like me trying to find bromance in everything#can't help it

anya and curly i think fascinate me the most. anya for obvious reasons. but curly, he's an enabler but he's not a bad person. it took him being burnt to a crisp and seeing the turmoil and carnage caused by jimmy's actions to realize it was never worth protecting jimmy in the name of friendship. he never could've fixed this, or him. even though he wanted to believe he could, believe in jimmy.
in another situation, with different circumstances and different people - it'd be commendable how he sees the bigger picture and tries to fix things and wants to believe in those around him. but one bad apple spoils the bunch, and he chose his bad apple.
he's a very realistic character in this regard.
#mouthwashing#mouthwashing spoilers#my ramble#my post#anya will always be number one she's everything to me#but curly fascinates me in a very particular way#i think he and anya are 2 of the best written characters (ofc all the characters are well written)#i just think about the scene after anya's suicide where curly just laughs as jimmy takes the gun realizing what this has been all along#i think that's the moment when everything just fell into place and clicked and he realized how bad he fucked up#he took the gun just like anya said he would

If you're still doing character analysis could you do Dan Feng? You can see his character design in art or in the HSR animated short Ichor of Two Dragon's
yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes YES -> literally will drop whatever i'm doing whenever i'm doing it to do these, i LOVE character analysis. for literally any character i will do this
things i've noticed about HSR characters bc the lovely messenger-of-stars fueled my frenzy
part five: Mr. Force Fed his Boyfriend Immortality ✨Dan Feng✨
who's next? :D i'm assuming you didn't mean the playable Imbibitor Lunae based on your wording, but if i'm wrong just let me know and i'll redo it
first of all, lighting really does wonders for this man bc how is this the same character- second, he's semi-bioluminescent. In the darker parts of Ichor of Two Dragons: -> the tips of his ears, his eyes, his horns [which you can see take on that glassy quality in the first two pictures, probably bc he feels at ease or in control as opposed to the final picture- where he's losing] and the ends of his limbs take on a glowy, transparent quality that disappears when the lighting shifts
In his first attack, Dan Feng summons 10 swords. In Chinese culture, these 10 swords are symbols of righteousness and ideals to follow- which explains why he uses them to execute Dan Heng [or- tries to] -> his blasts are also lotus shaped, which are symbols of purity and rebirth.
Lotus are called symbols of purity in Chinese cultures because they bloom from mud. If we look at the water that Dan Feng summons, we can it starts off a murky, swampy green and turns into a nice clean blue when Dan Heng finally claims his life as his own
Dan Heng's Imbibitor Lunae form bares a closer resemblance to the dragon than Dan Feng does [i.e.: the red eyeliner, the golden liquid- or ichor- that formed his horns, the eyes] -> this could mean nothing, but it could also mean that Dan Heng has truly taken control now [also look how cute those little gold rings are, Dan Feng doesn't have those]
motherfucker's flabbers are GASTED. this is why Jingliu beat your ass
the entire time he fights Dan Heng, the birds on his sleeves are gone. You could probably chalk this up to the animators not wanting to draw them, which is completely fair, but i'm pretty sure they're depictions of water fowl -> my best guess would be Dalmatian Pelicans, which are symbols of self-sacrifice or introspection. Considering this was battle about Dan Heng freeing himself from Dan Feng, it's pretty fitting.
Also at the very end of the video, it's only after Dan Feng has faded into golden light that pelicans start to appear in the sky -> there's a story about these birds actually; the parent flew into fit of rage and killed her young, but three days later she drove her beak into her side and spilled her blood to bring it back to life
HC for the Road: Dan Heng is incapable of asking or seeking out physical affection. He still wants it though -> [Welt and March are sitting on one of the couches, with the girl on his left side leaning on his shoulder as he reads a story. Dan Heng sits about a half foot away as he listens] Dan Heng: *unconsciously shifting just slightly closer to hear better* Welt: *intentionally lowering his voice until the Vidyadharan is in more or less the same position as March*
-> [Stelle and Caelus stare Dan Heng down as they trade whispers] Dan Heng, pausing in putting away a book: I can hear you two scheming... Caelus: Scheming!? How dare thee- Dan Heng: Thou. Caelus: How dare thou question my good morals! I was- [He aggressively elbows his sister] Caelus: -comforting Stelle! [Stelle bursts into tears on cue] Dan Heng, immediately startled: Uh- Stelle!? What's wrong..? [The girl blubbers incomprehensively as she bullies her way into his outstretched arms] Dan Heng, awkwardly patting her back: Who do I- [Caelus hugs Dan Heng from behind to derail that thought- creating a Vidyadharan sandwich] Dan Heng: Caelus- Caelus: Sh sh sh, it's group hug time. I felt left out! Dan Heng: ....sure, you did..
#sometimes i think i'm reading too far into things and then everything clicks into place and i realize im not crazy at all actually#the ramblings of a fallen star#media analysis#hsr#honkai star rail#dan feng#imbibitor lunae#astral express#found family#dan heng#caelus#stelle#march 7th

Any particular reason you love Batfleck so much? Or is it just a "blorbo I found on the ground and now I'm attached to it" kinda thing?
I think it’s the shared love we both have for alcohol, poor coping mechanisms, and strength training.

oh i just felt my stomach drop. no...
#ghhhhhh okok working theory now:#he actually can't get out of this situation. it's not where he intended to be not what he wanted to do#but he has to keep going and pretend it's all fine because that's his only option.#he's got to keep playing the part. also explains his jealousy of joker#probably not only because he's improved so quickly but because joker managed to dig himself out of his situation#whereas it looks like akechi dug himself further in and stopping is not only impossible from his pov but also means giving up#joker's also someone he started to enjoy spending time with. and i still do think that was genuine.#do you think the possibility of a genuine friendship with him was too painful to consider now that he's so far down this path?#do you think that's part of the reason joker had to die?#akechi voice: 'i just need to crush my feelings and then everything will be fine'#i am. so close to understanding what's going on here. i can't wait for it to all click into place.#storyrambles#story plays persona 5#mementos mission#goro akechi

hello gamers is slay the princess good/playable if you're horrifically bad at most video games/will it require me to download any programs that will fry my computer. It looks like the type of thing I'd enjoy but I'm allergic to games with the exception of choose your own adventure stuff that doesn't require too much walking around aimlessly
#i played like an hour of disco elysium at a friend's place and enjoyed that#although i don't think i quite got the hang of the quest aspect or how to move through the space to uncover the story#i just clicked on everything i saw methodically#also allergic to twitch style walkthroughs because i'm always like. this should just be a show get rid of the guy telling me what he's doing#i want to choose#gaming is just something i never picked up as a kid and i buy laptops with the purposes of using the word processor and firefox.#i feel 90 whenever i explain this but anyways

[Scene: smoke break in one of the infinite balconies in TWRNW's castle]
Xigbar: "Periods, huh? I remember those..."
Demyx: "What? You get them too?"
X: "Nah, not anymore. Dont tell anyone by the way"
D, internally: "Xiggy is PREGNANT?!"
when a few months pass and xigbar has not had a baby, demyx is spotted in the Hallmark that Never Was, frowning and glancing between two greeting cards that say "congrats on the abortion" and "sorry about the menopause"
#on the way to checkout he also passes the card sections for ''bottom surgery'' and ''some kind of body hopping parasite situation''#[the Hallmark that Never Was serves a niche market]#demyx's eyes widen. the truth dawns on him. everything clicks into place. he drops the cards in his hands#and picks one of the cards from ''bottom surgery''#DSFKJSHDDSKJF this is really funny anon thank you#asks#xigbar meme tag#kh

The ORV timeloop is insane actually. I get into deep thoughts whenever I start thinking of it.
As messed up as the cycle may be, it was pre-destined and nobody knows where it begins and where it ends. The regression cycle of yoo joonghyuk was just one small part of what the entire picture actually is and it's just so insane to think of.
A story existing for that one sole reader and the end result being the destiny of the thousands of worldlines. I still get the chills thinking of it.
#I really love the pace of the story#the revelation had me gasping so loudly because of how insane it is#the sheer horror I felt when everything had clicked into place was really something#orv#orv spoilers#orv novel#omniscient reader#omniscient reader's viewpoint#omniscient reader viewpoint#omniscient reader novel#kim dokja#han sooyoung#TLS123#regression depression#time loop#yoo joonghyuk

Ok but Tommy and Buck in Buck’s loft and Tommy sits down and is like “man, this couch is kinda uncomfortable” and then Buck being like “yeahhhh aha about that…” and giving Tommy the full explanation of his seating dilemma. And then one day Eddie, Buck, and Tommy are all over at Eddie’s house for a “boys night” because after everything in 7x04, they discovered they actually all enjoyed hanging out, and Tommy teases Buck saying “this couch is a lot comfier than yours, Buck” and Buck replies kinda wistfully although he doesn’t mean to, “yeah, it’s a pretty nice couch, isn’t it?” And Tommy, who has seen everything from the beginning in a way that not even Buck has, realizes that Buck’s response means more than just oh, yeah, it’s a nice couch. And he just looks between them and kind of has this “oh.” moment.
#and everything clicks into place#he’s like yeah it was a little strange that Buck kept comparing us#and#we are pretty similar aren’t we?#I KNEW he wasn’t trying to get my attention#oh well you win some you lose some#911 abc#911 on abc#911 show#evan buck buckely#evan buckley#buddie#eddie diaz#tommy kinard#bucktommy#bisexual evan buckley

I was so ready to be constantly confused while playing Death Stranding cuz every article I saw about the game was like "Couldn't understand a single thing that happened 10/10" but I think speed-running The Locked Tomb series only a few months ago prepared me perfectly. I didn't get half of what went down in those books and I love them with all my heart. Turns out confusing post-apocalyptic necromancy with peculiar humour, life/death energies, splitting souls between body/mind, unique worldbuilding, cosmic horror and homoerotic vibes is the perfect niche for me
#death stranding#the locked tomb#gideon the ninth#hideo kojima#harrow the ninth#girl I was so lost in the book#and I loved every second of it#both DS and TLT do fantastic lead up to twists tbh#where you're confused about something for most of the story#and then suddenly everything clicks into place#this post in general is aimed at a very niche audience#but also i can't be the only one#both are such beautiful narratives about love loss life and death#about fate and ending the world because you think you know better#I feel like there should be some overlap in this venn diagram#there's a moment where Sam goes 'what's even the point' while doing mission shit near the end of the game and Lou makes some kind of noise#And it reminded me of the scene near the end of Nona where she remembers Noodle is with them#Like thats what life is about#to protect and care and to give out kindness to those we love#the point is that there might even be one small being that makes life worth fighting for#even when you're exhausted
