Thinking many many thoughts about how Jean was Riko's partner for a YEAR and was still rooming with Goon #3. Because that was how unwilling Riko was to let go of Kevin. And how that implies that Jean was placed as his partner both because of the practicality of Kevin being gone AND as a punishment for letting him go in the first place. Being partners with Jean could actually slow Riko down depending on how often he's hurt (because I don't think Riko was all that exempt from the rules to the point where his partner's performance would completely not matter) and he was still placed there. Riko was just THAT angry at him over Kevin's escape. And all the while he was keeping Kevin's side of room like an altar, even back when he didn't even think Kevin could PLAY, because of an injury he caused.
#'average aftg fan thinks about Kevins side of the room once a day.' factoid. headboard georg (me) is thinking on it at all times#everything about the perfect court makes me so absolutely insane i am chewing on glass#do you guys think that Jean would still have distracted Riko if he knew Kevin was going to leave?#moreover. do you guys REALLY think Jean didn't at least suspect he was leaving#because tsc is probably going to prove me wrong but I think he would and he knew#anyway. i said it before and i will say it again#the kevriko toxic teen girl homoerotic friendship rizz is unparalleled#riko moriyama the man that you are. they could never make me think you're uninteresting I want to use your brain as a saltshaker#I don't think Riko (or Tetsuji for that matter since he prompted it) ever actually realised what Kevin's injury MEANT. like for real#it wasn't putting him in his place it was destroying the very idea of the perfect court. it was DONE#if Kevin hadn't recovered. if the plot of AFTG hadn't happened. how long would it have taken for Riko to realize#that HE killed the very thing he built his life around and was just dragging it behind him like a corpse (Jean)#kevin day#riko moriyama#jean moreau#the sunshine court#all for the game#the perfect court

im forcing you all to look shady-car-salesman erik
[What If Magneto Had Formed The X-Men With Professor X?]
#snap chats#DUDE WHAT IS THAT. I SCREAMED#also before any of you go read this dont it's so nothing. the title LIED it's the most nothing story ive read so far#thankfully this is only a one shot but man. i shouldve listened in that This Is Isn't Worth It#this is literally the only time erik's in the whole thing too btw bar a prologue recapping what happens in the og timeline#im so deadass like he also shows up in some bg shots but thats literally it he says nothing else beyond this page#'what if magneto formed the xmen with charles' god yeah what if. i sure wouldve loved to read that.#'what if they formed the xmen' genuinely yeah how did they do that. can we see that PLEASE.#the only perceivable difference is that erik lives at the x mansion and Probably isnt terrorizing people. and has this god forsaken look#i rescind my statement he's terrorizing ME with that beard and. //gestures everywhere else//#he looks like he's going to try to scam me into buying a shitty ferrari i cant ill take the viking beard just not this#also i think gaby and erik are just. inexplicably married????? they never cover that ???? thats just a thing to vaguely acknowledge#they dont even say it there's a book that's credited as 'erik magnus lehnsherr' and 'gabrielle haller lensherr' like ok. what.#they dont even properly tell us why eriks here or like. how erik and charles find the xmen. or why gaby's here vjeALKJEK#LIKE COOL HI GABS. WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE she's a mutant now. forgot about that. ???????????????#the weird plot did distract me from. Whatever This Is but now im focusing on it again and im dying#i think what's really killing me is the earrings like oh my god. wow ok. wow...... terrible choice !#if i squint i can imagine the ponytail's gone from his side profile and it's a lil better but ...... jljalKjalJA#anyway i said id read every xmen comic and. regretting some choices but we ball#for now im gonna go wind down ... maybe doodle a bit who's to say ..

The thing is I loved what we got of Sousa in Shield and yet I don’t like that he’s there you see
#maybe this is about ships a little bit for me I’m embarrassed to admit#but story wise it doesn’t make a lot of narrative sense to me#and also I know he was put there because Steve was back for Peggy#and onSteve’s side I’m so glad he came back and got to be with Peggy!#but I watched agent carter more than I did the captain America movies and so Togo through a whole incredibly well executed arc about grief#and having to move on and having to live anyways AND she got to see him before she died freed and alive and home anyways#it just felt like. we didn’t need that#Steve got it as an extra grace a miracle! but it felt like it yanked Peggy out of her plot to let Steve have a prize#nobody kill me I can’t believe I’m talking about marvel ships in twenty twenty five I’m so sorry#that’s just how I FEEL#sorry sorry sorry

I love Sonic games cause nobody has any clue wtf is happening half the time.
They are all just doing their own thing when they all randomly meet up, each knowing about 2% of the plot, and then the worlds ending and Eggman is up to his shit again, time to beat him with the power of friendship woohoo!
#talking specifically about the adventure games up to 06#everyone has their own side plot that have nothing to do with the main plot until suddenly it does#for example sa1. sonic sees a funky guy and beats him up then gets jumped by everybody then hes fighting a god#big is literally just there#in sa2 sonic for once knows somehwat of whats happening for once#knuckles on the other hand is just trying to find the emerald shards and ends up in space#poor guy had no clue what was happening#in heroes the main three are the only ones who kinda know what’s happening#everyone is off doing their own shit and beating each other up for literally no reason#in 06 sonic is so out of the loop#hes just trying to save elise when he gets jumped by a random guy who can throw shit with his mind and insists hes going to end the world#then he gets stabbed and has to fight the god of time#i love it so much#none of these fuckers can communicate#stuff just happens around them and its an average tuesday#dont even get me started on shadow the hedgehog#nobody had a singke fucjing clue what was happening outside of shadow#theres aliens coming down killing people and shadows having existential crisis while sonic over here at max energy goofing off#idek why knuckles is there but hes there for some reason#the chaotix are just around doing whatever is it they do#its so chaotic#nobody can communicate and they are all running in separate directions that somehow lead to the same place#its so great#peak storytelling 10/10 sega bring this back#i crave the absolutely convoluted plots where I dont know what’s happening and niether does anyone else#sonic the hedgehog#sth#sa2#sonic 06#shadow the hedgehog

replaying dragon age inquisition is just an exercise in “the rebel mages would not fucking do that”
#da#my posts#specifically the hostile ones hanging out in the hinterlands for no good reason.#at least they gave the crazy hostile templars a motivation. a really weak one but still. At least they have a goal.#‘kill at mages. don’t gaf about anyone else’ ok. fine.#‘kill everyone you see for some reason. we need to steal their belongings I guess????’ insane. what the hell.#the could have at least done some blood magic about it. it would have been a boring repeat of da2 themes but at least there would be themes?#it’s just so STUPID. especially coming off of a fresh da2 playthrough.#like there’s some dumb stuff in da2 to give you an excuse to fight both mages and templars as generic npcs don’t get me wrong.#but not this much. and unlike da2 you and your companions comment on it as if it makes any sort of sense lol#also I hate that they decided that the chantry explosion killed a bunch of people (which is not supported at all by either the environments#or dialogue of da2 btw. the game is mainly concerned about anders murdering elthina not randos lol)#but that will come in later.#anyway. every note I find in the game from the mages is so insane. just found the area where the templars burned down a house with mages#locked inside. but because both sides have to be bad for dai plot reasons#the mages killed the peasants that lived in the house for damn reason lmao. AFTER robbing them on the road earlier.#insane choices from the writing team on this one.#what were you trying to SAYYYY#like I’m ok with the mages being a bit brutal. that happens in war. but there’s like. reasons? usually?#like as much as orsino turning himself into a flesh beast is insane and weird both-sides-ism plot device.#at least they tried to give him a reason (even if it didn’t make sense in the context of hawke and co absolutely destroying the templars he#was so convinced were going to kill them all)#the hinterlands mages genuinely have no reason to attack random passersby.#ESPECIALLY SINCE IM PLAYING A MAGE.#like?????? hello I am one of you. how the hell do you even know I’m not one of the rebels.#sorry anyway I’m upsetti spaghetti.

Do you like having multiple chapter fics/WIPs in progress? Are you planning/working on writing more multi chapter works this year?
Is the Chris finding Eddie's journal fic going to be multi chapter?
I do like multi-chapter fics and I've been getting into them more often, but an idea has to grip me long enough to complete it since my anxiety won't let me post until it's done, so I need motivation alone to carry me through all the way through. But it's really cool that my skills as a writer have grown so much that I'm capable of writing those larger stories, had I'd been three years younger and none of those fics would have existed!
Though I do hope to write more of them in the coming year if my brain has fun ideas (I'm half playing with a follow up of the I Do verse, but I'm not making promises on that). I like having them to post and writing them, but fleshing out a large plot takes time and I don't know how much I'll have in the coming year, so we'll see.
And the Chris finds Eddie's diary should probably be a multi-chapter since it's already 50k as of now and it's not done yet. What can I say, it got out of hand lmao, I planned on it being 10k rip. But I think it works better as a one shot so I'm probably just gonna post it as a whole once I've finished it.
#rr ask#thank uu for the ask <333#I really hope my brain comes up with a funky plot that i can get my claws in#but it's truly just a question of if#im just a humble jester dependant on brain chemistry#but there is a very real possibility#especially 9-1-1#bc i have brainrot#it's already in my top 4 of most written abt fandoms#it's insane in a good way lmao#also very thrilled abt the chris finds eddies diary fix#it's an emotional gut punch for mosg of it#but it's been really interesting to explore chris#he's so underrated as a character in fics#like yeah he's often there but more as a side character#(also guilty of that in the i do verse)#and that's fine. but holy shit this kid is traumatized tok#and Eddie's childhood? kill me omg

So My plan for world domination is that I'll draw
And then uh
Yeah
No so hear me out
I'm gonna conquer one side with indian lolis. Because the lahenga and sari leave so much waist exposed, it's super easy to just... tailor the clothes a little to expose more
And then I'll conquer the other side by drawing yaoi
And then I can conquer the ones nobody wanna conquer because they're a detriment to society by making an alt account, canceling myself, and then fixing my own art
And slowly, Indian aesthetics will subconsciously seep into everyone's minds and then my culture will be popular and more people will draw it because it's pretty
#what a stupid ass plan avo kill yourself#true. the drawing part is the hardest and i prolly wont lmao#im gonna boost the gdp of india watch me#shitposting#ok im out of steam. im still not coding tho#maaaaaan i dont want to do it!!! i want someone else to do it!!!!#because i want to use that cowboy anime character to show off old western US culture#i cant do 10000000 things#and both these fuckass countries need me#i need to draw boothills ass in thw wrong region. i need him in Sacramento during the gold rush!!!!!!!!#actually.... he couldve been there for a while. huh.#i need to draw him in a mining town!!!!!!!!!#i cant do it all#i cant stand for this slander on either side#do i research rajput culture or ranchero culture? help me#indian marketing of their culture is genuinely atrocious#but americans.....who the FUCK brainwashed you. we have culture! weve learned about it social studies and PE every single goddamn year!!!!#what is this? another cia plot? what is this mass hallucination in the youth??#yall stress me out#i used to live in a historic town from the wild west era. its a cultural location marked on the maps#in the 1800s it was huge for lynchings street murders and other violent crimes. hah. aha. ouch.#ok but like which of these towns wasnt. get real#i didnt grow up there but still. too bad. i was there. its my culture now. i left some asianness there. have at it. its yours.#among heaven and earth i alone am the cultural appropriater#im shitting with you i didnt take it. im just observing and sometimes participating. its really cool#i have small pieces of fools gold. got it from sacramento when we went to learn about the gold rush

His Valet is, thus far, deliciously hot, angsty, and hilarious (which is really what SM LaViolette books consistently give me). About a third in, and we’ve had:
—our hero getting CONSTANTLY hard during his valet’s Very Necessary bath massages and towel drying (of the ass, between the legs, so on)
—being like “Am I bi? Who knows. That’s a problem for Tomorrow Me”
—(he’s definitely bi but his valet is also secretly a woman…? She uses she/her pronouns and is definitely AFAB but honestly I get genderfluid/generally non-binary vibes)
—she’s like “I am DESPERATE for this man’s dick” and does the logical thing which is to set up a secret masked (and bewigged) rendezvous at a brothel
—during which she realizes that oh! Actually taking a dick is in fact kind of different and more ouch than all the sex she’s had with women!
—and AFTER which she runs home and puts her valet disguise back on to get back to accidentally-on-purpose giving this man confusing boners, knowing he was WITHIN HER like HALF AN HOUR AGO
—her time management? Impeccable
#romance novel blogging#she like never sleeps she’s just thirsting or getting railed#this man’s side plot of discovering his sexuality is really killing me tho#‘fellas is it gay to wanna face fuck your valet’#YEAH.#IT IS.

I don't usually say this kind of stuff but goddamn Tobias Menzies in Manhunt was... woof... yeah I was watching for the plot...
Hello sir... did you need to use that voice? Sir? Excuse me, sir?
I'm convinced he knew exactly what he was doing 😩
#the plot was those silky waistcoat - that fantastic top hat and leather coat#Tobias Menzies#Moongaze's interlude in Manhunt#I swear he already have a deep voice but I am CONVINCED he dropped several octave just to haunt me#listen - I'm not american and didn't even know Lincoln was killed in a theater so I can and I will fall prey to Mr. Menzies doing *that*#without questioning what's up with the RPF...#thirsting on side blog#?#anyway that was a very good show!

I’ve never been a huuuge Beetlejuice girlie but I almost want to get a hold of the sequel script and chisel it down to the movie it actually very easily could have been 😂 I’m that tempted because it’s so obviously there

and the thing is i feel so very strongly that there is a difference between a route-structured romance visual novel and a dating simulator but thats literally the least important thing on earth to feel strongly about. but i do.
#not all otome games are dating sims!! some are. the tokimeki girls sides are. but not all#not all galge are dating sims either! most i see around getting localized arent actually#if i cant raise stats with a calendar system im not calling it a dating sim. i just cant. it hurts me#wait im losing the plot in my head. wait. wait im thinking. wait is leisure suit larry a galge-#(is shot down and killed where i stand)

when i was watching some of a pentiment playthrough the other night & reflecting on brother piero as kind of a model of the ideal role that the protagonists play (& foil/counterpart to the antagonist, by extension, as the protagonists are) as people trying to discover & tell the truth but having to be aware that they're also constructing a story & even if they feel they've come up with the most Truthful Story in some fashion they also have to be aware this will still only be interpreted by others who may see different things in it & want different things out of it, the limitations of their roles & relationships with those around them as well as just being another person among people regardless of how they're viewed....piero looking at andreas's completed masterpiece & praising that he's depicted things as they are, or more specifically how andreas has seen them to be, rather than what we might want to see; & piero before & after this always qualifying his input/opinion with like "but you don't have to listen to me" "but it's just the opinion of one old monk" etc sort of Humble Monk Perspective that is in earnest (rather than like passive aggressive or anything lol) & like this approach is still subject to being questioned & considered when piero being quite as So Be It Accepting Of Whatever Happens & uninterested in control or even exerting much influence over things is part of what andreas jumps in over like hey i personally like this guy plus he indeed probably didn't do this & is just being sacrificed b/c Someone Must Die to punish tassing for flouting authority (killing this baron for being so terrible like well could've been any of us) but then naturally that doesn't make piero necessarily Wrong in any way either, not wrong of You to have anything done To You. just the game also has its perspective & points to make but also isn't trying to do it from on high Over You, the player
#pentiment#such that [closes eyes deep breath over the frustration in checking reddit comments for info about like so anyone have a list of who in#tassing is present in which acts / is gone in which future acts] & there's ppl talking like This Is A Mystery With Correct Answers#okay whatever but when someone was like ''i don't think it was ferenc b/c when he's executed: a Truly Guilty party wouldn't act like that''#kill Me why don't you#well anyway. brother piero....that moment at the. hands washing place where andreas has the dialogue choices#to be like He Was Wrong You Know & defend piero (who will be like Haha It's Fine. You Are My Pride) like it's just such a fun little moment#having it Fixed like this like andreas already has this Significance to his relationship with piero / cares about him#preceding & despite whatever player choices; like immediately being introduced to that in the first set of dialogue options#i.e. the abbot told me to spend less time talking to brother piero. save it for the loquarium fellas (gernot would/did not say this)#imagine a good humored gernot....one must imagine: abbot matthias#thinking of sister illuminata's reluctance to Opine / Comment also similar to & More So than piero; as a humble / devout nun#but you can get to that point she'll comment on matthias like to err on the side of / too much kindness is to stumble at the feet of god#what was i talking about. that yeah anyway of course it's Plot Relevant that protecting piero Must be andreas's motivation but#pentiment does plenty of like. we don't have to See the relationship in some ''overarching'' way to interpret the emotions / meaning alread#there through what is shown of the Emergent & Observable To Us dynamics & character actions/responses to whatever feelings at play#again re: the themes of being aware of the limits of what's communicated / shown to us inadvertently or on purpose /#our interpretation & perspective....pentiment you are so fun. the player i was watching having such lively responses like#the act two dream that reveals this context/info about andreas withheld even from the player till then while there's been Relevant Instance#already that the player has been free to interpret & judge while unknowingly Lacking this info/context. one of my fave maneuvers of the gam

kamen rider really is a series about women. with obstacles. to me
#my art#doodles#kamen rider#kamen rider fourze#miu kazashiro#i expected to end up liking her bc kamen rider is really good at writing the women interesting to me despite them being side characters#but i was not expecting an actual like. heartfelt She Is Not Just A Mean Girl moment and not in the Shes Actually Nice way#she IS mean. there didnt seem to be any redemption for that. but she also didnt belittle her rival she did everything in her power to win#even when she got injured in the process because that challenge was real to her. and she belittled her fans only because#she understood that their support was false and shallow and therefore meaningless to everyone#this is the miu show. gentaro give her the belt#THE THING ABOUT KAMEN RIDER IS THAT THE FEMALE CHARACTERS ARE ALWAYS REALLY INTERESTING BUT THEY STILL DO NOT MATTER#IT KILLS ME. HOW ARE YOU GOING TO MAKE A CHARACTER WHO IS INTEGRAL TO THE PLOT AND ALSO NOT HAVE HER INVOLVED IN ANYTHING#(that one is about hana from den-o and i know there were circumstances surrounding the actress' health it just still bothered me)
