you want a new kind of guy, fine, i raise you: the lady i was briefly roommates with in college who once smoked a blunt at a party and then spent an hour confessing earnestly to me that she genuinely preferred reading detailed episode recaps over actually watching the tv show in question

okay sorryyyy long ramble about the dark beginnings teaser/sxs gens in general incoming. i feel like what we see in the teaser is . well "not real" probably isnt the right way to put it but i dont think its an actual direct flashback to shadows past. i think that shadow is trapped in his own memories. most obvious evidence for this is that the whole story of sonic generations is sonic revisiting his past adventures because of the time eater and eggman messing up the timeline so it makes sense that shadows story which is happening at the same time would be a similar situation. also theres these weird glitchy effects at certain points in the teaser which i think are meant to imply something isnt right here

also sidenote absolutely Haunting how maria grabbing his hand is what triggers it and we specifically see gun soldiers among the glitches. anyway. shadow also noticeably gasps/flinches when it happens which makes it seem like he saw it too

also based on all the promotional stuff we've seen so far black doom seems to be the main antagonist of shadows campaign. and its shown in shadows game that black doom has some level of access to shadows mind/memories and will use that to his advantage. like he literally made shadow watch the ark raid again and went "look what they did to you arent humans terrible". so this does feel like something hed be willing to do . or maybe its not Just black doom doing this maybe part of it is also caused by the time eater but the emphasis on black doom makes it seem like hes at least partially responsible

and speaking of black doom i dont think that he literally came back from the dead i think that the timeline being messed up just allowed him to show up again despite being dead. unless theyre gonna reveal that he survived somehow but idk him showing back up after all this time Specifically in a time travel related game makes me think he did die

idk how to end this post. shadow wasnt at sonics party because he was busy reliving his trauma for the millionth time

Ending the last recap of Season 5 of Zane screaming "NOOOOO" is fucking hilarious

Goggling if I'm gay for my best friend....nothing quite like it

[brennacedria]

One thing about Welcome to Night Vale that makes it so engaging for me is that Cecil's repetition subconsciously created this sort of call and response effect in me.

The easy one is the Glow Cloud (all hail). Like, even if I hadn't typed that all hail just now, I still would (and did) say it. Others are similar follow-ups and descriptions immediately following mostly proper nouns:

John Peters--you know, the farmer?

Larry Leroy, out on the edge of town,

Old Woman Josie (out by the car lot)

...and various iterations of how Steve Carlsberg is just the worst

These are just a tiny handful of examples; I'd say there at least a dozen or two that have wormed their way into my subconscious to be recited without effort or awareness as they occur.

I know that for some people, this kind of repetition is going to be an irritant. But for me, it not only cements these characters in their own reality but also brings me into Night Vale itself. It brings Night Vale to me.

the only bit of fantasy high that I have not watched is the 6+ hour behemoth that is the sophomore year finale and even after all this time it still makes my adhd brain want to shrivel up and die

sure Sean's sketchbook handwriting is messy but it definitely feels a lot more realistic than how typeface neat Max's is in her journal. or Chloe's, even. that being said their doodles do fuck.

♡ Episode 21 | Final Re-Coupling | GENEVA ISLAND

♡ Autumn has decided that she actually doesn’t mind being single, and so she is a lot more focused on herself and spending her time in the villa however she wants, which includes working out with Rowan. Afterwards, she spent the morning cooking breakfast with all the other islanders. Her and Darion chatted a lot, as they usually do, getting to know him better before the final re-coupling. At the re-coupling, Darion picked her, and so they are the first of the final couples.

♡ Judi spent her morning chatting and hanging with the other islanders. Her and Samora have grown a great friendship in the few short days that they have known each other and feel deep down that they are very similar. At the re-coupling, Rowan picked her, making them the second final couple.

♡ Jasmine woke up and chatted with Samora, getting to know her better. She really values friendships with women and always takes the time to make connections. At the re-coupling, Justin picked her, making them the last of the final couples.

♡ Samora spent her day chatting amongst the islanders. She hasn’t been able to get to know any of the boys in a romantic way, but she has enjoyed making friends with everyone, especially Judi who shares special interests with her. At the re-coupling, she was the last girl standing which makes her the last single islander to be leaving the villa.

♡ Rowan woke up and had his usual morning workout followed by a relaxing drink. He has been able to enjoy the vibes of the villa greatly and is excited to be leaving with amazing memories and even better friendships. At the re-coupling, he chose Judi because even though they have had their fair share of ups and downs while being in the villa, love in the villa is like a rollercoaster which is the same as in real life, and if they can get through it together here, he has high hopes for what comes in the outside. As well, he values the foundation that they have grown together, appreciates her adventurous nature, and couldn’t see himself coupling up with anyone else.

♡ Justin woke up and hung out with the other islanders in the kitchen while making breakfast. Spirits were really high all around and he was able to overcome his issues with Jasmine in order to move forward in their relationship. At the re-coupling, he chose her because in his life so much of what he has been taught has always made sense to him one way or another, but experiencing love on his own has been a journey that no one could truly prepare him for, one that he has lately been questioning if he is even ready for. But even that thought isn’t as scary as the thought of going forward in life without having this girl in his life.

♡ Darion had a really good day and wasn’t tense at all, he has decided that his time is short here and he wants to make the most of it before he regrets not doing so. He had a great time chatting with Autumn and having a few drinks with her. Later at the re-coupling, he chose her because even though they haven’t known each other for as long as some of the other couples, he has loved getting to know her deeply and honestly, and truly wants to grow together, and continue to flourish with her in their new relationship.

NO WAY..... THIS IS FUCKING AWESOME

[lazyscience]

DCC Challenge, Day 2

Time for the recap!

Crawler @quartzandsundry

New Achievement! The Ties that Bind!

So one becomes more, and more, and suddenly lazyscience has a whole party to grind with, that lucky bitch. What an XP hog. I hope she (coughs) Anyway, this accomplishment isn't about HER, it's about YOU. And not at all about those rotten cats. What is it with Earth and their ridiculously overpowered native pet mobs. They come pre-equipped with Sepsis and Mind Control debuffs, it's CHEATING. hmph.

Only the FIRST person in the party who's a crawler killer gets PvP coupons. I'm just saying!

Reward: A Silver WAP box with arm-length Gauntlets of Gripping, giving you +5 grapple against mobs that are naturally aquatic OR that fear water! What you do with that's entirely up to you. I would never make any suggestions. Ahem.

Crawler @kathrynalexao3:

New Achievement! Trap, Educate, Release!

You couldn't have smushed ANY of them? Really? I work, and I slave, coming up with threatening mobs small enough to step on (starts quietly sobbing in a corner)

No, no, it's fine. I'm fine. Fuck you.

Reward: A Gold I Believe The Children Are Our Future box with a Tome of Acute Ears to keep track of what they're up to behind you, and a +5 Teacher's Apple (so you know how wisdom and sense of humor aren't reported stats in here? well they absolutely are. +5 to Wisdom, +5 to sense of humor for 30 hours.) You absolute INGRATE.

(what do you MEAN, some of them stepped on each other? Gross! I'm a PODOPHILE, not a PEDOPHILE! it is TOO different!)

Crawler @king-ofconfusion:

New Achievement! Help, I Need Somebody!

Is that...really an achievement? I mean sure, you Earth crawler types were super alienated from each other before the crawl even started, and I guess that makes my job easier so thank you, but now, here you are, acknowledging that the best resource you have is each other...

wow. I can't decide whether I'm irritated or horrified. But if I do MY job, you're cooked, so I guess I'm...intrigued? At your providing me enrichment, perhaps even...professional development?

Reward: A Bronze Get By With A Little Help From My Friends box, with Heal Scrolls x5 and Dispel Curse x5. But don't get too used to support-only, crawler. Nobody gets out of here without a FEW mobs to their credit. Or fellow crawlers, whatever pushes your cuticles back. I mean, I'M certainly not going to judge. Unless it's funny.

Crawler @oreniaa:

New Achievement! Look Ma, I Aten't Dead!

Survival instinct's a powerful thing - and yet here you are, part of this party. Well, I suppose survival instinct and people judgement aren't ENTIRELY the same thing, are they. And it is nice to have other people to maintain the defensive perimeter. Now, keep the party going by getting out and getting in some interesting trouble. Sneak up on a few mobs! Train a skill or two! Or let a crawler killer or two past the perimeter and walk away whistling.

As long as you don't bore me. Nobody likes me when I'm bored. Not even me.

Reward: A Bronze Teflon box, with a tome of Stealth to sneak up on whatever needs sneaking up on. Mods, teammates, whoever. Up to you, really.

Crawler @cairfrey :

New Achievement! Guilded Lily!

By opening your guild to lazyscience, you've certainly made life interesting for yourself. Exciting! Hope you're ready for ridiculous shenanigans with all kinds of mobs. Keep yourselves busy, and maybe there won't be elites handing out quests!

Maybe. Who can say for sure? Your leveling is your own business, of course. But a happy AI is a happy craw--no. No, I'm not going to abuse either of our intelligence like that. You know I'm happiest when I'm breaking shit, or watching it being broken ☠️ but that said, isn't it happier to be the one breaking? I've always thought so!

Reward: A Gold Don't You Just Want to Go Apeshit? box, including 50 sticks of Hobgoblin Dynamite and six Alarm traps, all of which when triggered, in addition to any other effects you or another crawler may add, will play Limp Bizkit's "Break Stuff" for the approximate half-life of cesium-137 (30.05 years) or until destruction. Call it...incentive, to not be shy about rippin' someone's head off.

Crawler @lazyscience:

Tick-tock said the clock on your physical activity quest. Get cracking, or you won't like the upgrade. Just saying.

New Achievement: Be Kind, Rewind!

Instead of getting mad at getting 3 different stories from two different NPCs at work, you solved the puzzle, scrapped the plan and set a new one into motion.

Here at Dungeon World: Earth, we appreciate when crawlers suck it up and take it when shit goes wrong. The recap show is so much less interesting when they just lay there sobbing waiting for death to take them! We'll hope your patchwork bullshit turns out for the best, hmm? Or at least for a more interesting crisis later on the floor!

Reward: But did you die? You did not, in fact die. And because I'm just that nice, +5% positive reaction from your coworkers.

To the party - your'e doing great! Now get out there and kill, kill, kill!

Don't forget to update me on mobs, quests, or parties for your achievements in the replies to this post, reblogging with additions, or my askbox/DMs!
