Whoever conceived and animated this moment, I hope they're doing well and thriving. This is S-rank romance stuff here.

Hello! Could I ask how many chapters does the jp server currently have? I believe you're at the 12th part but I'm not sure. Part 7 came out in the eng server and the measly 16 chapters with no chapters within chapters destroyed me, so I'm trying to estimate how many we'll get when parts come out

yep, we're in the middle of 7-12 right now! they started splitting them up further starting with 11, so we got chapter 11 part 1, then chapter 11 part 2, and we're due chapter 12 part 2 (and maybe 3?) later this month. we've been getting them more regularly though, so it seems like they're switching to smaller but more frequent story drops!

I think Eng is following the same chapter breakdown as JP for these ones, and they've mostly been a decent length each IMO -- 9 was on the short side (two-person dorms go by so fast...) but we're getting nice little wrap-ups to the characters' arcs so I personally haven't felt, like, shortchanged or anything so far! it is SUPER hard being patient though (I'm lucky enough to be able to play it immediately and I'm still dying over here), so. ...I'm hoping the smaller drops help with that. :')

if you want the actual chapter numbers so far:

chapter 8 - 117-139

chapter 9 - 140-157

chapter 10 - 158-191

chapter 11 - 192-211 (part 1) / 212-226 (part 2)

chapter 12 - 227-244 (part 1)

(pretty sure these are correct, but if someone notices that they're off, please let me know!)

i have a theory about shinji, gin, and aizen, but i'm not really sure how to word it.

we never really see shinji and gin interact all that much, which makes sense bc both of them have significantly more important relationships with aizen, but at the same time it's a little odd how much there isn't.

like. gin cut hiyori in half. shinji is understandably pissed about that, but he aims that anger at aizen - and this seems to be one of the very few things in the bleach world that honestly isn't on him bc he never told gin to do that, he never even implied it. hiyori was never a threat to him. hell, we don't even know if she was charging in the right direction; if anything, attacking her implies that she was which is a really stupid thing to do when you're surrounded by a bunch of people who super want you dead and would kill you if they could be sure you weren't tricking them into stabbing each other (ofc it could also be a fakeout but still)

but i don't remember shinji's beef ever really being with gin, even tho he didn't seem to anticipate that gin was working with aizen the whole time during tbtp. so like does he feel responsibility there? cuz gin went straight from academy to 3rd seat and shinji could plausibly feel like that sent him right to aizen bc he doesn't know that gin was always aiming for that. did he blame himself? does he feel like he should've seen it coming? does he still see him as some weird genius kid? does he just view gin as an extension of aizen, which is both dehumanizing to an extent but also entirely fair bc gin did that to himself?

the thing is, since we never really see them interact much, it's kind of only interesting on shinji's side of things, bc gin doesn't really care about much outside of whatever the fuck he thought he was doing and the version of rangiku that he has in his head who needs back something that the real one doesn't ever seem to have realized she lost to begin with. gin's so disconnected with basically everybody that most of the time you can usually assume his thoughts are just "lol. lmao" and there's no reason to think that doesn't extend to shinji as well (gin has deep thoughts on: aizen, ichigo, and matsumoto (massive asterisk on that one ofc) and i think everyone else is kinda set dressing to him lmao the guy is Fucked Up)

anyway i think it's interesting to toy around with that relationship as it was in reality as well as how it might've been perceived, but also in the sense of both of them being sort of opposite ends of the manchild spectrum - shinji leans into his childish side but still has a fairly adult worldview, and gin is able to pull off maturity to an extent but was never able to escape a deeply childish mindset

why are you determined to make this joke work sir

middle-aged male tourist at the museum, during a discussion about the cafe nearby and how I recommend their hot chocolate: what's your last name?

me, thinking he's having trouble reading my name tag: oh, it's Surname

him: is that Irish?

me: well, it can be short for Longer Irish Name Containing Surname, but for my family it's English from-

him: if you were Irish, we'd know what was in that hot chocolate! haha! ;)

me: ...ah. well, I have to go relieve my colleague upstairs now, so enjoy the rest of your day!

him, still in tones of high jocularity: what about your boss? I bet he's Irish! what's his last name?

me: ooookay have a nice day bye!

im not terrible at math but im so fucking slow at it and any time pressure just makes my brain work less. However due to my enjoyment of beer ive grown quite proficient at calculating tips

i really enjoy that dragon age has such a clear chronology, in that each game takes place on a precise year. with most companions, we don't know their exact age, but i do love to picture their life chronology next to world events. and i love to do that even more with my characters... like during origins, jena is a child. during inquisition, she's just joined the wardens. she's out there...... watch out

Heeeeeey I’m making a Stobotnik playlist. Any song recommendations?

Maybe I’ll even make it so the songs are in chronological order of the movies (like s1 Stobotnik, s2 Stobotnik, s3 Stobotnik pre and post Robotnik’s death) like my Hannigram one…

Especially Taylor Swift songs that work well with Stobotnik since this idea all started from listening to My Boy Only Breaks his Favorite Toys as Stone. Poor stone:(

Hannigram is called: Be Gay Do Cannibalism on Apple Music if anyone is interested in that. Realized I never actually shared that info

the kitchen extended universe continues to materialise: it's lord "bet, bruh" and general "how fucking dare you", on their couch (it's definitely zhu's couch)

if they make him stop replying to mail i'm gonna lose it tbh. he has his friends and family ofc, but i don't see why he should stop connecting with people he enjoys talking to because these assholes are bored and want to leech off of him for money. am i mean if i say that i wish some of the heat around this case would die down? i just can't anyomore with all of this clowns, i wish there was a way to have only people who care about him as a human being rather than just a hot guy to thirst over and now apparently, as a chance to make money. humanity has reached a new low.

people not talking about him could cost him his life tho, his only bit of real humanness and connection to the outside world is through his letters and at a time when everybody with an influential voice is trying to convince the public that he is a monster, a killer, a terrorist, the only way for his voice to get out is through the letters and no way should he be stopped from answering his mail

also the people who're mostly talking about him are the younger generation, a generation notorious for their 'out of sight, out of mind' attitude, so yes, not talking about him and his letters could potentially make the mainstream media's voice of proclaiming his guilt the only voice in this case, and without any opposition to that mainstream voice, or support to Luigi from the public, the jury could potentially walk into the courtroom fully believing his guilt and not his innocence and we gotta do whatever we can to counter that
