Sister just got taken off of a zine project from a client and is out at her partner's bc she's upset, so no End da Tears King tonight :(

Buuuuuuuuut...

I didn't do much yesterday other than explore around the very beginning area and forage. I managed to take down all of the bots? in the area though and next time I play I will be entering my first...shrine? temple??? thing??? idk it's to get power for my fucked up arm to open the door to allegedly get to Zelda after everything that happened in tbe beginning of the game lol

I managed to get *4* wooden sticks though, some arrows + a wooden bow, and learned to roast things by the fire!! :D

I'm a little nervous about entering my first ever shrine, bc I read a "no spoilers quick tips" thing on reddit that told me that I should run away in the beginning bc everything will vastly overpower me, and to forage as much as possible but again we'LL SEE LOL

Why do I feel like that was level 1 of this massive fight 😭 this does not bode well. I will now have an overwhelming sense of dread for the next two weeks. Love that for me 🙃

getting back into my greek mythology phase as an adult is so weird because like the stories are such a dear and a familiar part of my childhood (and honestly part of what helped me extricate myself from an abusive evangelical environment) but I've also grown a lot as a person since then so I can't help but view them through different lenses, y'know?

such as:

the lens of a religious studies scholar who can't help but be fascinated with vernacular religion, apotropaic magic, cultural variation in ritual, and hints that these stories might be signs of clashing religions from different regions

the lens of a feminist who's a lot less willing to accept some of the ideas that I accepted as a child who'd been raised in a very religious environment

the lens of a grown-ass adult who could probably save enough money to go see these places that were so unreachable as to be near-fictional to me when I was a child

In case it's hard to read/understand: "If I had a nickel for every time I had a story with a blonde girl named after a plant, who has a German father and a French mother but absolutely hates said mom, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice."

weird, extremely-specific tropes in my stories: pt 1

hm. mixed feelings

[memorys-skyscraper]

saw this on twitter and immediately had so many thoughts

probably a good time, rikiya would be watching romcoms and crying the entire flight but haruka and nishiki would be playing madlibs or looking up their astrology charts or w/e and itd be cute

yamai probably smells overwhelmingly of cigarettes and/or like an old man's closet but he'd mind his own business, normal flight

daigo would be turned around talking to mine and occasionally starting shit with ryuji the whole flight, annoying

adachi and ichiban would be playing flick football the first half of the flight and youd get hit by the little paper football like every 4 minutes, ichi would apologize every time and invite you to play and also offer to share snacks. when they both end up falling asleep adachi snores like a motherfucker. depends on your noise tolerance/if you like flick football

shinada's either writing up articles for work super last minute and is therefore looking pics of tits & ass with no regard for the fact that he's in public, or he's watching live baseball and yelling at the screen, while tanimura watches 11 episodes of law and order: svu in a row. depends on your tolerance for whatever shinada's doing/how well you fit in the middle seat given shinada's build

akiyama gets up constantly to both annoy kiryu and to just walk the aisle and spy on other people's business, kiryu's playing the in-flight trivia game the whole way and gets way too into it but will leave you alone. generally fine if you dont mind getting up

goated seat imo, joongi would mind his own business and/or be too busy talking to zhao to bother you and also would be perfectly polite about getting up to let you out. however you would be subjected to whatever the fuck would be happening in front of you

miserable seat, the only way this is tolerable is if either saejima or majima agrees to swap, but saejima's too damn big for the middle seat anyway, and majima probably refuses just for the sake of being difficult. saejima spends the whole flight trying to sleep but can't bc majima keeps bugging the shit out of him, and you'd be stuck in the crossfire. worst seat by far

i personally always need a window seat on a flight (preferably towards the front) or i get sick as hell so im going 7 > 2 > 4 > 1 > 6 > 3 > 5 > 8

jacob anderson deserves 36 emmys for 1) the monologue he gives the priest, absolutely stunning, chills, no notes, and 2) selling the rest of this bullshit dialogue they make him say
