location(s) ¡! ❞

He's a versatile dater, he can make any scene his scene: club, bar, concert, dinner. He's already a VIP member there with a table he owns, not to mention a proud shareholder.

His expensive dates are nice restaurants. Casual are much more frequent and range from the rare fast food stop to the movies. He's not above dancing and grinding with you at the club. Gym dates are easy, but that requires a different wardrobe.

Brown chelsea boots; black split neckline t-shirt; washed patch pockets on dark cuffed jeans; joe rocket classic leather motorcycle jacket; timberland belt.

location(s) ¡! ❞

Suede brown blazer; hopsack wide leg pants; white or black turtleneck; chairman dress lace-ups; quarter length black socks; burgundy leather gloss belt; silver cross chain.

Obscure Far Cry Promos and Content

I'm a big far cry fan, which means I have to make my own food in this economy. But sometimes I just want some ACTUAL canon or canon-ish or even just canon-adjacent content, y'know? It has gotten to the point I go into youtube rabbit holes or watch a remarkably below average hallmark movies for 5 minutes of an actor's screentime to hopefully hear Jason or Ajay or whoever talk. And so in these quests, I've found a couple obscure promos. Gonna compile them here for myself mostly :)

Far Cry 3

Far Cry 3 - The Voices of Insanity: Doctor Earnhardt //a live action video with Alec Earnhardt's VA

Far Cry 3 - The Voices of Insanity: Vaas //same thing but with Michael Mando

Hoyt Audition Far Cry 3 //the last part of "The Voices of Insanity" videos, couldn't find the one from Ubisoft's own account but someone else had posted it on youtube

Far Cry 3 for PS3: TV Spot

Far Cry 3 -- Island Survival Guide: Psychopaths, Drugs & Other Dangers // video narrated by Willis Huntley

Far Cry 3 -- The Savages: Vaas & Buck // this video shows a rare render of vaas with tataus on his arm!

Far Cry 3 | The Tribe: Citra & Dennis //this video has a deleted scene where Jason hallucinates the tatau snaking up his arm

Far Cry 3 -- The Tyrant: Hoyt

Far Cry 3 - Insane Edition // this is a promo done for a special edition for the game, Michael Mando probably couldn't shoot the promo himself and just voice acted, and so they used another actor and made it so the camera never sees Vaas's face.

^ There is also a survival guide titled Face Your Insanity written by post-Rook events Jason Brody as part of the Insane Edition.

Far Cry 3 | E3 2012 Step Into Insanity Trailer [NORTH AMERICA] // this has a few close-ups of Jason and Vaas switching places with each other

Far Cry 3 Interviews (via @lulu2992)

Far Cry 3 Tweets by Jeffrey Yohalem, the lead writer. (also compiled by @/lulu2992! Thanks again!)

Far Cry 4

Divya Kandala's Blog (archived on the Wayback Machine) // Divya Kandala is a fictional journalist who wrote a blog about her travels to Kyrat, her blog's basically world-building promo for FC4. You could also find the house she stayed at in Kyrat!

Far Cry 4 TV Commercial

Far Cry 4 | Kyrat Tuk Tuk Stories //this is the MOST we see ajay in third person in promo content

Far Cry 4 - CGI Trailer // this isn't exactly RARE but it took forever for me to find that clip of ajay's eyes reflecting from the kukri. plus he looks EXTREMELY caucasian which really doesn't help the rumors I've heard that they originally wanted Jason again as FC4's protag

Comedy Central Far Cry 4 Commercial feat Danny Pudi & Donald Glover

Far Cry 4 and Childish Gambino: The Collaboration | PS4, PS3 // a music video for Crawl by Childish Gambino done as a collab

Old Archive.Org link to the Far Cry 4 webpage that had a choose your own adventure campaign

^ and the youtube video to promote it

Far Cry 4 | Behind the Scene Trailer 1/3 [Europe] // developer vlogs when they visited Nepal and interviewed the ghurka that became base for Golden Path, you can see the village that resembles Banapur a lot!

Far Cry 4 Performance Capture Interview // you can see Janina Gavankar, Amita's actress doing some mocap in this

Janina Gavankar Talks Far Cry 4 - ^ and the interview with her after

World Gameplay Premiere - Walkthrough E3 2014 - Far Cry 4 // this was to showcase gameplay but they eventually took out this entire mission where you have to wingsuit to Ratu Gadhi (Yuma's fortress), which is a shame because it looked very nice.

Far Cry 5

i'll be honest, im not a fc5 girlie, so i dont usually do a lot of digging, and im pretty sure these are actually not obscure at all. but these are trailers i found that really blew it out of the park. the marketing team for 5 really went HAM

Far Cry 5: Teaser Trailer | Ubisoft //this has a peggie banging someone's head to a church bell rhythmically with the gorgeous view of Montana mountains as backdrop and i for one, find it hilarious

Far Cry 5 | The Sermon - Live Action Trailer

Far Cry 5 | The Baptism - Live Action Trailer //somebody once mentioned this one has Joseph looking like Trevor GTA and i have never quite known peace ever since. it really also shows the reality of how Joseph is actually just really Unwell, and lore that Joseph killed Pastor Jerome's daughter that never showed up in-game.

Far Cry 5: Anything Can Happen, Everything Will - Live Action TV Spot | Trailer // mixes live action and game CGI renders, pretty cool actually!

The Making of Far Cry 5 | Behind the Scenes of Ubisoft [Documentary]

Far Cry 6 Comics

not gonna put in FC6 stuff because they're actually very easy to find! lots of trailers and mocaps and interviews on youtube :) Far Cry 6 actually has a more obscure lore in their comics

Far Cry: Esperanza's Tears comic // this is a Juan-centric prequel comic that features a completely new country, lore about Far Cry universe's political landscape, and lots of cameos from 3-6's characters! very interesting read especially if you're a sucker for backstories like me

Far Cry: Rite of Passage comic // this is more popular as it features Anton telling Diego the backstories for 3-5's villains.

There is also a book titled The Official Far Cry Survival Guide written by a fictional character called Hunter Nash, who supposedly grew up with Hope County-level of a doomsday prepper dad and winds up as a journalist who travels to the locations of 3-6 and wrote how to survive each location accordingly. It's adorned with official artwork of the games and plenty of survival tips. Not much lore-wise, but cool nonetheless! it also fuels my co-workers au ideas but that's personal.

i have actually found stuff like a really old MTV show called Undressed with Gianpaolo Venuta where he uses his Jason voice for his character, and how Patrick Kwok-Choon, the new voice actor for Ajay does voice acting in Thomas the Train Engine and Paw Patrol, and an indie movie with Greg Bryk where he wears fun sunglasses like Joseph, but that's neither here nor there to the franchise, so eh. // i'll edit this post if i find more, so maybe check back sometimes!

[brf-rumortrackinganon]

Something to remember about Meghan is that she’s big into projecting and deflecting. A lot of the rumors we’ve heard about William, particularly regarding his temper and hotheadedness, don’t fully match up to what we see of him/his character in public…but does match up to what we know of Harry:,,,

Spot on, Rumortracking Anon, and I’ll go a step further, where you have not on your list (although I’m sure that you, as rumortracker extraordinaire, are already aware), and add some of the most egregious rumors floating around for years about Harry’s (not William’s) “red mist” anger, all ALLEGEDLY of course:

- that in the UK, H physically assaulted/beat up women to the point of bodily injury…one even allegedly to the point of permanent disability and to whom the BRF gave a massive $$$$ settlement

- that in Afghanistan, during his total 10 weeks of deployment playing video games and being protected by ghurkas (sp?), H again physically assaulted/beat up sex workers to the point of bodily injury, and that the military/BRF covered it up. (Maybe they “didn’t let him do anything” like Madame Soho House does, allegedly?)

- that in the US (both in Vegas and in San Francisco), H yet again physically assaulted/beat up women to the point of bodily injury and that, too, has been covered up.

Just an observation, but if any of this is even remotely true, H suffers from a poisonous Oedipal brew of Mummy love/Mummy hate that even Freud or Jung couldn’t disentangle, much less successfully treat. (First Mummy loved Willy best because he was her soulmate, and he looks like her, and then she had the nerve to die and leave H mummyless, thus making H sexually fantasize about her while applying her favorite Elizabeth Arden cream to his frozen (useless) todger, and then Meg came along smelling like Mummy’s fave perfume, and Meg let lil Harry “do anything he wants,” and then Mummy started speaking to Meg, and then Meg left a positive pregnancy test on the box of Mummy’s hair that sits enshrined next to the conjugal bed…). The alleged pathology boggles the mind.

(I don’t know if you want to post this…it’s raw…and all ALLEGEDLY, but if we’re going to discuss rumors about William’s alleged temper/anger, it’s only fair that the much worse Harry rumors be noted as well.)

************

It’s a bit funny -- I did originally have those Harry rumors in that post. I spent a good 20 minutes letting that write-up sit in my drafts because I was unsure about keeping those rumors in. Ultimately I decided to take them out because I wanted to focus the comparison specifically on the allegations and displays of anger because It’s not actually clear whether the rumors of Harry’s treatment of sex workers are based in anger or if it’s a sadistic fetish. (Apologies for the mental image.)

Honestly, it makes that one engagement with the charity that supports street sex workers (the visit of inspirational banana messaging) incredibly disgusting.

There is a fourth rumor about Harry on this matter - allegedly, when Meghan was in New York for the baby shower, Harry took company with some sex workers that scratched him...in flagrante delicto. Meghan got home, saw the scratches, asked Harry what happened, and he made up the fight with William and the dog bowl and his broken necklace so she wouldn’t find out about the cheating. 

That version is more plausible to me than 38-year-old William and 36-year-old Harry wrestling on the floor in the kitchen over a girl.

St Margaret's Chapel Stained glass windows, Edinburgh Castle today.

The smallest and the oldest surviving building in Edinburgh.

When the Castle was captured by Sir Thomas Randolph in 1314 on behalf of King Robert, it was the only part of the Castle spared destruction.

It contains five stained glass windows by Douglas Strachan, depicting St Margaret, St Andrew, St Columba, St Ninian and William Wallace, these are a modern addition and in my opinion add a lot to the building.

St Margaret's Chapel may not hold any real religious purpose nowadays, but I have been in The Castle when a wedding took place and the piper playing that day was a Ghurka.

En ce 79° anniversaire du Débarquement en Normandie (Opération Overlord pour les anglophones, ou encore D-Day, jour J), prenons une minute pour commémorer le courage des Français, des Anglais, et des Américains (ainsi que le reste des armées alliées du Commonwealth et de l'Empire Britannique d'alors, des Canadiens aux Ghurkas Népalais en passant par les Australiens) qui ont libéré le pays, menés par de Gaulle, par Leclerc, par Lemonnier et par Kieffer, parmi d'autres.

Et comme il s'agit seulement de prendre une minute et non pas de faire une dissertation d'Histoire, quittons-nous sur une chanson qui sera de circonstances tant qu'on parlera de Débarquement en Normandie.

Völkchen

Bei aller Höflichkeit, von den Kolonien bis Pogo, schon ein wildes, rauhes Völkchen sind sie. Was daran zur Brutalität ausschlägt, dem scheint in Westminster diese kleine Straße gewidmet. Hier weht immer Märzwind, hier ist es immer überraschend kalt, auch wenn der Rest des Landes erwartungsgemäß kalt ist. Hier fällt die Temperatur immer ab, und sei es die des Blutes. Hier ist den Monty Pythons nicht der Witz von der Bank eingefallen, die pötzlich lossegelt und deren Angestellte ebenso plötzlich die Enterhaken herausholen und den maßgeschneiderten Anzug gegen die Piratenkluft tauschen. Aber hier hätte ihnen der Witz einfallen können. Das ist die leicht gekrümmte Horse Guards Avenue, hier liegt das Old War Office Building und das Verteidigungsministerium, hier steht die Figur des Ghurka Soldaten und des Duke of Devonshire, alles Leute, mit denen ich mich nicht anlegen würde (auch bei Andrew Cavendish würde ich es mir lieber drei Mal überlegen). Ist die Straße nicht zu kurz und zu schmal für eine Avenue, fehlen nicht die Bäume? Die Pracht oder der Prunk, die eine Avenue auszeichnen sollen, ergeben sich hier aus dem Schauer, den die Straße miterzeugt, so, als ob es eine Nebenwirkung wäre. Die Avenue kommt an, ihr Begriff leitet sich vom Advent ab, hier kommt durchaus etwas Messianisches an, wenn auch nur als jüngstes Gericht. Das ist wohl vor allem der Architektur des ministry of defence geschuldet, aber alles andere an dieser Straße wendet sich auch nicht dagegen, arbeitet und läuft mit der Drohgebärde dieses Gebäudes mit. So ein Gebäude füttert die Fantasien der Zeichner von Gotham City.

Season 1.2

In the labyrinth of threads and fabrics that wove through my week at my Bespoke Tailoring House, the symphony of Petrol Bliss played a backdrop to my days, echoing the most profound lyrics, « never taking victories for granted, when everything went just the way you planned it. Another sartorial journey unfolded, starting with the criminally underrated dance of a green and tan outfit on day one.

My canvas: a moss green and white striped shirt clung to my frame, along side a pair of olive green ghurka trousers with pleats, coupled with a tan cotton double-breasted blazer. My outfit flirted with the cool kid august summer breeze. A pair of tan espadrilles loafers completed rhythm as I danced through the day.

Enter day three, where conservatism met craftsmanship. A navy linen unstructured suit draped my silhouette, accompanied by a navy blue and light brown striped shirt I made some months ago. The stripes have become a newfound fascination. A reel captured the essence of the day. Sharing a sneak peek into next week's content lineup.

Day there also featured a silver e34 as my chariot for my afternoon rounds, helping me weave through Accra’s lighter than usual traffic with the grace of a bespoke creation. The scent of BMW leather and the hum of the straight-six engine serenaded my journey to a client’s airport hills residence, where accents of tan and dark brown enveloped a tastefully assembled abode. A successful meeting ensued with three a commitment for 5 bespoke suits.

Day four began with a rooftop yoga session, meditative reflections, and the creation of a badass blue safari jacket. My Polo workshirt designs flirted with some of my pre-existing boundaries. Im refusing to be boxed in by basic structures. Lunch unfolded in a plant filled courtyard with my latest literary companion and the sound of soft jazz as I looked up at the clouds passing through the afternoon sky.

As day five unfolded, the entire company donned finery for a timeless portrait outside our offices. I wore soft blue Solaro 3 pc suit, a white shirt, and a light brown tie, with brown shoes injecting a dash of flair. Post-shoot, the e34 transported me to a rendezvous with my lady.

In Ada, away from the hustle of Accra, the waterfront became our haven. A deck embraced us with palm trees, a sailboat, and the vast expanse of an open sky. Cheese, wine, and a cigar set the stage for an evening, transitioning to a sunroom with pasta and salmon. The hammock cradled us as a message buzzed—an impeccable execution of our newest bomber jacket.
