#i lowkey don't trust yangyang

[falling-star-cygnus]

i'm here once again to convince you to consume new media :D

❗WUTHERING WAVES SPOILERS❗

-> right off the bat, stunning visuals. i lowkey love the way the token 'symbol' of the game resembles stars AND soundwaves in a way that remains prevalent

unfortunately, while it IS beautiful, it does make the gameplay a little janky. not to the point where it's hard to run, but it does feel a little like playing on slow wi-fi.

-> the worldbuilding is really cool, important figures in their cities aren't just like- a one and done sort of thing even if they aren't explicitly touched on anymore

-> MC CHARACTER DESIGNS?? amazing. i really only chose the male Rover because I couldn't tell if those were ribbons or his actual hair {i still have no idea} -> plus- the sheathing animation?? the cloud and moon? beautiful

my favorite part of any media will always be how different the characters are -> I love Chixia's baby face and her freckles, Sanhua's mismatching pupils and her mole -> YANGYANG'S FEATHER SHAPED HAIR THAT GLOWS

-> the mechanics are also incredible, modern in a sense but also like- extremely fantastical? they're a lot more complex then other open world exploration games guns replace archers, but you can also throw around a giant bird.. thing

it kind reminds of a mix of TOTK mechanics and genshin, but in it's own unique amalgamation of the two. also you can turn into creatures and repel through the air like Spider-Man

-> in all honesty, i think it's trying to take itself maybe just a bit too seriously? the storyline is rich and captivating so far but it lacks a sort of silliness and whimsy

which i understand, Wuthering Waves is trying to be it's own thing in a game where companies like Hoyoverse and Nintendo have dominated the field not to mention, the diehard fans of Hoyoverse games are rabid. if anything bares even a smidge of resemblance to genshin or hsr, it gets torn to pieces almost immediately -> it's not all fans, nor am i implying as such, but it IS a loud majority.

as always lmk if there are any other things you want me to give my thoughts on, i always love getting requests and interacting with you all >W<

[what-if-nct]

helloooo today's reminder is that 1. Han is right we shouldn't trust the robots and 2. true to my word i did listen to superm and I really do like the second album but I also listened to resonance and dear god. that album is a masterpiece. it contains the entire spectrum of human emotion without one single mediocre/bad song (in this house we do not tolerate work it slander). also really made me miss sungtaro :( i wonder how they'll sub for the new nct concert but no one's coming close to the iconic 90s love verse. i hope riize treats them better. tho I heard there's a very rich nepo baby on that team so hopefully that should mean steady employment. but yeah it did lowkey break my heart to listen to their voices on songs and really like them and then realise I'm not going to hear them on any more nct stuff :(

Hiii! We shouldn't trust robots why are people trying to invent them find something else to invent do they not watch scifi, the proof is right there. Artificial intelligence is not the move, go back. There's more important things to create.

Resonance is so good. And work it was a masterpiece and I'm not just saying that cause it was all biases in one group get back to me in a year for how feel about Jisung I'm very conflicted and can't articulate it well but....he's on the cusp of where Renjun and Yangyang are which, I'll get to that later. But I miss Taro and Sungchan so much, they came served and left, what sm did was so cruel and unfair but at least they have a stable home now but believe me they're gonna somehow end up in NCT and NCT Japan is just gonna disappear and never happen.

Also the recent teasers more proof the order was just drawn out of a hat. But Yangyang and Renjun are definitely my favorites. Renjun's reminds me of a 2000s dark indie teen movie that aerial shot was breathtaking, Renjun perfectly performed that melancholy hopeless feeling an the scenery. Yangyang's was kind of like the otherside of town version of Renjun's where it's a little more rough and grungy and still l like a indie teen movie but less melancholy and more aggressive and angsty. Like I loved theirs so much. Jaehyun and Tens were cool too. But there's a specific aesthetic and vibe I really love that they've had and the only way I can explain it is skylines and turnstiles, I know thats an MCR song. But it best conveys what I'm trying to say. The song actually sounds similar to Yang & Yuta's teaser instrumentals. Yutas teaser also falls into this. Wait I have an idea.

This worked out exactly as I hoped. Yang,Yuta and Renjun's are definitely my favorites so far. I actually don't super love cutesy or romantic concepts. The more grungy industrial twilight hour stuff appeals to me more.

Ranking NCT ot23 from who I would win against in a fight to who would beat me

Disclaimer: I would never ever fight any of them in real life, this is all hypothetical. I hope that none of them ever get in a serious fight like this either, I love them all very much and with all of my heart. I do not condone fighting or violence, so please don’t take this seriously. Again, this is just hypothetical and I do not wish them any harm in any way. 

Who I would probably beat

Taeil 

Jungwoo 

Shotaro 

Ten 

Jisung 

Taeyong 

Xioajun 

Mark 

Hendery 

Yangyang 

Jaemin 

Lucas 

Sicheng 

Sungchan 

Chenle 

Jeno 

Renjun 

Haechan 

Yuta 

Jaehyun

Doyoung 

Kun 

Johnny

Would beat me

Explanations:

Taeil: He is baby despite being the oldest and it's just, I just can't see him winning tbh. Like I love him very much, but I would win in a fight against him.

Jungwoo: Here we have baby #2 and just, yes he is tall, but I just don't feel like he can fight. He can probably slap me, but then he'd feel bad about it, so he'd just forfeit.

Shotaro: He is just so cute and cuddly, and I just can't see him being able to fight but I have seen him pre-debut so I think he's more capable to fight than Taeil and Jungwoo

Ten: The man is scared of fruit, so if I held a strawberry in front of him, I'd win. I also just think that although yes, he is very agile, he just doesn't seem like a fighting type of dude.

Jisung: I love him so much but he wouldn't win. I feel like he would probably go to the wall and shy away from me instead of wanting to fight me, but I think that he would be able to punch me once.

Taeyong: Okay, so this is where we start to get to the members that can actually fight and wouldn't loose simply because they can't fight in general. I feel like Taeyong would fight somebody and last a good while, but he'd only fight if he absolutely had to.

Xioajun: Xioajun is buff and he also has his moments where I can just tell he wants to tackle his members sometimes. So I feel like he'd be able to last a good while before we both end up in a tie or one of us gets tired and just forfeits.

Mark: Now, Mark Minhyung Lee, is my ultimate bias, my world, my everything, my chicken nugget. And I'm so sorry for this, but I do feel like I have a chance of winning if I put my love for him aside. I've also seen him punch a watermelon open so there's also that.

Hendery: Hendery is chaotic so that's gonna be one hell of a fight. Like, I can imagine him just being very chaotic which would confuse me and then I'd lose. So his chaotic-ness is his weapon in a fight.

Yangyang: I lowkey feel like a part of Yangyang is just ready. I feel like there's another side to him that is just ready to fight at any given time if he is allowed to fight.

Jaemin: One word: COFFEE. With the amount of caffeine this man consumes, it 1) concerns me 2) scares me. And also how he likes to drink his coffee is also scary. So I feel like just from those things alone, he would win.

Lucas: I saw that one Instagram story he posted of him at boxing and like, he could knock me out. I would say thank you and lose. So that's why he would beat me.

Sicheng: Although he is very soft baby, I feel like he could probably put up a really good fight tbh so yeah. I also feel like he has some pent up anger and frustrations that he needs to let out, and he would let it out in this fight.

Sungchan: First of all, the boy is tall, and I am short. So he already wins with that. And I just feel like he would be good at fighting for some reason, like, I can feel it in my gut. And the only thing I trust my life with, besides Mark Lee, is my gut.

Chenle: Okay, listen up, this is the PRESIDENT we are talking about. So in a fight, if he hasn't already beat me from actually fighting, he'd beat me by throwing money at me.

Jeno: We've all seen Jeno's arms so I know for a fact that he can put up a fight and he would. I also know for a fact that he would win in that fight against me and I'd also faint immediately because holy cow, Lee Jeno is standing in front me so sjljkdjsksjw 

Renjun: I just know he would win. I mean, he has to physically hold himself back from fighting Hyuk half of the time so I think that speaks for itself. And in this case, it is okay for him to let go, and although he is smol, he is filled with unbridled rage.

Haechan: I mean, it's Haechan. He would win just for being Haechan. But I do think that he'd tease me to my loss. And I would probably leave with a hurt pride and a bruised soul after a fight with him.

Yuta: The man is scary when he chooses to be. Like, I've seen him when he has a poker face on, and the look in his eyes is a warning in itself. So just from that, I just know that in a fight, he would absolutely beat me.

Jaehyun: The 4-5 years in America did something to him because I just know that this man can fight. Like, I just know he would win and that he would look good winning (he looks good all the time what am I talking about)

Doyoung: He is somebody that I just don't want to mess with and that is what will give him an advantage. I also just feel like he has a lot of feelings pent up from his members teasing him all the time so that would also help him a lot.

Kun: Listen, he can fly a plane, fry a perfect fried egg, tune a violin, and is the leader of WayV. That last fact already says it all tbh. Like, I applaud him for it because I know he is the only one who can handle that.

Johnny: No, just, no. I do not want to fight Johnny, if I was ever put in a position where I'd have to, I would get on my knees and beg for mercy because that man is strong. Like, he can carry 2-3 of his members at the same time and also beat everyone he went up against in arm wrestling so just no.
