Mr. Tims!!! It's an honor! (curtsy) I've heard a lot about you from other half-foots and they said you could help me out. I'm only part half-foot, my father is a dwarf, and it's been only a good few months after I moved out of my dad's house -- but finding entry level work for myself has been really rough... I don't have the strength to go work in the mines, but I also have really clumsy hands so lockpicking isn't an option for me. Really, the only thing I take interest in is magic, but... well I can't say I haven't tried a million times to get good at it, but the mana sickness is seriously bad every time. (fidget fidget) Y'know, I once got knocked out cold for 5 hours straight, and my parents were furious! Told me I couldn't use magic until I learned how to stop pushing myself too hard, haha... Anyways, I was hoping for some advice on what to do? I'm lucky I had enough money to afford a rental, but I'm worried what might happen if I don't pick up a job soon. I don't have a very wide skillset, but I can hold a mace and sew - not without accidentally poking myself though - so I guess that's somethin'... (their voice drops to a mumble) I just wish those changeling mushrooms I got actually worked... I already know how to use magic, I just need... wish I had a better... ugh (cough) Sorry if this is an inconvenience by the way, I can try contacting someone else if you'd like!

You know I heard that, right? Look, Changelings aren’t worth it. The effects are uncontrollable and impermanent. Not to mention they only work in dungeons and not on the surface. I don’t know much about magic other than Dwarfs and Half Foots have a very low tolerance for it, which is not a good combo for you. Unless you can find a way to mitigate mana sickness reliably, I’d shoot for something that isn’t going to hurt you in the long run.
I know surface work isn’t glamorous, but there’s a lot of honest work that needs to be done up there, that I’m sure you’d be very good at. Maybe consider something up top, and study in your free time? Even if you can’t cast anything, you can still learn.

No because wait a bit.
Shio only asks Satsuki to tell people Hibaru and Terasu died, and sure, for people who have them in front of them he isn't going to say that, it's more logical to ask them to kill and act as if they didn't but—
But it's still not Shio who asked for the murders? We don't see him ask for it? It's Satsuki who carries the message – I don't doubt that Shio rather have Hibaru (and Terasu) dead, but it's very much Satsuki who pronounced those exact words.
That doesn't erase the surprise from "but we're brothers"! But it does change the "tell everyone Hibaru and Terasu are no more" to "kill everyone that takes Hibaru's side" and that's not the same thing
It's very oblivious the entire situation is beneficial for Satsuki: he looks like he's pleased with how things turned out, Shio just develops a God complex so he's even more easy to manipulate (if he already wasn't before), and for someone as naturally not charismatic as Satsuki who doesn't look like a fighter and doesn't have an astro giving him a fighting ability, using someone else — someone whom most follow — is the best option. He's the second son, he knows he won't ever be first no matter what in no matter which context, so he takes advantages of it: if he is second, nobody pays attention to him because he's not a direct threat, and if nobody pays attention to him because he's not perceived as a threat then.. he has free rein to manipulate everyone as he pleases. And nobody will ever notice but he'll come out on top.
He's very much more brain than muscles, that's easy to see. I'm just waiting to see how much he manipulates things to place himself in the true position of power and how much Shio knows Satsuki subtlety distorts his words. (Because surely, if he only changes the way it's worded, the way people will understand Shio's intents won't change, right?)
Is it the first time Satsuki subtlety distorts Shio's orders/words in a twisted game of telephone?

Every day since this happened I’ve had to sit quietly in my classics classes and try desperately to not tell my professor about Antigone v Lloyd because that would require explaining too much tumblr culture to this tech-illiterate 40-year-old boomer [affectionate] and he has back-to-back classes all day so there wouldn’t be time. I feel like he would be very entertained, though. Confused, but entertained.
Now THATS what I call a tragedy

How do you feel about fan art for your au? Specifically about parts you haven’t posted art of but have mentioned in asks? (Lowkey really wanna draw the ZITS basement ghosts)
Receiving fanart for silly things I make is literally one of the best parts of posting stuff on here. The rare occasion on which i recieve art for something I made is always the highlight of my week <3

Worst thing about translating a poem is that I am trying to stay as close to the text as possible, but that means the rhythm is off, and if you'd just let me tweak a few things then the rhythm wouldn't be off and wouldn't that be nicer? If the poem's rhythm wasn't off? You know it would be~

Sophie Shepard & Kaidan Alenko (ME1) 1/?
MIRA'S MORE CANON ME1 "After everything that happened with Zaeed, Caleston, and the Villa? I think need to tell you a few things about BAaT." "Well, after everything that happened with Zaeed, Caleston, and the Villa? I think I might owe you an explanation about how I really know Anderson." AKA: Zaeed Massani and the case of the terrible, horrible, no good, very bad message ping. :) Mass Effect: Legendary Edition (2021)
#mira makes gifs ✨#sophie shepard#kaidan alenko#shenko#mass effect#mass effect legendary edition#me#dailygaming#morecanonmasseffect#otp: you’re real enough for me#hi my name is mira and i like taking the most convoluted route to make gifs of my blorbos :)#the devil on my shoulder told me to do an LE1 mesh swap and i should not have listened lmao but IT TURNED OUT CUTE SO IT WAS WORTH IT :)#alright if we’re nailing down canon all of this happens at the villa technically?? so not even on the normandy lmao but we don’t have that#so this is as close as i could get it. and soph pulling up kaidan felt more canon to me in the ✨context✨#so we MESH SWAPPED BABY and now i have the power of kaidan alenko as shep to make AU gifs#LE1 mesh swaps might hurt my soul but eden prime calls my name :)#all of this happens at soph’s favorite spot overlooking the villa which is where they have the baat/anderson conversations :)#the most canon thing from this is the interruption of the kiss which isn’t joker in soph’s canon it’s zaeed lmao#he bypasses the mute on her omni-tool to bug her about coming to grab his shit from the normandy he didn’t grab earlier in the day#the eye roll in that one gif? she is internalizing her rage#her inner thoughts are literally something along the lines of#‘zaeed massani i am literally going to fucking kill you and strip your viper for parts’ in canon lol#i said fuck it to me1 canon and decided they get together early. caleston is the first mission. it just makes sense for them honestly#i could go on a 30 rant tag about just that but i think it’s just like a *when you know* and a trust thing#especially for soph who has issues trusting people and there’s always been a feeling in the back of her head of knowing she can trust him#and in soph!canon i think it goes the same in reverse for kaidan because i think there’s sort of a ‘lone biotic’ stigma around him#and i think they were both drawn to each other because it was easy to see *someone* to trust under the lone biotic and the sole survivor#‘someone’ i use that word a lot in canon :) but i think they’re both trusting of each other early on because they see foils in one another#and i think they both feel on the outside a bit in a way. kindred spirits. which is probably why they fall hard fast :)#i probably ranted too much like i always do because i treat the tags like a TEDtalk but have a good day as always friend! 💙

I think there needs to be an event where a bunch of Naruto Enjoyers make powerpoints on whatever they're unwell about in the series.
- might end in bloodshed but that's thematic thus allowed as long as there's battle music
- throw some people who have either very casually watched naruto or never heard of it into the mix. At the end they can explain what they've gathered the series is about

What kind of work Seodore and their group do in LDL? What does he mean by "Searching for God's Love"?
they investigate supernatural activity and write articles about them!
As for the second half, that's a bit more complicated, and i'll be getting into spoiler territory, so I'll hide it under a cut! DLC spoilers~ I'll be discussing both LDL as a whole and a little bit of Seodore specifically!
LDL wants to change fate. Seodore wants to rewrite things, and the chance to rewrite things and grant a wish is what he offers to Sanemitsu in 1999. If they find a way to reach God's Love, then they can change things.
Each character has something different that they want from working with LDL.
Sanemitsu wants to pick everything up that he's lost (an impossible dream-- if he succeeds in changing the past, he loses reiji)
Zweig wants to kill a certain man
Annie wants to find who almost killed her
Seo is... more complicated but I'll talk a little on him
my personal reading is a metafiction angle (ie when they describe rewriting God's Love, they talk about rewriting the code of the game itself). I'll finish the post on this point at some point i swear <3
I want to draw attention to this quote from record 8:
Seodore: I wanted to believe that people's potential was limitless. I still believe it should be so. But if "God's love" prevents it from above, there is no other way but to rewrite it from there.
He wants people to have the freedom to make their own decisions, away from what fate and the world has predetermined for them. Like he tells Hajime in record 5, they aren't playthings. In order to do that, he needs to go to a 'higher power' than he currently has access to: the code of the world itself.
In the last section of the DLC, Seodore also discusses how he's guided us towards the path where the world can continue to exist. Only in S+ does the world continue to exist beyond 2015. Seo wants this world to continue and progress.
lines referenced are from records 4, 5, 8, and the last scene of the DLC!
