Thank god for Reddit users who conveniently have asked basically every question I have ever needed google for and has, as a result, made the solutions to whatever problem I have easily accessible

I know we always imagine watchers a big old scary looming creatures. They quite literally watch you and the best view is from the top amirite?

Then there’s grain.

Who stands at a wonderful 5’6 feet.

So here we have like idk I’d like to think 7-8 something feet tall creatures looking at lil gremlin grian and thinking yes we want that.

And grian in his watched form just trailing behind them.

(Bonus hc is the idea grian flies everywhere cuz while the watchers do have wings they mainly use it to perch on high places but otherwise walk quite a lot. Grian flies everywhere though just to stay on good ol’ eye level with them Yk.)

if more people knew Herstory (aka 2004 season and sete&vale) so many questions wrt 2015 season(mostly “why would vale….”) would immediately be answered addfghjk like guysssss guyssssss

it is kinda funny that there's a simple cheat code out there to understanding most of valentino's career but it's just about long enough ago that most people simply... ignore it. like there's a three year span that more or less tells you what you need to know about him. it's like you say! pretty much every possible "why would vale..." secretly has a straightforward answer, and 9/10 it's something that was established in 2003 to 2005. simple as

if anything it's almost annoying because it's too easy. the 2004/2015 stuff in particular is incredibly funny. oh, so you say you have a controversial last lap at assen where valentino beat a rival in direct combat and said rival reacted surprisingly poorly, making valentino reevaluate his relationship with the rival? might that tell you something about how a seed of suspicion once sown can remain dormant for months until valentino is given cause to revisit it? valentino quite literally says in his biography that he could never have hated biaggi because he wasn't a friend and didn't have the power to hurt him... the sepang pressers thing is genuinely just silly, I know this is mainly a function of when they happen in the calendar but what a bizarre coincidence. 2015 is like a slightly more opaque funhouse mirror version of 2004 - but so many of the major beats are virtually identical. which means you've got a season Out There where a younger less experienced less guarded less cynical valentino basically walks you through his internal processes so you get a really good handle of what his deal is. he's piecing together his identity as a competitor going forwards in real time - and then in 2015 he just reminds you of what exactly that identity involves. it's a reaffirmation and not a departure... he's not that inscrutable after all, in the end

Jere and Bojan most likely are having their weekly calls in the evening when both them are free and can unwind. Maybe sometimes Jere and Bojan are their last conversation before they fall asleep 🌠

Yes 🥹 And do you know what happens when one of them falls asleep before the other? They always whisper the things they’re too afraid to say out loud when the other is awake to hear them.

I wish things were different. I wish we didn’t have this stupid fucking continent between us. I wish you were here in my arms. Did you know that sometimes I sleep in your shirt? You know which one. I wish I could stay there, always. I wish you could stay here, always. I wish I could call you mine. I wish I was brave enough to tell you, but it would hurt too much when I have to leave again. I love you. Mä rakastan sua. Ljubim te. Forever.

But what they don’t know is that often the other isn’t actually asleep, but he’s listening to every word, silent tears trailing down his cheeks, thinking

I wish that too. I want that too. I wish I was brave enough too, but it would hurt too much. I love you too. Mäkin rakastan sua. Tudi jaz te ljubim. Forever.

hi im also a raymond shields lover [you know this its no surprise] and i am also SOOO autistic about music so i totally ripped apart his theme to analyze it and i wanna hear YOUR THOUGHTS PLEAAAASEEE I NEED SOMEONE TO BE INSANE WITH

HELL YEAH an excuse to geek out about Joking Motive? You better believe I'm taking it

Ok so right off the bat—THE FIRST FOUR NOTES. The first SEVEN notes, even—you can hear Miles’ Great Revival motif, plain as day. Close listeners will recognize that this iconic ascending minor third and whole step pattern can be heard all over the Investigations soundtrack, everywhere from the cross-examination and objection themes to the character themes—including but not limited to Kay, Lang, and in this case, Ray (there’s even an inverted version in Gregory’s theme that uses a descending half step and major third instead!). What’s really interesting is the use of this motif sort of contradicts Ray’s attitude toward Miles when we first hear the track—it’s played during his initial introduction when he still has that grudge towards him. It’s not NECESSARILY out of place considering even Quercus Alba’s theme uses the motif, but it’s a pretty strong musical foreshadowing that he could potentially be swayed over to Miles’ side, which is indeed followed through on later.

As for the main body of the track itself, it’s pretty distinctly blues-y, making gratuitous use of standard blues chord progressions (Am7 -> D7 and whatnot) and pentatonic melodies ornamented by that sweet sweet flat 5 that I have now dubbed “the Ray Note” because the man has melted my brain (what else is new). One thing worth noting that’s a bit atypical of the genre, however, is the Fmaj7 chord used a couple of times throughout (in Roman numeral notation it would be the VI chord); the first instance of it is about 44 seconds into the linked video for reference. This, in my opinion, is a really clever way of hiding emotional nuance underneath the otherwise upbeat instrumentation and playful melody—the VI chord sounds a bit more melancholic in comparison to everything surrounding it and hints that despite his jokester persona, Ray might not actually be as cheerful as he seems.

And now my favorite part—the synesthesia of it all. Idk if you’ve read my pinned post or not but basically the key of a song has certain colors, moods, scenery, etc. associated with it in my brain and it’s been a part of my life since even before I had any sort of musical training. Joking Motive is in A minor—which is represented by the color gray and its associated moods are those of emptiness and yearning (it’s a functional opposite to E flat minor which is pitch black and represents the crushing weight of despair). And I mean. Considering Ray’s whole character revolves around the void left in his life after Gregory’s death and how he desperately tries to fill it by doing everything he can to bring Miles back to his side? I’d say the key choice fits pretty well. If Capcom REALLY wanted to steal my heart away and make me even MORE smitten than I already am they could have put it just a half step higher in B flat minor (my favorite key of all time. Beautiful midnight blue queen I love her so much) but their key choice reflects him too perfectly so I’m willing to overlook it.

And that’s about it, really! I hope you enjoyed reading my insights—Joking Motive is one of my favorite tracks so I'm glad we can be autistic about it together <3

Anyone else have thoughts about the genshin Natlan sneak peeks? Boy why am I not shocked that the archon [rumored] is pale asf and dressed like a conquistador and the npcs are ofc shocker brown while the good guys are pale asf…

[sommerregenjuniluft]

can you please explain your evan as capricorn? because he was always so hard for me to label in terms of zodiac, and honestly a capricorn fits really well in my mind since he and reg both seem to have that stubborn, independent, cold demeanor, but they are also very diff to me?

they are different! their big 6 or generally their entire chart would probably be wildly different but in their sun sign, their inner ego, i think they are very similar so it fits well imo

[butchboromir]

losing my mind waiting for a text back and obvs they aren't obligated to respond asap but i want to plan this date :(

Okay uh where the hell to start…

So to preface I’m not diagnosed with anything but cptsd and anxiety/depression I don’t have access to any resources where I can see a specialist and I don’t know what the fuck is wrong with me but I’ve been like this since I was a kid.

So this blog is one of like a catalog of my experiences so when I do have access to a specialist I can have somewhere to start.

Anyway uh I honestly didn’t realize how odd this is until my fiancé pointed out that this probably isn’t normal but whatever.

So I have like a shit ton of people in my head and they talk to me and they’re like sort of fully formed people. Sometimes they’ll just talk to me but I’m starting to suspect they’ll often take control of my body and I’ll get these weird greyed out blanks in my memory or I’m like aware but heavily dissociative. It’s whatever I’m honestly not terribly worried about it since like I said it’s been that way since I was a kid. It’s mostly just inconvenient.

Here I’m just going to record snippets of conversations I’ve had and interactions I guess. Uh I’ll update this post with “character sheets I guess.

Harlow- young, late teens, very sweet but kind of pushy. Blonde she/her

Tobias- early 20’s, black hair, likes to argue, bad nicotine addiction, will flirt with my boyfriend if given a chance he/him

Kat- 20, blond, really fucking mean to me for no reason, will not let me into the fucking house he/him

A- old like mid 30’s (that’s not that old brat), dark hair, won’t let me do fun (dangerous) things, also will not let me into the fucking house he/him

Cain- me lol (not my real name), I’m 20, he/they
