ufo 50 and dark souls part 3:
much like with gta or call of duty, everyone was trying to make a souls game, or just shoving aspects where they didn't belong. as far as indie games go, i'll use shovel knight as an example. it's a fine game, i like sk. but when you die, you lose gold and have to go back to where you died and pick it back up, or risk losing it forever. it was so unnecessary, and added stress and anxiety for no reason. yet there it was. it never woulda been there without souls, and woulda made for a better game overall. not a huge deal, but then you have games like hollow knight which is an amazing game but def starts to get tedious to unplayable later. or blasphemous which is just AWFUL from the start.
and of course, there's all those reprehensible pos soulslikes that bigger companies tried to make without understanding that the only reason souls got away with so much of it's bullshit is it had insanely good art, lore, and aesthetics. but that aside, you also had souls elements seeping into other big series. like take zelda botw. there's zero doubt in my mind that souls wasn't a huge inspiration, anyone trying to argue otherwise would be a fool. the last decade or so of the series was very lenient with it's challenge, but suddenly in botw things will kill you left and right. i'm not trying to say botw or totk are as hard as souls, but the influence is obviously there. and it makes for a worse game. the whole "weapons break easily" system is dumb. the whole thing they do with food is maybe even worse, semi unlimited healing means the devs can't balance the combat properly, and it was a shitty bandaid solution for an unnecessary problem.
this is what i'm saying. dark souls has really really hurt the whole gaming landscape, to an intensity that i've never seen before. and the good souls elements are usually ignored in favor of "make game hard, profit". and while i don't think ufo 50 will ever be as influential as souls? it's making huge waves in the indie scene. it's gonna change the indie landscape for sure. but idk if it'll be for the right reasons. are people months from now gonna be talking about moon cat or porgy or pilot quest? or are they just gonna be doing speedruns of barbuta?? in my head, all the fun games will probably be old news, and what's gonna be left is all the brutal stuff. all those artificially and needlessly hard games.
and it makes me wary. i really like ufo 50, i'm fine with half the games being bad, and talk to my friends about how cool the game is. but is it gonna negatively affect my hobby in the future? idk. like, i was the biggest demons souls fan you'd ever meet back then. but now i feel stupid. now i feel like i should have called the game out for it's shit and not just focused on the good parts. elden ring was a great example of a half "top 20 of all time", half awful. but then they made the followup dogshit overhard dlc and ruined the name, and it's like "oh god, there's another 10 years of shitty games if this does well".
i think people like to pretend that everything is in this sort of bubble. but i can safely say as somebody who has been playing games for 40 years that, no, these kinds of things can have an overwhelming effect on the hobby.

CW: mentions of death, medical issues, etc.
Been contemplating my own mortality lately after I had my seizure
Even with my medication and being careful to eat and sleep and not stress out too much I'm absolutely terrified that I'll have another and no one will be there this time
And I'll hit my head on something hard
And it'll all be over and it won't have been worth anything
I haven't accomplished anything and I've been miserable my whole life and I cling so tightly onto what I have that I push it away and what is any of it for
If I die because of a seizure I don't want to have regrets but how can I not? I'm 19 and in college and working my ass off to survive and I don't want to die anymore I just want to live somewhere quietly with someone I love and it hit me earlier today
That if my boyfriend hadn't been there with me when I had it, no one would have found me if I had died
Not until someone started asking around about me and made an RA open the door
And I don't want to die alone and forgotten
And I don't want to die in public
I'm so afraid that one of these days I'll wake up and it'll be the last day I have and I won't know and I'll do something stupid and then I'll die and hate myself for it
And I'm afraid that I'll die and leave my boyfriend alone
And as selfish as it is I don't want him to move on if that happens
I don't want to be forgotten
I can't sleep which makes it worse and I got sent home from work early for half assing it because I needed to cry so much and I'm afraid of losing my job and not being able to get another and I'm so scared
I feel like I should be getting my things in order in case I die but I feel stupid doing so because what if nothing happens what if I'm fine for like 50 more years
And I ruin the now because I'm so busy preparing for something that might not happen
I just wanna go home and be a kid again and not have to worry about money or school or stupid seizures

Oooooh lizzington prompts! Shameless anon is here 😂 Hmmmm well.. I WANT ALL OF THEM, but I'll settle for these -for now- told you I'm shameless: 10, 24 (I'd die if Red was the one trembling), 31, 41. My feels are yours to mess up with 😭❤️
50 Dialogue Prompts
Oh my gosh, HELLO shameless anon! :D So happy to have you back in my inbox bringing me prompts! :) Okay so, I’m sorry these took so long, but here they are, all 4 at once. (Which is why they took a while. And also because, at every turn, I was fighting my instinct to turn each prompt into a full-length fic. Darn.) So I hope your feels come out of these mostly intact ;) Please enjoy! :D Much love!
10. “Come here.”
24. “You’re trembling.” (Red is, indeed, the one trembling. And also, this is sort of a companion mini-fic to number 10.)
31. “I can’t keep kissing strangers and pretending that they’re you.” (This one goes into T rating territory, be advised, and enjoy ;)
41. “I feel like I can’t breathe.”
10. “Come here.”
Red sighs as he collapses on thesofa, kicking off his Italian hand-made shoes like they are cheap sneakers andrubbing his face with both hands.
What an exhausting day.
Lizzie had called around nine,saying they were dead in the water with their current blacklister, and askedfor his help. Unable to deny her, and also wanting to have the truly despicablenumber 45 in custody as soon as possible, he had wracked his brains for ways tohelp. Unfortunately, the only thing he could come up with was chatting with oneof his less pleasant associates. De Marco was the only one Red could imaginewould have any intel on this blacklister. Whether he would share it with him wasanother story completely.
De Marco is an interestingindividual, a recluse, a hermit, living by himself in the wilderness of NewJersey, so naturally he is a little unhinged. He can be perfectly pleasant, ofcourse, but if caught on the wrong day, Red knows from experience that he willemerge from his cabin on a rampage, guns blazing. It is nothing Red can’thandle with Dembe by his side, of course, but he doesn’t want Lizzie anywherenear someone so unpredictable, just in case.
So Red had relayed his plans toLizzie, for once not holding back anything, wanting her to know the probable dangerof this contact. He made a point to stress that she, or anyone else from thetask force, should not try to follow him under any circumstances. De Marco istoo volatile and they should wait for Red to contact them with anything helearned.
She had agreed reluctantly, in arather odd tone of voice, but Red had had no time to linger on it. Besides, Lizzie’smood had been anything but consistent lately.
So he and Dembe had set off at onceto northern New Jersey to pay a visit to old De Marco. He was rather uncooperativeat first – perhaps Red should have called ahead – but after a few knives were thrownhis way, Red managed to calm him down and obtain the information the task forceneeded.
On the long drive home, Red hadcalled Cooper with the time sensitive intel, wary of Lizzie’s strange mood and wantingto spare her the usual role of middleman this once.
They just arrived back at theircurrent safe house and Dembe went straight to bed. A day full of driving and dodgingbullets from a paranoid maniac tends to take a toll. Red can certainly sympathize.
With a weary glance at his watch,Red sees that it is nearing midnight. He supposes he should head to bed aswell, exhausted as he is, but he still feels that strange restlessness thatcomes from being confined in a car for a long period of time.
Perhaps he’ll make some warm milk,that usually makes him sleepy, and it’s certainly better for him than scotch,yes, perhaps he’ll –
Knock, knock.
Red frowns. Who could that possiblybe at quarter to twelve on a Tuesday night? Suddenly wide awake and on alert,he grabs his gun from it lies discarded on the side table and clicks off thesafety, padding silently to the door. He takes a quick glance through thepeephole and feels a jolt go through him.
Lizzie is standing there.
He quickly flicks the safety backon the gun and places it on the entryway table, unlocking and opening the doorat the same time.
“Lizzie, what a pleasant – “
“Where have you been?!”
And before he knows it, Lizzie ispushing her way past him and into his safe house and what is going on?
“I’m sorry?”
“Oh, don’t play stupid, Red. Youcall and tell me all about this dangerous god-awful blacklister and thencasually go on your merry way to meet with him and then you don’t even call meafterwards? You call Cooper instead? What was I supposed to take from that? Thatyou were injured and didn’t want to worry me? Or that you simply didn’t careenough to let me know you were okay?”
Lizzie finally stops to take abreath but Red can do nothing but blink stupidly at her, stunned. He had noidea she would be so worried about him. Frankly, he didn’t think she would caremuch at all. She had made it very clear in the past that she cares very little forhis safety. Why should this time be different? There are not many people leftin this world that care about his well-being and she has the least reason ofanyone. He certainly can’t blame her.
Red frowns.
He can see tension making Lizzie’sshoulders rigid. Her arms, which had been planted on her hips while she wasyelling at him, have since drifted to wrap around her waist. He glances up ather face, still frowning, and he sees she is staring at him, waiting to hear whathe has to say for himself.
Well.
“Lizzie…” he says slowly. “I’m perfectlyall right. I’m sorry if I worried you. That was not my intention.”
She must be able to hear thesincerity in his voice but instead of relaxing like he suspected she would, hesees her arms tighten around her middle and, unbelievably, he sees her eyesfill with tears.
Perhaps he had overexaggerated DeMarco’s eccentricities.
And perhaps Lizzie cares more abouthim than he originally suspected.
He feels a wonderful warmth floodhim from head to toes.
“Well,” she mutters, lookingstrangely vulnerable and small, standing here in his hallway, looking anywhere butat him. “I was still worried.”
Oh, Lizzie.
“Come here.” He murmurs, reachingfor her.
And, unbelievably, she surgesforward into his arms without hesitation, one arm wrapping around his back andthe other around his waist, her face pressing into his shoulder. He wraps hisarms tightly around her in return, wishing irrationally for a moment that he couldabsorb her into his body and keep her with him always.
Silly.
He feels her take a deep breath in,her torso expanding within his arms, and he breaths with her almost byaccident. As they exhale together, Red feels a lovely contentedness settlewithin him. He makes a silent promise to do his best not to worry her again.
24. “You’re trembling.” (Red)
Liz sighs as she closes herapartment door, shedding her shoes carelessly in the hall and dumping her coatand bag on the table, feet aching.
What an exhausting day.
It had started early with asighting of their blacklister and ended so very late, after endless paperworkand formalities. At least their blacklister was finally in custody.
If only it hadn’t taken a buildingblowing up to finally catch him.
Liz had been the first to go in,Ressler and Samar not far behind her, when she caught sight of their suspect.She took off after him without a thought, heedless of their cries to wait.
She didn’t realize he was going toprime a bomb.
But luckily, number 67 doesn’t havea suicidal streak. After he rigged the building to blow, Liz chased him rightout the back door of the building and finally took him down as the explosionknocked them both off their feet. Aside from a few cuts and scrapes, Liz isperfectly fine, but that didn’t stop Cooper from giving her a long lecture onthe advantages of teamwork.
Liz sighs again, leaning againsther apartment door, sore and wondering idly if she’ll make it to her bed or ifshe should just settle for the couch and does it really matter anyway becausehow –
Knock, knock.
Liz jumps away from the door,startled. Who could that be?
“Lizzie, open the door, it’s me.”
Red. There’s an odd tightness andurgency to his voice that Liz can’t identify.
She frowns and quickly opens thedoor. She doesn’t even get a good look at Red before he is rushing through thedoor, kicking it closed behind him, and gripping her by the shoulders.
“Lizzie, are you alright?” he asksurgently.
Liz blinks, confused. “Um, yeah,I’m fine, Red. Are you?”
Bewildered, Liz watches as Red’sface contorts in anger.
“Are you really going to ask methat, Lizzie? After you were in an explosion today? Why did you go after thatblacklister? How could you be so stupid, so reckless, we would have gotten himsome other way, you shouldn’t risk your life like that, you could have beenkilled! And you didn’t think to call me at any point today? After I heard thenews, I had to call Aram, of all people, to find out if you were alive – ”
Red’s anger seems to evaporatequickly, draining from his face as he looks at her, his eyes flickeringanxiously over her face.
“Red, I’m sorry.” Liz sayshonestly. “It was a crazy day, I didn’t really have time for phone calls. But Ididn’t mean to worry you.”
Liz looks into his eyes, meetinghis gaze for a moment before she sees his eyes flicker down to her cheek,zeroing in on the scrape there she sustained from a random piece of shrapnel inthe explosion.
Liz watches as Red raises his hand,as if in a trance, to brush his fingers gently across the superficial wound.She looks at his hand, so close to her now, and is shocked to see his fingersunsteady.
“You’re trembling.” she whispers.
Oh Red.
They move at the same time, Red’strembling hand delving into her hair and the other yanking at her waist to pullher to him, while Liz’s arms wrap around Red’s neck. Liz scratches lightly atthe back of his head and she feels his shiver against her whole body. Shenotices that the trembles are not confined to his hands, in fact, they seem tobe quaking through his whole body. He buries his face in her neck and sheshushes him, rocking them a little back and forth.
Oh, Red. He thought she had died.
“I’m all right, Red, I’m righthere.” She murmurs to him, cradling him. He takes a deep breath in at her wordsand lets it out slowly, the tremors gradually fading. Standing there holdinghim, Liz makes a silent promise to do her best not to worry him again.
31. “I can’t keep kissing strangers and pretendingthat they’re you.”
Red sulks in his booth, cringing ashe watches Lizzie press up against her partner, dancing in the darkness of theclub. He knows it’s necessary for Lizzie to appear occupied with her date whilethey wait for their mark to appear but that doesn’t mean he has to like it. Hesips sullenly at his scotch, wishing he could simply throw it back and orderten more like he wants to.
They have been staking out thisparticular club all week, undercover as simple clubbing patrons, waiting fortheir mark to appear. But it’s Friday and he still hasn’t showed. Red knowsthat if they don’t see him here tonight, Cooper will pull the plug on the wholeoperation. But at least Red and Liz aren’t wearing microphones anymore,connected to the team outside in a surveillance van like they were earlier thisweek. They gave up that part of the operation after Red convinced Cooper that thepresence of the van was putting off their mark.
That wasn’t true at all, of course,their mark was far too stupid to notice the team. But Red didn’t want to riskembarrassing Liz any more than he already has. Because on their first nightundercover, Red and Liz had decided to portray a couple enjoying a night outand things had gotten a little…out of hand.
The tension that always seemed to besimmering below the surface of their interactions had finally snapped under thedarkness and heat of the club. They were dancing fairly chastely when Liz hadfinally leaned in close to his ear and whispered to him.
“We have to sell this.”
Red’s heart had just about stoppedin his chest when Liz had turned around and started to grind against him. Redhad a split second of inaction before he was kicked into gear by the feel of Lizdancing so provocatively against him. He simply couldn’t stop his handsgripping her hips and pulling her firmly back against him, enjoying the frictionfar more than he probably should.
They danced like this for whatseemed to Red to be a glorious 30 minutes before, without warning, Liz spunaround and crushed her lips to Red’s with a moan. Red, after being stunned foranother short moment, didn’t waste any time in pulling her tightly against him,his mouth working furiously against hers, their tongues tangling.
When they finally surfaced for air,their eyes met and, while taking in dilated pupils and flushed cheeks, they suddenlyremembered the mics and earpieces currently trapped between their warm bodies. Theyheard Ressler clear his throat and call off the operation for the night.
After a wide eyed, searching gazeover his face, Liz had slipped away from Red and disappeared in the crowd. Theywent their separate ways and they haven’t acknowledged the incident since.
So Red insisted on no more micswhile they were undercover. As it turns out, it wasn’t necessary, as Lizzie hadsteadfastly avoided him as much as she could while they were both stuck in thesame club for six hours every night. She had no shortage of partners and Red,while plenty of women sent interested glances his way, sat in his boothdrinking scotch.
And trying to forget the feeling ofLizzie moaning into his mouth.
He sighs. A futile business, to besure.
Red checks his watch. Almostmidnight. He casts a final glance around the room for their mark and, seeinghim nowhere, decides to throw in the towel. He tosses back the last of hisscotch and stands. Lizzie looks to be having a fine time with her currentpartner and he’s sure she can find her own way home. Bitterness rises in histhroat like acid and he starts to push his way through the crowd to the door.
However, he doesn’t get far beforea hand grabs arm and he turns, startled, to see Lizzie tugging him to the backof the club.
“Lizzie – “ he starts to say butshe continues to pull him along until they are in the relative quiet of the backhallway.
Alone.
“Lizzie, what – “
“Look, I’m sorry about earlier thisweek,” she interrupts him easily and, oh, she’s apologizing and telling himwhat a mistake it was, of course, he never had a chance with her –
“But I can’t stand this awkwarddance anymore so let me just be honest.”
Yes, they should just address itlike adults and move on and if Red’s heart comes out of this broken beyondrepair, who really cares –
“I can’t keep kissing strangers and pretending thatthey’re you.”
What?
Red just stares at her for a minute, her smoky eyesblinking alluringly at him, her lips looking wonderfully tempting with a lightcoat of deep red lipstick.
She wants to kiss him again?
“So how about you take me home and we do somethingabout that?”
Red grins at her. Oh, hell yes.
41. “I feel like I can’t breathe.”
Ring, ring.
Liz taps her finger anxiously against her phone as itrings, waiting for Red to pick up. It’s very late at night, almost earlyreally, but she can’t help it.
She needs to talk to him.
She can’t sleep and she can’t seem to do anythingabout it but Red will help her. He always does.
Sam’s birthday is coming up and it’s the first one sincehe’s been gone and Tom is gone too (which is definitely for the better) butshe’s still having a hard time. Red saw her yesterday at the Post Office,looking exhausted and sad and somehow knowing why, and told her to not hesitateto call him.
So, at two o’clock in the morning, that’s what she’s doing.
“Hello?”
“Red,” she breathes, relieved, closing her eyes.
“Lizzie? It’s very late, is something wrong?” Oh, Red.
“No, no, I’m sorry, I hope I didn’t wake you.” Forsome reason, it didn’t occur to her that Red might be sleeping.
“No, you didn’t wake me, Lizzie, but you should beasleep.”
“I know, it’s just…” Now that she has him on the phone,what does she say to him?
“Yes?” Patient Red. What has she done to deserve him?
“I can’t sleep. It’s…it’s Sam. And…you said I couldcall?” She feels so tentative now, what if he didn’t really mean it, what if hewas just saying it, what if –
“Of course, Lizzie, of course. I’m so glad youcalled.” Oh, Red. She can hear the sincerity in his voice. Of course he meantit, this is Red.
“Thank you, Red. I just…Well his birthday is coming upand I’m sure I don’t need to tell you that but it’s the first since he’s beengone and, though I know it shouldn’t mean anything, Tom isn’t here to help methrough it and as disgusting as he was, he was the only thing I had and I justdon’t know what to do,” and it’s all spilling out of her now, all the feelingsand thoughts that had been building up inside her ever since she realized Samwould have been fifty in a week’s time. “…And the all the grief and sadness isback and it’s like he just died even though it’s been over six months, I don’tknow why it’s so much more difficult all of a sudden but I just miss him somuch and I feel like I can’t breathe – “
It’s then, when her voice breaks off with a gasp,tears falling down her cheeks, that she realizes Red is speaking.
“Lizzie, Lizzie, it’s all right, just breathe, justbreathe for me, sweetheart, can you do that? Everything is going to be fine, Ipromise, it’s all right, just breathe.”
And Liz finds herself clinging to his voice like alifeline and she’s breathing easier now, taking deep gulps of air, and calmingherself.
“Is that better, Lizzie?”
“Yes.” She whispers, her throat sore and her voicehoarse. She already feels more empty and exhausted than she has in days.
Talking about it really does help.
“Now, I’m going to come over and we’re going to talkand you’re going to get some sleep tonight because I have a feeling you needit, all right, Lizzie?”
“All right.” Liz says easily, smiling a little now.Why did she wait so long to call him? Because, after all this time, she shouldknow one thing.
Red will always take care of her.

I promise I'll make this a read more but I'm on mobile right now
I just feel like crap lately and my anxiety it coming back hard core. My body is always shaking for no reason and my heart is racing and earlier this week I didn't sleep because I kept having obsessive thoughts and thought I was going to die (that's not a joke I honestly thought I was going to die). Like I have a rational mind and an irrational mind. So I knew I wasn't going to die but yet the other part of my brain was like "but you are". Anyways life is hard right now. And I feel really alone in my life, I do have a lot of friends but yet feel like I have no one who understands me or that I can talk to. So I actually have like GAD and OCD and depression, so it's a lot and I have to talk about things 8+ times before I get over it and I don't want to annoy my friends by making them listen to the same problem over and over again! So I just feel like I cant talk to anyone! But lately it's been really getting to me and I feel like I won't find love and I don't fit into the gay community and all that shit. I don't drink and I WILL have a panic attack if I go to the bar or club so I don't go but everyone wants to go so then how do I meet people right? I don't do hook ups and I actually want a real serious long term monogamous relationship (which I've found that you actually have to specify which is stupid) like more ham 50% of the guys I've had things with have not wanted monogamy. So I feel like I'm out her on my own. Also if you've read my other posts you'll know that I made friends with a straight guy, which is literally the only male friend I have, and now all of a sudden he's starting to act super distant and is sending one word texts and seems like he doesn't even want to be my friend, and it's like is this because I'm gay and you think I'm going to hit on you? It just makes me worry and think I'm not good enough. It seems like all straight guys get weirded out because I'm gay and then don't want to be my friend, but I have NEVER hit on them or made a move or anything. So wtf. My friends boyfriend had a guy from his childhood message him MRI catch up, and it had been a long time since they have talked they he thought it was kinda weird that he messaged him out of nowhere, but then he found out that this guy was gay and instantly stopped replying because he was scared this guy would hit on him. Like 1. He thought this guy wanted friendship and then found out he was gay and instantly thought he wanted his dick. Like fucking surprise gay people just want friends too! 2. Notice I said he was scare this guy would hit on him, as in the guy DID NOT hit on him. And so he stopped talking to him. Like ok way to jump to conclusions. It just makes me scared even more to talk to guys in her real and especially straight guys, because I constant feel like they are judging me and thinking I will hit on them and I have to watch my mannerisms because I might come off too gay and they won't want to talk to me. I've honestly got home from talking to a straight guy and cried for like an hour because I was that stressed out. Keep in mind I didn't even cry at my grandparents funerals, like I never cry, but this made me cry. Also it's such a slap in the face and makes me feel awful about myself and then I'm obviously undesirable or doing something wrong because this same friends boyfriend does actually get hit on by guys, like he's been asked on dates by guys and stuff. And hes straight and in a relationship, and I'm gay and single, like where are the guys who are interested in me. Well they don't exist. It just make me feel bad that he doesn't want them to hit on him and they do and then I'm like sitting here with all this live to give and I feel like I deserve a nice guy and stuff and no one actually wants me or even notices me. Like the past guys I've been with have literally done nothing but tear me down in every way possible, and I'm waiting and hoping someday maybe I'll find someone who actually cares about me and it will all be great, but that day doesn't seem to be coming. I'm just sad, I'll probably delete this later, I'm sorry this is so long and for complaining and ranting, and I don't even think this whole thing is coherent or understandable, but brain is just a jumble, ok bye
