Explain disco elysium to someone whos never played disco elysium
if you have played this game you will know what an impossible question this is to answer. but i can try
you're an amnesiac detective with the dual tasks of solving a murder and solving the mystery of who you are, why you're here, why *here* is *like this* and why *you* are *like this*, and whether the answers to any of those questions are related. it's a dialogue heavy tabletop-inspired open narrative rpg with a lot of chance elements and a lot of freedom in choice. you can build your character to be a cocktail of many different traits based on your decisions so your interactions with the world are very meaningful and will shape how you move forward. the setting is best described as magical realism; there are a lot of things parallel to our own world, as well as some supernatural/magical elements that are worked into the narrative in such a way that they hardly even seem like magic. it's a well-built world that feels very real, which is important because the setting has such a profound impact on the characters and story.
as for the meaning of the game, the takeaways are so deeply personal and also dependent on how you go through it. politically it calls out the sheer ridiculousness of fascism, the cruelty of centrism and the evil of capitalism, while also addressing the failings of contemporary communist circles- most notably its favoring of intellectual debate rather than direct action. it addresses the fallibility of human beings in all their aspects: how relationships fall apart, how even the best intentions lead to terrible consequences, how sometimes trying your best just isn't enough. it also addresses the beauty of humanity, of how people make beautiful things out of the ugliest parts of life, of how there will always be one more chance to try again, somewhere. it's about death and how to live in spite of it. it's about the stubbornness of life and how to die, regardless. it's about futility, and the inherent hope in hopelessness: if nothing you do matters, focus on the *why not* instead of the *why bother*. it's about making joy where you can find it and embracing pain where it comes to you. it's about unfairness and inequity and the apathy of circumstance, and knowing that it will never ever change, and knowing that regardless, you have to try. it's about fighting back and giving up. it's about being presented infinite choices in a singularity. it's so incredibly meaningful and everyone is going to get something different from it that reflects what they listened to most. it's genuinely a work of art.
it's also a dress up game.
#words fail to capture this game. the official trailers and box art info and stuff literally do not explain it at all#it's such its own thing. my advice to anyone actually new is to watch a clip or two of gameplay and decide based on that#but also it belongs on girlsgogames dot com#it's soooo fun and it's hilarious but it WILL sucker punch you many times before it's over#come closer. wouldn't you like to play as the funny sopping wet middle aged bisexual communist man w/every mental illness?#it's a normal game i promise i promise i promise you wont have your entire chemistry altered for ever and ever#kiwipost#im soooooo normal dont look at me#ask

ty for posting about how good condemnation wings is in that one spotify wrapped post because i had been sleeping on the blazblue soundtrack for so long and it was what gave me the push to check it out some more. as a result i have had condemnation wings in my head for the past 2 days. i appreciate this greatly.
ITS LITERALLY LIKE. i genuinely cannot pick a favorite favorite of the blazblue ost. discounting the IIs theres genuinely so few that i dislike that it's basically zero. daisuke does not fucking miss. please listen to imperial code. and memory of tears. maybe childish killer. honestly any and all tsubaki themes slap so hard justice sword and inJUSTICE are also bops in this essay i will-
#cawing#at age 6 i was born without a face#i could opine for so long about why every og character theme is so fucking good and it wont make any damn sense#but its just soooooo. daisuke does not fucking miss!!!!!!!#i was gonna say its borderline blasphemous that condemnation wings is slept on but like. it really is#especially in the face of like. must die and stand unrivaled. some of the older themes get left behind#please please pleaes theyre all so everything to me. even a few of the IIs are good#all of the ct character and vs themes are literally classics lik eogh. CATUS CARNIVAL MY BELOVED. queen of rose. bullet dance#of COURSE rebellion. even the opening ao iconoclast is my favorite one of all of them shinsou slaps but ao iconoclast is the blueprine#tumblr should let us edit tags god dammit.#blazblueposting#there is so much love in my heart for blazblue music#even the vocal cover of cw (cry camellia) is good. like not as good as the original#cause all the vocals are just like. a little to the left. but its of the Better era aka before... recta ratio or so#where they just completely dropped the main guitar line (THE BEST PART!) to put the words in its place and it's just so inferior#you will never be love so blue or cry camellia. OR DONT LOOK BACK#THE ONE OF ALL TIME#anyway im so normal about the blazblue ost i prooooomise.#come closer i will be normal (you want to listen to blazblue music you want to listen so bad)#i was about to say something stupid (that cwII isn't that bad. it is. i always forget how bad they are until i hear them again)#(and get to The Bad Part aka yuhki cannot not ruin it with a weird section that doesnt fit at all ever. never an improvement)

I came here to be a hater and hate on the minecraft movie trailer.
Get ready because this is probably the longest and the most autistic post ive made so far
I wont talk about the weird cgi and how unprofessional it looks but about how inaccurate the trailer is because it pisses me off and I have to be a nerd about it <3
ALSO IM NOT SURE IF TUMBLR WILL LET ME POST ALL OF THIS IN ONE POST so if it doesnt ill reblog with the rest <:3
first of all, those are NOT minecraft mountains.
Yes such seeds exist and you can find smt like that super easily in the game but it does NOT look so blocky
It should be a bit more smooth like here ⬆️
Next, what the fuck happened to the flowers.
Alot of the plants, trees, etc look like a disrespectful rip off of minecraft
Talking about plants, the trees are a big wtf
On the first pic you can see the log is SO THIN. LIKE THINNER THAN A TOOTHPICK. In the second you can see it is thicker, but because the block that fell out is so Itty bitty, you have to make the tree thinner.
The tree is as wide as the players, and when the block falls out its bigger than whatever the fuck this is. Yes I understand they have to carry the blocks and they can't make it too big, but you know what's a good solution? - make the blocks bigger when they fall out, but make them shrink when they get close/get put into a chest or inventory. SO EASY
Also I know you can find pink sheep naturally in the game, but oh come on.
You want to show how sPeCiAl the characters are and that they're sOoOoOo special they found a pink sheep on their spawn but oh my God you could have just let it be a normal sheep.
We stay with animals, and WHAT HAPPENED TO THE POOR WOLF. THE SNATCHED WAIST???? WHAT DID YOU DO TO HIM ☹️
and why is the creeper so, fluffy. Creepers are NOT made out of fur they are made of what alot of minecraft players suspect rotten skin like zombies or a skin-alike material, but it is NOT fur.
Also, *wrong buzzer sound* llamas don’t just spawn naturally. Unless theres a wandering trader (or however theyre called in english) they aren’t able to spawn just like that. They also usually have the carpet on their back.
EDIT: TURNS OUT THEY DO SPAWN NATURALLY IN MOUNTAIN BIOMES. still the Llama being here looks like they just put her there to try and "be funny" ykwim?
I also wanted to also say, this one character I feel that they're gonna be the most stereotypical, annoying one out of the whole movie and my ears hurt just looking at them
I wanted to say that the portal shouldn't be blue but like. Only the nether portal is purple, it's unknown how other portals look so... yeah
But still wtf is this cube??? What's the fuck are you holding young man???
Also, talking about mobs, piglins dont look like that, they dont have red light in their eyes, they dont have those drum-things because THEY DONT EVEN EXIST IN MINECRAFT which i will get to latur. They aren’t able to build like that, they aren’t able to get wood for trapdoors and for the fences and iron for the chains. Also they do not even know how to craft, they probably domt even know what a crafting table is. And ghasts also aren’t able to be in the overworld. I understand that theyre invading the land ans taking over but still Like Cmon >:(
I also wanted to say that this is not how nether looks but like. It does a bit, like where the piglins usually spawn ykwim? so ill give them that, the nether looks alr
Anyway TALKING ABOUT THINGS THAT DONT EXIST IN MINECRAFT: whatever this is, it isnt craftable in minecraft, unless there are mods installed. But the „mods” excuse can be used for everything in this post. It was the first thing i saw that pissed me off so badly that i had to make this post because like JUST USE ALL THE STUFF THAT THE ORIGINAL FRANCHISE HAS TO OFFER! NORMAL BUCKETS WOULD PROBABLY WORK JUST FINE!
Last but not least, if you think those two are the same character ive got some bad news for you buddy.
At least dye his beard brown. At least get the colours right. Please.
I think i mentioned everything i wanted. Lets hope the movie will get fixed or will turn out to be at least a bit better.
Thank you for letting me get nerdy about it <3
#pawl3ss#shitpost again#Rant#minecraft#minecraft movie#Honestly im so happy to talk about this because i absolutely love minecraft and talking about something that can -#- that can potentially ruin the fanbase of one of the most beloved franchises lets me yap about minecraft & it just makes me so happy :3#it makes me so mad that a movie about one of my favourite games is being so disrespected like#i bet my whole life savings that i could have made a minecraft movie post it on yt and it woulve been ten times better that this shit

almost ended that with "and no i will not elaborate" but we all know thats a fuckin lie
okay i just started season 2 of oregairu so if theres something i didnt mention thats probably why. no spoilers please! also i wont be spoiling any specific major events in either story but i am talking a lot about the structural similarities so. anyway lets get into it
starts off as fairly conventional for the genre, albeit more self aware than usual and with a slightly off-center protagonist
as you learn more about the protagonist you realize that hes perhaps less reliable as a narrator than you anticipated - he has a tendency to downplay his own suffering despite being very open (with both his peers and the audience) about the things he has gone through
as the plot starts ramping up, the protagonist is revealed to have a very specific method of problem solving: he will put himself through hell or become the enemy of the whole world in order to save someone else. he does not consider this to be heroic, but merely logical, as he considers the suffering of others to hold more weight than his own.
his peers catch on to his methods fairly quickly and are obviously upset by it, because they love him and hate to see him get hurt, but he refuses to accept that it hurts anyone aside from himself because he believes himself to be fundamentally unlovable
due to the unreliable nature of the narrator and the first person pov, you are forced to sit and watch the protagonists loved ones suffer on his behalf from behind the wall he has put up around himself, while he tells himself, and you, that they'll be fine.
um. i havent finished oregairu but. im guessing the general formula will be a bit different from here given that. orv resolves this conflict metatextually. anyway who was gonna tell me that oregairu had such a kim dokja-ass protagonist huh???? i was not fucking PREPARED. im grabbing these sad pathetic little guys by the collar and shaking some sense into them fr
anyway heres some more cosmetic/lighthearted similarities to end it off
insane banter between the protagonist and the tsundere love interest
chuuni gets absolutely annihilated after very little screentime (but dw he comes back later)
romance bait (complete with sparkly shoujo filter) with a fairly minor side character who is classically the protagonists type but who only likes him platonically.
oregairu is like if orv was a romcom. send tweet
#putting this version in the fandom tags lol#orv#omniscient reader's viewpoint#oregairu#my teen romantic comedy snafu#i wonder if the unhealthy amount that i relate to kdj is noticeable from this post.....#bro when hikigaya was like 'you just have to make sure no one suffers' over a clip of him right after intentionally being a dick#so that everything would work out and everyone would only hate him#and hes all alone sitting against a wall...... GOD. FUCK#'no one suffers'...... bc his suffering doesnt count...... GOD im biting the fucking walls#anyway uhhhhh i think this counts as my regularly scheduled orv propaganda#the line about metatext made me feel so clever LMAO#like ooooooh you wanna know how that works soooooo bad....... just pick up the novel and find out......#DONT look at the wordcount okay its definitely not longer than homestuck its fine its a normal length just read it

girl what do you feel about kris' and noelle's relationship in snowgrave i want to know
OK OK. first of all thank you for specifying "in snowgrave" because if you just said their relationship in general i would literally never stop talking.
second tho, im really bad at putting how i feel about character dynamics into words because often there's just soooooo much to be said and different ways of looking at it and i get overwhelmed if i try to make some all-encompassing analysis. so let it be known that whatever i say here is not the full picture and there's so much more i could say.
putting this under the cut because i already know im gonna talk for way too long:
that being said oughghghhgh. where to fucking begin. i'd say the most fascinating (and disturbing) thing about their relationship in snowgrave is the weird romantic undertones. the fact that you have to pressure noelle into the idea of riding the ferris wheel with KRIS instead of with susie, her actual crush.
one of the most overt symbols of this weirdness is definitely the thorn ring. i know it isnt the only ring you give to noelle to equip, but this is the one that's mandatory for the snowgrave route. in order to do the route, you have to make KRIS give NOELLE a RING. a ring that literally HURTS HER TO WEAR. if that isnt a metaphor for a forced relationship i dont know what is
however perhaps the most damning and obvious one is of course this option:
i would say something about this myself but @/sorrybutiforgothowtomakecontent's tags on another one of my posts really summed it up:
im also aromantic so this really resonated with me. but yeah just going back to the first point they make. you literally HAVE to say "we're something else" in order to do the snowgrave route, which seems to make it pretty clear that this kinda subtext was intended. snowgrave can only exist with kris and noelle being "something else" because that's literally what snowgrave IS.
my favorite way to view snowgrave is through the lens of an arranged/forced marriage. again, the ring. it just feels so gross, especially because it's not just a regular marriage but an abusive marriage. snowgrave is abuser simulator (2021). im sure i dont need to explain that part
but the thing is, SNOWGRAVE IS NOT JUST ABOUT NOELLE and that's what makes it SO BAD. not only is noelle being forced to go through all of this, but KRIS is being forced to be the one who does it to her! kris clearly is EXTREMELY upset about snowgrave judging from the constant opportunities to choose more "normal" dialogue and abort the route, and from afterwards when they meet back up with ralsei and susie:
kris, under no circumstances, wants to do ANY of this. but they literally do not have a choice. snowgrave isnt kris manipulating noelle, it is US forcing kris into manipulating noelle. no one is winning here. they're both traumatized, and kris physically cannot even talk to their friends about it or show the true extent of their hurt. it SUCKSSSSS
and when you consider the idea that kris and noelle's friendship may have become strained specifically due to dess' disappearance, and kris possibly having something to do with that with the bunker and whatnot..... well now you're just forcing kris to hurt their friend AGAIN, when in the normal route this could've been their chance to finally reconnect. ahghrhgrhghh
going back to the marriage stuff, it's just so uncomfortable to see these two forced together like this. noelle is in love with susie. we dont know kris well enough to know if they have a crush on anyone (or if they get those kinds of feelings at all), but that doesn't matter. the fact is these two are likely not romantically interested in each other at all, and they are being forced together BY THE PLAYER. and it's horrific. (and even if one or both of them felt that way, this is still entirely wrong. they do not get a choice here)
@/hellspawnmotel's tags on this comic of hers will always haunt me, bcuz like. yeah. this is it:
there's also the fact that kris is naturally kind of a goofball; they're a prankster, especially it seems when it comes to noelle, as can be seen with the stepping off the button thing or the many, many examples from their shared childhood brought up by noelle.
but in the snowgrave route, kris drops this entirely. all of the alternate dialogue options to abort the route, which are very likely FROM kris, are very genuine and apologetic. kris is scared they're going to lose their friendship with noelle completely because of what you're making them do, and it's like they panic and all of their usual goofiness and sass is just dropped for genuine emotion. it's really sad to see honestly, esp in a full snowgrave route where you know that their efforts will be in vain.
OH OH ALSO. can't believe i haven't mentioned this yet. the fact that NOELLE KNOWS SOMETHING IS GOING ON WITH KRIS. THAT'S one of the things that really makes me insane.
noelle goes through ALL THAT, seemingly AT THE HANDS OF HER FRIEND....... and yet. she knows that something is wrong. she KNOWS kris, and she knows that they don't act like this. you'd think she would instantly cast kris off, it would be the right thing to do, but she doesn't. because she knows that something is off.
i cannot stress enough the fact that noelle is the ONLY one who seems to have noticed just how strange kris has been acting. sure other characters comment on kris seeming off or doing something they usually wouldn't do, but it is NOELLE and NOELLE ALONE who takes such notice of it and decides to actually DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.
"i have to figure it out" is a mission statement, it implies that noelle (at least in the snowgrave route), is going to actively try to figure out what's going on with kris, WHICH IS CRAZYY and i feel like not enough people are talking about. not even kris's own mother has fully realized something's wrong. like she says, noelle seems to be the only one who's noticed just how off kris has been acting, and the only one who might try to understand and help them. genuinely makes me insane thinking of where that might go in this route oaugurhghh
im gonna stop here because im exhausting myself but. in conclusion I LOVE CHILDHOOD FRIENDS GONE WRONG!!!!!!!!! FAVORITE TROPE EVER!!!!!!!!!!!! anyways read this comic (all 3 parts) and you'll get it
oh also "kris, why are you wearing my watch?" still makes me go fucking insane
#i genuinely could talk about these two forever. favorite dynamic in deltarune hands down#they're my favorite characters individually so the way that snowgrave intertwines their stories#noelle's strength and kris's possession#into this horrible thing of being forced to force someone else to kill and make them think THAT'S what true strength is. augurgrghhrgh#they genuinely make me insane. i need to see more of them NOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW#not art#asks

Besides Anthy what other characters do you are aro- or any kind of a-spec?
All Of Them.
on a more serious note, im very partial to the following aspec readings of characters:
aroace/aroace lesbian nanami; one thing to know about me is that i realised i was aromantic because of two things. the first is that i wrote a 55k word fanfiction about two side characters from the 2005 bbc political satire 'the thick of it' that was basically just me airing my fundamental discomfort with romantic relationships, and the second is watching her tragedy and the romance of the dancing girls for the first time. Yeag.
aromantic nanami is profoundly important to me and i really just resonate with her character on a personal level. like shes so me. i dont get it. i too have convinced myself of all kinds of taboo and 'weird' affections and feelings because i Dont Understand Romance (just as a side note: i understand why some people take the cold turkey 'nanami never considered romantic feelings for her brother!!' reading, but for me personally. i think it's important to consider nanami considering those feelings, specifically because they make her feel uncomfortable, alienated, etc. there's also lots of interesting things to be said about how incest can affirm heteronormativity (and how it can't!! but that's more of a kaoru twins can of worms)).
and there's other stuff but we needn't get into that. i love when other people feel able to talk in-depth about how their personal expereinces shape their responses to rgu, but im not quite at that point with certain things. i do also just really like reading nanami as an aroace lesbian bc i find her connection with utena specifically to be soooooo. gah. delicious. fascinating. devastating. and also i love aroace lesbains they are the best
asexual utena; i just think he's neat :} sometimes i feel hesitant to read characters as asexual if theyre teenagers or if they have sexual trauma and funnily (not) enough, utena is both! having said that, i recently decided 'fuck it' and have been thinking about this interpretation of his character more and more. like, my aromantic identity is partially political, partially trauma-informed, and i feel quite strongly about queerness in part being one's choice to define (or not define) themselves on their own terms, be they 'contradictory' or 'inaccurate' or whatever the hell else.
i also have a fondness for asexual masculine characters. me personally i read utena as butch and transmasc and i think it's really interesting to think about how that queer masculinity can be expressed outside of allosexuality, especially considering what rgu as a show tries to do wrt that matter. dont ask me about my feelings on ikuhara and false dichotomies of love and lust in his works or i WILL explode ok sarazanami is The aroallo show and im soooo normal about it all tbh
i have this kind of vague arospec touga reading that im always knocking about in my head but kind of scared to talk about online because like. it's quite a lot to get into and, as an aroallo person, i dont want to get into discourse about if it's problematic to read a character like touga in that way. bc like. i dont think it is. but that's because i'm basing this reading off of my own lived experience and understanding of what aromantic allosexuality can look like. to be honest, if i really had to stick labels on them (bc labels are a shorthand to me that never fully express the complexity of identity that i want to personally (writer disease)) i read anthy as an aromantic lesbian and touga as aromantic and gay. but normally you would have to waterboard that out of me because im terrified of how people who aren't aroallo respond to aroallo conceptions of like... Anything. lol.
i think the tldr of Why im compelled by those similar readings of their characters is. something about how terrifying and constraining and rigid and incomprehensible and inaccessible romance feels to me as a concept. and something else about how important sex is to me as a concept, and kind of. this radical sex positivity that is so essential, imho, to beginning to unpack the issues baked into our hetero- and amatonormative conceptions of romance and sex, and thus reclaim human connection as we please. blah blah blah wah wah wah body as a bargaining chip or whatever (guy who is mildly terrified of talking about these things for Reasons).
that's it for specific readings i have of specific characters, but i will say that i do find it hard to put myself in the shoes of certain characters if im thinking of them as alloromantic. like i think juri probably is but i dont not understand her conflict with shiori and why it agonises her so much. but tbf, most of my focus on juri as a character is her struggle for self-acceptance and her fascinating gender troubles. funnily enough, that's also kind of how i feel about saionji. they are just both so genderfuck self-hating gay plagued by the power dynamics and i love that for them.
anway yeag :} rejoice, aromanticism be upon ye
#anyway thats enough being perceived for the day#normally when writing character analysis i try to limit my 'if i was this guy' response bc it can often be unhelpful#but in this context i think it's warranted. and i'd rather be transparent about that#like these are just MY interpretations that are entirely and heavily formed by my life experiences and understanding of my identity#and you know i do want to write something longform about aromanticism in rgu and ikuhara's works generally#but in doing that i would have to ground it in the personal. that's what it is and not doing so would present a very different argument#ie one that's kind of like 'and this is the truth and the whole truth and everyone else is wrong'#when my aspec readings are all like. 'here's where im coming from and here's how this was resonant for me'#'and hopefully that might help you understand me and others like me better :)'#ANYWAY ENOUGH VULNERABILITY#dais.txt#dais talks aspec

this is for the carmen lore lovers okay i always think "i should complain less both irl and online since its probably not good to be so negative all the time" but anger really does keep me alive etc but good god this mold shit is driving me insane like thank god i live with all my irl friends cause no way in hell would i invite someone over like "yeah ignore the mildew smell and dont look too closely at anything and dont touch the walls theyre permawet" its humiliating and it's so shameful just having to exist here and who knows where im gonna be living in a month im soooooo sick of this bouncing around where i live the last so many years -_-
like i havent really had a proper home it feels since 2018 like it's just "this is where im gonna be for maybe a year and its just where i keep some of my stuff and sleep at" like cant even put posters up cause theyll die. i have one big painting i made in our room to add some color but we gotta clean off the mold every so often but its abstract so at least it's hard to see and i really dont care about it enough if the paint gets worn away.
still waiting on the landlord to finally get back to us considering the repair guy (who she lives with but idk if theyre a couple but thats not my business im just a nosey nancy) and he was like shocked and mortified at the mold (he used to live here and hadnt seen mold this way) and okay it's a concrete house with stucco exterior but the fact that the middle most wall is wet he said something like uh thats kind of impossible to dry. any professional/ legal ppl weve talked to have said this is basically hazardous living and unsuitable conditions (even with the semi illegal mold agreement we were forced to sign that was snuck small into the lease, if anything its incriminating) and like now what? will we get relocated since this is house needs to get torn down (it has 85% humidify with is like 10% over legal livable limit) but if not then how long do we have to move? if its condemned then what man. we have a backup plan but it's a long as hell drive and far from everything so at least we dont gotta worry about nowhere to live so im trying to not stress too hard and just let da wind take me where it goes. so maybe we will soon live in a real house thats dry and i really cant beleive im back to where i was like 6 years ago of "i just need a bed to sleep in" i want to live a normal life where our cutting boards dont get moldy.
fuck all life.

opening more than what is necessary to internet strangers and dehydrated insane behavior
i have been feeling so weird. soooo weird.
i never read into anything that happens in my life because i think it would cause more questions then answers and while i do believe in this and that i just. never consider anything ever like i just cant it makes me feel cringe
but im really feeling WEIRD because it really does feel like im about to enter the Next Phase Of My Life. but its so uncomfortably noticeable its making me want to edljsdkjg crawl out of my skin.
its not even bad change but its . change . like my life is noticeably changing. and its not even just the transferring to a nice four year its like Everything at the same time HSDJKFND
im sure it's just a result of trauma in many ways but i get soooooo fucking scared when things are good HSDKDJFSD. like. its what i want but i feel like i havent done enough to earn it. like i havent suffered enough for it
my early twenties for me have always been for me to figure out how to be stable and reserve my energy so i can live the rest of my life. i want for nothing. i have no aspirations outside of stable job and life to support me and my partner and maybe have kids on dual income. i already did the drugs and partying as a teenager.
but when those things start to like. happen i get SO freaked out i get so BUGGED out i feel like everything is going to fall apart.
IM SO SCARED!!!!!!!!! everything is SOOOOO SCARY TO ME!!!!!!!!! WHY IS MY LIFE CHANGING WHATS GOING TO HAPPEN. I DONT CARE WHO THE IRS SENDS IM NOT OPENING THE DOOR.
sometimes i wish i was . more normal. im so self aware and self conscious and all i do is used my brain but i realized so recently that my self worth is like way lower than i thought. but its not that im negative like i have no internal hatred or vitriol.
but i was reading like . messages and looking at pictures and i was like. i was so desperate for someone to love me during all of this but people already did. i have no idea how to deal w that now KJDJFS
its so weird. it feels like im about to live my life. but i dont know what my life is without all the horrible shit in it!!!!!!!!!!!! the fuck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and like. everyone has a hard life but my life was Bad. like 2020 was the worst year of my life and it was not the isolation but like. [redacted] happene. like it wasjust insane not to make light of anyone else but i truly did have a Hard life
i just . dont know. im just not used to this. being a druggie addict dickhead deadbeat with loose morals and no prospects is comfortable sdkjvf. its how i see myself its how ive always been its who i am. im not prepared to turn my life around im SCARED!!!!!!!!!!!!! I DONT WANT TOO!!!!!
im sure this is some mix of dehydration and period anxiety but myjgbkjsfnjhhgsdjklfjfgjsdfkja. IM SCARED IM SO SCARED WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO ME IF I MAKE PROGRESS.... I FEEL LIKE A FRAUD IT FREAKS ME OUT

I wish Jaehee had an actual romance like the other routes have. Even Rika gets one if you do V's first bad ending. Sure it's toxic but its something. I'm supposed to believe me and Jaehee stay platonic throughout the whole thing?? She has some lines that seem to hint the beginning of feelings but it never gets expanded. She's smart, diligent, loyal, knows judo and can get shit done and yet they waste her potential!! She could of taken care of the main plot if she was allowed to use her judo, I promise you that! We wouldn't need the whole 11 days!!
The closest we get to a romance scene is when Jaehee passes out from preparing the xmas party in her route of the xmas dlc and the MC kisses her cheek and one of the options you can pick is like 'One day I'll tell you my feelings' LIKE WHEN IS THAT DAY COMING???? Also some anniversary and bday chats have some cute romance moments like when Jaehee wasn't sure about her swimsuit but when she thought of you seeing her in it, it made her happy and then wanted to walk the beach together just the two of you.
The company still makes anniversary and birthday art but I dont think theyll be making any more game stuff so this is all we get for her. She deserves better than this!!!!! She is the best character in the game. She cares about you so much and the feelings are mutual soooooo like why not go all the way??
Also, I was looking at her normal ending bc there's a cg of her and Jumin fighting over you in a "Hey, join my company" kind of way and as a bisexual, it's a lovely cg.
I'd still pick Jaehee over Jumin anyday but it's still nice to see two hot people fighting over me
Also, this was her bday art from 2022 and its so pretty!!!! Like they're killing me!!!!! She's so pretty!!!!!! I love her!!!!
WAIT I JUST NOTICED IS THAT A RING ON HER LEFT HAND???? DID MC GIVE HER THAT????????? IM CRYINGGGGGGG
#prince's ask tag#ty for the ask!!#having just gotten all the endings in this game i have many thought about this game. mainly about how they didnt utilize my girl#free her please let her LIVE!!!#i love her so much! one of my all time faves!!#im sorry i just cried about a fictional character but if you read this far thank you and I hope you enjoyed it

important(?) life update
so for a little backstory...
i volunteer at the concession stand for my local soccer league with 2 other people, henceforth known as 🐺 and 🤢. 🐺 and i are really close friends since grade 3, we met 🤢 this year because hes one of our new friends ex boyfriends. we volunteer at the concession stand from 630 to 830 pm every thursday, for the last 4 weeks. i will admit to not exactly paying the most attention to how much we have float, which is supposed to be $150. the last 2 thursdays, its been closer to $115. cool? cool.
so last thursday, it was only me and 🐺 working the stand. i showed up a half hour early, and decided to open up early. i wanna say maybe 10? minutes after i opened up, so still early, 🤢 showed up and went to sit on the bleachers maybe 10 meters away from the stand. cool, its still early, whatev.
anyways, 630 comes and my bestie boo 🐺 gets there and we wait for 🤢 to come join us. but he doesnt? so we're like "okay maybe he didnt notice" but then 700 comes and goes and we're like "hes literally on his phone no way he doesn't know what time it is" but we also dont want him to join us so we leave it and at 730 he gets off his phone, hops on his bike and leaves.
bro what?
(i kinda assumed he had permission from our supervisor to skip so i, stupidly, did not text her which looking back may be my downfall)
so anyways, 🐺 and i do our stuff for the next 2 hours. i will admit we got a little silly with it and maybe said some cancellable stuff but nothing jail worthy. we close up and again theres on like $120 in the box.
so in a moment of sheer stupidity that may land me in jail, i did not text my supervisor and instead told 🐺 to give me a random number between 10-20 for me to mark as what we earned.
🐺 locks up, her mom gives me a ride, yippee we both go home and live laugh love.
BUT THEN
at 640 tonight, my supervisor calls me. she normally texts so thats a lil weird, but i figure she just wants to confirm my absence on thursday (i have plans w family) so i pick up.
she tells me "kat, all the money from the concession stand lock box was stolen."
UM. WHAT THE SIGMA?????? NOT COOL!!!!
she makes me tell her exactly what happened the last thursday i was there and i tell her, i admit to being a little dumbass and not counting, blah blah blah. the whole time im looking at my mom like 😦.
so anyways i tell her no i didnt do it and shes like "okay 😊 well ill call 🤢 and 🐺 and see what they have to say" and i hang up.
i IMMEDIATELY text 🐺
"hey wanst 🤢 acting weird thursday"
and shes like "yeah haha he may be the imposter"
and i send her the text ny supervisor sent me saying shes filing a police report and cehcking the security footage
and shes like SHITTT BRO IT WAS TOTES HIM
and im like I KNOWWW
and anyways i tried googling it but idk how long ill go to jail/juvie/whatev if im convicted of stealing approximately $150 soooooo yeah. moral of the story dont fool arohnd on the job and alway snitch on your sus coworkers.
#tee hee#drama#life update#life lessons#life drama#personal drama#☆ kat's textposts ⚘#☆ kat says stuff ⚘
