i'm so mad at the missed potential of the yabusame post chapter 3, they do nothing!! i sometimes forgot that reko was even there and that is a waste, actually like 80% of the cast became npc this chapter which makes me terribly mad but i think alice and reko are the worst case (yes worst than shin even though he became just a regular npc in logic route which is the worst waste ever, but he compared to the yabusames will have his story developed you know, since nankidai completely gave up on the yabusames, especially reko). The entire reason for that is because nankidai had planed to kill them in logic route so he pretty much forgot that they didn't die in emotion route and kinda forgot which is a recurring pattern in emotion route. Which i loathe because favoritism isn't good and all the emotion route haters will use this as a point. Nankidai clearly has is more interested in some characters than others and doesnt know the fuck to do with them. i am still baffled that alice had this little screen time considering that he is THE GUY THAT """""KILLED"""" midori, ESPECIALLY IN EMOTION ROUTE. he just say random line from time to time to remind you he exist which is a crime because alice is best boy and i love him. At least reko gets some good scenes with ranmaru and like talking about nao (once tho), and like the little singing where kanna did death metal head shakes. But alice gets nothing, NOTHING. and that is all caused because in logic route nankidai planned him to die either way so both reko and alice get nothing. Why i'm mader at this that the zero screen time shin or gin have is because i know they are gonna get stuff later on, shin because he is kinda in the center of the story and gin because he is close to sara, but i don't think we are gonna get that much with the yabusames honestly and that makes me mad. The lack of screen time for the main cast is mainly caused by the terrible pacing of chapter 3-1 but with the yabusames its just no real work because nankidai didn't consider it useful since he planned to kill them either way. And the worse is that so much could have been done really god dammit. Alice lost his little sister and kanna lost her older brother, they are shown to have hanged out together, make them build a connection build on their grief, which would lead to kanna having actual positive interaction with anybody in this cast and alice to be less of a loner. For reko focus on the grief of like in a single day pretty much lose her brother, losing nao unfairly, and finding the man who ruined her life and her brother's too. I know we already have some scenes that way but make them more impactful like in chapter 2. Make her be more protective after losing so much in like a day. MAKE HER HAVE A RELATIONSHIP WITH ANZU PLEASE. EVERY CHARACTER DUMMIES PAIR MAKE SENSE AND ARE LOGICAL EXCEPT THE YABUSAMES AND ANZU. Oh also i think of sara finding out alone that that nao wasn't supposed to die and was brought here for no reason except raising mishima survival rate should be something that the whole cast should know actually, in general can THE WHOLE CAST be involved, this is the closest they have ever been and yet they are so distant. its a waste and i don't think it will be better because considering new characters and everything i don't think the yabusames will be relevant until the ending which sucks.

things i miss after spending a week with my family

hugs. constant hug availability and reciprocation is something so unmatched

playing games. the fact that i don't have a single irl friend rn who would realistically be down for a game night is frankly tragic. our parents taught us hand and foot toward the beginning of the week and when i say we played nearly every day..

people understanding my references. my roommate told me recently that she doesn't understand 99% of the things i say, but that's just because she isn't privy to the language i share with my sibs and rents <3

people coming to check on me (or just sitting with me) when i'm having a rough time.

not feeling the need to seek out the internet for social fulfillment, and getting to use it as a bonus <3

the creativity

the laughter

the slipping into old habits. my sister and i designed a game (irl clue) for us all to play and forced everyone to join us. incredibly on par for us since birth.

my family <3

you know i have always been your

favourite daughter”

[foxcassius]

one of my old students from korea keeps telling her mom she misses me and saying she wants to talk to me and this happens to be the only mom i exchanged contact info with so she just messaged me telling me how much her daughter misses me and asked if we can video call and im fine with video calling but i have a feeling it may be a prelude to asking me to do video english lessons and im kinda 50/50 on how i would respond to that

HC + Competitive Battling

// this is the perfect incapsulation of rika's take on battling as a whole. basically for the love of the game - the competitiveness of it isn't really at the forefront of her mind. back when she was a teen, she might've seen it that way (especially during her friendly rivalry with geeta), but after mellowing out and finding herself in the position she currently holds? nah.

she is an elite four member, so she is strong, it's not like she has the title for nothing. that said, she is aware of her weakness in comparison to other people that might be stronger than her, buuuut she could care less about it. what makes battles fun for her is the way she gets to bond with her pokémon, the connection between trainer and pokémon, the rush she feels when she wins and the pride she feels when she's defeated by those striving to be champions.

whatever the outcome, as long as her opponent has learned a valuable lesson regardless, that's enough to make her happy.

[tankgotstuckinthecircusgate]

my biggest dissonance is how robert de niro in once upon a time in america actually looks like young carlo (but more handsome than carlo) but noodles character is nothing like him like max is a certifed carlo core. he would do everything max did

productivity PAUSED. new fletcher album dropped today

I think it’s really fucking funny how C.G. is actually not super smart. That’s really clever and cute. I gave her glasses anyway. Also it’s crazy that Luís has a Papa Skulls t shirt (reference to Trollhunters). Small world! He’s like “look at my awesome t shirt… also I’m scared of EVERYTHING”. And Emily loves all creatures great and small no matter how weird they look, it’s super sweet. She saw Squibbon and said “AWWWW” which is so cool of her.

mikan thoughts

(MAJOR spoilers for dr3: the end of hope’s peak high school & dr2: goodbye despair under the cut)

i feel like one thing that doesn’t get talked about enough when it comes to mikan’s character is the fact that she had a hand in chiaki’s original death (and by extension the entire tragedy since that was essentially the spark that lit the fuse), and the implications that would have on her psyche/mental health/etc post-hope arc.

do you think it haunts her?

when she closes her eyes does she still see her old friend entangled in the spears? or is she lying there on the checkered floor, her body a mangled mess of punctured holes and pepto-bismol blood?

does she still hear her cries of despair as she futilely fought with every last bit of hope she had left to return to her friends while they could only stand there in a helpless trance? another trap she lured someone into?

does she tense up whenever she walks past the video games in the lobby? does it remind her of the one time chiaki went out of her way to spend time with her? and what would her reaction have been after she woke up and learned it wasn’t even the same chiaki?

when she caught the despair disease, did she remember? did she look chiaki in the eyes in the trial room and know something was wrong, that she wasn’t supposed to be there? even when infected by despair, did she have the slightest fleeting hope that she had somehow risen from the dead, only to awaken to a world where she was still gone?

(which begs another question: why did mikan not expose chiaki then and there? of course the easy answer is “because DR3 hadn’t been made yet” but it still gives one something to think about)

they all remember now; does she wonder if her classmates judge her for it? do they notice when she averts her gaze as she walks past? can she feel their eyes burning holes into her head, regardless of how much they may assure her they don’t blame her for it, that they all did horrible things as ultimate despair? even when mikan was the one who got them brainwashed in the first place, even though she was already brainwashed herself?

does she still hear junko’s voice in the back of her head, taunting her, reminding her that she did this, she led the lamb to slaughter, she betrayed their poor, sweet class representative who only ever saw the good in others even on her deathbed, she damned her own classmates—her friends—and the rest of the world to the same fate bestowed upon herself all for the sake of her so-called beloved, regardless of how much control she may or may not have had over her own mind? even if she was ultimately just another pawn on the chessboard of junko’s grand design?

does mikan blame herself?

and even if her friends forgive her, can she ever forgive herself?

will she?

love procrastinating going to bed and then suddenly thinking about how I need to give at least one of my characters VERY strong opinions on different animal species RIGHT FUCKING NOW
