Valfrey: They say the ringing of bells is the last thing my enemies hear before they meet their demise... Is it the same in your case, dear Wolfbell?

She can barely hear their voice above the noise of her void. The noise they create.

This has happened before.

But not like this. Not this clearly.

Wolfbell: …

Wolfbell immediately bursts into what could only be described as a rambling tangent.

Her words all mesh together in an unholy amalgamation of her native language and common. Her paws wave in the air and her wings join along, flapping noisily as her bells jingle.

It’s almost impossible to pick out what she’s saying, but there’s a lot of ‘θεους’ and a lot of ‘γιατί δεν μου απαντάς’ and a bit of ‘γιατί δεν μπορώ να θυμηθώ’ and at least half a dozen ‘Γιατί’ and ‘τι εκανα λαθος’.

That’s one benefit to not having to breathe very much. You can ramble for a couple minutes straight without having to stop to breathe. This is probably much more of a benefit for Wolfbell than it is for Valfrey.

Sooooo I’ve screen recorded the new tale on dorian (besides the paid scenes because babes I’m broke and my coins mean nothing here…😎🥲)

It’s through Google drive because of the file size. You’re all free to grab screenshots and share it and everything. This is so all you guys don’t have to download the app. Enjoy XD (yes. That’s sarcasm. Nothing really to enjoy here…🥲)

My Thoughts: (Slight Spoilers)

Gonna start off with saying it’s not as bad as I had expected, but also not great. Not for what it is.

The writing feels lacking and dry.

The characters feel very OOC- especially Asra. Very cold and rude and just not him.

The MC is just written as kinda dumb again.

The storyline is confusing and kind of hard to follow. Like I actually do not understand why this sequence of events happened.

It feels like it’s rushed, yet also spends an ungodly amount of time on filler scenes.

The lack of music makes a difference. And makes it less redeemable or even enjoyable.

THEY MISGENDERED THE MAGICIAN FOR THE WHOLE THING!

The whole thing is anticlimactic for what it was.

The ending was unclear.

The normally free CG (for tales) was behind a paywall.

And apparently all the scenes you unlock, you only unlock once and have to re unlock every time you play.

The game was still a little slow (technologically speaking). And as you can see, some characters sprites weren’t even fully there.

It feels like they just tried to shove things together and call it a story. It didn’t feel planned out at all. It felt like reading fan fiction. Not that fanfic is wrong, but you can often feel each authors own spin on thing. And it just generally lacks the arcana vibes. Now yes, it’s only one? original Arcana writer doing this with others, but still. It’s not that great. Definitely a bit above the other stuff on dorian, but nowhere near the level of the arcana or fictif.

That’s my general thoughts on it, but I’m bound to have more.

I would so love to say that I want a Jackie gifset with the iconic bit from Watership Down—you know the one, “All the world will be your enemy, prince with a thousand enemies” etc etc “they will kill you if they catch you but first they must catch you” etc—but like….babygirl they very much did catch you.

A little sad poem I wrote at like 2am-

Why is this my first post tho?

I don’t remember my childhood,

I most likely didn’t have one.

I was forced to grow up -

I never wanted to.

I didn’t want the responsibility,

I didn’t like the time it would take,

And so I said no.

I said I would never make it,

My aspirations were just plan b.

I never want to get to 30.

I don’t want a job or a family,

Let alone a life.

I don’t want friends or equality,

I just want death.

It will take me when it wants

But whenever isn’t fast enough.

Imagine, Claus and Lucas in the kitchen, they’re making something, Lucas holds out his hand to grab something and Claus just like, puts a peeled boiled egg in his hand. It’s warm, it’s slimy, it’s awkward. And then they just continue like nothing happened.

I just saw a post talking about how svsss fandom ships every male character with shen yuan and I thought “do we REALLY? Where’s my six balls/shen yuan reverse transmigration love story???? Hmmmmmmmm????”

I put on a Happy Hardcore playlist at work and songs are playing.

psa: you actually are worth it. you are worth the trouble. you are not too much to put up with. your disability doesn’t make you unlovable. you’re not too much of a burden to “put up with”.

you are amazing and lovely and the right person will come and see just how wonderful of a person you are. your disability changes nothing about that

At the reading of Silco's will:

To my beloved daughter Jinx, I leave all my love, enemies, and worldly possessions. Please please please see the lawyer to discuss assets and trust fund.

To Sevika, my most competent employee, I leave you the haircut I rocked in my mid-twenties but had to abandon when I decided to psychologically reinvent myself.

Wear it wisely. Others will attack you jealously over it.

lurking in radfem spaces has really changed my entire view of most mainstream internet spaces because once you realize just how censored women's voices and feminist thought are on these sites, and how much porn and misogynistic values are defended, you can't unsee it.

how anyone can bear to participate in an online space where porn, of all things, is lauded as the bastion of "self-expression" and yet any woman slightly critical of popular cultural opinions is demonized is wild, especially when a lot of that porn is a) violent and misogynistic b) often accessible by minors c) gross and shallow d) myriad of other reasons far better writers have probably described

fuck I'm just so tired. seeking rationality online is just opening a pandora's box of garbage and seeing the reflection of how bleak the social hegemony has become.
