i feel like it’s so integral to have at least one “at home” episode for every companion. so much character to be revealed in the premise of aliens interfering with everyday life once they are back on earth

i think the scoundrel is starting to care about their city-self.

extremely slowly. extremely, extremely, painfully slowly. as slow as molasses drips off a spoon made entirely out of delusion and ripped-up flower petals.

...maybe care isn't exactly the right word. tolerating? putting up with? allowing the city to exist without going out of their way to ruin all of their own hopes and dreams?

it is nice, having a place that knows them so intimately. having a place practically dedicated to them and them alone. having a place where they belong- because they are that place.

they can grow used to it, if they give it a chance. and they are (will be) the master of such a thing...

yes. yes, they can give it a chance. they can give it a chance indeed.

maybe it can give them one too.

So incredibly confused by the entire Silverstone crowd dilemma, because literally every other day barring the main race was up on last year but the race figures were astronomically down. Part of it is probably money, but it’s still way more affordable than F1 which sells out every year, and it’s way more accessible than F1 too. And although Silverstone was great for F1 and not so much for bikes this year, MotoGP is generally way more entertaining.

And yet to combat the falling crowds they’re moving it to May next year. On the same weekend as the Monaco GP and Indy500. So confused.

Kinda weird question- do you have any links to people talking about Mira from ZTD and ableist stereotypes? I mentioned that I was uncomfortable with her portrayal but kinda fumbled it and made some other ND people in chat uncomfortable. I searched for various keyword combinations but most of what I'm finding is like "and not to mention the ableism with Mira" and doesn't elaborate lol.

Not weird at all! And uh, you see, there's a recent post I made where what I complain about is the very fact I've never seen anyone post too in-depth about her at all, I'd love to see posts that do elaborate on that but I do not have any that I know of right now, sorry :/ hopefully someone else who sees this can point to one? Okay!! After some tag searches I have found exactly one post who kind of gets into it I like this take still would love to see. more than just one but hooray

And like though I complain I couldn't elaborate much on it myself I don't think, I believe most of the posts people make about Saito from aitsf would apply since it's a different uchikoshi take on the very same trope of "emotionless characters who cannot function without killing others" I guess he's a worse portrayal though since she's at least not stated to get reward brain chemicals when killing people and I guess her case also has the added layer of "femme fatale" to it? Which either makes it less bad or worse depending on where you approach it from As I said I am not doing a good job of being coherent on this oh and also there's her being "redeemed" and "cured" in the epilogue which in on itself is kinda not great to imply it just goes away like that and honestly I personally don't even buy it I think she'd just be like oh okay Akane over here has like a thousand reasons to hate me after all that oh and what's that she's the leader of a super wealthy underground organization who's organized one of these death traps before yeah no I'm better off going to prison I'll be fine there lmao bye

But I'll say as an autistic person with relatively low empathy I usually see a character who just doesn't understand other people's feelings and wants to feel them too and is just trying to survive despite getting no help and I just kinda go hm. yeah. shout-out to roxas kingdom hearts shout out to mary from ib shout out that's why I started hyperfixating on media art helps me with understanding others a great lot and Mira is just in a story too badly executed for me to care or even begin to wrap my head around tbh like god she's so fucking terribly used as a plot device in every conceivable way that it makes it difficult to see past it and into what she could possibly be if it weren't for the stereotype of equalling low empathy with no compassion what's with her killing off screen in ways that wildly deviate from her stated m.o? why or how was she even in cahoots with Zero why was that a thing? Honestly her dynamic with Sean could have been better fleshed out could have done something interesting about robot child and his aspd big sis but we just kind of don't get any attention brought to the subject of emotions and the authenticity there of except for the "reveal"...

YOU KNOW WHAT that's probably one huge reason it feels so fucked up actually! Like the whole fucking game is written so you could experience it in whatever order you want and therefore Mira being a serial killer at all is something that though not very well hidden it also cannot be a topic of discussion or explored Ever ever because the player may not have seen the fragment where that is revealed yet- problem being the menu design of that game sucks so bad and practically everyone gravitates towards the same few more interesting looking thumbnails first and then the rest is kinda just there, I mean that is part of the reason A Lot of characters feel half-baked I think but also I think it definitely does impact perception of her character specifically probably The Most and then there's just the general not being given nuance not being able to see the minutiae of how that disorder manifests in her character aside from the killings about how she acts aside from being overly flirty trying to lure in Eric but that affects pretty much all of the new cast we don't have last names and in her case we barely have any backstory at all like Saito is a harmful stereotype sure but we get So Much Context for him that people still love talking about him and delving into different aspects of his life since we have that very well telegraphed in the narrative meanwhile for Mira all we can do is fill in the blanks guesswork that only highlights the worst aspects of the surface level portrayal we got and ultimately that people just don't care enough to dissect because there isn't much there character wise once you remove it

a darling dear friend of mine was lovely enough today to remind me that I actually have to SIT DOWN and PHYSICALLY WRITE Northern Dawn

[danketsuround]

if i tried writing a one shot every time sunday six rolled around i would probably die in the process but i want to try.

i used to write oc oneshots back in the DAY (like literally a decade ago) so i think i can do it. plus i don't want to hit writer's block just because i get rusty (this is why my last fic took so long to write).

i often don't have long glorious exciting fic ideas either. and none of my ideas really warrant posting anywhere but here (ao3 seems like a serious place. and a place i don't engage with often). so whenever i have a short blurb or something that won't be expanded on at all, i'll post it here. i think.

[latefrequencies]

Also sorry I haven’t  been on here lately. The RSG ideas are mostly already expressed and/or related to things I can’t talk about on this blog, and everything else has been itself the stuff I can’t talk about on this blog.
