one thing i see a bit with disco elysium fan script is a conflation between a failed skill check and bad advice from a skill. one of the beautiful things about DE is the skills are not arbiters of truth; successful checks won’t always lead to the correct outcomes, and a skill level being too high can impair you. in that sense, a failed passive (“anti-passive” according to wiki) wouldn’t be a skill giving bad advice, but a skill failing to fulfill its duty.

(bad example ahead) so it wouldn’t be:

LOGIC [Trivial - Failure]: Stick a fork in the toaster.

but more like:

BREAD-TOASTER: You peek into the narrow opening at the top of the electric bread-toaster.

PERCEPTION: You find a slice of bread wedged between the filaments. Smoke wafts into your nostrils. It’s burning, and you seemingly have no way of retrieving it.

INTERFACING [Challenging - Success]: The metal fork you found in the cupboard. It should be both long and sturdy enough for the job.

You: Grab the fork.

INLAND EMPIRE [Medium - Success]: The tips of your fingers tingle. This seems like a very bad idea.

LOGIC [Easy - Failure]: You are uncertain of the outcome here.

1. Use the fork to fish out the toast.

2. “This is beneath me.”

3. [Half-Light - Godly 16] Establish dominance. Fuck the toaster.

Annotating tips:

whenever I read an article that's printed out I always mark the page. I remember when I was younger, a lot of people thought the teachers were stupid for saying it, but numbering the paragraphs helps.

I also circle words I don't know and then look them up and define them. even if they're words I know but don't use everyday, a simplified definition is easier to understand.

ill highlight things I think are important, if it's for an assignment then I highlight the answers for each question and number what question it's for before answering the question. (I answer questions at the end)

then I also summarize each paragraph. just to the right of it. so then I don't have to reread the whole thing. it should be a couple words if it's a short paragraph. or one full sentence if it's a long paragraph.

day 1 of @deadboystims' 300 followers event: make a stimboard based off of your queer identities! so here's one of them: autiagender! i love this term because (for me) it is a very useful shorthand to explain how autism makes me feel disconnected from gender

had a stray thought about the sinners' favorite colors founded on absolutely nothing

Comic Transcript under cut:

1. Dante: Tick tick... / <C'mon, be nice...>

2. Meursault: I like this one. Dante: Click / <Huh?>

3. (Not shown, but implied to be) Hong Lu: Blue? Me too~! (Not shown, undecided): You didn't just choose the first thing that popped up, did you? Meursault: It's vibrant but not too bright. It can be found in many places and doesn't stand out while nonetheless remaining distinct. (Undecided): ...oh. Meursault: Blue is also the most popularly liked color between most demographics. (Undecided): Oh.

4. Meursault: ...to be precise. Blue-greens are the most popular colors. Blue-violets are not as popular as other blues, as determined by the consensus of multiple polls across districts. (Undecided): I-it's okay, you don't have to justify it. Dante: Tick tick tick tick tick tick / <Aw, it's nice to hear your thoughts though, Meursault!>

(Caption pointing to Meursault: Had to choose something of interest working for Nagel und Hammer so her fellow office workers wouldn't bug her about gifts she was ambivalent on receiving)

FIFI I WAS LITERALLY DOING POWER SCALING ALL THE CANON AFTONS YESTERDAY WITH SOME FRIENDS

Let's say canon is: Silver eyes (Dave Miller), Gameverse (OG William Afton) and FNAF Movie (Steve Raglan)

Steve Raglan literally sweeps.

Because rewatching the Springbonnie scene, the suit sound s HEAVY. You can hear it in his fucking thumps of him walking that thing is very Weighted

HE COULD FULL TILT RUN AT A GROWN MAN AND THROW HIM ACROSS THE FUCKING ROOM. And the way he walks around in the suit like it was nothing just meandering around and circling, taunting Mike like okay?

And not to mentioned he KICKED HIM and it KNOCKED MIKE OUT FOR LIKE A GOOD FEW MINUTES. And the fact he could just take off and toss the mask to the ground one handed, that thing sounds like it has a weight too!

And when he got Springlocked in the movie he DIDN'T just die. Like he didn't just keel over and die he was TANKING that shit. Yeah it hurt A LOT getting stabbed I imagine but he was still a little bit alive at the end scene, managing to bounce his leg from the pain.

And we haven't even see how Remnant-Pilled Raglan could look

Dave gets springlocked three times, and his third time he dies. He gets points for that but he's literally skin and bones. I think a vegetable could kill him

Games Afton gets springlocked once and he dies. Though he is definitely more healthier than Dave was and he also pranced around the Springbonnie suit fit a good bit. Enough for him to at least feel powerful in the suit. But he did only got locked once and dies. And then gets revived as Springtrap.

That's the gist of my argument that Steve Raglan is not only the strongest Afton, but he could demolish the other canon Aftons in a fight. The other two could team up against him and they'd still lose.

*coughs** OKAY. i see what you are saying, and i get it a little bit buttttt ☝️ i actually think steve and games!will are probably pretty evenly matched.

ill start w dave tho, dave miller i think is probably the least capable out of all of them. he does get the point for durability like you said, but that was also years before his Dave Era. he does also get a little point because he can still operate spring bonnie, tho all of them can do that so its like bare minimum lol. i do think dave would most likely have his ass handed to him, theres just no way id believe he could beat himself in his 'prime' so to speak,,

that just leaves games!Afton and mr Raglan.......... i think mentioning how heavy the suit seemed in the movie as a plus for steve doesnt really work because theres no real way to tell if the movie suit is actually more physically taxing to perform in than the games suits. but also historically the fnaf endos have always been really bulky and heavy looking for ex. fnaf 2 endo

and even in springtraps model though heavily damaged the endo underneath still has this type of... whatever yknow?? and lastly theres no meaningful difference between movie spring bonnie and games spring bonnie, theyre both made and used the exact same way so i think that its safer to say that theyre extremely similar if not the exact same.

and about the springlock thing ermm..... chgjhfgj i mean theres obv theres going to be a difference between how the springlocking is portrayed in a 8-bit minigame vs a whole ass film. and i just dont believe there is a like........ like its a bit of a stretch to me if im being honest, to say steve is technically stronger because he Technically Survived longer than games will...... i guess?????? i mean......... im just not convinced. like they both went down pretty fast, and id even argue that games Will had it worse because like when we see him being springlocked and how that was shown then we see springtraps model like his entire head and everything was stabbed/crushed so it actually makes MORE sense for games will to MAYBE go down slightly faster. compared to steves slow and steady wins the race version lmao..... but also in general the springlocking in both are literally like 1 for 1 of each other, like even to the posing its like one of The Things from the movie thats actually pretty accurate to how it was shown exactly in the games. like its silly but if anything steve is probably more of a little bitch than games will cause he was knocked down completely before his face n everything even had the chance to be mashed potatoes. soooo...... 🤷‍♂️ lmao

and thats why i think Steve and Og William are pretty even matched. Dave Miller is probably going down first, but games n movie r cutting it pretty close.. 😳 dare i say games William probably has a better chance at beating Steve even considering The Lore.

and that last bit...... fhghfhgh im SORRY but i have to disagree 100% 🙈 games will could hold steve to a line in which Dave would have an opening to shank his ass and hed be done for, and then games Will could dispatch Dave from there. in my humble onion 🧅

Hi sorry to bother you but I just wanted to say that as an autistic person Starstruck makes me want to cry. I love her so much let her live the happy life she deserves with people that accept and care about her. That “otherness” or feeling of being “incorrect” and being seen as suspicious/ostracized for it was absolutely NAILED and it HURTS SO GOOD. I just really wanted you to know that. It’s nice to see someone like me in media, especially in something like the Kirby franchise. Thank you.

ohhhhh i am SO thrilled to receive this message because i am autistic, and by extension so is starstruck, and this was entirely on purpose! i'm so happy that you feel i nailed it! thank YOU for letting me know this; it's the highest praise i could have hoped to receive!

this was intentional autistic representation by an autistic creator and i am over the moon that it's connecting with you! her inability to "have the right magical signature" and her "mimicry of the signatures around her in attempt to fit in" is explicitly a (rather ham-fisted, if i'm being honest) autistic parallel, especially towards masking.

there are obviously parts of her story that aren't explicitly parallel (she is still a little alien after all, and there's going to be Fun Dramatic Aspects that my real life autistic experience sadly lacks), but for what it's worth i'm really happy that this purposeful allegory was noticed!

thank you again so much for writing in, it means the world

[milimeters-morales]

miles and miles g developing the cain instinct for each other rather quickly mostly due to the fact that miles 1610B is still pretty social (different from actually being able to make friends) and he’s never seen another version of himself before, but it comes as kind of a surprise and seems like asshole behavior to miles g, who i assume would be more reserved and not as quick to pick up on the “i’m not serious” nature of the threats? because i mean, living in e42 as the prowler means he gets exposed to these threats more often, and probably isn’t making that many friends due to grief and a sense of “duty to help mom before all else” he’s going through, AND because miles 1610B has freaky ass powers that can kill if not careful enough… he’s probably not gonna be pleased if Miles randomly tells him “go jump off a bridge” or chases him with a somewhat sharp object like siblings who’ve grown up together would probably do! but i feel after the initial distaste, he finds it funny and nice to bond over because it’s not often you can casually threaten with people who know you don’t mean any real harm, so i imagine it’s even less likely in e42 for an only child with a working mother and only his middle aged uncle to relate to.

also, even with all this, i think they wouldn’t get all buddy buddy immediately even after they team up? it depends on how btsv goes, but i think miles is probably still hurting from learning his lesson the first time he became devoted to people from a diff universe because he teamed up with them to save the world. he still befriends miles g, but with more caution that does tend to get misread as “i’m not befriending a prowler— a horrible criminal” and that paired with the causal sibling-like threats, not a very good mix if you want a friend!

[kate-apologist]

i am begging for someone to canonize a little more info about kate's other kid because a deep dive into the wiki revealed the potential they're in the 3-6 age range when she has to go dark (assuming it's around the 2017-2018 time span) which......

the implications??????

to be fair it's based in an aside by kate's half-nephew who might not have been aware of her second kid (unlikely considering him and gordy are besties but hey who knows) that places the potential span of time from 2011 to 2014, when the line in death in heaven about kate being a divorcee is canonized. and of course doctor who canon is more malleable than playdough, so all of it can be taken with grains of salt but still!

i love stories that have kate's second kid being a young adult, i think it's fun (and i've done it all the time) but now i want to see a 2024 return to power kate trying to rebuild her relationship with an at most 13 year old at youngest 10 year old who hasn't seen her for around 6 years. like her grappling with her own terrible relationship with her parents while trying not to do the same to this kid who already probably resents her a little bit for up and abandoning them

i'm pleading i'm begging for more kate content at any given point but cmon that's the same around age that her mother breaks up with the brigadier and they fully separate the parallels-
