#like really close

Tony, I think someone's try to steal yo man-

I keep forgetting to say this, that Tony and Colin aren't canonically together anymore (because I fell out of the ship when I fell in love with collapsing clayhill Colin). So when you look at old panels, just think of them having a very close friendship.

This is no hate towards the digital time shippers btw. I still like the ship, just not as much as I used too.

Devlog 29

Sooo...I accidentally lied in my last post...

I mentioned that I would be launching the Steam page for Mizuki and the Crimson Moon right? Turns out that it takes up to a week for all the digital paperwork to be completed and stuff. I probably should have been ready for that, so I only have myself to blame. On the plus side, this week was still a great week for game development!

I had some friends and family playtest my game a got a ton of valuable feedback. To any game devs who are reading this: HAVE PEOPLE PLAYTEST YOUR GAME. You cannot playtest your own game, you just can't (bonus points if you get people with different experience levels to play your game). Don't backseat game your own game though, even if the person playing is really bad at it...

I also reworked and polished the dialog system within my game. The original length of the object that handles all that use to be 200+ lines of code, but now it's down to around 80. Gotta love optimization.

Oh! I also got the Yokai Forest area map looking nice and pretty. It was real nice to finally get that finished.

I'm really looking forward to next week, because other than getting a ton of other half-finished work finished, I'll ACTUALLY be creating and publishing my Steam page.

This must be sooooo Terrifying... 

The kids are only SIX freaking year olds. The other’s had their share of death scare with Anya and Damian were strapped to the collars with bombs, which Anya knew was fake, which was a small relief. But this time it’s the real deal and it’s meant to take every single one in the Bus!!! 

IDK if i’m losing my mind, but i know they are going to be saved someway or the other. It’s not their safety that I’m worried about. 

They will be rescued. Maybe by Yor, who could do a quick job with all the remaining Red Circus (in the bus or not) or Yuri, who could still come in at some point. Or even Fiona and Scruffy jumping in the fray. (Highly unlikely, but we also have Loid, who we know is going to snap when he finally finds about this whole mess, just not sure if he can manage to save the kids in the bus)

Or you know, after the cliffhanger this last chapter, 

Anya herself will somehow pull their own rescue, or be elemental in the whole rescue. 

She looks ready and so determined. 

But NO

The rescue itself is not what i’m worried about. 

It’s what comes after. It’s going to give these kids PTSD and some might not  even recover. They are just kids!!! No one should have to go through that!!! 

Anya herself has too much trauma, what with being in Lab for early half of her life and then being fostered way too many times for a six year old. I know this is a fun and light hearted manga, and that there were scary and traumatizing situations for her even before this, but this one by far is the most terrifying. 

Where are the Loid and Yor when you need them!!! 

This is the only thing that’s been going on in my head since i read last chapter.

Who's the hero that gonna take some high quality screenshots of the male Tracis arms and legs for me? I wanna confirm something...

I think we as a society should bring back brotps. I think we should be weirder about characters being friends the same way people are weird about ships. Make those two characters who interacted once or twice besties. Make it difficult for them to get rid of each other even if they want to. Go nuts

i feel like not enough ppl are factoring in the cultural clash between laios and shuro and the many micro agressions shuro faced while being in their group. literally the name 'shuro' in itself is one

his name is toshiro 😭 lets also not forget that he has his own communication issues, in the opposite way that laios does- thats literally a factor in their argument, that his envy for laios's ability to express himself sincerely manifested as part of his distaste for him.

ig all this to say like, was their fight heart wrenching, especially when reading laios as autistic? absolutely. anybody whos ever been in laios's position knows how much it hurts to realize someone you thought was your friend doesnt actually like having you around, especially when they didnt tell you and you had no way of knowing due to not understanding their cues. but im begging yall to step back and see the nuance of this situation cause im gonna be real a lot of you are kinda just brushing over it acting like everything is toshiros fault and that hes a terrible person when in reality hes an average guy who really, really clashed with laios and it led to a very long misunderstanding due to their supremely opposite methods of communication. even laios and toshiro, after letting everything out in their fight, were able to come to an understanding and start a foundation for an actual friendship built on better communication

ok yknow what Edit: i shouldve made it even more explicit at the end of this post, i hadnt thought i would need to since i started the post with this, but i think a few too many people are missing my point so i just wanna clarify. i shouldnt have said 'really clashed' and left it at that because yeah they did, but it wasnt just their opposite methods of communication, it is also very much that toshiro was experiencing microaggressions via laios. it may have been unintentional on laios's part, but it still happened and wore him down, made it harder for him to communicate on top of both the more subtle social cues that he was raised with and his own communication difficulties. i also want to say that the fandom reaction to toshiro and the complete ignorance of this point is also racist tbh or at the very least ignorant. i understand that the anime did not cover this panel, and neither did the manga, as this was an omake, but im gonna be real with you guys. there are enough context clues within the story to clue you into this. if you didnt pick up on it thats ok, but i think this is a good lesson in picking up subtext in the stories that youre watching and/or reading. kui shouldnt have to explicitly say 'by the way laios was racist to toshiro' for this point to be understood, and at the very least, when the author portrays a character in a sympathetic light (as kui clearly does) it should make you question Why they are doing so and what makes them sympathetic, rather than youre immediate and only reaction to be 'well i hated what this guy did/said so i hate them and they suck'. idk exactly how to finish this, just. idk. question your biases and gut reactions to things you see in media and stories, and think about whether or not theres subtext that youre missing.

I can't keep being fundamentally changed as a person by animated movies, it's just not sustainable.

So I'm leaving work and something darts in front of me, maybe 10ft away, too fast for me to see what it is. Peek around the tree blocking my path and I see this

Just like... a whole ass hawk. Dude's gotta be about 1.5ft tall. Massive fucking bird. And it's just staring me straight in my soul like this, even as I try to move ahead. It didn't budge. And there's only this path back to my car unless I want to walk on a busy highway. So I have the option of Death By Raptor or Death By Truck.

So I walk in the poison ivy filled patch off the sidewalk. Guy still isn't moving. Still staring me directly in the eyes. And I do this thing when animals are behaving strangely where I'll talk to them, so I'm just like, "Hey, man. I don't know you. You don't know me. This feels really threatening. I'm just trying to get to my car, dude. Can I get some space please? You're a big fucking bird. I see those claws. You could kill me right now, but I'd appreciate if you didn't, ok?"

It didn't move until I was about 2ft away. Again: I'm as far from it as I can be without walking into the street. It clearly wasn't going to budge. I walk past, thing flies up (silent, btw. Scary) and lands on a brick wall a little further ahead

Anyway. Weird guy. Nearly shit my pants when I noticed a bird big enough to carry off a fully grown cat was just... there, staring me in the face, unwilling to move away from me, a human, something it should see as a threat. I watched behind me the whole rest of the way to my car, just in case this bird decided to help me shed this mortal coil. 10/10 experience. Super cool guy.

For the twins in time AU, I genuinely wonder what kind of people the young twins grow up into because of Stan’s/Ford’s influence. Especially if it takes years for the portal to get fixed.

(Sorry if it seems like I already sent this question, I don’t know if it got sent the first time I asked)

I haven’t fully fleshed out how Ford grows up in the past but I do have thoughts on Stan presently
