[soloavengers]

top3 dd2 quests i screwed up no.1 that noble escort quest post welcome to bakbattahl, where i sided with ragnhnall, after the fight in the locked area i SLIPPED down the escape route boulder slide before i could speak to him. very tragic i’m in love with this man and had to watch a youtube video to hear the dialogue and see the progression (the quest wasn’t necessarily ruined bc the log says everything he supposedly told me. but it was Ruined i missed camping with him) I FIND THIS IS WHAT HE SAYS AFTER THE FIGHT

babygirl, you have no idea how badly i lost my footing.

Impromptu Ramblings about the NEO:TWEWY Demo

In case y'all weren't aware, I've been a pretty big fan of TWEWY for a couple years now, and with the sequel coming out next month, the excitement I feel for this game is greater than ever :) I played the Demo for the first time yesterday, and following a couple views of some livestreams of others playing it, I felt like sharing my (very ramble-y) thoughts prior to the release of the full game. This post WILL contain spoilers for both TWEWY and NEO:TWEWY, so if you want to avoid those from now on, please block the tags: #twewy spoilers, #ntwewy spoilers, #neo twewy spoilers, #ntwewy, and #neo twewy ^_^ Oh, and if you wanna keep up with any other posts I make about my experience with this game, please refer to the tag "kat plays neo twewy" :)

-First things first: I have not watched the Final Trailer and I don't plan on doing so to avoid spoilers, especially after the pre-release era of KH3 where a lot of the later trailers spoiled a lot of the endgame content. That being said, I've seen some minor screenshots from the final trailer including what many believe to be characters from the original TWEWY, namely Shiki and Joshua. That is all I know about the Final Trailer and I would very much like to remain as blind as possible going into NEO :)

-The very first cutscene was quite ominous in the sense that this game is likely going to be about "changing fate" (a recently common theme in Squeenix games, which I do appreciate), perhaps leading off from the end of A New Day in the OG and trying to stop an Inversion of Shibuya. Also worth noting that A New Day had similar aspects in which the main character experienced "future visions" of tragic events, although in A New Day these events were not able to be changed, while in NEO it seems like one of the main "powers" our protagonist has is specifically to rewrite these events and avoid a "bad ending." Very interesting indeed!

-I really like the revamped comic book style dialogue scenes, it's much more fluid and modern, which is an excellent direction for the series to take!

-I would love to have an actual PokemonGO knockoff of Final Fantasy creatures, please Squeenix that would be incredibleeeeee

-Also the LINE stickers??? Are so cute???

-I would just like to point out that Fret is an absolute treasure throughout this entire demo, he's hilarious and I will protect him with my life

-UHHHH don't like that Fret picked up some Reaper Pins just out of nowhere.....or the fact that they're apparently popular all over Shibuya.............did y'all not learn anything from the OG game or what lmao

-Okay so when I first got the "curry or ramen" scene and heard NPCs talking about the new curry place replacing the old ramen place I became IMMENSELY distressed that Ramen Don was totally cut from the game because....well, Ramen Don is a King okay?? But I'm glad to learn that no, he didn't fall off the face of the earth, he's still in business and he's the one opening the curry restaurant lolol. PHEW, crisis averted!

-.....I don't like the sudden appearance of a Wall Reaper and being able to read NPC thoughts. Wtf happened when they left the ramen place??? Are they playing the Game alive somehow?

-Okay so I have my own theories about this "Swallow" character and what they're up to but considering this is only the Demo and I still Have No Idea What's Happening, I'm just gonna say that I think Swallow intentionally led Rindo and Fret to the Crossing so they could join the Game. I mean, add in the fact that Swallow still communicates with Rindo during the Game and you've got yourself a suspicious character right there lol

-"Hey they're shooting off fireworks!" Fret honey that's not fireworks oof (see also: "*laughs* I'm in danger")

-WOOOOOO way to traumatize Rindo right off the bat like that LMAOO

-The visuals for the intro are VERY GOOD, the song is pretty decent until it gets all "screamo" (which I absolutely cannot stand sorry lol)

-Shoka is every Customer Service employee ever and I respect that

-Susukichi went from being "meh" to "WOW THIS GUY IS FUN" in the span of 10 seconds and I also respect that (he is also built like an Absolute Unit which is hilarious)

-The Wall Reapers (and just Reapers in general) seem.....way nicer and more helpful this time around?? Like in the OG the Wall Reapers were SO RUDE gfhjgjdfkhn and yeah I'm sure we'll get some like that but the juxtaposition of the first Wall Reaper in the OG compared to the first one in NEO is insane.

-The puzzles are quite a bit more entertaining this time around even if it's generally the same "fetch quest" formula lol

-"Rindo's Group" way to go Fret HFKJDGHSDFKJ mans really left the default name in there lmao

-OKAYOKAYOKAY so to those who aren't aware I am a MASSIVE SIMP for Sho Minamimoto, he's my absolute favorite and I think about him daily. HIS INTRODUCTION IS. INCREDIBLE. I LOVE IT SM.

-GOD hearing him actually SPEAK FULL SENTENCES is just SO SURREAL I love this sm

-Also the remix of his theme???? NEO TRANSFORMATION????? IT'S SO GOOD????????? It's like gone from a Boss Theme to a more triumphant sounding theme and I am HERE for it (every version of Transformation is just INCREDIBLE and getting a new one is even better)

-I Love Him, Your Honor

-Also idk how exactly but it's kinda weird seeing Sho in the OG vs NEO, cuz while he's mostly the same Insane Math-Obsessed Catboy, he's.....calmed down quite a bit?? Like OG made a whole point of how poorly he cooperates with others (not to mention just being completely unhinged and trying to kill everyone), whereas here in NEO he's......actually kinda working with others??? HELLO???? Sir what happened to you and Neku during those 3 years I would love to know all about it

-I guarantee you Sho is still probably scheming shite and will likely pull some total insane BS later down the road, and I am very much looking forward to that. Also, is he looking for a certain Pin or something??? Cuz he keeps talking about different Pins and even mentions "this is just another Psych Pin" like he's actively looking for a Pin to do something with. Maybe it also has to do with the "latent powers of Players" thing he mentioned as well??? What is this dude UP TO oml (also is he in contact with Neku at all?? they're both technically fugitives at this point right?? WHAT HAPPENED AFTER A NEW DAY I AM BEGGING YOU)

-I seems like Sho ALSO has an idea of what's going on in this specific game (even if he won't admit it straightforward). Per his quote "The game's 142,857. Factor it out," he's essentially saying, "This game is a neverending cyle, figure out how to get out of it" (or at least that's what I got from his "cyclic number" nonsense lolol)

-I do like how Sho mostly stays out of sight until he's needed for a battle or assisting with a mission, that's kind of on par with his whole "uncooperative" quirk from the OG, plus he might literally have to stay out of sight of other Reapers and Players considering he's likely breaking the rules of the Game (not surprising considering him and Neku broke practically every rule in the book during OG)

-The nicknames for Sho- I can't- They're so FUNNYYYY GFHJSDFKJ

-He goes from being called "Pi-Face" and "Tabooty" in OG to "Mr. Minami" and "M-Teezy" in NEO LMAOO

-(Wowee I just realized I've been mostly talking about Sho oopsies sorry y'all, this is what I meant by thinking about him almost daily he is THAT much of a fav of mine ghfkjsd)

-Okay RIP Fret and Rindo for not getting literally ANY explanation as to how the Game works OOF, that is kinda cringe that whoever gets the Pin earns points, not whoever erases the Noise (which like I understand but also URRRGGHHH I WANNA SEE THE SQUAD SUCCEED)

-"I should be going home now it's getting late" Oh you sweet summer child-

-Also love the mention of parents in this game???? KH you could learn a thing or two from TWEWY (poor Rindo's mom fhgjkdh)

-KUBO IS HILARIOUS I SUPPORT HIM AND HIS GROSS FACE (also thank you Final Trailer thumbnail for spoiling my suspicions about him very cool smh)

-Kaie is a LAD I also support him, go King type those funky texts I believe in you

-FRET PLS STOP SCANNING FHGJKSDHKJFGHFKJ he's like me when I scan in OG during Weeks 2 and 3 and see Taboo Noise coming after me ghfjdshfj

-Also Rindo can you stay off your phone for TWO SECONDS ik you're trying to figure things out but Fret is a jelly boi and I don't want him to be upset with you my guy

-Sho being an actual sorta mentor to the kiddos?? Who are you sir this is so unlike you ghfgskj what happened to the guy who tried shooting children in the face 8 times over LMAO (granted he's probably just using them but it's still nice to see him actually cooperating and sharing knowledge with the kiddos aaaaa)

-EYO EIJI OJI THE TIKTOK INFLUENCER IS BACK LMAO

-hgjkfshgkjf "we aren't glorifying capitalism on my watch" THATS SO FUNNY TO ME GFHJFSDGHJKS (also an all-orange ensemble is disgusting you deserve jail for one thousand years fkn Cheddar Goldfish Cheezit ass woman)

-WICKED TWISTERS NAME DROP EYOOO we love to see it

-gfhsgjf Poor Rindo embarassing himself for the sake of the Game that's incredible

-R e t u r n t o M O N K E. That is all.

-Dialogue during boss battles is HELLA cool i love that

-HHHHH THE KANON SCENE MADE ME A N G E R Y FRET STOP SIMPING MY GUY says the girl with a Literal Simp Encyclopedia and simps for pixels on a screen daily

-Can't wait to see the other Reapers :eyes emoji:

-CAN'T WAIT TO SEE NAGI MY BELOVED YEAHHHH WOOOOOO AAAAND that's about it for the demo lolol, I absolutely CANNOT wait for next month, this game is gonna be INCREDIBLE holy hell Prepare for more simping, more screaming, and more vibing from Yours Truly :) I fully intend on sharing more general thoughts like this on both Tumblr and Twitter so it's not just reblog-retweet-reblog-retweet with the occasional comment fhgskjd

it looks like ERIK STEVENS / KILLMONGER from MARVEL has arrived in Blackpool. he looks like MICHAEL B. JORDAN, and is THIRTY-ONE years old. i’ve heard rumors from around town that he can be DESTRUCTIVE, but I’ve also heard they can be INTELLIGENT. it seems they’ve been brought here because they are connected to T'CHALLA, JAMES BUCHANAN BARNES, OR ANY CANON from MARVEL by the red string of fate. i wonder how their story will play out. (ooc: sessho, 26, cst, she/her)

kiss me with that b*llshit ,��hey guys! this is the first of my problematic sons , erik stevens ! aka killmonger , aka weebmonger ( i like that too ) . he’s a character from marvel , more specifically BLACK PANTHER ! and i’m #soft for my son. this is my first time playing him , but it’s gonna feel weird because i’ve played t’challa sm times , and my boys are so polar opposite of each other . but i’ll try to give this specimen some justice ! cause honestly he never got any

i’m splitting this intro up into two parts: non-spoiler & spoilers . if you haven’t seen the movie , read the non-spoiler , DO NOT READ THE SPOILERS . i don’t wanna ruin this character for anyone , and a lot of who he is , is explained in the movie , but if you decide to read both parts , don’t say i didn’t warn ya. 

( if you’ve seen it , read both ! )

NON-SPOILER!

erik stevens was born and raised in oakland , california . 

he was specifically raised in the hood .

he doesn’t remember his mother , only being raised by his father .

his father’s pretty much all he’s ever had , in his life .

yeah , from the trailer , he’s got beef with t’challa .

he is the villain ( but fo real he ain’t )

went to MIT . he has a certain way that he speaks , but don’t be fooled. he’s hella smart.

intelligent , strategic , skilled , charasmatic , but he’s got a lot of pent up anger .

that’s pretty much all i can mention for non-spoilers. so there’s some SHIT down below bruh~

SPOILERS!

spoiler alert spoiler alert ! 

don’t read down below if you don’t want spoilers from black panther !

don’t tell me i didn’t warn ya .

okay so basically i’ll break it down like this:

erik stevens is actually the son of prince n’jobu , t’challa’s uncle , who was once war dog of wakanda .

war dogs are basically wakandan spies .

and ‘ erik stevens ’ isn’t his birth name .

it’s n’jadaka ( i love it )

his father was murdered by his brother , king t’chaka , t’challa’s father , at the time , for selling vibranium to ulysses klaue . n’jobu was really jus tired of wakanda hiding out with their valuable vibranium , while he saw the rest of their people , worldwide, suffer.

erik .  did . not . like . this .

his own family killed his father and he was left practically as an orphan .

so he made it his goal to learn , train , and kill , in order to dethrone his cousin , not only out of REVENGE , but so he could follow through with his father’s dream to use vibranium to help the oppressed stand against their oppressor .

and he sure did dethrone t’challa . he damn well almost killed him , oh boy .

"Erik Stevens . Graduated Annapolis aged nineteen, MIT for grad schoo l. Joined the SEALs and went straight to Afghanistan, where he racked up confirmed kills like it was a video game . Started calling himself Killmonger . He joined a JSOC ghost unit , now these guys are serious , they would drop off the grid so they could commit assassinations and take down governments ."

^literally how everett ross described erik. also why he calls himself killmonger .

he was king of wakanda for a hot minute .

oh and 

 just bury me in the ocean with my ancestors who jumped from ships, cause they knew death was better than bondage.

still sh00k

MY INTERPRETATION!

okay so here i’ll briefly explain where he is in this rpg

I STILL WISH HE DIDN’T DIE . but oh well . in this rpg, i’m picking him up where the kingdom found out t’challa lived , right before the huge fight , he’s in blackpool. so he’s still got a lot of HATE for wakanda and pretty much a lot of wakandans . he still hasn’t separated that hate from t’challa ,  just because i really wanted to try out angry!killmonger for myself too !

but that isn’t to say he can’t be plotted out to direct his anger to t’chaka , at some point ,not ALL of wakanda .

my bb could really use some friends?? bitter tragic backstory bbs need a little love too .

and erik’s a little more charismatic than jason , so he’d probs make friends better .

he’s still got his panther habit ( the jaguar suit ) with him , since he was moved to blackpool with the golden necklace still on him.

best way to contact me if through ims !! i don’t do many ooc blogs or discords these days , unless necessary , sorry .

this mun ships with chemistry .

pm , dm , asks , for plots!

a little psa: this mun is african-american and no racist anons or racism in general will be tolerated on this blog. thank you!
