I've watched about more than half POVs so far and I swear, Scar is talking about seeing stuff SO MUCH. coming across the B.E.T. team mining and taunting them about how they should "look around better", pointing out how the mountain provides great view on spawn, "I swear I thought I saw an enderman", his goddamn cape being a black background with 2 purple eyes on it, and I'm sure there's even more I'm not remembering

like, what is this man doinggg

did he only get out of Secret Life after becoming a watcher? is it just a natural consequence of winning AND surviving?? WHAT IS THIS

so I started playing on of the sao games (Alicization Lycoris) and just finished chapter 1, which unlocks the "create character" screen

which means you can just force fem Kirito, but it just goes from:

to this once you flip to female:

Which feels funny, in a 'didn't need to change much there, girl!' sense

(This game has a lot of very forcefemmable npcs, btw)

GUESS WHAT JUST ARRIVED!

I am so glad I splurged and got the online exclusive edition because OOOOOHHHHHHH! I like the little character cards and the acrylic stand is very cool!

Can ANYONE at all on this platform PLEASE be normal about Rogu ??

Posts that even do so much as mention the poor guy are scarce as is, but ALL OF THEM that i've seen treat him like he's some kind of shiny new boytoy for gay people or something !! Y'all ?? Does this make NO ONE ELSE uncomfortable ?? How ? The fact that I'm seeing this from the Yujikiri crowd of all people makes me supremely uncomfortable...

He's a child. He acts like a child. He's clearly stated to be the little sibling of the Rulid Trio. His main trauma is shown to be tied to strong abandonment, loneliness and self-worth issues, which he is seeking to heal by forging familial bonds with our main characters, which ends up putting him in the role of a little kid brother.

And people are seeing this character and thinking about how hot he is and the myriad kinks they can associate with him ?? I'm sorry, but what...? The same people who rave about Eugeo being such a beautiful tragic character and how precious his relationship with Kirito is ? Those people ?

Honestly I feel like I just lost a mildly safe space here ( and I say only mildly because some of the shit some people say is extremely alienating to me as an aro person who yes, loves Eugeo and Kirito's non-platonic relationship. but seriously, how do you gayasses manage to uphold the rules of heteronormativity in your gay ship posts ? there's myriads of types of love and attraction that aren't romance ! you can do better at inclusivity ). Even just for browsing around, let alone interacting.

Truly I chose the wrong character to become attached to after my Lycoris binge.

one thing i love about anime compared to american media is that because of the strict gun laws and general public safety, just the existence of a gun in the hands of some human rando becomes a huge deal. the gun becomes like its own character

you could have insane levels of gang violence, people with the most convoluted magical abilities running around roofs and defying the laws of physics, the whole deal, but the moment someone takes out a gun its like woah woah too far man youre not allowed to do that here where did you even get tha

[mochinon-yah]

let's hope i have some free time to actually draw smth lol

i have two exams tomorrow and one more the next day after that, so... i have to study a lot becauseee the two exams are physics and math, then the one exam after the two is economics :)

i am not gonna passed this week peacefully xp

also, I gotta say, going from Etho POV straight to Martyn POV is quite a whiplash (although I imagine it'd be much stronger the other way around)

like, team renwood mining session is chill, you know right away that they'll stick together, they talk about being old men, Martyn gives Ren a diamond unprompted (at least I don't remember Ren asking? either way it's very chill)

meanwhile there's the B.E.T. team. not only do Bdubs and Etho spend pretty much their whole time on the surface arguing like an old married couple (which also carries on to their mining session), but also their mining session is so wild. every time someone finds loot or, gods forbid, diamonds, they're on each other's THROATS. like, they're acting as if the SECOND there's back on surface they're gonna run off in separate directions

"hello, just two boymoders here, nothing to see"

[shiawasekai]

My impression so far of Princess Tamayori (actual serious spoilers aside) is... huh

What if we made this whole story a lot more...

Dear Lucas Proust,

I’ll be seeing you in Hell. 💖

Love, Erika

What the fuck was that for?! What did Chisato do to deserve that?!

[akuma-homura]

the amount I genuinely want to tweak c!teru

Like they’ve straight up been a self insert for over a decade but like. That’s also limited me ‘cause it’s felt weird thinking of stuff for them because of that

But I don’t want to remove their character, either. I need to change them up just a bit while still…
