HAPPY AAI2 Y'ALL!!!

aai2 is one of my favorite games on the franchise, so i'm INSANELY HAPPY with the official release!!

i played the fan translation last year and tbh it is iconic. i absolutely love the characters, they are all so important to me 😭. i'm happy that many more people will play and be captivated by these characters and history just like i do!!

by the way, i promise i will draw something serious and well rendered for these characters ahiwnsownosnw its just that i couldn't stop thinking about this meme like. its so them.

[a-concert-just-for-me]

Okay in response to this post I’m going to “Erm Ackshully 🤓☝️” y’all’s arguments (but really, this is for shits and giggles and I find y’all’s ideas and this conversation so interesting!!!)

(And logically, yes, I know the show wants you to believe that Hunter’s just immediately scarred/has no pain because they likely didn’t want to fit a healing arc into their limited storytelling time. I get it. I do. I’m just making the argument why it would be easy to argue that they are actually open wounds/why I feel like if they were going to do this arc, they should have considered giving a fraction of the proper weight to to the horrifying consequences of such a severe injury.)

Okay so without further ado! We have Hunter pre-Belos. When we look at him, his original scar is on the left side (his right cheek, but I’ll use left for our argument from now on for simplicity’s sake)

Next, we have Belos leaving Hunter’s body. Notice how the big goop scar on the left side overtakes the original left side scar.

In addition, the small scar on the right is shown to be caused by Belos’s goop.

Therefore, I think it’s safe to say from this double evidence that the scar on the right isn’t just an animation error of his original scar being on the wrong side.

Keep this in mind for later!

Next, here’s Hunter after Belos leaves his body. Note the size, color, and shape of his scars here:

“Calaiti,” you might say to my argument, “Flapjack healed him! That’s why his scars aren’t open wounds and/or why they don’t cause him pain!”

OBJECTION! Evidence:

Remember when I said to remember that one photo? Here’s where that comes into play. Hunter’s scars before and after Flap reviving him have been shown several times to be the same size, shape, and color. Absolutely nothing changes!!! They look the same before and after consistently!!!

Also, notice how Flap’s magic only ‘heals’ the left side of his face and neck. The small scar on the right doesn’t light up at all. Then, the left side scars STILL match the ‘unhealed’ wound on the right after Flap dies!!! Shouldn’t there be a visual difference between the healed and unhealed wounds, then?

I’ll admit, this whole section of the episode has a bunch of animation mistakes. See an example below, where the animators forgot the scars on Hunter’s ears during this scene. Therefore, you could use the argument that the animators just forgot to draw the right side lighting up during the revival sequence if you feel so inclined. Sure!!!

BUT to that, I’ll propose this thought: If the animators wanted to show that Flap was actually healing the scars, wouldn’t it be visually more telling to have the scars be darker and/or bigger before Flapjack reviving him, and lighter and/or smaller after, to show there was some kind of resulting change there? Just because they lit up during the revival sequence doesn’t necessarily mean that was Flap healing him. Visually, again, they look exactly the same consistently before and after Flap ‘heals’ them.

~~~

Moving on to the argument of why Hunter doesn’t have any pain after all this, sure, maybe Hunter was running off adrenaline and the pain hits him later. I suppose that’s fair! Doesn’t mean I like it!!! Doesn’t mean I think he shouldn’t have received medical attention even though he said he was okay!!! If we have time for a whole Hexside arc, I think even if he was in shock (which would likely come with a whole host of medical issues which he is not shown to have imo! (Look up ‘burn shock’)), they should have at LEAST insisted on checking him over instead of taking his word that he’s okay!!! He would have been pissed about it lol but idc, show them sitting his ass down and having a healer look at him to show as writers, you’re treating this life-changing injury with the seriousness it deserves.

And if they didn’t feel like doing it before the Belos fight, I would have even accepted them making time to acknowledge the physical and psychological trauma of TTT somewhere else in the last episode. The most we get is Hunter looking sadly at Willow reuniting with her parents before Darius comes along and starts talking to him. It feels like a huge missed opportunity to skip over any negative consequences or closure for Hunter. We just skip to him being healed and happy with no further lines in the show, and that’s a shame to me!

Anyway, thank you for coming to my TED Talk on me defending my goofy headcanon thesis and why I (seriously) think this whole scene should have been handled with a bit more care and consideration to realistic consequences of such an injury.

(This is still my favorite episode though 🤭)

“My logic is the absolute🤓☝️”

[edelgarfield]

why are y'all so allergic to acknowledging that Ludinus makes an extremely good point. sometimes people can be factually correct but still bad people, or they can have a logically sound argument even if you don't agree with it.

ludinus is pointing at a giant crushing a person beneath their heel and saying "hey they shouldn't be able to just kill someone like that" and y'all are responding "my neighbor punched his brother so actually we're the same ☝️🤓"

if a group of people said "our current rulers are exploiting us, we want them gone" and those same rulers came in and indiscriminately slaughtered the resistance y'all would say to bring out the fucking guillotine. this is the same situation except the rulers are gods and the subjects are mortals. ludinus & the cast have all but said "the gods' control of Exandria/mortals is an allegory for colonialism/imperialism" in fact I'm pretty sure on an episode of 4SD they straight up SAID that and y'all are saying "hmmm the colonizers have a point." what about this isn't clicking.

"they're just like us" "they're family" dude, if my brother started a religion where the purpose was to worship him, and he made people go out and start killing on his behalf, I would be like "what the fuck is wrong with you" not "hmmm good idea, let me get a piece of that pie"

if my brother killed thousands of people I wouldn't be like "aw, i forgive you, why can't we be a family anymore 🥺" I would be like "holy shit you're fucking disgusting. die." Imogen got so much shit from the party & the fandom for wanting to save her mom, AND she's always been willing to kill her mom if liliana won't see reason but when it's the gods they're allowed to kill as many people as they want bc they love each other? the fuck?

"they're just like us" except if a character had a body count anywhere close to that of the gods they would understandably be considered irredeemable. like it's fine to sympathize with the gods, I very much do, but the absolute refusal to recognize that their presence on Exandria is inherently exploitative & that Ludinus has every right to want them gone is fucking mind-boggling.

so which is it, are they "just like us" and should be held accountable for their actions the same way and held to the same moral standard? or are they different and all the "mortals and gods are the exact same actually" is a load of horseshit?

"but they love us" cool my mom loves me, doesn't mean she has the right to control me for the rest of my life. it's not about whether the gods are good or bad, it's about the fact that no civilization should exist to be exploited by another & mortals have the right to self-determination. but fuck all that I guess bc God forbid Ludinus have a point.

[sopaprimordialy]

Burps it's me again can you give me some cropsy stuff because I fear he's rarely talked about becaude they didn't do much with his character 🙏🙏

Yeah sure, I got you! 🤓☝🏽

There are a lot of things I like about Cropsy's character and that I find interesting. I'll try to compilate it all in an exceedingly long post, so get cozy buddy! In this essay I'll talk about Cropsy individually and his place in the narrative as well. I can't avoid comparing and contrasting him with Luther in order to do so, but I promise I kept it somewhat Cropsy-centric.

Also I'll be mostly talking about the musical, and when I talk about the movie or the game I'll sinalize it and explain, since I know not a lot of y'all have been crazy enough to check out old shit like that.

1. The Bitch Is Paranoid (He Clearly Has Reasons To, But Still)

First thigs first, let's yap about how this character is introduced.

Both in the musical and the movie, the first scene we get to know Cropsy better is after that mysterious phone call. That sets the mood for how both him and Luther are, how their personalities contrast and crash. Cropsy seems to be deeply worried about what they just did and the strong enemies they made, even if The Riffs don't know it *yet*.

It is not unusual to have this kind of character around the reckless individuals, as they serve to remind the audience of the uneasiness that lies beneath the layer of carelessness demonstrated by the character in focus, and they do so in a comedic and sometimes irritating way. Still, that brings the question: what would be his reasons to trail along with a leader that contradicts his conducts so much?

I have some theories that go all the way from long-term, since childhood friendship to ill contained infatuation, but I think idolatry would fit well enough. He can't help but pointing out his concerns even knowing that they'll go mostly ignored, and even when they are, he still follows Luther. I don't know about you, guys, but I wouldn't subject myself to that unless I was blinded by some sort of emotional dependency, which makes me think that...

Well, there's a lot of unaddressed mental health issues going on there. Specifically about Cropsy, — and this part will get a little personal, but hear me out —, my head canon is that he has OCD. I say that because my father has it too and what Cropsy says and the way he acts kinda reminds me of my dad when I was growing up and he didn't know he had it, didn't treat it at all and would just drive himself INSANE with his own mind.

There are some ~flavors of OCD, as in it can manifest differently depending on the case, but the common denominator (from what I researched and from what my father told me, I'm not a professional) would be excessive, obsessive negative thoughts that lead to compulsions. These are driven by fear, usually fear of harm; things like thinking your own family is trying to poison you, or that some crazy accident/attack will happen if you don't check the locks at least 5 times before going to bed. Some of them are actually based on real reasons to worry, *but not that much*, and some make absolutely no sense outside of "the compulsion's logic" (eg: "If I don't count my steps I'll be fucking killed by an undercover FBI agent")

Explanation given, back to Cropsy.

As I said earlier, he doesn't seem to be capable of not stressing. Since he's Luther's second, it is reasonable for us to assume they've been partners for a long time, thus him knowing it's literally useless to keep hitting the same key like that. He can't avoid it, though, because anxiety is another symptom of OCD :)

In "A Track Fire And A Phone Call", Luther sounds calm at first and we can hear laughter in the background, indicating that the rest of the Rogues are also tranquil and playful, but the little "We set?" Cropsy lets out as soon as Luther puts the phone down is filled with anxiety. He's not buying the general mood of his commemorating friends. When Luther tells him the Riffs are after the Warriors, he's still worried and tries to urge Luther to the fact that letting the Warriors run free for too long is bad business for them.

That's what annoys Luther, showing yet again how their personalities crash.

In the movie this scene is a bit longer (the motherfucker is casually eating some snacks while Cropsy freaks out), and when Cropsy raises his voice ("yeah, right, I'm worried! I just don't want the Riffs down on my ass!" I'm concerned with the fact I memorized that) Luther just kind of nudges him away like a big annoying mosquito, condescendingly tells him that "we can do some looking too, oughta make you feel better" and very unkindly pushes him to the sidewalk (then he terrorizes a poor innocent bystander woman but anyway)

All of the times Luther loses his patience with him are because, in his opinion, he's worrying too much, so I think this trait is worth mentioning.

2. "Yup" ☺☝🏻

In the Finale, some of his most iconic lines include a bunch of yups, and he delivers them in the best way possible: unintentionally interrupting Luther's evil monologue. These are both indicatives of Cropsy's still present anxiety that makes him not able to wait his leader finish talking before nervously agreeing with him AND a foreshadowing to the disorganization of The Rogues during the last fighting scene.

But I want to use this section to talk about Cropsy's supportive and *enabler* behavior.

At first sight, one might think Cropsy's a less worse of a human being because he seems to disagree/not be so into this whole thing Luther's doing, but... is that really so? Hateful people are usually cowards. The only reason racists will casually be saying and doing atrocious thing is precisely because they believe they'll face no retaliation. Sometimes they do that to test weather you're one of them or not: silence is not a negative.

Right after being a little defiant, Cropsy is already singing with Luther. He isn't fully into this stuff, true, but he's clearly what allows it to happen in the first place. I'm ignoring the rest of the crew for a sec here to affirm that because Luther's always doing exactly it to address Cropsy only.

As for a conclusion, there's not much left to say. And that's how I feel about the irl scenarios, too. Like... what is there to say about someone so coward they dont wholeheartedly agree with something fucked up but still silences and allows it? Just stop, Ig. Not that I believe it's that easy to change someone's mind.

3. Whatever The Fuck This Is

I recently made a post about this scene:

And I would like to talk more about :)

So, first of all, toxic relationship much? I think it's time for us to talk about the insanely abusive way Luther treats Cropsy and how he absolutely did NOT deserve to be held like that. Since this is not very clear or present in the musical, for it is a concept album and thus has its genre limitations, I'll be talking about the game.

I watched it all. At first, only the Rogues cutscenes because I'm writing fanfic and needed that, but I ended up watching a full 7 hours long gameplay. All that to say not all of the gang leaders are portrayed as execivelly violent towards his subordinates, that's a Luther thing (well maybe the Destroyers' leader too, but that a whole other story). Having eliminated the possibility of the game/movie trying to "make a point about gangs", I think we can safely say this is just another way of showing how awful Luther is.

If you want me to go into details about the cutscenes I refered to, just lmk, but since it's 3 am and I want to finish this before going to sleep, I'll just say they're various instances of Luther scaring the shit out of Cropsy for fun, pointing a gun to his head, hiting and pushing him around like a punch bag and just generally being a dick.

As I was talking to @almosthonest the other day, I think the fact that Luther does all this shit to Cropsy and Cropsy only has to do with him freaking out about the fact that he actually trusts him and probably even holds more caring and soft feelings towards him, even if they're kept hidden. Homosexualism aside, Cropsy himself is also very troubled, huh?

Does he see so little self-worth that he thinks he has to take it obediently? I mean, he does complain about this stuff sometimes, but he never does as much as fight back or actually calls Luther out. Or, Idk. Quit. I know that would be dangerous as you can't just unsubscribe from a fucking gang, but it's not impossible either. And the fact that he's Luther's second indicates that he never tried (he wouldn't be alive if he did so and failed).

I can see why the other members are still there: they seem to be as reckless and careless as Luther, but Cropsy's not exactly vibing with them, is he?

This fool's in love, in a way or another. That's the explanation for me. There's another recent post of mine in which I'm talking to @desmon1995 and we even go as far as to add the incredible sauce of 💫daddy issues💫 to it (I'll link it when I wake up) (if I remember). (Updates: I did)

Every time I think about how does Luther even have allies, I remember how manipulative people can be and how difficult it is for their victims to get out of it. I'm *not* talking about ideology here because agreeing/being neutral/allowing Cyrus' assassination to happen was totally on Cropsy. He's not a victim in *this* regard. But the abuse? Yes, he is. Buddy's going through the gang equivalent of domestic abuse, and yet he's still holding Luther like something to be protected in the end.

Luther is just kind of (pathetically) clinging to him as the Riffs approach. I wonder if deep down Cropsy's actually relieved that he's no longer being pushed away because Luther's too scared to do so and needs him right there. Shames on them. They're ridiculous.

4. Last and most definitely least...

Cropsy's lactose intolerant. This HC came from this one time I posted about eating chocolate to get rid of my cramps, but actually making it worse as my incompetent body doesn't know how to deal with lactose, and someone (whom I shall remember when I wake up) said it "might be Cropsy".

I don't know about being dumb and forgetting something so crucial abt himself like that, guys, but I'm totally adopting the lactose intolerant part. And yes I chose to conclude this post with that, from all things. I don't know if I have more to say. I just like this a lot. Good night 👍🏼

questions tag game

*Some time ago* I was tagged by the lovely @oonajaeadira - thanks, friend! - to play along, so here goes:

Do you make your own bed? Always when I change the sheets. Sometimes when I’m in an overly productive mood/ I’m procrastinating something else. Never when I simply don’t feel like it.

Favorite number? 12

What is your job? I run an Etsy shop. It’s mostly geared towards weddings and other events. I have a laser engraver, and I use it to make engraved wooden bookmarks (they’re usually used as party favors but they’ve also been used as fundraiser items & book launch giveaways), photo engravings and replica event invitations. I also drive for Uber eats on the side. Which can be interesting and weird in similar ways that any food service job can be interesting and weird.

If you could go back to school, would you? Are we talking about college? I’m assuming we’re talking about college, in which case I would. I genuinely liked being in school and doing research and writing analysis papers. 🤓

Can you parallel park? Sure. Can I parallel park well? Haha. No. Luckily where I live I don’t really have to very often, and on the off chance that I do have to I either A) find a spot I can just pull right into, or B) take a really long time to get kinda sorta close enough to run into whatever store I need to and run back out.

Do you think aliens are real? Absolutely. The universe is too big to conceptualize and Earth simply cannot be the only planet with life.

Can you drive a manual car? I cannot. I’ve always wanted to learn but it never came to fruition and now I doubt it will because fewer cars are being made with manual transmission. Oh well.

What’s your guilty pleasure? None. Life is short and difficult so I’m going to enjoy my little treats without guilt.

Any phobias? Idk if it’s a phobia per se, but clowns freak me out in a way that makes me want to punch them and run.

Favorite childhood sport? Track. And cross country. I was a runner from the time I could run (my dad was a marathon runner in his younger years and so he would put me in kid races starting at age 4) up until about 10 years ago. In high school I ran the 400m, 800m, 1600m and 5k. Since then I’ve done every road race distance from 5k to a full marathon. I had to stop because of injuries- a stress fracture in my knee that never really healed correctly (my knees sound like a bag of scrabble tiles when I descend a staircase) and a total reconstruction surgery on my foot - but I miss it very much. If I could have new knees and feet I’d be running again in nothing flat.

Do you talk to yourself? Oh heck yeah. All the time. Usually in my head but sometimes out loud. It’s a lot of “what are you doing?” @ me.

Tattoos? Just one little itty bitty one - the number 26.2 (the length of a marathon) with a heart as the decimal point on the outside of my right foot. I dedicated my marathon to my mom, so the heart is for her. I want so goddamn many more though.

Favorite color? Leafy green. 🌱

Do you like puzzles? I do! I love codes and logic problems and word puzzles and even corn mazes. I’ve never done an escape room but I have a feeling I’d ace it.

Idk who may have done this recently or ever or five times already or never, so this is an entirely OPEN TAG - so go crazy, kids. Just tag me so I can see your answers. 💚

[1moreoffkeyanthem]

Another OJV friendship that is my fav is Kenny and Kyle, I was wondering if you wanted to talk about them because I live for your Headcannons and tumblr extras 🤓

I ALSO live for the headcanons and tumblr extras and OK ORANGEJUICEVERSE KENNY AND KYLE LETS GOOOOOO!!!

So like, Kenny is EASILY styles closest friend other than each other. And OJV Ken is pretty much everyone’s go-to, like Stan running to him when he feels like he fucked up, Marj and Cartman knowing Kenny’s down with a scheme, but it’s a little different with Kyle.

Kyle is 100% the mom friend of the group. And the WHOLE REASON he’s like that with everybody is because growing up, he was the one to jump in as the voice of reason (especially when the Disaster Duo gets goin) and always took care of his people. And who needs taken care of the most? Kenny.

Kyle is CONSTANTLY scolding him for not taking care of himself, doing crazy shit, yes he’s amused by a lot of the antics, but when the logic takes the forefront, he’s all Sheila mode “DR PEPPER DOESNT COUNT AS WATER ESPECIALLY IF YOURE GOING TO A BLOOD DRIVE” “aw it’s fine Ky I got it covered” “no,” *throws a water bottle at him* “I’ve got YOU covered”

Kyle’s super supportive of Kenny’s career, too. That’s not only his bestie but also his metaphorical son. He is SO hyping up every new painting and sculpture, the first person Ken shows new work to bc not only is it gonna be a confidence boost, but Kyle will also have suggestions when he’s stuck.

Kenny, our darling chaotic comic relief friend who hides his own issues behind a grin and a joke and a guardian angel complex, is VERY protective of Kyle. Nearly as much as Stan is. OJV Kenny is a LITTLE GUY, even shorter than Kyle is, but he’s POWERFUL and has every creative solution to get the gang out of a bind, and he’s really friendly with everyone he meets, and people automatically open up to him. On top of that, he is REALLY good at reading people. Kenny’s super perceptive. He sees when someone in his found family has something going on, even before they say something. Ken was the first to be suspicious of what was going on with Ky in high school, brought it up to Stan, who said “I know dude. He’s stressed as shit but I don’t want to piss him off by telling him to relax”, like Kenny does people EXPERTLY; at 14 he knew it wasn’t his place to stage an ed intervention and knew he had to wait for Kyle to hit the point where he either hit rock bottom or came forward on his own.

On the note of Kenny’s emotional intelligence, I mean, come on. Artists in particular see creative solutions to problems, read the energy around us. And Kenny… oh my GOD that boy is a force to be reckoned with in strategy. Which is WHY he and Kyle are BANNED from teaming up in any game. They’re too powerful together. Poker? Fuckin forget about it those two are DESTROYING EVERYONE they are way too smart and between Kyle’s own abundant perceptiveness and Kenny’s people skills they’re not fucking around lmfao. I also find it extremely iconic that while both Ken and Stan are super smart, you put them together and they are sharing a singular brain cell, doing the dumbest shit, and Kyle is RIGHT THERE telling them off for it.

Kenny is so so incredibly thoughtful though too. He is absolutely the person you want to go to if you need a shoulder to cry on, and Kyle, who is the other person in the gang who gets relied on emotionally a lot, does go to him.

Thank u for the ask man live laugh love orange juice

[cherry-bomb-ships]

Ok I need to get this ramble out or its gonna kill me but like. Was listening to the opening track of the PPG movie's OST and there's a part around 23 seconds in where they use half the notes from Mojo's theme, and then use the FULL theme in the next measure and that stuff is SO COOL it makes me scream, but also like. Ok we're gonna ignore the fact that yes, irl its a terrible idea to have a chimpanzee as a "lab assistant", this is a cartoon and things can get sillay and that feels very Fictional Science of the show to do, and we're also gonna ignore the fact that pre-mutation Mojo was a wild animal outside his natural environment and shouldn't be held accountable for behaving like one. IGNORING ALL THAT.

I feel like one aspect of Mojo's character that they rly try to hammer home in that opening is the idea of Nature over Nurture, and the fact that from the very start, before the mutation and intelligence and evil plans, he was always a force of destruction and is always going to be as such. His only instinct as a normal chimp was to cause damage 24/7 and generally be a crazy little bastard, so going by that logic it makes total sense that even after gaining intelligence surpassing most humans, he's still following that instinct of destruction. I mean, why didn't he ACTUALLY use his heightened mind to help humanity like he said he was going to do when he was LYING? What better way to gain humanity's respect and admiration than inventing things that would benefit everyone?

Well obviously there's the resentment he feels now that he's intelligent and sees humanity as the oppressive species (resentment that Utonium is partially and indirectly responsible for but thats a discussion for another time), there's also the greed and arrogance he has of not wanting to work FOR or under anyone, seeing himself as more intelligent than any living creature on Earth. These things are not excuses by any means, but I do think that deep down, despite all of these reasons, it still boils down to him following that destructive instinct and just wanting to cause mayhem for his own enjoyment.

I feel like this is supported by a lot of his evil plans in the show, because as often as he's trying to "take over" Townsville, the other half of the time he's just out to destroy it altogether with no further end goal, once again just being a destructive force because it's what he likes and wants to do. But there's really nowhere where this is shown to be more obvious than the 10th anniversary special, The Powerpuff Girls Rule!!! In that special, after all, he actually SUCCEEDS in what he's been trying to do for so long, he wins in the end, Mojo Jojo rules the world! And at first he goes with what his intelligence tells him to do logically, succeeding in so many places where humanity has failed itself and basically netting eternal bragging rights for solving all problems with the world, and people love him for it!! But in the end, it's... peaceful. Quiet. Boring. And he comes to absolutely HATE it. The special ends with him giving all of that up, giving up RULING THE WORLD, because he cannot help but follow that destructive instinct and just starts blowing shit up for fun again, and even if he gets stopped by the Powerpuff Girls once again, he couldn't be happier to be back to doing what he does best!!

This was super rambly but TLDR No matter how intelligent Mojo is and how complicated his plans may get, at the very root of his character he will almost always just be following those destructive animal instincts that have been inside him since long before the effects of Chemical X affected him, thank you for coming to my TedTalk 🤓🤓🤓

[zarilia]

Why yes, of course I've dumped Quinn for the Mando dork! Just look at him smile, he could melt icebergs...

I have so few screen caps of Rass 😭 You will get them all! 🤓

Rass full of Sass, Rass the Ass or Rasscal? He's bold in battle, less so when it comes to one-on-one situations. Known for dry humour, yet he will never make fun of you other than spaceship crashing references. He's constantly concerned about the Commander's wellbeing and safety and bonus points for healthy brother bond with Jekiah. So he's witty, fun and caring and loves dogs - just can't say 'no' to the Mando Boy.

When you're about to say goodbye to your bae, but accidentally bump into your teacher 😅 The complete lack of logical explanation about going on Ord Mantell given by this absolute no-one still makes my teeth grind. Who are you and why should the Alliance Commander even listen?

*** general swtor romance rant below ***

Having so many companions obviously leads to some of them being neglected. Not only by the player but by the writers as well. We've seen a small pack brought back into spotlight in KOTFE/ KOTET and Kira/Scourge later on which was satisfying but also raised our hopes for other popular companions, especially love interests. A shame only Lana/Theron still get an update afterwards and are present all missions along. And if they are not romanced, well, the game seems to be loosing an important part of the story. Even after reuniting with LI, there are no interactions, not even any new voice line or short comment when entering new locations. You can't expect players to remain bound to the very first LI, unless they are creative enough to cover the story in between (I'm not, it's been 10 years with no action). Perhaps the writers wanted us to move on based on game budget limitations (voice acting and all)? But they could add some letters at the very least, that doesn't cost much, eh?

Honestly, wrt that masking post, I see unmasked people I immediately know that my life isn’t worth anything to them. They’d rather spare themselves the inconvenience of wearing a mask than consider others for one second. I hate it. “Oh it doesn’t do anything on a large scale” a) and argument and b) even if it didn’t. You’re admitting that you consider me and people like me not worth the effort. It’s awful! Not to sound like a child but it hurts my feelings?? Like oh okay cool you don’t care whether vulnerable people live or die. Cool.

literally. like, if i cant rely on someone to do something as small as masking to protect others how can i ever rely on them for other shit? like theyve basically confessed that they dgaf abt other peoples literal lives if it comes at the cost of their own convenience. i also love the assumption that everyone who says to mask up is just a Performative Screeching Virtue Signaling Soapboxing Abled Pretending To Care and not. disabled people? like does op think we all just died off already HELLOOOOOO

and like, its one thing for the average everyday joe schmoe whos pretty unaware of the systems that affect the world (kind of guy that says "i hate mondays" but doesnt understand capitalism is why they hate mondays) to not care, but seeing Self Ided Leftists say "well the government gave up so stop trying it doesnt matter" while still somehow thinking theyre in the right coz they use terms from theory is like. wow. you are a horrible fucking person. i dont know how you can consider yourself a Hashtag Progressive while openly saying Well actually idgaf about disabled people begging for their lives, thats just Posturing and Performative Moralizing ☝️🤓☝️🤓

side note i love how op threw around the word Moralizing™©®™®®™©™©™©® like. believe it or not i think carelessly getting people infected with a severe disease that disables and kills is pretty fucking immoral. holy shit.

like yea one person masking is not Large Scale Collectivist Action but its also literally your community? like. i always see people going "ohh u have to connect with ur community so u can unite u have to have mutual aid u gotta reach out thats how we survive" but i guess that doesnt fucking apply to keeping the vulnerable people in ur community alive lol. going by this logic everyone doing harm reduction by distributing resources like narcan and hygiene kits in their community should just stop coz thats just Individuals too and not part of widespread legislation after all

sorry for using ur ask to drop this absolute dash stretcher of a rant but god fucking damn. im just fucking blown away by the inordinately moronic bullshit and straight up evil rhetoric in that post. jesus fucking christ.

astarion having abs makes sense

i said it... someone had to... and i can provide logical reasoning ☝️🤓

he is, essentially, a walking cadaver—a magically animated corpse. in my mind, at least, i'm not seeing how or when a dead body can metabolize or otherwise process nutrients. mind you, i see this very literally (probably bc i'm autistic).

i'm of the belief that when he was alive, he was one of those queer guys who frequented the gym for his own vanity's sake. he just has those vibes, and someone has to get it what i mean. that being said, him being starved of blood/"food" is not going to have the same reaction as it would on a living body. i imagine he just looked like a corpse drained of fluids (an enblamber, mortician, or someone like that would know what i'm talking about).

plus, why would cazador starve his spawn and make them visibly look ill when they're going out seducing people 🧍 maybe y'all are into that, but... anyways! it was kind of a core characteristic that he's built specifically in a way that would make the majority of people fold with little effort. he's prideful of it, too. it's kind of this noteworthy thing within his storyline.

the 8 strength part? i have absolutely nothing for that. that's just so funny. i can't not laugh at him whenever i think about it. perhaps someone can explain this besides the devs just dumping his stats. not even bc he's fit, but bc he's a vampire... like, don't they have super-strength? admittedly, i'm new to d&d Lore, so idek. i mean, all the act 1 male companions look like that and have 8 str. point being, if you still insist astarion is a "twink," they're all twinks 😭 i think some of y'all just use that word as a replacement for f**, atp.

"I'm not generalizing but here's me generalizing based on my bad experiences!! check mate! ☝🏻🤓"

are you genuinely mentally bankrupt? buddy just because you have an attraction to terrible bisexual women doesn't mean every bisexual woman is awful :3 if that kind of logic was considered sound then every instance of prejudice would be justified which we both know is not the case. also going out of your way to start drama on a positivity post isn't going to get you the good attention you wanted from your parents or loved ones. the condescending tone that accompanied your dogshit "uwu did I generalize? sowwy 🥺" response? pathetic. it's obvious and it was a sorry ass attempt to make it seem like you weren't calling an entire group of women, who cannot choose their sexuality, manipulative and without conscience.

your bad experiences with bi women don't give you an excuse to demonize a demographic of people. this is common sense you absolute walnut. "wah wah wah a few bi women broke my heart so they're all evil!!" grow a pair of balls and stop with that primitive thinking. I hope bisexual women (and women in general) steer clear of you and your hatred towards people who simply like more than one gender. maybe that rank ass attitude and cornball smegma alpha male profile picture is why they keep leaving you. I am sorry if you take offense 🤷‍♀️

Pride season is approaching and if I hear ANYONE speak poorly of bisexual women with boyfriends/husbands I’ll pop all your tires okay thx for listeninggg <3
