When I went from selling beds to jewelry I only had to move across the parking lot, the two businesses were so close together. My commute was the exact same I just parked on the other side, it was pretty great.

One day a couple came in for an engagement ring and I was helping them out and unbeknownst to me they were going through the psychological torment or knowing I’d just sold them a bed but then they walked to a different store in the same shopping center and there I was helping them again. Was I the same person or some copy/paste NPC that indicated their world was not as complex as they previously thought Truman show style, maybe I was a glitch in the matrix, or perhaps I had an identical twin who sold beds.

They finally broke and told me I’d sold them their bed and I laughed and thanked them for letting me be part of their relationship milestones. We all joked that next I’d get my real estate license and sell them a house.

I think it would have been funnier if I could have gotten an escalating trifecta between sex toys -> bed -> engagement ring.

I can’t make male OCs… I get halfway through and then I’m like “but what if he was a girl” and then I can’t stop myself

[moonferry]

it's 1 in the morning so this may be a moment of weakness but i need y'all to hear me out. kent is like unreasonably attractive. his sprite doesn't do him justice but HIS PORTRAIT ? phew.

and the way he's a changed man with ptsd but the second he realizes he was in the wrong, he apologized to his wife? AND HE GOES OUT OF HIS WAY TO ASK YOU TO BRING HER FAVORITE FRUIT???

update its now 2 am and i made this

[ID: a video showing all the marriage candidates with text saying "now which of us will be the object of your attraction?" it then cuts to the male farmer who is saying "hmm. wow. what great options. this is going to be so hard." kent enters and it says "oh neighbors! i've returned from war" the farmer says "HELLO SOLDIER" and a heart bubble appears over their head]

Went out for coffee with a friend today.

She's really into RP and is now in some Andromeda-based RP campaign so we talked about that. I know close to nothing about RP and I have never actually played through Andromeda aside from the multiplayer mode.

"Well," she says, "what's the point of RPing in Mass Effect it you're not gonna be a turian?"

I actually think that this is an extremely based take, provided you're into RP in the first place.

She goes on to explain that she can't draw her character and she refuses to use AI so she just looked up some random turians to find like the most basic generic average joe turian to use as a stand-in for her character.

She then shows me the pic of this generic random turian on her phone.

I look at the picture, and then I just sort of blankly stare at her for a while.

"That's Adrien Victus," I say. What else do I even say here.

"Oh." She's visibly confused because she probably has no idea who that is. It is starting to dawn on me that perhaps she is a more casual fan than I am. "Well he looks like an average turian, doesn't he? Like what you would imagine when you think of a turian. He's got very basic looking colony markings."

I nod, but I take a sip of my coffee to avoid shooting off my mouth and saying something about how this is the Primarch of Palaven and so even based on that rank he is very much not just an average turian.

I explain who that is. I can see it clicks for her when I mention he's from the third game. It's weird talking about Mass Effect with those translated names (she's never played in English) and even weirded to talk to someone who's clearly a casual fan when you're a deeply obsessed person. I have to pretend I'm normal about her not remembering this side character.

She shows me another picture of random turian NPC.

I bite my lip.

"That's Lorik Qui'in," I say.

God idk why I’m thinking so hard about them today but Athena and Concordia are such tragic figures it’s insane

Cause like, of course N was treated horribly throughout his life, there’s no denying it, the games literally state point blank he was groomed as a pawn, there’s no denying his life was shitty before he left the cult

But people don’t as often how his sisters likely went through similar stuff. Manipulated by Ghetsis and likely groomed as well to share Plasma’s extremist views, on top of also having to care for their brother, when they were very likely young children as well. They didn’t have true aspirations like N, they were likely just there to be caretakers for the future king while Ghetsis did his own thing, and it wouldn’t surprise me if there was some fear between the two of them that they didn’t know what would happen to them once N was champion. What use would they have to Ghetsis if N achieved his goal?

Not to mention, they clearly weren’t as manipulated by Ghetsis, they were aware of not only N’s victim status, but also knew he was groomed, and weren’t afraid to say it. How much did they know? Did they know Ghetsis was well prepared to be able to sweep his team and dispose of him? Would that contribute to any fear they had for the unknown? How old were they when they were adopted? How do they cope with the trauma with what happened? And how will they react when they finally reunite with N over two years later? I feel insane, why did Game Freak give us such intriguing characters only to give them like four lines max each and why won’t they do more with them I need to know them in detail
