(i found that no matter what option i picked i couldn’t beat bax in the arm wrestling game so i made yeong a boyloser because of it)

Step Two: Eleanora and Cove! With Derek and Leandra cameos!

I feel like this game is slowly healing my inner child. Who needs therapy? Just play Our Life: Beginnings and Always. It's free! Except for the DLC. But even that's worth it.

Also, I discovered you can name Cove's fish "Jeremy" and you get special dialogue for it, and it's delightful. Give me all of the build up to Jeremy becoming the reluctant bestie who pretends he hates you but will show up to your wedding like ten or so years later because you invited him and he is in fact your friend now. Please. It's so good. I'm so invested in this funky lil' friendship.

Also, Eleanora calls Noelani and Pamela "'Lani" and "Pam" when she's eight, still not comfortable with calling them her mothers, until Step Two where they are officially "Ma" and "Mom".

Eleanora puts on a very tough front in school since she still isn't used to showing her emotions, despite having been learning to open up and voice more opinions since befriending Cove, and is very insecure. She finds it difficult not to let bullies' comments get to her. That said, she doesn't let it show except for around Leandra, who she trusts greatly, and the only way to get a visible rise out of her is to insult Cove- which... often leads to her trying to "scare" the bully off.

She has a hard time opening up about her more negative feelings until Cove confirms once more she's his best friend and that he could care less about how "loud" she is, as he enjoys their time together and would spend more time together if he could. She cries, lol.

I guess this would take place during "Summerwork" sometime during her panic attack? Probably directly after Cove tries to give her his homework assignment since she lost hers, and she refuses before asking why and just breaking down further. Which... leads to that conversation, and Cove reiterating that Eleanora is very important to him.

OLBA Week Day 3- Poppy

Just cousins hanging out on the poppy hill nothing much

[sheynchankawaiiuwu]

me realizing that the hanahaki disease trope fanfic is very much available for this franchise..*my honest fking reaction*

Context: I was scrolling through Ao3 looking for Cove x reader fanfics that I'll like(as any normal person) then I came across one that was titled "I'm Dying", I looked at the tags and it had Angst and Unrequited Love.

And as the p*ssy that i am, I didn't read it(or the other tags) bc I don't wanna go through another heartache, then thought "Oh god, what's gonna happen if Our Life had a hanahaki trope.. everybody be dying left and right(mostly Derek, like I'm sorry but you can't deny that I'm right)...

Then I stumbled on a tumblr post that said "what if Cove didn't reciprocate your feelings?" And everything just spiraled from there.. if we left Cove hanging and we get a sad The End where the Lasts(mostly Liz and Lee) yell at Cove over and over about losing us and Cove ridden with guilt and Derek with the thoughts "Why not me? I could've treated you so much better than he did!" And sht like that..

Okay.. I'm now depressed.. I'm just gonna play OL2 today..

Edit: i know damn well this post didn't make sense, but I just woke up and was wasted from doing nothing the last 7 days

having cousins is a great way to add some supporting characters to your life without needing to explain their motivations. they're just cousins

Our Life: Beginnings and always as Hogwarts Houses

Just because no one did it yet and because I can. This is not very elaborate and mostly for fun whatsoever, so if anyone is interested an true analyses maybe I could make one if I truly tried to think hard about it.

GRIFFINDOR HOUSE:

Lee

Terry

Cliff

HUFFLEPUFF HOUSE:

Miranda

Derek

Noelani (Ma)

Pamela (Mom)

SLYTHERIN HOUSE:

Elizabeth (Liz/Lizzie)

Shiloh

RAVENCLAWN HOUSE:

Baxter

Kyra

Jeremy

I’m having trouble chosing a house to Cove due to his caring and crybaby/ impulsive and reckless/ IDGAF plus I’m my own man personality. So I guess you could headcanon him in any house based on your OL1 history/route.

Side-note: I totally encourage everyone to do their own headcanons, discuss about it, make cute fanart and just talk about HP x OL1 in general (specially with me) XD
