What do you mean, “where did the dwarves go”?

Some of my best friends are short kings

With big bones

Warm of hearth

Dig deep in earth

What do you mean, “where was Yokuda”?

Some of my best friends are Western

With the sun-tanned skin

And fair complexion

What do you mean, “how cold was Atmora”?

Some of my best friends are fur covered

Bearded unblinded whisker folk

They feel every whisper from yolk

(like tree of me)

What do you mean, “how serpentine was Akavir”?

Some of my best friends have shed skin

Taken on new rainments

New names

Anumidium

A New Middle Sea

For a new day

Un jour…

SALUT MON AMI. WELCOME TO THE DISCO.

i’m not sure if your interest in disco elysium is fresh or old or perpetually recurring but welcome nonetheless! i hope you know i also cried when i saw your disco tag in my notifications, because that quote holds so much meaning for me. this game takes root in your soul and doesn’t let go. have fun with it! let it change you. à bientôt

SALUT

it is recurring at this point! Mostly due to you! I started the game well over a year ago but did not actually finish until a couple weeks ago (and cried. multiple times. probably due to the fact that i didn’t stop playing from Ruby-the end and finished somewhere around 1AM, but i’m not sorry about it because gods and starlight that was *so amazing*)

I then think i short circuited for about a week while my brain finished the rewiring and i haven’t been able to think about much else since then.

it really does take root and refuse to let go, I am letting it change me, i am enjoying the ride.

something beautiful HAS happened.

Here, then, is capitalist 'realism': the reduction to the realm of the 'impossible' of any steps that will prevent the destitution of the human environment. For that is what 'realism' amounts to: not a representation of the real, but a determination of what is politically possible. But what is politically possible is at odds with what is physically possible, so in a sense, it is the servomechanism-agents of Kapital, not their opponents, who 'demand the impossible' now. Their fantasy of a sustainable Kapitalism carrying on, forever, without burning out the planet, is perfectly delirial.

- Mark Fisher, 'October 6, 1979: Capitalism and Bipolar disorder'

The phasmid conversation got me more than anything else in Disco Elysium. There's this sense of hope, like a message from another world saying "I'm out here! Can you hear me?"

oh. i understand now.

[mamawasatesttube]

saw someone being wrong about kon on the internet again (i know. shocking) and you are all so lucky i'm sick and feverish and lazy because i DID just seriously entertain the thought of writing up a small essay complete with issue and panel citations about why it's simply incorrect to say that kon never really seemed to reciprocate any sort of crush on tim before geoff/tt03. this is just not true. you dont have to actually ship them but to downplay their importance to each other even in the earliest days is simply incorrect. i'm too tired and achy to bother digging through comics to pull up all the issues that have the bits i want to point at but like... they were both very mutually important to each other from early on. it was in no way shape or form one-sided, whether you want to read that as platonic or romantic. man.

wiggles my fingers at you ouuuu… you want to tell me about solace so bad…

HKJGG wiggles my fingers back lovingly!!! i really do, i fuckin LOVE solace :3 hey did you know i really like making fake skill descriptions?

SOLACE

Follow the north star. Find light in even the darkest places. Cool for: Optimists, Recovering lost souls, Sweet summer children

Solace is the skill you tucked away long ago, at the bottom of Pandora's box. The little one that tells you: despite it all, there is still hope. It needs a lot of nurturing -- and it's far from being the most helpful for police work -- but taking care of it is basically self-care. It enables you to find the glow in yourself that you often ascribe to gold lungs or brilliant halos in others. It encourages you to wake up and watch the sunrise, to play board games with someone you love, to forgive yourself and let yourself be a gentler kind of animal. Constantly looking forward to a brighter future, it also helps shield your morale from damage.

At high levels, Solace gives you a heightened sense of childlike optimism - which isn't always the sense to lead with in this precariously harsh world. Always looking for the bright side will blindside you with naivety. At low levels, however, you may just extinguish whatever keeps your soul alight. You've already lost her once. You may not survive the desolation if you let her disappear again.

Dysprosium, Mary Soon Lee

dysprosium, AN 66, is a silvery-white rare earth metal. its name is derived from the greek dysprositos, meaning “hard to get at”, owing to the difficulty in separating and isolating this rare earth element. dysprosium is used to measure neutron flux, to fuel reactors, and to activate phosphors. terfenol-d is a magnetorestrictive alloy, meaning that it changes shape when a magnetic field is applied, and is used to manufacture underwater acoustic systems.

Kim: 41 is a legendary station. You have-

Harry, giving Kim the expectant eye: This. This hot shit right here you’ve just defended like a cavalry trooper. This superstar detective you’ve been through thick and thin with for a whole week

Kim: -Captain Pryce, it must be a real honour to work alongside him

Drabble 193/366 - Doctor Who

She does understand.

She’s lived too long not to. She’s felt Graham’s grief despite her lost wedding ring. She remembers playflirting the way Ryan does when she was a man.

She knows what the look in Yaz’s eyes means when it falls on her.

Too early, too late. She feels like the awkward rut in the road. Trapping Yaz, herself ground down. To escape she’d have to tell the truth, break Yaz’s hope, and offer comfort for her unrepentant hearts’ regeneration: for the love she can’t feel and the friendship she can.

If with anyone. But not her. Not her.
