#or if it's completely seperate story

Thinking about giving cyberpunk 2077 a go now it's available for a little over £10 on thegamecollection since it had some kind of update that made it not absolute trash or something?

Not that I think I'll have time to play it. I've only just finished my first playthrough of fate samurai remnant and have at least one more to go for the second ending. Then about a month from now there's the guaranteed to be mega beefy like a dragon infinite wealth. A month after that there's ff7 rebirth so I've got a lot of game to play and enjoy for first quarter of 2024 before we even get into the year itself xD

I need to point something out about the Krew’s conversation with Torbek in episode 19.

Kremy—a man who likes to keep up appearances and appear larger than life, who relies on his silver tongue to spin his words into lies and half-truths—let himself appear as vulnerable to Torbek as Torbek was after the fight.

Because Kremy took off his coat and his tie (Richie made a point to both say that and make the motions as he was describing what Kremy was doing), before getting on Torbek’s level and seeing if there was anything on Torbek’s person that could explain what just happened, before noticing everything else that was off.

Kremy taking off his coat and tie is actually kinda significant, considering that shortly after, he (eventually) agrees to tell Torbek the truth about what happened, and even willingly spoke up to fill in what Gricko was missing in his explanation. Kremy was, metaphorically, letting his walls down and letting Torbek see him in a way that I imagine even Frost and Gricko rarely see (maybe outside of sleeping or bathing).

I mean, of course, Kremy immediately puts his walls back up the following day, and then acts like he is somehow above Torbek for the remainder of the season (which I hope he cuts it out early S2), but…it’s a step. It’s a step in the right direction for Kremy’s arc, and I can’t believe I didn’t even take too much of a notice in this—or anything the gator did—until I started rewatching the series and genuinely started looking into Kremy’s character more.

And of course Kremy’s whole interaction with Torbek this episode isn’t the only significant one, and i promise I’m not ignoring the others (in fact, I’m actually quite interested in the way Frost handled the combat, as well as the way he separated himself from Torbek afterwards, and it will be making me pay extra close attention to Frost for the next few episodes), I just…don’t hear a lot about Kremy in particular this episode.

You know the when it comes to the “demonized radical leftist freedom fighter that the narrative has chosen to turn into a villain (maybe they’re a terrorist? War criminal?) that makes the protagonist realize that radicalism can be Just As Bad but then chooses a way that’s easier and safer than Liberation” I’m surprised nobody has pointed out Gale Hawthorne. He’s this trope exemplified. Ppl will pick all these characters but Gale Hawthorne, probably because we have all sort of deluded ourselves into choosing the comfort of the easier and safer option that is so within the ending of these books, isn’t labeled this way which is wild. This is a poor brown character who we get to know really well throughout the first two books and because of how angry he is due to his oppression he quite literally ends up making Bombs that are used to kill children. And we just. Move on from that. Accept that’s just who he is now and that’s the end of his story as we know it. Huh.

A few little sketches of some possible school uniforms for mage schools/learning centers for magic/etc. :0c Though because Nanyevimi is so scattered and disconnected, it'd actually vary much more by region (like not everywhere would have a cultural concept of what a suit jacket or neck tie looks like lol), so it's probably unrealistic for so many of them to follow too many traditional Uniform Conventions from cultures in our world, etc. But, still, fun to mess around with designs, and think about which would be most fun to wear/what school you'd go to just based off the clothing lol~

i've reconciled my feelings about last twilight by realizing that although i'm convinced most of my favourite bls would benefit from getting more episodes than the usual 12, p'aof specifically works better when he has to work really hard to fit the one story he wants to tell in fewer episodes so that he doesn't try to shoe-horn a completely unrelated story in there to fill up run time instead

where are the headcanon depictions of keith (left 4 dead) with burn scars from his various awful redneck decisions

[nyanryan]

if i had a nickle for every time a piece of media has the protagonist be emotionally manipulated by a digital version of keanu reeves living in their psyche i would have two nickles. which isnt a lot but its weird that it happened twice.

I do not see it. If I don't look at it, it can't hurt me. Foggy and Karen are coming back, it'll just be a surprise. They're doing that thing with Tobey and Andrew before no way home where they lied about being casted <3

Also, while I won't do this bc it's too complicated, I've thought about a cool au for my fic.

Essentially the MC gets shattered like gaster, and ends up in different times, while still stuck in Cyber City. All different fics. Cue shenanigans. At the end of each seperate fic, the MC would get the feeling they knew these people, and then it would end.

And then after every iteration of spam was explored, the MC would fuse back together. Finally being able to use their dark form. And they would remember. Everything they did, in every time, they would remember. And the final line would be:

"In every life I've ever lived, it was always you."

In the newest interview, alvaro said that big chances that professor wouldn't be in the spin off because it's berlin's project and focusing on his new cast or crew. He said this one (Berlin) is separated from LCDP. Does that mean that we wont get Palermo too? 😢 I mean, if the whole 8 eps are just about berlin having fun with strangers he pretends to be friends with, whats the point of watching? The only thing we can hope, maybe the plot would be good, but from the teaser, I too have a doubt about it.

I haven't seen that interview (if those are his exact words, "big chance" is a weird way to phrase it since shooting is done, he's either in it or he's not lol.) Anyway, I wouldn’t take too much away from his words. They are pretty much a rephrasing of what Pina has been saying. They might mean Sergio won't show up at all, or that Sergio will only show up through a cameo, not in as a central way as LCDP. And that makes sense to me either way. I would personally love a cameo but generally regarding Sergio, it makes sense that he wouldn't be present through all his brother's heists and gangs and day to day life (which was already established in canon).

So I wouldn't compare Sergio's situation with Martín. At least on a textual level. Once established that Andrés had met Martín, it would make zero sense that Martín wouldn't be there since we know from canon Martín has been on his side for ten years prior to the monastery flashbacks. And generally speaking, there is not a single character from LCDP that belongs more in Berlin the show than actual lcdp lmfao. Martín's entire construction in canon was in the framework of Berlin.

That's not to say the show won't be about Berlin having fun with strangers for 8 episodes lmfao. That will probably be it. But I'm still in the belief that Palermo will guest-star or cameo in the last episode, as a form of Berlermo's first meeting. And I think if Rodrigo agrees and Netflix grants Pina a second season, he might be a main character going forward. I don't think there is a lot to hope for from the spin-off but I still believe it will be better and more surprising than we imagine now.

The Incredible Hulk (1968) Annual #10

i love that they don’t lock your character to only meiko in mellow yellow cause that means i can put kaito in young meiko’s slot so it looks like she transitioned at some point
