Vampire: The Masquerade - Choice of Games Titles

[lennjamin-o7]

Sometimes, it's a shame that I can only show what Technoblade is thinking in my writing. Because in the scene I just wrote-

Technoblade thoughts: "Please don't let my favorite teacher get hurt 😢. Mr. Craft's just a normal guy who wants to teach me about grammar!"

Philza thoughts: "You better fucking pray to any god who will listen that your throat gets slit before I can sink my claws into you. Because if I have my way, they will name a new War Crime after what I am going to do to you."

So, I'm just going to do my best to get across Philza's thoughts without saying the quiet part out loud.

okay i’ve finally completed all the world of darkness interactive fiction games. my rankings are as follows:

vampire: the masquerade — night road: the crème de la creme of these books. like genuinely the best. also it was the first one i’ve ever played so i have a soft spot for it. favourite clan to play is either tremere or ravnos.

(3-way tie kinda, rankings do matter a bit) werewolf: the apocalypse — the book of hungry names: loved it. it’s super long but it’s absolutely worth it. never really dipped my toes into the werewolf part of world of darkness but i liked being a galliard hart warden. might have to look into it more.

(3-way tie kinda, rankings do matter a bit) vampire: the masquerade — out for blood: okay like i get technically you’re not playing as a vampire—and maybe it should be labelled as a hunter: the reckoning book—but playing as a human witch who owns an occult shop is so fun. i like the story too, the characters feel really alive.

(3-way tie kinda, rankings do matter a bit) vampire: the masquerade — parliament of knives: Ô CANADA TERRE DE NOS AÏEUX!!!!! very fun playing in ottawa, also very cool playing as a malkavian. however i kind of feel like there’s a lot of stuff that doesn’t get explained + i always wind up as arundel’s seneschal. idk maybe i need to try new pathways.

vampire: the masquerade — sins of the sires: yeah i mean i finished this in like 2 hours. not very long, kinda boring at some points. i think i romanced the monk by accident on my second playthrough but i didn’t know bc i had no indicators that it was gonna be a romantic thing. also stat checks didn’t seem to matter at all, like no matter what i clicked worked. very meh addition to the library.

just need to wait for hunter: the reckoning — the beast of glenkildove, which i’m very excited for. i like the human world overlap that book of hungry names and out for blood has.

Out For Blood

Chapter 3

Technoblade attends Theseus Academy: The world's best school for aspiring young super heroes. The only problem? Technoblade doesn't want to be a superhero! Technoblade has tried a ton of things to wash out of the program: He's lied about his power, he doesn't try in his classes, he breaks as many rules as he can, but NOTHING seems to convince the faculty to kick him out! At least he has one teacher Mr. Craft, the totally not suspicious teacher who promised to make sure that Technoblade NEVER becomes a hero. Or: Dark!SBI Superhero AU. Where Technoblade doesn't want to be a hero, and Philza is secretly the world's worst villain who decided Technoblade would be an EXCELLENT protege.

this is in direct response to this post... made a separate post because i needed some time to compose my thoughts and didn't want to hijack yours, @luciferstit.

so... studio BONES actually made ???% angrier than he was in the manga, and particularly so with reigen.

LOOK AT THIS THING. that chunk of pulverized city shown here is a rock about the size of an eyeball a fist on the page.

given the trauma shigeo has been through -- that reigen has unwittingly and knowingly put him through -- over the years of their acquaintance, i struggle to blame ???%.

too many reigen stans try to handwave shigeo getting paid in pocket change for his exorcism work. (too. fucking. many, and that's another post for another time.) this alone is cruel AF. whether or not the boy is old enough to do this kind of work legally, can do it with relative ease, or even needs the money. it's cruel.

do y'all really not see how paying him less than $3/hr -- when he's too young to advocate properly for his needs and rights -- for labor that occasionally threatens his life and keeps him socially isolated makes things worse? shigeo was eleven when they met.

while reigen undercharging for his services might come from a good place, his kindness (at least with his clients) and his profit motive intersect in a way that is destructive to himself and anyone he employs. shigeo gets caught up in this man's cycle of self-loathing financial self-abuse and suffers direct harm as a result.

i never found this shit funny. apparently ???% doesn't either.

the keiji mogami arc, OMFG. honestly, this needs its own post, but six months of daily torment at the hands of a petty, vengeful spirit who brought his woes upon himself? certain death in minori's body had ???% not resurrected him and returned his soul to its rightful place? starving spirits eat shigeo alive in there. this is harrowing even in the anime, which toned down much of the source material's brutality. (the manga ghosts rip him apart, limb by bloody limb, and chew him to pieces while he's conscious. i can only hope he feels no pain...) reigen put him in this situation too, and ???%'s anger at having to clean up here as well is fully, fully justified. 'mob' might forgive, but ???% is holding him accountable.

when reigen's throwback website ushers in new business, reigen takes it upon himself to use this boy to the fullest. the story treats us to a two or three-day span of time where reigen literally works this boy late into the night, taking on client after client... and dumps the consequences of his irresponsibility straight into shigeo's lap (missing dinner and losing sleep before school the next morning. need i mention the boy is already anemic? this is all kinds of NOT OK).

those clients from hell i wouldn't have entertained the first time they approached? the next time they show up, shigeo spends another long night at their mercy: the aforementioned clients pressure him so hard to abandon his morals that he has a panic attack before reigen finally does the right thing. there isn't enough soba in the world to atone for that.

when shigeo protests reigen's ungodly habit of calling him at the last minute for work yet again after missing out on his friends' birthday celebration... and reigen lashes out at him? tells him

his friends aren't real,

that he needs to abandon them in favor of his poorly-paid exorcism job because reigen alone knows what's best for him?

because he needs reigen in order to help him control his powers stay sane?

this is UGLY but human, and so, so not out of character. anyone who has been in shigeo's place will understand just how poisonous -- and sadly common -- this actually is. these are the same blundering but often effective strategies employed by lonely family members and abusive romantic partners to keep people from rightfully deserting them. the teenager putting his foot down and walking away is arguably ???%'s first conscious emergence in this story... in a very healthy fashion.

keep in mind: their eventual reconciliation and reigen wising up as a mentor, boss and friend for a few months don't absolve literal years of mistreatment. not in the eyes of ???%. ???% wants this man's head on a stick.

if that rock above and ???%'s bloodlust for/indifference to reigen aren't enough of a sign that those insults in the first episode of this series weren't exactly sliding off the boy's back?

that shigeo has been seething for a long, long time over reigen's casual cruelty to him?

i don't know what to tell you.
