Smh can’t believe they made R2 straight

[byakuyasdarling]

I just think it’s funny how some characters (all female, mind you) in the games point out how charmless Byakuya is and he proceeds to get frustrated about it every time. Games were literally like “he can have money but NO WIFE to make him complete and he will be mad). That’s why I’m here hehe.

Bat boys seeing their baby sister that is like 13 being in love for the first time/living her first romance and feeling a bit over protective

Gonna say, I was never one to like to writing about first time crushes, but there you go.

Guardians of Heart

Reader(mom) X Richard(Dick) Grayson, Jason Todd, Tim Drake, and Damian Wayne.

Summery: The boys spy on their sister, Meillia, at the park. While they do, they get caught by their mother.

(I do not own any DC characters)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Do you see her?" Dick Grayson, known to the world as the first Robin, leaned over to whisper to his brothers, Jason Todd and Tim Drake, they pear through their binoculars.

"Yeah, she's at the swings," Tim replied, his voice tight.

"Is she with… him?" Dick's voice was low and strained, his grip on the binoculars tightening.

Jason squinted before confirming, "Yeah, it's that kid from her math class."

The three brothers watched from the shadows of an oak tree of a park as Meillia chatted with the object of her affection. The playground was alive with the chatter of young voices, but to them, it was just background noise. All that mattered was their baby sister's heart fluttering with its first crush.

"What does she even see in…him?" Jason made the same dramatic distasteful sound that seemed to echo their collective thoughts. The boy was no taller than Meillia, with a mop of unruly hair that danced in the breeze. He had a crooked smile that seemed to be perpetually plastered on his face, and he talked with his hands, which made the boys suspicious of his sincerity.

Dick's eyes narrowed as he observed the interaction. "Maybe he has her under some hypnosis," he suggested.

Tim snorted. "Or maybe he's not even boy. Maybe he's an alien, sent here to infiltrate our family." His voice was laden with sarcasm, but there was a tinge of doubt in his tone. They had faced enough strange adversaries in their crime-fighting careers to know that anything was possible in Gotham.

"I'm just saying, we can't be too sure," Dick insisted, his gaze never leaving the couple on the swings. "We need to do some reconnaissance."

Jason nodded solemnly, "Roger that, N1."

Tim rolled his eyes but couldn't help but agree. "Okay, so what's the plan?"

"Simple," Dick said, his voice firm. "R3, you're on recon. Find out everything you can about this kid. School records, friends, any suspicious activities. We need to know who we're dealing with."

Tim nodded, pocketing the binoculars. "On it," he said, slipping away to start his mission.

Dick turned to Jason, who was still watching Meillia and the boy. "R2, never take your eyes off them, especially him."

Jason nodded, his expression serious. "Got it," he murmured, his eyes scanning the playground like a hawk.

"I'm going to get closer and find out what they're talking about," Dick decided, his heart thudding in his chest.

"Keep your distance," Jason cautioned, his eyes still glued to the scene before them. "We don't want to spook her."

"Relax, I know what I'm doing," Dick whispered back, a smirk playing on his lips. He had a knack for blending into the background, a skill honed from years of fighting crime beside their father, Batman. He moved with the grace of a cat burglar, sticking to the shadows as he approached the swings.

The boy, seemingly oblivious to his surroundings, was talking animatedly, gesturing wildly with his hands. Meillia was giggling, her cheeks flushed pink. Dick's heart clenched at the sight. She was their little sister, and he didn't want her to get hurt. They had all lost so much in their lives, especially when it came to family and relationships.

He crouched behind a particularly lush bush, its leaves whispering secrets to him in the gentle breeze. The earth was damp beneath his knees, but he ignored the discomfort, focusing solely on the conversation that floated over to him like a butterfly's wings.

"…and then, Mr. Jenkins said I could join the mathletes team!" Meillia's voice was filled with excitement.

The boy with the unruly hair beamed at her. "That's amazing, Mel! You're going to kill it!"

Dick's ears perked up at the phrase. 'Kill it' wasn't something you said to a 13-year-old about a mathletes competition unless you had something to hide. The phrase echoed in his mind as he dissected it, searching for hidden meaning. It was almost as if he could hear the cogs of his detective brain whirring into gear.

"Whatcha doin' Dick?" The voice was soft but unmistakable. He swiveled his head, keeping his body low to the ground.

This non-biological mother stood there, her eyes gleaming with amusement. She had a knowing smile, and Dick felt his cheeks flush with embarrassment. She was the mother they had all grown to love and respect, even if she wasn't the one who had given them birth. She had taken them in, given them a home, and had become the glue that held their patchwork family together.

"Oh, hi Mom," Dick greets, his eyes darting to the swings where Meillia and her crush were now playing a game of tag. "I was just… looking for my…uh…binoculars?"

She raised an eyebrow, her smile widening. "Your binoculars?"

Dick nodded vigorously. "Yeah, they're…uh, really good for bird watching."

Her eyes twinkled with mirth as she stepped closer. "I see," she said, her gaze dropping to the binoculars that indeed hung around his neck. "And what type of bird are you observing today?"

Dick's cheeks burned hotter than a Gotham summer night. "Just… the usual," he said, trying to play it cool. "Robins."

Her smile grew even wider as she leaned down and whispered, "Why don't you tell me the truth, Dick?"

Her knowing gaze made him squirm. Dick sighed and sat back on his heels. "Okay, we're just… keeping an eye on Meillia."

"Keeping an eye on her or spying on her?" She corrected him gently, her smile never wavering.

"Well, uh… it was Jason's idea." Dick quickly pointed to the tree Jason was hiding behind.

Jason's head popped out, his eyes widening in shock. "What the hell, man?" he exclaimed, catching many parents' attain at the language.

"Keep it down, R2," Dick hissed, jabbing a finger at his lips.

Jason's eyes narrowed, but he clamped his mouth shut, glaring at Dick. Her smile didn't fade as she sat down beside him. "So, what's going on with Mel?"

"She's got a crush," Dick confessed. "And we just… we want to make sure he's good enough for her."

Her smile softened into something more understanding. "Ah, I see," she said, her eyes drifting to the playful scene on the swings. "Well, she's a smart girl. I'm sure she'll figure it out herself."

"But what if he breaks her heart?" Dick blurted out, his eyes reflecting his fear. "Or, worse, what if he's dangerous?"

She placed a gentle hand on his shoulder. "He's 13," she said simply, her voice soothing.

"So were we when we started fighting crime," Dick reminded her, his eyes still fixed on the couple.

She chuckled softly. "I can't believe I'm having this conversation," she said, shaking her head. "alright, Tim, Jason, come out," she called, her voice carrying over the playground without raising an alarm. "I'm too old to be dragging you two out of trees like you're still in shorts and capes."

The two brothers emerged from their hiding spots, trying to look casual. Meillia and her friend glanced over, and the boy waved awkwardly, his cheeks reddening. Dick felt a strange mix of pride and protectiveness swell within him.

"Mom?" Meillia's voice was sweet and curious as she approached them. The boy at her side looked up at the trio of older brothers with a mix of awe and trepidation.

"Hi, Meillia," she said, her voice a blend of affection and amusement. "Having fun?"

Meillia's eyes darted between the three of them, and she nodded, a hint of suspicion in her gaze. "Yeah, just hanging out."

Dick forced a casual smile, his heart racing. "That's great, Mel."

"Yeah, just great," Jason murmured under his breath, still glaring at the boy.

"Who's this?" she asked, her eyes on the boy, who was now fidgeting under their collective stare.

"This is Billy," Meillia said, her voice a touch defensive. "He's in my math class."

She eyes never left the boy as she nodded. "Hi, Billy. It's nice to meet you."

Billy stuttered a greeting, clearly intimidated by the sudden appearance of the three older Wayne brothers. Dick took a deep breath, trying to compose himself. They couldn't scare off every boy who looked at Meillia. That was a surefire way to push her away from them, and that was the last thing they wanted.

"Billy," Meillia said, turning to her friend with a look of horror on her face. "These are…my brothers. Dick, Jay, and Tim." She paused, then added, "Where's Dame?"

"One second." she voice was firm yet gentle as she moved with the grace of a panther around the oak tree, reaching up and plucking a squirming figure out of the branches above. Damian Wayne, the youngest of the brothers and the current Robin, landed with a thump on the ground beside them, leaves fluttering down around him.

"What the—?" Damian began, his eyes flashing with annoyance at the interruption, but they softened when he saw Meillia standing there with a boy he hadn't met before. He straightened up, brushing himself off.

"And Dame," Meillia said again, her voice filled with a hint of exasperation. "This is Billy."

Damian looked at Billy with a scrutinizing gaze that could make even the most hardened criminals sweat. "The one you have a crush on," he said, his tone devoid of any emotion.

Meillia's eyes widened, "Dame!"

"What? It's true, isn't it?" Damian said, his voice as innocent as a saint's. Dick had to hand it to him; the kid had nerve.

"Damian!" Meillia's cheeks were now a deep shade of red. "You're not supposed to tell people that!" Damian shrugged, his eyes never leaving Billy.

Their mother swung a hand the back Damian's head, her eyes sparkling with a mix of amusement and warning. "Let's not scare him away, Dame," she said, her voice firm but loving.

Damian's eyes remained on Billy, but he nodded, his expression unreadable. "As you wish, Mother."

"Well, now that's it in the open," Jason said, stepping forward with a forced casualness that didn't quite reach his eyes. "Bill, right?"

Billy nodded, his eyes darting between the four imposing figures before him. "It's actually Billy-"

"Bill," Jason interrupted, his eyes never leaving the boy's face. "What do you want with our sister?"

Billy's eyes grew wide, his cheeks a matching shade of Meillia. "N-noth… I mean, I just… I like her, okay?" He stuttered, his hands shaking slightly.

"That's enough, guys," Meillia said firmly, stepping in front of Billy, her hands on her hips. "You're all being so weird."

Jason's gaze didn't waver from Billy's face. "You know who else is acting weird, little squirt?" he asked, a sly smile playing on his lips, "This little man right here."

"Jason," their mother warned, her tone low but firm.

Jason shrugged, his smirk never leaving Billy's face. "What? He needs to know she's not just some girl."

"Jason, that's enough," She said, her tone brooking no argument. She turned to Billy, who was now visibly trembling. "Billy, Meillia, why don't you two go grab an ice cream?" She pulled out a few bills from her pocket and handed them to her daughter. "My treat."

Meillia took the money, casting a grateful look at her mother before dragging Billy away by the hand. As they retreated, the brothers could hear her whispering fiercely to him, likely explaining who they were.

She turned to the four of them, her eyes stern. "Alright, what's really going on?"

Dick cleared his throat. "Well, it's just that Mel's never had a crush before, and we want to make sure she's okay."

Tim nodded. "And that this Billy kid doesn't have any… issues," he added, his voice trailing off.

Jason's expression was unreadable as he stared at the retreating figures of Meilliaand Billy. "He's not good enough for her," he murmured, his eyes dark.

"You know how embarrassed you could have made Meillia?" She said, her voice a mix of amusement and reprimand as she watched the retreating backs of Meillia and Billy. The four older brothers winced, feeling like they had just been caught in the act of something they knew they probably shouldn't have been doing.

"It's just that lilla is our sister" Tim mumbled, his eyes on the ground.

"I know," she said, her tone gentle. "And I appreciate that you all care so much for her. But Meillia is growing up, and she's going to have her own experiences—good and bad. It's a part of life, and she needs to navigate it on her own terms."

The boys exchanged glances, each one wearing a look of discomfort and reluctance. They had all faced their own battles in the harsh reality of Gotham, but watching their little sister go through the same was something entirely different.

"We're just worried," Dick finally spoke up. "We've seen a lot, Mom. And we don't want her to get hurt."

She expression softened as she looked at her sons. "I know," she said, her voice filled with understanding. "But the truth is, you can't protect her from everything. Sometimes, you just have to be there to help her make the right choices. Not make them for her."

The brothers nodded, though the tension didn't completely leave their bodies. They had been raised in the shadow of the Bat, and the instinct to protect was baked into their very bones.

"I'll watch over her from here," She said, her voice carrying the weight of experience. "You boys go home."

With a final nod, the brothers retreated, still keeping a discreet eye on Meillia and Billy. They didn't know how to handle this situation, but they knew they couldn't hover like overbearing guardians.

꧁𓊈Ppyong crochet pattern𓊉꧂

A/N: Aaa my first crochet pattern! And also a lil celebration of 500 followers ^^ (My explanations kinda suck imo, so don't be affraid to ask about anything♥)

Hook size: 5mm (I use size 3.5 yarn tho) Other supplies: Stuffing, material for the features & stitchmarkers Difficulty: Beginner! (could even be your first project ^^) Final size: About the size of my hand

Stitches/Abbreviations used:

ss - slip stitch

st - stitch(es)

ch - chain

sc - single crochet

inc - increase (two st into one st)

dec - crochet two stitches together

inc-lump - part made out of increases (you'll see when you get there)

Join each round with ss and ch1 to start another round

Start with magic circle

R1: sc6 into magic circle R2: inc6 R3: (inc, sc) all around R4: (inc, sc2) all around R5: (inc, sc3) all around R6: (inc, sc4) all around R7: (inc, sc5) all around R8: (inc, sc6) all around R9 – R16: sc all around

Count out or find quarters of your stitches and mark them

R17- R22: sc around, dec in marked st

Take out the middle stitchmarker (the one opposite of the beginning of your row, not the ones beside it)

R23: sc all around

Make sure your stitch markers are still in the relative quarters they should be in

R24: sc around and do inc into both marked spots

(Keep track of which extra stitches come from the increases – I'll refer to them as inc-lump)

R25: sc around while (inc into the first st, continue sc, inc into the last st) of each inc-lump R26: sc all around R27: sc around while (dec (the first two st), continue sc, dec (the last two st)) of each inc-lump R28: sc around while (dec2 (the first two and the last two st)) of each inc-lump R29: (dec, sc5) all around R30: sc all around R31: (dec, sc4) all around R32: sc all around

Stop and stuff as much as you can

To close off the body just dec all around and sew the remaining opening close after adding extra stuffing if you need

For the wings, horn and face I recommend felt (my mouths are out of fabric bc I didn't have pink felt) and for the shibari rope I just used some random twine I had.

Shape-wise, for the horns I cut out a circle and cut that into quarters. For the eyes I cut out a small circle and cut that in half (plus some tweaking to get that uneven shape). The mouth is kinda annoying bc you just gotta draft up the shape. And for the wings I have the shape here:

How you attach these is entirely up to you, but I've sewn on the tail and horns(didn't even need to stuff them) and hot glued the face features.

If you want to add his tail, you possibly could pull some pieces of the same yarn through the centre stitch on his back and braid it (or just cut it out of felt)

Star Wars DR

The Force is with her

A young Jedi, only 17, and she’s already the most powerful Yoda has ever come across. Able to bend the force to her will and manipulate her surroundings, even the ground itself.

Second In Command

Jett is a former storm trooper, the runt of the group. He looks different from the others. The reason? Foreign DNA was accidentally mixed into his cells during creation, therefore giving him a lighter skin color, curly hair, chocolate brown eyes, and causing him to be 18, both physically and mentally. He is a devoted lover to our young Jedi, and her proud sidekick.

The Ship

(Art not mine)

The SS Firefly, a better version of the Millennium Falcon. It’s natural form, yellow with black highlights. But, there’s a secret feature few know about. The ship can change colors, depending on certain factors like it’s surroundings and environmental factors.

The Lightsaber

A powerful Jedi needs a powerful lightsaber. Her choice, a sailor-moon hilt with a hybrid crystal. The hybrid crystal is one of a kind, giving the ability for the lightsaber to change color from pink to purple given the situation and the fighting style the user chooses.

The Droids

BB-B8, also known as Bait, is a BB-Astromech droid who accompanies our Jedi on her journeys. Then you have R2-7F, also known as Viola. She’s as smart as R2-D2 and even sassier.

The Wardrobe

The outfits our young Jedi wears the most. Fancy senate garb, her casual Jedi piece, a jacket look inspired by Han Solo, and Mandolorian armor she found in the trash and repaired to it’s former glory.

The End

And that’s all we known about our young Jedi so far. Oh, her name? No, we don’t even know her name. All we know is that she’s very powerful, and very dangerous. She’s come face to face with the dark side more than once and she’s won every time. So if you ever find yourself face to face with this Jedi in combat, surrender. It’s the only way you’ll make it out alive.

[wodimewoahtime]

if i had to equate the alnst characters to one of the six senses then it would be

mizi- touch

sua- scent

till- hearing

ivan- sight

luka- taste

hyuna- proprioception

REASONINGS!!!!

mizi: shes very touchy and hugs the people shes close to a lot, in sweet dream "you hug me as if nothing happened", her hand on the glass that connected with suas which bloomed into pink, please be next to me always, self soothing by hugging herself at the end of mizisua

sua- "you find me with your scent" "always be by my side" the scent of a flower, a clemantis aka the fragrant virgins bower, a white flower with vines, "hope bloomed in the abyss" a strong sweet almond like scent

till: music + listening without contributing, his r2 was sung by mizi (made with her voice in mind?), the only character that composes his own music, "the melody that filled the empty me"

ivan: staring + not being seen, looking back, "the red light in the black sorrow" "even if your cold words leaves scars beneath my eyes" "face to face we dance" do i even need to explain this one

luka: actually has a lot of art now where he has something in his mouth, his need for dominance (cannabalism), to consume the opponent on the stage, he takes up almost all the lyrics in ruler of my heart, he kisses the hand of the dead girl at the start of r5, luka trying to kiss hyuna through what seems to be force, he also nibbles on his sleeve in all in + tills hair in the cafe art, luka freak art with his fingers pulling at his mouth

hyuna: to know exactly where she is and how she stands as a human, the assurance of her own position that she gains from rebellion, she knows where stands without the reference of others around her (all in is about self love) getting up after falling down -----------------

Also to connect this to cure (cause im diseased)

tills lyrics in cure seem to have stuff about gazes when its usually given to ivan, "Dissolve me in your gaze" "read my soul" "in your gaze where im seen"

ivan also with hearing "even if your cold words carve scares beneath my eyes" "to quiet my fears" "sick of these nights to come to be engulfed in silence" "on your icy lips"

oh but till still has the line "to this everlasting melody" and ivan still has "face to face we dance"

its the part where they sing in a round without harmonizing so i think its something like how the way they love doesnt really ever align with eachother thats a classic part of ivantill

edit: post i'm talking about in the tags

[enlightenedrobot]

On Harry Potter Syndrome

Whenever there's a milquetoast protagonist surrounded by infinitely more interesting side characters and is easily overshadowed by their actual sidekicks, I call that "Harry Potter Syndrome" and tbh I think it should catch on. Here's some examples.

Fandom(!) Danny is so much more interesting, and tbh, a kid growing up with ghost hunting parents shoulda turned out a lot weirder. Perfect example of Harry Potter Syndrome.

I love you Sora. I love you and your simple/ clean mind. I love how you tear through eldritch abominations with the power of both Love and also blunt force trauma. I also love how you objectively have the least amount of personal trauma and drama out of all of the playable characters in the games you started and I hope the lovecraftian terror of the circumstances surrounding your story never truly register as anything other than a fun adventure to your untainted, rarely used twink brain.

And yet everyone else in the series including the fucking mouse has enough backstory and angst to fill up an entire library with journals of badly written emo poetry or better yet thirteen games with the audacity of pretending to be a trilogy.

Yes, Kingdom Hearts suffers from Harry Potter syndrome, but it's also proof that that might not necessarily be a bad thing.

You guys, Madoka is so good. I swear it's a lot more than just an edgy Magical Girl show. It has amazing art that makes use of mixed media in a really creative way. It's also dark and surreal and surprisingly reminiscent of movies like Donnie Darko and Carrie. It's also incredibly gay.

And Madoka is likable enough, I guess. But also... if I had to nitpick anything about the show, it's that she's also kinda sorta boring? I mean, it is kinda funny seeing an adorable pink haired teenager earnestly talk about desiring "more power". But still.

A New Hope is probably the movie that inspired thousands of other cases of Harry Potter Syndrome, including Harry Potter himself, though I feel the need to point out how deliberate it is with it.

Luke is the Protagonist of the movie, unambiguosly. That's him front and center of the poster, and he's the guy who follows the hero's journey and ultimately comes out looking like the hero in all of this. But he's also not the sole viewpoint character of the film, and I think it's pretty telling that the first third of the movie takes place from the POV of a pair of gay married robots.

Depending on the scene, we take on the POV of either Luke, R2-D2, C3PO, Han Solo, Tarkin, or Princess Leia. Of these characters Luke undeniably fills in the role of milquetoast hero, but George Lucas understood the power of a good ensemble cast from the movie's inception.

And finally

Let's face it, this movie suffers so hard from Harry Potter syndrome, the marketing guys just said "fuck it" and put Johnny Depp on the poster instead.

So, a few weeks ago I had a weird dream where I was inside a giant supermarket (like, the racks and displays were the size of a 20 stories building, and you had to climb over them to get the stuff you wanted). Why was I there? Because I was looking for a birthday gift for my best friend, and she wanted a pink R2 unit from Star Wars, that was named "ELEUTERIO" (it was LU30, like how we in Latam call R2D2, "ARTURITO").

I told the story to my best friend (she was at the time vacationing in Scotland), and had a big laugh. Fast forward a couple of weeks to her birthday, and of course my gift was making an Eleuterio illustration, that I ended up gifting her framed.

My latest Star Wars earrings are in! First, I’ve been wanting to do an updated Thrawn for a while for y’all, and I just love the detail on this fig. I also have him some wine-red for polished Czech glass beads to match his eyes.

And I’ve never had Dooku in the shop before! But he’s here now! The hilt of his lightsaber is exquisite! And I used the same red Czech glass beads on him that I do with most of my other Sith Lords in case you want to mix and match.

Previously the only Han Solo earrings I had in the shop were my Han and Leia pair. But if you’re looking for just Han, he’s here now! Han and Leia are also still available.

And I gave some little updates to Finn and Poe! These pairs now all have orange Czech glass hearts!

It was getting harder and harder to find the beads I’d been using for Jar Jar, so I gave him a little update with these pink Czech glass stars.

And finally I thought Max Rebo and R2-D2 deserved a little extra glitz, so they got a little Czech glass update as well.

I hope you love these! Let me know who else you’d like to see in the shop!

Shop is here! Love y’all!

Headcanons about chrissy and dustin relationship?

Oo. Another excellent prompt! Thanks 'nony.

I've seen some great fics linking these two and think it could be a really cute relationship honestly.

Dustin has a crush on Chrissy at first (who doesn't though, honestly?) so he blushes a lot and gets tongue-tied.

None of the younger kids really hang around with cheerleaders and it takes some time to trust that Chrissy wants to sit with them. Dustin though? Nah. He's 100% on board with Chrissy Cunningham invading their lives and welcomes her with open arms. He even saves her a seat next to him at the lunchtable.

When she asks him about D&D and his character, man, he gets INTO IT. He sits with Chrissy for a full two hours going into detail about different races, classes, lore. He kind of expects her to laugh at him, but Chrissy really loves his enthusiasm. He even offers to help her make her own build (but Eddie's already got this covered).

Chrissy loves the way Eddie protects Dustin, and the way he looks up to Eddie. It makes her fall for Eddie all the more (she also loves the competition between him and Steve - what neither of them know is Chrissy soon becomes Dustin's OG babysitter)

She finds herself keeping an eye out for him at school and when she hears one of the jocks making fun of his D&D book? Well, she stands up for him. She laughs when Dustin flings his arm around her shoulder after and lets them swagger away (Eddie watches and snorts into his shoulder).

(when she finds Dustin upset when one of the bullies tears up his character sheet, she hugs him so hard and tells him he's the best and to never change).

Chrissy gets the cold shoulder from her so-called friends when she starts picking Hellfire more and more and this really gets her down. If Eddie isn't around to cheer her up, then Dustin steps up to the plate and does his best to make her smile and laugh (Chrissy kisses his cheek the first time he does this and Eddie later pulls him into a giant hug).

Chrissy meets Suzie and yeah, she's hella' smart and cool. Chrissy reminds Dustin about buying candy, opening doors, reminding him to get a Valentines Day card. She even tried combing his hair. She tries really hard not to be overbearing but she's a cheerleader for a reason, right?

He sort of reminds her of her own brother - or rather, what her brother could be like if free from her parents influence. Dustin is really playful with her and not afraid of breaking her (like others sometimes do). He treats her like one of the gang.

Dustin picks up on Eddie's feelings pretty quickly and is the one to point out his 'soft eyes' whenever Chrissy is around. He also notices how Chrissy gets all pink and fluttery when Eddie looks her way. He's a Hellcheer #1 fan.

(though it's seriously not fair he never gets to pick the music in Eddie's van but he lets Chrissy pick whatever she wants - Chrissy also gets to ride shotgun)

He notices she doesn't eat much but doesn't really get the why (that's not his place) - but he always offers her his spare snacks and jelly sandwich. Sometimes she accepts and says 'thanks' really quietly. Chrissy starts bringing snacks to Hellfire Club and this is all good in Dustin's book.

He introduces her to Star Wars and she starts calling him 'R2' because yeah, he's the most useful person to have around and (usually) saves the day. Dustin fucking beams when she does this. They start having little inside jokes. He calls her Daphne from Scooby Doo - but only jokingly - he knows she's no damsel anymore.

During the battle with Vecna? He watches Chrissy's back although he pretends not to. She's comforted by him at her side and they are a good team. He knows how important Chrissy is to Eddie (and to him) and doesn't want her to get hurt.

Coming to Harvest Moon from Stardew Valley is certainly an interesting experience.

Trying out 'Tale of Two Towns'. Never played any Harvest Moon titles before now, but I've got a couple hundred Stardew hours under my belt.

I'm tickled pink that you can accost the wildlife. It's just so funny being able to snatch up a random duck from the river and then yeet it at a bear while it (the duck) is busy making anger emotes at you. 🤣

I'm sad you can't steal the wildlife though. Can't put a duck in my pocket. 😭

But I can put a boulder as big as my oversized chibi head into my pocket just fine. I guess boulders don't fight back as hard as waterfowl do...

I hit "save draft" on this post, and THIS is the very first thing I see on my dash. How serendipitous. 🤣

It's so funny that the farmer responds to all dialogue with a musical note. My man out here whistling and beeping like R2-D2. Non-verbal King.

Only a single turnip seed to start my farming career with. At least they gave me a ripe field to harvest right off the bat...

But I don't get paid from the shipping bin right away, so I have no cash to buy seeds. Probably should have tried to sell my crops directly to a store. Is that possible I wonder...

I enjoy how much sheer mobility this farmer has. Goes up and down these mountains leaping over every obstacle like he's Super Mario

Catching lots of insects on my walk. Wonder if I can sell them in the shipping bin... 🤔

Found bamboo. Wonder if I can feed a wild panda with it... 🤔

I leveled up via picking up grasshoppers and putting them into my pocket 😂

Haha, I can sell all of the insects I picked up, and the fish and crabs I caught with my bare hands. Excellent!

Ah! So all my other starter seeds were just in the storage chest! Hooray!

Did leveling up actually do anything to my character? Do I have statistics or something? 🤔

The goddess of vegetables: "you're now on a Mission From God to win the monthly cooking competition!"

Grrr. There are message board requests for literally every single thing I gathered on the mountain yesterday and then shipped for cash... 🤦🏻‍♂️

Oh well, at least I got $3k out of it and can put that cash towards seeds...

The seed shop is closed on Tuesdays... Eat a bag of dicks, old man... 😒

Dr Ayame is a dominatrix.

Having the Town Hall give you directions to different people's houses is a feature I FUCKING LOVE!

Oh okay wow, fertilizers do not work how I expected!

Found some honeycomb. It says to "put it into a hive to get honey". Where do I get a hive from? 🤔

I really really really REALLY wish my stupid farmer would stop reeling in shock every time I make him do hard work. Stop interrupting my furrows you stupid piece of shit!
