why are they batshit insane

[nonbinarylesbianherb]

part of me wants to read the wheel of time books, but I also know they have significantly less lesbianism and women being the main focus than the show adaptation 😞😞

Sometimes in video game when you take control over establish character it feels like you are in control now, you can shape their life however you want, you can completely destroy it and they can do nothing about!

Then there are games as kingdom come deliverance when no matter how peaceful gameplay ypu are trying to have Henry will volunteer himself absolutely unprompted to do whatever bullshit he wants. And it does not matter how normal his dialogue can look he will add there some absolutely unnecessary remark because he loves speaking first and thinking later.

You are *not* the one dragging Henry in situations. Henry is the one dragging *you* in them.

Can I just say. I have been Obsessed with this scene since I saw it. Just. How is THIS your first reaction.

Rook doesn't even know the guy, and they still scream at that dragon to save his ass. I don't know what the plan was there, and more than that, I suspect there WAS no plan. They saw someone about to die and they Did Something About It. Even if it was so, so stupid to do. And they Know that. And they do it anyway. I don't think I can quite put into words just how much I love this bit of characterization.

Truly the character of all time 🙏

(also, on another note, them going ✋ at their companions while doing it reminded me of that one thing drivers sometimes do when they throw out a hand to keep someone/something from flying off the passenger seat when they brake too hard)

Seeing takes that Rook is “more realistic and relatable”……..I need to hold my tongue because my first thought was way too mean 😅

Thinking how Lane’s descriptor of Ethan being a Gambler sticking for the rest of the franchise

Random old photo from my FOURTH play-through of Reload ( As of this post I'm at November) but look at this Minato characterization.

What do you mean the … are in front, something that usually indicates feelings of sadness or contemplation and are very rare. What do you mean that in this bunker that includes references to some sort of war in the past and a letter of a man asking only the best for his wife and child, Minato finds a skeleton hidden away that presumably died alone on a bedframe. What do you mean more then anything he thinks that this decades old bony figure was someone once upon a time.

What do you mean this implies Minato sees death as taking away your identity and the things you've gone through and that makes him feel something, the guy who at this point in the game still bottles up every single one of his feelings on anything.

pouring one out for luo binghe in my disciple SQQ fic, poor guy has taken a backseat here. we're nearly 30k words deep and he hasn't even shown his face once. it'll be much longer before he even actually talks to Shen Qingqiu.

(i say im pouring one out but in reality im sitting in my director's chair chewing on a cigar and wearing a beret as he tearily and unsuccessfully pleads with me for more scenes with Shen Qingqiu)

Guys, ghosties, please keep the tr!BBH theories coming because I for one cannot figure out what the fudge is happening on my own unless someone does it first lmao. Let's be real though, the muffin man himself ain't gonna reveal anything anytime soon so maybe we should all just do a coin flip. Heads says he rejected heaven's gates and became a demon gremlin again, tails says he didn't reject heaven and is carrying out some kind of divine mission- or maybe it won't even matter because he's actually a secret third option we don't even have the clues to understand- *explodes*

Sometimes you spend ten years of your life working on something and it becomes the thing you're known for forever after that, and other times you spend ten years working on something only for it to lapse into total obscurity, and the worst part is that it has almost nothing to do with how good it was or how well-spent that ten years was.

I really like Felix’s and Kidd’s dynamic I could see them getting closer in future games (romanticly or platonically). They are very ‘evil dumb but charismatic guy with a right hand man who makes sure his plans work kinda like Megatron and Soundwave.

Also I want to see Bob and Mrs applegate get married

Confession #25
