Tsukumo Yuki stated that Satoru's type was someone who could understand him so would Shiki count as one of the few who can? 🤔🤔🤔

Technically yes, although the relationship between Satoru is closer to that of siblings than anything romantic.

Rewatching FT and noticing that Happy is like. SUPER knowledgeable about a lot of things guild and magic related. He's like the go to encyclopedia for wizard inquiries and he's just a tiny little guy. I wonder if he actually takes time to study all this stuff or if he's just picked up on a lot of it from being around the guild so much 🤔 Thinking about Happy and Levy cooped up in the library reading stuff together makes me really soft. Autism buddies

“What if it’s just all one big party trick that never adds up to anything?” the way Julia’s voice chokes up repeating what Quentin said that she fears is true s1 Quentin when I catch you-

[pusangkambing]

Honestly just massive fucking props to the admins for putting this together. They seamlessly gave what both the audience and charlie wanted and in quite literally the most horrifying way possible.

Like i am genuinely so fucking impressed by how perfectly this fits the narrative thats been set up with the codes. And the fact that charlie knew none of it???? INSANE

It fits so perfectly with q!charlie's lore too! Like the fact that he has still isnt over flippa's death, he doesnt know whats been happening with the codes, and he is arguably the most emotionally vulnerable man in the server right now

JUST SJEUSEUD ITS PERFECT I LOVE IT SO MUCH

AND ALSO RHEY DID THIS ON HIS BIRTHDAY! FUCJING CRAZY

[the-eldritch-it-gay]

oh the other week or smth there was like a team building question at work of like "if you could swap places with someone on the team, who would you do it with" right and it was good because basically everyone talked about like "I would want to be in x role because everyone in x role is so amazing and does amazing work that's so important etc etc" so you know it allowed for a lot of appreciation for everyone else's position, right.

people in the team basically talked about nearly every role, some people wanted to try backend, others frontend, some people design, others management, etc etc. there was in fact, only one role that no one brought up or mentioned wanting to do for a day. which was QA. I'm not the only QA there's a couple of us, some of which are really well liked and respected but not a single person in the entire team wanted to even hypothetically do QA. You would think maybe just like, statistically one person on the team would say testing/qa, and yet.

the autism allegations keep piling up

[solidwater05]

Lamentations lyrical analysis/rambling because I am not normal about it

Redefine how to feel human

We know Fayrouz is in denial about her mistakes, so being faced with the reality that Mariyam and Tamari are very close to human, with thoughts and feelings, hits pretty hard.

Also, automata has two definitions:

a moving mechanical device made in imitation of a human being.

used in comparisons to refer to a person who seems to act in a mechanical or unemotional way.

The first one fits the siblings, the second one fits Fayrouz. 'How to feel human' has to be redefined because her androids are more human than she is

Redefine my kindness

Redefine what’s wrong, what’s right

So you don’t test my patience

Still about denial, she'll come up with so many reasons why she's not a bad person

Don’t expect an easy life and

Don’t expect my mercy

She's cold and, well, I wouldn't describe her as merciless, but she's not particularly merciful. I also feel like this is what she indirectly communicated to Mariyam after Tamari ran away because he expected all that.

Hold your breath and walk on ice

For any less would hurt me

This might mean that she's also very fragile, and 1- anything going against her plans is wrong because she's controlling, and 2- she's been hurt before and every time it happens it hurts more

Restarting, rebooting null programs

Running, debugging their brains

Forging and sorting successes

Things will never be the same

I think this is just emphasizing the clinical tone, but also how she's not the same as she was before. This could be that she's changed inside even if her cold attitude remained the same, or that she developed that attitude after everything that happened? I don't think so but eh, it's still possible

Tear apart, break the neglected

Carelessness widens the fault

'The neglected' are her ex-husband and the siblings, but she 'tore them appart' unintentionally and/or unconsciously, which from her point of view makes it even worse

Suppressing relapsed indignation

I just think she suppresses her feelings because she's not ready to deal with them and everything they imply

Rising steam through superheated bolts

Idk what this means

I’m only working smart

Tear out a broken heart

Rewire, take it higher than we’ve ever been

Again, repressing her emotions so they don't interfere with her work (also, repressing that Tamari running away hurt her so she could still work on Mariyam)

A land unknown, to bring her home a perfect twin

This one puzzles me. The 'perfect twin' is Mariyam, but why does she say 'her home' if obviously Mariyam didn't exist before being created? Is Fayrouz talking about herself in the third person for some reason?? But then I don't see why it'd say 'twin'

Either way, the point is that Mariyam was supposed to be perfect

Perfection you could’ve never been

This is both about her ex-husband and Tamari, but I think it's specifically comparing Mariyam and Tamari and how Mariyam was everything that Tamari 'could have never been', maybe because he reminded Fayrouz of her ex-husband so she's projecting all her negative feelings about him on them after they ran away

Read it and weep

Pay attention to the finer print

'Finer print' means details not immediately obvious, like how she hurt her family. She says she should have payed attention to it because she keeps making mistakes that make everything worse, but she only notices them looking back

Read it and weep

We’ll recreate a scarlet sin

Not sure what this is supposed to mean. Perhaps it's related to her neglect?

Forging a stronger core

That’s the price of war

Another confusing one. It makes me think of reluctantly becoming stronger because of pain, while it would be preferable to not be in pain at all

Brace for the fate you’ll face

For following the path you’ve paved

This just means 'you had it coming'

STOP

You don’t know what I’ve been through

DON’T YOU DARE FORGET

Your roots are where I’ve planted you

IN MY ETERNAL DEBT

Fayrouz, possibly talking to Mariyam (or even Tamari) when they ran away, justifying her actions because she's been through a lot, and because they wouldn't exist without her, so they owe her everything

Reflections of the past

I see him in your faces

I still wonder why

He never came back that day

The reason why she treated the siblings like that is because they remind her of her ex-husband. (Bonus: the instrumental for the line 'he never came back that day' is very similar to the one for 'now you're all alone' in EWN. Fayrouz is all alone now)

My hands are filthy as can be

Beneath the skin, tarnished by rogue machinery

Meaning that she has done many bad things, and she tries to hide them, but Mariyam and Tamari running away 'tarnish' her cover and change her to the point it's impossible to hide anything

My stomach’s churning, throwing up my grief

Anatomizing your synthetic humanity

And we're back to the very first line! She's still thinking about how the concept of 'humanity' is more complex than she thought at first, and this time, she realized that it means that Mariyam and Tamari are also human and have lives, much like herself and her ex-husband

Failed to recognize warning signs

And I let it happen thrice

You’re once more lead astray

Self explanatory, she never realized that there was anything wrong until her ex-husband, Tamari and Mariyam left.

Something I’ve never understood

The question I’ve overlooked

Am I the one to blame?

And she never understood why it kept happening, until she realized that it was her fault. She had been running from this fact for so long but it only made everything worse

do u have any plans on continuing ur other fics that aren't zenith of stars?

Yes, but zenith of stars is the priority.

anyway don’t send your kids to daycares that have anything about a consent order or legal resolutions in general on the licensing website because that means they fucked up critical things like ratios or behavior management or basic health and safety in front of the state multiple times

Hi-Fi Rush QA-1mil hitless guide

Are you playing Hi-Fi, and wondering how to beat this guy hitless well here’s how!

Damaging: The tactic is to abuse peppermint and have her on field constantly, when QA’s hands fall use all assist and use beat hits and or any high power special you have (hibiki, overdrive slash, cat attack etc).

Dodging: for this double jump and dash over the hand swipes and lasers later on. DO NOT BREAK HIS FACE, if you are not good at jump dodging at the right time then this will cause you trouble if you’re going for hitless so focusing on damage is the best

I will be making more hitless guides for the later bosses as I beat them! If this helps anyone happy to help
