Ooh, it's my time to shine!
The first three lines are from Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time
The next couple are from Mario vs Donkey Kong for the GBA
Then there's the door exhaustion that's unused from Super Mario Sunshine.
There are also a few lines from Mario teaches Typing.
I think that last one is in the MvDK set is Mario thanking the artists?
There's probably a few that I missed, but those are the ones I recognized.
Finally, my nerdy knowledge comes in handy!
my favorite and arguably the best of mario's voice lines. he is soooo sweet! :]
#I swear I'm living for this#aaahh#free serotonin#I could listen to this for hours#screw people who say that Mario's voice would be grating for an entire movie#“That's my impression of American advertising” is so funny I love it#him singing sounds pretty good too ngl#It's so surreal to hear him talk in full sentences compared to small voice clips#I'm here for it#super mario#mario#voice acting#voice clips#unused voice clips#super mario brothers#super mario bros#video#me being nerdy#random nerd stuff#charles martinet

One thing I like about DMC is the parallels they sneak in where at first you may not think it is...but the more you think about it...
Like the scene in 3 with Arkham is essentially Vergil's first big footsteps into hunting for his father's power years later after the tragedy he endured. He's looking for a way to grab that power, and here comes Arkham to begin to properly set him on the path that builds up the domino effect that THEN sets up the rest of the suffering he has to endure. From his clash with his twin, to his defeat, then his attempted clash with Mundus that leads into his enslavement and weakening that sets the stage for DMC5 with the birth of V and Urizen.
Then, in Visions of V, the climax has it where V embraces Urizen and encounters essentially the form of his fears and weakness as his younger self. Of course, V is met with immediate act of aggression through instinct of self defense by his younger manifestation but he still is prompted to not show his special book to return to him, but also remind him that 'Power alone is not enough'.
That line alone has me thinking like....wow. A complete opposite to the context of the moment with Arkham, where there's the talk about power and the desire for it. The fact that its basically himself on the other side of his own sword in VoV telling him that is, to me, such an interesting display of character growth. I don't know if that moment in VoV was meant to reference the Arkham convo in 3, but I like to believe it was. Its so alike, that it'd be weird if it wasn't to me.
Here's another cheeky one I like too, by the way.
The very night that Vergil reclaims Yamato and heads home to split himself into V and Urizen has a full moon. JUST like the very night when Vergil first defeated Dante that would eventually lead into the escalation of 3's plot and even having an ironic callback in 5 that would lead into Dante unlocking his Sin Devil Trigger.
One's a moment of victory over his twin brother, asserting his power. The other? A moment of reflection of losses that haunt him to this day, reminding him of the weakness he's desperately trying to chase away. The said desperation that peaks his desire for power and pushes him to believe abandoning his humanity is a benefit.
Of course, these thoughts still haunts him even as V (and especially Urizen, but I've mentioned that before) to the point where he reflects over it a few times. I often talk about these moment in VoV, but its just...man. One of the best things we got for DMC. A good addition for Vergil's character and essentially the icing ontop of the cake for 5 alongside the Before the Nightmare novel. There's several things it calls back to for Vergil's journey subtle or not. I hope we get more content like it in the future (maybe even have VoV localized officially), alongside games of course.
#devil may cry#dmc#leo's dmc analysis#I feel like I'm a nerd that should be shoved in the locker for how much I talk about VoV#tbf I would deserve it but it'd also be worth it#Graaaah I love Vergil as a character and the subtle refs they sneak in generally!!!#I'll prob talk more about the 3 manga and 1 prequel novel when the netflix series comes out#so bare with me abit longer-#meanwhile I'll have other small stuff between random yaps lmao

I still love the opening to Black Widow so much. It's so powerful and it does such a good job of conveying the trauma Natasha endured while she was exploited into being a child soldier. It's heartbreaking, and the use of the "Smells Like Teen Spirit" cover was a fucking brilliant commentary on the MCU fandom at large and of modern day parenting--

There are worse things than your kids seeing a sex scene or a man in a dress or seeing fake bloodshed in a superhero movie. That is what it is saying. It's hauntingly beautiful and brutally honest, and that's why I just laugh whenever some movie snob says Marvel movies have no point.
Because Marvel movies do have a point -- you're just too busy being pretentious to pick up on it.

The origin of Sifo's hair loopies?
"Jo, what are you doing?," Sifo tried to peer at her busy fingers doing... something with a section of hair at the side of his forehead.
"Hush, hold still." She sent him a cautionary jab over the Force, concentrated solely on her little project. "I just learned how to do this, so don't fuck this up."
What 'this' was got revealed to Sifo-Dyas about half an hour later as he peered curiously into a reflective bit of a spoon (due to grievous lack of mirrors in the Archives). He tilted his head, shaking it a bit, the movement sending Jocasta's hairdresserial masterworks (?) swaying.
"And what are they?," he asked again, looking at his very proud looking friend.
"It's a Knight-braid," Jocasta said proudly, "I learned about them when I visited Jedha. Apparently they fell out of fashion already back in Grandmaster Sunrider's time, but there's still records of how to do them."
Sifo looked back into the spoon. Shook the braids some more. "Knight braids, huh," he murmured, "I've never heard of those. You sure that was a real thing that existed?"
She shrugged, already going back to her half-finished kaf she'd gotten before their little pause mid mission-prep. It must have been ice cold by now, Sifo would never understand how she could still drink it like that.
"Does it matter if they did?," she quipped back, before downing the contents of the cup. "They're cute and they suit you. Way better than that stupid beard Yan has been growing out."
Oh, so this was about the beard.
Sifo should have known.
"Maybe if it grows long enough you can braid that too?," he couldn't help but tease her, "You know, get some old traditions up and going again? Maybe start a new trend while you're at it?"
All he got was a look that could have shock-frozen Mustafar twice over. "Do not," she mocked throwing the kf cup at him, "even joke about that, Sifo. I'd rather personally shave down Master Tyvokka before touching that... thing."
Sifo laughed, fingers already reaching to play with the new braids. They were fun. "Oh, don't act like that. You can't fault him for trying to hide his babyface. There's been talks of him getting offered a Council Seat, you know. He's been stressing out over it all month."
"And his solutions to that was to grow a beard over it?" Jocasta sounded dubious. "I don't know. Sounds like a case for the mind healer to me."
"Oh shut it," he flicked her though the Force, "I think it looks stately."
"Of course you do." Her defiant murmur was barely audible, buried behind the datapad she'd pulled out. "Suckup."
"Not everyone is on a crusade against all facial hair like you are," Sifo singsonged happily, ignoring her dramatic mood (it was mostly an act anyways). "A bit of self expression won't do our dear Yan any harm."
Jocasta's face darkened further. "Not him maybe, but just see how you'll feel about it when it gives you beard-burn. That shit sucks."
Sifo snickered. "Advice taken."
"I'm serious, Sy."
"And I'll keep it in mind, Jo." He scooted over to her, flinging one of the newly installed braids against her cheek. "Plus, you've given me the weapons to defend myself now, haven't you?"
With an annoyed groan, Jocasta simply reached out, quick as lightning, and grabbed Sy's entire face, pushing him away. "Stop that you little kriffer," she complained, "I'm already regretting this, just so you know."
Sifo let himself be pushed away. Then he waited a few moments, before immediately diving back in, tackling his smaller friend in a hug. "Nahh," he said happily, rubing his face against her side, "You love me. You love the braids. Show me how to do them myself?"
"You're gonna keep them?," she asked, peering down on him. It was evident that she was flattered by the idea. Flattered that he'd liked them.
Sifo grinned up at her. "Of course. As I said, I gotta be able to beat back Yan's beard-attacks, don't I."
"Hmm." She looked off, clearly fighting down a smile. "I'll see what I can do."
#lol i wasn't sure if this was a prompt or not#but i took it as one bc i had a sudden epiphany#tbh ive thought about the origin of the loopies before#and theres many ideas ive been toying with#but them being smt that my favorite history nerd jocasta dug out from somewhere and then just installed on him is my fave one#sometimes you gotta let your friends do stuff to your hair#random boli thoughts#star wars#jocasta nu#sifo dyas#me writing#answering asks#⛏️⛏️⛏️#also yes i hc jocasta to be an absolute beard hater#why? because my mom is and it's a constant source of jokes in my family

i have dark hair which i have often cut short and big black-framed glasses so over the years it hasnt been uncommon for randos to shout "harry potter!" at me in the street. ESPECIALLY when i was in my cloak phase bc well duh. anyway one time id been to a viking market w some friends during my cloak phase and i bought this really cool.. well i don't know anything about weapons i still don't know if shes a very long dagger or a very short sword. but something like that. and then we had to get the bus back into the city centre and walk to my flat. and i obviously didnt want to carry the sword or whatever in my hand because that's weird and will probably get you arrested. so i hooked it into my belt, where it was naturally concealed under my cloak. u can probably see where this is going. anyway some guys are walking nearby and drifting towards us in such a way with quiet chatter and giggles that we gather they r probably making fun of us. and as they are a little behind us this one guy darts ahead from his two buddies and comes up behind me and tries to startle me by shouting "harry potter!" at me. and he got SO close up behind me he got like RIGHT up behind me. so like before the words have even finished leaving his mouth i whip round and pull this sword or dagger or whatever from under my cloak and hold it right up to his face/neck AND IT WAS SHEATHED I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH THIS WAS NOT AN ACTUAL NAKED SHARP DANGEROUS WEAPON BEING HELD UP TO A MAN IT WAS SECURELY SHEATHED IT WAS THE WHOLE TIME I DID NOT REMOVE IT FROM THE SHEATH I PULLED IT OUT STILL ABSOLUTELY WITHIN THE SHEATH WHICH WAS MADE OF PLASTIC IT WAS BASICALLY JUST HOLDING UP A PIECE OF PLASTIC IN THE SHAPE OF A SWORD THE BLADE WAS NEVER EXPOSED AT ALL ! but the sheath was silvery and shiny and it all happened very fast so of course he just simply jumped out of his fucking skin. and was like doubled over almost having a panic attack fighting for breath while his friends laughed at him. because for a little half a second there i think that man really truly thought he was going to die. anyway thanks for coming to storytime with hal thats one of the funnest things i ever did
#and that's why u should never try to bully nerds.#bc a lot of nerdy stuff does actually involve random weaponry#and hey u never know.#and youre going to look soooo dumb if u get got by some teen in a fucking cloak

everyone always circles the furthest ulnar fingers on Ford's x-rays but given the shape of his hands I think he has central polydactyly, not ulnar/postaxial
#ford pines#random#I hope I'm using that correctly it took me forever to find the proper hand terms#I remember medial/lateral and stuff from an old anatomy class but I can never remember which way the hands face in the standard model#nerd shit#don't mind me

I was never fond of the idea of Vilgaxia so I like to imagine this is the dynamic between Vilgax and his homeworld
he’s increasingly forbidden from coming back home since every horrible thing he does makes them look bad and he’s like “what makes you think I want to come back”
#the first guy isn't anyone really#just the theoretical random person who would be in charge if it wasn't vilgax like in UAF#nerd stuff#my art#scarletta doodles#ben 10#vilgax#chimera sui generis

Every time I remember that one video, I can't help but imagine theater student Steve explaining to Robin his idea for a new show.
Steve: It's called Barrel Aged Cock. It's a story about my dick as told by my dick.
Robin: What the hell Steve?!
Billy: No. I think he's on to something. Respect the process.

kills me inside every time people accuse tubbo of being a tory despite the fact he never was
he has had shitty opinions but he wanst a tory
a tory is someone who supports the conservative party in the UK. Some people who don't know what it means decide to use it as just a bigot. Tories are bigots but not all bigots are tories
IN GENERAL a political party will have ideas regarding social stuff, economic stuff, foreign policy and more. You cant just randomly give someone a label based on their social opinions isnce htere are countless political movements with overlapping ideals
like if people want to (justifyingly) criticize some shit hes said in the past at least use correct terms and quote it properly
#tubbo#twitter discourse#neg#The dumbass calling him a tory on twitter recently decided to contineu and the arguments are so dumb#like apparently he once said hed rather have space travel developement than have agricultural developement#which i 1000000% bet was just a random comment made because hes a fucking nerd and space travel is cool and agriculture isnt#but that person decided to go and extrapolate it to he thinks space travel is more important than feeding homeless people????#wildest shit ive ever seen#IDK i see hes said dumb shit and im not surprisde since likes hes a cis white young dude from a well off family in south england#but he has shown growth and far mroe positive stuff than negative#This man could NEVER call himself a Hasan fan (and has for a long time) if he was a fucking Tory

I may come off as a nerd for saying this but screw it, I don't care.
I find it entertaining that localization has screwed over King Boo not once but two times.
In Super Mario Sunshine, there's a localization error in the U.S. His name in Japanese is really "Boss Boo".
Then in Super Mario 64 DS, he mistakenly calls himself "Big Boo" instead of King Boo.
Idk I just find it funny. All this to say that localization hates King Boo and it's caused some confusion amongst players.
