#real life npc

I wanna be a tutorial giver. Like just go up to people in public who are clearly tourists and new to [my city] and just be like

"To take a photograph, select your camera from the weapon wheel by holding the left trigger and moving the left directional stick. Then, aim at your subject using the right directional stick, and press the A button to take a photograph! Photos will be stored in the section of the inventory menu labelled 'Photos' which you can access at any time by pressing the start button and navigating using the left and right bumpers."

listening to the skyrim soundtrack on my headset at work and just living that npc lifestyle.

(not a complete list) as a background character in a show, here is some of the things i’ve talked about that you won’t hear;

a dog eating a lemon (very cute we also side eyed the mc)

putting out cigarettes in a meatloaf

tests (show is a high school series)

teacher who is getting a divorce

pedo teacher

the fact that i have pet rats, and one rat bite my toe

“what the fuck are we suppose to do?”

“did we miss our cue?”

“i think i looked in the camera”

the diversity corner (trans guy, trans girl and chinese girl)

random history facts i made up

how they don’t know how kids act

these people have probably never been to a school

how awkward it is

just genuinely ranting over random shit

This past week I took part in a murder mystery ball for one of my uni’s societies, I was acting in the cast as one of the suspects. As fun and stressful as it was, truly I was able to experience what it’s like to be an NPC in a video game or TTRPG. The guests just go up to you, ask if your xyz and just ask a million questions. Oftentimes I just got straight up asked if I murdered the victim. But really it was like being an NPC in a video game where the guests press X to ask certain questions. I think everyone that likes acting and improv should definitely do this if the opportunity comes to light.

Yesterday I had the most "this is a simulation" moment ever because as i went out of the station I saw a bald man with a can of beer walking randomly, I passed a few streets and out of the blue another man who looked a lot like the one before but with different clothes and a beer from another brand passed ... Like they were two NPC!! Literally!

I really want to get into Unicorn Overlord because that prologue slaps and it sounds like an interesting gameplay experience

but

the designs are just...

Camel toes, battle thongs and bouncing boobies that would straight up be from some of the worst FEH alts, furry baits (forget the sniddies, we have foxtits and... owl boobs...) and leg art that would make Duo!Doro look tame in comparaison.

What to do...

Ok but what if Ephemer’s and Player’s hearts are like literally connected (really really literally)

Maybe like, small pieces of each other heart being traded, or i guess other magical ways

So if the theory of Sora being the third reincarnation of the player.. (even tho I don’t like this theory cause both deserves to have their heart, specifically Sora with his heart hotel moments)

Maybe thats how Ephemer soul showed up in KH3? Cause the connection to player that stayed within Sora, this theory pretty common right?

And if thats works one way, could also go the other way no?

Ephemer summoning the Player’s soul with the hearts connection. Maybe even unintentionally, suddenly poof the player is there as a ghost!

Sounds like interesting angst. Maybe thats would be also like.. why the player took pretty long to reincarnated to missing link area cause Ephemer was still around so Player’s soul tied up to his heart.

i once had an anti tell me to stop sexualizing their trauma on a story i wrote that was a word for word retelling of my own actual trauma but with names changed and its been 2 years and i still cant stop thinking about that

Ah, yeah... Unfortunately a non-insignificant number of antishippers seem to genuinely believe they own the concept of trauma, so any story they read that they believe to be portrayed in a romanticized or sexualized light therefore must be romanticizing/sexualizing their trauma specifically.

I couldn't tell you the amount of times I've gotten the "stop sexualizing my trauma!!!!!!" or adjacent comments from antishippers that universally garner a response that basically boils down to

Like, bitch! I'm talking about my trauma! I literally did not even know you existed until you fucking commented!

DA4 not having to touch slavery with their grey morality hands is a huge dub

hey! i'm still thinking a lot about the minecraft movie and how much potential there is to take the plot in just about any direction - i understand why it would be impractical at best to try and make a film adaptation of the fallen kingdom saga, but that would probably be my favorite...

all this to say: i would love to see other people's takes on potential plots! i think it's actually kind of a lovely way to capture different people's relationships to the game - so reblog this and add (on the post or in the tags) any ideas you feel strongly about? :0
