cut content that's canon in my heart

Kalé's questline (we were ROBBED)

Rykard's bisexuality

Radahn's cat

Mohg yelling SEX

Godfrey as an interactable character (why did they cut that?)

[burnthybread]

my theory is that the cost Sora paid to use the power of waking was his capital c Connection with riku and that’ll be shown in his inability to summon his half of the gayblade

*casts arms to the sky and lets out a scream full of rage* LOCALISAAATION TEEEEEEEEEAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You've heard of discovering obscure characters, now get ready for.... characters that never existed!

......why on EARTH they translated it as brother?

On the good news, the mystery is finally solved:

There seems to be a correlation between him abandoning his calling as an Elden Lord (with full vitriol for the Two Fingers, that do claim to act upon Greater Will) and losing his Maiden, right? Well,

The 友 (tomo) is gender-neutral! AND 遺志 (ishi) means "dying will" or "wishes of the person who passed away" and so on (anyone up remembering this from when I posted about Bloodborne? 👀). So, he rebels in the name of a deceased friend. That was his maiden. It was his maiden all along.

I'd make bank that Alito's closet has a variety of full-dress Waffen-SS uniforms (alongside some whips, chains, and gags).

hello I Adore bastille may you share her lore with us please

here's a lil primer on her!

Lore-wise she's a gruff, brick shithouse with a soft center, disillusioned by the two fingers but put off by Varre and the cult of blood, who found herself at Volcano Manor and felt the rhetoric of Tanith and Bernahl stir her anger properly. She's probably closest to Bernahl in temperament, understanding that hunting other tarnished is Not Great but the world is dying all around her So.

Game-Wise she was a prisoner bc this is my first fromsoft game and i was leaning on magic (i say "magic" i mean glintstone blade) while i learned the game. around liurnia/rennala i kind of had a better handle on it and respecced to a strength build to follow my desire to wield fuck off huge colossal weapons.

“Days like today are the whole reason right-wing billionaires have spent years, and billions of dollars, rigging the Supreme Court.”

The linked article from the tweet goes in depth exploring Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, and the constitutionality of whether or not it is appropriate to use the Insurrection Clause against Trump. But that analysis completely misses the point: Ginni Thomas was (and still is) herself an integral part of the January 6th Insurrection, and as such, Clarence Thomas should not be allowed to rule on the case. In a just world, Clarence Thomas would recuse himself, or there would be some mechanism to force his recusal.

At any rate, prepare to be disappointed. I listened to the arguments live, and it sure sounds like even the “liberal” justices were in agreement with the conservatives appointed by Trump; that Colorado overstepped its authority — I vehemently disagree with that. In light of Trump’s words + actions leading up to the Insurrection, Colorado absolutely made the right call. Republicans always like to whine about “states rights” until they don’t like what the state wants to do, like protecting a person’s right to choose abortion.

That all said, begrudgingly, I dO understand the “why��� behind what I think their decision will be: imagine an America where the so-called “former” Confederate States of the south were routinely removing the Democratic candidates from their state ballots. Not that this Colorado decision will stop them from trying to do so anyway, but that would be total anarchy (and not the good kind).

On the bright side, if Colorado loses this case, as I think they will, there is still enough time left for them to remove Trump from their ballot but this time, proactively use whatever arguments SCOTUS used against them. But admittedly, that’s a long shot.

Bringing it back home though, the ever germane question isn’t if Colorado was right - the relevant question here is if Clarence Thomas should have recused himself. In a more just timeline, he and other biased justices would willingly recuse themselves or be forcibly removed from cases where they have obvious conflicts of interest. Almost every consideration after the question of recusal is irrelevant.

Leon, how does Honey ask for walks? Bet it's cute!

Your right! It is cute! In fact it’s funny you mention this, she’s asking for a walk right now.

Hold on I’ll get a photo.

She brings me her leash and looks at me until we go out.

Mikey says it’s more like she walks me, then me walking her.

This poll is a two-parter, the poll for characters still in there / met in there directly / more relevant to it is here ( x )

I decided to still round up the results not excluding obscure characters and it is exactly 12 variants now, though I am fully aware at least 3 of these don't offer anything to work with.. though if you do have cool headcanons on super obscure ones of this list feel free to bonk me on the head with a rolled newspaper XD

Fun fact about N’s character theme: it’s based on prime numbers! I don’t know enough about music theory to tell you exactly how, but it’s neat that the composer took his mathematical affinity into account -moon

ya!!!! that’s what i was talking about w the arpeggios. that’s a detail i think is great fs….

don’t get me wrong it wouldn’t surprise me at all if n’s battle theme was some masterpiece of musical composition on a purely technical level that i don’t get because i don’t understand complex math and music theory terms. i tried researching the meanings behind his name and just exploded. i mean look at this. i do not go there

like i’m sure they were absolutely cooking something intentional. it’s all so nerdy. i trust they made their choices for a reason. but i still disagree with them

i guess what i was getting at is that like extra flavor details in the music like this are great but what’s underneath really matters too… the main melody plays the biggest role in storytelling here. in a critical plot moment you should be able to listen to a track and just Feel a certain emotion and get an impression of what the character is like or what the situation is like. is it happy, sad, fearful, determined? unsettling? does it actually distinctly lack a melody, and what does that say about it? like without having to study details like this behind the scenes.. you shouldn’t need a phd the song should just hit you y’know

like it doesn’t exist within a vacuum it exists in the context of ‘i’m fighting this guy who by now i know means well and has been lied to and is in denial at this point, in the hopes that he backs down from trying to change the world for the worse and admits he was wrong, so that we can please be friends’ i understand n is an unusual sort of person and that formulas and calculations are part of his character quirks. but also at his core he’s not a machine or something he’s a human being with a lot of feelings and beliefs. that’s like. a really important part of the narrative… ik he suppresses his thoughts a lot but like

ig i just would’ve expected more of that passion in him to come out during his decisive battle. you would not have to change that much about it to satisfy my conditions. like his standard battle theme works fine for him when he’s battling you just to like test and study you in a calculating sort of sense but in the endgame you’d expect it to be more dramatic. which is why i love the pokemas version where it gets fused with his castle theme it sounds absolutely perfect like that’s the n theme we needed

the like. main part of n’s battle theme like the melody part… it is full of dissonant intervals. again who knows there might be a numerical thing to it that i’m unaware of but y’know like those are the sounds that make you distinctly uncomfortable. that composers use to signify fear or evil. i once woke up in a feverish mini-panic bc that song made its way into my dreams. (and that actually made me appreciate it more not less. lol. if you strike fear into my heart that’s a compliment). and i know he is an antagonist and you should be at least a little bit afraid of him but see like that’s the kinda thing they did for like. ghetsis. the pure evil dude of all time whose name is actually music-related too. the man is so evil he got named after his own evil music. ok king

basically n my man he deserves more to his battle music than sounding scary and cold

buuuut i guess you could say that’s what his encounter theme is for. ‘prisoner to a formula’ has a distinct melody (although that song is creepy lol). and then in b2w2 it gets remixed into a major key and it’s now called ‘n’s theme’ so like yay for once mr natural harmonia has a memorable theme that sounds like he gets sunlight and fresh air and that’s definitively considered to be his character theme!! yay!!!!!

idk. maybe this is all supposed to represent how he suppresses everything he feels and withdraws into his shell and his mechanical obsessive habits while he’s battling. bc his heart is distinctively not in it it’s not true to who he is as a character and also he’s in denial and trying to talk a big scary game the whole time. like the music represents his outer self not his inner self which is imo not ideal for a decisive character battle. and especially not given that his battle theme is at its core basically the same in the sequel even after he’s undergone character growth they bothered to make a remix but still didn’t add heart to it. as if they still wanted your impression of him to be offputting. but who knows!
