You look lonely...
I can fix that
// I haven't made any videos in about 8 years, got a trial for Sony Vegas 17 (hence the watermark) to test out and thought I'd make I think the first HeatWeave GMV...ever? Who knows. But I just had to made it sad. Of course I only now notice I didn't include any longing looks from the Act 1 Gale romance scene...and some of the crops are missing. Uuuugh, I'm an idiot. Can tell it's been years since I edited something.
// Song: Memory Reboot by Narvent/VOJ
Voice clips: Blade Runner 2049
(this audio is also known as the Blade Runner trend)

a very so merry night we hold dear
#project moon#lobotomy corporation#library of ruina#binah#binah lobcorp#binah library of ruina#lor binah#lc binah#zena library of ruina#merry binahmas#they all get little hats as a treat#can't wait to play between two worlds and confuse my relatives#remember to take a nap with your binah in front of a cozy fire#what the fire is burning is up to you

the fact that I cannot simply quit my job. there’s plenty of food and space and skilled people in the world. things could function so much better with a tenth the labor if we were efficient about it. but we aren’t. and under capitalism I love my job - I am incredibly lucky to have it and even find it fulfilling in its way. but also I am disabled and my life would be 1000% easier if I just didn’t have to find miracle jobs to make what still comes to below poverty wages given how few hours I can manage. but even though the amount of money I make is play money to other people, it��s the only thing giving me dignity, both the dignity of privacy in spending and the false dignity of being a “productive member of society”. plus, like, I gotta eat and feed my cats, even if I’m currently rent free. but sometimes I think about the ways money and my job (and their relationship with my health) play as such large factors in my decision making and I just think, ideally, those would have less weight. ideally I could just quit my job and somehow still have money. not because I don’t love the work, but because of the limitations having to maintain both a work schedule and my fatigue put on me.
#timemachine wuz here#I do love my job though#like couldn’t ask for a better one. genuinely always anxious they’re gonna fire me even though they’ve given zero indication#and have always been really understanding and also complimentary#I think because I realize how much I enjoy the work compared to almost any job I’ve had#it just ticks so many boxes. and even the driving isn’t that bad (except when there’s snow but we are encouraged to call out#if we think it’s unsafe)#it’s just that at my level of fatigue. I feel like#ideally I wouldn’t need a job at all yk?#like on a straight financial level my job costs more than it’s worth#as in if I had 100k a year I would spend *more than my salary on a pill that eliminates my job’s impact on my health if such a pill existed#meaning like on some level I think my job isn’t objectively worth it#even though I think it is valuable work and I enjoy doing it and am able to maintain a remarkable work/life balance given its flexibility#relative to my level of disability#like pragmatically it’s an invaluable job that I love but idealistically i could just quit to write and play with my cats and clean the bat#idk I feel whiny

I feel so fucking dead inside over this recent WoW fuckery but I have to say, going from the WoW mutual to the Squeenix mutual is not the direction I expected things to go
#like square is hardly flawless itself but at least i get some variety#and stuff that's easier to revisit without having new lore shoved in your face as the new absolute canon#because it's all relatively self contained#we don't talk about KH3 focus#the point is there's no linear yet ever shifting universe like the garbage fire that's been burning in the Blizzard launcher#for WELL over a decade#i can go play any which game i like and just leave it at that#WE'RE NOT TALKING ABOUT THE VII REMAKES I SAID FOCUS#i don't even know where I'm going with this i guess square has several games i enjoy and they make me happy#as opposed to getting hurt with every little development in the piece of shit blizzard MMO#HUUUUGHHJHJJJJ#vent

Listen, friends, I've seen the whole "where would you put the one swear word in the lotr trilogy" debate, and it's all very amusing and everything
but if you do not think that Mister Bilbo Baggins (of Bag End) would be the only character who says Fuck in the whole trilogy (and over something very mundane at that), then you are wrong
#we're talking about bilbo baggins here#the guy who managed to find one of the most powerful artefacts in existence#and then proceeded to keep said artifact aka the one ring of power#forged in the very fires of mordor etc#for SIXTY years#and used it to avoid his relatives#like obviously bilbo doesn't play by the same rules as everyone else#i mean we're talking about the character who insulted his guests at his own birthday party and made it sound like a compliment#the same guy who gave the most petty gifts imaginable to at least half the shire after he pulled his disappearance act#do I need to say more#bilbo baggins guys#lotr#middle earth#he's an asshole but that's why we love him

sometimes i remember how many things i have made my responsibility and i truly think there's something wrong with me
#sming + directing + intensive applications#and then As Soon As i'm done sming i go into ADing and then i have my fundraiser over winter break#and then next semester it's. assistant directing + producing the 24 hour plays + production managing + charity concert + probably some sort#- of design position for shrew knowing myself. + producing a new work tho i pray to GOD that the director figures out how to be competent b#- then. and during all of this i also have to run my theater company remotely and be president of a student org#oh and i have classes. ofc#what if i literally jumped off of a bridge instead. i think maybe that would be easier#sorry i try to keep irl relatively off of here or at least like. only talk about the frivolous stuff but man i think i might drown#& also i feel bad complaining abt it to friends irl too much bc i have objectively done it to myself#fire chakra is exploded or whatever my prof was talking abt today when she looked at me and said u like to get stuff done huh#ted talks

@galefcrce continued from here
Karlach knew the weight of this meeting, and how important it was for Gale. It was no doubt very disrespectful to grant Gale a kiss upon his cheek right in front of Mystra - her Weave very much around them - but it was just a little defiance. Just a little message from her personally. She won't go any further, this wasn't about her after all.
Karlach had no doubts in Gale at all. Most would have been wracked with nerves, angry and terribly jealous if they knew their partner was about to go meet up with his ex - but no. She had full trust in him. Something she wasn't sure she'd ever have in another again after Gortash - but here they were. Gale was able to reach where she thought no one ever would again. He deserved all of her respect, and faith.
"Well, I'm not exactly well-versed in talking to Goddesses', and I don't think you want to know what I'd really say-" She chuckled before curbing the humour for just a moment. "-but instead, I'll just say; be confident, be steadfast and honest."
She put a hand on his shoulder for a moment, a gentle squeeze before stepping back and giving him some room. "Go on. I'll be right here when you get back."

my fates take is that the decision isn't about corrin's siblings it's about his parents
#idk if this is a particularly Hot take bc i don't engage in the fandom at all#but the decision is more about mikoto and garon than the royal siblings#mikoto corrin's birth mother or garon his adopted father#that's like the only way i can forgive the siblings not actually being corrin's blood relatives#my toxic trait is i actually really like the mikoto isn't actually the mother of the hoshido siblings#bc even if she wasn't their birth mother she was the best mother they could've asked for and after sumeragi died she was the only parent#they had#idk that's just some thoughts i had this morning dkjghasklgh#fire emblem#fe14#also i know i said his when referring to corrin i usually do that for corrin since i only played fates once and used male corrin#with robin and byleth i'm better about they/theming them

I thought abt Wormwood hcs for like 5 seconds before it spiraled way out of control and now I have a whole hypothetical mod in my head with Wormwood as the final boss help
#rat rambles#its not like a hc event thing its just me going that would sure be sick#basically in my hcs wormwood techically Could get most of his nutrients from the earth but doesnt by choice#this is because his roots are kind of parasitic in nature sorta?#as in they do the fun dst moon thing where they try to cling onto and alter other life forms to try and make them part of themself#which wormwood doesnt like doing! its uncomfortable for the other plants and for him#and after a while the plants would fully become part of him and thatd just be a whole other can of worms#but yeah the mod idea is but what if he did just take root and sit there for a while#basically it takes place in a series of giant regions that are all a part of his root system#in my minds eye they each have a boss in them that are based on one of his costumes#thered be at least 4 main regions one thats filled with mushrooms and other cave plants that completely bock out the sun#a rainforesty area filled with spiny plants that want you dead soooo bad#a deserty area filled also filled with plants that want you dead but they eat fire this time#and a relatively normal forest with a temple in the middle where wormwood is cilling in#in my minds eye it works off of enlightenment like other lunar places but no sleepy guys ofc#instead its more like a gague of how well the plantlife around you can see you and as a result of how agressive they will be#I also imagine they are light sensitive which is both a obsticle and smth you can use to your advantage#and ofc youd be playing as wheeler because Id have to ok#anyways I musteth shower now

ykno i was wondering if Dohalim would be promoted to the same level as Yuri Lowell in my mind. bc ive been in love with Yuri Lowell for yeaaars now.
and you know what. i think he already has been lmaooo
sorry Yuri, u got a rival in my heart
#speculation nation#theyre like at opposite ends of the Character Spectrum tho which is kinda hilarious#but united in what Counts.#for me at least lol#idk what it is about tales games making characters that i genuinely fall in love with but it's unmatched by almost anything else#like ok sure im in love with inigo from fire emblem. but u still dont get to know fire emblem characters as well as tales characters#at least not for central characters. tho three houses did better on expanding side characters more#main persona characters r all teenagers so :p not getting any In Love With characters from there#and other than that. uhmmmmm#yea idk no other game series i play has characters that im as consistently completely in love with like this#it's a good thing! i think character depth & development is one of tales games' biggest strengths#gotta thank tales of zestiria's relative popularity back in like 2016 for getting me into this series lmaooo#tho really it was my fav aldnoah.zero writer on ao3 writing tales of zestiria fic that first gained my attention#which is the most hilarious roundabout way to get into a (relatively) obscure game series by a Pretty obscure (at least these days) anime#That's it that's the post. dohalim my beloved <3

i should have probably reblogged this off the person who originally made the post huh.
anyway here's the song I'm talking about
and here's a YouTube video of the solo D in question
youtube
sorry for the long tags
NEVER apologize for leaving long tags when you reblog from me. i am reading it like its my daily newspaper in the morning. idc if idk shit about what ur talking about, its like checking out the gossip from the next town over
#constant motion by dream theater is one of my favourite songs ever#especially in the prog rock sphere. not just because the song itself is a gem from one of their most underrated albums#but because of the status it holds in the rock band community (guitar hero made by the original guitar hero devs after they got kicked out)#rock band alongside harmonix's guitar hero games (1 and 2) are famous for having an incredibly tight window#for you to actually hit the notes. this means that doing shit that in other plastic instrument games would be easy as hell becomes impossib#le#so here comes motherfucking constant motion#a decently long dream theater song (6-8 minutes. i don't really remember) with a signature john petrucci solo#meaning technical as all hell#in rock band 1 (the most jank game of the 4 im pretty sure) as dlc#specifically. the part that makes the song go from relatively hard to absolutely fucking impossible is solo D#(that's how the section is called ingame)#which not only has fast as hell HOPOs (notes you don't have to strum for) with really fucking tight regular strum notes#but also requires you to transition quickly from strumming notes every couple of seconds in fast sweeping patterns to doing#descending triplets fast speeds (think of One by Metallica in guitar hero 3)#and it really doesn't look all that bad if you've seen/can do advanced clone/guitar hero play#but that timing window does NOT LET YOU FUCK UP#you have to be. SO ACCURATE TO HIT ANYTHING IN ANY OF THESE GAMES#beside this#the reason this song matters to me so much despite the fact i can't even dream of being able to play it well#is because dream theater is one of my favorite bands of all time and to see that despite my previous dissapointment given to me by the fact#that the one chance guitar hero had to make a DT song noteworthy and difficult by putting it in the same place that their last game#guitar hero 3#had put fucking THROUGH THE FIRE AND THE FLAMES#was wasted because they chose pull me under#which is a great song and their most well known but it's also stupid easy on plastic guitar#like. easy to the point where i can play it and i can't even play on expert yet#was completely negated thanks to constant motion being dlc for rock band 1 and being really fucking hard at that#made me so happy to a concerning degree. what is wrong with me#thank you harmonix

play with fire by the rolling stones is my roman empire tbh
#^ u can tell yesterday i was listening to darjeeling limited soundtrack. also ive read lyrics only now#makes me think of rocco ngl. basically his core in the plot#they actually had it. rocco being around mafiosos but then he returns home#and cellings r low and walls r yellowish bc of niccotine n the floor is sticky#and theres his family and cat that doesnt actually live there she just visits often#at least smth good n warm there. actually i want to put him in a communal flat#bc i need some fucked up scenes in the kitchen (itd probly be so small)#no personal space etc#roccos grandmother is an ultimate oc i had to put a bit as a guilty pleasure since anna lily n eleonore isnth there#that one t shirt i didnt do that nobody saw me do that i want to speak to my grandma#just thought that its funny when ppl do m series ocs its most often gangstse related (big bravo)#my roman empire m oc is a grandma and roccos mother also. her husband went to ww1 returned wo leg and then just left#happy house many such cases. good for them vets in the family is a complicated thing#i try not to think how rus i make them all. but i always remins mslf some real stories my friend told me#bout life of his friend in italy w a family of her fiance. balabanov core#returnin to rocco n mafiosos “And the chauffeur drives your cars; You let everybody know;#But don't play with me; cause you're playing with fire' < yeah him#hes arrogant - quality that no one value. i thought that moretti needed an onbjective reason#not to take him into the family but the more i read & think; rocco's personality is enough reason already#and thing that concerns me a bit is that rocco appears in the plot relatively late; in 1927#tho hes only (*already. different treatment of age) 20 yrs old. but idk#upd. Play w fire fits him so well... Bravo

#like idk i’m abt to reveal a little bit abt the things i care about lmao but has anyone seen the new panera menu lately? it’s not even fucki#ng panera anymore. it’s like weird bastardized baked goods#taco bell just made their cups like 2 oz smaller (????)#mcdonald’s has been a shitshow for years#so i guess maybe unrelated but.#and the lines everywhere are long and the food is honestly more mid than it should be#and like yeah it’s just fast food but like these were all place to get a meal relatively guaranteed to fit a certain mold for a very long#time#and now you can’t anymore#and idk it’s troubling#and frankly i think everyone in charge across the board is playing with fire. people will get tired of it eventually. it has been a long 5#years. and i think there will be a breaking point eventually.#ok done being doom and gloom#molly's musings

Sometimes I wish I wasn’t 12 when I came up with Suiren and Midori cause why the fuck do both of them have Japanese names
#no but seriously. neither of their parents have japanese names. none of their relatives have japanese names#they aren’t from the fire nation which would make a bit more sense#12 yo Nia why were you so dumb. why was there 0 thought put into their names#okay tbf I did take my time picking suiren’s. I googled flower names in different asian languages until I found one I liked#I knew I wanted her name to be water related so I mostly looked at lilies and lotuses#and suiren is a gorgeous name. don’t get me wrong#I don’t really have any qualms about it. I like it well enough and I think it suits her#my in-universe explanation is that her parents were 20 and 21 when they had her and handy grown out of teen rebellion just yet#so picked a name removed from their respective cultures#though if I had to pick a different name I’d choose Niloufer. it also means water lily but matches ghazan haya and afarin a bit better#I have no excuses for midori#every 2000s baby had an indie video game they were obsessed with in 2015-2019. mine was yandere simulator#so I named her after midori gurin#particularly because of that one fan song that I had playing on repeat that summer#the vibes of it matched my original midori concept so… here we are.#I regret it now bc 1) it’s incredibly lazy. holds no deep meaning nor is connected to her parents’ cultures#2) yanderedev is… yanderedev. would rather not have anything associated with him tbh#but I can’t really change it now because it’s been 5 years. I can’t imagine midori with any other name anymore#I don’t even know what I’d change it to. probably something chinese to match ming-hua#and even if I were to change it it would involve editing so much#posts. tags. fics. everything. it’s way too late now even if I had a good replacement name lined up#oh well. Midori it is I suppose. brb gonna go build a time machine to yell at my 12yo self to use her brain#sotrl suiren#sotrl midori#seeds of the red lotus
