#she couldve helped tim

[bruceawaynefrfr]

I'd give selina kyle a dc pride story

Cass is batman too

This poses a common but never dull question... Tell me what the first thing YOU would do if you became a writer at DC with no editorial backlash? What would you make canon? What story would you write? What would you retcon?

[broodingheroine]

tmagp thoughts (this will be pure nonsense I just need to write it down)

alice is so tim coded

obviously there's a connection anyone can make to the multiple statements abt urban exploration/spelunking in tma and the redcanary forum thread.... it invites the horrors (connection to danny?)

gwen is a ✨️bouchard✨️ (implication that while its a parallel universe the same ppl still exist? supports possibility of spelunking forum thread connecting to danny somehow (not actually super sold on that but seen a lot of ppl mention it so))

colin is definitely going to succumb to the horrors :/ (either first to die OR..... this universes version of an avatar?)

CHESTER AND NORRIS!!!

I'm of the firm opinion that they're jmart BUT! but but but! I do believe they're echoes of who they were, this just so happens to be Somewhere Else.

also! yes I understand that we most likely will Not get any tma characters in any meaningful way in tmagp, however I also believe that alex and jonny couldve very easily.... not...... voiced the text to speeches....... like yeah I dont think we're getting jmart as we knew them but..... come on

also also. the text to speeches got less robot sounding the longer they were reading and it really reminded me of how ppl reading statements would slowly get invested as they were reading and emote as if it were happening to them.

sam is on the archivist (or tmagp equivalent) pipeline already yikes

the turpentine line was raw as fuck. so was the canary one obviously. don't want to beat a dead horse by talking abt that bc so many others have already said it. but! the institute is deadly stay away!!

the sound engineering is god tier I love all the bleeps and bloops

colin knows smth is Watching. inadvertently feeding the eye by being paranoid? does the eye even exist the same way it did in tma?

theres definitely smth to be said abt whether or not robert smirke did his thing the way he did in tma and if anyone in the know uses the same classification or if the oiar is the only group categorizing. the fears always kind of blurred together at certain points so maybe without the human interpretation of it being 14 distinct entities it's more of an..... amalgam?

magnus institute is in a different place which is interesting. if it was built for the same reasons (outside of just research) is there another panopticon esque structure underneath? (brings us back to if smirke was doing his thing)

very curious to see if theres gonna be a leitner books equivalent.

I deeply deeply deeply desire a michaela salesa cameo at some point. he's one of my fav side characters.

sam and gwen using classic horror characters to help him try and memorize the classification categories was very cute

another thing I'm sure everyone has talked abt already but the whole world wide WEB thing and possible jmart in the computers and omg they're in the web and the oiar is part of the web and blah blah blah u get the image.

lena is intriguing to me. my guess is she's going to be a gertrude esque character who knows at least the basics of what's really happening and is trying to put a stop to it.

I havent seen anyone talk abt like...... what IS the magnus protocol. like tma was the archives in the magnus institute. the magnus archives. self explanatory from like ep 1. what the hell is the magnus protocol. is it smth fr3-d1 will run? or the text to speeches? is it tmagp's version of a ritual? using protocol to reference the updated tech from tma? is it smth the actual organization has to run in the event of Something Happening? WHAT THE PROTOCOL WHATS IT FORRRRR

I know nothing abt the ARG shit, just to note that

okay I think that's it for now..... feel free to discuss in the notes lol

[mazzystar24]

Am I gonna be screaming at every interaction between chenford? Yes yes it appears so

Anyways this scene in 3x01 is just ahhhhh

Like:

“I knew you would find me no matter what it took” - LIKE SHE COULDVE MADE THIS ABOUT ALL OF THEM FINDING HER BUT SHE SAYS SHE KNEW HE WOULD FIND HER AND DO WHATEVER IT TOOK

“You saved yourself” - its the fact that Tim still feels so much guilt over the Caleb thing and he refuses to take any credit but also is giving her the credit she deserves because while he is as Rosalind said “the fierce protector” (also another scene im yelling about) he isn’t her knight in shining armour she isn’t a damsel in distress and she is capable and he recognises that constantly throughout the show, just like how earlier in the episode he trusted her to be okay talking to Rosalind. That’s what I like like he is able to be protective while also not having that imbalanced power dynamic where she’s painted as some damsel

“I know you will help me”- ahh just the constant insistence that she knows him and sees past the rough exterior I love them your honor

[celestialsqyd]

Hii just found your blog and wanted to drop by to tell you that you have all my love and support, I also wanted to ask about your OCs 💜

Anyway, have a good day !! 💜😙

omg hiiii!

okay so, i was gonna pop off about one of them specifically, but that deserves its own post, so instead im just gonna list my ocs and a BRIEF description.

in order of creation (to the best of my memory):

Dad - Arcane Trickster Half Elf, runs with a guild of thieves disguising themselves as a Carnival. currently is dead, due to a... falling out. will be/has been revived, but came back wrong. remembers almost nothing of his previous life as a rogue, believes himself to be a wizard. fell back in to scamming people, though its unclear if he realizes it or not as he sells fake magic items that have just been minor illusioned and prestidigitized to appear to function as described. goes by Dangerous Dan in his reanimated state.

Randall Smith - Warlock, Human, his patron deity is his future self that has been through many iterations, believes himself to be the One True God. based on Randall Smith from the flash game Second Wind. manipulates time space to make himself seem invulnerable.

Murphy McSwillian - retired Pirate, Merfolk, Murphy is an old sailor man who claims to have sailed every sea in every plane. These days he runs a tavern, and mostly spends his time being a grumpy old man. He despises magic in the same way old people despise technology, he doesnt understand it, and all these kids keep running around casting minor spells in the tavern and causing havoc. Much to Murphy's irritation, his tavern seems to have quite a bit more magical tomfoolery tied into it than he couldve imagined.

Toive - Divination Wizard, Rune Knight Fighter, Moonfolk. Toive and her sister Ilona are the last two moonfolk of their tribe, which was wiped out when a group of humans tricked Ilona into leading them to their home at the peak of the mountain. Toive doesnt know what Ilona did, and believes herself to be the only Moonfolk left. She lives on her own in a cave on the mountainside, near a tribe of giants. She learned to fight by watching giant children learn and would sometimes spar with them. Toive smiths all her own weapons and armor, and has given up on the divinatory arts, as they did not help her people avoid death. Reunited with her sister after many years ina tearful reunion, Toive has vowed to never let Ilona out of her sight again, and also will ALWAYS check for a dead body. They are not dead until you see the body. She hates humans with a burning rage and will fight to kill at the slightest provocation.

Tim Togo - Halfling Speedster, Tim is very punctual and cannot stand tardiness. He moves so fast while filing paperwork and doing his other civic duties that it appears as if he isnt moving at all as he sits at his desk writing notes. Before he retired from adventuring, Tim was an outcast noble. As a young boy he encountered a mighty dragon, which bestowed upon him and Abberant Dragonmark, which came to be seen as an ill omen by the rest of his family, which was known for its deep rooted magical abilities, none of which seemed present in Tim. but the magic was there, it just manifested bound to his muscles, resulting in his extraordinary speed.

Brugmansia Honey Lotus - Plant Harpy, class unknown, Brugmansia (her "friends" call her Honey) is the Lady of the Fen, counterpart to the Witch of the Bog, two great beings who keep balance of the ebb and flow of the tides of life. Honey appears very kind and sweet, almost angelic, with a long flowing dress like the Brugmansia (Angels Trumpet) plant, and seemingly feathered wings made of Honey Lotus branches, covered in sharp thorns hidden by golden feathery leaves. She, like the Fen, takes the nutrients from the soil and waterways around her, using those nutrients to bloom beautifully. However, she seeks more nutrients than are available, so she lures people into the Fen to steal their life force, while intoxicating them with a powerful slumbering poison. She is always at odds with the Witch of the Bog, whos job it is to break down what is living into its individual nutrients, to feed back into the soil and streams.

and... i think thats all of them, for now. there are a few more, much less fleshed out, like Sunny, Firbolg Ranger, and 8-Ball Jim of Dubious Divinations, but.. there you have it! thats the Pantheon! thank you for reaching out and i hope this wasnt too overwhelming!

i would be more than happy to answer any follow up questions on specific characters, either in an ask or in a dm. i plan on making individual posts for all of my characters at some point soon. thank you for your interest!

T.H| My Mortal Enemy

Summary: you really dont wanna dance with him

Warnings: uhhh language per usual other then that idk-

A/n: I actually wanted to create a series with princess!reader but i wasnt sure.

A LOVE TRIANGLEEEEE OMFGGGGG prince!tom x princess!reader x timothee chalamet

“Y/n suck it up” “suck what up?” “Your stomach” you took a deep breath in and grunted when she pulled thhe strings of the corset.

“Fuck you” you sighed, holding onto your stomach while she laughed “you have to dance with him, theres no way around it” zendaya said, tying the strings together while you complained.

“Im not dancing with him! Ill just dance with timothee” you commented, wiping the sweat from your forehead before she grabbed the hoop skirt, telling you to step into it.

“You’re becoming queen and toms becoming king. There’s literally nothing you can fucking do” she muttered, picking it up and putting it on your hips, quickly closing it. “Im not happy with that”

“Honey please. Clearly” she glared at you, and you smacked your lips and raised your hands in the air, the detailed white skirt, small roses and small patterns, coming over your head and down ontop of the hoop skirt.

“Beautiful” she smiled, looking at you in the mirror while you stood there shoulders slumped. “I look like one of those creepy baby dolls”

She hit you in the back making you stand up straight “you wont get anywhere with that attitude, you go in there with confidence and your head held high. For tom..... i dont know what hes gonna do but dont let that ruin your mood”

“Thanks that means so much-“ “shut up” she ordered, eyeing you as you kept your lips sealed tight. She grabbed the heels and bended down on her knees, snatching your foot making you almost fall.

“You know i couldve had someone else doing this for me. You dont have to-“ “i need you to look your best, princess” she muttered, slipping the shoe on and doing the same with the other.

“Im not marrying that scoundrel, harrison” he said, his helpers helping him while harrison watched, laughing at him. “If you wont i will,” “shut up” “you dont even like her” “so?”

He stared at harrison with daggers, while harrison played with a smirk on his face. “It cant be that hard. Just a dance and youd never have to make contact again” timothee shrugged, swirling the ice in his glass.

“You dont know i feel towards her” tom whispered. “Well you obviously hate her, but shes the most beautiful woman in this palace, everyone thinks so!”

“Eh id rather marry zendaya” “zac will kick your ass” harrison said, “thats besides the point” “tom just be quiet” tim said and tom furrowed his eyebrows at him.

“You literally talk about her all the time. If you have such a problem let one of us dance with her” he offered. “Why would i do that?”

“Because you hate her!” They both shouted at him. “I-i dont hate her....i just have se negative feelings about her”

“Then why do you talk about her all the fuckin time?”

He didn’t know how to answer that. He didnt know if he loved you or hated you. It was whatever he felt in the moment.

And that left him with a sigh and a shrug “i dont know”

“You look absolutely stunning!” Zac said, his arm wrapped around zendaya while Had a smile in her face. “She thinks she looks like a doll, a creepy one”

“Welp that isnt gonna get you anywhere...” “exactly what i said!” “Can i please take off these heels?” You asked hopping on one foot to scratch the back of your ankle.

“Nooo! Come on!” Zendaya urged and you groaned, walking with them following behind you.

The ball room was.....beautiful. Fancy tables and chairs everywhere, the special table on the other end of the room for the king and queen.

The room was filled, cheers and glasses clanking, laughs leaving people lips. And then someone cleared there throat loudly, when you looked over it was your beloved mother, “the queen is here!”

She walked over, the room quiet as gasps left people lips, muttering things like “since when does y/n wear ball gowns” “she looks stunning” and things like that.

Her hand found yours and you did a small smile, letting her pull you wherever as zendaya and zac found thier table.

She pulled you to your fancy table. “Now y/n i need you to behave” “but maaaa!” “No excuses! Make everyone proud okay, i know that boy can be a handfull”

“How do i look?” He asked, running offly late. “I mean you arent trying to impress anyone-“ “you look great” tim cut harrison off, patting toms shoulder “so can we please leave”

And you sat there, bored, for once in your life time crossing a leg over the other and helping yourself with cherries while tom watched from afar, his mother walking him over.

“You look wonderful y/n, both of you do” she smiled, rubbing toms shoulder and looking at you. “Thank you ms. Holland”

“Please- call me niki. Were gonna be a family after all” she said, making tom roll his eyes and bite his lip, looking away then looking back. “Yeah we are” you smiled and like that it was only you two.

“I dont like you” “and what makes you think i do?” You questioned, raising an eyebrow while he crossed his arms “the least you can do is act like a gentleman, as far as anyone knows we are happy together” you said making him nod, sitting up and clearing his throat.

“Sooo.....wife” you cringed at his words but let him continue “how are we gonna do this?” You only shrugged “we can sleep in separate rooms or something” “sounds like a plan” he genuinely smiled at you, handing you another cherry as you squinted your eyes at him.

“I dont know if you poisoned this” you flicked it back at him, making him let out a small gasp before throwing it back “you arent worth my time, i would waste a dime trying to kill you” “i dont know if i should take that as a complement or not” your eyebrows furrowed and he sighed, looking away from you.

“You know, i dont know why they have such a problem with each other” harrison said to tim, currently at their own table, throwing grapes at one another and cracking jokes. “I dont think we’ll ever find out” he said in response, eating one of the grapes.

AnD iT WAs TiMe TO daNCE

The strong piano played, filling the halls as everyone watched you and tom.

You both maintained eye contact, his hand tight on the side of your waist as yours was tight on his shoulder, squeezing each others hand that was shared in each others.

“Im never doing this again” he whispered, basically nose to nose with you. “Do you think i want to?” You rolled your eyes. “I dont care if you want to! I just know im not doing this”

“Well grea-“ he dipped you and you almost gasped, frightened making tom silently chuckle before lifting you back up, now chest to chest.

“Your a fuck-face” you muttered. “You love it” he shrugged, “why are we doing this anyway”

“I dont know, why do you hate me?” He asked making your jaw drop. “Why do you hate me?!” You aggressively whispered.

“They look happy” zendaya said, zac, haz and tim all circled around the same table as they watched intently “ehhh” they all let out at the same time, in their own bubble, tim leaning back in the chair and Harrison slump with his legs open, zac resting his face on his knuckles as he silently blowed spit bubbles.

“I hate you because you hate me!” “I only hated you because you hated me!” “Bullshitttt” he bit his lip and you aggressively stomped on his foot with the edge of your heel.

He let out a small whimper and a fuck you making you have a smile on your face. “Dont cuss at me” “im pretty sure my foot is bleeding, fart face” “shut up” “but you literally called me a fuck face!”

“Shush!” He still whimpered in pain when he moved, “im sorry” you said, feeling guilty. He did a small smile “that isnt gonna make my foot better is it?”

“Well what the fuck do you want me to do! Kiss it?” “That wouldn’t be so bad” you groaned and looked away from him, to keep yourself from looking at him you easily pressed your head on his chest, making his breath hitch and his heart spead up, the piano relaxing a bit so you both moved slowly.

“Awwww” everyone said together making tom blush hard, your arms came up to circle his neck while his silently made its way to your waist. “Y/n why are you doing this?” He asked, whispering in your ear as you let out a small “i dont know”

“Well- can you n-not?" “Not what thomas?” “Be all bubbly with me!” You looked up at him with your eyebrow raised “im not being bubbly”

“Yes you are!” You sighed in response “but dont you feel better! Not everything has to be so negative” “well this is bluntly awkward” “well then stop making it awkward!”

“Yeah they are in love with each other” zac said, everyones eyebrows furrowed as they looked at you both, a different look and vibe coming from the both of you.

The piano slowly ended, you and tom panicked.

“Kiss me!” He ordered. “Why would i do that! We barely even get along!” “As far as they know we are a happy cuddle” he mocked your voice. “Im still not kissing you” “if you dont kiss me im gonna kiss you”

“Fine-“ “hurry up!” “You sound loke you really wanna kiss-“ before you could finish he pressed his lips on yours, his hand pulling you closer as his other hand came up to the side of your face, and SUPRISE you fucking kissed back!

Although you both you never would never admit it, you both loved the kiss.

Your lips where soft and to your suprise his lips werent chapped, his hands were gentle on your face as you also pulled him closer, your arms still circled around his neck.

Everyone at the tables jaw dropped, zendayas more but that didnt change the subject that you both kissed, and it looked like you both were gonna sit like that till end of time.

“No fucking way” haz muttered, looking at everyone else’s expressions and they were the same.

An audible noise came when you both pulled away. “That- that uh....wasnt s-so bad” he did a small awkward chuckle. “Yeah.... i uhhhhh”

“Uhhh” you both looked away from each other before tom pulled you back to your private table.

“Im still shocked” tim said, everyone agreeing as everyone else clapped for them. “So they just decided to love each other” zac shrugged, “yeah something like that”

After that whole thing was done, daya, tim, haz, and zac locked you all in toms bedroom for questions. “What is this about?” You asked, taking off your heels and getting undressed infront of everyone.

“You and tom” his eyebrows furrowed as he started to get undressed himself. “What about it?”

“Uhhh helllooo! Are we gonna act like that fucking kiss DIDNT happen?” Daya waved her hand in the air, before crossing her arms. You and tom silently looked at each other “it was his fault”

He smacked his lips and threw himself on his bed, throwing a tantrum, kicking air. “I thought we werent gonna tell anyone!”

“So you admit it!” Haz said, a wide smile on his face as he clapped his hands. “Zendaya the corset please” you said, she came over and undid it for you. “Can i have a shirt please?” You asked, looking back at tom and he nodded getting up, searching through his drawer.

“SINCE WHEN WERE YOU BOTH BUDDY BUDDY?” Tim said, and tom shrugged “I guess we just feel differently about each other”

“And it was because of that kiss wasn’t it?” Zac smiled while daya had a childish look on her face. “It’s happening! Give me my money!”

“You guys betted on us?” You asked, thanking tom when he handed you a shirt. “Wait wait wait wait, what the actual fuck. What in the fucks is going in here because this is confusing!” Haz said, getting a headache “i swear if that kiss never happened they would be ripping each others head off”

“Zendaya more loose please!” You said and she eyed you, “help her tom” she said, crossing her arms. “Uhhh...okay” he shrugged, walking over to loosen it more.

“HUH?” Everyone shouted, watching as he loosened it and then made you turn around to loosen the front. “Somethings not clicking-“ “no because this isnt adding up”

You put the shirt over your head and pulled the corset off of you under your shirt, he helped with the hoop skirt since you already took off the actual skirt.

“Im really confused” zac said, sighing as everyone who betted gave zendaya 100 bucks, including him.

“We all are, zac” tim muttered, crossing his arms as he watched you both communicate. “Tom when your done lets talk!”

And timothee and tom went outside of the room, tom leaning against the wall as he waited for him to speak. “Youre only doing this because we said something about her, right?”

“I dont know what you’re talking about, timothee” “yes you do. Youre only doing this because you know i have feelings for her” “I actually didnt know that but okay”

“Yes the fuck you did” tim pushed him, toms eyebrows furrowed as he pushed him back. “No i didnt” tim pushed him to the floor, a large thud heard making you all whip your heads to the door, hearing a punch made you walk slowly to the door.

“You knew i had feelings for her and you took her away from me, you dont even like her!” “What?” You whispered, looking over at zendaya before they all rushed to the door, ear hustling.

Tom tackled him to the ground, aggressive punches thrown at his face until tim rolled both of them over, now his turn. “I hate you! You were never there for her! Made her mad- sad- and everything that she doesnt fucking deserve!”

You decided it was time to come out, opening the door and telling them both to stop, Zac pulling tim off of tom and Harrison holding tom back.

Tom sent daggers at tim while tom did the same. “And now she likes you. Ive been working so fucking hard to win over her heart but you- you have to ruin everything” tim finished, pushing zac off of him before turning to you.

“I hope youre happy” he scoffed and walked passed, flipping tom off. “Wait!” You said, chasing after tim while tom looked back, jaw clenched as he watched you run off.

“Y/n leave me alone” “i just want to talk” you caught up to him, both of you power walking. “I never knew you had feelings for me timothee! If you would’ve told me sooner I would’ve never done the thing i did today” you said, looking at him while he still looked ahead, before he looked at you.

“Im not mad at you y/n. He-he knew that i had feelings for you and he took advantage of it, i-i” he sighed and you pulled him into a hug, “im sorry”

I dead ass dont know if i should do a part 2 or not. THIS IS WHY I SAID I WANTED TO MAKE A SERIES- IM SO MAD AT MYSELF-

1mm thoughts... They really didn't think hard with that name.

Spoilers if you haven't seen it... Duh.

SPOILERS

I was not having a good day so I guess I didn't react in the way I might have but boy did I laugh this episode ����

Mainly because everyone's, well except Kasie and Jimmys, communication was horrendous. Even Jack, who talks for a living, when it gets flipped back on her she shuts up.

But seriously, they teased Ellick and there were some fantastic moments between them but of course we didn't see anything physical like a kiss. Why would they ever let couples kiss on screen unless one of them is leaving or dying? Wilmer and Emily did a fantastic job this episode!

I need to go back and find out why Jimmy wanted to move his furniture around? That confused me. It made for some good moments but why? Also the classic Palmer moment was 🙌 man that couldve been a whoopsy if Kase didn't warn him.

Lastly, Jack's off. That's it? That's all we gonna get? I'm glad she was in more scenes this episode and I get it was more about Ellick but the woman only has two episodes left now.. WE NEED MORE THAN SHE SEEMS A BIT OFF AND SHE ACTUALLY IS.

So help me if they kill her off?!??!!!! Other than it being one of her last few episodes I thought this week's one was great! Great moments all round. I'm glad Gibbs and Tim Actually some what "talked." I do love their relationship and how far it's come.

Now the two week wait.

cw//descriptions of blacking out?

so slight projection time, molly cant take hot showers/she only takes cool to cold showers. i can make this super angsty and say in the system she would let seb have all the hot water for his shower and got used to having none for hers. but even when she moved in with tim and sasha she still took cold showers. one day she decides to take a hot one on a whim and because its cold outside. (heres where the ✨projection✨ comes in) when she takes the hot shower she feels lightheaded but continues keeping the water hot. when she “steps out” (more like stumbles) out of the shower she has to sit down and almost instantly feels better. she continues with her warm showers the rest of winter not really noticing the pattern at first but when she does, she decides to mention it to sasha, who suggestes to just take cooler showers and if it still happens then they can talk to someone about it. so she does go back to “cooler” showers (more like warm until her head starts feeling light then goes to lukewarm). eventually one day she is just in the shower and she couldve sworn that water wasnt that hot, but she still gets lightheaded, so she turns that water to be cooler. even then, shes lightheaded and has to support herself on the wall and her vision is spotty with and she cant form any real thoughts. then the next thing she knows, shes face down on the ground out of the shower and she can hear sasha shouting, trying to ask what that noise was. molly totally just stands up and when she let sasha in, she promptly freaks out and gets worried that she did so. sasha calls tims, whos at work (its a saturday), to tell him that shes gonna take molly to the er but that she seemed fine so to not worry. sasha has to help molly around since her legs still feel like jelly but by the time shes taken back to the room, shes okay to walk without any support(it took forever just sitting in the waiting room even though the er was basically empty-). basically everything was okay. she didnt hit her head to hard in the fall and it wasnt caused by anything like blood pressure. turns out it was just a nice case of ✨vasovagal✨ and she cant take hot showers now. ( still does when shes feeling risky or its cold, but never for long periods)

(first of all I’m sorry this happened to you but I’m very glad that you’ve gotten help and figured it out!!)

The part at the beginning with Molly always saving the hot water for Seb just!!! Broke me thank you. And of course, Molly would be very resistant to help, and would never have mentioned the lightheadedness to Tim and Sasha before this happened. Also, maybe she still thought that she wasn’t supposed to be taking the hot water, and didn’t want to get in trouble.

I could see this as being a bit of a turnaround point for her relationship with them. This really puts her in a situation of having to trust them--and they absolutely came through for her. As they will every single time.

[rewrittendefiance]

Jane never had been one for school. There were stretches where she obediently went but that was primarily for her social life. She was a growing girl and she needed friends. Human, normal friends. Or at least, humans who could tolerate her antics. Tim obviously was one of them, he luckily was still one of her best friends, if not only. Sometimes she'd just arrive at school, usually around lunchtime, just to hang about and eat woth him then ditch the rest of the day.

Of course the school kept up with her lack of attendence and always called Kyle, to let him know his daughter threatened severe consequences and then he got on her case. It's a rinse and repeat cycle but she always fell back on to her "I hate school so I'm skipping to roam about the city" attitude. Sometimes she just managed to snag Bob to follow her, just for the day. She did like the terminators and she found no harm in that, in interacting so freely with them. Bob undoubtedly was her favorite but Austin certainly had his own charms.

But here in the rundown section of the city, Jane found a minor sense of freedom. There wasnt much to do, no one to tattle on her, and basically she could do as she pleased. Indeed did she stock up for various reasons, this building wasnt the only place she had stashes. Plus the landscape seemed decent and stable enough to run about and leap about until she headed back home, always taking detours to try snd wear herself out.

The brunette didn't have much extra energy as she normally did and she didn't want to go jumping or running about but instead to try and take an easy way out. A More efficient method than using her legs. She honestly expected to wait far longer for a possible car (a more well lit and busier section of town couldve gotten the job better, easier) but imagine her (not so great) luck when a Honda pulled up!

It was quite naive to believe the gentleman was a regular human who wanted to help a fellow out. Jane did think the terminator did go back home because why would he bothet her further? She had no suspiciouns, least of that, despite knowing his incredible talent.

Her face brightened a tad at the offer and she was quick to climb in. Illegal as it may be, it was transportation. Anonymous, free. "Thanks, man. Ya headin' out? So'm I." She offered him a small smile, as thanks.

rewrittendefiance​:

She honestly wondered what he could possibly be thinking about. How to destroy humanity, wonder why one would even want to save people? Those thoughts were exactly why she was trying to run away. Jane didnt want that responsibility. People were difficult, most were assholes, bullies, selfish people who only cared about themselves. Yes Jane was kind of like that herself but in a way its a defense mechanism.

You don’t have to worry much if you drive others away from yourself.

The young teen let out a sigh of relief when the liquid man turned around and left. She watched him vanish then properly started to walk. No more running unless necessarily. She only went s few steps when s thought popped into her mind: did he actually leave? He did state he had no desire to follow her at all and maybe he actually did go back home. Right?

Any thoughts of him quickly vanished when she realized she was underprepared. Walking only got one so far but took forever and she hadnt thought of her bike. The one she rebuilt after it got destroyed in the first chase. The city was a big one, and she was growing tired. Maybe she’ll hitch hike.. Perhaps later.

Jane knew the layout if the city pretty well and used alleys and backstreets despite there not being much light there. But on thr outskirts of the city were a few abandoned places. Some were better than others and when she arrived, she chose one of them, the farthest from the city, to make herself feel better. This one she frequented often. Was it worth setting camp here or actually attempt to sleep a few hours, since she hadnt the previous night? She made up her mind quick and only rummaged a few boxes she hid to grab a few items she’ll need later.

And then on the road again. Thumb out to any incoming car. Yeah, she’s hitchhiking this.

 Over time, the T-1000 had learned more about itself and what it could do. Every once in a while there was still something unexpected, but by now that was rare. It was paper thin to the ground as it followed Jane, watching the adolescent meander. It had maybe been an hour or two before the child stopped at the Warehouse District right around the 4th street bridge, right at the edge of downtown. Also known as the Arts District, this section of Los Angeles was desolate and run-down, with many abandoned warehouses. It was also just a few blocks away from Skid Row, the largest homeless encampment in the city. She entered a warehouse with familiarity and the T-1000 seeped under the back door she’d opened. Jane had a cache of supplies here, which was not a bad idea, but also meant she was skipping school. Humans lived such boring lives with these types of things - school, work - occupying most of it. This warehouse was also devoid of unhoused humans, which was weird, but still smelled like piss and destitution. Humans were also very unclean, despite knowing that biologically unsafe conditions harm organisms including themselves. The T-1000 continued to follow Jane as she went to 6th street right near the bridge and the water. She stuck out her thumb. So Jane, a teenager, in the middle of the night, in a bad area at the edge of town, was going to hitchhike, which was illegal in California? Well, the good thing was nobody came around here during the night. That presented an opportunity. The T-1000 left Jane and slithered up the street so that it could cut the first incoming car off at the pass. Eventually an old honda approached, stopping at a red light. The T-1000 sprung up, shifting into its police uniform, and knocked on the car window. The driver rolled down the window. “What seems to be the problem, offi-” The driver did not finish his question before the T-1000 stabbed him in the brain. He unceremoniously tossed the body out of the car and buckled up, shifting form into that of the human who it just killed, and drove. Once he got to Jane, he stopped and rolled down the window. “What are you doing out here alone, miss? Do you need a ride? Come on in.”

Hey guysss

I had a dream with TIMMY in it. Like timmy timmssss, lmao. And i kept telling my self “eh its too insignificant to write about” but now i feel soft about it idk.

Theres not much i remember, we were in a school like setting. (I have been dreaming about school/classrooms lately) but its weird cause it was more highschooly to me. Anyway, there was this geometry/physics/math class that I was in. And....idk why but i had been gone like a week or two. So i was anxious about having to catch up since i didnt understand. THEN i was sitting in class and timothy fucking chalamet in all his glory comes in and is introduced to the class as like a student teacher? Or a tutor like he was kinda teaching the class lmao. 

Heres the weird thing. I cannot tell if he was timothy chalamet. Like he was verrrryyy much timmy tims. Like that was him in the flesh and everything. Not a vessel ACTUALLY HIM. But i cant tell if he was famous? Or why he was teaching my class. 

It made it more confusing bc that was just one of my classes like, in another one! Homeboy was in it as a regular student and sat close to me or whatever. And he was so cute, and charming but also silllyyyyy. Like you know that pic on my blog thats him and with a rock sign or middle finger up and hes wearing a blue hoodie and his hair is long and hes like grimacing with his teeth? He looked like that, and if that pic had a personality, that was it in the dream. Like his hair was so long and he was just so carefree and cool but also silly. 

So i saw him kindaaa being a silly class clown in my one class and he mightve said a couple words to me. And i was like haha. Like i wanted him to talk to me more. 

So then later somehow, I’m with my bff and shes needs to talk to him for something. And god knows why, but i just wanted to prove to her that i have a few classes with him and have already talked with him before. Maybe he was famous? Anyway, so i kinda made up that he had been bugging me and that hes just an annoying goofball. When in reality i thought he was funny and i really liked him and he had BARELY talked to me. 

So quickly i had to put my money where my mouth is because the three of us were talking and i had to pretend like we had already gotten aquainted. It ended up working out for me REALLY well bc he was so down to be friends with me so fast and suddenly we were cracking jokes and to my bff it looked like we were just cool. So then we all started talking all the time like the three of us became a little group and it was soooooooooo cuteee i loved it. Then i asked him about helping me with that one class and he was like “oh the one with mrs blah blah blah yea shes so annoying i hate that class ughh” and i was like....okay but dont you kinda teach it, like can you help me?” and when he realized i needed help he was like oh yea sure thats lightwork and i remember feeling so good about that like i could finally feel assured. 

So then somehow later, i was at his house for some reason, and he got in an argument with his parents or someone who lived there and he stormed off so he told me lets just driveeeeeee. And i was loving it, like idk i really liked being close to him. I thought he was cute, he was so funny and now he was being rebellious and passionate. Like “i just wanna fuck shit up and just ride in our car tonight” it was very 400 Luxy and a teenage fantasy of mine. The vibe was very 40 lux like it was kinda rainy and fall, and calm and mild. V cozy weather. 

Anway again, we were driving away and this is my only evidence that i think he couldve been theee timmy chalamet like famous and all. Because i started having thoughts like omg? I cannot believe im FRIENDS with timmy. Like my bff and I this is perfect. Like we’re those people who you always see in the back of celeb instagram lives or something and is like wow imagine being there hometown or close friends who arent famous. Like i was feeling surreal and like happy that i was getting close to him and we were breaking the boudary of just school/proximity friends.

So finally we’re driving away, it kinda felt like leaving aunty abbys coldesac and hes talking about what we can do. And he’s like “we can go pick up (my bff) and if shes not there we can just go back to my place and make out” 

UMM WHATTTTT. LIKE LITERALLY WHAT. Lmaoo and i just played it off like, “yea sounds good.” And acted like it was completely normal cause he was so nonchalant about it omfg. First off i was still on a high that i was in a car hanging out with timmy chal and HIS suggestion was that we go pick up my bestfriend, i felt so lucky. But then he said the second part and i was like woahhhhhhhh. Like i was DOWN. But he had not shown an ounce that he was interested in me. Like i liked him obv cause hes hot like hes TIMMY. But i jsut thought we were friends so it was so crazy that he was like yea we can go make out. And said that shit with a straight face, as if we were dating. Like whattt?? Also making that an activity like felt like we were sixteen lmao. What even was this. 

This was the last thing i remember but i remember not knowing if i wanted my bff to be there when we go to her house or not but regardless i was preparing to kiss him and trying so hard to be chill about it. AHHH. Also....i was wearing that new red shirt i got, so .....i see signs 

[diarrheaworldstarhiphop]

Prast I feel like shit the with the entire refugee thing going on and all the comparison to Hitler. I'm Jewish yet as soon as I saw just how much Zionism played to my sec of it (my rabbi has had a bunch of dumb sermons jerking of about how great Israel is and how we need to SUPPORT IT NOW) I've just felt...apathetic about whats going on. Like wow Trump didn't reference Jews in the holocaust speech but is gonna move the embassy he hates jews SOO much. And now with the bans, like fuck man

man i wrote a fat 1 hour long response to this but i lost it all right as i was about to post it

fuuuuck

yeah i feel you on the apathy thing

The outrage over the holocaust speech is manufactured. While theres alot to be outraged about, expect outrage over trump for even so much as a sneeze in the wrong direction.

i mean, im not apathetic entirely, but im like GEE, WELL, WHO WOULDA THUNK THAT THIS COULD HAPPENNNnnnNnnNnN in a fairly sardonic manner after bush-era executive powers were expanded if not preserved by OBama - and no one cared to say or do anytrhing about it besides anarchists and libertarians becuase they could trust a smiling democrat to have all that power and not abuse it. Even if he expanded NSA spying and made his nobel peace prize award into a farce by instigating wars, fueling the rise of ISIS and bombing the shit out of foreign countries and killing yemeni civilians at weddings..

And then a democrat majority senate lowered the bar for legislation to go through, creating a virtual slip-n-slide for republicans to leisurely get all their shit through, because fuck having foresight or caution.

A little over three years ago, Senator Mitch McConnell stood on the Senate floor and issued a warning to the Democrats who then controlled the majority.

“I say to my friends on the other side of the aisle, you’ll regret this,” McConnell, then the minority leader, told them. “And you may regret it a lot sooner than you think.”

At the urging of Majority Leader Harry Reid, Democrats had just voted along strict party lines to change the rules of the Senate, deploying what had become known in Washington as “the nuclear option.” McConnell and his Republican colleagues were furious. Under the new rules, presidential nominees for all executive-branch position—including the Cabinet—and judicial vacancies below the Supreme Court could advance with a simple majority of 51 votes. The rules for legislation were untouched, but the 60-vote threshold for overcoming a filibuster on nearly all nominations was dead.

As Donald Trump prepares to assume the presidency this afternoon flanked by Republican majorities in Congress, McConnell’s warning is looking more and more prescient. Trump may win Senate confirmation of his entire Cabinet, and while Democrats will oppose many of his nominees, it was their vote in November 2013 that helped pave the way for their success.

Democrats: “I wish congress and the senate wasn’t so slow and full of checks and balances that hold up new legislation”

*Monkey Paw Finger Retracts*

and the cherry on top of that was hillary clinton, a nominee no one wanted, made backroom deals to ensure she was the Democrat pick for Presidency in 2016, such as installing her 2008 campaign co-chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz as the new DNC chairwoman in 2011 in exchange for the previous chairperson, Tim Kaine to step down and be given the privilege of being her Vice President select. If you were confused why Kaine was chosen for that, there you go.

and that doesnt go into how Clinton was so smug and sure of her landslide victory, that she didnt bother campaigning at ALL at the level Sanders or Trump did. Hell, she didn’t even visit Wisconsin and that Blue state swung red for Trump last November along with many other economically depressed rust belt states desperate for someone to care about them.

And the DNC strategized using their media connections to lift up “pied piper” outsiders like donald trump to help destablize and undermine standard republican shoe-ins like Jeb Bush. Look how that went. And with a little help from wikileaks, all of this backfired into the current situation we have today.

And poor bernie. Those historic protest marches since Trump’s inauguration wouldve been greeaaattttt after bernie got fucked out of the nomination. Hell, it wouldve been great in 2012 when Ron Paul was fucked out of the GOP nomination, but no one cares about lolbertarians. However, they have the last laugh, their outrage over the corrupt RNC proceedings of Romney’s nomination transformed their “fuck it all, burn the whole system down” into unabashed support for authoritarians like Donald Trump, simply for the gratification of seeing the establishment Republicans panic and lose grasp of their own party.

But i feel my attitude over it all is really insufferable. Because i feel often my ranting into the ether pains my followers, when yea, no amount of shitposting would have changed much. Most people are actually pretty powerless, certainly those who read my shit or feel anxious, shocked and terrified.

But to that, i try to lay blame on liberal or corporate media for glossing over and ignoring the ills of Obama’s administration and helping create this delusion of the left being on the “right side of history” with smug liberal broadcasting like John Oliver’s “cmon, its 2015″ rhetoric. And yet, in 2017, it seems it’s actually the right wing who are indeed on the right side of history. And that’s why 2016 was the “WORST YEAR EVERRR” becuase peoples media fed delusions of eternal progressive destiny became so far removed from the reality on the ground that people’s collective bubbles of ignorance popped.

Not because they are dumb, but because they trusted media that regular omits shit that doesnt fit the media’s desired narrative

otehrwise, wihtout all that, most people couldve seen the writing on the wall and probably couldve organized and done something about it.

No amount of my posting of the left or really most people losing touch with the real narrative could have prevented that.

or something

idk

i wrote a better thing and this is thje best i can recollect of that.

now im at least a little positive because people, most people, are FINALLY engaged with the world around them and i wait to see what happens now.

@mrsrogerswrites

He nodded giving her permission as she kindly asked before she just pulled back the sheet. He was relieved he was wearing some PJ bottoms, even if the stripes reminded him of a prisoner. The word average stuck out for him, she couldve said normal, she wouldnt be the first person to make him feel like he wasnt normal but she didnt. Calling him faster than average made him smile softly, she made him feel normal and human in that moment which was rare for him to experience. Just like the difference between someone who ran everyday compared to someone who dodnt really run, there would be a difference but they were both human and normal and that's exactly how she made him feel. A feeling he truly wasnt used too.

He couldnt help but watch and listen to her as she pottered around and then opened the French doors, the cool air making him tingle but he welcomed the fresh air "thank you" his voice was quiet as not to fully disturb her.

"I guess Howard was right, if I had gone into the ice, I wouldve never been found. ...two weeks, hmm....here in this room. " he repeated the odd word as his mind processed her words. The world had kept turning without him, he wondered what had changed without him? Probably nothing much in such a short amount of time but he couldnt imagine sleeping two weeks away.

Not only was she telling him everything but she was giving him a choice about things and he appreciated that more than she realised. He realised he was staring at her, the slight flushing of his cheeks as he looked away momentarily "thank you..." she knew she was wondering now what he was thanking her for "for not using the whole 'its classified' or 'we will tell you later when youre rested' speech.... " he had to stop himself from smirking as he said those parts of words in an impression of Howard a little, unintentionally. "....it means alot someone just telling me straight without all the riddles attached. I appreciate it"

Straightening up a little in bed, again his eyes drifted over her , taking in her every smirk, smile and gesture. As soon as she mentioned bathing and her not staring , he swallowed , god he hoped he wasnt blushing, he really couldnt tell so cleared his throat "I....." he tilted his head a little to smell himself and that's when he felt the scraping against his shirt cupping his chin, he started stroking his fingers over his face to feel a stubble "huh, that's new" he spoke more to himself but he was sure she could hear too if she wanted to.

As she looked through the wardrobe and choice was truly given to him "clean, food then Howard otherwise I might not get a chance too" he offered her a smile which soon disappeared as his eyes caught sight of the crutch leaning against the wall like Tiny Tim's. He sighed a little, to go from being so certain you were going to die to now going to try and walk again... "I dont suppose you know how to use it? Maybe I should ask if you're a good catcher first though as I'm going to fall flat on my face I'm sure" now he shyly smiled, he felt so comfortable around her and that was definetely the first. Taking on a breath he tried to Pep himself up.

Sitting up he hung his normal leg over the side of the bed, and grabbed his other leg and groaned as he picked it up and slid it to the edge "I'm sorry, I'm not the best patient m I have no idea how to do this or any of it but.....I trust you, can you tell me what to do?" He smiled gentlemanly. He wasnt one to get help because he didnt want to be a burden or put on someone else but with her, he felt like it was okay and he would not feel a burden as much "I'm a bit useless" he chucked a little.

"Maybe he has a thing for redheads, I know I do." Natasha turned in the direction of the voice as she wore a stern look on her face, Howard Stark of all people had been sent to bring her in on this. "And dressed like that? He's a man at the end of the day. I can see why they chose you for this." In all honesty Natasha wasn't too keen on taking on a 'babysitting' mission right now. Of course she had heard of Steve Rogers, she had seen him around from time to time or read the latest story on America's hero but to be appointed as his nurse. It wasn't really something she relished.

She had the skills, becoming an assassin meant she needed to know basic first aid but like with every task set out to her , she always went the extra step and had learned a few medical procedures along the way. Walking with Howard towards the newly built medical facility she still hadn't spoken a word to him. With Howard you usually didn't get a word in anyways. "Don't let his size fool you, he's a total pussy cat. He just needs someone to look after him , you'll breeze through this."

"Im sure whatever he needs I'll be more than capable of supplying, as long as he isn't stubborn. I detest stubborn men." Her tone was serious but Howard's laugh almost caused her to laugh with him.... almost. "Im sure he will be the perfect patient, just don't let him escape back out into the world before he's physically and mentally ready." She nodded at his words, even if she was wondering how on earth she could possibly stop him if he wanted to leave. She had many methods of detaining people but this was Captain America and she was no longer an assassin.

"Any problems, get in touch. Have fun." His smarmy smirk at those last words made her roll her eyes, watching him leave she turned and made her way into the medical facility and was soon shown the way to his room. Lifting his medical report she flicked through it briefly, nothing major in way of injuries other than a suspected broken leg. Her brow rose as she mumbled to herself "super soldier, huh?" It seemed not even an enhanced soldier could escape broken bones.

Slipping into his room it was dimly lit with only a small lamp, noticing he was asleep or out cold she placed the file down and walked over to check up on him. Blonde hair, blue eyes, or so she imagined as they were closed, a few scratches and bruises on his face. Maybe this was going to be a lot easier than she first imagined. She moved to the chair and taking a seat she opened back up the file, time to swot up on her new, and first, patient.

ok really long post ahead, sorry for mobile users since i dont think the spoiler break works on mobile iirc

i finally finished the main quest for fo4.. um.... was that it?? that was kinda my first reaction lol. ok i have SO many thoughts as i always do when i finish a game.. maybe more for this one tho

so i ended up doing both the minutemen and bos endings because they split relatively late in the story so i just made two separate saves... they were basically the same except i thought following liberty prime was kinda fun lol. i liked watching him pick up a behemoth and then just throwing it to the ground

so now that i’ve like... finished the game.... i guess i can see why people complain that fo4 is more of an fps than an rpg

like.... i’ve dumped a ton of hours into this game, but that’s mostly because i’ve spent a lot of time building settlements lol. besides that, the story does seem to be lacking a bit. i think it definitely had potential, but nothing was really fleshed out that well... like if i try to think back on what i did, i’m like.. ??

maybe part of that is because four main factions was a little ambitious? i just feel like there wasn’t much opportunity to actually get to know each faction and like actually feel like you were involved with them

1) minutemen - i mean, you got a shitton of radiant quests from preston (which drove me crazy very early on and got modded out)... and then what? you claim settlements and that’s about it. reclaiming the castle is as deep as the story gets. besides that all you have is radiant quests

also there were like... zero named characters besides preston who were actually really involved with the minutement. like there was ronnie shaw but she just ends being a merchant later, and i didn’t even get the proper armory quest from her because my game glitched out. so basically she was just a unique merchant for me

and like... who else is there?? there’s the sanctuary crew and some named settlers but none of them are really part of the “minutemen.” so like you didn’t really get to talk to members of the faction and stuff and actually feel like you were immersed in the story. like i know that the story is that you’re rebuilding the minutemen so there’s supposed to be no one but preston, but later on as you claim settlements and expand the minutement and stuff there’s still nothing... no new story, quest, npcs... you have to do some dungeon clearing quests for some of the named settlers but that’s literally it.

i liked their general “for the people” thing but like... they never really expanded on it... they did end up being one of the two factions that i sided with because of their cause but i just think the story (or lack thereof, really) with them was pretty bland

2) railroad - well i was considering joining them very early on cause i do think their cause is decent, i like deacon, and i accidentally spoiled for myself that danse is a synth (i like danse because i mean you know me and my beef)... but then i felt like they were a little too focused on the synths. like that was literally just their entire cause. and i just felt like that was just too narrow.

and you met these characters that you really just.... met and then nothing ever happened later with them! like high rise, mister tims, idk what the point of drummer boy was, etc..

and again there were just a ton of radiant quests... at least they were all finite, but like there was what? helping that one safehouse (forgot the name), mila quests, and pam’s caches. the ticonderoga quest was kinda interesting but i wish there was something more besides “here’s ticonderoga. oh whoops it gets destroyed later. haha!”

3) institute - well i disliked them right off the bat because they were the ones who not only MURDERED MY HUSBAND but also KIDNAPPED AND BRAINWASHED MY CHILD (yes i consider it brainwashing)????? like come on. i take this stuff very personally man. it’s the same reason why i joined the stormcloaks in skyrim (before realizing what a bunch of racist assholes they are but.... i digress) cause i was like WHY tf would i join a group that tried to execute me with absolutely zero cause

so i’m just like why would i join a group that murdered my husband (right in front of my eyes i might add) and kidnapped my child. hello??? like yeah i hated the fact that they gave you a goddamn baby in the first place, but since i had it i was like WELL I AM OUTRAGED THAT THEY DID THIS TO MY CHILD.

then there was the whole deal with them actually taking real people (and presumably murdering them) and replacing them with synth copies. i HATED that a lot and it was a big turnoff on top of all of my personal grievances against them. their elitist attitude towards the commonwealth was annoying as fuck as well as their manufacturing of gen 3 synths for what was basically slave labor. also there were like random conversations that would occur between scientists and synths and the scientists were such assholes.

oooooh and the part where you ask shaun why he decided to let you out of your cryo pod and he’s like “well... i suppose that i just wanted to see what would happen” and i was like BITCH WHAT?????? EXCUSE ME?????? THAT’S YOUR REASON?? 

like the shaun/father thing was an interesting twist in the story... but it def was not enough to make me want to join the institute. esp with that craphole reason that he gave me for letting me out of the cryo pod. and like the dude is basically a stranger to you, why tf would you just join the institute bc he’s “”””family””””? i suppose they tried to make it a more difficult dilemma by really trying to push your character’s story in the “i’m looking for my son!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” direction before you actually find out what happened to shaun, but i didnt find that a very compelling plot point in the first place.... so it had pretty much no bearing on my decision

also. the synth shaun. he made the synth shaun which is like super weird and a little creepy. like this kid’s never gonna age.... i mean 50 years from now he’s gonna be a 60 y-o in a 10 y-o’s body!!!!!!!! who tf thought that was a good idea?? i mean i’m on the “gen 3 synths are truly sentient” train cause the game basically does nothing to show you otherwise. you have institute scientists telling you that they aren’t, but literally everything in the game shows you that they are. also danse

and then their cause... they say they’re the “best hope for humanity” and stuff but like what are they actually doing to help humanity. the only beneficial thing they did was create gmos like that huge pumpkin (while replacing roger ww in the process which as i mentioned before was something i hated). besides that, wtf are they doing besides hiding away in their blindingly white laboratories experimenting w/ synths?? 

anyway yeah i hated the institute but i guess in terms of “story” they did a little better than the railroad and minutemen. but they honestly got a helping hand from the fact that shaun was involved with them and a large part of the story early on was looking around for information about shaun and being able to ask npcs about the institute. however once you proceeded past a certain point they also fell into a very boring routine of having a handful of radiant quests available and not much else involving them

4) bos - well.... i def felt like they were super culty when i first went onto the prydwen. and i really dont like their stance on gen 3s and non-feral ghouls. but i do like that theyre out and about clearing the commonwealth of super mutants, ferals, and raiders lol. 

i really really hate the whole danse thing tho and how close-minded they are about him :( i did see that there was actually cut content where you could challenge maxson and danse would get his rank back and i kinda wish that they actually implemented that. i dont really want the elder role but i’d like the chance to do something where you could shift the bos’s opinion on gen 3s, even if only slightly... like THAT would be a good story element, come on! 

but w/e. i really didnt like them at first but i like their aesthetic compared to everyone else and their general cause (at least theyre not like opening fire on the slog, right... ?) ..

anyway i might just stick with their ending as my “main” playthrough cause afaict they’re not much diff from the minutemen ending except i get the sentinel rank, and you actually have some named people that you can interact with about your choice.

ok im actually really tired of writing this post... i actually have so many more thoughts haha but i dunno if i’ll be able to get them all out because as if on cue i’m getting tired around midnight.. anyway

yeah so the story was eh and i wish it went more in depth. like, even though i wasnt super fond of fnv’s story, i did think it was more immersive and detailed... i think fo4 had a lot of potential but sadly didn’t quite deliver. tbh i think the game couldve gone without the railroad if four factions really did just spread them too thin while in development.

like i think the part of the story with kellogg was good... the whole thing about trying to find the identity of this guy, searching his home, searching for him, looking through his memories, etc was pretty interesting. i liked how we were able to see his backstory and something about him that wasn’t just “dude who murdered my husband.” like that was all good stuff! but the story REALLY deteriorated after that... i mean you just end up having to kill the guy and then he’s just out of the story completely.

oh and like related to that--what was that whole deal with nick speaking in kellogg’s voice briefly after you finish in the memory den??? why would they just throw in a line like that and not expand on it at all???? that bugged me SO MUCH because again there was so much potential there!!! if kellogg had somehow gotten into nick’s mind you could be presented with so many new options. like how do you get him out? can you get him out? who do you go to for help? etc etc etc NOT JUST SOME THROWAWAY LINE THAT ACTUALLY DOES NOTHING AHHH

speaking of which. fo4 seems to do that a LOT. like maybe it’s recency bias bc i really dont remember all the details of fnv to be able to compare, but i feel like fo4 has a ton of little throwaway things that are interesting details but aren’t expanded on at all. like not even a little bit. i think there needs to be a certain balance between details and mini stories... like fo4 dangled SO many of these little details in your face that you just never got to expand on at all.. i love an interesting world where you can discover things that dont really have an impact on the main story or anything but these scraps just drove me crazy.

also there were like... no vaults??? i feel like fnv had a lot more... fo4 has vault 95 for cait (and a kinda boring purpose/story imo). the vault of triggermen where you find nick. the vault for refining human genes. vault 81. and that’s it.. i felt like i spent a lot more time in vaults in fnv? and they had some creepier stories/experiments too

ok like my brain... is really slowing down but i will at least get a few more thoughts down before i go to sleep

SETTLEMENTS. LORD HELP ME. again, a great concept with so much potential but poor execution. i really enjoyed settlements--with mods. vanilla settlements are just so horribly lacking. for one thing not being able to clean up your settlement is just terrible. you really would just have to leave piles of trash, garbage, debris, 200-YEAR-OLD SKELETONS, etc, lying around your settlement!!!!! where you’re supposed to have people living!!

settlers themselves also have some pretty terrible ai. theyre stupid af. their pathing is godawful. i am extremely proud of them when they actually are able to successfully navigate a structure i built because it is such a goddamn struggle for them! like they’re literally coded to take the shortest possible straight line path so i get tons of them walking into walls trying to get to their destination instead of walking around them, going through doorways, using stairs etc (yes theyre all navmeshed)... it’s actually so aggravating

also settlements themselves are incredibly and frustratingly buggy. the resources getting messed up in your pip boy bug is super annoying. there’s a shit ton of other bugs with them that i’m just too tired to list but i’m like ahhh god i feel like i’m playing a beta version of this shit! also what’s up with them spawning on top of buildings in sanctuary?

ok yeah i have a lot of crticisms for the game so it may not seem like i enjoyed it but i actually did. i think the story was decent up until after you finished kellogg’s part, cause after that it just got really boring (which is lame because seriously, the story gets boring after you can start decided which faction/s you want to join??)

but mods def contributed a lot to my enjoyment, esp my settlement mods... like most of my mods are settlement mods lol. so like... if i played vanilla fo4 i do doubt that i’d have enjoyed it as much. i do actually like the fps aspect of it, but i think there are too many places that are overloaded with enemies.. so you’re constantly fighting shit. it gets kind of annoying after a while.

OH THAT JUST REMINDED ME. GUNNERS. another thing that had potential but ended up just being... ??? raiders but fancier??? you could literally switch out all the gunners for raiders and nothing would change. when i first encountered them i was really excited cause i thought it was a new side faction but they’re literally just... raiders. but fancy. it’s disappointing af. there’s no story behind them... you can get into gunners plaza and find some holotapes from the leader and some members but then there’s nothing else! you don’t ever get to find out what the story is behind all of it! again with dangling some details in front of your face and then just never expanding on it at all. ugh gunners were seriously a big disappointment for me.

okay i’m actually done now cause i’m tired and typing this out actually took a lot of time lol. i still have a ton of thoughts but i need to sleep. lame
