#since theyre not in HD

[a-monster-in-paris]

Ah! So photogenic!

[prilita]

the fuck??????? 😥until a few months ago, i was able to use the hd recording quality option on screenrec. the first time i used it which was a few years ago, it offered ginormous storage. now it's all part of a premium plan and im supposed to use 740p quality with 2gb online storage forever.

you get it. tech is going to suck on people like maggots on rot for profit profit profit etc etc. this is just genuinely sad. apps that were perfectly fine are now nightmare ghouls screeching subscribe subscribe subscribe!!!! not donate but subscribe!!

alright bye im too sad to cuss with my whole pussy now.

[satsuha]

o right i can now say i've played every 3D loz game 👍 starting with botw in 2020 i played the other 6 almost back to back starting with totk from may to november 2023... it was a really nice experience like as someone who kept insisting i was too much of a noob to play anything that isn't surmountable with grinding i definitely feel more confident (?) now

i think my favourite is wind waker it's the first of the older games i played since i always liked the toon link style but it's just so charming and had the best ganon and king of hyrule by far imo... twilight princess comes very close for being a very Full feeling hyrule and i'm appreciating ocarina of time more as time passes for the foundations it laid for both story and gameplay

here is a handy little visual for which ones ive played and the order since all my homies love charts and diagrams

i cant believe the day but i finally got a full tower pc. bought it already built and at a considerable discount of some 320 dollars off. its fucking huge and theres so many things going on inside... i was initially planning on choosing the parts myself but finding the graphics card was so hard and everyone else convinced me to just buy it built and honestly? good. id probably have fucked this up so badly by myself

i cant use it yet bc i took too long to buy the monitor that was also on sale and now its regular price -_- tho i managed to find a discount used one for now. well see how that goes since ill get it tomorrow. i tested it on out living room tv and it had some kaspersky thingy open and like thats so cute. i hope they left some treats in the browsing history for me to search through before i wipe it clean

[t0bey]

sorry!! I meant the new storymode chapter for idv that came out!

ohh i see! ty for clarifying ^^ forgive me bc this is gonna be long and i have MANY thoughts

i actually really loved this episode a lot?? in terms of actual gameplay content i think i even enjoyed this more than TOR, (excluding out of game elements of the event like the animations) and considering my main gripes with episode 1 was how short it was, this ep being 50+ minutes in total definitely solved that problem i had!!

i really enjoy the pacing of everything so far, even if im kind of confused on if our choices actually impact anything? i think part of it is explained by orpheus clearly trying to manipulate what alice does in certain parts of the game like confronting frederick, but others seem like its just the option of choices getting in the way of the game's v obvious linear storytelling lol. i hope that the choices that affect relationships actually serve a purpose long-term

i was wondering how they were going to include mary in the main lore considering for years she's only really been a retelling of marie antoinette's history, but honestly? i love that they fleshed her out into her own character being mary de capet instead of just marie antoinette, and she has her own lore with the racecourse and frederick too. i loved the chase between her and alice sm, and it was interesting how it turned out that in actuality it was *frederick* that alice was hallucinating as mary

anyways mary showing up in HD and having a badass entrace was very cool

also i think everyone knew frederick was going to be taken out somehow and i like that its very open ended what happened to him so far? personally think he might've gotten killed or something after alice fainted at the racecourse, since his stuff was still in his room + Norton is very obviously his replacement at the end (him sitting in fred's chair). plus i think game participants only get replaced if they die, like what happened with servais replacing murro after he got killed by naib

I was REALLY hyped to see the secret medicine lab return from TOR!! and i like that alice used the same rat testing method detective did back then too lol. what really piqued my interest was realizing that when she starts hallucinating and runs away from fool's gold, it wouldn't make sense bc she wouldn't have met him until breakfast the next day. but then when you look at the figure who forced her to drink the drugs to knock her out, if u look close enough it's clearly Norton.

seems like he is working with orpheus at least to the degree that he knows what to do down in the lab by himself, which is interesting and explains why alice would hallucinate FG before actually being introduced to norton the next day.

also considering orpheus chloroformed alice while she was hallucinating before she woke up strapped to the chair and norton made her forget what happened, p much spells theyre working together imo?

overall i really like that this episode leaves you with just as many questions as it did answers (mainly about frederick) and im very curious how they explore melly and orpheus's ACTUAL involvement in the manor games, considering its p obvious theyre both lying to alice in the bedroom scene. have my thoughts on orpheus's actual deal w the forest ranger he mentions but this post is already long enough lol. i hope melly gets more spotlight next episode 🙏

[girls4etho]

went back and found all the ez charts i was missing i am so good at game

heres my full stats rn btw ^_^ absolutely no idea why i have 7 more hd clears ??

[souvlki]

finally got to wafch maxxxine nd bitch wtf iy was so anticlimactic. i am so disappointed.

reviwe n some spoilers under

it was so far frm what i expected (except the ending w the dad n his cult thingy) the ending felt rlly mild nd lacked intensity and i do think the usgae of guns is what made it feel that way. i expectef knives bc i thought it wld be a slasher film given the setting jn the 80s when serial killers were so common at that time and i exoected thm to do that kindof trope. i do like the few references frm pearl and x i got excited everytime i recognzied yhem.

i do hav to rewatch it cuz i watched a pirated vers of it since theyr not airing it in my country :(( so i hav to wait for the hd n actually appreciate the visuals n understand waht they were saying in the movi a lil more. but maxxxine wld be my least fav. i am so sad. it fekt very empty.

still lov the trilogy tho n mia goth ofc

[lautakwah]

hey ling, hope ur doing well and was wondering if i could ask some advice - totally ok if no but. im currently trying to screen record a cdrama right now so i can rewatch it later w/o paying, but i only recorded one episode and it's taken up all my icould and google drive storage 😭 i was wondering if u knew anything i could do, since i feel like r educated in the ways of 🏴‍☠️ 😭

screenrecording is the least efficient way of doing it i think :( ive never tried to do it for more than maybe a few minutes-long clips (most are around 30-40 seconds!), and doing it bloats your memory while also being worse quality. now the last thing may not be a huge deal (i personally dont mind if sth is 4k or 480/720p, esp since older films and dramas simply are harder to find in full hd), but storage efficiency is what you're here for so!!

delete things (files, programs, games, etc) you don't use (anymore), as that probably already opens up a ton of space. there are programs that can help you with looking up which files and shit you use/open the least.

when pirating, ofc use a trusted site and client but also check which files are the smallest and just get that one (unless youre a gifmaker or a real stickler for hd, 720p will suffice imo). tv series in my experience run about 20-30gb if theyre 1080, so even smaller if it's not as hd! google drive only gives 15gb but i think if you compress it into a zip file it miiiiiight fit? if not you can just split it between gdrive and your icloud :)!

an alternatuve option would be to find a streaming wrbsite that had the series but not paywalled, it's less work but the downside is that you can't access this offline (the main reason i like owning (digital) copies)

last but not least, and unfortunately this is the best way to have enough storage: invest in an external hard disk. if you're planning on having more tv series (and perhaps movies) on ur pc/laptop, the best and easiest way to make sure you (almost) never run out of storage is to just... buy more! i splurged on a 5tb external hard disk with bday-christmas money but obviously even having a 256gb/512gb one will be enough if you're not obsessed with putting entire filmographies on there like me djfngmv even getting a bunch of 32/64/128gb usb sticks will prob help out, and while it absolutely is an investment, if you're already paying for a subscription this is a surefire way to make sure you get your money's worth in case they take it off the platform or whatever (looking at how guardian got the boot from literally every streaming platform including yt 😭😭😭)

anyway i hope this helps!! :3

[shiftyyyy]

Howdy, two things for this ask. Number one, adore your art. Kinda feels like a proper HD remaster of the Sprunki sprites with the strong edge shading, all around shape of the bodies, the arms are well input, and you translated the expressions damn near perfectly. Dead Tunner's face looks like he's actually dead or heavily disoriented, and not like he's mildly confused. Keep it up, and if I could, I'd commission you.

Second is some epic facts about my version of Tunner.

He's a full blown cowboy, and the strongest of the group. Because he has many guns, and he can shoot them with damn near perfect accuracy.

He's the reason why Mr. Sun (A major antagonist) is dead. Sun killed the cattle at his ranch, Tunner stayed up to see who did, Mr. Sun came again, tried killing Tunner, Tunner showed Mr. Sun his 2nd amendment rights, and now Mr. Sun is dead.

[away-ward]

Thank you for your reply, KO! This is the anon from #asked and answered 176.

1 yes i like your fics, i like no apologies the most because we had insights to emmy's career and life in sf. Emmy might find herself boring, but ive always been a busy body reader so i would eat up everything about her personal and professional life in sf. I still hated will there, but thanks to you i hated him 5% less

2 "Ummm. I do think it’s a little weird that you’ve read multiple PD books, and even finished the DN series… especially since you were looking forward to Will. Because I hated Will for the first three books and if I weren’t curious about Emory, I wouldn’t have finished the series at all."

KO, you've underestimated a loyal hate reader's journey of hate reading 😂 i love pd's writing and i love some of their books that were not DN because of the chemistry of the main lovers (theyre not bad as many have said actually), but i still hated the ongoing misogynistic dynamic that they always had in their books. Its like having an author that you majorly like what they do, but their side mistakes were big enough to irritate you so you remember them, kinda thing. Do you have these kinds of author that feel like this towards? To answer this simply: pd's books are like worms for brain for me. Like when i read books by Colleen hoover, or hd carlton, sophie lark, lauren asher, or susanne valnti &peckham. It's the kind of toxicity you need from time to time but still get mad and disappointed by your low expectation at their shit ass plot and mfcs and fmcs anyway, yk. 

KO, i cant lie, im just a hater first, a hate reader second and a reader third 🤣 once i stop, i cnat quit. Like damon torrance, that punk ass devils night philosopher said, sometimes you just want to feel everything including the ugly ones you know, and like michael crist the logician, you just gotta own it, before it owns you, GOD HAHAHAH i cant believe im using them as my metaphors right now!! Please bare with me here.

3 "I also find it equally weird that your first impulse after finishing a series you hate is to go to the tag of the character you hated the most? I mean, I’ve definitely clicked on hot-takes I know I’m going to disagree with and hate-read things, but it’s not my go-to."

hmm? KO, i think... youre just not as toxic of a reader than me, ohmygod, im so sorry! 🤣☠️ im really of those people that will immideately look up one and two star ratings on goodreads so that i know my feelings and thoughts were validated by other haters, lmao! Do not mind me, its not a good thing, but like damon torrance said, live, love, laugh, and hate, you know 🤩

4 thank you so much for your recs, i also actually grew up watching hana yori dongo! I watched the kdrama version too but idk if i'll watch the thai version. I have less patient for dramas now unfortunately, and the last drama i watched was "celebrity" on netflix, and i still havent finished it, even after 3 month ☠️ I used to love kdramas and lee minho was so popular back then, so i also watched him in "the heirs" too. Ohmygod his hairsyles in both dramas (boys over flowers and the heirs) were so funny, but i remember enjoying these stories a lot. I believe these two kdramas were released during the time where kdramas were having a lot more angsty romantic relationship than platonic ones and they both stood out among many others, not only because of lee minho, park shinhye and bunch of k-idols acting there, but also because of the friendships and platonic relationships shown that were fun to watch. It's a break from other dramas like moon embracing the sun, or my love from another star that were romance-heavy, yk. But tbh, i prefer my love from another star and moon embracing the sun more than bof/hyd and the heirs. If there are two recs i'd like to give you, they would be "hotel del luna" and "sky castle". God damn, i cried in every single episode watching these two dramas. They really touched my soul, everything was so good!

5 i havent scrolled through your blog and notice your recs for sempre, but from your recs, i checked and saw its goodreads rating and it's pretty high! Maybe i'll check it out if im interested. Seems like a mafia gang story? I need to be in the mood to be reading mafia stories because my first ones were from reading kpop mafia fanfics from years ago and the latest and the last one were the made series by danielle lori. The made series were entertaining but i noticed that i didnt care much about mafias? Hahahahah idk, and idc much about vampires, and wolf stories either, but i like faes. Not Sarah j maas type of faes, but holly black's and cassandra clare's. The ones that are beautiful, creepy, complicated and loves/have to lie but cant. So yeah, thanks for recommending sempre!

6 as for alex, im tired of her, and honestly i dont want to think about her anymore. I'll pretend nightfall alex never existed, and nightfall will grayson fucking died a gruesome death, becoming of two stupid selfish best friends who think theyre the only suffering in this world. You know this reminded me of a quote by madeline miller's Circe that really fits will's selfish behaviour especially in blackchurch: “He showed me his scars, and in return he let me pretend that I had none.” thats exctly how i felt throughout blackchurch. Because emmy always had to heavylift whatever bullshit that alexwillaydin put out to her. And as someone who was so used to just move forward and not caring about her small losses because she had suffered worse, emmy just had to act like she was okay with all the little hurts and cruelty cause by people, just because she loved them/will and wanted to not give up on him and give him a second chance, because he was hurting and she understood that he cared then (🙄). Good thing, she admitted she was at fault partly too, but god, i hated when she felt like she need to go above and beyond for a man who admitted didnt care enough about her. Gods, these mf men need therapy frfr.

7 "I truly am sorry that it was such a bad experience for you. You’re welcome to stick around, but I’m sure since you hated so much, you’re ready to move on after unloading like that. But it’s all good either way. I hope you’re on to better and better things." 

No need to be sorry, but you're right, i'm starting some new reads right now, and idk why, but kandi steiner, liz tomforde and laura pavlov really do be hitting with their releases!! Like their stories are not dark romance so tat cleansed me from devils night series a bit, and they are so fun to read! They gave me melanie harlow's vibes. If anyone's interested, i suggest checking out Blindside by Kandi Steiner, Right Move by Liz Tomforde, and all of these four authors backlogs tbh. Kandi Steiner even have like a college frat series? Which i havent checked out but it sounds fun, and its called Palm South University series.

I dont have anything else to add as well, thank you for reading my rants, have a nice day! I think this will be my last one, so goodbye!

KO, you've underestimated a loyal hate reader's journey of hate reading

Hey!! Okay. This is very helpful! Thank you for the insight. I’m not a stranger to hate watching/reading and (used to) do it frequently. And I would complain to all my friends about all the horrible stuff that was happening, but they knew I was having a good time.

It’s harder when I don’t really know who I’m talking to, to tell if I should take it seriously or if they’re enjoying the trash like me. We’re completely on the same page in that case so ignore very thing I said about not getting it. If you’re having a good time hating it, I got you!

i think... youre just not as toxic of a reader than me, ohmygod, im so sorry!

I might not be anymore but I definitely used to be, ngl. And I don’t know if you can end up running a DN blog without having some toxicity left in you??? I mean. We’re not here because this work was a masterpiece, am I right?

I don’t currently have any authors I must read/hate-read. Like I’ve said, I haven’t had the time to get into a lot of new stuff lately, and my tastes have changed. They could always change back, since reading is a mood-based activity. For now, though, I’ve left the dark and toxic behind for something that makes me feel good about the world.

i also actually grew up watching hana yori dongo! I watched the kdrama version too but idk if i'll watch the thai version. I have less patient for dramas now unfortunately

Oh my god the Kdrama! It was my first Kdrama. Fond memories. And no worries, I haven’t touched any drama in years. Truthfully, I think the only reason I can get into the Thai version is because of the familiarity.

but from your recs, i checked and saw its goodreads rating and it's pretty high! Maybe i'll check it out if im interested. Seems like a mafia gang story?  

It is, kinda? But it’s really layered, with a good plot and great characters. I could ramble about it for a while, but I don’t think anyone is interested currently, so I won’t burden you with it 😂

holly black's and cassandra clare's

I did really like the folk of the air series, and I read the spiderwick chronicles in middle school, but I haven’t gone back to holly black in a long time. I did want to read the new one but haven’t had the chance.

--

Oof Alex. Now that I know where you’re coming from, I can completely agree. I’ve been re-reading and analyzing her intro in Nightfall and how weird it was; how it derailed everything in the worse way. Sometimes, when writers are stuck on where to go with a scene or plot, there’s a tactic that’s recommended: have someone walk in with a gun. It causes enough of a upheaval to keep the plot moving. I’m not sure if that was what Alex was supposed to do, but it really didn’t work for me for a lot of reasons.

Because emmy always had to heavylift whatever bullshit that alexwillaydin put out to her. And as someone who was so used to just move forward and not caring about her small losses because she had suffered worse, emmy just had to act like she was okay with all the little hurts and cruelty cause by people,

Yes! She had to work so hard just for a little, and what killed me the most is reading her scenes where she agrees with them.

She has the moments of clarity, where it seems she remembers why she did what she did, and she's not sorry, and that she wasn’t to blame for what happened to Will. Then next minute… she’s back to blaming herself for no reason? I’ve said many times before that Emory’s guilt is misplaced, and at certain times, it can’t be ignored that it was really PD pushing this “Emory deserves this” narrative, but I just can’t jive with it at all. There's a question on her good reads page where she says that she thinks Will is the most justified in his hatred.

And just... no. He's not. Literally none of them were justified in their hatred. They had the right to feel wronged. Sometimes we feel wronged, even if we carry some of the blame for what happened. But to say they were justified is just over the line. I really wish PD had more balance when it come to assigning blame. I think this series would have benefitted if one of the themes of the story was that everyone makes decisions, and right or wrong, we have to living with them. These are the consequences.

Like their stories are not dark romance so tat cleansed me from devils night series a bit, and they are so fun to read!

Yeah, it’s always nice to find something new that works! Thanks for the recs. I hope if anyone is looking, they’ll look them up. Sorry I didn’t have more strong female friendships, but they can be tough to find in todays romance climate.

I totally get you not coming back. It was absolutely a blast talking to you and thanks for the clarification! It always helps.

Have a great one, KO

current obsession: honestly i dont think i have one at present…. i’m into a lot of things but i don’t think i’d call them Obsessions. i do get obsessed with certain aspects of these things and some of them make me crazy etc etc but it’s mostly in sporadic and short-lived bursts . im not consistently engaging in a way that the word ‘obsession’ implies. so

tagging @saccharinarocks @partitioyellowil @gluegunshots @sofhtie + anybody else who sees and wants to talk about what theyre into :)

[icras]

ive been trying to make myself go and get a diagnosis but like where do i even start??? i looked it up and its just like oh yea find a psychiatrist!! okay… where. like how? do i email them? ig but also idk where to even find one and it has to be in my city too cuz theres no way im going out of town for anything. ALSO i can barely make myself read like instructions for assignments and yall want me to somehow dig up this like mystery information?? not to mention that even when i find a website that specialises in this kind of stuff i cant find what im looking for i mean idk what im looking for in the first plce and THEN IT ALSO HAPPENS THAT THEY HAVE LIKE A TON OF LITTLE PATHS TO DIFFERENT PARTS OF THE SITE AND THEYRE ALL CALLED SOMETHING SIMILAR AND I CANT DIFFERENTIATE THEM RAAAAH

i hate this fuckass thing and also the fact that my parents have been STRONGLY DISCOURAGING ME FROM GETTING A DIAGNOSIS FOR YEARS AND TO THINK THAT I COULD HAVE HD ONE THIS WHOLE TIME ITD MAKE SO MUCH STUFF EASIER

so yea the thing is since theres been this like uproar of adhders people dont tend to believe me at all so yea i think ill just go to my doctor and like demand help idk what else to do finding a psychiatrist myself is borderline impossible so yea

Like I know we all love making ADHD seem cool but like, don't forget it's actually a disability? My ADHD is bad enough I've nearly been evicted for forgetting to mail the rent check to the property manager, I've forgotten to pay the utility bills and had my water or power get turned off or had to pay fines bcs I missed a credit card payment. Once I was supposed to cat sit for a friend and I lost the house key she gave me but didn't realize until she was already out of town, and she had to call the apartment office to get someone to give me the spare so her cats would have food for the week. When I'm unmedicated I can't even get myself to shower half the time, forget eating or cleaning. Before I started living with my fiance I'd just like, not eat for days because I didn't have anyone to remind me to eat or go buy me food. I've forgotten to turn the stove off so many times and ruined kettles and tbh been DAMN fucking lucky the house didn't burn down. I've done stupid, impulsive shit that's nearly gotten me KILLED. I can't remember to close the shower curtain reliably even through my fiance points out every single time I forget, and he's almost out of soap rn bcs for the last MONTH neither of us have been able to remember to order more once we get out of the shower.

I've had such bad memory my entire life that to this day someone suggesting I forgot something because I simply didn't care enough is a legitimate trigger that, in the worst cases, makes me have a breakdown.

I get that for some of you this is just something that makes studying hard or you forget to take a pee break when you're playing Minecraft or whatever, that's still a valid struggle and you do deserve help and understanding, but like, ADHD is a disability. It's disabling. It's not impossible to improve and learn coping skills, meds help a lot, there are great accommodations out there(LIKE CLEANING SERVICES), but not every case of ADHD is the same, and a lot of them are pretty ugly ngl, and just because you managed to do something doesn't mean someone else is gonna be able to manage it too, or that they're being lazy for struggling. And that obviously doesn't mean ADHD people have a free pass to never work on themselves and make everyone cater to their every need or whatever, but we do deserve some understanding when we explain that our disability is actually disabling in ways that aren't palatable to you. So like, idk, maybe don't immediately recoil in horror when you find out that someone with ADHD can't keep their house clean. And for fucks sake don't ridicule them for it.

[rainyskies-tw]

A completely unqualified robotics motor tier list.

disclaimers: the list is only legal FRC motors for 2024. I do not have first hand knowledge of any of these motors, consider this a vibes based tier list.

here is a screenshot of the full list.

andymark motors (except snow blower)

All kind of the same, underpowered for today, but I kinda like em.

Snowblower

No.

Banebots rs550

Just get the andymark 550 brushed motors, they are much better apparently.

CIM

Yes. It's been legal and in use since 2002 for a reason. Better options have come along, but it's not bad.

falcon 500

If you have them, and they work, theyre great, if you don't, you can't get them.

KOP automotive motors

No.

Nidec

Not actually good, but a great meme motor. It has CHRP now so it has a use.

Venom

Actually a good idea, just that BLDC motors are here to stay

REV HD Hex

It's an FTC motor on the FRC legal list for some reason. Why?

REV NEO/550/ Vortex

Good stuff. Don't cook em and you're golden.

Vex BAG + mini CIM

Good if you needed a CIM, but smaller. Also like the falcon, you can't buy em

Kraken

Good, but the new spline is going to cause headaches for everyone.

Rs775

I mean sure.

Linear actuators

Very specific, but good if used right

Fans

Fan.

Hard drive motors

How did you put a hard drive on your robot, and how is it still spinning.

Servos

Same as linear actuators, if you can use them well

Everything else

You didn't get a choice so eh.

Thanks for reading!

Hi!! Im the one who asked abt the Radiohead shirt! Yea it was an after party shirt (i think)!! Btw if you can (or want to) can u take some hd photos of the design (front and back if theres a back one)? I'm trying to painstakingly make a bootleg of the shirt since i know theyre not producing the shirt anymore + i live far away from anyone whos selling the legit ones + im definitely not gonna resell it + im p sure its a limited edition after party shirt, so. Also is the shirt u have a crewneck? Bc the one in reddit and the one that thom wore is a crewneck too! Hope the one u have is legit tho thatll be so cool!!

here you go! no mine isn’t a crewneck T_T mine probably isn’t legit then… sorry about how wrinkly it is lol i haven’t ironed it yet

[laisai]

I am in so much pain tonight (flare up 😭) and I hd horrible insomnia last night (only slept 4 hours) so im just

anyway trying to think of happy things

one of which is Jing Yuan's fluffy hair. IT LOOKS SO FLUFFY? i want to touch it. I wish he were rea so i could pet his hair. someone on reddit described him as a confident, well-groomed cat and it's like. that is correct. he is such a satisfied big cat. i love him. i wanna pet him 😭😭

also the idea of jing yuan/dan heng/blade as this very tragic and cursed (literally not firguatively) ot3 is just. im dying here. there's not enough fic ahout them. at.least not in english. im so bad at writinf fic but at this rate if more people dont join the ship im gonna be annoyed into writing something (which will be left unfinished probably like my mdzs fics 😭😭😭😭)

but theyre SO tragic and angsty and dramatic!!! jing yuan stuck watching as his lovers ebd up in a life and death spiral that he can't save them from. stuck kn the sidelines with all his Duties as a general, stuck on the luofu raising yanqing (there was a very suspicious leak saying yanqing might be another hidden dragon boy and if so like. look. im not saying dan heng's love child bc the dragon people apparently don't reproduce but like. he will be their love child in my headcanons all right)

and then there's blade with his spotty amnesia and horrific pain and regenerating body and wanting to die abd being unable to. im in so much pain tonight and just imagining like. if that were to be me every day of my life but even death couldn't end it??? gods I'd be so insane. and then being like, the person i trusted most in the world INFLICTED this agony on me??? out of a selfish love???? dear gods what a tragedy banquet

and dan heng too!! his powers are sealed, he has the most complete ammesia out od all of them, he's like a teenager/young adult in memory but there's basically this old incarnation of his that haunts his every move, and he's being hunted down for something his past self did without knowing why. and also he was raised IN A PRISON for crimes he doesn't remember and didn't personally commit (except it WAS him) and then he gets exiled from his home abd people forever as a "mercy" by the guy who was supposed to care for his best interests (jing yuan)... even if that was ultimately a good thint since it got him on the express, it's still got to be bizarre and painful to long for a homeland you are exiled from abd also literally were barred from seeing much of, except during that day you got exiled.

and now everyone is back on the same ship!! i swear they wrote these three guys with like the tragic angsty shit that chinese BL often does, on purpose. it seriously feels like a rsuper tragic danmei novel lmao

😭😭😭😭 theyre living in my head rent free

please give them a happy ending together hoyo pleeeeease 😭😭😭

(knowing hoyo tho they're gonna drag this out for 8 years before killing at least one of them off permanently lmao)
