nothing hurts more than seeing ur fave character depicted in an official au story or elseworld where details ab them r different but it explores the character in a new way -- its good in a vacuum, but u know it isn't the Definitive Version of that character. Just a new exploration (cool!). but because the adaptation brought in so many new fans and/or was a huge success it ends up being treated like its the Definitive Version and all discussions of prev versions are overshadowed bc of it... even worse when studios / execs see the success and try to pivot to this New Version only and never try to explore new routes for the character ever again (can you tell this is about comics yet)

I can't believe I was lucky enough to see Fontaines D.C. live in such an intimate setting 😭😭😭😭

Opinions on Secret Level Mega Man?

If I have to be completely honest, I cannot say I have any real excitement for this iteration. Most of my past experiences with any film-based, streaming-service-based adaptation for any video games have not been good ones. And while creative freedom to make changes to a new adaptation is one thing, what I've come across so far feel like they miss the "core" of the source material, so it's as though I am not watching something from said series but something completely different with the same name.

Could I be too hard on a simple teaser? Maybe. But the last time I had huge hopes for something I liked, the people behind it seemed to think their changes were fixing problems that didn't exist.

Also I think that kid that may be the Mega Man in question looks like Lionsgate Pinocchio. It's giving too much "corporate-realistic" cartoon style that I'm not fond of.

Guess my newest hyperfixation is Val, sorry everyone who followed me for other stuff, I'm Val Serano Skyrim posting now.

Get out while you still can (つ✧ω✧)つ (Gushing below the Readmore, image descriptions in Alt Text)

"Are you serious? Right in front of my Hoarker loaf?"

I just wanna say, something I love about Val is he's not subtle about always looking at the Dragonborn. No matter where they're standing his attention is on them. They saved him from certain death, so it makes sense that he's intrigued by them.

Look at him. He's smitten. I hadn't even started the romance quest at this point and he keeps looking at the LDB like they're the only other person in the world. That's [chef's kiss] romance. (ﾉ´ з `)ノ♡

He's so unsubtle its funny. And ofc the LDB is sitting there wondering about him during the romance quest like "I don't know if he likes me uwu" which in and of itself is funny. I love watching romances where one or both parties are stupid about each other but haven't realized it yet.

Look at that sunset. Skyrim. It's got great sunsets.

Another thing I love is how much he's commentating about things that are happening or speaking to NPCs without changing or editing their dialogue much. It seems the author is VERY good at splicing lines to feel natural so Val fits right into the world of Skyrim without feeling like he's completely taking over. I think my one qualm is he doesn't have much in the way of interaction with other custom followers, but it does seem that older followers aren't being worked on that much or their authors have stopped updating, so it makes sense. I did find it funny that Lucien Flavius is mentioned (by a Sheogorath Hat that makes fun of Val for various things) and he wasn't even in my party at that point, I'd already dropped him at Dumzbathar to end that part of his quest.

I hope he does get some interaction in the future, as it seems like there's a lot of potential for him to mesh well with other custom followers.

You've got something on your face. Probably dried bandit blood. Let me get that for you.

There's also a lot to be said here for variety of choices. This mod allows you to actively choose a rocky relationship with this guy, and the mod is aware of that fact. I love that! What a new and interesting way to write a romance mod. It gives it more drama. Now I say this as I've chosen the "lovey dovey" path where the relationship is not rocky, but I am SO EXCITED to make a character where the relationship doesn't go as smoothly.

I have much more to say about this mod (and MANY more screenshots to share!) But I have to go to bed now so I'll do more Val posting later probably.

If you want to know what mods I used here's a spreadsheet link. Unfortunately last I checked the mod repository I used to use is down, so sheets it is.

Have some more of Val's unsubtle staring for the road. The Dragonborn lives rent free in his head just as much as he lives rent free in mine, it seems.

my cd won't be here until after work on friday its so joever

[pennyserenade]

i love having a father’s taste in music, so be it. those bands might have ridiculous names but they weren’t fucking around when it came to music

[theinfinitedivides]

so The Way U Are (Unplugged) gets a live stage (MNet) and Rebel gets two more stages (SBS One Take at Inkigayo and Mnet) but i see nothing for Rodeo/nothing else for Jungle. aight. ok. guess i'm meant to languish or something

[skitskatdacat63]

I feel like at least several times a month, I have a random insane revitalization of my love for The Smiths. Not that I ever stop loving them, but I'll listen to some song and then suddenly fall into this pit of just deep, intense love for their music again where I can't stop listening to their music on repeat and watching live performances and looking at pics like AAAAAHHHHHH WHY IS THEIR MUSIC SO GOOOD?????? WHY IS IT PERFECT?????? WHY WERE THEY SO GENDER???????

(songs I am feeling intense brainrot over rn in case you're curious: "I Want The One I Can't Have(live)", "Stretch Out and Wait(live)", "You Just Haven't Earned It Yet Baby", "Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others(demo)", "What She Said", "The Boy With The Thorn in His Side(live)"(p.s. I Want The One I Can't Have is Martian-coded to me, pls listen)(also it reminds me of that movie I watched yesterday)

[sevicia]

I wanted to make a cleaner summary of last week's classes and also review the classes I have this week since the material is already uploaded beforehand but I was feeling so horrible throughout the day that when I sat down I was just gonna look at the ones for tomorrow but I think I'm just gonna go to bed because I just gave my little numbers game a few tries and not even the joy of tribial elementary school-level math games is bringing my brain cells and/or full sentience back

Going back to my roots and drawing on MS Paint

[purecommemasolitude]

Spicy (not really) take: Estelle and Florent’s little “ooOoOoOOOohs” in the live versions of C’est bientôt la fin improve the song by 937484%

[lonelystarbuckslover13]

Hot take but the City of Lover live version of Cornelia Street is better than the studio version
