#so people dont have to read this

Katniss is such an unreliable narrator. She says "Then something unexpected happens. At least, I don't expect it because I don't think of District 12 as a place that cares about me" girl you deliver strawberries to the Mayor, you hunt and trade for the district, when you fell at Prim being chosen someone caught you, when you went to Prim people parted for you, when you volunteered EVERYONE stopped. Idk how to tell you but I think you're a pillar of the community.

sometimes while i think about that while a lot of adults did not treat me very well as a kid i also get a lot of 'in hindsight this person was so good to me and i didnt even realize it until now' as an adult. today i was thinking about how the first anime convention i ever went to was when i was 10 and i asked the man working the manga cafe what manga was/what a good place to start was (because the con was very overstimulating for me and i had gotten lost) and he asked how old i was before recommending yotsuba and asking if i wanted any water or something to eat. its really simple but theres a lot of bad things that couldve happened or he could've been careless in his recommendation, but instead yotsuba has remained one of my favorite manga for years, and probably a large portion of why i continue to read manga as an adult... i think adults who try to involve kids in the world safely/kindly even in little ways make so much more of a difference than they ever really know.

Being someone who read Under The Red Hood and came out with the firm belief that, for Jason, it's not about killing Joker, it's about Jason wanting proof Batman would choose him over the Joker (bc shelia chose the joker). Makes seeing any other media where it's all about just wanting the Joker dead is a teeny bit frustrating. to be honest

Jason could've killed the Joker himself, really, really easily. Jason kidnaps the Joker before the confrontation. I can't open my comic for a reference right now, but it felt like he had the Joker for quite a bit before the confrontation. He had him. He beat him up with a crowbar. He had every single opportunity to kill the Joker himself, but he didn't because that wasn't his goal. Make no mistake, he did plan for the Joker to be dead by the end of it, but do you see what im trying to say here

Edit: If I knew this post was gonna get 1000+ notes I would've tried to word it better or something, this was a rant I made on the way to the grocery store 😭

It's not about making Batman kill either. When Batman says he won't kill, Jason adjusts and goes, 'Let ME kill the Joker or kill me to stop me' instead. The test is all about Batman choosing him. The whole final confrontation is Jason's first death again. The parent, The Joker, and the explosives. It even ends with Jason unable to move as a bomb goes off right next to him again because the parent didn't choose Jason. And instead tried finding an option that'd benefit them and (consequencely) letting the Joker walk, again, lol, lmao <-in agony

FSR... FSR man...

There is something about this game, I decided not to do review as soon as I could as trying to describe what makes the game special is so... hard. This doesn’t even begin to describe how I feel about this game.

You walk everywhere, the puzzles are all done with a guidebook, the music is mostly made of arrangements of classical tunes, the writing and scenarios are odd, the characters are dicks to you.

All of this sounds odd and, in some way, outright bad but it just... works with amazing writing, fun scenarios, memorable characters and an intriguing premise that hooks you

The game should be bad. It should be dogshit considering that the gameplay is mostly walking.

but it somehow isn’t.

it requires the patience of a saint at first yes but once you are hooked... you are hooked.

The writing is SO GOOD. Every bit of dialogue is memorable, the comedy in the game is on point.

The way the game does commentary on video games as a medium, sometimes making jokes about it (shoutaro always leads to some funny ass scenes)

The whole game rebels in how unconventional it is. In every aspect it’s out of place yet so in place

The puzzles are fun to figure out and not too obtuse! except the mahjong one, fuck that one in particular

The characters... the characters... I don’t have words to describe how good the characters are

The soundtrack is way too fucking good to the point it makes walking everywhere tolerable cause it’s just so damm catchy

HEARING I GOT RHYTHM BY GEORGE GERSHWIN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE GAME WAS SO DAMM REFRESHING MAN, LIKE YEEAAAH EVEN IF THE CHAPTER IT APPEARED HAD ME SHOCKED CONSIDERING THE EVENTS OF THE PREVIOUS CHAPTER- AGH

Even if everything I’ve said is positive, it is an unconventional experience which makes it hard to recommend. It’s easy to come out hating this game due to the things it does

it’s not a game made for everyone.

I did shoot myself in the foot by not playing the silver case first but... I don’t regret playing this.

This whole thing isn’t a review, it’s a huge scramble of words.

It’s a horrible review.

but sometimes. that’s just how it is

My dear lost paradise.

8.5-9/10

my piece for @bylerbigbang w/ @willelworld

[knightingale]

The "Sansa reminds Sandor of his sister" motive that some people try to hitch to his character really just flies in the face of his actual attachments to her, doesn't it? Sansa reminds Sandor of himself. He sees the little boy who used to love knights in this girl who's been swept up by the same romanticism. He sees his abuser in her abusers, the much larger knight(s) beating on the helpless child. He sees how she is betrayed by every level of authority that should have saved her and remembers his father's neglect and Tywin and Robert's apathy for Gregor's crimes. He's protective of Sansa because he was Sansa.

And GRRM's design, that one of the strongest warriors in the series, a fearsome and cynical 6'8" guy who's "muscled like a bull" and has the face of death itself, sees himself in this soft and effeminate teen girl, and empathizes with her because he was an abuse victim too, is INFINITELY more compelling than "Oh yeah I bet she just reminds him of his sister," who he's never mentioned and who we know literally nothing about. Way to unnecessarily water down a character, you couldn't have ignored the black and white text more efficiently if you tried.

THE GLORIA SCOTT - part 2, and a follow up to my comic for the first half of this scene! thanks sm to @crashingmeteorz for allowing me to source validation for my whimsical cosmic approach to this moment <3

[isatartdump]

Would do the entire dialogue but drawing Bonnie crying is the bane of my existence! HA

Anyway my reaction to when this entire dialogue was over was just. Hihi.
