wanted to post an excerpt from Miraak's Manifesto do Acolyta from my Miraak origin fic, below cut 💚🖤

IX.APOCRYPHA

MIRAAK 1:1-8

Manifesto do Acolyta 1When my father cleaved my soul and cast me mortal down, he said to me, then: 2"You are the second son, borne at my right hand, and you will keep my people, and you will keep them well, and you will walk in grace."

3What anger to put in a child. When was I the keeping thing? For many years I was raped and skinned and beaten in the name of heresy; where was my father? I sought his eyes in the spattered ebony and death-rattled in my mother's old way. 4How am I to walk in grace as a kicked and battered dog?

5I was my father's bane and bastard. I was his wicked infant. I was not held; his hands were idle. I was not seen; his eyes were blind. 6You will read this and proclaim me traitor, you will read this and part my faith.

7But the devil saw with many eyes. The devil held with many arms. And when the devil spoke, it spoke in many tongues: 8"I know you. I have known you. I have loved you. Your grace will come as a revenant, and I will give this to you, and I will keep you, and I will keep you well."

I've been real busy with school recently and am hoping to transcribe letters and make a big post about his handwriting soon 🤞

A few years ago I watched the first 3 episodes of Arcane on a plane and it was fantastic, but so high tension that I was like "yeesh I need a break before I keep going" but then I waited so long I would've needed to rewatch those episodes and I could never talk myself into watching it all (again) so tldr I want to watch arcane but haven’t and I keep seeing spoilers so confusing they go in one ear and out the other without making a single impact on my brain

Idk who I’m making this post for, feel like i just wanna get my thoughts down. If anyone wants to comment they’re welcome to

Just played Oblivion for the first time ever, put almost 5 straight hours in….

Would it be weird to say it managed to make me feel homesick for Skyrim?

Idk man it’s not bad and maybe once I get a better grip on the mechanics it’ll be better but not only am I immensely lost with how the personality/speech skills work as well as generally confused by almost everything, but Oblivion’s map layout just feels so….lonely. Barren and lonely. It made me sad lmfao I saw Skyrim on the map and was like omg home :,(

I don’t hate it though! I just think I have to get used to it, though I can’t stand having to figure out the 4 or 5 inventory/journal tabs, I’m so so so confused by them

I do appreciate the automatic dual wield with weapons and magic, wish they kept they in Skyrim. Felt the same way about that particular mechanic when I saw original Bioshock used it after already playing Bio Infinite first

I am however having a BLAST with the battle music cut-out and the way characters absolutely either rag doll or launch when you kill them and the infamous zoom-in on faces <3

I think, everything else aside, my main frustration is how lackluster quests are compared to skyrim. It just doesn’t have the same urgency, and the way they’re organized in the tab feels like they’re hidden away sort of? Idk something about Oblivion just isn’t encouraging me to go and explore or talk to people or do quests the way Skyrim does

I am aware that these are practically two completely different games despite sharing developers and lore/storylines but when it’s a game from a specific series usually you expect that they’ll have at least a similar vibe. Oblivion struck me the same way Morrowind did, which is that it’s lacking in the same excitement I feel playing Skyrim

But again, I understand why! There were YEARS between these games and a lot has changed and they’ve gotten better at art style, mechanics, etc which therefore will produce different games. I really really really wanna enjoy Oblivion (I’d also like to enjoy Morrowind but god that felt almost tedious) so if anyone sees this and has advice for how best to enjoy Oblivion (minus mods! Wanna finish it normally first) I would greatly appreciate it

ENTJ cognitive functions. Fi in a grip state?

Story idea:

Te is berating Fi again about some emotional thing, or about delays or something (idk this is the least thought through part) and Fi has just about had it. And at the end Te says something along the lines of "...and worst of all, you're incompetent!" and Fi looks Te dead in the eyes with a flicker of flames in her iris and says "No. I'm. Not." She bursts into flames breathing fire left and right making sure Te and Ni are throughly scared and away from the controls. She creates a ring of fire around the controls and takes Se in with her as Se is like, "See ya later suckers!" Te is furious and runs towards the ring of fire, until Ni grabs her backwards, and throws a paper into the fire, it bursts into flames. Ni suggests apologizing sincerely, genuinely, and respectfully to Fi, with which Te returns with "Well to apologize you actually have to be sorry" after that Ni and Te try a plethora of different things to get back to the controls. The more time Fi runs the panel, the more stressed Te gets.

After a while Ni brings up apologizing again, since it's the only thing Te refuses to try, but Te isn't exactly receptive. Ni then puts it like this "You have 2 options either sit out here waiting and HOPING it'll go away on the off chance Fi actually stops. Or, swallow your pride and apologize" Te reluctantly acknowledges Ni's point, realizing they're running out of options, then begrudgingly kneels down in front of the ring. "Fi... I'm" She takes a sharp breath in. "I'm... sorry." all of a sudden the ring starts expanding rapidly and despite Te's best efforts it seemingly dragged her inside of the fiery circle. This is now Fi's domain, she can control whatever comes in and choose whatever goes out. Te can't move and is restrained floating just above the floor, Fi is standing right next to her, her eyes engulfed in flames and glaring straight at Te. She feels a shiver of fear down her spine as she had never seen Fi this angry. She takes another deep breath and begins to talk. "I'm... sorry, Fi... I'm sorry that I underestimated you, and put you down. I'm sorry I made you so angry." She tried her best to not bite her tongue and what she was going to say next. "Please stop this, I beg of you. I know I can't force you to do anything, and you're more powerful than we know. But this isn't healthy for ENTJ. Please... Do it for her. Fi seemed to calm down a bit as she saw a very desperate look Te's eyes. It struck something in her, like Te was actually sorry. It also probably helped she was surrounded by fire and under Fi's complete and total control. The fire in Fi's eyes lessens to just her pupil and looks at Te softly. "Thank you. I will remember this... You are free to go." She releases Te from her grip, and as she standing up, very disoriented, Fi speaks "But remember this, the fire of emotion can burn whatever it pleases. No matter how safe you seem to be, no matter how prepared you think you are, no matter how detached or far away you try to get. It'll always find you, I'LL always find you. And the second you cross me again," She chuckled a little. "well... Let's just say Ni will have to find a new commander. With that she threw Te out of the ring and he kinda tumbled to the floor.

Ni: "Did it work?"

Te (confused and disoriented): "I'm... Not sure."

Ni: "I guess we'll just have to wait and see."

Eventually Fi calms down and the fire surrounding the control panel dissipates. The fire surrounding her body and eyes disappear. Fi collapses from the enormous energy use and kind of hibernates for a few days. Afterwards Te tries to repair her relationship Fi, try to understand her a little more, sincerely, if a little awkwardly. Things are still hard, but Te promises she'll try harder to not put Fi down so much.
