#thank fuck they're spelled differently in japanese though

[glitchdecay]

sometimes i think about how in two completely different genres of rpgs, two wildly different pairs of siblings end up with completely plausible themed names even though the gladiolus is technically an iris but colloqually called "sword lily"

please ignore the noct on the right lol

(names for both sibling pairs are in image descriptions!!)

despite the different etymologies i think one is as valid as the other and the names are beautiful regardless

Joined the rescue team's rescue dog "Ochin"! 

Where on earth are the six members of the team...?

Not sure about the first bit, but just asking where the rescue team could have gone. Also, is it just me or does the far left person look like Alph...?

First mission with great responsibility... 

Pikmin and Otchin, 

together with their reliable companions 

A search on an unexplored planet has begun. 

Where are the victims? 

If we don't act quickly, the planet's protists [creatures?] will 

You may be attacked. 

As expected, you successfully completed your mission. 

Can the victims be rescued...?

Self explanatory imo, not sure what protists means exactly but I think it means like, creature or animal or something.

Rookie rescue, 

dispatch "Captain Olimar" who was in distress on a certain planet. 

A month later, his distress call reached the rescue team. 

The group went to help.

Guess who's dumb ass we're saving again. Yep. He's also been there for a MONTH which is... concerning, given the plot of the first game.

Captain Olimar 

Birth star Hokotate star 

For the sake of my family, I give up my days off to carry luggage. 

For some reason, I was prone to getting into trouble, and was shipwrecked on a certain planet.

He's no longer a delivery guy, though still works for the company seemingly, for the sake of his family. Very sweet given the depressing notes we got in 3DX... so how the FUCK did he end up here again???

...but

The rescue team that went to rescue Olimar

I've lost track of him.

This is the so-called double distress.

Rescue target: +7 people

I went looking for Olimar.

Rescue team

Rescue team went to save Olimar. They also crashed. We gotta help them too. I swear that this planet is just cursed... perhaps by a certain wraith? :) also, insert obligatory "moon's haunted" joke here, given how wraiths are probably ghosts.

How many you want?

Is this selvage?

Fuck selvage. That's han d-dyed indigo from a left-handed weave.

No way.

Came off the boat from Osaka

bound for the jeans shop on west 14th street until it met me.

How much?

Three grand.

Yo, Ben, we don't have three grand. Focus on the pleathers.

Yo, Pal, that ain't no pleather.

What you think?

It's real.

Name tag's spelled wrong straight up bootleg.

Bad news, these are straight bootleg.

That ain't no bootleg.

Last time I checked, Buchanan spelled mark with ak.

I don't give a shit if he spells it with a kkk. That's some real leather.

Kkk? Really?

I'll tell you what, give me $500 for the lot and I'll throw in a blender.

$400.

Go fuck yourself.

$500 it is. Yo, Ben, how much cash you got on you?

/////////////// scene 2//

Right here.

Yup. All right.

Cash upfront for mr. Levy.

This happens to be a beautiful denim you have.

Very rare. - I told you my boy was a visionary.

I'll make you a nice sample. You'll be very happy.

Hey, guy, take a picture of us real quick.

Zev, get in this. Come on.

///// Here we are.

That looks dope.

Yeah.

Are you troubled

Or are you jumping for joy on the inside?

No, it just looked a little different in my head.

I think they look good. Try 'em on.

You can go back there.

Yeah? Okay.

Ben, come on. Let me see.

Good looking pant.

Not the right cut for you, though.

I think they look good.

They're exactly what you wanted.

Jesus. - Only 'cause they're too tight.

I like a little loose. You know that, ben. ////////////// scene 3 Good craftsmanship. Well made.

Thanks. - Crisp is all about the quality.

Mmm. But I don't like the cut.

Not for me. Not for japanese consumer.

You don't think they're gonna love the old-school flavor?

No. Thank you.

You have something else?

No, just the jeans.

Okay, my friends. You come see me next time.

I come every six months.

I appreciate your time. Thank you.

Cool shirt.

Oh, it's american apparel.

No, his shirt.

Oh. Thanks.

Search in the Algae Sea - Part 1

Hahaha. Haha. Hivemind.

I'm thinking about how there are so many stories in different mythology that talk about souls being split. Like how in Japanese mythology, it is said that twins are born from the same soul that were split upon birth, and that's why they will always be connected.

Thank you for the map Cater, but I found all those places on my own already fjshdbfs They're letting me skip going there, that's very nice. I'm sad about the dialogue I probably missed going there though...

After having read the different notes and gone through the mirrors in each seal location, I was very excited for this. I'm glad I can finally do it... I found it so interesting that when you look at the map while in those little mirror dimensions, I think you're at the Ordo everytime (either that or where you decipher René's notes.) I keep thinking how I have Through The Looking Glass sitting on my shelf and I never got around to reading it, I should change that soon.

I KNEW IT!!! HE'S HERE!!!

Is that related to the four samsaras mentioned in the document you find on the ground in front of the Tower of Gestalt?

It's here.

Water holds memories and emotions so that's why we find the artifacts and weapons here when you get it to flow. I like that.

HUH??

It's so very pretty from up here.

Yeah whatever, we've gotten so many criminal charges within the last 3 years what's another one on our plate huh. Anyway. Seeing Alain and Neuvilette mentioned in the same sentence makes me wanna cry again.

You're fucking with me again aren't you (saying this while thinking right, that makes sense.)

Big ol' clock.

I forgot he has a human face lol. The sass on this guy.

Fucking doubt it my guy.

Bro. What. I wonder if this line is different if you haven't played the archon quest yet (can you play it before then?) Anyway, this whole questline has me learning and googling so many words, which is rare for me. Old French man Jakob is teaching me English, I feel humiliated.

I know they basically said it before but having it just spelled out is insane.

The god complex physically hurts in René I swear.

This is what they mean if they say one extreme cannot exist without the other. Selflessness without selfishness can't exist and so they are easily exchanged in meaning.

He's fucking french, how many lotus flower crisps do you think he's had? Also love how they're both going >:c together.

Found you a dragon to slay Ann, come quickly. Time for revenge.

Similarities between Aether and Alain: Blond. Would die for his sister. A good guy. Not part of a cult. More to be added.

I kicked your ass before, what do you think is going to happen this time?

Be nice to him you bully.

YEAH THATS RIGHT! TELL YOUR ABUSIVE PARENTS OFF!! jhbdjwheqd

I hate that he looks very pretty like this. Anyway, so the power of the Abyss/the power of quantum and the power of the imaginary elements?

Ehehehe her little flappy wings so cuuuute

MY BABY!!!! YEAH YOURE TOTALLY A KID DONT WORRY ABOUT THOSE 500 YEARS!!!

Genshin rant about Narzissenkreuz Ordo related quests. Spoilers!!

Just finished Unfinished Comedy

So my dumbass went out to explore and found places connected to Ordo lore but I got confused why I couldn't access the fourth and last location. Then I went back and saw that. This quest that I've been putting off cause I thought it's unrelated is. related JHBDEWQFQ

So I went all the way back and played this and can now finally continue. it was so cute. I liked the storytimes. I liked cater too. It's so interesting to see he has the same marks on his arms as arlecchino. On the edge of my seat to find out the details of how that came to be...
