^^^^ wanted to reblog but also include @braceletofteeth ‘s tags bcos yes exactly I never thought ab Moon-jo’s homosexual undertones this way but we need more non-creepy gay characters mixed in with a few Moon-jo’s here and there (just like we had Jong-woo who wasn’t a creep but then we had Nam-bok and Byeong-min which…. Yeah…) and honestly I really can’t think of any non creepy/horrible canon gay or implied gay characters in kdrama so :/ considering the demonisation of lgbt in korea (though I heard that it’s getting better nowadays) I’m not entirely surprised however

There is something to be said about how when Korea want to make a psychopath (or a character look like one) they make them flirt with men since homossexuals are so scary. Not that I am complaining since I eat it up.

#strangers from hell #this isnt to say they shouldn’t ever have a creepy gay character like no because then that goes into the stereotype that gay people cant #also be weirdos #this is a stereotype that mainly happens with lesbian couples I think but #people assume gay/lesbian couples can’t be toxic or abusive or gay people #cannot be weirdos which is not true at all your sexuality doesn’t define your personality and viewpoints #on the world so yes we Should have Moon-jo’s and gay Nam-boks or even lesbian Nam-boks but #when either one (all gay ppl being the nicest best ppl ever or being creeps) are the only thing being portrayed #thats when we run into problems #and both of these ideas are problematic #one demonises lgbtq ppl and makes us all seem dangerous #the other could lead to some younger gays thinking they cant possibly be abused in a relationship #BECAUSE theyre gay #and also means authorities may not take lgbtq abusive relationships as seriously or cases of stalking etc etc #bcos ‘gay ppl cant do that’#seo moonjo

Y'know I love everything Supergiant is doing with the mechanics and the encounters but I gotta say. Really kills the mood when you take a blessing from Circe that changes your voice and then meet Icarus. The times you see him at all are so few and far between and twice now have I had my giddiness at one of their sweet interactions stomped out bc Mel sounds absolutely insane in the most distracting way possible.

#im a bit torn cuz her voice changing is silly and i appreciate that detail #but for the ENTIRE run? her dialogue for EVERY interaction from that point on?#bit much imo #i feel like continuity is really important so it might be an all or nothing thing #if it isnt id say just keep it for her little comments during fights and stuff #cuz yall are gonna expand the surface and im gonna hit olympus and her voice being so high would fucking suck lol #if we were way late into the game like post credits i wouldnt care so much #but the heart of the story feels a bit shoved to the side when my girl is x octaves higher and no one is even mentioning it lol #hades 2 #hades 2 spoilers #supergiant games #sea plays hades #wonder if i should check out the game discord and put this feedback there?#never played anything in ea but if ive got a problem thats what its for yeah?

with my phantom hourglass replay, there are two things i noticed;

a possible theme you could glean from the game is action vs inaction, and i think it's especially prevalent before you even leave mercay the first time, with oshus frequently urging link to not go after the ghost ship, then to just wait until the broken bridge is fixed, and seems reluctant at every turn while link and ciela are more than eager to go and do something about this problem, and the people of mercay in general talking about things and their problems but never seeming to act on their fears or desires, as well as the mention that due to the ghost ship, very very few people are still sailing around, while linebeck is one of the only people we see in the game actively going after the ghost ship and still sailing around. i might make a longer post just talking more about the action vs inaction in phantom hourglass but i just noticed it a bit and thought it was a bit of an interesting sort of theme you could find in the game.

linebeck moves so fucking much. i think he moves more than any npc in the rest of the game. not just in his intro cutscene where he is very animated, just in how much he moves when just standing in his little idle post, it's damn near distracting when the camera is focused on him, he moves a lot. i don't think i've really acknowledged how much he moves, and it really gives the impression that he's antsy or eager to get going, both of which fit him pretty well with how he acts.

#phantom hourglass #linebeck #loz #legend of zelda #salty talks #imo the action vs inaction thing feels esp interesting to me when looking at oshus specifically. he and his world are in grave danger #and he knows it and he actively does nothing and even seems reluctant to let ciela and link go ahead and do something.#of course he comes around on it but it's very interesting. has he given up at that point? thats what it suggests to me #that hes like. joined the people of mercay in just lying down and waiting for other people to fix their problems or just. not do anything #otherwise on mercay you have that old guy in the bar who spends the whole game not leaving bc he doesnt want to face his wife #and she never goes to the bar to actually look for him and just talks about it if anything #the guy with the blue tunic talks a lot about linebeck and his ship and almost gives the impression that he really wants to talk to him #but yknow. doesnt. theres the women that tells you about docks being shut down and how linebeck is the only person who's showed up #the woman you see at the broken bridge who's just like oh well! time to wait til someone fixes it.#even the guy fixing the bridge iirc is like well fuck i gotta do it or else oshus is going to bitch at me abt it #everyone seems reluctant to act which makes for an interesting way in how our main crew stands out #it is less so oh theyve been chosen specifically for this its moreso they're the ones who are fucking doing something about this #for their own various reasons some of which are more selfish but theyre still doing something #will likely have more stuff to say when im done but ofc we have other characters in the game who have to do with this #anyways. linebeck is so animated all of the fucking time it's great i dont think theres any other character that moves as much as him #when he's just standing around to talking to link it's great. he's so ready to get going.#it works with him being an anxious mess and also with like. oh he's probably understimulated. you know he's got a nasty case of wanderlust #i can put it with the idea that he's understimulated and afraid to stim in public so he's just constantly moving #he probably drums his fingers on tables bounces his leg when sitting paces around switches the way he sits or lays down often #tbh this kinda fits in with him being one of the main characters who takes action moreso than a lot of other characters #his arc culminates in him taking action he's going after the ghost ship he's moving around the world the only issue is that one of the #actions he takes is running away from his problems literally n metaphorically (tho idk if facing the jolene problem is a good idea for him)

Now this might be because I have issues but is it just me or does Slay The Princess feel like an allegory for a relationship?

#like i dont even mean the actual textual stuff like the two gods loving each other i mean like #while the narrator himself does say that he is not the protagonist at all the voices do in fact count him as one of them and #both the narrator and the voices are described as shattered glass pieces on the floor #and im saying that just to contextualise what im about to say because i feel like the narrator is an echo of someone who was in #a relationship with another person and is trying to 'slay' the memory of this person and defeat death not only literally but #on a metaphorical level (as in the death of a relationship). if you do slay her you destroy her memory and in that way you do not know her #at all nor do you care to #and the routes would be the perspectives held by different parts of you. shes literally a being that changes based on who perceives her #but metaphorically thats just how people work isnt it? relationships are complicated and there is a part of you who sees someone as a razor #and there is a part of you who sees them as a damsel and another who sees them as a god etc etc #its like youre a person who is trying to make sense of the situation and; which is why the construct of the princess is made up of #several vessels called perspectives. you understand the whole of what you think only when you take apart all your perspectives;#and theres a you who isnt you anymore who doesnt want to do this. hes telling you to just destroy it. it was wholly wretched and wholly bad #and it changed which is a crime in itself. theres an echo of you. and theres you; built by this echo because thats how the self works #we are each our own god and we build ourselves. the different voices are like different parts of you #much like the vessels are the equivalent of the voices. theyre the finite confined perspectives; aspects of a whole person #and slaying her in this context would obviously mean literally just destroying the memory and deciding that change and all it brings #is an awful thing. though im not yet sure what the difference between leaving with the whole and between separating yourself #and leaving with just an aspect would be.#thats probably like the only thing thats kinda ruining this interpretation lol #oh and obviously a lot of the routes have like very strong relationship symbolism. specifically a lot of them feel like #scenes from a relationship that is falling apart. for example in the adversary and then the fury when you run away the dialogue #basically mimics a partner running away from a conflict and the other one destroying themselves because of it #witch and the thorn are both heavily Esop-coded and the text itself says that its about two people hurting each other even though they love #each other but both are afraid of the other one and of being vulnerable. thorn is about finding forgiveness in one another #and deciding to be better and love each other despite the hurt youve caused each other due to your problems #etc etc #like am i insane am i mental am i projecting?

Me: yeah I think I need help with my emotional regulation skills. Like I get SO angry and my tolerance for frustration is SOO low

My therapist: well everyone gets annoyed and it's okay to acknowledge that people are BEING annoying. Just don't interact with them if you can, otherwise it's okay to be angry :)

Me: K.

Like man I am literally asking you to help me gain these skills I was not taught to have bc I was raised to suppress my anger and not show it bc that was "disrespectful". Like hello??? Yeah everyone gets annoyed but like not to the point where they snap at someone at least once a day!! Hello?!??!?

#marquilla #im still just.. baffled by this #she was like well set boundaries like if your mom keeps asking you to run back to the store for something she forgot and #it's the third time that week then tell her no! it's okay!#like i literally work in a store i can just pick it up when i clock out IF she forgot stuff and kept making it my problem #like that's not what im talking ab when i tslk ab her forgetting things being annoying #im talking like she wont remember a conversation we had the day before. she wont remember me setting a hard boundary #and will cross it without thinking bc she canr remember the boundary was set!! THATS WHAT I MEANT #and also the skeletons at work but thats more so autism overstimulation shit than pure anger and annoyance #i really should get a new therapist but im just so tired of getting new drs and i feel like no one listens anyway bc its hard to articulate

Cue the pink!

#my gram taught me that there are 3 kinds of people in your life: leaves branches and roots #leaves fly away every season despite the energy the tree gives to them #branch people are hardy and they stick around for a while but one bad storm or one bad cut they fall off #root people nourish and help keep the tree alive and even if the tree gets cut in half they stay until the bitter end #there's nothing wrong with any of these categories we're all someones leaf someone's branch or someone's root #the problem though lies in the fact we don't let nature run its course #when the leaves want to leave let them go #when the branches can't wither the storm let them go #when the roots raise you up let them raise you up and shield them in return #i had a friend i haven't spoken to in years ask me why i got rid of most of my socials and isolated from people irl and online #there's a lot of reasons but it dawned on me that it was because i got so damn tired of chasing leaf people #and fortifying branch people only for them to break off when i (the tree) needed help #and i had to take a long hard look and prune everything #now its a matter of narrowing down my roots and being present with them #i think too thats why im not giving as much of a fuck either in fandom spaces or other spots irl or online cause im tired of the chase #ive been tired of leaves and branches taking me for granted #mostly vent post but i guess im sharing this cause i hope my grams words help ya out in some way today #also one of my familys oldest horses died today and her and gram were close #poor gal just turned 31 i was a baby when she was a baby #got me thinking about my late gram and the recent convo i had with my peep #anyway cue the pink!#magenta is my vent word

ways my emotional support cat has emotionally supported me thus far:

-got the zoomies while I was crying and distracted me by being fucking goofy

-found a bottle of Lexapro that had rolled under my bed (after he knocked it off my nightstand, but he did find it)

-crawled up on my shoulders like a parrot, preventing me from getting any work done (benefit unclear), pic related

-whined like a little baby when I wouldn't let him bite my face (???)

-REFUSES to let me piss without supervision (the bathroom door doesn't close all the way sometimes and he just bonks into it until it opens)

-forces me to get out of bed and bothers me relentlessly when I don't (this one actually is really helpful)

-does this:

#his official esa status is pending with the university but since we live in family housing and not the dorms now theyve been chill #like. they let toddlers live here they can handle a more or less well behaved cat #hes well behaved in the sense hes not destructive at least. he is kind of a little menace though #see above wrt biting me on the nose #we looked up why he does that- apparently some cats give love bites bc theyre trying to groom you like another cat #and the solution is to hiss and meow like a sad injured kitten so he thinks he bit too hard and stops doing it #but the problem with mr man over here #is that when you do that #he will lick you as an apology (insert picture ''a tiny apology'') and then bite you again but softer #rinse and repeat until he gets huffy that you dont want to be bitten #and goes and sits across the room to gaze at you scornfulky #so thats why we have to kick him out of our room at night #hes like the 5th cat ive had in my life and the only one that does this #granted of the other 4. 2 were feral rescue kittens who were middle age by the time i was even born #and the other 2 we adopted when i was like 9 so they were mostly trained by my mom #who runs a TIGHT fuckin ship #anyway hes the loviest little baby boy ever #cult classic alias booboo

Not to sound emotionally damagee, but my first ex did literally cheat on me 4 times to get back at me for trying to have a conversation with him in order to set up boundaries with our polyamory. N later left me for a guy he was seeing on the side (but the guy didn't want him lol)
