the way i've been hyperfixated on this game for three years without falter and this is still my unfiltered "lesbian with very specific and beloved (derogatory) character fixation" reaction to Goro Akechi

Every day the raven came to visit. Every day. For 30 years, that raven was with her, through thick and thin, right by her side. A comfort, a companion, a… friend. Something more. Something that meant more than a simple raven. It was visiting her so much that she built a perch in her room. Just for him. Just for that raven. A vestige of their love, a reminder that he could not stop sending because his love for her was so great. And then their love was used to brake the world. And now he is trapped in his cage of pain and she is now trapped in her cage of pain and duty that will not cease and spinning plates that will not stop spinning and just keep crashing and he was there but now he’s gone again and the raven visited every damn day but now that perch is empty.

So I listened to Clear's drama CD

a single cutscene is something that can be so personal. a text box even. a sound effect

And here is the bull himself >:)

+ lore notes

I was like, ah I should make the shadow something interesting, and then I'm like GIVE HIM BULL HORNS???? OKAY SURE !!!!! I'm glad such thoughts can strike at 7 in the morning....thanks brain. But hehehe I'm glad bcs now this matches up super well with the Nando one!

New ship dynamic: who's the bull and who's the matador :)

I think, in this AU, Fernando is generally pretty fond of Seb when he first meets him. Like "ah yes my very own protégé, very nice, I shall mold him in my image." But then Seb starts veering off that course. Bullfighting is all about being dramatic, but Seb maybe has a bit too much(🤏) flair for the dramatic. This escalation starts while he's still Fernando's assistant but he keeps it generally at bay. But god when he becomes a matador himself, he's just off the rails insane.

Bullfighting, to me, is a sport about reckless endangerment of one's self in the pursuit of drama and performance(its literally described as a tragedy in three acts.) But Fernando thinks Seb endangers himself *too* much, not because he cares or anything, but he's making a mockery of the sport!! Especially when Seb starts doing that bull hand symbol(seen above), Fernando just keeps become more enraged with him, not anything to do with the fact that Seb is threatening his records and threatening his own wellbeing, nah of course not.

Seb's gesture is making a mockery of the sport, he's disrespecting the culture, the very nature of it, blah blah blah. Jenson once asks Fernando, after noticing him seething while watching Seb do his gesture, "Which bull are you really trying to defeat?" One could also describe Fernando and Seb's relationship as a "tragedy with three acts."

Anyways Fernando gets very tied up with this rivalry. Even after suffering a severe injury(I have yet to decide, but y'know mchonda electrocution core), he quickly returns to the sport, loath to let Seb get any more headway. And then Seb gets injured, poor little sweet Seb, and neither of them can handle it. Though I already covered this in my prev lore post 🤭 and I think I put it pretty viscerally there so!! I digress.

They're both matadors, but the bull itself is not the only bull Fernando wants to conquer. Conquer as in death? Hm.

sorry i still can’t stop thinking about the fact that they ended the song with the just a man snippet… like he came home as a “monster” but he really is still just a man who wanted nothing more than to see his wife and kid again…….

listened to mahler 2 incident 45 dead 859 injured

has it hit yuuta yet that if megumi is gojo’s kid then he is kind of megumi’s extremely distant uncle? Bet he’d reach for that to explain away his extremely normal protective attachment

#seaglassgardens

Not really, because he doesn’t consciously think of himself as gojo’s relative. Like, he’s aware that he is gojos super distant relative but the connection is so attenuated that he’s not really thinking of gojo as an actual part of his family, so it hasn’t hit him. But he would take literally any explanation to justify his extremely normal protective attachment to Megumi at this point

completely unrelated question to anything going on but have you ever seen cabaret? (either the 1972 movie or any of the musical productions (i.e. 1983 or 2014 with alan cumming))

ah, cabaret and i have a long and storied history. a difficult one in certain ways emotionally/thematically (never have i felt more like i was going to be sick in a theatre than at the punch that closes "if you could see her," which is exactly the point!), yet with songs that i adore and will listen to and sing around the house at the drop of a hat. i have seen the movie several times (and own it! bob fosse's direction, LIZA, joel grey, legends all), i own the soundtrack and the 1998 revival cast recording, i've seen a bootleg of an alan!emcee production though atm i cannot recall who played his sally (i've also seen pieces of michael c. hall's performance in the role), i've sung "maybe this time" onstage, and i've seen it live locally - it was following that perfectly marvelous production of cabaret that my mom and i had the car accident that ultimately ended my life as i knew it, we went specifically for my theatre class (my professor co-directed the production and i was going to write a paper on it, instead i had to drop out of college...something something start by admitting from cradle to tomb, it isn't that long a stay!). it has really weird significance in my life, my mom has trauma around it, but i still have this dark love and fascination towards it. kander and ebb's musical work for it is so genius (as of course it is for chicago too), everything fosse infused it with both on broadway and on film is so iconic that it's almost taken for granted what an influence he had (chair-eography, anyone?). that sharp contrast between the brightness of the facade and the terror and tragedy lurking everywhere beneath it, the inescapable cynicism choking the desperate desire for something more akin to hope. lady peaceful, lady happy, that's what i long to be...

if you truly want insight into my character - my fingernails are literally painted green at this very moment. if anyone should ask why, i'd say, "i think it's pretty. i think it's pretty, i reply!" sally bowles my manic beloved
