[gayvin]

Okayyyy villain route did make me cry

[starrysharks]

i have nothing against kids playing outside but there are these kids who play football right outside our fence, literally using it as a goal (which has led to the doors and windows being hit multiple times) and are loud as shit and don't stop playing until after 10pm, and they make me want to die

[coolbeans495]

Fucking FINE. I'll play Honkai Star Rail.

ARE YOU HAPPY MIHOYO??? THAT I'M DEFINITELY GOING TO LOSE MY MIND OVER ANOTHER ONE OF YOUR GAMES???

...I will be back with updates...

Well, my fourth death in Tartarus is probably a sign i should call it a night and maybe lower the difficulty, esp since the goal is to like. Nyoooom.

con't Octo2 observations, endgame spoilers, etc.

did not see a wild Ori in Hikari's Stormhail chapter, but it's still a solid chapter overall. Still not sure why Stormhail, located where it is, is Ku's "launching point" for domination of the eastern continent since it is really, really far inland and does not seem and ideal place for Ku to have an outpost in, but the politics of Ku and the rest of Solistia continue to baffle me

Agnea's Sai chapter (listen I've long since lost track of which chapter I'm on for anyone) places Cuani in Sai 20 years prior to the story, which is...uh the same time period that Ku took over Sai? I am assuming Cuani stopped by after the war? damn Sai is a mess of confusion when it comes to the timeline of events and worldbuilding for Ku and Timberain. We know Oboro/Kazan was born in U (which Sai was a part of), so if he's in his 30s then he was a teen when U was razed, and Ori was younger than him (so she's probably in her mid 20s?), and I have no idea what this means about Dolcinaea (iirc she states that she was abandoned by her parents, so she's probably basically a war orphan as well), but what I don't get is why Sai, despite clearly being part of Ku, has people who were trying to work w/ Timberain (leading to the five-year long war that Castti and co. helped out in), like is there some sort of labor agreement in place? ugh, Sai is a weird town...

Also finished Hikari's final chapter (rip, Ritsu managed to kick my ass several times, so far the only two deaths I had were wandering into a side dungeon way under-leveled, and the Grieving Golem bc I didn't optimize my subjobs beforehand; I actually had to level-grind a bit for Ritsu bc I tried dragging two characters who were like ten levels under the rec'd level into the battle, whoops).

ANYHOW I noticed Mugen chants the same thing child-Hikari chanted after being overtaken by the Shadow ("quench the flames, call out to the night" or something along those lines), which suggests that the shadow-stuff going on with the Ku bloodline seems to act sort of similar to like, what Lyblac was to Galdera? in that the Shadow of Ku isn't like, specifically Vide or even makes the descendants of Vide worthy candidates as vessels, but the Shadow does take hold of them in an attempt to bring about the right conditions for Vide's revival, which makes me wonder if D'arqest was actually playing the role to Vide that Lyblac played to Galdera, but bc Vide is a different entity than Galdera, Vide needs a legit vessel which is how the entire "Claude was bio-engineered to be Vide's perfect vessel" came about, even though as we know anyone can be Vide's vessel (re: Oboro). Because Hikari and the Ku bloodline are direct descendants of D'arqest and not of Claude, this would also explain the differences between Hikari's struggles with the Shadow, and Throne just chilling with her special night powers (since she would be a descendant of Vide's vessel and heir to the powers of the vessel rather than to the shadow blood of D'arqest...maybe?). To be fair I am kinda tired, and my brain's a bit fizzled from irl stuff stressing me out, so I'm probably grasping at straws here, but, hm, lots to think about here.

ALSO, also Mugen does say that the "light of [Kura's] bloodline" lives on in Hikari (and that this clan also fought the shadow historically), so while this isn't a direct 1:1 connection to the Lumine family being the "bloodline of light" it is pretty damned close, so yeah, I'm thinking Kura and Rita were distantly related, and I'm still thinking they might have some connection possibly to Alpates. So hmm...yeah more stuff to think about....

ugghghghghghghghghgghhh i'm like so deep into my first three houses playthrough, but i keep getting this urge to restart since now i have an actual grasp on how the game works, it's like the first fe game to be designed this way and it just throws a bunch of stuff at you at the start and it took me a while to get used to it and now i just wanna start over so i can do it again but better

[awfcrusso]

I’m doing it

I’ll reblog this if I actually manage to wake up for the match

[sonknuxadow]

not gonna lie it is kinda bugging me not knowing When the sonic frontiers update is going to happen. because i wanna play it as soon as possible. but i dont know when that is

[baeshijima]

mystic messenger type fic era /j

omg chatfic with a poll that only pops up at certain times and has a set hour or two until the options close so ur constantly paranoid abt when the polls will drop 😩

[notsoattractivearenti]

11.30pm and instead of sleeping, i write.

[tkachunk]

WAIT WE WERE WORSE THAN THIS THE LAST TWO YEARS??

[bunstoybox]

A cover for the mystic messenger theme song recently popped up on my spotify, and now I'm thinking of the game again! And specifically 707.. Going so insane <3333

Hoping this will be able to shove me out of my weird art block at the moment, but we shall see.
