Something about how fast Joel covers Ellie, how many times he must've thought about the way Sarah died. That if he had turned faster he might've saved her, how he went over that scenario a million times in his head, and now he finally does it, he takes the brunt of the bomb....finally he was fast enough.

dazai making up a whole language with fyodor that no one else can understand is amazing but imagine him using codes that, very objectively speaking, you could crack, it's just that no normal person would ever make the insane leaps in logic that it requires. except for someone familiar with dazai's weird thinking patterns, that is.

i just love the idea of dazai's unhinged antics being dialed up to an eleven when he was in the port mafia, and oda being the only one who simply wouldn't bat an eye at it but chuuya was the only one who would actually get it.

like imagine ango at the end of the jailbreak, his boss saying he should allow himself to sigh and lean back and maybe indulge himself, pat him on the shoulder, tell him what he pulled off reading heart rates wasn't easy and he should be proud for being able to keep up with such a plan

but ango i-drank-with-teenage-dazai-and-also-had-the-records-for-every-soukoku-mission sakaguchi can only remember the time dazai was like using greek sign language through his breathing patterns to communicate from a submarine from beneath the pacific ocean or something, and chuuya could not fathom how no one else could understand him.

and that was the day mori signed off on skk being exclusive partners because every subordinate in the room was crying tears of blood by the time chuuya finished explaining which blood pressure level was warning them about a bomb, which blinking sequence was him conveying the vault password and which series of inhales was just him calling mori a bitch.

(ango also pointedly did not want to think about how smug dazai had looked after the mission when mori confirmed skk would only be each others' partners for efficiency and to maintain everyone else's sanity

or about how when he called chuuya to tell him about dazai's prison break scheme he could only get like 3 out of 276 steps into the plan before chuuya rolled his eyes, said "got it" then hung up and pulled the whole thing off without a hitch.)

auuuuhhhhhh curly's reluctance/inability to actually Do Anything about jimmy and his assaulting anya beyond "talking it out" and "we can fix this together" is sooo. so realistic. its so realistic. its so human. its exactly how abusive people remain at large. "he's been my friend for years, i know him, he would never do something like that, we can talk through it, i'm sure it was just a lapse in judgement and a one-time thing." and yet look at where it landed you. look at where that passiveness landed your entire crew. curly continued to be willingly passive in favor of not rocking the boat, and when it was too late, he was forced to be passive as his crew got picked off one by one.

Thank God splatoon 3 didn't end up introducing a playable cuttlefish dlc like I feared last year (I honestly don't think we need more new playable species, would've been too sudden, my expectations were on the floor after rotm) but the cuttlefish visuals are still so suspicious to me. This hat has to be on purpose. That's absolutely not a fucking squid or octopus

And this is undeniably a cuttlefish (and the double fin shape resembles the hat)

Like how the lack of mammals in the splatoon world and ark Polaris was something suspicious in the previous games, and characters like marigold and Glen fiddler and lil judd are suspicious now.... It's way more subtle but I think this could be the splatoon team planting some seeds in case they decide to introduce cuttlefish as a separate species in the splatoon world. ill be keeping it in the back of my mind

Alternate timeline where Stanley doesn’t accidentally ruin Ford’s project but he still doesn’t get into Geek Life University bc some kid showed up with a baking soda volcano

Hey, Malevolent fic writers, just a reminder, you can make any crossover happen by having Kayne send John and Arthur to whatever universe you like.

He could task them with grabbing some item for him or killing someone or simply just be like: "I want to see what happens if I put you in a room with Light Yagami." He can just do that. Any time period too. No convoluted excuse needed, Kayne wants to put those guys in situations just as much as we do and he's perfectly capable of doing so.

Ok. I am all for giving Veilgaurd the space to be it's own game and appreciate it for what it is, but every time I see a person who openly talks about only getting in to dragon age this year or some other nonsense go off about how long term fans hate the game cause they cant handle change I see red.

I mean, to be a Dragon Age fan, you have to be able to accept change. Change is at the core of the experience. Whether that's a good thing or bad thing is a different question. But if you're a long-term fan of the series, you've succeeded in the task of accepting change.

The criticisms of Veilgaurd are, in my opinion, a little unique to the franchise. For all Inquisition tweaked certain lore and it irritated a lot of people- it did so with self-awareness and intention. I am thinking about how it did the Dalish dirty in many respects. For all I do not agree with that writing direction, the game itself atleast acknowledges it is 1. New information. 2. Dependent on the clan. 3. Gives you the room to roleplay your character according to previously established lore. This is just one example, of course.

Veilgaurd is unique in the fact it ignores much of the series pre-established lore and in no way owns up to it.

I have seen a lot of hateful comments about how Origins hasn't been the framework of the series since 2009. And yeah, sure to a degree that is true. The gameplay certainly got tossed out. But in many ways, Dragon Age 2 is a direct continuation of that world and setting. DA2 and Origins and the lore they established are solid and share a vision. Play as a Mahariel and engage with Merril's clan. It's the same world. The same npc's. Inquisition does not deviate that far from that vision when you look past the companions all playing devil's advocate.

I really don't think everyone disappointed with this game or finding it lacking are "blinded by nostalgia." Most Dragon Age fans will be the first ones to tell you the franchise is a mess. But acting like the games that established it as beloved to it's fans are no longer relevant is so nasty to me. You as a newer fan would not be able to play Veilgaurd if the older fans had not made the previous titles financial successes. If they had not kept the love for the series alive, this new game would never have made it out of development.

The game is good. It's enjoyable to play. It's not without its charms. It should be given room to shine for what it is. It's a miracle we have it given the development journey it went on.

But it's also a massive smack in the face to many people who loved all three previous titles. And that's a bad thing. And I hope future titles remember the lore and tone of the series better.

These two things can both be true.

question for the council: is it vore or vore adjacent if, hypothetically, shen yuan was transmigrated into binghe’s body, but vacated the premises to revive binghe and return his life to him, thus awakening in binghe a need to get shen yuan back inside of him, kind of in a “i never want to separate from you” way? i’m asking for a friend

Going back to the "Mazey becoming the Principle thus making her the next in line for Kipperlily to get rid off" thing, while killing her would be a quick option, I think there are other ways to get rid of her that are much more innocuous.

Mazey is a Bard and a senior. Would it really be that weird if, conveniently, she got scouted by a professional dance company or a pop star looking for backup dancers? An opportunity so good that she couldn't pass it up and would have to leave school thus making her ineligible to be president/principle?

Kipperlily already has an in with Lola Embers...

So this is kinda a crack theory but I was once again watching the arcane trailer and I began thinking about this little clip

Which is obviously a direct parallel to this scene from season 1

It's literally the same exact shot just with different lighting and a globe instead of a weird magic ball. They even seem to be using the same character model with the same hand tattoos and everything.

These unusual shapes like the one seen in the first image are usually associated with the hex core and Viktor

So that got me thinking. Season 2 is likely gonna have some kind of time travel plot involving Ekko.

What if the figure in both these scenes is actually Viktor who ends up being transported back in time to save Jayce and set everything in motion.

I mean the wizard in season 1 does carry a staff similar to Viktor's

I know I might be totally wrong here nonetheless it's interesting.

OKAY LISTEN imagine a scene where Queen Charlotte rings the bell to send for Reynolds and Brimsley. Nothing too serious they just need something or other. And in come Reynolds and Brimsley rushing in flustered, absolutely red cheeks, hair a mess, and WEARING EACH OTHERS JACKETS. Brimsley in the long blue coat that has Reynolds doing "farmer George eyes" at him and Reynolds in that small red coat looking absolutely comical. The way Charlotte would Smirk and tell them to go fetch them some wine food or whatever and too clean themselves up. Because let's be honest Charlotte and George are definitely aware of what their most trusted advisors get up to.

This is probably very far-fetched and a result of me overthinking it but i have a theory that Leon is secretly a yandere. So here's my little investigation :3

Piece of evidence number 1: I vaguely remember you saying something like "who said Ren is the only yandere in the game?" Or something along those lines, in an older post.

Piece of evidence number 2: In a post from june with some Leon crumbs you said: "When he was younger, Leon almost got into a fight because the weird kid in the grade below him tried to give you a ring on the playground. But Leon shut the whole ordeal down really quick because you promised to marry him first. Did you forget?" And that's just giving me yandere vibes

(Moving onto crackpot theories cause this is just me over analyzing jokes you made)

Piece of evidence number 3: You mentioned Leon, Theo and Jae would wear matching among us costumes for halloween, and Leon would be the imposter. Which made me think he might actually be an imposter lol

Piece of evidence number 4: This post was all non-canon and a joke but i'm still going to mention it. That one ask about Ren messing around with Angel's bedsheets, your response was "Who's gonna tell em about what Leon does in the bathroom during your sleepovers?? ^^"

Okay that's all i have ! Hope you have a good day !!

✦゜ANSWERED: I'm gonna need you to be a bit more quiet.................

Paul and Lex were authorised to use a firearm

Emma, Lex, Becky and Steph have used one

Sometime after Emma (unauthorised) uses it, the helicopter crashes and Paul leaves for the Starlight Theatre where he gets infected

Sometime after Lex (authorised) uses it, they succeed in defeating Wiggly('s cult),

But sometime after Becky (unauthorised) uses it, Hatchetfield gets nuked

Sometime after Steph (unauthorised) uses it, Grace obtains the Black Book and starts devouring the souls of people she deems pervs

In conclusion, if people unathorised to use a firearm could just Not Use One, they might get a happy ending
