i thought my luck with relics in h.sr was bad, but apparently wuwa's echoes HATE ME MORE.

I was saving farming the unaltered banished knight armour as one of my very last things for this run bc its an easily accessible grind (no long run to another location, u can get his attention directly from a crenel where the site of grace is) but also not a mindless one (fun fight n requires u to actually pay attention instead of being a 1shottable enemy n supposedly has a very low droprate so u gotta be efficient) but I opened the game today and deadass got it on my first fucking attempt. bruh

[tomsmother]

Oh no we actually had a wonderful night... the dad left pretty early and the dude was dancing to punk tunes and the woman and I were having discussions abt my gay as fuxk hookups. First thing is I come in and the woman tells me she's been missing me (cause I've been away for a week) and i say this isnt just a job to me, like were talking with wet eyes RIGHT? (AND shes talking way more freely than normal so i ask where the man is and hes showering) And as the night progresses, she asked me how i felt about her sexuality!! Like she straight up asked if I thought she was queer!! And I told her ya I had always thought she was, but I sometimes hope women are queer and then I look for confirmation. So that was kinda me telling her I hope she is queer (I wonder If she caught that)?? And like if I'm not a little into her why would I hope she's queer??

Ok so they're trying to end the night and she and I have a fucking deep hug like like i feel her back muscles under my hands right?? And the dude is in another room so we hold each other for a while. Like a long while???. Like long enough to think bout how good it feels and for me to consider kissing her right ?? So then I pull away and then i go to kiss her forehead and I kiss her right eye and I play it off... And then she pulls away and kisses MY cheek. Then the man comes out of the bedroom and were chil just hugging hard and then I hug him and I leave??

Ok so I'll tell you guys she and I hugged 2 times like real tight ok? First hug was good but I was still sitting. So I stand up and insist on another hug. And she's gripping me hard, right and I feel her back muscles along her spine. And God damn we held each other for a while. Then my dude boss comes into the room so I hug him and thank him too. ???

what if freevic meet each other in the present day…. i think about it all the time

i meant to draw this tmr but they took over

some things to note:

- freedom is also an escaped stick from a PC and upon meeting vic, vowed that in the future he would help future sticks like them in need to escape to the outernet and be safe

- vic supported this and encouraged him to do it

- freedom constantly encouraged vic to get help for his mental health and vic just kept self sabotaging till the point of them breaking up

- vic burned his farm/village and faked his death to become the “new, better person” that freedom always wanted him to be(he also blamed the fire on chodark being terrorists but that’s not rlly important here)

- before the fire, vic gifted freedom one of his feathers(even tho i didn’t draw vic with wings here because i was lazy)

rating the changes between tmr book and movie

anyone who read the books first knows that the movie trilogy ended up telling a completely different story. i've been a big fan of the books forever so i thought i'd rate the significant changes made in the first one since it's generally the same plot. scale is 0-5 with 5 being good change.

the gladers initially not remembering their names: 3/5. maybe it was done to raise the stakes and make it more disorienting.

there are no real buildings in the glade: 1/5. this implies they had to start completely from scratch when they first arrived, which makes the maze seem like a test of survival rather than willpower and psychology.

leading on from that... the maze is actually outdoors: 0/5. you're telling me they had rain and lots of greenery in an outdoor structure in a desert climate? and the gladers had no real shelter provided? it also makes the test of their determination less powerful, because in the books, the maze was an indoor structure. the fact that they could technically climb the walls and see the outside world in the movies removes some of hopelessness and frustration for me.

ben is a runner: 4/5. makes sense! especially since we never learned how he got stung as a builder in the books.

the gladers are allowed to have a bit of fun: 5/5. i love the bonfire scene. i think it's a realistic change that a bunch of teenage boys would want to let loose every now and then.

they were there 3 years instead of 2: 4/5. i mean, sure.

no one has ever seen a griever before and survived: 0/5. makes no sense at all because the gladers are aware of the changing as a process! if no one has ever survived encountering a griever, where did they get this precedent from? how did they recognise that ben was stung? perhaps this info was just newt being dramatic since it comes from his dialogue.

they don't have grief serum until teresa arrives: 1/5. again, doesn't make sense. the changing being a process they're familiar with which brings back memories after they get the serum is entirely destroyed in the movie. this is the catalyst for a lot of the events in the book and it loses all its function.

several of the characters are different in personality: varies. thomas is more typically 'cool' in the movie and less curious and, to put it bluntly, less annoying. i don't like this change much, his constant curiosity and eagerness to learn and discover was a huge part of who he was in the books (if you know mbti, all i have to say is he was an INTP in the books and an ISTP in the movies). then we have minho, who was way less brash, hot headed, and reckless in the movies (he was also made into an ISTP while he was an ESTP in the books). i think alby is a bit different. i like both portrayals of alby, but i think he seemed nicer and more chill in the movie, probably just because the actor was very charismatic. this works because he can easily be charismatic as a leader. but him also being a stressed out kid with too much responsibility in the books, leading to him lashing out more and being less calm and collected, makes sense! gally is a bit nicer, actually rational at times, in the movie. he's also not, like, pathetic and embarrassingly petty. these are all traits in the book which emphasise the fact that he's a scared kid, so this also isn't my favorite change ever.

thomas gets memories back in his dreams: 1/5. unnecessary and completely removes the high stakes of him having no recollection of his involvement with WICKED.

minho doesn't find a dead griever: 3/5. at least they still accounted for why alby had to go into the maze. i still wish they did it.

alby was alone in the glade for a whole month: 1/5. it is not logical that someone would be able to run a whole farm and build shelter all alone at 15 years old without any help. it also doesn't make sense that he wouldn't have gotten killed in the maze on accident.

teresa doesn't come up one day after thomas: 2/5. i guess it doesn't really matter, but this is just one element of the timeline being quite different that wasn't necessary to change.

minho helps thomas save alby in the maze: 0/5. this is thomas's first big act of heroism and the thing that makes minho respect him. they should've kept thomas doing it alone.

the grievers are completely different: 2/5. i understand that this is probably a design issue for the movie, but the book concept of the grievers is better.

the maze is completely different: 1/5. i don't like the movie maze... why is it a circle. the idea of the 8 square sections that are repeating and consistent makes the maze so much more frustrating and bewildering! also that part in the movie where the walls start to fall and the floors come up... why. there's also no code hidden in the walls, which was a very cool element.

no cliff/griever hole: 2/5. not terrible because this would be hard to show on screen. but the fact that instead, in the movie, there is just a visible section that the runners never found before is a bit unrealistic.

gally never went through the changing: 0/5. gally's hatred for thomas in the movie is baseless, while in the book it's clearly about suspicion and fear. he's an understandable antagonist in the book.

thomas and teresa don't have telepathy: 3/5. would've been hard to portray on screen. takes away from the depth of their connection, however.

the gladers give up too easily: 0/5. this one bothers me! when all the other runners in the movie randomly quit their jobs. the whole point in the books is that they'd never do that.

thomas is looked to as a leader: 0/5. when he starts giving orders in the movie and leads the charge into the maze.... ughhh. again i think they tried to make him a more cool and admirable protagonist, but i think a big part of the books is that thomas never saw himself as particularly special, or a leader. he couldn't have done anything he did without minho's, newt's, alby's, teresa's etc skill, authority, support. they were a team and a family. instead, in the movie, they start to follow him without question when he was barely there five days.

the grievers don't only kill 1 glader per night: 2/5. adds tension but also takes away from the fact that the maze again wasn't a test of survival.

alby's and chuck's deaths were essentially swapped: 0/5. i really dislike this change. they took away the fact that alby's fear changed him, and that his last act was both selfless and scared. in the movie he just died on accident. then i think chuck actually chose to sacrifice himself in the movie, when in the books he was forced to as a variable by WICKED. this absolutely takes away from the utter pointlessness of chuck's death, and it's also ooc for a scared 12 year old to choose to die when he so badly wanted to escape.

thomas had no real reason to sting himself: 0/5. he already had memories coming back in dreams and they already believed they had found an escape in the maze. he literally had no reason to go through the changing in the movie and it's a bit overdramatic for no reason.

people take gally seriously as a leader: 2/5. this only happened because alby got killed off early in the movie.

this is one of my least favorite changes so i saved it for last. nalby erasure: 0/5. the movies definitely take away that alby was newt's best friend and the person he cared for and protected most. likewise, in the books, thomas's favorite and most prioritised glader (along with teresa) was actually always minho. although thominho wasn't erased as much in the movies, the fact that those two pairings were the strongest bonds we ever got between the boys in the books isn't really there in the movies. i think the movies allowed people to forget that newt being canonly gay actually means alby is his most likely love interest!

GSGW Wiki: Update 2

Hi, everyone! I've been working on the wiki for GSGW for almost a month now (having taken a little break due to exam season) with some help, and I think it's time to put it out into the world soon!

It isn't anywhere near finished, but fandom wikis are meant to be a collaborative effort, so I'd love for it to grow with the rest of the fans' input too!

Regarding WHERE the wiki will be, that's still something I wanted to know what you all think- creating a wiki from the FANDOM Wiki platform is easier and anyone can do it, but without an ad blocker it's also rly annoying to use. Other platforms such as Miraheze and Wiki.gg have standards, need to be reviewed by staff, and might take some time before they're allowed to be released, so it might be harder to do it there, but ABSOLUTELY possible.

If the wiki goes to FANDOM then I was thinking about starting to work on exporting all the information we got ready, but I think I'll need some help with that... I have some above basic knowledge of web development, but I've never worked with wikis, so it'd take a while before I figured out how to do everything.

If we put it in another wiki farm then it might take some time for them to review the request for the wiki, so it's a bit different.

If anyone has knowledge of how to create wikis or is simply interested in helping with creating the wiki they'd be more than welcome to join me on this effort! I might create a small discord server for people who are interested in working on this so if that's your case u can comment or send me a message here :DD

(tmr I should be able to show what we've done so far! Wish I could do that now but I don't have my computer and Notion looks funny on mobile 😔)

Hellooo, will you continue writing for A Sinner's Redemption

I am! Don't you worry. Now that my health has improved and my university is out for the summer, I finally have the time and motivation to write again. Just to prove my words, here is a snippet from the next chapter (which I hope will be finished tmr)

꧁___________꧂ 

Piper bit her lip, and her eyes fell on Ellie's sleeping figure. "All I've ever…Have you ever thought you were cursed?" Joel shook his head. "I think I'm cursed. Actually, I know I am," Piper scoffed.

"Cursed?" Joel questioned.

"To kill." Piper pulled her arm away from Ellie and stared at her shaking hands. In the light of the fire they only grew more red; A dark red that seemed to seep underneath her skin. She shuddered. "It's all I was used for in the QZ. It's all I've known." She couldn't bare to look at her hands any longer, instead resorted shoving them under her legs. "I'm cursed to kill when all I want is to save…but I can't." her voice caught in her throat. "I can only save Ellie. She's all that matters. So, as long as I can do that, I'll be fine."

"Kid," Joel paused. "Piper." The sound of her name drew her attention. "You are more than a sister. You can want something for yourself that is outside of Ellie."

Piper scoffed. "Says you. You've been on and on about Tommy. What about you then? What is your dream outside of Tommy?"

"I-" Joel began to refute Piper's words, but something stopped him. She was right. He'd started this whole thing for Tommy: picked up the girls, lost Tess, danced with death, saw the impossible, and all for someone who could be dead. Piper and him were one in the same. As long as their family was safe and happy, so would they be. But as Joel really pondered her question, the dream of the farm came back into mind. The farm with the quiet sheep, the peaceful life. Except now this dream had room for more, yet Joel wasn't sure if there was room for his girls in the first place.  

"It's getting late," Joel remarked, standing up again to patrol. This time, Piper didn't refuse sleep. Instead, she let the silence close in on her as the warmth of the fire cascaded over her body. The only sign of life was the slow rise and fall of her chest, the rhythm to which Joel stepped as he guarded his girls from the looming horrors of the night.

definitely didn’t do this instead of sleeping last night… 😑 it’s very messy and I was working off of pure will power and a 5-hour energy, but the rough concept for the TMR house, please humor me and my craziness

( first floor: kitchen, living room, dining room, laundry room, and bathroom #1)

(Second floor: A crap ton of bedrooms, bathroom #2, a second kind of living room/ hang out spot (???), and a balcony)

(Third floor/ attic: personal condo for splinter bc he’s is genuinely terrified of what he has created, also he deserves it)

the perfectionist in me wants to map out the whole farm, but I’m not sure anyone would want that, so I’ll just sit here and admire this for awhile
