My mercury rx in virgo (where it's exalted so it has an extra corrective nature) is finding out that "someone is a piece of work" means someone is unpleasant or nasty, not that someone is "a piece of art" aka pretty.
That's all I wanted to say, thank you.
#i lived in a lie for a few years#to my defense#the person was apparently also v beautiful so i assumed there's a correlation in these two statements#had a weird hunch today to actually google it#this kind of reminded me of a polish saying which is hard to translate directly to english#but now that i'm googling the idiomatic translation it does indeed translate to a piece of work lol#i haven't experienced an english mistranslation in... honestly i can't remember lol#random

Very late to the party but since the 2.0 is coming soon I thought I would finish the storylines I didn't finish before in Cyberpunk 2077. One of them was Corpo path and the Devil ending... Holy damn.
In my personal opinion, corpo path was much more satisfying than streetkid and better than the Star ending I did initially. Actually got emotional and teary a tiny bit. If not for Judy issue with this ending I would be pretty happy. Sucks like hell, since she was my favorite out of romantic interests, now I'm not sure if River doesn't beat her a tiny bit because of the conversation I had with him on the phone in this ending. But well, I'm sure everyone complained about that enough already so I'm gonna cut it here.
For sure I will give the Sun and Temperance a go, but on the corpo path since I'm so invested after the last one and I don't have enough time to go from the start again before the update.
We'll see, maybe after the update and Phantom Liberty comes out I will do all of them once again if changes will be significant enough. Pretty satisfied either way.
#cyberpunk 2077#cyberpunk#corpo path#corpo vi#the Devil#streetkid vi#judy alvarez#river ward#to my defense#i did buy the game over the year after release since I wouldn't run it before anyway#with all the issues at the start I think it was for the better#i could enjoy the game for what it should've been#i'm very happy with it now

the curse of summer is buying and eating an inadvisable amount of fruit in single sittings.

I can behave normally around books
#shitpost#anyway guess who brought home 24 new books today?#if you guessed me. well. you would be correct#in my defense I only bought 5#for a combined total of usd#where’d the number go. it was 17 usd#the rest were from me going through what my dad was getting rid of for space and claiming it for myself#but either way#24 in one day is a personal record I think#also I do fully intend to read all of these it’s not hoarding for hoardings sake

Honestly, I love it when characters relapse. When someone who’s gotten over their anger issues falls into a situation so out of their depth they fall back on their old habits. When someone who’s learned to open up becomes a recluse again in order to cope with something outside their control.
There’s just something so horrible, so toxic, about watching a character grow and then slip back into their old selves in order to cope, bc you know they still care, that they’re the same inside, but watching them hurt so hard they don’t know what else to do brings a sense of catharsis.
#writeblr#writing#writers on tumblr#writing community#creative writing#my writing#fanfic#fanfiction#one of those tropes that has to be played carefully tho#it’s important to show them wresting with it#and realizing what they’re doing#but being so lost in their pain they don’t know what to do#show they’re contrary feelings and that they’re still the same inside#it’s just a defense mechanism#also don’t make it seem like a flick of a switch#a slow process of relapse and a slow process of recovery from it is also important#not a plot twist for the sake of it#or played for drama#but a legitimate change with real consequences#just yappin#writing prompts#writing tropes#writing stuff#writing characters#characters#character arcs#oc stuff#tropes#trope talk

I think it's super interesting how Jimmy's fear of Anya and the baby manifests in his mind as the Pony Express mascot.
Unlike every other character, Anya ISN'T in Jimmy's guilt/regret hallucinations near the end. He sees Daisuke walk towards the dark, he sees Swansea chase him through a cemetery, he sees Curly on fire in front of him but ANYA? Anya isn't given that kind of treatment. No, instead, we see a hallucination of the baby, a tiny horse in a womb that has no face attached to it (Anya's face specifically, all he sees is the womb), turning into a deformed monster that hunts him down the moment it's born.
Polle (the baby) is seen as a danger in Jimmy's head in the beginning of the game too, after he walks out of the cockpit. The more he walks, the louder the baby noises get and the more deformed Polle looks when he runs into it!
Jimmy doesn't give a damn about Anya, nor does he regret anything he did to her, but he is scared of that baby and what it means. The living proof of what he did to Anya, manifesting as a monster that hunts him down throughout the game.

#mouthwashing#Polle says: FACE THE CONSEQUENCES OF YOUR ACTIONS INSTEAD OF BEING DELUSIONAL!!#god please take all of Anya's pain.. double it and give it to Jimmy#this might be gibberish but in my defense it's 2 in the morning and I am very sleep deprived#mouthwashing jimmy#mouthwashing anya#mouthwashing curly#mouthwashing daisuke#mouthwashing swansea

She just sat contented in the comfy chair as I built this up around her

I call this installation “The Cat of Amontillado.”

Everyone jokes about reading a fic or a book and realizing the author’s barely concealed kink, but no one talks about what it’s like to be a writer, squinting at your manuscript and realizing, yeah, actually, this is probably something…
#men lacing women into corsets. apparently#in my defense it’s the Intimacy 🤌#it’s the act of service 🤌#it’s yeah it’s a thing lmao
