tbh a fascinating part of mcyt is how you can have characters fully divorced from the person playing them alongside people who are barely rping at all. in the same way that your d&d session might have the most intrictately written out OC alongside one player who is just playing themselves with a sword.

like i cant confidently list many traits of joe hills that arent shared between both their minecraft character and real-world self aside from, like, maybe owning that shirt and being able to use an elytra. but they also exist in the same universe as zombiecleo, a canonically undead zombie person, who exists in the same universe as mythical sausage, a dimension hopping animal whisperer, who exists in the same universe as xornoth, who doesnt have a real world equivilent.

so you kinda have to all or nothing it. because you cant exactly draw a line between the fictional characters and the guys playing minecraft when they're all like one server hop away from sharing lunch lmAO.

The leaks abt the new Viktor VGU confirming they're replacing all of his old skins and designs with the Arcane version is.... So so disappointing. I want to cry in frustration. Old Lore Viktor is self made, he and Jayce clashed over a difference in morals that were still understandable and grounded in reality. Viktor left, created his new body HIMSELF and used his ingenuity to help the people of Zaun. To replace all that with a sleek iPad version where he just gets possessed by an infected magic orb and ascends to godhood or whatever is SUCH a let down.

n*loth not being able to bag anyone over the (human term) age of 25-30 at most is the only logical and real conclusion to me because it can be just explained away as him wanting to prove and control everything and anyone (Cus he's a man!) but being stuck in that demographic because his unbearable and vile personality is a force that nobody can look past once they've outgrown the possible fear and idolization period of anyone but also n*loth in particular.

[ @heartsnbruises this IS an interesting question, and i hope you don't mind me elaborating way more than is necessary

personally, i think that no, lettie does not favor kneeling on her left knee -- primarily because the knee plate is a bit pointed, and looks like it juts out quite a bit from her shin even when her leg is bent. kneeling on that point seems like it would put a lot of pressure on the underlying bone and not provide a lot of balance.

additionally -- and this is literally just conjecture on my part -- i imagine lettie has crazy shin splint-esque pains in her legs and that that knee in particular is pretty painful, so she tries not to put weight on it. in the backroom she stands with her weight on her right leg; i thought it'd be fun to run with that.

so i can definitely see a different interpretation! but i've already put all my eggs in the "lettie's left knee is the Bad Knee" basket, and by god i'm not taking them out. someone has to suffer knee pains with me and i'm making it her problem.

now... this is going COMPLETELY off topic... but i did wonder for a bit about what the knee plate is even made of, and why lettie has it. i know the simple answer is "it's just a segment of her warframe carapace, whatever that is" but we can get whackier. because it's odd that the progression of her mutation is so asymmetrical, compared to the other hex; and on a meta level, it's odd because base trinity does NOT have pointed knee plates (trinity prime does. did lettie's designer take visual cues from trin prime? maybe!)

personally i think lettie sustained a knee injury at some point and the combination of the serum & her own regenerative powers resulted in sort of a bone spur situation where her body over-zealously started forming More Bone/other tissue to repair the damage done.

so what is the plate made of? if it's an extension of the existing bone, presumably it has a blood supply and nerve endings. is it like a true horn you would see on a goat, with a keratin sheath (or something akin to it) containing a core? can it be used for thermoregulation? is that why lettie doesn't wear any damn pants?? because she's hot all the time??? this is actually fun and i MIGHT run with this LOL

OR is this more of an antler situation? did it grow in with vascular tissue that sloughed off when the bone calcified (metallicized?), like you would see with an antler (sucks to think about)? will the plate fall off eventually? will it keep growing for the rest of her life? does she have to shave it down occasionally? if there's a keratin sheath (or if it's all keratin with no core, like a rhinoceros horn), can it eventually be worn down to resemble base trinity's flatter knee pads? i don't know! when it comes to protoframe specbio i'm flying by the seat of my pants LOL]

My toxic crafter trait is that I'll see something and think, "Yeah I could do that."

I learned how to machine sew this year, and have not yet done any significant patchwork, but I'll see a pattern like this

and not only will I think, "Yeah, I can absolutely do that," but also, "Of course I can adapt that for equilateral triangles!"

And?

I'm not often wrong. Often I can do the thing.

But I didn't say I could do it well.

alphinaud and alisaie are an example of siblings written by people who know siblings very well and choose to have them call each other brother and sister, proving that telling people not to write this quirk because it gives away that you’re an only child is just shorthand for how it’s a common warning indicator of thoughtless sibling writing and isn’t actually the problem itself
