Anooother big ol long post for the day probably.
I realize now why the device G’raha sent has the Ironworks logo on it... I didn’t remember this detail before but it’s nice. Also that BIGGS is the character that’s front and center during this sequence.
Ohhhhhhh my god the WoL reaching for the memory of Ardbert!!!! Oh my god!!!! WAIT! I GET TO SEE ARDBERT AGAIN SOON!!!!!!!!! FUCK YES. GOD. Have I mentioned that I fucking adore Shadowbringers???
OH THERE HE IS... BABY NO.... TO SUFFER FOR SO LONG AS A SHADOW OF YOURSELF...
Kinda funny that they have a merchant triplet look-alike from the intro to the game, just to kill him off immediately. Oh. OH. He thinks you’re turning? I think that’s it. That confused me so much originally.
“The one true struggle” Between dark and light... I wonder how that will continue and eventually end in Endwalker.
G’raha this is completely unfair. i come in search of my dear friends who I thought might as well have been dead. When I ask if they’re here, you say “It’s complicated”. And now you’re wasting more time trying to endear me to your city, but why should I go along when you won’t even tell me about my friends? Oh also he almost got the WoL killed? Why the hell would they go along with any of this lmao.
Oh. It’s whose FATES that are closest to the WoL’s that were called but ah. That’s a bit of a grandfather paradox, no? I sincerely doubt Urianger would have contributed much to the WoL’s fate otherwise, weaseled away constantly as he was from the action. Speaking of, right off the bat G’raha is setting up his deception. I’m forgetting why G’raha isn’t allowed to talk about why he knows the future, though. He already established that there exist in the world time shenanigans.
Ohh G’raha is so excited to have his friend here this is cute. “Perhaps I can show you around?” Dude you already sent me on a tour of a city. And he sounds so happy about it. The WoL hasn’t even mentioned yet that they nearly got murdered because of him...
Aw hell yeah Feo Ul. I remember I really didn’t like her at first but... she’s so funny and nice I wuv her. OH! And here’s Ardbert! Love that guy.
My goodness G’raha has a nasty habit of obscuring information. Why don’t you wanna tell me about Thancred’s companion, huh, G’raha? Oh you’re supposed to be this scholarly master of the tower and don’t even know that name I gave you, your name? What makes getting to Urianger and Y’shtola so difficult?
While in the Thanalan equivalent, “Would that everyone was so willing to take in refugees regardless of race or creed.” That is so cheeky and uncalled for lmao. This town is hilarious. My guy just tried to eat 15 whole jars of glazed worms on his own... i had him chicken out of it just to see the dialogue but know that Secret ate all of her chosen meal--the spiced lizard meat--all on her lonesome.
Just decided I’m going to level SMN to 70. I want all the roles.
I am now eradicating Doran’s freckles. They served him well with his previous hair and general vibe but there was just too much going on in the center of his face with the scar on top of it. His previous hair framed his face a lot closer, but with this hair all of that made the negative space on his forehead that much more prominent. I’ll excuse it as him... I don’t know, growing out of it? Maybe visiting the First did something to him idk.
He looks like a shitty goth dude now this is hilarious. With the face paint freed up I can give him faint black eye shadow that make his eyes look even more sullen/strange. this is great. He’s pasty as hell, has long dark purple hair, the scar across his face... exclusively now wears dark blues and purples... this is so fucking funny Doran depression era is real. Grappling with his own existence has been so hard on him that it popped the freckles right off of his face. I will not lie though. This is an improvement. His previous outfits and hair were supposed to be more fun and a bit silly bit we are now in Serious territory. He watched his friends pretty much die. Almost got killed himself. All that previous trauma. Is going to make a very dear friend/enemy and defeat him. Almost die himself again AND kill literally everyone else at the same time because he isn’t strong enough. And of course once he finally remembers who he and Secret and Ardbert are, things are gonna go to shit.
At least he still looks permanently bemused, at least to me. One my fc gets a house and we all finally meet up I’ll have to ask their opinion about Doran. He looks perfectly off-putting and oddly pretty to me.
Hm... I’ve been wondering how I would describe Doran. His personality, I mean. He was originally conceived to be in general the cocky promiscuous bard sort, hence his starting class
oh man when did i write that. i was gonna explain my Thoughts. but it has been hours and i’m sleepy it’s daylight out/ this is enough for now.

I find it amazing how a single person can change your world drastically your perspectives and even in yourself. Doing things you have never done before. And actually enjoying it. I was never into love songs because i dont feel it, love stories because it is too cringey for me, I don't look at couple goals couz i think they're fake or something.
Then i found my self listening into love song hahaha, actually searching for a song that fits our story. Then in the latter part I'll try to learn the song so i can sing it for you, then your reactions. You made me feel like I won the lottery or I'm the first man on the moon or I won in a biggest contest. Your reaction makes me so happy. That's why I want to do it more often.
Mostly when it comes to movies I like the actions, fantasy or sci fi. Then I started liking the love story and even cry when they broke up hahaha I like the feeling when some part of the movie is something that you actually do with me hahaha specially the jealous part but you dont want to admit it. Every scene makes me miss you more and reminds me of us, our bondings, how you make me feel loved, how you appreciate me in everything I do, your efforts.
Thank you for coming into my life luvie, you have no idea how happy I am to be love by you.
Thank you for accepting all of the things about me to be honest I still can't believe that i have you, like I'm still asking myself do i really deserve you. I have a messed up family, I'm the black sheep, I'm not good at everything, most of the time i fucked up, I hove nothing. Why me? I cant remember any good thing that i have done good. Then theres you, kind, loving, thoughtful, honest, true friend, strong, beautiful, smart, selfless, god loving, pure hearted. Gashhh luvieee you're perfect.
How you make me feel safe. You have given me more than enough assurance. Now i fear nothing. I was able to love you this way, i was able to give my all again, and to trust fully again and thats is all because of you. You make me miss you every single day. My love grows for you every minute. Gunayuma mo ba ako? Hahahaha kasi hindi ko mapaliwanag how, why, when and how much I love you ng ganito kabilis.
How? All i have to do dati is to protect you tapos eto na boyfriend mo haha
Why? I don't know the reason why dati i just found out that I like you
When? Di ko alammmm hahaha tbh nagulat lang ako i was into you na.
How much i love you? Ohhhhhhh only god knows how much I love you ;)
So basically ginayuma mo ako haha nilagay mo ba sa shot ko? Haha penge lagyan ko din sayo hahaha
And all of the moments we had gashh priceless. List ko paba ? Baka mainlove ka sa sarili mo haha na bahala ka mahaba to sooooooooooo yu g iba or mostly alam mo na ehh haha basta
Things that i love, i appreciate, i like about you lubieeedubdub
When you call me luv, good morning & good nights, when you says i love you or i miss you first, when you're praning when I go out, when you get jealous when hearing a girls name, when you hold my hand tightly, when you says how much you love me,when you flex me, whe you touch my face, how you make me feel like i matter, how you make me feel wanted,that I am important, the way you defended and protecting me,for praying for me, when i do things for you, when you tell me your cravings, the way you laugh, the way you make me laugh, little staring contest the sudden outburst, when you want massage (mapilit haha), whe you want me to touch you face, you bites, the way you kiss, the tone difference, body language, sudden hug or unannounced kiss, when meeting you suddenly you throw your whole body at me, when you kiss me when i was asleep, the way you say i love you, secretly holding my hand.
I can still go on but baka di mo basahin tamad ka ehh hahaha i love youu
But to be honest you've made me a better person, For the first time in my life someone makes me open up to world once again, teaching me that there are more possibilities, thank you for opening my heart, You've made me realize that I'm doing something wrong, that there should be a door on the walls i built to protect my heart, because i was also blocking out the persons who actually cares for me. Thank you for introducing me you ely. I really don't know much about them but i like the way they care for you, and in make me feel at ease even if im not with you because in my heart i know that they will keep yo safe at all times.
I love you with all my heart
Pero right now I keep on thinking
How can make you smile?
How can i make you laugh?
How can i make you happy?
How can i keep someone like you?
That you're stronger than I think you are
But inside ?
You're fragile
You're delicate
That's why i want to protect you more
I just want you to know that i love you so much and i will never let you go. When you feel like the world is against you im always here for you.And will never leave your side
That I can be whatever you want me to be
I can be your friend if you want to open up
I can me you walking twitter if you want to rant something
I can be you boyfriend if you need love and affection
I can be your husband that will take and hold your hands
Until my last breath
Remembering how we started, all the chances we had, all of the sayang, all of the sana, all of the muntikan
We still ended up together
I love you soooo much
In this world full of negativity I can be your positive one
Ps not sure kung kelan mo mababasa to hahaha.

I Woke Up Like This (29)
Yesssssss, your girl is 29 years old! Way ohhhhhhh. Confetti cannons are exploding in my mind guys, I cannot believe it I have made it this far in life, what a feat.
It's been over a month since Bae and I had our birthdays and we are officially in the last year of our 20s and 30s respectively, before we hit big milestone birthdays.
So much has happened in this short space of time and honestly I feel like I am rapidly becoming a level of adult that you never think about when you're a kid and dreaming of the days you'll eat cake for breakfast.
I mean don’t get me wrong I am absolutely also internally panicking because this is the last year of my 20s and oh my goodness when I make mistakes I will not have the excuse of my 20s to blame it on. This alone is the singular most terrifying thought.
I’m picturing the meme of that cartoon dog sat in a room full of fire while drinking a cup of tea. The fire is the existential crisis and his calm demeanour is basically all of us trying to make it through the day without having a nervous breakdown.
Cue *Hello Darkness, my old friend*.
No seriously and honestly, I am actually really excited to be another year older. I’ve said this a lot in the last couple of months and maybe it’s because it’s something I am really and truly recognising for the first time in my life, but I am blessed to be here.
Some of us didn’t make it, and that hurts my heart. I don’t know why, but I know I’m here and I know the best way to honour those who are no longer with us, is to live well and fully.
Both Bae and I have both lost family and learning to carry on in the midst of grief is something that is a constant oscillating journey, especially since we are also still planning our wedding.
Making sure we dont feel guilt for that is important to us because we are so excited to start this new chapter of our lives.
This time last year I actually had a pretty great birthday. I had just come back from Disney, I felt calm cool and collected. I was feeling grown and pretty much ready to take on the world. Then the last thing I thought would happen, happened. I was not cool or calm or collected and actually 90% of the time I felt incredibly overwhelmed.
Yep, tour life will do that for you.
I found myself annoyed and ashamed. I was so ready to be on top of everything and feeling good and dispelling bad energy and closer to God and super holy and wholesome and here I was honestly feeling the complete opposite. I had failed. I was a failure. Thus began the conversational negative tone that tended to flit in and out of my days for the rest of my birthday year.
It just wasn’t right. It wasn’t what I wanted. So I took the steps I needed to do to address it.
Now with the wisdom and experience of another blessed year and reaching out to improve my emotional, mental, physical and spiritual health, I find myself in a very different place.
I find myself in a place in which I have no expectations AT ALL.
I’ve got this terrible habit of raising the bar higher and higher for myself, but the problem is I tend to be too short to reach. I get a crick in my neck looking up for the bar I think I should be reaching for in order to do several pull ups, instead of looking a bit closer to home and practising my technique before I even attempt a pull up at all.
Now today, at 29, I don’t expect anything not because I do not want for anything but because it’s but because doing my best is more important than trying to be a perfect idea of myself.
Being me right now, good and bad and embracing where I am at and the growth of my journey is better than trying to pretend that I am perfected right now.
I am imperfectly perfect. Working on myself. Growing. Prayerfully getting older and I am grateful for the whole experience.
So this is 29 guys.
A fine wine because it has a bunch of different flavours, accents and it will only get better over time.

Okay, it’s time to share my Westworld thoughts. Now that I’ve snuck over to the Westworld reddit and read some information, I’m less “??????????????????” than I was two days ago, so my thoughts have less question marks in them :P
I don’t think anyone who follows me watches Westworld, so this is me basically just talking aloud to myself:
I will be continuing to check the #westworld and #clementine tags until someone’s gif’d the sequence that was most DEFINITELY a direct reference to The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse - with Clementine and her horse very obviously being Death - so I can reblog the frick out of it. (EDIT: IT WAS GIF’D!) Clementine made for such a wonderful representation of this because of how.. well, “dead” she looked. Her skeletal facial structure and that expression she kept on her face.. it was incredibly gorgeous imagery.
I’m annoyed that we never received an explanation for Maeve getting OP mind-control powers. There has to be SOME explanation for it, right? I thought maybe Ford orchestrated it, until Ford made Bernard stand close so he could deliver the message “whoa I just meant for you to escape but you came back holy crap you’re a pretty cool gal, didja know you’re my favorite? anyways pls don’t die yet, okay bye”. Her power was just so absurdly OP that I kept waiting all season for the Deep Underlying Reason™ behind it, but it never came. (Unless it just completely went over my head?) The biggest reason I’m annoyed about this is because of the writing; it seemed like a very cheap way to escape conflicts her and the gang otherwise wouldn’t have been able to escape from. The writing seemed especially cheap around the Shogun era episodes, where her abilities did or didn’t work depending on whether they wanted the characters in conflict or to escape conflict. (“You can’t command them ‘cause you’re not doing it in their language” “Oh guess what you know every language ever, but I guess you still can’t command them” “Hey but now you can command them with your mind!”) I feel like most people’s Maeve thoughts have been “YYAAAASS QUEEN YOU’RE SO POWERFUL” while I’ve been standing in a corner going “...this feels like really cheap writing .__.” (I still love Maeve as a character, I just don’t like her superpower.)
I suppose we still have a chance that season 3 might provide an explanation, but I’m wary. Her power was introduced too early in this season to be a “Oooh, cliffhanger that will only be answered in the next season!” thing. Plus I thought it was gonna be some deep intricate Ford-orchestrated thing to make certain season 2 events get rolling the way he wanted them to. ..But it wasn’t.
I freaking KNEW William would be a robot (or something else fake) that didn’t know it!! ...However, I definitely didn’t predict anything else about what happened with him. :P Plus now I’m pretty sure the William we saw during season 2 was human. (An interview confirmed that the post-credits scene is a “future” William in the “far, far, future”.) Tumblr user @dare-to-do-our-duty‘s theory was my first exposure to the “Fake!William is being tested to see if there’s any way he goes through the experience without killing his daughter” idea, and I’ve gotta agree with something along the lines of that.
Wanting to kill himself but not being able to (when it showed him pointing a gun to his head, I thought there was a chance they were gonna use that to reveal that he can’t die ‘cause he’s a robot or something) while also being stuck in some endless loop of a game is a pretty torturous hell. And very Black Mirror-esque, which is why I loved the James Delos thing as well as this concept. They’re things I can easily imagine being in a Black Mirror episode. So would William ACTUALLY do that to himself? ..Then again, he now appears to really hate himself, so yeah, I kinda think he would.
I’m curious about if there’s any scenes other than the post-credits scene we saw that were actually from Fake!William’s timeline instead of human William’s timeline. (It’s not like it would be easy for us to tell.) I know everybody’s already pointed out how he took 230492398 bullets but still didn’t die.. but, well, you know how TV shows can be sometimes. :P
Why was Dolores bulletproof against William?? Did I completely miss something??? I’ve even been googling this and can’t find an answer
In the post-credits scene, William says, “I’m already in the thing, aren’t I?” Emphasis on “A L R E A D Y”. I think this implies that he came up with the idea for this fairly shortly after he killed Emily. (At the very least, he came up with the idea before he reached the Forge.) This is why he uses the word “already”, because in his mind he’s probably like, “God dammit. I came up with this idea and looks like I actually went and did it. God dammit. I went through with it, and now here I am as one of the fakes. God fucking dammit.”
My lurking on the reddit helped me understand that William didn’t like his user profile and wanted to prove that it’s possible for him, a human, to change (through putting himself in these loops). You know, the opposite of what Digital!Logan says. Thanks, reddit. (I mean that genuinely, not sarcastically)
I suspect that the moment William kills Emily is his equivalent of James Delos always coming back to the scene where he talks to Logan for the last time. That’s probably what stays the same each loop, unfortunately.
“I’m nothing like you.” YEAH NO, SORRY DOLORES, WILLIAM IS A WORSE PERSON THAN YOU BUT YOU CAN’T SAY YOU’RE “NOTHING” LIKE HIM. You freaking maxed the aggression level of the most pure cinnamon roll character of the series (Teddy) against his will, and he’s such a cinnamon roll that even at his max aggression, he killed himself (and didn’t kill you) because of what you did to him. So no, sorry, you don’t get to claim you’re NOTHING like William >:l
Dang, what’s with the amount of people on Tumblr that want William actually GONE from the series? I understand you’re supposed to root against the villain and all, but I never thought I’d be THIS alone in enjoying some good ol’ fashioned well-written, well-acted, fictional villainy on screen. I know most of my favorites tend to be villains and anti-heroes, but still. Hot Take™: Would Tumblr hate him less if he were attractive? ..Nevermind, pretend I didn’t say that >.>
I hated Lee during season 1, so I’m pretty impressed at how much season 2 got me to like him!! I LOVE THAT HE GOT TO GIVE HIS OWN WRITTEN SPEECH ;__; His death made me genuinely sad not just because of that, but because I think he’s one of the few characters that genuinely won’t be coming back.
On that note, I didn’t mourn any of the other 230498 character deaths (except maybe Elsie’s), ‘cause come on now, you KNOW they’re coming back from robot death. :P I’m sure Felix and whatshisname will help bring Maeve back, for example. I’m serious.
I liked Stubbs’ last scene, heh (and no, I don’t think he’s a robot; in this context, him being human is actually cooler)
I’m doubtful about whether or not any of Dolores’ brain balls are Teddy. Seems to me like he’s the only one she thinks deserves robot heaven.
Charlotte being Dolores wasn’t as cool as a plot twist to me as it was impressive that Charlotte’s actress could pull off Dolores’ persona so well. I feel like there weren’t enough hints or foreshadowing to give it that “WHOA” factor, unlike season 1′s “William = Man in Black” twist. (Which had a ton of hints, making me super annoyed at myself for not seeing it earlier. :P) I’m not finding myself looking back on season 2 and going “OHHHHHHH”, is what I mean. The writing made this a lackluster twist, in my opinion.
I LOVED how Ford’s “death = becoming music” thing was extended to how people’s coding was represented in the Forge!!
Bernard’s confusion throughout the season irked me ‘cause it mirrored my own confusion too closely for comfort, haha
Me: Hey Bernard, can you please go back to your regular straight-thinking self so that I can know what’s going on again? Bernard: Actually, since I know important stuff I can’t let others know, I need to turn my head into scrambled eggs. Sorry. /faints Me: Gosh darn it Bernard
Even with me now knowing that Benard purposely turned his memories into scrambled eggs (and for good reason), I STILL think season 2′s absurd amount of time jumps were unnecessary. In my opinion, only a FEW of them were necessary. This is my main complaint about season 2.
Overall, I was actually kinda disappointed with season 2 because season 1 blew my mind while simultaneously making me go “OHHHHHH, WHOA”, but season 2 didn’t, plus in my opinion the writing was poor in certain areas. My favorite episodes were the one about the James Delos experiment, and the second-to-last episode about William and his family. I do enjoy the whole “we’re trying to achieve immortality for humans” plot point. Also, my opinion on Dolores is iffy, leaning more towards the negative side I think??
I uh, think I’m done now

I Woke Up Like This | The Last Year Of My 20s
Yesssssss, your girl is 29 years old! Way ohhhhhhh. Confetti cannons are exploding in my mind guys, I cannot believe it I have made it this far in life, what a feat. I mean don’t get me wrong I am absolutely also internally panicking because this is the last year of my 20s and oh my goodness when I make mistakes I will not have the excuse of my 20s to blame it on. This alone is the singular most terrifying thought.
I’m picturing the meme of that cartoon dog sat in a room full of fire while drinking a cup of tea. The fire is the existential crisis and his calm demeanour is basically all of us trying to make it through the day without having a nervous breakdown.
*Cue Hello Darkness, my old friend*.
No seriously and honestly, I am actually really excited to be another year older. I’ve said this a lot in the last couple of months and maybe it’s because it’s something I am really and truly recognising for the first time in my life, but I am blessed to be here. Some of us didn’t make it, and that hurts my heart. I don’t know why, but I know I’m here and I know the best way to honour those who are no longer with us, is to live well and fully.
This time last year I actually had a pretty great birthday. I had just come back from Disney, I felt calm cool and collected. I was feeling grown and pretty much ready to take on the world. Then the last thing I am happened, happened. I was not cool or calm or collected and actually 90% of the time I felt incredibly overwhelmed.
Yep, tour life will do that for you.
I found myself annoyed and ashamed. I was so ready to be on top of everything and feeling good and dispelling bad energy and closer to God and super holy and wholesome and here I was honestly feeling the complete opposite. I had failed. I was a failure. Thus began the conversational negative tone that tended to flit in and out of my days for the rest of my birthday year.
It just wasn’t right. It wasn’t what I wanted. So I took the steps I needed to do to address it.
Now with the wisdom and experience of another blessed year and reaching out to improve my emotional, mental, physical and spiritual health, I find myself in a very different place.
I find myself in a place in which I have no expectations AT ALL.
I’ve got this terrible habit of raising the bar higher and higher for myself, but the problem is I tend to be too short to reach. I get a crick in my neck looking up for the bar I think I should be reaching for in order to do several pull ups, instead of looking a bit closer to home and practising my technique before I even attempt a pull up at all.
Now today, at 29, I don’t expect anything not because I do not want for anything but because it’s but because doing my best is important than trying to be a perfect idea of myself.
Being me right now, good and bad and embracing where I am at and the growth of my journey is better than trying to pretend that I am perfected right now.
I am imperfectly perfect. Working on myself. Growing. Prayerfully getting older and I am grateful for the whole experience.
So this is 29 guys.
A fine wine because it has a bunch of different flavours, accents and it will only get better over time.
