#Doodles#Original#Solitaire#12 names: Side A#I don't think I've even mentioned that the Kings have last names have I lol#They do! But more importantly they all have nicknames for each other!#At least two but usually three or four! :D#And mostly in their own languages - although Stellat (Diamond) is the closest to a polyglot so there's that#He's replying to Adel (Heart) in Italian which is his first language#But there'll be a bit more on his turns hehe ♪#Until then!#Adel and Nakamura (Club) are very close so Adel tends towards calling him endearments even in public which flusters him haha#Adel doesn't get a second nickname for Nakamura 'cause he'd mostly just be repeating himself#Basically all of his affectionate nicknames are along the lines of ''My strength'' or ''My pillar''#And he wouldn't just call him ''Friend'' when he's being so open ah ♥#Which btw his openness is by rather than calling him ''Heart'' (but not kokoro lol) he calls him something closer to ''Soul''#Essence of life/lifeblood - that kind of meaning ♪#Adel is referring to Stellat as a ''Snugglebear'' which is possibly the cutest German term out there lol#Although when he's mad at him he'll refer to him as ''Ruby'' which are less valuable than Diamonds so - insults lol#Stellat takes it in stride and picks back with ''Droplet'' - not even close to a full heart! Just a single drop of blood in him! Meanie ♪#Both of them diminuative just to be rude lol#And then the most love-hate of all the Kings haha - publicly those two Hate each other and are not shy about expressing it#Adel is calling him ''Wrong'' but specifically ''Upside-down'' since his symbol looks a bit like an inverted heart#And Noirceur (Spade) is returning with ''Bloodthirsty'' which is probably one of his more tempered responses honestly lol#Still rude tho lol#And then privately Adel will call him ''Beautiful'' (though he reserves a similar title just for his wife)#And Noirceur will call him just ''Heart'' - they're actually both saps but hate being vulnerable with each other lol#Adel is more comfortable thus the slightly more affectionate nickname but in his own mind even Noirceur can be cute with him haha

✨Pt. 2-The Reveal✨
(This post is directly following the previous one on this blog)
Well, it’s finally time to answer the question as to who my S.pongeB.ob S/I is dating. I did also mention this was going to be a gush post, and that might run long. So, without further ado, here they are:
“Yep, that’s him!” I say, with my face equally as red. Mr. Eugene H. Krabs. This is a crush spanning multiple decades at this point. I wanna kiss this man so bad it makes me look stupid.
Disclaimer: This next part will be discussing the Early Era version of Mr. Krabs. A more concrete reference would be between S2 to around S4/S5. No flanderization, no real canon interference to be had.
~Gushing Ahoy!~
Eugene is many things. Stingy. Red. A silver fox. A decorated and respected military man. But the best thing about him by far is how strong a characterization he has in the early seasons. Gruff, stubborn, clever, dedicated father and father figure to P.earl and S.pongeB.ob respectively. There are moments where he can be less than ideal, but nothing egregious. Plus, he’s voiced by C.lancy B.rown, a well-seasoned actor both on screen and behind the microphone.
As for physical traits? Again, his voice immediately comes to mind. The range alone is impressive! Eugene can go from a high-pitched panic to a low, deep rumble at the drop of a hat, and it’s so GOOD.💕💕💕 I know the ‘MOAR’ scene is a meme now, but there’s one shot where he’s lying on a table like a pinup model and I just-mmmmmm 🫣👀 And he seems like such a huggable shape too! Nice and round, perfect for Selene to wrap her arms around. 🥰🥰🥰 Not to mention strong! He did kick major tail at the Fry Cook Games and can manage to flip the entire Krusty Krab around in one swift move.
The impact Eugene has had on my life is very significant. His quotes are the ones I parrot the most out of any other SB character! I was over the moon when Cosmic Shake came out and heard him speak, which more than made up for BFBB: Rehydrated. AND they gave him funny lines?! A++, 10/10, 5 stars out of 5!
In summary, Mr. K.rabs (within certain parameters) is a sweet, caring, persevering entrepreneur/father/mentor and very handsome to boot. Selene definitely thinks the world of him and loves him immensely. ❤️
#Thank you all for your patience!#Hope the payoff is satisfying enough 😊#And ty for all the likes/compliments#It means a lot that people were interested in this!#The next post will most likely be more info on Selene herself#Until then!

My Top Ten Lists, and GOTY awards for 2022!
As typical I paid no attention to release date or year, only using the condition of 'did I finish this game this year', and judgeing games both as best I could both on how much I liked them, and how successful they where at being the game they where trying to be. I also didn't count any of my 'forever games' i.e games that I play more or less regularly year-to-year, such as FFXIV, and the Sims.
Also, blanket spoiler warning. (I don't get to deep into anything, but their are some references that might spoiler elements of some the plot heavier games).
10) Monster Prom
I played fewer games on average this year then I did in years past (only 12), which maybe explains the place of Monster Prom in the tenth spot. Not that it's a bad game: it's incredibly fun, queer, and wild ride, with a surprising amount to say about growing up, and that time in your life when your wild and unafraid and free.
That said though, it is a multiplayer game that I only ever played in single player, and it only hooked me long enough to get the Oz/Damon ending before I put it down and left it down for the remainder of the year. If I had managed to get one more in under the wire, before year's end, it would probably would have gone in this spot (unless said hyopthethical game was a real stinker, but I very rarely finish real stinkers).
9) Crusader Kings 3: Royal Court/Fate of Iberia
Man does this expansion rule. Crusader Kings in general still rules, and I've played a truly sickening amount CK3 just in general. Normally I would count CK3 as one of my 'forever' games, that I play non stop, but I actually have found myself playing CK3 in fits and starts recently: huge bursts when new DLC drops, and when I get a history hankering, but otherwise not very often.
That said the time I do spend with it rocks. I have made so many attempts at unifying the Iberian Peninsula at this point, some successful, some far less so. And I love seeing my monarch in his court, projecting power and presiding over the realm. Both Royal Court and Fate of Iberia fit perfectly into my gameplay, and their exact kinda of DLC I love from Paradox: the kinda that once experienced I can't imagine the game without.
I also really want to give a huge shout out for the amount of customization regarding gender, sexuality, and historical accuracy the game added this year. It's a small thing, but it made my brain so incredibly happy to see my character with his husband seated beside him, together presiding over the realm. (Until said husband unexpectedly inherited the Duchy of Aquitaine and had to tragically leave my court, causing my king to succumb to whore mongering and lechery to soothe his broken heart, which was Very Sad and also exactly the kind of shit I live for in this game).
8) Marvel Snap (Best Multiplayer)
This one was a real surprise. I don't play card games, I don't play mobile card games, and I've been fairly sour on Marvel for a while now.
And yet.
Man is Marvel Snap good. Addiction good. Possibly going to be a forever game next year good. Barely spend money on it and yet still enjoy it a mind numbing amount good. Time will tell on this one, but given the sheer number of hours I've put into it, the sheer joy I get from it despite normally hating games like this and how excellently designed it is, it's very much earned this spot.
7) Cult of the Lamb
This one was also a surprise for me, but less so in that it was out of genre, and more that I didn't know this game existed until after it had dropped and everyone on various podcasts I follow was listening to it. Their is something so delightful about both it's creepy cute aesthetic, and it's game play which is a mix of rouge like action and Animal Crossing villager management which makes it unique, memorable, and fun.
My biggest problem is really the combat. The lack of ability to pick weapons ahead of crusades, the way action can get very finicky and jumpy even in boss fights attacks hitting that shouldn't, and not hitting that should, is what kept this from beating out Elden Ring. On the Cult management side, while I really enjoyed all the effort and thought put into what it would take to actually run and keep a cult following, and the way you could pick doctrines of faith....I ultimately don't know that their was enough 'flavor' to make each cult feel really unique and customizable, and that held it back, if only a little. I'll probably dip back in to the update next year, when I have more time.
6) Elden Ring
Put down those pitchforks this instant.
Look. I really liked Elden Ring. It's a great game! Well constructed from start to finish, with a killer aesthetic, and a story that's even for Fromsoftwear, marginally understandable. It's open world is good enough that I, who generally hate open world games, can appreciate both it's beauty, and it's scope. It's also one of the few games that really, truly made me feel like I was an adventuring mage, wandering about in search of ancient secrets of magic.
But.
It's still not a very good Soulslike. It's combat is arbitrary and unfair in a way Demon's Souls and Bloodborne's where not (hell that Fallen Order and SoP's where not!), only the legacy dungeons really have the murderous puzzle box feel, and many of the bosses break the mold of Souls bosses up to this point, and not in a good way.
Their is a version of this game on another timeline that is NOT an Open World and so is much higher on this list. But alas, we live in the Open World Timeline, where giant empty games lacking in structure and narrative are the dominant force in games, and where good games will be diminished by having open world forced into them when they don't need it. So in the back half of my list, Elden Ring will remain.
5) Potion Permit
Oh MAN was this game good.
Every loving detail in this game was delightful: from the way the entire town starts out hating your guts, to the actual effort that goes into collecting ingredients and mixing potions, to the way you slowly build up trust and affection not just by handing out gifts, but by showing you can do your job in all it's aspects: making your patients feel heard, their care feel personal, and the actual healing timely.
Also the carpenter man was cute, and dating him was amazing.
I hope this trend of Stardew Valley like games that explore non-farming elements continues. And I hope it is full of many kissable men.
4) Omori (Best Art Direction)
Omori is a game I've been meaning to play for basically forever, but that I kept waiting for the Switch version to enjoy. And I am very happy with that choice.
This game is SO incredibly good. The sad narrative of a boy who flees into a dreamworld called Headspace in order to escape his loneliness and trauma, it's full of poignant messages about repression, self hatred, isolation, and ultimately forgiveness.
The truly crazy part is that their are two games here. The wacky charming Headspace adventurers which have all the classic trappings of JRPG: leveling up, turn based combat, exploration around madcap world full of bizarre colorful characters and off beat humor. And then you have the softer more realistic adventure game, drenched in Americana, from the same-y suburbs to the quirky pizza place, to the sprawling mega mart, where most of your time is spent not fighting but solving puzzles, and talking to characters to learn their weird stuff.
And when the two intersect, real world crashing into fantasy? That's where you get the game's tripy, mind fuck psychological horror. Omori shines brightest in Dark Space, when it delves into the twisted flip side of escapism, and digs under the skin of it's protagonist to show off his messy fears and his hidden darkness.
This game hit home, and it hit home hard.
3) Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes (Best Soundtrack)
As we get into my top three, we are entering the set of games that came out this year that seemed made for Me Specifically.
Of those Three Hopes was the biggest surprise. I never really imagine a....well whatever Three Hopes is to Three Houses (sequel? alternate universe story? retelling? spinoff? let's go with spinoff). Especially not a Musou style army shredder. And yet now I can't imagine playing either the fandom or the story itself without the added layer of context and story provided by Three Hopes.
Three Hopes adds so much content is the thing, you can actually feel the cuts from Three Houses that where re-worked here (Ferdinand and Ashe's extra scenes and supports in particular), and it adds so much depth too, to Byleth, to the world, to the dynamics between characters and factions. Their is an element of shinny wish fulfillment to it, and yet I can't fault the game for that. Afterall, they paid their dues to tragedy, and the costs and downsides of war in the first game. Here, things work out, and the headsman is escaped. The Lord of your choosing reshapes the world to their ideal, and everything works out, and the writing is so good that I don't really mind.
Also the OST slaps SO FUCKING HARD. They could have just repackaged the 3 Houses ost and I am SO GLAD that they did not. Still humming songs from this even months later.
2) Stranger of Paradise (Best Gameplay)
Stranger of Paradise was announced to loud mockery by basically everyone, and intense anticipation by me. I stood by the game's potential then, and I stand by it now.
This is such a smart game, and also such an earnest one. It knows exactly what it is and refuses to be ashamed of that. Instead it leans full body into it's buck wild story, it's over the top combat, and it's dark aesthetic. And the result is a weird alchemy that is incredibly fun to play, moment to moment.
If, like me, you have what amounts to a Master's Degree in obscure Final Fantasy lore, you will be delighted by both the subtle references peppered throughout the levels, and the deeper story, about the clash between the Lufenian's, god-like beings of near total power that they are, and the Strangers, defectors who have learned to love and see value in the world they where sent to control.
If you don't....then I recommend just sitting back and enjoying watching the monsters explode into bloody crystal. You will still have a rocking good time. Unless you think cringe in a real thing, then you might have less of a fun time.
1) Triangle Strategy (GOTY/Best Narrative)
Back near the beginning of the year, when I got Triangle Strategy's Golden Ending, after getting the other three, and clocking in more then a hundred and thirty hours in the game, I cried. The game's ending felt pitch perfect, the smooth flawless landing after seamless ride. I came out of the experience with a clear front runner for my personal GOTY, something that held up for most of the year even I played other really good games.
But as we closed on the tale end of the year I started to doubt my own impression, wondering if Triangle Strategy really had left that large of a mark on me, or if I had just been caught up in the hype cycle and recency bias.
And the trailer for the steam version came out and I started crying just from that so no. Not recency bias or hype.
Triangle Strategy is so incredibly good. Everything it attempts it scores a perfect ten on: it's characters are engaging and fun while still having depth and nuance, complexity and foibles. It's visual design is stunning and eye catching. It's combat and tatical elements are challenging puzzles, requiring careful planning and mastery of the game's systems.
But most of all it's story is flawless.
This game has so much to say about how our beliefs define us, and shape our world views. About the struggle for a future, and the difference been compromise and concession. About oppression, and faith, justice and law, the burden of leadership, and the power of conviction. It's exactly the story of high fantasy I love: mixing politics and magic, war and mythology, but keeping itself always centered on the human element of it's characters and their stories.
It is very, very close to a perfect game, and it makes me incredibly excited to see Octopath Traveler 2 next year.
#Triangle Strategy#Stranger of Paradise#final fantasy origin#fire emblem warriors 3 hopes#few3h#fe3h#Fire Emblem Three Houses#Omori#Potion Permit#Elden Ring#Cult of the Lamb#Marvel Snap#Crusader Kings 3#CK3#Monster Prom#that's all for this year folks!#next year is shapeing up to be Just As Wild#I hope I can play more games next year maybe burn through my backlog a bit#Until then!

you tell a bitch to keep their cat indoors and suddenly their town is the first in the world to have eradicated every viral, bacterial and parasitic disease, they invented completely harmless cars, dogs and predators dont exist either but somehow the native songbird population is fine since the cats in this place have lost the hunting instinct, there's no pollutants or toxic plants and human cruelty has ceased to exist. and mr mittens has a chip in his brain that will explode if he doesnt go outside 10 hours of the day
#these cunts are so fucking unaware and ignorant its hilarious (derogatory)#until they find their cat turned into a doormat in the middle of the road#shortext

Everyone is so weird about people who cry easily. Fellas, is it evil and manipulative to *checks notes* have an involuntary stress response?
#yeah you can critique people who eg post crying apology videos#because they could have waited until they'd calmed down#but if someone is in a stressful situation and they cry about it#all that tells you is that they cry in stressful situations#a fact which is completely morally neutral

got told at lunch "you feel like Tumblr Incarnate" and i had to tell them i've been here for 13 years and counting. i was here three years before dashcon happened. i saw the mishapocalypse. i survived the gigapause. i've been here longer than the shoelaces post. i've been here since it was hipsters versus fandom and i played both sides extensively by overdoing the sepia filters on everything and making my own flashing galaxy gif edits for my fandom posts. i'm every tumblr. it's all in me
#i've been on this site longer than mash was on the air and I WILL NOT LEAVE UNTIL IT IS A SMOLDERING 404 PAGE#shebbz shoutz

Thinking about him (the soldier in Poynter’s Faithful Until Death painting watching an apocalypse unfold around him with horror in his eyes as he tries to keep himself standing beneath a doorway, based on an actual 19th century archeological find of a man in full soldier’s garb under a doorway at Pompeii)
#edward poynter#art#faithful until death#Pompeii#Do I think this man was actually ~standing guard until death~? unlikely. he probably just succumbed to the smoke early#do i think this is a devastating representation of the actual last moments of thousands of people? absolutely#it’s such a good painting

white americans when you tell them that the idea of climate change as an impending disaster is a reductive first world perspective because it’s a tangible reality for many in the global south already:
#climate change#im TIRED#and i’m saying this as someone who also lives in the US.#im glad that none of you have to worry about your family and friends in other countries dying because of the heat#but this idea that “oh we have to stop it before we reach the extreme” is SO STUPID#because it’s already reached the extreme in some places!!#people are dying in south asia. people are dying in southeast asia. people are dying in africa. people are dying in central america.#people are dying in south america. people are dying in island nations.#what will it take you to care about these people#or will you not care until it’s people who look like you who are dying.
