developing post-pilot qpr nuzi living in my brain Always this week it seems. post-pilot uzi coming to the equally comedic and horrifying realization that she could point her new monster bestie at anyone and he’d go ‘okie dokie! :D’ and then kill/eat them (because if canon is gonna dog-code the biomechanical nightmarebot im gonna take that and RUN with it).

The aforementioned flying teenage people-eater is eager and wants to be a good person So Bad but the person he’s mirroring his moral compass off of while he reorients his own moral compass- which is suffering from ‘natural predator of Worker Drone people and also memory banks is scrambled egg’- is perhaps the planet’s most deranged teenage girl. why are they so hilarious. for what reason.

Another video game has emotionally devastated me? Of course

I finished Banishers: Ghost of New Eden last night and it was a rough one. I was fully prepared for my feelings to get all over everything but that didn’t stop it from hurting! It was a really great story. I’m already looking forward to another play through to wrap up a couple achievements and get another ending. Highly recommend playing!

Hrmm... Revising my game and I feel like there's still sooo much writing left to do, for something that probably won't even amount to much, so.. I do want to narrow my focus more (especially given my health problems seeming to get worse/less energy the past few years), but I'm not sure how would be best to...

I currently have 5 characters as the Main ones with full planned questlines and such, with each character having 6 quests you can do for them. But I haven't really started the writing for the 5th main character. So then I was thinking, if I were going to write 6 full quests worth of content anyway... is it better to allocate that time on just doing a Complete 6 Quests for ONE single character, OR would it be better to do something like.. choose THREE side characters and do 2 quests for each of them? So that people have a wider variety to interact with and sort of sample around (of course with the idea that, once the first version of the game is released, IF people actually care about it enough to make it worth the effort, I would then add additional content to complete those 3 characters stories as well)

-

SO... If you were playing an interactive fiction sort of game centered around talking to & doing quests for a cast of characters (like there's no larger plot, more it's just about interacting with people, every character kind of has a self contained story, the focus is just learning about them and the world and exploring the area) --- Which would you rather have?

(and of course it would be stated up front which characters have only partial questlines, so people don't expect them to have full quests like the others and then get disappointed, or etc. etc.)

Basically, is it better to just focus in specifically on having one fully complete questline? Or for there to be a few stories that are not complete yet, but have more initial options available?

his body interacting with the waking world differently now due to his possession and connection to the fade. it being the reason for why he has no reflection and a sensitivity to the sun and silver, specifically. holy water burning as well. how he can walk silently even in full armor. how he can cross distances in a short time like cole ( teleport, basically ). his body feeling heavier than it actually is ( something something two entities residing in one body something something ).

Afterward, King Viserys tried to make a peace, requiring each of the boys to tender a formal apology to his rivals on the other side, but these courtesies did not appease their mothers. Queen Alicent demanded that one of Lucerys’s eyes be put out for the eye he had cost Aemond.

I know the focus is (understandably) on Aemond and Luke, but what about the other boys? Three-year-olds bruise easily, and Jace should be black and blue all over, but somehow no one minds them?

There are three badly beaten children, and Alicent insists on mutilating one of them further, even though they visibly had a pretty good reason to defend themselves?

Rhaenyra would have none of that, but insisted that Prince Aemond should be questioned “sharply” until he revealed where he had heard her sons called “Strongs.” To so name them, of course, was tantamount to saying they were bastards, with no rights of succession … and that she herself was guilty of high treason.

I've seen people arguing Rhaenyra means to torture Aemond. Being "questioned sharply" suggests that, but let's be realistic- he's the ruling King's son. Considering Viserys' personality she wouldn't expect more than stern talking-to. And it's not like that would change her step-borthers' minds, I'd guess it's more about making another statement.

To re-assure Rhaenyra of her and her children's position that was questioned by such prevailing rumours. Position that certainly wasn't cemented by her forced re-location to Dragonstone. Viserys half-succeeds in that, as is his custom.

When pressed by the king, Prince Aemond said it was his brother Aegon who had told him they were Strongs, and Prince Aegon said only, “Everyone knows. Just look at them.” King Viserys finally put an end to the questioning, declaring he would hear no more. No eyes would be put out, he decreed … but should anyone—“man or woman or child, noble or common or royal”—mock his grandsons as “Strongs” again, their tongues would be pulled out with hot pincers.

Good job, no one will say anything... out loud... in his earshot...

His Grace further commanded his wife and daughter to kiss and exchange vows of love and affection, but their false smiles and empty words deceived no one but the king. ... To prevent further conflict, and put an end to these “vile rumors and base calumnies,” King Viserys further decreed that Queen Alicent and her sons would return with him to court, whilst Princess Rhaenyra confined herself to Dragonstone with her sons. Henceforth Ser Erryk Cargyll of the Kingsguard would serve as her sworn shield, whilst Breakbones returned to Harrenhal.

... but Viserys failed to support Rhaenyra resolutely, by keeping Alicent in capitol, fully aware it means Nyra won't follow there. An indisputable Heir should be a part of everyday working of government. Just look at how many served as the Hand! He even considers that particular option later, so on some level he has to understand that:

The governance of the realm was a daunting task; the king needed a strong, capable Hand to shoulder some of his burdens. Briefly he considered sending for Princess Rhaenyra. Who better to rule with him than the daughter he meant to succeed him on the Iron Throne? But that would have meant bringing the princess and her sons back to King’s Landing, where more conflict with the queen and her own brood would have been inevitable.

Historians agree the seeds of The Dance were sown when Aemond lost an eye, I'll add Rhaenyra- although unaware- asked her father to stop it. She wanted him to stand by her once and for all, when the hatred for her and hers caused the first unnecesary bloodshed.

@dnangelic cont from x

he is touching her crown and she finds her breath catching in her throat for a moment. so many of the world of light had dared take relics of her line in hand before and none of them could handle the dark power for themselves. so many corrupted souls just from a fragment yet-- he seemed unaffected. her eyes are focused intensely upon his hands; waiting for any sign that she must step in for his own sake. but Twilia recognizes its own -- and the twilight will not corrupt what is already apart of it.

" eehee, you really do have a good eye then. " she responds with a slight giggle though she is hardly won over by such simple words. of course she was beautiful; she was the result of her realm and her realm was spectacular to those who knew how to see it. " but -- I thought you knew nothing? if you know my title, then you clearly know something. " a playful taunt; a test of wit to match his charm. " but... it is technically part of my duties to entertain guests to the palace. and royal duties can be quite dull if no new opportunities present themselves. "

sunset eyes meet with flawless ruby as he sets the fused shadow down upon it's pedestal once more. the tension not quite leaving but her shoulders do lower as her grin grows. " what you were holding is a relic that belonged to the first people of Twilia. a weapon created to help the royal family tap into their truest power and connect with the realm itself. it is quite dangerous to those outside the royal family... as are quite a few of the items in here. the last time that particular helm was used was when the true ruler of the realm defeated her usurper and his false god.
