Saw that omake with the homunculi asking Ed and Al for money again and was prompted to wonder if Father has money. He secretly ruled a nation for 400 years and probably did not have to pay rent, was he accumulating wealth the whole time? I assume Wrath at least got paid. How do Amestrian inheritance laws work? Joke-but-not-entirely-joke FMA epilogue where Ed and Al end up in probate court with Selim due to being Father's sole surviving relatives.

Alrighty, that settles it. From here on out, I pick only Big Man and Frye until one of them wins. Someone has to knock down that tyrant off her throne.

Probably will draw variants of that meme I drew every time until it happens.

I don't know if that last post is ok to reblog but literally SAMEE... 1 he's our headmate (our Gregory is like Ten as well. so younger still) and 2 He's Like Twelve and 90% of the stuff ppl accuse him of is just a twisting of canon that paints everything out to kill him as the victims and just makes me SO angry. I feel you Cross

first yes its okay to reblog dw!!

second FUCKING EXACTLY !!!!!! like not only are at least two of the animatronics shattering HARDLY HIS FAULT (chica is the only one who had to be tricked - monty and roxy put themselves in danger! fuck, even chica should know not to go into A TRASH COMPACTOR. she did anyways, but still!!), but also HE HAD NO REASON TO BELIEVE THEY WOULDNT FIX THEIR STARS. WHY WOULD THEY NOT REPAIR THE ANIMATRONICS?? THATS FUCKING STUPID!! WHY WOULD HE THINK THEY WOULDNT REPAIR THEM!!!!!!

do i think security breach has a shittily done plot among other things? absolutely. do i also think that if you hate gregory after security breach, you lack critical thinking skills? ALSO YES. FUCK YOU.

if you dislike gregory, thats fair, whatever. hating him? HES A CHILD. i would bet actual money that if you asked the animatronics (while in their right mind) if they would rather they die or gregory dies, they would choose to die in his place.

One Piece at the start: Lets go an a fun adventure to find a famous treasure :D

One Piece now: WE MUST KILL AND DETHRONE GOD, VIVA LA REVOLUCION!!! (were still finding that famous treasure though)

This is the story of a man named– wait… you’re not Stanley! And this isn’t–

Hmmm. Well, this is awkward. Wouldn’t you know about a man named Stanley? Works in an office, likes to push buttons– No?

Oh, well, while this isn’t my usual script, it does seem that there is a story to be found here. Isn’t that nice? Oh, and would you look at that– It seems like you’re the hero of it! How fun!

OK, let’s see–

You’re on a path in the woods. And at the ending of that path is a cabin. And in the basement of that cabin is a princess.

You’re here to slay her. If you don’t, it’ll be the end of the world.

Oooohh, concise, but immediately intriguing. With a nice twist of expected roles. I like it!

Viva la revolucion!

Perhaps I'll take some screenshots of Oppo dialogue and flesh my thoughts out on this further later, but for now, get unedited paragraphs of my voice of the opportunist thoughts instead anyways, to me, Opportunist seems like someone who gets genuine joy out of Scheming, and Being Manipulative, even though he demonstrably is pretty bad at it. he's a reflection of a player who enjoys the act of betrayal, or taking advantage of situations-the kind of person like me who saw a funny like [Slay the Princess] prompt unexpected and went "well well well. let's see where this goes." It's an aspect he shares with the Cold-an interest in the Direction of events, and preferably them going Up because of his schemes, moreso than anything else. And, like Cold and Cheated, he is one of the more blatantly meta-voices that reflect a state of mind for a player rather than protagonist or person-I want to see what happens if I do [x], I want to try and "win" the visual novel. He sucks up to authority because, like other manipulative characters who I love and who are a lot better at being manipulative little shits, he's trying to integrate himself with those in-charge just so he can use them, or replace them. This is most obvious in Princess and the Dragon-one moment, he's eagerly talking about killing two birds with one stone, and even as he happily proclaims that you're back and he's not cut out for decision making so you should totally do it instead...he'll stab you and the princess IMMEDIATELY if you find yourself back in her body. Which is part of why I fucking love Princess and the Dragon! When the Opportunist is blatantly attempting to grab power nobody even has, he's a clown, nonthreatening. When he actually has it, and his companions are largely uninterested in stopping him...he recognizes that once you're in the body, you're in control, but that doesn't mean he won't try and prevent you from returning to it as to keep the power he has. Why fixate on power, then? On being at the metaphorical top? It's in part because, like all the voices, it's something of a survival mechanism-we died last time, we won't die if we [x]. We won't die if we actually succeed in outmaneuvering her this time, we won't die if we have more power than she can meaningfully resist. It doesn't work out for Oppy, in part because he generally believes he has more control than he actually does-his attempts at manipulating the situations he's in to His favor are so blatantly obvious and self-serving that it's completely ineffective.

And therein lies the rub with the Opportunist-he genuinely believes himself to be Good at what he does. He genuinely believes he Deserves to be at this Metaphorical Top where he rules everything and nobody can hurt him by tearing him apart with teeth and claws and such anymore. He genuinely believes that none of the people Actually at the top got there through virtues such as hard work, or their intelligence, or strength, but because life is full of shortcuts and they knew it, saw those shortcuts, and took them-and he admires that! His dialogue in Wraith and Princess and the Dragon sell that last point home to me-with the Wraith, he's in love with her drive, her ambition, and her willingness to do whatever it takes moreso than anything else about her, and will gladly submit himself to her since he's fully aware there's no winning. As Wraith says, this is only until he can stab her in the back again-she knows the kind of person he, and by extension, we as a player, are. In Princess and the Dragon, he outright states that everybody worth Something (<- including himself!) doesn't bother with "hard work" so much as the shortcuts! "work smarter, not harder" <- a phrase i so wish he said at some point because it fits him so well. He's also contrasted with the Narrator-the Narrator frequently has dialogue deriding the monarchy, of how seamstresses contribute more value than princesses, praising "Viva la revolucion!" with "that's the spirit!" and just generally reflecting overall leftist political beliefs.

Meanwhile Opportunist is giving lines straight from Linked-In-travelling makes him relatable, he wants a job, he can help with the management, a more capitalist, growth-mindset way of viewing a world that does not even Have politics by virtue of being Two People. And this ties back into the Shortcuts, Being at the Top, and truly, genuinely believing that's where he needs to be, and that he belongs there-the mindset of people who view themselves as temporarily embarrassed millionaires soon to hit the upper class if they just network well enough instead of taking a realistic look at their situation or the bigger picture. The Elon Musks of the world who did not earn their wealth, but reap the rewards again and again. That's the kind of man Opportunist wants to be-the kind who found their way into the upper eschalons of society without having to be anything remarkable at all. He thinks there's a top to get to, in this world that is just the fragmented pieces of You and Her. Meanwhile, there isn't even a constant, or a center.

Also people are saying that Cellbit discord discovered that the couch colors mean “Viva la Revolucion”!

[pinupcitizen]

I have a sudden impulse of behaving remarkably un-cool from now on.

Be cool.

Okay but, I feel like this CEO assassination has helped highlight just how short-sighted the whole "Viva La Revolucion!" crowd is.

Instead of solving all our problems like they've CONSTANTLY insisted a CEO getting shot would do, that CEO getting his brains blown out in broad daylight has just lead to a lot of short-term catharsis, followed by a crackdown on freedom of speech AND more draconian surveillance that'll last for years to come.

If ONLY they hadn't bended over backwards to justify not-voting and just did their civic duty so we wouldn't be in this mess in the first place!

Pretty much.
