hey like I know narrative convenience etc but also like. wenjing glows when there's blood on it, yeah?

Li Lianhua carries that sword for a decade. up his...sleeve? I guess?? just. on him, all the time presumably, because it's the last link he has to his shixiong and also because like. defence weapon. and also also sword he needs to keep hidden and probably can't just leave lying around like he does di feisheng's disco boxer armour scraps, because a sword is kinda less easy to explain as 'haha yeah I just found it and decided to keep it for. reasons?' than 'oh my thrifted jianghu scrap of don't get burnt cooking material is actually valuable? weird! anyway want some inedible soup'

Li Lianhua also, presumably, spends a decade coughing up blood on the regular, because of the whole dying slowly and horribly of poison thing. I'd guess he's coughing up blood probably less at the start/middle of the decade, but like, he's visibly used to just horking up an internal organs worth of blood and then continuing on his way as best he can, so. one assumes the blood spitting is not a new thing.

so like. how often over the literal decade he's carrying the sword that glows when exposed to blood and also regularly exposing it to blood is Li lianhua like hurkcoughbleh and then has to be like please ignore my glowing arm, it's....a medical condition that is extremely normal and not worth talking about, that will be five taels take your treatment and please fuck off

realized a drawing i'm doing rn is almost identically posed to one i did 8.5 years ago of a different oc, except the old drawing was instantly tainted by one of the players featured messaging me asking if i could take it down because their abusive, possessive rp partner saw it and got jealous of them "roleplaying behind their back" and i said "nah" and it became a whole Thing that i should have walked away from at that exact moment but didn't and the 6 months that followed contained some of the most truly condensed batshit i have ever witnessed in an rp community already well-known for its batshittery.

... anyway i love my friends. so happy to accidentally redeem the pose.

My favorite loopchat is definitely "did you know your eyes are two different shades?" but tbh i haven't stopped thinking abt the one where siffrin asks if loop is a star and they say some shit like "I'm more like a mirror. It'd be boring to be the real thing" ever since i finished the game w twohats

Like loop's favorite activities are being vague as fuck and foreshadowing. So it's entirely possible that loop starts saying star to mean like. Actor (star of the show, the star of a play and stuff like that). And they just like. Answered that at least half honestly just bc siffrin would be like "? What are you blinding talking about" and the true meaning would fly over his head bc he's still thinking about stars (celestial bodies). + it would add to a lot of stuff loop says to you not really being lies like you might think on a first impression

if i see any more Chloe hate i’m going to fucking explode. i’m not even kidding this makes me physically ill i’m going to create a fucking uQuiz about Chloe Price’s character and if you get a bad score you officially do not understand her character and has no right to talk about her whatsoever because you cannot just……say shit like « yeah duh of course i chose Arcadia Bay over her she was so dramatic and annoying and so mean omg 🙄🙄🙄 » i’m coming for you. like you can chose Arcadia Bay it’s a choice based game but if you did it because ‘Chloe was such a meanie 😓’ OH MY GOD. i’m. aidiaoisoz. can someone plz stop me i’m going to jump off a roof /j

i did think about richard siken saying there's no such thing as unrequited love, just unrequited desire for probably longer than i should've, but idk. feelings are complicated. 'unrequited' is complicated. i've never felt so consistently failed by language before...

[snzluv3r]

i actually feel so incredibly uncomfortable and isolated in this space right now and i know that’s silly because of how many people there are just like me who share the same feelings but idk…the fact that people even think this is defensible behavior is making me feel sick

The majority of the sex scenes in modern day Choices would be about 1000000x better if they just cut down on all the damn talking

episode 3 banquet of the golden witch finished episode 4 alliance of the golden let's gooooooooo

thoughts and confusion under the cut

the thing that bugs me is that i still don't know what to DO. as in idk how to go about this and idk what it is i have to 'solve'... folks talk as if there is a single (1) mystery canon i have to try and solve ???? my dear there are literally three different versions of events so far ???? still very unsure what this all adds up to... is this a case where there are 'truths' in every version... and i have to find them and add them as they come...? if that makes sense... every different boardgame is a closed universe where the "rules" and "truths" apply only to themselves? or no? what i'm saying is, for example, eva killed battler in ep. 3 so that is a "truth" that i should always take into consideration in the future or nah (is that even a truth? how can i know if it's a truth?)... literally 68.7% of everything that we see could be a lie. that is A Lot to deal with... i will repeat yet again that sometimes no one in particular is narrating the facts... how am i even supposed to take this. how important it is for me to go back and refresh my memory after finishing the questions arc...? how important it is for me to have established theories in my mind for the previous mysteries when i move to eps. 5-8...? cannot shake the feeling that i'm doing it all wroooooooong oooooooochdjbcsjabcjsdbcjsc losing my mind ok anyway:

these 👆🏻 are real questions btw i would love answers if possible and spoiler free

cannot BELIEVE that psychopath eva beatrice is still around... fuck that girl so much omg she is so punchable i would like to have regular eva who is already not very regular only pls and ty

when a person gets a boyfriend or girlfriend and immediately puts every last shred of their attention and time and effort solely into said boyfriend or girlfriend and absolutely nothing and no one else — that is actually one of the shittiest things a person can do

the funniest part of love lies bleeding was definitely when the lights came up afterwards and one of the young women in the row behind me turned around and immediately said to her date "i am SO sorry, i thought this was just a movie about.... gym lesbians"
