foxboy has been forcibly made ambidextrous due to blueskittles' forgetfulness
all characters are ambidextrous when im writing them (< guy who doesnt know the difference between left and right)
#SEE THE THING IS SOMETIMES THE SWORD LOOKS BETTER ON THE OTHER SIDE COMPOSITIONALLY AND YOU JUST FORGET THAT THATS NOT HOW IT WORKS#and. and then sometimes. you are 100% convinced that what youve drawn is a sword in the left hand. but you are wrong#sigh. i need to stop writing about characters with swords. i cant keep doing this#theres an added layer of hilarity with vulpis (foxboy) in that i originally wanted him to be right handed and then immediately forgot that#after the first panel and started drawing him left handed. so now he's left handed bc he uses his left hand in all but the very first panel#it's way easier for me to keep it consistent with my mc (cottontail) because since the fight scenes are kinda from her pov her back is#usually to the camera. so i can just put the sword on the side that i am actively holding my pen while drawing#and you would THINK it would be easy to just. reverse that. with vulpis. but apparently fucking not#AND FOR SOME REASON THIS ONLY APPLIES TO CERTAIN THINGS?? like cottontail has an asymmetrical character design#with a big spot over the right side of her face. and i have NEVER ONCE fucked up and drawn it on the left. the sword tho? fair game. why#WHATEVER. it's fine im fine this doesn't eat me up inside. i am fine with being perpetually unable to understand simple directions#asks

I'm going to make you obsessed with evil video game men
#someone help i cannot escape the grasp of the Fucked Up Evil White Boys From Video Games I Don't Even Play#(the Fucked Up Evil White Boys include: Strade BTD. William Afton (that was a low point). Phillip Graves. Albert Wesker.)#why am i like this#me to my friends: guys i have a new fictional crush#friends: is it another evil mid white guy#me: uhhhhh.....#to be fair i have good taste in fictional WOMEN.#read the tags#granted the women i like also have moral questionableness. ventress my evil wife >>>#actually strade is only questionably white like he's german but he's often portrayed as kind of racially ambiguous so who knows

People act like when you criticize Mojang for literally any questionable game design choice you're personal walking up to some small indie company and slapping them in the face
Minecraft is one of the most popular games of all time, and is owned by Microsoft. They are not some tiny indie developer. People are allowed to be mad at the mob vote and all the wasted potential
#Minecraft#everyday i wake up and am forced to look at strawman arguements#long as youre not actually harassing anyone critism is fair game#why do people act like youre not allowed to dislike their choices??

Genuinely, shit like this is why blame can't be solely put on EA's doorstep for how the game turned out

I've already seen people defend this as "he misspoke" and this is just not true. I was scared they would do this to Davrin as soon as I saw Assan and the hype about what a cute little critter he was... well, apparently he was given more care and thoughtful consideration than his caretaker.
#I am so mad#I hadn't read this section yet and I was making fun of the word salad answer abt the Evanuris and the dragons#but this... legitimately puts a bad taste in my mouth#just yikes#Games#DA:TV#Davrin#Veilguard spoilers#it's not even fair to Harding I don't think. why are we equating her worth to a Griffon#it's even worse to Davrin bc you know. only black companion and they treat his pet/ward better than him

sorry main blog complaint moment that actually isn't a big deal but sometimes there are some fandoms where im like why are we selfshipping/ocxcanon shipping from here where are we even getting yeah i gotta ship from here vibes. not that we can't you can do whatever you want and lord knows i probably have fandoms that make people cock their head but also why.
#i think bc of so much general discourse around the fandom+my general understanding of the game im like why so much m.out.hwashing shipping#< bc it's popular. but it's like well why. no i wont break long term mutuals over it but why. to be real im tired of seeing it#also to be fair the long term mutual thing is i am So Close some days bc im kind of Eugh over a particular thing but im like u have been#here with me too long even tho we dont interact outside of likes so i'd feel bad even if ur irritating me#sigh. alas. anyways not an actual real issue but i will Nawt talk about this on my main#so it goes here. APOLOGIES#static.soundz

Will never not be ironic to me that while many people want to romance the questionable videogame men* in our protagonists' heads, my relationships to them remain firmly
"Fuck off"
"Shut up"
And, last but not least,
"Get wrecked"
(when is it my turn to be happy suffering from angst)
#this post is for fun no actual hate to these characters okay??? don't piss on the poor#anyway my butches are tired. come back with a woman gamedevs#then I suspect I will gladly commit atrocities or sacrifice my life etc etc#datv spoilers#I am not tagging spoilers anymore but JUST IN CASE if this is still a spoiler for someone#the asterisk is there for the Emperor as per usual#altho as [redacted] I still count him as that#sigh you know one downside of how these games are doing sexuality is that it's impossible to put your foot down as a dyke.#Veilguard is okay 'cause nobody exactly flirts with you unless you show interest and Solas thankfully couldn't give less of a shit#about your love life#but Johnny and the Emperor...#guys you are in my fucking head you should KNOW me#Johnny why are you crudely accusing me of trying to jump River's dick#Emperor why are you-- okay you know what no that's fair he probably WOULD think that he got far enough into Tav's head#to be an exception or whatever#...see Johnny that's why you get the SHUT UP part.#edit: i think it's important to note that out of these three V and Johnny got along the best#not the highest relationship score no#but they're like annoying siblings in terms of dynamic by the end. sorta#unlike the other two where Tav and Rook had murder on their mind

Luci, we're seeing the light of wdc hope (ever) go out of charles' eyes and im so sad for him.
Future's bleak for him, i fear it's too late to switch teams by now.
Ordinarily I wouldn't answer this kind of ask. HOWEVER, this gives me the chance to use this as a platform to say that I actually do have a theory about a possible team swap that could happen for 2026/2027 that I don't think I have seen anyone else really talking about because there is a seat that I think is in more jeopardy than people realize and if I were wanting to switch teams I would be angling for it now.
I don't think Charles will swap teams, or that he even wants to, just to be clear. However I jsut wanted to point out that I think your assumption that it's over is wrong and also that there aren't going to be good seats(and ferrari to be clear is the best seat) is also wrong.
And Bleak????? It's one weekend, he isn't switching teams based on one weekend, and I don't think he wants to. Take a breath. You're going a little(a lot) far with this.
I know this is doomer bait but I wanted an excuse to put the tinfoil hat on
#not taking any more comments on the subject at this time#i have seriously not seen anyone talk about this seat#and in my opinion it could be fair game in 2026 and for sure in 2027#and I am being vague about the driver and team on purpose#people will call me crazy and I probably am tbh#some things are shaking up#a few convos I have noted#idk why ppl arent reporting on it#maybe I really have lost my mind#dont listen to me

No he's a good boy she's predisposed for evil lol#Gotta love those spiralling memory episodes :) Couldn't act right in the first place and then punished for all eternity thereafter what fun#Also hey! Two faces that haven't been around since they were first-ever-only drawn!

Before we call anon rude because let’s see it from their perspective, imagine getting an entire feast to eat. That can be pretty hard to start with so much that’s going on, but if they start with one thing they know they’ll like (aka one character they like) that can be the start for them leaping to other characters to finish the story and the bigger story. I struggle the same way to start book series if I don’t have at least one character that drives me to read it, it’s all about what can be the hook to push them through. Sounds like the anon is neurodivergent (just a guess) so they might genuinely not see it as rude and see it as a solution to even play the game to start with.
Btw absolutely adore the game, the complex and rich characters making them all so unique is amazing. The art is so pleasing to the eyes I love it!! I’m waiting for it all to get out at once so I don’t get too impatient. Shae however interests me the most, which routes will have the most lore for them? Will there be routes that give more lore in general based on decisions you make or do they all share the same amount? (I mean general lore not just Shae lore)
Apologies; we are not trying to accuse any asker of being rude! We are simply explaining our perspective as the developers / are trying to broadly encourage folks to dip their toes into other areas of the story outside of the main route(s) they're interested in, especially considering some routes will be made available sooner than others, and these other routes will likely contain additional scenes/lore of everyone's fave(s) regardless! We want to give each main cast member an equal amount of love (and lore) regardless of their overall popularity, so our goal is not to tut-tut anyone for having strong preferences for one character over the others, but rather to explain that you may be surprised by how much *more* you learn about your preferred characters in the other routes. That's all!
For Shae... Well, they were a foot soldier for one of the worst periods of the War. Lore wise, any other story that touches on the War will likely have content relevant to them and their experiences. ^^
#ask#clotho answers#edit/final note: we got a *few* asks on this subject and will not likely answer all of them for the sake of our followers' dashboards#but we also want to note that part of our encouragements here come from the fact that Flan/Keagan are our most popular characters by a lot#and we want to do what we can to gently nudge folks who may not want to romance the fem / nb characters into checking out their stories#despite not being into them romantically. this is half of why we have platonic routes to begin with#we recognize veterans to the dating sim world may feel less inclined to romance characters that don't align with their irl orientations#this isn't a bad thing. some people steer clear of dating sims altogether because they're aro or just not interested in romance stories etc#but the unintentional side effect of this is it has a chilling effect on developers even in the indie sphere to make less diverse stories#if Flan and Keagan are our most popular characters then they will be our most *profitable* characters in the long run#and as much as we would love to not care about money and just produce the story we want to tell#we live in a society (tm) and need to eat#if at the end of ndm's development we see that 90% of our engagement went toward the boys it is hard to ignore the financial incentive#to redirect our energy toward leaning into the 'tried and true' formula that assures we can buy groceries and make rent#basically what i am candidly saying here is capitalism is pretty bad for creative liberty unless you're already rich / able to self finance#which we are not. and currently none of the core devs make *anything* from ndm#it would be nice if it does turn a profit but that isn't a guarantee - which the team has accepted as a normal risk in game development#anyway this is getting rambly but the Point is that this goes beyond us wanting to make sure all sides of our story are equally appreciated#it is *partly* that - we do want players to experience the entirety of our artwork#but it's not just for our egos - it's so we can keep making art like this#i considered including this in the body of the post but money talk suuucks man#and i don't want anyone to think we're glaring at them in a holier than thou 'ah-ha! you don't want to play maeve's route because she's a#woman!' sort of way because i think that's a reductive way to look at things#people like what they like and there's nothing intrinsically wrong with that#but if you like that we're making a diverse story#with masc routes fem routes and nb routes#even if you don't personally want to romance x or y#it would help us if y'all play the platonic routes#we are trying our very very best to make the fem/nb routes interesting for Everyone so those stories don't get sidelined#and if you don't like them for their own sake - fair enough! can't win em all and we'll deeply appreciate that you tried anyway!

600 words added to my Wicked Game planning doc and you should all be worried lol
It's gonna take me at least two years and probably more to get there, given my current posting speed, but BE WORRIED
#out here developing plot points for the final climax of wicked game#which really is going to take me years to get to at this point#why am i always so longwinded#but also it is AMAZING how fleshing out a character and changing their alignment and motivations for additional internal conflict#can just make things fall into place#you should all be worried I have a job where I can easily run plot ideas and scenarios in the back of my head honestly#i have way too much mental time on my hands#but anyway#buckle in guys we're approaching the bumpy parts of the story#whenever i upload#to be fair#i want to try to move towards an update schedule of every month/ every other month#but now that i've said that i will absolutely be thwarted#we'll see how long it lasts though#my current goal is chapter 9 uploaded on November 1st#bowuigi#luigi#bowser#bowser x luigi#luigi x bowser#wicked game fic#wicked game

So I recall yesterday how one of my friends talked to someone else about my Takumi built. And I will find it funny (but also take it as a compliment) that this person said "My Takumi would be shitting his pants".
And you know what? Let me ramble about it out in the open too.

Picture taken from my Birthright Lunatic run
I will exclude DLC Skills but if you have access to them, there are two very useful ones for him (Skilltaker + Point Blank).
Anyways... The essentials I would run on Takumi all times is Death Blow, Tomebreaker and Rend Heaven. Preferably run a merged Killer Bow too while at it.
Death Blow gives Takumi a +20 crit during player phase. Tomebreaker is to compensate for Takumi's bad Resistance, giving him a better chance of survival against tome users (the units who will primarily wield magic). Rend Heaven is simply the best activation skill in Fates, adding half of the strength or magic stat (depending on if they wield a physical or magic weapon) of the target's stat to the damage dealt.
What helps is that all of these skills are easily accessable if you don't want to use the Unit Logbook. Takumi can get Rend Heaven by reclassing into a Basara. Tomebreaker can be obtained with an A+ support with Jakob or an S-Support with Felicia. Of course an S-Support with Corrin (f) gives him access to one of these classes too if you set one of those as the secondary class for her. In any case, you should be able to quickly get those skills in one run, maximum two.
Edit: I made a mistake earlier. Death Blow is learned by Oni Chieftains which would require Takumi to S-Support Rinkah for access. It isn't impossible but my bad. An A+ Support with Ryoma or Hinata would give Takumi Vantage (At start of combat, if HP=50% or less, always strike first, even when attacked), Duelist Blow (Grants Avo+30 when the unit initiates combat) & Astra (Strike five times at half damage. Trigger % = (Skill stat × 0.5)). This all would be still useful for him of course, especially Duelist Blow against tome users in combination with Tomebreaker. I mistook the blow skills here, my bad.
I think the other two skills are flexible. Certain Blow can help his accuracy of course so it might be useful. As for Vengeance... I constantly switch between that, Lethality (honestly because I want to) or Astra. If you want a budget built you can achieve in one run Astra would be the way to go.
You can adjust it to preference of course. I prefer using activation skills mostly hence why he has two of them. You could also use Air Superiority as a passive to give Takumi even more effectiveness against fliers (Hit rate and Avoid +30 when facing Flying enemies). If you want to be a bit risky, you can also use Quixotic as a passive to make him even more deadly but at a cost (User and enemy's Hit rate +30 and skill activation rate +15 during battle).
Heck, if you play Revelation and A+ Support him with Leo you can teach and run Takumi with Life Taker (Restores 50% of the user's HP).
It is pretty easy to make Takumi useable without much effort in one run. There's probably more I've missed, given the amount of S-Supports available and Corrin customization. But even without Corrin customization you can easily build him skill wise and make him even more viable. If you bother grinding to build units then there's certainly quite a few options there. It mainly depends on how you prefer using units and Takumi is very versatile, in my opinion. Certainly why it also makes him one of the best units gameplay wise.
#Testimonial Evidence#Pineapple Sniper#I am very normal about Fire Emblem. Especially the 3DS games.#If interested I could work on builds and see what I recommend for each unit. It's actually lots of fun for me to do.#Just know that it takes some time as I haven't built every unit. Also how reclassing works in Fates it takes longer.#Awakening luckily isn't as tricky. But it is more limited outside of Robin & Morgan. I love building units in those games tho.#Heck if you play Awakening or Fates send me an ask and I will ramble about preferred builds and why!#Without DLC though to make it more fair. DLC Skills are rather strong after all... Especially in Awakening.#Also not everyone has the DLC so I want to keep this manageable.#fire emblem fates#fe15#fire emblem if#fire emblem takumi#fe takumi

I really should stop refreshing and scrolling and refreshing and scrolling, and go play my game. I'm so nervous about the prompt last night tho, bc no one's posted anything for it yet. I know obvs it takes time, but I've never done anything like this before so I just keep refreshing everything.
#bren tumbls#“You'll get a notification when they do it right?”#sure#if they tag me#if it's someone who just saw my prompt in the thursday bangers tag they might not#which is why I'm also following the tag now#but nothing's been posted to it and like I said#I'm nervous about it#and I wasn't yesterday but now I'm really second guessing it#to be fair I should be following the tag anyway even without me having posted a prompt#bc I love the game and it's the easiest way to be notified if and when a new prompt is posted#but that's not why I actually AM following it#I'm anxious about it
