Hey Fukase, I was reading through of the posts featuring you and I gotta ask, where did your fancy manner of speech come from? :0 (also, my Fukase and Flower say hello (I'm working on making an ask-blog for them too.... maybe... ^^;;))

Thanks for the ask, @mysteria6 !

[brutal-nemesis]

Yee it’s a good time I’m sorry yours don’t 😔 And that’s a dope first game! Ours was Danger by Design

Ooh okay I LOVE Waverly and Thornton Hall! Silent Spy’s good too, but I think my other favs are Shadow at the Water’s Edge, White Wolf, Sea of Darkness, and Deadly Device.

I would die for Joe Hardy that is a fact

I DEFINITELY want tk talk. My sisters have long since stopped loving ND but inside I am still 9 years old devouring the books and being shocked when my dad brought home the first game. What did uou think of the latest game?

Hecc yeah baby! Big oof that your sisters aren’t into it anymore; both my brother and sister still play them and we talk about them all the time. We even had a Nancy Drew party with some of my friends a couple weeks ago where we just played through Shadow Ranch.

As for Midnight in Salem...it...was. I mean I didn’t hate it by any means, and it’s certainly better than Shattered Medallion or Ransom of the Seven Ships, but it just didn’t have that same charm. There were some good puzzles though! And playing as Frank and Joe is always a party. How about you?

It's a language, not a museum! Tear down the velvet ropes standing in the way of your wordmagination!

Yukina Freezis, probably.

kinda late but if you still want to do the nancy drew asks 10, 16, 17, 18, 20, 98, 117 & 119!

you spoil me :D dont ever stop please lol

10. Who’s your favorite reoccurring character (Carson Drew, Joe Hardy, Frank Hardy, Ned Nickerson, Bess Marvin, George Fayne, or Hannah Gruen)? Why?

this is hard bc i like frank and joe BOTH so much. they are hilarious. frank is all like calm and collected most of the time but he obviously has a huge crush on nancy and i find that very amusing just bc of how flustered he gets about it. and joe? joe is just the best. what can i say about joe. he speaks for himself. hes hilarious. ‘it’s a language, not a museum. tear down the velvet ropes standing in the way of your wordmagination’ comes to mind as a great example of that. and he and frank combined are just even funnier. i quote: ‘i get your drift, joe. i have lived with your drift for years. i am saddled with your drift.’ the hardy boys said sibling rights and they said it loud 

16. What’s your favorite Nancy Drew video game? Why?

this is a mean question. i like all the ones from 23 to 29. they are so good. i especially love shadow at the water’s edge and ghost of thornton hall because they scare the shit out of me. also they are very sad and the story is compelling and i love the characters. shoutout to yumi and harper for being like, the actual best. the deadly device is awesome too bc its one of the only two games with a murder in it and i love murder mysteries. also it has ryan who is another big favorite. i love her and i love her gummy bears. shes so fun. captive curse fun, kinda scary, great characters. silent spy is the same but not scary it’s just cool. i love spy stuff. i dont know what my favorite is of those. they are all my favorites

17. What’s your least favorite Nancy Drew video game? Why?

i don’t like ransom of the seven ships because i think it is boring compared to a lot of the others. it has a few good moments(re: the culprit) but it takes so long to get to those and it doesn’t feel worth it half the time. creature of kapu cave is also low on the list because it is very repetitive, it’s not as bad though. i actually like midnight in salem though i think it works better as a stand alone game than as a nancy drew game.

18. What Nancy Drew video game could you play over and over again? Why?

i mean, u know, all of them? but especially the stretch from 23 to 29 as well as some of the early games like curse of blackmoor manor or last train to blue moon canyon… legend of the crystal skull and phantom of venice… i like the scarier ones. last train to blue moon canyon isn’t very scary tho despite being billed as like, a haunted train. its just fun. so many pipe puzzles and i will never get tired of jake’s gem machine thing. that was awesome.

phantom of venice also isn’t very scary but i love it. i love like everything about it. also i like to sit with enrico tazza and play scopa for hours on end. i think it’s a great way to spend my time. (i win. always.)

20. What Nancy Drew game do you feel has the best storyline? Why?

okay this is gonna show my bias but i think shadow at the water’s edge… i mean the tragedy of what happened to kasumi and the rift between the family members… the hidden will… the ghost stuff… superb. fantastic

captive curse also has a really great one. ghost of thornton hall too though some of the details don’t match up timeline wise, get it together herinteractive. deadly device… alibi in ashes… okay we just came back to ‘23 through 29 are the best, so sue me’ but i really think HER was at the top of their game (haha) there because like… holy shit they’re all so awesome. i haven’t mentioned tomb of the lost queen bc it’s my least favorite of those games but it’s pretty good too, just doesn’t stand out in comparison to the others you know?

98. What got you into Nancy Drew?

well i don’t remember what got me into nancy drew originally! i’ve been told i was reading those books since i was like, five, which i can believe. i know that i got into the games because one of my friends saw my book collection and was like u know there are computer games. i have a couple of them. we can play them if you want and i was like o_O and, well, the rest is history

117. What’s your favorite thing about Nancy Drew as a character?

she’s so badass! i love that she’s like, not afraid to be feminine but also just kicks ass on a regular basis. and she’s smart, but she knows that she needs to rely on her friends and does so. overall she’s iconic and i really looked up to her as a kid and i kinda still do lol

119. What’s your absolute favorite character (not Nancy, Carson, Hannah, Bess, George, Joe, or Frank) from any of the video games?

oh oh that’s hard. ummmm i love ryan and yumi and mel but i think my overall favorite is harper. i mean i can relate to how it feels to be sort of ‘separated’ from your family due to mental health issues… caused by trauma… caused by a member of your family. i like to think i’m dealing with it somewhat better than harper but also i have access to like, therapy and stuff, whereas she got tossed in a glorified asylum. so… yeah! anyway theres a reason i have a quote from her in my blog description and its not because i dont like her haha

thank you this was so fun waaaaah

“Oh no! She wrecked her roux!” —George Fayne, DDI

“Not funny like ‘ha ha,’ funny like ‘Aaaah, help, I’m in a well!’” —Harper Thornton (I have infinite love for both her and Wade ok shut up)

“Stuff. I want...stuff. New stuff that’s just like this old stuff, but...different.” —Minette (this one is a big fuckin mood)

“It’s a language, Frank, not a museum! Tear down the velvet ropes of your wordmagination!” —Joe Hardy, DED

“I get your drift, Joe. I live with your drift. I am saddled with your drift.” —Frank Hardy, TRN
