A Girl Named Tex

Okay, so I finally got around to marathoning Red vs. Blue. Season 6 came out earlier this year. It's not normally the kind of thing I'd watch, but I heard that they were doing something more plot-heavy that had a lot of potential and I gave the first episode a shot. Also, my brother basically begged me and said that there's a dark, abusive soldier woman in it.

It's really funny stuff, honestly. Super clever, great comedy, gets super wacky by the end of the Blood Gulch Chronicles. Season 6 tones down the wackiness and especially has a ton of potential, and I can't wait to see where it goes. This AI stuff is genuinely interesting, the Meta seems like a cool villain, and Agent Washington is a serious breath of fresh air, you know?

I think I actually liked it. I really wanna see where the story of Project Freelancer and the Alpha AI goes.

But fuck Tucker. Seriously, fuck Tucker. Church is right to hate him.

I didn't know Halo had a story.

EDIT: What do you mean there's a Halo book???? I'm not reading a whole-ass book????

"Fall of Reach"?????

Sounds super fucking gay.

OOC: Red vs. Blue ended recently, and I finally got around to seeing the final season. There was stuff in it that I thought could have been done better, and stuff that I thought were pitch-perfect ways to end the series.

Red vs. Blue is probably the biggest single inspiration for my writing. From my fanfic to my serials to my novels, I've learned so much about writing both comedy and drama from that show, and it's given me so much inspiration. As a kid, characters like Agent Texas and Agent Carolina gave me words to describe the kind of butch femininity and personal strength that I often wanted to emulate.

RVB has had a long history, from the hilarious Blood Gulch seasons to the near-perfect Seasons 6-10 and onward to the creative Chorus seasons.

I would not be a writer without RVB. I wouldn't have my novel manuscripts I've written, or my serials, or even a lot of my fanfic.

It's probably worth saying that Rooster Teeth, the company that made the show, had a long and at times unethical history. I have a lot of respect for people like Burnie Burns or Miles Luna as artists, but I try not to think about what they oversaw at times.

Still, show's over, everyone can go home. It's insane to think about, especially since for a while RVB seemed like an infinite institution: as long as it made money, they were going to keep making it.

Well, now there's no money, and they stopped.

It feels like the end of an era for me. I wouldn't be the person I am without this show.

So, here's a tribute, I guess. Now back to your Class of '09 regularly scheduled programming.

Book 2 Snippet - Extended

I posted some of this on Instagram recently, but I really like this conversation and thought I'd post a bit more of it here. The format is less limiting when it doesn't have to be a bloody photo. I hope you enjoy!

“So, what’s wrong?” Martin asked, opening the conversation. “Why am I here, Martin?” “I mean, why are any of us here? It’s one of life’s great mysteries.” “No, you twit, I mean here in an office. I shouldn’t be chief of anything.” “Return question: why do we do this every other Monday morning? You’ve been saying that shit for months now, and yet you continue to get your job done well. Can you not just accept that, even though this is a wildly different environment than the old lock and key, you actually belong here?” “Evidently not.” “Look, maybe we’ll talk to Julia. If the setting is the problem, we could probably have you work from the depot most of the time. But as the chief of security, you will have to be in and out of office settings.” “Oh, so it’s ��The Depot’ now? Honestly, you could have just said ‘work from home,’ you know.” “Cappuccinos for Martin!” the barista announced. The men collected their coffees and found a bench very near the door to the terrace that used to belong to Purple Cube, Ltd. “If it helps, you can do what I do,” Martin continued. “Focus on the tasks. Either you can do them or you can’t. Do you think I ever thought I’d be a chief technology officer? Titles are bollocks anyway. It’s just a job to do.” “I enjoy working with the trainees. Degenerates, the lot of them. My sort of blokes.” “See? Just focus on that!” “That helps for now, but just in case, same time two Mondays from now?” “Always,” Martin replied, and clinked his coffee cup with Duncan’s.

Posted this in a few different places, but I made this video and thought about posting here too

You ever wonder why we’re here?

[thepariahcontinuum]

So the last RWBY thing to happen at RoosterTeeth is RWBY Beyond ep 4 and Ruby notes that Taiyang is on assignment and asks what could be more important.

Or....For some RoosterTeeth feels and to bring it full circle.

"Do you ever wonder why we're not here?"

A little farewell piece I finished up after having watched Restoration last night. This is my way of saying thanks and farewell to my favorite webseries.

Red vs blue nostalgia

I consider it a tragedy I only started watching red vs blue after I found out Rooster Teeth was shutting down. I have been finding the episodes on youtube and have compiled a playlist of the entirety of red vs blue, complete with intros, even if some of the seasons have the intros built in. I can't find season 6's intro, and I haven't gotten the intros beyond that. I am currently at season 5 in watching them.

My gift to you all:

I was born in the golden age of gaming, the problem is, I wasn't old enough to experience it. I grew up playing halo, but none of the online stuff that people get nostalgic about. I would love to find a group of people to get online and go through the old maps with, but that will have to be a later event.

Red vs Blue is a master piece. I never watched it at it's peak, but somehow it's still nostalgic and screams "2000's". I first found out about it from seeing a meme of Sarge saying "we've been tricked. We've been backstabbed. And we've been quite possibly bamboozled." I recognized the armor as being from halo and frantically searched for the origin of that saying. I think I did find that it came from red vs blue, but I didn't watch it at that time. And then I saw it again later on prime (don't know how long it was there), but never got to asking my mom if I could watch it. She would never had said yes... The number of inappropriate jokes, references, and comments...

Them: "When you first saw halo red vs blue, were you blinded by it's majesty?" Me: "Blinded? I was in tears at its beauty."

The theme song is perfection. The voices were instantly iconic, and became even more iconic when I found out it was because the actors had to phone in their lines and they decided to keep that tinny/muffled effect instead of rerecording them. That's how you make something memorable. And it all started with a group of friends, an awesome videogame, and a simple yet deep question: "You ever wonder why we're here?"

I wonder how many tags i can add on to this

[arundolyn]

on one hand it sucks cause it sucks to see her like this and for her to have to go through it in general and also its literally so much cancer and like at least???? at LEAST 2 different types???? so they don't know what to do about it and any further treatment would literally just be Seeing What Happens. and it sucks for this to be like. it. and to have to remember This after

but on the other it's also. like. all of this happening has kinda crystallized more in my mind that i don't have a hell of a lot of nice things to say about my mom in the end. which feels awful. but also at the same time i can't really like.. tolerate. giving credit to someone who Loves me who like.. saw it as an obligation? and would and probably will right now if given the opportunity hold it over my head? the fact that she raised me and all. i brought you into this world ill take you out etc. i don't know how you can say that shit to a kid ever and think you're right. i just can't. for all that she's always said she loves me she sure. doesn't act like it much. i don't think keeping all my baby blankets and my kindergarten schoolwork counts for much when your actual emotional support of me has never been great and is half of why im Like This. like it doesn't really feel like she's ever made much of an effort to understand me. lord knows I'll never understand her at this point aside from just. kinda always been too self centered for parenting i think. my mother has never been particularly selfless.

all of this feels horrendous to say out loud in any regard
