what if we knew not that we were not. and we were both girls
#what if!!#their scenes are so lovely and frankly this is canon to me#everyone on the expedition has a bunch of former situationships which is what happens when you all grow up in a cohort#knowing you'll die together#and the population of your city keeps shrinking#and that makes it even worse when renoir wipes the entire group in the first hour#congratulations your entire social circle has perished before your eyes#clair obscur: expedition 33

nobody makes characters like Anders Dragon Age anymore
He’s traumatized from his time in the circle, he’s traumatized from being a Grey Warden, he’s possessed, he participated in cannibalism one time, he hates himself, he blew up a church, he was too gay in 2011 and made gamer bros mad. But at the end of the day he stays silly
#as someone with an anders tattoo I cosign this#verso is K I L L I N G me#I thought we'd lost this technology#clair obscur: expedition 33

Really highly reccomend this interview of Jennifer Svedberg-Yen, head writer for Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. In it she corrects the misconception that Monoco was named after their office dog (56:44), and confirms that they intended for players to view Monoco as a potential romance-able character (52:42, transcribed below)
Interviewer: Initially when I realized there was a romance system, I was like, 'why can't I romance Monoco?' And then I realized he was a dog. So...
JSY: Well you can romance him. I don't know if you picked up on that, but, you know, he does invite you to cuddle at the end.
Interviewer: Yeah little spoon!
JSY: You can be little spoon, yeah. There is that. It's implied. We didn't want to go too ham on it, but, you know, it's a...it's up to player interpretation, right? If players want to interpret it as a cuddle, it is. If players want to interpret it as more than a cuddle, that's also possible.
#this rules so much#I love when writers are like *lips on the mic* ALL companions are romanceable#what if you had a boyfriend and he was made of wood#clair obscur: expedition 33

"And then there's you, the actual favorite."
Damn Verso isn't even real and he still caught that middle child jealousy.
#I literally said exactly this when I played through this scene today#the actual favorite#the one who gets a lesson in a tower from a father who wants her to grow#a tower with a roof made of straw - like a nest she can launch herself out of#not an island of masks and grotesqueries#renoir loves his son - truly#and also: That is what he thinks of him#(honestly this game is going to kill me)#clair obscur: expedition 33

argh thank you for that, DELETED
All good. I get the temptation to believe in a photo like that, but it's a little too good to be true, y'know? Like, it's a pretty picture, but that ain't what solar eclipse photography looks like. If it was, you'd see photos like that all the time.
It seems like it might be plausible, because sometimes you see pictures like this:

This is a legit photo of a solar flare. I got this from NBC. That little inset of the Earth is to show scale. That's important. Those fancy streams of light coming off the sun are actually jets of solar plasma tens of thousands of miles long, and when they happen, they cause massive geomagnetic storms and crazy auroras here on Earth. They can be threats to satellites, and astronauts, if they're actually aimed at us, because the radiation is so powerful. They're cool to look at! But you will only ever see them in photos like this: quite close to the sun's surface.
Here's another image, from a video uploaded by Actual NASA. (nasa-official@ is not actually associated with NASA. It's a joke account. Sometimes they post real space stuff but they have no mandate to vet anything. Nothing against them, just remember that a tumblr account that says "official" on it doesn't really mean anything.)
Cool! The sun really does do that! But again, look at the height of the coronal mass ejections relative to the actual size of the sun. They're quite close to the surface, relatively speaking. And even these 'low' plasma jets can fuck us up on Earth.
Now let's take another look at the 'solar eclipse photo:'

HMMMMMM. If that was actual plasma, those jets would be billions of miles long and everything on Earth would be dead.
If that isn't plasma...then what the fuck is it supposed to be, exactly? And if it's something you can photograph from the ground, even if you'd need some kind of special NASA lens to do it, why wouldn't NASA be putting out calendars of cool sun photography all the time? They love sharing neat pictures of stuff in space, and I've never seen anything like this before. Also, if it was a real photo, you wouldn't be able to get NASA to shut up about their fancy new lens that makes the sun look so pretty. I would have read 15 articles about it by now.
AI is everywhere these days. Just try to keep in the back of your mind the fact that if you've never seen an image of something before, especially if it's ~Super Aesthetic~, it's probably because the image is fake.
#you know how when you see a news article headline that affirms every bias and knee-jerk feeling you have about how the world works#that you should subject that to even more fact checking than usual#if you see something utterly fantastic and new - double check#and maybe you'll learn something too!
