sorry i'm losing it thinking abt how klaasje is actually granted sooooo much depth and sympathy from the writing of disco elysium itself but so many people hate her w a burning passion just for......... lying to harry as a witness (which most characters in this game do, to some degree, to protect themselves)? and running away at the tribunal???? THAT ONE ESPECIALLY PISSES ME OFF because what was she supposed to do? just stand there and watch??? try to negotiate with the mercenaries??????? (bad idea, in their eyes she's literally just a civilian and there's no way they would listen to her) GARTE wasn't even supposed to be outside at the tribunal. harry even tries persuading the hardy boys to stay out of it bc he knows they can't win, but they're just too stubborn. ppl treat klaasje like she somehow DESERVES to have been there and stupidly risk her life over a murder she didn't commit 😭 AND SHE'S STILL MOURNING HIM..... like everything klaasje does throughout the game is out of pure survival, she's just smart enough to realize that her circumstances are so royally fucked that her only choice is to mislead harry to avoid becoming the most obvious suspect BECAUSE SHE DOESN'T KNOW WHO THE REAL KILLER IS!!! she's stuck in a situation where she can't say anything to defend herself that actually makes a difference/makes her look less suspicious!!!!!!! HER ESCAPING ARREST and nudging harry towards the island based on a gut feeling that turned out to be right is the best possible outcome, the only way she could actually do something to help! the game literally rewards you for trusting that, if anything, klaasje isn't out to hurt anybody AND THAT'S WHAT MATTERS!!!!!!! GOD

nitw

and the weirdest thing is a lot of the same people who talk abt klaasje like this still claim that preventing ruby from killing herself and letting her run away is The Right Choice (which it is, obviously) WHEN THAT'S BASICALLY THE SAME DEAL WITH KLAASJE. once she starts opening up (as much as she's able to) about her past UNRELATED crimes, she makes it extremely clear that the moralintern is going to kill her if she gets arrested over this case, and that one shivers check supports this. this is the implication you're supposed to take seriously. ruby's background isn't even any prettier than klaasje's, she worked for one of the most powerful and feared crime syndicates!! ppl literally only treat klaasje like more a villain because she hurts their feelings by being cool and pretty and not 100% honest about things LMAO............

nitw

so much of this game tries to drive home the idea of "your job is to Find The Murderer And Find Out Why It Happened, because if you don't, no one else will, and that would be bad. try not to abuse your cop powers along the way. also harry is part of a subgroup of RCM officers who actually give a shit about ppl's livelihoods and are planning to overtake and completely rework the organization from the ground-up" and yet players will see klaasje struggling to protect herself in a fully legal and consequence-free way and go Ultra Angry Misogynist Cop Mode 5000

#KLAASJE MY BELOVEDDDD #genuinely such a beautifully written character

See him sweeties

He's so sweeties!

It's wild blueberry season in Sweden and I've been picking and eating my fill everyday from the forest behind my house! The entire forest floor is covered in wild blueberry bushes and the tangy taste is so cosmic, I had to paint them✨ Photos of the berries I picked!

Painting process~

“Even a slightly increased possibility of summoning rain is still an ability to summon rain” is such a good point

Rule #2

Don’t ever hug a lobster when you see one on the street,

For decorum is essential when a lobster you must greet.

You may comment on the weather, compliment his choice of hat,

But crustaceans like their space if one should stop them for a chat.

Don’t ever hug a lobster when you’re strolling down the coast,

Simply nod and give a greeting, or a handshake at the most,

For a lobster’s first priority is formal social graces,

And one seemes over-familiar if a lobster one embraces.

Don’t ever hug a lobster when you meet one in the sea,

For a lobster’s spines and chitin make it difficult, you see,

And he might become self-conscious if you bring that fact to light,

So don’t ever hug a lobster, simply put, it’s impolite.

I told my little nephew that I'd wave at his airplane when it flew over my house today, and he very calmly and politely explained that it wouldn't be possible to see me due to the limitations of human vision. I said he just had to squint real hard, and he took a deep breath and went into the toddler version of "see, what you're not understanding–"

my controversial opinion is I don’t think Zuko was confused by “my first girlfriend turned into the moon”

kyoshi-lesbians

he was there during siege of the North. he infiltrated the spirit oasis. he has an uncle who studies spirits and the spirit world. he watched the sky go dark then the moon suddenly reappear like everyone else in the entire world did. and most importantly he watched zhao get eaten by a giant godzilla fish spirit.

kyoshi-lesbians

his entire life since he saw that beam of blue-white light in the south pole has been ‘this day has already been so goddamn weird’

The only really new information was that that was Sokka’s girlfriend

Important opinion in the tags that I need to have be part of the post:

clearascountryair

Also, Iroh was there? He literally watched Sokka make out with the moon spirit. And you want to tell me that a romantic sap like him would not have immediately told Zuko about this romantic tragedy? Please, Zuko has known about this for ages, he just knows that this is not an acceptable situation in which to say “yeah, I know.”

terriwriting

Sokka: “My girlfriend turned into the moon.”

Zuko: “I know.” “Yes.” “She sure did.” “Uh huh.” “Tell me something new.” “Are we still talking about that?” “That’s rough, buddy.”

When you put it like that, this is actually a legendary display of tact on Zuko’s part

I've seen 3 of the 4 john wick movies and I love how all the dialogue is like. A dude will go like "Is that you John Wick?" And John Wick will go "Yeah..." and the guy will go "You doing some John Wicking tonight?" And John Wick will go "Something Like That..." And the dude will go "Shame it had to be this way" and John Wick will go "I'm Sorry..." and then John Wick caves the dude's head in with a giant wooden mallet. And it rules.

The rest of the dialogue is just outtakes from the Vampire the Masquerade player's manual
