Welcome to my Blog!

I realized I’ve been on here for like a year now and figured I’d finally make a pinned post to have as sort of a guide. This is my main blog, I have a side one I’ll try to keep yapping about anime too but this one will be games! I’ll make a post to organize writing as well!

Name: Mika Age: 19 Pronouns: They/She

Sexuality: Queer & Asexual Timezone: UTC+9

Languages: English and Japanese! 英語／日本語

I’ve been playing games and watching anime for like my whole life and supported for that from my father who is into the same! I’m in university now to get a psychology degree and then master in social work as I want to become a social worker.

Currently hyperfixated over and expect a lot of Dragon Age things LOL. Love and Deepspace as well as a side thing but I’m really fixated on Dragon Age as I play through it! FFXIV is one that always exists in the back of my mind after years of playing it on and off too I’ll probably resub for evercold!

I like adore more non-modern (medieval?) settings for fantasy games not really a high tech or space person.

Ask box is open I’ll switch from the requests thing if people want to send stuff!!

Random little tidbits cause my dragon age hyperfixation is really bad though right now!

Worldstate

DAO - Warden’s name is Mikaela Cousland, romanced and married Alistair!

DA2 - Romanced Isabela with Hawke!

DAI - Inquisitor is Mira Lavellan, Cullen romanced and married!

DATV - not here yet :D!

I have more headcanons for them hehhehhh

full heartedly a shakarian truther to my chest for Shepard but for myself… Miranda gets one hand, Thane gets my other, and I’m interlocking toes with Kaidan.

Shepard gets to kiss Garrus while I have my weird thing in the corner.

I turned 1?????? It feels like it’s been longer 😭

[mikamika06]

Stray mass effect thoughts ive had recently. I love EDI and Joker but we basically nuke their relationship picking destroy ending so that can get more messy. Plus as a queer girl Miranda just feels like the song “little miss perfect” so…

I feel like a tourist playing mass effect because I’ve liked dragon age so much I wanted to try mass effect despite disliking media set in space 😭

[mikamika06]

I needed to reblog this post I finished the whole trilogy a couple days ago, posted about it, but wanted to reblog this. (College student who isn’t employed during a summer break perks…)

Can I say that mass effect impacted me more then dragon age I sobbed like a baby multiple times playing mass effect 3 and at the ending. I never cry at media, like it’s a whole joke with my family but whooooo holy shit.

I think it got me really cause it was 140+ hours with these characters and the protagonist. Hell I had shit spoiled and it still got me sobbing like a baby cause I knew it was happening 😭

Can’t even rank the three games because I feel like mass effect one set things up, mass effect two introduced great characters, and mass effect three expanded the set up from the other two with the characters and the story and I feel like I’m like cheesy but it genuinely put me through an emotional spike I haven’t been before with media pieces 😭

[mikamika06]

well I uh beat mass effect 3 in the legendary edition so well time to make up headcanons cause I made my canon the control ending. A little bit of spoiler filled yapping I’ll block off.

Maybe a bit incoherent lol.

So holy shit.

I honestly picked the control path cause destroy did sound good. Hell that’s what the whole game was about, killing the reapers. But we did the same thing to the Geth and saved them and it honestly felt like that on a way bigger scale. Because I mean the credits show them helping, and as a paragon shep I think it could be the best path because it’s not killing off an entire species. The synthetics atleast in this world showed signs of evolution, as Legion showed how they had actual developing cells that were functioning like real ones because of the reaper evolution.

Synthesize just felt weird. The catalyst clearly had some intention and belief it was good but hell, words from the one who thinks reaping is a proper way to control civilization is like something I didn’t want to listen to. Also everyone would forcibly shift, and it depends how comfortable folk would be with that and I feel like alot of folk wouldn’t.

I played paragon so destroy felt just a bit wrong. It was the intention and the entire goal that they had for so long but like the words thrown at me and my Shepard (hivemind between the two of us totally lol) control just seemed better. I had enough war points that I could get the whole breath ending I learned but I just don’t think after the batarians having thousands, way more even, die for this whole goal sounds good.

Less yappy more sappy down below 👇

Poor Garrus cause I romanced him though I like to think the synthetics because it said Shepard’s memory and thoughts will live on recognize he was, is, important to her. Maybe EDI knows stuff, maybe Shepard can get a body like EDI has one and Joker and Garrus can bond over robot girlfriends 🥲

Companion groups in ME and DA

Lowkey this is just because polls are fun but I’m playing through mass effect 3 right now too for the first time. I know BioWare has KOTR and other ones but as mass effect and dragon age are the two I’ve been playing I wanted to pester folk about this lol.

Plus, I always adore a group of companions. Found family is like my favorite media trope like ever.

This could be for banter or for vibes or favorite characters, etc etc. I’d say it’s hard to chose a favorite first but I have one that certainly stood out for me the most lmao after thinking about it for a bit and cause I’m asking the class (you) to share with me mine is dragon age 2!!!

What companion group is personally your favorite?

Dragon Age Origins

Dragon Age 2

Dragon Age Inquisition

Dragon Age The Veilguard

Mass Effect 1

Mass Effect 2

Mass Effect 3

Mass Effect Andromeda

so like I’m totally excited andromeda is the next game on my list to play help cause I’m halfway through me3 😭 but I do feel like the dragon age community is bigger here. Hell I voted for da2 but wow…

[mikamika06]

so anyways lesson learned do not play mass effect 3 on your period I did priority tuchanka and priority citadel 2 today and had to take a break from sobbing xx 😊

I like looking back on my “idk how I’ll feel about mass effect” post on here.

I’ve been fucking gutted

Anyways I realize Shepard and Hawke top my protagonist lists completely now which was so silly as I was scared about playing mass effect 😭 those two are like my s-tier protagonists I think they’d be friends.

[mikamika06]

G’raha Tia I miss u so much always you weren’t even someone I could romance but BioWare is giving me the high now I wanted with all these characters sorta like him that I can romance 😭 giggled heavily in the whole Dawntrail gondola ride but then he ruined it but also had a really good conversation about mourning…

But Cullen, Alistair, and Garrus are those such

The whole sorta awkward but still the steadfast of steadfast ally and confidant energy while also being able to be a commanding force.

+ larian filling in with Gale as well. Can’t forget Gale also being a G’raha variant

My 2020 self literally went from him into spilting him into his core parts and finding him in other characters 😭 dragon age origins and mass effect came our b4 G’raha was even reintroduced in Shadowbringers but this is my order I found them in…

[mikamika06]

to advise of ships happily made on my tomodachi life island, Morrigan and Leliana have a crush on each other after a few weeks

Dorian was on the island for less then a day and Zevran confessed to him so they’re together now 😭

The only two pairings so far I haven’t put the real world relationship trigger in for

[mikamika06]

finally got post horizon so im doing the firewalker stuff to get all the loyalty missions unlocked first and im getting edged by the game cause i want garrus’s to unlock so badly to flirt with him but HIS IS GONNA BE THE LAST TO UNLOCK 😭

please let me at the turian mass effect please I skipped romances in me1 so I wouldn’t have the cheating allegations later for this bird-bug man

[mikamika06]

I’m still like in the recruiting folk stage of mass effect 2 I just have like two more companions so no spoilers pls but I wanted to yap so if it’s not right don’t correct me or give me info im just not subjecting my friends to any more yapping over this 😭😭😭

Cerebus completely reconstructing Shepard from “unidentifiable meat” just makes me fixate on the fact it would be so interesting if something was slightly off about her/him. I’m assuming there was some degree of preservation on the brain but like thinking about how much of Shepard is artificial now is insane. I’m more of a paragon player so the scars are healing but I’ve seen for renegade they don’t, and like whattt????!!

Also the whole base getting attacked they said Shepard wasn’t entirely ready yet… like what would even be lacking…

I don’t know I do like to think they reconstructed to a T but like this still isn’t the entirely same cause even then if there was brain damage they’d have to reconstruct it themselves so something would be not the original brain matter. Which as like a psych student so much personality and so much functions revolve around how your brain is. People can completely shift personalities to damage to parts of the brain,,

Like I get that they have a lot of money but how would they know the intricacies of what was supposed to be in places,, like Shepard’s finger prints? Teeth? All of those are unique…

[mikamika06]

It’s the thing!!! the easter egg!!

Giggled at Kasumi saying imagine this thing charging at you cause I’ve had this thing charge at me… in another life.

I know the same universe theory between dragon age and mass effect is disproven but I refuse to accept that for sheer whimsy.

[mikamika06]

anyways real question cause this picture is all over rn on Twitter how the fuck did the horse get up there 😭
