while I acknowledge that EPIC is an excellent musical by most metrics I cannot help but be annoyed by it as an adaptation. all this hand-wringing, attempted justifications, navel-gazing

"oooooh no I'm having a moral dilemma what do I do" bitch this is Greek mythology, we commit atrocities in this mf. take your goofy sensitive ass back to Hamilton

went back through Supergiant's Pyre after seven years away from it and. god what a beautiful game. Hades might be their best work but Pyre is still my favorite.

how many other games will let you beef with a tree and enter a romantic relationship with a crystal ball? not enough

as someone of Dutch-American descent I think the beautiful sights of my family's motherland should be appreciated by everyone, especially those in power. that's why I'm going to start replying to every official White House tweet with this promotional image

sticking pretty close to my goal of one update per month!

I'm always a bit leery of "golden route" 3H fics because there's always a chance that the author's idea of a good ending is "Bad Red Lady learns an important lesson about why the status quo is Actually Great For Everyone"

[occasionallydiverting]

of course even that is assuming that they let her live through it at all, instead of coming to the conclusion that the death of both herself and her vision for the future is in the world's best interest

"The death of a single man won’t change anything. Even your father, for all his power, does not singlehandedly uphold the Empire. For a true victory, this evil that calls itself a nation must be burned to ash."

If you're wondering how my attempt to distract myself by writing has been going, see the above quote. I guess this is what happens when I write Code Geass fanfiction in the year of our lord two thousand and twenty-four
