Robert was so cute in Episode 1 and then he gets thrown to the fuckin sharks for the rest of the season. He's either annoyed, tired, or injured. 😭

[rookishwanderer]

The way i've had to box my way out of every fucking level. I SUCK AT STEALTH.

[rookishwanderer]

So glad Beacon gets the live show in a week bc the spoilers I'm already seeing...

[rookishwanderer]

Don't get me wrong, I think Sarah hate is out of pocket but boy is she annoying me bad rn. Gonna switch her out after I'm through with these Vanguard missions. Don't even think I wanna romance her anymore. 😭

[rookishwanderer]

Finished with Vanguard and the end was kinda underwhelming. Wish the whole quest line was longer. Also why are all the companions mad that I picked the Aceles.

Like damn my bad for going with the natural solution, the attacked we witnessed were outliers and they're acting like we at war right now. Sarah got super mad at me with my responses too. Girl you're BENCHED. I'm sick of you. Sorry your crew died or whatever but damn.

Played for 2 weeks straight when the update came out and have been on a LONG break since then. Finally opening the game back up and have to relearn how to play and what the fuck I was doing.

Had some survival settings enabled but wasn't having much fun so probably turning those off. And have been very stingy with money and upgrades which were also probably hindering me a lot. Hate that making the game more enjoyable takes away XP.

Not starting over bc I know I won't make it as far as I have now if I do.

First time Smuggler run

Xandis Keybane

Xandis is in it for the money, parties, and sex to put it bluntly. His only priority rn is getting back his ship. Tends to talk things out first before attacking, very sarcastic, not apposed to lying to get what he wants. Can be empathetic in certain situations. For example, he did not bring the medicine back to the Cathar woman bc that wasn't his problem, but when faced with the doctor and sick kids, he convinced the Republic to help. He still got paid in the end. Very neutral and what benefits him most. So far he hasn't threatened or forced anyone to comply, that's not his style.

Playing Smuggler has been fun so far, very chill compared to how I stress about my Sith Warrior and Jedi Knight decisions. Just going with the flow. Heavily flirting with the girl voiced by Ali Hillis even though it probably wont go anywhere.

I don't think we get Buddie tonight but I DO think we get Gay Eddie.

The way I don't even go here, I've never watched Invincible but these fics got me in a chokehold! Mark is so cute in them, imma have to read the comic and watch the show.

[rookishwanderer]

I'm back in the motherfucking building again after thinking I was gonna play some FFXIV but nope! Got bored after a day, for some reason FFXIV is such a slog for me. Played a little ESO as well but nothing beats the story, choice, and consequence of SWTOR.

Just saw a clip from The Awakening and Katara literally revived Aang back then too. Haven't watched since I was a kid so don't jump me for not remembering. I just think all the callbacks in the movie are dope.

[rookishwanderer]

The fact that I ignored all those Avatar movie/show announcements they did a couple years ago bc I never believed it would actually happen and this movie gets dropped on my lap??? Literally my will to live, the pure dopamine that's been running through my veins for DAYS. And we'll probably see nothing like this again. I'm crying for 2 reasons.

[rookishwanderer]

I feel like a kid again

The way i didn't expect this movie to affect me so much. I haven't watched ATLA since it aired, but watching that movie brought out so many emotions. I fucking love this universe and these characters. I never read the comics and didn't watch Korra, I don't even think I knew it existed back then. And I didn't want to go into it without rewatching ATLA.

I remember bits and pieces from back then, I vividly remember watching the finale. I don't remember the Kataang subplot at ALL, I'm not great at recognizing romantic cues now, imagine back then. But Kataang in this movie??? Kataang shippers pls accept me, I'm not a fraud if I never shipped anyone. (though I mostly want Katara for myself)

This movie was made FOR THE FANS. Watching everyone make art and write smut about these characters in 2026 is so crazy to me (I know it's always existed). The fact that they made everyone hot! I never thought I'd see the day where ppl thought Aang was hot. They recognized that we are adults and that these characters grew with us.

I need more!!!! We need a show with them as adults! I'll settle for another movie. FUCK PARAMOUNT.
