still reeling from spamton neo in the sense that it got me looking between him and jevil then becoming possibly the last person to realize "oh what the fuck. they're darkners who functionally revert to objecthood in the dark world once you beat them"

#like. yes pledging to “lend their strength” in this way was ostensibly voluntary #but when THAT'S their idea of rewarding the lightners who gave them what-for (peacefully or otherwise) it's. more than a little unsettling?#in a way that feels intended as a writing choice to be clear #it's fascinatingly awful and given his Everything a doubly fucked prospect in spamton's case #for bonus points in psychic damage i can let myself think for more than 2 seconds about having *ralsei* equip jevilstail+dealmaker #my inner pragmatist: look this loadout just makes the most sense atp in the game #the rest of me: right right. absolutely. also though—jesus fucking *christ*#deltarune #light scribes

rite of passage unlocked: first-trying a boss i've never met before in my life but the preamble to that is dying 5 times to a deathtrap comprised of teacups and pure spite

so hi hello, it's been a hot minute!! whether twitter's done kidnapping my attention remains to be seen but i guess now's as good a time as any to go over some stuff i've been up to. for simplicity's sake i'll keep it limited to Little Gaming Things(tm): thanks to what i'm choosing to blame on botw and hollow knight i'm now deeply in love with action-adventure games??? at least that's where most of my focus has been lately (special shoutouts to haiku the robot and hyper light drifter for being stand-outs i enjoyed a lot). i'm still afflicted with Hollow Knight Brain though so i've kept playing it p consistently over the past year too... i unlocked absrad as i was hoping to do, did steel soul+steel heart, started playing hk on pc to mess around with mods, did steel soul+steel heart again on pc, most recently did pantheon 1 all bindings and finished up the individual bindings for pantheons 1-4 on my og switch file (i'm VERY sincerely proud of those 5 lifeblood masks lol) ......... and uhh. i did one other thing back in april on the pc file:

hmmmm!!!!! yeah. yup.

#looks at literally the last post i made here before this one. laughs and laughs and laughs #IN MY DEFENSE... a) my only real goal was to unlock the PoH exclusive bosses on my pc file too; also #b) up to this point i'd only beaten absrad in the hall of gods *TWICE*#twice out of well over 100 attempts #i expected nothing and look what happened anyway!!!! smh #also ngl it was indescribably surreal to watch godhome ending 1 play out in its *intended* context i.e. as something i triggered myself #just. whew!!!!!!!!#that said it was also funny bc as far as steam is concerned i beat pantheon of hallownest on my first try lmao #(ftr this was my 4th try including the switch file)#anyway: i'm probably gonna crosspost some twitter stuff over the coming days so here's fair warning of that 8')b!#hollow knight /-#light scribes

something that's striking me this morning: the little bit of monomon's "elegy for hallownest" that we get to see may be straight up parroting of pale court propaganda, but the fact that she called it an elegy in the first place feels super telling, especially given that she wrote this before fully submitting herself to her duties as a dreamer (also worth noting that it's some damn clever foreshadowing plopped right at the beginning of the game)

basically, monomon either knew from the start or after coming to that conclusion along the way that the pale king's plan was doomed—or rather, perhaps, that it should be doomed to failure. it didn't matter how earnestly she mourned hallownest's passing; she did that preemptively for a reason. we know from her dream nail dialogue that she wanted the stasis to end on philosophical grounds at the very least, and if this has been her stance for as long as this detail seems to indicate... well

monomon was already a subject performing a service on behalf of her king. it's not like she would have much if any room to object to the proceedings or decline her participation altogether—that is, until the only people left to argue with were her fellow dreamers. at least with them, accorded something like equal footing, she would have a fighting chance

#hollow knight #monomon the teacher #just mulling this over while working on another Big Essay since this happens to be tangentially related lol #i love the dreamers and i love getting fuckign owned by the inherent tragedy of the cards they were all dealt!!!! lies down #light scribes

the day will come when i don't catch myself trying to tag something "revolutionary gurl utena" and once i hit post/reblog i'll be like, no. i won't fix that. i accept my fate

#light scribes #i remembered my text post tag that's a miracle dskldfl

wow though it’s been a hot minute since i’ve posted/Been Around here in general... uhhh some updates are in order i suppose

on the life side of things: not a whole lot has changed! still working, still hoping i’ll get myself out of florida for good sooner rather than later. i managed to get a switch back in june and i’ve been picking my way through breath of the wild ever since lol... for anyone who doesn’t follow me on twitter here’s a giant livetweet thread if you're interested. watch as i transform from someone taking screenshots via their phone to a menace who figured out how to constantly spam their tl with gameplay footage!! 8’) that aside i’ve written some more too! and drew some, thought not nearly as much as i would’ve liked this year. i’ll post links and such here either tonight or tomorrow probably tttthat’s basically it??? idk how often i’ll pop my head in here from now on but i’d like to make an effort at least

#light scribes

#light scribes #this isn't me Taking Leave yet but the prospects for this site aren't looking good if tumblr doesn't miraculously backpedal (and fast)

for me chili occupies that awkward liminal Tasty Food space of “technically really good when done right + once i get myself to start eating it, but i’m almost Never in the mood for it anyway” lmao
