Crowley was drinking alone at the bar. He had finally stopped being miserable at home and had upgraded it to being miserable at a bar not too far away.

It didn’t seem like a bad idea earlier. But now, after drinking quite extraordinary amounts of alcohol, maybe he shouldn’t have come. At least not to that specific bar.

From where Crowley was seated he could see the exact same table he used the last time he was there. When he was surprised by a discorporated Aziraphale just after he thought he had lost his best friend forever.

Best friend. He took another shot.

- Whoa! Easy there, sir - A young woman approached.

The glass hit the wood with a loud noise.

- What do you want? - He could or could not have said that a little more rudely than he intended.

- Oh, I see - She stepped back. - You like being depressed on your own.

- I’m not depressed.

- Is it because of a woman?

Crowley allowed himself the free will of ignoring her. Unfortunately, it didn’t work as well as he thought it would.

- I knew it! - She insisted. - It’s always because of a woman.

- Yeah. Congrats, Sherlock. Have a gold star.

Crowley gestured to the barman and he filled the glass again.

- Is she beautiful?

- Gorgeous - Sarcastically, he went along with it. Maybe she’d leave him alone once she had her curiosity satiated.

- How is she like? I bet I can guess your type.

- Bet you can’t - He grinned and took a sip of his drink.

- Brunette?

Crowley shook his head.

- Blonde. Platinum blonde.

Almost white. And a bit fluffy. Like the clouds.

- Badass? - She continued.

Not exactly.

- Too pure.

- Clever?

- Only when he’s not stupid - Crowley answered, hoping that would put an end to the interrogation.

- Oh - She had the decency to look embarrassed. - Ok.

Crowley finished his shot and left a good tip on the balcony. He should have stayed home.

******

His flat was exactly the same as always. Basically empty. Except from the plants and a good amount of empty bottles of all drinkable things he could think of.

He threw himself on the sofa and took off his sunglasses. After a moment of silence, he allowed some tears to fall down his face.

- I miss you, Angel - Crowley said. To no one in particular.

But up there, somehow, maybe the message got delivered. The Supreme Archangel was now looking at a picture of him and a certain Demon, took in a famous stage in 1941.

- I miss you, Crowley - Aziraphale said.

A few thoughts on the characters #6

When Harry was about 20 years old, he got Mr. Pickle. The dog died 11 years later, and Harry made a stuffed animal of him. He didn't bury it and get a new furry friend. No, he looked at his dead dog in the bathroom every day.

His understanding of love and friendship is questionable. 

His walls are constantly cluttered with something (whether it's his office, dining room, or cell at Statesman). Most of his paintings at home are landscapes. And they're pretty monotonous. But the breeds of dogs in the drawings are very different. As are the butterflies on the walls of the room at TGC. Coin collections are present.

There are almost no portraits or images of people in Harry's house (I saw two drawings of children, some generic portrait of military men (?) and two dark portraits of some woman (?)).

By the way, there are portraits of the founders hanging in the Kingsman's dining room. Arthur has pictures of people hanging in his study. Eggsy has pictures of his father hanging in his room, and pictures of Tilde on his study table.

It's a small thing, of course, but it always confused me that first he says he wants a butterfly collection and then brings up his mom.

It's fair to say that we don't know much about Harry and these are just my impressions of how he builds relationships with others and other little things. But it's like Harry was somewhat disillusioned with people and Mr. Pickle was making him feel less alone. And like the bathroom with the stuffed dog and the dead butterflies was really the place for him to feel happy.

30 Days of Dark Cloud - Day 26

26. Weapon system of Dark Cloud or Dark Cloud 2?

Dark Cloud 2. That's pretty easy. But you know, the more I think about, the more I get insecure about it but I'll try to keep a clear opinion. Compared to Dark Cloud, Dark Cloud 2's weapon system has been more refined - by that I mean, it's easier, clearer (in my opinion), you have more options, you accumulate the synthesis points you get with each level and then you can choose when you want to use them anytime, there are also more elements, I guess. Your weapon doesn't dissapear when it breaks. To be honest, I am not a fan of that 'weapon will dissapear if you don't take care of it'. Well, normally, your weapon shouldn't dissapear, that's all. I haven't got any problem with it, it's just that it's a thing that makes it a bit harder, and that has been removed for the sequel to make it easier, quicker, more manageable (but also in DC, you just have to put on your automatic powder above and don't have that prob anymore) - if your weapon breaks, fix it and continue fighting - if you don't have any powder left , your bad, go and buy new one. That's another point, I'm not sure about it but my feeling says that DC2 is more expensive in that aspect. Anyway, you have two playable characters, where each one has his main and sub weapon and you can build up the characters the way you like but - you have to improve both because you are transferred to each character and need both (e.g. in sealed levels), also it is waaaaay easier to handle if every weapon is improved so you can switch however you like. That goes for Dark Cloud too. You have six playable characters, but everyone only has one weapon and you also have to improve theirs (in my case I just bought the one for Goro when it came to that sealed level, so I played them once and that's it, when I feel like it I build them up too, but I've never been as motivated for it as in for DC2(except of Toan, Xiao and Ruby!)) because it may be really difficult as well. If you get a level-up in Dark Cloud, you have to put your 'attachments' on and there are often only 2 or 3 slots, so you have to wait another level-up to continue building your weapon up - I recommend collecting those diamonds, stones that increase multiple stats at once and in my opinion, it is much easier to get them in Dark Cloud (especially when you are in those background, side, deeper, idk what to call it levels, THOSE WITH THAT INTERROGATION MARK). What I like is that you can put your attachments on without synthesizing it and your weapon is stronger as well, but one day you'll have to synthesize anyway - also, your weapon can be turned in a 'crystal' off to +5 and can be used then  on your other weapons, which - in my opinion - makes everything a lot easier, interesting and more practical. Both weapon systems contain special abilities, have their own stats, are manageable and only difficult if you don't use it right or don't put enough time and effort into it (yeah DC may need more time but you know, these games are unpredictable and that's why many things depend on what you get and how much luck you have, but you should pay attention to both otherwise you'll get equal problems in both games). I prefer the weapon system of Dark Cloud 2, not because it is easier or more practical, but because I can just sympathize with it more. Dark Cloud's weapon system has it's own charm, it's the origin anyway and that's what I love about it but I'll take the Dark Cloud 2's system over the Dark Cloud's this time. I also don't want to make this any longer, everything is said /no way/ because I noticed that I tend to write a lot ahahaha so I'm gonna say bye for now.
