"Normandy and their Eternal love for tea"

I ran out of space for Jack, Sally, Will, and Tyrone, but I didn't forget about them :)

(Explanation below)

"No coffee on the Normandy!"

Following the rule that "the word 'plan' is forbidden" comes another: only tea is allowed on board — and off it as well. Imperial tea tastes disgusting, and the only tolerable blend is either reserved for the Emperor himself or sold at an exorbitant price.

Once, back in the early years when the Normandy still had a reputation as a mere mercenary crew, a supplier hired them for a tea delivery job — fully intending to scam them out of an extra thousand credits.

He probably didn't expect to later find an Imperial special forces soldier — Technoblade, the ship's captain — standing before him, explaining quite clearly the importance of honest dealings. As compensation, the Normandy took the entire shipment of that expensive tea on board. The cargo boxes filled the corridors and the storage bay. But from that day on, the fifth crew has refused to drink anything else.

And why would they? They have: black, green, chamomile, mint, oolong, white, rose, red, blue, nutty, chocolate...

I played Nohl route in the R18, Japanese version of Koezaru ha Akai Hana - The Crimson Flower that Divides and it was interesting, I guess...

I played all the bad endings though and the experiences were rather, well, weird... I would definitely not recommend it to though who don't like extreme yandere behaviors though.

Overall, I don't like both Nohl and Naala in this route. Naala is promising in the beginning but in Nohl's route, she loses all spunk and becomes super obedient, prone to doing actions that degrade herself. And Nohl reminds me so much of Jin from The Second Reproduction, but I like Jin a lot while I just hate Nohl. And the bad endings, obviously, I know it is a thing in R18 games to include those kinds of endings, but they definitely don't make me like him better.

A little bit about each girl: 🌊 Moune 🌊 is a water elementalist, she is mute but can speak underwater and is very kind and welcoming to visitors. She lives on an island rich in vegetation and loves spending her time in the water, especially practicing her magic and exploring the depths. 🌪️ Ruhr Volans 🌪️ is an air elementalist, one of the protagonists of my story so she's already known, when she's really happy she involuntarily floats. 🌱 Naala Rana 🌱 is an earth elementalist that lives in a cold mountain area, taking care of her grandparents' yaks and helping her grandma with pottery. Since Naala has the rare ability to commune with the spirits of nature, she may take on animal forms to aid her. 🔥 Zaraza 🔥 is a fire elementalist that lives in an arid landscape as a gypsy nomad. She channels her magic through dancing and is able to manipulate fire into taking various animal forms. For my story Insane Five. Characters belong to me.

My newest Naala in Lingo Legend. My baby is so DONE.

I’m so proud.

Also, this game is habit forming. Which is pretty much what you want in a language learning app.

Song Review(s): Gary Clark Jr.: “Maktub,” “JPEG RAW,” “This is Who We Are” (feat. Naala) and “Hyperwave”

As he prepares to release his fourth major-label album - and first since 2019 - Gary Clark Jr. is still searching for his musical identity. Or, perhaps, he’s just embracing his multiple studio personalities.

So obviously a generational six-stringer on stage, Clark has taken more circuitous paths in studio, a penchant that seems primed to continue on the forthcoming (March 22) JPEG RAW, announced with a schizophrenic, four-song sampler.

Taken together - and even individually - “Maktub,” “JPEG RAW,” “This is Who We Are” (with Naala on co-lead vocals) and “Hyperwave” find Clark incorporating elements of pop, hip-hop, night-club jazz, soul and progressive rock with the occasional guitar solo tossed in but typically hidden under the surface of the mix. Rather than weaving these elements together to create a new genre, Clark - who sings like Steven Tyler on “Maktub” and adopts a high range on “Hyperwave” - turns in the equivalent of four mismatched patchwork quilts.

Given his virtual disappearance over the past half-decade, Clark’s re-emergence is great news for live-music lovers, given the guitarist, who just a few dates on the books at this point, supports JPEG RAW on the road. Record buyers, however, might spend their cash elsewhere.

For Clark has yet to make an album that comes close to capturing what he puts on the stage. The one-third of JPEG RAW now available suggests that won’t change anytime soon.
