can i get yr take on my bordering on crackship for T&T but in my heart could be real and true? I think if capcom didn't take Larry's character down the path of being a complete loser idiot (which the game contradicts all the time with his prowess in art etc) and instead stuck to first-game Larry, who Miles & Phoenix were somewhat endeared to, and who seemed to have a semblance of being a kind person -- I think if you took THAT Larry and set him down a path of trying to figure out his own identity through art rather than relying on someone else, I think he & Iris would actually be really sweet. Something about making anything out of yourself without the scathing words of other people, the fact that Iris having secrets wouldn't really set him off (as someone who cares deeply for Miles & Phoenix), similarly Iris being an accomplice wouldn't bother him, and his puppy-dog love kind of works for Iris? ok i realize i started this by asking for permission to yap and then i just yapped anyway but i'm so curious to hear your thoughts b/c i rarely ever do rare-pairs for AA (aside from my gina & susato isms) soooo. also hi <333

HI MARE. ignore that it took me um normal amnt of time to answer this ok. but yes i agree! it's not my favorite iris ship but i think it's cute and like, iris likes a man who is just really really obsessed w and devoted to her evidently so i think they could hit it off. tbc my feelings on 1st game larry are like, neutral-to-positive, you can see why phoenix and edgeworth are endeared to him, but i do think as much as his character writing basically disintegrates across the trilogy i found him potentially most interesting in T&T. oh larry if only you were a good character. i'm imagining him visiting her in prison and the relationship developing from ther elike yayyyy it's cuteee..... but i admit i don't have a lot of deep thoughts about them & am perhaps in need of a T&T replay, so i'm sorry i don't have more to add....... (yay ginasusa mention 😊 r they that much of a rarepair? i guess the dgs yuri scene is a bit struggling and mostly populated by susahao as it is... someone needs to get on this stat!)

HI HI HI sorry for the dr thoughts but. sdr2 is the most frustrating piece of media i have ever encountered b/c the plot has so many inconsistencies and there are genuinely so many poor writing moments, both with characters and storyline and relationships. and yet within SDR2 is not only the most insane potential for a plot that haunts people (incl me) for years but also it has some of the most interesting and well-written characters within it. like the same game that is really bad at writing character grief is also able to come up with characters like hinata (one of the most compelling protagonists in a piece of media i've encountered), komaeda (one of the most interesting characters of all time), koizumi (one of my favorite characters in any piece of media and i'll stand by her forever), and then like so many others. how is sdr2 simultaneously a trainwreck of a game and also one of the most interesting and good pieces of media that i have literally not stopped thinking about for at this point eight years. isnt that so bonkers

ITS FUCKING BONKERRRSSS like one of the top games that really has no right being this good considering how bad it is everr 😭 please don’t apologize for dr thoughts do you know. how little anyone in my life cares about this damn game. it’s zero. my beautiful mutuals are all i have left and i need to scream somewhere about how elegantly sdr2 presents hinata as like this kind of normal boy with some hangups but who is overall very confident and strong willed and then reveals in the end that he is actually the most fucked up person in this cast by a surprisingly wide margin. he’s like if the universe had looked at komaeda and said “you know what actually you CAN be special. we DO choose you. have fun” and then he successfully psychically killed himself and all he got was superdepression and this cool tshirt. like i said i think the concept of hinata on his own isn’t that compelling (he’s a shinji!) but put into the context of how the game paces itself out w him, developing this tension of who he is without the player realizing, comparing and contrasting him with komaeda & the rest of the kids whose favorite activity is self sacrifice, and just how & when the game chooses to show its hand w him…….. it’s literally fucking goooood it’s fucking good

i feel like my opinion on the sdr2 cast (minus hinata komaeda nanami trio they are all so important to me) flips between being unimpressed and completely enamored, bc even for characters i don’t love or who have more consistently bad writing looked at w a wide scope (tsumiki my fucking beloved they did you so bad.), everyone gets these moments or scenes of just jawdropping dialogue writing so i can’t help but be like. waow <3 waow <3 it’s like sdr2 is TRYING to be bad but there’s this supernatural force dragging the lagging components forward and forcing it into competency like i genuinely can’t think of how it happened except divine intervention. like in terms of making a plot actually Move the way it needs to i admit kodaka is very good at what he does and it’s just. man.

also ugh yes it does rlly struggle with writing grief that’s exactly it i’ve been trying to articulate why it sometimes lacks that oomph but yeah. i miss you asahina aoi and ishimaru kiyotaka for. no reason in particular haha ☹️ but even so….. even so!!!!! it’s good!!!!! and not just in a way of it being fun to analyze after the fact (well maybe it is that a bit i remember being so put off by ch3 motive when i first read it but whatever) it’s genuinely rlly enjoyable to move thru and watch how the cogs turn & how it sets itself up!!!!! like the story structure itself is steeped in mystery convention where it’s so careful about what to say and when and it rlly rlly works

anyway i hope that made sense i am a bit sensory overloaded right now (loud sounds + strange smell + recovering from traumatic snap pea incident)

Summary:

After a minute or so of this person staring at the medicine while Tubbo stared at them, he starts to get a bit bored. So, he clears his throat, and says in a conversational voice, “They sell pretty damn good Tylenol here, don’t they?” They jump, clearly taken aback by Tubbo’s appearance. They blink at him once before nodding slowly, clearing their throat. “Isn’t, uh, most Tylenol the- the same everywhere?” -- Tubbo is an accidental part of a kind-of family, worn tennis shoes firmly planted on the sidelines as a ticking time clock mocks the day his stolen life will crumble, shoved under the floorboards of his best friend's attic. In the waiting process, he meets a seventeen year old severely lacking in both memory and effective hair dye, who defines himself as the spaces between notebook pages and part-time jobs. Like this, Tubbo meets Ranboo, who, despite everything, may be Tubbo's most worthwhile pit stop in his journey to survival yet. (Or, a high school AU in which finding home and staying afloat are two tasks you can't shoulder at once, but there are other people who will carry the world with you, if you can muster the bitter task of giving it up first.)

i have been deeply appreciating ur TGI posting and was wondering what ur fave songs off of it are !! - mare

HI MARE im free from academia for the day (FINALLY) so i can answer this yayayaayy

as of right now. and this is in album order And im about to list off like a good third of the album sorry in advance but: only girl living in la, dog years, letter to god 1974, letter to god 1983, darwinism, lonely is the muse, and life of the spider

first of all. only girl living in la is an INSANE way to start an album. Like i knew i was absolutely in for it seeing the track list and that we were Starting with a 6 minute long song i was like Oh she loves me specifically she knew id been tormented by songs that are 2 minutes long for too long. i dont think ive ever finished the first song on an album and been, like, scared to listen to the rest of it before (good thing)

dog years. i canteven say anything yet Like theres no words. probably one of my favorites out of my favorites

letter to god 1974 and letter to god 1983 are twins to me. (well triplets shoutout letter to god 1998 no disrespect to my girl its just the first two are my faves personally) Thank u halsey for addressing the "wanting to get really sick so people would pay attention to you" to "getting really sick and it turns out people kinda dont gaf if ur in ur 20s about it" pipeline

hometown- is anyone else trying so hard to escape their hometown or is it just me and halsey and gerard "i know im never getting out of belleville" way. also i love her voice on this one

darwinism- i was reading it as being about physical disability but apparently she said it was about neurodivergence either way is anybody else feeling ostracized from the rest of society or is it just me and halsey out here

lonely is the muse- INSANE FUCKING SONG vocally lyrically musically everything. when i found out there was gonna be a Whole Album and lonely is the muse was on it i realized i was going to die.and then i did. <3

life of the spider- i knew there was a tori amos song on the album and the one tori amos song im really familiar with is me and a gun so of course i was terrified .and i was right to be. love a song i cant listen to without having a panic attack one of my favorite genres. insanely haunting song i cant really listen to this one casually yet or possibly ever i have to like sit down and prepare. this morning i saw a spider in my bathroom and started crying. tomorrow more of the same. "favorite" not in the way where i listen to it a lot favorite in the way where i can barely listen to it at all

also one more thing i feel like in general the album is organized very well does that make sense. like the songs are in a specific order that is good and makes sense. only girl living in la -> ego -> dog years -> letter to god 1974 is an insane run of songs generally let alone first on the album but also it like. makes sense why theyre in that order. also darwinism -> lonely is the muse -> arsonist -> life of the spider i can say the same of. like yeah thats the exact order those songs should go in. this is really not a Shuffling Album to me at ALL theres a specific order they all go in and i really like that Bc half the time These Days it feels like everythings so focused on having 2 minute long songs with 15 second clips that blow up on tiktok that its always nice to have an album thats like. Ok thankgod they actually give a fuck about this and its not optimized for social media analytics

thank u for reading My essay ^___^<3 u sent this 5 hours ago when i was working on my school stuff and i waslike oh thank god i get to talk about music later. A little treat for meeee to rewind and such.And then immediately i wrote A lot of sentences but, like, for fun this time so it counts as Rewinding
