I swore to myself that I'd never do this "fandom" nonsense again, but what a shame, because here I am. Here's to a stale new beginning through this side blog scriptorium where I will attempt to make words happen, hopefully better than I used to in the era of TG/TG:re and SnK meta. Main blog is elsewhere, which I may sometimes follow and reblog from.

I'll likely be most active deep into the night when my brain is somehow both halfway to screaming for help and calling that a proper flow state. Or I might not be active at all. Either way, nothing to see here.

I always figured I'm the odd one out for not liking that one official Six GBF Fes cosplayer, so I feel a smidgen vindicated now that I know he's into genAI given some weird JoJo post he made a few days ago.

What do you mean we're getting another land-of-frost-and-snow expansion and I, after all of these years, have yet to get over the FIRST one...!

i feel. like on a fundamental level. i do not understand x reader fic. i am not exactly opposed to it because let a thousand blossoms bloom etc. but like. i genuinely don’t get it. it seems like the exact opposite of how i engage with fiction. like the whole point is that i’m not in there. i don’t wanna be in there. if i’m in there it’s going to be very stressful.

Let it be known that if Limited (Grand) Six drops, I am going to perish.

idk why but for some reason i'm so much more interested in when a character knows that the person they are in love with loves them back but still feels like they can't act on it because personal issues and/or plot reasons than a character thinking its unrequited.

"theyll hate you for this" "but theyll be alive" is THE juiciest thing to me

[honeyscomet]

i will ensure you stay alive above all else. even if what i do to make it happen is horrendous. even if it violates all your wishes or moral principles. even if you can never look at me the same way again, even if you hate me for it. because at least if you hate me it means youre alive

one thing about me is I will always enjoy a special and miserable little man

You’re too deep in your darkness — you’ve forgotten how bright the world can be.

I love characters who are extremely hypercompetent and simultaneously massive losers

No lie, Cygames going unapologetically public with their foray into genAI is beyond tone-deaf that it's comical more than it's depressing. It'd also be pure idiocy to assume the best of it, to give them the benefit of the doubt based on their active hiring of "image generators" at this very moment.

I stuck around Granblue for as long as I have in the years since the disillusionment and disappointment started setting in with its every fumble and stumble (summer lottery, you shall not be forgotten), on top of the woefully underdeveloped and inconsistent worldbuilding unbefitting a game that's a corner away from twelve, because it really is the only world where Six lives. If it all goes to sloppy shit, it'd be hard to leave and even harder to stay...

The secret to a long lasting relationship is finding someone who hates leaving their comfort zone and then wiggle your way in there. You wiggle your way right inside their comfort zone and then you're there. By the time they notice you're there, they'll just sigh like "oh great, now there's a creature in here", but they don't want to move out of their comfort zone, and tossing you out of there would now alter the air pressure and constitution of the comfort zone too abruptly and it would pop like a bubble.

That's how you keep a relationship. You weasel your way inside someone's comfort zone and make yourself an essential component of it, so now they, too, will have to make sure that your dumb ass stays in there. Their comfort zone now has a fucking creature in it, and it's not going to be the same comfort zone if the creature isn't there.
