if you are genuinely out there claiming that gale "succeeded" in everything he "wanted" by becoming a god and that's why it's a good ending for him, you truly are a testament to the slow and steady death of media literacy congrats lmao

#the entire boat scene in act iii beats you over the head that this is #perceived lack of self-worth and helplessness in the face of death and loss of faith #and indulging him in this is indulging means indulging his first impulse and instinct in response to #the first lifeline he sees for himself in years #unless you can be his lifeline instead #as a friend and as a lover #but that's all okay #it's totally okay for him to sacrifice everything including himself in a bid for power #because he still loves your tav sooo much when he ascends right #he loves them so much he couldn't contact them in six month to let them know he survived ascension lmao #jfc larian really crossed some wires bc the cutscene is pretty i can't #also if your bar for a happy ending for a character is if your tav gets a hug and some kissies while some nice music plays #then maybe you should be careful throwing words around like 'narrow-minded' and 'black/white' lol #ch: gale dekarios #vg: baldur's gate 3 #series: baldur's gate #text: personal #fandom critical #tbd

To everyone saying they didn't like the last chapter, do you know why suddenly adachitoka announced the ending when none of it felt complete at the time?

I mean i definitely dont know for sure, but its important to realize its likely the manga sales, they dropped off at some point so adachitoka had to wrap it up and not only that they have a many health issues cause hiatus over the years.

I know a majority of the fandom on tumblr reads fastmoons scans, i know i do and i know the economy is shit and lots of us cant even buy the volumes in support even so im not blaming anyone.

But you gotta cut the authors some slack here, they probably had so much left to tell and write and they probably wanted to explain the plotholes and fill in more info.

But because it was the end..they wanted to end it in a happy way and i believe thats just fine, i just finished reading it and im content with how it ended considering the circumstances.

Its okay to not like the ending i guess, but dont let the reason why be because of something the authors couldnt control.

#noragami #noragami manga #noragami spoilers #yato #hiyori iki #yukine #adachitoka #ch 109 #goodbye noragami #edit: fuck it #adachitoka was trying to end this the same way it started with shenanigans cause it must of made them feel better about something- #they created ending...who the fuck cares how yato was saved..its on brand with this manga for funny shit to happen #who fucking cares if extra time was spent on nora..she was literally looked down on by many people in the fandom early on #she deserved some extra love #its fucking annoying watching people shit on the last chapter #like its the last bit of noragami a series WE HAVE ALL LOVED over the years #and your treating it terribly???? #the authors did what they could with what they had and thry are real people who did theyre best #dont be fucking assholes

"By the way..." Rook starts, pausing in his inhaling of his food, "What major did you go for?"

"Oh, [major]."

He nods once, "You know, you never mentioned it back in high school."

"I didn't think I'd be here." You shrugged, playing at casual. "But here I am."

out of all of the interactions with Rook in the demo it was probably the most ‘ouch’ moment for me😭 like I get it MC is mentally constipated but Rook didn’t even asked about it in high school even in a ‘what if’ manner like😭 I know he had his reasons probably but like idk😭 best friend my ass😭

LMAO I didn't intend it to read like that (it was more like 'the like 2 times we talked college you only shrugged and that was that') but I feel like the point still stands either way

Prying into it would have meant Feelings and a serious conversation and Rook couldn't have that ajsis

#em answers #ch: rook #rook and mc's friendship is always wild to me like #I know all the awful things that have happened to you and I've seen you at your worst #but i don't know you're favorite color or the sound of you laughing genuinely #I know what hurts you but I don't know how to take care of you

I remember once someone started yelling at me about a paper I wrote for an anthro class and posted here. It was about racism in Star wars and they were big mad that I'd cited legends rather than current canon about the Ming Po being an example of racism.

Yer, is there going to be any flavor text if we pick a female or male mc? Are they treated differently?

jfksjk some flavor text will be affected but the idea of coding in sexism makes me 😑 so not really! the differences i can think of is the type of poetry tang bai quotes at the mc when you get hit on, and madam yeo treats you a little nicer if you're not a m!mc but that's it i think!

#anon #ch: mc #if ur trans you get an extra scene later down the line #but tbh #nobody really cares what's in your pants #they care how hard you punch LOL

tag someone you want to know and/or some of your besties.

I was tagged by @fourth-quartet 😊 Thank you!!

favourite colour: Gray but I'm currently in a brown phase

last song: I've got recently reacquainted with Beginner by AKB48 😄

last series: The Kidnapping Day. It was a lot more wholesome than the name suggests.

last movie: Saw X (surprisingly also a lot more wholesome than you'd expect????)

sweet/savoury/spicy: Sweet :3

currently watching:

Koisenu Futari

Chains of Heart

The Golden Girls (season 1)

Love in the Air (2nd rewatch)

other stuff I watched this year: Not listing all of it here (I've never watched so much stuff as I did in 2023), but I'll mention the ones that I enjoyed watching the most from each month so far (*not including rewatches):

JAN: Wednesday

FEB: GAP

MAR: Not Me

APR: Tick, Tick... Boom!

MAY: Utsukushii Kare

JUN: Tale of the Nine-Tailed 1938

JUL: Takin' Over The Asylum

AUG: Marry My Dead Body

SEP: Utsukushii Kare: Eternal

OCT: The Sandman

shows I dropped this year/didn't finish: I barely remember the ones I watched till the very end 🤡 But ok, let me see...

Eve (dropped after one episode; Rich People and their Rich People Problems™, I think was the reason)

A few straight GMMTV shows that I didn't really catch the name (I. Well. I just. I just couldn't make myself give a fuck, ok 😔)

+ Currently deliberating whether or not I should drop Chains of Heart. All the subtitles I've found are lacking in terms of coherence, and the story itself is already not the most straightforward, so I can only hope I'm understanding what's going on at all? 😀 And I'm also not feeling the main couple from either the present nor the past (? I suspect they are the same (but I may never know))... HOWEVER, I like the acting of the main, and the Thai scenario that is not Bangkok for once. That's always refreshing. And sometimes the cinematography is pretty too... Decisions, decisions...

currently listening to: Back for More by TXT & Anitta (I went after the link for it and distractedly searched for "banger" instead of the title 😆)

currently reading: Codename Villanelle (it's a small book but I'm. ..struggle)

current obsession: I'm not obsessing over anything at the moment 😟☹😫 Have been too busy with mundane adult life problems (therefore, as you can imagine, I'm just about going up the walls here :))

i just saw this vader-worship fan sticker on the back of someone’s car which you know funny enough as it is like i think you missed the overall message of the films here buddy but anyway it was describing him as a ‘war master’ and ‘fierce leader’ and i was standing there like

anakin?? you’re talking about anakin skywalker?? got his hand cut off in a duel, crashed half his ships, was one third of the disaster trio, Drama Queen who couldn’t control one (1) single emotion, literally spent a decade marshalling the imperial forces to obsessively hunt obi wan, lost the death star to his first-day-on-the-job son??

Will possession be an imminent part of the story or will we be able to stop it from ever happening?

It'll happen briefly in the beginning (if you read the prologue, there's a kinda similar scene in chapter one), and there is one key scene way later on that has to happen for Reasons, but outside of that it's dependent on your choices.

You have a series of stats called 'Chains' and one of them is The Voice's Possession. If you keep this low, then you're fine. In the mid ranges you'll get things like them moving your body out of the way, directing your attention at things, etc. High possession is when they can directly take over if they wanted to. This really just allows the option to show up for you to offer that to them if you wanted/needed to. Usually.

Resisting their control doesn't affect their romance/friendship stats either most of the time. How high it is just decides the dynamic between you two.

#em answers #ch: ??? #BA: structure #they're pretty careful about your boundaries but they're also still the villain of the story #there are also different consequences for it being high or low (besides the obvious lol) #tbh telling a character off or that they're being an asshole or being stupid doesn't impact friend/love stats because #sometimes they ARE and mc deserves to get mad at them lol

#blog #fucking whiteknuckling it rn trying to resist the urge to engage with shipping discourse after seeing some of the worst takes imaginable #the worst part about seeing people say its bad to ship ch*lch*ck with characters who initially thought he was a kid #is knowing that if ch*lch*ck himself knew someone thought that about him he would want to rip them to shreds with his teeth #like youre saying that even if other people find out that he IS an adult #theyll NEVER be able to see him as anything but a child #and like. i dont say things like this lightly. but if ch*lch*ck were real and you implied that to him he would hate you #ALSO youre implying that the other person (in this case specifically s*nsh*) is incapable of changing how he sees other people #when that is CLEARLY not the case #hhhhhhhh anyways i want to write a fic from s*nsh*'s pov #where after the hippogriff chapter when s*nsh* finally realizes that ch*lch*ck is an adult his whole perspective of him changes #and he starts noticing little things about him that he'd previously been blind to #wrinkles‚ grey hair‚ body hair‚ how much he swears‚ his love of alcohol‚ the ways he protects and takes care of other people #and then eventually starts to realize that he loves him

how do y'all typically handle being asked for pronouns in a meeting/server/whatever if like. you want to indicate that no pronouns used for you will feel particularly bad or offensive but most people go with she/her and that is genuinely fine; I'm not hiding any negative feelings about it. but being asked to choose she/her myself *does* feel weird. I'm not like attached to this lol. We'll see how I feel in 10 years, you know? maybe they'll have updated gender and I'll see a new model I really like. Now how to put all that into a canned phrase I can deploy

#well and *then* you have to detangle how much of your annoyance with the whole thing is just spite #because people want me to be feminine reward me for etc then i'm like. well now i am not doing it!!! #i was neutral on this before but now that you've made it a thing maybe i will dress 'like a man' whatever that even means! #i could have lived my whole life happily wearing dresses but other people started assigning me other random characteristics based on them #now i'm not doing it!!!! #i actually don't care if i'm a woman but now that you've specifically made a point of how u think i should be one maybe i will question it! #if not for t*rfs and the ch*rch i would never have bothered but now that you've brought it to my attention
