Holy hell, I’ve finally sat down and finished the Skyward Flight novellas and I’ve just got to say... I love these slugs so much they are doing so much and they deserve all the caviar in the world no questions asked.

#I loved vibing inside FM’s head for a while. Seeing how other people in Spin’s flight have learned to cope from the inside is great #and I enjoyed Rig getting some wonderful moments to shine #Cuna... keep being you I guess #aaaargh and getting to see some more planets? Yes. Please. #that was excellent love it 10/10 holy hell #I want to sit in the slug room and talk to them they just seem like so much fun #sad we don’t have the next book NOW but I guess it’ll show up when we’re ready for it #and I’ve been waiting on TLM for so long that I still don’t know that I’ve accepted it’s coming out #I don’t know what I’ll do next #maybe read the next two Locke Lamora books since I finished Lies earlier this week #non-cosmere #cytoverse #skyward flight

Thinking about Intergalactic politics and how even the name of the Superiority denotes the primary issue with it. Superiority, considering yourself better than others, better than outsiders. Just, ugh.

So, as Cuna keeps saying in Skyward flight, the Superiority is a bunch of diverse races living together in... relative harmony? I know I am not saying it as good as they did, but they have a point that it is a great aspect that they have. The problem is that it sort of ends there.

Everyone gets pissed off at the term lesser species, because why the heck wouldn't you despise being called lesser, being called inferior? This is my main issue with the Superiority as a government. Ideals that sound excellent to most, that of peace and living in harmony with one another, that have worked well when taken to the extreme with your people, you are suddenly introducing to all these alien races with different dispositions and degrees of inclination towards following it, and are telling them, you cannot join us, or be a part of our cool kids club, unless you do everything we like as perfectly as we do.

Okay, I'm coming back to this after far too long and don't remember where I was going with it, but I like this point and wanted to wrap it up by saying one more thing. The Humans from Detritus may be far from perfect in the intergalactic sphere, and are just stumbling along as they get introduced to it, but I love how they do indeed seem to be trying. They aren't trying to be superior. They aren't trying to press their ideals on anyone.

Oh, wait. That was the point I was going for, I remember now. The superiority pushes their ideals of peace and non-aggressiveness on everyone else. Which are ideals that are all well and good, but... they come from the diones (correct me if I'm wrong on any of this I'm operating off of memory) that evolved on a planet without any predators. Other species from planets with harsher conditions and whatnot obviously had to evolve differently to even survive. They claim to be inclusive and inviting to all species of intelligent life... but then they dictate what those species can and cannot do. I don't know if I'm adequately capturing my thoughts, but... this is just so frustrating.

Then compare it to the humans (back to my earlier point before I got distracted). They're just trying to survive. Yes, it is NICE to have interstellar communication and trade and travel with various species, but... that's thriving. Surviving comes first. And yes, maybe humans began wars back in the day. There are going to be wounds there that need healing, much like with what began as they established alliances in ReDawn and Evershore. But the superiority was in the wrong as well, deciding to absolutely destroy an entire race.

I... keep losing focus. Obviously there's a lot of things about all of this that is so complicated, but the humans are trying to navigate all of this for the first time, when they haven't even interacted with anyone outside of their own people in decades. Beyond the lifespan of even their oldest people. So they aren't perfect, not by any means. But when they are making their alliances, they are alliances. They are on equal terms with the Kitsen and the Ur'Dail. And they may be struggling but they are trying, from the right direction, unlike the superiority.

Doing it for the right reasons, not to have a monopoly on power. Approaching them on equal terms and taking their strengths and weaknesses where they're at instead of demanding that they meet their standards in order to join them. Just the contrast between Defiant and the superiority. How to do things wrong with a facade of being good or... how to at least try to make things right.

#skyward #cytoverse #skyward flight #okay I started this post back in november but I actually got this book for christmas and happened to run across this post so I finished it #this turned out way longer than I thought it would #ALSO. so sorry if I got any details wrong november is also when I last read it and that's just long enough for the details to get fuzzy. #also there's at least one detail from what I remember from cytonic back in february so that's even fuzzier

Currently Reading...

Starsight - Brandon Sanderson

This took me so long to read! A third of the month is already gone, and I'm nowhere near where I thought I would be. I've really got to pick up the pace, or I won't hit my monthly goal, let alone make it through my Sanderson reading list!

I really enjoyed this, though, I'm so glad I decided to start with the rest of the Cytoverse. But such an inconvenient ending! I finished it just as I had to start my shift, and all I wanted to do was open the next book and get cracking! I just know I'm going to be furious once I finish the next book and have to wait until next year for the fourth book.

In true Sanderson style, I did not see any of this coming. I was expecting the 'hyperdrive' would be using captive cytonics or something, I would never have guessed it was Doomslug! And I love that Jorgen can hear them, and found their little colony!

I can't believe how little we saw of Detritus and Skyward Flight. I sort of thought she'd be on Starsight for maybe a quarter of the book, and then be back home to fight, but I probably should have guessed seeing as it's the literal name of the book.

I did miss the camaraderie of Skyward Flight. Her new flight was nice and all, but it just wasn't the same. We barely even saw most of her original flightmates. And I missed seeing her relationship with Jorgen develop, and I loved his little interlude chapters, I really hope we get more of him in the next book.

I love that she managed to communicate with a delver, and that it wasn't even really an enemy in the end, it just didn't understand what was going on. I'm really interested to see where this goes, if they're going to continue to be a force that needs fighting, or if it's just going to be a political battle with the superiority factions.

Also, I proudly noticed immediately that Cuna smiled even though their species doesn't, but stupidly thought it was an expression of aggression, rather than them trying to put Spensa at ease.

And I still don't actually know if the "M" in M-Bot stands for "Mushroom". I hope he gets better soon, and I'm so curious to find out what the beef is with AIs. Oh my god, if he turns out to be a bad guy, I'm going to flip.

Nuevo horario para el canal

Nuevo horario para el canal. Al final quiero jugar el re;kinder en vez de la cuna de la ruina, ya que es un juego que me apetece más en estos momentos.

El juego es cortito, así que creo que me lo puedo terminar si o si la semana que viene.

Y bueno, cuando termine the legend of zelda link's awakening HD quiero empezar el zelda skyward sword, que es un zelda que quiero traer al canal si o si.

Ya luego de re;kinder subiré algún juego corto de Charon por ir rellenando hueco hasta la salida de little goody two shoes, que ese juego sale el 31 de octubre, así traigo también un juego para halloween.

Eso si, ese día tengo dentista, por lo que el directo será por la mañana en vez de por la tarde/noche.

Quiero ir trayendo más videojuegos de los que me gustan, ya que es algo que me llena.

Y cuando salga el segundo DLC de pokémon púrpura, lo subiré. Si me coincide con el zelda skyward sword, me da igual, ya me organizaré todo para ir trayendo ambos juegos al mismo tiempo.

Y bueno, si empezara a trabajar en noviembre tendré que pasar los directos para la tarde, pero bueno, es lo que me toca supongo.

Thank you (and sorry) for reading that so I do not have to. Now I can go about my days in peace able to ignore this novella's existence.

LMAO omg the meme... you are welcome 😔✌ only things u need know plot-wise are

Jorgen is starting to get his cytonic powers to work (💞💞😊😊☺😁😁😘😇😇)

There r multiple types of cytonic slugs yellow = teleportation, red = let out explosions of force, purple = allow FTL communication (if this all sounds a little silly it's bc it is but i am willing to forgive it) but they havent figured out how to get them to work without jorgen directly sending cytonic messages to them

Skyward flight rescued Cuna from attack and is now providing refuge to them & some of their staff(?) on detritus

Detritus got control of the defense platforms that cover & protect the planet to defend against Superiority attacks but still no control of those platform guns/tech

OH and jorgen briefly saw spensa in the Nowhere that was wild also poor boy 💔

If you notice that despite this being an fm novella there is no crucial information involving fm. well.

#goblinpat #i feel like honored someone made a meme for me lmaoo #but yeah sunreach is literally a nightmare happy to suffer. wont lie i barely read the last couple chapters i just read parts with jorgen in #them #sunreach #skyward #asks #also one of the only good lines was when fm tells jorgen youre our only hope and jorgen responds spensa was a better hope. like ouch 😭

“When a planet-destroying Delver suddenly appears in the sky of Detritus and vanishes just as suddenly, FM knows that the last free human society got lucky. Her Skyward Flight companion, Spensa, figured out how to draw this Delver away, but it won’t be so easy next time.

The forces of the Galactic Superiority will be back—and if the Defiant Defense Force can’t figure out a way to escape the planet, humanity’s destruction is only a matter of time. Spensa’s mission to infiltrate the Superiority unveiled the secret to their hyperdrives—a cytonic slug species called the Taynix. Now FM’s flightleader, Jorgen, has found a large group of Taynix hiding in the caverns far below Detritus’s surface.

FM and Jorgen must work together with the engineer Rig to awaken the mysterious alien Alanik and unlock the powers of the Taynix, or humanity will be trapped. With Spensa’s friend Minister Cuna of the Superiority stranded at the outpost of Sunreach, they need to figure out how to rescue them—or the Superiority government will be in the sole clutches of those who want to wipe out Detritus once and for all.”

This takes place between Starsight and Cytonic. It definitely feels a bit different than Brandon Sanderson’s writing style, but that could be because of it being him and another author. I still enjoyed this too and liked that they took the information the team learned in Starsight and was trying to figure things out with it in Sunreach. I loved all the slugs and their personalities and what they could do. It was very interesting and definitely important for Cytonic and Defiant.

Summary: When a planet-destroying Delver suddenly appears in the sky of Detritus and vanishes just as suddenly, FM knows that the last free human society got lucky.

Rating: 5/5

Review:

Vile ships of vileness? Sounds like someone is related to Breeze with his evil force of evil.

“Jorgen dropped the slug and jumped back as ribbons of red opened up on his forearms and cheeks and across his nose.”—Page 54

Scars on his forearms? PLOT TWIST: JORGEN IS THE LORD OF SCARS! JORGEN HAS BEEN THAIDAKAR THIS ENTIRE TIME!!! Also stop the Jorgen abuse.

I really want to know what songs FM is listening to.

“I feel I should tell you that I now have a slug on each shoulder and three on my lap, all seeming vaguely uncomfortable that I’m touching them. I blame you, FM.”—Page 126

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. God I can’t believe we have to wait until December for the Jorgen novella. Crimes!

“‘Yes, actually,’ I said. ‘We designed an experiment.’

‘Is that what they’re calling it now.’

‘Shut your mouth,’”—Page 148

Jorgen is best boy fight me.

WE’VE MADE CONTACT WITH CUNA!!!

If you told me this novella ended with a giant tentacle star monster, I wouldn’t have believed you and yet here we are.

RETROGRESSION Vol. 1: ¡Rockea con las melodías clásicas NES en REVERSA!

New Post has been published on http://aratablog.com/?p=25632

RETROGRESSION Vol. 1: ¡Rockea con las melodías clásicas NES en REVERSA!

Grant Henry de Metroid Metal también conocido por el nombre de “Stemage” estrena un rock EP llamado RETROGRESSION Vol. 1 con temas de Super Mario Bros, Punch Out !, Ghosts ‘n’ Goblins y Tetris al revés.

El pasado 6 de julio desde California el fundador y guitarrista de Metroid Metal: Grant Henry “Stemage”, saco a la luz su nuevo proyecto llamado RETROGRESSION Vol. 1, un EP juguetón que sale con canciones clásicas NES realizadas en sentido inverso. Las canciones favoritas de los fans de Super Mario Bros, Punch Out !, Ghosts ‘n’ Goblins y Tetris han sido arregladas en retroceso junto con versiones invertidas que se reproducen al revés para que los oyentes puedan escuchar las melodías originales. Y si aun sigues confundido te informo que RETROGRESSION Vol 1. ya está disponible en Bandcamp:

RETROGRESIÓN Vol. 1 en Bandcamp.

(No sé  a ustedes, pero en verdad me gusta como se oye la guitarra *w*/.)

  Comentarios de Stemage sobre Retrogression

-“La mayoría de los fans de Zelda ya saben que la canción de The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Swordis es la canción de cuna de Zelda al revés”-, comenta el arreglista Stemage. -“RETROGRESSION Vol. 1 es un experimento musical siguiendo esta misma idea, manteniendo los arreglos limpios con sólo cuatro instrumentos similares a los cuatro canales utilizables en el NES: dos guitarras, bajo y tambores”.

Parece ser que más bandas sonoras icónicas pueden aparecer en las próximas entregas de la serie RETROGRESSION. Si te interesa seguir este proyecto mantente informado en el sitio oficial de Stemage para las actualizaciones.

Sigue a Stemage en Twitter, Facebook, SoundCloud y YouTube.
