Challenge #04020-K002: Just Use a Whetstone
It's before humans met their first aliens officially, the ship had engine problems and was forced to land, fortunately safely. Doubly fortunate, not only were the humans very friendly, but very handy and took directions well, especially the kids. Repairs might take a bit, but at least it was a cozy experience! -- Anon Guest
[AN: This would have to happen on one of the Deep-Time colonies]
Good news, their attempts to invite alien life to their new world had worked. Sort of. Bad news, the invitee had crashed in a remote location, relatively middle-of-nowhere on a colony world where even the natives were struggling to establish what they needed.
As one might expect, everyone was roughing it.
The language barrier was enormous, but pantomime could do many great things. The people of Planet Contact learned GalStand Simple over the passage of months. Months in which many mistakes made things more than a little rough.

It is tempting to speculate that Imhotep thought to himself one day ‘If I put another mastaba on top of the first one and then another on top of that, until I reach six, then my Pharaoh will be much more important than his old Dad’, but excavations of Zoser’s Step Pyramid reveal that many changes in design occurred during its construction.
First, an unusual square mastaba was built in the unusual material of stone. Then it was added to, in various stages, until it became rectangular, then built upwards to become a four-step pyramid, then extended on two sides and upwards to become a six-step pyramid, which was its final form.
All of this indicates that there was no sudden infusion of new ideas from ‘somewhere else’ that suddenly changed ‘primitive’ Egyptians into brilliant engineers and stonemasons, a theory beloved of the more irrational speculators on matters Egyptian. It is clear that Imhotep was an unusually intelligent man but it is equally clear that his ideas did not spring from mysterious sources.
His learning curve is inscribed in stone.

pyramid game is such a perfect little drama for the sapphics because you've got a whole demented psychological thriller going on about high school girls creating a whole fake social class system that results because one bored little princess bitch thought it'd be funny, and you've got all these dynamics that can only be boiled down to some kind of love story because like. ye lim and eun jeong's dynamic? the princess idol and her athlete bodyguard. soo ji and ja eun's dynamic? the cold mastermind and the compassionate heart. even whatever da yeon and seol ha have got going on? typical hitter and loyal dog dynamic. the list can go on.

If we assume that Alan wrote himself into the Entity's Realm and wasn't just sucked up by the Fog then there's a real possibility that, out of all the Survivors in there game, he's got the greatest chance of escape. Cuz why would he write himself INTO a situation that's (arguably) WORSE than the Dark Place without writing a way out? Unless the story started coming true before he could finish it (probably thanks to the Entity itself) and he got sucked up immediately after typing "so I went to a Worse Place"
But then if we assume that the Entity did just Grab him with the Fog, poor Alan just got magically teleported out of Hell (the Dark Place) and into Super Hell (the Realm). Poor bastard.

Felt inspired to write a lil bit of my headcanon for Anabel's ranking amongst trainers:
She's certainly not THE best, but amongst the best. Since her Battle Facility days, she's around a champion level. Which might sound rare, but champion ranked trainers can have all sorts of ranges that might make for great disparity between them all.
Cynthia is one of the strongest, while Honey (Mustard's wife) is somewhere in the middle, and several nameless NPCs that go into the Frontier/Facility challenges are on the lower/middle side.
I'd say Anabel is a mid/high-mid tier Champion level trainer. She reached that title in her Salon Maiden days, then fell and was hospitalized for some time. Her memories were scrambled, so she thought she would never bond with her Pokemon again.
Those fears were quickly disregarded. Being around her Pokemon during her healing allowed for some lost memories to clear up. Her bonds never disappeared-- ANABEL never truly disappeared... But she had to accept she was a new Anabel.
Her battle focus became more Interpol related rather than competitive for some time, but this led to her having a different perspective on her Pokemon. She suffered some losses, but she's not pressed on becoming the best-- only to study and study and study. She is analytical, and does have strategies depending on whether she is testing a recruit, in a mission, or in a full force tournament.
Anabel is also shown to be keeping up with the times and putting G-Max on her Snorlax or Z-Crystals on her beasts or Mega-Evolution on her powerhouses. I don't think she canonly has all of these... But at the very least I like to consider Mega-Latios, Z-Move Raikou, and G-Max Snorlax as canon. Hell, I love that Masters Anabel is a defensive/support Snorlax to synergize specifically with Looker's strategy while Snorlax has an offensive movepool when she's solo.
So Anabel isn't worse than who she was in Gen 3 but... Different. A little bit more experimental and introspective. She watches a battle carefully in her animations: arms crossed and snapping her fingers when she commands her Pokemon with grace.
I guess for me the first SUMO Anabel battle, even though her team was level 61 across the board, gave me trouble the first time I battled her. And I was like "FUCK POST GAME IS GONNA BE HARD IM GONNA DO SOMETHING ELSE FOR A WHILE" because I had to use Solgaleo to get her to stop beating my ass LOL. So if she was going a bit easy on me here... I can't imagine how she is in the Battle Tree.
She's the ONLY special character to be a 1/7 rarity. She barely appears compared to the others. I think for me, that's a sign Anabel still got it so many years later...

Day 30: Favorite game
This is actually a redraw of a very very old drawing (like, 15 years old) I'd been meaning to redraw it for so long, made at least two attempts that never got close to finished.

You will be called liberator.
#baldur's gate 3#baldur's gate#oc: jewel#aberrations#mine: dnd#keep thinking about the much more interesting narrative buried in this game in bits and pieces....#like. the very first choice in the game is reacting to a newborn creature calling for help#and i love that you're rewarded for helping and showing compassion#but imagine if the game took you to task for choosing cruelty towards a helpless creature just because it's a ''monster''#and avoided the Compassion For Me But Not For Thee dissonance of like#you run around asking people for help because of the looming threat of being turned into a mind flayer#you help so many people crushed under the great wheel of power and violence#but there's hardly a real pause to acknowledge that every single mind flayer you see was someone before that#was forced or tricked into that pyramid scheme#and if they escape they can only exist as themselves in the shadows#i love these little scenes we do get but god. act 3 and the Cooler Netherbrain Confrontation in my head is like#what if we tweaked it just a bit#and made it sizzle#anyway miss jewel has reached the top of the OC Favoritism Chart along with miss kit. HER <3#what if you were a nihilist charlatan monk beholden to nothing and no one and worn down by your long elven lifespan#who learned to feel compassion again through curiosity and sympathy towards ''monsters''#maybe the only person to ever willingly become illithid because you understood that change is not evil and the ''self'' is energy in flux#what if you rewrote the narrative that everyone else tried to sell#instead of domination and suffering you made it into an act of triumph and care for reviled creatures who didn't ask to be made#an ultimate act of charlatan-ism too <3#someone tells her 'this is how things are' and jewel says 'i think not actually <3' and gets away with it
