(Bg3 spoilers)

So you know how one of the tenets of Shar’s church is “Love is a lie. Only hate endures.” But Shart is so desperately hopeful that Shar loves her….. then Shar goes on to demand DJ Shart’s “whole heart” …. Shart’s line to a romanced Tav that goes “please don’t call it love” or something or the other. Do you think this is something she demands of every DJ or another god’s favorite princess thing

(Coughs also something something Shar wants Sharts whole heart uhhhh um. Shadow Heart ???) (I am forcefully expelled from the stage)

moment of silence for every single dj in a loveless relationship rip...

I THINK THE IDEA IS LIKE, (imo) their worship of the goddess should supersede any kind of romantic entanglement which makes sense but i think shart is just exceptionally zealous (overcompensating, but for what?? :)c) about her worship and thus is super dramatic about it bc shes gods favourite princess

we have exhibit b nocturne who is So Normal by comparison

#bg3 spoilers #q&a #you cant tell me nocturne is the only normal person trappedi n the cult even if the game doesnt show us #its hard to figure out the deal with the dark justiciars bc the timeline is so wack #youre telling me that the battle for reithwin was fought ~80 yrs ago with an army of dark justiciars #but by the time of the game theyre like #a lost tradition #in a universe where some creatures live for a millenia or more #ALSO WHY IS THERE AN ARMY OF DJS WHEN THEYRE SUPPOSEDLY SHARS RIGHT HAND ELITE WHO WORK ALONE AND IN THE SHADOWS??? #WERE THERE NO OTHER SOLDIERS IN KETHERICS ARMY BESIDES DARK JUSTICIARS #i mean this is fine its just dndisms retroactively silly puttys in the lore #anyways if dark justiciar rly are the small handpicked elite then yeah it would make sense for me that they THROW THEIR HEART AWAY FOR SHAR #its just funny that shadowheart has to take you aside and put it in those words specifically #like she needs you to know she cant love u bc shes bad at lying and despite everything she still cares :''')

Idk how to explain it, but seeing Voice of the Hunted going from fearing the Princess to wanting to help after seeing her really hits hard. He spent the whole Beast and most of The Den chapter desperately trying to prevent you from being eaten or killed by her

But when he sees what she's become, he feels sympathy for her. Despite his previous fear, he wants to help her instead

#slay the princess #the den #the voice of the hunted #i have such a hard time explaining this game tbh #ik whats going on but idk how to put it into words #i love hunted and stubborn easily my among my favorites w/ paranoid and contrarian #makes me think of werewolves #i mean shes clearly a giant kitty cat but idk makes me think of werewolves for some reason #like theyre big scary beasts but when you truly understand whats happening you feel bad for them #though that also depends on the iteration of werewolves as well

#art #ive literally just been treating this game as a library simuator #i walk from bookseller to bookseller opening up all of their books #vivecs sermons are either a highlight or the point at which i stop reading #ive been trying to convince the ordinators that imitation is the highest form of flattery but it hasnt been working #let me wear your helmets please theyre so funny.. #posting morrowind in 2024 isnt a cry for help but youre not wrong to be concerned. #morrowind #almalexia #vivec #im going to explain the chitin armor give me a moment #so the bonewalker nerevar on the shrines is adorable and it was only after drawing it however many times that i realized #it looked relatively close to a modified chitin armor #and so i modified chitin armor a few times and this was probably the cutest result #i also know i drew almalexia relatively pristine and untouched by years and vivec not so much but my thought process was #vivecs role as if not a favorite then the most accessible divine or the most “hands on” in a manner of speaking #acting in ways visible to the general population or actions explicitly brought to their attention #like not that almalexia isnt doing anything she is #but the dissemination of information regarding that is very different etc etc etc #anyways to a certain extent a god is the face on a shrine or in art or upon a statue or carving #but vivecs presence is interwoven with the geography of vvardenfell especially and his actions and writings with pubished materials #and the arts and culture and customs etc etc etc #so to me the face of a god you know and feel a commonality with or a god that walks alongside you is a face you would recognize #and vivec is already otherworldly looking enough #the simple mark of the years on his skin in some way grounding him in reality felt more right #that and i think the ways in which he and almalexia care about outward appearance are slightly different- they prioritize different things #and the ways they present outward power and their embodiment of their respective attributes share some similarities as they both have that #important preoccupation with physical power and physical strength to a certain degree #oh my god nobody read this i am yapping so bad. #tes

Enstars sure is an experience. Did I miss anything?

#are you guys all okay? i definitely am not okay #this is not the type of media that i usually go for yet it is EXACTLY the type of media that i would like #so many gaps so many stories WAY TOO MUCH READING I DONT HAVE THE TIME #i know i missed a lot because ive only watched the anime and read the main music story up to ch 4 of the second part #and i have read some events stories that were free #and maybe one or two outside from translations #but like thats it #this is like reading orv and getting hit with its deep metas on human life and the importance of stories #but instead im being clobbered by the most deranged storylines known to man (and again. i read ORV and am a bsd fan) #this isnt fantasy but there is nothing realistic about enstars and i unfortunately am attached #every day i spiral into east asian media that gives me an aneurysm #bsd -> orv -> link click -> enstars....i wanna say they keep getting more unhinged but theyre all unhinged in different ways #anyway please help me.... #enstars #ensemble stars #fandom spamdom #stuff i say #i will admit i am mostly into the game for the stories #a consistent gamer i am not #but to unlock the stories ill push back the animes i have to catch up on etc etc #again. please help me.... #edit: updated to remove queerbaiting because apparently i dont know whats going on

What if you found out that aliens had set foot on earth, multiple times in fact, but instead of establishing first contact or anything they just made ants steal batteries and coke cans for them. You go outside and find one commanding a small army to take down a chihuahua. That’s pikmin.

#pikmin 4 #pikmin #im on the fence about pik4’s new setting. I personally like the lonely feel of the wilderness from the previous games? #but at the same time the urban setting is pretty cute. and the idea of humans just having been alive this whole time is so funny #im thinking it’s probably going to be a ‘theyre long gone but their buildings still remain’ situation but can you IMAGINE?? #if they really were still around my god #do the humans know about olimar? the drake crew? the rescue corps?? #do the humans know about the pikmin? #do children like to play with pikmin - have them build tiny cities out of twigs and pebbles? #can I gently feed the pikmin bread crumbs. I want to. I want to hold them and love them. #citrussodatalks

Hmmm just gonna spit this headcanon out in text post form since A. I don't think I could exposit it well enough in image form and B. It's not actually textually/thematically substantiated and I don't like actually staking my stuff on just vibes alone*

But anyway. I'd say it's pretty evident that all the islanders forgot their names, right? King obviously. Because why the hell else would he do that, but also Siffrin No Middle Names No Last Name.

They're 'pretty sure' they've 'always' been 'Just Siffrin' 'as long as they can remember'. It's a pretty cruel twist of the knife to say that they don't even get to keep their birth name as a memento, which is why I'm saying as such.

My utterly unsubstantiated claim is I think it'd be cute to say that Sisyphus *is* the name Siffrin initially picked, assuming the myth of King Sisyphus is recontextualised as idk, just a play or something in the setting. But I like the idea of Siffrin going 'oh shit 🫵 he's just like me fr' at a tortured fictional character long before the irony kicks in.

As for how Sisyphus -> Siffrin. I think that chronic mumbler and emotional doormat Sif just did not correct people who misheard the name during their time travelling, and went through enough places with incompatible phonologies (pronounceable sounds in the language) without ever really writing it down that it just got kinda. Changed until it was unrecognisable, and Siffrin just went with it until the earlier pronunciations slipped out of their swiss-cheese brain. And they just kinda don't remember any of that.

Also, something something the horrid realisation that Siffrin also named themselves after a King. Just not as blatantly.

*(though I think there's something here about Siffrin, a guy from a belief system that seems to thoroughly disincentivise autonomy and self-motivated choice continuously having their hand forced to make changes/choices they don't want but have no choice but to... It's not solid enough to really back this up tbh, but it informs it.)

Anyway.

#theres also something one of my french-speaker friends said about siffrin's official pronounciation being the feminine way to pronounce -in? #which i dont know enough about to really corroborate and theyre busyyyy and havent started the game yet so i cant really ask #im sure someone else has already voiced this easy-to-come-up-with headcanon anyway but just in case nobody has i decided to post it #isat #isat spoilers #in stars and time #isat siffrin #isat loop #i also personally picture sif (and loop especially) being more hostile to the concept of changing themselves after The Encounter #both of them being big grudge-holders and that 'want' to control your own destiny being clearly against how they interpret the universe #as for whether they should be so hostile? probably not! but they appear to be anxious in fear of some kind of divine retribution should #they like. ever even dare to Want. and uh. well. that certainly went well for Loop. not sure they'd be gung-ho to do it again #so Loop being able to go 'oh well it wasn't my REAL name' as a salve for having to make a new identity AGAIN.... #while sif is explicitly clinging to it as an anchor for Who They Are If Nothing Else.. they can upset each other and also mirabelle i think #lucabytetalks

One of the details I love about both Capt. Three and Eight's Splatoon 3 designs is that they have multi-colored tentacles. From what I can assume, as teenagers Inklings and Octolings' tentacles are primarily a single-color (usually with a gradient from light to dark):

But as they reach adulthood, the ends of their tentacles can be an entirely different color than the base:

The idol characters have always been depicted with two-tone tentacles, so now that Three and Eight are in their late teens/early twenties (older than the Squid Sisters were in Splat 1 btw) they get to have that too, I just think that's really neat.

Also Eight has colored fingers now, idk if it's biological or just fashion (I actually lean towards the former considering they change with the secondary ink color) but it's a really cool design choice regardless.

#also side note but looking through art in the different games #callie and maries secondary colors have actually gotten more prominent over time #like in splat 1 it was basically only the very tips that were pink/green #but in splat 3 its waaay more #which would make sense considering theyre now in their mid-twenties #splatoon 3 #agent 3 #captain 3 #agent 8

is that so

#ace attorney #i dont think nrmt is there ^ yet with where im at in the games #so for now all my nrmt fanart is like a little pocket dimension where theyve all overcome their darkest times and also grown into themselves #just a little more than theyre at rn #like a post canon but i dont know where canon actually ends up right now so thats what i want to happen later. #theres more drawings i did alongside this one but ur gonna have to dig for my priv priv twitter to find them sorry i just liked this one #enough to post it here #holds out my hand. lets be self indulgent together

My favourite hc ever will be andreil buying matching racquets in their final year, and when Neil goes pro it's takes a minute for people to realise his new racquet matches andrews new racquet and everytime they have to get replacements they always always match and then some exy fan makes a video about the minyard-josten rivalry and the matching armbands and gear and then, then it all blows up and Kevin calls to yell at them from Europe because "can't you be subtle when you're on two different teams, for fucks sake" and andreil are just sitting there smug and holding hands bc at least no one realised they also wear matching shoes like the great big dorks they are

#andreil #aftg #all for the game #the foxhole court #the kings men #the raven king #all for the gay #andrew minyard #neil josten #kevin day #nicky hemmick #aaron minyard #dan wilds #matt boyd #renee walker #allison reynolds #seth gordon #like ik goalie racquest would look different but liiiike imagine them being all color coordinated and shit playing on two opposing teams #the only reason they never accidentally switch racquets is bc andrews is Heavy #like i think andrew notices that neil likes the matching armbands and the next time theyre in exites he just chooses 2 racquets for them #and neil gets all happy and shit and then when andrew graduates and leaves neil can look at his racquet and see it for the promise it is #idk #matching andreil racquets what more do you want

The best part of Will saying he wants forever with Mike so blatantly is that he isn't the one who brought it up, Mike was. In an act of projection he asks "What did you think? That we'd actually get to be together forever? When we're both boys?" and will says yes. He says yes, and Mike immediately regrets it.

#not even going to get into how earth shattering it was for me to make that reference #i didnt even realize that's what i was writing until halfway through #he said yes. he said yes. (it was the worst thing I'd ever done.) #accidentally implying he doesnt also want forever with Will #gonna scream #this is so stupid dkndnd i just woke up #byler #will byers #byeler #mike wheeler #stranger things #mike wheeler is gay #AND KNOWING THAT WHEN WILL MOVED ALL MIKE DID FOR A FULL MONTH WAS LOCK HIMSELF IN HIS BASEMENT AND PLAY VIDEO GAMES #LIKE #IT CANNOT GET MORE BLATANT THAN THIS #will 'i want forever with you' byers and el 'hes my first boyfriend' hopper #also imagine how much white hot rage mike felt when will said 'you called maybe a couple times' when mike called CONSTANTLY- #and will NEVER called him back #i hate the roller rink scenes they both think that theyre being ignored and dropped by the person who they care about most in the world #& the idea that once mike finally got on the right page and understood what the painting & the speech meant. WILL flew to a whole diff BOOK #mikes like holy shit he loves me this is all ive ever wanted & then wills over here like TELL HER YOU LOVE HER CAUSE YOU'LL NEVER LOVE ME #mike 'I thought my wants were something i had to grow out of. i thought i you would never love me the way i do you so i tried to move on- #but YOU want ME?? YOU want forever with ME? Then i want it with you.'

quick lil mineru scribble that i don't think i'll be finishing, but!! i figured she'd be cute enough to post while i chip away at other stuff at least 👍

Deeply deeply funny to me how literally every interaction bingqiu has scans as some type of an insane sex game except for when they actually have sex which is unbelievably fumbling, awkward, and unsexy without fail

#svsss #bingqiu #aphelion.txt #luo binghe #shen qingqiu #that post thats like 'ur out here writing domestic fluff for a pair that would have sex by playing mind games w each other fully clothed' #thats bingqiu to me except they do the domestic fluff also #theyre out here all day every day (lovingly.) manipulating each others emotions like 5d chess #and that is one million times sexier than when they actually have sex

Headcanon i've had for a while now about how minecraft hack clients could work, similar to the headcanons about how in game chat would work.

Just sort of an explanation with some examples, obviously some hacks are pretty hard to translate into a physical thing, but i tried my best. :)

Full text can also be found under read more.

"Hack Clients" are illegal modifications of a player's attire (i.e. player skin) in order to give them an unfair advantage. The visibility of a "Hack Client" modification depends on the server a player is on. On servers such as 2b2t, these modifications are obviously visible while on stricter servers, such as Hypixel, hackers will try to be more subtle, often hiding modifications underneath clothing.

Eyewear: Modified for use of visual hacks (i.e. x-ray. fullbright, esp, etc.), the easiest to hide from moderators.

Footwear: Modified for use of hacks such as Anti-Knockback, High-jump, and other similar hacks.

Mechanical Braces: Used to allow players to move with otherwise impossible reaction times, most often used for PVP. Completely illegal on most servers, players will attempt to hide them underneath clothing but often fail.

Leg brace: Used for b-hopping.

Arm brace: Used for kill-aura and aimbot.
