Mikhail and Vitali were inseparable; when they weren’t studying or getting into fights, they would hang out at Mikhail’s place to smoke and get drunk on cheap rum and vodka, to then pass out in each other’s arms and sleep most of the next day away. They promised each other— no matter what would happen— they would never leave each other’s side. Yet after starting university and college respectively, they did not see each other for a little over six years, leaving them both heartbroken and wondering what went wrong.

#cp2077 #edit:mikhail #edit:vitali #nuclearocs #nuclearedits #happy birthday to my two boys :^) yes they share the same birthday what about it. it's essential to their whole. thing #whatever it is. they're like soulmates but also they are NOT dating. i need you to understand that. because it makes everything funnier #you guys remember when i first introduced them here and people thought they were together. good times honestly #but yeah no vitali is officially dating vincent and mikhail is just their eternal third wheel. their relationship can't be defined #they also reunite of course but i LOVE emphasizing their grief. they didn't know they'd ever see each other again #and they've known each other since around age 12. imagine spending almost every day with someone who CHOSE you #and then suddenly not seeing them or talking to them for YEARS. what do you do with that grief. that pain #sure they've found each other back but what do you do with that. where do you put it. it makes me insane!!! #they both were so lonely in their own way. vitali getting lost in vices and crowds but ending up all by himself at the end of the day #and mikhail drowning himself in studying and pushing himself far over his limits just to distract himself from the hole in his chest #night city in my head is much more massive than what it feels like in game. like yeah it feels big but not. BIG big #and i think mikhail and vitali's story and them losing contact while only a district apart really emphasizes how like #how HUGE this city is not only in terms of actual land it covers but also just. how overwhelming it is. how it can swallow you whole #anyway if you've read all of this hi. wanna make out

i love sonic boom (games)

#my unpopular opinion- boom games > boom show #i was only interested in s1 of sonic boom. then it lost me. #in all honesty i did not like most of the show #i never watched all of season 2 fully. i ended up just watching clips or skipping through 😔 #but i enjoyed it's comedy. not everything landed tho #i am no good at explaining why but the boom games i just love more. i played them all #tho i remember being a little let down by rol's story the first time.but then it did really grow on me and i came around to it. #idk maybe ijust love the games for it's potential and earnesty. #when i was the boom guy i felt like a little imposter when everyone kept talking about the show in my notes #little did anyone know it was always the games that inspired me #with a little of the shows humour. so i could def see why it was assumed lol #WAIT i loved the comics too. nice and cute art

you guessed it it's more holly hollowtones fanart! the slarpg finale was truly wonderful and now i am initiating 'TACTICAL LESBIAN BLAST' and posting all of my fanart from those streams.

additionally there is also some other stuff from other streams but. slarpg specifically does something to my brain, so there's a Lot of it

#hollowtones #my art #sketch #slarpg #anonymouspuzzler #long post #man i didnt even do this much art for her kirby and the forgotten land streams and i loved that game a lot too. whadda hell #please play super lesbian animal rpg #its really good i promise #also if you havent already and you are a slarpg fan. check out my previous slarpg art post i just posted earlier today. i spent months on i

some of my favorite of Val Biro's Marvelous Land of Oz illustrations. i especially like the tin woodman's little colander hat.

#fun game someone who hasn’t read marvelous land piece together the story from these illustrations alone #scanned these because I actually had never heard of this version until I I picked up a library copy #It was surreal re-reading a story I've read a bunch of times but suddenly with slightly different illustrations #love it when artists illustrate the scene where tinman and scarecrow reunite #finding vintage wizard of oz media that I've never seen before is rare but gives me so much serotonin #the wizard of oz #the marvelous land of oz #oz books #tippetarius #general jinjur #the tin woodman #jack pumpkinhead #the scarecrow of oz #Glinda the good #sawhorse

THE BEST OF SHENKO 1/?

The end of the world has a way of reminding you of all the things you forgot to say do. Mass Effect: Legendary Edition (2021)

#mira makes gifs ✨ #kaidan alenko #sophie shepard #EDI #shenko #fshenko #mass effect #mass effect legendary edition #dailygaming #OTP: you're real enough for me #i learned i am physically incapable of creating less than like 20 gifs at a time #but shenko stonks are up right now!! #gif’ing my favorite bisexuals gives me joy 🥹 #even though ME2 is dry as shit for shenko content like it’s literally the sahara desert #like a whole ass 10 minutes max of cutscenes between shep and kaidan like come on #like 2 minutes in the prologue and like 8 minutes of cutscenes on horizon #and then an email and looking at the picture in your cabin before the suicide mission #i'm so sorry y'all ME2 shenko canon is absolute shit (besides kaidan being rightfully angry on horizon) which is why we ✨ignore it✨ 🥰 #but i rant about ME2 VS treatment too much so i will not write another essay about it in the tags #i will say the EDI line isn't the exact quote from the game but i think about it a lot tbf #same with the quote i borrowed from anderson too lmao (which is also a tiny bit paraphrased) #i just love EDI asking shep for relationship advice when you get to follow shep and kaidan's relationship/struggles across 3 games #and anderson's quote about all the things you forgot to do in relation kahlee to is just *chef's kiss* when you think about shenko #like whether it starts in ME1 or ME3 shenko has some really fantastic moments across the series #two characters with strong morals who realize that they're falling in love and literally start to become each other's strength?? #their soft place to land?? their support when they need it?? shenko will always have my heart #also the shenko quotes you get are the most fire thing in the world #you're real enough for me?? you make me feel human?? i want to be your strength- your soft place to land?? shenko you will always be famous #I FORGOT IM GONNA FIGHT LIKE HELL FOR THE CHANCE TO HOLD YOU AGAIN TOO LIKE?? #but i’ll stop ranting now bc i do that wayyy to much in my tags lol. have a good day wherever you are! <3

I’m so invested in wizard101 and its denizens that it has got me researching actual irl science and engineering so i could depict magic better

#most of the text is under the tags yet again lmao whoops #I’m out here looking up electrocultural agriculture bc i wanna draw my YW revisiting Khrysalis after Morganthes defeat #helping reverse the mass deforestation and crystallisation caused by the umbra legion #mainly bc I don’t like how fast the game moved on from us saving Khrysalis to merle immediately telling us we r graduating #let there be at least some period of time in between jdjfkg #montage of my wizzy taking the time to learn theurgy under moolinda #despite being a storm wizard #and researching how to heal the land and plant new growth #to use her storm magic to stimulate the plants to grow faster and stronger #bc smth smth electrical currents promote plant development and helps them grow more fruit #and teach whatever shes learned to any other spellbinders and farmers in Khrysalis. bc what good is knowledge if it is not shared #maybe rope professor balestorm into this too with all the experiments. wait who am i kidding he would love that and immediately #(or hop. ha) to help experiment. rope the other diviners into this whole project too actually. get those participation credits kids #w101 #wizard101

Something that really bothers me about the rose coloured glasses vis a vis tellius and fe fans (ESPECIALLY from 3h fans who learned about tellius later) is that many like soren purely because of his main ship (i mean i like ikesoren too but come the fuck on) and jokingly characterise soren as a stereotypical nasty mean limp wristed sarcastic gay man instead of a deeply flawed branded angry at the world and definitely trauma bonded to ike, but micaiah is still absolutely getting raked over the coals over the blood pact and not being ike’s fangirl

Well,

Jokes often involve flanderisation, so Soren being flanderised to oblivion when people joke about him isn't something I really care about, but maybe that's because I'm not really fond of Soren to begin with lol

What annoys me more is when some people try to rationalise Soren's anger and backstory by either pointing at Almedha or Deghinsea being responsible for everything, and I'm like, what.the.fuck?

Almedha's just, idk, I won't call it sexism, but damn - that woman loves her son who is the only reason why she hasn't completely lost her mind over 1/losing her powers 2/being casted away like trash by her "BF" 3/being rejected by her dad 4/thinking her brother was tortured and abused to death because of her actions 5/being separated from her beloved child.

Deghinsea being "uwu bad bcs he's the reason why brandeds are rejected by both beorcs and laguz" is another take I really am not fond of, and iirc I wrote a post earlier this year about it? But to some people who buy the "Crusts BaD" as the reason why Fodlan sucks, I guess they need to have someone to name and pill all of the world's nonsense rather than, well, in Tellius' case, realise that the worldbulding and the lore really sucks, to the point where the duology touted as the most "against racism" of the franchise, is pretty much way more racist than anything Tru Piss can throw us (yes, because in Tru Piss we have characters rejecting coexistence, in Tellius, it's the world mechanics - whenever a Beorc and a Laguz coexist too much, the Laguz dies...).

As for Miccy,

Just like, imo, Soren gains some "new" attention and "uwu excuses for why he's being a snarky jerk at times", Miccy used to be bashed when FE10 was released (with all the Mary Sue accusation being thrown around!) because she was written to be a sort of foil/antagonist to Ike, and when the party reunited, she was demoted to a "soul-jar" role, let it be regarding the greater plot, or, even, her own backstory!

TBH, for people who didn't play FE10, if Ike is the bestest thing since melted cheese, Miccy, who opposes him, must be BaD and so you can pile everything you don't like on her, hoping to see it stick.

Or even worse, I've seen posts here and there comparing Miccy to Supreme Leader and how misunderstood uwu she is, which is the worst insult poor Miccy ever received since FE10 came out rofl

#2goldensnitches #do you want to kill me friend lol #once upon a time discussions about soren and miccy were very animated lol #anyways i still don't like how some part of the fandom tries to uwu him #he is a character with flaws that sure are never called out in the game and by the main character but #they exist #and to uwu them away is imo a disservice and not a good reading on him #'but his backstory sad uwus' Sephiran also has a crapton of sad uwus for his backstory #and yet the game chews him out about his plans to destroy the world because hey fuck off #it's not fair to condemn the world and everyone who lives in it for your suffering #It's sort of hilarious because sometimes I wonder if Miccy wasn't also written as a Soren foil #Miccy is the one who doesn't like when Beorc call Laguz names #she lives in racist land and knows she has to hide else she'll die too #but she still came to care about the people who live here #she gets to talk to Vika who feels weirded out by her being a branded and yet they agree to continue talking/being friends despite it #Miccy never insults Rafiel calling him a half beast #Soren follows Ike and his lead but Miccy has to take the lead despite wanting to follow Pelleas at first #tfw we know more about Soren's backstory even after being kicked away from Daein than Miccy's lol #granted I loved what FE10 with Almedha when you see that some of his worst traits/flaws are actually shared by his mom lol #tl;dr : a Soren raised by his mom would have been even more of a jerk than the one we got #i have a lot of feelings about how Miccy was treated in FE10 which in turn sort of explains the vitriol she received from the fandom #but that's for another post lol else it'll be too long #basically FE10 is more Ike v.2 than a game where Miccy is the Lord

They called me the Kirby king back in college

#artists on tumblr #kirby #kirby and the forgotten land #kirby superstar ultra #val scribbles #ive beaten so many kirby games im obsessed #i love him #please #i love kirby #kirby is so good #we shoud all be more like kirby #i say this knowing the lore

i think i've probably already posted about this but if i listen to the waloed theme music when i'm feeling a little more tender than usual it makes me a lil teary

#i'm not even sure why really #it's just so beautiful and really matches the desolate and ruined landscape of waloed #other than Away i think it's my favorite from the soundtrack #but the good thing about this is that if i listen to Away right after it then it usually cancels out all the tender feels #i think 3rd and 4th on my favorites list would be the lion & the hare and then land of eikons #this is a list no one asked for it's ok #love this stupid game

can we talk about the death of the minigame. very closely related with the death of the touchscreen handheld console. the ds was the golden era for minigames and i'll miss her forever

#do you remember. when in pokemon games. you had shit you could do for fun. like the sandwich and curry thing is not fun #i miss contests. i miss contests so bad. pokestar studios. pokeathelon or whatever it was called #i love all the minigames in professor layton too.... especially the tea one. when new world of steam comes out they better give me minigames #and twewy. tin pin is GOATED and anyone who disagrees i'll send you my address and we can come fight it out like adults #i think i play a good variety of switch games and the only one with decent minigames i've found so far is kirby forgotten land.... #where's the whimsy in this world...... minigames save me. save me minigames

Just remembered the book series I use to obsess over as a child

#the lunar chronicles #the school for good and evil #red queen series #the land of stories #if you can’t tell I loved fantasy #warrior cats #the maze runner #the hunger games #not a series per say but any Shannon hale or e.d. baker book oml…..

Anyone got any kdrama recs for me? (Preferably not older than 2019 bc older kdramas are more cringy kdnfkfj)

#I recently watched: #crash landing on you: liked it but the ending ruined it for me. hated the ending. #marry my husband: mostly liked it but the final third was a bit dumb. #mr. queen: obsessed. i pretend the ending happened differently. #gyeongseong creature: it was really good. looking forward to s2 #death's game: it was CRAZY! Loved it. #bloodhound: I ADORED THIS SHOW😭 #whats wrong with security kim: it was fun to watch but a bit too cringe (it was from 2018 tho i think) #bad and crazy: it was really fun. loved it. #what else.... #if u wish upon me: eh... it was slow but nice. #ALMOSR FORGOT #the worst of evil: goddamit i need to rewatch it... best show ive seen in a while

Played fuckin D1 rugby players today (we are D4 for the record) and for the entire 30 minutes I was on the field they did not score. Neither did we, mind, but while I was with the pack those fucks did not score and that's what matters.

#i landed in two inches of frigid standing water at least three times. did about twelve back to back scrums. dunno the tackle #number there were many. one dog pile that fucked my neck a bit because that blond bitch diagonal from me kept wrenching #i played with the starting pack and im very proud of everyone. i could have done better but I didn't go into it with the best headspace #had some good convo with coaches tho about the pack and our set up and tbh they felt i did solid for my game time so maybe its me #being hard on myself #got a lovely drunken ode of admiration from the fierce side captain which had me ready to cry #rest of my squad is out partying with the dc team. i am soaking these old bones and hoping they get home safe #im the sober dd as always this season #brunch at 11 tomorrow 🥂. Saturday is a Rugby really means your weekend is never your own lmao

thank god for indie devs making like tiny little maximum 10 megabyte freeware games on itchio keeping the art of filesize optimization alive. ASSET REUSE FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

#im watching a video about wario land music -> 'the bizarre music and sound design of wario land 4' by geno7 #good video so far! i like this guys stuff. he talked a bit about how they did some of the sound effects for warios voice #a very like. chopped and remixed sample style of doing his vocal lines. which is very cool 1) because it saves a bit of #precious space on that gba cartridge BUT ALSO 2) it just sounds cool and interesting stylistically #and man sometimes trying to keep a file size down really does give way for some really interesting stuff #on my own personal interests in games i ADORE rpg makers rtp and how people can find creative uses for it #i love that a bunch of games can draw from the same asset pool as one install on ur computer #no bloating your hardrive with a bunch of copies of the same assets - its just already here! #and from a developers perspective i love when they reuse old assets from other games in new weird ways #some small visual novel companies will reuse backgrounds and other assets #altho i dont mind a bit of bloat with VNs since a big draw can be the big pretty images and big pretty sounds #but its still cool when people find ways to get creative with space saving. and from a players perspective its also nice #space is cheap nowadays. but its not Free. we can swallow terabytes whole with micro sds and everything #but a lot of players dont get the chance or ability to upgrade their internal memory that often. so i think being considerate of filesize i #very important. and thats not even getting into the download bandwidth limits - a lot of people all across north america can only get like #internet from 1 provider and that 1 provider often likes to upcharge and limit shit because they can #we might live in a future where a lot of powerful technology exists. but access to that tech is another story #so remember the filesize. remember the filesize. #dies in your arms
